This week's episode seemed really short, probably since the majority of it focused on the red carpet premiere of Vince's movie. It was kind of odd that for such a huge event (they had a ton of extras), they didn't show any other big celebrities there. At any rate, we got a continuation of the E and Sloan storyline, though the whole thing seems like a repeat of a plot they've used with the 2 of them before. E finally tells Sloan that he wants to be more than just friends, and that seemingly ends things between them for the time being, so E goes to see the younger girl he had hooked up with before because of all the pressure from everyone else hanging out with their girlfriends. In the meantime Sloan texts him but he deletes it. I thought he had a lot of options now that he's successful, so how come he only has Sloan or Ashley as options?
During all of that, Ari was trying to get his wife and Andrew's wife to hang out because he hates his wife's friends. During the course of that, he finds the wives get along great, and it's really Andrew that was blowing the meeting of the wives because he's cheating on his wife. Ari goes ballistic, telling Andrew that he gave him everything and he's going to blow it for some little girl that won't mean anything, but they are interrupted by the wives before any conclusion comes of that. I'd guess Andrew's cheating will continue and eventually Ari will have to get rid of Andrew even though he's finally becoming successful.
Vince's red carpet premiere
Jamie-Lynn Sigler and Turtle made waves by being seen on the red carpet together for the first time in public, and Drama and Vince brought some other girls to the premiere too.
An interesting episode, but it still avoided mentioning where the plot with Vince is going, and has setup for more relationship drama with E, which really isn't that interesting because it's started to get repetitive, especially with how they always play on his awkwardness. Hopefully we get more info on how Vince's movie did, what his next project is, what Turtle's working on, what new clients E has, more hilarity with Lloyd, etc.
