February 2nd, 2009 at 11:59 pm
the leyton scene at the end was perfect!!! i realy didnt like how they were kind of forshadowing peyton being a single mom throughout the episode, and i was so relieved when lucas was there for her when she needed him to be! every little bit of worry that they give us… they quickly make up for! ahhh leyton just keeps getting better and better… love it!
oh and i am now offically a brulian fan. i still think they were about sex at first… but hopefully after this episode, they’ll prove me wrong. i was very impressed with brulian tonight

February 3rd, 2009 at 12:16 am
I floved this eppi!
UGH! Stupid month break. lol
I cried at Leyton scene at the end. ahah
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:20 am
LOVED the episode mostly because it concentrated on the interactions of the core 5…we had LP, BP, HP, HL and NH scenes. I don’t know if it was the throwbacks to the previous season, but it was a good episode. I loved the Brooke/Julian scene at the end in the diner…Julian was tearing up when he talked..it was sweet. Leyton at the end was just pure love. I liked how the episode taped into Peyton’s hormones with planning a wedding and being pregnant…real life emotions. Was so pleasantly surprised with the Haley/Peyton scene. A very satisfied fan here!!!
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:22 am
BEST LEYTON SCENE EVER!
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:25 am
can anyone tell what lucas is saying in his last reading at the end? something about “just a boy and a girl, alone but together in a world called tree hill” or something? i cant make out the first part though… “hiding eachother”?
and i assume he’s talking about him and peyton, since they are clearly the main focus of the book according to what everyone in the show has said about the book
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:26 am
They eye each other. Just a boy and a girl. Alone but together in this place called Tree Hill.
so adorable
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:27 am
ohh they EYE eachother… awww that’s so cute how he ends the script with him and peyton! sweet
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:29 am
steph i was wondering that too. i got the last part, about the boy and the girl (obviously being him and peyton), but i couldn’t understand at first what the first part of that quote was. that’s so cute
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:29 am
Leyton scene at the end was very sweet…
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:35 am
its on youtube but its the last 8 mins of episode so http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjKY2sEWVYw&feature=channel_page
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:40 am
I have to say I had tears in my eyes at the last Leyton scene. Just so perfect.
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:43 am
haha Mary Beth, i’m glad i’m not the only one that cried during the hospital scene. when it was over i thought to myself “i am such a loser i’m probably the only person that cried over this scene” lol it was just so sweet
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:47 am
i cried and i have tears my eyes now from watching it
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:51 am
just another classic LP scene to add to the list
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:52 am
ok why is peyton setting up a crib and baby proofing the house when she isn’t giving birth for like 7 months?? she obviously has way too much time on her hands
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:52 am
okay i freaked out when i heard “you found me” was the coda ; i love love FREAKING LOVE that song. and i cried like a freaking baby at that last leyton scene, OH EM GEE that was perfection. and i totally loved the last scene with brooke and sam ; i really liked that one =) even tho we didn’t get any naley, at least haley kinda sorta had her own story line. which i liked it. it at least led up so *hopefully* they’ll have to mentionher next episode. again, totally in love.
off to watch it again! lol
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:54 am
they picked the perfect quotes to show the ending scenes for the characters. my favorite brooke quote ever, and one of my favorite leyton convos. and i cried at the dr’s too! as soon as luke walked in the door!
February 3rd, 2009 at 1:10 am
steph it was…
“They eye each other. Just a boy and a girl. Alone but together in this place called Tree Hill.”
February 3rd, 2009 at 1:37 am
Great interactions all around
February 3rd, 2009 at 2:02 am
what happened to principal turner
February 3rd, 2009 at 2:15 am
Left? Retired? Who knows. They never said.
Oh god, I cried during the last part with Leyton. And when Peyton called Lucas and his voicemail said if she wanted to keep the message or not so she decided to just act like everything was fine. And when she got the crib from Karen & Andy (Don’t ask me why I had tears in my eyes, but I did)
I loved this episode. OMG Jamie & Dan!!! I love those scenes. LOVE THEM! They deserve the screen time. I really wanted to see Nathan play but I’m glad he’s first line. He deserves it.
This episode did not let me down. I loved it. Why? Core 5!!! Plus Dan&Jamie. It was the perfect mix. I could watch the whole episode over and over without getting bored or skipping over parts.
February 3rd, 2009 at 2:17 am
Haha, when they delivered the crib I squealed like an idiot.
February 3rd, 2009 at 2:18 am
Completely loved brooke/peyton scenes tonight, almost enough to last me a month!
February 3rd, 2009 at 3:58 am
Julian completely redeemed himself in that last diner scene. Even his facial expressions when Brooke was yelling at him were GREAT!! He really really likes her! Yeay for Brooke!!! Knowing that she’s gonna be happy is even making me like Leyton a little bit = ))
February 3rd, 2009 at 4:10 am
hey molly ok i think i wrote a little unclear last night ow it is about 9:08 am in germany we live both in europe between us is only an hour because i live in a zon ewhere we have CET +1 !!! and well sorry again !
it seems to be a great episode so i am going to watch it later today
February 3rd, 2009 at 4:14 am
i love love love this episode!!
