Back in the Arid Arboretum of Foiled Baby-Making, Kacy and Cori are sitting in the kitchen with calculators, talking about sperm.
at this rate we could just buy an orphanage in china and pick one
Basically, Cori’s vadge is gonna have to ingest a shit-ton of sperm if they ever want a baby coming out of that hole, and shit-tons of sperm are expensive — $2,830 a month expensive, which’s half their monthly take-home (nice!), more than I made last year, and also $330 more than this crib costs:
So throw this in:
The point of this exercise is that BOTH of these items come with babies and it fits within the monthly budget.
BABIES FOREVER
In the interview, Cori says, “I think we should get a person,” which goes over with Kacy approximately as well as “Cori should just get a person” went over with my butch girlfriend last week when I said it. Apparently this is a thing.
Cori: “I think we need to get a live person.”
Kacy: “A what?”
Cori: “A live person.”
Kacy: “What do you mean, a live person? Like a different donor?”
Cori: “Yeah, but like — a person.”
this kind of person
This is a major affront to Kacy’s masculinity and overall mood, which is subsequently an affront to Cori’s overall mood and Cori’s overall womb and so then a little fight begins.
it’s not like it is on tv, cori
Cori: “Don’t yell at me about this. I’m stressed out enough.”
Kacy: “Fucking Ditto!”
Cori leaves the interview room, and Kacy plows through the Fourth Wall to go calm her down.
broads are some load, bro
They could just clone a sheep and raise it as a baby at this point, that’d be way cheaper. It wouldn’t even care that it had two moms because like, it’s a sheep. You know?
Sajdah‘s taking Sarita to The Gay Center so Sarita can get a full-force homosexual experience with soda-pop and group exercises which is a very Debbie Navotany thing to do. Sajdah‘s nervous her Mom might say something ignorant or break out in hives in reaction to the lezbo-hippie vibe, but onward ho Brave Young Christian Soildah.
hm. i like sprite too. i guess gay people are just like us
Tonight is a training session for Vote for Equality, a group that walks around Los Angeles telling bigots to get their heads out of their asses and vote for equal rights. Time to split into small groups to hug and play the mirror game!
Sajdah: “I’m a little nervous because my Mom isn’t usually extremely sensitive to LGBT like, rights and concerns, like she calls me gay all the time–“
Obviously Sarita’s in a group with a flannel-clad butch lesbian and, I think, a Whole Foods patron.
and then i was like “your whole hand? we gotta change the subject, this is more than i wanna know, toffee”
Sarita interviews that at first she thought Sajdah was just having a phase when Sajdah announced her homogayness, like that time she’d only wear socks and put ketchup on everything, but then she was on Saj‘s facebook, and “I said to my husband, ‘she’s really gay, isn’t she? she is really liking girls.’ That’s still something that I have to get used to and I have to work on.”
aren’t we all
Sarita, touched by the magic that lights the inner fire of all Sajdah‘s friends & family, is super perfect here.
Sarita: “I’m Sarita, straight, Saj‘s Mom. I just think that it’s beautiful for you all to stand up for your rights and fight for what you truly truly believe in.”
Meanwhile in the Village of the Damned, Kacy and Cori are yelling at each other about sperm.
they even fight kindly
Kacy: “You have no idea what it’s like from my side! If we go back to the beginning — I just feel so far away again, just to sit there and to just be told — like I have to put such an investment into this sperm — this GUY-“
Look, having a baby is hard work and sometimes the hardest part for two strong happy lesbian clam-bakers is that this process involves, in some way, a fucking DUDE, and the game is how to make that not feel as totally awkward as it totally does.
this will be an everlasting love
A bizarrely unspecified amount of time later, Romi, still recuperating from whatever head injury necessitates that gauzy skull-wrap, is giving Kelsey The Breakup Talk while Kelsey stares blankly into space with an “over it” facial expression.
i wonder if i can break up with that thing on her head but keep the hoodie
Romi says she can’t get sober while living/loving/fucking a drinker, and Kelsey says that’s selfish and in the end, Romi talks so much louder and with more facial expressions/gestures with Kelsey that her point almost rules the day by default.
