What? You thought I was talking about Eric and his disastrous threesome with Sloan and gal pal Tori? Get outta here! I was referring to the inescapable shit storm that Ari has somehow managed to land in again, and with no other than Adam Davies, the mid-level agency prick who screwed the pooch on Ari’s little coup d’etat at the end of last season.
You see, after finally settling with Terrence for a severance worth $11 million, Ari gets all giddy and begins scouting locations for his new agency – the biggest and best in the city – but on his way out the door, he runs into Davies driving by. Later that night – at Sloan’s charity event (more on that soon) –Davies blackmails Ari into letting him in on the new agency with a guaranteed partnership, corner office and $1 million salary. Um, excuse me? Anyways, Ari hasn’t officially agreed to anything yet, but Davies the Rat has threatened to tell Terrence about his latest endeavor should he decide not to. Of course, the question here is: can Terrence really do anything other than buy the building first? I mean, that would definitely suck for Ari, but it wouldn’t change his decision to open a new agency. There’s gotta be plenty of prime real estate in the area… for the right price.
Back to the aforementioned charity event – with which Vince has been entered as the grand “Win a Date” prize – Eric is totally sweating another run-in with Tori. Following the surprising turn-of-events the night before, Eric meets up with her beforehand to apologize for his behavior, but she just blows him off as a jerk. Naturally, this only makes Eric want the hottie blonde that much more, but he figures that if he can hold out for one more night, he’ll never have to think about it again. Good luck with that one, bro. The situation proves all to much for the poor guy when Tori entertains the idea of trying the threesome one more time – but with no rules – but, unfortunately, nothing comes to fruition other than one final tease before she leaves to go back home.
There’s no way this is over. Maybe she lives in New York and they’re going to hook back up in the future? Then again, the writers have proven in the past that some of their subplots are very dispensable (remember Dom? Neither do we), so it may have just been meant as no more than a some much-needed character development for Eric. So, is he really that nice of a guy? No, he’s not, but his morals are enough in check to realize that fucking up his relationship with the gorgeous Sloan isn’t exactly a great idea.
