I'm still trying to recover from my drinking bender this weekend, so if there's anything that doesn't make sense in this recap of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, you can just blame it on that. Or me still being drunk from St. Patrick's Day. Or me being drunk now.
This week we learn that Rob is still alive, there's a difference between "organic" and "fresh from a chicken", and that Khloe is like me in that she isn't sure which of her youngest sisters is which.
Which one are you?
We start off with everyone eating and talking about how awesome their dinner is (nice work maid!) and Rob always misses Thursday night dinner. He always comes home with laundry, so he doesn't have any? Then we see his girlfriend (former Cheetah girl) explaining to him how to do laundry. Dude, just make her do it. That's love.
So I guess the next day the older girls and Rob all get lunch, and they ask where he's been. Apparently they didn't know that he had a real girlfriend. He's hesitant to bring her around, and who wouldn't be with those accepting, realistic siblings. Also, in an episode I saw last season, they spied on him on his last date. The girls can't believe that Rob is in love, but luckily he has proof. You know what a great idea is? Getting someone's name tattooed on you. And luckily Rob has great ideas all the time.
Kourtney seems bewildered by this. Her full name is tattooed on his side/chest. Hopefully this whole thing works out because it's going to be hard to find another girl with that exact name. Adrienne Bailon isn't exactly a common name. But if he does find another girl with that name, she'll totally believe it was fate. And really, who's to say it isn't? Would you? If so, you've got some nerve. The girls ask if Adrienne got a tattoo too, and he said yeah. Then it's off to the bathroom. Seriously, everyone on this show goes to the bathroom during meals. It's like the PA's are like "Hmm, we need an original way to get people off-screen. I've got it! The bathroom! It's, like, totally fresh!"
Bulimia is a useful plot device on this show.
Because I always go to the bathroom leaving my stuff on the table, I know how it goes. Sometimes I just leave giant wads of hundreds out on the table. There's no point to that story, I just wanted to say it. Anyways, Rob leaves his phone on the table. Well, Kourtney may be too good to snoop in her boyfriend's phone unless someone does the work, but she's not too good to snoop in her brother's phone. So she looks for Adrienne's number. Kim tries to play sane sister, I think, or maybe caring sister or something, and she's thinks Kourtney is krazy. I'm pretty sure none of these chicks are remotely sane.
Kris tells us that everyone has been eating horribly lately, and she wants to get them back on track. And the thing that brings this up is Kim having a piece of cake. Need to keep that ass in shape. Apparently that's all we need to get some sort of backstory to this plotline, but there are more pressing things, so screw Kris, we check back in with Kourtney and Khloe.
She's calling Adrienne. Apparently they're calling her on the way home from dinner, so they're not fucking around here. They ask her to meet them for coffee later that night, and Adrienne agrees, but she does so probably because she's been put on the spot. She also laughs, like "what the fuck is up with these krazy bitches." Kourtney says that the sisters are always meddling in everyone's private life, case in point last week with her and Scott. Since that's now better, why not try to ruin Rob's relationship that appears to be much healthier? She makes a great point.
Time to kill some love. Can you hear me now?

Fake, fake, fake. This show is so planned and staged it's hard to watch sometimes. That's not to say that there aren't moments of real life thrown in the mix too. I truly believe that Rob is that co-dependent. Which is kinda cute!
Anyhow, there's a picture floating around that shows Rob getting his tattoo. Adrienne's leaning above him, beaming, and Kim is sitting next to him. So she obviously knew about the relationship before the restaurant scene. Nice try E!
But good recap, Treading! I may not continue to watch the show, but I will read your posts, which are funnier anyway.

Um this recap was kind of a jumbled mess, but I will forgive you because this show is ridiculously staged.
First, I'm pretty sure Klhoe is the youngest girl. Secondly, Cheetah Girls are very popular with the Disney crowd. Which is why they are making a third movie.
Thirdly, I'm really confused about this family's living situation. I refuse to believe that they all live in that house. However when Kim was on Cribs she showed that bedroom with the pole as her bedroom, but I thought that was Kris and Bruce's room. And one episode last season they looked like they were at someone's apartment during a scene. I don't know, does anyone know.
