Loved everyone's story last night! I feel like that there is starting to be more to Wade and Zoe than just a "Friends with benefits" situation. I love Crazy Earl and hope we get to see more of him. Sal also at the start of the episode was funny. I loved when he told Zoe last season that she was like a "Doctor detective" I started out liking Ruby but after last night not so much! I miss Shelly too, where is she?

Really enjoyed last night episode.I love Crazy Earl, hope we get to see more of him this season. Sal as well at the start of the episode was funny too. I love when he told Zoe last season that she was like " A doctor detective" Love the Brick/George story, Lemom and Annabeth and Tom. As someone else said, I think that last night we saw that Zoe and Wade could be more than just a freinds with benefits type thing. Don't like Ruby! Miss Shelly and Rose!

SPOILER -
This is for the Halloween episode but as soon as I read it I thought - need to share that with all the HoD lovers in TVFanatic :)
"Zoe (Rachel Bilson) begins to notice some odd occurrences happening in her home. She is shocked to discover that the culprit is George (Scott Porter), but she soon realizes that he may have a sleepwalking issue. Concerned for his safety, they decide to conduct a sleep study, forcing her to cancel her big plans with Wade (Wilson Bethel)" ....as soon as I saw "big plans" a smile came over my face :D ...maybe they were trying to go on a first date or one of them has invited the other as their date to a Halloween event? Hopefully they still get to it but I hope the writers also don't lose the hilarious and yet sweet opportunities their first date could have :)

@Marisa - Personally, I feel they did far too good a job showing that Lemon and Lavon were very important to each other at a time in their lives when they (especially Lemon) needed someone and now they've realized it wasn't meant to be more and they've both moved on. I'd much rather see them be friends than go backwards in characterization and try to force something between them again. They never really had much romantic chemistry, IMO, anyway.
Plus...I'm still rooting for Lavon/Tancy. And for Lemon to grow as an independent character and not be defined by which guy she's dating.

As for Lemon and Lavon, I don't agree with you T, I think they never really had their chance since Lemon was with George. Now that she's single and evolving, who knows?

Like I said yesterday I hate Ruby but I realised she has a purpose on this show. Now that Lemon is evolving and becoming more and more likeable, they need a new "villain". Remember on Glee when Sue started being nice? They haven't replaced her by a new villain and it made the show less interesting. So as much as I hate Ruby, I think it's probably better she stays.

I didn't mind at all about Lemon "backsliding" from being prepared to face the world on her own to being upset about George dating someone else before she did. Isn't that totally normal right after getting out of a very long relationship, especially one that was supposed to lead to marriage? One day you are in control and think ending it was for the best, the next day you feel insecure and left behind. ESPECIALLY in a small town, where everybody knows your business!
Personally, I found the idea of Lemon going to live on a houseboat hard to believe. Like she would tolerate the bathroom situation??

I really dont want a Lemon/Lavon romance. I just dont. I'm hoping lemon & George eventually work it out. I like them together. George doesn't deserve her just yet though.
Wade & Zoe, i hope slow things down soon. Love them. I just don't want too much too soon. I like seeing them work together. I hope Wade does still open his own bar or take over the Rammer Jammer.
Overall GREAT episode:)
For once there were moments where I found Lemon likeable, when she was on the house boat and when she went to ask Lavon if he wanted a campaign manager and when she realized forcing yourself to like someone was not a way to get over some one. (another lesson/meaning)
Side note: I think that Scott Porter did not get heavier I think he just bulked up over the summer as he has huge biceps this season.
This was probably one of my favorite episodes in a long long time! Maybe even ever.
I liked how there was meaning in this episode: Moving on from heartbreak, not living in the past and perhaps the most important meaning came from Wade and telling Zoe that her life may not be what she had planned but if she gives it a chance it could be better than she had ever imagined. (or at least that is what I got from his speech to her).
I have been team Wade since episode 1 but I was a little annoyed last season how immature they made him and Zoe trying to one up each other and also he was mean to her at times but I have to say I love him again this season as much as I did the first half of last.
I also love that the end we had a huge step for Woe/Zade fans!
I also really liked the moment with George and Brick that brought a tear to my eye.

While I was nodding along with Wade with his speech to Zoe (it was what I was thinking all last season, as most closely evidenced by the George v. Wade thing George is who she thinks she wants and Wade is who she needs) but I also was thinking, well, that is probably the part of her character bio that lists her major flaw/obstacle.
I really like they are making Anna Beth and Lemon's relationship more that of equals than it was last season.

(Part 2)I loved the scene with Brick & George. I cheered Brick on the entire time he ruined George's date, and I sniffled when they admitted they were like father/son and George broke Brick's heart too. Even the scene at the end with George and Zoe was fine. THIS is how I like George, a character who has relationships and history with multiple people in Bluebell and is emotionally real and flawed, and can have a good FRIENDSHIP with Zoe.
I loathe Ruby and want her gone. I don't care how fun her meanness supposedly is. It doesn't matter how much she "moves the plot forward" if I can't bear or bother watching any scenes with her. But the idea of Lemon and Lavon working together certainly sounds fun, as long as they don't go back to their love issues, which never really worked, I feel.
Annabeth and Tom are two of the best side characters ever.

