Trouble in Paradise? Bones S08E02 Recap

Two drunk homeless men talking about the economy, when they found a burning corpse. Booth and Bones are called by the Jeffersonian, while having an awkward morning in the kitchen (and we get to see Bones gettin' all domestic!), to investigate on the burnt corpse.


At the crime scene, Booth discovers from Brennan how she and Christine were while on the run. He found out that Temperance and Christine once slept under a bridge. While investigating on the corpse, Bones quickly concluded that the case is of a body dump. She says she's been a fugitive for months and based on her experience, she concluded such. Booth disagrees and says that he's been a special agent for years now and that Bones should let him think about that, and instead just stick to the scientific investigations. (Do I smell fight?)

At the lab, we find that intern Mr. Abernathy is back. He is seen working with Dr. Saroyan, looking at the victim's remains. Unfortunately for Abernathy, who just says he's more of the "bones kind of fella", got a little queasy because of the burnt victim's "barbecued" body. They have found out that the heart has been on surgery and that they can trace the victim's identity by checking on its serial number.

Now back to Booth, he's seen at a shooting range and Sweets noticed that he's not his usual self. He also has heard of the earlier tension at the crime scene between him and Brennan and wanted to use his shrink juju on him. Booth confides to Sweets that he's still angry about the fact that Bones left him, with Christine, for three months and then when she came back, she came all different, even cooking breakfast. You see, for Booth, cooking breakfast is his thing since they started living together. Bones taking that away from him made him pissed because ever since, this was their morning routine and is upset that everything has changed since she and Christine came back from hiding. Sweets made Booth realize that all those times that Bones and Christine were out, he can never bring them back, to which Booth replied that, "You can't un-ring the bell".

Back to the victim, it turns out he's a white shoe divorce lawyer. He's a ruthless divorce lawyer for rich people. A few suspects were interrogated--from his old client who fed him RAT burger for 2 years and counting, his secretary and wife's mistress, and his clients from an ugly divorce who suddenly got back
preceding the victim's death. As it turns out, the wife stabbed him in the neck with a fountain pen, threw him down the construction's garbage chute. The couple killed him after being screwed upon seeing their  pretty huge bill and conspired to kill and dump the victim somewhere, and then burnt afterwards.



Now back to Booth and Brennan, they eventually talked at the lab and politely apologized to each other. Abernathy notices it and asked Brennan if that was their way of making it up to each other. Brennan wonders and asks him back as to why such question. Abernathy told her that when he was younger, whenever his mother and stepfather would politely apologize to each other, all hell will soon break lose. So Brennan consulted Sweets after work acknowledging her problem. When she got home, she spoke to Booth and told him that she know that something's wrong with her. She wanted to make up for it by letting him bring Christine to ride the carousel on the weekend, even though she knew that the child might not like it based on their experience with it when Brennan brought her to one while they were on hiding. Bones and Booth kiss and made up and promised each other to never again do such thing to each other.


This episode has been dedicated by the cast and crew of Bones to their dear friend, and veteran actor, Michael Clarke Duncan.



2 Broke Girls - Season 2 Premiere

Our favorite broke chicks are back for another season! (Squee!!!) That means another season of hilarity with Max and Caroline, along with Oleg, Sophie, Han and Earl!

Now, this week, Caroline visits her father in prison after learning about the Channing Auction. She brings Max along as requested by her dad. Max finally meets Martin Channing and was in awe of how Caroline's dad is awesome. Caroline tells his dad of their cupcake business but was cut by her father because she talked too much that they're almost out of time. Max was instructed by Martin Channing to accompany Caroline to the state auction to buy a cup Caroline won with Chestnut (her horse) when she was a little girl. Caroline refuses, but her dad pleads and convinces Max to bring Caroline to the state auction no matter what. After the prison talk with Caroline's father, Max convinces Caroline to come to the auction as she is convinced that the cup contains money.


Meanwhile, Oleg asks Sophie for a romantic date... after their 468th sexual encounter. Hey, don't look at me. That was Oleg counting! At first Sophie hesitates (for about 5 seconds), and then finally says yes, asking Oleg to bring her to the Channing family auction. Caroline finds out that Sophie is going to the auction and is pissed that they had an argument about this, resulting to Caroline hurling insults at Sophie's fashion statement.


