Synopsis:

from Santa Barbara:le site francais

Mason goes to Mary's private hospital to get treatment for his black eye that he suffered after the blow carried out by Dylan. Dylan follows Kelly outside the State Street bistro and tries to entice her. When he sees both men who are on his chase arriving, he jumps on Kelly to kiss her and to avoid their view. Kelly defends herself from the advances by releasing some tear gas. Dylan becomes established in Kelly's old flat, where he is joined by Janice. Brick begins accepting that Glenn isn't his father. Nick accompanies him in the Lockridge residence, to search Minx's room for indications. Brick finds a piece of paper there with the telephone number of his father. Suddenly, a car arrives and both men escape by the window of the room. Ted comes back from Lake Tahoe where he didn't manage to find Laken. Gina succeeds in making Eden drink some champagne that has been doped. A last will signed by C.C. is left at the Capwell place. Eden reads the will of her father which says not to keep him living artificially. Mason admits to Mary that he doesn't want his father to die. The drug begins having effects on Eden, which surprises Sophia, and puts on a show in front of Kelly, Mason and Ted. Gina, delighted with her party, puts photos in chains. At the end of her nerves, and armed with a sword found in Amanda Lockridge, Eden ends up collapsing...

Why this is a memorable episode

Well, because here it happens the first meeting between Kelly and (the future psychopath) Dylan, because Robin Wright is lighter than ever, because the most fragile side of Mason is as attractive as the evil one, because Eden shows us the first signs of imbalance that years later will lead her to develop a double, triple, quadruple personality and especially because a turkey can die twice.

Best Line

Kelly asks Mason if he is ok, after Dylan punched him. Mason answers: “Sure. I have another eye.”

The coolest

Dylan Hurtley was crazy. Without a doubt. But how many men would be able to wear a tight pink T-shirt like him?

Greatest improbability

Really some of you would take a drink provided by Gina?

Worst dressed

Well, Eden wore better dresses than this. Was this her first communion’s day? (This is just for practicing Catholics).

Dumbest Line

Eden would win, but she is under the influence of drugs for 90% of the time, so I have to exclude her. I loved her, but I have to say that the winner is Kelly: scared by Dylan boldness, she hurts him with pepper spray. Immediately she asks him, “Are you okay?”

The most evil

CC is in a coma and Gina wants him dead. What to do? She leverages Eden’s love and sense of guilt, by writing a fake letter in which CC would ask to leave him die. Treacherous!

The biggest Mouth of Truth

Definitely Eden. After (apparently) forgiving her mother for having fake death, for having killed her brother, for having betrayed her father with his worst enemy, Eden decides to declare her love to Sophia as follows:

The most sudden fainting

Eden, again. One moment she is overactive, she calls her mother a sluth, she threatens Mason with a sword, she stabs a roast turkey. A second later she sags and faints. Gina, who is your pusher?

And now Ladies and Gentlemen, the episode.
