Question 1: How did the girls get the money to pay for their time in the tanning salon? Last episode, the girls earned I believe $78 for that bag of boiled crawfish that they sold as fresh catch. Since then, they drove from Louisiana to Texas, ate (I'm quite sure they did...) bought gas, paid tolls, etc. How much of that $78 would they have left? How much does a tanning parlor cost? Who paid for the boys' tans? I doubt that the boys would have paid for something like themselves? PS: Who paid for the drinks at the bar? All from that $78 for the crawfish?...

Question 2: Paris does all the driving, as Nicole's license was suspended following a speeding ticket and heroin possession (another story...). Paris has stated before filming this show that she has very little driving experience (once drove all the way to Palm Springs -- a 2 hour trip -- was exhausting...). So, just how do Paris and Nicole find their way 'cross country? I don't even see a map with them, just a small white paper in Paris' hand with the address. How do they get from say, somewhere in Lousisana to somewhere in Texas? Do they stop along the way? They always look fresh and energetic, when they arrive as these locations. I've been on many long road trips, never look fresh and energetic when I arrive...

Do you suppose the film helps them out a bit? Isn't that against the rules? Are they really, REALLY, feeding themselves, perhaps making overnight stops (OK, no hotel, but still have to pay rental space for the trailer, and you have to know how to find a trailer/RV park to stop at.) Oh, nooooo... I think it's staged... again... they'er not really traveling on their own at all, are they????

I agree, they get money. If the average Joe went out and tried to do what they are doing they wouldnt make it.
Its Paris & Nicole everyone wants to see them and a lot of the show is just for the cameras. Its all an act.

I have never thought that either of them would be able to park the trailer and pull out the awning the way they do every night. Someone must be doing that for them.

Yes, that's right, who sets it up for them? And do remember a recent episode (Dr. Doolittle) when the gals drove off at the end with their electrical cord dangling down the road? Next episode, everything was fine, electrical was fine, no explantion of how that cord made it bumping down the expressway for 1,000 miles...
