Sadly Daddy Wellington stabbed the German Shepherd in the neck, which is why they are left with only Scooby er I mean Purse Dog to protect them.

My guess is that the big shock of Henry with blood on him looking vaguely disturbed will quickly be explained at the beginning of next episode--most likely that he tried to save JD and got bloody in the process. Then, at the end of the season/series when it is revealed that he and FishHunk are the killers it will be even a bigger shock. At least it would be in the minds of these "writers".

'Cause my money is still on Henry/FH as the killing pair. Though I will point out that while mommy is searching for Madsy, the second time she passes ballroom-floor-buffing extra, he gives her a conspicuous, vaguely disturbing look. Was he the same extra that was cutting the hedge with electric trimmer? Wasn't all the staff sent home? I could only look forward to reading your recap if the writers pull the "the killer is that extra you never met but was in the background of several scenes so why didn't you figure it out?" ploy.

I doubt Henry is the killer. I think he was boinking Trish when Uncle Harry or Uncle Marty was being sliced in half.

That screen cap with GLC masturbating was hilarious!

I almost thought there would be no Fish Hunk this episode since he was in the last but voila, his sexiness is on screen!

Gracias Owl & Kissmy--

Amazing that we're actually debating all this, but now that BREAKING BAD is on hiatus, what do I have to live for?

I do think Henry will be one of the killers, but Fish Hunk is becoming so obvious he HAS to be a red herring. Right?

Trying to see it through a network perspective (which is chilling), I'd guess that they'd want one romantic couple to survive, so after she has a "terrifying" JAGGED EDGE-type bout o'doubt about FH, Abby will discover he's the only person she can trust and after he saves her (I mean HELPS HER SAVE HER CHICK- POWERED SELF) they'll sail off to the sex she's finally finally earned. Dios mio hope he's not a 2-pump chump.

That theory of FH's innocence, combined with the bloating I mentioned (did anyone else see that shit?!?), lean me toward GG as the other killer.

BUT... now Preppy looks hinky, too. There will probably be at least 3 people responsible for at least one murder.

And don't count out a female psycho. I think CBS & the exec prod's would consider that edgy, and if Henry's NOT one of the killers, Abby could still turn out to be the dangerously unhinged one.

Thank Christ there's only one more week until TRUE BLOOD.

xxxooo

I did notice how bloated GG looked, but I figured that it was because the special effects folks on this crapfest didn't have much budget and they needed him to look like he had his insides on the outside. (holy run on sentence, batman!)

Wiseowl, I did notice that the floor buffing guy gave her a look, but I figured it was because she walked over the floor he was waxing... twice. I'd have cut a bitch. :p But now that you mention it, the hotel lady did say that everyone had left, right? Or was that after? And why would you be buffing a floor when no one will be there? Wouldn't you do that when the hotel was opening back up? Dunno, never worked in a hotel. Still, it is curious.

I don't think Preppy looks hinky at all. We have seen him by himself and he is a scardy cat. Now if he was just like that when others are around it would be one thing, but why would he act different when he is alone. We have also seen Henry save someone who would have died so I don't think it is him... the bloody hands this is such a transparent red herring, I mean come on... we have several more episodes still.

Fish hunk look suspicous definitely. You never see him by himself as you do with every other character. Now that may be because he is only a minor character, but it could also be because that is when he is taking care of his dead mother who is sitting in a room wearing a wig and rocking in the rocking chair. Kidding. Mostly. If we think about this logically (though why would we with this junk show), the killer would have to know a lot of things including about the a-hole that BW paid to come tempt Trish away from Henry. So could the killer be Step-Mommy? Maybe she is Wakefield's sister? Nah... because she would have to have planned this way ahead to have married BW so long before Abby and Henry got together.

And the call from the kid seemed weird didn't it? I know... weird kid anyway, but the way she worded the call was strange.

Anyway, Yay for True Blood starting again soon! Thanks for a great recap!

Excellent points, Snootchy.

But there's definitely something weird going on with Preppy. They want us to think he's merely fussy hobbit-like comic relief, but lately he's had vaguely disturbed moments that hint at psychosis... like the WTF moment in their room when he told Slutty he wasn't proposing just yet and they get ready to go to sleep with the lights on.

And I don't buy him wanting to stick around out of concern for Creepy Madsy's safety. There were a bunch of strangely intense Preppy close-ups at the marina.

As a side note--- how lazy and sterile is the plotting involving all the nubile male & female wedding partiers? All that drinking and summer resort frolicking and no one's hooking up except Ginger & The Widow BW?! They could have easily worked in a chain of trysts to keep things interesting and distract everyone (and us poor viewers) from all the isolated murder incidents. Slutty started the show with some whorey bitch potential but in no time at all she went from cooze to snooze.

I'm more convinced now than ever that it is Fish Hunk. They stuck Henry in at the end to try and "trick" us.. silly NBC writers!

I checked my DVR and there is a new ep next week, and then nothing the week after.. I can't go past two weeks.. anyone know if it's just another weirdo hiatus?

Long time reader, first time commenter, so HI! Just figured I'd chime in with my two cents. Although I do think Henry is a red herring, I'm conflicted over Fish Hunk. Is he innocent bystander Jerry "Derek" O'Connell or more like loony Billy Loomis? (which is really the only difference between Scream 1 and 2)

I personally think the killer is Maggie, the hotel manager lady. She's visible enough so that when the big reveal comes, everyone would be like "OH! THAT lady," but she's offscreen enough that she doesn't have any alibi's AND she would never really be considered a suspect by viewers.

As a sidenote, 2 really awesome B-grade horror movies that you should add to the list are Waxwork and Waxwork 2. I highly recommend them.

Otherwise, great job with the commentary. Keep it up!

I think the journel will say that Abby is the killer's daughter. That is what journels always say!! Bad-wig Mom was probably preggers when she got to the island. So Abby has BAD,BAD,BAD DNA!
