With The Walking Dead Season 2 at a pause till February and the New Year have finally started, a rating of the top 10 Walking Dead is in order. Season 1 of the series was phenomenal and this season isn’t falling short. The series has had scenes that captured and frighten the hearts of many, but what are the top 10 best scenes of to date for The Waking Dead? Wait no more……scroll down to begin.
10. Carl Gets Shot
If you kept up with this season’s episodes, you would see Carl get shot in slow motion. No, this wasn’t on purpose, it was purely an accident. While the hanging with his father, Rick, and Shane, Carl saw a deer. With the captivating beauty of this gorgeous animal, Carl stopped to admire its beauty. Couple seconds later, you see the deer and Carl fall to the ground that will leave you in awe. The shooter was Otis and he couldn’t see the boy since the deer was standing in the way. Luckily, the boy survives and amazingly makes a pretty fast recovery from the help of a veterinarian at Otis’s camp. It somewhat makes you wonder that must be one hell of a vet or Carl has great healing abilities…
9. Rick’s Wake Up
In the pilot episode of Season 1 of the series, Rick wakes up from his coma that he suffered before the zombie epidemic began. He wakes up in complete confusion and begins to walk around to figure out why there aren’t any nurses or other personnel coming to his aid. Getting close to a doorway that is closed off and he sees one of the ‘walkers’ chowing down on a fresh corpse. Stunned and slowly starting to freak out, he quickly finds his way down the stairs and out the hospital to find the parking lot filled with dead bodies of civilians and military personnel. At this moment, you can officially call this the beginning of the worst day ever for anybody. It’s this reason why it’s makes the list because it made all viewers who saw this scene the first time think, “Crap”.
8. Glenn The Knight in Shining Armor
In this scene, Glenn actually saves his girlfriend from a hungry walker at the pharmacy in Season 2. The main reason why it made the list is because it is the first time Glenn goes Rambo and takes out a walker by himself with a hand weapon. It’s rather risky for him because he’s the main character to be the first to hide and need saving. He cuts…well, hacks…the walker to submission. His reward: a kiss from his girlfriend and her full affection. "You’re the man, Glenn."
7. Morgan’s Dilemma
Many fellow watchers of the series remember the characters Morgan and his son, Duane. They appeared in the first episode and never again since, but are involved in a powerful scene. After Rick leaves to go searching for his family in Atlanta, Morgan goes to the upstairs window and starts shooting his new acquired rifle. After taking out a walker, he spots his wife who became a walker after being bitten. He sights in to give her a quick death, but his feelings for her stops him from pulling the trigger. We never know if he ever pulled the trigger or survived the horde of walkers coming to the house, but hope they did make it out somehow. The scene brings one of the many dilemmas to any true zombie fanatic: Could you ever kill a loved one when they have turned to a zombie?
6. Walker Swarming the Tank
This is a scene that is both informative and very intense. Rick gets surrounded by walkers while on a horse when he arrives in Atlanta. He then falls off once the horse gets freaked out by the horde of the living dead. With an intense fight that had moments when he was about to be lunch meat he finds safety in the tank, but he loses his bag of weapons. While in the tank, the horse becomes a tasty meal and makes it clear that the walkers aren’t shy of eating living animals. Poor horse should’ve never let that man use her as a source of transportation.
5. Herd of Walkers
This particular scene another informative scene about the zombies in the series that shows you can treat them like the T-Rex from Jurassic Park. The season 2 pilot starts out with group on a highway heading to Fort Benning. Unlikely, when they are forced to make a way with all the abandoned cars on the road, they make a small fuss that leads a herd of walkers toward their direction. The group hides underneath the cars and stay completely still. Sadly, Sophia is discovered because she emerges far too early from her hiding spot and she's spotted by a lingering pack of walkers that begins the seemingly endless search for the little girl.
