It feels like just yesterday we were watching the Season 2 premiere
It feels like just yesterday we were watching the Season 2 premiere House of villains Because it was. E! We were blessed with a two-night premiere, so we didn’t have to wait long to see the effects of Kandi’s reading of Safaree on the floor.
In the Season 2 premiere of The House of Villains, Joel welcomed ten of reality TV’s biggest and baddest characters into his new and improved evil lair. After the first Battle Royale challenge, New York won safety and Safaree became the first supervillain of the season. His first job he left? Kandi, Victoria, and Larson are nominated for elimination.
What happened in House of Villains Season 2 Episode 2?
This week, the three endangered players took to Hollywood Boulevard to fight for safety in the competition, and in the end, one of the villains was booted from the competition — literally. There was also anticipation for next week, which proved that the competition shows no signs of slowing down. Buckle up! Here’s everything that happened during House of Villains Season 2, Episode 2: “Hollywood’s Walk of Shame.”
Wes forms a cult
After Safaree rolled out his hit list nominations, completely following the plan Wes laid out, the rest of the house felt nervous. Kandi pulled Safaree over his questionable decision-making skills, but the Love & Hip Hop star wasted no time turning it back on Wes. After all, he must have concocted this plan while they were on a date with their brother in Jax’s Studio City.
To calm Candy down, Wes pulled her aside and revealed the true plan to Victoria. That helped make things easier with Candy, but the comment about Safari looking like a prolapsed anus couldn’t be taken back. She said what she said.
Meanwhile, Wes admitted in a confessional interview that he was in the process of forming a cult in competition. Specifically, he said he wanted to recruit desperate people to work for him, and he realized that Victoria was actually the most desperate of them all. She said so herself!
With that in mind, Wes pulled Victoria to the side and told her that if she dedicated her “unending loyalty” to the Wes/Safaree/Jessie crew, they would keep her safe. Meanwhile, Kandi was elsewhere in the house under the impression that the sibling alliance would target Victoria. messy!
Victoria agreed to join Wes’s cult, but admitted in her confessional that it was less about trusting them and more about just trying to stay in the competition. So, if you’ve been keeping track, Wes officially has three people following his cult. By the end of the episode, he tries to recruit someone else.
A path to salvation
Janice Dickinson randomly appeared to present the redemption challenge. She knows a thing or two about a reality TV villain. Not only was she a monster on America’s Next Top Model, but she was also competing with Omarosa on The Surreal Life all those years ago.
Despite her many contributions to the genre, most actors did not recognize her. Theresa said, “Janice Dixon?”
The first redemption challenge was called the “No Shame Walk in Hollywood,” and Janice explained that each person would have to go out on Hollywood Boulevard to collect signatures from all the unsuspecting people. Whoever collects the largest number will be safe from elimination.
Everyone had their own strategy for this challenge. Kandi said she just wanted to “pull it out.” She ran to the bathroom, put on a wig, and put on an elegant little dress.
Victoria said her strategy was to just smile, hoping her princely ways would entice people to leave a signature.
Meanwhile, Larissa had a completely different strategy than the other villains. She said she would lie her way through the challenge. She decided to tell people that she was collecting signatures for a social cause. Any social reason? will be determined.
Kandi Muse meet and greet
As soon as the villains landed on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, they immediately had to start collecting signatures from all the poor, unsuspecting people. As if Hollywood Boulevard wasn’t chaotic enough, here come three reality TV villains yelling at people trying to get them to sign their “petitions.”
It became immediately clear that Larissa was not going to win this. Her strategy didn’t work. With the exception of a couple of 90 Day Fiancé fans, passersby seemed terrified to talk to her. The fact that she lied about collecting signatures for breast cancer didn’t help either.
Victoria had a little more success. She decided to stand in just one place, and realized that people would naturally gravitate towards her. Part of it was the smile, but mainly it had to do with the camera crew.
Ultimately, Candy’s strategy turned out to be the most effective. Obviously everyone will come to a drag queen. And then, once they got close to her, most people were like, “Oh my God! Candy Muse?” It’s turned into a Kandy Muse Meet-and-Greet experience. People were quoting her and asking for selfies. She won this redemption challenge easily thanks to her drawing power, and is safe from elimination this week.
Teresa cooks a little something for the bad guys
While Candy, Victoria, and Larissa were running and barking down Hollywood Boulevard, some of the bad guys went home to prepare a strategy. Well, some of them were. Most of them were taking a nap, but Weiss used the free time to try to expand his sect. His next target was Camilla.
Meanwhile, Teresa said her strategy was to cook food for the rest of the villains. After all, she’s a world-famous cookbook author! So, she has to work on preparing a giant Italian meal for the bad guys.
In theory, this was supposed to be their last meal together before the eliminations. Although it was a nice idea, the meal did not go down well with the villains. Trey looked at the villains and asked, “Well, how so?”
They hit her on the back in awkward silence. Eventually, Mr Bex admitted the meal was a bit too salty for his taste, but the brutally honest reviews came in the confessional. Throughout the panel, the villains don’t like Teresa’s cooking. Maybe it didn’t have all the “ingredients”? Either way, it’s best to find a new strategy. Cooking it won’t cut it.
Who went home first in House of Villains season 2?
Before the elimination, we had our first real feud between the villains. Larissa and Victoria went for it! The Bachelorette alum made a huge mistake by insulting the Las Vegas Raiders, and Larissa flipped out. Apparently, this is the line you can’t cross.
The tension between the imperiled villains has spilled over into the stronghold. When they were given the opportunity to make their final pleas to stay in the game, Larissa used it as an opportunity to drag Victoria back. Was that enough to convince the other villains to keep her in the house? Absolutely not.
Joel counted the votes from the villains. By a vote of 5 to 2, Larissa became the first villain to be eliminated from the competition. With the push of a button, her chair was thrown through the walls of the stronghold, never to be seen again.
But wait, there’s a twist! After Larissa was kicked out of the competition, the fortress wall tipped over again, teasing that someone was still in the chair. Either they forgot to unbuckle Larissa’s belt, or they have another villain entering the competition. We’ll find out next week, when it looks like Tiffany has been activated against Richard!
House of Villains airs new episodes on E!, Thursday nights at 10/9c.
