    Nate, Blair, Serena, Dan and crew it’s been awhile. Did you miss the drama? I sure did. Welcome back friends to a world where people are prettier than you and me. Welcome back to a world where teenagers get shunned and life, well, is a bitch. Enter Blaire. Poor poor Blaire. Nobody loves her. She’s the new outcast. Blaire walks through the rain looking for a cat. When did Blair get a cat? Wait is this a dream? Nate walks up to her in 30s garb and calls her Jenny. Nate goes on to say how she has no one. I think I love Chase Crawford a little. Nightmare over!

    It’s time for the first day back to school post Spring Break, where the real nightmare begins. Uh-oh! Almost step-siblings Serena and Chuck ain’t gosh darn it getting along. Serena yells at Chuck to get out the bathroom. Chuck doesn’t care. He’s Chuck. And owns all. Everyone needs a Chuck in life.

    At school, Jenny is moving up the social ladder. I don’t like Jenny. She screams jerk. Back at casa ala Chuck & Serena, it’s time for breakfast con family! Serena bolts as Chuck worms his way into Lily’s heart. Ah family. Serena and Blair make their way to school. As they walk up the stairs a pile of cake is dropped on Blair’s head by Queen Bee Jenny and her Mini Bees. See Jenny should be hated! Little Jenny has a plan up her evil sleeve. She invites Blair to dinner with the Bees. In the next scene, eww enough with Serena and Dan making out.

    They have a session of groping on the bed. I’m sorry but I don’t get their appeal. Chuck steps in to announce there will be a tasting of food for Lily’s wedding. At the tasting, Serena gets a present, it’s porn and handcuffs. Oh Chuck!

    Damn Jenny. She set Blair up. No one shows up to the restaurant leaving her alone. Later on we see Jenny eyeing a dress in her friend’s house. A scene later she’s selling it to make money for a newer and better dress. Um. Loser. Theft will totally win you friends!!

    As time goes on, the police get into the matter and the dress matter gets worse. Jenny stole a pretty darn expensive dress. Why aren’t I rich? She “tries” to do the right thing by getting it back, but the dress shop owner won’t hear of it. She calls Nate for help.

    Back at an impromptu birthday party, Jenny comes home (in said stolen dress hidden under a coat) to find her friends. She’s scared they will find out. And boy does she have the right! As she goes to get dressed her friends open the door to find her standing in the stolen garment. Whoops. Blair loves this moment and so do I. It’s full of tension and ticked off teeny-boppers. It’s what Gossip Girl does best. Blair walks off proud and heads back to the same restaurant her friends left her at. And like any good lackeys her friends come waltzing in.

    Jenny enters with Nate in tow for her second chance at Beedom. She introduces Nate to one of the Mini Bees who welcomes her back with open arms. Serena finds out who has been sending her mean little gifts in the form of a note. “S- Hope you like your presents. Coming back to town. –G.”

    It’s time for a new friend to enter the mix, welcome to the party Michelle Trachtenberg aka Georgina, do you promise to put a few people in their place?
