Season 3 E9: "Surrender" - 2013.12.08

SURRENDER

As the wedding of the century quickly approaches, Emily puts the finishing touches on her final takedown. But the tighter Emily holds the Graysons in her grasp, the more they slip through her fingers.

Enjoy!

I just love the catty little comments Victoria, Lydia, and Emily make to each other!  Victoria certainly kept Lydia's secret.  I loved the scene where Lydia threw Victoria's dresses out the window!  

Good for Margaux for not putting up with Lydia!  

So, now Aiden and Emily are engaged . . . I suspect that Aiden wanted a feeling of a little more security regarding his relationship with Emily before the big shooting.  I still wonder about Emily and Jack . . .  

Like they say, "All is fair in love and war," because Emily certainly has no qualms about ruining Daniel and Sara's relationship.  I'll bet the two get back together later.   

Looking forward to the winter finale! 

Amber Valleta (Lydia) comes from the world of modeling and it showed with her high-stepping in that first scene w/Margaux. It was a bit distracting to say the least. I did love how she pushed Emily and walked out with not even a glance back.   Lydia's a weak woman though and fell right back into old patterns. I don't believe she's long for the show. Conrad will discard her again and Victoria will dismiss her again.

Aiden, Emily and cousin Nolan work as a great team. This is probably the only time I can tolerate Nolan. Aiden & Nolan work because they grudging respect each other and the other's positon in Emily's life. That makes for potential conflict. Emily looked genuinely happy with Aiden's proposal. I have never believed she was playing him and that scene proved it even more.

Emily can be cold as ice. Daniel comes clean and declares his devotion to her very movingly and still that woman had her revenge face on during their embrace. That girl has no love whatsoever for Daniel.

Charlotte, meh.
Jack, double meh.
Sarah triple meh.

I could live without Lydia being back and now, she's found the picture again.  All Conrad is looking for is a little affection.  LOL.  God knows, he gets none from his wife.

I'm not certain but I thought the previews showed script saying "Who shot Emily?"  ?????  It looked like they were putting cuffs on Vic.   This is one time I'm hoping a show will end with the season.  There's nowhere else to go with it.

I'm hoping Aiden and Em sail off into the sunset, but perhaps the "dig two graves" will come into play.  Can she really have hurt so many people and come out clean?  I wouldn't be too surprised if they end up killing her.

Later guys.
