I don't like Bree being in her room for three days, the Creators tend to veer towards such hyberbolic off-stage situations though, at least I think they have in the past but it's hard to keep track anymore. This keeps with the semi-schizophrenic nature of the characters, as this doesn't seem like something Bree would do (nor anyone?) over the mere fact Daniel left. What I don't like is this is increasing anti-Daniel sentiment amongst phorumites for leaving Bree, while Jonas looks more and more like a hero. He wasn't the one sleeping with her on the streets for a week though people, come on. Things are just uncharacteristic all around, Daniel leaving so abruptly (they could have worked it to be more realistic, one second they're on a stakeout for Jonas, the next second Daniel, who had agreed to whatever the fans decided, is gone?), Bree spending days in her room and never emerging, etc. I just wish there was more consistency, the characters who know act like the characters we know. You really never know what these kids will do next, but not in a good way, in a way which borders on the ridiculous.
Kind of like if you lay a sandwich in front of someone. 9 times out of 10, they will either eat it, or perhaps lay it aside. However, the LG characters seem to permanently inhabit that 10th spot where there is always a good chance when they are given the sandwich they actually throw it against the wall, stomp up and down on it, and then start screaming bloody murder. It's not that that it was just unpredictable, it's just that it was so outlandish and random that there was no possible way of ever seeing that coming.

Gotta agree that Jonas seems a lot less twitchy and cocky in this one.

Wow...it must be working...whatever evil magic it is.
Joan-us is a tool - on many levels. The scary thing about pretty-boys is that everyone hates them until he latches on to the thing he knows will grab you. Then he uses it to manipulate and then destroy you. Think Ted Bundy here.
Yes, think Ted Bundy and his minions will wail and complain that you only hate him because he is so nice and you can't stand it. Meanwhile he let's go with a maniacle laugh and a wistful look as he ponders the image of Bree trapped in a room so hopelessly long she starts to obsess with revenge and working out to be ready when the time comes.
This is no time to lighten up on that guy. It is time for increased vigilence.
A couple of other thoughts
Does anyone else think that Joans' bookcase is a tresaure trove of information? A real crisp closeup of things would be very helpful. One thing's for sure. He as a lot of bowling trophies and those boxing gloves move around a lot!
and for a guy who once bragged about his film editing prwess, his vid's aore awful choppy

Hi Guys, As much as I like my new best friend, Jonas, I sure would feel better if we could see Bree. She is used to spending time alone in a room, but does she have books? Owen? P-Monkey? Chocolate chip cookies are no substitute for a good Lewis Thomas read. She's vlogged through thick and thin in the past, why not now? I won't completely trust Jonas until she's proved a little science wrong. FLWright |

+1 for Ted Bundy reference, SLainte! Nice analogy.

Silly coveites, Bree's not at Jonas' house. It's part of their uber secret plan to throw off the extremely menacing but even more ineffective Order. Bree is in Cancun, sipping margaritas.
Ok, I have no idea. But this throws a wrench in the whole "Jonas is evil" thing. Unless Jonas IS evil, and the Order is good.

I think Jonas has done as many evil things as the Order. I mean seriously, why even is she running from them. Am I missing the episode where DB caught Lucy eating kittens?

lol, lol! Challenge video time! This sounds like a job for the Simian Liberation Front!
Let's see some parody videos of the possible evil things Daniel could have caught Lucy doing:
tearing the tags off pillows
eating hot dogs with ketchup!
appearing on a John Edwards show
auditing each other using a tin-can e-meter
double parking
taking candy from a baby
complaining that the old Battlestar Galactica was somehow better than the current one
