It’s Halloween in the Upper East Side and you know what that means: Costumes, couture, and candy… probably not the kind that you eat. In this episode of Gossip Girl, Rufus and Lilly are contemplating their Halloween plans. Which really means that Rufus is trying to impose his traditions onto Lilly’s household. But somebody should’ve told Rufus that his kiddy traditions only have a home across the Brooklyn Bridge.
Meanwhile, at the Empire Hotel, Chuck Bass is discussing hotel booking business with Blair, and she insists that he should open up a club he has been thinking about to bring in more business. Not just any business, a fresher, newer business. Let’s just say this kind of crowd is worried more about having their fair share of debauchery rather than the turndown service. However, Blair’s idea of an 80s themed party is shut down and she suspects it’s because Chuck is still mad at her for using him in the last episode, Enough About Eve. Chuck obviously isn’t mad anymore. I mean, come on, of course he’s kissed boys before. His frustration is stemmed from him trying to be an independent entity from his late father, Bart Bass. This venture requires him to branch off on his own business ventures, which opening the club will hopefully solve. And with a theme like “Speakeasy,” it’s hard to think it won’t be a hit.
In other news, Serena is trying to prove to her mother that she doesn’t need to attend Brown this upcoming semester. She is constantly trying to show her mother that she is an adult, so she gets a job with a publicist company. However, little to her knowledge, she’s going to be taken for the ride of her life. And it wouldn’t be a Gossip Girl episode if somehow Serena’s job ventures didn’t somehow colliding with Chuck and Blair’s ventures. That’s exactly what happens.
Chuck magically gets the liquor license expedited so he is able to open up his club that night. Serena tries to prove her worth to her new boss by getting all of their clients on the VIP list for Chuck’s club. However, it turns out the liquor license was a fake and there are now tons of celebrities at an illegal club with illegal alcohol. Ooh, juicy. Of course, this leads to a fight between Chuck, Blair and Serena. To my contentment, Chuck and Blair are one side of that fight and Serena is on the other. I love that they were in it together. To be honest, that’s all I care about. Chuck and Blair stood by each other in this one, and quite frankly, that’s all I can really ask of them. Let’s hope it lasts.
