Ahoy hoy Gasmii! Welcome back for another action-packed, talent-deficient ep of 90210. I have to say, this was the hardest ep to recap to date. Lots of crazy talk. Lots of quick cuts and edits. It's almost like the director knew he was a hack and was trying way too hard to seem like he knew what he was doing...
Previously: Silver goes all Fatal Love/Endless Attraction on Dixon's ass. Annie and Naomi's homance ends before it starts. Kelly chooses "me" but is still pissed that Matthews chose Brenda to bone. In the spirit of choosing, Navid (remember him?) choo-choo-chooses Pregs. Ethan dis-dis-disses Annie. One Afternoon in the Storage Room with Silver opens to mixed reviews. Silver demands Matthews to fasten that loose screw in her head. And, tragically, one merlot bottle goes to that big wine bar in the sky.
High School Teacher Estates. Seconds after hurling a wine bottle at Matthews head, Silver grabs another bottle of wine. Matthews asks Silver how he can fix things. Silver wants Matthews to tell Dixon how he manipulated him and told him lies about her. He offers to call him.
She eyes him suspiciously and when she's distracted he goes for the bottle, James Bond style. They struggle and he finally gets it away from her. The pinot noir lives to inebriate another day. Silver thinks Dixon hated the movie, which is the opposite of what she thought he would feel. She doesn't think she knows Dixon at all. Matthews tries to calm Silver down and suggests calling Kelly. Silver notices her hand is bleeding so Matthews leaves her to get some bandages in the bathroom. She eyes him angrily violently suspiciously. I can't tell, but there is a guitar riff so you know it's not good.
In the bathroom, Matthews looks for bandages behind the 20 bottles of cough syrup in his cabinet. When he returns Silver is gone. He runs out to find her. Silver comes out from under the dining room table and takes off. We get a shot of the name of Matthews' apartment complex...I hope that doesn't mean what I think it does.
Griffith Park. The break up that won't just end. Annie tells Ethan she thought they were meant to be together. Becky calls Annie to tell her about Silver burning down the homecoming float lighting up a bonfire. Ethan asks if everything is OK. Annie snaps at him, then composes herself to tell him about Silver. Since she didn't drive, he offers her a ride home. She begrudgingly accepts. You might want to wipe that disgusted look off your face and thank him.
The next few scenes were a bitch to recap. So here's the gist of it.
Casa Wilson.
Harry & Becky: Boy, what the fuck is going on?
Kelly's.
Kelly: What you talking 'bout Matthews?
Matthews: I'm talking about Silver going to Crazytown and smashing my goddamn window and then bitch making herself at home!
Kelly: Oh hell to the no!
Harry & Becky: You didn't think a big ass tattoo of your lame ass name on some white girl's bony hip was worth mentioning?
Dixon: Don't hate the player, hate the game.
Matthews: Remember that summer you stayed home instead of going to Paris with Donna to be with Silver, then known as Erin? The one where you stole Brenda's BF? Do you remember if you accidentally dropped Silver on her head?
Kelly: No. I think I would remember that.
Matthews: Well, how else do you explain her shitty ass movie?
Dixon: We got a little freak-nasty with a video camera.
Kelly: I hope he brought a blanket.
Harry & Becky: You made a sex video? Make sure you get a good distributor.

WOOHOO!!!!! And Brenda will be back too, right? Isn't that why they hit us over the head with her infertility diagnosis at the same time they produced a pregnant teen?

Terrific recap!=)
I think the blue bottle in Matthew's cough syrup cabinet is foot powder-perhaps Gold Bond?
The whole cough syrup collection made me laugh. No wonder the guy is so laid back!
Also- did some research:
Glasses guy was played by Gideon Emery.
According to his blog,he felt he looked more like James Spader.
I think you are right,he was more Dennis Leary.
Also, the glasses he wore were chosen by Jason Priestly(it appears Gideon wasn't too sure about those glasses either)
Also it made me laugh-perhaps I was wrong. But didn't Pregs try to smile at Sammy and he wailed 'Put it away!'
*snicker*Not everyone likes her smile I guess!
Also-I like Dixon even less and Naomi even more.

Daffymaiden: i don't know. i didn't see her in the previews and they haven't made a big deal about it. could that much awesomeness be allowed?!
hoxharding: james spader?! in what universe. he should just embrace his denis leary-ness. i wonder what the motivation was for the glasses? tis a mystery. you're right about sammy telling her to 'put it away'. it was funny cause it was such a weird thing to say. your feelings regarding naomi are correct.

Quick note on newest episode. I thought it was weird Naomi is wearing a scarf while building houses.
Then, I remembered the actress was in a car accident. They have shown her wearing a neckbrace and a prom dress in some photos.
Maybe this was filmed around the same time.
Also-I don't know why,but I feel like drinking DR PEPPER! Wonder why.:P
