Paradizzle.
Zack is back - or so they say...
FYI
- Paradise Hotel is scheduled to conclude with it's
2 hour season finale on Oct. 1, 2003
This
was actually a pretty good episode and was very entertaining
with only a few uncomfortable
moments. Remember
it is the beginning of the end... We find out who got
eliminated amongst the dudes and were taunted again with
the Zack is back thang. But there is another major twist
revealed at the end of this episode. You’ll just
have to read on (or jump to the bottom of this page).

Previously on Paradise Hotel
A decision by Dave forced rivals Alex and Charla to
room together.
The
guests receive the announcement that they were waiting
for.
Host Amanda tells us there will be no new guests checking
in to the hotel.
And in a twist the women were given the ultimate power
to vote off the men.
Behind
closed doors Charla had her doubts and put Keith's
plan in jeopardy.
Alex
ran wild with the women of paradise grabbing Tara’s
attention.
And
in a surprise the ladies were given even more power. They’d
decide which one of the men would be safe from eviction.
Scott is the ladies
choice to be given
immunity.
Scott’s
free pass revealed how fragile the alliance between
Keith, Dave, Tara and
Charla really is.
Tonight the couples take one step closer to the ultimate
prize.

On with the episode.
Room
assignments as follows: Alex and Charla. Dave and Tara.
Tom and Desiree. Amy and Scott.
 The ladies are still being sucked up to...
Monkey boy Tom (who oddly enough hasn’t
been showing off his monkey much lately) was up early
setting up breakfast
in bed for all the ladies. Dave appears and is questioning
what is going on. Looks like Dave was one upped.

Tom delivers a meal to Holly who seems
impressed. Next a meal goes to Tara who thinks it is
so sweet. She recites
her “line” perfectly and says “So sweet – breakfast
in bed – I love paradise”. Boy that one is
destined to be a black and white flashback.
Next
meal goes to Amy who thinks it is so sweet. Kiss kiss.
Keith
and Desiree are chatting. Tom busts in with breakfast
in bed. Desiree confronts Tom about
saying he trusted
Amy the most at pandora’s box the night before.
Keith
is with Tara and is saying he is so pissed that Amy
was controlling the immunity choice last night. Keith
wanted Scott off big time and now Scott has immunity.
Tara is mad too (or is she just doing a little bad
acting?).
It’s time to get all weepy for Dave as he is in
the room with Charla and will no doubt get hurt by her.
In bed with her hair up in a bun (so sexy Charla), she
begins to tell Dave that she hasn’t had sex in
two and a half months. Dave responds “none of us
have”. SEE! I KNEW IT! No release activities allowed
at the Hotel Paradizzle!
She follows with “But I went from having sex every
day for 3 years straight to not having sex in two and
a half months”. Dave is put on the spot. Charla
says she is gonna die. Dave says Charla could have had
sex here if she chose to and Charla asks who??? Poor
Dave... He’d have been more than willing to spend
an hour on the tower of power with Charla but no – she
doesn’t see it the way Dave does. Charla after
all is repulsed by the thought of Dave’s skin touching
hers. And he just doesn’t get it. Poor Dave is
emasculated by the scheming Charla. She goes on to stick
the dagger in even further. Dave is hurt. She doesn’t
take his bait. He gave it a try but Charla acts all dumb
and stuff and makes a phony gesture towards him. Dave
looked especially pale (even though it was grainy night
vision footage – you could feel his paleness).
Dave
requests that all the boys join him in the bathroom.
He tells of his song Girls of Paradise which he sings
to the gents. This is one of those queasy uneasy blotel
paradizzle moments.
Suddenly
the group is on a boat and Tara says this is paradise...
another line well rehearsed and executed (or at least
it seems that way).

They
all jump off the boat into the water
and splash around. A meal on the beach brings the
group closer together. Lunch on a table on a secluded
beach somewhere in Mexico.

