At this point, Models, Inc. knew they were in trouble and needed to boost the ratings to get renewed.  They did that by featuring Lara Harris (who's that?) and Emma Samms appearing as Grayson.  Who is Emma Samms?  Who knows.  But they made it clear this was a big deal.  She looks a bit like Lillith from Frasier. Anyway - five distinct story lines. Carrie is playing along with Dr. Sex to get released, but he realizes that she's been faking taking her pills, so he gets Hillary to lock her up in the home for six months. Eric has found himself engaged in prostitution as a stud with an attitude, a fact that Linda is not thrilled with.  "Sleep with as many horny rich ladies as you want." she says, but I don't think she means it. Julie is continuing to fall in love with Craig, and even though she breaks up with him, she can't bring herself to sleep with a photographer to get a job.  So she yells at Craig, sleeps with him, gets back together, finds his safe, reads his book, and boom, she's out of there. Monique and Adam are getting married, already have a wedding shower, and apparently Hillary is like a mother to Monique so Monique will wear Hillary's wedding dress and Hillary will give Monique away at her wedding.  Remember, it was only on episode 8 that Monique walked in to Models, Inc., having never met Hillary before.  But then Grayson returns home, so what now? But the drama is with Cynthia and Brian's failed efforts to rescue her.  Cynthia is sexually assaulted, shoots Frank, all despite Brian's best efforts to apparently let her stay caught. Then, we have to watch Cynthia get grilled by a nurse trying to validate the rape.  This whole thing is terrible. Mary still refuses to watch the show. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/melroseplacecast/message
