It’s a Holy week Summer House recap and if this gang ever needed Jesus, it’s tonight! We pick up where we left off last week with the big fight between Luke, Carl and Kyle. Luke leaves the house while Kyle and Carl drunkenly stumble around yelling about who’s tougher. We get a great shot of Lindsay tackling Kyle to the floor in order to stop him from fighting outside. Xena Warrior Princess only wishes! Carl breaks down over the events of the evening on the phone to his dad. He drank too much and is angry about losing his brother. His grief is still so raw, it’s hard to watch.
Don’t Use The Force Luke
The next day, Carl and Kyle discuss Luke. Kyle feels he owes Luke an apology for provoking the situation. Carl is disappointed in himself for drinking so much and losing his temper the way he did. Ownership and maturity look good on these guys! It made me happy to see it. Kyle and Carl call Luke. Luke agrees to come to the house to talk.

Juxtaposed with that Hannah, Paige and Ciara gossiping in bed. I don’t like this trio. I wish Ciara hadn’t aligned herself with Hannah and Paige. Amanda, Danielle and Lindsay lay out by the pool. Amanda wants to get to a point of forgiving and forgetting with Luke. Lindsay plays it smart by not voicing a strong opinion on it. She wants the “psychic said I slept with Luke” target off her back so she won’t stick up so vocally for Luke.
I Came, I Saw, I Made It Awkward.
I know it’s Covid and we’re in a pandemic but I’m BEGGING the producers to stay out of storylines. We don’t need a fake “Is Lindsay pregnant??” because we have social media. She’s not. Danielle is the type of friend we all want in real life pregnancy scares though. Luke comes to the house and asks Kyle to meet him at the end of the driveway. He wants to ensure zero gang ups or snoops listening in. They have a nice talk with both men taking accountability for their part in the fight. They agree to never let it get to that point again.

Luke comes back into the house. He talks privately to Carl, who is also contrite and apologetic. He wants a brother relationship with Luke. Carl genuinely wants Luke to be ok. You can see the love there and it’s very sweet. I love and adore Carl Radke this season. Never saw that coming. Luke awkwardly joins the gang at the dinner table. The group looks uncomfortable. Luke gives a long soliloquy about how he’s sorry for the anger he displayed the other night. He’s embarrassed and ashamed. It seemed very sincere. Even Paige kept her snark down to really listen to Luke. Amanda thanks Luke for being so vulnerable. She was touched as was the whole table. He apologizes directly to Ciara and Hannah. They seem to accept it. All’s well that ends well.
Wish Version Of Sixteen Candles
The following night they all go out to dinner! How exciting. They are able to eat dinner outside which is a nice change of scenery. Hannah announces her boyfriend Des is coming to the house. Thankfully not even that can bring the vibe down. Everyone has fun. Carl gives Amanda a second engagement anniversary re-proposal. They go home to find Stephen/Stravy on the back lawn spelling out “I Heart U” with candles and flowers. Lindsay is shocked. I’m shocked too but only because I forgot about him. Yes he’s been sending her flowers daily but I thought he would just fade away. Silly me.

Next week on Summer House recap: Stephen/Stravy is still around. Upon meeting Des, Kyle finally figures out that Hannah wanted him all along-then settled for his dad. Keeping it ultra classy, Hannah and Des seemingly have sex in Kyle’s bathroom. Blech.
Thank you for reading! I’ve been dealing with painful stomach stuff and my baby is turning 4 Saturday. It’s been an emo week lol. I apologize if this recap isn’t as sharp as usual but I had to come through for you! See you all in the comments. Cannot wait to hear what you think about Des darkening the doors of our Summer House! I’m also on Twitter so please give a follow PopCultureKelly. Thank you Tamara for the shout out on there! Happy Easter and Passover. Sending love and good wishes to you all!
I enjoy watching this show.. but I don’t enjoy watching these girls lay in bed with their phones covering their faces all day.. I’m like, “isn’t it US, watching you twats, the ones supposed to be laying in bed?! Wtf!
Oh how meta. Cool observation.
Lindsey better think long and hard about marrying him. I eye roll everytime Luke strums on his guitar and sings or when he chops wood shirtless in those long hot jeans and Timberland boots.
Lindsey is the iconic character I didn’t know I needed in my life—the ROTC tackle of Kyle honestly come thisclose to table flipping.
