(S02E15) Gone with the Will

First you have it, and then you don’t. Chuck should be familiar with that notion. One minute he’s got his act together, the next he doesn’t. One minute he’s got a doting girlfriend the next he doesn’t. One minute he’s a millionaire and in control of his father’s industry and the next he doesn’t. So what’s the one key link to all three being taken away? Uncle Jack of course. If we thought Bart had bite, we must have underestimated baby brother Bass. Now the real question is, will he ever get it all back?  Chuck’s certainly a guy who gets what he wants.

Momma van der Woodsen and Poppa Humphrey didn’t even realize the amount of loss and deception they experienced this episode. One minute they’re baby boy searching on the sly, the next they’re cradling up to death’s sad door. But could it be? Did the rich and Gossip Girl famous get served a steaming cup of parental deception? Looks like this lost child is riding more six feet high then six feet deep after all. If there’s anything I’ve learned from GG it’s that secrets never stay that way. It wouldn’t surprise me at all to someday meet the spawn who could turn every one’s world upside down, and almost already has.

Speaking of which, will S and Lonely Boy ever truly recover from the very disclosed knowledge of their joint sib? Of course they will. Money, popularity and an ability to set trends will get you everywhere when it comes to the unusual. Can nobody remember Angelina Jolie’s brotherly kiss just a few years back? Now if her current beloved status doesn’t show the ability to rebound, I don’t know what does.

As for Eric and Jenny, were we ever really worried? Those two adorable kids couldn’t break up even if they wanted too. Too bad he’s gay, they’d be a match made in heaven.