Kelsey: “Romi can be very selfish. I think she lives in a world where it’s all about Romi… I was giving so much of myself, but it wasn’t reciprocated, it was all about Romi.”
Ahem TRUTH
where do you go with your broken heart in tow, what do you do with the leftover you
Romi: “I’m sorry Kels, but the person I was with you is not here anymore. I’m sorry that I don’t — I can’t go get drunk with you. I know that you miss that. I can’t be that right now.”
It kinda breaks your heart a little because obviously it’s SUPER-hard to get sober after years of drinking for so many reasons and one of them is that it’s hard to re-possess responsibility of your own life (which is perhaps what we’re all seeking to escape with our whiskey and beer) and no matter how much these two cats love each other, you can’t take your life back while your old life is sleeping beside you every night.
If Romi misses the old days, Kelsey’s a painful reminder of that, and if she doesn’t miss the old days, Kelsey’s part of a thing Romi’s eager to discard.
Sometimes you love a person and they love you back but that’s the only thing you have in common, is that you love each other. And it’s not enough.
baby sometimes love just ain’t enough
Ultimately, Romi and Kelsey don’t get along, don’t enjoy each other’s company, don’t share general life goals, don’t ever have sex and don’t trust each other and so let’s wrap this shit up, cry a whole bunch, yell and throw things and call it a day!

I saw the episode a couple of days ago online. I thought it was pretty sad. I don’t wish anything bad against anybody. I just felt that this whole season was a big downer. Then again, it had its moments. I noticed that Whitney doesn’t blog about the show anymore. I am with you, Reise. I will be glad when it is all over too. I am burned out from this show. I wish all the cast members the best with their lives. Peace.
i felt so uncomfortable watching this because it was so fucking personal. also, there was a cricket that was loose in the house and it kept chirping during whitney and rachel’s scene which made the awkward pauses even more awkward.
Riese thanks for keeping up with this for our entertainment. I have to admit I’ve been waiting for your recap as this episode left me with a weird sensation.
Kudos to Kacy for handling her wife so calmly. Romi this ep: wtf?. Whitney sometimes makes me believe she really is a good person and then something happens.
I loved all the surprising guests you proposed… brilliant!
Rachel’s scene: cry cry cry think about how it relates to you, cry cry cry and decide to try and go back to therapy
WHAT A DOWNER, THIS SHOW
THIS SHOW IS A DEB, YOU’RE SUCH A DEB THIS THINGS’S A DEB WHAT A DEB YOU GUYS DEB DEB DEB AND NOT NAVOTNY
thinking you look good, realizing you look fake and crazy, feeling like every outfit needs a hat
THE AFTER EFFECTS OF THIS SHOW
Bitching about your girlfriend with your ex-whatever’s pretty low, yo. Then breaking up with your girlfriend and hooking up with your ex right after is …
the fucking fuck. didn’t see that coming.
you guys, that’s how babies are made.
Wow, Romi is pretty heartless. I mean, Kelsey can actually WATCH this back. Also, next week’s episode actually looks GOOD!
i know i almost thought the same thing re: next week
WHOA! :O
Also- Kinda glad that Romi and Kelsey broke it off. Kelsey has a lot of growing up to do…Most of all- she has to learn how to keep a job & care for herself before entering another relationship.
I’m also glad that it’s over. Though I’d wager that also Romi has a lot of growing up to do.
All her complaining bout how she has to take care of Kelsey and basically putting the blame for that on Kels… Romi put herself into that position of mommy-ing her girlfriend… her wanting Kelsey to text her that same night, so she could know she’s alright is a good example for that…
As much as Romi doesn’t want to take care of her girlfriend I believe she herself wants to be taken care of. Wonder how that hookup with Whitney will play out.
i completely agree. kelsey may not have to stop drinking but she most certainly should get her shit together, get a job, and start supporting herself. 23 is young but she’s still an adult.
