The 12 Men of Xmas Recap

Everyone has a good laugh and then EJ pulls out a giant Tupperware of strawberries. When the gang tries to convince her she should give repelling a go, she says “No thanks, only my drinks are on the rocks.” Who writes these puns???

Bobble wobble!

Then Mr. Mountain Man challenges her and she can’t resist a challenge from Mr. Mountain Man so she accepts! EJ won’t let Mr. Mountain Man think he is better than her because she has the mightiest Bobble-head of all! And she will prove it as she straps on her giant red helmet and wobbles and bobbles all the way down the side of the mountain.

She’s doing great, bobbling along and loving the view, until all of a sudden she stops and freezes like a bobble-head deer in headlights. This is the perfect opportunity for Mr. Mountain Man to repel down and rescue her so that they can fall in love by the time this cheeseball Christmas special is over.

Mr. Mountain Man manages to get her to safety and they stare longingly into one another’s eyes until the rest of the group catches up to them, making sure she’s all right. She would have been all right if you cheeseheads gave her a minute to make out with Mr. Mountain Man and calm her raging lady bits.

Post “Mountain-mishap”, Mr. Mountain Man comes by her place of business to pay EJ a visit. Something is up; he is super nervous and is bumbling his words. Could he be twitterpated by this little Bobble-head being he sees before him?

Mr. Mountain Man says that he wants to be the sponsor of her man meat calendar, but that’s just a thinly veiled admission of love. He finally admits he has feelings for her; he loves the way her head bobbles and shines and how she’s bossy and small and classy. She is livid, even though she would love to be held in his Mountain Man arms as they look off into the distance like every Danielle Steel cover, and denies his love and his sponsorship.

Now she doesn’t have a sponsor! Oh EJ and your foolish pride! But wait! She has a plan! It’s time to call in a favor with her new shopping friend who loves cynics, Cynic Lover New York Lady.

Cynic Lover New York Lady looooooves the idea of “real” men posing for a calendar and wants nothing more than to be a part of the process. See, ladies can do things without men being their sponsors!

The minute she feels like she’s accomplished something, something else goes wrong! One of the men has decided he no longer wants to pose. She suggests libations to loosen the spirit, and the trousers (wink wink nudge nudge), but he just won’t do it! What is she going to do with only 11 men? Who is possibly going to be the 12^th man? It’s anybody’s guess, but I’m pretty sure there are only 13 men in this sleepy little mountain town and EJ would sooner die than ask Mr. Mountain Man to take his place. How will she solve this conundrum?
