I looooved the fact that we got a shirtless scene! And lots of nice James/Clay interaction. <3
The NH foot massage and taking Jamie to the river court were precious.


I hope the stupid girl and picture story line doesn't last long.

Not too bad for a premiere! It was a little dry, but I thought they did a good job establishing the new characters and showing where each character was at in their lives. I love the Clay/Nathan dynamic. They seem to really click and have a nice ease with one another. I really hope Nathan/Quinn have more scenes with one another. I can see them talking about sports. I like how he called her hot. Yes, she is!

And on a shallow note, I loved the shirtless scene of Nathan. Wowza. LOL.

NH(J) were lovely as always! The foot massage scene was all kinds of adorable as well as when Haley plops down next to him. The NJ RC scene was sweet as well.

And now, the shiz is about to hit the fan. Oy, I hope that woman goes away soon.

I thought it was a bit dry too, but I can see that they are setting ish up for the rest of the season, which means the season is actually heading somewhere, which makes me four kinds of excited. Hee.

Seeing NHJ this happy is this eppy makes me hope that we see more cutesy family stuff between them, although I won't lie that I'm a little excited about the potential of this groupie storyline, just because I want something more interesting than last season for NH, but I am trying to be careful what I wish for. Definitely. But already, I think this storyline is bringing out the good in James with his WTFness at the end. So I'm excited to see how he will portray the rest of the storyline.

And James in shirtless and in jeans pretty much made my night. And! The looking down-ness when Jamie opened up Lucas and Peyton's present.

chase the memories

Down-ness.

Agreed with you, although I'm still wary of the storyline. Hopefully the writers portray it correctly.

They probably won't, but you never know.

Totally a word!

And I heart your new icon. Much! That scene reminded me of that one in S4 when he was giving her a foot massage.
