I've said it before and I'll say it again (in re: Jonas): he COULD choose to help Bree and Daniel another way. Jonas could, say, meet Andrea or Paul and give them some cash. Andrea and Paul could then speak with Daniel and Bree and arrange a place to leave the cash for Daniel and Bree to pick up. Jonas wouldn't know where the drop was, so Daniel and Bree wouldn't have to worry about the order. If Jonas is loaded and wants to help, then he shouldn't mind doing this as a gesture of trust.

What say you all? Jonas apparently reads these forums...so, Jonas: Put up or shut up.

Who keeps doors closed? I do -- makes the heating bill lower to block off the vents and keep the doors closed to unused rooms. If they're unused bedrooms, why not?

Also, from a meta-perspective -- there's not much budget. They're using actual people's houses, not sets. I think I'd be okay to agree to let someone use my living room for something like that, but you want to use my bedroom or office and I've got some seeeeerious cleaning to do. (I have three dogs and a husband who hasn't quite figured out that clothes do not, in fact, live on the floor. Nuff said.) So if Jonas' director is using, say, his own house? Methinks a wife or other homeowner may have said, "OH, I DON'T THINK SO..." to letting cameras and the whole of the intarweb into her other rooms. (Nor, I'm assuming, is that house as cavernous as a mansion should be -- some of those doors may have been closets that they're trying to get you to -believe- are bedrooms. Again, a meta-note, not plot related.)

As far as Jonas being a little too vulnerable, the kid lost his parents and his nanny abandoned him at 18. I'm surprised he's not blown through his inheritance just on *therapy*.

A little more-than-normal vulnerability might not be out of the question.

And are those buildings or trees out the window at the end of the hall?

missviolet: that's what I was saying, they could very well have edited it so that once he OPENS a door, it cuts or something he could be like...let's go upstairs [CUT TO HIM IN A ROOM] and they definitely didn't do that...that way they wouldn't have EVER used any one person's whole house...

bwahahah!

one barren hallway does NOT equal a giant mansion. that shit looked like the hallway in my old apartment - those doors could easily be closets, bathrooms, trap doors to keep young girls in for secret ceremonies, etc.

what does gemma think of jonas? i want to hear her opinion. hopefully sans any mention of her "horrid flatmates."

and trainer, you are so definitely right about him having an ulterior motive. even the hardcore fans, if we believed this was real, would never invite that kind of danger into our homes. something must make him immune to it - something like membership in the order!

Why does a nanny who is a grandma have to be old and wrinkled. I am 40 and the grandmother of 2 with another grandchild on the way. I am neither old or wrinkled.

massive ramble to follow.

WORST TOUR EVER!!!

-this was not a tour... this was your face with various backdrops... and not interesting ones, at that.

-I give him credit for being Lonelyboy... and wanting some pseudo-siblings. I mean... if the kid lost his parents (i still think it's dumb tat he says dissapeared rather than lost...) i can understand why he would want some live-in friends. Hell, when I was in high school and my parents went on vacation for a couple of weeks, one of my friends moved in with me.
but yes, I also agree that the house was far too bare. As stated above, when my friend stayed with me during those two weeks, we almost set the house on fire, my dad's shoes got thrown over a telephone wire by my step-brother's friends, there were beer cans everywhere. But I digress.

But, after living alone for so long... what else do you have to do but clean? I bet some time three years ago, jonas was so bored he decided to clean the mansion, and it stayed that way until now.

either that or he had to wash down and re-paint after the massacres that took place.

-Jonas is evil. But, as much as I wish it would happen, I can't see there being any real awesome revelation as to his evilness, because twelve year olds watch the show. right?

-I didn't think the 'hood where bree and daniel were looked very threatening or dangerous. It actually seemed kinda cozy for a hobo hangout.
And they've got that cat incase of rats.

-I think Jonas says "can I call you Mr. Beast" out of respect. he knows that Daniel is the mature one, the adult, if you will, and he also knows that he doesn't like him.
He's trying to win him over, and is trying to say "hey, I get that you're the boss here."

and lastly, 10/12 will be the day they finally go to Jonas' house. prolly.

/ramble.

"I never had brothers and sisters..." Riiiiiiiight.

Daniel, Bree, Jonas:Xander, Buffy, Angel

Anyone remember the excellent Xander/Angel tension?

Angel: "If I decide to walk into Buffy's room, do you think for one microsecond that you could stop me?"
Xander: "Maybe not. Maybe that security guard couldn't either. Or those cops... or the orderlies... But I'm kinda curious to find out. You game?"
Angel: "Buffy's white knight. You still love her. It must just eat you up that I got there first."
Xander: "You're gonna die. And I'm gonna be there."

Thanks Holls!

And another thing, we get it! They are desperate enough to turn to a stranger. We all know this thing with Jonas was going down as soon as he said I live alone in a huge house so lets get there. I have a feeling the next vid will be Gemma acknowledging that they are desperate and so she tried to research Jonas' story and from what she could find it checks out.
