Unfortunately, I didn't get to see the previously on the Real World segment, due to some taping issues, but I'm sure they showed clips of Ruthie leaving and Teck with some women, since those are the major threads of this episode.
Wonder Bread and Teck are in the van, and Wonder Bread is saying that he wants to make Ruthie's return as comfortable as possible. He tells Teck that Annoying is nervous about Ruthie coming home. Teck says he's not nervous, but Ruthie knows someone that he knows. As Teck puts it, "She's messing with Malo." Wonder Bread says that he heard about that: "Is this the dancer at Exotic Nights?" By switching between a confessional and Wonder Bread and Teck's conversation in the van, we hear the following story from Teck: "The way Ruthie got Malo is, she met her and Malo said, 'You know Teck?' Ruthie said, 'Oh, you're one of the victims.' Malo said, 'What do you mean, victim?' and Ruthie said, 'One of his many women'." Teck goes on to point out that Ruthie is "trying to put salt in my game to get Malo."
Wonder Bread walks into the Colony Surf Hotel where all of his fantasies are about to come true. He walks into Ruthie's hotel room, and she is lying in bed with Malo. Rather than excuse himself so that she can make herself decent and they can have a normal conversation, he just barges in and hugs her. Ruthie is wearing that same black tank top and thong. This is starting to get gross. Ruthie makes me laugh by saying, "Nice haircut" to Wonder Bread and he replies, "It's the worst." You ain't kidding, brother! Ruthie introduces Matt to Malo. In a confessional, she tells us she broke up with Jess. Wonder Bread says he's happy that Ruthie is coming back to the house, and more than anything...he pauses here and makes that really annoying "surf's up" gesture again. Finally, he concludes that he's happy Ruthie feels that this break was good for her. Ruthie says that it was a good break, and that they didn't really talk about alcohol. It was more about her dreams. Wow, that sounds like a wonderful treatment facility. In a confessional, Ruthie says that she learned that nobody can tell you you're an alcoholic, and nobody can tell you whether to drink or not, that you have to tell yourself. I think maybe she got a little mixed up here. I think they meant that the first step is admitting that you have a problem, whereas Ruthie took it to mean that the first step is that you can do whatever you want.
