 Rating out of five: 5 Kay and Simone had invited Chad and Miguel over for a dinner date. It was headed off to a bad start right from the beginning. First, Eve showed up as the girls kept her from seeing the California kid. But Eve eventually headed on over to the Bennetts to prepare for a night out with the Cranes (a disaster in the making…). Then, finally when Kay and Simone figured out that three packages of pasta for four people was a little too much, Whitney showed up. Of course, she immediately flipped that Chad was in the house. But what made matters worse, was when she entered the kitchen and the food in the microwave exploded in her face. Chad offered to clean up the mess, impressing Whitney. Miguel, on the other hand, could only think of Charity. Poor Kay… Over at the Crane mansion, Sam felt a little out of place as Ivy had coincidentally prepared all of Sam's favorites as well as wearing her jasmine perfume he had once bought her. Grace, not being able to take hints very well, tried becoming Ivy's best friend, and even brought along a little tomato soup cake. Um, sick! The Bennetts are truly the dorks of Harmony. Meanwhile Eve and Julian talked about their past and how no one could ever find out how they knew each other…but it is pretty obvious…think about it. T.C. Russell however, was off in his own little world, wondering why Eve and Julian hated each other so much. Why are television characters so oblivious to the truth?! Pilar Lopez-Fitzgerald, the Crane housekeeper was in the background complaining how this night would ruin everything for Ivy. But alas, a phone call from the hospital saying Charity was gone, caused the dinner party to end early, much to the disappointment of Ivy. Julian on the other hand, became intrigued by his wife's sudden interest in the common folk. Ethan and Theresa were heading for the Cinderella ballet. The girl couldn't stop thinking of her little fantasies of one day marrying Ethan. One problem stood in her way though, Ethan was soon to propose to Gwen Hotchkiss. Don't you hate when that happens? Theresa was so excited, as this was her first ballet. But Ethan kept talking about his girlfriend and how perfect she was, causing her to run off, leaving her shoe behind. (Gee, you don't see where this is going, do you?) Ethan went out to comfort her, and put the shoe on her foot. He told her never to give up on her rich man she wanted and sometimes life can work out like in the fairy tales. Realizing how much fun his date was having, Ethan decided to make a stop at a party the ballet production was having afterwards. Of course, Theresa jumped at the chance to be with her dream man even longer. Back at the Russell house, Eve and T.C. arrived home to tell everyone that Charity was missing from the hospital. Miguel declared that that was impossible, since Kay just called down there a minute ago and they said she was sleeping. (Face it Miguel, the girl lies!) The two decided to stop on by there to find out where she could be. Well, actually, he decided to; she just decided to tag-along. Chad and T.C. talked, as he informed the kid that he shouldn't give up on his dreams, no matter who gets in the way. (Gee, you don't think T.C. would be talking from personal Crane experience, do ya?) Eve was in the kitchen with her daughters lecturing them about having friends like Chad Harris in her house. She forbid Simone from ever seeing Chad again. Whitney just stood there like the good siblings the rebellious sibling always wants to kill, as Eve forced the boy to leave. Simone just cried and said she wasn't going to apologize for not being more like her sister. She even told her mom off, saying if she was so concerned about Chad's family life, then how come Eve never told her own family about her relatives. (Oooh, that hurts! *On a side note: this had to have been the best acting ever portrayed by Simone. That girl is definitely awesome!!!!) As a matter of fact, Eve became a little weary when she discovered the boys name was Harris, and declared she didn't know anyone by that name…well, sure you do, Eve! Remember, that's your maiden name!!! Duh!!! At the hospital, Kay discovered the newspaper Tabitha had showed Charity, but didn't want Miguel to possibly think she could have been in Castleton so she tried to hide it under the bed. But then it hit him - maybe she went looking for her mother! (Oh, we got a winner!!!!) Determined to keep her man, Kay agreed to go along with him. But the first chance she got, she sliced his motorcycle tire to prevent them from reaching Castleton. This may have sounded like a good idea at first, but all of sudden the teens crashed in the middle of nowhere. "Oh my God, he's dead!" Kay shrieked. Tabitha had meanwhile tracked Charity down at her house of ashes, and injected her with a needle. There was no time to bury her, so she decided to make it look like an accident. Oh, and Timmy did all that hard work digging her grave. Well, anyway, what better place to off the powerful girl than on train tracks? But the two wimps could barely even carry her and missed the train. Luckily, at least for those of us who can't strand Charity's influence on the eyebrow raising Miguel - not to mention her bad acting, Tabitha and Timmy were in luck. There was another train on its way. Unfortunately, Miguel survived the crash. Darn it!! The devilish Kay meanwhile, faked having a sprained leg, hoping Miguel would rush her to the hospital, and stop looking for the blonde haired bimbo. Well, he found help with a farm girl, leaving Kay to sit in the back of a pickup truck with a pig (ha, ha!) to stretch out her "sprained leg." But he made a stop in Castleton to find Charity and possibly her mom. Well, Kay, not wanting to leave him alone for a second, followed him. Sheridan and Luis ran into each other on the docks that night, as he was making sure the muggers weren't out (as if Harmony is suddenly a high crime rate village). He turned his back for one second, and all of a sudden a man attacked Ms. Crane. Luis tried to help her out, but she ended up helping a little too much, as she hit Luis over the head with a bottle, thinking he was the attacker. The mugger got away, but Luis was in no condition to chase after him, and had too much pride to go to the hospital about his recent cut. The only choice? Allow Sheridan to drive him - and remember, he knows how she drives! She cleaned him up and did some first aid on him. Suddenly, they got a phone call saying the attacker was at a party…you don't think…that's right. Luis and Sheridan headed off for the same party Ethan and Theresa were going to. Uh, oh! Ethan and Theresa arrived at the party, as Ethan's date was the highlight of the event. Everyone loved her. Even the photographers. At first, Theresa loved all the attention she was getting, but then she realized that if the pictures were to end up in the Harmony Herald - what would Luis say? She convinced Ethan to get the roll of film from one of the photographers, but he had just switch rolls, so Ethan didn't realize he didn't get the roll of film with Theresa's and his pictures on it. Sucks, to be you, Theresa. And it really sucks to be you since Luis just entered and saw that his darling younger sister was dancing with a Crane. A Crane, ugh! |
