I don't like Kylie but she was kinda funny how she kept drinking. I wasn't surprised that mouth didnt sleep with her.

Jamie.Jamie Jamie. You have been bad. I'm glad he found the decorations though. I can't believe Alexander and Alex scene. I think Julian shouldn't depend on Alex so much.

I felt bad for Clay and Nathan. I did like the fact they had to walk alone and it reminded me of the past with lucas and nathan. Why couldn't the door stay white? It destroys old memories for Brooke. I think her thinking of Alex-Julian-Her as a love triangle is definately like the one with her lucas and peyton.moreless

Tree Hill, North Carolina is supposed to be small town and yet they get Cheap Trick to play a random reunion dance? Don't get me wrong, Cheap Trick is not the Jonas Brothers, or whatever the kids like these days, but they're still above doing this.

But ignoring that, this was a solid episode. Clay and Nathan being stranded gave me flashbacks to Season 1 with Whitey forcing Nathan and Lucas to walk home together. That was a little more enjoyable than this, but the scenes with them were still worth watching.

What was forgettable was the ridiculous Jamie home alone nonsense, and the whole Quinn/Kylie drama. Quinn....I just don't like her. She's the new Peyton.moreless

ADD TRIVIA
- Brooke Girl behind the brown door. Doesn't have the same ring to it. Brooke says this to herself at the beginning of the episode, while watching Lucas' bedroom door being painted brown. She is alluding to memories of herself as "the girl behind the red door" when she was a temporary occupant of Lucas' bedroom as a teenager, as well as when she was a child growing up in Tree Hill. In season two, episode 17 when Lucas pulls up to her front door to drop Brooke off, she is lamenting leaving Tree Hill for her father's new job. She is used to being the rich girl living in a big house with a red front door. Brooke tells him she "liked being the girl behind the red door." Later the same episode, just before Brooke has to leave, she asks Lucas what he will miss about her as they walk up to his outside bedroom door. He replies, "I miss the girl behind the red door." He points out his door, which he has painted from a green shade to a bright red. They go inside and all of Brooke's belongings have been moved into Lucas' bedroom. He explains that he got his mother to convince her parents to let her live there until the summer, while he is living with Dan. Edit

- Note: At the end of the episode is a dedication: 'In Loving Memory of John Hughes 1950 -2009'. John Wilden Hughes, Jr was an American film director, producer, and writer perhaps best known for the films about teenagers he directed in the 1980s. Writer Terrance Coli got the idea for a tribute to Hughes when he passed away August 9, 2009. He asked writer Bill Brown, who had worked with Hughes on films Ferris Bueller's Day Off and Planes, Trains, and Automobiles if he should write the tribute. Throughout the episode, references appear to specific scenes, storylines, and fashions from Hughes films. Edit

- Alexander: What a coincidence, 'cause I learned everything I know about fashion from Miami Vice reruns. Miami Vice (1984-1989) is an American TV series which aired on NBC, starring Don Johnson and Philip Michael Thomas as undercover Miami police detectives. The show had a huge influence on men's fashion, particularly wearing a T-shirt under a suit jacket. When Alexander waits for Brooke at the store we can see he is wearing the trademark T-shirt under a suit jacket. Edit
