One Tree Hill 9X10: Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will

OMG. I was just saying that the only way for Dan to actually get redeemed is that he has to die. And then he fucking dies? Are they serious? Do I really have to forgive him now? Am I ready for that? (After all this, he's probably not even gonna be dead 🙄).

So, Dan trains Julian and Chris to help him rescue Nathan. I wish someone had accidentally killed Chris in the process. All he did was bitch and whine. Julian showed up and was ready to rock, though. However, when it came time to actually save Nathan, Dan locked him out of the car and told him to to home to his family.

Anyway, Dan bursts in Rambo style. He kills a handful of people immediately. While this is happening inside, Chris kills one of the guards by sandwiching him against the wall with the car. Once he's done that, he flees.

Inside, Dimitri hears all the commotion and heads outside to see what's going on. Once he sees, like, all his guys are dead, he kills 'Nathan.' But it's not actually Nathan. Dan (I assume) swapped him out for one of the guards. He and Nathan are fine and trying to find a way out of the building. But, as soon as they try to leave, they run back into Dimitri who tries to shoot Nathan, but Dan jumps in front of him taking the bullet.

Thankfully, Nathan as stolen Dan's gun when that happens and when Dimitri tries to shoot him again, Nathan doesn't hesitate and kills him. It seems like he's home free (you know, minus his dead dad), but the corrupt cop shows up acting like this is all an inconvenience for him. Turns out, Julian is still around and knocks him out. Nathan is trying to revive Dan while Julian makes a call. (Could be 9-1-1, could be Haley, either/both are good options).

While all of this is going on, Xavier is back to stalking Brooke. Somehow (no idea where this came from) but they are in an underground parking garage and he's followed her there. He's got a knife on her and puts it down to be creepy and grab at her, and she gauges his eyes and takes off.

However, her hiding space isn't great and he finds her pretty quickly. They fight and fall down stairs. Things don't look great. When she asks him why he's doing this, he basically says, 'because I can.' But, it's other cafe owner to the rescue! (Nope, still don't know her name- and I hate that she was the one who rescued Brooke). She shows up and tases Xavier. Then, Brooke tases him too for good measure.

Clay is busy driving around with Quinn and talking about how he loves her. They head to the cemetery to tell Sara that Clay remembered Logan. It's all fine. And in any other episode I would have enjoyed this, but not today.

Also, can you guys let me know, if I watch the last 3 episode as they listed on Hulu, is that correct? Melissa mentioned to me that there was a special version of this? Do you guys know if it's on Hulu? Somewhere else? I don't want to look because of spoilers. 😳
