I remember a while back that Annabeth was looking at Lavon and only backed off because she found out he and Lemon having a past. She was being a good friend. I like Annabeth and I like Lavon. I can actually ship this couple. That's only because I never really cared for the Lavon & Lemon pairing.
I think it will interesting to see how this plays out - afterall the two ladies are best friends.

Waste of time. This episode made no sense. I agree Wade should have gotten upset by that text message. George is okay but not with Zoey. Lemon is treating Shelby like George's mother treated her.

I love any episode where Zoe & Wade end up in a good place - they are my favorite TV couple. I had gotten to look forward to the bedroom scenes at the beginning or end or both because the total sexual magnetism is what got their relationship started so please don't loose that. Wade is such a hunk and his personality gets more complicated all the time. Now that Zoe and George are both with people who make them so much happier and more interesting, I think they can be a great story as friends. I like Tanzy lots, ditto Shelby, not sure yet about Lavon & Anabeth ? Still waiting to see what will happen with Lemon.

Oops, here's the rest :)
And even though we'll have to live through Zoe/George at some point to fully get rid of that fantasy, it is pretty clear that all these things that were being thrown out about Zoe never ending up with a low life bartender like Wade and necessarily ending up dumping him because they don't have enough in common are just meant to be dispoven later on. What kind of a message would it be to have it turn out that this is right and people from different walks of like or with different interests cannot work after we've seen Zoe and Wade complete each other so well in spite of that? That wouldn't fit either the tone of the show or the story we have been told since the beginning. If there is one thing I am not worried about, it's that no matter what happens in between it'll lead back to Zoe/Wade ultimatelly :) They are the heart of this show.

Yep, that episode was really meh. Nothing super funny, or interesting, or necessary, or touching - just OK. I think most of it felt really contrived because the writers wanted to address Zoe/George so that they could give their fans something to hold on to and at the same time close that door for now to focus on Zoe/Wade. I understand the idea, it was just badly written really because it felt like situations were forced in order to get that exposition out and nothing about this felt organic to me. And having this non-Zoe/George storyline come back when it's not really needed since it's clear to viewers that each are happy with their significant other just becomes annoying and boring. And please, can Zoe once defend her relationship with Wade with some passion? We all see how much she has started to fall for him, so a list of events to explain it is a bit underwhelming. I did like the way things are being set up for the rest of the season though, especially with Wade and the bar. And ev

I love HOD
But I guess the point of this stupid episode was to give us viewers the hint that Zoe and George are end game. And I wouldn´t be surprised if the "bad guys" end up to be Wade and his ex wife, that is at one pint they will realise that they still have feelings for each other blablabla which will eventually lead Z and G back to each other......

Much Like everyone else I was not a very big fan of this particular episode.I'm having a serious problem with the inconsistencies of the writing on HoD.
I think that they want to create a push and pull kind of scenario. Therefore, the "tension" is necessary in their eyes. However, it is completely unncesseary. I'm in agreement with some of the other posters that it seems very soap opera like.
I think the writers could have done so much with Zoe's story. The life you want or envision is not necessarily the life that will make you happy. Zoe is evidence of that. I just wish that we could see Zoe's evolving outside of a relationship. That doesn't have to define her and that seems to be the focal point of the show. It's a shame.
On another note, it was so uncomfortable to watch the retread with Zoe and George. I just feel like it's time to move on. Yes, Zoe and George like a few of the same things. Tansy said it best when she said that George is simply boring when he is around Z

Not one of my favorites, wished that they would've given us more Zade time, wished that Wade would've gotten a little more fired up when he got the text from Zoe telling him that Mrs Tucker had kidnapped them..I CAN'T stand Mrs Tucker by the way..I agree..please don't bring her back anytime soon..I also was a little nervous about Wade asking about Bartenders in NY...
Also wishing that HOD would just get renewed for a 3rd season already!

Now usually im a big fan of: if u cant say something nice just shutt the hell up. But i was also bitterly dissapointment in this episode, a first for me with Hart of Dixie. It just felt forced nothing new came out of Zoe & George on the boat i believe we were all aware that both of them are happy in their current relationshipps. Something i felt was covered in the previous episode when they ran into each other, as well as on numerous other occassions thus my feeling that everything concerning these 4 was redundant. I was happy to see more pf Annabeth and too hope that we get to see much mich more. And i too like Lemon way too much to be a annabeth/ levon shipped seems there is just too much pain that can be caused by such a match up.
The highlight at the end of the episode for me was though realizing that it took a season and a half for Hart of Dixie to dissapoint me which still makes this my all time favourite show

I've got to second (or rather, third of fourth!) the judgement that this episode was much too forced. George's mother's stunt, and the characters' reactions to it, simply stretched credibility to the breaking point. It was very bad. This episode actually made me re-evaluate whether I wanted to give HOD an hour of my precious time every week. And yeah, "old" Lemon's reappearance felt forced too. I liked that Annabeth had a story line, but NOT that there was a hint of her and Lavon getting together -- really, how many more obstacles are the writers going to throw up between Lemon and Lavon? And hasn't Lemon had enough bad breaks to deal with? This felt like drama for drama's sake. We can see that on any old soap opera.
I am actually shocked at the low rating for this episode! I actually really liked it. It made me glad I stuck with the show!
I think the George and Zoe admission about having liked eachother before and thinking they were meant to be but now not knowing if that is acutally right, was perfect! George and Zoe may have movies and some other things in common but I still do not think they are meant to be! I much prefer George and Tansy and Zoe and Wade.
The only thing I did not like was Lavon and Annabeth, that will destroy Lemon!

