Frobisher's baaaaack!!
And he's more of a wuss than ever!
We open on a friendly little gathering between Ellen and Katie in the Mustard-Colored Hotel Room of Secrets. Ellen, of course, immediately offers Katie a drink from her well-stocked bar, but Katie declines. Apparently, they're going to go see a movie. Also apparently, no one ever told Katie that tights aren't pants (where are you when we need you, Blair Waldorf?).
Burgeoning alcoholic Ellen mixes herself a big strong drink, which is probably a good idea because Katie immediately hands her the deposit for her and David's old apartment. Way to get that right out there, Katie. Ellen looks a little stunned, but luckily the three layers of Rum haze surrounding her protects her from most of the emotional damage. "I thought that I'd go back there one last time," Ellen says. Katie, showing a little decency for the first time since season one, episode one, advises against that. "It feels like that apartment's all that I've got left of him," Ellen says. Well, at least you have four tubes of extra-dark eyeliner and this fun, glowing new taste for revenge to fall back on now.

Another day, another Patty Hewes television appearance. This time she's on Fox News to bash Walter Kendrick and UNR. "Arthur Frobisher has nothing on Walter Kendrick," Patty tells the news lady, whose name I would know if I watched FOX News. She says that Kendrick and UNR have systematically ravished the environment. And the environment liked it. I mean, look at this guy:

Then Patty continues to completely Pwn the interview, telling the news lady about Aracite and UNR's efforts to hide the toxin from the public. She then brings up the report made by Daniel Purcell, saying that the only person to ever speak up against Aracite found his wife murdered.
"Miss Hewes, are you implying that Walter Kendrick is responsible for a murder?" The quick-on-the-uptake news lady asks. "Implying?" Patty responds with a Patty smile, "I hope that's not what this sounds like, Greta. I'm stating it outright."
"You see the secret, Greta, is to lather, rinse, then repeat. I know, so simple, right? Yet so true."
Then we see Busty and Kendrick at the bar, discussing the Patty Hewes interview. Busty says they have to take Patty seriously - ever since Frobisher the public has been listening to her. "Arthur Frobisher is a narcissistic dipshit who stumbled his way into billions," Kendrick says. I trust that Karma will provide retribution for that statement, sir.
Busty says they have to shut up Patty. Apparently their stock price fell after the interview. Busty wants to sue her for defamation, but Kendrick declines like a little bitch. His solution? "Ignore it til it goes away." Genius. Who made this guy CEO again? "She accused you of murder," Busty says.
7 WEEKS EARLIER flash. We see Kendrick answer his phone all shady-like in the backseat of a car. "Is everything taken car of?" He asks. The person on the other end is Freaky Darrell Hammond, being freaky and wearing white latex gloves in Daniel Purcell's kitchen. He's looking down at something. "Not yet," he says. Kendrick gives him further instructions that we can't hear. Wait - does that mean Christine may have been still alive??
Back to Kendrick in the bar. He has "I AM a murderer" shame in his eyes, but it doesn't last very long.
Over at Hewes and Associates, Tommy is following Patty around the office and grilling her on her decision to accuse UNR of murder on national television. She tells him this makes it personal. She then asks Tommy for a complete background on Claire Maddox (that thing's gonna be pretty long, especially if it focuses on all the time she spends ON her back...I'm sorry, that was terrible.)
And yet possibly justified, as we flash to Busty and Daniel Purcell in a hotel room. And I'm pretty sure they haven't been playing Scategories all night. Or if that IS Scategories, then I've been playing it wrong...They, also, are discussing Patty Hewes. Purcell says she's on a war path since he humiliated her in court. Can you blame her, dude? Busty is pissed that Daniel didn't mention his history with Patty. By "history" I assume she means "That time you banged and then spawned an illegitimate child."

I'm glad you mentioned that Ellen is getting too skinny. A couple episodes ago she was wearing a sleeveless blue & black ensemble and I swear her upper arm looked the same size as her wrist. Someone needs to put down the bottle and pick up some burgers.