I once knew a guy named the warhammer
And he told me he had friends in the slammer
The one good thing about him was his meat
Which he supplied to all of us which was no easy feat
I’m not talking about the thing that Whitney used as a model
Mine is more along the lines of that thing that used to stand in a field and dawdle
It would be easier to say that I’m talking about a cow
But forget that because these girls need to take a bow
I’ve never seen this much drama in my life
Hopefully Chaiken won’t make me live through it thrice!
LMFAO “communist Romania” hahhahaha nice nice
I love the end! HILARIOUS!
Sajdah’s mom is pretty awesome. I wish everyone’s mom could have that same positive acceptance.
The Surprise Guests were the best thing about this recap, aside from: “That’s why Romi is the femmiest fem in all the femland. She could wear pants WITH pumps and nobody would dare second-guess her. Romi could swing a hammer while fucking a girl wearing a double-headed dildo and yelling “Call me Daddy!” and still — still even then, in that outlandish and pornographic and slightly unpleasant situation — her eyes would still give her away.”
I feel like this episode had waaayy too much going on. Just so many feelings, urrrgghhh!
This recap went really nicely with my hangover. Thanks!
There’s probably somewhere else that has this information but…. where’s the best/easiest place to find these episodes online? After catching all the recaps this season, I feel that I may need to actually see an episode.
As always comments linking to or discussing illegal video sites will be(and have been) deleted but also, I don’t recommend watching this show even just to see how horrible it is. So many facepalm moments.
Oh, shoot, sorry, I thought posting URLs was banned, not mentioning them entirely. Mah baaaad…
Ah… I didn’t know that. :/ Sorry. Didn’t mean to be a rule-breaker.
The “who’s at the door” bit was pure genius!
Just think, only one more episode to recap! You can do it!
I don’t watch TFS, I only read the recaps. Sooooo, why does that dildo look flesh colored in a couple of pics, and blue in the other one? Color me confused.
“Hi, I’m Ilene Chaiken” – Lmao!
I’m sorry but this episode gave me another reason to cringe every time Romi was onscreen. How dare her slow but sincere girlfriend have a glass of wine, while she bangs Whitney whose dreads probably reek of alcohol from a mile away? The writers on this show suckkkkkkkkk!
“Whitney trusts everyone else is keeping better tabs on her behavior than she is, because they are.”
The truth, you speak it Riese.
Romi is a class act. And Kelsey might as well have had the whole bottle for the price of one glass it seems. Fuck girl, grab some brie, a baguette, lock yourself in the cellar and make it a weekend.
Other than that, I like Kacy. Kacy can stay.
Those are all my weekends.
Your weekend and my weekend needs to happen in the same location.
I feel like I need to disclose that I may or may not replace “some brie” with “bottle of wine”…priorities.
Cellar is specified as wine cellar. Problems, I solve them.
I THINK WE HAVE A WINNER.
the inseminator is back!
and yeah, now i can totally see how they needed to make a mold of whitney’s friends wang instead of just drilling the appropriate holes for the catheter into an ordinary off the shelve dildo. NOT.
at least it comes in a nice shade of hulk green.
It was explained in the recap of the episode when the inseminator was introduced that they couldn’t use a regular dildo because of copyright issues. I think if it works, the idea is to actually sell this as their own product which is why they can’t use already existing dildos.
“The Inseminator” sounds like a wrestler/superhero/villan type thing. one or two or maybe all three of those.
but I dont think I would want to be around it.
Totally agree with you, Jessie.
Can’t deny I’m somewhat pissed off with the inseminator’s creators.
Getting that bogus explanation of copyright infringement and hygenic issues for having to endure that craptacular fest-o-wang felt like an insult to my common sense and sucked. But I was willing to give them the benefit of the doubt, that they indeed did some research which we didn’t get to see ‘n’ all that jazz.
And now all that deep deep research amounts to a catheter?!
I think Alyssa and Whitney very well know how reality tv works and play the game – making up an interesting storyline (latching on to kacy&cori’s), providing enticing visuals (penis galore) and milk it (selling the inseminator).
Hence I consider it legitimate to criticize them for the storyline they provided just as much as ifc.
In this case it read: dykes just can’t do without a penis. Also women have penis envy.
It’s old, it’s lame and I’m effing sick of it.
I just wanna hurl book copies of Judith Butler at’em. At high velocity.
