This is sort of frightening. Maybe it's the lack of cow product wrapped around his torso, or perhaps it's the clarity and whiteness (read: no blood-shotness) in his eyes that allow us to see that they're blue. Maybe it's because he's not wearing a douchey hat or motorcycle helmet. Don't get me wrong, I still hate him, but I don't know what it is. Suddenly our Justin-Bobby has become - dare I say it? - kinda fuckable. He advises Blahdrina (who's been pretending to scramble eggs and jabbering on about how she doesn't feel comfortable in the house, which we all already knew) to just move out. Sure, just run away from the problem! No need to discuss it with the two other adults with whom you signed a legal document... just ditch the problem altogether so you won't have to deal with it at all. But I must say, Pigpen seems to be at least listening and trying to pay attention to Blahdrina. Huh. I'm starting to side with Spencer and Pigpen??? What kind of world are we living in? Down is up!
But don't worry, dear reader. All is back to disgusted normal as I watch Pigpen give a half strawberry cunnilingus while staring at Blah(ughhhH)drina.
"If you play your cards right, this berry could be YOU..."
At Van Nuys Airport, a private jet is waiting for Heidi and those old dudes going with her to Vegas. She steps out of the limo and boards the jet like Jackie O. or something, all full of class and shit. Once in the air, Sam (NOT hot, for all you Stephanies out there... more just like your creepy Uncle Dino who may or may not be in the mafia) asks Heidi what was stopping her from traveling before. I would like to say she is demure and politely avoids the question, but the truth is, she stutters with no answer to even bullshit her way out. She'll make a fine PR rep. At Brent's pressing, she says (aloud!) that she had a boyfriend but that they broke up. Can I get that in writing?
"Want me to have him killed?"
These fellows, too, tease her about how crazy Spencer will get when he finds out she's on a trip to Vegas. I just don't see what the big deal is - I've been on plenty of business trips and none of them began or ended with a breakup (or even the threat of one). What do you guys think? Is Heidi leaving for longer than I thought?
Meanwhile, Spencer goes over to Heidi's apartment and comes right in (after knocking, of course). He explores the empty apartment with confusion (and possible fear of a burglar).
"Dude, there's a dude in my house!!"
After verifying that his woman is not, in fact, home, he calls his loving sister to say what the hell? I'm just curious as to how he knew that Heidi was gone baby gone when she could have easily been, you know... at the mall?
So, in conclusion... I'm wondering why Heidi seemed even more uptight than usual this week - she's not a good enough actress to convey that extra layer of worry and not a good enough actress to hide real worry under the guise of just relationship woes. I wonder if this was shot around the same time as her stepbrother's unexpected death, because I know that the producers decided not to integrate it into the season. I thought maybe the Vegas thing was just a way for her to get to go home and she wouldn't be there next episode, but sure enough, next week's finale is fraught with Vegas showdowns. Can't the girl get a break? Anyway, as I said.... next week's the finale! Shots on me!

Great recap! I am embarrassingly addicted to this stupid show...I mean lauren is so boring...blah is, well blah. And Lo is such a bitch...but I love it! And Justin Bobby is looking good...especially since the only other guys on the cast are Heidis bosses and pubey faced Spencer. Looking forwward to the season finale recap...

How can you even compare Alkaline Trio to the pop punk of today? Fall Out Boy? Yeesh. I mean, I'll grant you the similarities of Chicago bands, and the fact that Alkaline Trio basically laid the groundwork for a shitton of punk music. But they are NOT the same. Much darker, much better, much less poppy.
Also, they just signed on to a major record label this year and had an LP release, so this is the record company's bullshit. Don't hold it against them that they're forced to do this. Blame the fatcats in the industry.
You have offended me O. Snapp. Musically, which is the worst to me.
In conclusion, "fuck, even Bella" is a great name for a dog.

I agree with you about the Vegas trip not being a big deal. They tried to make a big deal with Lauren and Brody when she went to Paris too. I don't know when it became a relationship deal-breaker to go out of town for business for a couple days. Oh wait, yes I do...I somehow forgot how fake the Hills is. They have to make big deals about stupid stuff that normal people wouldn't care about so they can make storylines! I better tell my boyfriend I'm going out of town for the weekend, do you think he'll freak? He might break up with me though!!!
Lo sucks.

Lo is a stupid spoiled bitch that seriously didnt even need to be on this show.
4 of 20 | Posted by loves2play05 | Posted on May 7, 2008 3:15 PM
I find it funny that people keep calling Lo a bitch.
She just seems like the kind of person who gets tired of women who keep going back to their jerkwad exs. Maybe she just doesn't want to be around blah. She knows she be crying again in 2 or 3 weeks when JB craps all over her again. It can get tiresome.
Didn't see her around much when LC went back to Jason...just saying.

Well, Lo actually is a bitch... "in real life" so despite what you see on camera... at least ya know what she's like when she's not "acting." wait now im even confused as to who the real Lo is. Maybe being a bitch in real life was her just practicing for the show... ah, what "laguna beach fame" can do for you.

