| Do you notice the only way they could justify getting Neela and Brenner closer to make this story even close to a triangle is by making Neela think there is no future with her and Ray?
First, you have him leaving her at the end of Haunted? Then in the next episode, even though in the first five of this season she is telling him that she doesn't want a relationship with him, she is acting all friendly with him at the bar. Then they have Ray meeting someone else, a lawsuit, all of which makes her vulnerable enough to turn to Brenner. So the only way they can get away with making her turn to Brenner is by putting a wedge between her and Ray. | |

| Yeah, I know what you mean D! I can't say that I'm surprised though. I mean let's be honest, we kinda saw this coming anyway. But you know what, I'm looking at this as the ultimate test for Neela. The old Neela would just become weak and lose control and do something totally ridiculous that she'd later regret, i.e. sleep with Brenner again. I think this is what TPTB is trying to do. They are trying to show that things will be different this time. Neela is once again vulnerable. Ray has left, she doesn't know where she stands with him, she thinks he has a girlfriend, and now she's facing this lawsuit. We all know what happens when Neela is confused. This is definitely the ultimate test for her. This is her last chance. Either she'll make it or break it. | |

I really hope ur right... but u have to remember what Neela decides to do is entirely dependant on the writers. And the question is... have the writers grown? I thought they would've made Neela grow up after Ray's accident - but she ended sleeping with someone she barely knew in the hospital break room!!!! That was repulsive for many reasons... he was a pig, she didn't know him, there was no mention of what the status was with Ray - it looked like she didn't care about what happened to Ray all yr (which made her look like a complete cow!) and just shagged the first available male. But now Ray's left her after she practically begged him to stay, then she finds out he has a girlfriend - and Brenner is no longer a stranger. He's one of the only friends she has left. It's hard to say if the writers are trying to justify Neela moving on for a while; or if they're setting her up to show things will be different. But what would she be turning Brenner down for? A guy she may be in love with, who doesn't want to be with her anymore (at least that's what she thinks) and already has another girlfriend? After all, Ray's moved on. The writers want to justify Neela doing the same without her incurring the wrath of Reela fans. We can't really blame Neela for moving on, if Ray has, can we? We can, however, blame the writers. Next week can't come quickly enough... - Spoiler:
We know Brenner tries to "cheer her up" - my question is, how does Neela respond?
Although in many ways, I don't want to watch next week. If something does happen, we have to wait a whole 3 weeks to undo it. | |
