So I'm watching the whole series over so i can be ready to see the new and FINAL season when it airs on Jan. 11th and EVERY time I get to this episode I cry like I've never cried before..

I felt like they only killed Quinton off so that they could have an episode about losing someone. I wish they had found a way to make his death more of a storyline than something random. They could have easily made it so he was trying to protect Brooke from getting robbed or he somehow got involved in trying to stop Carrie. Anyway they did a good job making a sad episode and it was cool to see how much of a difference everyone had made in Q's life. It was also interesting to see how Haley dealt with her class, I really liked how she decided to handle Q's death with them. I also liked how Nanny Carrie had a dead son. It explains why she is doing what she is doing because no one is that crazy without a reason. It also fit well with the main storyline.moreless
It is Quentin's funeral and everybody seems to be touched by it, specially Jamie. Brooke's going crazy and starts throwing all her clothes of her store in the street and then asks Peyton for her key back, but she doesn't open up about what happened to Peyton who thinks she's mad about her mom. Haley and Lucas have to talk to their students that Quentin's dead and later both of them plus Skills, Nathan, Peyton and Jamie go to the Field's house to talk to his mother, that's where Jamie meets Andrey, Quentin's brother, and gives him Q's jersey. Nathan and Haley discuss if Jamie should or shouldn't go to Q's funeral, but Jamie acts like a young adult and convinces them that he is mature enough to go to the funeral. Everybody is together in the Scoot house and Brooke makes a really rough comment about the violence in the state and that makes Haley talks to her about doing therapy. Later in that day, Nathan tries to talk to her so she could open up at least a little bit, but she just keep pushing everyone away. We find out that Carrie had a son and she probably became a psycho after he died, that's the reason she wants to kidnap Jamie, to replace a lost son. Brooke goes talk to Peyton and apologize for transferring her anger about Victoria to her, then Peyton shows her part of the clothes that she threw on the street. The girl that shoplifted from Clos Over Bros shows up in Haley's class and she recognizes somehow that she's the girl. When she gives them an assignment, Sam, the girl, does really well at it. In the Funeral, Deb stands up for Skills and Nathan doesn't like it at all. When Q's been berried Jamie gives him his own tribute and when Brooke sees him do it she finally loses it and cries.moreless
i couldnt decide between the classification "tearjerker" or "series classic" but it was definitely both! EPIC! the emotion shown by each and every character was sensational i dont think that i have seen better from them. the all around episode was fantastic and did not leave anyone i know with dry eyes. Q's death was a very sad sad event but I wasnt sure if they could pull this off emotionally. but they lived up to their standards and brought yet another very powerful and heartbreaking episode. amazing acting done by the actors and just i have nothing more to say then WOW!moreless
The blue rock in front of the school which had Nathan's jersey number (23) now reflects Quentin's number (44) and is being used as a shrine to him.

Peyton: Brooke Davis, have you lost your mind?!
Brooke: (continues launching clothes in the street) It's my store. They're my clothes. I can do what I want with them.
Peyton: But what are you doing?

Haley: I don't know what to say to any of you. I didn't know what to say to my 5-year-old son who loved Quentin just as much as many of you do. So if you want to talk about how you're feeling...
Student: What's the point? I mean, he's gone, right? Some idiot just shot him, and now he's gone forever. So what's the point?
Haley: There is no point.
