BROMANCE PHOTOCAP: Pitching Tents for Brody Jenner

When it comes to finding a best friend, what better way to test a prospect's mettle than by stripping him down to shorts and letting him grapple with a big, muscular, sweaty man? That was one of this week's challenges on Bromance, which saw Brody Jenner continue his search for his next servile sidekick. When not engaging in the pleasures of the flesh with biker dude Mario, the guys were off in the wilderness on a small camping trip, which meant they got to go fishing, light a campfire, and run away from baby alligators (don't ask). But mostly what the dudes did was listen to Brody backdoor brag once again, this time with stories of Elvis and conception at the Playboy Mansion.

Meanwhile, Alex and Luke continued to prove themselves as frontrunners for Brody's affection. Both actually seem like decent kids, and surely everyone watching had to have been impressed when Luke pinned the aforementioned sweaty biker dude. It was such a surprising turn of events that it was no wonder that he won a very special dinner with Brody himself. And thank God he did! Otherwise, we never would have heard about Brody's darkest moment: the day he learned that his original reality show The Princes of Malibu had been cancelled after ONE EPISODE. Oh, the horrors! You really learn who your true friends are once you've experienced your first reality TV bomb...

As amusing as this moving glimpse into Brody's world was, it couldn't compare to the touchy-feely trust circle which ensued the next day. Think Starting Over, but douchier. Pretty much all the guys cried, which is fine, but what really made the segment mockable was the silly life coach who steered the discussion. Imagine every silly pop-psych cliché you can think of and then multiply it by ten. That's what it was like. Needless to say, it was an emotional journey indeed...
