Stacy
Layne
Tina
Melanie
Machel
Suzanne
Sharon
Lola
Nicole
It all begins on Saturday at 10:00am as we see the daughters talking with Marty in the kitchen. The daughters want their dad to meet the women without the women knowing it is their dad. So, Marty tells them he trusts them and he knows they can pull it off!
Out to the front of the house where the daughters meet the women one-by-one. This takes a while and each woman meets and greets Jennifer, Brooke, and Nicole. After all the meetings, a letter is read that Marty wrote about the upcoming search for a wife, how great his daughters are and how excited he is to meet all these great women. Next up…shopping! The daughters are taking their possible step-mom to a jewelry store where they will get to pick out their own engagement ring!
At the jewelry store, we see how the daughters decide to pull off the women to meet their dad without revealing it to the women! They take each woman “off” camera to a secluded room with the rings. One at a time the women go into the room and meet a jewelry “specialist” to discuss the rings. By hidden camera, we see that the specialist is Marty! He chit chats with all of them and talks about being on a reality show and do they really think they can find a mate this way! It is very funny!
Back at the house…the women are shown around the house by the daughters! The women are shown their living quarters and find out that there are 13 beds in one room and they have to share ONE bathroom! They will meet Marty first thing in the morning!
Next morning the daughters go and wake the women. They are told they have 20 minutes to be dressed and in the hallway in order to meet Marty! Chaos ensues! Can you just imagine 13 women rasslin to get into the bathroom? Just like herding cattle into those little gates to take them to the slaughterhouse!
All the women make it to the hallway in front of the door and lined up like good little soldiers! The doorbell rings and a deliveryman delivered a note to the daughters. The daughters have 10 minutes to determine two women that will be eliminated immediately and never meet their dad! WOO HOO! Let the drama begin!
The daughters are shown in tears saying this is such a tough decision! WTF? It is a simple process ladies…go by first impressions! That is all you have anyway! It isn’t like you are eliminating long lost friends that have suddenly came back into your lives. They are strangers! To top it off, there are tears EVERYWHERE! Again, HELLO! These are strangers to you and you should have no feelings towards them at all. Just call two names out and let’s move on to the slaughterhouse!
After all the lamenting and discussions, the daughters are in agreement. The first lady to be sent home will be Tina! The second person to not meet Marty will be Debbie! There is more smeared mascara than butter I smeared on my toast this morning! HEY HEY! I love my butter, what can I say?
Okay, back to meeting Marty. The daughters have gathered the remaining 11 ladies in the living room and Marty enters from the back of the room to surprise everyone! They are all in shock to see the jewelry man as the potential husband they are playing for!
We then get to listen to the children give us a love fest about how great Marty is! Then the potential wives talk about how handsome their love interest is and how excited they are to be there. BLAH BLAH BLAH…can we get to the slaughterhouse PAHLEASE?
Sunday night we have a mixer where Marty will get to spend some one-on-one time with each lady and give her a gift! Every lady is wearing black! WTF? This isn’t a funeral or is it? Each lady is all excited to spend time with Marty and we get confessionals of each of them as they show little snippets from each meeting. Marty gives each of the ladies a diamond necklace with their initial on it. This part sort of reminds me of the eighties when we wore each other initial bracelets! Oh we were so hip! The good ole days! Back to 2004, sorry for the digression, Stacy is shown saying that she isn’t easily impressed with men but Marty has blown her away! I can really see why this would happen; she has yet to say a word to him and has not even done anything more than shake his hand and give him a hug. Stacy honey, I say men easily impress you if those two things cause you to be blown away by him!
When the alone time is over, the fax machine rings! Oh yeah, I had totally forgotten about the annoying fax machine…now let the drama begin! Tomorrow morning after breakfast, the three daughters will have to announce who they think are the least compatible with their dad. The two ladies will then proceed to take the lie detector test! Now we are getting somewhere! WOO HOO!
Breakfast, Monday morning, 9am, and we are at the table. The daughters gather around their dad to make their decision public. They ask that the two ladies please clean off their plate from the table and prepare for the test. Their choices; Layne and Sarah!
Now for the good stuff! Layne goes first and here are the questions we are shown:
Question 1) If you are on vacation with Marty and he forgets his toothbrush; would you let him use yours?
Answer Yes
PASSED
Question 2) Would you still love Marty if you found out he was a huge Barry Manilow fan?
Answer Yes
PASSED
Question 3) Did you dye your hair when you found out that Marty doesn’t like blondes?
Answer Yes
PASSED
Question 4) Are you pretending to like the daughters in order to get chosen?
Answer No
FAILED
Question 5) Would you like Marty better if he had no kids?
Answer No
FAILED
Sarah is up next!
Question 1) If you married Marty, would help pay one of his daughter’s rent?
Answer Yes
FAILED
Question 2) Are you a good cook?
Answer No
PASSED
Question 3) If you marry Marty, will you flirt with the daughter’s boyfriends?
Answer Yes
PASSED
Question 4) If Marty shaved his head would you still be attracted to him?
Answer Yes
PASSED
Question 5) Do you think you are mature enough to get married?
Answer Yes
FAILED
The daughters are shown discussing the answers and it is obvious that we are not shown all the Q & A! Everyone gathers in the living room for the announcement. They have decided that Layne is not a good fit for their dad!
After Layne exits the house and dinner is served, we learn that at each dinner, Marty gets to take one lady for a private dessert each night. Marty gets to make his choice as whom he wants to take on his first date.
Cue the music: we are not shown the lady but Marty is saying that he wonders how the ladies will find out that the girls aunt and his sister-in-law is a mole living with them!
OH.THE.DRAMA!
