One Tree Hill 8X2: I Can't See You But I Know You're There

I enjoyed this episode, and Clay and Quinn in the dream world. I get what you're saying about not needing that aspect, but if all we got was Clay and Quinn in the hospital, with Haley by Quinn's side, and Nathan with Clay...which we got, but you can't build an entire episode around that, plus there would have been no Clinn interaction, so I understand the thinking behind giving us what they did, and I thought it worked well for what they were going for. And Haley absolutely slayed me in this episode, and Joy was so damn good here. Her emotions were so on point, so real, raw, and organic, and she just absolutely rocked all the emotions here. From being the one to find Clay and Quinn at the beach house, to having to wait by herself at the hospital until Brooke, and then Nathan got there, and her poignant moments with Quinn by her bedside...all of it she rocked. Loved Julian and Jamie spending the day together, and Jamie fixing Julian's swing, hehe. And it was funny how they kept the joke going about Jamie not knowing who Chase is, and Mia not going to Utah, lol, and Jamie not wanting to go with them, but he immediately goes with Julian, lol. And of course, Jamie would know something was wrong and wants to go to the hospital to see Quinn. Loved that moment between Nathan and Jamie beforehand, and then Jamie giving Quinn the gold star. Also loved how that gold star from last season that Jamie found on the treasure hunt that he gave to Haley to help her, and then Julian, has now made a reappearance at the hospital to help Quinn. It's a never-ending good luck charm for our Tree Hill residents because they sure do need it, hehe. Also love seeing Nathan arrive to console Haley, and then have a poignant talk with Clay to thank him for everything he's done for him and his family, and to tell him he loves him......awwww indeed. And the Naley chapel scene pulls at the heartstrings after everything that Haley just went through with her mom, and now they have two more people in need of lots of prayers right now. The levity was the NHB scene when Brooke congratulated them on the pregnancy and then asked if she could keep Jamie, and Nathan said yes, but she'd have to have the sex talk with him first, lol. Loved that moment between the three of them, and Haley and Brooke were such a nice reminder of how wonderful their friendship is. And Clay and Quinn were great too, and I enjoyed them looking in on the Naley scenes and realizing how much they'd be missed. Also liked how Quinn finding the treasure chest with the gold star and Clay telling her she has to go back, was used for her waking up at the end. Job well done I thought!!!