At the auction, Caroline disguises herself as a brunette to avoid public humiliation in case someone recognizes her. They finally see the cup and bids, winning the cup at $200. They tried to open the cup and finds it empty. They came back to Martin in prison and asks him about it. Apparently, there really is no money. The only reason he asked them to take it is because it would remind her that no matter how hard the circumstance is, she can get over any hurdle. Caroline and Max leaves disappointed, after Caroline reminds her father of what he did that got him imprisoned, and her broke.

Episode ends with them having a total of $727 after losing $200 from the auction.

SNL Joseph Gordon-Levitt Part Deux S38E02

Joseph Gordon-Levitt returns to host SNL this week. From monologue-turned Magic Mike performance, to a suspicious husband, to some wannabe black scarf designer, aaaand wait for it--a girl being set up by her folks, JGL really killed it!

So what else is on SNL this week? Well, we all know one Saturday Night Live episode is equal to tons of funny impressions by the cast. Episode opens with their own take on Live with Kelly and Michael. Nasim Pedrad plays Kelly Ripa, while Michael Strahan. Although Kelly wasn't that spot on, Jay Pharoah, Bill Hader (as RPattz) and the jokes were just too damn funny. It's either that, or I'm pretty much clouded by the fact that Bill Hader is one of my faves. Hahaha!



Anyhoos, moving on to the show's opening, Joseph Gordon-Levitt shows his bod, along with Taran Killam, Jay Pharoah, and Bobby Moynihan in a Magic Mike number. It was hilarious! The dance moves and well, Bobby's face just made me laugh off my seat.

JGL also appears in a series of beer ads, within the show as the estranged son of a wealthy beer company owner (Jason Sudeikis) who makes a name for himself making his own brand of beer called XXX Tres Equis, with a tag line, "One equis better than my dad's beer cos he was never there for me... It's two parts Dos Equis and one none of your business". Daddy Jason Sudeikis appearing furious after learning of his son's new entrepreneurial venture and ends up with a spat about not being a good father to him. Oh and props to blonde Cecily Strong beside him, who appears as JGL's prostitute girlfriend-slash-model. The beer ad ends with Jason Sudeikis taking JGL's seat in drinking the beer, beside Cecily Strong and spitting out JGL's beer declaring that it tastes like shit.



Another funny skit was JGL as hypnotist Tommy Bergamont (Dunno if that was actually the spelling of his last name. Haha!). He tries to "hypnotize" skeptic Taran Killam, who pretends to be in a trance, duping Tommy into thinking he really was hypnotized. (Psych!) And Curtis (Killam) was freaking funny in his tidy-whities as a raptor.

Now that the elections fast approaching, they also made a tampon commercial branded G.O.B. It's a tampon created by the Republican men to address women's needs. Do I smell a hint of GOP's stand on Reproductive Health Bill on this one? Yep.



Fast Forward Weekend Update. Seth talks about Romney's tax returns, his wife, and his self-tanner. Also, he joked about VP hopeful Paul Ryan, the POTUS, and the Romney tailspin. He also had an interview with Assad's two best friends from growing up, who as far as I can remember, also knew Ghaddafi from few seasons back. LOL'd at their very hush statements about (and against) Assad and Seth's "reaction" to having new cast members. On the show, Seth also had an interview with Ann Romney (Kate McKinnon). Did you see Rick Perry after she called his name thrice? Gotta tell ya, that Beyonce Countdown done by Ann Romney is one helluva laugh! Stephen A. Smith (Pharoah) also graces The Weekend Update to talk about football and Tim Tebow.

Mumford and Sons not only performed "I Will Wait" and "Below My Feet", they also appeared in a skit as a Beatles cover band, singing "You've Got To Hide Your Love Away", with everyone else at the background. In said sketch, JGL, Jason Sudeikis, Bill Hader and Keenan Thompson are buddies at a London bar talking about the vibrator at the airport, pretending to be Michael Phelps, being Sandusky's son, loving Beatles, and shipping a nephew to Mexico.


About JGL becoming a woman in a skit. We see him as Evelyn, a girl being introduced by her pushy parents, Kate McKinnon and Fred Armisen to an uncomfortable Tim Robinson in a song and dance number. Props to JGL's yodel!


SNL returns October 6 with host Daniel Craig and Muse. September 29 will be SNL replay of Mick Jagger episode.

Jenna's Choice: Awkward Finale Recap

Team Jake or Team Matty?

