“The guest list included the creme de la creme of the Hamptons and New York business society. The bride looked stunning in a gunmetal grey gown with matching pearls, while the groom was handsome as ever in his tuxedo – until he was carted off the local police. As usual, the Graysons certainly threw a party to remember!”
-Vanity Fair, September 2012
“You’re going down, you son of a bitch.”
Seriously, wouldn’t you like to read how that Vanity Fair “exclusive” article on the Grayson re-nuptials turned out? No doubt the Grayson publicity team had to work overtime on damage control to smooth out that crisis. While the wedding (and collapse of) may have been the highlight of the episode, much was afoot as out cast of characters continued to try to outcrazy, outclass, outtrash, and outsmart one another.
Out-Kara-zy
No matter if Kara is good or evil, nutbar or sane – we can all agree that the woman has had a rough life. A troubled mother (post partum?) who was hidden away for years and has now had her second chance at happiness destroyed. No doubt a little revenge is in order here – the question is who, what, where, and how. I hope it involves watercolors.
She has a black belt in watercolors
She’s certainly in a prime position, firmly entrenched at Grayson Manor. Watching her creep around Victoria’s boudoir was fun, huh? She is definitely working her Single White Female cred here. Too bad Whitey had to go down before she was brought on the scene – they would have made quite a duo. Yikes! (As for our dearly departed Whitey Gordon Murphy – let’s all hope we have seen the last of him for the sake of the actor’s dignity. Oh well, a paycheck is a paycheck, either alive or frozen).
They would scare the bejeezus out of me
While the scenes of Kara doting over the baby and her new “family” are creepy, let’s hope she isn’t made the wiser anytime soon. Yes, it may not be morally correct to let her believe that baby Carl is her flesh and blood, but it is one of the only things she’s got to hang onto right now.
Oh great Victoria! Now she smells like you!
I wonder who’s running the motel?
Outclass
Ah, the wedding of the summer season! Formal attire, the finest champagne, 5 gorgeous tiers of wedding cake, a Vera Wang dress modeled on a particularly fierce storm cloud. What could go wrong? Or right for that matter?

I rock the full cleavage anytime if I want to. I got hot boobs and I might as well show them off.
Dammit Fauxmanda has won me over completely. I like her now and actually want her to be okay.

“Do you work well with red yard?” Haha that’s so great.
I can’t help but feel for Fauxmanda too. Carl has certainly mellowed her out. Also: anyone think Kara is looking very squinty? I’m a big Jennifer Jason Leigh fan but I can’t take her seriously when she’s all drugged out looking. Maybe it’s the rough life? Having Mason threaten Emily’s plans adds a bit of excitement (and hopes for more awesome revenge-y episodes like this one!) for the future.
Gosh I love this show!!

haha! the first dress ashley tried on was the dress i wore to my rehearsal dinner. i wish she’d worn it to the wedding, too. and it’s most definitely a wedding dress! i mean, it isn’t sold as a wedding dress, but, dude, i felt like i could have worn it to my wedding (wish i had instead of the 12 layers of tulle plus crinolin that made me soooo overheated).
the stowaway is like my local gross towny bar i despise but get dragged to every once in a while. i am friends with the owner (knew her from when we were teenagers), and i still hate going there. the stowaway is, likewise, gross. and kenny is freakin’ annoying and i would like to see him gone. i’m okay with him being the dead arm if he winds up being that.

Hmmm. I totally missed the dress you’re talking about. I went back and looked too. I liked Nolan’s hair in this episode.
