Ringer: The Big Reveal

I have to say by the end of this episode I was sitting up ramrod straight and scream NO WAY into my TV screen. That is how I know it is a good drama! Let's dig in, shall we?

Bridge comes home to two boots, a fur coat, some spilled red wine. She assumes its Juliet, but then in comes Jules after a double feature. They head to the bathtub where she sees some woman in bubbles drinking. "Don't look so surprised Shiobban. This was my tub first" she says as Juliet chimes in "Hi Mommy". Hence the title of this episode "What are you doing here Ho-Bag?". haha. Cathryn has been called in to spend some time with Juliet after the whole rape thing. Instead of making pancakes, Cathryn takes Juliet for brunch at shopping at the three B's with Andrew's credit card of course.

Malcolm is traveling so Bridge keeps leaving him messages with things she keeps finding out. The hotel Pavionne in Boston is closed, so she tries to research the one in Paris. She calls Andrew's office and asks when they went to Paris and the assistant says they have not but Andrew is going in a few weeks to meet Tyler Barret. She flashes back to the dinner with Tyler where he calls her Cora. She calls the hotel and says she left her blue makeup bag there and the woman who answers says she remembers Cora vividly. She then calls Tyler and he is all confused why she is calling from the house phone since they don't speak there. Bridge is confused but for some reason cannot piece together that Shiv may still be alive, hello! They had just spoken and Bridge says she is on her way back to him after she gets hooked up with her man Soloman.

Shiv has her own plans. First she tries to pawn the ring she stole and gets $15,000 cash for it. She then gets fake passports, first with Cora Farrell and then asks for  another name. Meanwhile, she tells Henry that she pretended to end their love to protect him. She asks to meet him at their spot. He follows her and gets the fake passport, assumes she is Bridge and turns her over to the cops. Machado is super happy, but after he runs the prints he realizes she is the real Shiv. Damn Machado!

Speaking of Machado, he and his partner are trying to get Jimmy to fess up about Makawi and the murders. He refuses, but after getting beat up in the joint he confesses to the murders himself. Machado is not happy, because he knows he is lying. Bridge never mentioned Jimmy being there. Cut to a scene where Jimmy and Makowi are talking via glass jail phones and he offers his services to find Bridge if he gets him out. Why is he working for him? I have no clue either.

Back at home, the principal is there to show them some footage from the hallways. It shows Juliet trying to pounce on Mr. Carpenter. Her mother flips out and blames her for lying and then starts burning pictures of her daughter being drunk. Andrew kicks her out with her boots thrown into the elevator and throws some cash at her. Bridge believes Juliet, but it seems nobody else does.

Bridge is getting closer to the truth. She realizes that her sister has been lying to her. She realizes that there is a way to rearrange the letters of names to make secret ones, like Soloman. She calls him up and asks for the usual. Cut to the guy from Cruel Intentions (nice SMG!) who picks her up and asks if she has her gun. Confused Bridge says no, the other usual and he offers to take her to the airport. She asks when the last time they went and he says 9 months ago to Wyoming. Looks like sis knew where she was all along. What else could she be lying about? Andrew finds out the ring was pawned, they assume it was stolen and he buys it back for her and resizes it.

And the kickers....

1. Juliet's friend Tessa comes in and says she hopes she is still pressing charges. Why you ask? Because she was raped by Mr. Carpenter as well. Andrew hears the whole thing and we know that Juliet was telling the truth
2. And the biggest of them all. Shiv tells Henry that she loves him and she is the real Shiv, but seeing is believing. She has her back turned as Henry watches as Bridge gets out of the limo and into her apartment. WOW. The look on his face was priceless. BOOM. Then she tells him that Bridge is living with Andrew, she is still in love with him and she is still having his baby, BOOM. Bomb after bomb on this show. I LOVE IT.

Could this get any better? Let's wait and find out next week!
