The OC: The Cliffhanger (episode 14)

I haven't written in this blog in a while since I got Olympic fever! Now I'm struggling to figure out what happened. This is all from a list of bullet points I took about a month ago!

Summer is looking for Seth, who is avoiding her. She describes him as "gangly...mophead...barely has an ass." probably because he smoked so much weed and is avoiding her.

Johnny finally admits to Marissa that he has feelings for her. Yikes! She doesn't take it very well, but she's still undecided about her feelings to him. Rinse, repeat for the last 10 episodes.

Seth finally hooks back up with Summer and apologizes. Rinse, repeat.

Kaitlin and Marissa have a heart to heart, using ice cream as a metaphor. Kaitlin remembers that when Marissa was a child, she could never decide on an ice cream flavor when their dad took them out. She always tried them all. When she finally did make a decision, she ended up hating it and forcing her dad to buy her a new cone. The point: Marissa needs to choose an ice cream flavor, either Ryan Ripple or Broken Surfer crunch.

Matt gets in trouble because Sandy catches him dating some hottie whose father happens to be funding the hospital-building for the Newport Group. Business should lead to pleasure in some way.

Ryan tells Marissa he doesn't want to see her until she can figure out whom she loves...him or Johnny. Nooooo!

Julie and Kirsten find a date for Doc Roberts. Julie gets jealous and spies on the proceedings. But due to some Newpsie interference, Doc blows her cover! He's shocked, yet amused.

Marissa drops off a "Dear Johhny" letter. Looks like its over! Then she goes back over to Ryan's to rekindle their relationship.

Summer comes over to Casa Cohen. Seth is smoking weed and listening to music. But he covers well and gets her to go downstairs instead of to his room. Though when Summer remarks "What's that smell?" A flag went up. I remember Summer from the first couple eps of the series and she was practically snorting coke off Luke. Newport kid parties were insane!

Johnny finally reads Marissa's letter. Unhappy, he finds Marissa and goes drinking near the beach. Dun dun duhhh!

Doctor Roberts drops by the trailer and proclaims his love for Julie.

Marissa and Ryan finally get back together. But before anything happens, Kaitlin calls Marissa, worried. Johnny's really drunk and upset and dancing on a cliff.

After watching "Save The Last Dance" (Best movie Ev-Er!) Seth says how much he loves it! Summer's bullshit detector goes up, especially when the movie is over and he's staring at the blue screen. But I loved the dance sequence at the end as well! "welcome to Julliard!" Summer digs around Seth's room and finds his stash. Ewww!

Johnny is totally drunk and scary. Ryan of course tries to rescue him from the cliff, but he realizes that if he lets this happen, Marissa will only love Ryan more. So he does the only thing he can do: fall from the cliff and die. Yikes!

(Ugh, can you believe that they actually called the episode "The Cliffhanger?" They are really scraping the bottom of the barrel with their single entendres.)
