ABC Family (ended 2011)
So this episode completely threw a monkey wrench in my feelings for this show.. don't get me wrong, I'm still a HUGE Cappie/Casey fan, but this episode definitely made you feel for Evan.. and Casey - at first I thought she was a total idiot for dumping Cappie (I mean who wouldn't love the guy?) but now I can see what made her leave.. I actually felt bad for Evan in this episode (something I have NEVER done)
Also, Frannie? Oh my goodness she showed us a different side of her.. going to the KT house to get Cappie? So sweet.. she seems like she's really turned around, but we'll see how that goes..
BING! We finally found out what was behind it.. between you and me, I was expecting something more.. hilarious? Ah well.. one mystery solved.. I just think it's hilarious that Evan wanted to rush KT..
And finally, I'd just like to say how happy I am that Scott Michael Foster sang in this episode.. it made me smile =]
The major issue with the episode was the lack of Rusty. He is the one character on the show I think who needs to be somewhat featured in all episodes as I feel he is the strongest character on the show. I can't remember a show in a long time that had such a strong and likable character as Rusty.
Sometimes when episodes are heavy on Casey they can be a bit gushy and over the top. Also I'm kind of getting sick of the serious lovesick Cappy. It was endearing for a bit but it's starting to get a bit dull. They need to put more life back in to him.

I totally love the ebb and flow of the characters in the episodes. This one needed to be about those that were there and others feature different people. Some weeks you see Dale and others no so much for example. I think that demostrates how strong the whole cast is. The only thing I would say is that every episode needs lots of Cappie because that is frankly what gets many people to turn in every week.
It was very revealing, and frankly well-written and planned out. I always thought that the fight was just over Casey but clearly there was more there than we thought. A lot of mixed emotions about how each of them thought college was going to turn out.
Now there was one thing that confused me in the episode with all the intramurals Frannie reveals to Rebecca that they almost deactivitated Casey because of Cappie, but last night that did not seem to be the case. So did it happen earlier, or is there more to tell on this story?
i have to admit, i was a sucker for evan from the third ep when he told casey he'd wantedto be with her forever, and this just made me like him even more. it made me real pissed off at cappie for treating cappie so badly, tho when cappie/evan were friends, it was so adorable! and strangley reminded me of the jess/dean fight from gilmoregirls... but that's off topic...
altho it made me so happy we finally gotsome answers for the legendary cappie/evan fight, and it annoyed me how misleading the preview was, since the fight was in the past and rebecca and cappie didn't break up. but one of the best eps by far. casey and evan 4ever!!!!!!!
Wow, this episode actually made me like Evan less. I mean, he came to college with the intent of breaking free from his parents, but because everything didn't turn out exactly as he hoped and because of jealousy he instead became exactly the kind of son his parents wanted, up to the point were he ditched Casey for Rebecca at that dinner thing because his parents told him too. That, to me anyway, is really the most unforgivable thing he did to Casey, choosing his parents instead of her refusing to stand up to them and doing something he must have known would hurt her to make "connections" for his family. Unbelievable, and he choose to go down this pat because his friend was more popular?
Yes, Cappie was a jerk when he and Casey were together and that's why she dumped him, that's why he needs to grow up if he wants her back, but Evan being who's right for her? No way. Who wants a boyfriend who takes the girl he cheated with to a function because his parents wants him to instead of the girlfriend? Who humiliates you in public just because his feelings are hurt? Who's so self-involved he ends a friendship because he can't stand that his best friend's more popular than him?
