TWISTED: Danny Indemnity (Season 1, Episode 15)

Karen find out that Vikram is dead.

In this episode, Vikram's father is finally found. Jo and Danny go into the woods to the place his body landed when he fell of the cliff only to find that he isn't there. They expect the police to be showing up and they decided to tell the truth but the police never come. Danny heads home to tell his mom that he knows Vikram is dead but Chief Masterson. That's when both Danny and Karen find out that Vikram's body was discovered in a car accident. Danny is just as surprised as his mother to find out that piece of information.

When Jo gets home she asks her mom to tell her why Chief Masterson wants her to go down to the station and make a statement. Her mom tells her not to worry about it and defends Vikram. That's when Jo finds out that Vikram died from a car accident where he had been drinking — or at least it had been set up to look that way.

Karen Desai seems just a bit to eager to have the case of her husbands second death wrapped up as quickly as possible. Could that be because of all the bad hes done or because of all the good that will in his death? At the police station, she tells Danny that his father had a $10 million dollar life insurance policy and they were going to be set for life because of it.

Danny and Jo meet to discuss the odd turn of events. Danny tells Jo about the insurance policy and says he is glad that he didn't come forward about his dad's death because people would have thought he did it for the money.They begin to believe that whoever moved the body is trying to protect them. Jo thinks its her mom because of the conversation she overheard where her dad asked her mom to come down to the station. Danny thinks its his mom because she would do anything to keep him safe. Finally, they think about the possibility of someone not wanting to help them. They come up with the idea that someone may be blackmailing them and decide that they have to find this person.

Jo runs into rico and Andie at the diner.

Later, Jo runs into Rico and Andie at the diner and they start talking about the amazing night they had after a great homecoming dance. Jo seemed just a tad bit jealous. Could that be because she misses her best friend or is she realizing that she liked Rico more than she thought? Bus she forgets about all that when she bumps into Charlie on her way out of the diner and they have a short flirty exchange. Jo takes the coffee she ordered to her dad and finds out that they've already released Vikram's body for burial. Jo does a little digging by asking her dad if he thinks there was foul play involved. He says he's not sure but she doesn't have any evidence that there was any. Jo goes on to ask her dad about the conversation he had with her mom about giving the report. He won't tell her what happens because he feels she should hear it straight from her mom.

Next, we see Tess sitting with Karen having told her that she knew Vikram was alive. Tess apologizes profusely but Karen is very upset. She accuses Tess of sleeping with Vikram and threatens to call the cops after when she denies it. Karen's so mad that she throws the casserole Tess brought over out the front door just a little too soon after Tess walked out of it.

There's a great scene shift as the glass container that the casserole was in shatters when it hits the pavement and turns into the dirt being thrown over Vikram's casket. Danny is at the cemetery with Lacey reflecting on the fact that he's lost his father twice in six months. Lacey tries to cheer him up and tells him that he should come out about not killing his aunt. Of course, Danny disagrees saying that he's already kept the secret this long so why change that now.

Next, we see Jo talking to her mom about the situation of the police report again. This time, she insists that he mother answers the question. But Job isn't too happy with the answer. She finds out that her mom knew about that Vikram was alive through all the time Danny was running for the cops for having allegedly killed Reginia. She's immediately devastated and starts arguing with her mom. During this time, Karen reveals that she owed Vikram because he helped her during a hard time in her life.

Back at the Desai house, Danny tries to convince his mom that Vikram manipulated Tess into helping him. She doesn't really go for it and Jack helps to change the subject. The insurance agent rings the door bell and asks for Mrs. Desai and Daniel. That's when they found out that Vikram changed the policy without Karen knowing. Vikram left the money in a trust in Danny's name with Karen as the custodian.

