We're on Episode 3 now, and still no news on the other 4 victims of John Wakefield. We know that Abby and Kelly's moms were both killed by him, but I'm wondering who the other victims were and if that will play into who the current murderer is.
But on to the recap!
We open with a pool party, and when you have a bunch of pretty people, you know you got to get them in swimsuits eventually. It's like a law in the tv-world.
Richard and Henry are having a nice conversation. Richard being Trish's sister, Shea's, husband. They're being little voyeurs, watching Mr and Mrs Wellington. Henry asks him about the Wellington lifestyle, but we all know that Richard loves the status of it all, even if he thinks his father-in-law is a little on the shady side.
Ooooh! Check it out! Skeet shooting! Maybe that's how the "Ka-Blam" will but put into play? Rich people really do love their skeet shooting, don't they?
Hmmm.... the secret note from a manservant. Curious...
And for once, we see Trish without her pearls. I guess that means no sex for her.
Henry's not too bad with the shotgun. That will probably work in his favor. But Tom wins and he and Katherine saunter off.
On to Kelly's autopsy. And there's our favorite demon hunting Sheriff! It appears that Kelly has a tattoo saying, "John Wakefield, John Wakefield, Come back for me." That's odd. And Sheriff seems to think Kelly didn't commit suidide. Ok, I watch enough CSI, ER, Bones, etc to know that strangulation causes hemmorhaging in the eyes, but I don't think it gives you straight up devil eyes.
Oh man, again with the needle in the eye? What's up with the doctor-on-eyeball violence, lately? First Bones, and now HI!
Mmmmmm... mimosas!
HeeHee! Howler monkey sex! And only a Brit would wear a VEST to the pool. Also, note to Sully. Saying "My bad" does not get you off the hook for leaving a dude swinging upside down from a freakin' tree. You could at least have sent an e-card.
We now know that the note says, "Hunter Jennings is at the Pines Motel" and it's written on stationery from The Candlewick Inn. I don't know about you, but it looks like girly handwriting to me. So my money is on Shea or Katherine.
Wonder why Abby is keeping things from her dad? I get that they're estranged, but shouldn't she let him know that JD and Kelly were sleeping together? Or that Kelly was really happy the last time she saw her and invited her to come live in LA.
Hunter is such a skeeze. Good on Trish for the slap! But now Hunter knows that Mr Wellington is lying to Trish and I'm sure he'll be working that angle.
Dude, JD needs some sun. The only way he could be any pastier would be if his name was Elmer.
"That's weird" is not how someone normal would react to that news. But I still think the writers are trying too hard to make JD look guilty. I think he's just 4 beers short of a 6 pack.
Dirty, Dirty! Looks like Step-mom is sleeping with her step-son-in-law.
**Ok, why is no one missing Lucy, yet?**
Well, I was right, it was a chick who left the note for Henry, but it was Ruth, not a main character. And Henry is off for a bit of sleuthing. And he finds a receipt for an airline ticket. Berlin-New York-Seattle. Wonder what Hunter was doing in Berlin? It was paid for by Mr Wellington. So looks like Henry is suspicious now.
Honey and herb rub. Sounds tasty! Here's hoping Chloe is working on some revenge against Sully! I'm thinking, tied to an ant hill.
HAHAHAHAHA! He got feathered! Too funny! Pooh Bear in the honey pot!
Now THAT'S gonna leave a mark. But is JD dead or just stunned?
I'm glad that Abby is coming clean with her dad. Even tho' it's turning into an argument. But that's par for course with them, isn't it?
At least Shane is acting remorseful for being an ass. And he truly seems saddened by the death of his ex. Ooooooooooh! Shane has JD in his trunk. So, not dead. Yet.
Nikki thinks John Wakefield is responsible for Kelly's death. Anyone else think that Shane had been messing with Kelly? Pretending to be Wakefield. Maybe as revenge for the breakup? Shane def has that wife-beater vibe, so no shock that he was wailing on Kelly.
Hunter wants 50 grand to leave town. Or else, he's going to rat out Mr Wellington to Trish. And now, Trish has recieved a secret note of her own that reads, "Let's make this work. Room 214. Hunter." Anyone else think that Henry is trying to test his bride-to-be?
The people on this island need to enact a Buddy System. Seriously, wandering off on your own is not ending well for anyone.
Good on Trish! And I told ya it was Henry! :o)
Oh, for the love of Pete, don't walk into creepy, shadowy sheds unless you're heavily armed.
Wow! Shane was really going to go through with killing JD if Abby hadn't shown up!
Oh, like someone like Shane would really use a word like "daft".
HeeHee! Shiny Sully! "Totally my bad." Go Cal!
Anyone else see a boat explosion in Hunter's future? Ooh. Mr Wellington paid up. For some reason, I thought he wouldn't.
Check it. It's Uncle Marty's money and his gun on Hunter's boat.
WHOA!!!!!!
Didn't see that coming! And there's our Ka-Blam for the episode!
