Fun, fun, for everyone!

"The next contestant loves the Powerpuff Girls, margaritas, and older men who take him for granted." ~Hostess

Fun, fun, fun! That's the only way I can think of to describe this episode, which is spent almost entirely in Babylon. Justin starts getting fed up with the way that Brian is treating him, so with a few words of advice, he decides to take things into his own hands. Blake and Ted blossom as a couple, while Brian signs David up for the King of Babylon contest. Emmett also meets a hot guy that is absolutely perfect, but they only know each other for one hour and forty-five minutes before things turn sour. Vic is also arrested for 'indecent exposure'. Add all of this into a blender, mix, and you have an extremely fun episode, especially the scene where the winner of the King of Babylon contest is crowned. I also loved all of the interactions between Justin and Brian, and I especially love how Justin is really coming into his own. So much fun!

Blake and Ted save this episode for me. I really love them as a couple. And I feel for Blake, it is sad how people treat him. This is the attitude that makes it hard for the addicts to make it. I am glad that at least Michael recognized it.

The King of Babylon was alright. I loved David dancing, he showed it to all who considered him old! But the fact that Justin won is just funny. Why would he win, he isn't sexy at all. Also I can't believe that someone would go for Justin over Brian and say that Brian is old!

Vic's story was kind of boring, the idea was good but not enough was done and Debbie was just irritating.

Emmett's story bored me as well. This wasn't a funny enough idea to stretch it all over the episode
