I'm starting this thread because I am curious about the episode. If you are able to watch during the day, please post what happens. Dorian and Clint are both suppose to be on. After what seems like weeks, Dorian and Clint finally talk.

Dorian is on the phone with Byron (her attorney) when Clint starts knocking on the kitchen door. D yells for the maid to answer it but finishes her call in time to do it herself. Clint is standing there and Dorian greets him with a big smile.

He comes in, she says that she's been having a hellish day, and he says that he sees she isn't bloody and under a fallen book case. He starts to leave, now that he knows she is alive and seemingly fine, and she stops him. Talks about using all her energy from the hellish day for better purposes and starts to unbutton his shirt and kiss his chest. He stops her.

They're fighting. Dorian claims that Clint wasn't really worried about her just mad that she didn't call him. That she could have something going in her life that was more important than him. She claims that he's trying to control her (just like all men once they've been to bed with a woman they want to be in charge--not a direct quote). Clint is trying to say that it's not like that at all, but Dorian isn't really letting him say much.

(I'm remembering Clint telling Nora that he was mad at Dorian for not calling him - he never really seemed worried until he got to Dorian's door.)

More arguing (it's kind of joke arguing IMO), but Clint thinks that he did deserve a phone call. Dorian said he was the next person she was going to call and Clint interpreted that as being on her to do list. She ends the scene by saying "Maybe we can't pull this (relationship) off."

This is one of those fights that could have ended two scenes ago if we weren't dealing with two very stubborn people. Again, my opinion.

Ahhhh! he finally said it!!!!!!

Discussion continues. I changed it to "discussion" because they aren't raising their voices. She told him that when she started to take on this problem (referring to the Langston matter) she decided to do it solo. She doesn't think Clint would have made the same choice. Dorian claims that she doesn't need to know Clint's whereabouts 24/7 but he seems to feel that way about her. She said that he has greater expectations.

Clint says: [spoiler]I have these expectations because I love you.[/spoiler]

I put the above in spoiler mode because it's a really great line that you might want to hear for yourself before reading it.

The last scene was either an attempt at drama or a change in the direction of the Clint/Dorian relationship. Dorian says that she and Clint have come to a place in their relationship (which word she claims she does not like) and she's not really sure that they had ever talked about getting there or being there. And they both need to think about things. [spoiler]I can see why Clint needs to talk to someone about this, too bad it's Nora.[/spoiler]

No previews of Dorian or Clint. Nora was in one with Bo and Lindsay at St. Anne's. Nora is wearing the suit that she has on in the medianet pic with Clint in Dorian's kitchen. My guess is that Starr calls home when Langston gets taken by the social services' woman and that Dorian leaves Clint in the kitchen. Not sure how/why Nora gets there.

A phone call to Clint wasn't too much to ask. I am glad that Clint showed that he was concerned about her. It made a difference for me because it seemed in recent scenes that he was angry with her and that seemed off to me since Dorian doesn't routinely take him for granted or blow him off.

As for Dorian's reaction to him saying that he loves her, I'm not sure how to read it. It seems that she isn't prepared for that step and has cold feet. Maybe she is truly scared about that kind of intimacy after what happened with David.

Even still, it bothered me for Clint to be open about his feelings and Dorian to not be responsive to his feelings. I can see them taking a break from each other to think it over. They are at different points; however, I still feel that they care deeply for each other.

Dorian picked the fight and I'm not sure why. She is seeing his need to be closer to her as a need to control her.
