Season 3 Discussion

[sainte-chapelle]

One thing I agree with Juan on is that Pao knows how to be a bitch.

Chantel is a bitch. Nobody needs to buy a 1000 dollar couch if they are living in a studio apartment they can barely afford. It's not the sister's fault. Look, buying a blow up mattress isn't a huge deal.  She didn't demand the bed. True, it probably won't fit in the apartment but still. It's not worth all this drama. And I do feel for the sister for getting all stressed. I know she's not the best but Chantel could have a better attitude, she is the guest. If she was going to be this annoyed, she should stay away for the weekend with her parents.

But Pedro’s sister is being an ungrateful bitch so I do not blame Chantel for being bitchy but Pedro is being an ass to Chantel and should have told Nicole to accept sleeping on the couch or get a hotel room but instead he is being an asshole to Chantel

These two will be in a never ending circle. The family Chantal will shit on Pedro with their nasty attitudes and in return Pedro will make a shitty move as retaliation. They will never get off this ride.

Sadly, you are right and Pedro’s idea of moving away from Chantel’s family is not a bad idea even though Chantel do not like being away from her family but Chantel’s family just reams on Pedro every chance they get, they are toxic!

I agree with all that think Pedro's sister is an ungrateful witch, she knows how to push Chantel 's buttons and takes every opportunity to do so.

I must be living in a strange world, because in my world, it’s well known and normal for immigrants to send money back to their families in poor countries. It’s also normal for adults, even married ones, to password protect their phones. Either this is for the cameras, or this PI is stupid as hell.

Chantel’s family still sucks.

I live alone and my phone is password protected and I have no idea way. Who is looking? My cat? This show is making me question my life choices.

Family Chantel is nuts and paranoid, but Pedro's sister knew exactly what she was doing riling up Chantel and her obnoxious laugh is like nails on a chalk board.

 

Azan has gotten better at acting. He's fairly convincing by now that he wants all this. High five, dude.

[Frozendiva]

Phones being password protected or finger print protected or face protected probably have to do with theft. You leave your phone in the bathroom and someone takes it, helps him/herself to your data plan, your identity, etc. Phones are not cheap.

Chantel is supposedly an adult isn't she?  Nothing was foisted on her.  If she didn't want it, she could have said no.  She didn't.  So if her money being her money is good for her, Pedro can do whatever he wants with his.  You talk about partnership, but then talk about Chantel being forced to do stuff by her parents.  Which is it?  She can't be in a partnership with Pedro, but still under her family's thumb now can she?  The partnership she's in IS with her parents, not Pedro.  That's the problem.  If she had not let her family be as intrusive and rude as they've been, maybe she would have a leg to stand on when it comes to Pedro's family.  

Their relationship isn't a true partnership.  It never was.  It was Chantel and her family vs. Pedro from Day 1.  That's fine with Chantel because it works to her advantage.  As long as she is still is functioning with her family as a unit rather than an independent person, I have no problems with Pedro or anything else he does with his family.  What's good for one is good for all.  Chantel is just too stupid to see what a hypocrite she and her family are.  They also lack a basic level of self-awareness.  Another case in point.  She doesn't want drama from Pedro's sister, but lets her idiot siblings say whatever they want.  And the previews show Winter talking shit about Nicole?  Sit your lame ass down Winter and get a life of your own.  Equal partnership isn't one-sided.  Nor is it asking for one's permission when the other isn't held to the same standard.  

Chantel had no money. The prenup covered her potential inheritance from her parents’ business. 

I think Chantel is someone who doesn’t like conflict and doesn’t want to disappoint anyone. So she lets her family steamroll her and eats her husband’s bad behaviour. So no, I disagree with you on all points. 

37 minutes ago, Brooklynista said:

No it's not her parents marriage but she still let them insult Pedro's family at every turn. Not their marriage but she's sitting in the investigators office with them.  She wants her family to be a package deal but has conniptions because Pedro is close to his family? 

Seems unfair.

She said they rarely see her family because of conflict, so it seems she did choose her husband over her family. Pity he didn’t do the same for her. 

[sainte-chapelle]

My my my Jorge sounds like quite the piece of work if Anfisa is to be believed. An emotional blackmailer and abuser. They painted her as quite the witch last season but she made a good point when she stated that she doesn't have the power to be controlling without a green card and Jorge does and he lorded that over her constantly. After his dead eyes during the tell all I am inclined to believe her.

[pinky33]

Every couple on this show sucks.

