One Tree Hill: Library Revisited (beware spoilers)

Once again, not having watched the entire rest of the series appears to have hindered my reviews. Looking back on last week's episode of "One Tree Hill," I think I would change the rating to three trees out of five. I think this episode had too much history for me to get truly into it. The episode revolved around Peyton, Brooke, Lindsey, Mia, and Haley trapped in the Tree Hill High library. Much of the episode revolves around thoughts of when Peyton was shot years ago in the library and everything that happened that day.

The episode mainly steers clear of the Scott brothers as they are involved in a basketball game at the school. Nathan wants to tell Haley that Carrie kissed him. Right as he tries to tell her, Carrie slips in and says that the news is about her having to leave them. I don't really believe that she got a scholarship, and that's why she is leaving. I have a feeling she is going to try to find her way back to Nathan somehow. I can understand that Nathan is attractive, and Carrie might be a little romance-deprived, but she is still clearly unstable. She could have anyone she wants. She doesn't have to prove that point by trying to ruin a marriage. I hope she is going away forever. I have a feeling she's not going anywhere especially since Nathan hasn't gotten the chance to tell Haley the truth yet.

Tension is higher than ever with Peyton and Lindsey. Peyton finds a bottle of some kind of alcohol which seems to go between the Lucas-loving ladies often. Peyton and Lindsey throw all kinds of bitter comments that turn truly hurtful when Peyton insults the relationship between Lindsey and her father. The girls find out they have a lot more in common than they ever thought. Who knows? If one of them could really give up on the idea of Lucas, then they would probably get along great. Lindsey has the ring. Too bad for Peyton. I have a feeling that this might not be forever and Lucas and Peyton could get back together.

The rest of "The Breakfast Club" did their best to keep a light atmosphere until help came. Mia is a really interesting character. She has truly broken out of her shell. She is excited about getting feedback from her fans. She has gotten over her fears of performing in public. In this episode, she shows that she wants to learn more about everyone in town. Mia comes up with questions that are prying and games that are silly, but end up opening up the big fight between Lindsey and Peyton. Even Haley, who is normally calm and collected, ends up getting lost in all the female drama. All of the girls try to convince Brooke that she should be getting more respect from her mother.

Mouth worried about his big opportunity to cover something special. He ended up focusing on a really sweet family connection between the Scott brothers, Dan, and Jamie. He also takes time to remember his good friend that he lost that day in the library.

I look forward to keeping up with "One Tree Hill." I don't really know what's in store, but I think that the show can keep on going and still be a good show.

Two? The episode was better than that...

I guess since you don't know the history, it wasn't.
