I dreamed a dream of Melrose Place.


Last night I dreamed that visiting L.A. from Western Mass, I met David and he totally became my boyfriend (with apologies to my real boyfriend, who would never wear that horrible weird vest thing over a t-shirt that David is rocking in the above photo), but we were having some issues because I wanted to do some "touristy" things around L.A. but he was stuck dealing with his crazy roommates (Lauren and also Serena from Gossip Girl). THEN people were protesting outside the window, and it turned out they were people from Western Mass protesting about how much L.A. sucks and how WMASS is so much better. So David went down there and they ended up knocking him over and sort of beating him up by rolling all over him weirdly. It was strange, but I think it showed me one thing, Melrose Place must be getting better, because my subconscious is still totally interested!

So what happened on the actual show you might ask? Well:

David and Lauren (Still no nooky there, because of her whoring) worked together to get Michael arrested for Sydney's murder. It certainly looks like he's the culprit at this point, but I am sure there could be a TWIST!! I am liking David and Lauren together by the way. Maybe he, of all people, can totally accept her hooker ways and they can make a real go of it!


Ella got Jonah a job as an IT guy at WPK, then promptly used him for her own means. But that backfired when he discovered that she hadn't fought for him to get the music video credit in some episode I didn't watch, and so he fired her as his agent, manager AND friend. Harsh dude.

Riley's on Jonah's list as well (as usual) because she stuck her nose in where it didn't belong and consequently a psycho dude broke Jonah's very expensive camera.

Riley really did not explain herself very well in this situation though. Instead of saying "I kind of got between Violet and her brother" she should have said "This crazy guy forced his way into our apartment and smashed your stuff!" Both are true, and that second one is sure to keep your fiance from being mad at you.

"What did Riley stick her nose into anyway?" You might be asking. Well, let me just tell you this, it is pretty epic. Get ready. Are you ready? Okay... Violet has a BROTHER/LOVER. Yup. That's right. She has an adopted brother who is also her lover. Eww. Also, he's a meth-head. This dude is going to be so pissed when he finds out about her Auggie obsession.

This Violet development also shows us that pretty much everything she has said so far to everyone has been true. (From Oregon, stole $ to run away from a messed up upbringing, was looking for her birth-mother for years.) So that is kind of an interesting development. The brother/lover did seem to mention that becoming lovers instead of siblings was her idea, but he also seemed crazy, so it is hard to take him at his word.


Amanda is on a search for some object that she gave Sydney that is very important to her. So important in fact, that even though she is a multimillionaire she is going to live in the apartment complex she lived in 10 years ago to intimidate it's residents into giving her information on said precious object. Poor Ella. No one wants to live that close to their crazy, evil boss.

Best line of the night: Michael, re: Amanda and Sydney becoming friends again "Did you see each other at a support group for women who faked their own deaths?"

Worst part of the episode (for those afraid of Brooke Burns only): Seeing Michael trying to get it on with his freaky-faced wife.

Next week:
WHOA! Jonah and Ella hooking up?! Jonah and Riley breaking up?! How did I suddenly become so interested in Jonah?!!!