I never in a million years thought I would find Anfisa to be the ONLY person on this show with whom I would sympathize and like. Jorge is sooo not in her league intellectually, mentally, physically, or any other way. Not even close.

Pao is way too invested in her "friendship" with Juan, and is more distraught about not seeing him again than she is about her "miscarraige" and dying grandmother. Priorities Pao. And the way she smirked when Juan AGAIN insulted her husband made me want to punch her in the face. And yeah, I'd be shocked if she hasn't slept with that photographer. Also, there are people in Columbia who want to buy a calendar with Pao?

Oh Chantel....These are Pedro's priorities, in order: 1) Mother Pedro 2) Sister Pedro 3) Pedro 4) His gaming system 5) Making money to go back to the DR 6) High school sweetheart out there somewhere and finally 7) Chantel. So Chantel has to accept that Pedro bought his bitch sister a plane ticket and an expensive massive couch for his bitch sister to sleep on, has to buy her a sleeping bag and sheets for her to be comfortable on he couch, has to drive to the airport and pick the bitch sister up, has to be super friendly and welcoming to the bitch sister, and then has to accept that bitch sister is going to laugh and turn her nose up at sleeping on the couch while Pedro chastises Chantel for not getting an air mattress for the bitch sister. This marriage is pretty much over.

 Molly, Molly, Molly... you're a doormat. Did anyone else believe that when she was calling Luis from his bedroom that she was hoping he'd apologize and want to come back? And saying he's not the same person she met in the DR? Ummm, yes he is. She just didn't know him yet. But let's allow him in your home alone with your innocent daughters and play stepdad to them. Mother of the Year.

I just can't feel sorry for Nicole. Anyone who puts a relationship with a man in front of the well being of her child (ahem, Molly) doesn't deserve my sympathy. Watching Azan laugh as he tried to explain the phone calls and "apologize" made me totally laugh out loud. And poor Mae (who seems to get tinier every season) sitting there in the middle of this conversation. Another Mother of the Year.

Poor Annie...her new friend must have been thinking during that whole scene, "So sucks to be you, girlfriend." Seriously, could Annie have possibly picked a worse American to marry (aside from a murderer/rapist of course)?

I hate everyone on this show (except Anfisa...wtf?) but can't.stop.watching.

These are just excuses for Chantel to do anything she wants, but then criticize Pedro for doing the same as she does.  She doesn't like conflict?  Really?  She has no problem getting all up in Nicole or Pedro's face when she wants.  They flashed back tonight to her in the DR calling Nicole a skank ass bitch and making a scene at the hotel, didn't they?  Just another excuse.  She just can't assert herself and function as an adult when it comes to the groupthink of her family.  Real mature.

Disagree all you want.  Doesn't matter to me one way or the other.  Still doesn't make Chantel right or better than Pedro in any way.  

Chantel being Chantel doesn't give her the right to do whatever she pleases while Pedro has to follow her rules.  Especially when her ass doesn't even follow them.  I've said this before.  Chantel wanted someone who she could rule.  She didn't count on Pedro being just as good at her own game and just as invested in his family as she is.

Family Chantel is awful; mama y hermana Pedro are evil but that little beast had only been there a short time and was already laughing at them, and at their argument?  And demanding a stress-free vacation, not on the couch?  Bad planning there, Peedro.

If she had no issues with conflict with Pedro, he wouldn’t have thousands of dollars in gaming equipment, nor would he be sending $300 a month to his mother. 

[fountain]

Pedro’s sister is a piece of work.  I kind of was indifferent on Pedro before but really Chantal and Pedro and their families all deserve each other, they are all awful.

Pao’s friend is an asshole and it sucks that Pao’s parents like him.  Hopefully they get to see this show to see how he is playing people. Pao is an idiot to not see how much of an asshole her friend is, but I guess she is too self-absorbed to notice.

I don’t understand why David would get a reversal.  He has biological kids and Annie wants a baby so buy sperm.  That is way cheaper and also reduces the risk as olde Dads are the cause of many birth defects too.  Then Annie can pick a donor better than David ?

[LilaFowler]

Anfisa/Jorge: he is a pathological liar and possibly a sociopath. He's also dim-witted, in debt, overweight and creepy. I'm going to pretend that Anfisa is only continuing with this to get some screen time and money. It's the only thing that makes sense. She is so far out of Jorge's league and he has mistreated her in major ways.

