## NUDITY

As you can tell, Hot Neighbor Wade and Dr. Zoe Hart continue to be unable to keep their sweaty hands off each other's sweaty bodies, and Zoe continues to own a saucy array of adorable bra-lets.

## PANTLESSNESS

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/10/IMG_0386.png)

In fact, all that Sweaty Hands/Sweaty Bodies has led to Zoe literally losing her pants. This is seriously not that different a look from all those time she wears short-shorts, but Rose there -- remember her? Zoe's Teen Friend who pops up whenever they need to tread water on the Zoe/George/Wade love triangle for a while? -- is rightly skeptical of Zoe's story of how she was out "pantless jogging in heels," because it's a hot new exercise trend and as a doctor, she needs to be on top of these things. This seems like a good moment to note that Rachel Bilson's comic timing has been really on point so far this season.

Oh, right, Rose's problem. Okay, this is dumb, but whatever: Rose has decided that the road to popularity for her is to throw a "music festival" in Bluebell and she needs Zoe's help because -- for very contrived plot reasons -- said festival needs to happen in like two days.This whole storyline kind of felt like the writers needs two more weeks to break it, but at least Rose's yellow jeans are cute.

## TIM

I am never going to care about Lemon's sister Magnolia, unless she becomes full-on evil and kidnaps Rose and traps her at the bottom of a well. However: Magnolia is all embarrassed that her sister is a waitress at the Rammer Jammer, which is dumb in part because having your sister working at a bar would be a smart way for a resourceful kid to blackmail herself into a good underage drinking set-up. Tim wants Lemon to work for him (Friendly Receptionist Addie "went to graduate school," AKA didn't have her contract renewed for season 2), but Lemon is determined to make it at Rammer Jammer.

## APRON

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/10/IMG_0392.png)

You can tell this by how carefully she irons her vintage apron. A love of vintage aprons, in fact, is one of the places where the Venn diagram of My Interests and Lemon's Interests intersect. (Other places include: sparkly accessories and fake lashes.) I would like to give the costumers thumbs up for dialing down Jaime King's...everything. And I would also like to give Jaime King thumbs up for being all together more natural-seeming this season so far. And a third set of thumbs up to the universe for her cute lace dress.

## LAVON

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/10/IMG_0395.png)

Lavon is so dreamy. My big issue with this show, currently, is that no one is throwing herself at Lavon. Let's take stock: snappy dresser; can work a vest; charming; funny; a football star; owns an amazing house; cooks; is the mayor; a good friend; totally cute; great smile; essentially: IS A DELIGHT. I would spend a lot of time lurking around the Brightly Colored ManPants section of the local J Crew if I lived in Bluebell, and then throwing myself at him. ANYWAY. Ruby also looks cute here, and what you need to know about them is that he spends the whole episode paranoid that she is plotting to get back at him for breaking her heart in high school and everyone keeps telling him he's crazy.

## VEST

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/10/IMG_0397.png)

In case you wanted to see Lavon's butt. Oh, also: I forgot to tell you that Zoe and HNW made a bet to see who could go longer without trying to knock boots with the other. She might be sexually frustrated, but she looks cute in that red dress.

## ARMS

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/10/IMG_0404.png)

Another reason to date Lavon: HIS KITCHEN IS STOCKED WITH CAKES AT ALL TIMES.

## THE HORROR

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/10/IMG_0406.png)

It IS very nice of Ruby to put on HER cute dress -- so many cute dresses on this show, seriously -- to tell Lavon that Bluebell has been removed from *Southern Living*'s list of best small towns to visit. Quoth the horrified townsperson pictured: "THE TOURISTS WILL STOP COMING AND THEN WHO WILL BUY MY CROTCHETED TEA COZIES?" Indeed. Will no one think of the the cozies?!? Lavon is, obviously, not real pleased that the town has been stripped of its Tourist Destination Assignation under his mayoral term, especially given that he is up for reelection. Uncontested...FOR NOW. (Given that we've both watched TV, I think we can all guess who is going to run against him.)

