The Carrie Diaries, Episode 8: "Hush, Hush"
So, this episode was pretty jam packed. Carrie's secrets finally caught up with her. Walt found out that Maggie was cheating on him. Sebastian attempted a grand romantic chapter. Carrie's dad continued to be irresistible to women? I'm not sure how that continues to happen. Even though all this happened, I think we can all agree that the two most important things that happened in the episode were Carrie getting her first pair of Manolo Blahnik's and tasting her first Cosmopolitan.
The shoes she receives from Larissa after modeling them for a photo shoot. It turns out that Carrie's feet are the only ones that will fit the shoes. Larissa gifts them to Carrie as a thank you for helping out. The Cosmo is ordered for Carrie by a guy that she meets at Lime, a bar where she goes with the rest of the Interview staff. It is love at first sip. Carrie has met the true love of her life. Sorry, Big.
Things are looking good for Carrie, at first. She is loving her new internship. She is becoming a better and better liar, as she gets more practice at it. She uses a lock in at the high school as a cover to go party with her Interview peeps. Little does she know that her dad is in the city as well with Harlan. They end up at the same club Carrie is at, where people are filming the patrons dancing. Carrie sees her dad dancing, horribly, with his date. He spots Carrie and things do not go well. Dad is pissed that Carrie has been lying and that she quit her internship. Larissa is not upset when she finds out that Carrie is only 16. In fact, in pure Larissa fashion she loves it.
At home, Carrie has it out with her dad. She lets him know that what she wants is to be a writer. That she thinks she has found her calling. Like most parents, Dad doesn't listen. Carrie is undeterred, even though she is banned from going into the city.
It's not all bad news for Carrie. Sebastian breaks up with Donna, becoming the first person to ever break up with her. He goes with Mouse to the city to declare his love for Carrie. That doesn't work so well, but he does end up telling her how he feels. Carrie and Sebastian are back on.
It goes down at the lock in. Donna spills to Walt that Maggie has been cheating. She doesn't want to be the only one hurting after her break up with Sebastian. Walt confronts Maggie. She tries to smooth things over but the future homosexual is not having it. He is having a makeout sesh with Donna, in front of the Jens. I'm sure that will workout well.
So, lots happened. Are you surprised that they are jam packing so many Carrie firsts in these episodes? How long until Walt finally coomes out? Is Maggie going to drop out of school? Will Mouse ever get a decent storyline? Why does every woman want to bang Carrie's dad? Let me know your theories in the comments.
