9O21O: Hate 2 Love Recap/Review


'Hate 2 Love' was the name of this week's '9O21O' and to tell you the truth, nothing really happened in this episode. At least, that's what I thought when the episode was over. We start with Silver coming to see Navid but she runs into Liam instead, who is helping set up the new night club. The duo catch up with each other for a couple of minutes and then they hug, which Navid isn't too happy about. I wish that Liam and Silver had just stayed friends and the writers never went down the relationship route. Anyway, Silver only had time to catch up with Liam so she runs out and leaves Navid and Liam to talk about Dixon. Navid still feels like Dixon isn't ready to preform yet but Liam stands his ground. What is wrong with Navid? Just let Dixon preform already, you're not his father! Meanwhile, Max holds a meeting between Alec and Naomi as he tries to get them to settle their differences but Naomi still has revenge on her mind. It seemed like Max wanted to break up with Naomi last week so I was surprised to see him so calm with Naomi like all was forgotten. Annie is having a date with Colin when Riley comes in looking for Dixon, I forgot all about Riley. On the CU campus Taylor and Navid are handing out flyers for the club opening when they run into Dixon, who runs into Megan. Every time I see Jessica Parker Kennedy it makes me miss 'The Secret Circle' so much. Megan leaves and Adrianna replaces her in a hurry, she's basically just there to remind Dixon that he has physical therapy to get to. Dixon doesn't want no woman reminding him what's happening in his life so he snaps at her for no reason. Liam then employs his professor through her firm to help him settle matters at the bar/club/whatever. Does Liam really think it's a good idea to employ the professor who already hates him?



Naomi plots her revenge on Alec with help from Silver. In this scene Naomi is doing karate, how long has she been practicing because this is the first time the show has ever featured her doing karate. While scheming Naomi finds Silver's feather boa sticking out of her bag. Silver tries to cover up the fact that she's now a burlesque dancer by saying that it's from Halloween, last year. As Naomi points out, Silver was a hot dog last year for Halloween but I was thinking why would Silver be carrying around a piece of her Halloween costume from last year? Either way, stupid lie and stupid writing. At the beach, Adrianna talks to Annie about her emotional and sexual problems concerning Dixon. An awkward subject for them to discuss. Then Liam starts having all this attitude with his professor, sure Liam just make her hate you more and more. Naomi carries out her plan when she sneaks into Alec's office and tries to log onto his computer but she doesn't know the password and Alec arrives to find her hiding behind some machinery. What exactly is Naomi's plan because so far it seems pretty stupid.


Naomi then tries to find comfort with Annie and Colin but they're on a date and Annie is not subtle about this but Naomi can't take a hint. So she starts to tell Annie and Colin all her problems and Colin offers to help. He believes that Alec has been hacking the GPS on Naomi's phone so Colin hacks Alec back. Colin is pretty handy for these girls. Naomi finds out that when Max and Madison were getting married, Alec was pressuring Madison to hire Naomi. At the burlesque club, Silver gets off her shift and I still don't buy Silver as a burlesque dancer, it's just not Silver. Dixon has his physical therapy session with Riley when he starts to feel some nerve pain. Riley says that he should get it checked by a doctor but Dixon is being stubborn. Annie enters to make everyone awkward, she makes Dixon so awkward that he leaves. When he does, she starts asking Riley if Dixon's junk still works and Riley starts talking about his own junk because he wants Annie to know. I don't care if Annie was just asking for Adrianna, it's kinda gross and creepy that she would ask Riley that about her brother. At the club, Navid hears Liam's phone go off, he picks it up and sees that there's a message from Silver so he decides to read it, that's so rude Navid. Naomi takes another stab at trying to take down Alec when she goes to see Madison. Naomi tells Madison about how annoying Alec is and Madison says that he acted the same way when she and Max were getting married. Is Alec gay? Is this what it's all about? Cause it seems like he just wants Max all to himself. Madison agrees to help Naomi because she's happy now and so on and so forth.

The club is then open for business when we come back and everyone is there, except Silver. Annie tells Adrianna everything Riley told her about sex, the whole Annie/Adrianna thing in this episode needs to stop. Speaking of Riley, he shows up and hangs out with Annie because Colin is busy at work and will show up later. I'm not a fan of the Riley/Annie relationship. On the other side of the dance floor, Lindsey (the professor lady) arrives to give Liam some documents he made her read. She doesn't want to stay but for someone that doesn't want to stay, she's really dressed up. Dixon is finally getting to perform at the club and Megan has come to support him, as they talk Dixon has nerve pains again but he powers through, he's such a strong solider. Megan leaves and Adrianna pops up again, this is starting to get scary. Adrianna actually does scare me, I can imagine her standing in my room late at night with pills in one hand and a knife in the other. Dixon's song starts and he really sucks, it's a little funny. Naomi's plan seems to be working when she gets Madison and Max in the same place but then Max is called off to work and Naomi must keep Madison away from Alec before he can stop her. Outside, Adrianna is feeling all kinds of sad so Taylor comforts her with his lips.

Navid congratulates Dixon after his set is over, so now he's Team Dixon? Ugh, just leave Navid! Colin finally shows his face and Annie leaves Riley all alone, poor Riley. Silver also shows up and when Navid starts talking to her she's like "Liam! Have you seen Liam?! I need to talk to Liam! NOT YOU! LIAM! YOU ARE NOT LIAM!" But Liam is too busy having sex with Lindsey, what? How did that happen? To tell you the truth, I don't know. It was the most unnatural sex scene ever, it was basically like 'oh, we hate each other, let's do it.' Meanwhile, Naomi and Madison are having a good time on the dance floor and Madison got crunked fast. Alec tries to sway Madison to take down Naomi instead but Noami gets so mad that she pushes Madison and she falls flat on her face. Riley is also mad but he's at Annie so he starts saying all these offensive things to Colin and he isn't wrong about any of them.


Some dude takes a video of Liam and Lindsey sexing it up but Navid finds out and takes his phone away. Navid and Dixon watch the sex tape because I guess they're lonely. A distressed Naomi says farewell to Madison who is injured from Naomi's push. Max returns to the party to tell them that his company has been hacked. I already blamed Colin for hacking the company and it turns out that it was him. Therefore, that was a predictable storyline. The episode ends there but what about Dixon's nerves? What the heck? I thought Dixon was going to have problems while performing or something, at least that's what it felt like they were building to but nope. That's just pathetic writing if you ask me. This week's episode wasn't as terrible as last week's but it was still awful and I'm really not sure what happened or why the writers thought it was important to include any of this. I'm obviously bitter at how this show sucks.

Overall episode score:-
'Hate 2 Love' = D
