Well, well, well.
Gossip Girl’s much-discussed threesome went down last night and — scandalous! — it was between a trio of college kids. All that fiery brimstone blahblahblah by the PTC (the Puritans Terror Campaign?) and the world has yet to be plunged into Satan’s gaping maw, much less paralyzing shock at the Dan-Vanessa-Olivia mashup. Maybe that’s because this is what college students do! They get hammered. They test boundaries. They experiment. College is supposed to be the Olympics of Bad Decisions and this trio made one that oodles of other sexually curious youngin’s have since before Skinemax After Dark set them to soft-core synth pop. And while we saw the situation developing as soon as D & V decided to give Liv the “full college experience” of boozing it up all over campus, what we didn’t call was how un-sordid it would all play out. A few girl-girl kisses, a priceless look on Dan’s face and then fade to black. The only way we know things went any further was the final shot of them sleeping in the same bed, under covers and un-entwined. There was more skin on
Dancing With the Stars! Of course, it’s all about the emotional fallout of the hookup and from the looks of it, next week will find this band of buds torn apart by their tryst. Which, given Vanessa’s long-time crush on Dan, will most likely generate more heat than this rather tame—but still pretty realistic—turn of events.
Were you traumatized by the threeway?
