"It takes a special level of crazy to go to those extents to keep your secret."
What none of us saw coming was the epic jaw dropper at the end. Bart Bass is alive. After all the torture that Chuck put himself through after his fathers death. All the time he spent looking for Elizabeth. All the lies and all the deception. Although his attempt at finding out if Jack was his father, or if Elizabeth was his mother, he found out something much more scandalous. You know what they say, don't go looking for things you don't want to find. Yet, as with every revelation we begin to ask questions. Why did Bart Bass fake his own death? Why did he lie to his son? Why is Diana Payne in all of the Bass family secrets?? Why did she lie and pretend to be Chuck's mother? What was the boat coming for? What the hell is going on. And all of this to happen at one of the most convenient places for the Bass family; a sex house.
I cannot help but smile at the fact that slowly and surely Blair and Chuck are going back to each other. They have this magnetic field that pulls them together no matter how hard they pull apart. Thats not too say that it wasn't heartwarming to watch lonely boy pull his hair out at the sight of Queen B and Chuck together. Dan loves her, its a fact, but theres something about the chemistry between Blair and Chuck that has been missing for awhile. Even in the given circumstances Blair sticks by Chuck's side and is there for him when he needs it most. Chair fans were even in for a treat with some kinky jokes between the couple. Truthfully, Dan kind of screwed himself over by rejecting the offer to Italy. His love for Blair, who unfortunately didn't say I love you back, has been taken to a whole new level. It is a possibility that by leaving for the summer he risks loosing Blair to Chuck, but whats meant to be will be, that's definitely no reason to jeopardize ones future.
Saving team Serena was also something that had to be done. In the past episodes Serena has kind of become the ugly duck that isolated herself from everyone. It even went as far as almost betraying her friends because of the obsession she has with Gossip Girl. It probably isn't a pleasant feeling getting tricked by your half sister and ex-bf (who is dating your newly acquired half-sis) but they really saved her from herself. Order has been restored on the Upper East Side and truthfully speaking, Serena just didn't do the sight justice. But I bet that Nate and Lola will bite themselves in the tongue when news of Bart's resurrection gets out and they won't be able to prevent Gossip Girl from spilling the beans. Another thing to consider, before outing Diana Payne as the organizer of a brothel, Nate might want to check with Chuck if running the story is ok. A lot of press might not be too good around such a big secret.
After all is said and done, many props have to be given to Dorota. As a character who is seen briefly on each episode she always has the wittiest lines and is a pro at executing missions for Blair. Whether its getting locked in a closet on Blairs wedding, her brilliant massage therapy session with Diana or giving Serena advice to go to Best Buy and get a new lap top, Dorota's character really doesn't get enough recognition. Only two more episodes till the season finale and there is a lot of explaining to be done!