According to the policy, Karen can't do anything with the money unless its for Danny's welfare or she gets permission from him. Danny feels uncomfortable with this and tells his mother that she doesn't have to ask him to spend the money because it belongs to both of them. Lacey warns Danny that he's going to get a whole new group of "friends" at school once they find out what happened. And of course, that's exactly what happens. Danny gets fed up with hearing all this talk about money especially when Andie pushes the fact that he should be using his money for good and helping with the charity event Jo's mom is putting on. He agrees and devotes to buying 6 ticketat $500 dollars each.


Chief Masterson is at the salvage yard getting ready to sign off Vikram;s car for demolition but noticed that the window was down when he crashed on a night that was about 30 degrees. This makes him suspicious and he decided to hold of on demo-ing the car.

Danny come home to find that his mom went on the ultimate shopping spree. Most of the stuff is for him but there's a diamond bracelet that she bought for herself as well. dAnny is a little taken aback by the fact they that got all this stuff just because his father died. Karen gets a bit angry and tells him the man he thought he knew never existed. Karen seems to be very bitter about he deceased husband. A huge turn of events especially since she wasn't willing to deface her marriage when she thought he was alive.

At the charity event, Danny pulls Jo aside and tells her that he thinks his mom is responsible for Vikram's body being moved. He says that she might have gotten Jack to help since she wouldn't be able to lift the body herself (personally, I think Jack is the one who did it but not with Karen's knowledge).  His reasoning is his belief that she's a bit too happy to have this insurance money. He thinks she is protecting him from himself but Jo isn't so sure. Regardless, she believes that their secret is safe if this is the case.

Danny goes back into the event and bids $10,000 on a painting knowing that his mom wouldn't be pleased about it but also can't really do much about it. He seems to be trying to get under her skin to see if she will crack, especially when it comes to this money.

As always, Charlie is the one to bring Jo out of her thoughts and into the positivities of life after the event ends. They bond over the fact that they both have secrets that stem from what they thought was doing the right thing. Charlie convinces her to do something spontaneous by having a skipping rock contest with him at the lake. She agrees and makes him promise not to cry when she beats him.

Andie is raving about the gift that Danny gave while Rico is walking her home. Ric tries to point out all of the things that he did during the auction  and then hands her an envelope with $53 which is all he could scrounge up at such short notice. Andie becomes over run with emotion and kisses him.

While Lacey and Danny are walking home, she finally points out that he hasn't been himself over the last few days. She tells him that he needs to talk to someone about what's going on with him and instead of telling her what's happened, he walks off (probably the worse thing he could do in that situation). He heads over to the diner to talk to Jo but when he gets there, he sees her with Charlie and decides not to go in.

Chief Masterson and Karen get into an argument over the whole Vikram thing when she gets home from the charity event. Finally, Karen says that she owes Vikram everything that she has with her husband. He's a bit confused and asks why. she goes on to explain that she had gotten pregnant while they were apart before they got married and she put the baby up for adoption. Vikram was there for her during that time and kept her secret till his death. She was afraid to tell her husband once they got back together because se thought he wouldn't love him.

Danny asks his mom about her involvement
in covering up Vikram's murder. 

Cliff hanger: When Danny gets home, he walks straight up to his mom and tells her that he knows she arranged his dad's 'little accident'. "You know, you know I killed dad," he says to Karen before the screen goes black.

GLEE: Trio (Season 5, Episode 10)

 This episode of Glee was all about the Trios (interesting progression from the duos in the Frenemies episode) In edition to some more great covers of the most famous trips song, this episode included: love, friendship and plenty of conflict (much like every other Glee episode). Here's the breakdown:

