We join Shae and Jesse on their surprise special date. At a bowling alley. Yeah, I was right before – he is definitely winging it. Shae doesn’t even like bowling because the rental shoes gross her out. Which is a little prissy, but speaks to the fact that Jesse doesn’t know how to do something romantic for her. She wonders out loud in a passive-aggressive way if her friends are having fun in Morgantown. Jesse B shows up and crashes the date, and tells Shae that Jesse J invited him. Shae is frustrated, and tells us that she wishes she could drive to Morgantown right now. 

Back at Hyperglow, all of Cara’s body paint has been rubbed or sweated off. Not sure which. And Anna runs into a friend of hers from summer camp that she’s known forever. We get it, they’re having a great time. Anna starts making out with her camp friend. Tyler is all up on a girl, and goes to buy her a drink. And then meets her boyfriend. Then he’s bummed out, tells Joey about it, and the same thing apparently just happened to Joey. While Anna and her camp friend are figuring out where they can go make out some more, the girl Tyler was trying to get with approaches him and wonders if she can keep hanging out with him. Her boyfriend is understandably uncomfortable with this situation, and they have some drama. He just leaves her, tells her to f*** off, and then we’re watching strangers hit him and call him a douchebag. I’m sorry, but these random characters are far more compelling than Shae and her douchebag boyfriend; why aren’t they on this show instead?

Back at the apartment where they’re all staying the night, Anna’s camp friend is suddenly all over Katie. And Katie’s just letting it happen. Cara points out that Anna was with him earlier, and then Anna just seethes with anger. Cara throws him out. Drama continues when Tyler’s girl from the party is still hanging out with them, and he’s convinced that Cara’s trying to keep them apart because she’s jealous, when really, she’s trying to figure out how to get the girl home safely. Tyler, even if the girl did want to hook up with you, Cara would have every right to be annoyed about it. 

Shain’s out cold – big night for him! – and Joey messes with him while he sleeps. 

I just realized this is a secret fear of mine, and also possibly why I like to live alone.

The next morning, the gang is doing the morning-after gossip thing, which I think is what I miss most about college. Salwa makes fun of Tyler for trying to break up the girl and her boyfriend. Cara tells us her crush on Tyler is over. Shain tells us he had a blast, just going with the flow. 

So what do you think, Gasmi? Is Jesse J both the worst name and the worst boyfriend ever? Was Salwa right when she accused Shae of being a “dumb bitch?” And if you jump off a bridge, and no one is around to see it, are you still a man? Can’t wait to hear what you think!

    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
