When "Sorry" Isn't Enough

Someone had to do it: LC emerges as the heroine of Laguna, telling Jason straight up that he’d embarrassed her…in front of her family no less, kissing Jessica (of all people).  Still, it was like a horror flick for a second as I yelled at the screen, “Get out of there LC!  He’s going to pull his Jason magic on you!”  And contrary to Laguna Beach female tradition, she turned her back on him, while he took off on a bumpy ride home in the hills of Laguna…sniff…was that a tear, J-Wall?  Well, LC’s voice sounded like she’d been crying for her entire life.

Aside from LC’s great stand, not a lot of drama in last night’s LB. Jason and Jessica argue about who kissed who, and now I think, hey, those two might just be a perfect match.  If only they could be isolated from everyone else’s lives.

LC hosts a party, and although Alex H. convinces Kristin to go and try to make peace with LC in the LB, it’s just not meant to be.  They’re underdressed…Kristin’s like “everybody’s wearing dresses.”  Naturally Kristin picks up a souvenir before she leaves, and it looked a lot like Stephen.  So Kristin leaves with Alex H., Stephen, and LC’s heart.  Oh, and a snotty attitude.

My friends, I fear we are reaching the end of what’s been a great season.  Everyone’s moving…to LA.  Undoubtedly some of these kids are headed to Hollywood.  And I’m torn, do I want to see more of the high school drama, or am I ready to follow the bunch to LA, and see what their “grown up” lives are like?  Here’s Kristin sitting in rush hour traffic.  Here’s Stephen complaining about his boss to his cube-mate.  Here’s Alex H. in pajamas on a Friday night.  Here’s Jason…calling Jessica on her phone and seeing “what’s up.”  Nah!  Give me some new kids!

I give the episode a 5/10 for drama level.  Props to LC for not falling prey to the J-Wall voodoo.
