YAYAYAYAYAY! NOW GO GET JACK!!!
Conrad is meeting with WHM. WHM tells him the evidence is with McGowan. He tells Conrad that they have offered Lydia immunity to testify against him, as well. Emily is watching the meeting. WHM picks up the picture containing Emily’s camera and winks into it. WHM advises Conrad to leave town and tells him he is going to the airport himself.
Daniel tells Victoria that he broke things off with Emily. Victoria congratulates Daniel on turning in the evidence. Daniel says he didn’t do it and begs her to not to testify. Victoria says the truth needs to come out because Conrad had David Clarke murdered. Daniel says, “Well, he must have had a damn good reason.” Victoria slaps the shit out of him.
YAY VICKI!!
Daniel piously tells Victoria that at least Conrad’s evil deeds were to protect his family. Victoria calls bullshit. Daniel attacks Victoria over her handling of Charlotte. Victoria says now she has the chance to right a terrible wrong, and even Daniel can’t stand in her way.
Victoria calls Lydia and tells her that she has a very small window in which to protect herself. Lydia passes, telling Victoria she is the enemy, not Conrad. Victoria tells Lydia Conrad will turn on her as soon as the money runs out.
Conrad walks in and Lydia lies that her father had a heart attack and she needs to go back to Philadelphia immediately. Lydia says she will meet him, but he insists his driver can take her. They both know what’s going on.
AND CONNY GIVES HER THE GODFATHER KISS O’ DEATH
Nolan pops some bubbly and congratulates Emily on bringing justice to her dad. Nolan tells her the only thing left is Jack. She tells Nolan that she is going to tell Jack everything and calls him. Emily tells him she found Sammy’s collar and asks if she can come over. He says he would love that. Emily and Nolan toast her dad.
Conrad and MiniFaux (who, apparently, is named Jaime), are in the school library. Everyone starts snickering and looking at them. A message pops up on the computer with Jamie looking like a fugitive from T&T. It says, “Click here to find the truth about Jaime Cardaci. The pic opens to a family portrait and Jaime is saying, “I like older men who have families.”
There are more pictures of Jaime and the older man kissing passionately. She says, “The judge was supposed to bury this. I was a minor.” She tells Declan it was her history teacher.
Declan sees Charlotte gloating and tells her, “You thought you lowered yourself to date me? Clearly, I lowered myself to date you.” Charlotte tells Declan she did him a favor. He tells her never to speak to him again.
Victoria arrives at Emily’s house. Victoria tells Emily that she is “sorry” Emily and Daniel broke up. Emily tries to give Victoria’s engagement gift back, but she asks Emily to open it, instead. It is empty. Victoria tells her she knew all along that Emily had no future with Daniel.
Emily arrives at The Stowaway and I become sore afraid that Fauxmanda has returned. She watches Jack through the window before coming inside. Emily returns the collar –
FUCK!
DOUBLE FUUUUCK!!
Jack offers to walk Emily to her car, but she refuses.
Back at Grayson Manor, Daniel is contemplating drinking again when Ashley shows up with a six pack of Little Debbies, a box of Jello, and some condoms with holes poked in them. She offers “condolences” regarding Emily.
Victoria comes in to say goodbye to Charlotte because she is going to Washington. Charlotte asks Victoria if getting retribution has ever made her feel good about herself. Victoria answers yes when the other person deserved it, and, if they didn’t, fuck ‘em anyway.
If you like it, spread it!:

I sooooo look forward to your updates!!! Love the part about Ashley showing up with a six pack of Little Debbies and condoms with holes poked in them!! Classic!!
Have a great summer!
Loved your recap on the Sister Wives’ Polygamist Date Night episode too!!! Thank you for always making me laugh
Great fast reap S-Natch! I wonder if WHM will ever get a name. That was horribly shady for Charlotte to do that to MiniFAux, isn’t she only Declan’s partner for a school project? I’m sorry I wouldn’t have chloroformed myself under the instructions of the person who KILLED MY FATHER…blindfold would have workedI don’t think Vikki is dead we never saw her get on the plane. I’m hoping that either Faux is pretending to be pregnant or pregnant by someone else. Best line of the night was Nolan’s revengey comment. OMGWTFHDHGDUAGHS her mom is alive and let David have a years long relationship with VIkki? What is her part in the Initiative?
