I Love Money: Take a Chance on Me

081008a.png

We're back for another week of I Love Money! I love this show for so very many reasons, but one of the main reasons is that it feels never-ending in a totally good way. These are the reality TV all-stars, they don't have to give us any of their time! But we've got them for about seven more weeks and I could not be more stoked. More I Love Money! More tatas for one and for all!

We open to Rodeo cackling for no real reason, although really, does she need one? I think not. Almost the whole cast is randomly hyucking it up together, and Whiteboy randomly tells Pumkin she doesn't have to worry about anything because he'll take care of her. I feel like this is not the smartest way to make an alliance, but it's probably not an issue since I Love Money alliances last for about 14 minutes altogether.

Back in his bedroom, The Entertainer mourns Destiney. He thinks everyone was jealous of her beauty, seemingly not realizing how much money these broads have spent to be prettier than Destiney. They are not fazed! 12 Pack is really interested in the conversation.

Sleep in heavenly peace.


The Entertainer says the smell of the sheets makes him miss his girl. There's nothing like the scent of sweat and splooge to get you all emotional! 12 Pack explains the reasoning behind Toastee's decision as Paymaster, but The Entertainer decides she was just brainwashed, which is a perfectly reasonable conclusion. I mean, why not, you know? They conclude Whiteboy needs to be sent home next, after some kind of talk about how they don't want to make strategic moves. I agree! More likely than not, the biggest mongoloid in the house will win this whole game.

The next day, Megan walks through the house hotly, boobs a-bouncing. She talks in confessional about how the women in the house are afraid to go against the Stallionaires, since they think whoever breaks their trust will be the next one sent home. For this reason, she ropes Brandi into proposing an alliance to Toastee. It would be Megan, Brandi, Toastee and Pumkin, henceforth known as The Brokedowns. Toastee is intrigued, even when Megan says, "So then we'll make sure that we four always are the strongest... one thing for us four." I don't know what that means, but I'm like 99% sure it doesn't mean what she thinks it does.

Toastee leaves to present the idea to Pumkin, and the Gourd is impressed! She thinks the alliance sounds kinky, although aside from Megan, these women are probably about as unattractive as you could get. Toastee suggests the other half of The Brokedowns is performing mind tricks, which sounds sort of ambitious. They agree to let Megan and Brandi cling onto them anyway, since it's always good to have someone to use.

The old T-Mobile phone howls at the houseguests, so everyone gathers 'round to listen. You'd think after six weeks they'd realize they're really just receiving a voicemail, not a live person, but Toastee still speaks into the phone as though it will truly answer back. Similarly, Rodeo tries to spin the numbers around to make a call. In the message, CJ instructs the contestants to choose a new Paymaster, and also to wear their uniform and a swimsuit to the competition. The Gourd is prepared.

Locked and loaded!


Brandi decides to be captain since the last time a girl was captain, the team won. Since that was over a month ago, no one can remember so they opt not to argue with her. She theorizes that they have to win the challenge, so she'll just have to be the captain! The only catch is, this challenge sounds physical and Brandi is physically challenged. Awkward. Real says, "If you're willing to die in that water, I'm willing to die myself to win." Brandi giggles, then cries.

On the Gold Team, Pumkin volunteers to be the Paymaster. They put it to a vote and then it's final! Hoopz feels good about this decision. She and Pumkin have been friends since before this show, so she's comfortable with the Gourd in the position and also glad to get some more screen time. That puts her at four whole minutes now! 12 Pack goes around the room and gives everyone an unenthusiastic high five, which makes me feel really confident in their choice. Yayyy.

I have to admit Bailey I was super psyched to see you taking over for ChickBomb (who's wonderful in her own right). I was kind of disappointed in the Celebracadabra blog and it's nice to see you back in your element- taunting pathetic reality whores.

My enjoyment of ILM is slowly syphoning as strong, smart (well as smart as these people get) players get booted and the possibility of the 4 nastiest schemers (Megan, Brandi, Toastee, and Pumkin) winning that quarter million becomes more of a reality each week. And I don't understand this strategy on the power outings of telling the paymaster, "If it came down to you and me, you would beat me easily. I'm one of the weakest players." Brilliant, deprecate yourself, and talk about how terrible you are.

I'm sorry I can't share your enthusiasm for Megan though. What a waste of space and a perfectly good life. I wonder if she has any true friends. And about next week showing Hoopz and Entertainer facing off, we haven't seen it yet, but Hoopz automatically wins. Anybody does against Entertainer.

ReeseWitherspoon:

"Saggy boob sock" is one of my favorite lines ever on reality tv!!! My friends and I have been saying it since the first show aired.

I hate Nidget Mac, so hearing his stupid voice was wearing me thin.

I am SO glad Chance is gone. I wanted to cheer. How stupid is he? He knows that Pumkin will get "aten". Seriously? And why is Real suddenly insane?

pbandj:

Hilarious! I loved "Chance yells at her to just put all her eggs on the table, which is exactly how the saying goes. Later, she puts all her cards in one basket." Poor Chance, I liked him! He was so retarded. He acted as though he'd have no problem killing you but it has to be on dry land so he has a fair shot at catching you. Poor dog paddler. Doesn't it take a real man to show the world you dog paddle? I thought it was so funny that Pumpkin volunteered since she is on a swim team as though she's super athletic (she was a cheerleader too, right) and then wouldn't even go under the water. I feel better knowing she hadn't learned to do so yet! : )

So people have been saying Megan is dumb in every recap... I didn't watch her season too closely, but from I Love Money... she seems pretty sharp to me. Sneaky and a bitch.. I like!

i was going to skip reading the re-caps for i love money, but then i saw it was being written by bailey quarters and i couldn't resist checking in on the re-cap. i was not disappointed in what i read and much laughter ensued. i may not watch or love i love money, but i do love bailey quarters' recaps.
