You would never think a show featuring “I Lovers” on VH1 would turn into one of the most crazy and backstabbing shows in a long time. On the last episode we learned that the show was going individual and thanks to that change, one of the biggest back stabs and blindsides took place. Following the leave of Rodeo, thanks to Megan, the alliances were set in their ways. Or so we thought, Megan was the only one to waiver as she began to fall more towards the remainder of the Stallionares, hoping they could protect her better then her all girl alliance.
For their first individual challenge the money lovers were going to stab each other in the back, literally. Each round everyone still in the game would throw a dagger at a dummy of another player. The first person with three daggers in their back would automatically go up for elimination while the last person remaining would be the Pay Master. The challenge went smoothly until the very end where Megan showed Pumpkin, Toastee and Brandi that she wasn’t sticking with the plan. When it came down to Real, 12 Pack and Toastee; one from each alliance; it was left to the two guys to take each other out. This gave Toastee the Pay Master role automatically, her second time for the show and one that had the ultimate power and safety.
On the way back to the house Hoopz, Real and Whiteboy were alone in a van with Megan. During that ride they welcomed her to their alliance, putting Megan in all three alliances at this point. Back at the house everyone was sucking up to Toastee and 12 Pack wanted to be sure she went home Whiteboy. He told her he’d go into the box just to make sure Whiteboy goes home. Bad idea buddy! Megan was also scheming but for the other side. Since Megan was starting to side with Whiteboy, she had to find a way to save him. She knew that Pumpkin, Brandi and Toastee wanted him gone badly and once she learned 12 Pack wanted in the elimination box her mind began to spin. Her first plan of action was to get Real, Hoopz and Whiteboy to apologize to Pumpkin and pull both her and Toastee back into the alliance. That they did and the two girls fell for it, putting Megan in the power seat once again and making her seem smarter then she looks.
In the vault it was time to put two more up for elimination along with Whiteboy. After a vote both 12 Pack and Entertainer were put into the box and were sent off with Toastee to their Power Outing. Here they had a hilarious “soul cleansing” where they got spit on and took him a turkey as a memento. Back at the house Megan used her powers of persuasion to get both Pumpkin and Brandi off the “get Whiteboy out” bandwagon. She told them that if they kept Entertainer and Whiteboy, the two alliances would still have someone to go after. Getting ride of 12 Pack would keep the target off of the four girls and keep them safe. After a little while the two girls agreed and when Toastee came back the plan was reiterated to her. It was all up to Toastee to decide though and it seemed she had a touch choice to make.
At the elimination ceremony Toastee first saved Entertainer. After bashing him a bit she gave him his check and was left with 12 Pack and Whiteboy standing in front of her. She at one point wanted to get rid of both and also gave 12 Pack her word during the power outing that he would stay. Toastee didn’t seem to care about that though as she went with the girls alliance and sent 12 Pack bouncing out of the game. It was interesting to see how quickly the target changed and how far backstabbing has gone so far. Will it continue next time? One can only hope!

Posted by REALITY REHASH on August 6, 2008 under CBS, Greatest American Dog
The Greatest American Dog took on America’s Top Model last week but this week it was all about Dancing With the Stars; or rather Dancing With the Dogs. When the group returned from the modeling showcase it was party time. In the Dog Bone suit Laurie, Travis, Brandi and Beth Joy had a small party but Brandy wasn’t feeling it. After putting PJs on Beacon she basically shut down and wouldn’t respond to anything Brandy had to say. It wasn’t that Beacon was sick but rather just overworked and tired. Laurie took the time to explain to Brandy how she can’t humanize her pet, Brandy didn’t like that too much. She lashed out at Laurie a bit, telling her it’s her dog and she can do what she wants. It’s like Beth Joy’s “moment” all over again.
Later that night Bill was upset over his good friend Ron leaving. It seems Teresa saw that and decided to pick up where Ron left off as she became very buddy buddy with Bill. The two shared a few moments together, one which would give Bill a leg up a little later. As the two talked about missing home, Teresa mentioned how she’d love Bill to win the Dog Bone suite and see his wife. Little did she know she’d be giving him the chance to do just that the next morning.
