The Power Of The Ex

Previously on Felicity: Felicity found the suddenly evil Ben kissing the possibly evil Claire. Felicity drunkenly confessed to Meghan that she wished that she had stuck with Noel after she slept with him. Meghan did a spell to send Felicity back to that night, and Felicity freaked out, but eventually pulled it together long enough to get together with Noel.

A Felicity voice-over (FVO) begins the episode: "Dear Sally: Okay, you're not going to believe this. Remember last week, when I told you I was stuck in the past? Well, I'm still here. And now, something's happened that makes me wish I wasn't." I really wish we could see Sally's reactions to all this. I'm surprised she hasn't called Felicity's parents and tried to get Felicity committed. Then again, Mr. Assface Porter would probably be like, "No! She's pre-med! Leave her alone!" Anyway, as we hear Felicity's tape to Sally, we see Felicity and Noel throwing laundry at each other and goofing around, and then they start making out. FVO continues, "As you know, Noel and I started going out. And the thing is, it began really well." Meghan walks in and clears her throat, causing Felicity and Noel to jump apart. Meghan tells them not to stop because she's "seen this whole domination/submission thing before." Did anyone else just go to a scary visual place? Noel and Felicity mumble excuses. Why would Meghan care if they were making out? She's not Ben. Meghan says that she doesn't judge because she doesn't care. Felicity and Noel stand up and agree that they should get out of there. FVO says, "But given the awkward situation, we thought we should try to be discreet. So we started going places where we wouldn't run into anyone we knew."

Felicity and Noel walk through a street fair. Noel encourages Felicity to try the fried dough. What kind of heathen has never had fried dough? That's just wrong. FVO says that in trying to avoid their friends, they ran into someone else. An offscreen voice calls out, "Noel!" Felicity and Noel turn to look, and see Hannah standing nearby. She runs over excitedly as FVO says, "Someone who has become quite a problem." Noel and Hannah talk about how they haven't seen each other in three years. Felicity jumps in and says hello, and Noel re-introduces her, since Hannah and Felicity have met before. Awkward pause. Noel tells Felicity that she has sugar on her nose. Heh. Hannah wants to know what Noel has been up to. Noel says that he's looking for a job. Hannah says that she is, too, and holds up some flyers she's passing out advertising her services as a piano teacher. Hannah explains that she hasn't done much teaching because she's been spending so much time looking for work. Noel agrees that looking for a job is a job in and of itself. Felicity tells Hannah that she should see the websites Noel designs. Hannah thinks that Noel should design a website for her, advertising her lessons, and that she'd pay him. Noel offers to do it for free. Oh, Noel. Never do a website for free. At least ask for a token payment. Otherwise, the client gets all pushy and you get all resentful because they're not even paying you, and it's a bad scene. Trust me. Anyway, Hannah says that she has to go, but that Noel should "definitely call [her]." Noel asks Felicity for a pen, but Felicity points out that Hannah's number is on the flier. Hannah gives Noel a big hug, and Felicity looks kind of annoyed. Felicity and Hannah stand there and look at each other, unsure of the proper thing to do. FVO says, "And then Hannah hugged me. Okay, that's not exactly the truth. I hugged her. But I felt so stupid just standing there. I had to do something." Felicity and Hannah both look incredibly awkward after the hug, and Hannah runs off. Noel says that it was weird, and Felicity says that it wasn't, but her face tells a different story.

Would you think less of me if I admitted that some friends and I watched the Season One Felicity finale last weekend, and you know the scene from the credits where Ben grabs Felicity's face and kisses her? We rewound it, like, seven times. That scene is so awesome.

