Talk about the Hundreth Episode of Tree Hill here...

[~ ♥ Mariska ♥ ~]

I think that this episode explained itself why OTH is such a succes that it has 100 episodes already.
There was so much drama going on, but there were also so many moments that we just so much fun and the voice-over was great!
It was maybe even the best episode off all and I can't wait to see how it continues at April 14th! Just 3,5 week!! haha

The whole story about Lucas his book was great! How he wrote that story about the comet and that Lindsay found out that it was about Peyton till she almost say "I do" but I'm glad she didn't! I just can't figure out if Lucas goes back to Peyton now or not... He really seemed lost after Lindsay run away and altho he talked to Lindsay after it, I don't really know if he can let her go now. Today was the first time that I believed that Lucas loves Lindsay. Atleast, in some weird kind of way that we don't know from Lucas. It's weird, because Lindsay seems to be gone for good now, but I believe that Lucas loved her. I think that for him it was in the beginning a way to deal with what Peyton did to him. And I think that after that he started to love Lindsay for the way she was there for him and all. And the making out scene was HOT!!! And I also think that if Lucas wouldn't have loved Lindsay he wouldn't propose. Yeah, it was a way to hide from the pain and drama that he has with Peyton but he did that before. When he dated Brooke in season 1 it was some kind of hiding too, altho I always thought that he loved Brooke too. And now that Lindsay is gone and Brooke asked him this question about a baby, I think that it might take some time before we see the hot Leyton scenes again. yeah, I really love Leyton and I hope with whole my heart that they will come together next episode, but Lucas needs to deal with this first! But I think that they will get together in this season! I can't wait for the talk between Lucas and Peyton that Brooke talked about! But Lucas was really great as a friend for Haley and Nathan today! I was so glad that Nathan talked to him like a brother and a friend! But I understand that Lindsay can't do this anymore, I think that in her heart she always know this, she just didn't want it because she really loves Lucas.

Okay, enough about Lucas and Lindsay. Altho I have some things to say about Peyton. I really wished that she would have said those words out loud! But I'm not so sure if it would have made Lucas say no. But her dream in the beginning was so beautiful! It was a great scene! I would have loved to see her married with Lucas! Altho she was a great friend for Brooke!

Brooke, she surprised me this episode. The question to Lucas about her baby was weird! I didn't get the scene, but I was glad that she told Peyton later! It explained a lot!

I was glad to see Karen back! And her being with Andy again was so great! Lily was beautiful too!

The scene when Nathan wanted to come home was great! How it mixed many scenes of Nathan and Haley, I would have loved that that scene really happened! But I hope that he comes home now! He really tried the best he could to Haley!
I was sorry for the whole Jamie story! But I was so glad that Dan rescued him! And I was so glad that there were still 7 more minutes to go when Carrie said that she was going to be Jamies mom now, because I read that it would be the end of the episode, but I was so glad that it wasn't!

Okay, that's it for now, I'm going to watch the episode again with my brother. I might write more later!

I've written a big post about this episode on another forum, so I'm just going to copy it.

Well I watched it. And it was definitely worth the wait. THE best episode ever. It was made as if they thought carefully about every single line said, and all of them have a meaning,and are perfect in that moment, and none are insignificant. Everything is in it's right place. So, let's start from the begining.

Lucas, Haley and Jamie were really cute in the car. Lucas is the perfect uncle. And Jamie is the cutest nephew.
It's cool how the eppy starts with people imagining something-Peyton imagines her getting married, and Nathan him and Haley kissing, which is such a cute scene, a throwback to their first kiss in 1x08. Very cool. And Brooke imagining also that she was getting married. And the dress is beautiful.

