1. Dan telling Vanessa off. I swear I could picture keyboard cat playing her off after that one.
2. Apparently not, otherwise the ep wouldn't be called "The wrong goodbye".
3. I always have issues with these "hardest to believe" questions cause it always seems like the options are not thought all the way thru...
In Cali, a beautiful girl getting a job in the movies? Yeah, cause that never happens (irony mode on)... A supposedly good book with an anonymous author. Hmmm, why would that be hard to publish? And honestly I don't think Vanessa was looking for money, I think her goal was to get the book published by any means necessary. So maybe she didn't get THAT lucrative deal you think, but just the average payment for a writing work.
That leaves the only actual coherent option which was the quick resolution of the Thorpe's sl.
4. As much as I love that Jack Basstard, my answer is Georgie. But I'd like to see Juliet back as well.
5. She was useful to cause the thunder that will shake the UES in S05. So 0, call it a nice goodbye.
6. Blair is more than obvious, so for this moment, I'll say it's Serena's/Ben's love child ;)
1. All Jack's lines. He was definitely the comic relief. But I also liked Blair to Penelope "I invited you to attend, not to speak", gotta love vintage Gossip Girl.
2. As Mister Meester said, it was those 3 things all together.
3. The Russel/Chuck story doesn't seem hard to believe for me. A little far fetched maybe, but not unrealistic.
Blair's engagement shouldn't even be an option in this question. Given Blair, do you really consider hard to believe that she would jump into an engagement with a real Prince?
The Charlie thing, well, you can think maybe that was not the first dose she missed. Maybe she has not been taking her meds ever since she arrived in the UES. So for me, the real HARD thing to believe was she throwing her meds on a living room trash can thinking no one would find out.
4. As much as it is always so delightful when Cyrus appears and the vintage mean girls were missed, gotta give up to good, friendly uncle Jack.
5. 20. what was her use, honestly? To tell something Serena had already discovered at Blair's party?
6. It seems that Chuck will choose the prince for her.
The producers released this picture on purpose to mislead the viewers and everybody is now going to the direction the writers want: to believe that CB will be together in the season finale. Remember, we were fooled before by pics and promos, so don't jump to conclusions before you see what happens... specially when there are a lot of spoilers saying otherwise...
No surprise for Jenny and specially Vanessa... there is clearly no room for trolessa anymore...
But Kaylee DeFer as a regular was a surprise... REALLY? They have SO many other better guest stars that could become regular, why that crazy bitch Charlie, I don't get it...
I think it was one of the best eps this season. Despite the following:
a. Badass Jack Bass turns into god cop outta nothing? Just for a free plane ticket? ¬¬ Did he join a cult or something where people acknowledge their flaws and ask for forgiveness?
b. Would Charlie seriously think that she could throw her meds in a trash can in the living room unnoticed? ¬¬
c. Why does Blair HAVE to meet Chuck in person whenever she wants to talk to him? Isn't it why they have all the finest gadgets, to make communication easier?? A call or text never hurt anyone.
But anyways, I really enjoyed Jack's twist. It was great to see things working out for Chuck at least once and without Blair's help. And Desmond Harrington is always such an eye candy. He should be a regular.
And can somebody just please kill Nate? Ugh... Vanessa hasn't even left yet and he's already taking her place. He knew about the deal with Russel, so what could that stupid Raina do to Chuck when she couldn't even plot a revenge on her own and had to call the big guns?
And that Charlie person...I just can't.. lol... What will be S05E01 episode titled? Sleeping with the frenemy?
@Lissy: Very much agreed.
To me the problem was Blair's reaction. If they wanted to show that she IS NOT afraid of him, instead of running away like that, maybe she should've just given him a fierce angry look. But hey that's just my opinion =P
"Who are you more disappointed in, Serena or Chuck?" - What about Backstabbing Archibald ? Wasn't all the backstabbing enough to disappoint you? ¬¬ Since Vanessa is leaving, Nate will replace her as the useless backstabber. Ditto.
If I were you, I wouldn't discard Chuck and Chair this quickly. If I'm not mistaken, there is a spoiler saying that Chuck will do something REALLY big for Blair. Apparently, he will give up of the Empire and Bass Industries to save/protect Blair.
I'm not sure if this spoiler is true or not, but people shouldn't jump into conclusions when the season is not even over yet. A lot can happen in two episodes.
1. Fav quotes:
- Blair telling Dorota not to "Miss Blair" her;
- The "Bass-ectomy";
- Dorota saying that if even KGB can't break her, Chuck Bass has no chance;
- The Dean asking who is Vanessa (LMAO);
2. Def. not the last of Ben. As for Colin, for now I guess so. Though, I really hope he returns.
3. Mister Meester said it. I'll give her a 0 when the NJBC takes her down and when Dan finds out she is also behind the whole Serena takedown attempt.