Felicity walks into Noel's room in the loft and says that she doesn't think they can hang out there anymore, because she just ran into Sean and had an awkward conversation. Oh, whatever. It'll only be awkward for a few months, and everyone will get over it. Except maybe Ben. Noel is on the phone, trying to nail down a date to do something. He says something about his conversation partner being "the busiest unemployed person in the world," and Felicity asks if he's talking to Hannah. Noel confirms that he is. Noel and Hannah start talking about some mutual high-school friend, and then make plans to get together, and Noel hangs up. Felicity asks if he called Hannah, and Noel says that Hannah called him because she had some ideas about the website. Felicity looks upset and says that Hannah doesn't waste any time. Noel tells Felicity that it'll be good practice for him, and then realizes that Felicity doesn't want him to do it. Felicity denies it, and then says, "This just wasn't supposed to happen." Noel asks what she's talking about. Felicity says that Noel hasn't seen Hannah since freshman year (technically, his sophomore year) and then she was just right there. Noel still doesn't get what Felicity is talking about, since he's not hip to the whole time-travel thing. Felicity says that she wasn't expecting Hannah, and Noel says that he wasn't, either. Noel offers, again, to skip it, and Felicity tells him that he should definitely do it, and pastes a fake smile on her face.

Felicity tells Meghan that she can't believe Noel is working with Hannah. Meghan points out that Felicity told him to, and Felicity says that she didn't mean it. Felicity, annoyed, wonders why this is happening, because Hannah wasn't there the last time around. Meghan tells Felicity about "the time-space continuum," where if you change one thing, everything else changes, too. Felicity asks whether her choosing Noel changed everything. Meghan says that it does, as does eating cereal and watching crappy daytime television, two activities Felicity is doing during this conversation. Meghan talks about "the ripple effect." Felicity realizes that it is her fault, because last time, they didn't go to the street fair, and they only went this time to avoid Ben. Meghan adds, "Who you were going out with 'last time.'" Meghan makes finger quotes around the words "last time," which cracked me up. Meghan tells Felicity that she needs to be a more responsible time traveler, and then asks if Felicity is ever going to class. Felicity's all, "Why? I already graduated." Meghan snarks that Felicity might want to make sure that UNY accepts time travel credits, unless she brought her future diploma with her, or she'll be screwed. Felicity looks worried, and then says that she probably should go to class. Felicity asks Meghan whether the conversation means that Meghan believes her. Meghan responds, "What, that you traveled back from the future? No. I might be weird. I'm not a freak show." I think I wish that Meghan had a spinoff.

Ben sits at a table in Dean & Deluca, sadly staring off into space. Javier walks over and asks Ben a favor. Javier explains that he wants to audition forMan of La Mancha. Ben has never heard of it, so Javier explains the plot, and then says that he needs Ben's help. Ben says that he doesn't know anything about acting. Javier admits that Ben isn't his first pick, and that he already asked Felicity. Javier apologizes for saying "the F-word." Ben says that Javier can say Felicity's name. Javier asks Ben to listen to his monologue and give him advice. Ben agrees to listen, but doesn't think he'll be any help. Come on! Ben took that acting class where he talked about his keys! He can help! Javier starts giving his monologue. Ben tries to interrupt because there is a customer waiting at the counter. Ben gets up to help the customer while Javier finishes. Javier asks what Ben thought and Ben curtly says, "Good job." Javier complains that Ben wasn't even listening. Ben says that he was, but that he's helping a customer now. Javier says that he hopes that Ben is more help to the customer than he was to Javier, and concludes, "Enjoy your mochaccino."

Sean walks into the loft, and Noel informs him that Sharon Wilkins from the homeowners' association called three times. Sean thanks him, distracted. Sean asks Noel whether things are good with him and Felicity. Noel says that they are, and wonders why Sean is asking. Sean admits that he wants to call Julie. Noel is surprised. Sean says that ever since Noel and Felicity got together, he's been thinking about Julie. Noel didn't even know that Sean kept in touch with Julie. Who did? Sean says that they've been emailing back and forth, and that he's always had a thing for her. Noel asks if Julie is interested. Sean says that he doesn't know, but that when she writes, she says that she wishes that she had someone just like Sean. Noel asks who wouldn't want someone just like Sean, because he's smart, funny, and dresses well. He was kidding with that last one. Maybe Sean and Noel will end up together. Sean says that Julie's number is sitting in his wallet. At no point does Noel bring up Meghan. Maybe he feels like he's not entitled to, since he helped to break up Felicity and Ben's relationship. Sort of.

