This week on I Love Money 2, we find out that these people have trouble putting their mouths in action! Considering the nature of this show, the whole core of VH1 is shaken.
We open to people fighting, which is such a shocker! My mind, it hath been blown! Milf yells about how she knows everyone wants her in the box, so don't even try to deny it, y'all! Of course no one was denying it in the first place, so...awkwardcakes. She talks about how Safari saved her life in the game, so she's totally in an alliance with Safari now. I don't know why it bothers me so much that these people can't say Saaphyri as ghettoly as they should, but dag, learn yer grammars.
Milf decides Buddha needs to be kicked out of the house, which she rants about as she packs her bags and moves out of her bedroom. Buddha berates her as she leaves, but T-Weed nods thoughtfully and strokes his beard. Finally it's all making sense to him: Buddha is a cancer eating away at their team morale! If only someone had told him this sooner! Elsewhere in the house, The Entertainer's face explodes with rage but he's just not sure why.
Craig calls the houseguests to gather around his picture in the kitchen. The challenge is described as "sure to be a mouthful," and I immediately assumed it was something about spitting vs. swallowing, but then I remembered the preview from last week. It's ass-kissing! Which is awesome, yeah, but doesn't quite live up to that slogan. The contestants analyze the message, and Buckwild adorably interviews that she has a big mouth and it has a gap in it, so she could be very useful! Gap teeth are the bane of my existence, but that is a seriously cute observation.
The teams sit down to choose captains, and Saaphyri says The Entertainer should step up for the Gold Team. Everyone agrees with this, since it means Buddha will be eliminated if the Green Team loses. Simultaneously, everyone disagrees with Saaphyri's outfit choice.
What is wrong with her? How is this the same person who flipped the hell out about selling her clothes on Flavor of Love Girls: Charm School? Every time we see her, she looks more and more like she should be checked into a mental health facility. Nevertheless, the Gold Team takes her suggestion and The Entertainer is captain. On the Green Team, Buddha suggests Bonez as captain. Buddha hath writ it, so it shall be done! Everyone's cool with it and we all float on.
Buckwild, The Entertainer, Heat, 20 Pack and Milf meet up in a bedroom to talk strategy. Buckwild and Milf decide they'll throw the challenge so Buddha is sent home. Really though, when you're losing every challenge anyway, it's no longer considered "throwing it." It's called "sucking." Buckwild postulates that she should eat the rules for the challenge, like literally eat them. I don't know why this is relevant, but considering the competition at hand, maybe she can crap the rules into someone's mouth.
Everyone loads into the vans and heads off to the challenge. Craig instructs them to split into pairs, which will be done by random draw. Hoorah! Interesting pairs ensue! Unsurprisingly there are far too many rules for choosing a partner, like picking coins and choosing colors and all this mess. There will be one person per team who won't participate, and that's distinguished by choosing a gold coin.
On the Green Team, the pairs are Milf and Buddha (hilarious!), Ice and Buckwild, and Myammee and T-Weed. Poor Bonez will not get to play. This is probably for the best since he will inevitably be scandalized by the challenge, but Bonez is a sad panda nonetheless. On the Gold Team, the pairs are Angelique and Prancer, Heat and It, Saaphyri and Tailor Made (whose name is spelled incorrectly, natch), and The Entertainer and 20 Pack. Cali will sit out. It's kind of awesome that the most boring person from each team will skip the challenge. Methinks some crafty coin-selecting went on behind the scenes!

I vote for VH1 to organize an 'of Love' series with Becky Buckwild. Wonder what they'd call the show? I really hope she wins this. It's like watching Hee-Haw without the bad music.
Oh yeah, and she was looking awfully snuggly with the Entertainer earlier in this episode.
The whole idea of having teams on this show is meaningless, since they're all living together anyway.
I'm glad Buddha's out only because I was getting really tired of listening to people say 100 times each episode that they had to get Buddha out.

You just know one of these ppl is going to get their own 'of love' series my vote would be Buckwild, It, or Frenchie or all 3 could have their own show together. That would be like heaven for me if Buckwild, It, and Frenchie had their own show together.
My favorite line in this recap was "I hope he goes on a Safari to Meeahmee when the show wraps up!!!" Did anyone notice when Buddha was talking to Tweed in the vault, he was like Tweed got beat by a hairdresser in the boxing ring challenge so I believe 20-Pack is a hairdresser. I got to give it up to VH1 there great at casting ppl.
I like the last part about Cali she's going to finally say something next week so that means she's getting voted off. Am I the only one that thinks does that It may actually win this?

OMG... a Buckwild/Angelique/It show would be the best show VH1 ever did!! I would absolutely watch every minute of it!
Great recap and thank heavens that Buddha is finally gone!

Fabulous recap!! Love the Saaphyri/Safari conundrum. To bad her real name is Wanda and she's currenly locked up awaiting sentencing for various felonies. No joke, homegirl was on the run from the law and what does she do? She does reality t.v.

I guess that Milf thought she was Sue Ellen Mischke. "Sue Ellen. It's not a top."
I can't believe that you didn't mention how weird 20 Pack was acting. At one point, it looked like he was wearing makeup, but not like MAC or Clinique. I mean like Halloween/clown makeup. I even rewound the dvr a couple times. And he was also hanging on It during one of the ceremonies. 20 Pack is an odd duck.

reesewitherspoon, In the extra footage on VH1.com it has a clip that shows some of the castmates dressing up in halloween type costumes and imitating different castmembers throughout the 'of love" series. 20 Pack was wearing white and black face makeup and was the host.

@ Reese and Serjen:
I think in addition to the "of love" impersonations 20 Pack was wearing a Hallowe'en costume...it looked like it was supposed to be Joker makeup.

This episode was full of drama. I am a big fan of the entertainer, he gets so pumped up and turns red everytime he gets asked a question in the confessional. It is a little irritating that he thinks he is the only one allowed to have an alliance.
As much as I like the entertainer and "becky buckwild" (I hope they have a love connection- hilarious!), I am really pulling for tailor made. Something about that little guy really tickles my fancy. Does anyone know what happened with him and newyork? She is a raging biotch, but makes great tv!
lastly - who else thinks its totally tacky the way "mahyahmee" wears lingerie to elimination? Girl, you are not Megan!