But
wait – a flashback of Zack
and Amy. Amy trashes Keith. Keith tries to convince
her that in his position she would have done the
same thing. He tells her his decision was right.
More
frivolity and beach play.
 Keith
is dry humping Charla in the water. Dave is watching
disgusted and vents
with Holly. But Holly advises Dave to not say a word.
Dave restrains himself as Keith continues to lick and
simulate fondling with Charla. Perfect PG-13 TV. But
in a bold TV moment Charla grabs her own boobs. Thump!
There – look at me – I grabbed my boobs!
Dave is ready to explode and vents by dashing into the
water and making big splash as the crowd oohs and aahhhs.
Poor Dave. He has to watch as the others have fun – especially
how much fun Charla is having with Keith.
But
that’s
OK, before you know it they are back in their rooms
at the blotel and Scott is in Dave's room
prodding him as to what’s up... Nice touch actually
that Scott would take a moment to encourage jealous Dave
that all is well. They discuss how Dave should not drill
anybody
about Charla and should suck it up and bite his tongue.
Good advice actually.
Charla
calls Dave and says she was checking to see if he was
ok and says that she cares about him.
A hurting
Dave says OK and brushes her off quickly. You can feel
his pain – but hey it’s his own fault for
buying into the theory that he would get laid as a guest
on Paradise Hotel. Nobody gets laid in paradise... Certainly
not dudes with man-boobs.
Alex and Charla discuss Dave. Alex says
Dave needs to loosen up a bit. It seems like the two
are actually acting
civil and having a conversation. Surprise – Alex
and Charla really do like each other. Well, lets not
over react, but they are getting along.
Desiree and Tom are having a discussion. They bond and
revel in that they are the two new people. They are with
each other till the end.

Flashbacks of various scenes of Alex dissing the other
guests.
Alex
tries to get info from Charla about the upcoming vote
off. But she doesn’t give any
info. She wanders to the bathroom and we are treated
to some commercials.Those commercials are so edumuhcational
after all.
Paradizzle butler dude delivers a note. Keith reads
it aloud. A night of moonlight dancing for the dudes
to show the ladies their devotion.
It’s
disco time. One of those cheesy Paradizzle moments
that kinda makes me queasy. The
guests arrive
and are already twisting and such to the beat. All seem
to be having fun drinking and such.
We
see Scott putting his best lines to work on Holly saying
he’d rock her world. Cheese! 
Desiree
rides Tom like he is a mechanical bull. A bare chested
Keith puts the moves on a giggling Charla. Poor
sweaty Dave looks on and pouts as he watches Charla enjoy
herself.
After the disco ball we see Dave and
Charla talking in the bedroom. Charla acts like they
don’t have
anything to talk about but pouty Dave aint lookin’ so
happy. He storms out. That’ll show her!
 Scott is chatting with Keith and is advising
him that he should back off of Charla as Dave is obviously
not
too keen to their antics. Keith defends his actions with
Charla and says that if Dave can’t handle it that’s
too bad. He says nothing is happening between me and
Charla. Keith obviously does not like hearing this stuff
from “top dog” Scott, but ends up nodding
his head.
Poor old Dave. Too bad he doesn’t get it that
Charla isn’t turned on by him. But hey – it
does add drama to paradise... We see Dave in a flashback
saying “obviously she doesn’t have those
feelings for me back”. So why get all emotional
Dave? Your vulnerability could hurt you in the game.
Tom catches Dave and gives him an insincere
pitch as to how he feels wonderful about going into
battle with
him and Keith telling Dave that they have been “his
boys”. He appreciates them being honest with him.
Yeah, right... They shake hands.

Tara is in the sack with Alex again.
Blurry, grainy black and white footage show them foolin’ around.
Dave and Keith are now talking. Keith
lets him know he is close to Charla – he’s “friends” with
her. Dave apologizes. They have a tender moment. I feel
better that they have talked.
Butler dude is making the rounds and dropping off notes
to the boys of Paradizzle. Today one of the gentlemen
will be leaving Paradise Hotel. Pack them bags and be
ready to boogie. Charla teases Dave that he better pack
well. Dave gives us his famous nervous smile and darts
off.
Tara and Charla are talking. Tara tells
of “cuddling” last
night with Alex and feeling bad that she was thinking
all along “sayonara”. Charla tries to get
Tara to confirm that “she’ll do it”.
I didn't hear her say no.
Dave is telling Charla that they can’t let Tara’s
crush on Alex affect who gets voted off tonight. Dave
is worried that she might change her mind at the last
minute. Desiree is the swing vote. Drama at Hotel Paradizzle.
Alex tells the camera that he, Tom and Keith all have
an equal shot of going home tonight. OK, whatever you
say dude.
Keith tells the camera that he hopes
that Tara doesn’t
betray him and that he has been planning to go all the
way with her.
It’s
night time and the torches are burning just like a
Survivor tribal council. The
couples enter and
the groups form. The guys and the ladies on each side
as Amanda sets up the elimination. Scott is the only
one that is safe.
The guys are sweating. Scott says the game is getting
tougher and tougher.
Host Amanda tells the guys they have a last chance to
say whatever they want to the ladies. Dave sets up his
song and starts to sing. Another uneasy moment at Blotel
Paradise...
 I
will spare you the cheesy lyrics but lets just say
Dave kisses up to the girls of paradise.
Arggghhhh....
The girls are laughing. Flashbacks ensue and the rest
of the boys join in for the ending. Clap...
The
fun is
over guys. Now it’s time to
find out which of the gentleman the ladies want to
send home.
Host Amanda asks Charla which dude she’d
like to see split... she answers Alex.
Holly votes for Keith. Gasp.
Desiree
wants to see Alex leave.... 2 votes Alex and 1 vote
for Keith.
Amy adds another for Keith. Bad flashback of an enraged
Amy yelling at Keith.
2 votes for Keith – 2 votes for
Alex.
It is now up to Tara. Who will she send home??? I smell
a commercial break.... Yep.... commercials.

