And damn Zach, that was hard to watch and I'm not even gay

People are definitely gonna flip out on that one next week. The crazy thing is, Andrew from DC have made gay jokes, racist jokes, and sexist jokes and got no type of negative feedback from his roommates whatsoever. Zach can't make any type of "gay" reference without being offensive lol

Are you kidding me?????! This episode was so deep. Seeing some random non-castmember no one cares about for the entire episode, and then seeing two salesmen that also aren't castmembers, and to top it all off, we saw something we've never ever seen before - Frank having an outburst over something minuscule. This episode was a masterpiece.

Agreed. Probably in the top 10 episodes, all time. I'm keeping it on my DVR to get a few more viewings in this week. Very deep and ultimately fulfilling. If we have more perfectly crafted pieces of theater as moving as this last hour in the episodes to come, this season will surely set ratings records at MTV.

Note to self: Going to gay bar=Easier time picking up chicks.

The only way this episode could have possibly been improved is if they focused on the exciting enigma known as Ashley Kelsey.

Wow, for some super genius, Alex really is just as emotional as a normal/dropout chick She's STILL on this hand holding kick??! I knew there was a reason I didn't like here at first sight, I was hoping she'd give me the Naomi effect, but no dice

I was holding out hope for the same thing. That is why I am watching again, as I suspect there might be Ashley Easter eggs if I look closely enough (e.g. maybe her foot was in a shot or the back of her head, etc.) It would totally make my day if I find one, although I know the odds are slim. :(

I'm watching the 2nd showing of this episode since I was doing chem :/ booooo At first glance, Byron strikes me as an uber ****. I somewhat understand where shes coming from when she says all she wanted to do is hold his hand..I teared up a little when they were in the car, Byron seemed so nonchalant about the whole thing while shes on the verge of crying . Po' child..

Hahaha, Ashley Easter eggs!

Ashley was actually that person in that one shot during Vegas where no one could figure out who was standing next to Nany.

At first I was like awww =( And then i was like :lol:

Big head Byron probably realized how clingy he was being over the phone,so once he got into the house seeing the cameras and such he played the nonchalant game.Alex is used to him being super attentive,so she is acting super annoying.Please say that's the end of showing those two,because dear god we already have an upcoming episode to the cesspools of boring known as Zach and Ashley. Don't even get me started on Frank.....

I got this "screen cap" from the episode (I swear!) and it is clearly Ashely! (Or Michael Jackson.)

I kind of liked this episode, actually. I found Nate's story pretty touching. He's growing on me. I'm also gaining respect for Frank. He's taking the steps to get the therapy he needs, not a lot of people make it that far on their own. He had his little hair freak-out, sure, but then he brought that up in therapy next time. He relaxed on the booze at Priscilla's as well, and was there for Nate when he needed it. It's hard to criticize someone who is trying. I still love Alex thus far, but her and Byron were almost uncomfortable to watch. I'm glad she's not dating any of the roommates, because her little relationship segment was a bit.. too much. Ashley seems nice and all, but wallpaper is an understatement. This season really could have benefited from that 8th cast mate, because with her there's practically six roommates, and one is delivering the drama.

Some things did make me laugh this episode: 1.Nate in the club,guy comes up to him and asks him if he wants a drink,Nate:"I'm not gay".That guys reaction was priceless,like um heffa please,lmao. 2.When they were driving to Priscella's house and they all turned around to watch Alex and Byron in their car,and Frank just randomly said "Why is Alex talking so much?" IDK that just made me chuckle.

Preview for next week: Frank saying, "If I was Sam I don't know how I'd handle this situation." Well, everyone else does. You'd throw things and yell. Not that I condone what Zach says to Sam - I don't like Zach either. Frank just makes me shake my head.

I agreed with you about Byron and then...there was the end of your post. What are you smoking??? Ashley is clearly the mascot of this show, how can you seriously ever call her a bore?? Every time she shows up on camera, I go "Frank who??" This show needs more Ashley, she's like a better version of Coral. Can we please have Ashley Vision, BMP? Please?

In the promo for the next episode did Zach really say "I'm going to beat the gay out of you..."

It's hard to know what she's really like, considering she has like 3 minutes of air time each episode.

Those are the best 3 minutes of the show!!!! She is truly a unique addition by BMP. This show would crumble without Ashley.

Haha, I do like her a lot. She is very much enjoyable to look at.

Yep, it looked like he meant it as a joke though. But of course everyone's gonna turn this into a "It Gets Better" campaign.

the episode wasnt that bad : my ranking from favorite to less favorite 1.Sam 2.Priscilla 3.Nate 4.alexandra 5.zach 6.ashley a.k.a "the ghost" 7.frank

The first few minutes, when Frank was with the therapist, was just.. eh. They definitely spent too much time just on the guy talking, and I found myself zoning in and out. I liked Nate in the first episode, and I'm finding myself liking him more and more (which is a big difference from what I expected when I first saw his pictures on here) I have to admit though, that even though it was a sad moment when he was crying, I got a giggle out of those floaties :) Alex proved that even the seemingly most mature person around can have their insecure moments. I know where she's coming from and I can't say I wouldn't have handled it any differently... But it was still annoying, hearing it from someone else, lol. Looking forward to next week, though. I can't wait to see how the rest of the house feels about Zach's comment.

I'm guessing that "Making moves and explode" is like Nate's catchphrase.

Weird episode with weird people. They are a strange lot, but not that interesting strange to me. Sam reminds me of Joey from Cancun. I hope I was hearing it wrong when Nate was crying about not getting to see great uncles grow up--under what circumstances would that have ever been possible. Had to laugh when Alex was talking about how all she ever wants is the simple courtesies--I read that as, "All I want is for me to be the center of the universe and you to bow down before me at all times." I like Frank's life coach, but Frank is still a psycho to me.

This ^ I definitely do not condone bullying or hating on people for their sexuality, but Zach is obviously kidding. I could see why this would make Sam think back to other people saying stuff like that to her, but it should only be a trigger. I wouldn't bunch Zach in with those people. Then again, the preview may not show it all.

Totally uninterested by Nate and his story. If your going to make up a storyline for yourself to play out over the season, make it a good one.

I think it's rather low for someone to claim he's making this up. And this is much better than any other storyline this season has offered us at this point.

It would be so awesome if they cast a season with all or mostly pathological liars.

What makes you say that he's making it up?
