One Tree Hill 5X3: My Way Home is Through You

I don't know if it's just that she's a new character, but Lindsey doesn't really seem to fit in with the rest of the cast. It seems like they are trying to make her friendly with everyone, but she doesn't really have chemistry with anyone. That said, she is totally jealous of Luke getting inspired as soon as both Peyton and Brooke came home. Also, I'm fairly certain that Peyton really does want Luke back. And I'm certain Brooke does not. Peyton protests too much. Plus, it's easy to see how much they still care about each other.

Ugh. I hate this Mouth storyline. I hate everything about it. Plus, Mouth is starting to develop a pattern here of accosting women. I realize we didn't think to hard about this 15 or 20 years ago, but it's super creepy to watch now.

I'm surprised that Nathan hadn't been to see Dan before now. I assume (since Paul is still in the title credits) that'll well see more of him now. But I have no idea how that's gonna play out. I can't imagine people visiting him that often in jail. Maybe he'll get out soon? Or end up on house arrest?

Um, Brooke bought a house in an hour. That's insane to me. Not sure if she's gonna actually get to live in it though. Am I the only one who was completely blind sided by Victoria being Brooke's mom? I mean, she was speaking with weird authority to the person who owned the company, but I thought maybe that's just because she was good at her job and knew how Brooke needed to be handled? Also, how much of Clothes over Bros is Brooke's vs her mom's? Is this gonna be a disaster?

And of course, the Scott family. ❤️

There are more Lucas/Lindsey fans then you think, lol!!! I very much enjoy Lindsey for Lucas at this stage in the show. After the 4-year jump, it was a nice change of pace to see Lucas with his most ADULT relationship yet. Up until this point...all we've seen is Lucas in teenage high school romance department drama, and his relationship with Lindsey feels very settled and grown up to me, and it was a very pleasant surprise how natural and easy going it appears on screen. There is a genuine chemistry between them, and it's not lost on me how well Lindsey fits in with the rest of The Scott Family in NHJ. It's really believable that they've all built a bond over the past several years and have all gotten close with each other and have come to really admire Lindsey and like her for Lucas. Naley are fans of hers, and that speaks volumes, and Michaela was cast very well for the role. She sold me, hands down, hehe!!!!

I know I'm in the minority, but I kinda like 'Lucas' Lindsey' 🤣

Nebulous Shooter

I like how I imediately knew :)))

Ahh! This is so ominous!

Just have to say The Scott Family for the win in this episode. Those last few scenes between NHJ were everything. It was a great snapshot moment of how beautiful this family was together up until Nathan lost his way, and we most definitely needed a reminder of what was, and what could be again. Haley coming home and needing a minute to collect her thoughts in her car as she's pulling into the garage pulls at the heartstrings every damn time I watch that scene. It's a gut-punch knowing how much she was dreading coming home to her family and the broken state they had all been in because of Nathan's accident. When Carrie comes outside and says that someone is waiting for you.....and we see her immediately assume it's Jamie, to then see the utter shock and disbelief on her face when she walks into the dining room and spots Nathan all dressed up at the table, with Jamie by his side waiting on her so they could all sit down as a family for dinner...is everything. Joy played it all so well.... you could immediately read every running emotion passing through Haley's face. Gets me every time, she's so damn good. And then to finally see a lighthearted moment afterwards between Naley as they are sitting on the couch together and joking with one another, and Nathan calls her the "mean teacher" and you can tell he's turned on, lol, it's finally a much-needed moment of hope between them. And I love that Jamie comes downstairs and wants to be with his parents and be a part of a nice family moment for a change instead of what he's been accustomed to seeing for the past few months. Nathan playing basketball with his son as Haley looks on.... meant everything for sure!!! And how powerful was that Nathan/Dan scene.... I always love those moments between those two. Nathan has such a complicated relationship with Dan, and it took a lot of restraint on his part to have cut Dan out of his life for as long as he has, and to have it be revealed that this was the first time that Nathan's come to visit him since he's been in prison, and that Jamie thinks his grandpa is dead...was for sure a gut-punch to Dan. Like I said.... this show never stops with the parallels, lol, they sure know how to do them well, that's for sure!!!! And Dan looking at the picture of Jamie that Nathan left for him......pulls at the heartstrings for sure!!! And Victoria being Brooke's mother and business partner was for sure a fantastic surprise if you didn't know it was coming, hehe. You just wait......you haven't seen anything yet, lol!!!

Melissa

I'm not going to say what I'm referencing, lol.

Sabrina

Oh, Dana.

Sabrina

I don't think she's suppose to be bffs w anyone or part of the group at this point. I didn't feel like they were trying to force friendships on us. She doesn't really live in Tree Hill. To me she's just Lucas' gf (Lucas' Lindsey, lol). She's a little older than them and at a different stage in her life. She's already started living her dream, hence the bamboo. At the end of the day I don't really care about her too much. I was mainly commenting on Lucas. She's a nice new side character. At this point, Jamie is really the only new character.

Heather

I have no issues with Lindsey, as herself. I think she's nice, and everyone seems to like her. But, my problem is literally just the chemistry with her and the rest of the cast. They've put her with pretty much every character and everyone (minus Peyton really) says they like her. But I'm not feeling it. Maybe it's just because she's new? It's not that I don't like a new love interest for Lucas (regardless of how I feel about him and Peyton), I just don't think this actress is the right fit. That said, I do think it's realistic for him to fall for his editor.

Dana Licciardello

Yeah, she's nice and supportive and seems to have her shit together. I didn't have any problems with her.

Heather

Exactly...I always thought that Lucas being with somebody new like Lindsey right now after the 4-year jump was very in character for him, as you pointed out. He's always been this way when it comes to love, lol. What would have been surprising indeed was if Lucas and Peyton were still together at this point because nothing in their characters past history proves otherwise, because they were never written that way. I also liked Lindsey and enjoyed her very much, and I thought it was very realistic that Luke would have fallen for his editor and been drawn to somebody like her. I thought Lucas and Lindsey had great chemistry together and it was a nice change of pace without all the trauma drama for once, and at this point in time on the show, I thought it really worked!!!

Melissa

Lucas has always been like this in regards to love. He jumps from Peyton to Brooke and back to Peyton in season 1. Then they both decide to leave him alone. In season 2 he jumps from Anna then quickly decides he really loves Brooke. Season 3, Brooke is his destiny until Peyton decides she still loves him, so Brooke dumps him. He was saying he loves Brooke in 4x02 and trying to get her back then telling Peyton he loves her in 4x11. It's been 4 yrs since the end of season 4. Peyton and Lucas not being together (for wtv reason) and Lucas moving on to Lindsey and telling her he loves her and that wouldn't change, while probably still having feelings for Peyton, wasn't all that surprising to me.

Heather

Yeah. They were my first ship on this show. I was so all about them. Then, a bunch of HS BS happened (fine, they're teenagers), but I really thought they'd moved past that and were gonna be together when this season started. I'm super surprised. You guys know what happens (don't tell me!) but I still think they're gonna end up together.

Dana Licciardello

I hate what the writers did to Lucas and Peyton this season, still to this day it made no sense considering how they ended up together in season 4. I know show needs drama and angst but considering that those two already went through that, the writers should’ve just left them alone. If there was one storyline I could go back and change, it’s the storyline this season they do with Lucas and Peyton

Juy Ahmad

Agreed. They made it seem like this was the epic love story of the ages. And now it's just over? I need more backstory on this!

Dana Licciardello

I don’t like how they ended the season with Lucas and Payton finally then to just take it away smh
