What About Brian: The Importance of Being Brian
(S01E04) What about him? For this episode, they should have changed the title to Everybody Needs Brian. I felt bad for the guy. All Brian was trying to do was have a lazy Saturday full of mindless sex, and the entire day his phone won't stop ringing.
After bumping into Lisa B. at the end of last week's episode, Brian brought her home, proceeded to undress her, and then spent the next 24 hours with her. As I said, his phone wouldn't stop ringing and the problem with that (especially when you have someone new in your apartment), is that they might hear something they shouldn't when the answering machine kicks in. Like what you might ask? Perhaps Marjorie, calling to tell Brian that the two of them need to figure out whatever it is that's going on between them. You do not, under any circumstances, want the girl that you just spent the entire day with hearing a message like that. Goodbye Lisa B.
Meanwhile, Adam and Marjorie are starting to register at department stores for wedding gifts. Adam is 100% not into the idea and Marjorie picks up on it. Perhaps she's having second thoughts about marrying this chump? That's right, I still don't like this Adam character.
Nic is moody because of all the hormone treatments she's taking in an effort to get pregnant. But once Angelo finds out that she's been doing that behind his back, I don't think the resulting argument will go smoothly. Until that day comes, it's funny to watch her go from being happy to irritated every five seconds. The scene where she was trying to figure out which car door was ajar (while the car kept repeating "door ajar') was hilarious.
The real story here was Dave and Deena. After her supermarket parking-lot sex last week, Deena seems to be on edge when she's around Dave. It's their daughter's birthday and Richard (that's the divorced guy she slept with) brings his daughter to the party. In an incredibly heartbreaking scene, Dave was watching the video he recorded all day and caught a glimpse of Richard grabbing Deena to sneak off and do something adulterous. I suppose I don't feel as bad for him though, because he definitely wants to get naked with the video game lady he's in business with now. I forget her name but she was Connie in The Mighty Ducks. Don't ask me why I remember her name in a fifteen year old movie and not in a show I watched last night.
Next week, in Grey's Anatomy style, the show has already reached its finale. Although I think Grey's had nine episodes and we're only getting five here. Regardless, it looks like it's going to be a real cliffhanger. Will Dave confront Deena? Will Marjorie leave Adam for Brian? If they do it well though, then this will definitely be the show that everyone is talking about all summer long.