4. Abstracting the Walker from the Well
This scene actually startled me a little bit. The group found a fat, disgustingly large walker in the well next to the one they were getting water from. Trying to make sure it didn’t contaminate the drinking water any further, the group decide to use Glenn to get the walker out. When Glenn is lowered down, a slight mishap causes Glenn screaming at the top of his lungs to pull him out while the walker tries to make a snack out of his leg. Glenn is luckily pulled out unscathed and manages to harness the walker. While pulling it out, the walker splits in half and spew all of its’ insides into the well. No more drinking water.
3. Walker Ambush
This scene is number 3 because it had the most action. Literally, 1/3 of the camp was lost and everyone was fighting for their lives. While Rick, Glenn, T-Dogg, and Daryl Dixon venture out to save Dixon’s older brother, Merle, and retrieve Rick's weapons, the camp gets ambushed by walkers. Ed gets eaten alive and many other people in the camp are devoured by the walkers. The rescue team comes back just in time to save the rest of the group. Sadly, Amy dies in the arms of Andrea. The scene satisfied most viewers for the yearning for a good walker battle and it was quite appetizing. However, I do wonder on who was keeping watch that night.
2. Death of Sophia
Throughout most of Season 2, the group had been searching for Sophia. The poor, defenseless little girl had run away from the group when she was being chased by walkers. At the end of the last episode to air, Sophia came walking out of the walker filled barn and looked to have turned into a walker for some time. This scene is number 2 in the list because this is a very surprising and emotional one. Carol becomes hysterical as her greatest fear becomes a reality. Rick goes up to Sophia and doesn’t hesitate to shoot her with his revolver. This is one of the scenes that will make all the past episodes seem worth the wait to find out what happened to the little girl.
1. Death of Otis
The best scene by far in the series of the Walking Dead is the death of Otis. It’s not because he died, but how the big nice guy died. While going out in search of medical supplies for Carl, Otis and Shane run into a problem on their supply run. They were fighting off hordes of walkers at the high school where the medical supplies where at. In all this commotion, the two got split up and decided to regroup on the road outside. Shane found himself trapped by walkers when he injured his leg while getting away from them in the school building. Luckily, Otis saved him with his sharp shooting and both began running on the road back to the truck. While running on the road, the walkers were quickly catching up to them. With both men having one bullet left, Shane tells Otis, “I’m so sorry..” and shoots him in the leg. Shane plies the needed medical supplies from Otis and leaves him as bait for him to get away. Twitter was booming with tweets about this scene and many viewers didn’t condone what he did. This brought a great moral debate for fans of the series: If you were in the same position, what would you have done and was it truly wrong? Would you have done the same thing to save your life and save the person you cared about? Tough questions, but nonetheless, it is the most powerful and controversial scene of The Walking Dead.

'The Walking Dead' Recap: Season 2, Mid-Season Finale - 'Pretty Much Already Dead'
Wiley Taylor
11/28/2011
Last night was The Walking Dead midseason finale, which had the right amount of suspense that many viewers were dying for. This episode yet again was a bit slow from the start and had emotions flying everywhere. At the end, everything came together and certain questions were finally answered.
The midseason finale opened up with Glenn nervously telling the group that “there are walkers in the barn” and the whole group had the same facial expression as that of a fan witnessing the downfall of their favorite team at the Super Bowl. The group goes to check it out and Shane is the first one to start freaking out.
Although he was a bit harsh and rude in his reasoning, he did have good choices: He suggested that they should leave or neutralize the situation. This was a major hazard for the group since they all sleep outside near the barn every night. Rick shoots down both ideas of leaving and killing the walkers because they are still searching for Sophia and also that it is Hershel’s land. Shane finally snaps and tells everyone that searching for her at this point is pointless because the likelihood is that she is dead or a walker. As usual, Rick wanted to calm everyone down and go talk to Hershel to straighten things out. If you saw last week's episode, anyone could tell that discussion with Hershel wasn’t going to go well.
