Tough Love NO Recap: Bayou Bellylaughs

To make matters worse for Melissa, she doesn’t have a date and after her cricket inducing performance, she has to sit at a table all alone. But Steve has a surprise guest.

Coming next to the stage is Melissa’s Chris that she passed on.

This takes serious balls!

Melissa looks a little wary but all the other girls are screaming like mad that Chris is coming on stage. Chris tells Melissa that ever since the first date he hasn’t been able to stop thinking about her.

I’m gonna make an idiot of myself on stage
until you agree to have another date with me.

This is so awesome, even I’ll date you!

Melissa, I may be 3’7, but that doesn’t mean I won’t
kick your ass if you turn this boy down.

After Chris falls to his knees and screams at the top of his lungs, Melissa finally asks him to come down off the stage and spend the evening with her. What an amazing thing to have happen! I hope she understands that stuff like this is not normal.

This is a very special guy.

The show is over and now the couples are mingling. Donna is have a great time with her Chris. But since there are two Chris’ now, to avoid confusion,

We’re going to call Donna’s date George Herbert Walker.

There’s trouble in paradise for our young lovers Stephanie and Good John. It would seem they’ve been having awkward silence as we cut to John saying to Stephanie the others have more to talk about because they are just learning about each other. They agree they have more to learn about each other too and Steph asks John what else would he like to know about her. He says he’s wondering what happened at Bourbon Heat. Ruh roh.

Confessing to this would be way scarier than the stand up.

I’m still completely grossed out how this pig was shoving his tongue down Stephanie’s throat while scanning the room.

Stephanie finally musters up the courage and admits she got extremely drunk and made out with a random guy.

Someone’s not thrilled with this news.

Things get awkward for them and Stephanie does a great job of nailing the coffin shut by following up her confession with a request to get some kind of commitment from Good John.

Is the sun setting on this romance?

It’s the end of the evening and the girls are all snacking in their kitchen. The conversation is on Chris and Melissa and how awesome the boy is.

Captain Crunch is awesome too,
but apparently not very cooperative.

Melissa tells us she wishes she felt something more for Chris. She says she does feel about 50% for him, but that isn’t enough.

Fifty percent of what? Vagina tingles?

Somebody smack this bitch up!

Stephanie is ready to give up on Good John. I think she throws in the towel way too easily.

 

And I am impressed with who comes to console her.

It’s hot seat time and the girls have all gathered. Danielle is looking fetching once again with straight hair and a green off one shoulder dress.

She did mostly great this week, so here you go, sister.

Steve says Donna did the best this week.

Luscious just got back from a one year backpacking trip around the world with her husband (TVgasm fill-in specialist, The Professor). She spends her days writing, knitting and sewing. She's only good at one of those hobbies, not saying which.  Her secret dream is to write romance novels and have critics say her brilliance is wasted on such a pointless genre. Also, she'd like to create a pair of pajamas for her niece where the sleeves actually work.

    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!!
