Real World: Brooklyn (Episode 4) Recap


Last week on the Real World: Brooklyn, Ryan and Baya flirted, Katelynn had boyfriend problems, and the girls and Ryan pole danced. This week I better see some drama or I am going to be pissed. I am quickly losing interest in these losers. PLEASE let the fighting begin…

Spoilers after the jump.


To start this episode, Devyn tells the group what she wants to do with her life. She says she wants to move to LA after this because in NYC she would get pushed into Broadway, and that is not where she wants to be. And what she means by this is that she wants to be famous. JD thinks she’s just being young and naïve, and is just doing whatever she wants. Yes, but you’re all on The Real World, so isn’t that sort of a pot-kettle situation?

The roommates are going to a swanky private party and Ryan is having some issues with having to dress up. “Where are we going? A golf club?” he asks incredulously. He decides to go uberfancy and so he wears a sport coat and handlebar mustache. Nice. Alex, Scott’s model friend, was at the party and Blayne tried out his game on her. Ryan was not optimistic, but Blayne did seem to somewhere with her.

Next, we see JD take a phone message for Sarah from a very rude, insistent man. Sarah’s not there because she’s shopping with Chet and Katelynn. Sarah questions Katelynn’s taste, which happens to be small, trashy, and tight. It’s probably not the best combo, and I totally agree with Sarah. Personal style be damned, I don’t want to see any more booty shorts out of this girl!

In the car on the way home, Blayne pushes Sarah buttons about domestic abuse without knowing how close to home he’s hitting. She tells Blayne that her father hit and sexually abused her and that she would never let him back in her life. I’m guessing this is somehow related to the phone call from Pushy-Man.

Back at the house, the man calls again, who happens to be her father. I am not very surprised. Rightly, Sarah tells him never to call her again and eventually hangs up on him after he tells her that she is playing into her mother’s lies and distortions.

After she hangs up, Baya comforts her. Sarah can’t understand how he got the number, and calls her mother for guidance. He mother helps her, tells her to have her roomies screen her calls, and tells her not to be a victim. It really seems to help.

Later on at a bar, JD introduces Blayne to Angelique, who he describes as a better transsexual than Katelynn, thereby confirming to Blayne that Katelynn is transsexual. Smooth move. He also introduces Angelique to Devyn and says that Angelique was on American Idol and says that she sings 100 times better than Devyn. Wow, JD is on fire tonight. Angelique sings to the crowd, and pulls Devyn onto the stage with her. Devyn is pissed, but sings anyways.

Sarah tells Katelynn that JD basically outed her being transgender. Katelynn confronts JD about it and he makes incomprehensible noises.

Next, we see Devyn still mad about the previous night. She said it was the most awkward thing she’s ever done in her life. She talks to JD about it and says that what he did was, “so disrespectful, dismissive, and dismeaning.” JD blames it on the alcohol and Devyn’s not having it. She tells him she’ll never see him the same, and he says she should be mad at Angelique, if any one. That’s a great idea JD! I’m sure laying the blame on someone else will make Devyn feel better. Devyn refuses to hug JD after they talk it out.

Later, Devyn then meets with her aunt who is in The Color Purple and she gets Devyn in contact with a casting director.

Alex calls Blayne and they mmake a date, sans Scott tagging along, which was much discussed.

Sarah’s dad has called again, and says that there is no reason that she shouldn’t talk to him. She hangs up on him again and still hasn’t seemed to get through to him.

Sarah tells Devyn that she had been molested at a daycare center, so she got therapy and counseling. After he parents separated, her dad took her camping and only brought one sleeping bag. She left and hasn’t talked to her dad since, and has been trying to press charges.

Alan Filderman, the casting director, calls Devyn and sets up an audition with him. She has to have a couple of monologues and a song prepared.

Next, we hear Devyn practicing her acapella song, The Star Spangled Banner. She’s actually good, much better than at the bar during her sing-off with Angelique. She’s feeling a little nervous, but definitely excited. On the way to her interview, she accidentally drives to New Jersey. Ouch, that’s rough. First of all she’ll be late, and second of all she has to go to Jersey. Yikes. She ends up more than 45 minutes late. He lets her audition anyway and then tells her that he’ll let her know if anything comes up.

Sarah talks to her mom on the phone and they talk about how she wants to work at an organization that helps victims of sexual abuse. She’s very passionate about it, and it’s definitely a better goal than most of these guys have. Later, she volunteers at a nonprofit art mentor program. She mentors a girl names Sapphire who she obviously gets along with and promised to go again.

Next, Blayne almost gets stood up by Alex for their date. He’s happy to be out with her because it makes him feel good that she’s pretty. She’s 19 and more experienced than him. She says that one day she will sleep over with him and Blayne remarks to the camera, “The fact that Alex is willing to sleep over with me. I can tell that she’s sexually attracted to me, and that’s natural.” Is it? Really? I beg to differ.

When Blayne gets back, Ryan tells him he’s wasting his time since he can’t see himself marrying her. It’s Ryan’s belief that dating should only be a stepping stone to marriage. So, he see himself marrying Michelle Ma Belle, but he thinks that sometime down the line something could happen with Baya. So he wants to cheat on his future wife? Hmmmmm…

Katelynn complains that she hasn’t orgasms in a while, and that leads to questions to Blayne from Katelynn and Sarah. It comes out that he doesn’t masturbate, have oral sex, and he has never touched a boob. Don’t worry about it, though, because the nocturnal emissions take care of everything. Sleep on that one.

I'm liking JD less and less. I thought he was good at the begining, but now he just keeps being a total ass.

I was surprised Devyn could actually sing, but the fact that she was so late kinda killed her chances of getting anything with that casting agent.
