Blair calling in the cavalry in the form of Chuck and Nate made me giggle (as did the fact that they both came).

That said, I am really not sure if telling Nate would be a good idea. Chuck, for some reason, makes perfect sense - I think you have a good chance of him being helpful and keeping his mouth shut - but Nate? Not so much.

The scene where they're all talking about the bad things they did and Chuck ending with, "I'm Chuck Bass," made me giggle.

(Speaking of Chuck, I think his and Eric being bros is quite sweet. As is Chuck's relationship with Serena's mother - I really like how respect sher and that understated scene where he helps her into her coat.)

I really adored Blair's smile she she swanned up to Chuck to start scheming with him.

Okay, Blair and Chuck waking up together? So fucking cute. They have amazing banter.

...and I'm totally imaging the time he wore nothing but his scarf (and maybe multi-colored socks) while screwing her.

Also hilarious was Blair slamming the door in Chuck's face and later straightening his tie, telling him they do not have a relationship of any sort and then kicking him in the shins.

I wanted her to make his suffer, and she is! Ah, Blair.

(Tangentially, I don't think I've met a boy this masochistic since Sai.)

The whole scene where Blair sends Georgina to reform school was freaking priceless and an actually very in-character way to get her off-screen. (For a while - I have no doubt she'll be back.)

I was surprised (and pleased) that we got a flat-out explicit apology from Chuck - unsurprised that he choked on the whole 'actually having a relationship' thing.

Also, I've been thinking for a while that the Bass' are New Money - which both explains Chuck's incredibly materialistic personality and his sense of the actual value of money i.e. that you need it to pay rent. As well as Bart's go-for-the-wallet techniques for controlling his son.

One thing that I must comment on: Dirota, the Waldorf's maid? (Or however you spell her name.) Makes me cringe. So hard. I mean, seriously? The doesn't speak English well devoted maid who opens presents with the family? *cringe cringe cringe* Could they be any more classist and cliche?