Surprisingly, I noticed how easily everyone in the group seems to forget how they were ambushed by stealthy walkers at night when Rick went to search for guns. Also, in the timeline of the episode, Sophia has been gone for more than 4-5 days. The chances for her being fine are slim to none since she is just a young girl who probably never experienced being out in the wilderness and zombies are after her. My final issue is why Shane is the only one seeing the danger of this. For all we know, if Hershel gets upset with the group, he could easily set the walkers on them while they're asleep.
Rick walks into the house calmly while Hershel is reading a book over lunch. Just like Dale, Rick reiterates that the world is not like it was before and these “people” are already dead: They are simply dangerous vessels of who they use to be. He admits to him that he is also changing from the man he used to be before the epidemic. Yet, Hershel stands his ground and still wants them off his land. Rick goes as far as to drop his ace up his sleeve: He tells Hershel that his wife is pregnant. At first, Hershel's face suggests that he might reconsider, but he denies them their stay and he wants them gone by the end of the week. Rick storms out and informs Shane about the talk with Hershel and that his wife is pregnant. Shane's only response is “Congratulations” and a look of panic.
In an adrenaline-filled rampage, Shane confronts Lori and tells her that the baby is most likely his and that Rick isn’t fit for this world. He tells her that Rick is the enemy and that he can sniff out who doesn’t belong in this world. He drops his harmless threat about him leaving the group to save Carl’s life, which made him a hero again. Shane also saved Lori’s life four times, but she tries to say that Rick saved her once at the zombie ambush the night they ate fish fry and he then bursts her bubble that it was actually him that saved her. In the end, he believes that the baby is his and she promises it isn’t nor will ever be his. Man, talk about being cold blooded and still not accepting the obvious.
Dale again warns Andrea of Shane as being bad news and that she should stay away. Mildly annoyed, she tells him that she is doing okay and “things are different” for her. Dale then wanders off with the guns and Shane quickly becomes wise to his plan and catches up with him. The men get heated with each other while Dale, pointing the rifle at his group member, expresses his accusations of Shane killing Otis. Shane, unafraid and still making threats, tells him: “You’re pretty much already dead.” Dale lowers his weapon and Shane walks off with the guns.
Meanwhile, Hershel initiates Rick into the ideals of his group by having him help them wrangle up some “sick neighbors” out in the woods near the farm. Of course, he goes with Hershel because of the situation at hand. The group snares the walkers with snare poles to the barn in order to restore them. Rick's only question at this point is what will happen when the barn is full of walkers, but Hershel never answers.
At this time, Shane assumes leadership of the group when the group is lacking focus. He gives everyone a gun who can shoot a gun and gets ready to take care of the barn situation. Once Shane sees Rick going through the motions of being initiated into Hershel's group, he storms down the hill to stop the madness. To get everyone focused, he tells them that the walkers are the ones that killed Amy and everyone else they loved. He fires a couple shots at the walker snared by Hershel and explains to the old man that these “people” aren’t people at all. He finally shoots the zombie in the head and Hershel drops to his knees in shock. Quickly, he breaks open the door and the walkers start crawling out. It’s shooting practice for the group, until a special someone comes walking out.
After all the zombies come out and are dead on the ground. Sophia comes distraughtly walking out and it's apparent that she has been a walker for some time, probably ever since the first day. Everyone is in shock and can’t believe that they have been searching for her everywhere but the barn. For the episode’s climatic end, Rick walks up to the little girl and shoots her in the head without any remorse or hesitation to exemplify the rule that once one of the members of the group is a walker, they are not the loved one anymore.
Now that the show has reached its midseason, we will have to wait until February to see the rest of this slow-paced season. Let’s just hope that watching season 1 will bear me over until the new episodes air. This is going to be a long 76 days.

