Season Two - Finale

In case you missed the Season Two finale of The OC, I will give you a quick little re-cap. Caleb Cohen passed away in the previous episode, so it was only logical that the finale included Cal's funeral. All the usuals, both past and present were at the funeral. Hailey came back from Japan and Jimmy sailed in from Hawaii. Lindsay did not come back from Chicago, but I wasn't too surprised.

Over the past few episodes Kirsten's drinking has increased and caused more problems. After Caleb's death, she really went off the deep end and in the finale the family had an intervention and shipped her off to a resort-like rehab center.

With Cal out of the picture, Julie Cooper-Nichol is newly single again and seems to be getting along quite well with ex-husband Jimmy. They decide to try things again and Marissa does not seem to have a problem with it.

The big taboo issue of Trey attacking Marissa is finally discussed. Marissa tells Summer, Summer tells Cohen, Seth tells Ryan and Ryan goes to settle things with Trey "once and for all." This obviously doesn't mean talking about things like adults over a cup of coffee. Ryan goes to Trey's apartment and they start fighting. Trey pulls a gun on Ryan. Marissa gets a call from Seth and Summer. Since she is closer to Trey's apartment, she is asked to try and stop Ryan from doing something bad.

The final scene is Trey wrestling Ryan to the ground and strangling him and Marissa running into the apartment. She screams "stop it, you're killing him" over and over and with a trembling hand, reaches for the gun that is now lying on the ground, and takes aim at Trey. She shoots him in the back and he falls to the ground as blood starts to seep through the front of his shirt.

It's not clear if he is dead...thats for Season Three.
