This was such a fun episode. The girls in Puerto Rico were hilarious and Brooke doing her best to try and hide her pregnancy. The boys looking for the bird at the River Court was lovely too. And then Haey all on her own at Clothes over Bros bringing back Karen's Cafe. It's come full circle and it's just something so beautiful and nostalgic about the cafe being back.

this totally felt like it could've been a series finale if it had to be but the actual series finale that they did is, in my opinion, one of the best I've ever seen!!

THIS is what a fun episode looks like! Everyone had something to do, there were some great dynamics explored like Nathan and Julian, Alex and Brooke, Clay and anyone but Nathan lol. I thoroughly enjoyed every scene, from Clay talking about his chair, to the girls having fun and Brooke throwing the shots over her shoulder, to Millicent passing over the mic to Mouth. There wasn't a storyline that felt boring or out of place. And I liked how the camping linked in with what Mouth and Millicent were doing. I think that's what I miss most about the earlier seasons. When a majority of the characters plots somewhat link in with each other.
I didn't like the whole Millicent using Mouths ideas and I both respect and love her passing him the mic to finish it off because as you said there is no one better to talk about the rivercourt than Mouth (Not Nathan, not even Lucas). I may not be the biggest fan of his character but Mouth has been observing everything from the sidelines since literally the first episode, while the others were in the drama, for the most part Mouth watched it all unfold. So he was the perfect person for this. He has been much more likeable this season so I love that for him.
The girls trip was AMAZING. There were DEFINITELY strong lesbian vibes coming from Quinn and the supermodel. I always thought Quinn could be bi so this episode kinda solidified that the writers also thought that. The longing stares, flirty lines, you can't tell me they didn't hook up in that bed on the beach. Brooke and Alex were so cute this episode and my only complaint would be that I wanted more of them, especially from this season as a whole, I was hoping after all their drama last season they could've been closer but I know realistically that probably wouldn't be the case. Lauren was hilarious (she was giving me Cayetana from the elite short story vibes) a character I didn't really like or care for from before, coming in and stealing the episode with her intoxicated humour. She also definitely hooked up with the model and you can't tell me otherwise (that model was extremely busy 😂)
Loved the guys hanging out, Nathan and Julian's friendship is the best thing to come out of season 8, they're so similar in so many ways and I wish the show would point that out more. Clay, his chair and his complete hate for the outdoors was so me so I HEAVILY related to that. The Chuck and Chase moments were so freaking cute. I adore Chuck so much and I feel so bad for him having a terrible father, now Chase leaving he must feel so worried. That scene of him talking about his dad actually made me tear up.
Loved this episode, excited for the next one and super excited for season 9!!

I feel awful for Chuck. In a weird way, he reminds me of Nathan from early S1... Lashing out due to what's going on at home. It's really sad that a kid so young already has such bad abandonment issues... I'm so glad Chase was able to assure him that he's not leaving for good and that he'll be back. And that Chuck really opened up to him about his Dad and what happened, and then Chase getting him a bike. I just love their bond so much! I have a thing for surrogate family storylines, so they just make me really happy. I also love how although Chase told Chuck off about the driving thing, he didn't lose it on him. He told him why what he did was wrong, that he could've hurt himself or others, told him it was stupid and dangerous, but was still willing to listen to his reasoning and take into account his feelings about what's going on. (I also love how during the whole thing of Chuck driving it, Chase immediately ran to him, and Clay immediately ran to get Jamie out of the way. I just love the instincts...)
I am so glad Millie had Mouth do the story. He really deserved that, and like you said, it wouldn't be the same coming from anyone else. But like, Mouth has been so supportive of her through this, and he wouldn't have been resentful if she'd done the story herself, but it was just such a nice moment where she introduced him instead and gave him the mic...
And his speech. So good! I love that little moment where he looks over to Nathan and talks about lost kids finding their way there and becoming better people. I just love the acknowledgement of his growth so much! (And Brooke's...) And I also love their friendship. It's so unexpected, but so sweet. :)
His scene at the start of the episode is so sad though, where he's just sat there and we hear his younger self doing his commentary with Jimmy. Mouth is always gonna feel guilt over Jimmy, and he's always gonna miss him. It's so sad... :(
Brooke trying to hide her pregnancy was hilarious! Love that Quinn caught on. I mean, it's not like she was being discreet...
Julian telling Nathan, and Brooke telling Haley. Such good scenes! And I love that Julian wants his kid to be best friends with Lydia, that's so cute! I want that too! <333
Oh, Lauren... She's honestly adorable... She's so small too! She just gets me every time, how she gets super drunk and her moment of getting locked outside in her underwear...
And don't worry, I always get those vibes with Quinn and that Model too... And I don't see gay everywhere I look... Hahaha they were definitely flirting... :)
Honestly, I'd rather the camping trip to a resort. Quiet, nature, sitting around a fire with friends. That's my perfect night! :)

I had a question regarding your youtube channel. Is there any way you could change the playlists so that the most recent episodes that you post are the first you see? It's not that big of a deal but I know for shows like the Fosters where you posted the first episode like 3 years ago, you'd have to scroll down to find the playlist as opposed to it updating to the top of the list each time you post a new video

Parenthood is truly one of the best things in this show. Starting with the amazing dad Nathan was and is with Jamie and now with other characters having kids and seeing them be better than the notoriously terrible Tree Hill parents of the earlier seasons is so nice to see. That last scene with Nathan and Jamie gets me every time.

I liked the change of setting for this episode with the girl's trip. It was a change of pace.

Brooke and Alex were not commenting "omg" because they were making fun of the model. They were saying "omg" b/c they were surprised at how beautiful she was because Brooke says that a lot of the models that modeled for Clothes over bro's were strange looking (I'm guessing that they mean some models are strange looking because they are so tall yet so skinny?)

I loved Haley's face, exclamation of "are you serious?", and happiness for Brooke when she told her that she was pregnant. I love it because Haley knows how long Brooke has wanted this and struggled with it. Love their friendship!