Nicole/Azan: Morocco is liberal enough that despite it being an Islamic country, it is not dry and is fairly liberal. Azan isn't such a devout Muslim. He isn't above drinking and drunk dialing but won't share a room with Nicole? I really doubt that the hotel would have people follow them upstairs to make sure that they went into separate rooms, so I see what you're doing there, Azan. Keep playing that Muslim card.

Pedro/Chantel: there's no good side to take here. Family Chantel will not stop until they break this couple up. They will not rest, they have no lives and nothing better to do. The busted Mary Kay that they hired to take their money indefinitely investigate Family Pedro knew exactly what to say to them to get herself on their payroll. They really ARE "stupid Americans." If that shoe fits, wear it. As for Sister Pedro, I totally think that she was brought in for revenge after Pedro's trip to the cabin. I can't tell if Pedro and Chantel will make it in the long run. I think they have too much working against them and neither one is mature.

Annie/David: the writing is on the damn wall in at least two languages. David is poor, old, unemployed, neutered, and lazy. Annie wants things that he cannot provide. Get your green card, get a job, get your own place and start dating, Annie. You have no other choice.

Molly/Luis: See? Money doesn't make her any better than Nicole. At least if Azan decided to act like that, he wouldn't even have a guest bedroom to lock himself in and trash. I can only imagine what Kensley was thinking while she was witness to that fighting and screaming. Even though Molly will get her divorce and probably keep most of her assets, something tells me that she hasn't learned anything from this experience. I foresee another disastrous marriage in her future.

You're suggesting that she's NEVER said a WORD to Pedro about how much he sends to his family or how much he spends on video games because she doesn't like conflict?  

Almost EVERY episode is her telling Pedro, her family, or the cameras about how Pedro shouldn't spend money on the things that he does.  There are plenty of examples of her DIRECTLY complaining to Pedro about both the things you mention and plenty of other stuff.   All anyone as to do is watch every segment of theirs.  Literally, every segment is her complaining.  She doesn't give a flip about conflict.  Unless she's rightfully on the receiving end of course.  Or telling her meddling family to butt out of her business.

The quoted post disappeared for some reason. Put it back

[LilaFowler]

Totally forgot about Russ and Pao (SO BORING). What has become of his spine? Whenever Pao talks about her modeling cuh-reer, Russ gets this scared/nervous look on his face. Your wife doesn't respect your opinion even one iota. You are wasting your breath even expressing it, because Pao is going to do exactly what she wants, whenever she wants, all the time.

I just kept thinking about all of the time she was out at clubs with friends, getting drunk and having stupid fight, then "modeling" and getting body painted, when she could have spent all of it with her dying grandmother. She's the worst.

Almost EVERY episode is her telling Pedro, her family, or the cameras about how Pedro shouldn't spend money on the things that he does.  There are plenty of examples of her DIRECTLY complaining to Pedro about both the things you mention and plenty of other shit as long as one isn't being willfully obtuse to make the facts fit an agenda.  All anyone as to do is watch every segment of theirs.  Literally, every segment is her complaining.  She doesn't give a flip about conflict.  Unless she's rightfully on the receiving end of course.  Or telling her meddling family to butt out of her business.

But she never says it directly. 

 

I was almost identical to Chantel in approaches when I was young. It’s obvious she is a conflict avoider. But I didn’t have a selfish husband, and his family weren’t leeches. So I can see what the issues are, and I am fairly certain she doesn’t argue with Pedro about things that bother her, just as she doesn’t confront her family. 

[Marilee]

Molly and Luis: I don’t blame Molly for picking the lock on the bedroom door, but she shouldn’t have put her hands on him. He’s still a psychotic little weasel in tight red sweatpants. Molly, honey, count your blessings, throw the rest of his shit in trashbags for garbage pickup day, go get your lovely daughter and bring her back home, file that divorce, deport him back to the DR and get on with your life. And on that note, Molly’s visit to her lawyer vs Danielle’s strip mall lawyer is night and day.

Nicole and Azan: It’s awful enough in the US but how can Nicole get away with that dress in a Muslim country? *Molly voice* “Don’t nobody want to be looking at all that!”. I feel bad for Nicole because you can tell she was deeply hurt by the voice messages. I hope she learned from this since she now knows how he felt about her cheating. I did have an epiphany though. I always had an undescribable feeling she was lying to make him jealous. 

Chantel and Pedro:  Family Chantel needs to shut the hell up already! And Chantel and Pedro need go back and look at their wedding vows and pay close attention to the part that says you leave your families and cleave to each other. Who, I wonder, is paying for Sister Pedro’s new braces? Orthodontics are not cheap. *next weeks preview Mama Chantel says, “things are about to get a whole lot more stupider.”. I don’t doubt that! I almost want to give her a hug for some reason.

