The Carrie Diaries Recap: You Dropped A Bomb On Me

Sorry, I drifted off- Sebastian tells Donna he is happy to end this without any drama. And Donna confirm that she will be telling everyone that SHE broke up with HIM. Sebastian is ok with that.

Let’s check in on the old and pathetic, shall we? Dad is talking with Harlan and Harlan is begging Dad to come along on his date. It seems Harlan’s date needs a “side chick,” and Harlan wants Dad to be the side chick’s date. Dad is like… no way, but Harlan convinces him. As Dad and Harlan reach the revolving door of Harlan’s law office- Dad inquires how Carrie is doing with her internship… Harlan tells Dad he hears good things, but he hasn’t seen Carrie, nor does he know what floor she works on. (Ok, BS alarm going off… if Barbara is Harlan’s lackey, wouldn’t it stand to reason that Barbara – and by association Carrie- would sit in some relatively close proximity to Harlan??!?!) But Dad is welcome to come in and say “Hi” to his daughter. Although Dad is tempted, he declines. Good thing as CARRIE AIN’T IN DA HOUSE.

Back at Interview, Carrie is sitting in as a shoe model- modeling a pair of Manolo Blahnik shoes and thinks “Maybe Cinderella was so happy the shoe fit- not because of the Prince- but because of the SHOES!” Amen sister.

Training-Manolos

After the shoot, Larissa gives the shoes to Carrie to keep, and tells her to wear the shoes to “The Limelight” on Friday. Carrie lets it slip that she has plans to go to “the Lock-in.” Larissa want to know if that’s the new bondage club??? Carrie covers her flub and is torn. She could go to the “Lock-in” and spend the night with Sebastian or she could have a FAB night out in NYC!?!! No contest, Carrie chooses Manhattan.

At home, Mouse and Mags are jealous of Carrie’s Manolos- and they are disappointed that she is not going to be at the “Lock-in.” Carrie is excited that her invite to the Limelight coincides with a night where she already has permission to stay out all night!! PLUS- Barbara is covering for her INDEFINITELY… (Why? Why would Barbara cover for Carrie forever- that makes no sense.) Finally, Mouse can’t stand it anymore- and she blurts out that Sebastain is breaking up with Super Vixen Donna LaDonna! Mouse is so excited for this development, but Mags warns her – “don’t get involved with someone who is already involved.” Just then, the door swings up and Dad comes in with an old sleeping bag.

Pssst “getting steak” is code for “getting me some sweet ass.”

He dug it out of the garage so that Carrie will be nice and comfortable at the “Lock-in.” He tells Carrie he is planning to go out for steak… Once Dad leave, she tells the girls that she really doesn’t like lying to her Dad, but she certainly is getting good at it!
