We start just after Steph has finished plucking Tessa's eyebrows, so you know her sex appeal just went up by like 10 points. Steph does Tessa's make-up and she's all nervous about it. I'm almost certain that we've already had 3-4 scenes exactly like this?
Samantha: So. Many. Times. Has. This. Happened. Does this book take place in a time loop?

Tessa tries to take a step back from Hardin, but "his grip is too strong." We're going to totally ignore her lack of bodily autonomy in this very moment because she's so! shocked! and! over! whelmed! that Hardin just said he wants to be good. If it is THIS SHOCKING that someone has set the pretty mid-level bar of being good, perhaps don't date that person. #SnarkLadyAdvice (S: #MaybeLiterallySavesLivesInThisCase.)

You guys I just want this night to end. Was there ever another plot to this story? I feel like one party night bled into another party night and now we're trapped in a college party hellscape.
Tessa is walking away from the frat house at 4 am. I kind of refuse to believe that a taxi service isn't 24 hours in a college town but okay. She walks for an HOUR AND A HALF and omg I'm so exhausted thinking about it. How the heck far away was this frat house? (M: Ah, yes, the across town frat house. Classic.) She finally reaches campus and stop into 7-Eleven for "a cup." IDK maybe it's because I'm not a coffee drinker but I was hella confused over what the heck she meant.

Taylor visits Ryan during his break because she has the perfect Valentine's Day present for him, even though Valentine's Day is weeks away. Her perfect present? A scrapbook, complete with signed letter for her divorce lawyer, sneaky pictures she took of Ryan on her camera phone and their hospital bracelets from that one time they were in a joint coma. Ryan just makes some really uncomfortable noises.
Capeside High library. Andie tells Jen that she knows applying for college is overwhelming, and suggests she start by looking at schools in New York, seeing as she lived there before and has been talking about going back. Jen's all "I've been saying WHAT?" Yeah, turns out Drue's been spreading rumours again. Asshole.
"'According to him' would be the key phrase. He's the Dark Prince of Revisionist History..." Jen snaps. Best. Jack rushes in, totally out of breath. Andie asks what's going on and he totally downplays it, being all "Oh, you got something in post. Totally not a big deal.

Okay, here we go. I haven’t read a SVH book in about 15 years, but I do remember that I was slightly obsessed with Jessica because I am a complete and utter nerdy Elizabeth and I thought Jess was SO COOL DUDE.
Marines: If nothing else, I hope this experiment changes your mind about Jessica because that bitch is CRAZY.
Laura: One paragraph in, I'm immediately told the girls have large blue-green eyes! As if I could ever forget. And Tricia is dying, for realz this time.

Just a couple disclaimers for anyone who doesn't read the comments: I have been looking forward approximately forever for Willa Holland, because Thea Queen, and was so excited to get to her episodes that I kinda sorta wanted her to destroy the core four's world. THAT SHE DID MY FRIENDS. So I may be just a bit biased on rooting for Kaitlin's terrible decisions. Second - because she is not /technically/ part of the main cast yet, I'm totally calling her Young Thea.
We open on a class of students diligently at work at Rosewood High School. Just kidding! Emily is walking around the halls with her mom, who's talking about Skype conferences with teachers while she was in Texas.
Marines: I like that the show feels it necessary to try and fill in the gap of why Emily basically doesn't have parents. Cute, show. Like we care.
J: That's more effort than they've put into a lot of plot lines in this show. Maybe they hired some vaguely responsible-feeling writer late in the game? (M: Ha.)

I have to start off by saying that I know that Willa Holland was Kaitlin Cooper long, long before she was Thea Queen on the Arrow, but to me, she will always be Oliver Queen's little sister.
Marines: I hope she's a better person on that show.
GFM: She isn't, sadly. But she does wield swords, so.
Okay, now that I've got that out of the way, on to the recap.
We open on Sandy Eyebrows Cohen storming into Ryan’s pool house wearing an amazing bathrobe. He wakes Ryan up, in a panic because Seth is ‘gone’.

We open at the Potter B&B, which makes a pleasant change. Joey's helping Pacey run lines for the play, but gets all "skrrrt, NO" when she sees that the next page requires her to get all swoony and lovey-dovey. Oh, sweetie. Just give it a few more episodes.
Democracy Diva: Is it too early to squee? I feel like it's too early to squee.
K: It's never too early to squee.

K: It's never too early to squee.
As with many episodes, we start off in the Cohen’s kitchen, because why else would we need to see other parts of their humongous house. Although, it’s a shnazzy looking kitchen.
Marines: If past episodes are to be believed they only have one guest bedroom. I think this house is just a kitchen, a pool house and like 2.5 other rooms. IT'S ALL A RUSE.
Lily: Seth and Ryan discuss potential Spring Break plans.
