nicely said faith grows old.
ITA that it's cool to see other people's opinions. especially in a chill thread like the GREEK one. there are so many forums i've been in where different POVs get flamed so hard so it's refreshing to be in one that's so open.

Agreed. I've always felt that the GREEK fandom is very open, and takes things as they come on the show instead of violently reacting against it. One of the things that I love most about the show is it doesn't take itself too seriously and I think the community reflects that.
Myself, I liked both C/C and M/C, for different reasons. The C/C interaction in this episode was really charming, and I agree with whoever said they are realistic in that they have feelings about each other but different views, and still care about the other people they are with. It does seem very true to life, which is refreshing. Which is why C/C not being together doesn't make me angry or upset, because I know that they still care about each other, it's obvious in their interaction and those feelings are what is most important. I love that he helped her out with the IKI thing, and that whole scene was just brilliant with the KTs storming the party.
I thought that M/C was also very sweet in this episode. I think that they are realistic in a way too because, honestly, your college love isn't necessarily your be and end-all. It's someone you enjoy spending your time with at the moment and that's what M/C have. And although Max did make a big sacrifice for her, I think it was very genuine of him to ask Rusty not to tell her because he didn't want her to feel obliged to him. I liked that because I was worried that if she did know, she would feel obligated to stay that way but I think it speaks volumes for Max that he made the sacrifice and knows that it's not guaranteed they'll stay together just because he did it.
But my favorite relationship of the episode was Ashleigh/Casey! Their friendship is too cute for words. I felt kind of bad that they were both keeping stuff from each other but at the end I'm glad they both ended up coming clean and everything worked out. I'm definitely excited to see where this goes. Everyone is so very in character - Ashleigh, Rebecca, Frannie, etc... I'm loving it. Another thing in general about Greek that this episode reminded me is that Greek always has a consistent feel to it. Where as a lot of shows change after their first season and take a completely different tone that puts off fans because it's not the show they fell in love with, I feel like Greek has actually done a better job than most and has a natural progression.
