First Season Zack Returns To Paradise Hotel 2
April 14, 2008 Reality No Comments
Last week on Paradise Hotel Tanya left the game, leaving Mikey without his girlfriend and the originals (OGs) in a state of weakness. That drama continued first thing tonight as everyone realized Tanya was gone. Mikey was hit the hardest as Myrna, his new roommate who was the same girl who sent Tanya home, locked him out of his own room. She said she was scared of what he might do or say, but that’s her own fault. The rest of the OGs weren’t happy with the decision of Tanya going either. All said that Myrna was now enemy number one and wanted her out first chance they got.
The next day a new arrival stepped foot into Paradise…. kind of. Zack, who was on the first season of Paradise Hotel, is the new arrival for season 2 and is also the last person entering the game. If you’ve seen the first season you know that Zack is very explosive. He was kicked out for saying he would beat up another guy on the show. Zack also fell in love on the first season. He was on the “Tanya” end of things with Amy as a new guy sent him packing as Myrna sent Tanya packing. I never expected to see anyone from the first season turn up again, besides Toni maybe, and Zack returning will surely stir up the pot.
With the game completely split down the middle it’s obvious that Zack will decide which group moves on to the “grand prize”. He seemed to gravitate more towards the originals, maybe because he was once one himself. He seemed to click well with Mike after reading Tanya’s letter. She let him know how close her and Mike was and it seems like Zack came in with perfect timing. Both he and Mike felt similar feelings on Paradise Hotel so they will obviously have a bond. The question is will that bond turn into some sort of alliance, we shall wait and see.
Since we are getting close to the end the people at Paradise let the guests out on a little trip. The guys were sent on a deep sea fishing trip while the girls got almost everything waxed. Now I can see how fishing is fun but how is waxing a reward? Maybe it’s a girl thing. On the guy’s trip they all let Zack know about the girls. Myrna was the one brought up the most and the OGs continued to work on Zack that she’s one to watch out for.
While the guests were lounging at the pool some interesting things happened. The OGs basically swarmed around Zack, not allowing any of the newbies to talk to him. This could be a plan of attack but it doesn’t seem that way. Zack could easily go and talk to the others himself but he just doesn’t seem to want to. It was then announced that the originals and newbies would split up and each have a separate dinner. I’m not sure if the show wanted Zack to finally have some time with the other group or if it was all planned out before hand. It was interesting to see Myrna put on the spot for once and told she’s very “valley girlish”. Zack told her to not put any makeup on or get dressed up for dinner but she didn’t care to listen. It then turned into a semi-fight so I assume anything between the two was quickly squashed.
After dinner everyone regathered for a good old game of “truth or dare”. That game can never lead to any good and it actually seemed to hurt the OGs a ton. Lauren was asked to pick the person she found most attractive and kiss them. Her and James have been close the entire season but she decided to pick Zack. James didn’t like this too much and retaliated by doing the same to Myrna. Lauren didn’t seem to care, which angered James more. It also set Zack up for a switch to the newbies as he realized he would never be safe with the OGs. It is smart what he’s thinking as Lauren and Krista would never select him over Mikey, James or Ryan. At the very end we saw the start of something new as Zack woke Chris up to tell him that he wants a final four deal with himself, Chris, Stephanie and TD. Should be an interesting next episode as it seems the Paradise Hotel casino is back up. If I remember correctly, that caused some drama last time around so who knows what it will bring this time.
