15x18 - Ew, Scabies!

[bunniefuu]

Previously onThe Real World:So I've been told

that everyone is aware of the project

that you're going to do?Yes.

Our special project is

to build a playground on the premises of Northern Home.

WILLIE: So you don't need me to work on anything particular?

MELANIE: Landon likes to take control of things.

I'm sorry if you feel like you were left out.

It's not my fault.

I'm not out to make you guys look bad.

I am out to do a good job.

This is the true story...

...of seven strangers...

Oh, my God.

...picked to live in a house...

...work together, and have their lives taped...

...to find out what happens...

I'm over it.

...when people stop being polite...

Oh, shut up.

...and start getting real.

ALL: The Real World: Philadelphia.

What the [bleep] is this?

Like, honestly, what is that?

It's really itchy

and it looks like little red bumps.

It's all over my body.

They really do look like chigger bites.

They look like little pimples.

I have no clue what they are.

It's, like, all,

it's, like, all around here.

I know, I'm, like...

Circles her nipple.

It does.

It's awful. It's horrible.

It possibly could be like from being in the weeds,

having the allergic reaction to, like, something in there.

LANDON: So it's, like, on friction points.

Like, obviously if you wear shorts here

and then your waistband here.

And then, like, a tank, a bra?

It looks like a cross between acne and chicken pox.

They're just like little pimples.

That's where it started.

Don't wear, don't wear underwear

for today or something like that.

Look.Good idea.

Just, yeah, don't wear a bra or underwear today.

Just, like, air it out a little bit.

Hang out.

[both laugh]

What I need from you--

and this can be as basic as a napkin sketch,

I need you to actually draw on paper the actual plan.

Where physically will the playground sit?

Where will you have benches?

I need it as soon as possible.

You're going to have to have your final plans and thoughts

all in writing, then you make a presentation

back to me, the Soul,

and the other folks at the Northern Home.

M.J.: We're really going to have

to sell our idea to the Soul.

If they approve it, then that's when we start

putting a little elbow grease into it.

MELANIE: Donna's taking me to the doctor,

because I have an intense

itchy rash all over my body.

♪ It was summer

♪ And degrees

♪ And in this weather

♪ Only two things grow, or three ♪

♪ Frustration, hot tempers

♪ And disease.

What did they say?

Something gross. What?

I don't even want to say it.

LANDON: Whatever. It's not gross.

It's so gross.

BOTH: What is it?

Scabies.

MELANIE: I have scabies.

I feel really disgusting and gross, and like I'm a leper.

How'd you get it?

You can catch it from anyone.

Like when you handshake.

LANDON: So we can catch it from you?

M.J.: Holy [bleep],

I shook your hand today.

I think, yeah.

Scabies are little bugs.

It's body lice.

If I break out with these

things, I'm going to freak.

[Melanie laughing]

You guys.

For real? Be nice.

LANDON: We are, but I don't want to catch it.

It's not my fault. I'm not a dirty person.

You dirty h*. You dirty h*.

I'm not. I'm clean.

Don't touch me.

Scabies, man.Ask her what she has.

What is it?

MELANIE: Shut up! I hate everybody.

What's scabies?I hate you all.

Scabies?

LANDON: It's what Mel has.

What's scabies?

Just don't touch me, okay?

And that's when I knew, Melanie had scabies.

Shut up!

Is it on your n*pples?

MELANIE: Shut up.

LANDON: I know somebody that has scabies!

[buzzing]

[horns beeping]

[phone rings on line]

WOMAN [on phone]: Dr. Bolno's.

Hi, um, is Donna or Charles there?

Hold on, please.

Hello?Hi, this is Melanie.

Hi. How are you feeling?

Um, I'm okay.

Is the itching better?

Um, yeah, it's better.

I mean, it's not spreading anymore?

I don't think so.

I haven't noticed any new spots.

Right. I'm going to come over tonight

and just tell them what to do

as far as the house is concerned.

I'm very worried about my roommates contracting scabies.

We live in very close quarters.

All right, we'll see you tonight.

