I liked this episode - a lot in fact - due to the way they told the story this week. Having the advantage of starting at New Year's, the writers were able to tell a complete year's worth of stories in one episode. We actually got to see the changes and events everyone went through, instead of them just being alluded to in a completely boring manner. And although we've seen her before, we're really getting a new "villain" with crazy-ass Rebecca. She's starting to go a little Fatal Attraction on the Brewster clan. On with the show!

Last night's episode started at New Year's 1994, and shortly after the countdown celebration, Craig made an announcement to all those in attendance, that he was going to run for the office of State Assemblyman. Running for public office, good thing he doesn't have any skeletons in his closet. Wait... Also at the party, was a Pascale-less Aaron. He claimed she went back to France to see her family, but later admits to Carla that she left for good. He then started the whole horrible cycle of jumping back to Carla everytime he needs a support. This time however, Carla had someone else in her life, and she turned Aaron down. Months after they'd been together, when Carla's significant other, Peter, asked her to move with him to Chicago, she freaked out and dumped him.

When news of his affair broke during the campaign trail, Craig's campaign manager quit and Craig asked Will to step in. Throughout the entire process, Will managed to keep Sam and Craig sane, while defending off Rebecca's personal attacks. Craig won despite the controversy, mostly because of the support that Sam showed him during the election. In other unsurprising moves, Aaron had gone back to Pascale and they were preparing for the birth of their second child. Carla, once more burned by Aaron, met up with Paul, her boyfriend from earlier in the year, at their New Year's Eve celebration. They immediately rekindled their flame, too bad we know he's dead now.

I'm going to be very disappointed if Fox doesn't at least give Reunion the chance to come to some kind of conclusion. It hasn't been the best drama that's out there on tv, *cough*Lost*cough*, but it's been fun at the very least. We only have five epiosdes left, taking us up until the millenium on the show. So, let's party like it's 1999.
