She's a Ringer...

Cliffhanger resolved. Doc tells Shiv/Bridge that she is not pregnant. They go on to say it was an ectopic pregnancy. Andrew is severely upset. Henry is the most upset, because the real Shiv is still preggo with his baby, but now he thinks that his baby has died. Even Juliet has come around to the new Shiv and is comforting her. (Why doesn't the real Shiv run away with Henry? They would be so happy together)

Shiv/Bridge runs into Malcolm and is happy to see him. She goes on to say how her life is now different and she likes it this way. The clothes, the loubs, the money - even so she hands him a wad of cash. He happily goes to buy his next hit of dope with it. I guess 5 years of sobriety are down the drain once he was pumped with the stuff.

Agent Machado is sticking his nose in again. He questions Malcolm to the whereabouts of Bridget (Hello she is in the waiting room under those gorgeous sunglasses) and wants to stick on him like white on rice, hoping he will lead him to Bridge.

Then Shiv/Bridge meets with her new shady sponsor Charlie, tells him EVERYTHING, way to hold back anything! How can she even trust this guy with such a creepy Cheshire cat smile? He then calls his boss the real Shiv and lets her know that Malcolm is there and she tells him to take care of it. I love how they have to write PARIS, FRANCE in the bottom left hand screen and then zoom to shots of Paris landmarks - we get it, its the other Shiv. She is busy trying to keep her new bf happy as he is on his way to Rome. He gets a call from Andrew Martin himself saying that they want to promote him and he should come to New York ASAP to meet with him. We all know where this is heading.

Back in la la land, we find Juliet making her move towards teach. She even offers to see a movie with him and then come back to his place to watch said movie alone. I don't think so little J. He ends up switching her out of his class. I think to avoid the temptation of a teacher-student one on one. She then finds a way to join an after school club of his just to be closer to Mr. C.

Bridget is set up by Machado to wear a wire to see if Malcolm knows anything. Malcolm is confused as to why she is playing games with him, maybe its the crack? She slips a note into the menu so Malcolm knows whats up and he plays along. She finds him afterwards and tells him he needs help. She flashes back throughout this episode to when she was not so sober and Malcolm was there for her. She tells him she can help him and get him back to sobriety.

One of the better parts is when the real Shiv's plan is almost foiled. Her Paris boyfriend goes to have dinner with Andrew Martin and Bridge/Shiv. He looks at her like has has scene a ghost and she sits through dinner having not the foggiest idea why he thinks he knows her as Cora. What she should have done was pulled him aside and been like whats your problem? Then maybe she might know that the real Shiv is alive and well and preggo in Parie. He calls the real Shiv and breaks it off with her telling her that when she flies back from NY pretending to be someone else she should cover her tracks better. The real Shiv was almost caught but somehow got out of this one!

Finally, we have Malcolm coming to Bridge/Shiv for help and staying in her guest room. In the morning, she takes him over to her one trustee in all this - Charlie. Bad move girlfriend. Who knows what Charlie has up his sleeve!

How do you think this will all pan out? Don't you think the real Shiv should call Henry and they should run off together? I also think that Bridget should make a baby with Andrew and be able to live this great life she has been just trying lately.
