I’m sorry, did I miss the part where Julia and Olivia permanently moved to Los Angeles, because I thought they lived in New York and were only visiting. Now they’re living it up in the Marmont like they’re Lohan or something. Don’t they have to work for a living? I mean all the money they had to withdraw from their ATMs has to come from somewhere, right?
I totally didn’t see Olivia melting down like that. Granted they were being held at gunpoint, but I know Julia, and calm and level-headed aren’t her strong suits. I guess Jules must be used to all this by now: serial killers, drug lords, organ thieves, Julia’s seen it all. Olivia should just go back to Tobias Funke, so what if he’s a never nude?
Color me surprised at how quickly Sean and Eden hooked up. I thought there would be more internal angst on Sean’s part, perhaps Escobar would have shown up as a figment of his imagination again. I love how Sean just conveniently forgot that Eden’s turning his daughter into a bulimic tease, but it’s all water under the bridge once Eden showed the tiniest smidgen of humanity. Sean is like Brandon Walsh all grown up: hypocritical, self-righteous and morally superior. I guess that makes Christian Dylan since they keep swapping Julia back and forth like Kelly Taylor. Say what you will about Kelly (and I say a lot) but at least I could somewhat understand what the guys saw in her, I can’t say the same with Julia. She’s shrill, she has no personality and she’s kind of scary. Maybe they like her for awesome survival skills under pressure (see above).
I called it last week when I said Kimber would be back for her latest round of surgery. I don’t think she looks that different, but then again, I never really think the patients do. I’m glad that she left Matt, that marriage was a bad idea jeans from the jump. She’ll be back to hooking up with Christian in no time.
As for the patient of the week/alien subplot, I guess they were going for The Twilight Zone but it didn’t fit in the context of the episode. They should have just done another breast augmentation and called it a day.
Oh and where’s Annie? Or Connor for that matter? Won’t anyone think of the children?
Next week: A very Nip/Tuck Christmas. I hope they can top the one from Season 3 wherein Mrs. Claus discovered she had a thirty five year old fetus in her belly. Merry Christmas!
