Candid camera — We're watching Jenny on Mark's monitor, while Mark snoozes with some unfortunate hottie he's brought home. On the screen, Jenny is pretending to be a little girl who wants a big cock. What? I type what I hear.

At first I freak out, thinking she's totally lost it and Charlotte was right about the cutting and who knows what else, but half a second later I realize that Jenny's just trying to trap Mark. And he wakes up when he hears the word "cock" (like my cat when she hears the word "treat" or a Betty scream) and starts to snuggle up to the woman who's in the bed next to him. But then he realizes that the smutty stuff is coming from his computer, so he jumps up to shut it off.

Next thing we know, Mark is knocking on the door of Jenny's very girly room. What a lovely bunch of styrofoam you have hanging from your ceiling, Jenny. And is that a picture of a carnival big top? I think within two minutes of being in your room, I'd be wishing the walls were padded.

Jenny tells Mark to come in, so he does, to find Jenny's naked torso with the words IS THIS WHAT U WANT scrawled on it. Gah. She's got black marker in her belly button and it's cracking me up. Try to excavate that navel lint, oh evanescent one!

Mark sees that Jenny has his camera, and his tape, and his number in general. She tells him he's crossed every line of trust, and he starts 'splaining as fast as he can. But Jenny's not listening: I suppose Jenny is trying to be all imposing and serious, with her hands on her hips and her stern face, but there are girly dolls and animals in the background and I still can't figure out whether that's peach or pink on the walls. My TV has been tainted and tinted by Jenny's words.

She gives Mark an assignment:

Jenny: "Do you have any sisters?"
Mark: "Yes, I have two younger sisters."
Jenny: "Okay. I want you to ask them a question. And the most important thing is that you really listen to their answer. I want you to ask your sisters about the very first time that they were intruded upon by some man or a boy."
Mark: "What makes you think that my sisters have been intruded upon?"
Jenny: "Because there isn't a single girl or woman in this world that hasn't been intruded upon, and sometimes it's relatively benign, and sometimes it's so fucking painful. But you have no idea what this feels like."

And Mark doesn't argue, maybe partly because he knows he doesn't know what it feels like, and probably also because he knows there's no point in arguing with a woman who's on this particular trip. I don't really disagree with what Jenny is saying; I just wish she didn't have to say it in such a Jenny way. And she's going to milk this for all it's worth: she tells him he can't tell Shane and Carmen about it, and it's not up to him to take down the cameras, and this is generally her show now. "I'm going to decide when you can take those rapey cameras down."

Rapey? You have that crazy vocabulary and you chose to make up a word? I can't believe you didn't go with "phallic" or "encroaching" or "foisted."

The Planet — The lunch line is long, so Kit is walking along and taking orders. Some random guy orders an organic salad and a cafe Americano. Who is that random guy? Why did we have to look at him for so long? Is he Cha Cha Chaiken's nephew or something?

Kit goes to take the next person's order, but Benjamin interrupts with a giant bouquet, asking if "the lady" will join him for lunch or dinner. The woman in line, who was trying to order, is smiling and watching and probably thinking it's sweet. If I were her, I'd be saying "listen, dude, the line is back there, and I have about 20 minutes to get my damn organic salad." But Benjamin keeps pushing, and talking about breakfast in bed while the woman in line is thinking about lunch in cafe.

Does Kit's shirt say KCRW? or Keane? or kavnu? Oh, let's face it, I'm really just looking at what's under her shirt. Actually, it's kind of a cool shirt. I'd buy it before I'd buy those scary pink L Word shirts from sho.com.
