Ep. 119: The City (Season 1) | Ep 19. 'Weekend At Freddie's' recap and photos


The episode opens on Whitney and Roxy in the park sunbathing. Whitney reveals that Freddie has invited them to the Hamptons. Roxy is excited but her face falls when she hears that Samantha will be coming too. "I feel like she's competing for you."
Whitney dismisses the idea, saying that she thinks Roxy and Samantha just need more quality time together. Harry is also going to be there, prompting Whitney to observe, "That's an interesting dymanic right there!".

At City View Racquet Club, Freddie asks Whitney to go easy on him before turning the conversation to the weekend. Whitney hopes that Sam and Roxy get along as "it would suck if they didn't".
Freddie tells her that Harry is fitting the trip in between school and Nantucket. Whitney is excited about seeing him.

Joe Zee meets up with Erin and Olivia in the Meatpacking District to discuss Elle's personal style issue. They will be covering the style of the people who write about style, namely bloggers. Olivia is tasked with drawing out the bloggers' personalities via short Q and A sessions.

In the car on the way to the Hamptons, Roxy, Samantha and Whitney are discusing Harry and Freddie. Roxy asks why Samantha never got together with Freddie. Samantha doesn't know.
Roxy asks what the craziest thing Samantha has ever done is. Samantha struggles for an answer so Whitney tells Roxy to go first. Roxy tells the girls that she got drunk with her best friend and ended up getting a tattoo on her crotch.

'Heartbreaker' by Mariah Carey comes on the radio and the girls dance. Roxy stands with her upper body out of the sunroof blowing kisses at the other drivers.

The girls arrive and Roxy announces that the guys "look like identical twins". The group drink wine and discuss their plans for the evening. Roxy asks, "Are you guys ready to show us a good time?", before bringing up the matter of sleeping arrangements. Harry replies vaguely, "Wherever we end up".

At Milk Studios Olivia is interviewing the style bloggers about accessories. Erin is keeping a close eye on the proceedings and observes to Julia (the photoshoot co-ordinator), "That's it? I think we're in trouble."

After briefly interviewing the bloggers, Olivia announces to Erin that she is leaving and walks out. Erin decides that Olivia's questions simply weren't good enough and she will need to re-interview the bloggers herself.
Whitney and Roxy are applying their makeup and discussing why Roxy is still unable to make friends with Samantha. Samantha is in the kitchen with the boys and confesses that she thinks Roxy has been trying to provoke her.

The group head off to Lily Pond where Harry flirts heavily with Whitney, eventually kissing her. Freddie looks on jealously before telling Harry to "stop dancing with my girl!". Harry retaliates by telling Whitney that Freddie has a girlfriend. Whitney is stunned - "I want to die right now".

The next day Whitney and Roxy are discussing Harry's revelation. Roxy tells Whitney "he probably does this all the time" and decides they ought to call Freddie's girlfriend to let her know what's been going on.

In Manhattan, Joe summons Olivia and Erin to his office. Joe asks how the photoshoot went and what questions Olivia asked her. Olivia fumbles with her question sheets while Erin folds her arms and rolls her eyes.

Joe feels that the answers were lacklustre and they will require follow-up interviews. Erin announces that that won't be necessary as she interviewed the bloggers after Olivia left. Olivia looks horrified.

Erin points out she shouldn't have to stay and do Olivia's job for her. There is an awkward pause before Joe tells Olivia that she is there because he believes in her so not to disappoint him.

In the Hamptons, the girls meet the guys by the pool. Roxy isn't speaking to Freddie so Whitney tells him that Harry told her about his girlfriend.
Freddie confesses that he doesn't want Harry to hook up with Whitney but Roxy points out that if he has a girlfriend he can't put a claim on Whitney.

She goes on to say that "Whitney doesn't always stand up for herself so I want to make sure that whoever she's with is treating her good". Whitney protests that she doesn't need a mouthpiece.

Freddie acknowledges that he should have told them about his girlfriend. The girls agree and leave Freddie and Harry to head back to the city.