Take care. Bye-bye, now.Bye, bye.

He's coming over tonight to, like, talk to everybody

and tell everybody that they should probably wash

and spray down the whole house.

LANDON: So like one or two words.

SARAH: How can you say "Meeting with D.R. Horton

and Lipinsky Landscaping" in two words?

Meeting with associates.

Do what you want.

No, I'm just saying, for more, like...

No, you can do it.

No, that's okay.

I'll just work on something else.

SARAH: That's fine, I don't really care what we do.

There's no middle road.

With me? In general.

Like, if it's not your way, it's the highway.

Landon has a tendency to take things by the reins

and not allow other people to do it.

I'm willing to negotiate and you're getting pissed at me

because I'm saying do what you want.

I'm just trying to talk to you.

I've done a lot of PowerPoints.

Okay, and then I'm saying,

"Okay, do it that way then."

LANDON: I want you guys to trust me and just sit back

and listen to what I have to say

because I know the steps.

This is my passion.

I just feel like I'm second-guessing my research.

How am I second-guessing you?

Because you're just, like, listing things already.

Like, "This has to be included,"

well, you haven't even listened to what I've already included,

you know?

Well, then just do it. God.

Landon...

Why do we have to fight about everything?

I'm very serious about my profession

and I want to do a good job on this and I want

Laura and Tim and Donna and Anthony

to be blown away

by our end product.

I don't know how to work PowerPoint.

Will you do it, please?

[phone ringing]

WILLIE: Scabies Central.

Where's Mel?

WILLIE: Where's Mel?

Mel went to the store?

Should she be going there and, like, spreading scabies?

Mel has scabies.

I can't believe this.

Can they live in carpets?

[laughing]

Yeah. The doctor's coming over.

They're going to spray our house.

They're going to spray the house.

It's like lice.

Sheets, everything.

Oh, God.

I'm such a queen about ... like that.

Oh, my God.

I'm really nervous because I've never had

body lice issues ever in my life.

Nothing has ever

crawled up my skin or in any crevice.

Oh, my God.

Help me. I'm freaking out.

SARAH: We need to clean the house, anyway.

I feel gross in this house.

It's just so gross in this house.

What?[shrieking]

See, then when something like scabies happens,

it just feels like they could be hiding anywhere.

Honestly, I think scabies

is the best thing to ever happen to this house,

because it's a ... pigsty.

My face is itching.

Yeah. Stop it.

[screaming]

[screams ]

Bugs!

Bugs!

That is the most

disgusting thing I've encountered personally

in quite a long time.

I'm taking a shower right now.

Oh, there's a bug right there.

Oh, my God, ew!

I'll vacuum. I'll disinfect.

WILLIE: So disgusting.

♪ Pass it around, pass it around ♪

♪ Pass it around, pass it around ♪

♪ Everybody say, "Hey, hey, pass it around." ♪

Get mine good, 'cause I don't know,

there might be more than scabies on mine.

Scabies has

infested our house.

We need to wash all

of our bedding, all of our clothing.

We need to spray down all the fabric.

Like, uh, sofas and chairs.

How did all of y'all get it?

It's contagious.

Oh, my God.

We got to throw all the [bleep] out.

They're throwing out all our pillows

and sheets and everything.

Scabies are crabs, right?

Nah, they're like lice that seep into your blood.

I'm disgusted.

Scabies, what the [bleep] are lice on..., ugh.

[laughing]

Catching scabies. Who has that in , seriously?

Scabies!

♪ Pass it around, pass it around ♪

♪ Pass it around, pass it around ♪

♪ Everybody sing, "Hey, hey, pass it around" ♪

Landon! Watch out! Scabies!

♪ Everybody sing, "Hey, hey, pass it around." ♪

Dr. Donna's here.

Hello. Come on in.

Hey, welcome to the infested house.

Donna's husband,

who is a doctor, is coming over

to check us all out to see if the scabies

has gotten to the rest of us.

Basically, what they recommend is that anyone

who's in close contact

should be treated.

