Penelope and the other minions spot Jenny on the street and swarm her, bitching that they saw her try to save Vanessa before the lights went on. Annoyed, Jenny snaps that she thinks they're all pathetic, and Penny taunts that it's easy to talk big when you're hiding out in Brooklyn. Jenny agrees, and declares that maybe she'll see them around more. Looks like someone's coming back to school, to which I saw thank God. Jenny's not my favorite any day, but her fashion storyline has been intolerable. Bring her back to Constance and fighting with Blair and the minions any day of the week.
Chuck goes back inside and finds Blair, who's moodily staring at the dopplegangers and the other dancers. He asks her to dance with him, and she protests, reminding him of his statement weeks ago that they can't be together because they would lose everything they have. He gently tells her to shut up and dance with him, because they could have tonight if they take it. Bemused, Blair silently follows him onto the floor. It's not nearly as good as when he got her to dance with him at Lily and Bart's wedding, but cute nonetheless.
It's the end of the night, so Lexi's whispering sweet nothings in Dan's ear about whips, restraints and nipple clamps while he laughs uncomfortably and lamely suggest they say goodbye to Serena and Aaron before leaving. Just then, S and A show up, and Serena asks to speak to Dan privately for a moment. Once alone, she apologizes for her earlier behavior, and after a few moments of awkward staring at the floor, they both admit that the time they first had sex was the best night of their lives, and now going to have sex with other people feels like they're severing a huge and final bond. You know what would have made this less uncomfortable? Not talking to your ex about who you're going to bone later that night! Idiots.
Meanwhile, Lily gets a phone call from a restricted number, and her jaw drops when she answers it and hears the other person speaking. Of course, we have no idea what the hell is going on. She runs up to Lily and Dan, interrupting them, and reveals that Bart's been in an accident. Okay, looks like our death predictions were true, Gasmii.
So what did you think? I thought this episode was pretty damn awesome, especially compared to the recent ones we've been dealing with. Do you think Bart's a dead man? Will he have a chance to reveal Lily's secret before he dies, or will the PI look for someone else to pay him for the information? Is there a potential future for Blair and Chuck afterall? Are they hinting at Dan and Serena reuniting? Will Jenny return to Constance? And what the hell IS Lily's secret? I'm still going with Rufus's love child as my guess.

Yayyy punctual recap!
I loved this episode (well, compared to what we've been getting). The altercations between Blair and Chuck give me hope for the[ir] future, and I like the Bart-Lily possible split as it kind of shakes up the familial situation a bit.
Omg, do you really think Bart is dead??? If he does end up dead, I think we'll be seeing him one last time, maybe on life support in the hospital next ep or something.
Also, totally agree with you on Ed Westwick's looks. He's like that girl from Seinfeld, who looks really attractive in certain lighting, but then when she's under like a tunnel or something she looks ugly.

Ooh I'd just like to add that when V and N ended up together I screamed my head off.
Vanessa committed a criminal offense, STEALING JENNY'S MAIL, and Nate is still en amour with her. Jenny, what, makes the bottom of her dress transparent? Barely embarrassing, let alone humiliating. And I don't understand why Jenny sticks up for Vanessa to the Blair-ettes. "Vanessa is twice the person you'll ever be"? Only if the worth of a man were measured in the amount of '80s memorabilia he possessed.

can you imagine how amazingly diabolical theyre children would be?
ahahah=]=]
and vanessa and nate??!
wtf... though i suppose they deserve each other cuz they're both raging idiots.
and i agree Lolo.. i wish i had seen some nairtini action going on... and least then a bald vanessa would be more like her character from the books...
and possibly more interesting then the boring idiot she is
