Gossip Girl 5x21 Despicable B. Review.




Did you watch last episode of Gossip Girl? I was good, wasn’t it? If I have to sum up the plot in one sentence it would be: everyone got what they deserved. It’s right but let’s talk about it.
First of all we’ve got the Rhodes’ problem. A couple episodes ago Lola finally got to know his father who turn out to be Serena’s dad. At this episode Serena finds out that Lola isn’t her cousin but her half-sister. Then she told Lily who is planning a family dinner to show the press that her family is stronger than ever. Finally the dinner is meant to expose Carol’s fraud and send her to jail. Ivy, who has lost all the money from the heritage, help Lily on this.

Meanwhile Rufus and Lily aren’t in the best moment as a couple and the situation get worse when Lily lie him about the dinner and she doesn’t invite him. When Rufus  found out the truth they have a fight and the end on the brink of divorce.

On this episode we see Lily as a real Rhodes who punished those who try to break the family harmony. It not surprising that Rufus broke up with her.

Serena argue with her father because he spends more time with Lola than with her. Then Lola ask Serena for help to get Carol out of jail; but Serena is really upset about their whole father situation and she refuses to help Lola. At the end of the episode Lola finds a piece of paper with the password of Gossip Girl.



One the other side, Nate is looking into Diana’s past. But he discovers that Diana isn’t Chuck’s real mother. But the most interesting part of the episode comes when Chuck starts thinking that the problem isn’t who is his mother but that his uncle Jack might be his father.

Don’t forget about Dair! The story of Blair being outshone by his boyfriend returns. In order to get back at the top Blair sabotages an event in which Dan is honored. Then Dan shows her that she just has to back to being herself to return to the top. (Yeah! We need Queen  B).
I have to admit that Dan and Blair have good moments and they are a funny couple but everyone knows that Blair should be with Chuck.



This was the 21st episode of season 5 and it looks like everything is getting ready for the big finale. Will Chuck find out the truth about his family? What will happen with Serena and Lola? Will be Chuck and Blair back together?
Lots of questions. What do you think?

  1. Wow, Blair's Kanye West moment at the awards ceremony was a nice little icing on her low-brow cake. Would've loved if they would've had it been even slightly more obviously a Kanye-like but I think everyone got the idea...i laughed for sure while also cringing. A Kanye song at that moment would've just been the best but oh well...

    Still there was some great music in this episode, I love Sleigh Bells and it was awesome to hear "End of the Line" when Blair was trying to have FIT showcase her collection and then Dan asks her to be his date to the award ceremony.
