Real World Austin: Finale
Going Out With A Bang, Two Of Them
By Natasha Darius
November 23, 2005
On The Real World...Mel and Danny go back to the place where they first met. It was actually kind of sweet. Danny said that going back to Mt. Bonnell (the hill where he met Mel) brought back those feelings he had when he first laid eyes on her. Aaawwwe. Okay...that's enough. Danny asked Mel if she would go back to Boston with him and of course she obliged. They're going to get an apartment together and blissfully live in sin.
Back at the crib...everyone is packing. The roommates decide it would be a great idea to have on last hoorah at the good ole Dizzy Rooster. At the Rooster, Wren (Wes's sexual conquest) runs into Nehemiah and tells him to give Wes a message that he is nothing. He's a piece of s**t and to tell him to f**k off. Uh oh... something tells me word got back to her that Wes opened his mouth about their little off camera boot knockin.
Well it looked like Wren beat Nehemiah to the punch. She found Wes while he was on the dance floor with some random chicks and she popped him and starts cussin up a storm. Wes of course looks bewildered, "What are you talking about? What's going on?" Wren is going off and every word you can think of, even the F word that she chastised Wes for saying, was flying out of her mouth in just about every dialect imaginable. She told Wes that he has been going around telling lies. I don't know why it took so long for Wes to get a clue but he finally realized what Wren was talking about. Damn... there's just too many W's around here. Couldn't he have hooked up with someone whose name begins with the letter B?
Anyhoo...Wes figures that one of the girls opened their mouth about the encounter. He immediately starts looking for Johanna and Rachel. At this point, Wes is livid. They went back to the house and the interrogation begins in the bathroom. Wes confronts Johanna and she said that they saw Wren at the Dizzy Rooster. The situation between Wren and Wes came out of Rachel's mouth. Wes storms out of the bathroom into the kitchen where Rachel and the rest of the roommates were hanging out. He begins to get all in Rachel's face while she appears to be looking quite unphased. I think that what really blew the roof off for Wes. Then she called him a bitch for acting salty because his business was out on the front street. Wes screams at Rachel and calls her a bitch for telling his off camera business on camera. Okay... here's a tip for you Wes. If you got some off camera, why couldn't you just keep your mouth shut? Did you really have to tell anybody? You just couldn't keep it to your self could you? Worst of all... you told your female roommates. Bad decision making there.
Okay... here's where is starts to get crunk. The arguing escalates and Wes is about ready to sock Rachel in the chops. Lucky for her Johanna (I think it was Johanna or maybe it was Nehemiah) jumps in front of Wes and Danny jumps in front of Rachel. Meanwhile, Lacey is on her trusty information floater (the telephone) giving her boyfriend the blow-by-blow. I mean where else did you really expect Lacey to be? Somehow Nehemiah gets involved and before you know it, Wes and Nehemiah are on Rachel like two Rottweilers on a defenseless kitten. Danny's body was covering Rachel's. If it wasn't for Danny, that chick would have been toast.
Danny gets up to push Wes and Nehemiah away, while Mel consoles Rachel in the bathroom. She crying uncontrollably and can't understand why they are so angry. Rachel then runs out of the house with no shoes on, just walking the streets, crying and what not. Johanna catches up with her to tell, "Look you're better than this. You can't stay out here." Rachel refuses to go back into the house and prefers to sleep on the street. Johanna says,"You're being stupid right now. You can't sleep on the street. Get yourself together and go back to the house." Draaammaaaaa!
Rachel comes back to the house and gets on the phone to call Erik (her boyfriend) and explain the situation. She said that she will never speak to Nehemiah ever again.
The volcano eruption finally subsides, with Rachel practically sleeping with her eyes open and Wes and Nehemiah are knocked out. Danny and Mel, console each other after the whole mess. Wow...you guys really know how to go out with a BANG.
It's the last day and the first cab arrives. Rachel is the first to leave. Naturally, she said goodbye to everyone else except Wes and Nehemiah. They don't seemed to be bothered by it all. Somehow that doesn't surprise me one bit. Wes's response to Rachel leaving, "Good riddens!"
The second cab arrives and it's for Nehemiah. Nehemiah leaves convinced that everybody was affected good or bad by the whole of experience of living together for 4 months. And I have to say that he's probably right.
The third cab arrives and Lacey's boyfriend shows up with it. How sweet is that? Something tells me these two will be an everlasting item. Johanna was the only one who cried when Lacey left the house. I guess they were a lot closer than I thought. Boy...they edited a lot out.
The fourth cab arrives and Wes leaves saying, "I came here with the same feelings I had for Johanna when I got here... a crush." Dude let it go!!!!!!!!!!! Johanna made a statement that she will miss Wes and that he was her buddy the time they were there in the house. The key word here is "buddy". Pay attention Wes.
The fifth cab arrives and it's for Johanna. Still crying her head off, she states that she'll miss all of her roommates and it will be an experience she'll never forget. After all that drinking you did, are you sure about remembering anything?
The last car arrives and it's not just any ole cab...it's a convertible cab. I guess they had to do a little something special for our love birds. But before leaving the house, Danny and Mel take one last walk around the house reminiscing about special events. And get this, they managed to squeeze in one last romp in the shower stall. Aaawwe how sweet. (Ugh)
"I was attracted to you the first I saw you and now you're my boyfriend. And I'm in love with you and moving to Boston for you". All in 4 months. Wow Mel. Your previous boyfriend didn't have a prayer the moment you signed on to be on this show.
The two leave separately at the airport. There's was a lot of sobbing involved. Apparently they can't bare to be without each other for a few days. Mel is going home for a few and then joining Danny in Boston. Come on you two...suck it up. It's only a few days.