Who
will it be Tara? Keith or Alex???
Tara tells Alex he is wonderful and they suit each other
personality wise.
She
tells Keith that they are close.
This isn’t personal – Tara
selects Alex to go home.
Sad
piano tinkling plays and we see that
grumpy Amy face. Tara wants to cry but sucks it in.
Alex
is the dude to pack his bags and leave Paradise Hotel
forever.
Alex
says his farewell piece as flashbacks of his stay from
episode 1 to current flip about the screen.
I didn’t like
Alex much but I almost feel bad he is leaving. But hey – that’s
life at the Blotel. Someone must go.

Alex
says something to each of the guests... to Tara - he
does not take it personal. He actually handles the
departure
admirably.
Not bad dude. You left in style considering how wormy
your behavior has been in the past.
He departs to check out of paradise (what
happened to “forever”?)
After the break,,,
Desiree
is falling apart. She tells Tom she doesn’t
trust Charla and Tara. No shit Sherlock! You’re
one of the last 4 remaining ladies on Paradizzle – you
shouldn’t trust any of them girlfriend! She weeps
for Alex and sets up Charla for future shenanigans. Tom
whispers “personally, I don’t like Dave”.
No need to whisper Tom – you are in your room!
What, are you afraid Dave might hear and start gunning
for you?
Tara tells the camera she is worried
about Tom and Desiree going against them. She says
if they do “watch
out!”

Keith and Charla are gloating about being
in the power position. Charla says “I like it”.
In the ladies room Desiree tells Amy
she wants to send Charla home. Desiree says Charla’s making moves
on Tom too. Right! Charla going for monkey boy – don’t
stink so! So much for Desiree and Charla’s pinky
pact.
The true colors of the guests are emerging.
Amy
tells Scott she is surprised at Tara because it was
so clear that she and Alex had a thing.
Tara
is telling the camera – talking to Alex and
says “You lie – you cheated – you stole – boom – you’re
out”. Sneaky Tara. I wouldn’t trust Tara
with the key to my house – but hey – it’d
sure be nice to squeeze that skinny little butt of hers
in as a booty call!
Amy compares the Tara decision to when Keith befriended
Zack and then stabbed him in the back. Bad grainy black
and white flashbacks of Zack ensue.
Uh
oh... a limo pulls up to Hotel Paradizzle and we see
a close up of size 12 shoes getting out...
the butler
dude welcomes back “Mr. Zack” to paradise.
Oh no! Mr. Zack is back!

He joins the others to screams “OH NO!” and
the episode closes of course.
But
naturally we see this episode come to a conclusion
and are then treated to a teaser for
next week’s
episodes.
Zack
is back and with revenge on his mind... He wants to
have his weight lifting buddies help him
beat up Keith... Poor Keith - Zack is going to stalk
him after the season ends.
And
in an “incredible twist” we learn ALL
THE ELIMINATED GUESTS ARE BACK! Huh? Even bug eyed
Toni will be back??? Geezus!
They’ve been watching the show and know everything
that is going on and will tell all about the secrets!
Look out – this could be crazy!
Curiosity peaked? The season is coming
to a close and the action is heating up. Looks like
we can’t miss
the next episode of Paradise Hotel, can we?
