Softening?

Nathan is a disgusting creep. Openly talking about how he's pretending to like Samantha just to take her virginity is grotesque. Hope someone puts him in his place in short order. Speaking of Samantha, she needs to stop throwing everyone under the bus whenever she's trying to make a point. There is no way Martin should be mad at Kat for having an adult conversation. She didn't even know Samantha was listening. Not her fault. Martin needs to cool down with the quickness. Flying off the handle without the full story has never worked out for him before. Should be smart enough to change.

Here's something I thought I'd never say. Really like the scenes at Uptown between Leslie and Ted. The thaw between them seems to be coming out of nowhere, but I'm not mad at it. Just hope it's a sincere effort on Ted's part, and he's not going to be nice to Leslie just because he thinks things are completely over with Nicole. Don't get me wrong, he should definitely exercise extreme caution, but let things flow naturally, have an open mind, and see what happens.

Derek/Ashley/Andre is worse than having kidney stone surgery. This storyline has been on a merry-go-round for almost a year, and absolutely nothing has changed. This lather, rinse, and repeat makes me want to slowly remove my eyeballs with a spoon. I see potential redemption and usefulness in Ashley, but Derek needs to go yesterday, and she needs to stay the hell away from Andre. Maybe she could take a spin with Izaiah?
