Revenge- Doubt

"Your just another puppet in the Grayson family play and it's time for your exit"

Revenge returned last night and it didn't take long for the drama to unfold. What's so amazing about this show is the amount of power that Emily Thorne holds. With just one slick and discrete move, she has everyone turning against each other and she knows exactly the outcome of everything she does. She knew getting Treadwell would eventually lead him to turning his back on Victoria once she made him believe that it was Vic that burned his house down and stole all of his tapes. I mean she had to do something fast. Victoria has no trouble placing the blame on innocent people. If she couldn't find Amanda, she was going to make Jack look guilty and that's one thing Emily would not allow. Which makes me wonder, where does Emily's heart really lie?? She said that things got so messed up because emotions got in the way so that means she obviously fell for Daniel right?? But she still cares for Jack deeply, so when it comes down to it, which one will she fight for??


The most gruesome thing is seeing  a rich pretty boy go to jail and than watching him get the lights beaten out of him. But interestingly enough he didn't get attacked because he was Daniel Grayson, he got attacked because his mother ordered it. She made her son go through so much pain in order to get him on house arrest so she could keep him close and probably manipulate him. And than she did what she does best, she planted an idea in his mind that made him suspicious that Emily Thorne might have been the one that murdered on the beach that night. We know that his love for Emily would never let him believe that, but that little piece of doubt is enough to make someone turn on the person they love. Like Emily said, doubt is a disease and it infects the mind. I'll admit it Victoria isn't as dumb as she looks, but unfortunately Emily is always one step ahead of her. In this game Emily will always win. You know why? Because Emily is powered by revenge; and revenge can go a long way.


Who is this new guy that Victoria is canoodling with and why are we suddenly being thrown into a world where were suppose to know him? Not only is this going to be mayhem for her when it gets out but it makes me wonder how many guys was she so manly and uncontrollably in love with???? This guy was clearly in her life before she fell in love with David Clarke, but why is he back now? And why are her emotions still so strong for someone who clearly is not about money and doesn't have much of it? Something seems really fishy about the timing of this mans reappearance in her life. Plus once the guy that was beat up wakes up, Victoria will be paying a high price for Emily's actions. Will she figure out it was Emily or will Emily blackmail her before she even gets a chance to realize it what happened? What is Emily's goal in all of this?? Other than to get revenge on a man who hurt the two guys that are most important to her, does she want to make Daniel hate his mother? She recorded the part when he admitted that Victoria asked him to have her son beat up. Its becoming unclear as to whose side Emily is really on. I actually don't think she even knows anymore. But by saving Jack and Amanda, she has made it that for now, Daniel is the only suspect in the case and in order to save her from his mothers craziness he is willing to accept full blame. I cannot wait to see what happens when Takeda gets wind of Emily's plan and lets Amanda resurface!!! Let the drama unveil. 


It is really unfortunate so see the innocent get sucked into this absolute mess. Poor Charlotte has turned to drugs to numb the pain of being a terrorists daughter and an arsonists sister. Not to mention her mother is sort of a (insert own judgement here.) What she doesn't understand is that Declan only did what he had to do to save his brother, which is exactly what she would do for Daniel. Everyone in the show is just caught up in the wrong things at the wrong time. Will Charlotte really turn her back on Declan forever or will she crawl back to him in her loneliness. Despite everything, Declan has people around him that actually care. It sucks being in the Grayson family cause no one cares about anyone but themselves.

  1. Excellent review! I finally just caught up with this episode earlier today, after a long day at work with Dish and really can only say WOW! Revenge came back with a bang and if I didn’t love it before I definitely would now. I’m glad I didn’t go too long without realizing the show was back on because I would have been very disappointed if I missed an episode more! Luckily “Doubt” was available on dishonline.com for free, so I was able to catch up from there. I’m very excited to see how the rest of the season plays out because I agree that I don’t think Emily knows where she is going to go from here. The only part I didn’t necessarily like about the episode was with Victoria and her old flame. I could have done without seeing the multiple scenes of them rekindling, lol. Other than that, I enjoyed it very much and can’t wait to see what next week has in store!
