After watching the latest episode ("On All Fours") of HBO's hit show "Girls," it's safe to say that the girls on the show are having a rough stretch. Lena Dunham's character Hannah is especially going through some bad times in episode nine, as she ends up in the hospital. What else could go wrong for the girls on season two?

For at least one character on the show things are going really well. Charlie's app company reached a landmark and the company is celebrating. However, in a cringe worthy scene, Marnie goes to the party (she was actually invited) and sings for the crowd. She even gives Charlie a call out before just so everyone knows he is the one who invited the girl taking over the mic and singing. Somehow this turns Charlie on as he sleeps with her in his office right after.

The show's main character, Hannah, played by Lena Dunham may be having the most trouble. Her OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) is starting to get out of control. She is constantly counting and now has reverted to sticking Q-tips in her ears. The latter results in a visit to the ER after she stuck the Q-tip to far into her ear. She then happens to run into her ex Adam on the street while she isn't wearing any pants. For anyone who has ever run into an ex while not at their best, it can be a terrifying moment. This whole downward spiral for Hannah was just exasperated by the fact that her e-book, now two weeks into her month deadline, wasn't well received up until this point.

Besides Charlie, the one character who was on a positive roll was Adam. Unfortunately he ran into Hannah while attending a party with his new girlfriend Natalia. After talking with Hannah for a minute, this apparently leads Adam to drink at the party again. Adam then reverts back to his old ways and embarks on a hard-to-watch sex scene with Natalia.

Things aren't much better for Ray and Shoshanna. Ray must be starting to suspect something is up with Shoshanna as she clearly isn't into the relationship anymore. She still doesn't tell him of her cheating, instead choosing to say that she "held hands" with the doorman.

There is one more episode in season two of "Girls." There are a number of story lines left hanging in the balance, which character are you most interested in seeing in the season finale?
