Charm School Kickback LIVE - Episode 7 Recap

[00:00:20] Hey, what's up fam and welcome back again to Charm School Kickback live here on Recap Kickback. That's right. It is Sunday School. It's me, your host Chappelle, and we are here to talk about the next iteration of the Flavor of Love Cinematic Universe. Flavor of Love Girls Charm School. VH1 brought us this show years ago and we are following up on that journey with our person who is watching it for the very first time. Chantel, it's Moe's birthday. Welcome back.

[00:00:47] Moe's birthday. Happy birthday. Moe happy to be here as always. My favorite part of Sunday. Even in a little bit of a hungover state, I am happy to be here. This is the only Sunday School that I want to be at on I love Sunday. Yeah, no, this makes sense. So here Chantel and I are both hungover on Sunday School. So if you were tuned in on time, you'd see that we might be a little late.

[00:01:13] But neither one of us was in a rush because we've been dragging ass because, you know, maybe partied a little bit last night. I don't know what Chantel was doing and she don't know what I was doing, but we both made it here to Sunday School. And that's all that matters. Yay! To celebrate Moe's birthday. We are. We have to celebrate Moe's birthday. And we, of course, have to celebrate here live on the chat with the chat for everybody who's watching along on YouTube. YouTube.com slash at Recap Kickback. We'll show you our live, our podcast live, I mean.

[00:01:42] And you can also join on Twitch, twitch.tv slash Chappelle's underscore show. We'll give you that. But hopefully you are watching us, you know, in the future as well. Hopefully this podcast is evergreen and people can go through and rewatch Charm School forever because we are also including the links to the episodes in the show notes. And so Mel Hooker recently reached out to me and said there was an issue with some of the links that I was posting. So we're trying to get that worked out. But I think the show notes for this episode should be fine.

[00:02:11] Again, charges in my head, not my heart, but also let me know if you see anything a little wonky so I can go in and fix that so we can watch along with everybody in the audience watching this for either the first time or joining us for our rewatch. So Chantel, it is Sunday School and I just have to come in before we even get started. How did you feel about this episode?

[00:02:33] I was a bit sad of this episode because it's really getting to the point that I don't want anybody to leave. Yeah, like I mean kind of the whole season has been like that, but it's kind of getting down to the wire and I'm just getting scared. But I was hoping that Monique wasn't lying and that New York is joining Sunday School. Like that would be really funny.

[00:03:01] But yeah, it was great to see New York back. Yeah, it just, yeah, it was a great episode, but it was getting sad. Yes, yes, we do get the return of Tiffany New York Pollard in this episode. Last episode, I teased that we were going to have a celebrity guest and, you know, Chantel called it. We knew that New York was going to have a crossover moment in this season. And so here we are. We land on it. But I didn't realize how much this episode means to me. It's so good.

[00:03:31] It's such a good episode of TV. It really is. There's drama. There's fighting. I didn't cry, though. Yeah, no, no. Last episode, I think, was The Tear Jerker. This one was pure drama and mess. And that's why we watch these types of shows. We got the return of New York, which is always a big deal. She's enhanced. Yeah, she. Well, I think we kind of glossed over that at the finale of I Love New York.

[00:03:59] But there's a moment where when she comes out, Tango's like, you look good. And she's like, yeah, I've made some changes. You know, she was alluding to that then. And yeah, we will get Sapphira's commentary on New York's new look as we talk about this episode. So for me, this episode provides a lot of iconic gifs and reaction moments. I don't know if you caught any of the big ones, but I'll be happy to highlight them as we come across them. Please highlight them for me.

[00:04:28] Okay, so let's jump right in. Last episode, there was this big controversy between everybody in the house because someone took Lailene's photos and put them under Hottie's bed. This led to Hottie and Dara being eliminated from the competition. Two for one, really. And so, you know, it seems like whoever got away, whoever did that would have gotten away with it.

[00:04:54] But people seemingly don't understand, don't really want to ascribe that to like Hottie. I think it just doesn't feel like a Hottie-ism. She is a thief. But she's been very clear. Yeah, but she's been very clear that she at least will own up to the things that she's done. I think she likes to kind of revel in her villainy. And so, yeah, yeah, exactly. And her villainy, she likes to kind of live in the moment of the drama. She wants you to know. Exactly.

[00:05:22] So the question is, if it wasn't Hottie, then who was it? And we start this episode off really sitting with Larissa and Shay as Larissa is reveling in her moment, right? She's got away with it. She got away with Hottie and Dara, who she didn't love anyway. And, you know, now we've moved on. You know, it basically saved them from last week from elimination. So I thought this is going to be the witch hunt episode. It very much was. It's definitely the witch hunt episode.

[00:05:51] What I didn't understand, though, is why Larissa just will not fess up. She just won't do it. But, and like, I guess like I've never really done something like that. So I don't understand. But like, would you, would you fess up eventually? No. I think, okay, so the line becomes when this leaves being a Chappelle problem and becomes somebody else's problem.

[00:06:21] Like, if it's like, I am the only person that will go down for this. It is mine completely to hold. I am doing this and I made the mistake, whatever. I'll take it to the grave. I don't care. But if it's now like, well, well, let's blame Chantel for this. I couldn't do that. I'm not going to allow you to go down for something. Yeah. Something that I've done. Comma. But if, if there ain't no smoke on anybody, I'm like, what are you talking about? It's just hotties. You want to go in anyway. Let's move on. That's how I was looking at it. Would you steal the photo?

[00:06:51] What I've done, what she did. No, I don't think I'm, you know me. I don't think I'm that cutthroat of a player in any, in any sense of the word. What about you? I mean, I know you're a gamer, but I don't know if you would have. I don't know if I wouldn't have thought to do it. It would have crossed your mind. I don't think so. What if it's your biggest op? Like, I don't think hottie is anybody's favorite. Like she obviously one of my favorite characters, but I don't know if she was anybody's favorite person in the house. You know, maybe I wouldn't do something.

[00:07:18] I don't know if I'd steal a photo and like try to blame it on somebody else. I don't know if I'd do that, but I may think of something to sabotage maybe a little bit. Yeah. Mr. Robot says justice for hottie. Let's get a season one of hottie wants a husband on the book. Hottie wants a husband. Ring the bell. You know what I'm saying? That sounds good. I'd watch. It does. I would watch hottie wants a hubby. Hottie wants a hubby. Hottie wants a hubby. Blink, blink.

[00:07:47] You know, so Brooke doesn't care about hottie at all, but she wants to know who did this. And so because it just doesn't fit the pattern that we know that hottie's crimes fit. So we will see the witch hunt as it unfolds in this episode. The eighth commandment that they're talking about is thou shalt represent. And Sapphira thinks they might have to do a rap battle. But I think this is way better.

