And the next day, it's time to go home. "Mexi-coh was amazing," Blondie tells us, and she is grateful to have experienced such an amazing country. Just as long as she didn't have to be in the dirty parts. Blondie, please never leave the U.S. again. You are the reason why people hate Americans. Slick gives one more shout out to StudentCity.com, so I will too. Look, I never got my chaise people. Dolt is sad to be leaving Mexico as well. Or, "mucho saddo", as he puts it. My stay-in-the-U.S. advice to Blondie goes for Dolt too.
Horsey, however, cannot wait to get home because One Month Jeremy is there! On the van ride back to the airport, they congratulate Dolt on not having been arrested, and then they make fun of his pidgin Spanish, which is pretty funny. But all Dolt knows is he had a great time. They head up the escalator at the airport, the plane takes off, and adios, Mexico.
You can't tell, but the doorman is crying.
As soon as they get into the Real World house, Horsey is on the phone with her boyfriend. "Do you want to come over?" she asks eagerly. Why, come to the Real World house? Of course he does! He only started dating her for her Real World alternate status in the first place. He enters the hallowed temporary fencing, and Horsey tells us that he has a huge smile on his face and he's so happy to see her. Humility, sweet humility.
She intros him around the house. Stripper barely looks up from her magazine to anoint him gorgeous. Yeah, nobody cares about the alternate roommate's boyfriend. Are they really going to try and make a storyline out of this? Slick thinks he seems like a cool guy. Horsey is worried about telling One Month Jeremy about cheating with Rick James. She takes him out, but cause she's a total loser, she takes him to the only place in Hollywood she knows, the Improv Olympics bar. Way to show the dude a good time. Oh, and she chickens out of telling him about the kiss with Rick. Zzzzzzzz.
The next day, Rick James calls Janelle. He really does seem to be taking this break up hard. But Janelle surprises him by answering. She has to say "hello" about five times before Rick can even speak, and when he does, he tells her he doesn't know what to say because he didn't think she was going to pick up the phone. Really? Cause there's a whole week of shooting left, and Janelle surely wasn't going to miss out on that. "Well, say what you were going to say on my answering machine then," Janelle snaps at him. You go girl! Make him face up to this! Then she talks for him, and tells him that in his brave, brave email, he wasn't even apologetic.
He assures her that he is sorry, but she's so disappointed. "I know you are, but I need your friendship right now," he tells her. Oh please. Now he wants her friendship? Janelle isn't having it, or at least not til he begs her a little more. Rick says that he's used to being able to talk his way out of things, but in Janelle, he's met his match. Janelle tells him she'll never understand why he would do something so retarded, and to enjoy the rest of his time in LA. That's it?
The next day at the Improv, One Month Jeremy is telling Rick James that he has to come visit him back home, he'll be his tour guide. I love how Rick is making besties with Horsey's boyfriend, it's totally pissing Horsey off. She stands in a corner stewing. But she stews in profile, so at least she looks prettier. Rick says he feels cheated by Horsey, because he came clean to Janelle, but Horsey never did with her boyfriend.
And then, it's time for One Month Jeremy to go home. Well, that trip lasted five minutes. And Horsey never tells him about the kiss. She gives a whole long excuse about why not. I could care less. Are we done with these two? Okay yes, it looks like we are. What a waste of screen time.
Me too! I'm carrying a baby with a tiny sweatband on.
That night, Dolt and Slick are complaining about Rick's sulky mood. If she told him it was over, than it's over and he needs to move on, is Dolt's advice. "This isn't Tres Amigos, it's like Dos and a Half," he exclaims. Oh, good one Dolt. I find you adorable once about every six episodes.

Nice recap CB.
I got distracted while watching the ep, and when I came back to the TV I saw Rick making a constipated face at the mirror and thought, wth? And then he fliply says to the camera that he faked tears. LMAO. Good one.
Can't wait for next week's episode. I watched the preview on MTV Overdrive... All I can say is, Bri is awesome.

Great Recap!
Horsey is a hot mess. She made herself look like a super loser. Why is she so obsessed with Will? When she found out he had a girlfriend she should have moved the f*@k on.
Will's Oscar winning performace at the end left me with my jaw on the floor. Janelle is probably going to be even more pissed about that then the kiss, because at least he was honest about the kiss.

CB that recap was amazing. The Ross Geller/Friends reference . . . brilliant. These people may be annoying but damn if I haven't been entertained as hell this season. I can't believe this but I'm not ready for it to be over yet.

Does anyone else not buy the Will/Janelle storyline? She doesn't seem to like him much. She always turns her face away when he goes in to kiss her. And she seemed way too proud of herself when he started "crying" in front of her. I don't believe the 2 of them are together for a second.

it seems pretty evident that Janelle is using Will for screentime which CB has nailed on that point. well played.

Great recap as usual and I heard Janelle/Will dated for a little bit after this, but Janelle wasn't really into him that much. Clearly she wanted screentime and after the show was over she just bailed.
JasonR I feel the same way, I don't even want this season to end. I'm actually going miss this cast yes all of them are idiots but this was a good season nonetheless and it looks like they they go out with a bang on the last episode.

I found it funny when they showed Will and Janelle in bed and she asked him "Will, where are you going?" and he said "Third base" and she said no and left. Then he said that he was so horny and started talking about how he might do something in Mexico that he'd regret. God he's such a pansy. I think it's pretty obvious that she's not really into him, they are all so stupid. I also thought that Goody was just jealous that Will was actually paying attention to another female in the house instead of her. I don't want this season to be over because they have given CB a lot of material to work with and make fun of, but if I never see Blondie or Goody on my TV screen again,after the finale and the reunion of course (I'm such a loser), it'll be too soon.

I really hate Kim and Sara, the only reason they talk shit to Bri like that is if this was the "real world" those two self righteous cunts would've got their asses beat a long time ago. I love how Kim is so classy but she sat her krusty boney ass naked in the confessional after she made out w/a dozen people. That's not trashy?? And someone needs to punch Goody in that big shit smelling nose of hers.

Stripper, Goody, Janelle, Horsey. Sooo...Will has liked damn near every chick on the show at this point. I used to think Will is hot (ok, I still do), but I would hate to be his gf. His taste is so indiscriminate. I mean, Goody? Really?
I'm on Team Janelle. I went to school with her in the Bay Area and she is nice (although she comes off a bit stuck up at first).

Oh...and Blondie and Goody still disgust me. Stripper has been very good about staying cool under the Bitchy Twins' pressure. I wouldn't have gotten as loud as Stripper at the restaurant, but I WOULD have gotten a couple nice FYIs in at that table.
Blondie - you're not as hot or as classy as you think you are. Exhibits A, B, and C: your tacky homemade bottle blond job, annoying twangy accent, and straight ho-eyness in the club after a couple drinks.
Goody - you're not as cute or morally upstanding as you think you are. Exhibits A & B: your dorky-as-hell boyfriend and drunk escapades that *surprise!* are on tape for the world (and yes, that includes your parents and bf) to see.
THE END