Russ and Pao: *sigh* same old same old. Paola, “I love to take sexy pictures!” HA! I knew the whole “this is just what I HAVE to do to help my cuh-reer, Roooss!” was BS. Also just because the photographer explained the differences betwee artisic and porn still doesn’t mean that Russ has to suddenly be ok with it. If he’s not comfortable with something he’s not comfortable. And, if I’m about to do a sexy photo shoot and my husband is there no problem, but no way would my parents be on set. 

David and Annie: *yawn*

Anfisa and Jorge: As someone said earlier who would’ve thought Anfisa would end up being the sympathetic one and Jorge would end up being the sociopath abuser?

Here’s something I don’t get: How do these people know so little about each other before they get married? You can believe me that if I’m going to spend the amounts of money it takes to get someone here on a K-1 visa and then be on the hook for them for 10 freaking years, then I’m going know everything down to how many times a day they fart on average. They barely know each other’s families or friends if they even know them at all. Russ didn’t know Pao’s grandmother and immediate family. I’d have thought he’d have known more about her d-bag best friend Juan long before now. Especially if Juan is Paola’s Best Friend 4 Ever. Did I hear it right that Chantel didn’t know Pedro’s mom was an immigration lawyer? And that she had no clue about his mom’s website? Nicole didn’t even know where Morocco was and knew absolutely nothing about Muslim culture or traditions. Hell, even Danielle knew enough to know that Ramadan meant she wouldn’t be getting any. (Though to be fair, Nicole would probably be all like, “I don’t give a crap about your stupid religious beliefs Azan!!”. ) Why didn’t Molly be clearer about her expectations of Luis as a husband and stepdad? If you’re spending enough time talking online to decide that this person halfway around the world is your soulmate, then how do not know anything about them and their day to day, you know? The way I see it, they should know more about each other than couples living in the same place. Seriously, all they really can DO  is talk since they don’t have the physical contact and let’s be honest, it doesn’t take that long to i-bone. So many of these relationships seem like prolonged one night stands. I don’t care how much sexual chemistry you think you have or how physically attracted you are, the sex can’t be that great if the other person is a lying abusive nut job. Or if they’re only doing it with you as a chore and a means to an end. It’s like the beer goggles are finally wearing off and now that shit’s getting real, they’re all realizing they’re really getting screwed. Pun totally intended.

[Real Eyes]

She doesn’t argue with him. That’s the difference. 

No princess would be living in a one bedroom apartment and studying on her bed while her husband games at the apartment’s only desk. Nor would a princess have lived without a sofa for two years. 

[TrininisaScorp]

These damn people.  Watching this and flipping over to Westworld has been a trip, man.  Zero (brain cells) to 100 (brain cells), real quick.

Nicole/Azan - I love the jacket Azan picked up Nicole and Mae in; it would look super good on my cute husband instead of Azan Da Scamer.  Azan didn't even really try to explain his way out of this shit.  Like, he didn't even attempt it, and his giggling was great.   Nicole just wants fake assurance, so Azan knew as long as it look like he holds his temper and pretends to be into Nicole, he can probably get away with whatever.  Judgy ass side note: We don't have kids, but I cringe at Mae with nothing but a cell phone to keep her occupied when they are out.  Nicole can't bring a little bag of toys and coloring books or something?  God damn. 

Chantel/Pedro - Ugh.  Family Chantel is ridic.  That PI with the amazing 9 to 5 hair saw the dollar signs when those idiots walked in.  Meanwhile, Sister Pedro is a maaddd bitch.  I don't know how Chantel doesn't see that Pedro will always take his mom/sister's side in a disagreement.  They aren't mature enough to set up guidelines and rules of engagement when dealing with their families, and aren't into working on their marriage enough to realize they need to do something different to make this situation better. 

David/Annie - David is ultimately so frustrating to me...he's So. Fucking. Useless.  I think Annie is a golddigger, but I believe the second she gets that visa (if David sent in the paperwork!), she's working and squirreling away her cash while plotting her escape.  

