The groundbreaking reality TV show The Real World is back and in St. Thomas.

Robb and Marie met to head to the house together. They seemed to hit it off right away. They have the same “HaKuma Matada” tattoo, but Marie’s is on her ass and Robb’s is on his leg.  I found that pretty strange, yet cool. Robb and Marie decided to stop and get some liquor once they landed. Marie showed up drunk and with more booze in her suitcase, she should be the party starter this season.

Latoya met one of her roommate Trey to head to the house together. The location for the show was a surprise as the couple received an envelope telling them they were going to the Virgin Islands. Trey did not know where the Virgin Islands were on a map. The two talked about barracudas in the water.

The two Brandon’s met to head to the house together. The African American Brandon goes by the name Swift. They then met up with Laura, who white Brandon was instantly attracted too. The three got on a boat to go to their home for the next few months. The house was on an island and it looked like paradise. There was an awesome pool table with a map of the islands on it. The pool/hot tub looked amazing. Brandon revealed he was a recovering drug addict, 6 months clean. Laura was a bit put off by the news.

Everyone came together for the first time with a lot of LaToya screaming. Swift and Robb decided to room together because they are more organized and Trey and Brandon will be in the other guys’ room. The drinks were flowing right away. Everyone decided to go in the pool. Robb was attracted to Marie. The muscles on the other guys were making Brandon feel weird. Brandon was very into Laura, but she seemed to have a crush on Trey. Marie continued to bust Robb’s balls, but he began to get agitated by her sense of humor. We found out all the girls were single.

On the first night Brandon revealed to Laura that he felt like the outsider in the house. Laura assured Brandon that he could open up to her. Laura broke up with her boyfriend right before she left, we also found out she was adopted. Swift revealed his rating system and his cockiness came out. LaToya gave her simpler guy rating system. Laura made a height exception for Trey. Brandon was first to get naked and jump into the hot tub, but the housemates were a little weirded out by it and it caused him to be a bit isolated.

All the housemates were hanging out on the big tree in the back yard. Swift brought up someone leaving poop in his toilet. Marie was fingered for the offense. Trey continued to flirt with Laura. Laura showed Trey her adoption papers and we found out Laura had a sister she never met. LaToya and Swift had a private conversation. Robb and Marie also paired off, which left Brandon alone with just his insecurities and his racing mind. Laura later admitted to being the poop bandit.

Robb and Brandon started talking about the girls and Brandon began to talk shit about Trey. Brandon knew he was wrapped up in Laura and Robb tried to talk sense into him. Brandon came off very creepy and then he just stormed off. Trey was upset and talked to Laura about the two guys talking about him. Brandon pulled Trey aside to talk to him about Laura. Brandon seemed to come to reality, but Trey seemed to reconfirm he was Mr. America. Trey told Brandon he could talk to him anytime and they were ok? Marie and Robb bonded because they were the tall goons of the Virgin Islands and the drunkies on the show.

Marie passed out first, so Trey, Swift, and Laura decided to prank her by writing on her leg. They also put about 20 jars of peanut butter in her bed. Later, Trey found a book on the table outside. It was Brandon’s personal journal and it had a lot of weird stuff about death. Trey was very concerned about the suicidal/homicidal content.
