Revenge- Chaos

"Just promise me no secrets of any kind ever. You've seen what they've done to my family."

Finally a revelation we have been long anticipating. Tonights episode brought us back to the scene that enticed so many fans to indulge in Revenge. Thankfully Daniel survives through Tyler's manic episode and Emily Thorne has not gone to such extremes as killing her fiance for vengeance, just yet.  The question of whether Daniel will blamed for Tyler's death remains untouched, but my guess is that Emily will do everything in her will power for her fiance to be punished. This will be the perfect way for her to ruin the Grayson global name, while staying by her "fiances" side and ruining Victorias life. Win-win situation right? While Amanda is to blame for Tyler's death, she was really doing it in self defense. Jack wanted to cover for her but ultimately they both got away, leaving Daniel as the sole culprit. Although it would make a lot more sense in my mind if Daniel wasn't arrested for Tyler's death because it is clear that Tyler has a little loopy and a danger to society. Whatever the outcome may be this episode was a jumble full of chaos, which seems a fitting title for the episode itself.

Who would have thought that after everything Amanda would turn her back on Emily? You never make a deal with the devil and Tyler is the devil in this case. He's a psycho lunatic that cannot be constrained and knows more than is good for him. Amanda put her own safety at risk when she went into an agreement with Tyler. It was hard to back out after she realized Tyler's plans were actually to kill Daniel and frame Emily for it all because she killed the security guard. That key point had to have played a huge factor in Amanda changing her mind because if cops started investigating further they would realize that it was actually her that killed Frank. Although she dragged a little with getting to the party she did make it in time to stop Tyler's destructive plan. Truthfully, this girl owes Emily her life at this point. Emily is always cleaning up everyones mess. 

As Emily is usually the one calling all the shots, no pun intended, she was rather distant and missing from the scheming this weekend, which made this episode so brilliant. This weeks episode showed a girl that was stripped and bare and pretty vulnerable to anything surrounding her, especially since many of her accomplices turned her back on her. As much as Nolan wants the best for Amanda, I am left wondering what him and the Asian investor at Grayson Global had to do with the plot line. I know he is suppose to help Emily in any way possible so did Emily know that Daniel was going to get shot? What was in the box that she was burying? Why was the investor ready to help Amanda make an escape? 

Anyways, after a long anticipation we finally know that Daniel is not the one that dies in the pre-wedding celebrations but what's next? Does the happy couple continue with their wedding preparations, assuming that Daniel isn't arrested? Will Victoria become more loving towards Emily or will this tear the whole family apart? All the points that were brought up this week by the grandfather, for example Daniel taking over Grayson Global, a peaceful family settlement and Charlotte avoiding any type of therapy in order to keep the family name noble will have gone to hell because of this incident. Will they loose all their money? In all of this I know Emily was waiting to see the Grayson family self combust, but has she no care or interest in anything to do with the family. Can she really just wash her hands and walk away from everything? Will it be revealed that it was really Amanda who saved Daniel from a monster? One things for certain Jack isn't going anywhere and he, as well as Declan, are now more invested in the family than ever before.
