  • Puts every American teen show to shame. Best episode of the season, so far...hands down

    I had my reservations with some of the story lines of the new season [Brooke sleeping with her teacher, Haley's pregnancy, & Nathan's sudden turn to the bad side], but this episode made up for everything!!!

    First off, almost four seasons worth of basketball drama came to a head, with the Ravens winning the state championship. Lucas & Peyton finally got back together after the much needed break up between him & Brooke. Haley had some problems with the baby (which turned out to be nothing too big). And of course, Nathan worked through his personal demons and helped bring the victory home. Forty two minutes of perfect One Tree Hill-ness...then came the final 10 minutes.

    After Dan & Lucas spend much needed quality time together, one of the worst tragedies occurred (second to Keith's death) after Haley pushed Nathan out of the way of a speeding car being driven by Daunte (a worthless goon who wanted Nathan to throw the final game). As Haley lay bleeding in the middle of the street, an enraged Nathan attacked and (apparently) killed Daunte (although, he may have died in the crash he had after hitting Haley). Dan told Nathan to run, and then made the ultimate sacrifice by pretending to be responsible.

    The ambulance arrives as a visibly upset and overwhelmed Lucas attempts to give information to the paramedics. Tragedy #2 happens as his heart seems to give out and he collapses.

    The episode ends on a major downer: Haley & her baby's life hang in the balance, as well as Lucas'. Nathan is in agony as he realizes all of the night's events are of his doing. Dan is (possibly, since we never see him) arrested. And the lone figure of Whitey wanders the streets after the bittersweet victory of the night still hangs in the air.

    One Tree Hill proves time after time that it isn't just some vapid teen show that worries more about what clothes are hot or what or music is in. The characters are real and nowhere near perfect, but if they were, I doubt it'd make for good television.moreless

    i was fully captivated by this episode. i have to say i was losing interest in the show slowly but this episode brought me back in 100 percent. the acting was at an all time best. the championship was heartbreaking and exciting at the same time. daunte is finally off the show but at a very serious price. lucas and haley are both hospitalized and in pretty bad condition. dan does a good thing and takes the rap for his sons doing. at least nobody will find out about keith now, right? to put the cherry on top, lucas and peyton were very fun to watch. i'm not sure how long they'll last. hopefully for a while.

    this episode was fantastic. i hope they can keep this up.moreless

    Holy F****ing S**t!!!!!! My heart couldn't help but f***ing beat towards the end of the episode where Haley gets hit by the car and Lucas goes into cardiac arrest. OMG!!! I don't know about you guys but I cried with them. I got so sucked in my mouth dropped instantly. Ugh! Thank G*d Daunte is dead but I'm still pissed off he had to hurt Haley. Grrrrrrrr why why why?!!! Poor Peyton just when she got what she wanted Lucas had to be stupid and not take his pills grrrrr. I hope things are going to be ok and this show is definitely intense as hell. Can it be next wednesday already!moreless

    When the episode first began i knew it couldn't be true. Theres just no way the Ravens would have lots that game. I'm not giving a summary, bc we all know what happened, however, i love peyton and lucas, the moment on the court that they shared was sooo cute! also, theres no way the baby is going to make it through this accident, and that makes me really sad for naley. Did you see the tears in nathans eyes? how horrible was that? and the jerk daunte got what he deserved, and i hate to say it but i really have been liking the nice dan lately. its a different side obviously and i really like the show with him being a good guy. I'm still in shock over the entire episode, i cried, i laughed, i screamed (A Lot), it was just amazing!moreless

    This is one of the best episodes ever because of the tension throughout the episode. youve got tension between nate and luke over the basketball game then there is also tension between peyton and brooke because of lucas. haley also collapses which adds to the drama as well as the actual basketball game itself. wow!!! i was on the edge of my seat. also the scene in which lucas admits that he wants to be with peyton is amazing and the music throughout the episode is the best ever. it all builds up to the dramatic conclusion of the episode when haley is ran down by daunte then lucas has a heart attack. it is gripping tv!!!. this is my fav episode ever because it has a little bit of everything.moreless

Damn, that was good. Brooke: Okay. Peyton here. I like to steal boys, but I'm afraid to tell them how I feel. Peyton: Speaking of stealing... Hi, I'm Brooke, and I stole my friend Peyton's artwork so I could put it on my clothing line, and I never even said thank you. Brooke: Okay, Peyton here again. Have I mentioned that if you love me, you're probably gonna die soon? See mother one and two. Haley: Brooke! Bevin: Hi, I'm Rachel and I have red hair. Edit
    • (The girls break into the hospital corridor holding Haley) Nurse: Excuse me! I'll call security! Brooke: Yeah, call security! Why don't you call the police and tell them you're discriminating against cheerleaders? Bevin:Nice one, Brooke. Peyton: Can we get a doctor, please? Nurse: Listen to me, I don't care how special you are in your little high school, you can't just barge in here. Doctor: What's going on? Peyton: What's going on is that our friend is pregnant and she's in a lot of pain, and this bitch is about to get her ass kicked! Doctor: Ok, just calm down. I'll take a look at her. You can all wait in the lobby and... cheer for something. Haley: Thanks, you guys. Brooke: It's gonna be OK, Haley. (Haley and the doctor enter a room and the girls walk away from the nurse. They all turn their backs at the same time) Brooke: Whore! Peyton: Slut! Rachel: Bitch! Bevin: Thank you. Edit
