Victoria is reviewing her immunity agreement with the SEC when Charlotte walks in to tell her Dr. Clemmons has arrived. Charlotte complains that she is basically under house arrest while Daniel is free. Victoria tells Charlotte that she has spoken to the Dean of her school and she will begin classes again next week. Victoria also reminds Charlotte that Declan’s lies are what got her into trouble in the first place. Charlotte reminds Victoria that Victoria’s lies have messed with her head, too.

WHAT? YOU MEAN THAT SILLY LITTLE “YOUR FATHER ISN’T YOUR FATHER YOU BASTARD CHILD OF A MURDERER” THING? SURELY YOU ARE OVERREACTING!

Charlotte tells Victoria that Dr. Clemmons wants to do a family therapy session. Victoria scoffs that it will never happen. Charlotte says the doctor says the only way she can deal with her anger issues is to forgive and that she can’t do that unless Conrad and Victoria do as well.

UPON WHICH VICKI MORPHS INTO A BAT AND FLIES INTO CHARLOTTE’S HAIR.

Victoria meets in secret with Agent McGowan from the SEC. Victoria complains that Conrad is not in jail, but McGowan says that there is no physical evidence that Conrad was complicit in the David Clarke scandal. Victoria tells him that Frank told her he had enough evidence to bury Conrad and McGowan needs to find it. Victoria calls him incompetent and says that she will find the evidence herself.

At The Stowaway, Daniel is brandishing a check at Jack. Uh. Oh.

I THINK SAM THE WONDER DOG HAS RUN OUT OF MAGIC COCOON WATER

Daniel goes on to say that the money is an investment in Jack’s plan to go to Haiti and to find Fauxmanda. He leaves the check beside Jack.

Victoria arrives at Conrad’s Manhattan apartment. She sees a forged painting by Dominik on the wall and remembers watching him paint it as she lie prone on his bed. She enters Conrad’s office and tells him he looks good. He tells her that she looks like “a demonic succubus.”

Conrad tells Victoria that he knows she is the one that sicced the SEC on him and does not believe her when she lies and says she did not. Conrad pours two drinks as Victoria tells him about Charlotte’s counselor wanting a family therapy session. Conrad tells her he wouldn’t miss it and, as Victoria reaches out for the drink, he withdraws it and tells her it’s not for her.

IT’S FOR LYDIA!!

Conrad throws Victoria out.

Declan brings some chick that looks like Fauxmanda minus 10 years to the bar. She’s a tough talker with Fauxmanda swagger as well, saying her uncle had a cop bar where they hung out until her mother won the “slimy rich husband” lottery. MiniFaux wants to flirt but Declan wants to do their Econ project. MiniFaux tells Declan that she just moved from Yonkers which, “for the record, is ten times harder to get out of your system than Oxy.” That’s gotta sting.

Emily and Nolan are reviewing a film of Emily and Daniel in bed – sleeping. She wants Nolan to encrypt it and send an anonymous copy to Conrad. Emily tells Nolan that Conrad will see it as a threat from the WHM and will be forced to reach out to him, causing another meeting whereby Emily can tail him and nail him.

NOLAN ASKS IF HE CAN NAIL HIM FIRST

Nolan expresses concern that Emily is not a killer and that WHM may kill her first. Emily is unconcerned.

Back in Manhattan, Conrad and Lydia are bantering about how precious it is that she is spending his money faster than a toothless whore can drain a . . . oh, never mind.

Conrad sees the tape and calls WHM telling him where and when to meet before she has a chance to say anything. Emily is watching and writes down the address.

    What I don’t understand is how a family like the Graysons don’t have their homes sweeped for bugs/cameras/etc. They claim they are as powerful as they think they are (plus they have the ego for it), they would definitely have it checked out. I knew a family that was extremely wealthy (and therefore rather powerful) and they had monthly sweeps of all their homes and cars. It was odd.