At the Dog Bone challenge each dog was giving the challenge to cross a very narrow beam. The dog to go across the beam the quickest would win the Dog Bone suite for their owner and a new prize as well. For some reason the “Dog House” choice was removed and replaced with a leg up in the following Showcase challenge. The winner would essentially receive an advantage that could give them a boost at the challenge that meant the most when it came to saying in the game. Since all but two dogs crossed the beam there is no point mentioning them all and those two were Bill’s dog Star and Teresa’s dog Leroy. Although both crossed the beam, Leroy was much faster and gave Teresa the Dog Bone suite and the advantage. But after little thought she asked if she could give it away and decided to give Bill the suite so he could see his wife and family. It was a bold move on Teresa’s part since she was in the bottom three last week but now she had something to prove.
That night Bill finally got to see his family and everyone was supportive. Not only did he get the room, he gained a friend and shared his photos and letters with Teresa as well. The next morning Brandy tried to get Beacon pumped up but there was nobody home in the mind of Beacon. She tried four times to get Beacon to sit on command and all she would do is stand there, blankly into space. It was odd since nobody really tried to help her but now they all see it as a competition. In the end Brandy got so frustrated with Beacon, and I think Beacon with her, that they both gave up and called it a day. Luckily it was time for the Showcase challenge, or maybe not lucky for them I guess.
In the next Showcase challenge it was all about dancing. Each pair would have to put on a 1 minute routine to a themed song and showcase their best dance moves: human and dog. Since Teresa gave him the leg up in the challenge, Bill got a professional choreographer to help him with his moves. When they got to pick their songs Laurie was happy with ragtime and it showed in her performance with Andrew. They moved well together and the tricks they both did were pretty great. In the end she and Andrew were even crowned the Best in Show and my view on Laurie is finally changing, she may be my new favorite. Another who did well was JD and Galaxy. He really knows how to train his dog as they both rolled in sync and he also showed off some crazy moves on his own, that being JD. I don’t think I liked his performance as much as the judges did, as it relied more so on JD then on Galaxy but hey, whatever they say must be true. They are dog experts anyway right?
With the choreographer in hand, which I think Bill needed very badly, Bill and Star pulled off a great routine. They both showed much enthusiasm and after dancing to some old time rock and roll, Star leaped off the stage and greeted the judges which they loved. Although those were the best performances, the rest had some trouble. Teresa and Leroy were great together except for one problem: Leroy’s barking. Teresa couldn’t handle it during the dance and blamed herself for it. Luckily Leroy pulled off some great moves which I think saved them from the bottom three. The only other one who was not in the bottom three, but probably should have been, was Beth Joy and Bella Starlet. Their theme was Broadway and the only dancing both did was hop around and twirl. It was rather odd at the end too where Beth Joy grabbed Bella by the hands and “dog danced” their way to the finish. Yeah just turned me off once again.
With only three remaining that brings us to the bottom three. Travis and Presley have been great so far but were knocked down a few pegs thanks to the dancing challenge. Although Travis danced around to the country music, Presley did not and that’s the reason they were in the bottom three. Next up was Laura and Preston who had a few fumbles throughout the dance. It seemed like Preston and his bow tie didn’t agree as he sat down to scratch it several times. Luckily Brandy’s lack of training with Beacon saved Laura since Beacon just couldn’t pull anything off. One judge noticed that Brandy was over training her dog and that’s what led to Beacon shutting down. It basically forced Brandy to shut down too as she almost quit earlier in the game. As the two took their last lap it showed that they were happy to go home but sad at the same time. It was another touching moment for the show and once again another episode of Dogs take over other reality TV shows. What will it be next week? Painting of course!

Posted by REALITY REHASH on July 30, 2008 under CBS, Greatest American Dog
Is it just me or did the latest Greatest American Dog seem more like Greatest American Top Model? With the theme of personality, the dogs essentially became models and it ended up in a very interesting expulsion. After last weeks leave of David and Elvis, few dogs and owners were upset. One was even relieved Elvis was gone and that was Ron. A few weeks ago his told Tillman and Elvis got into a spat so with the psycho dog gone it was all good in the Canine Academy.
