Question
There was an episode in Paris where I believe Dylan was searching for an artists home that was difficult to find and off the beaten path.  What or whose house was this?

Answer
Hello Carin,

Dylan was looking for the home of French novelist and playwright Honoré de Balzac. However, his search for the home was not shown on camera. He mentioned looking for it in a conversation with Brenda when they spent the day fishing in the 4th season episode "The Little Fish".

Brenda & Donna also looked for the house and found it when they went to Paris during the early 3rd season in an episode that aired during the summer of 1992. My apologies, I don't remember the exact episode their search took place in. I do remember them bickering at each other during their search right before Donna pointed out that they had found it. Unfortunately, it was closed that day and they would have to come back another day to tour it.

During Brenda & Dylan's conversation and how they both looked for Balzac's house, neither would reveal how long it took them to find it and agreed that looking for it was the fun part because there wasn't much to see once you did find it.

Take care,
Crystal

Expertise

I have seen all 10 seasons of 90210 and have every episode on tape to locate answers. My expertise is on the first 6 seasons and the characters Brenda and Dylan, but I will attempt to answer any question pertaining to the show. Please no scene/dialogue questions because they are very time-consuming and frustrating. However, I will be happy to clarify misunderstood dialogue due to whispering and such if I'm able to. I will attempt to answer any song question for the original airdates and syndication. NO DVD SONG QUESTIONS PLEASE. Please see my "Life Experience" in my profile for song question updates, it may pertain to your question.

Experience

I have every single episode on tape to find the answers. I watched and taped the show religiously. (All requests for copies of my videotapes/episodes will be declined.)
Update: The song used in "Crunch Time" during David's meth addiction is "Living In A Fantasy" by The Rainbow Band. Many thanks to the fellow 90210 Fan that contacted me with the info when they tracked it down. Also, the song used in "One Wedding and a Funeral" that Dylan & Toni dance to is "Nobody Knows Me" by Lyle Lovett. Same song is used during the scene where Dylan is crying while holding the wedding dress and then kitten. David & Donna's wedding song is "Spend My Life With You" by Eric Benet & Tamia. Same song was Steve & Janet's wedding song.
