I am pretty skeptical about the whole Dues break up. This article says January - sort of - http://www.intouchweekly.com/posts/leah-messer-teen-mom-2-tr-dues-single-87220 and this one says February: http://radaronline.com/celebrity-news/leah-messer-breakup-teen-mom-splits-from-boyfriend-tr-dues/ But that said he's still been taking selfies in her house as recently as the past few weeks that someone posted here. I think the break up was for show for one of her baby daddies, or perhaps the courts.

Butterbody, love it! As for that picture wow I hadn't realized just how protective Jenelle was of her stomach area. Reminds me of Maci from one of the TM after shows or reunions where she was all curled into a ball on the couch. It's a tough call who's worst dressed there but I think I have to give it to Jenelle. WHAT is she wearing? It looks like some sort of torn flesh colored leggings with white booty shorts glued to the outside, plus a mysterious white thing glued to her right leg. To me the part on her right leg actually looks like a gauze dressing. Maybe she was practicing her medical skillz and forgot to take off that bandage?

I think what you're saying here is they should've had a secret/surprise elimination round for those left behind who didn't get picked for the drinking house.. well, the other drinking house. I love that idea! It would've been great to go in there with everyone left behind drinking their non-top-shelf liquor and spring an elimination round on them. Especially if they popped in right after Johnny's spiel. I actually found myself feeling pretty sorry for Ashley this episode. I think her self esteem has got to be practically zero for her to act the way she does.

Maybe it should have been worded "Her constant companionship" to better fit their situation.

Oh without a doubt, at least in my mind. Weren't we supposed to hear the results of the testing and the "truth will come out y'all" by now? (not from the health care people of course, HIPPA and all, but I thought Leah was going to release something)

Practically everything at Buca di Beppo is like that especially with a big group. Yes they pass around serving spoons with the plates, but you know people forget and use their own forks/spoons/etc. I'm not a fan. I guess it's silly since it's not that different from eating at home, but I once went there with a big group of coworkers and I was sort of near the end of the line on the food passing. Plenty of food left but it wasn't looking so good by the time it got to me. On the positive side if they did get real food other than just dessert they probably had enough leftovers to last a few days.

Oh yay, more people I've never seen before from AYTO, more drinking and yelling. Lame. I did enjoy Ashley calling out Jessica on her "who me? I'm just innocent over here giggling" moment. Can't stand people who act like that. I also enjoyed the one girl's horror show eye makeup during the soap challenge - I think it was Briana.

Enjoyed the last episode again. I like how the kids are so supportive with each other. But I have to ask who was that dingbat judge who kept talking about the "Salmon" instead of the actual ingredient, Arctic Char? She didn't look familiar. I couldn't believe no one corrected her and I swear the kid who made the dish even winced a little when she said it the second time. The food didn't look as good to me as it has in some previous episodes, but I also remembered to watch it when I wasn't hungry for a change. The one bummer thing is I kind of felt like the winner was pre-determined and wasn't going to lose no matter what she did in the final round. I mean they already had a ready-made winner's gift for her. Maybe they had something in back for all 4 just in case?

So the article says it's near her childhood hometown. Is that near where Corey is currently, and the girlses' school district? I hope so. I also really, really hope it's single story.

My theory is she wants the chance MEchelle had to defraud a neighbor while she's still young. So she can repeat the story over.and.over.and.over. Only problem is, isn't their closest neighbor a garbage dump? Who's she going to defraud?

Same here, but I couldn't help but think (again!) how freaking stupid it is to put her in T-ball and expect her to RUN if she's having trouble keeping her weight on with her crappy diet and all the walking she's doing.

OMG yuck!!! Next time I do any sort of donation for one of those troop collection bins they are getting as many panty hose as I can possibly afford. <shudder>

After catching up had some additional thoughts on Kail/Javi too. I still can't believe Kail and 2 other people couldn't figure out how to make cookies, or at least start over when they realized something looked really off. And it really pissed me off for some reason when they pretty much said "oh well, sorry Javi, we tried," tossed them in the trash and went out to dinner. Granted we know things were very strained between them, but picture that scene with a regular couple and it's pretty bad. Hopefully she tried again later. As for sending cookies to the troops I know there are some groups around my area who like to bake and are pros at doing this. They don't include any chocolate when it's hot but I think they do peanut butter cookies, sugar, snickerdoodles, etc. As for Javi, I don't doubt it's hot where he is. It's probably miserable, however, it is not PRISON.

I missed that! I did think something was off but I was so busy watching for the big dramatic cop scene that turned out to be nothing that I missed it. Should've rewound. I was thinking about all the stuff in that scene with Jenelle. Supposedly she made a comment about the preview that the shots of her in the bedroom were filmed at a completely different time, which makes sense - and I don't think they even showed those int he actual show, given that she was locked in the bathroom. And I think we can safely say MTV could drag in "leaaavvveee meeeee aloooone!" from any number of scenes or seasons. I'm wondering how much of that part was even real, other than Barb yelling at Dave.

I actually took it completely differently that maybe they are having fertility issues of some sort. Including possibly "issues" like say that pesky condom getting in the way heh.

No kidding. You know what always bothered me the most about their adoption talk? Well okay maybe not the most, but right up there, was how Mechelle starts every show with "and I delivered every one of them." What was the adopted child going to get? "Oh and by the way, this one showed up too"?

Hm. I guess I've been incredibly unlucky with pinkeye, in that case - then again I'm an adult who gets pinkeye at least every couple of years so I guess unlucky was a given. Mine always look way worse than that until after a couple days of eyedrops.

Me too! She did pretty well, made it to the final round but didn't win. Pretty good considering she got a ton of sabotages and the dishes were all unfamiliar to her. Guess it's too late for this season but wish we could request her back somehow.

I agree all the way around. I thought it was fun as long as they don't do it often at all. I was also thankful they didn't save it for some kind of Valentine's day nonsense. It was like 95 degrees here today and somehow this seemed like good trashy summer fun in cooking form. I'm curious if anything came of any of the pairings other than the first one, because they were just not good together. The others seemed like they might at least become friends, and I bet that one pair had an awesome trip to Australia even if nothing came of it after that. They sure had a heck of a time with the cooking though. Overcooked scallops, barely got the meatballs cooked, and wayyyy undercooked pastry dough.

Just a question since it's been brought up a few times - when people are talking pinkeye related to Zika they're talking actual pinkeye as in conjunctivitis, right? Because Izzy definitely doesn't seem to have that in any of his pictures. His top and bottom lids do seem pink or red a lot, though. I think of that as more of a symptom of allergies (or crying, but I don't think he's been crying in most of the pics). If he's allergic to dust the poor kid is screwed in that environment.

Well, or being pushed to toddle across the couch and land on the floor. Thank goodness he missed thunking his head on the coffee table. But true, at least Dave pays some attention to him.

She's probably freaking exhausted from being forced to walk and fall all the time. And now she's going to be RUNNING? Makes me angry. Of course all the kids have plenty to be stressed about, but physical exhaustion could be a major contributor when it comes to Ali. It's hard to deal with anything else when you're tired, weak, and in pain.

Unless CPS is far less busy there than they are here, they won't do anything. He's being fed, clothed, sent to school, and not physically abused. Although I agree with your sentiment 100%. I felt so awful for him especially in this episode.

Or TLC to get one step closer to getting everyone back on teevee.

Totally agreed @finnzup it's weird! Can't they just plate the food and then take turns tasting?
