So after Stephanie is finally able to pry Erica out of Kevin’s bed, Erica seeks solace in the only other person in the house that understand her plight and embarrassment – Joy. I’m pretty sure this has happened to her plenty, too. Except she was probably way more dramatic about her departure and the guy had to literally throw her out of his room.
If I’m not getting any, neither are you, Gene.
Next, they have a drunken toga party which turns into a big deal about the desperately horny drunk girl being shunned by Kevin. While Kevin and Erica talk about it outside, Mike tells everyone else that she needs to give it up, because Kevin’s not in the least interested. Joy sees this as the perfect opportunity to pounce all over Mike. She makes a mountain out of a molehill and winds up bringing up Kevin’s obligation to his own daughter to treat all women with respect. Yeah, that’s so a whole other ballpark. Gene tells her to back off, because she’s crossing the line. She bolts to pout, per usual, so Gene doesn’t even take that bait and goes to Stephanie’s room.
Stephanie and Gene lie in the same bed to discuss what just happened and Joy, acting as mature as ever, pulls a Mrs. Kravitz (from Bewitched for you young’uns).
Next step: Tire slashing.
She finally confronts them, which makes Stephanie burst into laughter. At least Stephanie isn’t in on all of this chick stuff. So, Joy bolts to sleep on the couch so that everyone in the house can see that she’s upset since no one is checking on her. Erica takes that bait which leads to Joy telling her everything Mike said. Erica thinks it’s necessary to approach Mike in front of Kevin, which is stupid. But, we’re not done yet, because it’s about to get stupidierer. Joy walks in once the pot is boiling sufficiently and turns up the heat. She starts in on how Mike had no business speaking on behalf of Kevin and yada yada yada balh blah blah. Erica facepalms, because even she realizes this has all gone to shit for no reason. All she really wanted to was to find out if what Mike said was true or if Mike was just being a fauxhawk wearing shit stirrer. It’s probably both, Erica!
Andrea and Holly come back up the tubes and as everyone knows, Holly is gone. Sorry to say “I told ya so!” but I did. The suck of your personality and blah blah blah. The first thing Andrea wants to know is who voted for Kevin. Kevin and Mike tell Andrea that Jeff sold out Gene because he wants Gene and Joy the hell outta here. I like Gene for now. Why can’t we just boot Joy?
In another room, Gene, Joy, and Jeffy worry about team captains. Joy wonders if the viewers are getting tired of her yelling at Mike, Kevin, Gene, the wall, whatever. Gene wonders if her drama-ness outweighs the fact that she makes Gene happy. Joy realizes that he’s saying that we would only keep her around to keep Gene happy, so she freaks out and leaves. She goes to the stationary bike to cry and pout, because that’s the only place left in the House of Suck that she hasn’t used as a venue for her attention-getting.

Hope you’re feeling better soon, at least before the weekend gets here. Great recap. I’m curious about the tube, so plan to watch it.
Even still… this show is better than Big Brother. Not by much. Although these people still feel like actors playing parts. At least they’re not pretending to be celebrities too.
Stephanie is my favorite and always has been, because she is regular and normal.