M.J.: I have to put this funky,

sticky, honey-like medication all over my body.

Did you want to check us all, like our backs?

I'm going to take a look, yes.

Open.

"The eggs hatch in three to four days

"and the emerging larvae

"leave the burrow and travel

to the skin's surface."

Ew.

This is so gross, though.

LANDON:So those pimples are actually them

coming out to be born.

SHAVONDA: If I got scabies, I would die.

Ugh! And you think... ooh! They crawl on you.

That's just gross.

I don't have it, thank God.

None of us... no one else got it.

Now that the doctor's here with all the medication

and he's assured us that

we don't have any present bites,

that it's probably not going to spread on us,

I feel fine.

Thank you so much.

Bye, Donna.

We really, really, really appreciate it.

Take care of yourself, sweetie.

LANDON: So the shampoo you use all over your body--

use them both all over your body--

except this one is for your head.

MEL: Here's allof them.

"Wash your hair with your regular shampoo...

Wash hair with regular shampoo without conditioner."

He said don'tdo that.

He said to start with dry hair.

"Wait at least one hour before using the, um,

Lindane shampoo to lesson the chance..."

Do it dry, man.

LANDON: Mel thinks she can talk knowledgeably about everything,

and she can't, she talks out of her a*s.

"Shake the medication well before using."

MEL: I think we're probably going to have to get more.

KARAMO: Hold on, hold on.

He's reading the directions.

MEL: I know, I've already read them and I talked

to the doctor about it and I know what he told me.

Here.

[growls]

[sighs]

Karamo was in the shower,

so I'm reading down here, I'm like, "Okay, here we go."

You know, like, "shampoo first..."

Mel's like, "No! No!"

And I'm,like...

And Karamo's

looking at me, he's, like...

And I'm, like...

She's, like, "The doctor told me no."

And I'm, like, "All right."

So I, like, skip that sentence and I go on the other one.

SHAVONDA: Page two.

"Wash thorough..." "No!"

SHAVONDA: I don't like being interrupted when I speak.

I can see her, uh, just waiting.

The wheels are turning.

The wheels are turning.

You're not listening to me.

I have never in my life

met someone like Mel.

Every single sentence starts in the middle of mine.

It was, like, yesterday when you guys were

sitting over there laughing

and she was giving me her spiel on everything.

[chuckling]: And I let her talk.

I was just sitting there like this.

She went on for, like,

minutes and I didn't say a word.

I mean just literally wasted minutes of my life.

We were, like, "He's not saying anything."

As soon as I was, like...

"All right, Mel, well, this is how I feel."

I probably got three sentences in to it

and it was just...

[blubbering noises]

How do you sit someone

down and say, "Your personality annoys me?"

Welcome to our office.

How'd yesterday go?

Good.

We're pretty much done with everything.

The PowerPoints

maybe need to be tweaked a little bit.

LAURA: Perfect.

Will you guys have your polos for tomorrow?

You want us to wear those?Yeah, for tomorrow.

LANDON: Tomorrow we are presenting

all of our bosses

what we've been working on,

and where we're going to go

from here with the playground.

Craig and Mimi and Tim, myself,

and then Rose from Northern Home,

Donna and Anthony will be there.

How many peopleis that?

Six or seven.

How many do we print?

I would print out ten to be safe.

Hello there, Mimi.

Hi, how you doing?

Am I allowed to give you a little hug?

I don't know, are you?

These days, I'm not so sure.

What's going on?

We're making some color copies for the presentation tomorrow.

Okay, I don't want to see them in advance.

You guys going to be on time?

Trust me, yes.

You'll be back to your ways

of getting everybody up and moving early?

Exactly. Okay.

Good, we're looking forward to it.

It's going to be a good day.

I mean, it's the culmination

of everything we've been doing for the past four weeks.

LANDON: I want to do an exceptional job.

I'm a little scared that I won't feel competent.

I'm always expecting we're going to fail.

M.J.:Tomorrow is our biggest day.

I think.

For a long time it is.

That's why I just don't feel like we're ready.

Maybe I just don't feel like I'm ready.

