Then I'd take more and that would be enough to maybe get me back to sleep for two more hours. Then I'd be wide awake again.

Jayde unsubtly uses an engagement party as an appropriate place to pester Brody about where their relationship is going, and Brody maturely explains that it's not the right place. And then later he makes plans to dump her. What's with these young girls wanting to get married like there's a stipulation in their trust funds that requires marriage for them to get the money or something?


Spencer confronts Heidi (who was apparently waiting in the foyer for him to call her name?) about the pregnancy test he found. He actually sounds reasonable at the end of the talk, but then you remember that earlier in this episode he passive-aggressively hounded Heidi about this in front of a small child.


Aww, Justin (Bobby) has to pretend to like Kristin here. For the script!


Justin (Bobby) and Kristin enter into a mature, loving, communicative, all-the-way relationship...or whatever. Let's hope next season she cheats first.

Obviously, Heidi is not pregnant, and this is all just contrived drama for the show. Still, it's kinda fun thinking about the possibility of a Pratt brat with an Oedipus complex.

In other news, Kristin went to Vegas with Stacie-The-Bartender to get away from the guys in L.A. However, she discovered that douchiness is not specific to any one city, and was not impressed with the guys she met on her trip.


So she called JustinBobby, and he drove down to Vegas to take a shower.


JustinBobby made a very astute observation when he said, "Everything happens for a reason." (He means that everything happens because the producers tell them what they should do, right?) He, Kristin, and Stacie-The-Bartender all went to a strip club, where Kristin and STB made out.


The next morning, Kristin and JustinBobby discussed the events at the strip club, however, most of it was censored out, and it's incredibly difficult to infer what transpired. From what I can deduce, one of two things happened: A stripper took a shit on Kristin or a stripper went down on Kristin.

Clearly, the most contrived storyline is Heidi and Spencer's: it's like an art form of its own at this point, in which the creation of "problems" in their marriage seems to uncover actual problems. For instance: Heidi's baby fever (in the previous clip) is obviously a gimmick, but you can see her getting confused about the blurred lines of reality.

Then there's Jayde Nicole. She's become a celebrity in her own right, making it into gossip columns for her temper and her physical and legal fight with Joe Francis. Last week, she slapped Kristin, which given Jayde's history (and the fact that the cameras catching the drama were hand-held and not set up on a tripod), suggests that the event was from the heart, and not from the minds of producers. This meet-up with Kristin however, was strictly orchestrated. Judge Judy would not approve of going to talk to someone who assaulted you about how you hate them.


I find Jayde to be the best possible addition to this show, as she appears to be a bit unhinged, making her a perfect candidate for reality television. Maybe The Hills will stop being so boring. But who am I kidding? I'd still watch it, even if the entire 30 minutes was spent on JustinBobby picking his toes.

Of course, the doctor's appointment was really just a (fake) consultation, and Spencer didn't go through with it. What's the deal with his mustachioed friend Charlie? Why has he been cast in the Fred Mertz role?


Brody's girlfriend Jayde solidified her rep as a belligerent, violent shit-stirrer by rounding up her posse and getting in Kristin's face.


And now for fashion and chivalry with JustinBobby.


Are charm bracelets and Members Only jackets without shirts the new black?

Remember her? She was friends with Lauren in high school, and then, after Lauren gave her a diamond bracelet for her birthday, she boinked Brody, even though Lauren was sorta kinda dating him. That dramz was the first conflict that Lauren had with Spencer, since he set Jen and Brody up. So Jen was a catalyst in the whole Lauren/Spencer war. Well, not really a catalyst, since she actually changed a lot with the help of a colorist and plastic surgeon.


I have to say that the puppies that Spencer bought Heidi for her birthday are incredibly cute.


I love Lo's response to Audrina's bullshit drama.


I also love that JustinBobby claims to be super into Kristin, yet he thinks her name is Kirsten.

Stephanie's approach to the intervention was interesting...


...and not at all successful. I love how she says "don't bullshit a bullshitter," because that's what Anna Nicole said to her cousin Shelly in the Christmas special episode of her reality show.


Jayde and Brody are working hard for their own story line. BTW, in case you didn't know, "yelling" = "angrily talking."


Is that Joe Francis in the scene? I guess they were friends before all the assault charges and lawsuits.

BTW, Tom Green doesn't warrant an identifying caption on MTV anymore? The least they could've done was put something Hills-y there like, "Tom, Brent's Friend."


At the intervention, Holly ordered herself a giant margarita on the rocks. Can you blame her? Besides, I still think that Spencer was the most embarrassing person at that party, considering his hat. However, I do think he's being incredibly nice and understanding here, and actually is making some sense.


Next week on The Hills, Jayde reveals her Canadian roots.

Spencer kept up his Mr. Wilson subplot with Enzo the Menace.


Check out JustinBobby's ink. It's like "Thug Life" for soccer fans.


BTW, Brody was turning 26, not 6.


I liked his balloons though.