The Walking Dead: Season 2 Episode 6, 'Secrets'
Wiley Taylor
11/22/2011
The lies come to surface
In this week’s episode of The Walking Dead, named “Secrets”, all the secrets of the groups comes out and some are finally resolved. As informative as the title can get it, everybody views and emotions sprouted out constantly throughout the episode. In all, it answered most of viewer’s questions and speculations about what would happen if these secrets were revealed.
The episode "Secrets" start off with Lori and Carl feeding baby chicks that don’t have a mother to take care of them. Carl notices this also, and mentions his concern with his mother asking where is the “mommy chicken”. Lori puts on a smirk face of a mother who about to lie to her son and she does. She says “Maybe she’s somewhere else…” Really? Your son got shot, experienced zombies, and witnessed the world turn into a zombie apocalypse and you decided to lie to him about where the mommy hen is? Carl is easily offended but shrugged it off by saying “everything has to eat something”. Lori’s face is priceless with the surprise that her son is quickly growing up into a sociopath.
Elsewhere, one of the Greene’s group members breaks the legs of the mother hen and then stuff it in a bag with other chickens. She takes it to the barn and hurdles them into the middle of the barn from above to feed the zombies of their love ones. Creepy.
In the meantime, Glen is stares at the Zombie Barn through binoculars, but Maggie startles him by storming over with some food. She scolds him for being so obvious with his staring and tries to buy his silence with peaches with jerky. Although Maggie needs Glen to trust her, he is more worried about being a very bad liar, which he admits.
He tries to lie, but he manages to not tell anyone for about half an hour. With so much weight on his mind, he approaches Dale with a hypothetical question. “You’re old, you know things. What if somebody told you something that somebody else shouldn’t know?” Dale simply tells him to spit out and Glen says “There’s walkers in the barn and Lori’s pregnant.” Jaw dropped, he didn’t see that one coming.
Dale walks over to the stables to confront Hershel. He tells Mr. Greene that he knows about his little zombie collection in the barn. Hershel explained that he believe it was murder to kill a walker and the ones in the barn are “loved ones” who are “sick”. Dale can’t seem to come up with anything solid argue his logic and again he is left with a blank facial expression that tells that the doctor is actually somewhat crazy. All he can say is “Rick's a man of conscience," and Grimes replies "But are you so sure about everyone in your group?"
Later, Carl wants to learn how to shoot and lies to Dale about needing a walkie-talkie. He instead grabbed a pistol from the RV arsenal and whispers to Shane that he wanted some private gun lessons. Shane squealed on Carl. Lori freaked out, but Carl stood strong: "I want to look for Sophia. I want to defend our camp." Good point, but I wonder he will do when he actually has to shoot a zombie.
Shane instructs the group on the shooting lessons and Andrea turns out to be his best student. Guess that what happens when you shoot an actual person. He invites her to his office hours for further practice with a moving target. The target was only part of the test and he started messing with her head. This caused her to miss so much that she never actually hit the target and when Shane goes too far, she storms off in anger. He catches up with her in his eco-friendly truck and apologizes, but he also informs her of his possible lead on Sophia. He invites her to come with him as his back up and she hops right in.
At the farm, Dale notices that Lori is nauseated by the smell of the meat he is cooking. The wise old-timer tells her a small story about how his wife would get nauseated whenever she smelled cooking meat during her pregnancy that ended in a miscarriage. Lori gets where he is getting, but came to the surprise is that he even knew about her and Shane. She tells him that she wanted to “feel something, anything” and tells him that it’s Rick’s. This is extremely fuzzy because both Shane and Rick had sex with her around the same week. After seeing her son showing signs of being a sociopath, she worries about how her baby will turn out. At this point, she her face tells that she came to a resolution.
She asks Glenn to make another run to get abortion pills and he takes Maggie along with him. The couple gets into a debate on their different views about walkers, which ends with a stalemate and tensions rising. At the store, Maggie gets attacked by a walker and Glenn saves her by hatching the zombie in the head.
