Truckstop. Donna and Kelly roll up to the bar while a Silver look-a-like screeches on stage with the band. Donna orders 2 Dirty Girl Scouts and wonders if the California rolls on the menu are a sign to split her time between Japan and Cali. It's definitely a sign that I need to go pick up something to eat. She tells Kelly she'll stop obsessing over Japan and focus on Kelly's new fling. Kelly wonders what she wants her to do, go up to some guy and lift up his shirt. Sure, but there doesn't seem to be many guys there. Kelly brings Donna's attention to the girl on girl action going on at the end of the bar. They figure the girls they asked sent them to a Lebanese bar because they had their arms around each other. That, or maybe they were just lesbians. Who cares! They dance their homophobia away.
Peach Pit. Naomi gets dissed by Liam who's picking up some food. She joins Annie at a table and wonders why he acts like they haven't been screwing like rabbits for the past week and a half. Like the one time in the bathroom of a Chinese restaurant. Annie thinks that's enough. Of the sex talk. Naomi thinks she means of getting treated badly by Liam. One minute he's hot, then cold, then really hot. She's so over it. Annie asks how her dad is. Naomi doesn't bite and just says he's fine. Right on cue, Portia and her bitch posse walk by. She tells Naomi, and the room, that her dad is a disgusting pervert and hopes her mother takes him for all he's worth. Annie gets up and defends her friend's family honor. Naomi is shocked that she knew about it already. She can't believe that people are talking about it and Annie didn't say anything.
Truckstop. Hair tossing and uninhibited dancing abound. Kelly and Donna decide its time to leave. Disappointing to their lovely dance partners. Donna promises to be back and tease their vaginas some more.
Outside, they drunkenly walk to, I'm hoping, a busier street to catch a cab and not to their cars. Donna thinks Alyssa was totally into Kelly. She stops in front of storefront with a "for lease" sign in the window. It's THE sign.
Room 112. Naomi packs up her stuff. Annie knocks on the door, she's there to apologize. Naomi listens to her from inside. She says she should have told Naomi, but chickened out. She really wanted to be a "girl's girl", have real friends, blah, blah, blah. Naomi opens the door and tells her to stop. She's freaking out about having to leave the hotel and Annie's yammering is giving her a headache. Try recapping it. Annie invites her to stay at her house. Naomi doesn't know about living with Annie and her Pollyanna family, but it would be better than living with her dad and his strict cereal rules. Annie would really like it. Why? Because she pities Naomi? She doesn't want that kind of friendship. If they are going to be friends, they have to be blunt and honest with each other, and not walk on eggs around each other. It's egg shells, not eggs. Naomi thanks her and tells her she plays with her hair way too much. Honesty. In that case, Annie is sorry she threw the foosball game. There will be a rematch and Naomi will destroy her. "Show no pity" is Annie's motto.
How forced is their friendship?
Lawyer-type Place. Is that? It is! It's Evie Ethel Garland! Tonight, Evie will be playing the Jennifer Garner part in Juno. She describes her house and neighborhood to Pregs and Navid. Evie's husband plans to be very hands on (ewww) and doesn't want to miss a minute of the kid's life. He also plans to have the kid hate him. Pregs asks about the dog they've had for seven years. What if the baby is allergic? Of course they would prioritize the child. So they would just give away the pet they've had for seven years? Evie's parents, Donna and Troy, only live 45 light years away. She's sure they'd take it. Pregs thinks she has an answer for everything. Even more pensive Navid.

Thanks Mones...these days I'd rather not watch the show and wait for your recaps.
A couple of things I noticed...less Dr. Pepper shilling which is good but more 80's era fad shilling...bad. That one chick on the street looked like Jennifer Beals circa Flashdance, bartender at lesbian club wearing off the shoulder shirt. Naomi's outfit for half the show was SO Flashdance. Stop pushing these fads down my throat show...these kids don't even remember the 80's!
But I did appreciate the Clueless and Pretty Woman references!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who has noticed how selfish Donna is being. She is just as guilty of choosing her wants over her husband. I've always thought both Kelly and Donna were selfish, narcissistic heifers and frankly I wanna watch the show less now that they're both chewing up my screen again. At least on the original I had decent guys to look at after these two ran all the likeable women away. This show needs a good Brenda, Valerie, or Gina to offset these two wannabe good girls.

Why didn't Mattews buy Dr. Pepper? Instead of hooking up, he and Kelly could of made Dr. Pepper cake and have Dr. Pepper to drink!
:P
Really, Silver going to a Catholic school? Wait til she starts getting a yearning for making more Vlogs.
The sisters will not be pleased.
Great recap and yes, it was better than the show!

I don't think St. Claire's will last any longer than this plan of Navid's. A couple weeks, and Silver's back at West Bev and the baby goes to (infertile) Brenda.

hoxharding: i can't wait for a sister mary margaret beat down!!!
DaffyMaiden: predicatability, one of this shows MANY flaws.
