90210- Bride and Prejudice

"The fact is the only reason someone wouldn't tell you the truth is because the truth would destroy you."

There is a runaway bride on the loose!!! Rainstorms always create a more dramatic and intense moment in a T.V show and this weeks storm on 90210 did not dissapoint. The episode "Bride and Prejudice" challenged the characters into facing their deepest fears. It made them question if love was real and admit to the things that scared them. Even if the truth was brutal, it was necessary.


Naomi is no stranger to relationships. She switches boyfriends like she switches gloves, which makes it hard for us to believe that she even understands the concept of love. Yet, her engagement did come as quite the shocker, especially when she ignored the fact that P.J had to get married within two weeks or else he would loose all of his money. Normally, when one is presented with such evidence the answer becomes obvious, yet Naomi closed a blind eye because she was infatuated with the idea of love and marriage. Love is a tricky thing and marriages are scary, which is why they shouldn't be done rushed. Naomi should have taken an excerpt out of the Ivy and Raj book. Although their love story had a tragic ending, their marriage worked out because they loved each other. Naomi's love story would be tragic because she would have everything in the world but she would be alone. In order to test P.J's faith she could have postponed the wedding and had a longer engagement. If he didn't agree to her terms than she would know that the only reason he was with her is to get his money.




Watching Ivy deal with Raj's death is tragic, but it also seems rather ignorant of her that she would be so reckless with her life. After realizing how precious and short life is, she shouldn't be doing things that could potentially hurt her. Seems she missed the whole lesson of life that Raj tried to teach her. Although the story with Caleb is twisted (because he's a priest and he's trying to mack on Annie), he did do one thing right and thats protect Ivy from possibly hurting herself. Is he doing the right thing with Annie? Maybe, maybe not. Thats the tricky thing with religion. You might have a calling and you might be so passionate about your beliefs and what you do, but what happens when you fall in love? Now that the option has presented itself, do you guys think that Caleb will resign from priesthood and embrace the feelings he has for Annie. This could be a potentially dangerous decision because relationships can be short term and than he gave up his dream for a fling. Plus, we aren't 100% sure if Annie is over Liam and we won't know until she finds out that Silver has been secretly hooking up with him.

Which brings me the next topic. If Silver really loved Navid the way she claims to, than she would have told him the truth about Liam. As convinced as she was that their hook up was just a one time thing, she knows that its not true. Navid is the perfect guy and he's always going to be the right guy; the one she ends up with in the end. But Liam is that guy that challenges her. Once again, we can refrence this back to The Vampire Diaries and the Stefan, Elena and Damon triangle because it is so dead on. The thing is that Silver needs to choose between love and lust. If there is an option B, than she should go with that cause there would never be and option B if she was satisfied with option A.Liam was an asshole for trying to tell Navid to go back to college and than kissing Silver after he heard Navid confess his love to her but Silver should not think that the "I have the cancer gene" line is an excuse to keep Navid in the dark. Moral of the story is that no matter who ends up with who, the truth is the key to everything, no matter who gets hurt by it. The truth might hurt Navid, but it'll also hurt Annie (see paragraph above).


Seeing Ade take her music career back after Dixon left her for his was inspiring, but could it be the beginning of a new relationship? The writers sent us mixed messages as they let us believe that Ade and Austin might be teaming up personally and professional, but than they let Austin and Naomi talk privately which led to Naomi ending her engagement. The question is did she end it because she wasn't sure if P.J was the right guy or did she end it because the possibility of her and Austin still exists? I have a simple solution for everyone on this show; stop intermingling and hooking up with everyones ex's!