[00:08:15] The fact that these girls are getting PR training. I think that that is invaluable to reality TV personalities, especially back then in 2007. People did not realize what it meant that you were going to go on TV. They would go on TV thinking, oh, I'm on a dating show. And then they realize that, oh, it's bigger than a dating show. I'm now a character. And then they realize that now I'm not a character. I'm a brand. You know, Pumpkin, the moment she spits on New York, she's no longer Pumpkin, the character. She's Pumpkin, the brand.

[00:08:43] Because now people, you know, different shows are going to be reaching out to Pumpkin to do the things that they know that she can do based on what they saw on TV. And then she has a market herself around that. So all that to say they didn't have any PR training or media training for these people. And I'd argue that they probably need it now. Do you think that Pumpkin got any brand deals, like mouthwash or something? I don't think she got any brand deals, but she probably was getting zero phone calls for the TV shows that she was getting at first.

[00:09:12] And now at least she's getting called for appearances. She's probably got hosting gigs and stuff like that. Showing up at Mars. That was very popular back then. It really was, right? But if you ever want to get out of that scene and become like a public speaker or, you know, I think she talked about how she was a cheerleading coach. Lady, you're going to have to get your life back together based on the actions that you have on television. And some PR training would be nice. I just feel like all reality stars in the early days or whatever, or the ones who just, you know, they just don't understand what's going on. Those people need to have this kind of conversation, right?

[00:09:42] Don't get on Twitter. Don't read the Reddit threads. You know, don't argue with the fans. You know, just certain things that you pick up on that would just make your life easier. I totally agree. But also, I think we will then lose like the reality, like the roughness, like the who they actually are. Like, you know, like what we love about these old shows is the fact that everybody's uncentered. They don't realize that they're going to be famous. They're going to become a brand.

[00:10:08] So, like we get to see all their bumps and warts and how they're really going to act in certain situations. And so, if you get media training too early, I think it then kind of dulls down like that shine. So, it's a very tight spot. Right, right, right. Because for television purposes, yes, please be you, right? Come out and curse these people out. We wouldn't have charm school if these people had PR training, right?

[00:10:34] But once they get, like once we get some work out of them, if it looks like they're struggling, I think somebody needs to pull them to the side and hold their hands. Because they end up bringing in E.T.'s Kevin Frazier to talk to them about a press junket. They will be doing a celebrity interview about charm school promoting the show. And we have to go back and review the girls' resumes. You know, what got them here in the first place.

[00:11:01] And so, we get the greatest hits, Buck Wilde throwing a shoe. I think Buck Wilde throwing a shoe is iconic, but it's the quote after that. Who the fuck you gonna do? What the fuck you gonna do, bitch? Step to this, is her iconic line. She has some good lines, like in general. Like, I don't know where she comes up with them. Like, who does she hang out with? I need to know who her friend group is in real life, you know?

[00:11:27] Yeah, well, it was Shay, but I don't know if that's gonna survive after the actions of this episode. Yeah, Shay must piss this episode. Like, piss. Yeah. Yeah, this was a tough one. This was a tough one. The girls were fighting. Layleen, we get her talking about a guy throwing a bottle at her face. And we get boots at the reunion, of course, you know, chasing New York down. I think we get Safari.

[00:11:54] If you hit me with something, it's going down. And then, you know, the mother of them all, pumpkins spitting on New York. So, immediately, they're taking through the rules. Rule number one, stay on message and sell the show. So, Chantel, have you ever seen a situation where somebody is being interviewed and they just can't stay on message? They just want to tell their own story? I mean, I've definitely seen it happen. I can't think of a certain situation off the top of my head.

[00:12:25] But people aren't usually good at being interviewed. And for the reasons that he said, like, staying on the point. That's, like, the point. Sometimes even, like, chatting, not with you, but some other people, like, about a show. Sometimes they go off on a little bit of tangents. And then we have to bring it back to what we're actually talking about. So, yeah, I think it happens all the time. But, yeah, people just need to be more aware, I guess, to stay on task.

[00:12:56] Would you struggle with any of these rules? We had stay on the message. Don't take the bait. Damage control. Do not lose your cool. I think those are the big four. Well, if someone was, like, specifically trying to make me mess up, I don't know. I might. You know what I mean? I might take the bait. Because, like, you're just having a conversation and you want to be honest and you want to kind of, like, talk from your experience. And so I might take the bait.

[00:13:26] I think that's the one that you could probably get me with, too. It's because I'm a chatty guy. I'm a yapper. And so if we vibe in and you're asking me the right questions. I love a gossip. And, you know, we love some mess as well. So I'm pretty sure there are people in the chat who have experienced this firsthand with me, right? If you've got me alone in a bar, I'm like, all right. Now between you and me. Don't tell anybody. Don't tell anybody.

[00:13:54] And I'm like, days later, I'm like, damn, I probably shouldn't have done that. But, you know, it's part of our charm. It is. It is. We don't need charm school, though. We got it. I think we can handle ourselves without it. So, yeah, we see the girls kind of, like, going through these assignments. And, you know, we've talked about how some of them have taken the bait in the past.

[00:14:21] We get some news that Larissa actually spoiled the season, the winner of Flavor of Love Season 2 in an interview. And Larissa decides, no, no, I didn't. I actually did not do that. I know you see the transcript, but that's not what happened. That is not what happened at all. It didn't happen. That wasn't me. Yeah, I don't see, like, how would you handle that situation? I don't, like, well, she's obviously denied, denied, denied, denied.

[00:14:48] That's always going to be the way that she handles everything that she's being blamed for. But, like, if I, I'd probably be like, oh, man, like, I didn't need to say it. It just came out of my mouth. I just forgot that it hadn't aired yet. I was just being natural. And I'm like, I'm so sorry that, like, I made that mistake, I guess. But is that right? Yeah, I mean, I think you first have to own it, right? The main takeaway here is that she just was like, I'm just going to deny it, even though they have the transcript.

[00:15:16] It's like she's looking at a photo of herself like, I don't know who that is. And so first things first, you'd be like, yeah, I guess I did say that. Didn't mean to. But we're talking about charm school, you know? And that, and you know what I won't spoil? The winner of charm school. You know? Tune in to see who won that. You know? I think you got to redirect. Yeah, always bring it back to what, you know, just, yeah, deflect. Yes, exactly. They talk about damage control and how you need to apologize. Buck Wilde gets asked about drinking.

[00:15:46] And by the end of the questioning with Kevin, he's like, so you agree, you have an alcohol problem. And we find out that Buck Wilde don't even drink like that. Yeah, I mean, I don't know if, like, I think I would maybe get caught with being like, I might have had a couple glasses of wine. You know, I might say that. But, like, if somebody were to introduce that I had an alcohol problem in front of that, I'd be like, no. No. Me? What?