Javier walks into Elena's room, where Elena is busy putting all of Tracy's things into a box. Yeah, Tangi Miller is definitely not pregnant. Javier points out that the breakup box is sad, since it's "like a little grave for your love." Javier waits a moment, and then asks Elena to give him feedback for his audition. Elena agrees. Javier says that he only needs help with his scene. Elena asks about his song. Javier grins and says that he's singing "To Dream the Impossible Dream." Elena asks about Javier's dance. Javier doesn't have one. Elena says that if he wants the lead, he needs to be a triple threat: "Actor, singer, dancer." Javier asks if Elena really thinks he can get the lead. Elena says that it doesn't matter what she thinks, and tells Javier to come back tomorrow with a complete audition that includes acting, singing, and dancing. Javier is shocked that Elena thinks he might get the lead, and calls her "Sancho Panza, [Don Quixote's] faithful sidekick." Elena says, "Hey! I'm nobody's sidekick, and don't you forget it." Is that a meta-statement about why Tangi Miller is getting the screwjob this season? I know I'm reading too much into it, but I'm desperate for clues. Javier says that he's going to practice his dance moves.

Felicity talks to her dad on the phone and tells him that she's pre-med now. Her dad is clearly thrilled, and agrees to pay for her schooling. FVO says that the great thing about time travel is that it's easy to solve old problems. Felicity runs down the hall in slow motion as FVO says, "But then again, it doesn't solve everything." Felicity hurries into Prof. Snark's classroom, and sees Ben seated there. He looks stunned. She sits behind him. Shouldn't Trevor be there, too? How did Felicity's time travel make Trevor disappear? Because I am all for that. Ben asks what Felicity's doing there. Felicity explains that she's pre-med now, and that organic chemistry is a requirement. Ben asks if she has to be in that particular class. Felicity claims that she didn't know he was in there. Bullshit. You're telling me she wouldn't know his schedule? Especially if she's trying to avoid him. Snark tells them to quiet down, and hands out a quiz. How can Felicity take the quiz on her first day of class? Felicity whispers to Ben that she'll change classes. Ben replies, "Good." FVO says that she knew she did the right thing in breaking up with Ben, but that it was still hard, and "maybe it's like in chemistry, how certain elements are just attracted to each other, no matter what the conditions." Felicity stares sadly at Ben's back, and then starts in on her quiz.

Noel is at Hannah's apartment. They look in her empty refrigerator. Noel comments that Hannah still has the same bottle of ketchup from three years ago. Hannah claims that she's practicing "condiment conservation" in preparation for being a starving artist. Noel picks up a CD and asks what it is. Hannah, embarrassed, says that it's her demo CD. She says that the piece Noel helped her with, the fugue, is on there. Noel sits down. Hannah says that she can't believe that he and Felicity are still together. Noel says that they aren't really still together -- they just got back together a few weeks earlier. Hannah asks whether he's happy about it, and Noel says that he is. Noel asks about Hannah's love life. Hannah says that she was engaged, but she accidentally told her fiancé that she's a spy, and SD-6 had him killed. Actually, Hannah just says that it didn't work out. Noel thinks that it was his loss. Hannah and Noel stare into each other's eyes. Hannah says that seeing Noel is "just like home," because they have a history. Hannah admits that she thinks about Noel a lot, and Noel says that he thinks about her, too. Noel realizes that the situation is quickly becoming awkward, so he chooses to make it more awkward by drawing attention to it, and says that he should go. Hannah apologizes, and Noel says that it's fine, and that he'll call her later. Hannah is so making the moves on Felicity's man! Then again, Felicity made the moves on her man back in the day.

