Later on, after she was all packed and ready for a trip to Zankou Chicken, Ripsi decided it would be entirely too difficult to carry her bags downstairs; so instead, she merely kicked them down the staircase, proving herself to be not just dumb and violent, but also incredibly lazy. As for Zara, she struggled with this departure, telling us, "It's hard when you lose a best friend." You've known her for FOUR DAYS, WOMAN! Get over it.
Well, one goes out and another comes in. Arriving in town was none other than Kerry's boyfriend, who hopped on a plane that day as soon as he heard that his girly had suffered mild scrapes and bruises. If she had stubbed her toe, he probably would have hired a horse-drawn chariot. Anyway, Kerry's boyfriend's name was David, or as I like to call him, BRETT FAVRE. (Mild resemblance, to say the least).
David popped up at the house, and immediately, Kerry gave him a walking tour of her horrific past, showing him the various spots where Ripsi had engaged in ruthless fisticuffs. It was only slightly less powerful than a walkthrough of Auschwitz. Of course, this little stroll down memory lane gave the producers a chance to milk that glorious fight one more time by showing us vivid flashbacks of the event. Something tells me we'll be seeing clips of this melee the entire season. Someone will be like "This chair has a scratch" and then suddenly we'll cut to Ripsi tossing the chair in slow-mo.
Anyway, Kerry then relayed to David how she felt no one would save her from the wrath of Ripsi, which was understandable. The girls did all just stand around and laugh. However, there was no need to start crying about it, which is exactly what Kerry did. Oh, poor, poor Kerry. What's a country girl gotta do to get some respect around here?
Later on, we learned that David was head over heels in love with Kerry (in case the instant trek across the country didn't tip us off about that). He wanted to get married, but she didn't want to commit just yet. A.K.A. she wants to dump him, but doesn't want to make the first move. Just guessing.
Meanwhile, in random news, some of the girls went to a market in downtown LA and bought a pet turtle, which they named Versace. Sadly, he was later killed by another turtle named Cunanan. (Yeah, that's right. I'm not afraid to make a pop culture reference from ten years ago). Anyhoo, once the turtle was purchased and destined for a life of hell in the Bad Girls Club (should it now be the Bad Girls and Turtle Club?), we traveled back to the house where Zara was dreaming about a new roommate who she could aggressively latch onto with sapphic glee. She just wanted the new girl to be a happy-go-lucky, bubbly person. Sorry, toots. I think the best you'll do will be Versace the Turtle.
We then watched as Kerry and David went out to dinner (yawn). Isn't this the Bad Girls Club, not the Kerry and David Club? Get back to the cat fights! Nevertheless, Kerry talked about her relationship with David and said something about how she was "going through this process." What process? You're just living in a house with other girls. You have literally nothing else to do but that. No tasks, no chores, no missions. Don't even act like it's a "process."
Meanwhile, back at the "process" house, Jodie and Zara talked about Ripsi ad nauseam. Jodie was understandably mad about how no one pulled Ripsi off of her when she was trying to sleep. She also didn't understand how someone could hate someone to that extent after only three days. Uh, I can understand it, mostly because I hated all these girls after three minutes. But I digress...
Zara then told Jodie that she regretted not intervening during the fight. In fact, she regretted it so much that she revealed she would regret it for the rest of her life! Dunh dunh DUNH!!! I can just imagine Zara, at the ripe old age of 88 sitting in a rocking chair and muttering, "I regret never going to Europe, and I regret never making amends with my father, and I regret never telling my deceased husband how much I loved him. But most of all, I regret not pulling Ripsi off Jodie during that one drunken fight when I was 22. Why, Ripsi. WHY???"

Anyone remember an episode of the show "Intervention" on A&E where they had a girl that looked and acted just like "Ripsi"? As a matter of fact, her name just came to me-it was Christy. She was one of those cases that was so bad that they had to dedicate an entire hour to just her instead of two people. Christy was an alcoholic and on meth as well. I'm going to have to launch my own private totally pointless investigation.

