Gossip Girl: Reading of the Will

This was a really good episode. I have to say this show has started to get much better after I had begun to give up on it. Let's dig in...

After CeCe's passing, they are trying to figure out what she wants for her funeral. Apparently, she has already arranged and paid for everything. It turns out she wanted an Irish wake, where this is music, dancing and drinking as her casket lay right in the middle of their penthouse. Carol of course is super greedy and Lily shows her claws as well. We find out that William (Serena's real dad) is the executor of the will. He will do the reading later on. Everyone is at this wake. Lola, who was brought by Nate to try and get to know Serena better is there and so is Charlie/Ivy who was accompanied by Georgina. Georgina thinks there must be more of a reason why Lola was never introduced to the fam.

Since Georgina is at the party, she left Gossip Girl to her husband. He has no idea what to do so when he gets a tip from Chuck Bass about how Dan sent the video in he posts it along with Chuck's name and email attached. Georgina realizes that everyone will know its her after this blunder, so she decides to give up her post, but not without going out with a bang.

Blair is trying to get out of her prenup and paying this dowry. The woman who is supposed to keep tabs on her has a plan. She is willing to mate with Louie and get her out of her prenup if she stays out of the tabloids. She agrees, but Georgina steals Dan's phone and blasts a pic of Dan and Blair kissing on GG. She will now have to pay the dowry. This plan was never real, since the advisor and Georgina were behind it the whole time. Georgina swears to Blair she will help her if she owes her a favor. She agrees.

The will is being read and we find out that a bunch of the little things like Faberge eggs and tapestries all go to Lily. Carol thinks this is typical. Charlie/Ivy is there too and she says she is staying because CeCe wanted her there. The whole estate, including the penthouse and all of her fortune is left to... Charlie/Ivy! Duh. And they all think its a scam (don't they remember loving her?) until William reads the name on the will says Ivy Dickens. Apparently she told all her secrets to CeCe and she loved her for her. She was her only family. They all feel a fool. But there is more secrets to uncover here.

The Kickers.....

1. Georgina is on her way to Monaco, what will she do there?
2. Blair shows up in Brooklyn saying her heart belongs to Dan. Will this be the new couple? Only if Dan promises to cut his hair.
3. Charlie kicks Lily and Rufus out of their own apartment. They are going to have to move back to Brooklyn.
4. We find out from Carol that Lola is really William's child. She had an affair with him while him and Lily were married, yikes. That means Lola and Serena are half-sisters, not cousins. We end with William calling Lola if she ever wants to talk. No wonder Carol hid her all these years.
5. Georgina leaves her laptop and the GG legacy to Serena. It seems that may be a new chapter in her life too.
