Promplems, problems, problems.... La dolce vida!
19 March 2008 | by (Romania) – See all my reviews

Seth and Zach declare themselves rivals for Summer's affections; Marissa is still reeling from being nearly raped by Trey; Sandy confronts Kirsten when her drinking problem becomes very apparent; Caleb hands divorce papers to Julie.

Marissa hider from Ryan what happened when he was in Miami. Frankly, she did the best thing, because Ryan would have killed Trey.

It's time for a new third wheel in the Summer-Seth relationship. Actually, Zach's purpose on the show was to be the third wheel, like a replacement for Anna. So now, Summer is in Seth's position, the one from last year. He had all the reasons not to choose Summer, except only that she was the girl of his dreams. Summer loves Seth, will she choose him over everything else? I think it would be fair.

I don't understand why Kirsten is acting like that, the key to her problems with Sandy is communication. Is she able of that? Of course! But why hold back?
