Diddy opens the show by saying, "It's me ladies!" Obviously Diddy thinks that the only people who watch his show are girls. Either that or every other guy is a woman when compared to his amazing manliness. He tells us that he's really excited because his bands are wrapping things up in the studio, so they deserve to enjoy the fruits of their labor. Fruits of labor = day on a yacht.

Den Mommy Michael tells the girls about the yacht, and they demonstrate the common emotion often related to good news: Excitement. The guys, on the other hand, react the way the always do to most things -- by responding with boredom and confusion. Den Mommy tries to rile them all up by saying that it will be fun. But the boys really don't seem to want to get out of bed. Big Mike tells us that he can't swim, so if he falls over board, he'll die. Someone get this man some floaties! Finally Denny entices them by saying there are huge buffets on the boat, and the boys finally get up. The fastest way to Day26's motion control center in the brain is through the stomach.

The girls get on the boat first, accompanied with one of their songs in the background. They all sprawl around in their suits, with their glasses on, perfectly posed.

A note on Danity Kane fashion: The do-rag trend has never been a friend of mine. If I get within two blocks of a do-rag, I break out in hives. It's just a little too Brett Michaels for me. But here, it makes sense. It protects the scalp from those awful sunburns to the area where your hair is parted. Because there is nothing worse than a sunburn on your part. You can't brush or comb your hair for a week without ruing the day you were born. It's bad.

Next a little boat comes to pick up the boys to take them to the yacht. And the boys are actually too afraid to jump into the boat because some of them can't swim. I seriously doubt that with all the camera crew, production assistants, etc. that anyone will let these boys drown. But, then again, I guess that would make for some pretty interesting television.

The best part is that Big Mike's hat falls into the water. This all could have been prevented if he'd actually pulled his hat onto his head rather than keeping it weirdly perched the way he always does. Hopefully he'll learn his lesson. But I doubt it. Mike is so bothered by the loss of his hat, that he wants to go back home. I wonder what poor assistant had to hop in to retrieve this prized possession. I hope there aren't any leeches in there.

The girls make fun of the boys for being pansies. When the boys finally make it onto the yacht, everyone sprawls around and soaks up the sun. The boys comment that they can't wait until they have enough money to have their own boats. Such humanitarian goals! I love it!

Diddy ends up joining the cruise because he wants to get to know them all a little better. (Huh?) Why has he been so nice lately? I'm fearing a Diddy-sized backlash in the future... The first thing that Diddy asks is if anyone does an impression of him. Brillo does an interesting one that isn't good at all. Then another yacht passes and Diddy waves. I wonder what I'd do if I was just boating along and saw Diddy on the next boat over. I think it'd be similar to that crazy scene at the end of "Overboard" when Goldie Hawn swims wildly toward Kurt Russell. I just hope that no one tries to shoot me with a bow and arrow. (Don't pretend like you don't know what I'm talking about.)
