Hilarie is so good in Season 5

I'm rewatching Season 5 for the first time in years and Hilarie Burton is blowing my mind with how good her performance is.

Obviously, there's the "you said it to me, you said it to the world and I wish you never had" scene where she's throwing Lucas's book at him in the Red Bedroom Records' offices, but I'm on 5x08 and the scene with just her at her mother's grave is incredible too.

I know Peyton - as well as all the characters in Season 5 bar Brooke, to be honest - makes some questionable decisions this season and throughout the show, but in this stretch of episodes, Hilarie's is probably the strongest performance. It's definitely her best season so far.