    Sam dying was the first time I have actually felt anything except disgust watching this show. That was so freakin sad.

    I thought Nolan had a bodyguard? Or was that just for one episode? I also think Victoria tampered with what she found in some way, why else would she wait outside the office door. And the look on her face alluded to the fact that she knew Daniel was going to call Conrad. She is setting Conrad up for a bigger fall.

    SO glad this wasn’t the finale and we get more Revennnnge! I can’t get behind this new development with “The Initiative,” which will forever be a reminder of one of the worst Buffy plot lines. I do not need the government secretly fighting vampires on Revenge, thank you.

    Definitely teared up when Sammy died and thought Emanda was about to spill who she really is to Jack. Obvs, Nolan is still alive. Even if he weren’t, I’m sure they’d find some way to bring him back. Also, wtf happened to his security guard? You’d think he’d EXTRA have one after that Tyler mess. Oh, rich people. You are not invincible. Get security.

    @Carol, she looked so heartbroken when Daniel called his dad! Poor Vicky. Always trusting the wrong men and getting the right ones killed.

    I was so hoping that Emanda would tell Jack who she really is. I mean come on, the dog knew, you’d think Jack would have figured it out by now!

    S-Natch, you made me giggle with your swiss rolls and 50 pounds :) I know where that come from :) but I hear you sister, I have about 8 weeks to shed some weight before the MR comes home from deployment…and I can pretty much say, that shit ain’t gonna happen! I have been stuck in the house for a month now, due to my stupid ass falling down the stairs and spraining my ankle….!

    I wonder who Emanda is beating the shit out of next week…I will predict the WHM cause you know Nolan got a 911 text out to her to come and save his ass!

    PS, I liked scruffy Jack alot better then clean shaven Jack…jmo

    I read that Declan is a current trending name for boys in the US. I wonder if this show has anything to do with that??? I am guessing so because I never heard of that name till this show came out. I like the name.

    The things Jack was whispering to Sam as Sam died were so like what I said to my cat when he passed away last October, and what my husband said to his dog when he we lost the dog to cancer. It completely broke my heart…as did seeing Jack and Declan crying together. That was a very real moment.

    On the other side is the revelation of this stupid Initiative. I don’t like the expansion of the conspiracy/crime and the new roster of criminals. It’s now getting X-Filesy, and that will guarantee me losing interest.

    Man, that scene with Jack, Emily and Sam really got me. I started getting teary once Emily walked up on the porch and saw Sam lying there.

    Are we sure that Nolan is ok? That was a creepy ending.

    I like watching Victoria and Conrad getting their digs in. And I still want that chair she sits in.

    @Carol…where I live there are an abundance of Declans and they were all born years before this show began. Might be a regional thing, more popular in some parts of the country than others. I figured they named the character Declan based on the name being popular, not the other way around.

    Re Victoria’s kids–I think Conrad is shooting blanks. I would bet money that both her kids are the result of affairs with the artist and Amanda’s father.

    I LOVE this show! I have been addicted since the first night. Each week it’s something new to make you think and try to figure out. This woman has been plotting for so many years-OH REVENGE is SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!! With all of the stupid shows that are on TV, at least this one always has a surprise! I don’t think that Daniel is a Grayson either. That mother of his is just a nasty whore. What is up with Ashley? How does she know Emily-did it ever explain that? Also, what about the Kung Fu guy?

    Nooooo Sammy! Like y’all, I just thought that scene was heartbreaking. Jack telling Sam that he was his best friend and taught him how to love…WAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!

    Conrad said something to Lydia about marriage – “Third time’s a charm.” Who was his first wife?!?!?

    Emily + Nolan = BFF’S FO LIFE!!!

    I hate Ashley. I hate her and I wish they would kill her off the show.

    I don’t think Daniel is a double agent. I think we will find out he is as ruthless as the rest of the Graysons.

    I want Jack and Emily to be together so bad.
