Greek: When the Morning Comes

Greek:
"Fumble"

Well, we were all grappling to come to terms with things tonight. Rusty was trying to figure out what exactly had happened to him the night before. Casey knew that what she'd been up to the night before could lead to trouble (she had had drunken, unprotected sex with Cappie) and spent the day dealing with the fallout from that. And as for me, I spent the evening trying to come to terms with the fact that every episode of Greek from here on out will not be as magical as the Beaver-centric "All About Beav" of two weeks ago.

Last week's episode wasn't as fantastic as "All About Beav," but it did have some rather funny moments. This episode, however, wasn't as amusing. Not that it was bad; it was just pretty serious. Thank goodness we (and Calvin) had a chance to watch Rusty uncover his own humiliating drunken episodes and that Katherine turned up to whip off some fantastic lines about how she has "taken a lover." All in all, the episode was fine, but it didn't leave me in a state of rapture like the really great episodes of Greek do.

Also, there was no Evan.

Highlights and observations:

• Casey: "She'll misinterpret things and think we're getting back together."
  Cappie: "Is that such a bad thing? It's what the people want!"
• Rusty: "Well, I either kissed a girl or gave a clown mouth-to-mouth."
• Dale: "Thanks for the heads up that Ashleigh was sleeping on the couch. I got up to get a drink of water and she saw my Full Monty in the fridge light."
• Dale: "Hi, Calvin. I'd stay and talk, but I'm making a dramatic exit."
• Calvin: "What's with the eyewear, Snooki?"
• Katherine: "I have taken a lover."
• Casey: "Wait, wait, you're sleeping with Beaver, and his name is Walter?!"
• Katherine's daughter's name is going to be Anastasia. :-)
• Ooh, Ash is in a saucy mood today.
• Prof. Simon's daughter (Hailey) is cute. Until she starts talking, that is...
• Calvin: "It's like watching bizarro Rusty."
• Calvin: "She handed you her virginity on a silver platter and you just sent it back to the kitchen."
• Awwwww, Beaver and Katherine :-) :-) :-)
• Katherine: "I think your exact wording was, 'Ok, you can have me now.'"
• Whoa, now Prof. Simon's daughter is talking about One Tree Hill. OTH is on everyone's lips this week.
• Is Ashleigh's "Pedro" Prof. Simon or Rusty? I feel like Prof. Simon is just a giant red herring here.
• Rusty: "Please have my wire. And be my soul mate."
• Cappie: "No, but she can't have gotten far."
  Casey: "Unless she's in the back of a van!"
• There had to be a safer way to get Hailey down from the rock climbing wall.
• Ashleigh: "No, no, I was just admiring this girl's hair. It's so soft."
• Ok, so Prof. Simon is maybe not a red herring? He wants to take Ashleigh to dinner, so we know he likes her anyway. Still not convinced he's "Pedro."
• Ok, I no longer care whether Cappie and Casey are together, apart, or whatever. What I adamantly care about is that Cappie NEEDS to get a HAIRCUT. Even if it's just a little trim. His hair looks bad. Bad, bad, bad.
• Casey: "Cappie and I got drunk, and, uh, studied."
• Cappie declared philosophy as his major! Oh, Cap, of all the majors to declare... Luckily he knows a really rich guy who offered to help him out in the post-college world.
• Cappie's taking a 10 a.m. class! And not even a Tuesday/Thursday class! It's a Monday/Wednesday/Friday class.
• Called it! Rusty is "Pedro." You cannot fool me, Greek! (cue evil laugh)
• Rusty: "Because you're a human magnet and people are drawn to you." (Aww, drunk Rusty is so sweet!)
• That was a pretty hot kiss there between Rusty and Ashleigh. The pieces for the Rusty/Ashleigh coupling are falling into place... Now all we need is for Rusty to remember it.
