Episode 12
Gossip Girl S1E12 - School Lies
Leif and Steve do a spoiler free recap of the original Gossip Girl TV show that aired on the CW from 2007-2013. They take a deep dive–one episode at a time–examining all the references to old movies and literature as well as exploring all the parallels and foreshadowing used by the writers. Not to mention, discussing all the schemes, secret hookups, and couture catastrophes.
This week the guys break down season 1, episode 12, titled, School Lies.
The TWoP episode description reads: Serena, Blair, Nate, Chuck and "their entourage," whatever that means, break into the school swimming pool for a night of fun that leaves somebody nearly dead. The ringleader is threatened with expulsion, so everybody agrees to a secret pact of silence. There is then major tension between Serena, Dan, and Dan's self-important sense of heroism: will he take the fall and risk returning to DUMBO forever? Where he belongs? Vanessa expands her creeping, stalking and otherwise boundary-ignoring bullshit to include Blair and Chuck talking about their hot affair. Less hot: Lily contemplating telling Rufus how she really feels about him, for the twelfth week in a row.
