I bet Elton loves this show.  And what is up with that hat?

OK, you guys – we have a LOT to talk about. Firstly, let me just put it out there, the past two weeks have pretty much changed up the whole REVENGE game, amirite? I try to stay out of the “BIZ” blogs, but it seems like the writers got a few comments and did some serious correctional writing to save our show. I’m sure they were getting the negative feedback.


Its’s like they don’t care about disguised Amanda/Emily anymore!  Whateva! 

And voila! Helen Crowley is “Audi”, the Stowaway situation has been resolved, Aiden’s sister is dead, etc., etc, etc. I do believe somebody got the memo.

And now this week brings us to the pinnacle of the reaping. Our favorite punching bag/spunky up’n’comer/lovable instigator/juvie girl has been sunk. RIP Fauxmanda – the real Emily Thorne.

 


You have to admit, haters, she had her moments!

So – here’s what happened. Jack and Fauxmanda have been having sex on the SS Amanda. Like, the top of it – the deck of it. Um, isn’t that dangerous and isn’t your mattress a weird thing to have stowed on your boat? Whatevs, they are in love so anything is possible…(foreshadowing) -


What?  They’re doin’ it.  Leave ‘em alone!

Victoria, meanwhile, is reveling in her sexless marriage – AND supporting Conrad in his ridiculous bid for governor. Really, dude? But she has a party to plan, so who cares?

Nolan, Emily, and Aiden decide to have an video chat in the middle of the bar – cause, you know that’s the best place to have a video chat, Nolan! Nols tells them to keep away from Padma. Aw, how romantic.

My favorite scene of the night – Ashley trying to be cool and snaking (meant to type snEaking, but it will stay) into Ems’ house and warning her about Faux and her potential downfall.

OK, let’s talk – was this sweet? An old friendship callback? A guilt thing? I thought it gave Ashley something to do, so I loved the scene. Especially Emily’s f’off attitude.  Uh-yeah, she’s been f’ing your ex-fiance – and his father! Daniel got mad at his mommy and daddy…yawn.

Meanwhile, on the ill-fated love cruise – Jack finds some random cigs – which…what? He stowed his cigs in the masting? Er – why? Faux goes down to the hull, is take hostage, and THEN has the audacity to take her back upstairs for cell reception. I mean, this guy is a real jerk.

Yes, I do mean you, Mr. Trucco!

Back on land – Ems takes a look at Charlotte’s pictures (Charlotte – something needs to change – your dresses or your acting, one of the two). She sees RyBro #2 in the hull of the Amanda (ew, get your mind out of the gutter!) – so she knows something is up! Time to charter up a boat and bring on some RINGER realness!


I mean, its like they’re twins on a boat or something!  Amazing!

RyBro #2 calls Conrad and they fight about the laptop that Faux had taken from Ems hiding place. Or something. Connie tells him to kill Faux, but not Jack! Whatevs, they fight about the laptop – Declan’s, Amanda’s, whomever’s…but Nolan does eventually hack into the laptop and gets their bearings on the boat.

    i HOPE we’re back on track. i’m just concerned there will continue to be some stupid emily/jack story that noooooo one needs or wants. i’d rather he have gone down with the ss amanda than fauxmanda. but at least that annoying ryan brother is also gone, and that means THAT storyline is over — THANK GOD!!!

    I was just starting to like Fauxmanda too. I wanted to punch her bc I thought she was going back for the seaglass necklace from Jack. My heart melted when I realized it was Em’s.

    How creepy was that pic of Ry-Bro #2? It was like in the Grudge, when you see that lady hiding in every pic.

    Ashley looks like she’s auditioning for Jackie O.

    When Exactly did Faux get shot? I remember her going back for the necklace, and then RYbro#2 flipping open his zippo, but when did he shoot her?

    Looking forward to March 3rd or 10th when ever it gets back on…Em’s is totes going all Revengie again! I hope she brings out the Red Sharpie of Doom!

    I don’t think Faux got shot. In think it she was hit by something from the boat when it blew up….

    Faux rocked this episode. I hope they address Ashley being saved from being a whore (so to speak) by Ems….

    I want to hang out with Nolan. Between the two of us the snarky-ness would be off the charts!!!!

    I’m super sad Faux died :( . She had moments where she was stupid and reckless, but she was still great in my book. It should have been Declan!

    I don’t think he shot her. I think she got burned or hurt in the explosion was how it seemed to me. Jack got shot.

    Yeah I remember Jack getting shot. But When Em’s pulled Faux into the raft she was holding her stomach. I guess it could have been from when the boat exploded..She was pretty bad ass the last couple episodes.

    I am still pretty pissed we have to wait 3 weeks for the show to be on again!

    I was very sad to see Fauxmanda die, but I was fully expecting she and Nate to be the ones to go down with the boat. I hated her in season one, but I began to love her this season. Strong, bad ass women on television shows are rare, and \Revenge\ had three (Victoria, Emily, Fauxmanda), and it was really enjoyable to me to see how they played off of each other and showed three very different approaches to the same thing – being ruthless when it comes to revenge and protecting their families (or the memory of them, in Emily’s case). Victoria is the perfect ice queen with goons (I love that she killed Helen by herself, though, showing how ferocious she can be without a checkbook and a thug), Emily is the calculated, almost sociopathic master of faking nice and being a bad ass in disguise, and Fauxmanda was the perfect foil for both of them. She was reckless and loud and did not try to perform like the other two, making her confrontations with Victoria awesome and leaving us wondering if Emily involving her in anything would make things worse or better. I’ll miss her in-your-face unpredictability. I like that Helen was a strong, powerful woman, but Victoria shooting her was one of my favorite scenes from the entire series. I still don’t trust Padma, and I wish she, Ashley, Declan, and Charlotte would have been on the boat (and that Jack would have gone down with it). Everybody watches for the scenes with Victoria, Emily, Conrad, Nolan, and Daniel. The others just take away screen time from better characters. I still don’t understand why Ashley is even on the show, unless they have major plans for her down the road with that hooker thing. I wish she had been on that plane somehow and they had kept Lydia, if a slut who trades barbs with Victoria is now her purpose. She’s no match.
