We Couldn't Help But Wonder - A Journey Through Sex and the City

There is a lot to cover here.  Both Charlotte and Miranda have major news.  Miranda's development sends Carrie on a journey into her own past.  Meanwhile Samantha wants a really big, really expensive accessory and she drops her recent client's name (Lucy Liu) to get it.  Things are about to get very serious...

This episode can basically be summed up in one word, but we'll let you figure out what that word is.  Some get tugged, one almost gets purchased because one got removed, a doctor needs to check out what Trey's are making, both Samantha and Big prove they "have them."  It's balls, guys.  The word is balls.

Did you know that Aidan has a country house?  Well, he does and Carrie is expected to visit regularly.  When she brings Samantha along for company Samantha finds some company of her own.  Meanwhile Charlotte happens upon a startling scene at the MacDougal family country home, and Miranda makes Steve cry after hearing some startling news.  This episode ROCKS!  (kinda)

So this is a big one, and Big isn't even involved.  Miranda experiences a loss and the girls all deal with it in various ways.  Carrie recedes from Aidan, Charlotte buys fruit baskets and flowers, Samantha distracts herself in her usual way, Mike cries, and Elise has to take over the conversation a few times.  And yes, I just included Elise and I as part of "the girls."  Let's all breath and reboot.

Miranda and Charlotte have a phone confrontation about life choices, Samantha has a taxi cab confrontation and is told to deal with some waxing choices, and Carrie and Aiden have some passive aggressive confrontations all about one very Big choice from her past.  Hey!  I picked a theme and stuck with it!  I should write for this show...

This one is all about babies.  Charlotte and Trey are thinking about having one, Samantha is dating a guy who talks like one...  Okay, so that's really all the baby stuff there is, but I suppose you could say that Carrie is a infant when it comes to email, and Miranda...  No, I'm not going to try and think of a baby metaphor for Miranda's date.  Plus we have an awkward double date at Tortilla Flats!  (R.I.P.)

Miranda has a ghost!  Carrie has an ex!  Charlotte has a Mother in Law!  Samantha has a talkative girlfriend!  And I have no more exclamation points... Enjoy the show!  (Oh look, I had one more)

Carrie gets ‘played’ by her jazz musicain boyfriend while Charlotte and Trey play all over town.  Miranda eats a lot of cake and Samantha eats... well, you’ve seen the episode.  Mike actually remembers to do the DVD recap and Elise has a startling diagnosis for an old school musical theatre character.  Yep, we’ve got trouble.

For an episode Elise and Mike claim not to like very much a lot happens here.  Carrie, Samantha, and Miranda all meet potential new love interests, Charlotte tries to figure out what's going on with hers, but most importantly there are TWO different Michael John LaChiusa The Wild Party shout outs, along with a brief history of another short lived Broadway musical.  And don't get Mike started on meat crab...

Elise and Mike follow the ladies as they model, date guys from the gym, get nude photos taken, and take a good look at their... well, you'll see.
