BUCKWILD Recap: Slippery Nipples (‘N Slide)


Ashley hilariously calls out how awkward the situation is, Salwa mutters some kind of half-apology, and Jesse is an ass. So Salwa leaves the table in frustration, followed quickly by Shae and Jesse, who berate her for making things up. Salwa calls Shae a dumb bitch for not believing her, and they go back-and-forth with a “Yes you did!” “No I didn’t!” Salwa is upset and crying, and Anna consoles her that she did the right thing by telling the truth.

Episode 4: Paint the Town Hyperglow

We get to see the tanning salon where Ashley and Anna work, and maybe it’s just me, but it doesn’t seem very hygienic. I feel like it’s the kind of place that says it’s a tanning salon on the sign out front, but the cops are going to bust in any second and arrest everyone for drugs or prostitution. Cara texts Anna that she’s on her way back, and then shows up at the salon. She apologizes to Anna for using her bed without asking, and then just taking off. Anna graciously forgives her. 

 “It seems like I’m apologizing, but I will keel you!”

Cara and Tyler are hanging out, when she gets an invite from a promoter she used to work for about a party called Hyperglow. It’s a huge party in Morgantown, and she says making the trip there will be a big deal for her and Tyler. Anna’s coming home soon, so Tyler suggests he and Cara go lie in her bed and wait for her to come home. Actually pretty funny. Props, Tyler. When she does come home, Anna finds it hilarious too, and Cara tells Anna that Tyler was scared of her – and Anna claims she’s never been mean in her life. 

Ha! I think “Willy Wonka” would beg to differ.

Shain’s hanging out on his front porch with Joey and Shae, holding his rifle, looking for a squirrel or rabbit or something. Why? What did furry woodland creatures ever do to you, Shain? Genius Joey sticks his finger in a bug zapper. Good to know that if I want to deter flies AND the Justin Beavers of the world, I simply need to install a bug zapper. Not to be outdone, Shain sticks his finger in there, too. 

Bursting with excitement, Cara tells them about the VIP room at Hyperglow. Shain immediately pisses all over her parade, because he doesn’t know what that is and he doesn’t see the point in leaving town just to go drink somewhere. Joey doesn’t want to go if Shain doesn’t want to go. And Shae says that Jesse J already has romantic plans for her. Cara mopes a little, and Shain tells her that if she touches the bug zapper, he’ll go. Personally, I would have been happy to just leave him at home, his only company the bug zapper, but Cara complies, and electrocutes herself. Have you ever been electrocuted? That shit hurts.

    Wow, Charleston must have really hated this show. Charleston is actually bigger than Morgantown (at a whopping 50k people) and they live right outside of that city. I guess since they couldn’t get permits to film anywhere there and had to go to the next closest “big city”, which is several hours away.

    Of course Morgantown is a big college and party town, so they probably have more options there. I guess Cara kept her apartment there? I’m guessing she just moved to Sissonville for the summer to film the show.

    Great recap!

    Yeah, I also got a hoot out of the fact that Morgantown was called a big city! However I do question the population/demographic information. Does it include the students at the college or not? West Virginia University’s enrollment alone is just under 30K. To me, the local population didn’t feel like another 30K…but it very well could have been. But for West Virginians; Morgantown is big (it’s all relative). Also Morgantown has grown by leaps in bounds in the past 20 years. When I first went to school there in the late 90s, they had a little tiny Wal-Mart and a mall that had 1-level Sears and JcPenny’s stores where you had to order anything but clothes out of the catalog. There were no major electronics retailers, few big chain sit down dining restaurants, and BET only came on cable 9 months out of the year. Today there is a whole new mall and shopping in a part of town called \Star City\ and a \proper\ Super Wal-Mart. I’m amazed at how much traffic there is around Morgantown now (due to the increased enrollment at the school) and the revamping of the downtown area. There a lot more places for students to work now and things to do outside of clubs! It is what it is, but I’m really jealous and living in Morgantown now seems like a piece of cake since I’ve been there.

    Oh, and for people in Morgantown, their city is not \big\. If people talk about going to a big city, they are usually referring to Pittsburgh (1 hour north) or maybe Washington D.C. (it’s 3 hours away….but bigger, more accessible airport than Pittsburgh has).

    Nice recap!

    Cara was amusing in her take-charge way at the end of the night. “You dragged in two girls but no shirt, CALL A CAB,” and it was nice of her to offer the girl gas money home, even if it was out of jealousy. It seemed like a sisterly, fellow-female thing to do.

    @Lady -I think at some point the screen said that they were at Cara’s friend’s apartment. And they’ve pretty much said on the show, without directly saying it, that she doesn’t know any of these other people but MTV hired her to be in this show.
    @Shona-I have no idea if they factored in the student population or not, but I would expect probably not, because you’re usually talking about people who pay taxes, year-round, in that town, right? It is HILARIOUS to me that Morgantown only got BET 9 months of the year. I mean, if there are no white people in Morgantown, fine, but it’s not like white people aren’t ALLOWED to watch BET. What if I live there, and I’m white, and I like 106&Park because it’s pretty much the only place to see music videos anymore?
    Caitlin – yes, I liked Cara a LOT more after that. Maybe it’s because I identify. In college, I was never the one having the big night full of drama, I was the one taking care of everyone else.

    LOL – well to be fair, that was only the case in ’99 & maybe 2000. Then it started coming on year ’round. I started at WVU in the summer of ’99. Had my cable hooked up. Dialed in the channel for BET and saw a blank screen. I promptly called Comcast and that was their response. I went home in summer of 2000, so I can’t attest to what happened that year. But I know come 2001, it was on all year long :-D .

    Hella jealous at that water slide. Am I wrong for vicariously reliving my youth through these kids? So far so good. My only question, was Anna wearing an engagement ring? Do girls now where rings on their ring finger for no reason?

    I guess they haven’t learned “you leave with who you showed up with and all is good”.

    They got their via cabs, but who was driving them home from the bar?

    Nice to see some parental guidance.

    Thanks for the recap Dashley.

    Need some clarification – did Jesse J just type out the text on his phone and show it to Salwa or send her a text? Why did they go to his house in the first place if their friend wasn’t around? What does that say about them as “friends”?

    Sadly Sawla will learn that you can’t tell your girlfriends information like that because they will normally side with the person giving sex. Not sure why but they just do then everything ends up awkward. Just be there for your friend.

    The party looked like a lot of fun. I enjoyed seeing Shain in that element. He was definitely nervous at first but I am sure his alcohol intake caused him to loosen up.

    Where was Tyler going to hook up with the random girl? The house was full and the girl was probably a little bit more sober and realized that she did NOT want to be in the situation anymore.

    @Labowner, I think JJ typed the text but didn’t send it.

    I promised myself I wouldn’t get into this show, and of course they had to run a marathon. Thanks. It almost has a Jersey Shore season 1 feel to it. Like their ridiculous and all, but kind of endearing and likable. Makes me want to be 21 and living in West Virginia.

    The kids have some charm about them for the most part, Shain in particular. As obviously scripted and fake as the show is, it does have an odd charm about it that I don’t think can be fully explained