During dinner Travis and Laura once again began to flirt. Brandi couldn’t help but notice and sat in during their entire conversation. It wasn’t really that interesting but the end was. When a few other players entered the kitchen Brandi was caught but she played it off well. She told Travis to keep chatting away with Laura while he asked her why he can’t talk to anyone else besides her. Someone made a comment towards the end but I sadly missed it. The next morning brought breakfast and showed two opposing ways of feeding the dogs in the house. While Beth Joy created her own vitamin filled food for Bella Starlet, Ron took the easy approach by filling up Tillman’s bowl with hearty dog food.
Good thing the dogs were practicing their eating as that was the main point of their next Dog Bone challenge. Each round the dogs would be given some type of food or item and their owner had to guess if their dog would pick up or eat that item. For the first round the producers pulled out juicy steak, taking out Laurie/Andrew and oddly enough Ron/Tillman. The second item was a stick and all but two pairs remained: JD/Galaxy and Laura/Preston. For the last temptation the dogs were asked to eat tofu. Although Galaxy normally doesn’t eat normal food, JD guessed he would eat it. Laura, on the other hand, said Preston wouldn’t eat the tofu but she was wrong. Since Preston licked the food, Galaxy and JD took home their second dog bone challenge and sent their biggest threat, Travis and Presley, to the Dog House.
Immediately following the Dog Bone challenge it was time to prepare for the Best of Show challenge. For the very first time it would be individual as the owners had to choose which word their dog would represent in a photo shoot. The teams and words were as follows: JD/Galaxy doing sneaky, Beth Joy/Bella Starlet doing mischievous, Bill/Star doing stubborn, Teresa/Leroy doing angry, Ron/Tillman doing lazy, Laurie/Andrew doing curious, Brandy/Beacon doing love, Travis/Presley doing joy and Laura/Preston doing regal.
Most of the owners had an easy time getting their ideas together but Bill and Teresa suffered the most it seems. Bill was VERY nervous about his first photo shoot with Galaxy and he found it hard to think of a pose or idea to represent stubborn. Being so close to Ron and Tillman seemed to help him though as he took a page from their playbook and tried to relax and go with the flow. On the other side was Teresa who had a hard time making her always happy day, Leroy, be angry. She had different methods to do so such as squirting him with lime water and putting a vacuum hose on him. He didn’t like that to much since he bit her, showing he does have some anger in him at least. In the end Laura gave her snarl bands which force the upper lip of the dog to stay up, making them look angry. She didn’t want to use them and used them as a last resort.
When it was time to shoot the photos Travis and Presley were up first. Since Presley is a boxer he loves to jump and that’s what Travis had him doing. When it came time to judging the one judge loved it while the other two found it rather boring as they’ve seen it so many times before. For Galaxy and sneakiness, JD pulled some props from the Dog Bone room and placed Galaxy in a bush/wilderness scene. The way Galaxy hunched his back impressed the judges so much that they named him best in show, rewarding with him with the chance to have the photo in the one magazine ran by the male judge. Pretty impressive! I’m surprised how well JD is doing, although he is a professional dog trainer so I can see why he’s doing so well.
For Laurie her idea for curious came pretty naturally for her and Andrew. Using a telescope she had Andrew peer into it, impressing all the judges and they agreed it would be hard for the type of breed Andrew is to do that. For Bella Starlet and Beth Joy the judges finally had high praises. By pulling off mischievous so well, Beth Joy rewarded Bella with all the bones she used in the photoshoot. Hope it doesn’t ruin her diet! Another one who did rather was Bill. Although he was nervous in the beginning, he pulled off a great stubborn pose by having Star stand there while he tugged on her leash. I didn’t get it at first but once it made sense it was pure greatness. Although she thought she pulled off her pose well, Laura and Preston weren’t a fan favorite of the judges. They though Preston’s simple, to the side, stance wasn’t regal enough but Laura barely squeaked through as she wasn’t in the bottom three.