Back to Shane and Andrea, the two come to a suburban complex and they begin searching for Sophia in one of the houses. The house is filled with dead people who took option B, basically suicide. The smell of the rotting flesh attracts zombies and the two shoot their way out. As a direct result of Shane’s teaching skills of using a weapon, Andrea quickly becomes a sharp shooter. They escape and on the drive back, Andrea seems to be turned on by the whole ordeal and decides to have high school sex session in the car on the way back. Go Shane!
On their arrival back, Dale casually took Shane aside and said he should consider getting on his way. Shane laughed at his apparent jealousy. Dale laid all his chips on the table, noting that Shane had been extremely vague about what actually happened to Otis. Shane replied "Otis died a hero." but Dale brought up the time Shane pointed a gun at Rick: "I know what kind of man you are." Shane became infuriated and his counterargument turned into a threat: "You think I'd kill my best friend? What you think I'd do to some guy I don't even like?" Dale looked turned pale, while Shane smiled and walked away.
Upon Glenn’s and Maggie’s return, Maggie explodes on Lori and explains to her that they almost got killed because her touchy secret clinical “trip”. Later, Glenn tells Lori that she shouldn’t make the decision on her own, but exactly what she plans on doing. She swallows boatload of pills and soon repents what she has done. She runs outside and forces herself to puke it out.
While Lori is away from the tent, Rick finds the abortion packaging. He finds her outside and they go at it. "I'm not giving birth in a ditch,” says Lori. Rick revealed that he was angry with her for not talking to him and about the other lie. He knew there was a wall of untruth between them that dealt with her and Shane. "Is there anything else I should know about?" he asked. Lori responded, "Shane and I…."
I expected Rick’s acceptance of the situation because from episode two, according to Lori, it was always hard to make Rick mad and that he was a very understanding individual. He proves her knowledge right by his response to the whole situation: "I know. Of course I know. You thought I was dead. Right?" Lori simply nodded her head and they both held each other.
The real question now, since Rick knows about the affair, is will he ever confront his best friend Shane about it?

The Walking Dead, Season 2, Episode 5 'Chupacabra'
Wiley Taylor
11/14/2011
Last week was a shocker and this week lives up to it. I’m very impressed with the series so far. To be honest, I plan on buying the series when it comes out. Enough chit-chat, let’s get into zombie horror heaven.
"Chupacabra" is a fast and loose storytelling episode by , using a major flashback at the outset and getting inside the head of one Daryl Dixon--hero, survivor, wild card. The beginning of the second season has been abundant somewhat slow and leaves me pondering when in the world are they going to find Sophia. Luckily, the fantastic writers are keeping me glued to the series with some of their imaginative input into the series.
SPOILER: The Dixon brothers aren’t even in the comic. They’re characters that are created by the writers and the writers keep Shane from biting the dust. According the Walking Dead comic, Shane dies within the first season of the comic strip. To be honest, the way the writers infuse them in the series is superb. I applaud you and I’m sure other fellow die hard WDC fan’s love it also.
The episode starts with a flashback that shows Carol's husband being the abusive husband/father that we all remember. Moving along, Shane and Lori try to cope with Rick's absence as attack helicopters douse a nearby city with napalm. Cool.
Back in the present, Lori awakes from her crappy night of finding out she is pregnant. You would’ve thought she would’ve made sure not to get pregnant in zombie filled world. Amidst waking up, Carol comes to her with a proposition: She wants Lori's help cooking dinner to thank Hershel's family for their hospitality. She asks Lori to rally the others since she's the team's “unofficial first lady”. Rick and Shane oversee plans for the daily Sophia search that now includes Jimmy, boyfriend of Greene daughter Beth, and newly-armed Andrea. This is the first point in the episode at which Rick and Shane clash over Sophia, but, as usual, they let it slide for the time being.