4. Argh, neither. Nate is boring and Dan has become a huge hypocrite douche. I vote for Colena? Solin? LOL I'm not as good as Gossip Guy when it comes to create nicknames for couples.
5. Normally I'd say the outsiders have no chance, but this is GG, so anything can happen. The outsiders may win a couple of rounds, but in the end, of course it will be all about the NJBC.
Soooo awesome... really loved the episode. Why though does every male in the show, expect for Chuck, dress like Dan? Is he some sort of fashion dictator? LOL.. I loved his "Little J" moment though.
Oh my, that nude dress Blair's wearing is one of my favorite outfits of all times! She looks like a goddess :~) So damn perfect!
This whole war thing is really stupid, to begin with the fact that it is not a war but Chuck trying to destroy Blair. A war requires two enemies fighting which is not the case. I say Blair should fight back and call Carter and Uncle Jack for back up =P
1. Bassian bubble and Blair Waldorfing ;)
2. I'm confused about this question. Is it about naming the best or worst plot involving Eva? If it's the worst, then definetely her splitting town after Chuck doubted her. Like, really??? And even after getting an apologize?
3. No Derena, please. I love them together but I'm kinda tired of this on-off-on-again-off-again relationship. Let Serena be herself with somebody else. As for Danessa, god, I hope not.
4. Clearly, to destroy Serena. But as always Nate will save her, even if accidentally since Juliet is falling for him.
5. I love Blair, but I'm betting on Chuck. There's no question actually. While Blair was broken with Chuck's speech, he got home and fired Ivan with no reason. Need to say more? The good thing is that MAYBE when Chuck destroys Blair and realize she's been lying the whole time, he'll feel so guilty he'll jump and die on a fire xD
Favorite GG Quote: I was caught in middle of Chuck's sincerest ever "Thank you" and Serena's hilarious "I risked everything for Tripp".
Favorite Perfomance: Chace was really good even with all the eyelash mascara he seemed to be using, but of course Ed was the best! The way he showed Chuck's transition/confusion between trying to be like his father and trying to be himself was simply amazing!
Rufus revenge-cheat on Lily: High five, DAndy!
You're-going-to-hell move of the night: Definetely Maureen. Tripp is just a scared kid who doesn't know what he's doing.
Excitement for Serenate or Van: Serenate. It will be actually kinda fun to see Nate as the wise one in the relationship.
Biggest shocker: Chuck's mother being alive, or Jenny dealing drugs: To be honest, none. It is obvious that someone like Bart Bass would hide and lie about something like that. And as for Jenny, the raccoon-rockstar-wannabe is now on drugs? Oh, surprise, surprise. Not even Dan's sex denial was a big surprise to me, of course that as the manwhore he was being lately, I expected him to go through with it, but I guess he just coming back to his senses.
A big surprise for me was actually secret option number 4: Rufus meeting the co-op trophy wife for drinks after finding out about the letter.
1. What was your favorite Gossip Girl quote from the episode?
I have to agree with Mr. Meester.
"You were right about the dorms. The lighting is awful. You okay?" Chuck's reply? "I am now."
These lines made my eyes full of tears :~) Way much more sweet and romantic than that "I'm not chuck bass without you" from the premiere.
2. Who do you trust least, Carter, Scott or Georgina?
As much I agree with Gossip Guy about Scott - Gossip Guy: Absolutely Scott. It may just be his absolutely horrible acting, but it seems like that man is hiding more than just the fact he's Rufus and Lily's kid. - the person I trust least is Georgina.
Not only for what we've learnt about her for the last two seasons, but oh, please, isn't she such a fake? Acting all cool and alternative as if she was a part of all that, but the bottom line is that she is no different from Blair.
3. Least realistic: Serena blowing off school for the heck of it, Chuck's meetings with bankers in inappropriate locations, or the entire college party scene?
I totally go with Gossip Guy for that one
Gossip Guy: I don't know why, but I do picture Chuck meeting bankers in clubs and after Serena's summer escapades, nothing shocks me with that girl. However, I'm sorry, even at NYU I can't imagine kids would turn down free sushi and cocktails to watch a crappy independent movie by Vanessa. Don't they know how useless that girl is? Normally 11+. And then, oh boy, rooftop party above your dorm with kegs and above ground kiddie pools? Yeah I'm pretty sure we got busted just for bringing six packs into our door room.
4. Rate Vanessa's uselessness this week on a scale of 1-10.
Can't go lower than 10! She is annoying. That scene in the bookstore was the worst.
She is always trying to play the fair good girl which is REALLY annoying.
5. Dangina: So hot, or so not?
Old news. So, not hot.
BONUS QUESTION: What have you liked and disliked most about the first two episodes this season?
Love: Chair, Chair, Chair
Dislike: There is no competition in this area for Nate and Bree. OMG, how boring can they be? I actually changed the channel during their scenes in the episode. Seriously, Nate is ridiculously boring. Joanna Garcia is so nice and pretty. She surely deserves a better plot in the show.
