Greek – Sign me up for Booktacular

If this is how Greek plans to bring Rusty back into the KT fold, they’ve got their work cut out for them. It really was as if he was visiting his brothers for the first time in eons, a fact that all parties involved acknowledged. But becoming the third wheel in Cappie and Lana’s (Olivia Munn) non-relationship?

Her character didn’t do anything one way or the other for me during her short turn on the show, but corrupting Rusty was the wrong way for Lana to win a place in my heart. Her only lasting effect appears to potentially be awakening something in Rusty, as well as reminding Cappie that it’s time for another “Will they?” in his “Will they or won’t they?” with Casey. What a waste of time.

Cappie and Rusty are whiffing big time where Evan and Calvin seem to be succeeding. The latter’s big/little brother relationship is not only prevalent, but it’s also of interest, and clearly of significance to the two. Right now Rusty and Cappie don’t seem to need each other for anything in particular, while Evan and Calvin are really the other’s only enthusiastic support these days.

But there is some movement on the Evan and Casey front, and it looks like my guess that Evan would pine for Casey appears to possibly be coming true, albeit in the opposite direction. Evan’s turning his back on his trust fund seems to have built him up in Casey’s eyes, while at the same time it’s made his name mud with his Omega Kai brothers. I don’t like that Tripp guy one bit.

But tell me something: what’s with the shallow fickleness of all of these people? Evan’s really a different person because there isn’t a bank account sitting somewhere with his name on it? While I can see some reacting that way, would his fraternity brothers, a place where brotherhood comes before all else? Or the sisters of ZBZ threatening to walk out the door because, although they’ve collectively allowed their house to slip to number four, they’ve chosen to blame Ashleigh?

Who, by the way, has suddenly woken up to the fact that she’s president. She was so close to pulling the trigger on her resignation…. Casey was logically right in convincing her not to, but I could really use the boost in my batting average.

Besides, bribing the Gamma Psis to come to some lame party? Begging the Omega Kais to attend, too? I get that there’s hierarchy and status involved, but ZBZ’s #4 out of how many sororities? I’d guess more than five; likely, they’re top, top, top tier. If #1s only mixed with each other, they’d get bored real fast, no?

On a side note, I’m not into Grant for Calvin at all. I was never a huge fan, especially after we learned that he had a cover girlfriend, but now? Calvin was prepared to out their relationship to the Omega Kai house, while Grant wants to keep living in secret. That’s fine for him if that’s how he wants things, but should Calvin be collateral damage? No.

And you know I saved the best for last — Dale! He didn’t have much substance, but he definitely got in some great lines. I’d love to see him doing some more recruiting for the “JC house.”

“Someone without a college degree shouldn’t be so choosey.” – Dale to Lana

“Hi. Um, I have a friend of mine I’d like to introduce you to; his name’s Jesus. And he pays much greater dividends than those dollar bills in your underpants.” – Dale to a stripper

“Jesus knows how to party; dude makes his own wine.” – Dale to a KTer

And he wasn’t alone:

“You know, some people appreciate my sense of humor.” – Evan
“Some people appreciate Crocs.” – Ashleigh

I prefer Doggers.
