Last week on A SHOT AT LOVE II WITH TILA TEQUILA, we saw some serious stuff go down. After seeing everyone's favorite dying-for-acceptance case/George leave, Jay's love for his master, the almighty floor installer from Detroit, Chad, was proven mutual as Chad fought to defend his lap dog. It all began with Jay interrupting a conversation between Bobo and Sirbrina. After Jay's irritating personality became too much to bear, the high school football coach/pedafile told him to "pull his head out of Chad's ass." Chad, always one to step up and protect his boyfriend, hurled a can of pbr/milwaukee's beast (one can only assume these would be the contestants favorite brands) at Bobo's head, and had to be held back by the other houseguests. Bo, coming around to talk shit to chad but not actually throw a punch got the surprise of his life. The show ended on a freezeframe of Chad inches away from headbutting Bobo, leaving us all asking the same question, "I wonder what happens next?"
Well THAT makes sense.
Chad basically headbutts Bo, then pulls him in by his shirt to knock him in his jaw. Jay immediately gets the most upset of anyone, including Bo. He knows his cuddlebunny Chad is going home, and his heart is breaking into a million pieces. Bo, meanwhile, is bleeding like crazy and has a cracked jaw, at least. The rest of the house is in complete shock, and Brittany casually tells Chad that he's going home. Detroit has the highest violent crime rate in the country. But, for that to happen Chad, it needs you. Don't ever leave it again.
Those Motown floors aren't going to install themselves.
Everyone is paying attention to Bo and he is spitting out serious blood. He has a split in the middle of his gum, and needs to be taken to the hospital immediately. Glitter of course, can't help but begin to cry about it even if it has nothing to do with her. considering she's the most annoying person left in the house (and that's saying a lot), I don't know how she continues to keep making it in this game.
"My teeth are split up the middle right now, and the thing that's annoying me most is Glitter's crying."
They wake up the next day and Tila is somehow clueless to everything that happened the night before, including the ambulance coming to the house and multiple EMTs in the building. She must be a deep sleeper. Upon hearing the news, Tila is shocked and begins crying. Jay tells her that he tried to stop the whole thing and control Chad because he didn't want to see him leave, but Brittany, speaking for everyone, points out that "this is totally Jay's fault. He instigated it. He started it."
"I didn't want this to happen. Do you think I wanted my big bear to leave me?"
The next day, Tila gets on the phone with him and is making her best efforts to fake concern. The rest of the house speaks to him on speaker and have found out that he's gotten stitches already and will get more after surgery. Afterwards, Scotty and glitter hang out in the bedroom, and these folks have the cleaning habits of my alcoholic aunt - lots of half empty beercans everywhere, and blouses strewn all over the floor. Tila, fed up with the sty, decides she's got a case of cabin fever and that everyone should leave the house.
If you weren't such slobs, it wouldn't feel so stuffy in there.
She's taking them all out to her favorite restaurant, but tells them to go ahead of her. She said she had some thinking to do about regrets, and the cheesy guitar solo rock music is cued. After talking in the car about how she feels bad that she made some bad choices and picked Chad, she pulls up to a corner in West Hollywood, and George is there waiting for her, dumb grin shining, and matching is sweetly stupid personality.
"Sometimes, when you're out hustling or turning tricks, wonderful things can happen."

always wondered WHAT it was about Lisa that bugged me. It's those waxed arched eye brows of hers.
apparently Jay gets hit on A LOT on Christopher Street if he needs to wear t-shirts that say "i heart girls."
the fluffer comment was awesome.

Jay should have been sent home. Chad should have been taken away in handcuffs for a long "time out".
Bo stood there and took the shot because he didn't expect Chad to actually hit him. He quite reasonably thought Chad was just bluffing. Usually a guy acting like that is, especially when he knows that A) he is on camera and 2) he'll be kicked off the show if he touches anyone. Bo was just unlucky enough to get the one guy in a hundred who's out of control enough to go through with it.
Chad was the one "emasculated" by that incident - not Bo. (Not surprisingly, Jay earns first runner-up.)
Thanks for the recap!

I suppose it should be pointed out that Bo took a head butt and two solid punches to the face and didn't go down...and didn't get suckered into brawling back. And even though his jaw was split in two (ouch), he remained pretty calm.
Doesn't make him less of a weed. But at least he's not a wuss.
Jersey Gay ('I heart girls' indeed) should have been booted out too...you have to wonder why they're keeping him around. Seems absolutely impossible Tila (or any sane woman) would go for him.
Although the same could be said for George (I keep hearing the theme song for Midnight Cowboy when he comes onscreen).
I still think Scotty is the ringer, they're editing him out of the early episodes to maintain the suspense. He's really the only likely candidate (mostly because I don't believe for one second that Tila really is bisexual...that's just marketing for the myspace crowd).
That said, you have to wonder how Tila can hope to find 'love' among this group of reality slugs.

This season blows. It's obvious that Tila's faking it -moreso than the previous season- and everyone in the house looks like they're half-way into it. I'm not buying it -and I'll admit to watching every episode of the first season. How can something so crappy let you down so much? Moreover, how can you look at yourself in the mirror after it happens?

Thanks for reading this week, guys. Jay is clearly douchebag of the week this week and I agree, it's about time he goes home. In fact, I suggest someone start one of those online petitions to the government, making them prevent all media companies from allowing that idiot on television anymore.
And yes, props to Bo for taking the punch. As I said before had it been George, he would've teared up like a failed Mr. Olympia contestant. And I would've laughed.
Oh well. Check in early next week for the next recap. Thanks again for reading and talk soon!