Felicity tells Noel that she found out she can't change her Organic Chemistry class, so now it's going to be awkward. I'm totally fascinated by the fact that Keri Russell can wear a camisole top and no bra underneath and look fine. So jealous. Noel is silent. Felicity asks whether he thinks she shouldn't take the class. Noel says that he was actually thinking about something else, and that he thinks Hannah wants to get back together with him. Felicity is suddenly paying very close attention, and asks what Hannah said, exactly. Noel says that Hannah said he had been on Hannah's mind a lot. Felicity thinks that Hannah is unbelievable. Noel admits that Hannah asked whether he'd ever thought about giving them another chance. Felicity says that Hannah does this every time she's there, and that it's "like a flashback within a flashback." Felicity suddenly realizes that she hasn't heard what Noel said, and asks, "What did you say?" Noel says that he left. Felicity asks why he didn't tell her about it last night. Noel says that it's stupid and doesn't mean anything. Felicity asks why he's telling her now. Noel says that he woke up this morning and realized that he doesn't want to keep anything from her. Felicity asks if that's true, or if he secretly wants to be with Hannah. Throughout, Felicity is asking these questions in the manner of the Spanish Inquisition. Noel says that he doesn't want to be with Hannah, and that he's not even going to do her website. Felicity intensely says that she's come too far for Noel to end up with Hannah. Noel agrees.

Sean walks into the loft, which is empty of furniture. Meghan is standing there, and asks what the hell is going on. Sean tries to spin the "redoing the floors" lie, but Meghan doesn't buy it. Sean admits that he's "in a financial bind." Meghan wants to know how much. Sean admits that it's $50,000. Meghan is shocked, and keeps shrieking the number loudly. Meghan asks when he was going to tell her. Sean says that he was embarrassed and knew she would make him feel bad. Meghan says that he should feel bad. Sean says that he knew she wouldn't understand. Meghan asks why he's mad at her now. Sean doesn't think she even wants to understand him. Meghan yells that she wants to sit down, but she can't because there are no chairs, so she's going to her apartment, and that he can call her when he's through being a jerk. She walks out. Sean runs after her and yells out into the hallway that the actual amount of his debt is $55,419, so he rounded down. Meghan stalks off, disgusted. Sean slams the door.

Snark hands back the quizzes, telling the class that their performance was mostly abysmal. The students walk to the front to pick up their quizzes. Felicity gets an A, and Snark congratulates her. Ben gets an F, and Snark just gives him a dirty look. Felicity waits for Ben outside the room to try to explain how she couldn't switch classes. Ben, defeated, says that it doesn't matter because he's dropping pre-med. Felicity asks, "What?"

Noel returns to the loft and finds an envelope leaning against the door. He opens it to find Hannah's CD and a note inside. Cut to Noel listening to the CD. Sean asks, "What's with the culture?" Noel retorts, "What's with the furniture?" Sean admits that it's a money thing. Noel asks if it's related to all of the messages on the answering machine. Sean says that it is. Noel asks if he can help; Sean quickly says that it's under control, and changes the subject, picking up the case for Hannah's CD. Sean thinks that Hannah is cute, but then he gets to the real reason why he wanted to talk to Noel: Sean called Julie. Sean excitedly spills that Julie is coming to visit weekend, and Sean thinks that this is his time to be exploring, blah blah blah justification-for- dumping-Meghan-cakes. Noel is silent. Sean asks if Noel thinks he's making a mistake. Noel admits that he was thinking about Hannah, and that she wants to get back together. Sean asks whether Noel is considering it. Noel says that he isn't, but then admits that Felicity is "acting a little strange." Sean thinks that everything is a little strange right now. Noel warms to the topic, saying that if you had told him a few weeks ago that he would have Felicity and Hannah after him, he would never have believed it. Sean points out that he has Meghan and Julie. Then he realizes that he doesn't really have Julie, but that "it's a distinct possibility." Sean thinks that he and Noel might be much more appealing and attractive than they thought. Noel thinks it's weird, and Sean admits it's probably not true. Sean says that he's going to "seize this opportunity," because it probably won't last.

