He makes a pretty good point, saying that he's been there for a week so he's not ready to commit to her for his entire life. Even though he's an utter moron, he's using common sense for once. New York's boobs spew saline from all her rage, and she tells It that if he's afraid of the spirits in the room, just wait until she's on his ass. That would frighten anyone, really.
She calls Midget Mac up next, and I bet he'll make her feel better. He should perform a song and dance. In confessional, he says he's had a lot to get off his chest and knows this is the time to do it. He gives her pictures of his two daughters, which is sweet but also just fabulously disturbing. I can't get over the idea of a midget having a kid, and I know that makes me mean and all, but oh my God - he uses his midget penis. The reason he's giving the pictures is because their mother, his fiancée, passed away in March. That is seriously devastating, but it's also the kind of thing New York will use against him when she eliminates him. You know, she won't be eliminating him because he's small or anything. It's just because he's not quite over his former fiancée. Sure enough, she says that very thing right away. I recap the show as I watch it for the first time, so y'all, I've got the ESP in me.
After the Macster, Tailor Made gets to approach his gal. His offering is also a picture of his daughter, whom he credits for all his accomplishments. He goes on and on, and New York is all like, "That shit sounds like a fucking Hallmark card." Unfortunately, that's not a good thing. He reads his oath, which includes swearing he's not a snitch, and that makes dear old Lori shake her head. It's all because of the pendulum, natch - it has nothing to do with all the other contestants laughing and rolling their eyes. Oh Lori, ye art so wise! She tells him to think twice about signing the oath, and The Entertainer wonders if Tailor Made will be cursed. Yeah, I'm sure this crazy old woman has the power to do that. Then The Entertainer soils his pants when Tailor Made signs in blood. Lori warns the guys that the spirits in the house are very unhappy with the gentlemen who lied. She says the spirits want to cough up some of the oaths and get rid of them, but instead she's just going to walk out with New York. Clears all that up!
We cut away to the guys getting ready, and New York explains that the whole day was pretty deep. When things get heavy for her, she alleviates that by eating a lot, essentially making herself heavier to compensate. Yay! That logic is actually pretty adorable. Everyone sits down at a steakhouse, and she tells Punk that he touched her the most with his offering, so he wins the date. Tailor Made gets majorly pouty since the attention isn't on him, so that's his cue to stand up and make a toast in an attempt to repair his image. If nothing else, maybe it'll earn him the right to sleep on the couch inside the house. He toasts to New York gracing them with her presence, to new beginnings, and to having love for Tiffany. Mr. Wise calls it bullshit, which it is, but New York eats that shit right up and calls it lovely. Hoorah! Let us all clink our glasses.
New York announces she received something in the mail today, which is 100% true. Everyone had their mail redirected to this house, dontcha know. She asks Punk to do the honors of reading the letter, and it starts out with the author saying he feels cheated at the prospect of them not being together. Some basic context clues reveal the author to be Buddha, and he calls Tailor Made the physical manifestation and representation of everything he hates in this world. Fucking love it! It doesn't get any better than someone officially being like, "I despise you." In confessional, Tailor Made says he realizes the note is from someone who definitely hates him. The beginning of the letter talked about their big showdown in the house, so Tailor Made is sort of blissfully moronic if he can't put the pieces together. This man's a father, ladies and gents. He and his kid can share flash cards.
Future Step-Mother of the Year.

Is it wrong that I'm happy about Buddha being back? He's better looking than any of them. I knew it would happen. I had him pegged to win in the first place.
Again, your recaps are better than the actual show. I don't even watch anymore.

"New York is a true cunt if she keeps this stuff."
Best line ever. Losers over at the KID NATION recap got all bent out of shape because I called Taylor a mini-c*nt. Guess what? She is.

Your recaps are so much better than the actual show!
All of my housemates are now convinced I'm insane as I just read all your recaps of this show and spent the last 2 hours laughing really loudly.
"It doesn't alarm him that the full-sized men are frightened. His Midgetzu will get him through!"
Considering who these full-sized men are...

And Reese is right- Taylor is a fucking snot. I know it's wrong to want to punch a kid, but I mean...I just KNOW who she is going to be later in life. So I can wait to punch. If I must.

Is it wrong that I'm routing for Tailor Made? Probably. I don't care.
I feel dirty.

Oh my, It is gone. I may just have to stop watching the show.
Ummmm, nah.
Love the recap, BaileyQuarters!

i am sad! no one is going to love It the way he truly loves...himself...
my favorite It moment:
It presents the roses to New York as Tailor-Made looks on in despair. poor Tailor-Made - what a douche.

Great recap! I immediately flashbacked to the same show with the enormous crazy lady screaming about gargoyles, demons and what-not. "All of you, get out of my house! If you love Jesus, you can stay." That's hilarious, even smack dab in the middle of the Bible Belt.
I won't lie though, as funny as it was, I did get a little spooked watching it after my boyfriend had gone to bed. I fell asleep singing, "God is bigger than the boogie man" from Veggie Tales.
Goodbye, It. Your nonsensical rants will live forever in reality t.v., as well as my heart. I would love a lemon.

Being so late replying to these, I don't know if any of you will see it, but these comments are the best things ever and I want to marry you all.

Bailey, I have failed you. It's taken me awhile to read this recap, so you've probably moved on to bigger and better and newer recaps, but I'll press on anyway.
(I accidentally erased my comment, so here it goes again.)
Aw, thanks for the shout-out. :)
I thought of you as soon as I heard New York say "tooken". ("I KNOW Bailey heard that!")
It's terrifying me more than a little bit that we're having the same reactions to the goings-on in "New York's mansion":
Buddha's hilarious, yet long-winded "I hate you" letter to Tailor-Made (can we all co-sign on that letter?).
My favoritest (what? that's totally a word!) quotes from the recap:
"New York's boobs spew saline from all her rage..."
"Hell yes, midgets are hilarious." (Midget Mac should be the King of All Midgets!)
"Today's his date, so it's time to pump some iron and prepare, rah!" (Thank you! So I'm not the only one who thinks Punk looks like an over-inflated Michellin Man.)
To be continued...