[00:16:15] At charm school, you're not allowed to drink? Right. I wouldn't drink at charm school. Like, alcohol problem aside, you know? Like, maybe I did. I'm not, I'm no toasty. I'm joking. Because you definitely shouldn't throw other people under the bus. They call out Pumpkin about spitting on New York and she starts engaging. And you don't ever want to get in a position where you just can't admit that what you said or did. And that's a mistake. And so, Safari had two takeaways from this.

[00:16:44] She said, if you don't have the answer, deflect it. And if you do have the answer, lie about it. I guess. Right? Well, I mean, not to spoil it, but Safari's going to do really well in the challenge. But she actually did really, really well. Like, you know, like, I can't. It was a little bit overboard with, like, high fives and, like, let's go. Like, but she definitely did really well. So, you know what?

[00:17:12] She, what she learned was valuable to her. Yeah. The women are all sitting around thinking about who this can be. Larissa thinks it could be Wendy Williams because she knows it's going to be a hard interview. They wonder if it's Flay. But they're like, nah. Yeah, I think Wendy Williams would have been good. I don't know at this point in her career what she was actually like, you know, where she was. I'm sure she was already an established journalist. But I don't know if she had the Wendy Williams show. Right, exactly. So she probably could have done a radio show. I don't think she had a talk show yet.

[00:17:40] But they agree that it's probably going to be a tough interview. And we find out because Pumpkin is up first. And she is nervous about who this celebrity interviewer is going to be. And it is no one other than Tiffany New York Pollard. This is the meeting we've all been mating for. She looks scared. Yeah. Well, beforehand, she looked really, really scared. And when New York came in, I was like, oh, Pumpkin is nervous.

[00:18:11] Yeah. Yeah. I was, I thought this was great. First of all, leading off with Pumpkin is actually crazy, right? Because you would think that's the one that you're building to. We found out there's another person with a little bit more beef and smoke toward New York than Pumpkin. But how did you think Pumpkin handled the exercise? Well, decently well. Like, obviously, she didn't, she kind of gave up some information.

[00:18:36] But, like, it would be challenging if somebody that you spat on on national TV and it became, like, a huge talking point. Like, the spit that was heard from around the world, as we like to call it. And then be face to face with this person where you have to, like, put on a smile and deflect and not react to all these things. Like, you know, I think she did a decent job. Yeah. For the service guests.

[00:19:04] No, this is, I mean, I'm proud of her and New York. You know, like, the quiet part here is New York was the original victim of Pumpkin. It's not the other way around. So the fact that Pumpkin can sit there and, you know, kind of take whatever verbal sparring she's having with New York without getting out of control. And New York to do the same. Because if New York reached over and just slapped the hell out of Pumpkin, I think it's still warranted because you spat on her. You know what I'm saying? So I was kind of proud of both of them in this moment, despite Pumpkin faltering a little bit, you know?

[00:19:34] Yeah, I was surprised that New York didn't hit her. But they probably said to her, like, hey, you're going to be seeing some people that you may have some beef with. Are you going to be able to keep your hands to yourself? Like, do you think they had to coach her? I'm sure they did. I'm sure they, like, told Pumpkin, like, hey, no shenanigans. Don't come in here with that nonsense. You know, they don't play that here. You're definitely not getting away. You're not going to win the money.

[00:20:01] And, you know, Pumpkin, from very early on, we have identified that she's here to win the money. She's definitely here to win the money. I don't think she's going to win. I don't feel it. But she's definitely here to win. How much do you think that New York got paid for this little guest starring role? I don't know. Because, I mean, it is a good way of promoting herself, right? So I'm sure she got some money. But this is still very early in New York stardom. If anything, she's probably under contract with VH1 where she don't really have much of a choice but to do this kind of stuff either. They just gave her a TV show.

[00:20:30] So I really don't even know if she got a bonus book or if they just said, like, in your TV show contract, you're kind of required to do other VH1, you know, appearances, blah, blah, blah. And I don't think at this point in her career she's not. She's also like, you know, she probably knows that she's just building a brand here as well. I wonder if she has, like, a three-picture deal or something like that. Something like that, probably. But it gives us more on the horizon is kind of what I'm alluding to.

[00:20:58] Because, like, she's had, I don't know, I want to see more. I want to know more. Yeah. We need more New York. So, yeah, Pumpkin throws Larissa under the bus. I believe that's her biggest mistake in this challenge. Because they're asking, basically, who do you have issues with? And she's like, oh, you know, me and Larissa aren't doing great. And so she kind of forgets the assignment there. Sapphira is up next. And Sapphira, she just knocks things out of the park. Now, Chantel, why do you think Safiree was so good at this? Because I do have a theory.

[00:21:29] Is your theory that she, like, smoked a joint? No, no. I don't think so. No. You know, they frown upon drug use on this show. You know, I think it's because Safiree doesn't actually know New York. Like, everybody else has come into an altercation with New York. She has called them every name under the sun, every name in the books. Safiree and New York were never on the same TV show. They only met at the reunion. That actually makes a lot of sense.

[00:21:58] So there's no bad blood. There's no, like, maybe she watched New York and knows what she's kind of like and all about. But there's no triggers. There's no, like, way that New York is going to be able to get to her because, like, they don't have any beef. So you are onto something. Yeah. Because New York's thing with pumpkin is, like, you spitting on anybody. But her thing with Safiree is, like, oh, I bet you are you punching anybody right now? New York don't want the smoke with Safiree, I fear.

[00:22:28] I don't really think she wants. What if Safiree's like, yes, now say something else. You know, like, I think New York might actually back down in that situation. You know, she played with a couple people. But there were a few people where she was like, nah, I don't know about that. I think Delicious is one of those people as well, right, where New York is like, we were worried about New York at a couple times. And then she was going toe-to-toe with Delicious. I think we should be concerned if she's deciding to go toe-to-toe with Safiree. I mean, I wouldn't mind seeing it a little bit. Oh, yes, of course.

[00:22:58] Absolutely. But I just don't know what they would beef about. Well, Safiree could get fiery, actually. Because New York could easily push some of those buttons if they were living in the house together. Yeah, but she's happy to see her. She says New York has got her boobs done, but they're still saggy somehow. And maybe she should have gone to Layleen's doctor. Oh, dear. I didn't realize Layleen had any enhancements. I didn't notice. Safiree has only been talking about that woman's breasts for weeks upon weeks.

[00:23:27] I think every other... What did she say? Her weird cleavage. I think she said she had strange cleavage. And I forgot what else she said about her boobs. I don't know. Maybe that was Shay who said it. Yeah. They have been making fun of Layleen's enhancements for a while. But this time, she catches it straight because Safiree is letting New York have it. But she handles these questions well.

