Episode 3
S4E03 - "The Undergraduates"
Grab your waffles and pour the mimosas, Upper East Siders—Leif and Steve are back to break down Gossip Girl Season 4, Episode 3, “The Undergraduates.”
This week, we dive into Blair’s Columbia debut, Serena’s unexpected snub from Hamilton House, and Chuck’s attempt to rehab both his image and his love life with Eva. Meanwhile, Juliet keeps playing puppet master, Dan faces heartbreak as Milo is taken out of his life, and Rufus wrestles with just how much of Chuck’s past he can forgive.
We talk the return of Penelope (and the minions), the writers’ questionable handling of Chuck’s redemption arc, and whether Serena and Blair’s friendship has finally reached a grown-up phase… or if history is about to repeat itself. Plus, predictions, fandom reactions from 2010, Stockwatch, Best Outfit, and all the delicious drama you’ve come to expect.
