Brothers and Sisters: What Dreams May Come
So last night’s “Brothers and Sisters” started with Justin going to his nephew’s first grade class to speak, as he was his hero. Unfortunately it wasn’t because of Justin’s war record, but because he still got to live at home with his mom and play videogames all day. Oops! Justin felt humiliated. I felt so bad for him. The teacher though, she seemed to be giving him the eye. I have been feeling problems coming for him and Rebecca for awhile, so could we see the teacher again at some point perhaps? Even Sarah tried to make Justin feel better by saying the teacher really liked him, which of course she seemed to be making up just to make him feel better.
Kevin meanwhile was recuperating at Nora’s, where Nora was smothering him and taking charge while Scotty did everything wrong, according to Nora. Kevin couldn’t deal with it or the bizarre dreams he was having under the pain meds. He even had a sex dream about Tommy’s wife! Yes, those previews back in December were just a hallucination and not the real deal. No shocker there as ABC is sneaky like that.
Kevin asked Justin to help break him out, which he did. They fled to some shore house, where Tommy and Sarah showed up for an intervention for Justin. They all realized that Justin was stuck in the void of Nora, and he had to move out of the house and move on with his life. Later on though, he admitted to Sarah that he was afraid to move out as he could start using again. I really hope they DON’T go down that road with Justin again, but I just fear if he and Rebecca have issues at some point that it could happen.
Tommy meanwhile, upon learning Keven was having dreams about Elizabeth being his daughter, freaked and stormed out on him. What a jerk, he didn’t even bother to stick around and hear him out! Kevin has been on pain killers and hallucinating, he wasn’t able to explain it to Tommy. No Tommy just flipped and stormed off. Later he returned with a legal document for Kevin to sign saying he would never disclose to Elizabeth the truth of her paternity. Did anyone find it weird he was presenting a legal document to a lawyer and just expecting him to sign it? Kevin did, because he wanted to do what was right for Elizabeth. I don’t know though, this thing is seriously eating Tommy alive. I think in the end Tommy will screw things up all on his own regarding Elizabeth without the help from anyone else. With talk of the actor being let go, who knows where they may go with this story.
Nora was looking for an architect to help rebuild her center house, and some blast from the past who helped design Ojai showed up. Nora seemed to not like the guy at all, thinking he was full of himself. It took Saul to tell her that he likes her and has been trying to impress her for years! Looks like Nora has a new love interest, but so far I’m not feeling this guy that much to be honest. Nora meanwhile found out from Justin that Saul has a boyfriend. Justin used it to distract her while helping Kevin escape. We should be meeting him soon. Can’t wait! I just hope Nora doesn’t insist on making a family dinner.
Finally Kitty filled in for Kevin at Robert’s work, which reignited “Hot Brain Sex” for the two, i.e. getting hot and bothered over discussing politics and then doing it in the office. However Kitty had to quit, as she had tons of press functions lined up for her book promotion, including “The View.”
huh, I got the vibe the architect was Saul’s boyfriend, he was SO into him.

No Saul’s boyfriend is gunna be played by the guy who played Lex Luthor’s father on Smallville I believe. I think this guy is Nora’s new love interest.

Hmm maybe i’m getting my shows confused lol. He’s gunna be on Heroes as Sylars Dad. I SWORE He was gunna be on B&S too though. Have to look things up 🙂 Maybe this guy was Saul’s BF? I thought he told Nora he liked her though.

I felt bad for Kevin. Where’s the thanks from Tommy for saving Elizabeth’s life and taking medical risks of his own? I don’t think that liver transplant is a minor deal! Of course Kevin is going to have to process some feelings after finding out he has a biological daughter.

I loved Justin’s retort when Tommy said he could get a job at Ojai that he could be Rebecca’s secretary. (Maybe this could be the issue that breaks them up. ??)
I wonder if Tommy is going to “go away” to The Big House. In the previews for upcoming shows they touched on Tommy wanting to get Holly out of Ojai, and I think Saul made a comment about something being borderline illegal.

I did feel bad for Kevin, but I also felt bad for Tommy a bit. He has got to feel scared that maybe his daughter could be taken away from him because he doesn’t have that biological link. Not that I think Kevin would ever do that, but from Tommy’s point of view, I am sure it would be scary.