[00:23:50] She talks about how she came to charm school to enhance the way she acts, not to lean into the violent ways. And then, of course, when New York kind of comes for her and her hair, she says, Bitches ain't candy apple red. It's pink. And the judges are like, yeah. They love it. Like, I really... I mean, maybe we need to have him. But the Simon judge is so annoying. No. Like, maybe I need to be hate-watching him. You know what I mean?

[00:24:20] But, like, he's such... Like, he's just such a loser. So, yeah. New York even asked Safiree who pushes her buttons the most. And Safiree's like, I push my own buttons the most. I was like, look at you. You brown noser. It's a good answer, though, for this task. It's one of them interview questions. You know, like, what's your biggest fault as a... You know, what's your biggest weakness? You know, my biggest weakness is that I'm such a workaholic. I just try so hard. Exactly. You know?

[00:24:49] I just give it my all. And I don't know when to rest. Exactly. It's like, yeah, I always say... I don't know when to say no. I know when to say no. I take on too much. I take on too much. Yeah. Sometimes I find myself overworking for other people. You know? Underpaid. Happily. Is this how you got into this position right now? I got this gig right here on RecapKickback.com. You heard it right.

[00:25:20] So, New York and Boots come toe-to-toe. And New York says the last time she saw Boots, she was trying to kill her. And Larissa apologizes. She said, you know, I'm sorry about my behavior. And I'm not going to act like that moving forward. New York says, well, I am so sorry to see you turn into such a little punk bitch. And I thought Larissa was going to lose it. But she says, no, I'm just being polite. Something that you're not used to me doing. And she tells us in confessional that this is a little test right now.

[00:25:48] But New York knows that anywhere I see you, I will fuck you up. These girls are great. Yeah. Hey, the villain Larissa, 10 out of 10. No notes, okay? I do not like the quiet Larissa, the one that's like, nah, bring this Larissa every day. Yeah. I like her confession. I want to see these threats. Like, would you really?

[00:26:18] Like, is she really that badass? You know? Like, is she fucking a joke? Well, I mean, she did chase New York down at that reunion. I'm talking about, like, barefoot ran across the stage. They had to carry her out. That said, we have another reunion coming this season, Chantel. And I hadn't even thought about what that could look like. That could look like maybe all these confessionals are leading up to this.

[00:26:44] Like, maybe they left it in because we are going to get that moment at the reunion. Oh, Jesus. Ooh. Or, I mean, or Larissa with somebody else. I mean, because she's going to have a couple enemies by the end of this episode. Shay's turn and New York says, boots. I mean, Bucky. Since you've been following her around. And Shay redirects the conversation back to Charm School and even hugs New York, despite admitting that she does want to knock her out.

[00:27:12] The girls are worried about Becky because all this time, Becky has been saying she would kill New York if she ever sees her. Did you think Becky versus New York would be the main event of today's challenge? No, because I forgot that she hated her so much. You know what I mean? Like, I forgot. I mean, obviously we saw the shoe throw. But like, I kind of just thought a little bit was just for TV, right?

[00:27:40] Like, I did not think that she was going to be this mad at New York still a year later or whatever. She's mad. She's angry. And, yeah. And we are going to see her try to put on a brave face. Rebecca Johnston is on the clock, okay? So she comes in and immediately New York is saying, okay, Becky, so why did you talk with that black scent?

[00:28:08] And her response is, I've been working on it at Charm School. I'm learning that there are certain situations where you can be ghetto in and there are situations where you can be a proper lady. New York did not like that response. I don't really like that response. I hated that response. Hated it. Hated it. Boo, two thumbs down. Yeah, it wasn't good. Yes. Maybe it just could be like nowadays. No, but I probably would have hated it then too.

[00:28:37] What do you think the takeaway should be for Becky? Because it sounds like she's learned that she needs to code switch. You know, there are times where I can be buck wild and there are times when I cannot. What do you think she should be learning in this moment? Um, not to use a black scent. Yeah, there you go. Ding, ding, ding, ring the bell. Becky's missing the point. Becky, you should stop talking like that altogether. You can still have your personality.

[00:29:06] You know, you don't have, but you don't have to be a caricature. You don't have to. You can, you've grown up. Maybe you did grow up talking like that. You don't have to anymore. I think at some point you can mature and just start talking the way that feels natural to you. Be Rebecca. You don't have to, you know, even if you did code switch or whatever the case may be, if you were trying to assimilate to the other, you know, people in your area who talk like that to your friends. But you don't have to. You will be accepted just as you are naturally.

[00:29:34] Uh, and so even though this has been something you're accustomed to doing, you can stop because it's offensive when you do it. That's, that's the lesson. Stop. So offensive. Yeah. Stop. Especially if you can't, if you can't verbalize what it is, you know, you're like, I use a black accent because sometimes it's okay to be ghetto. That is the sentence. That. That's not. That's not. That's not. Becky. Come on now. What's not clicking? Becky. Well, maybe.

[00:30:05] I guess she's just, she's just a wannabe. I mean, we know this. I'm just stating facts here, but like, I guess she feels, she wants to be, she wants to be a person that uses that accent. And so, and speaks that way naturally. I guess it makes her feel cool and important, but it's just, she just needs to not try to be something that she's not. I think people just need to just come out and tell her that she's offending people.

[00:30:35] I think that's what it is. Like people, when you do that, people look at you crazy because it looks like you're mocking them because we know you don't have to talk like that. You were not raised to talk like that. You chose to talk like that. And it's now become your entire personality, but it looks like a mockery of people. And stop calling black folks ghetto just because you, you just stop it. You don't, you don't get to do that. And I think that like, just being like, that is, it is offensive and wrong. I think that if she, at that point is like, all right, you know, I'm not, I'm still going to do it.

[00:31:04] Then it's like, okay, now you were doing this on purpose. Right. Because we've already outlined it. But I think this whole like, be you thing. And she's like, this is me. I've been doing this accent for 20 years. This is me. It's like, yes, yes, you have. Now stop. And I think the now stop part is the part that people struggle with often. Um, do you think that she has learned that lesson since and now just speaks as Rebecca Johnson? Or do you think she still has a little Buck Wild in her?

[00:31:31] I think that she'll probably always have a little Buck Wild in her. Like, I don't think she's like. Like 40 year old Buck Wild? I think she'll still throw a shoe at somebody probably. But do I think she's going to be talking with her hands out like this every time she does the hip hop poses? And I don't, I think that maybe that is gone. But I think you could, you could still be you. No one's telling you to be meek. They're just telling you not to just pretend that you are some cartoon character, black person.

