you can cut stars.

Nothing interesting in this episode, just serves to fill up 40 minutes in TV land. Okay, that sounds really bad. But the last 2 episodes had been such an emotional ride that this new one seems kinda boring in comparison. Maybe I got spoiled by fast moving shows like Heroes and Prison Break.

Okay. Let's try that again. All in all, not too bad an episode. Haley was unbelievably sweet, especially when she was talking about talking to Daunte's family. That guy ran her over and nearly killed her baby, accident or otherwise, and she still wants to make his family feel better. I'm glad Nathan told her the truth though. It was something he needed to do for both of them to move on from the ordeal. "Why is it that it's so much easier to forgive a stranger than it is to forgive someone you love?" I love that line. And more Lucas/Haley. I love that friendship there. And Nathan's speech in the end made me tear up a little, but I guess this kinda paves the way for the big bad spoiler, mentioning what a jerk Nathan was before Haley. I wasn't a Naley fan to start with in Season 1, but everything happening in the later part of last season and this season have definitely changed my view. They have their issues, but everything ends up good, because, as Haley puts it, it's true love. I can't wait to see them with Nathan Jr. That would be so adorable.

Mouth/Gigi was cute. I still don't get Gigi though. She's always so ridiculously cheerful. Did she break up with Mouth because she didn't want to get hurt? Does she think it's not worth it to try the long distance thing? Does she not love Mouth enough to try? Does she hide behind her cheerfulness? Or does she really not care that much? Hm. Definitely an interesting character.

Wearing identical cat suit to steal things? This is not a movie. (It's a TV show though.) Point is, how much more of a tool can they be? And the principal actually letting them off? Brooke is so obviously getting busted for that test in the future. I hope Stephen Coletti can give her a better storyline next week. That 'Clean Teens' thing was kinda funny though.

As a Lucas/Peyton fan, I must say I didn't like this episode as much as I should. The whole Peyton 'I kill everyone I love' was getting ridiculously old in my opinion, but yes, I'm still a Peyton fan. But I guess it's something that must be addressed in the show, since it's kinda true that Peyton drives a lot of people in her life away, her fault or otherwise. Now that there's out of the way, gimme more Lucas/Peyton lovin'! All the kissing was adorable. We need more of that.

So Dan is really honestly good now? Okay, perfect timing to let everyone know that he killed Keith. Who do you think is the one redecorating Dan's workplace and apartment?

All in all, yes, not too bad an episode. 6/10, I'd say. Plus an extra point for the Naley and Leyton lovin' and the awesome music.
