Recap: Inferno: Giraffic Park Feet Markgate

by Unablogger

**Editor's Note: As you guys know, LCon's back has him out of the game for the Summer, so we are trying out some new writers. Check out this recap from Unablogger and tell us what you think!

If the Real World is a microcosm of America (which I don't actually believe but roll with me), then the crux of tonight's episode shows the divide America faces. We have a battle of epic (not really) proportions. Susie vs. Jen, red vs. blue, a Christian vs. a slut (I'm being harsh), old timer vs. newcomer, natural vs. fake, Real World vs. Road Rules. Forget all those Presidential debates that have been happening all week. This is what I really care about: which stupid girl can win an Inferno.

We open as usual in the giant house that these people get to live in, which is probably a pleasant break from their tiny studio apartments located right above Saddleranch on the Sunset Strip (if there is one thing being on the Real World trains you for it's riding mechanical bulls). Susie and Cara sit doing what they do best, gossiping and talking about how much they love each other.  Susie is complaining to Cara about how she has to go to the inferno again.  You know what Susie? If you keep complaining about going then stop talking how tough you are in testimonials.  I've decided that these two have a highly creepy co-dependent relationship with each other.  We've already seen Cara intentionally screw up before so Susie can get the life shield and I begin to wonder if they act this way in real life.  For example let's say Susie is worried that her quarterly report isn't up to snuff so Cara decides to make her quarterly report extra crappy to take the heat off Susie (yes in this fantasy Susie and Cara wear matching pants suits and work on their reports in neighboring cubicles).  Back to the show. Cara proves her co-dependency saying how her and Susie will cross the finish line together.

I'm totally confident.

Meanwhile in another part of the house one of the great meeting of minds is happening as Jen and Derrick sit and discuss the US situation in Iraq.  Derick thinks they should go with a Federal system and divide it up into 3 states (Sunni, Shia, and Kurds).  Jen however thinks the UN should take charge of the whole situation and open up talks with Iraq's neighbors such as Iran.  Then I realized I had changed the channel to the GOP debates and quickly turned back to MTV.  Instead, Jen and Derick are talking about how much it sucks that Jen has to go in the Inferno again.  She proceeds to call all the girls on the other team "bitches" (which is ridiculous, they have to vote a girl in why not call the producers bitches) and cusses a bunch.  Jen brags about how she earned her spot by beating 2 other girls, of course she neglects to mention how she cheated her way through that first inferno.

Quickly I'd like to complain about one thing to Bunim/Murry productions.  The inferno/gauntlet/battle of sexes have started to spend too much time about people talking about the game.  I really want these shows to be 10 minutes of challenge and 20 minutes of people getting drunk, making out, and yelling at each other.

Anyway it's finally challenge time and we get the obligatory shot of the gang getting a text about the challenge on their mobile device and no i will not help MTV with their plugs and name this device.  We see Ace do a stupid dance in excitement, usually i like ace but this dance was too much for even me.

This dance reminded me that I have no upper body strength.

I thought Ev was going to be such a competitor but shes has been a total bore. Suzie is ridiculous. I used to like her but way too much of her showing her crappy personality this season.

Uh, yeah it's good. Let's say something here. And give my regards to L-Con. But he never did a recap on this show since Rachel played baby. And that was EIGHT F**KING EPISODES HE MISSED, INCLUDING 2 HOUR LONG EPISODES (I guess MTV canned the lame "Living Lahaina"). I thought about taking his place, but how the f**k would I try to make up for EIGHT RECAPS. We should inform them what happened during the 6 WEEK HIATUS, but I'm happy that we're back on track.

I've always been sort of "meh" about Susie, but her whole thing with like, 'people shouldn't be celebrating for Paula because now I have to go into the inferno' definitely pushed me over into hating her. Blah. Also, is Cara even strong? Does she really do very well in these? Why isn't she getting put in the inferno? Why is she still there? I do NOT see the appeal. She sucks.

28 Giraffes later? I would love to see that movie.

Good recap, Unablogger. I hope you can handle all the stupidity and self-righeousness from these reality "stars".

Great recap Unablogger. Susie and Cara will only care about themselves. If Paula was the one to go into the inferno and Susie won the event, how do you think she would have reacted? The same way as the others did. I hope they both lose before the final.

i agree good recap....but you should've but that screen cap of Ev doing a running jump in the water. I thought that was sooo funny, she gets frustrated really easy. And she kinda looked manish in this episode.

Even though I don't care much for Jen, I would've liked her to beat Susie. That girl has gotten way too cocky and annoying. And did anyone see Cara do that weird move when before she ran off to go look for her matching giraffe? That was kinda scary

Jenn added some interest to the show, I'll actually miss having her around. She WAS kind of funny; last week when she made fun of Suzie I thought I was going to spray beer all over the TV! (I can't watch this shit without a drink or five).

I actually like Paula; I'm glad she's doing well and that she's not going nuts. Although I think I, like all of us, secretly long for her to scream, "KISS MY ASS! KISS MY GODDAMN ASS!"

Ubiquitous [TypeKey Profile Page]:

I am so over Susie's passive-aggressive bravo sierra, to be honest. It's a shame she didn't lose in the Inferno to Jenn.

nerrawllehctim [TypeKey Profile Page]:

I correct myself. It was SEVEN F**KING EPISODES L-CON MISSED, INCLUDING 2 HOUR LONG EPISODES. I never came across the recap of when anny got thrown in the Inferno. I never knew there actually was one. I understand that L-Con had a broken back, and I hope he gets better soon. But for a show that receives great recaps, it's a d****e move on his part to not give us those SEVEN RECAPS HE MISSED.

Leah3t [TypeKey Profile Page]:

btw what was up with those bathing suits? They must have been frm a sponsor because they were all the same but SO UNFLATTERING. Nobody looked good in them.

TinkerbellAPixie [TypeKey Profile Page]:

Great recap - I am so glad you did a screencap of Janelle's ass cuz I know I couldn't tear my eyes off of it.

Mitchell Warren - you need to take a deep breath and let all your lost episode anger go. Back pain is the absolute worst so don't be so hard on L-Con.

"Also Paula had a scarf on."

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

sorry, i find that to be comic genius! Awesome end to the recap!
