Paradise Hotel: Dance For Me Like a Gigolo

My friend, Carrie, left me a voicemail today asking for her forty minutes of life back. She watched Paradise Hotel because I told her I was recapping it and she was horrified. She said there was nothing redeeming about it. In her opinion, it was like air, not even like Cheesy Puffs, which is at least artificially flavored air. Just air. Well, this baffled me. I find idiocy, sluttiness and drunken scheming to be full of redeeming value and even somewhat rewarding. So luckily, I'm the one recapping, because we got the hot ticket for all three of those redeeming qualities right here. It's a beautiful day in Paradise. Could someone slather me in baby oil?

So we pick up where we left off with Manstealing Chelsea and Whiskers Orbi trotting off for some bedroom antics. Chelsea continues to play the innocent card saying that she and James didn't hook up other than their little peck. She's wasting her time. Our man doesn't care if she had a threesome with James and Mike and then went a spanked Tania's juicy booty all night, as long as she's hooking up with him. He pushes her right down on the bed and this guy means business! Seriously, this is the first sign of life I've seen out of this guy. And here I thought only the presence of Cisco Adler would make him open his eyes all the way.

Today we also make the shocking discovery there is no money for editing subtitles in the Fox Reality Channel budget.

Paradise is a small community and their absence puts Lauren and Charté hot on their trail. Lauren finds an open door (window??) to eavesdrop. Orbi tells Chelsea that the reason he and Lauren are roommates is because they are both from Jersey. And this, my fine readers, will be the first of many references to an ineffable "Jersey Connection". A bond so tight it makes two strangers like "brethren". And Lauren flips over this. I mean, this bitch is stoked. I think this is the first person in the history of PH to not get all salty and up in arms over an unsanctioned roommate hook-up. She doesn't care what ass he's tappin' as long as he is reppin' the NJ. I do not understand this whatsoever, but I am also not from Jersey.

More thrilling than a freshly manicured lawn.

So our two little spies go back and report to the group what's transpiring and James is visibly upset. Though it's really just adorable when he puts on the tough face and says "Yeah, whatever" like he don't give a what-what.

Behind closed half-doors, however, it's not smooth sailing for Orbi or Chelsea. Maybe Chelsea's buzz is wearing off, but she is suddenly second guessing this hook-up, in a really tiresome way. But big ups to Orbi for being relentless. I never knew he had this much energy. The whole thing becomes uncomfortable the more he pressures her, but it's hard to get a sense of how much she's stringing him along. She seems completely uncomfortable but yet WON'T LEAVE. What is she doing there if she don't want some surfer-douche ass? And by the way, I am getting downright mortified learning about the intricacies of Ryan Orbi's member. Seriously, is this shit legal? We all know that this is going on, but when they freaking CLOSE-CAPTION it, they are taking it to another level. My eyes are burning.


The Ridge is the hottest new STD, didn't you know?

Not if we're talking about rock. I prefer my rock soft.

Finally, after she's had enough forced ridge-feeling, Chelsea retreats to her room, taking Orbi's manhood with her.

Please give it back. I promise I won't make you feel the ridge anymore.

Back in her own bed, "Yeah Whatever" James is now letting her have it, which we all saw coming. Your charade didn't fool us. You would think that she cheated on her boyfriend of two years. At least two days. These guys have been "roommates" for one night! Slow your roll, dude. And easy on the profanity. You're in the company of a lady. So now that James has his ego bruised, he is just loving wearing the power pants.

And it turns out James's suspicions of being similar to Ryan were right! Hair color totally makes people indistinguishable! As I type this, no joke, I am staring across the cafe at a very lovely brunette with bangs also typing on a Mac computer. I have a strong urge to cut her.

James, flirtinis make things real confusing.

DawsonGirl:

I have been waiting almost a week for this!! Best recap ever. I love this show. How they manage to gather up that many stupid, slutty 20 somethings is beyond me. Tania could be my favorite simply b/c she doesn't give a damn about anyone else or anything else. The worst of a person they are, the more that I want them to win.

baymenxpac:

Aw, you referenced my accent comment. I feel famous and loved all at the same time. Great recap. I, too, have been waiting all week. I love how they tried to make an aesthetic upgrade over season 1 by replacing the male hotel worker with the cute girl to deliver the messages. But the difference between 'to' and 'too'...pshhht. Common now that's a serious undertaking. And I just finished watching tonight's and I wish I had a direct line to you with all this comedy gold that we were subjected.

theinternetsensation:

dolls,

there was an onslaught of technical difficulties last week and i hope to god it's over and there won't be any more waiting a whole week to check back in with each other. criminal. to give you a sense of where i'm coming from, i didn't even get to view it until friday. and that was painful.

baymen, you must be on the east coast because i'm still waiting impatiently to see what's in store for tonight. i can always be reached for comedy gold through email (ginaclover@gmail.com), if tvgasm forums and these intermittent recaps aren't sufficient. (and yes, i totally gave a shout out to the irish comment.)

thank you so for the love. bonding with the community is what it's all about.
xox,lady sensation

Dr Leo Marvin:

Feel the ridge? The next thing you know he'll be wanting these broads to smell the glove.

yankeesfan:

I must have totally tuned out while I was watching bc I don't even remember seeing the night vision sex scene. I never watched the first season, but this show is definitely one of my faves. I think Orbi has that scruffy bad boy appeal. I'm actually from NJ and to an extent know what they're talking about with a connection (since everyone makes fun of NJ it is a bonding point to find someone from there) but I mean they are taking it over-board!

I also think Nathan was scared sh*tless when Raheem was coming at him at the breakfast table. He kept taking sips of water and had a nervous laugh.

MichyPR:

I just read in realityworld.com that Nathan committed suicide on october of last year...wow...I mean, is that common knowledge?

DP Hooker:

I missed the ridge talk too. Was that on the fox reality channel XXXXX rated after dark show? I know i saw an advertisement for a "steamier" episode on that channel later at night, but hot damn, if i had known I'd missed blurred jersey dick and ridge talk, i would have ordered the channel yesterday!

angerelli:

ok so I just have to ask.. has anyone noticed that Ryan.. I think that's his name.. that he's not like everyone else.. that he prefers boy's instead of girls.. I think it's obvious, and I don't get why he's on the show!! but great re-cap!!

angerelli:

I meant Nate.. he's the one who likes boys... sorry.. opps!

yankeesfan:

angerelli - after this last episode i did really get the feeeling that nate was gay..i forget who he was talking to, but he was giving him eyes.

TinkerbellAPixie:

The night vision ridge scene was on the Fox Reality version. I happened to tape both versions just to see if they really are that different.

And I agree, I've been thinking Nate seemed gay too. Virgin no-neck should pick him as a room mate than she'll be totally safe.