It’s not about the penis, you nincompoops, it’s about the phallus! (And in comparison to that penis looses.)
Going with a living penis model instead of molding their own dildo from scratch was entirely their decision. It makes for ‘interesting’ footage, maybe they prefer very penis-like looking dildos themselves (I don’t wanna know!) or assume dildo-using dykes do. Whichever way in doing so they pushed that age-old trite theme of the dance around the male’s dong.
I don’t really understand your anger with Whitney and Alyssa. Sure, the producers milked the whole inseminator thing and totally turned it into something to keep the large male fan base entertained but I think Whitney and Alyssa created it with good intentions. Sure, it may just be a dick mold and a catheter but there’s nothing else on the market like that, so it needed to be created. I mean, isn’t that what Whitney said from the beginning? It’s so simple it seems ridiculous that it didn’t already exist. Some of the greatest inventions are the simplest, just look at the snuggie! Just because the solution to the problem was simple doesn’t mean this was an unnecessary invention or that they didn’t do their research.
And while you may feel that the inclusion of the dildo at all was unnecessary we saw that Kacy wanted to be involved in the process in this way, they went looking for a product exactly like this and couldn’t find one. I don’t think it’s appropriate for anyone to judge her decision or what would make her feel more comfortable. I know personally that if I was trying to have a baby my girlfriend would definitely want the inseminator and it would be extremely important to her. It’s not about penis envy, it’s about wanting to be involved in the process in a more “natural way.” With a product like this a woman or a trans* man could actually impregnate their partner themselves in the middle of a sexual act as opposed to in an office or with a turkey baster or, god forbid, an anal douche. While some people may say that the desire to do that is just some ingrained heteronormative idea of how a baby should be made I think it’s up to the individuals to make that decision themselves.
The summarize this extremely long comment: Some people are going to be really glad for the inseminator and I think Whitney and Alyssa knew that when they created it. With the producers did with their good intentions is the fault of the show, not them.
Maybe there are some misunderstandings.
I think it’s Alyssa and Whitney who milk(ed) the inseminator thing. (And in general (try to) use being part of this tv show as a platform for other business endeavors. The show’s a vehicle to make money.)
I don’t think the inclusion of the dildo is unnecessary, but of the penis/Caes/the dipping of the no-no parts. To make an ejaculating or in this case inseminating dildo a penis(!) is simply not necessary. At all.
My critique gears at W&A chosing to go the route of dipping no-no parts. Which does it’s part in reinforcing age old narratives of penis envy, heteronormativity yadda yadda fishcakes. Or as Riese wittingly put it in her recap “Whitney’s hatched a plan to help Cori & Kacy get preggers “the natural way.” Obviously this involves a penis, which is the Superior Method of Conception.”
That’s one thing that has me throwing hissy fits.
The other thing’s Alyssa wrote “I could have molded something out of clay first to cast, but PLEASE PEOPLE… REMEMBER WE ARE TRYING TO MAKE ENTERTAINING, FUNNY, INSANE moments that people will remember.” (her caps, not mine) and thus admitted that they are very well aware of the tv format/genre they (Whitney and Alyssa) are in and casting themselves as stakeholders/knowingly, deliberately acting (as in ‘to take action’) protagonists.
As thus I think it is admissible they may bear the brunt of the criticism of this fab ‘lez representation’ they’re cooking up. In this case it’s defo not just IFC or ‘the producers’.
In no way do I judge how Cori and Kacy go about conceiving their child(ren). Whether they (wish to) use an inseminating dildo (or which shape it has) I did not discuss.
(Btw, when my partner and I will try to have a kid, there is a very high probability that one of her favorite dildos will get drilled for the catheter plumbing. With that variety of dildos on the market for that huge variety of preferences of all the different lesbian vaginas out there…)
I was so surprised when Sajdah’s Mom showed up bald because on that one episode she was all like:
“I ain’t on the bottom of nothing, You ain’t pulling my hair out. No, I ain’t on the bottom of nothing.”
I was legit confused, I think I have OCD.
