Violence rules!?
The moral of tonight’s absurdly commercial-riddled Battle of the People Who Hooked Up That One Time is this: Showdowns for first place should really only be done when there are two teams that legitimately had a shot at first. If you’re going to just promote the team that sucked least, and let them go head-to-head with the team that tore it up, you’re gonna run the risk of having an undeserving Power Couple, which can lead to one of said couple getting drunk and doing stupid crap.
The other moral is, no matter how ridiculous an excuse for a shirt a woman is wearing, there is no excuse for pulling it off her in a public place without her express permission. Seriously, how stupid do you have to be… er, never mind. I guess we have our answer.
So, there are tears on tonight’s show. Wailing ones, even. And that a’hole Mark doesn’t even take his shirt off to help dry them, geeeezz.
Tonight’s main challenge is awesome. I could have seriously watched it for the full hour. There are the ever-popular beams above water, this time several of them hung parallel to each other. The teams have to take this long cane-shaped metal rod, hook it into a ring above the beams, and sort of swing from beam to beam using the rod. It would be nice to know more about the technique for doing that, beyond don’t be a big ol’ girl and freak out so you fall.
The Dome challenge is pretty enjoyable as well, with some sand-wrestling and Matrix flips.
Also awesome about tonight’s episode is that it’s relatively CT and Diem-free! Who doesn’t love a reprieve from their stanky-booty asses, to borrow a term from Tyrie.
If you like it, spread it!:

Loved the episode. I am glad that we are getting more Challenge footage.
Cathode -”The other moral is, no matter how ridiculous an excuse for a shirt a woman is wearing, there is no excuse for pulling it off her in a public place without her express permission.” Amen! But seriously where do even get a shirt that awful and slutty??
Um, Sara acted like TJ just told her that her mom died. Sheesh.
I am glad Vinny is gone. He was such a fat piece. He probably ate Evan and that’s why he wasn’t on this challenge.
So I wonder why Jasmine’s stanky booty ass didn’t get kicked off for attacking Tyrie? I get that she’s smaller than him but she still punched him. They could’ve partnered Sarah with Tyrie, and let her join Vinny on the plane home.
I wonder that about Jasmine too. It seems that, over the years, MTV has gotten a little lax with the rules. During the first RW’s, I think if you pushed someone, you were gone. Now chicks can punch dudes, but you make a girl show a little titty…
Vinny swallowed Evan! Yeah buddy bringin back the Evan FAT jokes always a crowd pleaser.
Jasmine sux and yes she should have been booted for hitting another contestant.
A solid strategically placed fart could have blown Mandeees shirt off.
Was always Meh on Diem but saw her bitchy “my way on the highway” tude last nite and could see how a steady diet of that could wear anybody down. Run CT Run!
I think Evan and Vinny should contact the Guiness Book of Wrold Records and give the Motorcyle Twins a 2012 update picture.
@plockeness – Seriously! I don’t understand why Sara freaked out so hard over being sent home. I get you’re bummed, you can’t win the money, you didn’t do anything, but that was pretty intense.
I also agree Jasmine should get sent home, because a rule should be a rule.
And I found it disturbing that Vinny never saw any problem with what he did. He can pull the “it was a joke” thing all he wants, but the first thing he said when Mandi called him out was “you’re not even wearing a shirt,” or in other words, what you wear gives me the right to do with your body what I wish. Not. Okay. Alright, alright, I’ll stop bringing down the party and let the snarking recommence.
Speaking of Diem, I don’t really understand her whole “I can’t date CT now because I need to focus on my career” thing. What career has she been working on all this time? Was he in the way of that? And if so, how? I’m being serious, I don’t get it.
I watched the clip back over and over again. From what I saw, Jasmine threw a punch, but she didn’t hit Tyrie. I paused it at one point and saw that his arm blocked the fist. It’s like the incident with Jenn and Mandi on Fresh Meat II. You can’t hit anyone on the show, and from what I saw, no one got hit.
i personally felt that vinny looks like chaz bono but fatter. also, i miss fat evan, i love him. shameful but true.
I’m thinking they sent Vinny home because of the whole Tonya lawsuit against various guys from the show. Mark even said to Vinny something like “you used to be able to do stuff like that but nowadays I don’t know”.
I thought Sarah’s reaction was overkill too. If anything I would have been pissed, not sobbing! How come LeRoy got a new partner last time, but Sarah has to go home too this time? I’m thinking its because she never hooked up with anyone else…so who could they bring in?
