Recap: Beverly Hills Nannies


Heifer finishes by saying her goal is to have that freezer completely filled up.  Again I ask, why?  And what is the kid living on since you’re storing all of it?  CPS, please check this out!

More milk than the dairy exhibit at the county fair.  Moo.

Commercial. 

We return to Heifer’s house.  She wants Justin to walk the dogs, and there is discussion about a “choke chain”, which Heifer insists is important for safety, and Justin insists is cruel.  (It’s for the dogs, not Justin).  At one point Heifer’s standing screaming across the street “If I can’t trust you with my dog, how can I trust you with my baby?”  Super cool and classy for BH!  Later, Justin makes the crazy circle finger, Heifer flips him off, and he cleans the dogs’ paws.  So it’s a love-hate relationship.  Or hate-hate.

Over to Lucy, who’s talking to Amanda and Kristin.  Lucy didn’t get her last job, so she’s interviewing tomorrow.  Kristin tells her to show up with an overnight bag packed.  That’s what I do on my dates!  Nothing like showing up with a little suitcase on wheels.  Lets the guy know right away, sooner or later I’m going to go all Glenn Close up in his face.

My role model.

There’s then lofty talk about these gals upholding the image of their families.  Hate to break it to ya, sisters, but you are a massive fail.

Everyone then goes into Lucy’s bedroom to assess interview clothes.  Amanda shares that she’ll take Kristin’s advice to a point, but is “not shutting what I am”.  Or learning English, apparently.  We end the scene with someone saying stilettos are threatening to the husband.  Only if you kick him in the crotch when he tries to grope you!

Over to Amber who – on the first day – asks for time off.  Not just any time off, she wants Ari’s wedding day off.  Which is in 5 days.  Which is one of the reasons she was hired.  Apparently Amber is being given the opportunity to interview Nicki Minaj in a mall. 

Commercial.

We return to Amber and Ari.  By this point, Ari clearly is upset.  Her body language, tone of voice, facial expression – every one of them is telegraphing THIS IS NOT OK.  Oblivious as always, Amber thanks Ari for letting her go, and says Kristin will fill in for her.  Oh, and Amber will get Minaj’s autograph for Ari. 

If she could move her face, she would so look angry.

If one of my employees asked for time off at a critical time, much less their first day, I would tell them they can have as much time off as they want, because unemployed people have the whole day to do whatever they want!

Oh, and Amber needs Spanx instead of that thong.  Clingy skirt + cellulite = yikes!

    I sure hope for Justin’s sake that he gets the job with the Faulks. Heifer Mom is a horror. Did I spell that right? ;-D

    As one who struggled to produce enough milk for my now-8 month old baby (only ever reaching 50% of her needs despite trying EVERYTHING), I was a bit envious of how much milk that one lady could produce.

    Breastmilk can be stored in a regular freezer for 3-6 months and in a deep freezer for 6-12 months and maintain quality. One of my friends who produced a lot of milk was able to stop breastfeeding at 9 months and still give her baby breast milk for another 3 months. But my sister-in-law had a whole deep freezer full of milk… then hurricane hit and she was without power for so long that it all melted. Now THAT’s a time when you’d cry over milk.

    @ NatPatBen — Didn’t anybody tell your sister-in-law that the best thing to do with a freezer full of melting breast milk is bust out the ice cream maker and make breast milk ice cream for the whole neighborhood?

    I’m totally kidding. Been reading a bit too much stfuparents lately.

    Haha, I would just like to say, I met Kristin about 8 years ago and most definitely got stoned outta her “lipstick” shaped one hitter with her, that amongst several other funny memories I have of her make me laugh thinking she has ended up a reality star on a show about nannies, amazing!

    Do we eventually get to follow the other nannies around or are they suppose to be eye candy for us? Amanda seems like fun and I am shocked she hasn’t found one of the many transplants from the mid-west to work for.

    Is Ari insane? Does she not eat herself? I just started watching the Real Housewives of South Dublin and there is a couple on there just as scary as Ari and her hubby. Yucky looking fake female with older questionable looking man.

    I liked the Faulks and hopes Justin lands that family. Does Kristin take any money from the other nannies?
