Back at the parade, Dumby has chosen gay Mardi Gras as the time to reveal that his grandfather tried to molest him when he was a boy. Shauvon is shocked to hear the confession. You're telling me. I mean, it certainly explains a lot about him, but what a time to unload!

Vneck
Don't flatter yourself. He was probably judging your v-neck.

When I pick myself up off the floor, I am delighted to see Dumby having more fun that anyone at gay Mardi Gras, except maybe Isaac, who has literally joined the parade (having a camera crew following you has its benefits) and is waving his rainbow flag around like he's auditioning for Queer Eye - The Next Generation.

As the sinners head home, they can't stop talking about how much they loved the parade, and how it was the best parade EVER! Next stop, Halloween in West Hollywood! They decide that as for the preachers back home, it was their loss. But it turns out, KA is regretful. She isn't scared of going to hell anymore, now that she's already been there and back with Cow and Trasha.

Trasha is shaving her legs in the tub of the most fabulous bathroom in Sydney. I don't get this. I multi-task and just do it in the shower. But, I guess keeping a hermetically sealed mind must leave plenty of time to devote to grooming. Shauvon tries to tell her what she missed, but Trash could care less.

Meanwhile, Dumby continues his crusade to make himself seem human, and is opening up to Parisa. His home life was unbearable (Dad beat the crap out of him, as we learned last week), but avoiding his incestuous Grandpa's advances wasn't much better. Parisa recognizes that people have let him down a lot, and she understands why he is so hostile.

I myself am feeling a little bad for all the shit I've given him so far, but when you sign up for this gig, you're signing up to become whatever "character" the producers want to make you. Big up to the producers though, for showing us a deeper layer. And a fuck you too, for making me deal with a thoughtful episode. I don't have these problems with Rock of Love.

Cowlame
Now that there's how a girl's supposed to be.

Parisa asks if Dumby wishes it was different for him, but he says no. The hard times have made him a fighter. Because of what he's been through, he knows he'll never be balled up in a corner with the world kicking his ass. It's touching, and I'm furious. Please, Dumby, why are you doing this to me? I can't take it if the gay bashers are the only ones I have to make fun of.

We wrap up in a bar (Cargo, most likely) with Trasha and Cow agreeing that if one of them says or does something negative, they will tell the other. Well then, Cow tells her, I guess we just won't be talking much anymore. He mimics her line from the beginning of this episode, saying if he can't say anything, he just won't talk. Since pretty much everything either one of them said in the last half hour made me want to vomit, that's fine by me. I say we trade these two in for a flaming tranny, anyone with me?

Tune in next week when Dumby takes Parisa's side, and Trasha's still a bitch. I'm poisoning up my daggers as we speak...see you then!

susanarosa:

Dumby and Isaac totally redeemed themselves in this incredibly disturbing episode.

Even taking this episode into consideration, I'm quite enjoying this season so far.

shia0bundan:

?
Was that the entire recap?

shia0bundan:

Nvmmm disregard my past comment.

I didn't realize the page numbers are on top now.

nerrawllehctim:

No. They must have remodeled the website.

lloyd dobbler:

Chickbomb!!!!! Great recap, but yeah dumby is almost likable in this episode dancing with the, what were they syncronized swim team from san francisco? Trasha give me a break, she is miss big time christian, well then love your fellow man instead of constantly being a judgemental beyotch!!

reeny7x:

hmmm talk about bigotry. calm down against the Christians ChickBomb- I dont think they meant it like that, Trasha just seems obviously confused and upset over the issue, and Cow just believes in what he believes in. not everyone has to share your views.

blahblah:

It makes no sense to put the page numbers only at the top. When we're done reading a page, we have to keep scrolling back up? Boooo!

takingbacksunday:

great job recap chickbomb you said everything i was thinking
i really wanted to jump through my tv and strangle trisha. what a fucking hypocrite.. but isaac and dumby really made up for it

SnackyCakes420:

I didn't like Parisa at first, but it seems like she's mellowed out and is enjoying herself more. I like KA because she does seem like a genuinely nice person who just wants everyone to get along. Bummer for her she chickened out on Gay Mardi Gras.

I couldn't stand Trasha or Cow this episode at all. I thought the basis of Christianity is love, acceptance, and treating others like you would want to be treated. So I guess Trasha wants to be judged and condemned for who she loves and how she chooses to live her life.