This week, in Awkward's season finale, we find out Jenna's decision, choosing between Matty and Jake. After trying to fictionalize her blog as to who she chooses, and the "do overs" she thought she'd do, she finally knew which one she should end up with.

Team Matty!!!

Now you must have thought that Jenna's pick would cause backlash on the one who she won't choose. Well, yes it did. After playing spin-the-bottle, Jenna spent "7 minutes in heaven" with Matty in the closet. Jenna and Matty spends the first part of their 7 minutes by faking it and making sounds to put on a good show to the people. Jake then opens the door, telling them they don't have to do that because he's fine with her choice anyway. It might hurt that it wasn't him, but because the bromance is sooo strong between him and Matty, he won't get in the way of them getting together. Hence, the latter part of the 7 minutes turned into a real smooch fest (squee!!!). And since our dear Jake is now back in the market, with the cred he got from dating Jenna, and the competition between him and Matty, he suddenly became the school's top commodity. Our boy Jake became THE player, caught flirting with almost all the girls in school.


However, this wasn't the only choice Jenna has to make. Now, we all know that Jenna's parents have been through a rough patch lately, causing our poor little J-bird (quoting Val) sadness. Val, then thought of convincing her parents that she (Val) will bring along Jenna to Europe, along with the sophomore participants so she can unwind and have fun after all the drama. The Hamiltons said yes, and Jenna again starts in another confusing decision: to stay and be with Matty at summer camp OR to go to Europe and have the most fab summer.

Jenna thought (at first) coming to Europe, after her parents surprised her and telling her that everything's been taken care of. Surprise for them too as they walk in on Jenna and Matty in bed. Haha! Anyway, Jenna was so confused because she's afraid that things with her and Matty might go sour if she goes to Europe, but afraid of missing out on a chance of a lifetime if she doesn't go. So torn! So she enlists her mom's help, asking for an advice. She tells her a pretty sensible one, which she related to her past love life between ex Ben and Jenna's dad. Back in the day, when Lacey was with Ben, she had all the opportunities to do whatever it is she wanna do, but she couldn't. She loved to dance. But Ben doesn't. She would then rather just sit on his lap to see friends dance around having fun. Something she so wanted to do. Lacey, in the end picked Kevin, who "danced" his way to her heart. So momma's advice: go to Europe, while she still has that opportunity.


So comes her going away party where everyone's invited--yes, even Sadie Saxton. Since Jenna was (pretty) convinced that she's going, she thought she'd then manipulate Matty to go as well so she'd have both--Europe with Matty. Unfortunately, Matty can't as he'll be camp counsellor for the summer. Jenna finds out that her summer might not be too fun in Europe anyway as it turns out that Jake took the last spot to Europe and that Matty and T won't be able to come since the last spot has already been taken. BOO!!! So J is now trying to convince herself to stay since her plan to manipulate Matty to come won't be any good anymore.


T's pretty upset about not going to Europe. Not only had her school year sucked, after the bad breakup with Ricky, her summer has already bummed her out due to the non-Europe trip. Ming and Jenna comforts her and talked about the summer that could have been, if it weren't for the taken last spot. Ming also confides about her break-up with Freddie after Becca (school's Asian mafia head) had his home re-districted so she can destroy their relationship. T was left crying on Ming's car where Jake comes in suddenly, trying to hide from Lisa. He comforts Tamara and the two ended up making out in Ming's car, and Jenna sees it. Jenna was pissed at first, but then realizes that it's not her call, since she chose Matty over Jake. And so all is well between her and Tamara once again. She also gives her spot to T so Jenna stays with Matty and Tamara goes to Europe with Jake. Problem solved.

In the party, we also find out that her secret blog commenter turns out to be Clark Stevenson. Jenna confided on Clark about her Tamara-Jake dilemma, to which he advised that since she chose Matty and have to deal with the fact that Jake is none of her business anymore. He then reveals to Jenna that it was him commenting on her blog all along saying that he's glad that they can talk out in the open, as opposed to her blog.



