This episode review is coloured by the fact that I know spoilers for the rest of the season, so don't read it if you're not spoiled.

Can't stand that line... it renders everything meaningless and simplistic

Yeah, I admit I quite liked the stoned presentation scene. ;) I didn't laugh ... but a flicker of a smile might have come. :)

So hypocritical... and somehow endearing to me
:) Because it's so human!

It's ugly and painful and they both act like impossible fuckups (Cat is now officially same level) but it's so damn _human_.
Yeah, I agree that Cat is on the same level now! ;) Her behaviour here is really shit.

Does Sam really not see? Or does she just choose to give her the benefit of the doubt and behave as if the better side of things was true? I hadn't thought of the parallel with Alicia there though. But it's a fair call. She *could* ask a few more questions--especially as she definitely saw Cat watching Frankie. I guess she thinks jealousy is beneath her? But she should listen to her own suspicions a bit more, I agree.

are you ready for the very very bad person's funeral? :D :D :DWell I already lived it (and a very violent version of the death) in my dreams last night. Several dreams (as I was woken by a thunderstorm) but

I stated before that I mostly saw the bathroom scene differently and loved it. But to answer your question about why Cat won't leave Sam: I believe it's because she thinks Frankie would be tired of her once Frankie has her. Remember, what she told Frankie in Season 1 about Frankie always being ready until she gets what she wants? Cheating allows Cat to keep Frankie, besides also keeping Sam. I believe Cat truly sees it that way.

But either way, Cat's monologue shows quite clearly who her true love is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=pb-BpJvBJ8Q#!