Today's the big day.

SHAVONDA: I'm going to be nervous in front of Mimi.

We're going to The Northern Home

today to do our final presentation,

and we're all pretty nervous.

SHAVONDA: Today's the day that we show

the Philadelphia Soul bigwigs

everything we've been working on these past weeks.

How are you?

How are you guys doing?Nice to see you, man.

Hello, how are you? Nice to see you.

Hello there, Mimi.

Where do you want us? Does it matter?

Is everyone here?

Where's Donna?

Hey, everybody, special guest.

Hi, guys.

M.J.: Jon Bon Jovi turns the corner

and everybody pretty much freaks out.

I mean, he's a rock star.

It's going to fluster you up a little bit.

BON JOVI: Are we ready?

Okay, we've been working now for about six weeks

for The Philadelphia Soul.

And we've been given this opportunity to develop

a playground that is customized

for the children and for Northern Home.

SARAH: We did a site visit with the kids

from Northern Home to get

an idea of the types of structures

that we like and the kids like.

MELANIE: We asked them questions,

we saw what they ran to first

and we got their input on what they really wanted

in their dream playground.

Hey, look, it's a twisty slide.

Go boys, go boys, go.

One, two, three!

I like that.

Hey, Landon.

I like that.

So when we left here, we had this catalog

and we were able to go back to the office,

and that's where we've really

put in the man hours

by using the field trips

that we've taken with the kids,

trying to compile a wish list.

And from this wish list, we were going to send it in

to Playworld Systems for our meeting with them.

Da-da-da-da.

This is it.

The playground will look exactly like this.

The playground is divided

into three main structures.

It's the two to five area, which is this,

for smaller children who want to play

but obviously can't fit on the larger structure.

The five to area, um, back view, front view,

and also the stand-alone components.

Shavonda is handing in the permit today and so

as soon as the permit goes through, Lipinsky Landscape

can start tearing it up.

Two weeks after that,

Playworld comes in a truck, drops down

the playground set in about , pieces,

and we start going to work

and putting it together.

And then after that is done, um, let the children play.

Jon Bon Jovi really didn't know

if we were going to take this job

that seriously.

I only hoped that you'd make us proud.

You did it tenfold.

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

I'm really, really proud

that you guys are here with us.

Thank you.

Thank you.

KARAMO: Looking at Bon Jovi's face,

Mimi, our boss's face, and everyone else

with Northern Home and Philadelphia Soul,

I realized that we're actually putting something together

that's going to, you know last a lifetime for these kids.

BON JOVI: I know you guys have had

a busy time preparing this and just to show our thanks,

there's a special surprise.

But you have to go back to the house for a : presentation.

This is for us?

You guys did absolutely fantastic today.

I'm so proud of you.

Because having Laura as a boss is...

ALL: Off the hook!

WILLIE: It's :.

[doorbell rings]

[screaming]

What the hell?

Unlock it.

I can't open the door!

Open the door!

It's broke.

Dude, our door is [bleep] broke.

Our door is broken. Hold on!

We can't get out!Hold on!

Hold on!

[mock sobbing]

Oh, my God!

Look, out, look out, look out.

Go, Landon, go, go, go.

Unscrew it, unscrew it, unscrew it.

Hold on, hold on.

This is Landon, Shavonda.

Oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God.

Come on, come on, come on, come on.

Whoo!

I don't know.

What the...?

[screaming]

Open it up!

That's awesome!

Open the travel bag. Open the travel bag.

Here we go, here we go. It's in here.

Citibank, where are we going?

Oh, my God!

Where we going?

Where we going? Where we going?

Hawaii, Hawaii...

Fiji! Fiji!

[all yelling]

Next onThe Real World:

I love Fiji!

SHAVONDA: Sarah has her eye on the prize,

and the prize is one of these European boys.

A girl's got needs,

That's all I have to say.

LANDON: Fiji is probably one

of the most romantic places on the face of the Earth.

Do you want to stay here tonight?

That's so disrespectful. How dare her!

Wow, were you talking about me?
