3.09 "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?"



So many pivotal events that I must use the beautiful organizing device bullet points:

  • Nicole confronts Kyle about the kiss him and Jessi shared. Of course Jessi over hears. She later yells at Nicole for getting involved and trying to keep her and Kyle apart because she isn't as fragile as the fami ly seems to think
  • But throughout the whole episode Jessi feels excluded from the ongoing at Latnok and at home.
  • Lori and Declan do some re-c on for Kyle with their new relationships, that just so happen to be connected to Latnok.
  • Josh plans a special night for him and Andy. A Star Trek night that ends with no moopiness on the Josh's part nor does Andy reveal that it is actually their last night together. But Andy does do something that we all should do more often...she says Thank You. She tells him she appreciates him for being able to accept the untraditional girlfriend that she is. For the sake of the night Jo sh wears Volcon ears and it gets a bit product placementy, because earlier Josh and the Dad are explaining Star Trek to Kyle and h ow he can relate to Spok. Although I am excited to see that movie.

  • So Cassidy gets Kyle and Nathaniel to work together and everything goes well. Amanda appreciates the effort shown by both her "men" And later that evening whilst with Nate Zzyzx and the XY.
  • Kyle sets up an evening dinner with Cassidy and his parents as a way to find out more about his boss--but as always Jessi intrudes! And things take an ugly turn.
  • She pushes Cassidy as much as she can but ends up the one with paint on her face--so to speak. Cassidy uses the excuse of protecting Kyle because is so special and kind as a reason to reveal what really happened to that hunter that night in the woods. The fact that Jessi killed a guy within her first hour of life causes a serious fear and pain in the Trager household and in Kyle. So she runs off and Kyle is left in shock, but keeping his goal in mind he makes plans to meet with Cassidy later that night.
  • At the Rack Cassidy is surprised to find Jessi, who is filled with rage and seeking revenge. She turns her powers against him to constrict his blood vessels to gain the truth about what happened to Sarah. When Kyle comes in he attempts to calm Jessi down and stop her from killing Cassidy--which seems to be what's really on her mind. In the process they learn that Zzyzx has started up again and that Sarah attempted to get in the way. Finally when Kyle sees that Jessi is stopping her attack on Cassidy once she's gotten her information and isn't listening to his pleas he sends her flying across the room!
  • With that much force she ends up unconcious, with the presecence of a heartbeat....
  • How did Kyle go from sharing a kiss with this girl to KILLING her, with his actions!
  • We all know that Kyle didn't mean to harm or even kill her, but after he attempts to bring her back to life with an electric shock he is forced to flee the scene with some prodding from Cassidy.
  • Then Foss appears! Wha? Nani? OK, so Foss appears and wakes Jessi--it was all an elaborate plan to get Kyle an in with Cassidy and really is there any better in than saving someone's life?
  • Its amazing how far Kyle will go to protect his family. I never saw him as a mastermind and liar but throughout the whole episode I kept thinking, boy Kyle has really gotten good at lying when necessary. And that's what really went on, because Kyle is one of the most honest characters you'll find on television
  • It turns out everything--and I mean everything was a part of the plan. Kyle knew about her acting out of self defense, that night in the woods. He was understanding and fully supportive, because that's what Kyle is: honest and understanding. A true friend.
With all the crazy rouse and awesomeness of that episode I am really excited but sad about tonight's epi....
Is this really the end for Kyle, I don't know that I can handle the hole that this show will leave behind. Tonight's epi airs at 9 and again on Wed at 12 am, so don't forget to watch "Bringing Down House"

I have a feeling there will be a ton of adventure and closing up of things. My prediction is that Kyle is going to end the science project that started with him.

I also am still torned about who he should be with!? Amanda? Jessi?