Leaving only three left that means the remaining three were in the bottom three and could be sent home. Teresa pulled off the angry pose with Leroy very well in the picture, but the judges scolded her for using the snarl bands. Since she had such a hard time in the photoshoot Teresa pulled them out. She said she regretted it but it was too late. Brandi, who thought she was going home for the longest time, was loved by one judge and hated by the others. I must admit her photo of Beacon and love didn’t really show any love at all so there was no surprise she was on the bottom three. Probably the most surprising thing though was who was expelled and that was Tillman and Ron. They were a favorite of mine as they added much needed fun to the show. Ron decided to take the easy route and just let Tillman be Tillman at the lazy photoshoot. Using a black and white picture for his entry, the judges all agreed that he skimmped on the creativity part. One even called it the worst picture of a boxer ever, I’d probably have to agree.

Posted by REALITY REHASH on July 28, 2008 under I Love Money, VH1
On the last I Love Money a love triangle forced the game into more drama then its seen before. But on the latest outing the show went overboard with maneuvers and game play never seen before on a VH1 show. I’m surprised how much like Survivor and Big Brother the show is becoming and its adding a lot to it for sure. When the next morning after Heat’s removal comes, 12 Pack realizes his best friend is gone and it forces him to play the game. He decides to align with over half the other team, asking them to throw the challenge and he’ll vote out White Boy. 12 Pack knows, or thinks he knows, that he can do this since he wants to be captain for the next round. After approaching Boston, Brandi and Megan, 12 Pack’s plan gets a green light as they agree to align and agree to throw the challenge to get their teammate Whiteboy out of the house.
When the house gets the call for the challenge the captains are locked in. 12 Pack is easily chosen for the Gold Team while Chance steps up as captain for the Green Team. At a local soccer course the challenge is explained and everyone learns that Hottie’s stupidity is the basis of the challenge. On the Flavor of Love the girls were asked to cook an entire chicken for Flave’s mom. Hottie was the only one to microwave her chicken, causing a bit of a salmonella issue as it wasn’t cooked….. at all. For I Love Money that moment was fitted to a chicken capitulate mission that was split into two parts. After three teammates put together the catapult, the remaining four would have to catch five chickens using aprons. The first team to get five chickens on the dinner table would win and send one of the opposing members house.
On the Green Team the challenge throwing started early with Boston and Megan being two of the three members to build the catapult. They worked, or lack therefore, with Chance who basically put the catapult together himself. Over on the Gold Team was 12 Pack, Pumpkin and Toastee putting together the catapult. They worked well together and quickly put their slinging machine together, just as they planned it. While the Gold Team slung their chickens into the air, quickly catching three, the Green Team finally got theirs together. After quickly catching two it was obvious the plan might fail but Boston secretly screwed up a few chickens, forcing the team to go down hill from there. In the end the Gold Team just squeaked out a win. The only interesting part from the catchers was Rodeo getting slapped in the face by a flying chicken. She laughed it off with her famous cackle but since they won she didn’t seem to care too much.
Since the plan went as well…. planned most of the Green Team were happy with the loss. Only the Stallionaires were a bit angry and WhiteBoy seemed to realize the challenge was thrown. Chance and Whiteboy then went to intimidate Boston, hoping he would reveal their plan but he played sick, once again, and they left him alone after a few pranks. Once the two guys left him alone, Boston decided to celebrate with Brandi who just happened to be showering at the time. She didn’t like Boston joining her and it ended with a scream from Brandi and a laugh from Megan who was standing just outside.
While Brandi and Boston spent some not so fun time in the shower, Whiteboy took the time to talk to to Megan and wanted to see if the team threw the challenge. She says that she didn’t throw it but Whiteboy sees through her. He knows he’s on the chopping block and tried to make Megan realize that they had to keep the strong. That little chat seemed to flop Brandi’s thoughts as she agreed with him and agreed to Boston, Brandi and Destiney going up on the chopping block. The two then created a new alliance but if Brandi pulled through Whiteboy would have to do the same for her next time. Not sure exactly how that would happen since if Brandi doesn’t go into the Box next time then Whiteboy will have to put a stallionare in there. I really don’t see that happening.
