After an “only in BH” montage, talk turns, as it always does, to excrement and there’s a discussion of colonics.  Lucy says she felt the BH women had some “inner secret” and she wanted some of that.  Not so much an inner secret once the colonic is done, is it?

Then the discussion turns to hair extensions, and everyone makes fun of Ari.  We learn that Little Miss Hick Town pays $40 for a haircut and uses Sun-In on her hair, and that when she had the makeover a couple of eps back, they only colored the bottom 2 inches of her hair so she could keep using the Sun-In.  I totally did not realize they still sold Sun-In, or that anyone used it.  It apparently comes in “Tropical Breeze” and “Lemon Fresh”.  I have Miss Hick Town pegged as a Lemon Fresh gal, what do you think?

Now we discuss money – what’s next, religion? – and Kristin confirms she’s an avaricious bitch.  I may have paraphrased there.  Amber talks about how Kristin scoffed at a pizza and movie rental date Amber had.  To be fair, that’s not really a date.  I wonder if this guy even knew Amber, or if she just bumped into him at Blockbuster and he couldn’t shake her.

And now we begin to discuss Ari’s wedding, and specifically the Minaj interview.  We now learn what we had suspected, Minaj doesn’t know who the hell Amber is, and there was never an “interview” per se.  It’s apparently part of Amber’s second job, which Kristin calls a “hype crowd girl”, which predictably offends Amber.  Gotta say, Kristin’s right on this one.   And yes, hell didjust freeze over.  Kristin ends this segment by saying Amber’s character sucks.  Eloquent as always, our skanky little carrot.

And ladylike, too.  Why, I can almost see her parasites.

Commercial.

We return to the nannies and the moms.  Ross asks what makes a BH mom so different and Ari says it’s because they are so busy shopping and such.  Or money, that’s my answer.  They discuss Ari’s hair, and she says she fired her hair stylist after the series started to air.  For some reason, Drunky whispers that Ari’s hair is a wig.  Ross then brings up wages, and asks Miss Hick Town if she’s still making $15 an hour; she is.  Heif says $15 is the going rate among her circle for nannies.  Justin says they shouldn’t consider any other industry when employing a domestic or nanny, and it’s hard for a nanny to hear the employer can only pay $15 when that employer is wearing designer clothes.  Good point.

They then question Heif about the beer she drank, and she explains she has one, only at the end of the day, as it supposedly helps the milk or the quantity or something.  She goes on to slam Justin’s perceived inadequacies.  So it’s same old Heif.

Looking a tad wistful.  You miss Justin, don’t you?

    I have to ask. What is with the pull a few inches of the top of your hair away from your face look? Is that because they are too afraid of bangs? Don’t look good with them? It looks very silly to me.

    Back to reading

    I have to ask, are you friends with Ari or something? You basically glossed over the fact that she was a giant superficial cunt and a terrible person. And for someone so obsessed with how people look her makeup last night was atrocious and her hair absolutely did look like a wig.

    Agreed, Scout, about Ari’s hair. If that wasn’t a wig, then she should sue someone for giving her the ugliest wig-looking hairdon’t ever.

    I hope that if there is a season 2, Kristin and Drunky will be gone, and it’ll be a Nanny/Lady Sitter company run by Scott, Amanda and Justin.

    Kristin and Ari are such a good match for each other! I bet she’d still be there too. If it wasn’t for this show. So she should go back.

    Then in season 2 Ari could call up Justin’s lady sitting rogues to do her makeup and plan parties etc. You know his company will be super popular. So his big challenge every week can be finding somebody Kristin and Ari both like!

    Amber might not be 100% ready for the working world yet. But once she is she’ll be better suited to stuff like interviewing people than baby sitting. There might be some jobs Justin could send her on though.

    But on the condition that she moves back home 1st. So she can learn stuff like how to manage $. And not agreeing to a pay cut the day your car gets repo’d.

    I didn’t think Amber was all that bad. Kind of hard to defend her regarding the Nicki Minaj “interview that never was”, though…

    I TOTALLY agree with the posting that you must be friend’s with Ari. You completely bashed Amber, but didn’t call out Ari for her disgusting behavior. She seems like a really SHITTY person and I’m surprised that you just “glossed over” her awfulness.

