I Want To Work For Diddy Season 1 Episode 3 Recap

So this episodes starts with team Uptown (PoPrah and ‘nem) debating on who they will pick to join their team. Red suggests Mike, but Poprah thinks that OmaToni is a better pick because they can pimp her/him and she is an easy target.

The Red phones go off and tell them to pack their bags because they are headed to Los Angeles. First thing, Ditsy Boris forgets his phone charger and my crush Kendra feels bad and lends him hers. She is too nice to the forgettable fat boy.

Once they are settled Capricorn tells them that they are there to help Diddy with some things while he gets his star on the walk of fame. They are there to basically cater to Kim Porter and Him Mother Miss. Combs. Each team gets a person and will have to provide the hospitality suite, wardrobe AND get Diddy’s gift from them. Now don’t get me wrong but if my son or my child’s mother was getting something as special as a star on the walk of fame I would want to get that gift myself right? Why leave it to an assistant to get it? whatever.Anyway.

Now Uptown has to say who they pick as the new group member and they pick Laverne. As I said earlier, they picked her because they feel they can take advantage. Uptown gets Mama Combs, while Downtown gets Ms. Porter.

Poprah is already working her magic by electing Red as the team leader. They all seem to know that Poprah is setting him up but him. OmaToni sees right through her facade though.

Now Team Downtown is working with Boris taking over. He is actually getting things done. They are setting up the hospitality suite by doing a bunch of name dropping but it’s getting done nonetheless.

Omatoni and Red were lolly gagging in the store and of course Poprah is not happy because she’s not in charge. Uptown finally arrives at the suite and they are running around like crazy people trying to get the room set up when in walks mama Combs.. Uht oh! Luckily they have the stuff together.

Kim Porter comes in to meet downtown. She meets the crew and sends the girls down to check on the car and asks Boris and Mike to get her some ‘girly things’.. Are you serious? How is it that time of the month and you not have some in the stash? I mean they make them super small and everything.. Come on!

Back to team Uptown aka Poprah and nem. So Poprah is chopping it up with mama Combs and asks ” How do you like me to reference your son to you?” Without missing a step mama hits back with ” Oh I call him ‘Sean’. I’m quite sure you would have to call him ‘Mr. Combs’”. That’s the gotcha gotcha!!! Poprah’s face is like the funniest thing. Just that look of ‘I’ve just stuck my foot in my mouth and I can’t remove it’ look. She goes right back into questioning, and when mama Combs mentions that she wishes there was a southern restaurant around for breakfast she says ” I think we can make that happen”. How fool? You are in L.A. (Los Angeles) not LA (Louisiana)!

So we’re back with Downtown now. Kendra, Stefanie and Kim are waiting in the limo when the boys jump in with their nanny “Cheese”. True story. His name is “Cheese”, but the real question is why do these boys have a nanny in the first place? Anyway. Kim says that the girls are with Diddy, but she’s not sure. *sidebar: how do you not know where your kids are? Again why do they have a nanny? What does she do exactly?* So they call around to find out where they are.

Team Uptown takes Mama Combs out to find something to wear and she hates everything! While team downtown is helping Kim find a dress she sends Kendra and Stefanie to fins her some shoes. They find her some and when she gets to the shoe store she asks about the girls. Uht oh.. they never followed up on where the girls were! I think know that Kim knew where they were the whole time. Or at least lets hope for her sake. Kim decides not to do anything until they find her kids. Meanwhile Kendra’s battery is dying because she let forgetful Boris borrow it and he never gave it back.

OmaToni steps in and saves the day when she picks out an outfit for Mama Combs and of course Poprah is all in the mix like she did something. while this is going on Red and Suzanne are out to get Diddy a Crystal statue thingy from Kim.

Okay now Boris has me mad! He made my crush Kendra miss a call because he forgot his charger and being nice let him borrow it and couldn’t charge hers. They get a message on the red phone aka Bat phone telling her to check her messages. What call does she miss? Diddy’s!!! Yes and he was pissed!

Diddy calls Poprah to ask about his mom. She’s steady jaw jacking and kissing butt, so he promptly cuts her off and asks to speak to his mom and asks how they’re treating her and she says that they’re doing okay just not what she’s accustomed to. They say their goodbyes and she hands the phone back to Poprah. Poprah starts saying hello like he really wants to speak to her again and is talking to dead air.

Back with team downtown. The twins make an appearance and are stating to walk a little. The boys are in another suite throwing around a football. Why? Because they are Diddy’s Kids, That’s why. I’m still trying to figure out why Justin ran and hid under the table like Michael Jackson in ‘The American Dream: The Jackson 5 story’.

Boris and Mike go out to get Diddy a gift and stupid Mike is talking about getting Diddy an outfit. Are you serious? If they told you what to get rat pack type stuff, collectibles, memorabilia type stuff why would you get him a Biggie t- shirt and some jeans? Stupid! so Boris calls Kim’s assistant and she tells them again not to get no stinking clothes!

Now Poprah is trying to weasel her way out of the southern breakfast at a southern styled restaurant that she promised Mama Combs. Of course Mama Combs is not having that and promptly answers ‘no’ before she can even complete the sentence.

While both teams are out celebrating the success, or lack of, they receive messages to go pick up a package. while they are sitting there waiting, in walks Diddy. He talks about how competitive and hungry he is. He talks to them for like 5 minutes and kicks them out.

The next morning Mike has to wake Diddy’s kids AND cheese.. Wait and Cheese? These kids can’t even iron? If Cheese is the kids Nanny why is Mike doing the ironing and getting food? Anyway, one of the kids brings the wrong bag so Kendra and Stefanie have to go shopping for them.

Poprah is getting on Mama Combs’ nerves. It’s all in her face. It’s breakfast time and she does not have a southern breakfast ready. Plus Poprah touched her croissant with her bare hands.. Ewww!!! It’s 1 hour until the ceremony and her jewelry is not there.

Meanwhile back at team Downtown, they have 35 minutes to get everybody dressed and ready but they aren’t back with the clothes for the boys.
Team Uptown didn’t get security for Mama Combs and she is livid! Since they didn’t get it she has to go with Kim’s security because I guess the other team secured it for her.

Things at the ceremony go well, but it’s decision time! Kim and mama dish on how the teams were.
Kim:
Things they lacked organization and that they did a good job with the kids.
Mama:
The gift was a good idea. The fact that one point person instead of everyone all was great.

Team Poprah nem won the challenge and Boris blames his other teammates. during eliminations Boris says that Kendra held them back on this challenge and she quips back with Boris being weak. Mike thinks that Boris is also the weak link. Stefanie puts the blame on Kendra because her phone died (because of Boris). Looks like Boris and Kendra are going into the hot seat. Kendra pleads her case that at the end of the day she made it happen with Kim. Boris states that he is the one that made things happen. But Phil hits her with ‘but her phone was dead because you borrowed it’. He plays the ‘everyone is against me’, and throws them all under the bus! Allegedly Kendra wants to have sex with Mike and supposedly told Stefanie that she wants to have sex with Diddy. then he throws in that she’s a drunk. Wow!! If he doesn’t get sent home,they will never trust him ever again. Mike and Boris get into it and then he gets into with Kendra. How are you going to throw them under the bus like that and expect everything to be cool afterwards? So it’s decision time.. *cue the fake security guards* both get to stay! Both get to stay? What? So they both live another day, but I have a feeling that they will maybe throw a challenge just to get Boris out. the trust is gone. Until next week…