@ Kate – Thanks so much! I love doing the recaps ’cause of people like you!
@Moli – I. KNOW. !!!!!!! I wondered how they were going to keep our attention and they damn sure did it!
Why does ‘The Initiative’ sound so familiar? The plot right now is seeming very deja vu-y, maybe another tv show or movie.
I really don’t think Victoria is dead. With the way it was edited and shown, and the fact we didn’t see it take off and/or explode. I think Victoria stopped it from taking off and got off but then it still took off and boom. I do hope that Charlotte is gone. They both can’t die, only one.
I really hope Faux is faking or it is not Jacks. That character really annoys me (so does the actress).
I don’t think the show has jumped the shark yet. I do think it is balancing on a old rickety wooden board over the tank. Depending on where it goes in the first couple of episodes of the next season will determine if it jumps over or not.
Yuppers my thoughts went to the Darma Initiative
I wouldn’t have minded if Declan was on the plane with Fauxmanda. Thanks for the great recaps!
Ms. Cool he doesn’t bother me anymore. He dropped that horrible accent and has been and overall good guy.
I like Declan more now that he dropped the accent, too. Looks like he temporarily grew a backbone, but he will be hobbled with guilt now over Charlotte. REALLY wish Fauxmanda was on the flight, though!!!
I didn’t say it before, while I wish Charlotte and Faux were on the plane…we need Charlotte for whenever Emily comes clean. I agree Declan will feel guilty over Charlotte’s’ attempted suicide, He’s been so noble lately.
I can’t imagine they would kill Victoria. She’s too important. And Charlotte being Emily’s half-sister should really keep her around, too.
Carol- “The Initiative” was the gov’t org that Riley was a part of when Buffy the Vampire Slayer went to college. But the “OMG, my mom is alive?!” is pure ‘Alias.’
awww junk!!!!!!!!!!!
This was the bomb!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So excited for next season. I saw the plane thing coming when they were walking toward it. Still very cool and fitting. Even though they were trying to do the right thing, karma none the less.
WHM said to Emily when they were fighting “You are a fighter like your mother.” I picked up on that when he said it. I knew that meant something like he knew her mother and maybe he killed her mother or something like that.
I like Charlotte and Declan and want them both to stick around and get back together. Also want Emanda and Charlotte to have their eventual reunion.
Oh good points about the plane and Victoria maybe not being on it. I think Conrad knew that the plane was going to be blown up. Just the way he was acting toward Lydia when he realized what she was going to do…..
I was not happy that she let WHM live. Sorry but when you seek revenge there is no place for regrets or compassion. I would have killed him. He knows who she is!!!!!!!!!!! You can’t let him live at that point. He will reveal her.
That was awesome!! The recap and the episode! @ Moli – that’s what I first thought of too, the Darma Initiative from Lost. I was soo mad when I saw Fauxmanda standing there pregnant. There was so much going on and so many questions that were not answered. I can’t wait till next season. Why are all my shows using the same premise? Grimm (mom’s still alive), now Emily’s mom is still alive. The best part was when she broke up with Daniel. I can’t stand him.
Thank goodness I’m not the only one who can’t stand that waste of space Daniel. HE is the one that should have been on the plane…my dislike for him is up there with David from OUaT.
Totally agree about Daniel – the one time I have been on Vicki’s side all season is when she slapped his self-righteous face!! I felt like there were a lot of “nods” to other shows/movies in this show – especially this episode. The Princess Bride, Goldeneye, another James Bond that escapes me at the moment, and the ones you all have mentioned. Don’t know if writers are clever or lazy. Made me want to tune in next season, though, so it worked!
It’s like Daniel has absolutely NO personality. He’s just a waste of space to me, and I’m glad others agree. I was sooo happy when Emily gave him back the ring (And what was up with Victoria and the empty gift box, lol?) . I was so hoping that Jack and Emily would be together, and if that freaking Fauxmanda hadn’t shown up – that’s exactly what would have happened. One last comment, I love Nolan’s character! He comes up with the best lines!!
