Marie caps it off by dumping a bucket of water on him to wake him up, at which point the three of them scatter, but of course he goes straight after Marie. It turns out still-half-asleep running and water do not mix, as Big Red takes a tumble and then his sweet time getting up. Apparently him getting hurt wasn’t part of the plan, but he insists he’s okay.
Laura has now made friends with a tiny lizard-like creature, which she has named Leonard. This girl is seriously one of those who watches every “romantic” movie she can get her hands on and takes mental notes as if the behavior in those movies is what guys find adorable and will therefore like. And Trey is the sensitive jock who knows he’s supposed to like this stuff even though he finds it kind of weird.
“Isn’t that right, Leonard? Only the quirkiest girls make friends with tiny animals, and only the quirkiest girls ever find true love!”
Meanwhile, Marie helps Big Red get rid of the peanut butter in the shower as they crack jokes and flirt. I give it two more episodes before they hook up, max.
The roomies get ready (Laura impressing Latoya with her “boob bronzer” trick) and head to Paradise Point for dinner, which is on top of a mountain and has an excellent view. Shockingly, Laura finds it romantic. Once dinner is over, she’s leading Trey by the hand to the Ferris wheel, debating whether they should go in a pink or purple cart. Apparently he’s a little nervous, so she decides to shake the cart on him. Okay, that move is literally stolen EXACTLY from The O.C. She then spends the ride telling him that she likes him, and of course they end up kissing. Something tells me she didn’t watch past the first season of The O.C., or she wouldn’t be so eager to follow the path of Marissa Cooper.
Meanwhile, Brandon misses his opportunity to hang from the Ferris wheel bar and refuse to get down until Laura agrees to go out with him.
The girls are alone heading down from the mountain, and Laura naturally tells her standard romcom sidekicks about the Ferris wheel kiss. Marie continues to win me over by semi-sarcasticly exclaiming, “Tell us more!”
Finally, time for da club! Trey and Laura dance and make out, shocker. Swift and Latoya do some bumpngrind. Even Brandon makes a friend! She seems a little bitchy, but beggars can’t be choosers. Big Red is impressed with Brandon’s “game,” although it seems mostly like blind luck at this point. But THEN, some local tells Brandon to back off, which causes him to fly into such a rage that he pulls poor Swift away from the girl he was talking to because emo roomie needs some comfort.
Despite Swift and Latoya’s best efforts, Brandon is still angry when they leave, punching a sign for good measure and great preview material. Marie calls him out for being negative, earning a good old “you don’t know me!” style response. Marie can’t believe this is how they’re ending their first night out.
Something tells me the journal is going to get quite the workout tonight.
Trey decides to use assorted roomies and the confessional as his human journals, talking about his dad being in and out of jail and going to visit him as a kid. Well, now we know why Trey was picked for the show! They’re all impressed with how well he handles it.
Everyone finally makes it to bed, at which point RedRobb decides to go to sleep in Marie’s bed. When they wake up, seemingly minutes later, she decides to mess with him by saying they made out for an hour. He doesn’t believe her, but he wants to. And I’ve finally figured out who Marie reminds me of: Chelsea Handler. That is the real epiphany to take from this conversation.
Speaking of Chelsea, that is also the name of Trey’s “girl back home.” Oh man, can’t WAIT for this drama. He blahblahs about getting to know the other roomies, and declares it “funny” that everyone in the house is single and straight (good point, there isn’t even any questionable sexuality at this point). Chelsea does not find this to be a big deal. Trey tells us they decided not to have any titles, to “make it easier,” but it’s still hard knowing he left someone he cares about at home.
Dammit, Nemo, everyone’s looking for you! CALL YOUR FATHER!

