One Million Billionth Of A Millisecond On A Sunday Morning(Season 6, Episode 2)

Jamie discovers  Debra and Skillz affair, because they unwisely choose to make out right in his kitchen. Skillz initially tries to play it off as "checking her teeth for food particles," but this kid is too smart for that. Jamie addresses this tomfoolery by looking directly into the camera and addressing the audience, which is sort of a bridge too far, even for One Tree Hill.

Oh, the humanity! Brooke has two black eyes and strangulation marks on her neck from her assault. She calls Peyton, but holds back on breaking the news to her friend when she hears Peyton's news about her upcoming wedding to Lucas. She does call Debra, however, and the new nanny puts aside her sex crazed shenanigans to give comfort and support. Brooke asks Debra for a gun. This is going somewhere ugly.

Carrie torments Dan by feeding him some of oatmeal or gruel loaded with live cockroaches. Holy smokes. She puts her "plan" into action:  she uses Dan's truck to watch Jamie and Haley at the elementary school.

The main subplot this time is all about the redemption of Quentin! He's bonded with is teammates. He's doing well in Haley's class. He has the adoration of Jamie, and has become a role model for his younger brother. He expresses his desire to get married one day, no doubt to a lady like Haley. He seems to have realized that basketball isn't all that there is.

Brooke tells Peyton her injuries were caused by a fall down some stairs. She doesn't want to harsh Peyton's happy wedding buzz. The first person Lucas breaks the news to is Haley(who dispenses her usual chipper advice about love.)

Haley believes Debra's laziness is due to a recurrence of her drug use, because Nathan's pills are being mysteriously disappearing. Debra admits to having sex(but not with who) and Nathan admits to taking the pills for pain since he's been training. Hey, even saint Haley is entitled to couple of mistakes.

Haley does convince Nathan see the doctor. The doctor doesn't seem too thrilled about the idea of Nathan playing basketball again. The doc uses scary words like "paralysis."That's not good.

Dan's morphine wears off, which gives him the opportunity to do what he does best: taunting and mind games. He instructs Carrie to call the number on the back of his(still blinking)pager. When Carrie realizes her plan to frame Dan for the kidnapping of Jamie will fail when he croaks in six months, she absolutely freaks! Dan's playing human chess again.

CLIFFHANGER(S) Jamie has Haley sew a red cape for Quentin, just like his own. Quentin stops at a station for gas, but something's wrong...he sees a bloody body on the floor, and when he attempts to leave he gets shot in the back by the creep behind the counter.

Lucas gets the call that Quentin is dead. Redemption equals death. Again.

 

Debra takes Brooke to the shooting range. Brooke is very determined and scary looking. It's safe to say she's not going to be taking any more shit from robbers.
