You know… for the way this season started out looking, it certainly has gone downhill. I mean, we began with a girl more tore up than Frenchie and a girl doing a shot from her cha cha to a few spilled beers and Doritos kisses. I’m disappointed, Bret. Even the skanky girls seem to be getting along fairly well.
This could be, in part at least, to the beginning of this episode. We’re told that Maria is very sick and is in the hospital and won’t be continuing the tour. Suddenly they’re all her best friends. Oh and in case you forgot… Maria used to be a model. Haha!! I make myself laugh.
This episode consists of The Roadie Challenge. In all fairness, Bret made it sound like they were to appear in skank wear, but when they got there, they were given boots and told they were going to tear down and set up the stage for performance. This can be dangerous and is typically done by large burly men (See Big John for reference) but no, we want these little twig girls to do it. But don’t get hurt! Here’s some boots you can wear while you do it.
We’ve got 2 teams, and they are actually going balls out trying to get this done. Taya actually falls OFF the stage and it HAD to have hurt, but she gets back onstage like a trooper to finish her job. However, she is crying (Uhhh because she’s HURTING?) and her teammate Farrah wants her to stop crying. What the French?!
Marcia aka Brazil has done this her whole life with her Dad’s band, so she knew her stuff. She was chose VIP and she’d win regardless of which team won. Oh and what was the prize? VIP status at Bret’s show that night. The other girls would be in general admission.
So, because of Taya’s injury slowing them down, the team of Ashley, Beverly, Brittanya, and Natasha win… along with randomly chosen Marcia aka Brazil for being such a kick ass participant. The VIP girls are given sexy dresses, champagne, a special bracelet from Bret, and a date the following day. The losers got the “White Trash Picnic”. They rode a bus and sat in general admission. Farrah and Taya were good 
sports about it all. Mindy looks like somebody slaughtered her dog right in front of her and does NOTHING to conceal the displeasure on her face. Beverly’s having a great time and seems to be the only one who knows his song and the words and everything. How, I do now know, but she does.
After the show, Bret needs some time out, so the girls go backstage to get plastered with the band. Have we learned NOTHING from season one!?!?!? Ashley’s got the night vision goggles out and thinks she saw Beverly kiss Bret’s drummer (he has a blue Mohawk, so he sort of stands out in a crowd).
The next day was the “winners” date. It became another fun filled day of he said she said. Beverly denies having kissed the drummer, but says if she did it was just because she was drunk and had no idea what she was doing. In the meantime, we find out that Marcia gave away the gift Bret had JUST given the girls. God love her, I think she had good intentions. Apparently there was a group of people there just totally into his show, crying and singing along, and when she gave them the bracelet, it really touched them. Bret can appreciate that, but at the same time, he’d JUST given that to HER as a special gift and would liked for her to have kept it at least a day or two. Shit.
Elimination comes and it’s anybody’s guess. Only one girl has to leave since Maria (did you know she used to model?) had to go home for medical reasons. Ashley gets the first VIP badge and hops happily on the bus, followed by Natasha, who Bret says he has a very deep connection with. Really? I’ve not noticed. Deep voice, yes. Deep connection, not so much. Farrah (What the French?) and then Mormons Gone Wild, Kelsey (who I think is the cutest of them all and still can’t figure out why she’s there). Next up is Taya and Brittanya (those belly piercings are dangerous. Don’t be fooled!) This leaves the obvious three of Beverly (drummer kisser), Marcia (bracelet giver awayer and tequila drinker) and Mindy (the invisible miserable woman).
Of course Mindy stays (will you PLEASE give her something besides Doritos and booze? Thank you. Then what to do what to do? Beverly can be forgiven for maybe drunkenly kissing the drummer, but he can’t get over Marcia’s partying ways.
Adios Two Kiss Marcia! We’ll miss you!
Next week: One of the girls supposedly has a FIANCE! Ooh!
