Postcards from the Edge -

I thought last week had one of the best episodes of The OC in a long time. This week, uh, not so much. The saga of Johnny has been a long one this season. He joins the long list of characters that have attempted to break up our two power couples without much success. First we had Oliver and Anna. We hope Oliver was sent to a mental institution, and Anna flew home to Pittsburgh. Then we had Zach and Lindsay and Alex. Zach is probably trying to have sex with his hot tutor, Lindsay flew back to Chicago, and Alex decided that Marissa Cooper is so crazy, she'll go back to her parents. We've been suffering through Johnny, who may not suck as much as some of the others, but that's not saying much. After many weeks of wondering how it is all going to play out, at the end of this episode we figured out what the hell we are going to do with him.
Usually, when a Cohen is barging into the pool house, it is Seth, who likely needs his hand held through another crisis that is inflaming his neurotic tendencies like cheap toilet paper after a night of Indian food. Come to think of it, if I had to deal with Seth like that all the time, I would probably be just as pissed off as Ryan is all the time. This episode, it was another Cohen that was bothering Ryan in the pool house, but you can still blame Seth. Sandy woke up and found that Seth was nowhere to be found, and was really worried. Considering Sandy let Seth live in Portland for months a couple of years ago, I am not sure why he is so upset that Seth is missing. He does have a hot girlfriend; right there are a million possibilities for reasons why he would be gone. Most of those reasons would even make his dad proud!
Ryan knows better and tells Sandy that Seth had a calculus exam and he shouldn't worry about going to the school to check up on him, because Ryan was supposed to go in early anyway. Seth didn't have a calculus exam, and Ryan found him at the pier taking in the sunrise. Ryan has noticed that something has been going on, and now that I mention it so has Sandy, so Ryan asks what's up, and Seth tells him that he didn't go to the Brown interview. Not only that, but he lied to Summer about the whole deal, and as we all know, the cover-up is usually much worse than the crime. However, Ryan decided that he wouldn't bother Seth about it any more as long as Seth would be honest with Summer about it.
