Chuck is getting it on with the ballerina until she bites him on the shoulder. He realizes that he's slept with this girl before. He leaves to get a drink and barges in on Jenny's Monopoly game to brag about his conquest. Jenny is embarrassed and asks Wes to meet her in the elevator so they can take a walk. Then she reminds Chuck that he's a miserable excuse for a human being.
Jenny: Remember when you attacked me at the Kiss on the Lips party? You suck.
Chuck: I'm rubber and you're glue.
But we sense that maybe her words do hurt him a little. Chuck Bass might have a heart after all. A heart of stone, but a heart none the less.
Blair finds Nate at the party and asks if everything is okay.
Blair: Nate, what happened?
Nate: It was so weird! I was Matthew Perry and I had a family and hated my life, but now I'm 17 again!
Blair: Nate, combing your hair forward does not make you Zac Efron.
Nate: Sorry, I keep forgetting.
He then talks about the grandpa again. I trusted him blah blah blah family sucks blah blah blah I'm not sorry blah blah blah. Blair supports his decision. I think her heart grew three sizes that day. Unfortunately, when she leaves to get her coat, Grandpa apologizes to Nate. He says he turned his father in, but it was for his own good. Really. Let's start over. I'm Grandpa, nice to meet you.
Nate seems to have a change of heart. He's just so tired of people lying to him. Well in that case, says Gramps, let me tell you a little story about a girl named Blair...
The Seder continues to drag on with no one knowing what the hell is going on. Serena, when did you get back together with Dan? Is he really your boyfriend? Why is everyone talking over Cyrus? Why are you dressed like a waiter? Finally Dan admits he's a waiter and that he and Serena are not really together. Sorry I tried to help earn money for college, Dad. Lily asks Serena to join her in the other room.
Nate tells Blair he knows she sold him out. What proceeds is a whiney, overdramatic explanation of what happened. She begs for another chance, but her voice is so piercing that I can hardly listen. I'm guessing Nate feels the same way. He leaves her alone with the limo.
Serena and Lily have the weirdest mother-daughter talk ever. This is my very accurate summary.
Lily: You're a bad, bad person. Be a good person.
Serena: I'm not a bad person. Please trust me.
Lily: I don't think you're a bad person. I trust you. You got into Brown. Yay!
Serena: I did? Really? Holla!
Lily: Now about that Gabriel...
Serena: It's a mess.
Lily: Messy relationships are the best!
The other girl hired to work at the Seder informs the two that the hot guy from dinner just left. Serena leaves immediately to catch up with him. She apologizes but says she's not ready for marriage. Gabriel laughs. What are you talking about? We're probably not married. That was probably just a gardener pretending to be a priest. You know how gardeners are. All is well and I think they are officially boyfriend/girlfriend. Just as they start kissing, overdramatic Blair makes her entrance. She's crying. Serena embraces her. Gabe's like, You've got to be kidding me.
Nate shows up at Chuck's place and they both drink their troubles away. They MUST be drunk because Chuck keeps using phrases like "it's stupid for you to want her to be anything other than she is" and "she just needs someone to believe in her." Who talks like that? Not even women talk like that.
The Seder is finally over. Before Lily and Rufus leave, Rufus tells Dan that he's sold some art to the snooty guy AND he now plans on selling his gallery and changing careers altogether. Tootles!
Serena and Blair have girl time and B pores her heart out about what a fool she is and how much she cares for Nate. Then she busts out with the winning line of the show, "Who was that tall snack you were devouring outside?" Love it. Want it. Gonna start using it. Serena is vague about who Gabriel is and Eleanor tells Blair someone is waiting for her downstairs. She thinks it's Cyrus (as if it's gonna be anyone other than Nate).

I was hoping the inevitable experimental girl on girl storyline was going to heat up when Blair was laying between Serena's legs. No dice. Do the hairstylists hate Serena/Blake because her hair was looking pretty awful?

The nightmare was a knock-off of "My Fair Lady". It even had the same crappy cockney accents. All of Blaire's dreams/nightmares are set like Audrey Hepburn movies. Anyway great recap!

Oh and I hate Serena can the next storyline be about Georgina Killing here and having extensive plastic surgery to take over her life? I noticed on the previews that Georgie was back.