Why put ink in someone's eyes? But that pic of the Sheriff with red eyes doesn't look good for him.
Not big on the murders this time around, but still a great ep!

Harper's Island. E2: Crackle
Ok, before the ep even starts, I'm so wondering how they're going to work in CRACKLE! I mean, supposed, each ep title is the sound of how a victim dies. For instance, Whap was from the whap-whap of the the rotor blade on the boat (poor Cousin Ben, we hardly knew ya). I'm kinda thinking that someone may die in a fire!
So it looks like the timeline is starting up the morning after. Doubtful anyone knows that Uncle Marty is dead. Altho, you'd think someone would've heard the shots.
Oh no! Run Bambi! Whew!
And you know, for being the main character, I'm not a fan of Abby. I don't think she's too great an actress.
Was that a missing boat oar? hmmm... could be kindling!
Ok... that's disturbing. And a really quick kill, too. Good thing they only wrote PSYCHO and not DERANGED LUNATIC. b/c they would've totally been caught in the act.
And bloody hands on brother JD. Interesting... It looks pretty likely that he was the one who killed the deer. I mean, he's already had words with Shane.
Ok, if someone forced me to do a scavenger hunt... well, let's just say that I'd be taking advantage of the open bar!
Oh, I see! THAT'S why they sent everyone off on some lame ass scavenger hunt. For some chocolate flavored kisses! (Trish must have pearls of horniness.)
WTF? Who sets a priest trap? And, um, ow.
Ok... Creepy Kelly has some dead eyes. Something's not quite right there. And not just the whole 'my mom was murdered' deal, something else.
And Shane's a dick. Maybe he'll die next?
Cal, considering he's a Brit, should really be able to hold his alcohol way better. And he has stupid hair.
Shane and Jimmy are so gonna kick JD's ass. You know that they think it was him.
Chloe is such a little ho. And her death obsession is a bit out of hand.
OMG, stalk much, Kelly? She's a bit overbearing. And anyone who asks to live with you moments after meeting you (no matter that you knew each other 7 yrs ago) is so off the rails.
BONFIRE! Told ya! Someone is so gonna become a crispy critter!
Oh no! CAL!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is why I don't go walking in the woods. Well, that and the fact that I'm not very nature-compatible. I only like the outdoors in-so-far as how close I am to a real live toilet.
Another deer? What's up with that weirdness? And do you know how heavy those bad boys are? No way is a little chick doing that heavy lifting.
Oh, that asshole is NOT gonna leave Cal hanging! Bad, Sully, Bad!
Mr Wellington is so not cool. You know that somehow, Trish is going to find out that he's the one who brought Hunter in to break up the wedding and she's gonna go a bit ballistic.
Kelly and JD are just freaks in love. And getting freaky.
Noooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Was that Kelly strung up in the rafters?
Damn commercial break! Guess I'll find out in 2 & 2. (Wow! totally random Love Connection reference!)
Oh. Interesting way to prevent anyone questioning Uncle Marty's whereabouts.
And poor Kelly. :(
Methinks GiGi is gonna find someone's remains. That is what dog's do. Or, they lead you to a huge trap. Not holding out big hopes for Lucy's survival.
And WHOOSH! Up in flames she go!
I say "yay me" for guessing the method!
And now it's off to guess the victim for next week!
I'm betting on JD. Just b/c he looks too guilty.

Harper's Island. E1: Whap
There are spoilers as I will be recapping the episodes week by week here.
So, WHAP! You've been warned.
Nice! The show just started and I gotta say, Cousin Ben's death was pretty damn cool!
I am enjoying seeing Christopher Gorham, forever Jake 2.0 to me. :) And it's always fun to see Harry Hamlin. He was great on Veronica Mars! Just realized who Chloe is. She's Cameron Richardson, Paula from the late-great Point Pleasant. A wonderfully creepy little show that never had a chance by Marti Noxon from Buffy fame. And oddly Mr Wellington (Richard Burgi) was also on Point Pleasant.
Love the guys calling Uncle Marty a "superhero"! haha! When does Harry Hamlin NOT play the snarky, horny older man?
Ok, right now, I call Hunter as the next victim. Smooching on a bride-to-be never ends well. That ranks up there with having sex when you're supposed to babysitting.
So far, I'm liking how they're introducing characters. Since there's new people coming to the island, locals, and returning townsfolk, it makes for an easy meet-&-greet for the viewer.
Just got the link to http://www.harpersglobe.com/
That should be a fun site to augment the show!
Oh, look! It's Bobby! (I'm just a huge dorky fan of Supernatural.)
Anyone else creeped out by Madison? If she turns out to the be the killer, I'm gonna need therapy.
Brits never has a sense of humor. But I kinda feel bad for the guy. All he wants to do is propose to the little hootchie.
Oh, who has sex with their pearls on? (Now I'm thinking of a really dirty "pearl necklace" joke!)
No Freakin Way! Harry Hamlin dies in the first ep??? I did NOT see that coming!
Ok, I'm sucked in. This show is pretty damn cool!
