This week we’re back at STD Manor where Tailor Made (the 100 pound schemer with bad hair plugs) is gloating about his role in getting Cheezy eliminated last week. Buddha confronts Tailor Made about stabbing Cheezy in the back, and things quickly evolve into a shoving match–with Buddha doing all the shoving. Tailor Made suddenly stands up, curses at him, and starts waiving his hands, triggering Buddha to go ballistic and throw his OJ in his face and start man-handling him. Clearly Tailor Made ratcheted things up with the intent of getting Buddha in trouble, and immediately went up to New York’s room to tell on him. New York meets with Buddha and tells him he has to leave–I expect that the producers made her cut him for business reasons and she would have kept him around if she had a choice. I can’t believe that clear front-runner Buddha allowed himself to be manipulated like that.

Next, the guys are given some boxing equipment and told to form tag teams. No one wants Tailor Made to be on their team. They head over to Glendale Fighting Club, where it is revealed that they will be fighting some female kickboxers. The women are clearly outmatched physically, but they are extremely fast and well-trained. The Entertainer gets turned on by getting knocked around. Wolf is next and gets totally overwhelmed. Pretty also takes a licking, as does Punk. Next are It and Midget Mac, who takes a lot of head shots. Tailor Made is almost as skinny as the women. He more or less runs the whole time. Next 20 Pack and Mr. Wise. Wise stays in the whole time, and actually gets knocked down! 20 Pack is furious that he was deprived of even getting a chance to fight. The challenge was about defending yourself, and not fighting, so the guys didn’t throw any punches. Most of them were pretty weak self-protectors.

Back at the mansion, Wise apologizes to 20 Pack and they resolve their issues. Tailor Made is not pleased at this and determines that he will find someone else to target. Tailor Made attempts to draw the other Mama’s Boys into his schemes, but they have little patience for him. The Mama’s Boys (plus Wise) have dinner with Sister Patterson. She’s as big a schemer as Tailor Made and gets him to admit he will be her eyes and ears. Wise refuses to do the same and is asked to leave the table when he will not be a rat.

The next day a note from New York calls for Wise and 20 Pack to get ready for a swimming date. Tailor Made suspects that Pretty is gay and runs up to New York’s room to snitch on him. New York is impressed (rather than repulsed) by his snitching, characterizing it as “looking after her”. New York leaves for her date at the spa and refuses to get in the mud pool. She will eat lunch, though, and tells the guys that Tailor Made had been snitching to her. She laughs when 20 Pack naively asserts that back-stabbing is unattractive. New York asks to spend some time with 20 Pack, who actually does not kiss her when she asks him to do so–what an idiot–maybe he is the gay guy (or perhaps he simply has good taste).

Back at the mansion, Twenty Pack wants to call Tailor Made out. He tells Pretty about Tailor Made telling her that he was gay. Wise wants to punch Tailor Made but thinks better of it. He gets in Tailor Made’s face, and Tailor Made spits at him. In the real word, Tailor Made would have gotten his teeth knocked out. Lucky for him, the other guys and a producer were there to stop him. Of course, Tailor Made goes up to New York’s room to put spin on it. New York cannot believe that he spit in his face–she views that as pure cowardice and yells at him before throwing him out.

Pretty throws Tailor Made out of his room by throwing his stuff out onto the patio. He is furious but does nothing but flail about and threaten “war”. [SK: Oooooh! War!]

Next is the elimination, where New York is angry that the guys are self-selecting themselves for elimination by being violent. New York commends Wise for controlling himself and not “whooping Tailor Made’s ass” when he clearly deserved it. New York makes out with Wise in front of everyone and disgusts Sister Patterson. Tailor Made is forced to apologize and gets it with both barrels. She forces him to turn around so she doesn’t have to look at his “pig” face.

New York sends 20 Pack home because he is merely a “purse holder” who will be a girlfriend to her. She does not like that he only wants to take baby steps. New York admonishes that there will be no more fighting. Of course, the producers would not let her cut Tailor Made. He is the type of character who takes reality shows to the next level. I know I’ll keep watching! [SK: Better you than me!]
