Indie's family re-creates Harry's crime; Haley's lawyer drops a bombshell that makes her doubt Dalton; Max gets a surprising phone call; Tai prepares to meet Hottie's other woman; Santiba receives upsetting news; Gabby questions Chris' brother.

“Hay and his friends held a man in fear for his life and forced him to get all his money out of ATMs while terrorizing him”

”People get robbed.  Why is it even a problem?”

[sempervivum]

So Haley hadn't previously been scared off Dalton by knowing about his crimes, but she's bawling and ready to pull the plug when she finds out he's apparently asking her for money to give to his other girlfriend, OK. 

Gabby's whole deal is just boring; I was hoping the brother was going to tell her Chris is already married/has a bunch of kids, just so she'd leave.

I was entertained by the range of reactions of Santiba's pals at their lady lunch- from the romantic who's egging her on, to the gimlet-eyed one who's telling her to slow her roll. At least she has a support system for when the inevitable happens.

Max dresses like Muskrat Stan from LAL; actually, Stan dresses younger than Max. Those skin-tight dress pants are what Max wears to attempt riding a scooter? 

I'm hating that Indie is apparently getting more screen time in the new season of LAL, based on the preview last night. These morons who have kids and allow them to be shown should be automatically eliminated as potential subjects for these shows, jmo.

Max considers everything about himself beautiful.  He wants THE WORLD to see every shaved-off hair trying to grow back.  I don't think he's okay mentally or intellectually.

Max gets a surprising phone call;

AND...."Max gets a surprising phone call," stands up his date...not even recalling how HURT he was when Tara ghosted him.  IDIOT!

[DeeReynolds]

I guess that it's true that 90's fashion is back considering Indie was rocking some Sinbad-style windbreaker pants. Yikes...

I was thinking about what to write and honestly I’m speechless!

Where do they find these people. 
 

Haley $500 is nothing. Think of the $25,000 you already sent!  Hello!

Max. He has a strange look and no home. Forget about the women and get a real job!  Support yourself!

Why don’t they give up on Indie and let her hit bottom a time or two.   Whole family of enablers.   That little girl is the one I worry about!

Santiba…there are no words. But wait a second.. I’ve got something!  “There’s no fool like an old fool”!

Gabby looks like the wedding is off the table. Go bother somebody else!

[Mothra]

I want to see Santiba naked, I really do.  Isn't she the one who had WLS and lost a million pounds?  Did she have excess skin removed?  Her body looks funny to me, and I want to see it naked.  I lost a lot of weight (on my own) and I want to tell you the unedited body is something to behold.  Even with sculpting surgery, those women on TV don't have bodies I'd want to spring on a suitor without lots of warnings and assurances that he loved me for my mind.  Think Grandma's wrinkly neck, only all over.

This really pissed me off - "Gee, it sucks to get ghosted.  Why don't I ghost this other person for no reason at all?"

Yeah, I assume porn is off the table since his partner/fuckbuddy kicked him out (and good for her). There is nothing appealing about Max, to me.

I find him actively unappealing.  I see him and my mind goes into a loop of "no, no, no, no,no, no . . ."  He's creepy, and he seems to have many unresolved issues related to having been heavier in his youth.  I can see him getting upset if someone missed a workout because they're sick or ate a muffin.  He has a need for approval that would make it difficult for a partner to raise any constructive criticism.  Okay, in a nutshell, he creeps me out to an extreme.

Max is extremely creepy I agree! And it goes beyond his looks (which are odd). It's his personality and mannerisms. As my grandma would say: "The boy ain't right." 

[SemiCharmedLife]

I think a lot of these people are in for a heartache.  Even more so than the original version of the show.  I can't see any of these "relationships" working, and that's probably a good thing.

Thank you, Buzz, for helping Haley wake up and smell the coffee.  Hopefully she will drop Dalton like a bad habit.

Chris' brother seems to have some sense.  Gabby is horrible.

I like Indie's mom and cute brother.  Indie is delusional.

This may have been a comical--maybe sarcastic comment, but I think it's 100% true, poor thang.

What the hell was up with Santiba's hair when she was talking with her mother? The way she had it parted you could see a bald spot on top of her head. The weird updo on either side that looked like wings?...ears?...only added to the hot mess.
