Following a warning from Danny about Ben’s behaviour
and how he better not hurt Riley
as she’s his best friend and once it’s out there
that Ben likes her he can’t “walk out of it”,
which also explains to us
why he has never told Riley how he feels about her.
Which I talk a bit more about at the end of this recap/review.
Anyways, thanks to Bonnie (in some of Bonnie’s funniest scenes)
Ben has to cancel on Riley, she in turn calls Danny
who leaves Tucker with the two supermodels
but he also arrives too late as she met someone at the party.
As he is about to leave Ben also shows up
and Danny points out he’s too late as they turn
as see her dancing with a new guy.
Danny leaves and Ben says to Emma as he watches them dance
“how do I get to be that guy?”
Now I at first I was a little pissed at Riley
for uses Danny as Ben has used her
but we saw the look of guilt on Riley’s face
once she starts dancing with Fitch.
And then I got to thinking that
maybe she called Danny just to complain about his idiot brother
and didn’t ask him to come to the party.
I think Danny just went ahead and did it,
remember Danny saying to Tucker
“I can’t just leave her standing there alone”
so I think that just shows what type of guy he is
that she didn’t ask for him to be there for her, he just was,
and she just recognizes it as her best friend being there
because she would do the same thing.
More on Danny not telling…
I knew there had to be another reason he hasn’t told her
and not just that she liked Ben
because remember she only admitted to him
about her feeling for his brother and the start of season one.
Also, in the pilot it is clear that Ben hadn’t seen Riley in years
as he had no clue about her losing weight,
which obviously Danny and Riley had stayed friends and in touch
and still never told her even then.
One of two ways I want Riley to find out about who has feelings for her and then also how Ben can learn about Danny’s feelings for her
1) Ben lets Riley down again and she actually confronts him on this
and when she’s yelling about how she’s been there for him,
waiting for him to need her, etc
it clicks in her head that that is what Danny has always done for her.
2) Tucker gets drunk one night
and the boys are busy and can’t help him
so Riley does and he just lets it slip
by saying something in drunken ramblings
“you’re nice, no wonder Ben and Danny like you”
and then he passes out.
