HT Episode 2: The Hard Times of LWoww & G.T.L. Berger

March 31st, 2011

Pinkerton gets invaded by guidos and juiceheads when cousin Vinny drops in! And this ain’t no one-trick-pony – the plot punches along as Vinny gets down and dirty teaching R.J. how to get laid!

If you haven’t seen the episode yet, watch it right here. And the Jersey Shore/Hard Times mash-up continues below!

First off, you know Vinny’s got the goods when he can get his auntie to play the xylophone on his “rock-hard abs”, as she says. Then it gets creepy when they all start dancing and grinding and fist pumping together in the tiny bathroom….

Why are they cramped in that little bathroom? Oh yeah, we get the DL on the Bergers. Daddy Berger lied about having a job for the last two years, and the family tapped out their savings. Now they’ve lost the house, so the parents moved to Splits-ville.

But Mommy Berger asked cousin Vinny to help her move into their apartment. And he decides to help R.J. get his dream girl. But he has to contend with fighting off R.J.’s nightmare girl Lily, which leads us to rule number one: be nice to the ladies!

You gotta love Vinny – as horny and gross as Lily is (especially channeling Snooki with her beehive) he still calls her his little LWoww. Aww…

Rule number two is confidence. Vinny ain’t leaving Pinkerton High until R.J. asks out Jenny to Lasagna Farm for dinner. It doesn’t hurt R.J.’s sitting in a SAHWEET ride when he asking either.

Rule number three is looks. R.J. is totally against this, but Miles gets his tan on turning all around and worshiping Vinny like a God. And I’m not going to get into how pitiful the weight-lifting scene was. Guys out there, please tell me you can bench press more….

Of course, Vinny isn’t the only one in Pinkerton with moves. Max finds out about Jenny’s date and decides to pump himself up too. It doesn’t matter he’s dating his silver medal Robin, he wants Jenny and decides the best way to win her back is by ruining her date and making as ass out of himself.

Jenny, the only sane one of the bunch, decides to smooth things over with Max by making friends with Robin. Turns out Robin has been dying to use her sharpened claws to dethrone Jenny as the high school queen. So much for years of cherished friendship.

Which brings us to lesson four: bros don’t let it come to blows. Watching Vinny diffuse a situation without his fists prompts R.J. to….wait for it….hug Max. Yes. Hug him. Good thing a thug was there to break up the fight and knock Max out with a salad bowl.

R.J. managed to continue his date with Jenny in peace, which is good news. This was Jenny’s first real normal date, and she got to share it with R.J. Awwww……..

Next week, Paris Hilton comes to down. Somehow, I don’t think she’ll give the same advice as Vinny.
