The Hills: With This Ring…

The show opens up with Heidi and Spencer talking about their wedding. Spencer wants to elope to Cabo. She wants it in a church. Spencer wants to throw his hands up in the air and tells her that “It is on you. You decide. Just tell me what day to be there. I’ll wear a suit.” Heidi replies with “Great!” in a sarcastic tone. I don’t know how she can continue to put up with him.

We’re at the gym with Audrina, Lauren, and Whitney. They are working out with trainer, Jarett. They invite Jarett to Big Wangs or Big Waynes. I don’t know which one. Lauren gives Whitney a look about Jarett. Whitney has no expectations when it comes to guys. Lauren wants to get Whitney back in the game - the dating game that is.

We’re at Westminster Presbyterian Church in LA and Spencer and Heidi are checking it out to see if they want to get married there. First impressions are that it is beautiful. Spencer sings “here comes the bride…”. Heidi comments on how pretty it is - the high ceilings and stained glass. They speak with one of the pastors and she tells them about their wedding package which begins with pre-marital counseling which is required. They need to book 6 months out and she recommended a wedding co-ordinator. Spencer sits down in a pew and has this weird look on his face. I can’t tell if he is being sarcastic or what, but he is sportin’ this huge joker’s smile. He’s just weird.

We’re at Lauren and Audrina’s apartment and Whitney is getting ready with the girls for her “date” with Jarett. Lauren checks out Whitney’s outfit asking her if she realizes that they are going to a sports bar. Apparently, the outfit is some type of peach/pink lingerie number with tights and moccason’s? Whitney is a little weird in the fashion department, but what do I know. That’s her job. Lauren sorta goes through Whitney’s makeup bag stating she’s “au naturelle”. Audrina asks her about going through Whitney’s bag and Lauren gets a “deer in headlights look” on her face and quickly tosses the bag aside on the bed while saying “no, I was just looooking.” It was a funny moment. Audrina said Whitney looks cute for Jarett. I think she looks hideous in that get up.

Ok, they are at Big Wangs - I confirmed it. They are drinking some beers. Jarett is there and he says “What’s up Whitney?” totally singeling her out.  Audrina and Lauren whisper how cute they are together. Lauren gives Whit two thumbs up. Jarett asks Whitney what she is doing for the weekend and kinda asks her out. Lauren and Audrina clink glasses.

We’re at Runyon Canyon with Jarett and Whit. They are hiking and look at the Hollywood sign. He is making her do jumping jacks. I guess he is training her and they are not really in a date. She’s now punching and he states she throws a mean punch and how he wouldn’t want to mess with her. Yeah right - he is really flattering her. He asks her out to get drinks at night - yep, it will be a date. Cute!

We’re at Heidi and Spencer’s apartment and she is flipping through magazines stating she definitely wants to wear a crown - because ya know, Heidi - that is the kind of princess you are - yeah right! Spencer comments on Heidi’s buying of Bride Magazines and seems a bit annoyed although he told her he wasn’t. He is pretty peculiar that Spencer. He just wonders why she needs the magazines - duh Spencer!

At the Teen Vogue Offices, Whit and Lauren discuss Jarett. She doesn’t even want to think about it b/c it just a first date. Lauren had to burst her bubble stating first dates can be really uncomfortable. Way to be positive, Lauren.

We’re out with Jarett and Whitney on their date as they visit La Cantina for drinks. He tells her she is dressed beautifully. She comment she doesn’t go to Hollywood much, but only goes and dances. He wants to go dancing with her since she mentions it. He interrupts her and asks her what her sign is. She doesn’t know. He seems a bit hyperactive. She asks him what his dream is - he just wants to train.  He talks pretty fast. She asks him how he is able to date being as busy as he is. He just got out of a relationship and is just having fun. Hmmm. Whitney doesn’t want to be attached and enjoy herself - not sure if that is true or not.

Back to Heidi and Spencers apartment - he welcomes her home and calls her sweetheart. He asks how work was and she responds with long, boring, and tired. He tells her she can sleep in the car as they are going on an adventure - he packed for her. They are going to Las Vegas to get married according to Spencer. Heidi’s face - poor girl - it looks like her dreams are going up in the flames right before her eyes.  She asks him if he already paid for it and really hopes that he is kidding. She doesn’t want to elope. He just wants to get married because it just about them. Heidi wants her family there - it means a lot to her. She doesn’t understand how he doesn’t get it or care about her feelings. She’s sick of the surprises and is sick of the fighting about wedding planning. She puts her ring on the books and says “maybe we should just think about it longer” as she goes into the other room. He holds the ring looking at it and gets up and walks out taking a suitcase with him.

At Bolthouse with Heidi and Kimberly, event coordinator, Heidi tells her about her fight with Spencer. Kimberly tries to listen and give advice. She suggests they put everything out on the table and says “sorry” with no I’m in front of it. I hate when people do that - it sounds so impersonal.

Lauren and Whitney are at lunch. Whit is sharing her first date experience with her stating she was pretty comfortable. They talk about what he was wearing - she wans’t into his shoes. She got the friend vibe from him. They ended the date with “no kissing”. Whitney has no rule for first date kissing and asks Lauren how that works if someone has a no kissing rule. Lauren tells her to turn her head to the side. Whitney seems pretty green to this whole dating thing. I guess we don’t know a lot about Whitney as she likes to keep her private life private. It is nice to see her out and about showing us some personal stuff.

Back to Heidi and Spencer - she is unpacking take out or groceries or something. Spencer comes in and she asks where she slept last night. He said at his parents house. He gives her red roses and she just puts them on the counter. He wants to call a truce. She wants him to apologize - which he does. She rehashes last night and couldn’t believe he left. He gives her the ring back  so she can wear it - as all he wants to do is marry her.

Next time on the The Hills - Enter Spencer’s sister and she is going off on Lauren about hating Spencer stating she hates Lauren too. UGH! More drama! Justin Bobby was over at the bar kissing some random girl and Audrina catches them. Oops! She confronts them - good for her - and she is seen pushing the girl and saying that she’s done. She’s done that alot though so we shall see if she really is done. In the last scene she is hugging him stating that she can’t see or talk to him as that is the only way she can move on. We’ll see, Audrina!