It was great to see Andy back, and I loved his conversation with Lucas. And it's great to see Karen and Lily. Lily is so cute.
It really is great to see Haley telling Lucas he's in love with Peyton.
You get to see some brother love between Luke and Nate, and that's also cute. Everybody is great

Lucas/Lindsay. Honestly-this episode, and Lindsay in it almost made me want them to get married. Almost. I'm still a Leyton fan. But, the scene with Lindsay leaving was really sad, and seeing it, you really just want her to stay, just for Lucas's sake, coz he's all sad, and all you want is for him to smile again.

Skills was really amazing in this episode. He made me laugh many times.

Peyton was heroic when she decided not to say anything and to let Lucas get married. That's the kind of things I expect Peyton to do, and that's the kind of things that make her my favourite character.

Brooke-strong as always, and beautiful as always, but I'm really curious about how this baby idea is going to work out.

Haley was amazing. Strong, and such an amazing mother. And she was beautiful.

Nathan was great. Fighting for Haley's love. Comforting her when Haley was upset about Jamie.

Nanny Carrie-well, hopefully that's over now.

Dan-rudeness is a big problem of his. But he did a good thing getting Jamie back.

The most beautiful scene ever in One Tree Hill took place in this episode. I loved the scene because it was very intense and had the best music ever in the background. This is the scene starting with Carrie talking to Jamie in the bathroom. And the music is one of the most beautiful songs ever-Never Tear Us Apart by INXS. The song is so intense and so is the scene. Especially with Lindsay talking to Lucas about the comet, and the look on her face when realisation finally dawns upon her, and then running out of the church, and the mix of that scene with the scene of Jamie and Carrie running out of the church. And the song finally ending with a devastated Lucas sitting on the stairs in the church. The most beautiful scenes ever.

Well, I honestly have to say, this is my favourite episode of One Tree Hill. And I am going to watch it over and over again.

TV Guide Blog on OTH: Recap on "Hundred"

It was a different church and a different couple, but I was experiencing serious deja vu to Keith’s wedding. Ultimately, the end result was the same: a Scott man was left standing at the altar.

Throughout this season, the writers have been driving home the point of Lucas following in Keith’s footsteps, especially in the active role he plays in being Jamie’s uncle. Tonight’s opening scene didn’t even try to be subtle, with Lucas’ voice-over talking about the local road trips he, Karen and Keith used to take, all while we were seeing scenes of Jamie, Haley and Lucas in the car as a Bruce Springsteen’s "My Hometown" played in the background (this Jersey girl would like to thank the producers for that). Of course, the one major difference is that Lucas isn’t pining for Haley – he’s pining for Peyton, only he still doesn’t quite realize that. Wake up Luke! Haley saw what was going on, and eventually, so did Lindsey: The boy in the manuscript had his life changed by a comet, and he waits for the comet to come back; Peyton drives a Comet. You would think a guy who’s always quoting poetry and analyzing literature would be able to see this. But I guess what they say is true: You never see what’s right in front of your face.

We viewers got to see what was going on in the minds of a lot of the characters courtesy of some daydream scenes. For a minute, I thought the scene in the beginning in which Nathan grabbed Haley and kissed her was real, but I soon realized it was just too good to be true (I did catch on before the indoor rain started). But when Peyton stood up in the church and proclaimed her love for Lucas, I wasn’t sure what was happening. I was praying that this too was a figment of her imagination, as I cringed when she exclaimed, "You fixed my car." Thankfully she did not really do that. I want Lucas and Peyton back together, but that was just painful. As was the look on Peyton’s face all night, which was occasionally masked by a strained brave front. I don’t know how she did it – I get that she wanted to support Lucas as a friend, but I don’t think I could attend the wedding of someone I was still in love with.