Side note-when you read a recap for a show you've never heard of, as in The Bad Girls Club, then do a search to see if there's a website for the show, do not-I repeat DO NOT-click on the first choice the search comes up with! I can tell it's been a long day at work, I didn't even read the description I just clicked...some things should not be on your work computer, if even only for a second. Here's to hoping I don't get fired!!

Ok, so call me a "Bad Girl" but where I come from grinding on a guy while dancing isn't necessarily cheating... Nor slutty... Maybe that's just in my world... Then again, I didn't actually see the show or the alleged nature of the grinding so who am I to judge? ;)
I love you so much B-Side - I'll read anything you recap on!

Maybe it's just me but I think the house would be a lot more interesting with Ripsi around. I didnt like Kerry that much anyway.
I do hope she gets some help tho cuz that chick is crazy lol.

Hey B-Side - Please tell me you're working on the Real World Denver (Colorado!) recap. I missed last night's episode and I really wanted to know if Tyrie bitch-slapped that ho Jenn? (Highly doubtful, I know...) Imagine what a show that would have been! Anyway, I'm tired of this Bad Girls crap already - why do men watch the Oxygen channel in the first place? Are you on your "men"-strual cycle right now? LOL Get crackin so I can get to laughin. Love you B-Side ! :)

Are you telling me no one else noticed that Ripsi hadn't changed clothes since being tossed in the pool? She even slept in those clothes, woke up the next morning wrapped a towel (why?) around her head and still didn't change. Was her hair still wet from the pool? Did Ripsi take a shower and put on the same clothes? Oh well, I guess that's the kinda family she grew up in. It made me feel dirty to see her in the same clothes for 3 episodes. And not in a good way.

Joslyn- I know exactly who you are talking about! NOW I know who Ripsi reminded me of! It wasn't till she went on her drunken rampage that something went off in my head that she looked familiar. She is the spitting image of that Christy girl!!

McCreamy:
I know, right? That has to be her! C'mon- Ripsi/ Cristy-sounds pretty similar. Although that would be kind of sad if it it is her, because her episode on Intervention was super disturbing. Hopefully, this show was taped pre-"Intervention". I did look on the A&E website, which even has a video snippet of Cristy/Ripsi? and I think that is her. Oh well, my worthless and timewasting investigation continues...

LOL Nilly!
Yeah work is slow for me today too.
Too bad Ripsi got the boot, we could have more material to use in our investigation haha. If it's not the same girl, they MUST come from the same family, or at least the same gene pool.

Once I read B-side's recap, I knew I had to watch this show and I finally caught the episodes over the weekend. The drunken Ripsi fighting was horrifying to watch and yet when the insane music started up during her Energizer Bunny segment, I couldn't help but laugh.
I think she had some sort of shawl wrapped around her head, not a towel, since it was black and had a fringe. She was probably hiding her 'went to bed with wet hair' look.
I think she should have stayed and Kerry should have gone home. Watching a drunk is much more entertaining than watching a sleeze.

Yeah I agree, I think Ripsi should have stayed. What she did was wrong, but what do you expect from a Bad Girl? LOL. What was Kerry expecting coming on to a show with such a name? Plus Kerry is boring and now Zara is annoying rather than funny without Rips.

I would have liked to have seen Ripsi try to mess with Ty (the gal who threw her to the floor after the attack on the sleeping woman).
So far, I like Aimee - but I reserve final judgement until after we see just how bad she gets.

I love Ripsi! i was cracking up watching her cause chaos. Everytime she was down, she got right back up again, like the walking dead or something. She reminded of those video games where you have to kill the zombies, and you think their dead but they keep coming at you. haha. And at the same time she was telling Ty that she loved Kerry. I wish she didn't have to leave, she was so entertaining. There should be a petition to bring her back into the house.

Ripsi is pretty good entertainment...for sure!
I can't STAND Kerry...that Reba McIntyre look-a-like-wanna be!
I hope her BF dumped her after he saw this ep!
