Flipping Out: Jeff Flips Out At Sarah

Even though Jeff feels some sort of obligation to employ Sarah Berkman due to her being the sister of his brother's wife, I really don't see why this is a good enough reason to keep her around. Or on my TV screen.

On his Bravo blog this week Jeff Lewis is all apologetic over lashing out at Sarah on this week's episode.

He did go a bit too far with the insults. Telling Sarah she has a pea-brain, or whatever it was, exactly, that Jeff said, may have been a bit harsh. But, it seems fairly accurate.

I think I would have lost my temper at Sarah at that point in time too. Jeff clearly told her to call a contractor and ask why he was not on the job. If the contractor did not have a good excuse, Jeff told Sarah to tell the contractor they'd find someone else to do the job.

So? What does Sarah do? She gets the contractor on the phone, does not ask why he was not on the job, and simply tells him they don't need him anymore. Or something like that.

If I were Jeff, at that point in time, I don't think I would have yelled at Sarah. I think I would have fired her.

And why does Jeff Lewis not have a no gum smacking policy? Sarah's constant gum chewing is very annoying.

Jeff's constant nagging at Sarah about her need to get married to her live-in Steven boyfriend was annoying. And then magically Steven proposed, which has Sarah showing up at work with a ring on her finger. I doubt  this Steven guy proposed. Sarah likely bought herself an engagement ring just to shut Jeff up.

And what is up with Jenni's frequent emergency restroom breaks requiring a makeshift outhouse? This week Jenni's makeshift outhouse used a sheet of sheetrock for a wall. And what's up with Jeff always torturing Jenni when she is in her makeshift outhouse? This week it was Jeff throwing rocks at the sheetrock.With Jenni throwing the rocks back at Jeff.

The previews for next week seem to promise some good drama, with Jenni losing Jeff's scheduled, which, apparently, is a firing offense. And Trace getting slapped by a client should be interesting.

Okay, that is hilarious, and damn, I didn't think of it, but it probably is true! Makes more sense than her just popping up out of nowhere with this ring, like "Poof!". (And from the guy hasn't thought to propose to her in 10 years, right?) um...Sure!

Also, watching her mouth constantly jawing that damn gum is annoying. It actually makes her seem even more like an idiot.
I'm shocked that it doesn't bother Jeff in the least!

Java Babe, we are not alone in finding the Sarah gum smacking and Jeff tolerating it to be an annoying mystery.

I sort of doubt the existence of an actual Sarah boyfriend. It strains my ability to sustain disbelief to belief there is a guy out there who has lived with her for 10 years. Likely he is an imaginary boy friend no one has ever met. And she's gonna have an imaginary wedding to which no one will be invited. Due to eloping.
