Metroplex Girls Episode: Scorching Hot Water Attack

Friday night the girls had movie night at Jersey's place. They actually never got around to watching the movie but instead started chit-chatting with each other for a couple of hours. They had a discussion about taking a short trip to Arkansas, to help Paris' grandmother's black history month sermon. They couldn't make up their minds about going.




It started to get late so London and Paris called it a night. The two girls headed over to London's house and soon fell asleep. That morning, London woke up, and asked Paris if she could help her and her mother unhook the old washer, soon to be replaced with a brand new one. London and Paris pulled the washer out, to unscrew the bolts around the hose that is attached to the washer and connected to the hot and cold faucets. The bolts wouldn't budge; it was a tight squeeze behind the washer, and not much room for movement. So London's mother tells Paris to cut the hose off, so they could move the washer out of the way and free up some elbow space. London handed Paris the scissors, and Paris started cutting away.

The scissors didn't start working at first, so London went back into the garage to look for a box cutter. Paris took the scissors, and started to slice the hose, but it didn't look like it was working. She finally decided to cut the hose like you would cut a piece of paper, and she noticed that solution was working, she started cutting more, and the hose opened up even more only because by then water started gushing everywhere. Paris was cutting a hole into the hose that was connected to the hot water faucet. The water was warm at first, but it was spraying forcefully all over her and the water started to get scorching hot.Paris was trapped behind the washer, as all this water was soaking her up, so Paris tried to leap over the washer, but London screamed to her telling her to shut the water off. Paris couldn't take it anymore so she hopped across the washer like she was a member of the Olympic hurtle team, as she rose to jump over the washer, the scorching hot water sprayed her right butt cheek, and burned her.

By this time, so much water was flying out, and the laundry room became flooded. London runs in and tries to turn the water off, but couldn't because the water was so hot it burned her hand. London's mother came to the rescue and placed her jacket over the faucet handle to avoid burning her hand, and turned the water off. Just another day in the METROPLEX………………

Metroplex Girls Episode: Trip to Arkansas

London, Paris, and Jersey decided to go to Arkansas around 4 pm that day. It was optional, but they all wanted to go and get away from the Metroplex for a day or so. As they get closer, Jersey spots a Dairy Queen, so London drives up, and starts to order, after the order was completed the cashier asked London in a real Country Hill Billy accent, "That Be All"? Of course the girls, couldn't help themselves so they started talking in the same country accent to each other. Paris started it, and had London and Jersey crying laughing because she talked with that country accent better than the cashier!
Three and a half hours later they get closer to Paris's grandparents property. London asked Paris if there were any small town horror stories. She named off a couple, and had London and Jersey scared shitless! The Girls arrive at thier destination. The land surrounding the house was endless, and the trees were forever tall. They get introduced to her grandparents, who are wonderful, and loving people by the way, and eventually they hop in Paris' grandfather's F250 Ford Truck which has a lift kit, and sits about 5 feet off the ground. They head out to the neighborhood Wal-Mart, to pick up some groceries and necessities, while blasting London's CD, because Paris' grandfather has a sound system in the truck. Go figure!!!
While in Wal-Mart the girls act a fool, they figured, why not, nobody will ever see them again! One lady came up to the girls, and said "Ya'll aren't from around here are you? LOL! Pretty funny. They pick up a few movies, go back to the house, and eat some of grandma's best cookin. The food was amazing. The girls watch a movie, then head to bed. That morning the girls went to church, and later help Paris' grandmother with the cooking for her black history month sermon at the church she preaches at. Afterwards the girls head back to the house.
London found Paris' grandfathers rifle and asked Paris if she could shoot it. So the girls go outside, London cocks the rifle, and Paris and Jersey run far away from her. The first time she fires the rifle, it kicked so hard, it jerked London back quit a bit. The next time she was prepared for it, and actually hit her target. Afterwards, London put the rifle away, and the girls took a hike in the woods. They discussed the topic of recreating the "Blair Witch Project", Metroplex Girls, Style, by going into the haunted house Paris mentioned in the car ride. Soon afterwards, the girls left Arkansas, and headed back towards home, their Metroplex...........