Oh and revenge is indeed sweet! Back then Clark was outed by Sadie to the entire school. What better way to get back at her? Clark hooks up with Sadie's boyfriend and ultimate whore (hooks up with boys and girls alike), Ricky Schwartz. Score one Clark! Anyhoos, Tamara and Jenna was about to get into a closet to talk privately, when they caught Ricky and Clark making out in the closet. T was so shocked but still thought of stopping Sadie from coming into the closet to protect her. However, being Sadie, she insulted and forced Jenna and Tamara to move aside and saw with her own eyes the betrayal that is Clark and Ricky inside the closet. After days of ignoring her, Sadie finally finds out the cold truth about what's going on with Ricky and decides to get drunk and "bonds" with J and T in the process. By the time she was about to say sorry, Sadie falls asleep. Too bad, Tamara's phone was already in video mode, thinking she'd record the apology to make a memory of it. Haha!

And so Jenna decides to stay and head to summer camp with Matty for summer, giving up her spot for Tamara. However, Jenna is suspicious and feels as if she might have chose wrongly when she remembers her mom's advice. Matty seems to be her mom's Ben as the season ends with Matty refusing Jenna's invitation to dance, making her think that she may have what she wants but not sure if that's what she needs. She's seen sitting on Matty's lap and watches on as everyone else in the party are having fun.


Awkward returns next year (2013) for their third season.

Britney 2.0 Glee Recap

Last week, Glee premiered introducing new New Directions members, Unique and Marley. We also met hotties, Jake (Puck's half-brother) and Brody, as well as the new queen bee and Cheerio, Kitty. There was also the search for the "Next Rachel" aka the new soloist for the Glee club, won by Blaine. Rachel, however, has lost her top dog spot as she starts her sem at NYADA, having eaten alive by NYADA dance instructor Cassie July (Kate Hudson). Sue gave birth to her baby, Kurt moves to New York and offers Rachel to be her new roomie.

Fast forward to this episode.

It's Britney bitch... Again!

Britanny's doing sooo bad at school, she got booted off of Cheerios, after having an all-time low grade of F- at Math... Yes, I never knew that existed until now! After losing the Cheerios off her plate, she lost herself as well, causing a meltdown. To cheer her up, Mr.Schu, with the help of Emma Pillsbury, thought of ways to bring her swag back on. So yea, Britney 2.0 is ON!


Our very own Brit-brit has gone coo-coo kachoo, and almost shaved her head. Good thing Mr. Schuester came in time to stop her. Whew! However, Brittany's downward spiral continues on to the hallways of McKinley, where she was provoked by one persistent Jacob Ben Israel into being hit by an umbrella. Totally JBI's fault, though. He deserved it. "Leave Brittany alone!!!" Poor Brit's gone off the rails, talking to her now-only-friend, Kiki, while she drinks a sietenta-sized expresso... Yes, 70 ounces of caffeine! Hahaha! Who's Kiki, by the way? She is Siri's older and super smart cousin, whose really jealous about famous Siri has gotten. Oh, and she lives inside Brittany's new super cheap phone, which she found at the laundromat. Just so you know.


Anyway, back to Glee club, the whole team's getting too worried about her. Since she lost her spot at the Cheerios, they thought of giving her the solo for the pep rally to boost her confidence back up. Unfortunately, she lost her voice after shouting at inanimate objects that she asks if she can lip sync instead, to which Kiki finds a great idea. Unfortunately, everything went downhill from there, when they performed at the pep rally, with Brittany lip syncing. A furious Mr. Schuester scolded at the club while on choir room stating the possibility of them being barred from choir competitions because of the said debacle.

At NYADA, Rachel was again crushed by Cassie July by telling her she's not sexy enough for tango, excluding her at the tango lessons. She then asks Brody to help out to bring the sexy out of her in a Britney number that they showed Cassie later on. But of course, Ms. July only found it OK. Rachel thought otherwise and ended up with a spat with Cassie after calling her jealous, and all sorts of things. She brought up her train-wrecked broadway past, which was told to her by Kurt.



Meanwhile, new girl Marley's defends her lunch lady momma after the jocks at school insult her. But never fear. Our dear Jake comes to the rescue, in all his male bravado, telling them to apologize to Marley and her mom, picks a fight with them. Will Schuester stops the fight, and brings Jake to the choir room, where he finally meets his big bro, Puck--er Noah. Noah tries to talk some sense onto Jake, on how he turned his life around after becoming THE original school bad boy, and how Mr. Schu and the New Directions made him a man. Best part, he told Jake that whether he joins glee or not, they're still brothers (aaaawww!). So Jake then joins New Directions and forms an instant bond with Marley. However, things had gone sour when Kitty announces to Marley that she and Jake are now a couple (That's so Rachel-Finn-Quinn!).