Anyway, loved this recap, especially the ‘who is it’ part at the end. It was suspenseful even though I knew who it actually was.
oh riese, every trlw recap you write just convinces me further that you are actually a great queer warrior sent to earth to protect us all from ilene and the pain of having to watch this show in real life.
ugh really? Romi just seems so cold.
Kelsey can come drink wine with me anytime.
Sorry I even on the recaps I just kind of skip over all the baby parts. I really wish they fleshed those girls out at least a little bit more. I know there has to be more to them then sperm.
Kelsey acts like a stoned 14 year old boy. Her girlfriend is going through a detox and Romi did say that they should break up. It was Kelsey who said that she wanted to give up drinking for their relationship. Romi is obvs not perfect, but why is everyone Team Kelsey. That girl needs to get her shit together.
wellllllll i don’t think berating your girlfriend on a day to day basis about her lack of moneys (p.s. unemployment in california is 11.8%) and adultness and not treating you to things you know she can’t afford is pretty damn lame. also didn’t she like do the cooking, cleaning, and beer runs, shit i’d love a girlfriend that would do all of that without being asked. anyway if there is one good thing ifc is doing is giving these people another stream of cash flow.
on the other hand i do think kelsey needs to get her shit together, maybe go back to school or just try no fly solo for a bit and pick herself up from this messy break up. but at the end of the day…i have no real fucks to give, they can do whatever it’s not really affecting me (as long as mr isn’t involved, obsession begins now)
I speak only from recaps as I haven’t watch the show,or previews or really anything(which means really I have no idea what is going on). I just see pictures and well Kelsey is cute and I have a thing for stoned like personalities so maybe that’s my attraction. Really it’s just that Romi always seems so mean to her, berating her either to her face or to anyone that will listen. And yeah Kelsey is young but she does seem like she’s trying, having a glass of wine with family is not the same as getting drunk.
1. Like many said, Romi was constantly putting Kelsey down. Yes, Kelsey needs to get her shit together, but as a girlfriend it’s more important to help and support (notnecessarily financially) her, or try to get help for her, rather than constantly berate and complain about her, especially in front of family and friends (AND ON CAMERA!).
2. Romi obviously wanted to break up with Kelsey a loooonng time ago (that was probably why they were not having sex), and this whole drink thing is an excuse for it
3. Kelsey DID stop drinking with her. She had ONE glass of wine while she was away, when Romi wasn’t even around. Obviously she did not do it out of spite, nor did because she was addicted to it, it was just the situation. And she was honest about it (she very well could have lied).
4. Apart from helping support Kelsey financially, Romi is pretty self-centered, everything has to be done her way (because she’s older?), everything is dictated on her terms. Whatever Kelsey says gets dismissed as because she’s young or she doesn’t see it yet, etc. Kelsey was completely right when she said that Romi cares more about herself than everyone else, she is pretty selfish and Kelsey was giving A LOT of herself for Romi.
5. Remember the first few episodes, Romi just wouldn’t put out? then BAM! right after the break up SEX WITH WHITNEY. (Who also drinks, btw.) Add to that how she gossiped about Kelsey with Whitney at Francine’s party? That whole ending was messed up.
And also, Kelsey is HOT.
The picture captions are probably my favorite part.
Also, the word “banglets”.
Thank you Riese.
I really enjoyed this episode. I know that’s a terrible thing to say but it was really touching.
hahaha riese it seems like that sour diesel really did a number on you (it’s my fav) loved loved loved this recap also…..
PINOEDACTYL TIME!!!! rawr

also, didn’t everyone see this whole romi whitney thing coming??? I mean those nights out with whit talking about how kelsey is too young and not on the same page and can’t take care of romi like a princess…..and then they cut to whitney (in that same episode) where she talks about liking to take care of girls and buying them things like princesse…. i mean no surprise here
yeah it has seemed pretty obvious Romi was pushing Kels away and trying to get back in with Whitney (and Whitney just seems to want it because well shes Whitney does she say no? hit it once then leave it till it finds something new), which seems like a really bad decision on her part but whatevas
Kelsey KILLED IT in this episode. Between the perfectly timed “I feel sick” and “I NEED I NEED I NEED”, it was the best.
