- She’s talking about her problems with Silver.

- I still see this as a problem on Harry’s end. He’s going through his own issues with his marriage and Kelly seems enticing to him.
- But she hasn’t done anything to indicate she’s interested. Talking to someone about a problem, something they’ve done in the past, isn’t an indication of anything.
- Still, Debbie has every right to be upset. Harry isn’t acting appropriately.

- She says she has too much work to do to have this conversation, and they leave for the party.
- Liam and Ivy are the last 2 left in the competition.
- Ivy claims to have a cramp and when Liam goes to help, she takes off in the competition.
- Liam misses his chance.
- She wins and gets the surf board.
- Liam is pissed!
- Dixon shows up to Sasha’s, much to her delight.
- He says he’s not staying…and then breaks up with her!
- Dixon says the relationship isn’t working because they can’t ever go out, or be with each other’s friends or do anything like a normal couple.
- Sasha asks why is he realizing this now when he knew this to begin with and “roped [her] back in and made [her] care.”
- Dixon apologizes and she tells him to leave.

- Liam runs into Ivy, and they start fighting again.
- They decide to have a rematch–a “suicide competition.” First one to wipe out, loses.

- Too much time being wasted on surfing scenes! I guess it’s more plot-driven tonight in the past, though.
- Jasper and Annie pull up to the beach club.
- Jasper says they’re shooting a scene for his movie.
- Annie’s all excited.
- He explains that she needs “borrow” a car.
- Annie says that’s stealing but he says it’s borrowing and tells her to “live a little.”
- Annie says he can’t do this but he tells she has to in order for the movie to work.
- Everytime Jasper calls Annie his muse, I cringe a little. It seems really creepy and sketchy.
- He gives in to her but then she changes her mind and agrees to do it.
- Harry brings home flowers, and Debbie says it won’t help.
- He explains that Kelly was upset about her mom and he had to help.
- Debbie says Harry lied and he says he omitted.
- Debbie says it’s not appropriate for Kelly to be confiding in “her married boss” who she has a crush on.
- Sorry, I don’t think Kel has a crush on him. I think it’s already been established that they’re friendly, so it makes sense that in a crisis, she opened up to him. It hasn’t been established she has any other friends. If anyone has the crush–or is at least intrigued, I think it’s Harry, not Kelly.
- Teddy goes back to West Bev to talk to Silver.
- He says he’s really sorry about her mom.
- She tells him to save his pity and asks why he cares.

- They bond over the stress of caring for a sick person, instead of being a normal high school student.
- Teddy says he understands that it’s “hard as hell” and they couldn’t live with themselves if they didn’t help.
- Silver says she’s tried not to admit how hard it is.
- Teddy tells her he can handle it.
- I like this side of him. I think people want to see more of this.
- Silver says it’s so overwhelming, she just wants to scream.
- He offers to show her how he “used to blow off steam.”
- Ivy gives Liam the surf board, saying he deserves it.
- She says she’s sensitive to “gender stereotypes” because no one ever took her seriously as a girl surfing.
- Liam says he knows she’s good but she’s “lousy with apologies.”
- He’s talking about the car again.
- Liam says he’s been underestimated, too.
- He doesn’t like being blamed for things that aren’t his fault. He’s obviously referencing the Annie/Naomi/Jen stuff.
- She finally apologizes and they banter flirtatiously.
- He kind of hugs her, and Naomi sees.
- It gets kind of awkward and Liam makes a joke, then she walks away.
- Jasper is filming Annie taking the car
- Kelly calls Harry to see how Debbie is and says she hopes it didn’t have to do with her.
- Harry says it did–that Debbie thinks Kelly has a crush on him.
- Kelly says that’s ridiculous but it looks like she does actually have a crush on him!
- Maybe it’s an innocent crush? She hasn’t made any indication that she’d pursue it. Hmmm.
- Harry looks stressed. Because he agrees that she likes him or he believes that she doesn’t so he’s disappointed?

- Jamie has potential, she says.
- Adrianna tells her she did the right thing.
- I wonder if she’s lying. Did she really break up with him?
- Teddy and Silver are hitting tennis balls off a roof top.
- I can see how this reveals some of the stress.
- I think we all know where this is going.
- Dixon sees Sasha as he’s leaving the party.
- She apologizes for being “needy.”
- Dixon says that’s OK but they are still in 2 different places in their lives.
- Sasha says she’s pregnant!
- Fade to black.
- I knew this was coming.
- Preview: Liam says Ivy’s “not a girl” but then they kiss, Navid says Adrianna isn’t her problem, Adrianna is crying and Naomi is worried she will start using again, Jasper and Annie kiss, Jasper is a drug dealer, Dixon tells his parents he got a girl pregnant
- The next episode is in two weeks, November 3.
This episode was so bla for me, and I didn’t like all the surf scenes or the new surf girl. Although, I did like the nicer side of Teddy. Really missed Navid.
Really? Another pregnancy storyline? lame. I think it’s kind of ridiculous that Liam and Naomi are still hung up on eachother. I didn’t see that great of a connection last year. I mean maybe if they were together for longer then it would be plausible, but it seems like they are turning it into something bigger than it was in retrospect. It was kind of refreshing not having Navid in the ep. and not having Ade in it too much. And as for Jasper…. he creeps me out and I don’t understand why Annie can’t see his sketchiness. on another note I find it funny that they are in small ways bringing in elements from other successful teen dramas. i.e. the Dawson’s Creek reference and I don’t know if anyone else has noticed, but they are playing a lot of classic O.C. songs, and obviously use A LOT of O.C. locations.
i don’t know what happened to liam..last year he didn’t seem like the guy who cries weeks over a girl but now he seems like he’s all whiny..what happened to that tough guy?!
Sane: The surf scenes get old after a while but we’re going to have to get used to Ivy. She’s sticking around for a bit. Could be a lot more of nice Teddy to come as well, and I’m sure Navid will be back soon.
Alyssa: That was my reaction to the pregnancy, too. I am really hoping that it’s different both from Adrianna/Navid and Haley-Nathan-Renee. And every other show that’s tackled this before. I agree with you on Liam and Naomi. I think there is potential if they got back together, but I don’t see the past connection that the show is trying to highlight. It was strange having such an Ade and Navid-less episode, when they’ve been at the forefront this season up until this point. Jasper and Annie had such potential for an interesting storyline but they are going in a direction that could’ve been done with any other guy that wasn’t, say, the nephew of the man she killed. Unless they bring it back to that somehow, it feels like a waste. I loved the Dawson’s Creek reference, but I haven’t really noticed O.C. songs. Definitely O.C. locations, though!
mj: I think Liam–like most high schoolers and even people older–is very lost right now. He’s not sure who he is, who he wants to be or who he can rely on. His tough facade has definitely come down a bit this year but I’m not sure if that makes him a dynamic character or another failure on the writers’ part.
During one of the surf montages they had “Daft punk is playing at my house” by LCD Soundsystem and I believe that was even one one of the O.C. soundtracks and there are others I don’t recall at the moment.
omg it sounds like a gud one… although ivy is a new one right? i mean i didnt see or hear her in wild alaskan salmon and oh it seems like things may go back… silver with her bipolar symptoms and ade with her drug problems… poor annie she is gonna be in trouble and dixon lolz oh boy wat can i say abt tht… harry and debbie have relationship problems though not surprised i always knew tht would happen.. come on ppl u live in beverly hills now, its common look at the clarks with their abnormalities all of them… ah episode full of drama cant wait to watch this one
demon: Yes, Ivy is new. This was her first episode. You’re on the right track with the rest of your comments!