Back to Brittany, she was reinstated as Cheerios head cheerleader after she made a legal point to Sue. Technically, she's still the Senior Class President considering the fact that she never graduated yet, making her STILL a senior. So she makes a come back, thanks to Sam's help, and Brit's back to her old self again--minus Santana. :'(



Now let's move on to Rachel. She and Kurt has finally moved to a place of their own. Quite cheap for $1800 a month, but hey, who's complaining right? Rachel's been hung up on Finn for quite some time now and Kurt suggests for her to enjoy her newly-found space (singleness). Kurt finally meets Brody, when he came to visit Rachel at their new place and thought of leaving her with him for a while. Brody makes a move on Rachel and tries to kiss her, but she stops him, saying that she still is in love with Finn. However, Brody's not gonna give up and continues to pursue her by watching her secretly in class, just to win her heart.

Rachel apologizes to Cassie for their previous exchange of words. She thought that maybe Cassie was picking up on her, reason why she always humiliate Rachel in class. To Cassie's defense, she is hard on everyone, explaining that they must learn to not have a melt down whenever they hear criticism from people. She says that if they can't take her criticism, there's a chance they might make it in the broadway world. Rachel has then been forgiven and has been placed on probation in class.

The episode ends with Rachel covering a painted name of Finn on their loft, suggesting Rachel is ready to move on and give Brody a chance.

The New Normal Recap: Intolerance, Baby Clothes and a Heartbeat

So last week, we found out that Goldie's pregnant with David (Justin Bartha) and Bryan's (Andrew Rannells) baby. Goldie leaves Clay for good, and moves in with David and Bryan, along with Shania, much to Grandma's disappointment and disapproval.

If you must know, David and Bryan are a gay couple who hires Goldie, played by Georgia King, as their surrogate mom. Goldie was raised in the Midwest by Jane Forrest (Ellen Barkin), her super conservative, old-fashioned 39-year-old grandmother. Yes, she's THAT young to be Shania's great-grandma! Goldie has an 9-year-old daughter named Shania (Bebe Wood) and had just left her husband Clay Clemmons (Jayson Blair), after seeing him in bed with another woman just a few minutes after leaving the house. She steals Grandma Jane's car and drives to LA with her kid.

Aaaanyway, this week, Bryan went on a shopping spree with Shania, buying baby clothes for their coming baby. David sees the clothes and tells Bryan to return ALL the baby stuff. He wanted them to buy the baby clothes in a later time, when all the test results come out, to make sure of the baby's gender, congenital anomalies, etc.


Things are doing great with Shania at school now. A boy sits with her in class and invites her to eat lunch because he likes her top (a baby skirt she bought with Bryan). Goldie learns about Shania's new friend and decides to buy her new clothes at Loehmann's. David and Bryan came along to help her out and end up having an argument with a man for being intolerant. The man says he's trying to protect his family and doesn't like gay couple flaunting their affection in public. I call BIGOT!

Nana Jane comes to Shania's school and walks in on Shania and her new friend kissing. She sees her new top and was mortified with what she's wearing. She brings the kids to a women's services office and asks for "birth control options" for Shania and her friend. The lady employee from the women's services desk calls the police.

Bryan's still upset with what happened at the store earlier. David comes over and talks to him, saying that there will always be stupid jerks in the world and they just need to ignore them. Bryan disagrees and says that he's been ignoring them his whole life, but thinks that the ignoring should stop since they're having a baby. He says that bringing a new life into a world where "idiot people are free to say and do the things they wanna say and do because we (gays) were trained to ignore them". He's scared that someday, when their kid gets bigger, he/she will be a witness to such intolerance and might get hurt being in such situation just because they ignore those people, instead of standing up for themselves. He wants to someday protect their baby from so much hate.

David came in late and upset at Goldie's check-up after punching a guy at the gym. He defends a man with down syndrome after the guy calls him a retard and for taking so long at the line, buying a smoothie. To his shock, the man with down syndrome gets mad for "fighting his battle" and calls him a fag. Goldie admits that she heard the scuffle at the department store and apologizes for not speaking up to defend them, saying that she was afraid of the man. Doctor comes in, aaaand we have a heartbeat! (Enter waterworks for Goldie, David and Bryan. Aaaaw!)


