    On his way home from seeing Haley, Nathan stops to visit Taylor hoping for some fun and maybe more. Meanwhile, Anna gets a surprise visit from her ex-girlfriend and is inspired to tell her parents about her sexuality. Also, Lucas works with Andy to bring Dan down, Karen puts her foot down with Brooke. Peyton and Jake continue to hide baby Jenny from Nicki. Haha, Brooke. I love her. Whooo Nathan! I'm kinda glad he didn't sleep with Taylor, since that's his sister-in-law. Yay for Anna and Darby. I like that Brooke and Lucas are living together. =] Haley wasn't in this episode, but I enjoyed this episode a lot anyway. =]

    On his way home from seeing Haley, Nathan stops to visit Taylor hoping for some fun and maybe more. Meanwhile, Anna gets a surprise visit from her ex-girlfriend and is inspired to tell her parents about her sexuality. Also, Lucas works with Andy to bring Dan down, Karen puts her foot down with Brooke. Peyton and Jake continue to hide baby Jenny from Nikki. This episode is named after a song by Frank Sinatra. Still in his road trip, Nathan stays overnight with Taylor. Others are choosing their own roads: Jake turns himself in to the police, Anna tells her parents that she is gay and Lucas plots to bring down Dan. Another awesome episode. I cant wit until I watch more.

    Great episode! hide show

    Anna's "friend" Darby comes for a visit. Nathan is driving home and he makes a stop at where Taylor is. Lucas sneaks around to see what Dan was hiding in the ceiling. It's tons of money and a notebook. He asks for Andy's help. Dan suspects that Lucas is sneaking around. Karen grounds Brooke and she is shocked. Nicki is still looking for Jenny and Jake decides to turn himself in at the police station. Peyton is devastated. Whitey has taken Jenny, so Nicki won't get her. Darby helps Anna realize that telling her parents is the best thing to do. Anna tells her parents that she is gay and she is now moving back to her boarding school. When Nathan gets home from partying with Taylor, Haley has left a message, but he deletes it before listening and takes his wedding ring off.

    This episode was great! I can't believe Nathan! I want them together so badly! Anna was brave, but I don't agree with homosexuality or bisexuality. I wonder what Dan is trying to hide. This episode gets a 10 out of 10 from me!

    Nathan pays Taylor a visit after seeing Haley. hide show

    This episode of One Tree Hill was good. I really enjoyed seeing Nathan with Taylor. The whole time they were together I was wondering if Nathan was going to hook up with her. I was happy that they did not. I thought that it was really nice of Peyton to help Jake with hiding Jenny. I really admired that Jake had Whitey take Jenny out of the state then turned himself into the police so he can keep Jenny away from Nikki. I was disappointed that Brooke would take advantage of Karen like she did but i was happy to see her learn from her mistake.

    Nothing special hide show

    This was a good enough episode, I didn't like the whole Nathan/Taylor thing and was glad that they didn't end up sleeping together. I didn't see why this was needed, sure to make Nathan realise he must move on, why did Taylor get involved. I didn't like the dancing on a the bar scene, I couldn't stop rolling my eyes. Brooke getting grounded was an okay storyline, she was less annoying than usual but still she is by far not a character I like so, Bevin was funny!

    Lucas and Andy, I did find a bit weird and overdramatic, but it was entetaining enough, Dan being evil was enjoyable.
    I did like the Peyton/Jake/Niki thing and liked how it worked out, Jake being in prison is a little ahh because that is the only storyline I like, so hopefullt they'll do something good with her now.
    So overall it was alright!
