When Lucas sees the wealth that was denied him, he finally confronts his mother about why she let Dan ignore them. Meanwhile, Nathan's mom turns to Karen for advice and Peyton and Nathan grow further apart. I love the way Deb, Nathans mother comes back.

  • Finally, we see Nathan's mom.

    After four episodes of simply being referenced, I was wondering if we'd ever get to see Nathan's mom. And finally she appears, and she's actually not the same awful people that Nathan and his father is. There's actually reason in what she says, and her visiting Karen's cafe was proof that she's willing to move beyond all of that.

    And as for Nathan? I don't think I've seen a show where high school students are so cruel. Even in the face of people he loves, he goes against his word and lies just so he can get the upper hand against Lucas. I hope they calm down on the hazing aspect, because they're setting Nathan up to be this one sided irritating jock character.

    I still think Lucas and Peyton are the most compelling characters. They both stand out from the sea of faceless masses surrounding them. Both are on the school team, but neither associate with the people around them. It just makes them that much more interesting.

    I like how the tension continues building, even in episodes where not too much happens. You can tell that Lucas is getting close to reaching his boiling point, and it's only a matter of time before he blows up on people. Definitely a good episode.moreless

    Haley is apprehensive when Lucas decides to go with the team to an after-party at Nathan's beach house. When Lucas sees the wealth that was denied him, he finally confronts his mother about why she let Dan ignore them. Meanwhile, Nathan's mom turns to Karen for advice and Peyton and Nathan grow further apart. I like how Nathan is beginning to accept Luke, even though it is only for Haley. And as for Nathan, dayum. =P I liked how Nathan reintroduced himself to Haley in front of Lucas to cover up their tutoring sessions. Brooke is the best. She's my favorite character. Great episode.moreless

  • yay! party!!! gotta say the first party in the show could be better...

    9.0
    "Superb"
    you know, I just can't give OTH the score less than 9 'coz this show kinda saved my life when I really needed in help but no one could help me. so I'll give 9 points even to the worst episode of the show... this one was not the worst and it was not bad at all, but when I tried to choose 3 my fave scenes it was really hard. well, I wasn't even sure that I actually had any fave scene in this episode.

    party! yay! but I didn't see any "party symptoms" except, probably, drunk Brooke and the game "I never".

    Nathan treats Luke as before. Luke takes high position as before. Peyton is broody as before. Brooke is pointless as before. just Haley gives smth to this episode: she tries to see all the stuff from Nathan's side and realizes that it's not so easy to be him. btw, at the and Luke feels like Haley betrayed him -- poor girl, being between two Scotts is too hard for her!

    I'm glad that Peyton finally broke up with Nate for good (just can't understand why the girl like Peyton lets the guy to treat her like sh**t while she doesn't even love him). Luke... what a gentleman! he's just destined to take care of Peyton's car (of their "comet").

    finally we see Nathan's mom, Deb. such a nice lady...for now. Dan is an evil -- evils always have great women around them.

    FAVE SCENE: Luke and Peyton talk outside the beach house -- "pretty sure?"

    FAVE QUOTE: Peyton: You know, you say a lot when you keep your mouth shut.moreless

    • When Lucas is outside digging the hole, Karen comes out and at first she is behind the porch. Then when she goes to sit next to Lucas you can clearly see her "baby bump". This was one time they were not able to hide Moira Kelly's pregnancy. Edit
    • At the beginning of the episode, James Lafferty says "Previously on One Tree Hill" instead of Chad Michael Murray. Edit
    • When Haley is looking at the pictures in the beach house, it is clear that everyone is wearing the same outfit as they were in the episode. The pictures were probably taken on the same day while they were shooting. Edit
