You Brotards Better WORK It - Bromance
Break out the bedazzler, bro.
This week on Bromance: bedazzled betrayal, bathing bunnies, and boring banter. That's right, it's time to hug it out and answer the real question of this series: Why the hell is Chris P. still on this show?
Brody attempts to bring the funny this week (after the world's most boring experience in television last week) by bringing the boys to a spa and announcing they'll be hawking some ridiculous denim from his fashion line, BJ - hey, it stands for Brody's Jeans. The boys don't know it, but it's all a big prank. Wow, awesome fake company name aside, this is about the stupidest prank ever prunked.
But they did wax Luke's chest, which was great. The first time I saw this scene in The 40 Year Old Virgin.
The guys, so eager to please the B-man, kvetch privately about how crappy the jeans are, but Femi actually refuses to wear the skin-tight Jeff pants and tells Brody so. Way to man-up, Femi. And with nary an animal effect.
SIDEBAR: Did anyone else puke a little in their mouth over the I Love You Man commercial? What have you done, Bromance, what have you done?!
After the red carpet of shame, the boys head over to Brody's pad. Confronted with a Playmate of the Year, the boys all have a different approach. Chris is smooth and attentive, Femi is suave and chill, Luke is a fumbling freak, and Alex suggests that beautiful women are morons. *Record scratch.*
The Playmates inform Brody that Chris is the least threatening... I mean the winner of the competition, and they frolic in the hot tub. It is Chris' every fantasy come true. How sweet, the little guy finally gets a wish fulfilled!
But more important things are to come: elimination by sushi. Over a romantic sushi dinner, wasabi's not the only spice on the menu. The four guys snipe openly about each other's lameness (and this "bromance" that Alex and Luke supposedly have been embroiled in the whole time despite editing on all previous eps not showing much of this at all).
In the end, Brody decides that Femi was ballsy for skipping the jeans, that Chris may just be the token Asian he needs to complete his crew, and that Luke has been an overall strong competitor. But Alex has played hard-to-get one too many times, and his ride on the BJ express is over. Sigh. Another bro bites the dust!
