Dear Nancy,
Poor you, you can’t keep those two naughty boys of yours under control! We’ve got Silas seducing that cougar on the counter-top at her cheese shop and Shane hitting that boy in the face with a lunch tray.
Of course I’d have to say that Shane assaulting someone might be one of his less disturbing activities on this season of Weeds. After all, we did catch him whacking off to old naked pictures of you bringing that whole Oedipus thing to mind. And this week, while you were off with your sexy drug king pin/Mayor of Tijuana boyfriend, he was having a THREESOME. Yes, a threesome, with two wannabe goth chicks from his school. They were so inexperienced that they were looking up positions on the computer. You actually expected Silas to babysit him and keep a keen eye out for foul play? Tsk-tsk.
I know you tried to have a talk with both of them about their behavior before, but two teenage boys are going to need a little more structure than a lecture once in a blue moon from you or Uncle Andy. Silas may be too far gone at this point, but you can still get a hold of Shane. Bottom line is, if he has to look up how to have sex on the internet, he’s not ready and he’s too young. Come on Nanc, you know better, even in your short skirted, over caffeinated little world. Your boy needs discipline.
Love,
The Frisky

I’m totally hating everyone on the show this season, except for Silas and Andy. I’m even considering getting I Hate Nancy T-shirts made. She is such an absent and selfish mom. I also think the show has lost it’s premise. Instead of being a dealer to support her fam, Nancy just makes bad decision after bad decision. And she should just learn to ignore the hole in the floor if she can’t handle what might pop out of it. I’m so over this show. I just keep watching because I’m waiting for something really horrible to happen to her so she can learn a lesson finally.

So, is this a preview of next week’s episode? Because I totally missed this part. I didn’t know that it was confirmed that Shane had sex with the girls.
I miss Conrad and Heylia, and I’m reallllllly tired of Celia’s mess this season. I’m still interested in the Botwin family, but I agree, Nancy is the worst mother ever and she doesn’t seem to learn from her mistakes.

@Lucy I miss Conrad also. He seemed like the only guy that could make Nancy see the right way. I feel like this season is really disconnected from last season.

@Lucy They didn’t show Shane and the girls getting into it, but I assumed they did b/c at the end they each were sleeping in bed with their pants off.
