Six Feet Under recap

If this were a Friends episode it would be called The One Where Everyone Got Laid (and/or Experimented With Their Sexuality).

We'll start off with the domesticized Brenda and Joe. Brenda recently confessed to cheating on Joe but they decided to stay together, because it's always easier to stay together when you live together. Who feels like moving again? Or dealing with the "who gets what" debacle? No one. Until that is, one of you walks in on the other having sex with an ex on your couch. In your living room. Well, I guess Brenda gets to keep the couch, we'll see who gets the rest of the new house next episode. These two are over, which is a shame - we liked Joe, but we admit to liking the tortured relationship that Nate and Brenda had (and may have again) even more.

Nate, having been the ex on the couch, is about to have a breakdown next episode since he clearly has not dealt with the dead wife issue as of yet. Brenda's therapeutic advice can be dispensed fully to Nate now that Joe is out of the picture. They can now transcend the "sexual on the couch" and move onto the more Freudian meaning of on the couch.

George killed Ruth's favorite tree. It was metaphoric, or something. Our predicition is that after he sleeps with one of Claire's free spirited art student friends he'll be cast out of the Fisher home forever.

Claire, having done the lesbian thing with Edie for two episodes, decided that she isn't a lesbian. And believe us, she's pissed. Claire is one of our favorite characters on the show, perhaps because of our close relation in age, so we're psyched to see what's up for her next. Apparently, Edie doesn't want to see her again so it may be time to say goodbye to the underfed, emaciated Mena Suvari character.

David, get help! Please!
Not one to ignore his lovers actual calls for help, Keith is on the way back from the Celeste tour. But not before he has straight sex with Celeste herself. Wha? Keith, she's not even 18! And she's a girrrrrl!

Rico, Rico, Rico. Stop blaming everyone else for your problems! Wait, are those tears in your eyes? Okay, we're suckers, we still like you, it's okay. Just figure your shit out and don't talk to strippers anymore. Also, hide your car, we hear Vanessa and her sister are quite handy with a baseball bat.

    Actually, Celeste is 21 - as she jumped on top of Keith, she admitted the not-yet-18 thing was only a publicity stunt.

    Vanessa's sister redeemed herself for all previous scenes. The vaseline part was priceless.