Amish Carl in underpants needs to be a bad poster hung on someone’s ceiling in punksy.
Handy Danielle was the real friend of the episode.
I’m living for this show. I could do without about half the cast but the other half is life.
I cannot wait for winter house. I really want Jax and perhaps Kristen from VPR. There will be plenty of ❄️❄️❄️, sandwhiches and Loverboy for everyone…I foresee alot of whores sweating in church!!!
I hate to say it but I think I am close to being done with this show because the few people I did like (Hannah, Paige, Lindsey) I can no longer stand and the people I didn’t like especially Carl and Danielle are now my favorites. What a change of events for me. But who am I kidding, I will keep watching and reading your recaps, which are great PCK!
Thank you for the recap!! Who knew that the boy’s emotional growth would be THE story of the summer?!? I am here for it. I think there is no one better than Carl and Kyle to call out Luke on his F-Boy behavior. I don’t think Hannah’s time line with Dez Let’s Luke off the hook at all. It was how he handled it. I’m glad she had a flirtation going onto help her move on from Luke. I was hysterical over Kyle’s comment about Dez being his dad. Hysterical! Danielle was a champ but I was cringing watching that fake pregnancy scare. Lindsey is nog a good actress. At all!
I love this show. First season, I thought it was a shit show and I never expected I’d end up loving it. I don’t blame Luke 100% for the miscommunication with Hannah. She refused to heed his words, and I get it. Thanks for the recap, PCK and a happy holiday weekend to you!
Lindsay looks gorgeous in her confessional when her hair is up. Not so much with the extensions. I hate the way Luke dresses. Beanies, jeans and boots during the summer in the Hamptons. Paige has no storyline and Hannah is too thirsty. I’m really digging sober Carl.
I love how real this show seems compared to other Bravo offerings. The arguments are dark and dangerous, yet they are spawned by common problems: Trash , chores, music levels, and how many sandwiches one has made or not made 😂
Non scripted drama is much more interesting.
I like them all. Paige and Hannah seem very lazy. That’s bothersome when other housemates are working so hard. Danielle is a boss. I liked her and Carl together. I want him with Danielle or Lindsay.
Totally off topic but did you guys know that the horse in never ending story actually died??I am so upset about this because as a child I remember the story but those fuckers totally killed that beautiful horse
Well I’ve done a complete 180 degree turn after watching this episode! I could not have felt sorrier for Luke and I really empathised with him. I agree he needed to take accountability for his behaviour towards Hannah and Ciara and he seemed genuinely sorry. Loving the dynamic between the boys and I absolutely love Carl this season. Unfortunately Hannah and Ciara seem to have developed this mean girls pact and, unless we’ve missed something, Ciara’s continued dismissive treatment of him seems pretty harsh. The guy broke down for Chrissake! Hannah is coming across as an immature idiot and Kyle’s comment about Des looking like his Dad had me hooting out loud! Even Lindsay didn’t bother me this episode although that FRIENDS style renactment of her finding out if she was pregnant or not seemed very staged! Danielle has really come into her own this season and comes across as level headed, hardworking and grounded. Totally BFF material!
I think what I’m really loving this season is how real everything is as usually we see staged snippets of their life in NYC followed by mayhem at the weekends. Now we’re getting to see how they really are day to day. I can’t get over how much time Paige and Hannah spend in bed whereas Danielle is up, bed made, room and herself looking immaculate ready to start the day! Did I say it already but I love her?!
I love Amanda and Kyle too – they seem really happy and I’m rooting for Loverboy to become a huge success so Amanda can go off and have lots of babies which is obviously what she wants to do.
This is by far my favourite reality series and roll on next week!
This show has producers involved too much. It just isn’t the same summer house. I can clearly see every producer manipulation of the cast and it is ruining the show for me. Ugh.
Hannah in the past was wonderful. Hannah now is awful. Hannah has an ego for no reason. Since she has Bravo Chat she thinks that she is queen bee and she is not. She is horrible on Bravo Chat and she is horrible on Summer House. The meaness from her and Ciara is so out of line. I want to shake them back to reality.
I stopped watching chat room when Kate left. I’ve never been able to stand two of the three remaining hosts and the one that mildly amused me has lost me after her performance this season.
I missed Kate on Below Deck but Captain Lee kept me hanging on. I don’t think chatroom is redeemable
I’m loving this series, it’s a refreshing change after the housewives. I’m pleased most people are showing growth and moving on.
