TV: Gossip Girl: Double Identity

Chuck Bass is back from the dead.

As viewers of this show might already know, CB has already changed his name to Henry Prince when he woke up after being treated of his bullet wound.

Fully intending to lead a new life under a new name, Chuck plans to leave France after seeing Blair and Serena on two separate occasions in France. Chuck, erm, Henry denied knowing Serena in front of Eva. S waits for CB to come out of his apartment and confronts him about going home to the Upper East Side. Chuck, in essence, tells Serena that there’s nothing left for him in NY and when he leaves town, Chuck will be gone forever.

In the meantime, Blair got Prince Charming to give her a second chance. They go on a wonderful date and Prince invites her to a ball to meet his parents. Prince sends her a couple of dresses to try and sends her to Harry Winston’s jewelry shop for some accessories. While there, Blair sees the perfect ring for her and then sees Serena. She confronts Serena about following her and then she discovers the story behind the ring, the one Chuck was supposed to give her. Serena pleads with Blair to talk to Chuck but Blair goes with Prince Charming anyway.

She must’ve changed her mind along the way because Blair and Chuck have this great scene at the train station. This is when and where Blair asks Chuck to come home because “ My life wouldn’t be the same without Chuck Bass in it”. Chuck then says that he destroyed the one thing that he really cared about. Blair takes a deep breath and says:

I don’t love you anymore. And it takes more than Chuck Bass to destroy a Blair Waldorf

Epic!

Then Blair says goodbye to Prince Charming, telling him that she can’t live in a fairy tale and needs to go back to the US to face her problems. She gives him her shoe, in case Prince wants to come find her.

Chuck finally tells Eva who he is and invites her to come along to the US. Surprised Eva asks him if he got her plane tickets to the US. To which, Chuck replies with

We don’t need tickets. I’m Chuck Bass.

And so this makes me wonder as to how it will all play out next week when everyone is back in New York? I’m so excited!

Oh, and btw, Dan chose Vanessa (yay! Dan is a doughnut. Serena needs someone who can tame her a bit and I think Nate would be able to do that sometime in the future) and Nate chose Juliet who, by the way, seems to be out for blood. Target? Serena van der Woodsen.

Can’t wait to find out who Juliet is.