## POLKA DOTS

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/10/IMG_0410.png)

In which Tim Matheson tries to trick Lemon into working for him. I feel like I've seen this outfit on *I Love Lucy* during the early months of Lucy's pregnancy, but I actually also think it's totally cute. I don't know what that says about me.

## ABS

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/10/IMG_0412.png)

I felt like you might want to see this.

## GEORGE

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/10/IMG_0415.png)

Oh, right, GEORGE! I kind of forgot he existed. ANYWAY, since he and Zoe aren't on at the mo, George is following HNW's instructions for hooking up a hot one night stand (a professional ladies' beach volleyball team is in town). It goes as well as this photo would indicate.

## DRESS

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/10/IMG_0420.png)

I want this dress to come to me. Also: HNW and Zoe blah blah Music Festival blah blah some singer Wade used to be in a band with, yadda yadda no one cares.

## JEANS

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/10/IMG_0421.png)

This is not Zoe's Night After Hot Sex outfit, she points out (duh, she is wearing pants), but actually her I Was Up All Night Throwing Together A Last Minute Music Festival Outfit. The idea of throwing together a music festival overnight makes the control freak in me so stressed out that I can say no more. Other than that: THAT MAKES NO SENSE PEOPLE WILL NOT ATTEND A MUSIC FESTIVAL THAT CROPS UP OVERNIGHT AND THE FACT THAT ROSE IS DOING THIS BECAUSE SOME OTHER GIRL AT SCHOOL IS GOING TO A BLACK KEYS CONCERT AND SHE ISN'T, IS INSANE. Okay, done now.

## FLOWERS

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/10/IMG_0424.png)

Yes, this is the crackpot "indie music star" that Rose believes will ratchet her to untold heights of popularity. Except she's also a hypochondriac and possibly about to sleep with HNW and therefore Zoe kind of accidentally on purpose tells her she might have nerve damage in her finger and she leaves in a tizzy and HNW gets all on his high horse about how Zoe just screwed over Rose in an attempt to cock-block him and now she can consider his cock blocked FOREVER because that's just not cool, man.

## MAGNOLIA

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/10/IMG_0425.png)

Magnolia hit her head on a coffee table and woke up and thought she was Taylor Swift.

## COCKBLOCKED

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/10/IMG_0428.png)

Maybe Zoe can console herself with the thought that her outfit is really, really cute, even though I couldn't get a great shot of it in its entirety. Just trust me. It's cute.

## Oy

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/10/IMG_0431.png)

So HNW is all, "YOU RUINED THIS STUPID FESTIVAL DON'T YOU KNOW ANYONE WHO CAN SING?" and of course Zoe does: George. So she talks him into saving the Teen Indie Music Festival because there is nothing a teenage girl finds cooler than a thirtysomething lawyer singing freaking "Ramblin' Man" under a bunch of balloons. No offense to Scott Porter, whose voice is quite nice, but COME ON. The show makes the argument that now all the Ladies of Bluebell -- of whom there are suddenly many, all of whom should be dating Lavon -- want to nail George, thus turning him into a ManWhore Whose Oat-Sowing Will Break Zoe's Hart, Even Though It Was Her Idea Kinda. Even though this was a music festival presumably for underage teen hipsters.

## OBVIOUSLY

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/10/IMG_0435.png)

But Lavon has more problems than just the fact that George's Inoffensive Classic Rock is stealing his potential ladies. Ruby -- the lady I am pretty sure he actually likes -- is running against him for mayor. I think we all saw this coming a mile away, but I can't say that it's not going to be fun to watch it all play out. For one thing, they are two of the best dressed people in town. For another, Stressed Out Lavon is going to be really funny. Bring it on, show!

[Fug the Show: Hart of Dixie recap, episode 202Sorry for getting this up so late -- I had a cold last week and it made me particularly pokey in all things. But here we are! I brought extra shirtlessness to make amends for my tardiness.![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/static-gofugyourself-com/uploads/2012/10/img_0383.png)](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/fug-the-show-hart-of-dixie-episode-202-10-2012/)
