Episode 26: A date with the past
Posted on April 29, 2008 by amacpherson
Lauren, Lo and Audrina tour their new house, which is, as they exclaim five times, "so pretty!" Audrina will apparently be living in the guesthouse instead of in the main house with the others. "Are you going to be O.K. staying back here?" Lauren asks.

They made it out of Teen Vogue's closet, but Lauren and Whitney still have to fold clothes – as we open, they're doing just that at People's Revolution. As usual, they're discussing Lauren's social life as they work. Lauren's worried that Audrina's recent spate of outings with Heidi will lead to more home visits. "I can't tell [Audrina] what to do in her home," Lauren says, "but at the same time, it's my home as well, and I don't want people in there that I don't get along with."

Despite assuring Lauren last week that she had no intention of befriending Heidi, Audrina is all too quick to accompany her to lunch when Heidi shows up at Epic Records. Heidi is grateful and doesn't mind showing it. "You don't know how nice it is to be able to talk to you again," she gushes. She invites Audrina along on a girls' night out – "No boys, no Spencer," she declares. I'm sure that plan will work out perfectly.

As the show opens, Whitney is busy recapping her New York trip for Lauren, detailing all of her backstage duties. "That's like my ideal job," Lauren says wistfully. "I know," Whitney replies. "I mean, while I was doing it, I was like, 'Lauren would be loving this right now.'"

Post–computer class. Lauren invites Steph and her fluffy bangs to her 22nd birthday bash. Steph clearly wants to go (who wouldn't, when the alternative is hanging out at home with Spencer?), but shockingly, she doesn't want to cause any drama. "Are you sure you really want me there? I mean, I am Spencer's sister," she says. "I don't care if you're Spencer's sister," Lauren replies. "I'm not gonna dislike someone because of their blood."

We open in Lauren's computer class at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising. Her instructor is calling the roll. "Lauren? Hey, Lauren. Daniella, her last name is Usher? Hi. Stephanie Pratt?" Lauren's eyes widen as Spencer's sister makes a fashionably late entrance and takes a seat only two down from hers. "The first day, it's difficult for some people," the instructor says. Lady, you don't know how right you are.

"Sometimes going away gives you a different perspective on things. But when you come home, everything is different," Lauren says in her opening voiceover. She illustrates this point by letting Audrina know that she's over Brody now. Yep, she's totally over him. Doesn't care about his new "girlfriend" at all. Certainly won't cause a scene the next time she sees him. Nope.
