Revenge is finally back. The last time we saw Ben and Emily — they were about about to get busy. Jack saw them making out which made him sad. A new resident of The Hamptons showed up (Gina Torres‘ Natalie). Louise and Nolan got married and Margaux was on the warpath.
In “Bait,” a big bombshell dropped. Here’s what we know:
- This Ben and Emily thing doesn’t work for me at all. Poor Jack! (How many times do I type that?)
- There is a new supercouple: Louise and Nolan. Or should we call them Loulan or Noise? It’s not Bennifer but at least we have choices.

- We find out Victoria’s father-in-law has passed away and Victoria thinks she is getting money from him. But Victoria gets the surprise of her life when her new “friend†Natalie is actually the newest wife of the Senior Grayson. Victoria gets some dogs and Natalie gets everything else. Nice twist/bombshell, Revenge.

- Margaux gets the FBI involved when she realizes her computer has been hacked. Is she turning into the new Victoria? She is determined to destroy Emily. Wasn’t she in the hospital and they told her no stress?
- Jack goes to see Emily to tell her about his feelings but instead finds out about the video Margaux has and totally freaks out. When is poor Jack going to get a break?
- Louise’s brother, Lyman (what a name!) hasn’t left town and is determined to get money from Louise. You have to give it to him. He is persistent.

- Natalie “accidentally†meets David Clarke at a bar. She offers him Grandpa Grayson’s boat and all she wants is a drink. Maybe Natalie is the new Victoria? But let’s be honest, Victoria is the new Victoria.
- Jack tries to talk to Margaux. But she knows she is being played and thinks she has outsmarted him.
- Lyman overhears Victoria and a lawyer talking about contesting the Grayson will. He knows when to use an opportunity and says he will be her lawyer. Victoria makes him prove it. Well, Lyman finds out that not only was Natalie stripped of her nursing license, she has swindled money from others. Victoria is a happy gal.
- Victoria is in the restaurant when Natalie is served with papers. Â Even though Natalie gives this whole speech about how she really did love Grayson, Victoria knows that she is falling right into her trap.
- Margaux is obsessed with getting Emily.  She has the FBI ready because she thinks that they are going catch Emily in the act but surprise it’s Louise and Emily and Nolan are steps ahead of her.
- I love how Emily and Margaux declare war on each other in a special way.
- This part isn’t news: Jack declares his love for Emily. He tells her, “It’s always been you.† Emily rejects him. Why? What is wrong with her? Jack tells her that he is not waiting around. Does he mean this because how many Poor Jacks do we have left?

- Margaux blackmails Ben. So something went down with his ex-wife and he is willing to do anything to not let that get out. Did he beat her? Is she crazy? We know she is going to show up at some point.
- Now I get why the Ben and Emily thing is necessary. That doesn’t mean I have to like it.
Will Victoria win her contention against Natalie? Will David figure out that Natalie is bad news? Will Emily get over herself and let Jack be with her? What secret is Ben carrying about his ex-wife? See you next time.
Revenge airs Sundays on ABC at 10/9c.

POOR JACK. 😉 Indeed. If they go to S5, Jack needs to find a keeper relationship because “life is messy” was the lamest excuse ever. I think we’ll only see them together if TPTB have a heads up on a cancellation or they decide to finish the show on their own terms.
