S03.E14: Payback


Recommended Posts

Well, Emily, all that Revenge-ing is biting you on the nether regions about now.

I liked the addition of Gail O'Grady as Stevie Grayson - she might keep me watching a bit longer. And it was nice to see Jack got a haircut. Conrad is as slimy as ever. And Charlotte and Daniel continue to be TSTL. But Nolan and Emily do nothing for me anymore. Patrick feels like an afterthought. I think Stevie and Victoria just need to be on screen most of the time for me to be happy.

I'm really starting to get a bit bored with this show, and it's starting to turn into the 'show that's just on the tv' like much of HGTV often is for me. And to be honest, The Property Brothers, fake as it is, can give me as good or better drama then this on some days...

We assume Emily is losing time because she's been drugged, right?

Very valid option there. But who did the drugging? Conrad? Daniel would be a good choice, but doesn't seem to be playing his hand properly if that's the case. Victoria would be playing the whole scenario differently, I think? Of course, I'm trying to make sense of this, and that's just silly, right?

There seems to be a rule against bringing back anything from Season 2, but since Emily and Nolan brought up her mother, I wouldn't mind seeing Jennifer Jason Leigh again. Bring in all the mothers!

Emily's eyerolls whenever Daniel tries to act like her equal might be my new favorite thing about the show.

I was trying to remember if Jennifer Jason Leigh had already been on as Emily's mother, and then convinced myself that I was thinking of Royal Pains. (Also the Hamptons, also an inappropriate runaway blonde mom, but that one was Rosanna Arquette.)

This show was like a whiplash cocktail... some things I loathed, some things I liked, some things I meh-ed.

Loathed: Em's black-outs, Patrick's 'getting to know you' moments with his all-too-ready-to-tell-his-life's-story dad, Victoria's continuity fails in terms of her age when Patrick was conceived, the tease of having had Em sleep with Conrad being a big fake out.

Loved: Joshleejosh's aforementioned Emily eye-roll at Daniel being a dweeb playing out of his league, the appearance of Mrs. Grayson #1, Margaux's getting her managerial ass handed to her by Conrad, Em's dress at the birthday party, Nikko and Aiden hitting the road.

Meh-ed: Mrs. Grayson #1 is Jack's mom? (is Conrad his dad?), Em maybe is psychotic? Charlotte is going to be a spy, Patrick and Victoria killed the rapist/dad... too much meh.  Reveals are supposed to be fabulous, not meh.