[00:31:59] Like, why is it just the accent or whatever that she's trying to adopt? Like, couldn't she just try to like dance? Like, she should definitely attempt to dance. Because the dance we've seen in the past is bad. So yeah, if she's going to assimilate anything, do that. Like, try to copy something else, maybe. Yeah. Adam says, there are some very contemporary interviews I invite you to watch, Chantel. Chantel's not allowed to watch anything yet. Not to be vetted. Yeah. The heavily vetted interviews.

[00:32:29] We are going to watch the Tyra Banks show episode of where they have the Trump School Girls on though. So we are going to be incorporating some new media into this. But yeah, people are saying, Mary Duda is saying that she did do an interview a while back. And so we might have to explore that and report back if you have any. We're also going to watch the preseason special bag. Like, you know, so we're going to do that as well. We got all that coming and more.

[00:32:55] But yeah, so she is trying to save this conversation with New York. And so, of course, New York's next question is, so you're saying that black people are ghetto? And New York's like, no. I mean, Becky's like, no, not at all. And then she says, well, give me your accent. And like clockwork, she, it's time to get buck wild. It's like, it's always bad. She's like, turns into a white woman version of Flavor Flav.

[00:33:25] Yeah. Obviously, we had that problem with her from the beginning. And like, I've grown just to like Becky a little bit. You know what I mean? But like, just dying on the hill of that black scent is like, Becky, you got to take a hint and then stop it. Yeah. Yeah, it's pretty bad. Again, she seems like a likable enough person, but the thing she's doing is offensive. And since she stops, it's going to be annoying. And I think that's just like the long and short of it.

[00:33:56] Now, there is another question she's asked. Like, who's doing something bad at charm school? And she's like, oh, your girl Pumpkin. And I think this is the thing that you and I both talked about how what we would probably end up doing is get a little chatty, a little gossipy. We're going to talk a little bit, you know. And so. You didn't hear it from me. Right. But it's your girl Pumpkin. And then she takes it even further. And they're like, well, who else? Who else from the competition?

[00:34:25] Were you happy to see get eliminated? And she says, crazy. I was ready to see crazy go home. Chantel, this is a press junket promoting charm school. She just spoiled the season. Hmm. Right. Well, because like, yeah, wouldn't have nothing. Nothing would have been aired yet when they're doing these press junkets. Oh, my God. I didn't even really think about that either. She bombed. Becky bombed. This was really bad. You cannot be like, oh, yeah, crazy is who I was happy to see get eliminated.

[00:34:54] We see that in reality shows all the time when they ask me people, who do you think is going to win? Or who are you rooting for? They cannot just come out. Right. They're not allowed to just come out and say who it is. Becky didn't learn anything in the damn competition. And as it's happening, we get what I would consider one of the better reaction gifs that I see on the internet all the time. It's Monique. Oh, she's taking it. She's taking it. I forgot that's what this was about, but it makes me laugh every time.

[00:35:25] It's so dramatic. It is. Monique's so disappointed. And her girl, Becky. She's taking it. She's taking it. Yeah. I've seen that gif used so many times now, but in different reasons. I'm like, I don't think people even know where it came from. But it's really good. So I think there is a moment where Pumpkin says Larissa is trying to be the next New York. And New York's like, maybe the next New Jersey.

[00:35:54] And oh, no, this was. Yeah, this was still Becky. All of her mistakes. But Becky walks away from this challenge saying, oh, my God, this was the hardest thing I've ever done. And I did great. I passed. She missed the whole point of the lesson. She thought it was just being able to get through an interview with New York without killing her when really it was to apply what she learned in charm school. Right. She made this completely about her beef with New York. And it wasn't about that. It was about the PR.

[00:36:23] So they get their feedback. Brooke took the bait. Shay turned it on and shined. Larissa smiled. And it was done beautifully. Becky started singing like a canary. She took the bait and said negative things about other people. She even spoiled the show. Layleen never got flustered. And New York got flustered instead. Now, we didn't talk about Layleen. New York comes out and asks her about her abusive relationships from the past. I like was that her choice to ask that question or was it the producers? Because I was like that.

[00:36:54] I was a little bit uncomfortable because it wasn't like domestic violence. You're kind of making light of it. And like, how did it feel when I'm like, oh, yeah, I think it was a good question. I hated this question. I hated it so much. And Layleen, to her credit, she responded beautifully. She was just like, you know, we're not here to talk about that. I'm leaving stuff like that in the past and focusing on my career. And my future, like charm school, that you have to tune in for this season to see how it turns out.

[00:37:22] You know, so she understood the assignment. And of course, Safari never got rattled and was exciting and fun. And New York even gives her like the slowest clap like this. First time I've seen that, to be honest. The only time I've ever seen anybody do this, like so violently as a clap. But she gave Safari her that little, she said, you ate that little one little thing. So the test was not to beat New York's ass.

[00:37:47] And the negative feedback is really taking Becky down. And she's in the car weeping. My Buckwild stock is just plummeting in this episode. Ein Sprung zu viel. Ein falscher Schritt.

Becky's wanting to go and cry to Monique. Becky's back. Becky's out. The real Becky's here. There's no Black sense when she's crying. This is the one. This is the person that basically got eliminated from Flavor of Love.

[00:40:12] Because remember, New York was getting a clock. Becky was fine. She was not going home that episode. But the moment New York gets a clock, she's, Flav, I can't. I feel I'm uncomfortable for my safety. And I can't live in the house with her. She's crazy. Oh, my God. And that's when Flav is like, where did your accent go? You know, Becky was never eliminated from Flavor of Flav. She quit, basically, because New York did that whole thing. And then Flav was like, hey, you can go. Now, here, yeah, Black sin is gone.

[00:40:38] She's, and y'all don't know how hard it was for me to do whatever it is. Like, everybody else in there, aside from Safari, and I guess you can count Safari to an extent, because she did try to run up on New York at the reunion. They've all had equally, if not worse, moments with New York. Yeah. Yeah. So why do you get to be in the van, like, blanketing, you know? Yeah. No, it was definitely white woman's tears.

[00:41:06] That was like, mm-mm-mm-mm-mm. Yeah. Buckwild did not have a good episode at all. And it gets kind of worse. It gets way worse. So she's going home, and she wants to quit. But she really was, what she wants is attention, because she did bad in the competition. And so now she's trying to show, like, no, this was so hard for me that I should be given some type of leniency. And so I think, you know what? I think I should go talk to Monique. And, you know, we and you both shake our light.

