Nip/Tuck 10/7

Wow...what an amazing episode tonight! Several different storylines coming to a boiling point and I learned a new word - tankles.

This might very well turn out to be my favorite show this season. It has turned out much better than I originally anticipated.

I agree, Great episode

Glad to see Jessalyn Gilsig will be sticking around a little while longer.

It's looks safe to say that Matt is Christian's now

Didn't see the whole show but are you sure the word isn't thankles (i.e. the thighs go right into the ankles).

I love this series...

Next week looks incredible.

I am now interested in the storyline involving Matt, his friend and the girl.

Nope it's tankles (she says, "tank ankles = tankles").
There's also cankles (calf ankles)

I knew it! Sorry to gloat, but I have to pat myself on the back for calling it at the beginning of the season.

This was a really good episode. Some very funny lines and interesting stories.

I'm really glad to see Jessalyn Gilsig again. I sincerely hope she becomes a regular.

WhattheFFF: You didn't miss anything. This was the first episode where the girl from the accident was shown since she had her surgery.

The multiple personality disorder woman was okay, but that one scene where Justice came out was too melodramatic.

Is Matt still going out with that cheerleader girl (no, not that lesbian one--the other one)? If so, where the hell is she? I don't recall them mentioning that the two of them broke up, but if they're still together, why aren't they eating lunch together?

Next week's episode looks really good. The premise of
Spoiler:
smuggling heroine through breast implants
is extremely interesting and makes me wonder if people have tried that in real life (they probably have).

The show's timeline is a little screwy. Some storylines are greatly compressed in between episodes, especially when it comes to the recovery time needed for patients to heal from surgery, while other storylines progress in a more linear manner from episode to episode.

This was the first time it was revealed that the girl came out of her coma.

I'll go ahead and gloat about surmising that Matt was really Christian's son, and when Sean finds out, his entire world is going to fall apart in a big way.

This show is totally addictive in a way that you don't realize the hour passes so effortlessly.

I sort of feel sorry for Joely Richardson because it seems like she spends the entire episode crying or about to cry, or just finished crying. She looked like hell all throughout the episode due to Julia being in so much pain, having to suffer through her husband's infidelity and not being about to direct any of her hurt towards Megan, the dead mistress.

Christian and Gina...now there's a pair headed for disaster in a big way. Can you imagine them at PTA meetings?

The Matt/Henry/Runover girl subplot is getting stale. They need to figure something out and be done with it.

Almost had a heart attack when the Sean's daughter appeared in the episode. How long has it been since we saw her in an episode?

Next episode definitely looks to have that "Kingpin" vibe to it.

Sean's daughter? I didn't know he had one. I've only seen the last four episodes. Someone fill me in.

Sean's daughter was the almost recipient of the bird that Christian tried to give her as her belated birthday present (as Sean and Julia didn't extend an invite to Christian for her birthday party).

Oh ok. I was thinking this was another character they made a brief appearance from another storyline from an earlier episode. Although her appearance (the bird) was brief. Thanks

Wasn't the gangster already in an eariler episode...Christian was shooting Botox into his girlfriend or something? I thought that was the last we would see of that guy...but I guess Christian somehow gets involved with him again.

BTW...the car accident girl recovered way too fast. Actually shocked me that they would not show her waking up from the coma...but rather re-introduce her as fully healed.

I was thinking the same thing. She's either crying or angry in every scene.

The recovery of the coma girl felt a bit rushed but it's no big deal to me because I'm having such a fun time with this show. I've been hooked since the premiere and there hasn't been one episode that has disappointed me. Really entertaining from start to finish. Gonna be tough waiting for new eps but I'm glad 24 is just around the corner.

Yes he was in the pilot.
Spoiler:
He is the father or brother of a little girl that was molested by one of his associates. This associate also stole some of his money that he used to have Christian give him a new face. The tattooed guy found him in the end and made Christian take him to the guy to kill him.

And from the looks of the preview, Christian and Matt don't really have a choice whether to get involved or not.