    No, I don’t know Ari, have never met her and have no connection with her. I just liked her, that’s all. YMMV, which is why we welcome your comments!

    @PennyDreadful Hah yeah I thought you might be friends with her too since she has commented on this site before too. I liked her most episodes. I think she should fire whoever did her up for this show though, the get-up was pretty bad.

    I LOVE reunion shows with inexperienced reality stars, they divulge way more than they are supposed to and it makes me happy :)

    Uhmmm what was up with that email and the Cindy thing? One of my friends belives they actually slept together but I don’t think so. I just think she went WAY out of her way to embarrass the poor guy. It was a little weird how that was strung together.

    I am so so happy that Justin and Lindsey are bestest buddies who go on vacation together!

    Interested to see if there is a 2nd season and who ends up being on there.

    I feel bad for the shawn guy. He isnt on or off the show… just awkwardly there.

    JP I wondered if the families that Shayla and Sean work for said no to filming and that is why they didn’t get much air time.

    Why does Jenny look so familiar to me? Ari – you have tons of money. Why the cupie doll look? Heif you grew on me. You are harmless, but contain no filters. I see Tricia is in Heif’s circle of moms who think nannies should get paid around $15 an hour.

    So glad things worked out for Justin. I believe he fits so well because it is like his home growing up – he was the only boy. I am sure Marshall was iffy until he found out Justin is gay. No competition.

    Was Kristin pushed out of the nanny job at Cindy’s? Where is she currently working. Wonder why Ross didn’t ask her that.

    I hope after this airing Amanda is in high demand and gets another family that pays her more.

    Amber – wow you give shit to Kristin for bull shitting and you were doing the same thing. Tackey

    Professional tip – cut down on the drinking off hours. I know you like to unwind, but it seems that is all these nannies do in their free time.

    Is Lucy still with the nutty boy friend? I guess I could spy on her FB page, but too lazy.

    Congrats on your new show Penny. Please get rid of your cats stat if you start thinking about suicide. How crazy is that?

    Kirstin – if your story were true, way to advertise to every guy you got some nasty ass habits.

    Oh, damn. I’m going to finish reading the recaps and comments, but first I have to get something off my chest…PD, I’m stunned, even after watching Ari on the reunion show, you continue to find reasons to defend her – she’s a HORRIBLE human being, one of those nasty elitist twats who cares nothing about anyone but herself. Every single nanny appeared to feel the same way, and even Ross was obviously repulsed by her. He pretty much came right out and said it.

    Okay, I should go back to reading. I just had to rant. I adore Amber and am fine with her crappy “reviews” in the recaps, but the Ari thing was too much :-)

    Oh, and I haven’t gotten to where its likely talked about in the recap, but I totes believe Maggie that that bitchy ass “I’ll ruin you” mother created drama for a invite next season. That woman’s another mean girl.

    Oh shit there’s one more thing (and apologies to all if this has been discussed in the ‘cap or comment), but Ari was obviously wearing a wig to the trained eye :-) It didn’t fit her very well, either.

    After seeing this season, with the big fat cherry on top being Kristen’s litter box story, why would anyone let her be responsible for who nannies their children??

    The reunion show made me warm up to Heif, but Ari was terrible. It was almost as if she tried extra hard to be an elitest jerk with the “cute accessory” comment and thought the other moms might back her.

    Jenny really looked like Jen Aniston’s much older sister that wears too much make up.

    It’s no wonder to me that Maggie and Kristen have been BFFs for so long….both seem like miserable human beings.

    @Layla good description of Jenny.

    Heif did end up being an alright lady. Still would not want to be her child though!

    I think Justin gets paid more than Amanda probably mostly because he looks after more kids than she does. When I babysit I have different rates for different numbers of kids so that would make sense in this situation too. One kid when the mom is around all the time isn’t that hard at all. Just because of the extra assistant stuff and the fact that it is BH, you would think that she would get paid at least $20 an hour though.

    Does anyone else think that Ari looked like one of the simpering girls who hang on Gaston in Beauty and the Beast? The plastic looking hair, the dress….
