REVENGE: Lil Aiden Got His Feelings Hurt

Wow – this video is more significant than I thought.  RIP Adam Yauch

Coming for the Sabotage!

Due to the Golden Globes experience and some personal, familial issues, I am going to take a different take on the recap this week. Let’s do the most ridiculous/significant moments from this episode:

Voiceover/Title Name Explanation: FAIL

Really? Are we doing this every week? From here to eternity? With a flashback?  (Again the flashback within a flashback – hello, Ringer!)  You know – this framing device encapsulates the entire problem that Revenge has: it set itself up in such a brilliant manner that there is no way that it cannot disappoint. Emily can’t cross off faces every week – there’s not enough faces. And now there aren’t enough deadly sins and profound definitions to suffice.

Aiden’s Pouting RE: Ems/Daniel’s Re-canoodle: FAIL

This part was cute though

Wait – Emily and Aiden are working together, right? So – they should be on the same proverbial page – right? So what’s the prob, slob? Get it together, Aiden! We like you because you DON’T pout and you DO do awesome James Bond impersonations – out of nowhere! Kudos – Aiden – even if it was a blatant audition.

Emily’s Ga-gorgeous Party Dress: SUCCESS

This was a good look

I mean, really. This reminded me of why these costume people kick serious ass (as they do every week, fo’ sho’). It was awesome and it was perfect for the event.

Miss Initiative’s Creepy Lair Where She Sits All Day and Watches Daniel?: SUCCESS

Wow, lady – you must be batshit crazy to sit in a room watching this simpleton all day. But you get vital information maybe 2 or 3 times a week. But he probably sex-Skypes Ashley most hours of the day. But I bet the darkness is good for your migraines. But I bet you really want to be drinking sangria with your wife. (OH YES I DID!)  The creep factor saves you.

Jack In Jail: SUCCESS

“Go get your groove back, girl!”

Don’t get crazy. y’all! Jack in jail reignited Amanda as FAUXMANDA! Hell-er! Faux was awesome this week! The watch, the gun, the threat to Skeevy #2. She kicked ass – again.  She trashed it up as only she can.  

Victoria Using Conrad’s Rival to Bid on a Bottle of Wine While Her Son Tries To Bid on the Same Bottle of Wine while Conrad Decides To Run For Office (btw – what office? Crossing guard? Dog catcher? Mayor? PRESIDENT?)…this could go on and on…um: FAIL

“I know!  I’ll get the guy from Nip/Tuck!” ???

Right? I feel like this whole thing was a no-starter and that Conrad needed something to do – besides put on shorts.