The next morning Megan warns Brandi but basically told her to put herself in the box. She didn’t say much and just agreed to it but Boston didn’t. When Brandi told Boston that he may go in he didn’t take it to easily and wondered why she was going against the plan. When it was time to go into the vault, everyone voted for Boston/Brandi/Destiney to be up for elimination. Although Destiney and Brandi took the news easily, Boston didn’t. He grabbed his check in hopes of running the 15 minute time limit out and he almost pulled through with it. Following that little spat from Boston, Brandi easily put her check in while Destiney wouldn’t do it. Whiteboy grabbed at Boston, forcing the host to come in to stop any type of fight. After Destiney puts hers in more drama goes down as Boston still won’t put his in. With only 54 seconds left the check goes in the box and all hell breaks loose. Boston freaks on everyone, screaming at both Megan and Brandi. It wasn’t pretty and is hands down one of the biggest freak outs of any VH1 show.
Following the reveal of the three nominees to the Green Team Boston wanted to leave but its 12 Pack and the power outing that makes him stay. After crying for a few minutes he gave in and went to lunch. All 12 Pack wanted to do was find out who turned on who and he jumped right into things. While the girls were giving their side of the story Boston moved away from the table but he had a reason to. Brandi revealed she was the one who turned by voting for Boston and t seems pretty clear she’ll be going home. When he could choose one person to spend time with 12 Pack chose Boston. The two are friends and he trust Boston but his actions seem kind of strange to him. One thing came from the chat and that was Boston didn’t vote for WhiteBoy, which could have possibly saved him as Destiney also had three.
Back at the house 12 Pack called a team meeting to see who his team wanted to be kicked out. Although he wanted a team vote, 12 Pack revealed that he gave Destiney his word to keep her in. Pumpkin and Toastee didn’t agree with that as he wanted a team vote yet wouldn’t vote out Destiney if they wanted to. They claim that he wanted to vote out the biggest competitor out of the three and his mind flips when he realizes that. Pumpkin realizes that 12 Pack wants to keep Destiney as she’s “dating” Entertainer and flips out in her normal way. After slamming the door about 20 times Pumpkin pulls out another famous quote which I won’t mention here in hopes of keeping this as PG as possible.
At the elimination it was time for 12 Pack to choose either Brandi, Boston or Destiney to bounce. When allowed to give a few words before 12 Pack chose, Brandi opened up about throwing the challenge. Boston didn’t reveal at first that he threw the challenge but after Brandi told everyone about the plan Boston opened up to say that Megan was involved as well. The two kiddies, Brandi and Boston, continued to fight calling each other names which kind of caused 12 Pack to give Destiney her check first. With that there were two left to go: Brandi and Boston. In the end 12 Pack chose to save Brandi, forcing Boston’s check to bounce. Although the two were friends it is a game and Boston was forced to leave the mansion and the game.

Posted by REALITY REHASH on July 24, 2008 under CBS, Greatest American Dog
Following last weeks Greatest American Dog we returned to the house with drama, drama and more drama. Last week Beth Joy was told that her dog shouldn’t be wearing a dress and she also mentioned that Laurie put “top knots” on her dog. Laurie came back when the judges left and argued that top knots aren’t anything close to a dress and it set Beth Joy off so much that she just had to leave.
The next morning everyone was spending time in the pool and was scared to death when David left Elvis off of his leash. Nobody, except for Laurie, felt safe with Elvis around their dogs since last week he attacked Tillman. Luckily Laurie’s dog Andrew felt calm around Elvis and played, which he normally doesn’t do. It was interesting to see Laurie’s way of handling Andrew and hopefully it will rub off a bit on David and Elvis.
Later that day the pairs were told that the weeks theme was teamwork. They were randomly paired up and the teams were Laurie/Bill, JD/David, Teresa/Beth Joy, Travis/Brandy and Ron/Laura. What the teams had to do was untie several knots using their dog. They could only use their voices to command their dog and couldn’t touch them at all. The winning pair would win the Dog Bone challenge and share the lavish bedroom. While most of the teams worked well together, JD and David had trouble thanks to David’s dog Elvis. Pairing the two together is rather interesting since JD is a pro at training dogs while David is obviously not. Laurie and Bill seemed the complete opposite while they worked extremely well together and were as calm as could be. For Travis and Brandy things weren’t looking too good. Brandy screamed for a “hot dog” several times while Travis took a calmer route, they just couldn’t get things together.
