The run down: [the only things that are actually important in my book]
The real Sutton who is pretending to be Emma is released from jail. and Lexi (Emma's best friend) (otherwise known as Becky from FNL), is the one who picks her up. She lets her stay at her place. Sutton got a taste of what its like to be middle class, she also told off Emma's lousy foster mom. (Yay for that.)
Meanwhile Emma who is pretending to be Sutton, apologizes to Ethan about her drunkenness the other night and accidently lets it slip that that she's never had sex before. As Emma tries to evade the conversation they make their way through the living room and overhear Kirsten and Ted arguing (Sutton's adoptive parents.)
Emma comes to terms with the fact that the family she has been living with are all telling lies.They lie about everything to each other. No one seems to ever tell the truth.
You can tell that Lexi knows its not Emma. She's Emma's best friend of course she's going to be able to tell the difference, especially when Sutton shows up at school wearing a fashionable dress. Sutton gets her and Lexi invited to a casino party and she manages to convince Lexi to steal money out of her mothers special jar and go to the party. Sutton sucks at black jack, and this random hot guy ( i forgot his name) takes over as the dealer and basically manipulates the game so that Sutton (he thinks its Emma, the same girl who keyed his car the year before) can win her money back.
Kristin, (Sutton's adoptive mom) reveals to Emma that they lied about her birth mother being dead. (We've known that since the beginning.) She also tells Emma that all she knows is the name on the birth certificate. Little does she know that that's not the truth at all. Mama-Kristin has no idea that her husband has been lying to her. Oh schnap.
Derek broke up with Char, because Alec blackmailed him into it. I really hate Alec. He needs to get shot or hit by a bus. ( i say that phrase way too much.)
Char gets a strange phone call from her Aunt Annie that she's never met and isnt allowed to talk about. If you havent been watching the show or keeping up this far, then I'll fill you in. Annie is Sutton and Emma's birth mom, and Ted and Alec have been trying to keep everyone from finding out.
Derek overhears Char talking to Mads about her random phone call from her Aunt Annie. Being pretty clever he tries to blackmail Alec with the information, saying that he will tell him what he knows, but only if he lets him get back together with Char. (Derek obviously really likes and cares about Char.)
Ethan. Ethan. Ethan. I love Ethan. This episode he spent trying to tell Emma not to worry about everyone's feelings. To just tell them what she knows.
Sutton has a goodbye conversation with Lexi and gets on a bus headed back to Phoenix.
Oh I almost forgot about the nasty Letter that Sutton mailed to her parents about Emma. Luckily Emma was able to intercept it. And she shared the letter with Ethan and nearly breaks down about having to leave and saying good bye to everyone and to leaving Ethan behind. and Ethan says (probably my favorite line out of the whole episode) "Wherever you go Emma, I'm coming with you." Swoon.
Overall this episode was pretty okay, nothing super shocking. The only thing that is really memorable is Ethan telling Emma that he's going to go with her, if she has to leave. (Sqee.)
Predictions/Theories/ETC:
- So we know that Annie is Char's Aunt and that Annie is Emma and Sutton's birth mother. I have a feeling that Alec is Emma and Sutton's birth father. which would be incestuous considering that Sutton slept with Thayer....but then maybe Ted is their real father? My bets are on Alec. He seems to be the only one who knows that Sutton has a twin.
- I'm pretty sure half of the nonsense that has happened on this show could have been avoided if Sutton had just shown up from the bus stop with Emma in tow and confront her adoptive parents. but i suppose that wouldn't be very good television now would it?
- For Monday's season finale, I'm really hoping that the fact that Sutton has a twin comes out.