Last week, when Heidi Montag guest co-hosted The View, she discussed her desire to have children and Spencer's desire to remain childless. Little Enzo is supposed to provide some kind of comic relief in the situation, but it kind of just comes off as one of those desperate casting decisions to boost ratings by adding a young kid (e.g. Olivia on The Cosby Show, Oliver on The Brady Bunch, and Chrissy Seaver (who aged six years in between seasons) of Growing Pains).


Spencer's sister Stephanie had the most intelligent statement of the entire series so far when she advised Heidi to not try to fix problems in her marriage by bringing a baby into it.

In the clip above, Roxy sits down for an interview with Kelly Cutrone for a position at Peoples Revolution. Although Whitney landed her the interview, Roxy comically talks shit on Whitney ("She like wears yellow"), whom she's known since the seventh grade. During the interview, Roxy also claims to have worked for Rachel Zoe for "a little bit," which Rachel denies, Tweeting, ""she never worked for me..lying is so not chic."

In fact, a lot of Tweeting has been going on about Roxy by the faux-reality set. Just yesterday, Stephanie Pratt went on a Twitter tirade about her, unable to limit her views to 140 characters, saying, "She was [my best friend] since 7th grade until she stabbed me in the back for her chance at fame. I tried to bring her on the hills with me but she wanted to be a 'star' so she went behind my back and made arrangements 2 b whits bff."

Roxy was actually the sidekick for Stephanie's very first appearance on The Hills, when the two girls confronted Lauren Conrad in a club to yell at her for being "mean" to Heidi.

Stephanie's assertion about Roxy wanting to be a "star" seem to be true, at least according to this E! News story from two years ago. After Roxy's one appearance on The Hills, her mother actually spoke to the media, who actually bothered to report on it, saying, "Roxy will only appear in one episode of The Hills even though they wanted her to do another one. [She] appeared as a favor. I'm pretty sure she's not going to do any more. They kind of pigeonhole you into stuff there."

The City's Roxy Olin Caught In A Lie [Radar]
The Hills Drama Just Keeps Getting Better [E!]

OK, so in the first scene, Audrina, Lo and Stephanie are talking about how they're going to go to Heidi and Spencer's "welcome back" party. Steph obviously has her new nose here.


See?


However, at the party, she has her old nose.


In her next scene, she's talking to Audrina about the events of the party, and she has her new nose again.


But then at Frankie's birthday party, her old nose returns.


BTW, how old was Frankie turning? 48?


After Frankie's party, Stephanie's new nose again, on the scene.


But only time will tell if it will stay.

Both in the trailer for the upcoming season of The Hills (which premieres September 29) and additional advertising spots, Kristin has been billed as "the bitch," literally, in this marquee style ad:

For her part, Kristin says she believes that people use the term refer to women who speak their minds, so she doesn't mind it all that much.

The description for the Brushstroke Sheath Dress, "side pockets lend a chic vibe." If batteries are included with the vibe, then it might actually be worth the $50.

If You Answered Mostly A's: You Are The Party Girl
You are the mess of the series: you're always drunk, and when you're not drunk, you're crying on the phone to the boyfriend you are currently cheating on on national television, all while acting like he's not going to find out. You like to dance, drink, and party, but when the fun is over, you typically collapse into a ball of low self-esteem. You're a tragic character, as you will ride your wave of notoriety to many bar openings and Girls Gone Wild hosting gigs across the nation. Eventually, you'll either go through a very public rehabilitation phase or you'll sign up to win Bret Michaels' heart on Rock of Love 87: Roses And Thorns.

If You Answered Mostly B's: You Are The Bitch
Somewhere along the way, you realized that being the villain was more interesting than being the hero, so here you are, the biggest bitch in town. You're the kind of person who lives to make other people feel small and stupid; you don't always come right out and insult them, but you have a manipulative way of making people feel as though they'd better get on your good side, or else. The bonus? The audience loves you. Or they love to hate you. Either way, you're one of the most popular—or at least one of the most notorious—characters on the show.


If You Answered Mostly Cs: You're The Airhead
You're the Kelly Kapowski of the show: you're very pretty, and you're usually very nice, and you mean well, but you are often edited to appear to be as dumb as a box of rocks. This is not to say that you are dumb, but the editing room certainly makes it seem that way. You're often shown gazing at the ceiling for no reason whatsoever, and you start most of your conversations with "Um," or "What?" as if you've just been snapped out of a daze. Your plotlines are always boring and forced, and nobody really cares what happens to you on the show unless the Party Girl or the Bitch swoops in to add some excitement here or there. It doesn't really matter, though, because you're beautiful and famous and rich, and everything will work out just fine.


If You Answered Mostly Ds: You Are An Ear Of Corn
You are an ear of corn. How did you even take this quiz? You're pretty damn special! Someone should get you a reality show of your own! We could call it, "It's Amaizing!" Get it? Where are you going? Oh, you're too good for this now? Fine. You know what? You're the bitch, ear of corn. Yeah, I heard what you just said. Whatever! Whatever!