Russ/Pao - I think I came to this last season, but it rung strong for me this episode:  Pao doesn't really have female friends.  She got some chicks she knows and she has family, but no strong girlfriends.  I think she is 100% one of those women who doesn't know how to cultivate and maintain true female relationships.  Pao is a woman who likes be around men, and probably sees other women as competition.  Just IMO.  And I agree with y'all...she has hit it with that photographer.  Juan can continue to go fuck himself.  I don't feel sorry for Russ...you know who she is, and yet you are here.  Take your Eeyore mopey face away from me, bro.  

Jorge/Anfisa - Jorge is a lying liar who lies, and I can't believe it, but I really like Anfisa's weird, crazy ass.  She is the only want who has any sense, and I honestly feel a little bad for her childhood.  

Molly/Luis - THANK GAWD she got Kenzley out of that house!  That feels like a volatile, scary situation for a kid.  Sigh.  Luis is a grade A asshole and is a nasty piece of work.  Ew.  I talk a lot of shit, but I'm a pacifist...Luis might drive me to violence.  Get the fuck outta my fucking house with that shit, man.

Yes. It's as though she doesn't discuss things with him calmly, rationally, and away from the situation.  Just like the money to the DR issue, and she just winds up exploding. Also, it was like she didn't want to see the PI, got roped into going because she didn't want to go up against Family Chantel, and then when she sat in and listened to the PI, she finally got the courage to say she didn't  want it. 

[magemaud]

I forgot that we’ve had three seasons of totally different but equally unnatural hair colors on Pao! And fuchsia lipstick really clashes with this season’s horrendous red. 

Update! There was a fourth hair color early on (although it looks like a wig) 

 

When Molly was arguing with Luis outside the bedroom door, it reminded me of a mother yelling at a teenage son.

She also needs to cool it with her own family.  They are shit-stirrers in the extreme.

The Family Chantel's PI is also a trip with really bad hair -- I couldn't even tell what was going on there. Some kind of multi-colored bed head? She also had an astounding ignorance of people from other cultures sending money back to their families -- or she's more likely 'playing' Family Chantel for the green. . . "oh, we'll follow Pedro, follow his family in the Dominican." Chi-CHING with a trip to the beach thrown in.

[zenme]

They should have worked the word "hair" into the title, like "Hair today, gone tomorrow," or something like that.

It could be a good thing May is on the tablet or phone, rather than paying attention to what her dumbass mom is doing. Matter of fact, give Kinsley a tablet too!

Maybe someone can refresh my memory, did Molly travel back to “The Dominican” after she met Luis or was the next time she saw him when he arrived at the airport?

I don't get this either. As someone who's been through the K1 visa process and married an immigrant, this whole thing is super weird to me. My husband and I met abroad, dated for a few years, lived together, etc. before we ever applied for the visa. (I mean, we met when I was living and working in his country so it's a little different.) What they're doing basically comes across as a mail order bride thing. More power to them, I guess, but it still feels like they know nothing about each other and then get surprised when the other doesn't live up to the expectations they had. 

[Annymin]

Pao went to Colombia to visit her dying grandmother, right?  Two quick visits, then she is off to Bogota to party with Asshole shit-stirrer Juan the Weasel, then pose body painted nude for a calendar.  Poor abuela, dying in the hospital, wondering when her beloved Pao will come see her again.  Selfish bitch.

[millennium]

I avoided this show until tonight after the Investigation Discovery show I planned to watch failed to record.  

It was ... reassuring? ... to see that absolutely nothing had changed with any of these couples.

Pao/Russ.   I'm probably in the minority, but I think Pao is great.   Russ is an oaf.  He could be having the time of his life if he'd quit being such a church lady (btw, Russ, plastering your hair onto your forehead won't anchor your hairline -- it's receding like the tide).    He should have punched candyass Juan in the kisser, flashed Pao a sly smile and said, "Now let's see about those body paints."

Anfisa/Jorge.   Still boring as ever.   No matter what comes out of Jorge's mouth, his face says "Huh?  Wha?"

Chantal/Pedro.   Chantal is still overdressing for every situation and Pedro is still the immigrant caricacture he's always been.  Sister Pedro could have been concocted by a sitcom writer as well.   Something about Chantal always seems a little off, like her brain has a five-second delay or she's on some kind of medication.   She looked like Mrs. Magoo driving.    Why did her entire family need to be at the office of the private investigator (whose time, I think, would be better spent surveilling her own hair stylist who is obviously pretending to be something he/she isn't)?   Kudos to Mother Chantal for giving voice to what ought to be the tagline to this entire series: 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After -- Things are About to Get a Whole Lot More Stupider.

Molly/Luis.   Good to see Molly getting exactly what she deserves for being such a moron.   