Javier dances for Elena. People, he's wearing legwarmers. It's so cute and hilarious and truly awful. Elena sits in a chair and stares at Javier, finally saying, "It's terrible." Javier asks what he should do, since the audition is tomorrow. Elena tells him to give it up, because he has "dance dyslexia." Javier asks if she can help him, and Elena says that she only agreed to do that before she knew what she was dealing with. Javier thinks he can't be that bad. Elena says, "You're worse!" When did Elena turn into such a bitch? She's always been outspoken, but never this mean. Javier tells her that she's being mean. Elena says she's just being honest, and saving them both a lot of time and problems.

Felicity knocks on the door at the loft, and Ben answers. She awkwardly asks him how things are, and Ben says that Noel is in his room. Felicity chases Ben into the loft and tells him that she knows things are difficult for him in Snark's class, but that she knows that he can do it. Ben doesn't think so. Felicity offers to help him study. No, Elena is supposed to help him study! Ben doesn't think Felicity's helping is a good idea.

Felicity walks into Noel's room. He's listening to Hannah's music and working on her website. I just realized that on the website, Noel spells the name "Hanna," but I'm not going back and changing all of the old recaps now, with three episodes left. ["Even if you wanted to, I wouldn't." -- Wing Chun] Felicity asks what he's doing, and Noel tells her, but looks ashamed. Felicity asks whether Noel bought Hannah's CD, and Noel says that Hannah left it outside the door when he wasn't home. Felicity asks whether Noel is working on the website, and says that she thought he wasn't going to do it. Noel, clearly feeling guilty, comes up with about four reasons why he's working on the website. Felicity looks upset. Noel says that he's a little confused. Felicity tries to talk about it rationally, but she suddenly spits, "Are you going back to Hannah? Because, God, this can't be happening!" Noel tells Felicity to be calm, and points out that this summer, they really clicked. Felicity says that they always have, which is why they're together. Noel says that since that night on the roof, everything has been different, and he doesn't know who she is anymore. Felicity squeals, "What do you mean?" Noel says that everything has been weird -- the way they got together was weird, and the way Felicity's been acting has been weird, too. Felicity asks how she has been acting. Noel says it's like she's in a race, or like she's about to explode, and it's freaky. Felicity: "So, then I'm freaking you out?" Noel: "Yeah. A little. You're freaking me out." Felicity: "Well, then, I'll stop! I'll stop freaking you out." Noel says that her saying that is freaking him out. Felicity stops and considers and then asks if he wants to slow things down, because she can. Noel agrees. Felicity sighs and smiles at Noel, who looks worried. Felicity asks what the problem is. Noel says that she's still freaking him out. Felicity resolutely says that she promises to stop. Noel looks...freaked out. That whole scene was hilarious. I don't think that Scott Foley has the romantic chemistry with Keri Russell that Scott Speedman has, but Foley and Russell definitely work well together.

Felicity and Meghan talk about the Noel situation. Meghan has truly horrific white fan earrings on. Felicity paces and worries that she can't believe that she's come this far only to freak Noel out. Meghan advises Felicity to go over to Hannah's place and kick her ass. Felicity doesn't think that's a good idea. Meghan tells Felicity that "a good old-fashioned ass-kicking" would feel really good. Felicity replies, "You didn't see her. She was in amazing shape." Heh. Meghan says that the whole point of the time travel is to do things differently. Felicity says that the point is to do the things that she wanted to do. Meghan advises Felicity to go and tell Hannah to "back off [her] man." Felicity rolls her eyes and says, "Yeah. That'll work. If I had a CD, there's no way I'd put my picture on the cover." Meghan says, "Seriously. Go kick her ass."

Hannah gives Felicity a piano lesson. Felicity does a scale, and Hannah says that they should try the key. Felicity admits that she didn't come there to take piano lessons. Hannah figured. Felicity says that she wanted to talk about Noel. Hannah asks, "What about him?" Felicity stammers a little and then says that she's been through a lot to be with him, and wants to give their relationship a chance, but Hannah knows how guys get when ex-girlfriends reappear. Hannah asks, "No. How do they get?" Felicity says that they get confused, and that she doesn't want that to happen to Noel. Hannah says that Noel is confused. Felicity says that he's not, but that she doesn't want him to get confused, and she doesn't know how much time she has. Hannah, concerned, asks if Felicity is sick. Felicity says that she's not, stammers some more, and then says that she really wants to be with Noel. Hannah says okay. Felicity is happy. Hannah says that she doesn't want to get between them. Felicity says that she knew Hannah would understand.

