    Who knew that the "lunch table" was code for strip club? I really like that Calvin is friends with Rusty. They seem like such an unlikely combo but they work really well.

    I'm getting the OC flashbacks with the "I love you" "thank you" thing. Except these characters are much more believable than Ryan and Marissa pretending to be teenagers ever were.

    This episode was a bit of a filler. Nothing really happened. Kappie was for me, as usual, the high light of the show. The nurse's outfit was spectacular ;)
    And he was a physics major at some time too... I thought it was one of those dorky but brilliant moments when Rusty revealed he was using a physics law and applying it to his love life.moreless

So for the show they are putting on Ashleigh is partners with Rebecca Logan and Casey is partners with Jen K. Rusty wants to tell Jen K. that he loves her but Cappie tells him not to do it. Rusty tells her anyway and she says thank you. Cappie then takes Rusty and Calvin to a strip club where they see other students including Calvin's boyfriend who tells Calvin that he hooked up with someone else last night. Cappie raises the bill to 275 dollars and his credit card declines, so Rusty calls Casey for her to bail them out. before the show starts Ashleigh's phone rings, its a text from Travis. Later Casey then tells Ashleigh that she knows she didn't break up with Travis.moreless

    Hm... this was an okay episode, I just think Ashley was being extremely immature. Just because Casey did not like Travis... It was just really annoying how she was freaking out and being a jerk to Casey about the whole thing. The ZBZ play was also kind of stupid. The whole "I love you" plot also was not very entertaining. I kind of liked Calvin and Heath's story, but, it wasn't enough to get this episode to a nine...

    The ZBZs need some more philanthropy hours, and so they help a Bible group, one that Dale is running.
    Ashleigh is mad at Casey for being part of the anti-Travis mob.
    Rusty wants to say that he loves Jen, but is not sure if she loves him back. He goes to Cappie, who is cleaning extensively, for advice. Cappie thinks that it's a terrible idea. When Rusty tries and Jen says "thank you", the KTs end up at a strip club
    Calvin and Heath are having some problems, and Heath cheats on Calvin, causing them to break up.moreless

  • Cappie is recovering from Casey and Evan's evergrowing relationship, in a humorous way.

    OK so I did not see all of this episode as my cable went out and the DVR did not catch all of it, but from what I saw I liked.

    Rusty says "I love you" to Jen K., who in turn is not ready to say it back, a.k.a. going against Cappie's advice. Putting Rusty into a slump.

    Cappie cleans the Kappa Tau house in order to get over Casey. When he realizes that the cure he is really looking for is 'Lunch Buffet', another hilarious installment by Cappie.

    So I was a bit lost on what the Zeta's were doing, it was some sort of good hygiene play, but the I got most of the hostility from Ashleigh and Casey. I think they are both right, Ashleigh can do better, but Casey should have made that a private issue, and not publicy sided against her.

    So Dale likes Casey, does he even know her? How funny would it be to throw him into the triangle. His band is named 'Darwin Lied' that is just too funny.


    I liked the ending with Rusty and Jen saying the things they loved.moreless

    As Rusty feels closer to Jen K. he decides to tell her he loves her. When he does it, it was just really hard to watch. You felt to sorry for him, and even though I personally believe it was too early you wanted her to say it back just cause he is so naive. My heart dropped when she said thank you, but in the end when she said that she thought she loved him, and they finally made it, it gave you a warm feeling inside. It made you super happy for them. While this was occurring Cappy was dealing with the feeling that he lost Casey for good. He went on a rapid cleaning streak trying to forget about her, and tried to implement this same advice in Rusty who did not take it. Cappy eventually took all the frat boys to a strip club and when it came time to leave, his card was rejected and Rusty had to call Casey to bail them out. Rusty then figured out that Cappy's behavior was from Casey not saying anything when Cappy told her how he felt. I thought this was a turning point in Cappy's behavior and how he would then pursue Casey from then on. I believe that he will now look to find someone else. Also, with Casey's friend wanting to be with Rebbecca was crucial because now they have made up, and i am glad that happened. All in all i thought this was a very well done episode, and I enjoyed it.moreless