“Girl, I am going to give you PLEN-TY of space.”
i think i spontaneously started clapping after that line.
LMAO! that laughs-with-ex-whatever was hilarious, but once dogs came into picture… priceless :D It actually makes me want to watch the episode so I could re-experience this recap :D
I loved how Kelsey handled that breakup. She finally redeemed herself for me in this episode. I realiZe the show is edited, but damn romi came off as crazy, selfish and manipulative (to me). She constantly made condensing comments to her or spoke disparagingly about her to others. It didn’t seem like she respected Kelsey. If there’s a season 3 I hope kelseys on it. I also hope she doesn’t try to get back with romi- but it looks like she’s with dani Campbell now?
really?! pics or it didn’t happen
Ahem, allow me http://www.google.com/m/search?site=images&source=mog&hl=en&gl=us&client=safari&q=dani%20campbell%20and%20romi%20klinger&sa=N
wah?
Does this mean we can look forward to her being in season 3?
ooooh sorry i misread that to say that dani campbell and kelsey were dating… never mind.
here’s a pic of romi+dani, so it happened: http://liquorinthefront.tumblr.com/post/8097854470
I misread that the same way! although I guess it makes sense for the “bigger names” to date.
not saying it’s fake, or they don’t love each other or that I’m undermining their relationships etcetcetcetc just that it makes more sense?
unrelated, I love how consistently hilarious these recaps are.
yes thats what i meant, sorry! phone commenting is difficult :/
Here it says they’re “good friends” http://www.tenderomi.com/2011/07/11/amigas-por-vida/
I’d rather hope so. Dani seems way too sane for Romi.

Hannah Hart! Worlds collide!
I love her so much.
3 days and then this lesbo madness is over! Thank the lord and sensible TV execs for not ordering more than 10 eps this season!
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers is one of the creepiest movies ever made. My mom thought it was romantic until I asked her how she would handle me getting kidnapped by a mountain man for the purposes of shacking up/falling in love/producing babies. “Oh… I never thought about is THAT way /sadface.” Krystle 1 Mom 0 (for once).
*facepalm*
Reise, I really like what you wrote about, “Every year the chances of coming out without totally destroying your entire life/family seem slightly higher.” I feel that way sometimes. What a wonderfully exciting, emotionally taxing feeling that is.
okay this line is cold and hilarious at the same time: Hi, I’m Ilene Chaiken, director, producer, and executive creator of Showtime’s lowest-rated series, The Real L Word. LMAO!DAMN, THAT WAS FUNNY.
anyway, i loved all the scenes with sajdah’s mom. for the first time, i truly saw the sweet and respectful side of sajdah because she was in her mother’s presence. and i’m happy her mom seems to be coming to terms with saj’s sexuality.
romi was being manipulative and selfish to get kelsey to stop drinking and kelsey is a grown adult who seems like she’s high as a kite, can’t keep a job, and can’t support herself. romi was controlling and kelsey was co-dependent. they needed to seperate. i do have to say that i thought it was disrespectful for romi to be talking about kelsey behind her back to whitney.
and whitney and romi hooking up again…huh? and why? i’m not sure why romi would want to go back down that road again, because it didn’t seem like she could handle whitney the first time.
rachel’s situation is very upsetting and frightening. i’m mad at whitney for not paying attention to her until she was at a crisis point and suicidal. i hope rachel got the help she needed, during the show and after the show.
I feel like Rachel wants Whitney, bad, but she can’t admit it. (Following her to SF? Constantly waiting for hook-up opportunities? Getting fucked up on pills and mixing it with drinks to get Whitney’s attention?) Whitney can sense it, and that’s why she was keeping her distance. Well, of course, that, and the fact that Rachel won’t acknowledge that she has a pill/alcohol/addiction problem. Part of Rachel’s problem IS Whitney as well.
Can we talk about Romi’s hair at the end of the episode? Did I dream that weave?
