The majority of this episode takes place at the studio where Pslam is directing the shooting of the first Free The Nipple calendar. Babe, Michelle, Ashlynn, and Vikki are all there to pose for pictures, but no one has been able to get in touch with Rikki, who has also promised to participate. We see through a flashback scene that the day before Vikki and Rikki were working out together at a gym, where they both spotted some hot guy also working out, and Rikki called “dibs” on him, and went over and hit on him. She ended up going home with him and spent the night. We see them have sex which includes a split-second shot showing clear penetration, which once again pushes this series closer to hardcore territory than to softcore.

So I guess all that talk Rikki made in the previous episode about possibly falling in love with Ashlynn was just a phase?

Rikki wakes up late that morning at the man’s house and has to rush out the door and drive to the studio, but she doesn’t know the L.A. streets that well and there’s a lot of traffic. So it’s suspenseful as to if she’ll make it in time.

The photo shoot is dramatic due to a lot of forced drama, Pslam is constantly stressed out and complaining, even though she causes a lot of the drama. She gets herself spray-painted with gold paint for a shoot but then doesn’t like the way it looks and has to take a long shower to wash it all off. And since she’s supposed to be supervising the other shoots, the ladies are getting bored waiting around for her.

Finally, they get some shots done. Babe takes some pics with flowers painted on her chest. Then Psalm, Babe, Michelle, Ashlynn, and Vikki do a shoot posing together in matching prison jumpsuits. Rikki finally shows up just as they’re finishing and Psalm wastes a lot of time chewing her out for being late.

Then Vikki and Rikki do a shoot together. Then Ashlynn does a shoot with Aaron, that Black guy that Psalm went out with last episode. But Michelle is still suspicious about him since he stood her up years ago. During their shoot, Aaron gets very flirtatious with Ashlynn, who is receptive to his advances (I guess she’s over Rikki too, they don’t even directly interact in this episode), unaware of his history with either Michelle or Psalm. Michelle goes to tell Psalm, and when they come to confront him just as he exchanging phone numbers with Ashlynn, and Psalm says that even though they’re both single it’s highly disrespectful to be hitting on her friend right there during her photoshoot, and kicks him out.

Damn, brother, you blew it.

Then Michelle does a photoshoot with Dane, whom she rejected in the previous episode. They pose as if they’re having a professional boxing match. Psalm does a solo shoot dressed up as Rosie The Riveter. And finally the work is done. During this time Vikki admits to having gotten turned on by having her breasts painted and exposing her breasts all day, so she calls up Luke, that man she hooked up with in episode 3, But even though it’s good, she admits afterward that it’s not as good as it was with Kanan, whom she’s still thinking about.

With all the drama regarding Rikki being late, and both Vikki and Psalm being upset with her about it, this felt closer to typical “reality” shows, although none of the women tried to flip over any tables or fight each other. And if you’re a breast-man, this is the episode for you, as all six of the ladies’ breasts are prominently displayed multiple times.

I wish I could find a copy of that calendar they shot.
