Ice Cream For Ke$ha



Ice Cream For Ke$ha


    Hello. This episode starts with some nice sexual tension between Cat and Robbie. It warms my 12 year old heart.

   In season 1 everyone drank coffee, but now it's these big soda cups. It's much less cool. On the flip side- I don't know what happened, but all of the extras are now wearing fairly normal clothes. In fact, I haven't seen a single fedora. I think they must have gotten a new costume designer in or something, because all of the multi-layered outfits seem to be a thing of the past.

   Tori has the B-plot this episode where she is 'forced' to be Trina's assistant due to a contract made when they were 7. There's nothing actually binding Tori to doing this, she's just doing it out of good faith I suppose. Despite this, Tori makes another deal with Trina that if she gets a private performance by Kedollarsignha, she can stop being Trina's personal assistant. Once again, Tori can simply just stop helping Trina. Nothing is keeping her there.

  Luckily, Andre is part of some competition to win a concert by Ke$ha, where letters are hidden in ice cream and if you collect them all you win. The group- being the bunch of wealthy aristocrats they are, simply buys thousands of dollars worth of ice cream to sift through letters.

  They end up reading some announcement saying some other guy won.  Nothing happens for 5 minutes, and then in an extremely awkward scene Ke$ha posts a video saying that the other guy just faked the win or something. At first I coulden't tell why the actress was so bad, but it turns out they actually got Ke$ha for this.

  Nothing happens for a while again until they goto a convenience store to buy more ice cream. Tori just dumps the ice cream they buy on the floor- once again reinforcing the idea that she is a monster. 

They end up seducing and bribing a child into giving them the winning letter. Ke$ha shows up and does a very depressing looking concert before standing around and acting like an NPC from Oblivion for 30 seconds. 

It's an alright episode. It starts strong, but I feel like the writers were so hyped up over getting Ke$ha to guest star they forgot to write content for most of the episode. 8/10

Side Notes:

  • Robbie lifts and walks around with a 3x3 foot bucket of ice cream at one point. I can't be bothered to work out the math of the weight of that, but Robbie's deadlift game is insane.