By the way, I wonder why no one has commented on Francine’s relationship with this Kristhianne(sp?) She seems to have moved at the same rate that Sajdah did with Chanel. One episode they’re just meeting, then the next she has a lower third as “Francine’s Girlfriend”
I only read the recaps but I think Romi’s hair has evolved into a sentient character in and of itself.
does that mean her hair gets a lower third and they’re gonna go into that one room and talk about feelings and stuff?
maybe that will be chaiken’s next show.
The Real L Word Haircuts.
I’m really rather surprised Romi’s hair hasn’t received a lower third.
romishairdottumblrdotcom.
Should probably happen.
“One episode they’re just meeting, then the next she has a lower third as “Francine’s Girlfriend”
true. i wondered about this too. i think the reason a lot of people aren’t discussing francine’s uhauling ridiculousness as much as sajdah’s is because for the majority of episodes francine was seen directly in relation to claire and most of her drama involved claire. now francine is seen more independently of claire. and i also think more screentime is given to sajdah then francine.
yeah…francine+chef… NOT A FAN
francine hasn’t said anything about the chef though, so
i dunno i have a few questions about that
I hope you do an interview of Francine after this season. :)
But guys! Where the eff was CLAIRE in this episode??
she had vivian wash and brush her hair until it looked like a luscious lion’s mane
ifc doesn’t have time for that
WAIT CORI AND KACY I HAVE A BETTER IDEA WHY DON’T YOU JUST ASK CAES YOURSELVES?!?!?!??!?!?!!!!!! he seems nice enough, big of wang and generous of character.
this comment has been deleted because it breaks the rule of never to make fun of or criticize a woman’s innate physical appearance
LMAO at this recap. I WISH it were Frankie at the door. That dope.
if it weren’t for these super awesome recaps,
this show is so
DEPRESSINGGGGGG
I want a flipbook made of all the people who could possibly be knocking on Whitney’s door, that was pretty fantastic. Except… the Kool-Aid man doesn’t knock. He just bursts through your wall and yells “OH YEA!”
Everyone needs to stop wearing poodle sweaters on their heads. Stop it. Now.
That end recap of who was at the door was hilarious. But yeah, Stevie Wonder could have seen that Romi/Whitney hookup coming. Whitney suggestively smirks at Romi everytime she looks at her. Interesting how Kelsey had to beg Romi for sex, but Romi doesn’t hesitate to give it up to Whitney.
The “who is at the door” was completely, wonderful hilarious. And the “deplaning lesbians.” And the “just like jesus!” also excellent, possibly my fave, so many excellent goings-on here. and was this like a particularly jew-y recap, or am i being a crazy person?
i probably should have spent a couple more seconds thinking about how to phrase that question.
i don’t think i’m in any condition to be interacting with people at the moment, oh man.
maybe i was feeling really jewish this week
my gf also laughed at “deplaning lesbians,” it’s interesting to me when jokes i write are unexpectedly more funny to people than i imagined they’d be
Love the door montage, though I’m thinking that Real Players of the USWNT should be a show with Pinoe as the star of the show. The world needs more Pinoe gifs and pictures.

I give Kacy credit for not flipping out when Cori suggested sleeping with a man as a baby-making option. I think I would have walked out at that. What an incredible insult, not just to their relationship, but to Kacy’s butch ID.
I don’t think Cori was suggesting sleeping with a man, she was suggesting going back to their original idea of getting one of their male friends/a real person to donate sperm, as opposed to buying anonymous sperm from a sperm bank.
The best part of this week was the lack of Claire. She annoys the shit out of me. Sadly, I know her return is inevitable for the season finale.
By the way, I almost forgot to add that the Golden Girls intro was the second best thing ever. This recap was bookended by the best things ever. Just. The Best.
thank you
This is why I love AS:
1) because one moment you can say
“This is like Our Generation’s Problem — we’re all crying, we all need therapy, and we can’t afford it.”
which are some of the realest words I’ve ever felt
2) and the next you can say
“Learning Japanese I think she’s learning Japanese I really think so. Learning Japanese I think she’s learning Japanese I really think so.”
which is just funny
3) then
“I love how Francine’s got her sunglasses perched up on her head like that. You never know when sun’s gonna hit.”
another funny statement
4) before
“Wow I am really tired of writing this recap”
so honest.
