>Yep, Sam can be an idiot
>alright. Yes, he was acting a fool when he met Nicole.
And it's just going to get worse from here...
What bugs me about him isn't just that he's conceited, but that he is truly awful as a partner to Nicole. I haven't seen him give her any help at all.
In fact, aside from boinking Rebecca, I haven't seen him interact with anyone in a positive way.
I'm hoping the winner will be decided by a Jury again. Sam might be sorry in the end.

Good point about the jury. Nicole is young, still in school. The money would help but she already has a future without it.
I must admit last season's highlight was having the self-centered beauty's partner lobby not to vote for them. The same can happen to Sam in this show for the same reasons.
Jasmine is being reviewed, and I am forced to hate her even more. The only person I had to work with who was this bad only lasted three weeks at the computer store. And I believe she only last that long because she was blond and stacked, thus getting extra help at first from some of the males in the company. But with a woman manager, sooner or later the paperwork had to be done, and done right. Guess what, she could not do it right.
PS. I know this is a mild spoiler, but Jasmine does not know the term lobbying?
And while geeks are not true social people, we do meet at the local computer/astro/SF/Manga/Anime clubs. Who does not know to cover their mouth when they yawn?

Gosh darn it, all you geeks with a crush on Nicole, couldn't you give her a hint or something?
Are you expecting her to have ESP?
At this point, she might like a break from listening to "I am Sam". I certainly would.

Even extreme geeks usually manage to give a sign they're interested.
It's unfortunate that they will probably get shot down more than once, but now is their time to realize "nothing ventured, nothing gained".
Years later, I look back and realize some of the most fun I had was with "geeks" coming out of their shell. Of the male "beauties" I dated, I can barely remember their names - much less anything they ever said.

What a disappointing hour of tv. I HATE it when these reality shows create a "filler" episode full of recraps. Really, what's the point?

I wonder if they planned this episode with consideration to the baseball playoffs. They couldn't have known that they series would be over by now.I agree though - you really don't see anything we haven't seen before.

Another Arkie Masterpiece! Is that woman talented or what?

I usually don't like the recrap stuff. But I did enjoy this episode. We saw more sides to the Geeks and the Beauties. We found out more about Nicole. She always seems to be overshadowed in the regular shows by Sam. And even with him we found out Rebecca was not his first choice. But Amanda(?) was booted before he could land her. Alot of this show is more about the interactions than who is booted. So to find out more about them was interesting. Now on with the second half of the season.

It was interesting to find out about Sam's hope to hook up with Amanda,Wonder what Rebecca will think when she sees this show air?
However, this was practically the only news in an hour of recaps and repetition.
