Heidi tries to apologize (for real! not even in the LC "I'm sorry you feel bad" way!) but Brent completely lays the smack down. He tells Heidi exactly what everybody else has not been able to say, because, in case you haven't noticed, none of them are very well-spoken, clear-thinking or intelligent. I am so impressed by him that I will give you his smackdown verbatim. Just imagine it with Heidi yip-yapping in the background.
"Dude, your boyfriend's a nightmare. What's wrong with you? You're an adult, you're responsible for your own actions. You can't let people like that influence your life and make bad decisions for you." Oh man. Then the cherry on top: "Don't you know that you are the company you keep?" Dayumm. This man was raised well.
And just got a little hotter.
Heidi then has the gall to ask him for her job back. He shakes his head repeatedly, telling her it's the last thing on his mind and she should probably ask Sam, not him. (and probably wear hot pants and nipple tassels while she does it.)
In New York, Whitney is doing the most unadvisable thing in singledom history by talking about her ex-boyfriend and breaking up in general. "It's, like, the worst thing ever!" she exclaims. You know, I love the girl, but sometimes there's just a little too much space between her left ear and her right ear. In other news tonight...
Wouldn't their kids be so cute? And have weird accents? And perfect teeth?
By this time, Alex has had enough and interrupts their deep conversation by telling her he's leaving. "Do you wanna go say g'bye to him?" Aussie asks. "Um, not really," says the new bitch in town. We've never seen this side of Whitney! Jay asks her to leave with him, and as they gather their coats she giggles maniacally, flips her hair and tickles her nose. Either she's really nervous or totally coked out. I'm guessing she just hasn't gotten laid in awhile.
"Ahahahaha, I'm sure this will have no repercussions when I move to New York!"
As the credits play out, shy Alex looks so heartbroken that I just want to hug him to my bosom and tell him everything will be okay, and does he want to get a drink? I live in New York too, you know.

As usual, the re-cap was much more interesting then the show. Is it just me, or is Heidi starting to resemble Michael Jackson?

That scene from the credits that you like has already been shown! It was from when they went to Vegas about when they were either going on or getting off the plane - I specifially remember that shirt LC was wearing bc I thought it was odd that it had a racerback.
Anyway - great recap - the Aussie was hot, but seemed a little on the short side. They are totally setting Whitney up for her show.

Brent Bolthouse is my new hero.

Maybe it is just me, but Brent seemed like he was in love with Heidi and truly sad that he had to fire her. Even when she was begging for her job back, he got soft. He was tough at first, but then kind of smiled and said he would definitely talk to Sam. It wasn't a huge brilliant smile, but there was a small smile in there. Definitely gave me the feeling that he was feeling the little Pocket Sprite. (Great line by the way!) I was shocked to see him tower over her!! I wondered if he had been standing on something...

Since Heidi's "job" at Bolthouse was fake to begin with, so was her "firing". I honestly wish it had been real.

I always got the impression that Sam is a very big guy thus making everyone around him look small. I bet Brent is about average size.
Great recap. I couldn't believe how Whitney just blew off Alex. So what that he's shy. To me that means the guy is less likely to be an ass and jerk you around.
I loved when Brent told Heidi off regarding Spencer. Too funny!

Not done the recap (I just skimmed) but I was very pleased to see that you covered the Brent/Heidi/Spencer fiasco explicitly. I am SO glad that somebody finally handed Heidi her ass. Now, as we know from the previews, Sam gives her her job back, but they still told her that Spencer is not allowed at her work functions anymore. Which, considering that her work is basically one giant office party, kind of sucks for her. But do I feel bad? NO!
And thatswhatshesaid, yeah, I was wondering if Brent was standing on something, but in the far away shots I don't think he was and he looked equally ginormous over Heidi. How tall is she anyway? Spencer, I figure, is somewhere in the 5'10/5'11 region and he was nose to nose with Brent. So Heidi would be less than 5'5, I'm guessing. But she never looks that short next to Spencer...
Oh, why do I even care so much?

Georgiababe - yep, you are right. We are spending an inordinate amount of time on Brent's height. I think after him looking so short last week and then looming over everyone this week it was just surprising... A theory about Heidi is that she probably wears really high heels so that makes her closer in height to Spencer...Just a thought.
okay, and done! :)

That Lisa CuntThroat looks like SATAN! The chinese girl on the phone was probably talking to a customer. Was she suppposed to just hang up on them?
And Heidi gets her job back. I wonder.... did she spit or swallow??
