Shahs of Sunset Finale: It’s the Men’s Turn to Behave Badly

On tonight’s Shahs of Sunset finale, the guys get a bit harsh. First, Mike and GG go to a workout class of some sort. First of all, I’m irritated by the instructor. I’ve got a wrist full of gold bangles that only come off at airport security and sometimes not even then. So why this guy thinks she can’t work out with her jewelry on is beyond my comprehension. But the point of the scene is to bring the somewhat manufactured storyline between Mike and GG to a resolution. I’m not sure how much of this game of pigtail pulling is made for Bravo but it seems pretty unlikely that in all the time these two have been playing it that this is the first time they have addressed their attraction head on. Anyway, Mike gives GG the “you’ll be great for some other guy” lecture and GG takes it all in stride and they hug it out. If GG was really taking the conversation seriously she most likely would have punched him in the face.  Which is why I doubt either of them viewed the conversation as anything more than “a scene.”

Then there is Reza, who decides that helping MJ come to terms with her bad relationship with her mother is best handled by telling MJ that her mother doesn’t love her.  Really Reza? How is saying that going to help anything. /sigh In tonight’s finale, we have the second attempt by a cast member of repairing broken parental relationships. I don’t think MJ’s goes quite as well with her mother as Reza’s did with his father. I hope Reza shows up to pick up the pieces, but with that kind of “support” going into the mother-daughter sit down, I’m not so confident.

Finally, there is Sammy. Despite Sammy’s lovely birthday gifts, I don’t see him as being a great friend to MJ. I saw part of the Vegas episode today where MJ was clearly well beyond drunk and headed to alcohol poisoning land and Sammy was literally pouring tequila from the bottle straight down her throat. Tonight we see MJ show up for a blind date so drunk that Bravo has to use subtitles because she is slurring her words BEFORE the date starts. Sammy shows up with her “blind date” and it’s some ex-boyfriend of MJ’s that clearly ended on bad terms. Who does that? When MJ points out the obvious, Sammy’s response is, “let’s go have some drinks.” Which they do, and the asshole ex-boyfriend mauls an extremely drunk MJ sending her out stumbling into traffic. Sammy apparently doesn’t notice.

Asa is supposed to sing tonight so I assume that is how the crew is all pulled back together in happily ever after land. I’m guessing this was the scene that was re-shot not too long ago. It would seem like it might take some time between all these events before everyone could put on a one big happy family face again. I love that Ass, Mike and Reza are back on WWHL tonight. It will be interesting to see what they have to say about the finale. Come back here after the show and tell me what you think of the finale. Here’s to hoping that the guys get some more positive editing than the promo suggests and we go out on a happy note.
