The Model Home

Meat loaf incident of '98. Wish we could get a flashback.

We really want to sell piece of paper being lifted from other piece of paper. Superb sound editing.

Sandy has a contact at child services. That contact is Seth, unfortunately.

Seth is lobbying for Ryan to stay. You go sethafor.

Ryan, would you mind if we started calling you seth?

Oh, Tate Donovan.

Shot on location at Bakersfield. Tonight, the role of the OC will be played by...Bakersfield.

Ryan can't sleep, the thread count on the sheets is too high. Now Seth is here."Are you running away?"

Yes, what ABOUT child services.

Ryan, why so many layers if you leave them all unzipped. and whats the story with the choker? 

"its my immigrant grandfather's choker."

"Listen, I didn't even want to do this scene. It was McG's idea."

Tonight Marissa will be played by Christie Yamaguchi.

They always meet at the bottom of the driveway. Good place for the makeouts.

Ryan: "Do you usually drink that much?"

Marissa: "I usually gobble more cock"

Luke is at the EXACT SAME party that was in the first episode.

Just chillin' at an abandoned model home with some In 'n Out, talking about relationships.

Martin: Things are getting really awesome

Will: This is getting way too compelling to even live-blog

This scene is very poorly lit.

Wife beater + choker + highlights = ULTIMATE MAN

Will: There are so many scenes of [Ryan] just walking. And looking.

Martin: Ryan's flown the coop... get it?

Caitlin: I LOVE CHINA! SHE'S THE PRETTIEST PONY!!!!

Product Placement: Kiehl's Cucumber Moisturizer 

Martin: Oh, now we're getting introduced to the whole boardwalk scene! Classic shit.
