There is the amazing Matthew Glave however to appreciate in this episode, and his portrayal of the super evil Jerry is a highlight. Sorry Julia, we loved you for the most part but now it’s just annoying. Then there is the return of Julia, which by now is just not warranted. Then there is the moment with Sean, which really starts to get a little bit too much given that once again Sean wants to give up on him, before ultimately wanting to do the opposite. The Matt storyline really takes a downward turn (which is hard to believe his life could get any worse) and it ultimately leads him to pulling a gun on Christian. How is an episode with so much heavy and deep stuff happening just so…boring? It really does sum up the first half of season six, just so much potential but so much blank space happening in what should be some shining moments. We’ll just forget this episode was actually written by Ryan Murphy okay?ĭownload recap 97. The titular character of Alexis Stone is a highlight however, with Nip/Tuck showing why it was such a forward thinking show when it came to issues around transgender characters. There is just so much over the top stuff happening it just doesn’t work, and the fact it is over two parts makes it stretched out and forced even more. There is also Matt in jail and his prison lover wanting him to get breast implants. Then there is the whole aspect of Erica being framed as a drug mule in her ‘epic’ send off moment from the series. That isn’t always necessarily a good thing however, as somehow she is involved in a weird pedophile storyline involving the always interesting Erica and her super creepy Italian lover Renaldo. Always a positive right? The poor forgotten child of Sean & Julia barely gets a storyline, and when she does it’s usually memorable for some reason or another. There is a pretty decent twist at the end of the episode involving tough as nails cop Kit (played by the amazing Rhona Mitra) being revealed as the Carver’s latest victim, but it is nowhere near close to saving this episode from being really bad.Īh an Annie episode. But because it is in such a poorly executed episode, the moment is completely lost in everything else that happens around it. Then there is the whole thing about Christian finally getting to meet his birth mother. And the episode that of all people, Sean actually believes he would be capable of murder. This is the episode in which we’re somehow meant to believe that Christian is capable of murder. The utter worst of the worst and the only truly horrible blip on an otherwise amazing show.Īnother season 3 episode, another episode that feels like it should be part of CSI. It’s one of many season 3 episodes that just simply don’t fit and shouldn’t exist. Where do we even begin with just how bad this episode is? Is it the over soppy dialogue? The fact this feels more like an over dramatic episode of CSI than of Nip/Tuck? The hammy acting? The ultimate randomness of a plane crash and having plastic surgeons needed to do more than plastic surgery? Or the fact that Julia literally ends up killing someone who she thinks is her mother which actually turns out not to be her mother? So far removed is this episode from the overall feel of the show that you can skip this episode during a re-watch and not miss out on a single thing story wise on the grand scheme of things.