The search proceeds mostly as normal, except that Daryl goes off on his own riding a horse to climb a nearby cliff and get a view of the entire area. Meanwhile, Rick and Shane, searching together in woods, get into a serious argument about the ongoing rescue operation of Sophia. Shane points out that, before the apocalypse, search crews would look for a body after 72 hours. He thinks Sophia is dead and that continuing the chase only puts Rick's people in danger. Rick's still committed since he is the blame for her disappearance. Really, why would leave a child to defend for her in the woods when there are zombies around and give her horrible directions? The fight turns intense to the point that they don’t realize they’ve rounded up crossing another search team's path.
Meanwhile, Daryl's made his way to the high ground, where he spots something interesting the creek below. However, his horse spooks while on the way down and he ends up tumbling painfully down slope into the creek. His injuries are serious because he winds up piercing himself with one of his crossbow bolts. Ouch!
Struggling to stay alive and conscious, Daryl hallucinates his brother, Merle. Healed of his self-inflicted injury, Merle tells Daryl that Rick and co. considers him a freak and that they've made him their errand boy. Merle explains that forgotten about him and worked so hard to find Sophia, while not bothering to look for his him, his own blood. Merle suggests that Daryl betray the survivors and shoot Rick in the face. Before he can respond properly, his head clears and he realizes that what he thinks is Merle is really a walker going for his leg. He fights off the walker and another hungry one before beginning his climb to the top of the cliff. It's an agonizing retreat, but he manages to escape with two precious pieces of cargo: A necklace of zombie ears and the thing he spotted that brought him to the brink of death in the first place. It's a doll that belonged to Sophia...!
Daryl shambles back to the outskirts of Hershel's farm. Ms. Trigger-Happy, Andrea, spots him at a distance through the scope of her new rifle, but the sun’s glare causes her to see Daryl as a walker. He really does look like a walker from the far because he's covered in blood from eating a squirrel in the woods and his wounds are apparent. She warns everyone about the incoming zombie, so Rick, Shane and a couple others head out to intercept it. Dale tells Andrea to hold her fire, but of course Andrea shoots and hits Daryl in the head. It looks worse than it is because he is merely grazed and unconscious. Great job, Ms. Trigger-Happy!
Of course, Carol makes sure to thank Daryl for his ongoing fight for Sophia's life; Andrea spends the rest of the episode absolutely crushed for her actions.
Among all this chaos, there's this whole thing with Glenn and Maggie similar to a college late night hookup: Glenn doesn't know where he stands with the farmer's daughter after their steamy encounter at the pharmacy. He's got eleven condoms left, but it doesn't look like he’s going to use it anytime soon. Maggie changed it up once she hears that her father disapproves of the prior tryst and, like any defiant daddy’s girl, she passes Glenn a note that says, "Tonight When?" Glenn's response: "Ever done it in a hayloft?" Glenn heads out early to meet Maggie there with a blanket and gets surprised when Maggie shows up, mid-freaked out. She's not in time, however--he's already discovered the barn's horrible secret. Hershel's barn hides a herd of walkers. Maggie: "You weren't supposed to see this." Glenn feelings at this time: Mind blown.

'Revenge' Recap: Episode 6, 'Charade'
Wiley Taylor
11/5/2011
This episode definitely lives up to its title...
On tonight’s episode of Revenge, it opens up with the Greysons taking a photo shoot where the couple seems to be showing their troubles on their shoulders. A news reporter is doing a story on the family and she has horrible timing. It’s even noted by Conrad saying to his wife, Victoria, “The timing is less than ideal,” which references what has happened in the past episodes.
Similar to many of the episodes, the story involves another party: Greysons’ 25th anniversary. With everything occurring within the family home, the façade relates flawlessly to Emily’s open quotation of Shakespeare’s Hamlet. God has given you one face and you make yourself another.”
For Emily, she comes home to find the homicidal ex-Greysons lap dog, Frank, in her house digging up info on her. Frank tells her that he knows about her juvenile records, while holding them in his hand, and he is determined to find out. Oddly enough, with all the money she has, you would’ve thought she'd have those files magically “erased.” When he leaves, Emily quickly pulls her phone from underneath the flooring of her house to call Sharon Shelton.
