Nothing happened...boring...let's get to Tina dropping Henry and perhaps a responsible ending (that would not include a tractor!)...

Ididn't think it was boring. I agree with lwsho whose next post may show up here that Jodi could have appreciated the effort Bette went through..thank you would have been so hard? and just said, I can manage... I would have done the same thing, to try to make sure Jodi was comfortable, and Bette was just trying to do that. I also thought Bette had a good point in that Jodi could think about what she is going through, for one second.I think Kit can go drop off a cliff with her tude...what is she thinking to drink at Bette's..that Bette will say nothing?? Who has had to pick up Kit's drunken *** half her life? Kit certainly has alot to say when she thinks Bette has screwed up. My heart broke for Bette after the fight with Jodi.

I think Alice is just beyond annoying...will she ever in her whole life really care about anything or anyone instead of just being like a five year old always wanting her way. Tasha has to look out for her career and Alice just pouts.

Catherine and Helena having at it up against the window of the sky box for the world to see is just gross.

What does Tina not understand about fidelity? Isn't bringing Kate to the dinner a DATE? She is still with Henry. I think Tina thinks whatever she doesn't think about, isn't there.

LOVE LOVE LOVE Shane and Paige!!!!!!!!!!!!! We didn't get to see any "storytelling!"

[wingedwonder]

I wanted a love story, I got boring Tina slash weird Jenny slash typical Bette throwing the AA speach slash a sad funeral slash Shane & Paige reading stories I didn't get to see slash Helena still naive slash Tasha's run in. With two more eps left, I am going to cry if something doesn't make me jump up & down! I'd really like to see more of Shane & Paige and Kit & Papi.
Come on I.C.!!!

My initial thought was it was a boring episode but now I'm not so sure. I just find it funny that some people on other sites have said there was too much Max when the episode is called "Little Boy Blue."

I just thought it was all awkward. The dinner reminded me of episode 303 when Jenny brought Moira home with her. Only this time it was way worse. I wanted to laugh but really I couldn't.

And I agree with susannah that Catherine and Helena in the skybox was gross. This sucks because I can't take Helena seriously at all anymore.

Loved the episode. Not as much as the previous ones but was still good.

Bette and Jodie were great until the party They are so cute together and i think that Bette loves Jodie but not totally sure if what Jodie said was true since after she found out she said it she tried to move on to something else. And more surprising was when Bette helped her, maybe she isnt ready for that just yet The fight made me worry, and i hated that they cut it off and made up wait till next ep. Maybe things are looking up for TiBette

Bette was jealous of seeing Tina with someone else, i think, especially if the person who shes with is a woman. Glad she's going to figure out that she is controling in the next ep. and hopefully she will change it.

Tina i think is still jealous, at least i hope, and i cant wait for the next ep. when Bette and Tina talk. Next ep. Tina ditches Henry Tina may have been with the director at Bette's party but as soon as they showed up Tina moved next to Bette. And the picture that the director were talking about in the green dress was probably the night Tina found out about Bette's affair.

Helena and Catherine get on my nerves. I love Helena but i dont like them together. Mad at her for losing Alices investment.

Kit needs to stop drinking

Felt sorry for Papi. She didnt know that kit was an alcoholic and Bette trashed her at the party. Maybe from now on Papi will try and keep Kit away from the booze.

Jenny didnt get on my nerves this ep.

Glad Max was at least excepted a little bit.

Paige and Shane are cute. Glad Paige showed up at Shanes house and that Shane appologized to her. Jared was so cute; poor kid lost a good friend.

Alice and Tasha are still cute together and as always loved Alice

Looks like things are about to get bad for Tasha. That sucks; she should be able to live her life how she wants.


I hate the way it ended Two more to go Cant wait to see them.


.....oh and f*ck off The Tudors

As you wish Susannah, good suggestion...

It would have been nice of Jodie to say Bette, baby thanks for the party. Next time you don't have to try to keep me in the loop. I am around the hearing all the time and I know how to deal, you don't need to do that for me. Instead she came off accusatory and ungrateful. Its was nice to see Bette try to collect herself and show real emotion. She is so tired of being alone, she wants a real lover again and is trying so hard, maybe too hard with Jodie. The communication issue with them is less about hearing, but in their styles, maybe too strong to mesh.

Kit is just being immature. No matter what anyone has done to her (Bette, Angus, etc.) the alcohol hurts her. Bette loves her sister and doesn't want to have to go down that road again. Had the shoe been on the other foot. Not only would Kit have approached Bette, but probably slapped her, took the drink and carried her into the house. And speaking as a big sister she would be justified. Kit is too old to let Angus screw up her good life. Get it together girl.

Way too much Max time

[susannah]

well I'd rather be controlling like Bette than a lying, deceitful passive aggressive like Tina. I still think Bette doesn't do it to be malicious or because she thinks she's better than everyone else..she thinks she has to be that way and do everything perfectly or she won't be worth anything, unlovable.

Like others, I also didn't find Bette doing anything wrong trying to pull Jodi into the loop. She is new to being with someone who is deaf and perhaps she just needs to be gently reminded by Jodi, that she is accustomed to this life and knows quite well how to handle herself. She should have chilled out a bit.

I also can see Bette feeling that without the interpretor present, that she wanted to be the one to try to coordinate a flow between her friends and Jodi, and vice versa.

Give the lady a break Jodi!!! I really felt for the Alpha one. Let's hope she finds happiness, no matter where that may lead her.
