Was anyone else let down by the hype this episode got? OK..I enjoyed the episode, but it was not at all what I expected. I am noticing a trend with this on other shows as well.

All of the lead up made us think that this was to be an "Ode to Columbine". The school in lock down, and all of that. Then it's all just one kid who made it up because he wanted to be a hero. Then the rest is the teachers preparing for the talent show.

The moment that boy accepted an on camera interview you had to know it was planned. If he had thwarted a real plot, don't you think he would have been nervous about retribution? And when he does confess and Lauren goes to see him and asks him why. Why can't she let him finish a sentence? "I just wanted them to stop." "Who..the students?" He never really says, and she guesses that he's being teased at school, but maybe that isn't it. Maybe it's something deeper and we won't know because she keeps trying to fill in the blanks.

As for the Talent Show, it was cute. I liked the whole vengence thing going on with Marilyn and Ronnie..that was funny. Lipshitz trying to act all sultry had me curled up in a ball. Guber's Nixon was just stupid. I'm glad they didn't actually show it on stage because I hate it when they have Scott do something out of character like that. Do we really think Scott would get up and do comedy? A dramatic reading maybe, but comedy??

Any other thoughts on this week's epidode?