 Will and Emma: The episode starts with Will and Emma running out of their classrooms and into the Faculty Bathroom. By the way they're squealing running down the hall, it's pretty clear they're going to do something naughty. Unfortunately, they forgot to lock the bathroom door and Becky walks in on them after hearing some noises. Next, we see Will and Emma sitting in Sue's office like a couple of delinquent teens. They apologize for the mishap and go on to explain that they are trying to conceive a child. Much to their disappointment, their bathroom escapade didn't make that dream a reality. While sitting in the lunchroom, Will is talking to Shannon Beiste (the football coach) about wanting to have children and Sue joins in the conversation. They both explain to him that if he wants this to happen he's going to have to get his already worrisome wife to relax. So, he goes home and begins to convert their craft room inot a nursery. Emma comes in and says its bad luck to do that before the baby comes but Will tells her not to worry. During a glorious rendition of "Danny's Song" they get ready for the love making. Later in the episode, Will is packing for Nationals and tells Emma she should start too but she says she's not going to go. Confused, Will asks her why she would want to miss an opportune baby making time. And she says because they've already made one (this is the part where we yell and scream in GLEE! -see what I did there *winky face*). This baby takes the Schuester family to three members (hence the trio).


Tina, Blaine and Sam: As they start to realize that their Senior year is coming to a close, this trio wants to live their last days to the fullest. They start by singing "Jumpin, Jumpin" (a song originally done by one of the greatest trios of all time — Destiny's Child). After the song, Tina breaks down crying because she once again realizes how fast her days of singing in the choir room are coming to an end. Sam and Blaine try to cheer her up and when Artie comes over to help they push him away (there goes that conflict!). Later Tina sees Blaine and Sam trying on their graduation gowns and looses it again. She complains that she won't see them again after they graduate (which isn't true according to recent Glee history). To cheer her up once again, Blaine suggests getting a senior lock-in approved by the SGA board as their last hurrah. The idea does get approved by SGA but is shot down (along with all their hopes and dreams) by principal Sylvester. When she finds out, Tina falls on the floor, curls in a ball and laments over the event that was planned less than 24-hours ago that she has lost forever. To cheer her up this time, Blaine and Sam decided to have their own unsanctioned lock-in with just their trio. They climb into the choir room window that night and have a great time running through he halls singing "Don't You (Forget About Me)" in cheerleading attire (Sam disturbingly in a girl's uniform). That is until Becky shows up and turns their trio into a quartet without giving them much of a choice. After playing Twister and getting hyped up on energy drinks with Becky, Blaine realizes that Sam and Tina have been gone for a while. He travels down the halls to find them and discovers them making out in a classroom. He runs down the halls in disgust, unwilling to talk to either of them. The next day in school, Sam and Tina apologize to Blaine saying that they just needed to get it out of their system. He eventually accepts the apology and they invite Artie to sing "Hold On" with them for one of their last performances in the choir room. 

Rachel, Elliott and Santana: Here's where the majority of that conflict comes in. At the end of the last episode, we saw Rachel move out of the apartment was sharing with Kurt and Santana when Santana got the role for her understudy in Funny Girl. Well, Rachel moved in with Elliott (also known as Starchild). She begins using him as her personal gay assistant or "best gay" as she puts it. He gives up his bed so she can be comfortable, delivers her tea and her dry cleaning. Although she';s clearly using him, he joins her in singing"Barracuda" (could this be the start of a friendship between the two?) Later, Elliott goes to Rachel's old apartment to fetch something for her and runs into Santana who decides to pay him to help her with things. They try to settle these disputes at the Spotlight Dinner where the song "Gloria" has been requested. As both Rachel and Santana push their way into the spotlight and try to win Elliott's friendship, they end up pushing him just a bit too far. He decides to drop out of the band for as long as they're feuding. Later, after Rachel searches for her scented candle in what has become Santana's intimates drawer, the ladies have a moment where they realize that they don't really have anyone but each other in this big city. Unfortunately, this doesn't lead to the conflict resolution that they seem to be working towards throughout the scene. They end off the wallowing in their loneliness while singing "Hold On".