[00:41:35] We're like, no, do that. And Shay even warns her, like, there's nothing you can say to Monique that's going to save you. In fact, I don't really respect it. You didn't do well in the challenge. But guess what? I've lost four challenges in a row. I don't go crying to Monique whenever I don't get in my way. But Becky's like, I don't know. This sounds like Shay is trying to get me to not talk to Monique. So I'll go home. Maybe that's what this is. Shay is the bad guy. That was also a weird turn.

[00:42:00] I was like, Becky, so, like, it's a bad idea for you to go cry. But maybe this has worked for you, right? Like, you know, like, in the past, like, oh, I did badly. Let me go cry about it. And then, like, whatever. Like, I'll get my way. And so I thought that Shay's advice was sound. I would have probably given the same. I'd be like, don't do that. Like, it's just suck it up. And, like, maybe if they ask you a question about how you did the challenge,

[00:42:30] maybe respond then. But, like, crying to Monique is just a bad look, I think. It's not great. Right. And Layleen is still suspicious about the picks. She doesn't want to talk about, I mean, she doesn't want to, like, be the next one to be set up, you know. If Hottie is innocent, then that means somebody in the house is at least playing a backstabbing game. And so you don't want to take the L next, you know. The suspicion ended up on Layleen last episode. They were like, maybe Layleen hit her own photos.

[00:42:59] So she is motivated to find the bad guy here. And she's asking around. And she asked Larissa. And Larissa's like, what? I think it's one of y'all motherfuckers. And she starts pointing out other people. Shay is there putting suspicion on people to throw the heat off of her and Larissa. And she says, now everyone is Investor Gadget. Who is Investor Gadget? But they were playing the Inspector Gadget music. They were.

[00:43:27] So I definitely chuckled. And I rewound it. Because I was like, I heard the Inspector Gadget music. I'm like, I don't think she said Inspector. Investor. So I guess it's like Investigator Gadget. Yeah. Inspector combo. Yeah. But yeah, it was funny. Yeah, it doesn't make sense. But at the same time, it's kind of funny. You know, like I'll take it. Investor Gadget is what we got to start calling people. I'm down with that. Investor Gadget. Did you ever watch that show?

[00:43:58] Investor Gadget? No, I've never seen it. But I did watch Inspector Gadget. I do. Did you know that Penny was played by, what's her name? Hold on. Her brother's name is Rainbow Sun. And her name. Her mama named her Rainbow Sun. Her son? No, her brother's name is Rainbow Sun. Uh-huh. And her name, she was on Different World. Oh, my God. Oh, was it Cree Summer? Yeah. Cree Summer is playing Penny from Inspector Gadget.

[00:44:27] I did not know that, but I love Cree Summer. So I'll take it anyway. I don't care. So her brother, like he's from Toronto. And like, so like, I kind of know him a little bit. He's an actor here. Okay. Throwing that in there. No, love that. Love a name. Look, a name drop. Love it. So Chantel, we get another one of the iconic gifs in this moment. Larissa, feeling attacked by the rest of the group. She's now gotten on the bed. She's suspicious of everybody. And she says, I think someone's trying to set me up.

[00:44:57] And it's the zoom in. I think somebody's trying to set me up. Slow zoom. Meanwhile, this woman is guilty the entire time. So guilty. So guilty. So many good moments. But like, I don't think I can hold out that long with that lie. It shouldn't even be getting out of control. But again, it's going to get worse.

[00:45:25] Everything in this episode is like leading to, and it's going to get worse. So we, we finally get, oh, no, there's more from her. I'm sorry. So they, she does her, someone's trying to set me up and then they started talking and she's going back and forth with Layleen. And she's like, did you say my name? Did you say Shay? Layleen's like, no, I didn't say, I didn't name anybody. She's like, you must've said something. She's like, I don't remember. And Larissa responds.

[00:45:54] Well, I think you're a drug addict and I think you do coke. I'm just, just, just like, just push her under the bus there. Like, does she, do you think she does? Listen, is she a drug addict? Probably not. You know, it's probably hard to be a drug addict and do both of these TV shows back to back and then not get it on camera. Now, now does she casually do cocaine? Listen, I don't judge. Live your life. If you, if you party like that, hey, that's on you.

[00:46:21] But, um, you know, as Becky's telling us in confessional, yeah, Larissa's getting accused and now all of a sudden she's calling Layleen a crackhead. And this is, this is the thing that like the whole situation that frustrated me with Larissa is that she really allowed Shay to take a lot of the blame of this and she was fine with it. And I thought that it just showed a little bit of bad character in my opinion. Like, fine.

[00:46:49] Like you said, if you're going to go down, you go down and you take your own yourself with you, but as soon as you start taking your friends and you don't care that they're getting some heat that they don't want to have, um, as kind of, I was disappointed in Larissa. Yeah. So, um, here's, here's how it gets to Shay right now. Eyes are on Larissa, but Larissa is adamantly saying, I think somebody is trying to set me up. So Safari investor gadget.

[00:47:16] Number one is like, well, if someone is trying to sell Larissa, who could that possibly be? I don't think it's, she doesn't think that it's a pumpkin who would have done something like this. She doesn't think she knows it's not her. So she's eliminated them three from contention. Um, she doesn't think Layleen did it to herself. So there's not a lot of options left. So she's saying, what if Shay is the one who, what if Shay is the one who did this and she is setting up Larissa.

[00:47:43] And so, uh, this lines up with what Becky is already thinking. Cause Becky's already suspicious of Shay because Shay told her not to go and, and talk to Monique. And so when they go to Larissa, they're telling Larissa, Hey, it's your girl, Shay. She did it to you. She backstabbing you. And Larissa was like, what me? Oh my God. That's, that's crazy. Well, if that's the case, I'll just have to defend myself when it comes to elimination. You know?

[00:48:12] Um, and Larissa is playing into it because she knows that she is the guilty one. So she doesn't care that these girls are suspicious of Shay. You know, she's not going to admit to it being Shay, but she's definitely not going to throw them off the scent. She wants them as confused as possible. Yeah. And that's kind of like, kind of shitty, you know, like I get it. Like, you don't want to admit that you did something, but like, as soon as it starts going on to your friend and you're not like, okay, sorry.

[00:48:41] It wasn't, it wasn't Shay. It was me. I'm sorry. I didn't admit it before. Like that was waiting for that to happen. It just did not. So here's where Becky loses me all the way. Okay. Like I was already out on Buckwild at this point, but now here's where she's losing me. Cause Adam had pointed out earlier that when they asked who pushes your buds the most, Becky names every name, bites at every bait, stays off the message. She just completely failed the challenge and she will go on to fail the challenge from now until the end of the episode.

[00:49:12] I am so disappointed in the way she acts because now she's realized that if I could just get somebody else in trouble for this photo, I can stay. And so when Shay comes upstairs, Becky, who thinks that Shay did this is like, Hey, you know, word on the street is that you took the photo. Mind you, Becky is the word on the street, Becky and Safari. Have started this, this, uh, drama and saying that it is Shay. It is literally you. The call is coming from you, Becky.