Shelton is the warden and most likely the one who taught her new tricks of revenge. She answers the phone, saying, “Amanda! I was hoping you were never going to make this call.” Amanda responds in the simple manner of telling her she thought the same thing.
Daniel is sitting at the sofa with the interviewer from the Hampton Times to discuss about him and the family. The reporter pries when she senses that he is seeing someone who he is falling for. Of course, like any good boyfriend, he does what his girlfriend, Emily, tells him and he gives her nothing on who she is or if he is in a relationship.
The snake, Tyler, gives up the info on Emily and leads the journalist to her doorstep. It takes no time for Emily to figure out who was the culprit and she quickly makes a phone call to Nolan. What took her so long to figure out that she must deal with this troublesome nuisance of a man?
Nolan approaches Tyler on the street and tells him that he should meet up with him because he knows his dirty secrets dealing with a restraining order. Of course, the little jerk goes to his place on time to talk things over. Finally, dirty info is found about this annoying, stuck up fly.
Later on, Frank breaks into the warden’s office that night and finds what he is looking for. Apparently, he found the real Emily Thorne and the warden never thought to take it with her when he came snooping around earlier that day. The warden is so much help, isn’t she?
The Greysons have their planned dinner and all goes to shambles. With Emily and Delcan in attendance, what could possibly go wrong? Delcan spills the beans on Emily’s nice gesture for Jack, and their little talk at the Fourth of July party in the last episode. Of course, Daniel gets jealous and storms away after Emily’s feelings about her gesture towards his brother.
Tyler skips the dinner and meets up with Nolan. Nolan asks, “What’s a gay hustler doing posing as a Harvard student?” We would all want to know this because frankly, his agenda hasn’t been identified.
“Gay?” He shrugs. “ Hustler? Maybe.”
Nolan tells him that he’s “three on the Kinsey scale,” which means he’s bisexual, and Tyler begins his sob story. Apparently, his family lost everything and he is trying to get back to his wealthy lifestyle. Tyler then moves in closer to Nolan in order to make a deal and this particular agreement deals with a little nightcap.
Frank goes out to find the real Emily Thorne who is an exotic dancer. Frank talks to her for exchange of cash and agrees with her to talk some more about her imposter. When he goes out to meet up with her, he gets clocked on the back of his head by the dancer while he’s on the phone with Victoria.
Back at the dinner, the bickering starts and everyone leaves except theGrayson couple. Victoria gets angry with Conrad and kicks him out of the house. He gladly leaves.
Daniel and Emily argue over her nice gesture for Jack. She, of course, uses the L.O.V.E. word as a way to keep him in her clutches. Later that night, he tells her that he loves her too.
Before that, Daniel talks to his mother, Victoria, why she doesn’t like Emily? She responds with the typical motherly answer on the lines of “I don’t want you to get hurt.” He responds to her by saying, “You can’t control on who you fall in love for.” Sweet, yet cheesy.
The real Emily goes to see Amanda at her house, while Daniel sleeps in her bed. Real Emily says she's taken care of Frank and we see Frank lying in field of bushes, presuming dead.
Things are starting to get rather complicated for Amanda. Let’s hope she still has some tricks up her sleeve.

'Revenge' Episode 6, 'Intrigue' recap
Wiley Taylor
10/27/2011
For almost any woman’s dream, or if not all, waking up to in your Hamptons beach house next to the heir of the town’s richest family is the perfect morning. Emily had a nice nightcap with Daniel in the last episode. Just before they were going to cuddle once again, they are interrupted by a sudden knock.
A frighten Nolan is at the door with some vital information on Lydia Davis. According to Nolan, Lydia is currently in a coma after she was pushed off her fifth floor rooftop but Nolan was able to acquire the paperwork and the photo before things got crazy. Top things off in this bad situation, Emily has acquired a video of Frank lying to Victioria about Lydia.