Kurt, Blaine and Elliott: So this is the only trip that actually has anything to do with singing. When Elliott decides to quit the band, Kurt decided that it would be better to work with Elliott and Dani than the frenemies Rachel and Santana. (He's been surprisingly calm throughout their entire ordeal even to the point of taking Rachel's personal attacks.) So he disbands "Pamela Lansbury" and creates "One Three Hill". They sing "The Happening" (By an even more famous trio — The Supremes) as their opening gig. Their voices blend surprisingly well together and they use their song selection to indirectly speak to Rachel and Santana as well. Lastly, they rehearse a new piece that Kurt has brought to the group which happens to be "Hold On" (the song that  everyone else in the show is singing at the same time).

I'm Sorry

I'm sorry....
I've really been slacking on my blogging job lately. I think I bit off more than I can chew trying to cover five different shows so I'm going to refocus my posts. Since I've only made posts about Twisted and Glee, I'll only post on those shows from now on. I'll catch up on the last three episodes for each show (before Tuesday hopefully) so I can get back on tract.

My Favorite Reviewing Websites

As a consumer, I've read reviews for years now and that's helped me as I begin to review television shows for this blog. Reading reviews is a great way to know exactly what you're going to be getting into, whether it be in the industries of fashion, entertainment, or literature. While I don't have a favorite author or journalist who writes reviews, I do have a few favorite websites. 

Here's my go to websites for reviews in literature, movies, television and broadway plays. 

Literature

Entertainment Weekly  keeps up with more of the young adult books that I never seem to get to old for. Here's a recent review about "The Invention of Wings."

New York Times is a bit more analytical about their books and I prefer to read more non-fiction book reviews on their website. Don't forget to check out the Best Seller list as well.

Movies

Rotten Tomatoes is a great place to connect to all of the reviews written by major papers in one place. For example, here's the review page for "The Monuments Men."

New York Times is also more analytical in talking about movies but that doesn't mean they can;t be whimsical. Here's a great review of the new Muppets movie.

Television

The Hollywood Reporter keeps up with everything in the entertainment realm. Their reviews are to the point and include valuable information. Here's one about a show I'm going to cover on this blog, Mixology. 

Broadway plays

Being from NYC, I like to keep up with all the happenings on and off Broadway. The New York Times is a great resource to do this. Here's a review about "50 Shades! The Musical", a parody that lightheartedly ridicules the 50 Shades series. 

TWISTED: Home Is Where The Hurt Is (Season 1, Episode 14)

Once again, Twisted 's murder mystery story line revolves around the constantly changing relationships. During this episode, we see that Lacey is finally willing to show her true emotions for Danny. She's convinced that she's going to get him to ask her to homecoming because  she believes there's nothing standing in the way of them being together anymore. Unfortunately, Danny isn't exactly on the same page because of his guilt of killing his father and keeping it a secret. Jo tells him to ask Lacey to prom but when Charlie confirms that he likes Lacey, Danny gives him the go ahead to ask her to homecoming.

Charlie's crush on Lacey that has been building in the last few episodes finally comes to a head when he asks Lacey to homecoming. Much to his dismay, she denies with the explanation that she's going with someone else. Charlie has a feeling its Danny and tells Lacey that Danny gave him permission to ask her. At this point Lacey is super confused and calls Danny to apologize for all the things she had done. By the end of what turns into an argument, Danny asks Lacey to homecoming.

Andie Dang

Rico is also trying to follow through on his crush by asking Jo to homecoming as 'friends'. Danny tells him to just go for it but before he can Jo tells him that she's signed them both up for homecoming committee. He gets excited because he thinks it confirms that Jo wants to be spending time with him. Andie, a cute mathematician that we've never seen before this episode clearly shows interest in Rico but he's too focused on Jo to pay her any attention. When Andie signs up for homecoming committee, Jo notices her crush and talks to her about it. Later, Jo tells Rico that she thinks he should be with someone who really likes him and pushes him to ask Andie to homecoming.

Danny and Lacey dance at homecoming.

