One Tree Hill 4X21: All of a Sudden I Miss Everyone (Patreon)

Okay. Nothing I predicted happened. At all.

While I can believe that Dan is in jail, and Karen is okay, I'm still having a hard time believing that Haley and Nathan's baby is gonna be around for the rest of the show. (Can't be a conincidence they named him James, right?)

So, Karen goes to visit Dan and seethes venom at him. She also spits at him. It was pretty great. Lucas and Nathan decide not to go see him at all. I also like this as well. I'm unsure if he'll actually spend a substantial amount of time in jail. But, since everyone goes their separate ways soon and we don't really need parents around so much, there's hope!

I've been trying to figure out how I feel about Dan and his redemption. He turned himself in, which is good. But then tried to hang himself (thus not having to pay for what he did and taking the easy way out of his feelings), which is bad. Jury's still out. We'll see how I feel going forward, I guess.

You know, I've been harping on the fact that the baby won't make it because they can't have this baby in college. I'm just realizing now that at the end of the episode they all agree to meet at the River Court in four years and always be friends. I'm wondering now if we just skip the next four years. Maybe we start next season with them returning to the River Court and get some flashbacks here and there. That would solve a lot of problems, actually.

But this episode ended so joyously, I'm afraid for what comes next!

Also, yes, I know not every thumbnail needs to be Naley, but they just make me happy!