After season and a half of waiting we ( Zade fans, I apologize to all ZG fans ) deserve to see little more than what we're getting now, especially since we know their relationship will end at some point ( hopefully not permanently ).
As for the rest of the episode: loved Annabeth, Lemon so-so, Lavon has to cheer-up, hated George's mother... All in all, it was fine... I guess.

I can't say that I liked this episode. It's not because they revisited (and closed?) Zoe/George storyline, at least for a while. I almost cringed several times...and that doesn't happen often. I love that Zoe and Wade are together, but come on, people, show us something real there. I hate how Zoe insists on having to do what you don't like so you can make relationship work. How about finding a mutual ground ( other than bed, ofc ) for them?!

I actually enjoyed the episode... George's "baby" to Tansy was so sweet.
I honestly didn't mind George’s mothers craziness. I know they shove George and Zoe down our throat as the couple Leila wanted but this episode was written from such a different stand point of George genuinely being happy with Tansy and vice versa for Zoe and Wade that his mother pining for George to be with Zoe was hilarious and fit her personality to a tee. On paper George and Zoe should work but in reality they don't and I love that they went there with that this episode.
Also, Tansy is quite possibly my FAVORITE character! Loved watching her get all feisty, lol.

Did not like this episode. It just felt too...forced. And now with Lavon seeming to make googly eyes (Thanks Wade) at Annabeth, this is starting to feel just a leeeeetle bit soap opera-ish, as in everyone is either dating or likes someone who was dating someone else in their immediate circle. (That made more sense in my head).
I'm hoping we get back to the light-hearted feel of the show next week. I think that's where it excels.

I completely agree with you! This episode was definitely lacking what the other episodes have had. I felt the scenes were very forced, and that even the actors didn't enjoy performing. I can't stand George's mother! I hope she doesn't come back on the show for a long time. Honestly, I would've just been fine if I missed this episode. I hope next week is much better!

Definitely not the best episode of the season by a long shot. Hopefully this is the last time for a while we have to sit through the revisiting non-story of George and Zoe. At least this time it came across as forced because it really was with the OTT kidnapping by George's crazy mother. The only good thing from that was that George and Zoe finally admitted that they don't want to be together. I didn't mind Wade's relaxed attitude. I do think now that they are in a relationship he has been down this road too many times to not know how it is going to end. I think he realizes that if Zoe really wanted George she'd be with him. I loved the bit about him asking about bartending in NY at the end. He is beginning to think of the future and I see his storyline emerging.
I enjoyed AB and Lavon's scenes and am interested in seeing where this goes. Lemon, Brick and Shelby was ok but again nothing exciting. I also loved Tansy in this episode.

I disagree I love the episode yes I love the couple that are together right now but I it was just great to see that they like the relationship that there in. My favorite part was when zoey was talk to George and Tansy on the boat . And wade could hear what zoey was saying it was too cute. I wish Annabeth and the mayor have something because I finding to like them together. but we know that lemon not going to take that laying down. . I can't wait for next week episode it look funny.

I have to agree. This ep was just too much drama for drama's sake. G's mom was psycho. And while I loved how hilariously mellow W was about the G issue, it was a bit off. The last time they dealt with that, he certainly wasn't. Perhaps he has more confidence because of Z's decision to have a real relationship. The little hint of him being concerned about bartenders in NY was the most important part. That's where really good writing lies: conflict based on differences in personalities/goals/values, not through ridiculous shipnapping by crazy mothers. That said, I can only hope the characters were being truthful and the writers have realized what much of the audience has already figured out: it's ABSOLUTELY OK if G/Z don't end up together.
AB's plot was silly but I too loved that she had a real storyline. And while the little triangle they're setting up will of course end badly, for the 1st time I could actually see a possible AB/Lavon pairing.

The best part of this episode for me was also Annabeth. She has become one of my favorite characters and I love when they give her screen time. It was great that tonight she got a story that didn't involve Lemon (who I still am not a big fan of, honestly). I hope they give her someone soon. Every guy she likes is not the right fit for her. I like her and Lavon together, especially at the end, but I agree it won't go smoothly since she knows abotu Lemon's feelings for Lavon. My favorite part though was when Annabeth realized Lemon thought she was sleeping with Brick.
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...