When it came close to the end it was a close finish with Travis/Brandy and Laurie/Bill neck and neck. Travis and Brandy just squeaked it out though, putting Travis in the lavish room for another week and this time sharing it with Brandy. When it came time for the Dog House choice they briefly discussed it and chose Laurie. She asked them for a reason but they wouldn’t give her one. I for one feel they see her as a threat, not only her dog but her as well.
Laurie didn’t take going to the Dog House too well and realized they saw her as a threat. In the lavish room Brandy went kind of insane. I mean she DID win a nice room but you don’t have to be that excited about it. Travis knew people would see him as a threat because of the room and decided to just give it entirely to Brandy. It was a good move on his part and just made Brandy that more annoying.
Knowing he didn’t have many friends in the house, David took Elvis outside to play. He wanted to prove to people that it was safe for Elvis to run free and thankfully he didn’t chew Tillman’s ear of this time. The next day it wasn’t the dogs who were becoming friends but rather their human masters. Travis and Laura became close lately and both love the others dogs. It’s weird to see them getting close though since her dog is the smallest there while Travis’ dog is the largest.
For the Best In Show it was time for some obstacles. Since they won the Dog Bone challenge, Travis and Brandy were team captains and got to choose the teams. For Travis’ team it was himself, Laura, JD, Bill and Beth Joy while on Brandy’s team it was Brandy, Teresa, Rob, David and Laurie. On Brandy’s team they couldn’t really decide on what to do and it seems like Laurie took the lead. On Travis’ team they all felt that their dogs were spread out equally for the given obstacles which seemed like they would be the better of the two.
Back over on Brady’s team they decided to be more entertaining then trained. They didn’t seem to have a great grasp on how the obstacles should be spread out for each dog since well, they didn’t have a good range of dogs. Most were small which meant they had less options for some of the obstacles. Over on Travis’ team they had a premade choice with Galaxy and the frisbee’s. Bill seemed to take the lead by helping Laura and Preston in the tunnels. Of course Bella Starlet sucked at the obstacles since she isn’t anything but a “pretty face” and Beth Joy is really letting her team down.
When it came time for the Best In Show challenge the judges, for once, came outside to watch the obstacle course. After being told someone from the slowest team would be expelled, Travis’ team was up first. Galaxy failed at his specialty and grabbed a frisbee on his second try. Bella Starlet was up next and took longer then expected to jump through the hoops. Travis and Bill quickly led their dogs through their obstacles which meant it was all up to Laura and Preston. Preston had trouble earlier in the tunnel but pulled through this time by pulling through without any problems. It was then time for the final, all dog sled pull and the team worked well together with a time of 2 minutes and 52 seconds.
Brandy’s team was then next and they had much to prove. Teresa’s dog quickly caught the frisbee while Laurie’s dog, Andrew, pulled through the rings much faster then Bells Starlet. When it came to Tillman and pushing the cart he decided to bite it more then push it. Although he finished it quickly it was David and Elvis who held the team up. Although Elvis did well in practice he fell off several times when it mattered and ate up some valuable time. Brandy had little trouble leading Beacon through the tube and the team finished strong with the sled pull. It was a close race so it was hard to know who would bring home the win.
When everyone returned to the Best of Show arena it was revealed that by only a few seconds, Travis’ team pulled through with the win and safety. This means someone from Brandy’s team would be expelled. For Brandy the judges were happy that Beacon pulled through in something she was scared of. Ron had a bit of a beating by saying Tillman lacked a bit while the judges felt Laurie was giving Andrew an advantage by ripping the paper on the ring. For David and Elvis the judge felt Elvis was being smothered and hoped he would let him go on his own a little more. They also felt being on a leash for Elvis was a bad idea and Laurie mentioned that David was the only one on the leash. David spoke up in defense but Laurie let the judges know that Elvis had been biting dogs, and that’s the reason he was on a leash. One judge didn’t like to hear that but obviously it’s a game and they just don’t understand that.
After a few minutes of deliberation the judges decided that Laurie/Andrew, David/Elvis and Ron/Tillman would be the final three. The only returning to the final three was David while Ron and Laurie were newbies to the block. The judges felt that David should learn to be off of the leash while they felt that Ron doesn’t treat Tillman like a teammate. For Laurie they felt she played the game too safe by tearing the paper on the ring. After those comments the pair who was expelled ended up being David and Elvis. It was sad to see the two go as both human and dog were learning so much by being in the game.

