Ivy was cold! But then again clearly there was a side of CeCe that she knew but no one else bothered to. I feel cheated I wanted to know the CeCe that was friends with her butcher and enjoyed a good ol' Irish pint. Oh CeCe, I will miss you. But one thing about the apartment. Didn't Lily and Bart buy that while they were married? Or did Lily just finish construction on it and they moved in? Either way, its not 100% clear.

About the preview. I KNEW IT. I had a feeling this was coming. Dan and Blair are friends. They've never had any chemistry in the previous seasons despite what the producers said. I dont know about Chuck and Blair, I think even the actors are sick of playing the same scene over and over again. I knew I'm sick of watching it. "Oh Chuck I love you but I can't be with you"! Basically, I hate Blair's love life and wish that it wasn't the focus of the show. It's saved them in the past but now its making Blair look flighty and weak. She's basically going from one guy to the next and weeping about all of them.

@Where's Waldorf Powerful? She's not powerful, she'll just be a whiny, annoying little girl making up pathetic excuses and then more unnecessary, contrived drama ensues...rinse, lather, and repeat.
@chairsupportert That's too bad.
@moe Leave it to the writers to mess things up.
@susan The writers won't explain it, it's forgotten like other subplots like Scott or Blair's dead baby.

Does anyone feel that Chuck and Blair may reignite when they need to work together to help Georgina against the backlash of people knowing she is gossip girl? She said that with Chuck and Blair on her side she's more powerful than ever. I think that could bring the spark in B back too. Or maybe when B goes on her powerful woman path. There is nothing more entertaining than a B that has her mind set on a goal.

1. Lily and Rufus being kicked out. Oh my...I smell a major take down comming. I wouldn't want to cross Lily.
2. Yes. but I thought it would have been more natural to happen last season. It seems stupid having Blair telling Chuck she love's him, but is not in love with him (at this time)after telling him the opposite 2 weeks ago
3.Nola
4.I hope so )but probably not....I do think she will use the information gathered to get NJBC to help her and Lily take down Ivy.
5.Blair annulment....anything with her this season is a forced and stupid plot hole see # 2 (at this time) nothin like telling us next season I will be in love with you. lol
6. Ivy getting the money
7. yes.

1. dan and G at the bar
2. yes the writers built them up for ever
3. dair cuz any nate relationships that aren't with serena aren't hot. i think is clearly the best looking guy on the CW but he and serena are the hottest
4. no serenas way more exciting than that the writers need to give her a plotline/new boyfriend i like when she dates new guys a lot
5. estee=crazy this is GG the phone thing=dumb
6. jack saving chucks life isnt that suprising (why did a family member have to donate blood isn't that what blood banks are for?) i expected chives to get the money but i was shocked that CeCe didnt leave any to her real family and its not their fault they werent with her. she didnt want to tell them! william as lolas dad was a total WTF moment
7. im leaning towards yes she did something
chuck and serena hook up to make blair/nate jealous. nate and serena realize they love eachother and get together lola ivy carol die vanessa comes back and gets with dan Trifecta FTW

@kavern Yes but CeCe is a Rhodes. Lily didn't get all her money from being a Rhodes. She didn't lose everything. The woman has a place to stay.

@Meep the house from the hamptons was Cece's so that means it also belongs to ivy too. lily and rufus could stay in the hotel from the first season.
i have a feeling ivy's going to lose it all. if lily can send an innocent man to prison she can definitely send a con artist to prison.

@QueenB Lots of things don't make sense. Chuck went to see her at the end of the episode, I'm sure he would have offered a suite at the hotel and don't tell me the vdw's don't own a little place out in the Hamptons.

ivy's really only wants a family that i think is clearly one of the things that motivates her to stay but when she realized how good it was to be part of that world she become enamored to it and now wants to stay and live with the glitz and glamor that comes with it.

@kavern It's the writers having the characters do stupid things for the sake of drama.
@Where's Waldorf Seeing as how they had Blair basically stomp all over the relationship...they'll probably force some sort of contrivance knowing the writers and their incompetence.

@Queen B
Its true, Lily isn't poor. She has money from all her ex-husbands, including Bart Bass (the richest man in New York). Doesn't she have shares in Bass Industries too? Also she was left some of Cece's money. Her son is the richest man in Manhattan.

i don't get why ivy even sided with georgina.this might blow up on her face. G might be scheming against the UES but she's still part of that world, G is an insider and ivy is an outsider who happened to inherit a lot of money.
QueenB
February 28th, 2012 11:00 PM
Why is Lily so worried about where they'll go? They live in New York, there are hotels, Chuck owns one, she still has money, just not all of CeCe's money. Everything in the apartment belongs to her, including a lot of expensive art. Let's get real Ivy, you are no match for Lily. And throwing them out of the apartment is no way to win them over or take them down, which ever her agenda might be.

With Georgina choosing to send that laptop to S, there must be something quite tantalizing on there...wonder what it is..or are the writers just being ridiculous again. What is on the laptop will probably get her family out of the mess they are in with Ivy and CeCe's will
Where's Waldorf
February 28th, 2012 10:57 PM
7. Did Ivy hasten Cece's death or at least manipulate her will?
No way. I think she has a good heart and she made a huge mistake in committing fraud. Cece knew all her daughters secrets and I remember her as a cunning woman.
BONUS: Share your prediction(s) for April and May.
I think Dair is going to continue for a little but eventually the excitement of exploring those feelings will wear off and they will see that they're just good friends. Hopefully Blair and Serena get back on track with their careers. I think Blair will have an episode where she's just honest about everything that has happened to her. I think Chuck is going to uncover some secrets with the help of Jack.

5. Biggest plot hole: Estee's annulling of Blair's marriage, Dan leaving his phone on the table, or the front of Georgina's dress?
The annulling of Blair's marriage. It all seemed suss.
6. More shocking reveal: Jack having saved Chuck's life, Ivy getting all Cece's money, or William being Lola's dad?
Ivy getting all of Cece's money. I predicted the other two, I think I'm psychic.

1. What was your favorite quote or scene from the episode?
Definitely the Georgina and Blair scene towards the end. It felt like Gossip Girl again with the scheming and two powerful people making deals. I must admit Georgina and Blair's scenes together are so fun to watch because although Blair isn't a total psycho, she does share a love of scheming with Georgina and they're both very clever.
2. Dair: Can you believe the writers are actually going there?
Yes I can because of the promo and because there has been a buildup. It made sense. Just hope that future Chair isn't sacrificed.
3. Hotter couple: Dair or Nola?
Nola. Their make out session on the bed got my blood going. I felt nothing watching Dair.
4. Will Serena be the new Gossip Girl?
Cannot possibly see that happening, at least not easily.
