This week on The Island, Ryan gets a key, Johanna gets a new name, and Johnny continues to make me feel...
I don't know, kinda "icky."
We open at night and the conversation of the evening is about Johnny and Kenny's asses. Johnny is telling the group that his ass is higher and tighter than Kenny's, and that Kenny's ass is "loose and weird." High and tight, loose and weird. Whatever, you're both dicks. Why are we splitting hairs here? And I would be doing my former favorite joke a disservice if I failed to add: your mother's loose and weird. Seriously I used to run that mother joke like it was my job. It was my very own "That's What She Said." Ah to be young and offensive again. Well, at least offensive.
Anyway, this little ass convo inspires Kenny, Johnny and Dan to strip down, compare asses and have the nicest ass winner selected. With none other than Ryan being the final judge. Tim Gunn, eat your heart out. It's just your basic run of the mill ass-off, if you will. You know, like on South Park when Paris Hilton and Mr. Slave had a whore-off. Only in this case, no one engulfs a pineapple with their vagina. At least not on screen anyway.
Meanwhile Jen makes a face of disgust as Johnny tells Ryan not to look inside his butt crack, because he hasn't wiped in a while. And there goes the gag reflex. Wow, Gag Relfex, I haven't seen you since that night in college with the 40s of Eight Ball, and that frat brother named Moose. I've missed ya buddy. Good to have ya back.
I don't think I could possibly be any less attracted to a person than I am to Johnny. Seriously, he's managed to succeed to number one on my list of the most unattractive men in America. Former holder of the top seed:
This guy
Anyway I didn't think that guy from Ghost would ever be usurped, but I was proven wrong this past weekend when I had a dream in which there was some crazy natural disaster that demolished most of the earth. And the only three surviving species were myself, Johnny Bananas and this gigantic elephant that was badly injured. Somehow we all wound up lumped together. And almost instinctively the elephant got up and started collecting what little fruit was left on the trees. Like the elephant knew that it was up to us to help the world continue on. And then God looked down from the heavens and said, "McSteeny, it's up to you. The only way for life to carry on is for you reproduce." And I looked at Johnny who had a huge smile on his face. And I shook my head, dreading my fate. But then I looked at the elephant, who was still hard at work, fighting off his injuries and sacrificing for the sake of the future. I didn't like it, but I knew what I had to do. So I looked up at God and said, "Okay fine, but if you need me to do it, you're gonna have to send down a ladder and some KY."
Somehow Ryan decides that Johnny has the best ass, followed by Kenny. Dantastic's ass, Ryan tells us, leaves something to be desired. Something, like, say, Pepto Bismol? The next day Dunbar, Kenny and Johnny are talking about how Johanna told them that Jen has been running her mouth trying to campaign against The Family. I knew it was you Fredo. You broke my heart. Anyway, it's decided that Jen needs to go. They find Ryan and tell him that they will agree to send him into the face-off if he promises to take Jen's key if he wins. Get serious gentlemen. Ryan and Jen are besties. Have you not seen Will and Grace? The gays are nothing if not loyal to their hags.
Meanwhile Dunbar is pissed off because he doesn't like how Ryan is just like the girls and makes his decisions based on made up friendships that he's formed with people within just a few weeks of meeting them on this island. Yes, Dunbar, because your alliances are based on much more important things than that. Like chauvinistic bonds and who else agrees that "No," sometimes means "harder."

I also had no idea where the Colie/Johanna BFF thing came about. that was so random - also when did Colie join in the Family alliance? That came out of nowhere too. I had forgotten Colie was even on this show until she reared her ugly head over and over again this episode.
Do she and Jen hate each other? You never see them interact; there was no emotion when Jen voted her out, and I just found it weird that Colie would be closer with Johanna when usually girls on the same season stay tight. Maybe Colie is still angry about the Alex/Burned Pizza Night in Denver....COLORADO.

Loved the recap!!
You're mention of the name Susie made me think of the last challenge that had the awful Susie on it and made me thankful that she's not on my T.V. screen now with her annoying voice.

Dearest Doc McSteeny...
I don't know how you watch this show sometimes and still overcome the urge to staple your eyelids shut... every time Johnny Bananas calls somebody "ya dumb bitch!" my heart wants to die a little. Someone we both know told me that they felt Johnny's crotch with a (supposed) woody and that he really DOES have a teeny peeny, which would explain why he is such a bastard, but it doesn't excuse it. You're doing a great job of keeping us up to date on what's up, and I lurve your writing...
love, J-Mo :)

I was so loving the last screencap that I totally missed those little words about the next episode is the finale. I just might blow it up to poster size and hang it on my wall. Just kidding. I'm not that lame. I'd only use it as my new wallpaper.
Yeah so, here I am watching the episode last night and all of the sudden I realize... hey, this is it! They can't possibly stretch it to another episode --- this is it !!!
Can't wait to chatter about it with you good folks. Until then this one's all we got.
Not surprised Ryan took KellyAnne's key. He really didn't have a choice if he wanted to keep the friends he had made (and keep seeing their drunken naked asses.)
Jenn certainly has loyal friends. Even with The Family's pressure, Rachel and Ryan wouldn't screw her over. Very commendable.
