"Teen Mom 2" Episode 4 Recap: Teenagers in Lurrrrve

My oh my this is one boring hour of television. I know I keep saying that, but I'm hoping MTV gets that 47 minutes of pensive teenage sighing on camera simply isn't entertaining. Give us some drama, already! C'mon! If I wanted to watch everyday life I'd pay attention to my own...

So let's recap this week's episode and the lives of Kailyn Lowry, Jenelle Evans, Chelsea Houska, and Leah Messer...

Leah
Corey and Leah are in love and happy. Good for them, totally boring for us. They took their daughters to the pool, and were nauseatingly cute all over the place...again, good for them, boring for us. At a barbecue, Corey asks Leah and the girls to move in him, and of course, because Leah is very 'white picket fence' motivated, she says, "yes" and a house hunting they go. Her mother isn't too keen on the idea, since they just went through a few difficult months of relationship drama, but Leah has a point. You can't exactly take it slow after you've had three kids.

Chelsea
Ok, this is going to sound kind of mean, but Chelsea is about as sharp as a marble. Adam's still around and helping a lot with Aubree, but it just seems like he's putting on a good show in order to get on the Houska Gravy Train to Easy Street. So the most riveting story on this episode tonight is the AC going out in Chelsea's house. Dad comes over to fix it, and in a display of maturity, vows to never speak to Adam if he sees him in his house. HIS house. Yeah, dude, you're kinda the one paying the bills, so YOU make the rules, right? Adam shows up with a new AC filter, and it's all totes awkward as the guys try to avoid each other. Adam asks Chelsea if he can move in (see? I told you the kid had an angle!) and since she's so in lurrrve, she says, "Yes. But let's not tell my Dad." Brilliant, Chelsea...well done.

Kailyn
Boy, I know this girl has it rough with the flaky mom and the jerk boyfriend with his jerk family, but could her affect be any flatter than the pancake we watch every week? Grimace, shrug, sigh, grimace, brow furrow, sigh, repeat. C'mon, Kail! Smile a little, would ya?! So this week, ex boyfriend Jo is still being a jerk, and pretty much demands Kailyn take hi out for dinner just for the privilege of sharing a meal with him. Since Jo couldn't get a new girlfriend before Kailyn got a new boyfriend, he decides to just make up with her so she doesn't make him look bad again. Sure he said a bunch of things about lurrrve and happiness, but let's be real here...face saving time. But Jo sort of redeems himself when Kailyn's tuition needs to get paid and since her mother's the worst person ever, he says yes so Kail can start college. I'll start the slow clapping now...

Jenelle
Well Jenelle is still...Jenelle... and her mom still screams at the top of her lungs about it. We hear on the voiceovers that Jenelle has been spending a ton of time with Jace, so it's no biggie deal if she goes out with a new guy Jack Bauer Keifer. Keifer is a catch and a half with the high school drop out status and all. Jenelle continues to set the bar high with her guys as always. So after a night of Bible Study, obviously, Jenelle returns home with hickeys on her. Classy. Naturally this causes good ol' Mom to go bananas and start screeching everywhere. Doors slam, and once again Jace is just stuck in the middle of these two nuts. Poor kid.

That's it for this week. Next week it might get a little interesting since it looks like everyone falls out of this sweet lurrve phase and starts fighting with each other. Until then, peeps!
