Ryan + Marissa

What happened to sweet Marissa? After Ryan briefly left, she threw herself into alcohol addiction—which has nasty consequences, believe me—and slept with the gardener. Consequences? It’s pretty clear that joker Seth and his girlfriend are getting back together, but what really interests me is Ryan and Marissa.

And just when you thought life was beautiful again and the two would confess their eternal love for each other, that stupid Lindsay shows up in the next episode and turns his head. Hello?! Where are the fatal car accidents in TV series when you really need them?

We can only hope that Cupid will have mercy and bring Ryan and sweet Marissa back together, and wait and see what thoughts the next episode of The O.C. leaves us with. Next Wednesday, 9:10 p.m., ProSieben.
