Dan arrives at school and catches up to Serena to suggest she finally meet Sarah -- but Serena can't because she, Lily and Eric are taking advantage of the opportunity to have a Bass-free dinner that night. Spying Chubs through a window jamming his tongue down Jenny's throat, Dan growls and pouts until Serena suggests Dan make an effort to get to know Chubs before he blindly hates him. Heading outside, Dan turns the corner and sees Chubs clearly making out with a mystery someone. A mystery someone who definitely has a penis... and is definitely Eric! Wow! I know most of us had pegged Eric as the gay character, but I like the Chubs twist. Ducking out of sight, Dan waits for Chubs to leave to catch a glimpse of the other party, but Eric has already disappeared. It's worth noting that we briefly see that Georgina is standing around near the school, stalking Dan and/or Serena, but it's unclear what, if anything, she saw...
How someone this unattractive gets this much ass is beyond me. It's like he's Criss Angel or something.
Back at the Palace, a frumpy Lily is going over wedding arrangements -- including that Eliot Spitzer should be seated as far away from Serena and her friends as possible. Seriously, Jenny is only a hop, skip and a jump away from turning to prostitution to fund her lifestyle. Rufus pops up out of nowhere to surprise Lily -- looks like he's finally getting a storyline other than being a pathetic nag. Oh wait, I spoke too soon -- he's there to whine about Jenny and get Lily's advice. Sure, since she's been racking up those mother of the year awards. Lily magnanimously allows him to tag along with her while she runs wedding errands, and with a wag of his tail, Rufus hops in the limo.
Meanwhile. Dan's stalking Chubs and pulls him aside to confront him on the whole cheating/penis issue. Chubs of course denies the allegation, and throws in the threat of popping Jenny's cherry at his party that night (his words, not mine... who says that?!). This activates protective older brother syndrome, and Jenny runs up shrieking just as Dan's about to land a punch in Chubs' bloated face. Before Dan can tell Jenny what he saw, Chubs smoothly invites Jenny to his country house for the weekend. Dan tries again to get out the truth, only for Jenny to call him jealous and then randomly insult the quality of his clothing. Hey dipshit, you have the same parents, and can afford the same things - assuming no one's breaking the law. She grabs Chubs and runs away, leaving Dan to puzzle over what a heinous bitch his sister has become.
At the Met, Blair is whining to Serena about not being invited to Chubs' party that night. Blair suggests a girls' night out, and when Serena mentions the family dinner, Blair reminds her that Serena promised to be there for her. Oh, Blair, expecting Serena to not be self-involved is like expecting you not to be a bitch. Ain't gonna happen. Before she can push her point, Dan arrives to complain about Jenny. What a fun trio. As Blair and Dan trade a few barbs -- who else would like to see that hookup happen? -- Dan realizes that the way Jenny will believe the story about Chubs is if she hears it from GG and not LL Bean-wearing brothers.
"I'm sorry, baby, but she does have a point about those pants... mail-order catalogue is so not the UES."
Rufus is still trying to prove that he so should have been cast in "Made of Honor" instead of that pretty-boy Dempsey by tagging along with Lily at the bridal salon. He admits he went through Jenny's email (correctly guessing her password of "blairwaldorfisastinkypoohead"), and that he knows Jenny's lying right to his face. Lily basically tells him to get ahold of himself and be patient, since Jenny will eventually become human again. She pulls back the curtain to reveal her wedding gown, which is absolutely gorgeous. As he gapes at her and tries to cover up the crotch of his pants, Lily realizes for the first time that it may be a little awkward to go wedding shopping with a former lover. While she may lose the mother of the year award for the 17th year running, she's looking like a shoo-in for moron of the year 2008.

Did anyone notice when the girls were walking down the hall at school and Hazel called Jenny "Little J," she sounded exactly like the gossip girl voice over?
No one ever suspects the dumb girl.

The voice of Gossip girl is done by Kirsten Bell (Veronica Mars). Wonder if she'll ever be on the show

I can honeslty say I hate that bitch Georgina!! I love bitchy blair and simpy serena is getting on my nerves. I think Chuck is scuzzy but gotta love the villan, right. oh, and eric...ugh! He is not even hot enough to be gay! I would have to agree that this episode although great blair/serena interaction, it was a little to "Little House on The Prairie" this week. It will be interesting to see what happens concerning the dead guy. I think that Serena was set up by Georgina.

this was one of the better episodes i think, i do miss chuck a lot however!
i had my best friend watch with me for the first time, and she's addicted now. ha.
anyways, i don't really like michelle trachenberg or however her last name is spelt. i've never really liked her as an actress - there's just something about her that annoys me.
oh well, she's only guest starring, and georgina is really making things interesting.
