Ugh, why does nothing about the Chuck/Blair arc make sense? When did Blair see that Chuck had matured? When she overheard Raina dumping him for selling out Lily, similar to how he sold her out nearly a season ago? And it was really unsatisfying to see Blair kick Chuck to the curb in a way that doesn't really address the problems with how he's treated her. I think I should give up on ever seeing that moment though, sigh.
Blair and Dan continue to be totally adorable! I was hoping for more ambiguity about her feelings. It's definitely suspicious that she walked away "stunned" and then spent the week in bed, refusing to see Chuck, refusing to take Dan's call, but Leighton played it close to her chest. I can't tell, but it will be interesting to hear the interpretations both ways.
Charlie can stay, I guess. I'm curious about why she dropped out of college, why Carol was giving her and Dan the eye there at the end.
And Vanessa! They didn't even give her a relatable reason to snitch to Serena about what she overheard. Honestly, they just need to cut her loose at the end of this season, it's pretty clear they don't give a damn about her character anymore. Let Jessica do something else.
I think my favorite moment was Eric mocking Dan (and Dan smiling) that once he would have found Blair getting him included in the photoshoot to make him a more acceptable suitor repellant. But now he just finds it endearing because he liiiiiikes her, and it's too cute.