Max was HOT with a capital H! It’s not just you
So, am I the only one who thought the exchanges with that Alyssa chick were really strange? My first thought when they got came up to Brandon and warned him not to touch her if she wasn’t his girlfriend was that she was some sort of prostitute trying to run a scam on him. She was wayyyyyyyy to hot to actually be interested in him. There’s only two reasons she’d let him put his hands all over her like that…she’s a hooker or she’s an MTV groupie looking for screen time. Hmmm, guess those two reasons after that different after all :p
Laura has got to stop it with the babytalk. Maybe it’s a result of her being a “late bloomer” as she likes to say, but she flirts like a middle schooler! Next she’ll start pulling Big Shirley’s pigtails in the schoolyard :p
And, I LOVE Marie and RedRobb together. They need to give up the pretense of wanting other people and just do it!
Oh and Laura needs to take a hint. If you are straddling a guy and “massaging” his lower abs and he DOESN’T have a giant boner, he is clearly just not that into you.
I really like this season of RW so far. Totally over Trey and Laura. Well, maybe just the Laura part. She seems so desperate for Trey to like her. I’m like honey, look around. You’re on an isalnd with what seems like an unlimited booze supply. Live. It. Up.
LaToya is funny. She seems like a lot of fun, but maybe a smidge less fun than Chelsea Handler, I mean Marie. I agree ,VA, 2 more shows until RedRobb gets his P in Marie’s V. Those two are totally simmering, but not boiling yet.
jerseyj – “just not that into you” – no truer words have ever been spoken.
I was just starting to like Marie and you go up and compare her to Chelsea Handler! I HATE Chelsea Handler!!!!
I figured it out, Marie reminds me of the main girl (Brooke/Cody Horn) from Magic Mike.
Brandon’s cover for why that stuff was written in his journal is such bulls***. If that was really a journal for personal private stuff, he would have gone off the handle at his roommates. But nope, he had that lame excuse of ‘going to a dark place’.
These people are not that smart. There is a reason the producers gave you a ton of peanut butter, you can’t buy it down there. So what do they do, waste a couple of jars by dumping it on a roommate. Do you think MTV is going to spring for a house cleaner this season or is it going to get really bad and we will see all the tropical bugs take over?
@jerseyj – I totally agree with all your comments about Alyssa. It was clear that she was a camera whore.
Also, I have to say as nice as the vacation spot Real Worlds are, they get dull really quickly. There are only so many things that they can do and places they can go to drink. There aren’t that many clubs. bars, etc. When it is set in a larger city there is more to do and more interaction with outside people. Are they going to have to have jobs this time around?
I posted on another site that Laura needs to get some self respect. I don’t know how many different ways Trey can show that he is not into you like that. I love how after his speech calling her annoying and smothering she gets up and hugs him from behind. Like Bitch are you deaf. He wants to be left the F alone. Since Laura was a late bloomer I really dont think she has much experience with guys to read their behavior. Other than Trey pushing her down I don’t know how much clearer he can make it. And of course he is going to sleep with her but lets see, He’s a 24 year old guy on an Island with no other options and a girl throwing herself at him. I bet he bangs her then starts ignoring her and she gets bent out of shape about it cause shes inexperienced and dumb.
Initially I thought Trey and Latoya looked cute together too. He is way more fun without Laura hanging all over him. But since Trey released his racism/prejudice all over twitter it’ll be a cold day in hell before that would ever happen.
@carol, you are totally right, Marie does look like that chick from Magic Mike! She also looks like Chelsea Handler as VA pointed out.
@pawesl, what is this you are referring to about trey being racist? Share with those of us who aren’t on twitter
I think Toya is awesome, she and Marie are my two favorites so far. I think her and Swift are adorable together, he needs someone who will put him in his place like she does. I rooting for them to hook up at some point.
it was posted on vevmo. Not sure if I can post links but here you go

@Pawesl, clearly there are those who need an edit button before pressing send. What an embarrassing series of tweets! However, someone who would read someone’s personal journal and try to pass it off as “concern” also sends up a series of red flags.
I don’t really get all the LaToya love. She reminds me of any number of replacement women cast for The Bad Girls Club. She doesn’t seem all that smart and, while cute, is going the Naomi route (Las Vegas Two). LaToya will be someone I really want to like who becomes dick happy off the roommate they have a crush on for the majority of the season. RW is way too predictable.
