4.13 Hook, Line, and Hayley

In what world is this an appropriate title for this episode? Join us for this, and other deep questions as we are firmly entering the middle of season four.

Hayley is gone, Alison is now a formerly blinded alcoholic widow with presumably no place to live, Billy is about to be a daddy and Brooke is furious and an adult orphan.

Amanda and Peter continue to progress, but Amanda is daydreaming about Bobby Kennedy. Which, aren't we all, as long as we're referring to Bobby Kennedy Sr.?

Kimberly is going to become a shrink. We begin the discussion aghast at that turn of events, but ultimately, acknowledge the restraint the writers of Melrose Place had in waiting until episode 13. Also, Kimberly, who would of course be on a first name basis with the LA PD, is able to bring in a tied up gentleman, with a confession, and the police just take him in?

Jo continues to get more suspicious of the game Jane is playing, but Richard reveals that he plans to dissolve the corporation. Meanwhile, literally no element of this love quadrangle is believable. Michael and Jane? Nope. Jo and Richard? Nop. Jane and Richard? Nah. Who else? I don't know - it just Michael and Sydney that make sense, even though Sydney is now suspicious of Jane's intentions.

This show, y'all, is something else.