Next day, Goldie and Nana comes to Shania's school, along with Shania's friend's mom, to talk with the kids' teacher about what happened at the back classroom and their quick trip to Plan Parenthood. Turns out Nana and Shania's classmate's mom have the same point. Kids grow up so fast these days that they had "the talk" after finding out the Plan Parenthood trip. She thanks Nana Jane as she (Jane) asks the teacher to wrap their talk up. Shania's friend ends up hitting up on Jane this time. Jane talks to Goldie in private, telling her that she also need to have "the talk" with Shania soon. Goldie's defense is that Shania's just nine and that they still have a lot of time before she talks to Shania about it. Jane explains that Goldie, her mom, and Jane herself, thought of the same thing back then and she's far too young to be a great-great-grandmother, if Shania messes up and haves a kid at that age. She convinces Goldie that their young mom streak has got to end, and that Shania must break that cycle by talking to her soon. Goldie agrees and tells her that they'll have "the talk" that night.

Meanwhile at the gym, David patches things up with the guy he punched and learns that he's also gay and just got engaged with his boyfriend. However, they were both revoked of their membership and got kicked out from Equinox due to their fight, much to the delight of the intolerant guy with down syndrome, who David defended in the first place.

David comes home and admits to Bryan that he was right. That he should let go of his fears and start defending themselves from intolerance... and that they should start buying baby stuff even without the test results. He also tells him how happy he was of hearing the baby's heartbeat and that they should be celebrating that, instead of worrying about the tests.



The love fest was easily disrupted when Goldie, Shania and Jane came and returned the baby clothes to David and Bryan because it was too revealing, considering her size and how small the baby clothes were. Jane hands them a gift--a onesie that says "PLEASE HELP ME". Though I don't know if that's a gift or an insult. Haha! The couple asks them to stay for dinner. Jane and Bryan finds something in common when she asks them why didn't they just "order one of those unwanted pretty little Chinese girls for delivery, with six you get egg roll" (Jinx! Haha!). Episode ends with the five of them having Chinese food for dinner.

**The New Normal airs Tuesday (United States), created by Glee's Ryan Murphy.

Switched At Birth "The Shock of Being Seen"

In this week's episode of Switched at Birth, Bay stirs up trouble, Daphne's in love (and is up for a triangle soon), John and Angelo struggles with their new parenting setup, Regina wins the best mom award (well, not really!), and Kathryn gets drunk.

Last time, Bay aka Angry Girl, met a new friend. Remember that girl from the junk yard? You know the one who answered her piece with an octopus graffiti? Yes, her. Well, Bay sees her (Zarra) and her gang working on their new piece and she introduces herself as Bay Vasquez. She asks if she can join their group but the guys aren't convinced. Zarra gets her number and says she'd find out soon if she can be in their circle. Ahhh... Kids and their shenanigans.




Meanwhile, Daphne accidentally drops a perfect batch of cupcakes to be sent the next day to a bridal shower. Chef Jeff (Haha! Still gets me crackin til now.), walks in on a mortified Daphne and sees the ruined cupcakes. Daphne finds out that of all the things Jeff is good at, it's not making cupcakes--which is coincidentally, Daphne's forte. Jeff and Daphne pulls an overnighter to fix the cupcakes and finally gets in the chef's good side.


So last episode, we found out that Angelo Sorrento (Bay's bio dad) will be moving into the Kennishes, to Bay's favor. Since we all know how very much well-off the Kennishes are, Angelo has finally access to an awesome gym. John walks in and sees Angelo (to his disappointment) using his treadmill while watching Discovery's Shark Week. So yea, he ends up not using the gym and asks Angelo if he can clean up once he's done.





Now back in the kitchen, Daphne and Jeff talks about Daphne's being vegetarian, having a quick debate on why you should or should not be a vegetarian, and Jeff's MIT past and his love for cooking. He says being one is worse than the "deaf thing". If you may have seen the past few episodes, Jeff isn't happy with vegetarians in his kitchen. The night ended with them becoming friends, good talks and drinking coffee with animal fat, though I'm not sure how in the world that could sound appetizing.

