‘Gossip Girl’ Recap: Chuck Saves Blair & Dan Makes Her A Princess – Hollywood Life

'Gossip Girl' Recap: Chuck's Secret About Blair's Divorce, Plus 4 More 'OMG' Moments

Freeing Blair from her royal ties was too big of a task for Georgina Sparks to handle -- she had to bring Chuck into the picture. A few episodes back Georgina Sparks (Michelle Tractenberg) was set out on a mission: end the marriage of Blair (Leighton Meester) and Prince Louis' (Hugo Becker).

Reading Time: 3 minutes

And that she did, but she wasn’t alone. She had the help of Blair’s ex/true love Chuck Bass (Ed Westwick). Yes, that’s right Gossipers – Chuck paid Blair’s dowry!

Exactly what she didn’t want him to do, but he did — selflessly — because he just wants her to be happy. Now, that is true love. But — of course — Blair is so blinded by who knows what that she couldn’t see that Chuck didn’t have any ulterior motives by paying her dowry — he just wanted to do something nice for her.

So, when Dan (Penn Badgley) told Blair that Chuck paid her dowry, instead of thanking him, she got mad at him and refused to help him in return with finding his mother.

Frankly, I’m sick of Blair’s selfishness. The least she could have done was say “thank you” to Chuck for freeing her of future royal pains.

And here are my 4 ‘OMG’ moments:

1. Dan Fulfills Blair’s Dream To Be a Princess
Blair was hesitant to sign the divorce papers because she felt sad about letting her dream of becoming a princess go. Boo hoo, Blair! After telling Dan this, he decided to take matters into his own hands and make Blair feel like a princess by dressing her up like a 10-year-old girl at Libby Lou’s and taking her to the steps of the Met. Vomit.

2. Diana Payne Is Back In Town
Diana (Elizabeth Hurley) is back to run the NY Spectator with Nate (Chace Crawford) and to stir trouble. In a failed attempt to break-up Nate and Lola (Ella Rae Peck), Diana almost faced jail time for having sex with a minor. Surprise, surprise. I wish she’d just go away!

3. Serena Stays Gossip Girl
I’d be scared if I were living on the UES with Serena (Blake Lively) — Gossip Girl– watching my every move. She already tried to set up Lola to get herself out of the spotlight, and when that kind of worked out,  she got jealous and made herself the “it” girl again. Tsk, tsk Serena!

4. Chuck Decides To Find His Mom
And I hope it’s not Diana Payne! An investigator has ruled out Elizabeth being his mom  — so who is his mom? Like I said.. it better not be Diana Payne!!

Well, I know Chair fans — like myself — were not pleased with tonight’s episode. But what do you think, HollywoodLifers? Is Humphrey just a phase for Queen B? Vote and weigh in below.
