So Chloe (predictably) has been advising Ned to reach out to Alexis. I think Chloe is unqualified to give anyone relationship advice-- perhaps even advice on anything shy of how to suck-up broadcast time with nauseating and puerile games and platitudes. Unfortunately, her advice is aimed at a particularly dull receptacle--Ned-- so he probably won't know the difference. However, I think she and Ned are perfect for one another. Think about it: they both cling to the Q family structure of arrogant hypocrisy, even as they play lip service to not wanting to be involved in their dysfunctions. They both still defend these distorted family interests, with a one-sidedness and nepotistic delusion which belies all their claims to autonomy. They have both attached themselves to, and sucked the life out of, two great characters. Jax became a nurse-maid to Chloe the tumor-victim, and Alexis played groupie to Ned's so-called music career. And both Ned and Chloe betrayed/threw hissy fits at their partners when they perceived Jax's/Alexis' interests as coming into conflict with the pursuits of all-mighty Q's. Chloe is stupid fluff and Ned grows stupid fluff on his chin. Yep, an ideal match, really-- two people who truly deserve each other. I could get into ChloNed--a re-incarnation of their first marriage-- especially if it involved a VERY LONG UNBROADCASTED honeymoon elsewhere in the world. |
