Maybe now that he appears to be back together with Charlotte (pray for the girl), she’ll slap some sense into him.


Hasn’t the poor girl been through enough?

Nol-Ma? Pad-lan?

So, in the land of Nolan and NolCorp, we had some sadness – and smooching! Nolan’s estranged dad died and Padma brought it to his attention. Nolan was sad and Padma comforted him. She finally decided to go with glasses on and hair down (Arrested Development fans?)


“Hair down, glasses on!  Glasses on!”

And apparently it worked because, in the romantic storage unit, they kissed! Awww, right? Or maybe not? After he told her he was going to whisk her away to Paris, she found the check David Clarke gave to Nolan to start up his company which…??? You’d think if this was a damaging secret you wouldn’t keep the thing framed, although it was stashed in storage… We’ll have to see how this one goes.

But in the meantime, Nolan is gettin’ some! Bet you’re happy you have your own place now, Nols.

The Super Secret, Kinda Boring “initiative”

Gordan Murphy, AKA the White Haired Man, AKA husband of Kara was an agent for this covert group which is somehow ultimately tied to David Clarke’s death. Conrad and Victoria worked for (?) or was tied to the group, which contributed to their vast wealth and power. Well, now that Whitey is missing, they are pissed and digging around. Conrad went to diffuse the situation, but this plot will only grow. Especially now that Aiden is digging around. So far this is kind of a snooze…

The Terrible, Horrible, No Good Baby Shower (which was kinda awesome)


The one on the right has obviously been here before

When Victoria Grayson offers to throw you a party, especially a baby shower, say “no thank you” and quietly tip toe out of the room.

Never mind the blackmailing crazy girl whose identity you have assumed. Screw her. Leave immediately.

Emily forced Amanda to sell Victoria the Daddy’s fake journal for $100,000 so she could get Victoria’s signature – HAHAHAHAHA! That is so absurd, it is hilarious. Whatever, the pregnant girl needs the money.

And then Ems forced her puppet to accept the offer of a baby shower from Vic – which was to take place the next day. OK, whatever. The main thing we all need to focus on here that FAUXMANDA TURNED GRAYSON MANNER INTO THE BEAVER DAM! And Emily thought she was going disco dancing in 1979.


When I googled “disco dress” this came up.  Swear to God. Em’s just had more cleavage.  

Let me explain: so the shower is in effect and full of Victoria’s friends, which is weird. Why do you invite strangers to someone’s baby shower?  Victoria is being a bitch (duh!). Faux arrives with a posse of strippers from the aforementioned Beaver Dam. Let’s just say that Faux might have been smelling some liquor bottles before she arrived. The strippers decide to strut their stuff and lap dances may have taken place. Let’s hope Vic hid her bondage gear.

    God I like Declan when he was cute love sick boy and criminal stupid Declan pisses me off.

    Love Charlotte more and more.

    That was a rocking baby shower. haha I one time attended a baby shower for a complete stranger. I was newly friends with this girl and she was throwing a shower for her twin sister she just got unestranged with and wanted people to come since she didn’t know a lot of people. So I came and brought a small gift. There were only like 5 people there. It was weird.

    Foggywood, I’m one of the 3 who misses Ringer, but this show and your recaps fill the void nicely. I was getting sick of Amanda and Jack anyway. Fingers crossed Kara puts her out of her misery jk lol. I thought Nolan was gay?? This season isn’t revenge-y enough for me. I miss Em ruining people’s lives one episode at a time.

    Less initiative, more revenging please! Also, I pine for Ringer. I was watching old eps of Buffy this weekend and I missed having SMG on my tv once a week. Still don’t trust Padma. Excited to see Ashley get hers. Finally, wondering if the costume department just noticed that Emily van Camp has breasts and decided to showcase them this season.

    Maybe Emily van Camp’s breasts are new this season. I thought Nolan was gay, too. Perhaps he is bi.

    I think they briefly mentioned that Nolan is bi in the last season.

    Last season he said he was about a 3 on the Kinsey scale, so I’m glad they’re staying true to that.

    I miss SMG more than the actual show Ringer, but oh, well. And the check was necessary so Amanda could show Vicky that the way she wrote “Clarke” was a match. (Pay to Amanda Clarke, and Victoria signed the log Charlotte Clarke, so she didn’t need a ‘Victoria Grayson’ sample, which of course she could have gotten easily).

    And I think the whole point of the setup for Jack’s bar is for Jack to have to just give it to the guy, not sell it to him. He owes Skeevy $20,000 and the bar has at least $40,000 worth of mold removal, not to mention repairing the walls and stuff…so the rich stay rich, I guess, by paying $60,000+ less for the bar, and low balling the rest by blackmailing Jack with contacting the police. Why Jack wouldn’t sell the boat again to get some money, I can’t figure out.

    @Lydia – I took the unsigned check as Vicky was going to try to get out of paying the money (which she may not have) – she gave that check up too easily. The girls only wanted it for handwriting samples.

    my bridal shower was mostly my mother-in-law’s friends, so i get the stranger thing (my mother-in-law decided SHE would throw my bridal shower two HOURS away from where i live, so of course hardly any of my friends came — she did it because it was convenient to her), so i get the strangers-at-your-shower thing … and it is AWKWARD. although then you do tend to get better presents to make up for the fact that you’re stuck in a room with people you’ve never met pretending they’re happy for you.

    i have to wonder if kara is going to sabotage the equipment keeping fauxmanda alive — is there really any use left for faux? the baby can be used as a bargaining tool, but what use is fauxmanda anymore, really? she doesn’t even have her own personality.

    i don’t fully get the “initiative,” but even the name bugs me. either get interesting or dissolve, damn it.

    OMG! Thank you for the Arrested Development pic. “Glasses on! Hair up! Lights off!” Can’t wait until January.

    Great recap. Lots of unanswered questions right now.

    I guess Emily’s mom really did try to kill her. Isn’t that what Victoria told her 2 episodes ago?

    Declan is only tolerable when he is with Charlotte.

    My heart broke for Emily having to see her mom comfort Fauxmanda!!!!!!! I hope she dies.

    but was mommy really trying to “comfort” fauxmanda, or was she trying to figure out how to kill her without getting caught? i mean, she’s already tried before.

    I thought the whole handwriting thing made no sense anyway. You can get handwriting samples many many ways. Then just have an expert confirm it.
