Reality Eats Itself — The Fresh Meat Challenge: Episode 12 (is it episode 12? I so don’t even care)
Recap:
Dan writes, apathetically:
Derrick and Diem are boning. Well, I have no evidence of this, but it's a safe bet. The first part of the episode consists of Derrick slobbering over her in a drunken haze, raving about her smile and her body. Diem's loving it and interviews that she is trying unsuccessfully to ward off the charms of MTV's favorite sweaty, binge-drinking Pole.
Meanwhile, Tina complains to Kenny that she doesn't feel well. Kenny says he doesn't care. Tina interviews that Kenny is great and takes care of her on and off the playing field.
The next day, the kids arrive at the Challenge and see that it is a glorified breath-holding contest. There's some nonsense about a boat and diving and flags, but it basically comes down to lung capacity. It's the same old song and dance: the participants balk at the prospect of doing the challenge, TJ delivers instructions flatly, trash is talked, and so on. In the end, it's a one second difference giving Derrick/Diem the victory over Theo/Chanda.
Now, herein lies the predicament. Allegedly, Derrick has Theo's back. And Darrell's too. That would mean, from a loyalty perspective, he should be voting in Tina/Kenny. Tina/Kenny, however, suck at everything and would be easier to beat in a final competition.
In the end, there is much indecision, and Derrick totally pansies out by literally turning his back on Diem and making her make the decision. She chooses Theo/Chanda and he feels like crap.
Deliberations take place on the spot, since there are only three teams making a decision. Darrell/Aviv vote for Tina/Kenny. Tina/Kenny vote for Darrell/Aviv. Wes, who is very pleased with himself (he planned it this way all along) opts for Darrell's team.
Cristin's two cents:
LETS GO METS! LETS GO METS!
*********************
Seriously, this show is whack. I saw this one and still have nothing to say about it! Each episode should be an hour long so that someone gets booted every time. Oh, and they should staple Tina's face to a tree. That would make it a lot more fun for me.
Dan's two cents:
You know, I liked Casey a lot better when she was an innocent, stupid doormat. When did she get this entitled, arrogant attitude. It really makes me not hate Wes as much for being a bastard to her. In other news, I've become less and less invested in this show since the one-two punch departure of Coral/Evan and Shane/Linnette. Is it over yet?
The Scoreboard:
Oh, who gives a fuck.