If You Answered Mostly Es: You Are The Famewhore
This little reality show gig is just a stop on the express train to super stardom, bro. You can't help it if everyone wants to see how you live your awesome life! You're so famous that eventually the show will revolve around how famous you are, and everyone will be talking about the greatness that is you. Your face will be everywhere, and people around the world will wonder how they ever lived without you. You know that when your 15 minutes will be up, nobody will care anymore. But you're determined to stretch that 15 minutes for as long as you can, and you will be as obnoxious as possible to keep your fame alive, even if it means turning the entire world against you. All publicity is good publicity, right?


If You Answered Mostly Fs: You Are The Voice Of Reason
Often enough, you supply the only "reality" on the show. You call you friends out on their bs, and stay out of the fights when things get too intense. You love your friends and your family and you try to keep a low profile. Unfortunately, you are too boring for reality television, and eventually you will either fade away or be forced to start taking on the qualities of The Bitch or The Party Girl in order to keep up with your friends (and their paychecks). You have to ask yourself: which reality do I prefer? If it's television, get ready to sacrifice a bit of yourself in order to play, well, yourself.

Thanks for taking our quiz! It's always nice when people stop being polite and start getting real.

Earlier: Which Reality Show Stereotype Are You?

• Question 1: What's Your Idea Of The Perfect First Date?
• a. You, baby! Let's get it started! Is my boyfriend Devin going to see this, though? Devin! I love you! This means nothing, I swear! NOTHING!
• b. Anyone lucky enough to date me is going to have a perfect first date, period.
• c. Well, he would have to be like, really cute? And like, we would go to somewhere like, nice? Um, and like, it would be romantic?
• d. I am an ear of corn.
• e. Whatever, you know? I just go with things, man. If love happens, it happens, but I can't force it, you know? It's just whatever the energy of the universe wants, bro, you know? Whatever the vibe happens to be. You can read more about it in next month's Playboy magazine.
• f. Something really simple and sweet. I don't ask for much. Just good times with good people.

• Question 2: What Is Your Best Quality?
• a. I can drink anyone under the table! Want to see?
• b. Why don't you ask your boyfriend? He seemed to enjoy several of my qualities last night.
• c. Um...I like a lot of different things? Like, um...I like unicorns? And once, I saw Lindsay Lohan at a party and I was like, "Oh my god, you're Lindsay Lohan!" and she was like, "Yeah, I am." And so like...I can identify people, you know? Like, that's pretty good, I think?
• d. I am an ear of corn.
• e. I mean, you know, what can I say? I know how to get shit done, bro. I haven't had any complaints, in any areas, if you know what I'm saying. That was a sexual innuendo. Just wanted to make sure you picked that up. Are you filming on the left? Film on the right, bro. You know my right is my better side. Although both sides look good in my upcoming photo shoot for People magazine.
• f. I'm a good friend, or at least I try to be. I could always improve, I guess.

• Question 3: Who Is Your Role Model?
• a. Megan Fox!! She is so hot and crazy!!! I am too! SPRING BREAK! OWW!
• b. Get me a mirror and I'll show you, asshole.
• c. Rolls? Like...for bread? You can be a model for bread?
• d. I am an ear of corn.
• e. Jesus, who put me on this earth to be great. I actually discuss this in next week's issue of Star. You should buy a copy, bro. Buy one for your friends, too. It's gonna change your life, man.
• f. My parents. They have a really great marriage and they've always taught me that it's love and laughter that are important, not material things.

• Question 4: What Is Your Typical Saturday Night Like?
• a. If I remember it, it wasn't any good!
• b. You have to ask because you'll never be invited. That's so sad for you! Maybe you should go back to Nebraska or wherever it is you came from. I hear the cows on the farm are always looking for new friends.
• c. Um...Saturday is the day that comes after the day you stop working but only at night because like, you work during the day, but then like, the weekend technically starts at night, right? Why is it called Saturday? Did someone get sat on? Satted on? How do you say it?
• d. I am an ear of corn.
• e. I'd walk you through it bro, but it's too much for you to handle. Usually it just involves me and my beautiful girl being the most famous people alive, trying to get the haters out of our way. We can't help it if everyone wants to be like us. I mean, we're perfect, you know?
• f. I typically go out to dinner with some good friends and then maybe out dancing or for a few drinks. Sometimes if there's a good band in town, we'll go to a show. No big deal.

• Question 5: Where Do You See Yourself In 10 Years?
• a. Famous, gorgeous, and loving life! And I want to give a shout out to my fellow Coyotes, my man Devin who I love so so much, no matter what they say, baby! Now who wants to do some shots?!
• b. Somewhere you'll never be. I'd say something like, "But I'll never forget you," except, well, I totally will.
• c. Ten is five plus five!
• d. I hope to be the head of an international research company. Also, I will still be an ear of corn.
• e. Just turn on your television, baby, and I'll be there, no doubt!
• f. Happy. That's the most important thing, right?

Stay tuned for the results!

Because I kind of hate that." — Hugh Dancy, who plays a man with Asperger's in new movie Adam. [NY Mag]