Another good one Kelly! I would not be watching this show if I hadn’t kept reading the recaps and comments. I died over the Steve Jobs comment to Stassi. But then stopped because they were too self-absorbed and immature.
I am to see a couple of people — DebInSF and Janey — agree with me about Luke. He stuck with Hannah all last season, despite no fucking. A certain mindset of YOUNG GIRLS give blow jobs so they can stay virgins longer. But at HANNAH’s age? It is NOT cute. So her whole thing with Luke was HER lying for storyline. Never did get the Hannah Club here. Plus, the Chat Room fame has really gone to her head. And the Des timeline doesn’t track. She fucks him the night one after putting Luke off all last summer.
Ciara … she wouldn’t be in this show, despite her beauty and spectacular body, if not for Luke. You don’t go away with a guy, who you are not in a serious relationship with, to be locked up in quarantine with a bunch of strangers, unless you are MADLY INFATUATED, or seeking fame.
I say both women used Luke, not the other way around.
I completely agree with you about Hannah and Ciara, and Luke definitely resurrected himself in this last episode with his raw transparency- major kudos, and I look forward to seeing what happens moving forward. That was a big deal. The thing is, unless I’m remembering all of last season incorrectly, I thought that Hannah was dying to fuck Luke, and Luke kept putting off the ultimate “consummation” (except for the oral sex part).
Supposedly, he never wanted to take it all the way because he was “confused”, and not over his previous girlfriend, but, at least last season, the whole vibe was that he was passive-aggressively stringing her along. I could be remembering that all wrong, but I think that’s why a lot of us disliked him until last episode- the whole “stringing women along, passive-aggressive” thing he had been doing. But, this past episode seemed to be a breakthrough- excited to see if Luke continues to grow!
Luke Wyler sleep with her not the other way around
Wouldn’t not Wyler
PCK – Can we talk about Ciara offering Carl a hand job when he was so upset next week? I keep forgetting to ask. Was it a joke? It sounded sincere. I’m 99.99% sure I heard that, but I am thinking she is not the confident person she projects. WTF?
I rewatched the beginning of the episode It was Danielle not Ciara that actually offered Carl a hand job after he climbed into bed after the argument with Luke. and then Kyle — who professes such support for women — slams Luke as a “vagina mouth”. So immature.
correction: “vagina breath”
Kyle does seem extremely immature, especially when he’s drinking. Amanda seems like she’s constantly having to coddle his tantrums and outbursts- that would not be for me, not in a million years.
That big fight seemed over in an instant. I’ll have to rewatch it. Maybe. Probably not. The slow motion of Lindsay subduing Kyle was the best part of the episode. Carl and Kyle, though they are more likable this season, were hypocrites for calling Luke out for his behavior toward women. And Luke was right about telling Carl to tell it to his face instead of behind his back. Carl’s anger was obviously a displacement of his anger toward his brother. During the apology segment, it was nice of Carl to let Luke know he’s his friend or wants to be there as a brother for him. Not believable though, it’s just Carl trying to work out his emotions with his brother’s death. We know he doesn’t really care about Luke that way. Luke’s sharing his family dynamics was important. Important for his well-being and now his roommates can better understand him. Luke, there’s a lot of us out there who don’t want to be like our parents, you’re not a freak. I didn’t realize that the pregnancy scare was staged. Just seemed like a reckless thing not unexpected from Lindsay. Someone needs to send Carl to therapy. He has stated multiple times about his anxiety. He doesn’t seem to know how to deal with it other than drinking. I can’t remember when I got engaged. But I do remember that I wouldn’t expect to celebrate its anniversary. If you’re celebrating this occasion Amanda, it’s time to get married. If you’re changing venues three times Kyle, do you really want to get married? Hannah is boring, Paige is boring with flashes of humor, Ciara was forgettable. Danielle, good to see someone taking their job seriously. I’m having fun being judgmental can you tell.
I love Summer House!!! I enjoy the drama. Covid has stopped a lot and I want this show to continue. I enjoy all the people on. Please please continue showing and filming this entertaining show.
My Favorite Bravo Show !!!
Paige used to be my favorite. I’m not sure if it’s her boyfriend, but now she shows nothing about herself. She plays all sides, stirs the pot in everyone else’s drama. I will admit that I’m a little jello……I wish I could lay in bed all day & get paid for it.
