Danielle does not deal with it well. Despite the effusive apologies, she snottily tells the staff they can buy her a new dress when they ask if there is anything they can do. She heads off to the bathroom and pouts and moans in there for a very long time.
Melissa is meeting Brock who is a professional baseball player. She likes his look and thinks it’s hot that he’s a professional athlete. But then she says that all her friends say baseball player’s are assholes, so she’s worried.
For Pete’s sake, use your own mind and form your own opinions, girl!
Melissa does a great job of answering Brock’s rude and direct question of why is she single by saying she hasn’t met the right person yet. She’s doing well and even when she’s dripping with bouillabaisse, she jokes that she loves the mingling scent of shrimp and perfume. But Brock does nothing to help her out except laugh and say he thought it was kind of funny.
Your friends were right, Melissa. Don’t listen to me.
Quick shots of Stephanie getting dumped on and jumping in shock. She seems to take it well. Shalana gets lucky and doesn’t get more than a drink tossed on her shoulder, but Aubrey shows some personality by insisting she finish her drink and standing with her as he shows empathy for the situation.
Despina also seems to do a good job. She realized what was going to happen almost before it happened thank to her experience as a waitress and when it does happen she is still smiling as her underwear swims in fish sauce.
The bad news is that she’s not wearing her own dress.
This is what I love about this show. It’s so great to have a reality show where no one is out to get anyone else. These girls are all in this together and super supportive. They lend each other clothes, help each other decide what to wear and I’m guessing give styling advice since Danielle is starting to look more and more lovely with straight hair and non-orange ho clothes.
Speaking of, our lovely lady is still stomping around the bathroom too upset to continue her date. She comes out and tells Corey she can’t handle it and pulls the plug.
Even Corey seems shocked that she can’t handle a bowl of spilled soup.
I feel bad for her kid and the messes he made as a baby. This girl needs to take herself less seriously and gain some perspective.
It’s the next morning and time for Steve to pay the piper. By now all the girls have talked about their horrible date mishap and realized the whole thing was a set up. Steve explains the purpose was to have them show their men they can handle a situation where things go wrong.
He compliments Donna on keeping her date from decking the manager while making light of the situation. Chris comes on in confessional and says he’s very attracted to a woman who can handle that kind of problem with such dignity.
Yay! I want to kiss him, he likes me and
I bet he has a maid to wash his towels.
Surprisingly, Steve says they all did well but Danielle had the hardest time. I guess it’s true she didn’t go all Bad Girls Club on the server, but she was still bitchy and cancelled her date. Still, apparently Corey thought she handled the situation well. Corey was impressed because he figured she might just disappear and leave him at the table to wonder what happened to his date. So the fact that she returned and told him she couldn’t handle things scored her big points in his book. He wants to see her again.
Good news, Ms. Low Standards; it would appear
you are dating Mr. Low Expectations.

I had to slam my head on the coffee table when Stephanie said she didn’t expect to fall for someone on this show. Sweetie, I love you, but you came on a show hosted by a MATCHMAKER who spends the entire season of said show setting up women with potential partners! Have you not watched the other seasons?!?!?!
I adore all the girls this season. It is so easy for us to sit and (mentally) tell them what they should and shouldn’t be doing, but I know that I really don’t completely understand what they are going through. This group, I think more than any other, has really been open and vulnerable– willing to expose their failings in order to heal.
I want every one to succeed.
But I DO have a couple of faves.
BTW does anybody have inside information about lip augmentation gone wrong? I feel so sorry for lovely Steph, and hope that her lips will somehow deflate. Also, I have seen several poor women with botched lip jobs and I really hope the problem can be fixed. I worry about things like that.
I feel bad for poor Melissa. Its got to be difficult knowing that the guy is nice, but that you’re completely not interested, and having to constantly defend your disinterest to everyone you know. A guy could do everything right, like Chris, and still only give you friendly feelings. And her agreement for another date is like that girl who’s boyfriend proposes in public – she says yes to not embarrass him in front of everyone, but when they get home it may be a different story.
Not sure what Melissa is expecting, but I do know it is never going to happen for her with her attitude. Steve needs to kick her to the curb as she sucks. I thought Donna was going to fail, and look at her turn around.
Danielle, stop the yo-yo behavior. I want to like you.
Snowshoe that is why I love this show. It is positive, up-lifting and helping to those on it and those watching. God did I just type that? I need a drink. Compared to the tearing down on the housewives and other shows, this is a nice change of pace.
Luscious, thanks for recapping.
Love your post. It’s so nice to read something positive. And the screen-shot of Donna made me laugh. Too funny!
Stephanie kinda pissed me off. She sits there with Good John and he’s all like “ummm you got something to tell me about the other night” so she tells him about her hook up which I applaud her for, but in the next breath she says “so I want a commitment from you right now…” Stephie honey, timing is everything. Is she that clueless and self centered that she feels that in one sentence she can tell him she had her tongue down some douchebag’s throat and in the next say I want a long term promise? Poor guy is still trying to digest the fact that you were acting like some coed on a Girls Gone Wild video, you are not commitment material at the moment… She really had no right to become all hurt and offended. He was right to tell her at the end to stay and finish bootcamp and work on herself. If not she will be a black hole of insecurity that no man can fill.
As stupid as it was for stephanie to ask for a commitment after that, it seemed like she was looking for a change of subject- anything to distract him! She probably could have picked a whole bunch of other topics, the weather maybe??
I thought that neither of them expressed their feelings very well vocally but while they were talking John had his hand either around her back or on her leg so I still have hope for them. It seemed very sweet. Hopefully neither of them f*cks it up.
But I love your recaps Lucious! Thanks!!
