  • It was an episode where Lucas and Peyton finally got married. Nathan considers ending his basketball career. Julian returns to try and work things out with Brooke. In the end Peyton starts to bleed and we are left anxious for next week's episode.moreless

    This episode was pretty predictable. The Leyton wedding was ok, but everybody knew how it was gonna end for Peyton. I didn't really like Haley's jokes when he was a minister for Peyton and Lucas as well as Skills having Jamie on a leash-it got old pretty fast. I loved that Julian was back, he's jokes about Nick Lachey were the best part of the show for me. Brooke I also liked, specially her freakout before the wedding when she found out that Julian brought Missy-it reminded me of Brooke in her good old times. Missy ending up with Nick Lachey was kind of predictable but I think it worked. Julian meeting Victoria was really good, it's gonna be interesting to see whether it had a real effect on Victoria's behaviour.
    The first scene with Nathan and Haley was cute but the one with "slutty wedding sex" I didn't really believe. It looked like those two didn't really have chemistry there.Hopefully it was just this one time. All in all I think the episode was one of the best ones this season but among all the wedding episodes of the show it was one of the worst.moreless

    For months we had heard the rumors of P. Sawyer's impending dismissal from the show, so I would not exactly classify the ending of this episode as shocking. I have made my opinions on that character ever so clear and I think the show can only benefit from Hilarie Burton's awful acting no longer being a part of it.

    I enjoyed the scenes with Nick Lachey and Haley, but outside of that not much else. This show is really stagnant right now and to get out of this loop they need something major (and unpredictable) to happen in the season finale.moreless

    This episode had many funny moments (Brooke being jealous right before the wedding and Jamie on a leash, etc), along with the marriage of Leyton (FINALLY! YAH!) Loved every Leyton moment! Also, nice touch on Haley and Nathan having the dirty wedding sex haha! Very scary ending though...Definately had viewers and fans on their toes! Excellent episode! Just want Brooke to let her guard down though! Cannot wait until the season finale next Monday! This is the kind of episode that makes One Tree Hill great and explains why it has so much of a fan base! One of my top favorites!moreless

    This episode was good, a tad predictalbe but good none the less. It had sad moments, funny moments, and serious moments. All which I enjoyed. The wedding cermony looked amazing with the white roses everywhere. The vows were great. When Peyton cried I cried. Julian was very funny in this episode. Brooke, however is pissing me off. I know she was hurt in the past but really its but like 6 years, get over it already. Just follow your heart. The Peyton Julian moment was cute. Julian telling Victoria off in the end was great. I really fell in love with him at that moment. I thought Chase and Mia were going to have slutty wedding sex but it didn't happen. The Naley sex was a little random. I have never seen Haley act like that so it was a little odd, but whatever. Skillz keeping Jamie tied up on a leash was funny, but got old fast. The Brooke and Peyton moment in the beginning of the episode was cute. I love those two. A very predictable ending, but sad too. Peyton starts to bleed from her vag and faints, and Lucas rushes to her side, as always. All in all good Episode. I think the Naley wedding episode was better. High hopes for the finale. Hope I'm not let down.moreless

    OMG!!!! this was by far the best episode this season lucas and peyton finally get married OMG we've been waiting 6 years for them to finally find some stable ground and stay with it...... And i thought that was so funny but wrong that Skillz had jamie on a baby dog leash...... And how dare Julian come to lucas and peytons wedding with MOVIE brooke as his date when he was supposed to be real brooke's date.... He is OS trifelin..... And i only thought it was even more funny when she ended up at the wedding with Nick Lachey and then when he punched Julian that was even better..... That whole trying to make her jelous thing is so stupid he should have just told her how he felt and OMG Nathan and haley are so badd......WOW i never thought they would do something like that but hey they always like to suprise people so...... and finallly lucas and peytons wedding was so romantic i mean their wedding vows were straight from the heart.... and you don't see love like that in real life only on TV...... and what he did for here for when they got home was even sweeter..... And OMG!!!!! when she started bleeding, and when Lucas finally found her i was crying my eyes out becasue it was just that sad..... I can't believe that next week is the season finally i just don't know what im going to do....Season 6 was by far the best season for One Tree Hill.... I really loved this episode.... It was well plotted..........moreless

    • Victoria: You do realize the name of the company is Clothes Over Bros, yes? Julian: My father always made me feel like I wasn't good enough. Any time I had any success he would remind me of my failures. I see that in Brooke. She's so talented and good-hearted and beautiful, but she carries around this feeling that she's not good enough. And she has you to thank you for that. Good work. Victoria: Are you finished? Julian: No, not yet. I love your daughter. I'm in love with her. And one of these days she's gonna love me back and when she does I want you to understand something: you're either gonna learn to be nice to her, or you're not gonna be in her life. Nice to meet you, Victoria. Feels like I've known you all my life. Edit