Fantastic episode! My only complaint is once again the balance of how characters are represented. We had a more mature Wade & Zoe this episode...for what few minutes they were actually onscreen. I prefer this show to be an ensemble, but good grief.
Wade's speech is what I feel is the absolute theme of this entire show - Zoe finding happiness once she realizes her "dream" life is not real and her "real" life is actually pretty dreamy. And that's why I believe W/Z can and should end up together. He's everything she never thought she'd ever want; George is the guy she thinks she should be with.

(continued) As for Ruby, I'm with Drea - I think it's clear that she's a new character that's meant to be loathed and she's doing a great job at it, lol. Also Lemon and Anna-Beth on the houseboat was so sweet. I know the reviewer of this show continues to talk about liking the "lighter approach" to this season but I have to disagree - there needs to be a balance and they did that perfectly in this current episode.

Like last week, I LOVED this episode! Bethel's character Wade is finally starting to get written like he was last season. There's way too many YouTube video's out there with Wade showing us on multiple occasions that he's a good guy (sings his alcoholic father off the roof once a month, has dreams he wants to accomplish, the longing looks and sweet gestures toward Zoe, etc.) to be written the way he was in ep one. Anyway, loved this episode from the moment Zoe clarified to Lavon she wouldn't represent her time of the month with an 'A' on the calendar :D ... to Zoe and Wade visiting his dad - BEST SCENE!!
Loved Wade's speech to Zoe too - so well said and something he helped Zoe click onto this ep. Their whole storyline tonight was great in my opinion. I read a spoiler though that Zoe and Wade do the same sort of thing that George and Lemon did tonight (jealousy/dates) so I'm not sure about that but hopefully it will lead Zoe to clicking onto how much she clearly really likes Wade.

Like/loath Iam not impressed by Ruby. Loved Wade (as always)...Zoey better not hurt him. Loved Earl... I think he may be sick. I also loved the scene with Zoey and Tom...Lemon and Annebeth...Iam not feeling George yet. This is what makes the show so loveable and charming...not the best friends fighting over one girl or (Zoey) chasting about another woman's man - the Gossip Girl CRAP. HOD is a feel good show with a little drama to spice things up and I like that - something different.

1) nice episode gave 5 star because in comparison to the other series out atm this is an A+.
2) ruby's character isn't meant to be loved she's meant to be loathed! but tbf you can't blame her, she's heartbroken and secretly wants Lavon back. goodness knows what she'll do when she finds out about lemon and lavon....
3) WADE AND ZOE at last we are progressing! i knew wade backed down because of george being in the picture! and i agree with lemon why i george moving on so quick. this is why i say zoe should forget him n focus on wade. wade will forever come to her rescue and be the helping hand she so desperately needs! george is too easily swayed and doesn't seem to favour loyalties.
4) overall i just want wade and zoe to take it slow and eventually become a couple and remain that way. annabeth and lavon together, lemon and george i feel will eventually find a way but it will be lemon to say no...

happy that lemon is finally doing something other than whine and sit in her daddy's house, good for her. I'm actually starting to like her a bit. I do love grown up Wade, I hope he stays like this now that zoe did choose him (happiness) over george (mooning) for once.
Not a big fan of Ruby. I normally don't mind someone stirring up trouble but I would like to see another reason than: I want to beat you at everything and I"m taking revenge for letting me down all those years ago. That kinda makes me hate her, and not in a good way.

Good episode... Annabeth is a good friend. Loved Lavon, George and Brick's scenes. It was really good. Good acting. I hate Ruby. She thinks she can come in and just do what she wants. I hope she looses. Seriously. I like the actress, she was a hoot on Girlfriends. Very awesome but ugh I kinda like Lemon now... I hope Lemon and Lavon end up together.

What can you say about Wilson Bethel - from Tunnel Rats thru Y&R to this show he has really grown as an actor. Also the character is genuinely captivating.

Iam not FEELING Ruby, but, I LOVED, LOVED seeing mature character. I too love Annebeth. She and Lavone would be off the chain. I don't see Lemon and Lavone together..Lemon is too WHINY. Lemon needs to be reminded that it's 2012...stop dressing like an old maid. I wanted to know more about Shebly... cute/ natural southern charm. Add her to the csst...pair her pair her with Wade, George, whomever. Iam just SICK of the love triangle. I love Wade. (PERIOD). Where is Shelly!!!!!!!!!!

Also, I'm starting to hate Ruby more and more. Maybe because I don't like the actress. The fact that I'm a Jaime King fan made it easier to like Lemon even if she was the antagonist. I fear it's not gonna happen with Ruby... I too, wish Lemon will work on Lavon's campaign, can't wait to see that!

I had the same impression about Wade tonight, it felt like someone else. I didn't recognize him being so mature and wise. At the end of the episode it was the first time I felt actual chemistry between Wade and Zoe instead of just crazy sexual tension like usual.
Lemon: Oh, this is about George Tucker. Because he broke up with Tansy and you think Zeorge is inevitable. No, you don't? Why not? He's finally single. She's...
