The guys go to rehearsal with Boomcat to polish up their act for White Plains. She notices that they're distracted because they are not giving her "gutteral" or "eye of the tiger." She makes them start over and then stops them and says they're too much in their heads. Will is trying to sing but sounds disconnected. She can tell no one is there and wants to know what's going on. She says they all need to go on to the next level and no one can be left behind. They all stare at her blankly. She says that she's seen too many groups that haven't reached their potential because they didn't try enough. So they need to make the choice to succeed.
She asks Will if he would do it all over again if he could? Go through the auditions, the Diddy torture, the fighting? Dramatic pause. "I would." My eyes well with tears. To be a boyband member....it's so....so....hard. To see them endure, to press on, to insist upon wearing dumb hats...it's....beautiful.
Later on...
Will seeks out Que to talk. They smile nervously. They both mutter that they are sorry. Will says that they should have practiced the other night but he was just tired. But he went overboard, and he's sorry. He doesn't want to make him mad. And they need each other. They need each other like a good, juicy coldsore.
They go to their show, pray, and perform. Will says that they need to get close again and not let each other fall. Que says that they're not blood but it's getting there. If they are all real, then the trust will build.
Next week, they STILL aren't on the same page, and they fight in front of Diddy. Uh-oh!
See you tonight for an all-new episode on MTV!
Much love, MandaMo
xoxo

HA! HA! HA! GREAT recap as always! That fight between Que and Will was the dumbest ever! I loved the screenshots of Que being a baby! He acted like he was 5 the entire episode! Why exactly would Will be jealous of Q-tip Que? Someone please help me understand! This recap was more enjoyable than the show. As usual.

I think Que has 2 problems. 1) He seems to be insecure about being the youngest in the group. 2) He is caught up in the DK issuse and he feels like he is Dawn and Will is Orange. Que was always telling Dawn that Orange was jealous of her and that was why she did not get along.
I am tire of Dawn saying that DK broke up because they were always fighting. I don't think that is true. I looked like the two clicks in DK were frienemies and just fronted that they got along. That goes on in the workplace all the time. DK seemed to work hard in the studio and on stage. They worked together when they wanted a different style for their last CD.
Dawn needs to face the fact that DK broke up because Diddy fired Orange and Whatsherface. DK may have been able get out 1 or 2 more CDs before the spit like so many other groups do. Maybe just long enough to get a least 1 real international tour. That could have led to money in the bank and or connections in the music industry. Many former group members go on to become producers, song writers or sign new artist. Like Mike from New Edition did after BBD broke up.

Yeah I don't know what's going on with Que maybe his personal life is causing him to lash out at ppl although Que if your going to lash out at someone don't do it to Will, whose muscles are bigger than your whole body. These ppl must blow all their money on hats cause these hats are getting out of control they even wear them during rehearsal. I'm guessing the rest of the season is going to be more Que drama, Dawn and Andrea just there, and Donnie doing these little gigs here and there as if he wasn't signed to a big record label!!!