Posted by REALITY REHASH on July 21, 2008 under I Love Money, VH1
After last weeks crazy I Love Money it was time to jump right into the next challenge. Both teams had to shift team captains and Entertainer and Boston were chosen for their teams. What they had to do was choose pairs for the challenge which was an eating challenge. Well at least they THOUGHT they were going to be eating things. What they actually had to do was kiss. Ultimately they had a “kiss off” where the last couple kissing would win. For the gold team the teams were as follows: Rodeo/Hoopz, Heather/12 Pack, Toastee/Pumpkin with Entertainer being by himself. Boston took a different approach and put the teams based on who would and wouldn’t eat the food. Heat/Destiny, Meagan/White Boy, Brandi/Real and Boston/Chance were the teams for the green team.
Following the little announcement that it would be a kiss off everyone laughed that Boston and Chance would have to be kissing. Rodeo did her famous laugh along with everyone else who just freaked out about it. The host then gave the rules and basically whoever kept their lips locked the longest won for their team. One small rule was then given, everyone HAD to be kissing when the time started which means that if Boston/Chance didn’t even start kissing the whole team would lose. Heather opened her mouth to tell Chance that he’d be on TV forever kissing Boston, she even through in a “Best Week Ever” plug. Chance didn’t like this too much but the countdown started to begin. It all came down to Chance and Boston and Chance wouldn’t go through with it, losing the entire challenge for the green team.
Chance then went off on Heat who threw a towel on him. It kind of ruined the Gold Teams win but of course its a VH1 show so there HAS to be a major fight sometime. Destiney then got into the fight for sticking up for Heat. Chance didn’t like it too much as they went off on each other for a bit. Since Heat didn’t defend Destiney back the crying then continued and Entertainer jumped in to grab his “girl”. In the end Entertainer was given the power to kick one of the green team members out. It was a quick challenge but Entertainer sure took the leadership role to his head.
When the group got back to the house Destiney told Heat how she felt that he didn’t stick up for her. Entertainer then moved in once again and told Destiney how he stood up for her when Heat didn’t. The two then spent some time in the pool and apparently they are “dating” now. Another breakup/romance then began between 12 Pack and Meagan. He told her that he’d keep her safe, along with Boston and Meagan leaned in for a kiss knowing that it would screw up the Gold Team. While Heather was floating in the pool 12 Pack decided to flirt with Meagan. Heather and Meagan then had a chat about the flirting and Heather let everyone know what he’s been doing. Well all the girls at least. When she finally confronted 12 Pack, Entertainer was sitting there and realized that Megan has to go. He felt that she was a trouble starter and if she’s in the box she’ll probably end up going.
The next morning the Green Team entered the vault for the first time to enter three teams into the lock box. The three in the box would be up for elimination and it was surely going to be a crazy one. It was then up for a vote and everyone decided that Chance, Real and White Boy should go into the box. The three guys didn’t agree with that and wanted two girls and Heat in the box. In the end nobodies name were in the box after the fifteen minutes so the Entertainer got to choose three names to go in for their team. In the end the Gold Team chose Megan, Heat and Mr. Boston.
Following the Vault meeting Entertainer was sent on a Power Outing with the three he put into the box. For their outing they went out to heat and out for some wine tasting. None of the three really talked that much but Boston tried to play a Toastee. He pretended to act sick and “threw up”. He puked the entire time they were at the eatery and Megan cracked up the entire time. It was kind of obvious that he was faking although he was blowing chunks. Megan really didn’t take the chance to talk though as she knew that Entertainer wanted to send her home. She told him that she knew he didn’t like her and he told her he’d love to send her home.
Back at the house White Boy was trying to send Heat home as he told Entertainer that Destiney still had feelings for Heat. When it came time for the elimination to occur the three stood in front of the Entertainer who had all the power. Before he chose who went Entertainer chose Boston to stay since he looked like a wreck at the power outing. Both Heat and Megan felt they were leaving but Heat was the one who was sent packing since he was dating Destiney and now he is so he had to go. Something like that, I think. Although Entertainer saved Megan he still doesn’t like her. Um maybe he doesn’t but she’s sure like able across the TV!