Awesome recap again, O. Snapp! I loved all the captions (the NAAS one might have been my favorite, though) and all the different names for abodes. Nice work.
And, yeah, Lo is a total bitch, but I've been saying that since the LB days. I wish she would own it, though, instead of pretending she's perky and sweet. Nothing's more annoying than that kind of fake.

I just wanted to say that Chloe is indeed a pet name. My cat is named Chloe =). Also, maybe Spencer was wondering where the hell Heidi could have been because she doesn't have any friends to go out with besides his sister.

I never heard the title "project manager" come out of Brent's mouth but then again I was paying too much attention to that chick formally known as Heidi. Between staring at her over-injected mouth and her constant moving of hair, I couldn't stay focused on the convo.

"I'm boooorrrred! Talk to meeeee!" I still think the oil bladder is a good idea....

wait, when did Heidi's brother die? I didn't hear about this.
I agree with everyone whos says that Lo is a bitch. Yeah Lo and Lauren have been friends for a long time, but they actually didn't start out that way. I guess when they were in elementary school or junior high....Lo was kind of one of the 'popular' girls and Lauren and her weren't friends. Eventually they did become friends. I have the 'Laguna Beach, Life inside the bubble' book. What? Am I the only one?
Why do people hate Justin Bobby so much? He's hot! He's always been hot. I'm team JB. Here's to hoping Audrina or even Lauren will put Lo in her place.
I can't wait for Lo to get sprung on some guy and then get her heart stomped on so she knows what it feels like and actually have some sympathy for these girls instead of being so cold hearted. I swear, I hate friends like these.

Very, very funny recap O. Snapp. Thank you very much for the good read.
Lo is really turning out to be quite the bitch, huh? I can't believe Lauren is that unaware. It seems like every season she has a new best friend, someone new to "greet her" in the opening credits sequence.
Oh, and did anyone else notice Spencer's shoes changed from when he got out of his car (white sneakers) to when he walked into Heidi's apartment (black sneakers)? Hmmmmm! Suspicious! (Or does he change his shoes for each activity: "These are my driving shoes, and these are my barging-into-my-exgirlfriend's-apartment-shoes!")

^^ Amyeditor- Actually, Perez Hilton had a post about that yesterday. Spencer's shoes were one color when he was at the door of the apartment, and another color when he was walking through it.
Also, loved the message he left for Stephanie, forget how it went, but ripe with bad slang, ending with "lates", for later? Loser.

i love your re-caps. u are so frickin funny, and clever. :)
amyeditor- i didnt notice that at all, now i will have to watch the damn thing again. but in O.Snapps last screen-cap, spence is in white shoes, inside heidi's apt. so i dont thin k he changed them when getting out of the car, walking through the door, and back again. this show bothers me becasue we see all of the photos of heidi and spence(unfortunalty) all over US mag and celeb gossip sites, so we know they are still together, amnd basically always have been. The staged their "breakup" and reuntited-ness to sell mags and make cash. besides that i never really seen them break up, there is a new pick every fuckin day of them being total jackoffs and posing for the camera. and i cannot stop looking at heidis face. she has the wierdest and most annoying facial expressions, and she tries to act all sophisticated and professional and it comes off looking like she has some kind of disease or something. she looks and acts so FAKE FAKE FAKE. The old heidi of LB and season 1, was fun loving and normal. now she is a freak. and i hate LC's clothing line. im sorry that is not fashion. the clothes are as boring as she is.

Awesome recap!! Laughed out loud many, many times. I'm a bit disappointed about Lo's behavior on the show...I thought she would be a nice addition to the show...instead she seems to bring an uncomfortable tension. Hopefully things will change!
15 of 20 | Posted by dani2526 | Posted on May 8, 2008 2:15 PM
jozeyg - I completely agree...JustinBobby has always been hot! I actually liked him scruffy as well, but I also like him clean shaven....he seems to have shaped up some too and had some good advice.
as far as Heidi...I can't stand the girl. Who says "that's brilliant" to their boss...mine would probably look at me like I had 5 heads if I said that...
Lo is a b*tch and I almost dislike Lauren just as much for letting it happen...the girl needs to take some of her own advice...Lo is not a nice girl!

Hahaha loved that the dog bit LC on the boob, but there is nothing to bite. She and Lo have the exact same bodies (except lo is a little bigger) but no curves whatsoever.

"Brilliant" recap!
You're so right about JB looking kinda cute in this episode. What some hygiene will do for a guy, huh. Lo is obviously jealous of Blahdrina's relationship with LC and is trying to edge her out. She's hoping that all of the tension will make Blah just leave on her own. Passive-aggressive to the nth degree.
I'm starting to think Lo has a problem with brunettes (except for Stephen, of course). She's making comments that are purposely making Audrina feel left out. "Blue eyes like us!" "TWO mommies!" Audrina is nicer than me, because I would've hurt Lo's feelings by now. She really is an ugly girl with an ugly attitude.

I liked you until you insulted Alkaline Trio. Granted, everyone's taste in music is different but they are a credible band that's been around long before Fall Out Boy. Lame.
19 of 20 | Posted by missk | Posted on May 12, 2008 12:30 PM
Yeah, partysunflower, I messed up and switched the order: when he gets out of the car, his sneakers are black, and inside they are white. But watch it again! Really obvious once you notice.
