Are we sure this wasn’t Army of Me Part 2? This episode was interesting because it basically “resolved” everything that happened last episode: Dallas getting angry about racism, Clare and Drew falling deeper in like, and Tristan being preyed upon by Grant. I say “resolved” in air quotes because in wrapping up the issues from last week it was really just creating an official start to a few relationships. Well, I hope Tristan realizes soon that the Grant thing is more of a pedophile situation than an actual relationship, but otherwise, yeah.
Umm… so Clare and Drew. Let’s start there. I’m fine with the idea of Clare and Drew. I already mentioned last week that I think Drew has matured a lot in the past few years. He’s way more responsible than he used to be and hasn’t cheated on anyone in the longest. So I don’t think Clare needs to be weary of him. Also, they seem pretty decent together if you ask me. Yeah, Clare is into writing and Drew is more… what… athletic? But they’re both into student council and it just seems like they get each other. You don’t need to have everything in common to be a good match. Clare and Eli might even be too similar. Maybe Drew will get Clare to be a little more care-free and Clare will get Drew into some cool literature.
