Ahhh... little one in bed and I get to log on and catch up on the goings on in Laramie.

SPOILER


So, Bill's after some sympathy attention from Ellery. It a very manipulative thing to do, and cruel. I'm really glad that Ennis dealt with Ellery's reaction so well. It might have ben very different in their early days. I also like the way that Ennis is opening little by little in front of people he likes and trusts, like Lauren.

Now, this Jeves character - he be well advised to keep away from Ennis - but we all know that's not going to happen don't we? Don't we??

I don't think it matters a bit.   Ennis not only will not be impressed by Jeeves, he won't even figure into Ennis' mindset unless he turns out to be a stand up guy that Ennis thinks is okay.  Putting on airs or making eyes at Ennis won't do it---been tried before. LOL
I don't think Chas is really interested anyway, I think he is just watching the waters.
AFter all, no one  would turn down Ennis if they had a chance!!

Just a reminder of what Jeremy Dupree looks like.     ;)

Well,  Dupree may admit that he is not straight 100% of the time, but I still can't see him being attracted to Chaz (Jeeves).     Perhaps he just likes the attention?     

I still think a rough and tumble guy like Jeremy would prefer the strong silent type.  As far as Ellerys curiousity?     I think that it is natural for him to be curious about a friend and coworkers sudden interest like that.   But Dupree is 100% correct in telling Ellery that it is none of his business. 

Either way, if Dupree is not interested in Chaz in a sexual/romantic way, then he is indeed leading the guy on.    But perhaps Dupree is fooling around with him to expirament?    Better him  (Chaz) than one of the local bar regulars right?   Now I am really confused!    LOL