I hate Laura, with a screaming burning passion. Maybe because she looks so much like ANTM’s Kayla (Cycle 14, I think, and All-Stars). Every time she’s making out with Trey, I keep thinking that she would prefer LaToya or Marie’s vagina.
Haven’t seen this last ep yet but the recap was great and actually has me looking forward to catching a re-run. As for Trey, I went looking for his racist rant before the link was posted but yeah he tweets waaayyyy too much. While going through his time line, though, I noticed that he seems to tweet Latoya the most of all his cast mates. They seem to be really good friends, exchanging ‘luv yas’ often and such. Not that having a close black friend negates racism, just saying, I’m no willing to stamp him (or people in general) as racist based on tweets, texts, quotes, or other things that may be taken out of context or easily misconstrued. Maybe he is and maybe he isn’t but I for sure can’t say I’ve seen unequivocal proof of that
*hides under desk in fear of negative feedback*
I also have to add that there’s something about Swift that annoys me. Not that I think he’s a bad guy but he reminds me of other guys with physical shortcomings who overcompensate by talking big. All that ‘I’ll only wife an 8 or up but I’ll sleep with a 7′ stuff was such a turn off. What makes him think so called 7′s would even want him he’s like 5 foot nothing.
He also has an annoying tendency of referring to himself as papi swift on twitter. . . :-I
I would not call hm racist but he is definitely prejudiced.
@Derek… I’m confused… Can you explain more your reasoning for comparing Toya to a girl that’s typically cast for Bad Girls Club? Knowing Toya personally and also having watched the first two episodes, I’d have to say she doesn’t display any of the characteristics of girls that are typically cast for the “Bad Girls Club.”
I love Chelsea Handler. Compare away.
You summed up Brandon in the best possible way: “horrifyingly awkward”. @jerseyj, I also pondered the prostitute-ibility of that girl, but at one point there is some allusion to her only being there for a bit so I’m assuming she’s a spring breaker who…….already tried out for the Real World and didn’t make it. But you’re so right, what that guy said about her the first night was really weird.
Thank you for the throwback “Was it yours to open up, you stupid bitch?” Bahahaha! Made my day!
@Captain, to clarify, LaToya reminds me of a BGC replacement girl in terms of appearance. In terms of what’s been on screen, as I mentioned earlier, she’s giving me a Naomi vibe. And, after Naomi’s chasing down of RoyLee, the pregnancy scare, and her horrifying clingy nature on the most recent challenge, I’m extremely skeptical of LaToya. I don’t know what she’s done in the two aired episodes to warrant the gasmii love, but that’s the joy of the comments section, I guess.
@Derek I have to say I don’t get BGC replacement or Naomi from Latoya. If anything, Laura looks more like a BGC girl in her style of dress and her koolaide red dyed hair. (anyone remember sydney who did love games?).
As far as the Naomi comparison, Latoya thus far seems unimpressed by any of the guys in the house, least of all Swift’s wanna be smooth guy facade. She seems to be enjoying his friendship while putting him in his place the way Naomi never did with Leroy (not that there was ever a need to).
I don’t actually see her hooking up with anyone this season, or if at all I’d say it would be someone outside of the house. Maybe there’s something you noticed that I missed though. I’d say she’s one of the roomies I do like, but I can’t say any of them has earned my love yet
@pawesl also I’m totally with you on Laura’s lack of self respect and/or experience with the opposite sex. I felt second hand annoyance when she was hanging all over trey on the boat and hugged him from behind after he told her to back off. Seems like a sweet person but also annoyingly nice and affectionate. I don’t see that pairing lasting too long
Tardy to the party, but wanted to add my 2 cents…
I don’t think MTV was very fair to Brandon. He never had a chance. Maybe in the actual real world, but not in this one, where the chicks are hot and the dudes are buff. He’s just…normal looking, def. not what I would consider attractive w/ all the tats and huge ear holes and AWFUL wardrobe. It’s like MTV is trying to push him back into hard drugs and cutting.
LaToya (Jackson) is my favorite so far. I am sure next week I will hate her, but for now she seems cool and funny and says what’s on her mind, but not in an asshole way.
