So she decides she's going to do this with Sho, which is really like doing it by herself anyway, so she feels okay about things. Look at all these freaking parts! exclaims Fluffy as she dumps out about twenty screws. How is she to know where a screw and a nail go? Sho is equally perplexed by this sudden arrival of small things and Dad shakes his head on cue.

Well where's the drill? asks Fluffy. He didn't leave a drill? Okay, instructions I take her side. The drill? Bitch. Folk Art Playhouses don't come with drills. Sho makes some negative comments towards Flufffy's ability to do this and we get the classic Itchy-and-Scratchy dirty look/frazzled look exchange.

I'll never drop the ball on comedy!

So they're off to the hardware store to procure the materials they need, namely a drill, and once again Fluffy is overwhelmed with how many things exist in the world of building. She should have stuck with the passive-agressive strategy. But she just gets the woman at the store helping her to recommend one and it appears that all is coming together in Fluffy's world until the next bombshell is dropped: the clothes have not been returned.

One of the stores that so graciously lends her clothes calls her to inform her the dresses were never returned two days ago and now she will have to put it on her card and take care of it. Something a celebrity should never ever have to do. Naughty assistants! I know TJ Maxx still does layaway if that helps.

So she gets back in the car and tells Sho what happened and Sho is just appalled that Sabraina did not take care of this. How could Sabraina be so incompetent? He covers his tracks in a confusing way, but Fluffy is ensnared in the tangled web he is weaving. Fluff ends his spiel with a "I'd really like her to work out" which he intends to have like he wants the situation to work out, but we all know what he's really saying.

Just a few crunches here and there wouldn't kill a bitch.

Fluffy is busy being the boss bitch though and is high on authority. You're my personal assistant and things like this can't affect your job. And if it is...we'll have to deal with it! Somebody wants to be Amanda Woodward. When she gets back to the house she is relieved she has the girls' playhouse to work on. It's really taking all the stress off the Sho-Sabraina sitch. She feels like this is the balance Dr. Katz was talking about. Or maybe she's taking Yaz.

Symptoms occur regularly before a woman's menstrual cycle? No effing way, ass hats.

So it's all finished and sister Michelle comes over and loves the playhouse (it actually does look like a pain in the ass to put together and I'm a bit impressed. I struggled through one ikea cabinet and felt like I was a damn genius.) But then sister Michelle proceeds to chew her out that building a playhouse was not what the doctor ordered. Big dick was. Fluffy feels a little deflated when she hears this, but at least she has the girls' excitement to look forward to...which means next scene we see the girls informing their mother they don't like their playhouse. I really enjoy how this show sticks to the standard joke set-up. It's comforting.

But I even bought a non-sexual drill for this.

Well now that that was a complete failure in "engaging with the world", it's time to talk to Dad about Assistant Showdown 2008. She explains what happened with the clothes. Sho is saying one thing and Sabraina is saying another. And of course she's not upset about the clothes, because clothes aren't really important in the big picture, but it's the lying. Dad prudently says they don't know who's lying, but Fluffy feels Sho is trying to throw Sabraina under the bus. He says he can't work with her and wants Fluffy all to himself. I understand that feeling.

So now we're going to hash it out. A mistake is one thing, but lying is another. Fluffy doesn't care if people screw up, because god knows she's a hot mess, but she needs to know they're not out whoring it up. Or lying or whatever. Basically someone to step up and take responsibility for the blunder. Its not about the clothing, it's about integrity.

And mer-hair.

Initially Sabraina says it was her fault and that it's because she didn't know she was the one that was supposed to take them back. And Sho runs with it adding that he told her Friday.

You caught me! I don't work out.

Being the reality show junkie that I am, I can tell you than Dr. Stan was previously on Starting Over, a weekday daytime reality show about women trying to get their lives in order, usually with a fair degree of success. On the show, I couldn't stand Dr. Stan-- he was superfluous. There were two "life coaches" who helped the women a heck of a lot more than he did. I like him even less now-- he's trying to extend his 15 minutes.

i remember dr. stan! i watched the first season religiously. in fact my roommate and i taped it on a ghetto vcr to watch at night on days when we had to report to work. i was devastated when it got cancelled. i thought it would live forever. i still think about amy, the senator's daughter and lynn and haley, the mother-daughter trainwreck.

i love reality tv.

clair:

I tried watching this show last night - made it through 2 minutes. That woman is annoying. I'm enjoying the recaps, however, without the pain and agony of watching the show.

lexxi1129:

Great recap! I dont watch the show but the recaps always have me cracking up.

I also remember Dr. Stan - not only from Starting Over, but he was the one that called the authorities on Michael Jackson after interviewing the kid that MJ supposably molested. Psychologist? Sounds more like media whore to me.

dandylion:

I was roommates in '91 with Sho in Modesto, Ca.
He left me with a large long distance bill and claimed he "owed me nothing"
Nice to see he's still handling things well.
What an ass!!

sweetsimplicity:

Ladyx YOU ARE MY HERO! :)

cmblair76:

Do people really WANT to watch this garbage!?! I came across this show the other day and was sickened by DR amazing ability to talk about her 'problems' that any normal person would love to have.... I'm glad CS is no longer with her, if she were my g/friend I would be in solitary for killing her self-absorbed butt!