[00:49:41] And she's like, yeah. So that's what people are saying. People have told me, I don't know. People just been saying that's what the streets are talking about. And then she says, well, I think you did it, but I hope you didn't. When that's not the truth. You think that she did it. You think that she did it. Cause you don't like that. She told you tried to stop you from talking to Monique. Uh, and so Shay is like, I know I didn't do it. And I know Larissa had better not be throwing me under the bus because obviously Shay knows where the bodies are buried. She knows exactly who did this.

[00:50:08] And so, um, Becky then confronts her about not wanting her to go talk to Monique and the friends are fighting. And Shay says, who put me as the blame? Who, who that's who asked I'm going to beat. And Becky says it was everybody talking about it, including Larissa. And now Larissa and, and, uh, Shay have problems. And they were like such close friends. And this is actually going to tear them apart. Like, do you think that Shay's going to ever forgive Larissa for this?

[00:50:39] I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. We shall see. Um, yeah, this is a tough fight, you know, because we do know that they've been homegirls for the entire time. Um, but Shay does not want to take the blame for Larissa, what Larissa did. Um, Safari is also disappointed in Becky because you, why did you open your big ass mouth? She said, Becky opens her big motherfucking mouth. Like she always fucking does. And she needs to keep her big ass mouth shut. She didn't learn anything in the last lesson.

[00:51:07] But I would have been pissed if Shay went home for this, right? Like ended up coming back around. So in the end, Becky saying this allowed it to kind of piss Shay off enough to like want to have herself be absolved. Yes. No, this saves Shay for sure. We're just looking at Beck Wild crazy because why are you stirring the pot? There's even a moment where Sapphira says, now Becky, you just sound like you stirring shit up. Because it really does. If you were the one suspicious of Shay, why didn't you come to Shay and say, I'm suspicious of you? Yeah. Pretend it like everybody else.

[00:51:37] The streets are saying, the people are telling me. And so then she shifts her attention back to Larissa. Did you take it? And now everyone's yelling. And here we go. She's crying again. This woman has accessed her white lady tears twice in one episode for her own doings. Both times she is crying for some shit that she actively did. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Bad character, Becky. Well, yeah.

[00:52:07] That black scent was hiding her bad character. Well, it's a bad character that she's playing anyways. I got a clip. What I came here for. Do you see? I'm fucking sick. I'm sick. I'm sick to myself because this fucking situation. Oh, never mind. I had a clip. Oh, sometimes it happens. You have to like go back into it. Hey, where are my clip? But anyway, you get the point. The crocodile tears are out. I'm so sad. I'm sick because of what happened.

[00:52:37] My friends are now mad at me because of what I did. Becky. How dare y'all hold me accountable for my own actions? Who do you think you are? Yeah. Like I messed up and I got to blame somebody else for it. Yeah. And I want y'all to feel bad for me. And I'm just like. Feel bad for me. This is your fault. You did this. You could have just. I don't deserve to go home for something that I did.

[00:53:06] You did this. You failed the challenge and then you stirred the pot. All these tears and stuff like that are coming from your actions. I'm going to pull this clip up again because y'all got me fucked up. Go tell me I can't play the clip. So here we go again. Try it again. Then I'm going to have to meanwhile go copyright fight for these people so we can play it anyway. Oh. Oh. Because this fucking situation that we're in has made me fucking do some shit that has fucking hurt my fucking friends.

[00:53:33] They whatever happened made me think about you a way that I'll fucking think about you. It makes me sick enough to want to leave this house. What? I'm going home. I'm going home. So now once again when called out about her black scent in the same episode she wants to quit. That's so typical white woman tears. You know like.

[00:54:02] It's just weaponized so easily for her. You know it's like when everything is going her way she's Becky. Then when she wants to turn it off so she can be Rebecca Johnston and win challenges she's Rebecca Johnston but then when she's called out. I got to quit. I got to leave. All right. All right. You know they say there are no such thing as perfect TV characters and Becky that's

[00:54:31] that to me this is her biggest flaw is that she will always and maybe it's not even a flaw. I mean it's obviously a character flaw but I wonder if it's a TV flaw. Should we be laughing at these are the layers of Becky Johnson? I know I have one shows bad character and like you know I'm calling out Larissa on having been a bad character this episode. It's just it's actually just reminds you like how dangerous that you know some people can be right.

[00:54:59] Like if there was a different situation like she'd turn on these tears and she probably had it work to get her out of certain situations. And so we've seen this type of act like hurt people. And so yeah I just like I hope she watches it back and maybe learns from it but I definitely I think that we should be calling her out on her bullshit. So here we are.

[00:55:26] So so it gets a little dramatic because they have to throw Monique a birthday party and they had about an hour to do it while all this is going on. They have to bake a cake and all this other stuff again how do you not being here when they have to bake a cake is a failure of the show. So we should at least be mad at Larissa for that because we should have hottie here in these moments. But Larissa gave us some great TV so I cannot be that upset. But Monique comes in and she's so touched. Oh my God my babies they love me. They gave me a surprise party.

[00:55:55] Keith and Mickey are there with her as well. And then they she said but where is my Becky? Becky oh she's upside upstairs howling and crying trying to draw attention to herself because she just wants to talk to Monique. It's almost like she's doing this so that Monique will talk to her and so that she can say I didn't mean to lose the challenge. I didn't steal the photos. Mm-hmm. I mean she's getting what she wants right. She's getting she wanted to talk to Monique. She didn't get a chance to do it in the morning because Shay told her that it was a bad idea

[00:56:25] which it was and now she's like oh my God I still need to I need her to feel bad for me and not send me home so I need to do something. And so it just so happens it lines up that Monique is gonna be at the house so maybe she'll come and talk to me. And she does. She said Lord Father God let me go up here and talk to Becky. And so she does. And Becky gets her conversation. She's telling everybody about she's talking about the pigs. She's talking about how she thought Shay was setting up Larissa.

[00:56:53] The downstairs the women of color are a vault and pumpkin. They are not saying anything. They are not saying anything. Keith is like so awkward here. Nobody uh nothing to share. Yeah they're like nah. Thank you. Nothing to share. Nothing to report. Sorry. Um but Shay overhears Becky falling apart and now she feels bad because Becky feels bad. So now Shay who is the victim now feels bad that Becky has spread a rumor about Shay.

[00:57:22] Shay and now Shay is apologizing to Becky. She got it. She did it. They got Monique and she got Shay to apologize. Taps the sign. So Monique tells Becky be able to say when you made a mistake. And then Shay comes in and accepts the apology. And now Shay is doing a one-on-one with Monique because she has to speak up. Two women went home based on a lie and people do jail time for stuff like that.