5) and finally ending on Romi after the most magnificent montage ever.
Maybe it’s just the vino or brandy talking but i think i’ve finally realized i love AS so much because it’s REAL. and not like Real L Word real, like actually real. honest, funny, good stuff. anyways thanks friends
This is why I love AS:
1) comments like this one
This show: proving that even if you come out and introduce your parents to your brand-spankin-new ubergay lifestyle, the first thing your mom will mention will still be the holes in your jeans. “You bought them like that? Why would you pay for jeans that already need to be patched?”

Did not see the ending coming at all. Romi and Whitney is a match-made in selfish bitch heaven.
Maybe it was the vodka I had earlier but WHAT? I did laugh tho.
hilarious recap and a special shoutout to the alt-text on the photos I completely lost it at “we know”
I am very glad on how Kelsey handled the breakup with Romi. I will give her a high five for that. However, I do think that Romi hooking up with Whitney at the end of the episode was very tacky.
I have been so far out of the loop. we can post gifs now?
Riese, you’re awesome for doing these hilarious and accurate recaps :)
This is how my co-worker and I feel about the Miz Mixter situation….

just quickyl wanna point out to you that your pic does show the name and phone number of one of the ppls involved in the chat… prob not intended?
I wish my ears were working correctly when I thought I heard Kacy say “I have to go tickle my wife.” That would be a hilarious way to end a fight.
Can I just say that I freaking love Sarita!? The fact that she thought the “gay-friendly” church would be Homo Central and everyone would “look” gay cracked me up! Well, that and the Jack Daniels on the plane. MOAR RITA.
still can’t get over the fact that this episode was 100% Claire-less. Woe is me.
LOL at the door pictures. I didn’t even see the episode (because why the fuck would I watch this show?) but that made me laugh. It also made me feel extremely conflicted. I would open the door for almost all of those people… Santana, Emily, the Kool-Aid guy. But I think I’d go with Megan Rapinoe. Win!
I just googled Megan Rapinoe and she has come out publicly. Not that I didn’t “know,” but this makes me happy. I love her. She’s so great.
asdrkslkskdfj megan rapinoe has come out?!
Links! I beg you. Cuz I didn’t come across such Google wonder.
Someone tell Romi to get over herself. Kelsey has the right to a frikking drink with her family once in a while without her dominator of a girlfriend making her feel guilty about it.
It’s good to have support from your other half, but geez its ROMI with the drinking problem. Take a fecking chill pill. ugh I HATE THAT WOMAN, I CANT STAND HER FAKE ATTITUDE. and then she bitches to whitney about her.
she’s meant to b your girlfriend romi, not your personal bitch.
i am officially taking this stupid show way-too-seriously
Somehow I knew that Romi and Whitney were going to happen again, somehow. Honestly, I’m sure Kelsey was sick enough of Romi yelling at her that I don’t know if she’ll care.
That’s probably going to be awkward though. How long did she even wait, a few hours?
Rachel made me so sad ):
I wish I could give her a hug
I cried like a baby three times this episode..damn you Ilene! Cori/Kasey, Saj/her mom, and Whitney/Rachel. As much as I believe some things are scripted, those three moments felt very real.
Favorite LifetimeTV moments: When Cori & Kasey are arguing and Cori walks off, Kasey’s instant reaction was ‘I have to check on my wife’. In that moment, it was about her relationship and not about filming a reality show. I love how Kasey is always very aware of how her partner feels and seem to always know how to respond in a way that gets her point across but not alienate her partner. Next favorite moment was when Saj & her mom where in bed talking and Saj just starts crying and lays in her mom’s arms. You are never to old to need your mom and get that validation that no matter what you choose to do with your life, your mom is always there to give you a hug and a kiss. I am a grown married mother of two and there are so many times I just want that affirming love from my mother. Maybe it’s because my relationship with my mom is so not what I need it to be, that’s why that moment struck a cord
I can’t believe it’s been a whole week and no one’s pointed out that Romi looks exactly like Boy George now.
She totally does look like Boy George!
Ok aside this episode being super sad and really emotional, I’m crying laughing at this recap. So insanely funny! x
