RECAP: Little Women LA “Beauty Brawl” [Season 4, Episode 2]
Little Women: L.A. begins with Elena seeking to have her tattoos removed. Terra is there for moral support, and both of the women struggle in their pencil skirts to make themselves comfortable in the LaserAway exam room. They discuss the motocross bloodbath, and the argument that followed the forced dirt baths. Terra comments that Elena should have beaten Jasmine senseless with her wig, and Elena reminds us of her eye shadow launch party, and her decision to freeze out Jasmine and her wig. On a brighter note, Elena will be tattoo-free in three years.
We join Briana and Matt, who are walking in a park. Briana assures us that Matt is looking for a job every single day, but when he’s free, she wants to be spend every single broke second with him. Briana wanted Matt out of her hair last week, but evidently decided that Matt is less annoying than Christy calling her face ugly. Matt calls Christy butt-hurt, but Briana just wants to focus on their impoverished happiness. Briana and Matt have been married several months, but now Briana wants to plan a wedding.
We check in with Jasmine and Tonya, who are having a spa day, and discussing the palette party diss. They swap low self-esteem war stories, and Jasmine tearfully defends her Kim Zolciak wig. Elena believes that Jasmine is a copy-catter, but Jasmine assures us that being called ‘Baldy’ would send anyone into “bitch stole my look” territory. Tonya thinks that Jasmine and Elena should talk, and come to mini blonde bombshell coexistence.
Terra and Christy meet to rehash the motocross smackdown, and Terra explains that Briana’s sister wants to talk, and is meeting them for lunch. Christy isn’t thrilled until she realizes that the scoop will be about loser Matt, which causes her to almost clap her hands with glee, at the hot tea possibilities. Terra believes that meeting with Tiana will help them to understand that Briana has withdrawn from everyone. Briana’s sister, Tiana shows up, and dishes about the family’s view on Matt. Bri-ana and Ti-ana have opposite stories when it comes to the family dynamic, surrounding the controversial deadbeat Matt. Tiana labels Matt a sociopath, and Terra dishes that a background check on Matt turned up a plethora of juicy charges.
Terra wants to give Matt a shot, but thinks that he is disrespectful to women. They agree that Briana is settling for a dirtbag loser, and Tiana spills that Briana is excusing domestic violence. Christy shares that she was once in an abusive relationship, and decides that she needs to step in and intervene. The family wants an apology, and Tiana hopes that the ladies can persuade Briana to talk to them again.
We hop over to Jasmine’s where we learn that her husband Chris has been accepted into a railroad training program, and has passed a challenging entry test. There are no local jobs, so Chris has to work out of state, which Jasmine finds devastating. Jasmine wants another baby, but Chris thinks they should wait until they can pay for a doctor.
Speaking of babies, Christy and Todd are starting the adoption process. Christy thinks that being small may thwart their chances. They are choosing to go the foster to adopt route, and hope that their chunky stair-climbing struggles won’t cause them to flunk out of the screening process.
Terra and Joe are house hunting, and check out a cute $800k place. The couple bickers about having a child, and decide against the house. We switch gears, and join Christy and her mom, who are shopping, and chatting about houses and Briana’s family drama. Christy is fond of her mom, because she can screw in lightbulbs and can reach junk on the top shelf. Christy comments that she blames Matt for turning Briana into a disgusting bitch, but she does care deeply for the bitch, so she hopes to be able to help her.
We jump to the night of the palette-party, and Elena is excited about the product launch. The women gossip about Briana’s family and Matt, and Christy suggests a Maury-esque surprise reception. Tonya passes on the crap-fest, and goes for a cocktail.
Briana and Matt arrive, and they all play with the palettes. Christy, Tonya and Terra intentionally jabber about family problems a foot from Briana’s head, and hope that the disgusting bitch eavesdrops. Terra and Christy approach Briana, and spill what Tiana told them. Briana is not happy, and she and Matt claim that Briana’s family is evil incarnate. Matt almost pukes at the injustice, clenches his fists, and proclaims that the family will never see their future children.
Her family accused Matt of being hot for midgets, and the word “fetish” is thrown around. Terra labels Matt controlling, but Matt and Briana dispute Tiana’s story. The women wish that Matt would just go barf in the bathroom, so that they could speak to Briana alone.
Christy comments that Matt is influencing Briana, and Terra is discouraged because Briana is pissed, Matt is about to explode, and this confrontation is a big snoozy failure.
Next week, relationships are challenged, and Briana’s deadbeat drama continues. Don’t miss it!