[00:57:52] So Shay wants to talk to Larissa and get her to apologize to save her from leaving. Um Monique goes downstairs and throws them all on the bus with such subtlety. She comes downstairs. You see Shay teary-eyed. You see Becky teary-eyed kind of. And then she comes downstairs like thank y'all two women for telling me what you told me. And of course Larissa's sitting across the table like these snitches.

[00:58:15] Like the fact that Larissa was so mad at Shay after like being like oh she's like a bad friend for like she like ending up. She didn't even fully say what happened. You know what I mean? Like she alluded to certain things but from what they showed it wasn't like a full-on admission. Yeah. And with the fact that she's like mad at her for not keeping her secret longer. It's kind of like you shouldn't be putting your friends in situations where they have to keep your secrets.

[00:58:45] That's the big takeaway here. You shouldn't have put her in that moment in the first place right? It should have been a you thing and the moment became a Shay thing. At that point you have to take you have to take the brunt of this because this is your doing. Um she's telling Larissa hey it's better if you just admit it because Monique already knows. Larissa's like oh if she knows I mean you told her. Shay's like yes. And she's like okay well uh now I think you're a snitch. And now Shay is getting defensive over being a snitch. Uh and Larissa is like she turned the whole house against Shay by not standing in and being like it was not Shay.

[00:59:15] Shay would not do that to me. Y'all got the wrong one. She could have very least done that. But instead she was willing to let her. She's like I mean it was me. Yeah. So she's a backstabbing bitch and that shit was out of order she says. And so um Safari hopes that Shay goes home because there's nothing worse than a manipulative ass bitch who is trying to be your friend. Larissa is hoping Becky goes home because she's being so dramatic talking about how she wants to go home and crying like a baby.

[00:59:43] Um Becky gets called down to the carpet because she did the poorest in the challenge. Uh and she knows she is going home. Shay is called down despite doing well in the challenge and so is Larissa. Uh both of them already know what's coming. Uh she's tired of being on the motherfucking carpet every fucking elimination. And it's getting her last motherfucking nerves. And so we kind of go through the beats of the challenge. Becky's challenge was a failure. Mickey was appalled at how she threw everything out that she had learned out the window.

[01:00:13] Uh Keith says he came in and found that Shay was involved in drama. But now he knows she has a loaded gun and he's just waiting to see what she did with it. I really did like that line. Okay bye. It's a good line because he's looking at Shay like you could go home tonight or you could pull the trigger. Let's see what happens. Woo. True true true. Uh but like I hated that Shay was in that position. Like because she wants to be a good friend. But she also wants to stay in the competition. But she also doesn't want to snitch. Like you know what I mean?

[01:00:42] Like it's just like it she was in a and now she's in a fight with Larissa over it. It's yeah. Larissa put her in a bad position and I wasn't it wasn't good for her. I was worried that they're going to send both of them home. Yeah. If they were going to send both of them home they should have sent Becky home too. I'm sorry. This was just such a bad. All three? Clear the carpet. Keith says it should be pumpkin down there. She actually did worse than boots. But Larissa you've been involved in the drama. And he says I think you're a certified psychopath to me.

[01:01:11] Mickey tells her to step up and own who she is. And then Monique gets up for some final words. She says Larissa are you Shay's friend? How important is that friendship? And Larissa says important enough not to say what we did. The picture. And Monique reminds her of when she asked her point blank. And you lied to her face. And she said when I tell you little girl I am fighting with this in my spirit. She says your whole posture says I don't give a damn about you. And I would drown to bring you down Shay.

[01:01:41] And so Larissa and Shay start going back and forth on the carpet with each other. Larissa doesn't think she should take the blame with her. With Shay. And Safiri says Larissa is dumb. And she doesn't even think she could have come up with this plan on her own. So Safiri's at least on to the fact that she had a co-conspirator. Larissa might have actually physically did it. But Shay was complicit in what was happening. That's why I was worried that they both might go home. Yeah. I mean they're both guilty. At least guilty by association for Shay.

[01:02:10] But Monique says because of Larissa's fight and her cockiness she's expelled. And Becky lives to fight another day. Final words from Larissa. Monique can kiss my black ass. I'm not going to change for nobody. I'm Boots. I'm back. And she can kiss my ass. Boots is back. Boots is at the reunion. Yeah. She's like New York now. She's like it's fabulous. It's fabulous. You know.

[01:02:39] Boots is back. Yeah. She's going to have to. I thought she might have gone out in a little bit more of a fiery rage. But you know her final confessional is still pretty good. And it won't be the last time we see Boots. Because we know that she's slated to be at the reunion. So let's see if she has any words for these people. Because Shay has some final words for her. She says you played yourself. You the one who ran off at the mouth. You the one who took the picture. Get your shit and get out. I'm here. You're not. You gone.

[01:03:09] So kick rocks. Deuces. So we'll have to see at the reunion. Yeah. We'll have to see a reunion. If this friendship survives this beef. But Chantel. Yeah. She's gone. We lost Larissa. What do you think about Larissa as a TV character? She's an amazing TV character. She's a great villain. She's willing to do things that I couldn't even think of. And she won't change for nobody. So please don't change.

[01:03:39] I love that. Yeah. And come back for season two of Charm School. You know? Like, bring her back. Charm School all-stars. Bring her back. Chantel. This has been so much fun. We did it. We did it. Yay! We did it. And so did you. If you're listening to this, thank you for joining us for this journey through Charm School episode 7 or episode 8, depending on where you're watching it.

[01:04:02] But we will be back next week to talk about the next episode of Charm School, which is titled... Don't let me lie to you. I think it's... Great podcasting. Tore up from the floor up. So we'll be down to our remaining five. Yeah. Oh, okay. Let's see. Down to our final five, Chantel. But until we come back next week, what you got going on?

[01:04:31] Well, I know that Love Island has just dropped both the U.S. and the U.K. So I will be getting to that cast. I've been kind of just, like, avoiding it because I want to look at the cast and have some fresh eyes of my thoughts and feelings. So I'm going to get to it tomorrow. Tomorrow, I'll probably go live at some point in the evening to talk about this cast. And yes, I do know that there is already controversy. I do know that somebody has already been removed.

[01:04:58] So I guess I'm not fast enough reviewing the cast before they start dropping. So someone already got dumped from the island, apparently. And you'll be talking about this on your show? On my channel, Reality Realness with 3S's. I'm also going to be doing the finale episode of Euphoria with Grace on Tastemakers on RHAP. So that comes out usually on a Tuesday. So listen out for that. All right.