Javier helps a customer at Dean & Deluca. Elena walks in. Javier yells that he doesn't want to hear more about how terrible he is. Elena apologizes, and then says that she got a letter from Tracy; he went to Zambia on a church mission. Elena says that she was upset, and took it out on Javier, and offers to try again. Javier says that he's not going to make it as an actor. Elena can't believe that Javier is just going to quit. Javier says, "You said it yourself. I'm terrible. I can't sing. I can't dance. I have an accent, some people say." Elena tells Javier that he can't just give up, and he has to follow his dream because Don Quixote would. Javier asks if she really thinks so, and Elena says that she does. Javier tosses her an apron and asks if she can operate complicated machinery, because he has an audition to get to. Wait, isn't Javier still with Samuel at this point? Are they going to address that at all? Just wondering.

Sean walks into the loft and finds all new furniture. Meghan walks down the stairs and says that she knew he was in debt and felt bad, and she understood. Sean asks if Meghan bought the furniture. Meghan says that technically her father did it, but that he doesn't need to know all of the details about where the money went. Sean says that he can't accept it. Meghan says that they can tell her father about it, but Sean doesn't want to accept the money from her or her father. Meghan doesn't understand the big deal, since he'll pay her back and she knows where he lives; she adds that he can pay her back now by taking her out to dinner. Sean says that he doesn't want to have to pay her back. Meghan doesn't understand, because she was trying to do something nice, which is a rare event, so he should take advantage. Sean says that he doesn't want to take advantage, and that he can't accept the money. Meghan says, "Fine," but asks for one good reason why he can't accept it. Sean can't tell her the real reason, so Meghan says she's going to get changed while he figures out where he's taking her to dinner.

Meghan complains to Felicity about Sean's lack of appreciation. Felicity points out that he's taking her to dinner, but Meghan says that was her idea. Felicity tells Meghan that she has good ideas, because talking to Hannah worked out well. There is a knock at the door, and Meghan says she'll get it because she's leaving anyway. Felicity asks who it is, just as Noel walks into her room and asks if Felicity went to Hannah's apartment. Felicity lamely says that she went to take a piano lesson. Noel asks if Felicity is dying, because Hannah thinks that Felicity has a terminal illness. Felicity says that she's fine. Noel says that if Felicity were dying, it would all make sense. Felicity assures Noel that she's fine. Noel says that Hannah told him Felicity asked her not to see Noel anymore. Felicity can't deny that. Noel asks what Felicity thought she was doing. Felicity says that she wanted to give them a chance, because they've only had a week together. Noel says, "Yes. We've only had a week. Because the week before that, you were in love with Ben. And the three years before that. Do you realize how many times I've waited for you to figure out who you want to be with?" Yeah, but Felicity never asked him to wait. Felicity admits that she made a mistake, but asks if she was just supposed to stand by and let it happen. Noel tells her that she's supposed to wait, just like he waited. Well, that's not fair. Felicity sadly says, "You want to be with Hannah." Noel says that he doesn't know. Felicity says, "But you might." Noel doesn't say anything, and they stare at each other. Noel says that he has to go, and walks away.

The editors do the same annoying continuity thing they did last week, where we see Felicity making the same tape to Sally that we heard at the beginning of the episode, except that she gets interrupted. So are we supposed to think that she went back and added the rest of the lines after this scene? It's all very confusing. Anyway, there's a knock at the door and Felicity opens it to find Ben. He asks if it's a bad time, and Felicity says that it's not. Ben reminds her that she said she would help him, and asks if the offer is still open. Felicity invites him in, and Ben asks if they could go to the lab instead. Felicity says she'll grab her coat. Ben looks like he's still not sure this is a good idea.