Sam Page is back as Craig Tebbe aka the hot lawyer for the Kennishes. They're talking about the lawsuit, when suddenly John gets a call, leaving Kathryn and Craig alone. Yea, after that kiss, everything now seemed awkward between them two. Ugh! Thank gawd John comes back to tell K of his phone call! That was the school calling them to let them know how bad Bay's standing is at Buckner and that she's now under academic probation, causing J and K to put her under "Kennish house arrest". In comes Angelo and Bay includes him in the discussion. Angelo offers to teach her French (due to his French-Italian ancestry) and Bay willingly accepts rubbing it on John saying, "after all, what are dads for, right?" (you got burned, J!).


Now, as I have told you earlier, Regina suddenly earns the "Best Mom in the World" medal to boot, with the release of K's book on how their kids got switched at birth. Regina turns into a hero when she, as stated in the book, already had suspicions when Daphne was a baby, but shuts it down and thinks otherwise. And even with her suspicions, she still raised Daphne as her own, becoming a single mom, upon her separation with Angelo Sorrento. The interview, however, had gone sour for Kathryn. Unfortunately, her book made her look like a bad mom for not noticing anything when she was still a baby, and that she seemed like a stuck-up rich mom who knows nothing about her kid. Regina, felt really bad about the interview so she invited Kathryn on her night out with Melody.


Back at the casa de Kennish, Bay watches a French movie (instead of studying for the French Revolution) with Angelo, causing John some concerns. Bay then invites J into watching it with them, but John refuses and snarkily replies that he'd rather take advantage of the empty gym in his home.

So back at the resto, Regina surprises Daphne by bringing Kathryn with her on her supposed to be dinner-for-two with Melody. Daphne introduces her moms and Melody to Jeff. Melody starts flirting with Jeff at Maize, when he tries to serve them. Kathryn, on the other hand, is getting it on with the booze, still not over the interview with Marcie Grace earlier that morning.


Bay's still stuck at home with her French paper when she gets a text from Zarra to meet her. Still on Kennish house arrest so, she convinces Angelo to be her new alibi (formerly Toby's job), so she can go out and meet Zarra. They make this excuse to John that they'll go to a French cafe and make him believe that this whole immersion thing will totally help her out. John finally says yes, giving a 1030pm curfew. Bay finally shows up and finds out that it wasn't a group thing. She was told that Bay still needs to prove herself by making herself noticed by the other artists before they accept her in the group. Zarra says that if she gets noticed and they liked her work, they'll let her know soon if she's in.




After dinner, Regina drives Kathryn home, being boozed up and all. She was pretty much surprised on how very high-tech K's car is. Kathryn, still hung up on the interview, makes a reference on the culture shock and their fancy lifestyle. Apparently, Kathryn's been fed up on her being Mrs. John Kennish and wants to make a name for herself, thus making the book. However, the book made her appear like a spoiled brat--er mom instead. Regina then brings Kathryn to a hospital nursery to show how they could have not known in the first place about the switch that happened in the hospital years ago.

Angelo comes clean about her using him and French homework as an alibi to get out of the house. John teaches him about Parenting 101. He lectured him that it's not the friendship that Angelo's suppose to run after, but his kid's protection. Angelo asks what to do. John answers that, as parents, they just sit, worry and wait.




An almost sober Kathryn and Regina looks at newborns in the hospital where they gave birth. Regina comforts Kathryn and tells her that it was neither's fault that the kids got switched. On their way out, they met a nurse at the hospital, which Kathryn soon realizes that it was Angelo's contact, who turns out to be his ex. Kathryn calls her lawyer to inform him of this.


Daphne stayed in the kitchen after work for an overtime with Jeff and thanks him for being sweet to her moms. Jeff thinks that they were a gay couple. Daphne refuses to explain about her switched at birth story and offers to tell him some other time. Jeff assigns Daphne to kitchen duty--not dishwashing. Daphne got so excited that she hugged Jeff. Daphne's heart got broken when Jeff leaves, wine in tow, and leaves for the day to (gasp!) spend the night with Melody. I guess that's the end of her blabbing about the end of her dating! Emmett then sees him in the morning doing the "walk of shame". He doesn't know (yet!) that it was THE guy Daphne's confided to him that she's been crushing on.



Sunday morning at the Kennishes, when John receives a call about someone trashing his carwash by painting a graffiti on its wall. Bay comes with and offers to help clean up, not telling John it was her who did it. The episode ends with Bay covering up the artwork she made on her dad's carwash.
