The Big
Twist: Part 1
September
18
Welcome back for an all new
season of Beauty and the Geek. things are sure to get twisted this time
around, but first, before we kick the season off, let’s take a look at
some of the casting highlights.
How about a geek that can name the presidents backwards?
Or a Beauty that not only doesn’t know who won the Civil War, but
doesn’t know who it was between. Worse yet, when asked who won, someone
answered, “We did.”
How about a geek that considers himself a LARPer. That stands for Live
Action Role Playing such as acting out Dungeons and Dragons.
Jenny Lee and Nate from last season are the lucky ones who get the
opportunity, the pleasure, and the joy of interviewing the candidates.
Beauty question: What is your IQ? Answers: 2.5 and slightly over “not
too dumb”
Another geek is studying Type 2 quasar and sub digital sky surfing.
Don’t worry, there will be many more terms that no one has a clue about.
This same geek call kissing “an incident”
One girl thinks the first person to land on the moon was Lance
Armstrong. Add on 52 stripes and 8 stars on the US flag.
And to worry us about the state of education in America, one beauty
answer the question “What’s the last book you have read?” with “Well,
since I’ve been in college I really haven’t been reading…” Yeesh!
Let’s add in a girl in Little Rock who after a 10 second pause when
asked who wrote Beethoven’s 5th answered Mozart.
Next question: Would you marry for money? Answer: depends on how long he
would live.
Your Beauties and Geeks have been chosen, let’s meet them:
Natalie - ultimate hooters girl
Hollie - professional Betty Boop
Erin - beautician
Rebecca - Cocktail waitress
Shay - Beauty Pageant Queen
Katie - sorority girl
Jasmine - babysitter
Jen - cigar model
Amanda - Aspiring Playboy model
Tony - Bio medical engineer
William - owns thousands of comics
Luke - Robotics Engineer
Josh - Rubber Band Club President
Jesse - Lives with parents
Dave - LARPer, Demon Lord Malgosh
John - perfect 5.0 at MIT
Will - Software Engineer
Joshua - Astrophysicist, no sexual history
Now the Beauties and Geeks are spilt into separate rooms and will have
to travel over to the opposite room one by one to introduce themselves
and be chosen
Will heads over first and the nerves are palpable.
The girls gawk at his awkwardness and his balding, but they are saddened
by his song that suggests he’d rather live in a fantasy world than the
real one.
Hollie then heads over and does her Betty Boop impression which goes
over well.
That is followed by Dave who harkens a medieval speech. He then Let
Jasmine slay him.
Amanda introduces her $8,000 boobs and tells of her Playboy aspirations.
Josh shows off his rubber band skills shooting a cup off of one of the
beauties heads.
Jen is a fitness buff who bench presses 135 lbs.
John is a juggler and tries to teach Amanda but is worried about
touching her inappropriately.
Rebecca treated the geeks to some Massage therapy.
William did some stick juggling but the girls think he even smelled
nervous.
Natalie went over and tied a cherry stem into a knot.
Joshua had the girls worried that he was going to pass out. Then he
called his mom and put her on speakerphone. Mom said Josh was real
smart… duh
Shay goes over and talks of her love of shopping
Luke talks about his robotics skills and scares them with how simple he
thinks robots are.
Katie has talents. She can always find Waldo and makes a mean PB&J.
Jesse says he is a software engineer and the girls ask if he means
computers…duh, again.
Erin works at a salon doing hair and Jesse admits that his mom does his
hair.
Tony teaches them how to tie a Bow Tie and one Beauty thinks Tony will
be a “diamond in the rust”
Jasmine was a cheerleader and cheers for the geeks. The guys feign
interest.
Now that everyone has introduced themselves, it is time to pick
teams….NOT. This season the Beauties and Geeks will get a night to sleep
on it by having a slumber party outside tonight.
And that is highlighted by a Jacuzzi party! Everyone squeezes into a
tiny Jacuzzi and the girls only comment is that Josh and Joshua really
need to get their backs waxed. Wait a few episodes ladies…
Everyone packs into the cabanas and Joshua gets to sleep in the same
cabana with 3 of the girls! Nothing happens…
They go to bed, everyone wakes up and it is time for the first
challenge.
Dr. Debbie Magids will be giving the Geeks a social skills test and the
Beauties will get an intellectual skills test from Dr. Barton Goldsmith
to determine where everyone stands to being, but the winners of these
challenges will get to control the course of the entire game.
The geeks are asked to draw their ideal woman and Tony draw just a face.
Joshua is asked to kiss a mannequin like his Grandmother and can only
hug it, then he is asked to treat the mannequin like it was his
girlfriend and he did the exact same thing. Overall everyone was
uncomfortable.
The Girls did no better as the failed miserably and puzzle, math and
reading tests.
But now for the results: Joshua and Shay…You scored the lowest, but like
golf, you win!
Being the two who have the most to gain from this transformation
process, Shay and Joshua will get to pick their own teammates and set up
all of the other pairs too. Cries of not fair come from the peanut
gallery but the decision ahs been made, here are the pairs.
1: Joshua and Shay
2. Tony and Amanda
3. Dave and Jasmine
4. Jesse and Erin
5. John and Natalie
6. William and Jen
7. Will and Rebecca
8. Josh and Hollie
9. Luke and Katie
Many of the couples feel as if their wishes were not heeded, but those
are the breaks
But wait there’s a team #10 waiting just behind the front door.
And this time the Geek is a girl and the beauty is a man. We learn
nothing of the team for now, but if you want to know more just tune in
next time. |