David/Annie.   Without friend Chris' hot, sassy wife, this story is not interesting.

Of all the disturbing things I witnessed in this episode, I think the most disturbing thing of all was Molly's divorce lawyer's toupee.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen Chantel wearing pants, let alone a velour track suit

Maybe someone can refresh my memory, did Molly travel back to “The Dominican” after she met Luis or was the next time she saw him when he arrived at the airport? 

She said on the show once that she went back once more and Luis was expecting her to be like the woman who was there on vacation those two times. So, I think his arrival here was the first time they spent time together that wasn't alcohol-fueled party time.

I cannot believe we have another season of Pao and Russ doing exactly what they did last year: fight about Juan and her "cuh-REAR". Oh, and did you guys know she likes to be sexy?? Poor dying grandmother has to take a backseat to Pao basking in being a Columbian bad girl. Russ is a cross between Butthead and Popeye.

Dear TLC, I am begging you, no more Russ and Pao. I promise to watch every episode of Duggars if you spare us these two.

I wonder if Chantel and Pedro's apartment has a balcony, because perhaps Sister Pedro would be more comfy sleeping in a hammock out there.

How much does it suck to be Annie?! 

Nicole definitely lacks the optimism she had on prior visits to Morocco.

Only one more trip back? So they actually spent very little time together before she brought him to the US! And she’s so shocked that “he changed” into someone she hardly knew once he got here?

The Family Chantel's PI is also a trip with really bad hair -- I couldn't even tell what was going on there. Some kind of multi-colored bed head? She also had an astounding ignorance of people from other cultures sending money back to their families -- or she's more likely 'playing' Family Chantel for the green. . . "oh, we'll follow Pedro, follow his family in the Dominican." Chi-CHING with a trip to the beach thrown in.

I think Family Chantel have found their American dollar harvester.

Am I the only one who experiences inappropriate rage every time Mother and Father Chantel strike their standing pose?  It's like there are literally two tape marks they stand on.

And no signs that she just had a miscarriage a few weeks ago. Not even a mention of it

and why was her hair covering her tits the whole photo shoot?

Because she wanted to “make Colombia proud of her.”

Those were her exact words when she was explaining why she wanted to shoot the calendar.

I wonder if her dying grandmother would have been proud of her for modeling for that calendar shoot. Does Pao even remember why she is “supposed to be there” in the first place?

I’m sure ALL of Colombia knows exactly who she is, tunes into this show each week and roots for her like the international star that she thinks she is (in her own head) and like up for miles to get her autograph. (Said no Colombian ever)

It’s a good thing she hasn’t started modeling hats yet. Could her ego BE any more overinflated?

Her dad was hilarious with the wee bit of shade he threw at her for her “small moral transgression.” I’m pretty sure I laughed harder than I was supposed to.

With the money David has already spent on water buffalo and other bullshit, Annie and her family come out ahead financially at this point whether the marriage works out or not. She has already profited. Annie is as bad of a gold digger as Anfisa and Pedro.

I was bored this week so I started really noticing how horrible the editing was.  Molly and the Dior box drove me nuts, but I had fun with Anfisa and Jorge.  During their discussion at the breakfast bar the cat's butt kept appearing and disappearing behind Jorge.

I think the hair of Molly's lawyer was dyed, not a toupee.  It was matte and absorbed all light.

Azan is a genius.  Instead of taking Nicole to a private residence, where it would be difficult to avoid her clutches, he takes her to a hotel where they can't share a room.  Wasn't so much of an issue during her first visit though, where the separate rooms didn't prevent a hook up.

"classy", or not, I see no need to share my nipples with my father.  And why do I feel like Pao has some super shady past, like drugs, or prostitution, that weasel face knows about, hence her loyalty to him.

Sister Pedro came in hot and super bitchy.  I was on the side of Chantel for once.  The PI knew her audience well.  I will make you super paranoid so you give me lots of money to do an international investigation.

Zero sympathy for Annie.  She knew everything before coming over.  There's no blindsiding here.

Every time Russ establishes a line that can't be crossed, Pao crosses it and Russ gives in.  Pathetic.

HAHAHA!! And that open mouth. He should get “Doofus” tattooed on his forehead and call it a day.

I forgot they were on this show, honestly. Pao needs to look at some of Kathrtyn Dennis’ modeling photos to realize she’s too heavy for any type of modeling work. Unless it involves a pole and a g-string.

I think she knows it already, judging from the photoshopped photo of her trying to slim down her waist.