Lastly, I too thought it was a little unfair letting Sarah/Vinny go against Bananas/Camilla when they so obviously weren’t even close to them the first time. Buttttttt, then I thought about it…and I think they are trying to diminish the power couple’s ability to rig the results when they set the order. Usually whoever goes last has the best chance to win because they get to watch everyone’s mistakes. This gives someone else a chance. Otherwise we’d always have the same power couple.
Also, I don’t think what Vinny did was right…but it’s not like half the guys there haven’t already slept with Mandi. They have all already seen her fake titties anyway. Plus I’m pretty sure 3/4 of them were showing in that shirt already. But yeah, he was a dick for doing it.
I never saw the RW with Diem and CT, so I didn’t have an opinion of Diem (watched last year’s Challenge so I’ve seen CT in action) but for the what 5 minutes that were show of Diem, I cannot stand her. What a tool! I have to say I jumped up and cheered after the Dome challenge. Although I figured since the one couple had to leave that they wouldn’t eliminate anyone else this episode. Boy was I glad that I was wrong!
Who cares about how many people mandi fucked…she chose to fuck them. Vinny chose to expose mandi’s tittayballs..Mandi did not.
Diem gets “strong female” confused with “I’m a princess and everyone must bow to me” confused a lot. I can’t stomach her.
More Evan fat jokes please!
I FLOVE LEROY!
I think it’s bunk that Sarah didn’t get a new partner, I mean even if it’s a chick. I’m sure she kissed a girl and she liked it somewhere in the Challenge archive footage. Jesus MTV, I mean, she had a Nancy Kerrigan style meltdown. This isn’t he Olympics sweeite, you’ll be back in 6 months. Act like ya been there before.
I think the reason Roy Lee got a new partner was b/c it literally happened w/in the first 24-48 hours.
OMG! No Cars – You are right about Vinny looking like Chaz Bono!! LOL!!!
Ok – so LeRoy did get a new partner in the RIVALS season…his BFF MIKE! So I don’t think it should matter if Sarah hooked up with anyone or not, just get another josh darn player for her – Kenny would have been Per-Fect!
Also – serioulsy – her reaction was like she needed to win this challenge to pay for her mothers cancer treatments or something – its a show! Get over it! I would be pissed but she needs a xanax or something…
So happy Leroy beat Wes – that was AWSOME! Earliest he left a challange yet! Leroy I beleive he has now officially made a name for himself
I know Kenny is eye candy but, I can’t help but have wished for one hot second that Mike Mike would’ve popped up and some hidden hook up b/w he and Sarah was revealed.
With that and Wes gone, we’d have a party! That’s all I have to say about that.
I think that Sarah completely overreactd, but I probably would’ve done the same thing. Sometimes people just get really upset over things. I think it was the high of winning combined witht he low of having to go home. Plus I’m a huge cry baby.
Jasmine’s eye making matching her outfits makes me queasy.
Did I hear the Awesome Greek God of all that dwells in toilets utter the word…KARMA…bwhahahahahahahahahahaha. I.LOVE.LEROY. While I think Sarah’s meltdown is over the top, I can understand it. She was high off their win and to be told with no warning that you had to go home… devastating. You would’ve thought someone died with that performance though
All I could think of during Sarah’s meltdown (and the genuine looks of pity on the other contestant’s faces) was that MTV must give them a pretty big stipend to appear on this show. They even made her do damage control by explaining that she was just upset because of all the fun things she wouldn’t get to do. I’m not buying it. She had plans for that money. Maybe they will cut make her a deal since it wasn’t her fault she got kicked off.
*cut her a nice check/make her a deal
JustPeachy…. They DEFINITELY don’t get a pretty big stipend. TRUST ME. If I was Sarah and I quit the job I just got to go on the show to win money… and then got kicked off when it wasn’t even my doing, I’d be pissed too. You’re only making bank if you actually win… The “compensation” for being on the show, is well, peanuts. Of course, I’d hope that I never completely lost my shit like that, the sting would most certainly hurt to go home from vacay early with no money and no job to return to. lol.
Evan so fat when he walk pass my window I lose 4 days of sunlight
Evan so fat he had to be baptized at Seaworld.
Cancer Barbie career is an ovarian cancer awareness charity. Bitch I’m aware of ovarian cancer. Thank you; your work here is done. Now go away.