Sean hands Meghan a check for $50,000. Meghan spent $50,000 on furniture? Meghan asks where it came from, and whether Sean sold his organs. Sean says that Noel gave it to him. Meghan asks where Noel got the money, and Sean explains that Noel got it due to his marriage to Gnatalie. Meghan can't believe that Sean will take money from Noel and not her, because she's Sean's girlfriend. Sean hesitates, and then admits that he called Julie. Meghan doesn't know what he's talking about .Sean says that he and Meghan aren't doing well, and that they argue all the time. He's not placing blame, but Julie understands him. Meghan is incredulous. Sean says he doesn't know if anything is going to happen with him and Julie, and starts to offer up his rationalizations about it being the right time for him to explore, but stops, probably realizing how ridiculous that sounds. Meghan looks upset, and Sean tells her that the last thing he wanted to do was hurt her. Meghan stands up and starts to walk out, but then turns and says, "I'm not the one who's going to get hurt. You are."

Felicity and Ben work together in the darkened lab. Felicity explains that an ionic bond is between a positively-charged atom and a negatively-charged atom. That's what they do in college-level Organic Chemistry? Because I learned that in high school. Ben clarifies that it's like "opposites attract." Then Paula Abdul dances by with a cartoon cat. Felicity says that there are covalent bonds, which are more.... Ben supplies, "Platonic." Felicity agrees, and they laugh. Ben asks if he can ask her something. Felicity agrees. Ben says that she seemed kind of sad when he came by her apartment earlier. Felicity says that everything is fine. Ben brings up Noel, but Felicity says that they're fine. Ben asks if she doesn't want to talk about it. Felicity says that he doesn't want to hear it, because they'd probably end up there all night. Ben says that's okay. They stare at each other. Kiss her! Kiss her! Ben says he's going to get something to drink, and asks if he can get anything for Felicity. She says she's fine, and he walks off.

Noel shows Hannah the website he made. Hannah likes it. Noel apologizes for what happened with Felicity, and admits that they had a huge fight about it. Hannah hopes that she didn't make things worse. Noel says that he just told her he needs some time to figure things out. Hannah asks what he needs to figure out. Noel says he needs to figure out what he wants. Hannah nods.

Ben returns with two cans of soda, saying that he got one for her anyway. Ben sits down and asks where they were. Felicity says that they were talking about molecular bonds. Ben moves closer to her face, and Felicity gets flustered, saying that they can move on if he's ready. Ben says, "I'm not." He kisses her. Aw, yeah. I'm sorry. I know I should probably hate Ben because he cheated and all, but these two are just so hot together.

Noel shows Hannah how to navigate the website. Hannah is pleased that Noel used the fugue he helped her write. Hannah can't believe that Noel did the whole site in a day. Noel says that he was inspired. Hannah asks, "By what?" And then they make out.

Ben and Felicity are still making out.

So are Noel and Hannah, only they have progressed to lying on the bed. For some reason it creeps me out to see them making out, since they're married in real life.

But it doesn't bother me if Keri Russell and Scott Speedman are together in real life. Felicity stops Ben and says, "I can't do this. I came here for Noel!" Ben, disgusted, asks, "You came here for Noel?" Felicity tries to apologize, but Ben picks up his bag and leaves.

Meanwhile, Noel stops kissing Hannah and says that he has to give the thing with Felicity a chance. Hannah sighs. Noel asks if she's okay, and Hannah says that she's just disappointed.

Felicity lies on her bed. Her phone rings. It's Noel. He says he's not doing anything. Felicity asks if he had a nice night. Noel says he didn't, and Felicity says that she didn't, either. Noel says that he could only think about Felicity. Felicity confesses that she felt the same. There's a knock at her door, so she tells Noel to hold on a second. She opens the door to find Noel, holding a cell phone. He explains, "I'm on hold." Felicity smiles, and Noel walks in and kisses her.

week: Julie returns. Ben is happy to see her. They go out. Felicity, Noel, Ben, Julie, Sean, and Meghan play Spin the Bottle. Ben and Julie kiss, and Felicity looks unhappy. Noel tells Felicity that she'll never be over Ben. I hate Julie! I hope she dies in this flashback.