With this video, Emily can use it to take the potential heat off her and place it on Frank. This is probably perfect timing because this week is the Grayson’s Fourth of July party that has been held for the last 20 years.
The cunning, yet manipulative, Tyler is still meddling with Daniel and Emily, and arranges for a double date with Ash. Tyler is playing his cards well, but his goal is still unclear.
While Declan is fighting for Charlotte, he encourages Jack to do the same with Emily. With new found hope of love, Jack heads over to Emily’s with a toolbox, intending to repair and move the porch swing. Emily is touched by his kindness, as does Daniel, who is there to claim his territory and takes her on the double date.
Tyler begins to start telling a story in order brag about his wealth and luxuries he has. Emily becomes skeptical on the truth of his story and Tyler becomes flustered. Agitated to the fact that he is exposed in his lies, he quickly excuses himself.
Frank tells Victoria that Conrad was never the right man for her and Victoria plays the naïve role. Conrad catches Frank and tells him that he is fired after 20 years of “of service” that involved keeping the powerful couple out of jail. Frank is offered Conrad’s jet to go “far away”, but Franks’ mannerisms suggest he plans otherwise.
Delcan empties out a lobster cage to try and sell them to get the money to take Charlotte out in order to win her love. Although, he doesn’t notice how close he really is to obtaining it. The rugged bearded owners of the cage confront Delcan to beat him up and get their money back. Luckily, Jack’s bat and Daniel’s money saves Delcan from painful beat down.
Tyler for some reason doesn’t want Daniel to be working at the bar, so he puts ruffies in his drink to drug him. This snake then proceeds outside to slam his head against a pillar outside and blame it on Daniel to Victoria.
Jack takes Emily away from the party to tell his true feelings for her. Although, she has some feelings for him also, she resists her desires to keep with her master plan. Jack is heart broken by the rejection and leaves defeated in the pursuit to win her heart.
As suspense is building, Frank pulls Nolan into the pool house and demands to know why he was at Lydia’s apartment. Nolan is scared out his mind, but is saved when Emily and Tyler come walking in on a heated discussion about Daniel. Frank disappears before the two storms into the pool house, finding Nolan petrified on the ground.
Nolan walks out with Emily and tells her that Frank is on to them, while Frank watches in the shadows.
Emily heads home to find her newly redone porch swing and sit in it to watch the fireworks, while Frank spies on her. Delcan gives Charlotte a romantic kiss on the “Amanda.” Jack comes home from the party to find Daniel passed out on his bed.
The show is getting juicer by each episode.

Woman plans to sue FilmDistrict over ‘Drive’ trailers
Wiley Taylor
10/10/2011
Have you ever been duped into seeing a bad movie? You probably just went home to rant to friends and family about it, but a woman from Detroit wants to take this issue to court, reported Moviefone.com.
According to WDIV’s Ron Meloni, Sarah Deming of Detroit, Mich. has filed a lawsuit against FilmDistrict. She claims that the studio mislead her with its marketing campaign for Drive and wants her ticket refunded with the end of misleading movie trailers. The suits states:
“The Studio Promoted the film Drive as very similar to the Fast and Furious, or similar, series of movies … Drive bore very little similarity to a chase, or race action film…having very little driving in the motion picture.”
Deming went in her claim that movie possessed an anti-Semitic tone throughout the film.
“Drive was a motion picture that substantially contained extreme gratuitous defamatory dehumanizing racism directed against members of the Jewish faith, and thereby promoted criminal violence against members of the Jewish faith.”
To make matters even more stranger, she will make her individual lawsuit to a class action lawsuit. In the result of doing this, it will allow others to join in.
Drive earned mixed reviews throughout its opening week. The film got a C minus grade on CinemaScore, but an A minus from rottentomatoes.com critics.
