I liked how this episode was set up and I loved Nolan bugging houses in this episode. I wonder if he will ever turn over the incriminating video of Frank.

I think Nolan touched every railing on the way out of the apartment.

Loved it. What a crazy episode with great twists. Frank murdering Lydia was a really surprising end. Yeah I can easily see Nolan getting framed for her murder and the video disappearing.

Are we to assume that Victoria said to Lydia's ear before she made the speech that she accepted her as a friend again? Seems like Lydia was all about getting re-accepted in Victoria's life. and I loved how Victoria went 360 crazy on her afterwards. Madeline Stowe is just fantastic as Victoria.

For a second, I thought Emily was screwed with that photo lingering. Guess that's pretty insignificant now.

This show is really picking up steam. It's cool they went a different direction this week without Emily's Revenge of the week.

~~ PAL ~~

Just a minor nitpick, but how illogical is it for Lydia to want to shoehorn herself back into the Graysons' lives again, and resorting to blackmail, no less...

"I know, I know, Victoria. I'm the skank that slept with your husband. But now that I'm divorced and 10-million dollars richer, thanks to the check from your husband's slush fund account, can't we just put it all behind us and be besties again?"

It took part of that ambition, as well as seeds of doubt and groundwork laid by Emily to complete the frame job, and ultimately led to Lydia's own demise. It will be interesting to see how the video footage of the struggles between Lydia and Frank will be utilized as future ammunition for more revenge.

Personally I think Nolan will not be sucked into the homicide/suicide investigation, but it remains to be seen...

And it appeared that all it took was an "I forgive you" whispered in her ear to stop her from making that speech exposing Victoria and Conrad. What a naive and stupid woman.
