Good Morning America ran a preview of tonight's episode and the folks at ABC News were clearly excited that this week's ridiculous stunt involved the actors wearing elaborate prairie costumes. Though it's pointed out that the polygamists in Colorado City, AZ don't like outsiders, apparently they'd be willing to eat out at a local restaurant and talk loudly about the teenager's impending marriage. Luckily, several women step in to help the girl and unlike last week, anchor John Quinones doesn't attribute it to "one thing that's foolproof: A woman's tears." Clip at left.

In the clip at left, two groups of actors pose as fraternity and sorority members hazing a pledge, tying them up, insulting them, and pouring alcohol down their throats. Hidden cameras capture onlookers intervening to help the guys, but not the girls ... until one girl starts crying. As host John Quinones explains, there's "one thing that's foolproof: A woman's tears."

Today, Good Morning America had a preview of the episode, which will air tonight. Rather than simply exploring how the friends would feel about the age difference, producers complicated the situation by making it seem that the young Irish man only wanted to marry the older woman to get a green card. Here's the bigger question: What would you do if one of your best friends lied to you and made you cry on national TV? Clip at left.

In the clip at left, two actors, Brigitte and John, sit at a bar pretending to be on a date. While Brigitte is in the bathroom, John pours a powder in her drink. While, as anchor John Quinones says, what's frightening is that this happens in real life, it's unlikely this exact scenario would happen, since no human has ever responded to his date saying she feels ill by saying, "I have a pool at my house." The terribly written skit is performed in front of a group of guys and a middle-aged woman, and you can probably guess who intervenes and tells Bridgitte she's been drugged.

As pointed out on Shakesville, the word "rape" is never uttered during this segment. When Bridgitte and the woman cry and hug after it's revealed that it was just an act, Quinones says "Why are you crying? You're an actress!" He adds that Bridgitte was probably all worked up because she was drugged in real life two years ago, but "no one came to her rescue until after she had taken the drink."
