As we can see from their easy camaraderie, the girls are getting along rather well. Otherwise we wouldn't see such totally mundane shit; we'd be seeing angry glares and silences across the tables of Hollywood nightclubs and hearing drunken declarations of Frankie's love for everyone.

Apparently, Lauren has heard of WHITE TIE AFFAIR, album in stores now!, and Blahdrina sweetly invites her to the show.

"Am I going to have to bob my head awkwardly? Because I thought we went over this."

Blahdrina mentions how she invited Pigpen and how supportive he's been, to which LC notes that he'll always be there for her in that way. Sure, sure, until some slutty redhead in a black wifebeater comes along. Then you get a Dumpster confrontation. But those are fun too.

They gab about Holly and Stephanie, and Blahdrina notes how weird it is that they've both been hanging out with LC. Yeah, hmmm, hangers-on! Beware Lauren! Sometimes they could even be living in your backyard! Upon mention of living with Spencer and Heidi, the girls trade looks of utter disgust.

"There's not enough MAC lipliner in the world..."


At the WTA show, a twitchily enthusiastic, greasy guy reminiscent of Jimmy Fallon's character in "Almost Famous," hereafter known as Charlie Walk, President of Epic Records, gathers the band and his bitches around for a group prayer to the gods of alcohol before the big show. The boys, who look like an emo version of Franz Ferdinand (which completely pains me to say, as I love FF), are fronted by a fey incarnation of Mark McGrath, whose hairstyle must have taken hours to perfectly muss.

"How about you rip this vest off me and I'll show you my four chest hairs?"


If there is anything I hate in this world (and listen, that is a LONG list, which includes unnecessary war, subway farters, cardboard on my fingernails, Sarah Palin and Heidi's plastic surgeon), it is watching people rock out on television. It makes me immeasurably uncomfortable to watch people swing their arms about disinterestedly, as in this case.

It's only okay when the rock-outer in question is holding a guitar or a mic. And even then...

"I... just wanna fly"

Peeves aside, LC shows up with Lo and Stephanie in tow, who looks especially fiendish tonight.

"Where's the drugs!"

The blondies get into the groove and even Lo annoyedly half-shimmies to the music. But as the girls realize Pigpen ain't around (how odd! Once one drama is resolved, another magically appears!), Blahdrina loses her desire to throw her hands in the air. I guess she just don't care.

Nobody does


Back at Jerkface Centrale, Holls is reading the latest Cosmo mag when Heidi bonjours in, donning a black beret and hideous of-the-shoulder rag a la "Flashdance." Honestly, the girl makes me want to vomit just by dressing herself in the morning. Heidi asks where Spencer is and it's all Holly can do to not end her "I don't know" reply with a muttering of, "... and I don't care!" As Holly casually mentions her lunch date with LC amid reports of job hunting, Heidi immediately pounces on her for this wretched betrayal, even though Holly totally told her she was going to hang out with LC.

091508_22IgnoringShoulders.png
"Don't pretend to ignore my shoulder, mon cherie. It's there, and there's nothing you can do about it."

Heidi launches into the same old routine about loyalty and actually sighs that now she has to watch what she says around Holls. Ummm why? The only reason I can think of would be in case Holly would (for some reason) go tell LC all of the details of Heidi's boring plastic life. And even then, Heidi's pretty damn cocky to think that LC still gives a fuck about what she's doing. Heidi whines about how hard everything is for her.

091508_23BitingTongue.png
Literally biting her tongue.

However, Holly grinds the gears by mentioning that Lauren misses her. "I could tell," she says, just like a good meddling Jewish mother would. Back at the Roosevelt, Stephanie's in full crazy-eyes mode, chatting up a rock star with a little fetish for body modification. Sean, guitarist for the band, discusses his nipple piercings. If I had a shot to be on MTV with a band, I'd probably claim a lot of other things were pierced too.

"Ever heard of a Prince Albert?"


Stephanie leans in and confesses that she once secretly had her tongue pierced. Oooohhh, you wild lady, you! So scandalous. God, I wish this show was on HBO.

jerseygirl:

I'm pretty sure Holly lived with Lauren and Heidi during the first season. No clue why they never showed it. Also, I actually loled at Heidi's conversation with Kimberly at the end. "...how we don't have a friendship anymore because ... she didn't like my boyfriend and I ... said things out of anger that I didn't mean."

Way to be obviously guilty, Heidi.

Cable Girl:

I too am baffled as to how Lauren and Holly (even Lauren and Heidi to a lesser degree) have this long-standing friendship. My understanding is that Heidi and Lauren met at their fashion school in San Francisco. Based on the earlier “Laguna Beach” episodes, Lauren only lasted a couple of months in San Francisco before returning home to Laguna Beach. At some point Heidi moved into Lauren's family's home. Maybe a year later, at best, Lauren moved to Los Angeles with Heidi and thus begun “The Hills” saga. So at what point did Heidi, Lauren and Holly bond and have all of this history together? I am genuinely perplexed.

heygirl:

No mention of the hairlip that LC was toting everywhere? I thought maybe it was just bad lighting or a weird shadow...but damn, someone sign that girl up for a wax.

lawyergal:

I definitely think that Holly lived there. I actually rewound the beginning of her lunch with LC. LC said "when did you move back." I caught the "back" part of that which, combined with all of the "3 Muskateers" comments made me believe that Holly lived in LA for a while.

But, if she did live in LA for a while - how come she doesn't know anyone besides Heidi and LC. Oh, that's right, she just doesn't know anyone else on the cast of the show! God forbid they bring in another filler (aka Chiara) just to allow Holly to have conversations with someone!!

DP Hooker:

Yeah I was trying to figure out if Kimberley was knocked up, trying to see if she had a belly under that table but couldn't see anything conclusive. Wow, the seasons have not been kind to her.

Monamonzano:

Holy shit, your captions rule. Love this recap, DP Hooker!

leenie:

Not that I'm one to defend these chicks, I'd rather just laugh and point...however, have ya seen Kelly Cutrone? She isn't exactly setting the bar high for professional appearence in the workplace.

bonita:

During Season 1 of The Hills, Holly was Heidi and LC's third, never-seen roommate. At the time, Holly didn't want to be on TV so they never showed her.

So that's where the friendship started. Since they only shoot The Hills -- what -- 3 days a week(?), the three of them spent lots of off-camera time together...

2 Old 4 This:

Great screencaps O!!

alex_w:

Best screen caps:
"I... just wanna fly!"
and
"How come the light bulb never goes on over my head?"
Excellent stuff.

Hey Buddy:

Looks like I'm going to have to start watching me some Lifefime. I don't get Cinemax.

uglycutie:

Seriously...MTV has to be leaving major film on the editing room floor because Holly has to be having some conversations with Heidi that go something like this:

Holly: DUDE! What the f*** is up with your boyfriend?! He seriously did not just tell me not to fraternaize with Lauren? I mean, who the hell does he think he is? What the hell is going on here anyway? Does he beat you, Heidi? I'm calling mom and dad cause this isn't right. Next time he talks to me like that I'm kicking him square in the nuts. Is he on drugs? Why is he obsessed with Lauren? Is he just acting? I better be getting paid too.

Oh. By the way, why is your face frozen?
