"Hollyoaks" video clip update: The Pact

The truth is out in this highly entertaining (the best I've seen since this story started) clip from Hollyoaks as Kris, Ravi and Nancy try to decide what happens next in their relationship(s).

In addition to the trio drama, we also get Ravi's hot brother Ash and a cameo from cute knit-capped nerd Elliot!

Some random thoughts about this episode:

1. This was definitely the most enjoyable Hollyoaks in quite a while. It seems re-charged somehow.

2. Hotness runs in Ravi's family.

3. It was a hoot seeing Elliot (and his trademark cap) again.

4. Hannah gave a shoutout to John Paul! *Sniff* Please come back J.P.

Well, this is an interesting turn of events. The three are going to continue their relationships, but with everything out in the open. It'll be okay, because "this way, no one will get hurt." Ha!

I'm intrigued by what they're going to do with this. Will they be able to maintain their friendships while dealing with jealousy and resentment? For some reason I can hear the distant sound of a train whistle approaching. Could a horrific crash be coming? Let's hope so!

    Speechless

    I gotta say, of all the possible resolutions to this, the one I found least likely was them sitting down like grownups and discussing keeping it as a triad relationship.  I'd lose money on that bet.  But it's certainly the most interesting way to take the story, so let's hope that in the morning, they decide to try it.

    Yeah, I know it'll be a disaster, because, well, let's face it, it makes too much sense, but doesn't account for our stunted human emotions.

    Ravi needs to get the hell outta dodge.

    Ravi's brother Cash is so awesome.

    He so loves his little bro.

    Remember how he paid to save the radio show so that Kris could keep his job?  Without even a blink of an eye.

    I just don't understand how we got to this point of Ravi being the third wheel or the boys "sparring" for Nancy.

    Seriously?.

    Ravi and Kriss seemed to really be getting emotionally close in that episode where they were sitting with their legs intertwined at the radio show and also in the "night of beauty" episode.

    Kris seemd to be really getting into Ravi and I was excited about him having an actual "love" affair with a boy since he never has on the show.

     Then all of a sudden Kris is "in love" with shrewish, judegmental Nancy?  Makes no sense to me.  When did that happen?

    DOES MY HEAD IN (as the Brits would say)

    I do not like how Kris is treating Ravi at all.  Not one bit.

    He's sweet and caring and really digs Kris.

    Yeah, they were all playing around with each other but I think he's the only one who genuinely knows how he feels about the other two.

    Poor Ravi

    hannah...

    I hate the woman who plays hannah....but only because she is really pretty and i'm jealous.

    yeah, that was pretty random, but oh well. it's...sort of....on topic..since she was in the episode.  whatever

    "Who could possibly get hurt now?"

    You will, Ravi.  You will.

    I do like that they're trying to explore some kind of polyamorous relationship on television.  I have the feeling this storyline happened only because they couldn't get away with showing a threesome before 9pm.  But it looks like it's letting them explore some territory they wouldn't have thought of before.

    Elliot is adorable.  And played by an out actor (Garnon Davies) to boot!  

    I just hope they don't make this boring.

    Hilarous episode

    "You're secretly bisexual brother has been getting busy with Kris!" Gotta love Nancy's way with words.

     Loved Hannah's reference to JP and Craig.

     Ravi's brother is so hot!

    this ep made me like Russ a

    this ep made me like Russ a lot more and to the end Ravi

    well i'm glad they did this just cus it kinda was a logical solution. none of them is innocent/cheating anymore.

    Hannah looked way prettier with her hair shorter, by far

    Ravi's brother seems sweet and supportive ^.^
