Dirty Sexy Money: Twincapades
So the most recent episode of “Dirty Sexy Money” seemed a bit slow.
Brian’s wife finally found out that Gustaf, the orphan living with them, was really Brian Jr. She demanded a divorce, but later agreed to consider giving him another chance. Brian and Brian Jr ended up moving into the Darling mansion until she makes her decision.
Nick learned that Simon Elder probably is the mysterious C from his dad’s meeting book, based on the fact that his license plate is simply the letter C. Simone claims Dutch was about to quit working for Tripp and come work for him. He suggested Nick do the same, and once again put the suspicion for the accident back on Tripp.
Most of this episode centered around Jeremy and Juliet’s 25th birthday party, at which they came into a 25 million dollar trust fund from Letitia’s father. They proceeded to spend about 2 million each on separate parties, as they were still feuding over Jeremy and Natalie. Juliet learned Natalie was pregnant, and basically exposed to her brother she wasn’t. This made Jeremy realize most of his friends were so because of his money. Juliet came to a similar realization with her friends. Meanwhile Tripp was furious they can’t spend wisely and decided to defer their trust funds till the age of 30, almost taking Jeremy’s away for good. By the end of the episode though Jeremy made his dad proud by asking for a job.
Tripp made several comments about how the twins were not like the other children, how they only cared about things and the money and the parties. He also even wanted to take their money from them. Hmmmm. Meanwhile Jeremy and Juliet had a heart to heart, both wondering what their lives would be like if they didn’t have all the money. The show pretty much dropped a lot of clues that they may be Dutch’s kids.
The thing that I don’t get is why is Tripp the one deciding if the twins get the trust fund money? The money comes from the wife’s side of the family, so even if Tripp is not the father, it shouldn’t matter. Why wasn’t she there to put her two cents in? To me, none of that made sense.

I loved that Brian Jr. finally “outted” his father. And seeing Brian (the elder) become a bit more human was nice — can’t be an a$$ all the time.
The b-day parties were disgusting. But has anyone noticed the obvious lack of paparazzi? Wouldn’t Jeremy and Juliet be stalked like crazy, if they’re so popular? I was waiting for Jeremy’s horrible concert on the bridge to be splashed across the tabloids, further fueling Tripp’s anger.
I still really like this show. I like that there’s a voice of reason: Nick. Seeing all the drama in the celeb scene (Britney, LiLo, etc.), all I want to do is grab these people and shake them back to reality. It’s sort of like I get to do that via Nick. Too bad it’s just a fictional TV show…
Hey! There’s an idea for a reality show if this strike happens! Where do I submit ideas?