Marie’s accent is already on my nerves. Sheesh.
Ummmm, I want to know who’s sparkly pants Trey was wearing.
I am confused about Trey and Laura (and I agree w/ all, they are annoying as hell). At first, Trey said Laura “was not typically the type of girl he went for.” THEN, later, he tells Laura that she reminds him of his “girl back home.” Poor Laura – she looks pretty pathetic, but also, shame on Trey for totally leading her on!!!!
Also, I don’t know about Trey being a racist, per say. He just seems like a giant dick stain. Just b/c you have a friend of a different race doesn’t give you carte blanche to say whatever the fuck you want to. Also, if he was trying to be funny, he failed harder than Wes comparing himself to a Greek God.
Marie looks and talks like Jan from the movie Grease. Everytime there is a tight close-up of her all I can hear in my head is “Brusha Brusha Brusha”. For the record, my gaydar was on high alert for Max and he was a camera ho too – he just needed an extra 15 minutes.
Laura is a stage 5 clinger. Paula Walnuts is more demure and descreet.
Trey trying so hard for that street cred is truly a rebel without a cause. The pensive staring into the horizon tormented moments while Laura clings on to his back made me throw up in my mouth. I can’t quit you!
Swift aka Lift definately has a Nepolean complex and much more overcompensating to come.
Toya is OK her super enthusiam is good for now.
Whahdon is a hot mess. Have never seen anybody with so many identites and flipping so quickly from each one depending on what he thinks you want him to be. Petualant 5 year old, Big time pimp banging da ho’s, misunderstood rebel (Trey’s giving him some competiton here hence resentment), Reflective poet addicted to bettering himself, Destructive demon, and best of all Kiss Ass Kyaker catchin some tasty waves and schoolin his homies!
KICK ASS Kyaker – sorry
OMG, Consider! When Brandon (Whahdon – LOL) stalked away from da club the second night, and said, “I guess I’ll always be the one flying solo (or something to that affect),” I wanted to punch him.
Holy shit the anologies are awesome!
@Consider…Nice pickup on the Walnuts comment
I just love that Latoya Jackson’s name is, Latoya Jackson. For me, it’s the little things in life. The only BCG thing I can pick up on her is a little Willmarie but that’s it so far. Captain…doth thou protest too much? Could you and Toya be in a relationship??? Just asking.
I have to ask this question, is that REALLY Trey’s Twitter? Or could it be one of the countless, name less fakes cause, call it or don’t call it what you want but, it’s definitely fucked up IMHO. I just did quit him. Gross.
Plock good point on Whandon ( I like that name), maybe MTV couldn’t find the gay, transexual, polyamarous stunt person they wanted so they settled for The Whahhhhndo. Or, maybe he’s repressing his homosexuality and has been cutting and self medicating b/c it’s not exactly socially acceptable to be gay in rough and tough “southie”
Wait a minute! What the hell am I doing reading into the RW like it has some purpose or wants to show people in depth and is still some great social experimental think tank. They’ll all fuck, fight and fuck some more and that’s, that.
I do think it sucks they are on an island of their own but, I think the reason why they don’t have their own beach is b/c they would never have to leave and interact with other humans. I don’t care for the destination RW’s myself. They are about as exciting to watch as Zashley going to the gym. Just MO though. We shall see. Maybe the tides will turn once Ginge starts beating the crap out of himself.
I couldn’t make it past “Was it yours to open, you stupid bitch?” without commenting. Hilarious throwback from RW Miami! I wish MTV would re-air the best seasons.
@gypsy- BAHAHAH. no
Let’s say I have an affiliation to cast members on both shows (work related) … so, the comparison seemed off to me in terms of comparing someone cast on Real World as someone cast on Bad Girls Club.
And knowing what I know, I would tend to believe that is Trey’s true twitter account… but I know nothing about twitter, so who knows!
Im just here to see if any of the real world faithful know the song playing while Trey and Laura are having the awkward morning after bed situation in episode 3. It’s just a beat but I cant get it out of my head and it isn’t on any of the songfinders for the episode online. Any help would be very much appreciated…
