Episode 63: You Always Miss A Best Friend

Episode Recap:

The episode starts off in Heidi and Spencer’s apartment. Heidi’s sister Holly is telling her about how she wishes she could go out and meet more people in the area. She mentions that she only knows Heidi and Lauren (purposely leaving Spencer out). This apparently gets Spencer riled up a bit and he says that there will be no “fraternization” with Lauren while Holly lives under their roof. Heidi as usual just stands there and lets Spencer be the jerk that he usually is on the show.

Meanwhile, Lauren and Whitney are at work discussing how Lauren’s friendship with Audrina has gotten a lot better since they had a showdown. Then Holly texts Lauren. Lauren is a little reluctant to meet up with Holly because of the Heidi thing, plus she doesn’t want to cause more problems.

Audrina gets called into publicist Kristin Loretta’s office over at Epic Records. Kristin says she needs Audrina to help her – be her “right hand” for the White Tie Affair, who is performing in LA for the first time.

Holly and Lauren meet up for lunch and catch up a bit. Lauren mentions that she is a little worried because she doesn’t want to cause trouble. Holly is just so glad to catch up with Lauren and she says it is OK.

Audrina and Justin meet up and they talk about Audrina’s friendships with Lauren and Lo and how they are improving.

Audrina invites Lauren to the White Tie Affair showcase and after-party. The night of the event dawns and Audrina meets the band. They are surprisingly good which Lauren mentions to Audrina. Justin – who has been so supportive to Audrina lately – doesn’t show up and Audrina wonders where he is.

Back at Speidi’s apartment, Heidi comes home and asks Holly what she has been up to all day. Holly says she was just out and about looking for jobs, etc. Then she mentions that she met up with Lauren at a bistro type place the day before. Heidi isn’t too happy about it but Holly mentions that she thinks Lauren misses Heidi.

Back at the band showcase, Stephanie seems to hit it off with one of the band members. Lo asks Audrina if Justin is coming. Audrina replies that she doesn’t know what he is doing.

The next morning Audrina tells her friend/coworker Chiara about how the night went, and how Justin never showed up. At FIDM, Lauren tells Stephanie about how she met up with Holly. Heidi talks to a coworker about how she misses Lauren. Lauren tells Stephanie that meeting up wtih Holly makes her miss Stephanie.

Episode Review:

This was a pretty good episode… it made us wonder if Heidi and Lauren will become friends again someday. But wouldn’t that involve Heidi dumping Spencer? He would never allow them to be friends. I also thought that Lo asking Audrina if Justin was coming to the showcase was kind of catty. It was clear that Justin has stood Audrina up… did Lo really need to bring attention to that fact?

Spencer was his usual excessively rude and sarcastic self… either the whole thing is an act or he really needs serious help. Heidi acts way too much like a doormat and needs to dump Spencer.

I thought it was hilarious that Holly met up with Lauren despite Spencer’s warnings to her. Clearly nobody really cares about what Spencer says.

I can’t wait to see how the Lauren and Holly friendship thing plays out… will she bring Heidi and Lauren back together, or will it be another disaster? And will Audrina dump Justin once and for all?
