90210: Tell Me Lies, Tell Me Sweet Little Lies

This week on 90210, Borianna abuses, Annie loses and Dixon and Liam compete for the title of most annoying character. Which means it's not Annie for once. In other news, Mones questions the existence of God.

Writing this bad can only be the work of one man.

Casa Wilson. Harry finds Dixon sulking playing some video game in his room. Good news! He was able to pull some strings and get Dixon back on the surf team. Dixon thanks him but, since he missed so many practices, he should suffer the consequences. Yeah, Harry so maybe "pulling some strings" isn't the life lesson he needs to learn right now.

The real issue is that Dixon is mad at himself for fighting with Toothy instead of supporting her. He's been trying to get a hold of her but she won't answer or return his calls. Harry suggests that she's trying to move on. Dixon insists it's because she's devastated. How is he supposed to just go surfing and be happy while she's miserable?

He seems to be enjoying that video game just fine.

Down in the kitchen, Harry shares his concerns to Becky. Becky continues with the completely idiotic theory that Dixon would be more miserable if he found out Toothy lied and manipulated him. She was right about the pregnancy, she's right about this. Yeah, Becky, you're on quite a winning streak.

Tropic of Cancer. In an ironic twist of fate, Silver hands Jackie some drugs. She goes over Jackie's schedule for the next day. Jackie wonders when Silver got so organized. She's always been organized. Remember the zoo field trip in the 5th grade? All the plays she stage managed for?

Look Silver, you should be happy she even remembers having a daughter.

Can someone tell me the last time Jackie appeared on BH90210? When the hell did she get back on drugs again?

West Bev. Silver and Naomi chill in the quad talking about Jamie's bulge...or something like that. Naomi wonders what time Silver's half-birthday party is on Saturday. Oh yeah, remember that? Still stupid. With everything going on with Jackie, she's decided not to have a party.

Speaking of party-poopers, here comes Borianna. She's doing a lot better. She apologizes for being such a mess. Silver's happy to see she's doing well but has to take off. Borianna slowly asks Naomi how Silver's doing? A question she would know the answer to if she wasn't feeling so goddamn sorry for herself and getting high. Mom dying of cancer trumps break-up with skinny jean wearing nerd. Naomi breaks the tragic news about Silver's half-birthday. They agree to get Silver a gift certificate for a massage but Borianna gave all her money to Jazz-Hands is short on money. Naomi hands her $150 to get drugs the gift certificate.

"Now don't go spending it all on one drug dealer now, OK?"

So no one's going to notice her slurred speech, huh? Alright...

Liam catches up to Matthews in the hall. He tells him he didn't hit on Jen and adds that she's a psychotic bitch. I guess for good measure. Nice. Matthews doesn't want to hear it. Maybe Papa John was right about Liam, he is a bad seed.

Liam angrily heads over to his locker. Straw-Hat pops up to share a delightful anecdote about being dared to eat 10 butter packets. Such a lady. Liam's not in the mood. She senses his bubbling rage and asks what's wrong. He tells her to back off; she's not his girlfriend.

Sure fire way to get him? Less butter packets, more conditioner.

Elsewhere, Naomi tries to convince Silver to have her party. Not because she deserves to celebrate but because Naomi got this hot dress. Simi pops up and is filled in on the half-birthday stupidness. Naomi leaves to meet Jamie but tells Silver to think about it. "My dress is...picture lots of cleavage, excellent ass. It's amazing." Bye Naomi, we'll miss you.

Simi doesn't quite peg Silver as the half-birthday type. (God, I can't wait to stop typing that.) So the behind the music on the half-birthdays is this: For Silver's 10th birthday she invited all her friends over for backyard camping extravaganza. On the day of, Jackie got trashed and she had to cancel. It wasn't the first time, but it was the last straw. She then decided to give up on birthdays. "Too many expectations." Simi wonders about the half-birthdays. She claims that if you don't high expectations you can't get let down. OK. But you're still celebrating your birthday in some way. You just moved it 6 months later?

"Yup, still stupid."

Aw man, what an episode. Very after-school special.

Poor Silver, her Mom isn't gonna make a birthday afterall. Seeing Mom dead should mess her up for more fun storylines. What will the clever writers think of next?

I didn't catch the poster on Creepy's wall...or his drawings...yikes.

Your recap was hilarious (as always) and as always, I appreciate them!!!!

LOL
I gave up watching this mess, but your recaps are my new addiction! Kinda like you quit smoking and start enjoying chocolate instead ;)
