I know this is late, and Lost is coming up, so I'll be brief. Sorry if you wanted more.
Danielle is dead, but we know why there was the hubbub about her. She had Louis Tobin's daughter, and Marilyn says she was supposed to leave the country so the family wouldn't splinter. She can't be trusted, but Danielle is dead now.
Ellen hooked up with some random guy again. This season, it's Josh Reston, the reporter from season 2. It's definitely not anything new, but Josh may be integral to the story. What I'm more interested in is Wes. Ellen brought him up, so he is on her mind, but how much does she know about him?
Patty's dream sequences are back, and seemed to indicate something ominous on the horizon. Other than that, I really didn't get it. Horse + Blood + Uncle Pete + Ellen = ? Yeah, that's how far I am.
The flashforwards showed Tom dying in a grotesque fashion. It looks like Zedeck is involved since his assistant took Tom's body to the dumpster. Tom manages to call someone, and tell him/her he loves her. The most obvious choice is his wife, but it could be anyone.
Score: 8.8/10