At homecoming, the night seems to be going well for Danny & Lacey. Well, until Danny is elected prom King and almost uses the time for his speech as a reason to tell the secret of him killing his father. As Danny storms out of the school both Jo and Lace follow him. Once again, Lacey is confused and out the loop but this time she isn't willing to put any effort into trying to understand. Later in the show, Danny goes to Lacey's house to set things right. She doesn't really want to hear it but he kisses her and she melts in his arms.

Charlie approached Jo at the punch bowl

Rico and Andie had a great time. She even said he was "better looking than Leo" (DiCaprio!). Andie goes on to say that this is the happiest night for her life and Rico agrees. Across the room, Charlie has spotted Jo dressed to the nine's (thanks to her friend Lacey!). He approaches her with a corny line that isn't typical and introduces himself. He keeps his distance until the end of the night when she's helping to clean up. According to him, Jo doesn't smile enough and so he does a little dance to make her smile. It seems like this is the beginning of new romances for both Rico and Jo.

But the teenagers aren't the only ones who have love interests. Danny walked in on his mom and Jack (his father's old friend) kissing. Danny handles the experience gracefully an later reminds his mom that she deserves to be happy. Danny goes to Jack's house to ask for some insight about his father and ends up asking him to help him fix the car in his garage. It seems like he does this so that his mother will have an excuse for Jack being around. While fixing the car Jack takes on some fatherly duties and gives Danny advice about Lacey. It's during this scene that we learn that Vikram's life insurance policy is worth $10 million. (Would Danny have felt any differently about killing him if he knew that?)

Jack Taylor and Karen Desai

Not only are there romantic relationships going on but there are also some friendships are seeing develop and grow. The first is with Jo and Lacey. They've finally put aside all their differences and are becoming friends again. Jo even says it while her and Lacey are getting ready for homecoming together. She says, "This is what it would have been like, if everything hadn't happened." We also learn that Charlie and Danny have a history. This episode was the first time that Danny actually saw Charlie and it seemed like something bad had happened between them. But as the show goes on, we see that they were cell mates in juvi and apparently, Danny helped Charlie keep a secret. Now that Danny's back at school, he and Charlie are bonding over their past experience, being the new kid and playing soccer.

Throughout the episode, Chief Masterson is continuing the search for Vikram. But he decided to take a moment of rest so that he could spend time with his wife, Tess. While at the table he gets a call from his debut sheriff about a voice mail left on Vikram's phone. Much to his surprise, its his own wife's voice. They get it into a huge argument about why she was lying to him and none of her excuses helped. Later at the house, he comes storming in saying that she's going to give a complete statement the next morning. Minutes later, he gets a call that Vikram is dead and Tess is just as surprised as he is.

The cliffhanger: The police force finally found Vikram's body. Does that mean Danny's secret is going to come out soon? Oh, and we still don;t know who that mystery man is!

GLEE: Frenemies (Season 5, Episode 9)

Glee's first episode back since the winter break was centered around Artie & Tina, Rachel & Santana, and Kurt & Elliot. Each pair's friendships were put to the test for different reasons. I've decided to chronicle the episode by focusing on each pair separately. Also, check out the end of the post for the awesome music that was included in this episode!

Artie and Tina during their
sing-off performance of "My Lovin'"

Artie and Tina: The episode begins with Artie and Tina eating their weekly Tuesday lunch in McKinley's auditorium. Artie says that he's going to miss these lunches with his friend when he's at film school in Brooklyn and she's a Brown University. Tina admits to him that she's gotten waitlisted. Artie tries to cheer her up, deeming each other lunches until graduation as encouragement lunches and begins singing 'Whenever I Call You Friend'. Later, both Artie and Tina are called into Principal Sylvester's office. There they are told that they are tied for valedictorian because they both have perfect attendance, the same GPA and the same extracurricular activities. Because their can only be one valedictorian,  Principal Sylvester tells them that they will have their valedictorian speeches judged by a panel to decide who will have the prestigious position. Once they leave the office, Tina tells Artie that he should take the loss for her because being valedictorian will help her get into Brown but Artie isn't willing to. In the choir room, they continue their feud by competing in a sing-off to decided who will have a solo at nationals. While they're singing 'My Lovin', Tina accidentally pushes Artie's wheelchair over causing him to fall out of it. When it's time for them to present their valedictorian speeches, they both proclaim that the other person should be the valedictorian. During the speeches there is a scene step-back that shows Tina apologizing to Artie for her behavior in the choir room and them making up. In the end, they are able to keep their friendship in tack but Blaine is given the position of valedictorian. He decides that he's going to sing a song instead of giving a speech and he wants them to sing with him because he knows how much they both wanted to be valedictorian. At the end of the show,  the three of them sing 'Breakaway' together and we can assume that that is the song they have chosen to sing for graduation.