I'm glad you were able to write this though (as lame and gross as their behavior was), because your recap was funny but still made really good points!

miss tint:

I feel like I have to defend my Australian brothers dress sense.
I, as a born and bred Aussie, was shocked and dismayed at the outfit KA's date chose to represent us to the international community.
I promise you that the matter has been dealt with and won't occur again on these shores.

LaBeLLaViTa:

while i dont agree with the WAY Trisha expressed her opinions,I dont think its right to bash people just because they dont agree with the gay lifestyle.

The same way gays want people to respect their opinion of what they think its right, they have to respect that others may not believe their lifestyle to be right. everyone doesnt have to AGREE w/ the gay lifestyle, but they can respect someones RIGHT to have that lifestyle.

If Trasha said that she wouldnt feel comfortable at the parade..she can stay home if she wants to. She could have been less offensive in the way that she expressed herself, but she had the right to stay home & not be harassed about it. And it turn the roomates didnt have to be harassed for ATTENDING the parade..

...although i dont recall where she ever harassed anyone for going. she just said SHE couldnt go.

bottom line..everyone respect everyones opinions.

ajerseyromance:

but if there's one thing the holy rollers know how to do, it's mold an argument to only apply to them.

Well said. Good recap.

Frenchy:

I'd like to know what the "Gay Lifestyle" is. Most of the gay people I know of pretty much do the same sorts of things that I do, it's just that they do the intimate things with members of the same sex.

Great recap...and please continue to bash these idiots.

bonash:

How do you not understand 'hate the sin, not the sinner?' if someone believes that homosexuality is wrong, it doesn't mean that he/she is afraid of gay people or hates gay people. you may not agree with the lifestyle, but you can still be friends with the person and appreciate them. it does NOT mean that you have to support them in that specific manner, and it's kind of ridiculous to call people ignorant if they feel that way.

sunshine858619:

good recap!! i think i've always liked isaac and he is pretty much the voice of reason.

I don't think KA missed the gay mardi gras b/c she was uncomfortable w/ it, i think she skipped out b/c she wanted to stay w/ Cow and is already jealous of Trasha and Cow's flirty friendship. She was only policing the two. I doubt she is THAT nice, she proved she has a fake side to her.

I didn't like Parisa or Dumby so much initially, but they are kind of redeeming themselves, scary!!!

mattypopo:

Yeah Trasha is an obnoxious sloot, but she had every right not to go to Mardi Gras, same with Kid Deliverance. If you are going to preach the Christianity acceptance speech, that you better start preaching the other side od acceptance.

Hell, my girlfriend hates the fact that I like "Heroes" doesn't mean I force her to watch it to accept who I am. It would be nice if both sides weren't so punchy and just threw the "different strokes. . . " line out there.

CheriesTake:

I wish Trasha would just get a grip. Take a lesson from Cow. He has his opinions about being gay but he was quiet about it and didn't turn it into a Help me God snotfest. You can be a Christian and not be a tard. That girl is a TARD. She acts like being gay is a disease and it's contagious! Wait a minute, I have been getting this incredible urge to listen to Liza Minelli after reading flipit's recaps.....But I digress, Great recap, chickbomb. Keep em coming!

the_baddest_bitch:

I have to agree with all the trashing of Trasha. Nothing is more annoying than a self-righteous, Christian-when-it's-convenient slut. The arrogance of anyone to think that the gay community needs their approval is just appalling. People need to mind their own business. She didn't have to go, but she didn't have to act as though she was choosing between good and evil. Gay people are not evil. They're just people. No more evil than us heterosexuals. People like Trasha are just annoying. I'm sure if we took a look in her closet, there are all kinds of freaky skeletons hanging out. And would someone tell that dumb whore how horrible her trailer park dye job is? She should go to hell for that alone!

bakismaki:

funny in this ep I found myself finding Trasha physically attractive but repulsive at the same time. That's pretty much how I feel about all the chicks in this house.

alligatorwings:

Such a stupid bitch. Trasha is really living up to the Fresno reputation. And I'm sure here hookerwear is a real hit with God too. I'm so sick of "Christian" people using gays and sexual ORIENTATION (it's not a lifestyle--fuck, c'mon people) to demonstrate some faux sense of personal or moral convictions on these shows. If she needed to stay on moral high ground, why go on RW? Completely transparent bullshit gyrations to feel like less of the hypocrite. And you know she's for real, cuz if she had real gay friends, they'd immediately tie her down and fix those fucked up clownbrows and that horrible dye job. Go back to Clovis, bitch--your trailer is waiting!
