Enough of that. How's this for a change in conversation, will any of the girls go home with MC for Christmas Eve/Day? We already know MC can go see Iris, Bella's status is currently unknown, I imagine we can go to the Royces, the Baileys might not happen, and with the divorce the Burkes are also up in the air.

But Christmas with MC and Neil could be universal, with the probable exception of Bella.

Iris may well be an exception to the rule here. Josy's parents are divorced so in order to see both of them there has to be an arrangement for a Christmas celebration that doesn't happen on Christmas day. So Josy and MC go see Iris then and Christmas proper is something else.

I'd actually like to see MC go to his girlfriend's parents for Christmas and have them invite Neil as well. They get to have their daughter's boyfriend with them without his father having to spend Christmas alone. It's two extra people. Easily done.

But this might be something that will be very different based on path. With Jill I would expect that solution. Sage might be more likely to just join MC and Neil. If you switched to Zoey she definitely would just join MC and Neil. Bella might also join them but it would be awkward.

Josy and Maya depends on if their break up has already taken place. I could see Pete inviting MC and Neil to celebrating Christmas with them. Maya would be more likely to join MC and Neil.

What I could see happening is for Maya to join Josy's family for Christmas and the break up happening as a result of that evening's drama. On their path MC will also be there. Possibly Neil as well.

We already know how he'll respond

I didn't think about that... yeah that's a much neater idea, having Neil come along, especially on Jill's path.

I don't want Bella to be alone on Christmas

If Neil came along on Jills path the MC might finally make the connection about his mom and the house.

 

[Roger-a-Dale]

Well, Sorry girls, it's not working, but say Josy, have you met Neil....



Jesus I always forget about Burke... But thats all we got left? Burke, Magnar and the Drugs? We are fucking close to the end arent we

Suppose the mysterious Priscilla Stephen calls is actually Lynette's mother and MC's grandparents are involved in the B&R corruption. That twist could easily add an episode's worth of drama.

 

[Blue Milk]

If Neil came along on Jills path the MC might finally make the connection about his mom and the house.

How? She lived in that house before she met Neil. He probably knows nothing about it.

I don't want Bella to be alone on Christmas

If Neil were to be invited to Jill's home (*that* house from MC's mother's photo)... ...that could provide some interesting drama.

As for Maya/Josy, after the way Neil responded to MC's telling him about the throuple... ...would Neil actually go along with them for the meal? I would expect that would be a bit awkward, at best.

 

[Better Cock Spock]

If Neil came along on Jills path the MC might finally make the connection about his mom and the house.

That was my thinking, it depends on Neil talking to Geoff and Amelia and leading the discussion in a certain way.

The only problem is how MC would find out off Jill's path, which leads me to believe it'll more likely be a canon thing.

For Josy and Maya I do wounder how christmas goes and if the break up has already happen at this point, throuple wise the only thing known Mc going home with Josy but is that if you got Josy date or does it happen regardless? my guess is it could be dated dependent but im just guesting DPC isn't giving a lot away

Lynette didn't live there anymore when she met Neil, though.

I honestly don't see the MC going to any of them or any of them coming to him. The MC missed out on Thanksgiving at home with his Dad and I think it would be better if he spends it with him on the day then he can spend time with whoever after that.

I don't want Bella to be alone on Christmas

She can be with Jill.

 

[Lagunavii]

Neil might be a bit better at noticing pictures than the MC, though - "I son Ive seen this house before, there's a picture of your mom when she was younger standing outside it"

Oh there is definitely potential for a bomb drop. It's just not inevitable.

That drama would be so detached from the MC it would border on satire.

DPC: "Hey, MC!"
MC: "Huh?"
DPC: "You know those grandparents of yours who have never wanted anything to do with you and despise your father?"
MC: "Yeah?"
DPC: "They're corrupt!"
MC: "...Ok?" *jackie_chan_confused_emoji*

Even better on the Quinn Path

They are also your GFs boss - and they need you to bring her in...

 

[Lagunavii]

Oh there is definitely potential for a bomb drop. It's just not inevitable.

To be fair as Spock said, the bomb drop has to be canon, so it's unlikely that one is going off on a specific path... More Very Unlikely than inevitable.

 

[Better Cock Spock]

She can be with Jill.

Jill: You went out of your way. This looks delicious.
Bella: It's the one Christmas I plan to celebrate this year, so why not?
Jill: Are you holding up ok?
Bella: Thank you. I feel better than I did last year. How about you? How is the family?
Jill: It won't be the best Christmas at our place, I can tell you that much. Dad's been drinking a bit too much lately.
Bella: Sigh

It sounds like Bella doesn't celebrate Christmas anymore, probably since James went MIA. And Jill will be with her own family. Not to say they couldn't still get together, but still.

Plus on Bella's path, MC does make it sound like he won't be with her on Christmas Eve and Day.

MC: Do you get any winter break, or is it just us?
Bella: I'll get some days off, yes. But I have other duties to carry out between semesters. What will you be doing on your break?
MC: Hopefully, I'll be spending lots of time with you.
Bella: Aren't you going back home?
MC: I'll go back home for a few days, but I think I'll return to my frat before the next semester starts.
Bella: I see. Yes, I'm available.

It doesn't have to be canon, I just find it extremely likely it will be.

I still think finding out Lynette is a Burgmeister will be the season finale cliffhanger, a la Fuck Fuck Fuck.

Yeah I'd actually expect them to get frustratingly close to the revelation and then not get it. Just as a way for fucking with the players.

• Jill: they'll decide where to go on which day.
• Maya: maybe they'll wait for Derek's surgery/discharge.
• Sage: they'll stay or go to MC's. Worst case scenario, Stephen's and then Jade's.
• Bella: what if they go to MC's and lead more people in on the fact that a teacher and a student are dating?
• Rio: not likely, since it'd still be a long way before her comeback.
• Quinn: nah. She is temporarily out of action as she needs the heat to die out a bit. Plus, she did tell Henry she might go there
• Sarah/Melanie: more Mel than Sarah since the former is more open to an actual relationship, but no.
• Nicole: now that I'd like to see trying to convince Neil that why dating a stripper is not a bad idea.
• Jade: if anything, it would be the other way around since she [allegedly] got a new place. Will he go with or without Sage?
• Nora: what if MC's got a gift under her tree?
• Zoey: it will definitely depend on whether they kissed or not.

Lily: She is still out of action at least for the first half due to the debating of whether she wants to be in a relationship or not.