Speaking of love, it looks like Karen has found the strength to move on and rekindle her relationship with Andy. I was always fond of him: He’s cute and he has an appealing accent – what’s not to like. Karen also gave Peyton and Brooke some good advice about finding love in places you’d never imagine, such as in work or a new relationship. Of course, this was the point when Brooke chimed in with "children," and we later learned that she wants a kid in order to fill some of the emptiness in her life...but that seems like a plot that’s merely been hinted at and will be fleshed out down the road. Back to Karen’s advice – I couldn’t help but feel bad for Lindsey throughout this episode, because she had no one like Karen to go to. I realize she’s not one of the regular characters, but could they have cast a mom for her for at least this one episode? Perhaps a cousin and a fellow editor coworker too? They didn’t even have to have lines – merely let them stand near her. She just seemed so alone. Her wedding party consisted of one person: her newish friend Haley. When she ran out of the church, no one ran after her. When she went back to Lucas’ to get her things, no one went with her. Half the church was filled with her family and friends, yet no one was there for her after experiencing a devastating non-wedding? Perhaps one of them could have stopped her from saying "I could be your comet" to Lucas (I was hoping that was a daydream too, but no, she really said that).

When Lindsey finally left Lucas’ house, her exit felt pretty final. I hope it is – let this triangle be over. Let the woman leave with some dignity. But there’ll be no such dignity for nanny Carrie, who tonight officially joined the long list of One Tree Hill psycho characters. As many of you predicted, she did indeed kidnap Jamie, and Dan saved the day. Though a bit predictable, I prefer this to the alternative popular theory of Dan and Carrie being in cahoots (that would have really echoed the Keith and Jules/Emily’s non-wedding). Why did Skills let Jamie go to the bathroom alone? Why didn’t Haley and Nathan ever tell Jamie that Carrie was a bad person that should be feared? The kidnapping plotline quickly eclipsed the wedding story, and thank goodness Dan didn’t do as Haley said and stay away (loved their scene together, with Haley intensely yelling at him and Dan being all smarmy and acting like it was a turn-on).

I’m not sure how Dan got a frightened Jamie to let him in that hotel room. After all, the kid had nightmares about his grandfather. But Dan can be a pretty convincing guy. As well as a pretty terrifying guy: When he had his hand around Carrie’s throat, I wasn’t sure whether he would actually kill her. Then he threatened her and told he about how he killed his own brother in cold blood. That was a powerful scene, and I was so mad at Carrie I was kind of cheering him on. By the end, I was worried that no one would believe Dan – they already all thought he was the one who took Jamie. But then Jamie explained, "Grandpa Dan saved me," and they have no reason not to believe the kid. Then Dan entered, looking all smug as usual. Everyone was shocked, but Karen’s face was just priceless. I hope we see more of her this season.

So in the end, one Scott boy reconnected with his wife (though it was a shame it took something as drastic as their son’s kidnapping to bring Nathan and Haley back together), while the other lost his wife-to-be. I was surprised that Lindsey was the one who ultimately said "No" at the altar, but I’m glad one of them did. Although, it might have been more fun if, as Skills suggested, Lucas said the wrong name "just like Ross did on Friends" (who knew Skills was a Friends fan?!). I’m glad they didn’t leave us with a cliffhanger.

I read this post and I agree with everything that she said. It all made total sense to me and it's exactly how I feel about the episode.

[~ ♥ Mariska ♥ ~]

Yeah, she wrote it a nice way and I agree with her too!
Altho I have to say that I haven't thought about Keith's wedding in a long time!!!

[ Meg]

I had not either, but it made a lot of sense to me...ties him with Keith a little bit more.

[~ ♥ Mariska ♥ ~]

Yeah, indeed!

[ Meg]

You know what really made me happy about this episode and the Breyton friendship??

I was glad that Brooke did not get mad about Peyton not coming right out and saying she came back for Lucas...mostly because she didn't tell the truth either (except to Lucas-which is weird by the way).

I think that was mis-interpreted in the spoilers before...I think people mistaked Brooke asking Lucas to father her baby from that talk they had in her store about her just wanting a baby.

I think it was good for her to confide in someone, I just thought it would have been Peyton first, not Lucas. That surprised me.

[~ ♥ Mariska ♥ ~]

Yeah, I agree with you!!!
