Special K 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2005 Well, that was a decent, but thoroughly unpleasant episode. I guess we can add martial arts master to plastic surgeon, expert dancer cokehead and general evil SOB to Quentin's growing resume. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest JMA Report post Posted November 30, 2005 I'm really enjoying the "Matt is a Nazi" sub-plot. Also, the Christian stuff (with the paper bag) was very nicely done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2005 I'm glad they've found something for Matt that isn't just obnoxious like everything else he's done...in the history of the show. Slow season start, but it's finally picking up well. I was laughing my ass off at Christian bossing what's her face around through the episode. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest JMA Report post Posted November 30, 2005 I'm glad they've found something for Matt that isn't just obnoxious like everything else he's done...in the history of the show. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I liked his storylines in the first season. They never did follow up on the whole three-way thing, though. I'm not a fan of the way some characters seem to disappear with no explanation. I'm still convinced that Grace Santiago is The Carver. It has to be someone that Christian has screwed over and she was a main character for a while. I don't think they really explained why she left either (other than her fight with Christian).

Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2005 the only problem with it being someone "the guys screwed over" is that the Carver never really started paying attention to Sean and Christian until they started fucking with his "work"...I'm sure it's someone we've seen before, but the Carver's original motivation was not "fuck with Sean and Christian"...

TSA09 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2005 Okay, so was Christian just dreaming Kimber locked away with The Carver or was that the real plot? I'm a bit confused on that. I'm thinking he is just seeing her in every which light and scenerio possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2005 my money says the Carver stuff was real...Christian's crying came from a combination of his feelings for Kimber, reading her letter and the things that baghead said to him... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chazz 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2005 What was that "honor code" thing that Costa told Julia when Julia asked him why he hasn't tried to sleep with her yet? I guess that only applies to when he's trying to fuck women. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TSA09 0 Report post Posted December 7, 2005 I really liked tonight's episode. Creepy as hell though. It freaked me out when the woman started gasping for air after Julia kissed her forehead. Only 1 more episode before the season finale. I just want to know who the damn Carver is. If anyone has gone to that MySpace site yet, it's weird. There are other profiles that have clips of each of the main characters removing the Carver mask. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Brian Report post Posted December 7, 2005 I thought that was the best episode of the season so far. Julia's character had a lot of great development, from the redemption with her doing the work, dumping her mother, the miracle, how that one woman told her what she had wanted to hear, killing the lady. Oh man. Sean's little thing was great. Costa's stuff was good. I'm pretty much sold on the fact that Julia's mom is the Carver at this point. The fact that she didn't die sealed it for me.

chirs3 0 Report post Posted December 7, 2005 Overall, I thought tonight's was just OK, but I LOVED what they did with Julia at the end. Spend the whole show building her up, then yank the carpet out from under her in the last 30 seconds. I missed the preview for next week - what did they tease?

Spend the whole show building her up, then yank the carpet out from under her in the last 30 seconds. I missed the preview for next week - what did they tease? Next week's episode is a "Very Special X-Mas Episode" Julian's pregnant with Quentin's baby (which the kids, Sean, and Christian learn about). She asks Sean if he's told Quentin about her being pregnant, since Julia is supposed to contemplait aborting the baby Matt's with the family for X-Mas and saves Julia from passing out The client of the week is a professional Santa Claus impersonator who's got a new trophy wife Christian gives Quentin the check buying out his contract with the firm and tells Quentin he's happy to hand deliver the check to him because it will be the last time he sees Quentin, who grins ominously Also there was commercial hyping the Carver's Myspace.com promo website, which had the Carver talking to a webcam about how people want to know who he/she is....

Special K 0 Report post Posted December 7, 2005 Great, if fucked up, episode tonight. I really like to see the strong characters of Julie and Sean having a moment. I have little hope for the next episode. I gaurantee we have a cliffhanger Carver. (As in no reveal.) Here's one thing: Quentin hopefully is not the carver. What purpose could he server besides dying? BTW: NSFW: http://www.robbscelebs.co.uk/ Look up Joely Richardson. She fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted December 7, 2005 The Carver myspace page is cool. So far I've seen the mask removed from Christian, Costa, Gina, Matt, and Liz. I liked the episode tonight, but didn't do much storywise. The Costa thing with Julia's spa was gonna be a long running na-na to Sean I though. To wrap it up in one episode seemed lame.

Guest JMA Report post Posted December 8, 2005 Giving the Carver a "My Space" page was a very good idea. Nip/Tuck continues to be one of the most innovative shows on TV. As for the episode, it wasn't my favorite of the season but it does serve as a good setup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
