Revenge Recap: The Beaver Dam comes to Grayson Manor

Revenge

By Foggywood | | 9:26 am | 17 Comments

Vic hands over the check to Faux, who then confronts Vic with the sign in sheet from the mental hospital, proving that Vic had visited Kara. Vic is a little perturbed, grabbing ensues, and WHOOPS!, Faux takes a tumble – over the balcony onto the marble floor below.

Seriously, parties at Grayson Manor are such a bummer.

The Aftermath

Faux makes Em promise to save the baby. The baby is delivered and Faux is in a coma. Jack is super sad and now guilty because he dared to make one good decision by breaking up with her. Declan arrives and is reunited with Charlotte who does nothing but stand around with her hair pulled to one side. Emily stands around catching a cold.  


Emily, are you barefoot?  in a hospital?  Or are those flats with your disco dress?

Em goes to check on Faux and finds Kara comforting her “daughter”, telling her she’s going to be OK. At home, Emily is upset and then Aiden magically arrives to comfort her. Oh Aiden, you’re always popping up at the right moment, you magical ninja super hero, you.

This episode worked for me, but then again hello?? The Beaver Dam and disco dresses? Of course it worked for me.

What about you guys? Was this an improvement? What about these incidental plot lines that are kind of bugging? Can the show pull these together so they actually seem important to the whole REVENGE of it all? What about Kara holding little Amanda under the water?  That’s some Prince of Tides shit right there.

Oh and between the red dress at the memorial and the boob dress here, Ems is doing this on purpose, right?  Right???

    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.
