Episode 5, Part 1: When to Let Go


At last, the truth comes out…


Lily and Rufus are finally getting married! Rufus and Lily have been in a bit of a disagreement about Serena’s decision not to go to Brown. Rufus and Lily talk and wonder why they don’t just take a leap of faith and get married soon. Rufus tells Lily to stop looking for an excuse to not get married and they set the date for the following day. As the wedding is about to begin, Lily tells Rufus that she isn’t ready to get married and they start arguing. Just at that moment, Scott and Georgina appear. Georgina tells Lily and Rufus that Scott is their son, but Scott had already run away when he saw his parents arguing. Rufus and Lily catch Scott and tell him they really love each other and Lily just was having a hard time letting go of her fear of loving someone fully. It was good to see Lily finally admitting her fear and telling Rufus that she was afraid of having her heart broken by him. I was also glad that someone (even if it was Georgina) finally told Lily and Rufus that Scott was their son. It seemed almost like fate that the couple found out who their son was on their wedding day. They seemed to have come full circle and it was like they were falling in love like they did 20 years previously. Later that night, the couple did get married with a few family members and friends by a preacher hired through a “sketchy service on the internet,” as she said. I think that this even made the wedding more special because it showed that all Lily and Rufus needed were each other. Lily was no longer worried about impressing others and throwing a massive wedding just because she is Lily Bass.
