Can someone please tell me what Rights
of Passage is about? It is the last
episode in Season 8.

sue z q · 10-09-2001, 11:42 PM

I don't remember it perfectly, but that's the ep where Jo decides to leave and take a job in CA, where her boss and boyfriend, if I recall right, has asked her to go. At first she's scared to leave, but Blair talks to her and she decides to leave. It's very sad at the end when Jo leaves. She says a quick goodbye to everyone, but you can tell she's running out because she has tears in her eyes...very sad ep...

The rites of passage is the one you are refering to...... episode 180, it is the episode right before "the rights of passage" which is the one where Jo leaves.

very confusing I had to consult the episode guide for this one.

Episode: 180: Rites of Passage
May 02, 87~ It is now time for Jo and Blair to graduate from college, but Jo got turned down by the speech
committee, instead, Blair will be giving the graduation speech.

Episode: 181: Rights of Passage
May 09, 87 ~Summer offers a variety of options for everyone, especially Jo, who's offered a tempting job in Los Angeles.

Hope this helped clear the confusion.

ks · 10-10-2001, 05:44 PM

The second part is awesome! Well, both parts are really. But in the second part Jo hugs Blair goodbye and that is the first time Jo actually hugs Blair without one of them being sarcastic about it or shoving away that I can remember---I actually cried

Blair and Jo hug each other in the first part of the episode too, but it was the second part that got to me