Rachel and Santana singing 'Brave' during a photoshoot
 for New York Magazine.

Rachel and Santana: The first time we see these two, Santana is opening  up to Rachel about her feelings of insignificance while serving rude customers at the Spotlight Diner. Santana applauds Rachel on being a true friend despite all of the horrible things she said and did to her in high school. Rachel invites Santana to work as a model for the photoshoot she will be in for the cover of New York Magazine and Santana gladly accepts. During the photoshoot, Santana has what we later find out is a fantasy scene where she and Rachel sing 'Brave'. It's possible that she was day dreaming about this because she was willing herself to be brave enough to do something that would make her famous in New York. Later, Rachel  tells kurt that she can't rehearse that night because she has to sit through the auditions for her understudy. Santana uses Rachel's absence from the rehearsal as her excuse to get out of it as well/ Looking back on it, it seems that she had already premeditated her next step and that's why she couldn't be at rehearsal. During the auditions for Rachel's understudy, the director calls out Santana's name. Santana gives an amazing performance of 'Don't Rain On my Parade' while leaving Rachel flabbergasted. When they get back to the apartment, Rachel immediately demands answers from Santana about why she audition for the understudy position without telling her. Santana's defense is that she knew Rachel was going to react this way and decided to do it after the audition so she couldn't stop her. The fight heats up and eventually leads to Rachel slapping Santana right before she gets the call that she's got the part. They continue to bicker by singing 'Every Breath You Take' during rehearsal after being told that they have to play nice with each other if they expect to get famous. Back at the apartment, Rachel and Santana face off and put Kurt in the middle by making him determine who should leave. In the end, Rachel decided to move out but not before telling Santana that they "were never and will never be friends." Throughout the episode its hard not to believe that Santana is just being the same conniving person she was in high school. Did Rachel's impending fame get to be too much for her? Did she pick the fight on purpose? Where they ever truly friends?

Kurt and Elliott make-up after a long day of opening up
and getting to know each other.

Kurt and Elliott: The first time we see Kurt in this episode, he's on the phone complaining to Blaine about how Elliot is trying to take over his band. Blaine tells him to 'keep his friends close and his enemies closer. When both girls can;t come to rehearsal, Kurt uses that opportunity to spend the day with Elliott to get a feel for his true intentions. While learning about Elliott's musical background, Kurt learn's that he plays guitar and asks Elliott to teach him. They go to a guitar store and impromptly perform 'I believe In A Thing Called Love'. Kurt lets down his guard a bit and enjoys the time spent with Elliott. Finally, Elliot opens up and tells Kurt that he knows Kurt thinks he;s trying to take over the group. Elliott reassures him that he's just happy to be a part of the band. He says he's really glad he met Kurt and they take a picture to commemorate the moment in their new found friendship (see gif above). Elliott  kisses Kurt on the cheek for the picture and Kurt squeals about how cute it is. Back at McKinley High, Becky asks Blaine, in her crude sarcastic way, if he had broken up with Kurt. Of course, Blaine replies "no" and Becky shows him the picture, stating, "your fiance is getting some a**." This could certainly put a damper on Kurt's relationship with Blaine and friendship with Elliott in the future .