I also love me some Nolan! And Jack! and Declan!!
I liked Daniel at first. At first he seemed sweet and like a good person. Then this whole shift to being Conrad 2.0 is pissing me off. I would have broke up with him too. So want Amanda and Jack to be together!!!!!!!!! They are probably going to drag it out a long time before they get back together though. I kinda hate when shows do that like on Castle. Boo. Just screw already! Life is too short!
I love this show!!! Thanks a bunch for recapping it and for the cute kitty porn. Have a wonderful break, hon!!!!
@ LAC – Thanks!! I loves me some kitteh porn! See you in the comments!
At first, I was completely on the side of “Victoria’s really dead and if they do a fake-out it will be such a let down” because it was SUCH a bold move for the show. Now that I think on it, Conrad said to her “If you get on that plane that’s the last thing you’ll do”, there’s just NO way Vic doesn’t read into that! I mean, yes, the fake death is such a cliche, but I feel that’s okay with this show. This show manages not to take itself too seriously while also delivering a KILLER season finale!
I may need to watch again, but I never got the feeling that revealing that Amanda’s mom being alive meant that she was STILL alive. I hope so, because that gives the show the opportunity to cast an awesome new character for us to love/hate.
If the show was intending to make us hate Daniel, bravo. I never liked him all that much and now I hope he’s crushed in whatever fallout we see in the next season.
I liked Daniel in the beginning, he seemed like the Anti-Grayson….but he’s changed and I also loved when Victoria slapped his slimy face. I hate Ashley so if those two end up together, they deserve each other. I don’t know WHY Emily didn’t tell Jack she’s the real Amanda DESPITE the fact that the bitch we all hate was standing there prego – they BOTH lied to him! I think he’d rather be with the real Amanda than some piece of white trash who doesn’t deserve him. Guess that would be too easy and they need to keep us watching. That being said, Victoria is very much alive – She and Nolan are the BEST characters on the show!!!
I think the show would suffer overall with Victoria. Madeline Stowe is amazing.
I don’t think the baby is Jack’s. Think about it……She looked pretty pregnant there. Like maybe what? 6 months at least? It was Winter and the show started on Memorial Day. But fakemanda did not show up till after that like in June or July. So…….I mean it could happen but I think she might have been preggo before from her stripper days. I could be totally off though.
That or the whole damn thing is fake and she is not even pregnant.
Fauxmanda DID spend a lot of time under Takeda’s watch – maybe she’ll give birth to a little Asian bay-bay!!
I was thinking the same thing, S-Natch, about Takeda and Fauxmanda
Oh, S-Natch, I’m not even through page 1 and I have to comment. My husband’s been away on buisness for the past few months and this was the first episode he’d watched. He broke out the “My name is Amanda Clarke. You killed my father. Prepare to die.” before he even knew the backstory! Thanks for the screencap of Westley. Be still my heart. My black lab’s named after him. Fav. Movie. Everrrrrrrr! okay back to the recap!
Okay, all done reading. First off, I LOVE Nolan so much. Second, I wonder if WHM (Bill Buchanan) knows where Ems mom is and has some reason to keep EManda’s secret. Third, Daniel…Ugh, I always wanted to believe that he was just naive, but damn, he turns out to have not fallen far from the tree. Four, UGH I was SO looking forward to Ems spilling the beans to Jack. Damn Fauxmanda and her fauxJack baby.
I think that’s it. Cant wait for the next season to see how the story progresses. I know I’m in the minority but I hate Victoria andwant to see her go down. Her “love” for David, to me, is bs. She went along with him being framed as a terrorist, but is pissed that he was murdered?? Just doesnt jibe with me.
I’m thinking (and hoping) Fauxmanda’s baby daddy is Tyler. They spent quite a lot of time alone in that barn, before he was killed. Handcuffs & a $5,000.000.00 check, sure could get my juices flowing……I mean her…HER juices flowing.
ooh good point bshter!
i love Charlotte’s face! that is very beauty.. i love when she say “Oops” and when she say “i think my mom is… is dead” cool!
