    Lauren lies to Val so she can spend time with Rick. hide show

    I can't believe Lauren would actually lie to her best friend so she could continue an affair! What really astounds me is that she wrote the note about Rick leaving his wife, just to prove to Val that he loves her and their relationship actually means something. But I'm glad she wrote the note. Without it, Val would have gone on the date, and Vic wouldn't have gotten hurt. If he didn't get hurt, then Val wouldn't claim she loved him. It took his injury, the worry and fear, and the phone call to open her eyes and her heart. I loved the ending when Vic "proposed" to Val and asked her to be already married to him XD Too funny XD

    Season 4, Episode 12. hide show

    Great episode. Vic says that he will show the girls something he has in his pants, and Lauren gets excited, but it is a ring for Val. Haha. Then, Lauren reveals that she wrote the note about Rick leaving his wife. She and Val get into an argument about it, and Val ends up linking Lauren to Vic's accident. They end up friends again, and Lauren ends up having to fake a surprise party. Haha, great episode. Val and Tina are freakin' hot! Holly calls Lauren and she is upset. She is crying, and the screen shows Rick being rolled out in a stretcher. LMAO! 10/10.

    Lauren wants to meet Rick, but he's still married. She wrote the note that distracted Val from seeing Vic. It's Val's birthday, so Lauren lies and says it was all a joke and that she was covering for her surprise party. Vince needs some new clothes and goes to Gary, but Vince hates them and Gary feels bad. Lauren confesses when Rick has a heart attack. Tina admires Lauren. Vic asks Val to marry him again on her birthday and she says yes.

    This episode was good. I can't believe Val actually believed Lauren, but then again, Lauren's her best friend. This episode gets an 8.5!

    Its party time, need a suite?, is it Lauren hot too? ....i wonder if its the season finale?? hide show

    ok where the party went?? all the episode a "surprise party" was mentioned, and when i thougt there wasnt going to be, there it was, althougt never came a real party...just a little celebration.

    I had never seen Lauren on sexy clothes, now i started to think she is attractive, bottom line she's hot too.

    Fun episode but i hope isnt the season finale, it didnt left a BIG question of anykind, you know... so hopefully we get more fun and cute amanda. ;)

  • This episode was originally scheduled to air on February 3rd, 2006. Then it was rescheduled to the 10th. Then The WB moved it to Feb. 17th, and finally The WB moved it back to the 3rd, because in order for "What I Like About You" to have a chance at moving over to The CW, The WB needs to see an improvement of ratings. []
  • Holly: You should totally give her the ring now.
    Vic: No, no, there's too many people. I want to give it to her when we're alone; I want it to be perfect.
    Holly: What's more perfect than doing it in front of all the people she loves? ...and Tina. []
  • Gary: Hey man, I thought you said Holly already sewed that on for you.
    Vince: Oh, she did. But she's in such a hurry to makeout all the time, her workmanship suffers! []
  • Val: So, Gary, what are you doing tonight? (winks)
    Gary: Did you get into the Pinot Gregio? []