February 3rd, 2009 at 4:15 am
Why did Lucas not get the Weird Science reference Dixon said?? Remember his 1st date with Brooke….
Brooke: Tell me you love Weird Science.
Lucas: …the family jewels.
Brooke: He doesnt even have a license Lisa.
I also loved when Brooke told Lucas, “you called me your ‘Pretty Girl’” haha. I love Brucas & they will always be #1 in my heart, but I am loving me some Brulian. Julian is cute
February 3rd, 2009 at 5:01 am
Great episode! I was either crying, smiling or laughing
loved when Dan called Jamie his best friend, actually brought tears to my eyes. Felt sorry for him. I totally felt sorry for Peyton for having to go through everything by her self but then in the end ♥ It was just so perfect and again I was crying lol
New principal…sucks. Haley is strong, I knew that she would do it like that. And Brooke and Julian, I actually like him now. He is so good with Brooke and she needs it. She has changed so much, I really like her character nowadays.
Sucks that we have a break…again.
February 3rd, 2009 at 6:36 am
What is the director’s name? All this time I thought it was Dixon, but tonight they called him Adam and Reese… Anyone know?
February 3rd, 2009 at 7:28 am
reese is the last name
and what? no promo for 6×17
February 3rd, 2009 at 7:53 am
Oooh im from england too and i have had a 4 day weekend cos of the snow! So glad! i have watched like 20 episodes of OTH and instead of having to wait all day to watch the latest, i can watch it now!!!!!! YAY SNOW AND YAY OTH!!!
February 3rd, 2009 at 8:33 am
Anyone else read on Peyton Sawyer’s Wikipedia that it is revealed that Peyton and Julian broke up because she had miscarried their child which leads to her miscarrying her and Lucas’child too
nooooooooo!
February 3rd, 2009 at 11:55 am
Anyone can edit Wikipedia, so don’t take anything written there as “fact”.
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:20 pm
does anyone know when the next eppi is on it was here on the website but its gone is it a 4 week break?
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:33 pm
Well did you see the show, Julian and Peyton broke up because she still loved Lucas, and that she had that book in her bag when they were about to leave. So totally no. Or else how come they were going somewhere together when you say they broke up because of miscarriage?.. They were together when they were about to leave, but the book made him realize that she wasn’t the love of her life. Duhh, who can compete Lucas.. Lucas isn’t around with the crip and everything and she still loves him as hell, no matter what she will never stop love Lucas! And that last episode, was “teeeears” awww, sooo cute. I loved their ultrasound, just wished it was longer, but hey.. gotta be satisfied with what we got (;. Tltl.
February 3rd, 2009 at 12:44 pm
can i just say that i LOVED how particular Lucas was when he was trying to find the perfect Peyton for his movie? it was so cute how he just had to find the PERFECT girl to play her, otherwise the movie just wouldn’t be the same. and how he closed his eyes when that one girl was talking, trying to picture the real Peyton in his head. ughhh so cute
“i didn’t get to pick the director, i’m not making that same mistake with Peyton”
February 3rd, 2009 at 1:36 pm
umm..about peyton and julian breaking up…it was because julian saw the book peyton had and that she never let go of lucas..not about miscarrying their child…
so does anyone know when the wedding is gonna be..i cant wait anymore..i really wanna see the LP wedding…i cant wait….AHHHHHHHH
Stupid 4-5 week break…this is just ridiculous…2 weeks break..6 weeks break..than 2 week break again..and now 5 week break…wth??….do they have any idea how much misery this is putting on the fans??…so there’s a time jump right??…so how many months preggers will peyton be??
i cant wait for the next episode…AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
February 3rd, 2009 at 2:06 pm
Hm.. Naquesha, i read somewhere that The LP wedding will be season finale and the episode is called; Touch me, im going to scream part 2.
But i’m not sure, that its season finale, it was something i read somewhere, but i don’t remember where.
But i kinda have an imaginary season finale.
I it will be the wedding and Peyton will be nine months in her pregnancy, and when they come to the yes part she’ll scream that her water broke. And then she will give birth, and after they will continue the wedding, whether on the hospital or they will do it like before
.
February 3rd, 2009 at 2:07 pm
I think that she’ll start showing, probably 3 months or 4. Or something like that.
February 3rd, 2009 at 2:17 pm
i hope it will be the series finale…unless chad is back….
February 4th, 2009 at 7:43 pm
The only good part of this episode was Brooke and Julian talking in the restaurant when he told her about the REAL Brooke, the Brooke she is now. The rest was just CHEESY.
Just our opinion of course, but we keep watching. hoping it will get better,,,,,,,,,,unfortunately it HASN’T! We are all for Brooke and Julian and SICK of LEYTON. TOTALLY SICK!!!!
February 7th, 2009 at 12:11 am
