Episode Report Card Jacob Clifton: A+ | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT The Prime of Miss Nat Newman
By Jacob Clifton | Season 6 | Episode 5 | Aired on 09.20.2010
Latrice will not be handing over the money. She will also be collecting the drugs which, she notes in an extortionist's tone, Nancy was planning on leaving in rooms 812, 315, and 1401. Nancy admits she has no drugs, and Latrice is nearly impressed. "So you was gonna take the money and leave these fools nothing? You're worse than I thought!"
Well, Nancy doesn't want to hear that, at all. She sort of loses it at this point. "Fuck you, Latrice! Really! Fuck you!" I love when being a hot white lady doesn't work out for her. Not because I have anything against Nancy -- I love her more every year -- but because it short-circuits her so fucking fast. She just cannot believe it, first of all, and she pushes up against it and pushes and then it pops and she just goes APESHIT. "Whaaaaat?"
She stalks to the door, because fuck Latrice and now she's got to figure out something new, hopefully before she hits the parking lot, but then Latrice makes the mistake of chuckling at her expense. "You really ain't good at shit," says she. And Nancy's eyes go black as night, because if she's not hot shit and she doesn't get shit done, then what have the last six years been about? Door: Slammed. Ass-kicking: Administered.
Out in the hall, a bloodied crack-looking Nancy hands one former earring feather over to Joe, and tells him to get somebody to clean up the room. "I left a mess in there," she says airily, and then drops that nasty wig at his feet. "Could you take that? Thank you." You can't see a latte straw between her teeth, but it is there in spirit. Actually, more, I think. She's not been this disconnected in a long time: She's taking a U-Turn. You can tell by the way stuff melts as she walks by it.
Rebekah, stoned and alone with Andy at the motel, babbles about how much she loves her babies and how they are so connected, and meanwhile Andy's whining about how he was supposed to have baby/wife but because his Power is an illusion, he ended up in Seattle with Nancy. "Sexless. Sexless in Seattle... I have no power. I have no wife. I have no bond." Rebekah admits that her husband didn't even leave her for a younger girl, he just left her to get away from her, and she thinks the cheater story is less embarrassing.
Then she climbs onto Andy's face. In between kissing madly, she's asking about celiac in the family, galactosemia, cystic fibrosis, neurofibromatosis, and he's like, "Um..."
Andy protests the idea of reproducing right there in Seattle, and she gets intense. "Come on, shithead! Give me your sperm! It doesn't cost you anything!" He shoves her away, but then he thinks about it for a second and, Andy style, decides to go for it. But, you know, God and his sense of humor. The phone rings.
