Who's Under Your Mask?

This episode of Gossip Girl was very Eyes Wide Shut, but with less confusion. Let's break this down.

Chuck is trying to be the goodie goodie so he is saving ducks, throwing benefits, donating to charity, yada yada - he will always be Chuck Bass. Blair is dead set on proving this. So she crashes the masquerade party. She goes in for a kiss to see if Chuck will do it fully knowing she is taken. He does, of course, Blair slaps him and says he will always be the bad Chuck she knows. However, he had devised a plan with Darota to do this on purpose so she would move on and marry Louie with no qualms.

Dan is on some faux book tour and we hardly see him (thank g-d) His character development is going nowhere.

Serena is writing her blog for Diana and Charlie tells her she should go on a date and then scoop herself before GG gets a chance to. Of course the date she is supposed to go on is with Max, Charlie/Ivy's real ex-boy toy from LA. Diana, fully knowing this, tells Serena to invite Max to the mask party. She then has Serena look like she has been stood up so that Max goes in to the party and goes to kiss Ivy (thinking its Serena - not the first time in GG history, Nate much?) so that Nate will see this and know that Charlie is not into him. Why is Nate so naive?

Charlie has it out with Max in the street and I feel bad for her. Its like she could lose it all at any moment. Max says he likes Serena and Charlie brushes it off like she is a common household name like Advil, not the pretend cousin of hers. Then Diana snaps a photo of Charlie, posts it on GG and for some reason is hell bent on ruining her life.

We finally hear Diana on the phone with whomever she has been in cohorts with the whole time. Its Nate's grandfather. He wants Nate to be back in good standing (which he is) and to ruin Serena's life. I assuming this is because Serena ruined the life of Nate's cousin the almost senator? What I don't get is why she wants to take GG down? I will truly miss the voice of Kristen Bell. Furthermore, if this was a season finale, maybe we would finally see who the real GG was - would you please stand up?!
