That's Amore! › Ep. 101

Domenico's ready to take another shot at finding his own true amore, and now he has 15 straight, love- struck girls to choose from. The girls arrive at Domenico's mansion in all-out Italian style; stepping out of Italian-flag colored vans wearing nothing but bikinis and stilettos. Domenico rescues his 15 scantily-clad ladies from the pouring rain and invites them inside, where they meet his best friend and fellow cast-off of Tila Tequila, Ashley.

Before Domenico can start to get to know the girls personalities, he has to address one question that is essential to true love: are these girls boobs real? After he scrutinizes and squeezes a couple sets, he gets down to business and talks one-on-one with the girls. Not surprisingly, there's already drama in the house. Kim has decided that Hunter, with her small boobs, ugly knee-high stockings, and unshaved bikini-bottom region, is just not hot enough for Domenico. So she cuts short their chat session and cuts into line for her time with her man, giving him his first kiss in the house.

Kim's behavior isn't the only foul thing in the house; the girls have started to notice a mysterious odor wafting through the room. Domenico discovers the source of the smell during his one-on-one conversation with Kristen. Domenico tries to stay his sweet Italian self and tells Kristen he wants to smell her armpits because he likes the sweet aroma coming from them. But once she lifts her arm, Domenico can't hide his disgust. Luckily, the next girl Domenico gets a whiff of, Kathleen, practices good hygiene. Pleased with this positive change of scents, Domenico and Kathleen's smelling-session turns into a mini-make out session, where Kathleen admits that she's a virgin. But this doesn't deter Domenico; Kathleen can still give him true amore!

As the champagne keeps flowing, conversation turns catty and competition climbs for Domenico's full attention. Domenico starts to get overwhelmed when the girls try to grab him for kisses. Apparently this Latin Lover isn't ready to be a full time player; he prefers to play hard to get. For a change of pace and scenery, Domenico dons his "That's amore" Speedo and invites the girls to join him for a pool party. The girls crowd around Domenico in the pool as he spills his story about his ex girlfriend, who broke his heart by cheating on him six months before their wedding. Somehow managing to pull himself out of the pool and away from the sympathetic girls, Domenico wishes them all a good-night, adding as an afterthought that he hopes they all enjoy their room. That's right, these 15 feuding femmes are being forced to all sleep in one room!

The next morning, a pizza box is delivered to the door. But instead of a pizza, the box contains 5 green, 5 white, and 5 red t-shirts, and an invitation from Domenico for the girls to come outside and enjoy some spaghetti and meatballs. The girls go outside to discover that Domenico has even more tricks up his sleeve; instead of plates and silver wear, the spaghetti and meatballs await them in a giant wading pool. Domenico challenges the girls to show how much they love his meatballs: one girl at a time from each team must jump into the pool of pasta, put as many meatballs as possible in her mouth, and then empty them into a bowl. The winning team, whoever has the most balls...and meatballs, wins a date with Domenico that night. Domenico steps the stakes up a notch when he tells the girls that not only will there be elimination that night, but he will be saying 'Ciao bella' to five unlucky girls.

The 'meatball madness' begins, and quickly turns into a slippery spaghetti wrestling match, with Domenico cheering them on to fight harder and get more meatballs in their mouths. When time runs out, assistant Ashley counts the meatballs and announces the winner: the red team with 220 meatballs.

Domenico creates a winter wonderland snow party in the yard for his date. The girls discuss over hot chocolate and sledding how the house is divided between blondes with fake boobs and themselves, the brunettes who are 'the real girls.' Domenico tries again to have a one-on-one conversation with each girl, but Hunter starts a rumor inside that he's kissing all the girls outside and everyone's about to get naked. Talor won't stand for any non-blonde girl touching her gorgeous Italian, and rushes outside to see what's going on. But Domenico sends her back inside, commenting that she can't come outside because she lost the challenge. He adds insult to injury when he says that her mouth just isn't big enough for Italian meatballs.

Domenico ends the date and heads upstairs to deliberate with Ashley which five girls should be sent home. The guys discuss how Kristen's offensive armpits, Hunter's weird personality, and Talor's less-than-luscious mouth may be a problem in Domenico's search for true amore. Taking everything into consideration and realizing he can't afford to make mistakes when it comes to amore, Domenico call the girls downstairs. The girls are all nervous, except for Kim, who is confident she'll not only be staying, but will also be pushing Hunter out the door. Domenico presents the first three Italian flags with the question "Will you be my Bombina?" to three blondes: Missy, Kim, and Taylor. Tension and tears amount as Domenico gets down to the final six and asks them to step forward. After a long, painful pause, Domenico says 'ciao' to Hunter, Kristen, Dominique, Katherine, and Nicole. Before Hunter even has a chance to say goodbye, Kim forcefully walks her to the door. The remaining ten lucky girls join hands and Italian flags and do a celebratory dance around the room. Now that's amore!
