"The Review" is an episode from Season 1 of the dramedy television series Entourage.
[edit] Plot
Vince gets the first review in for Head On, and it trashes his performance. At Ari's office, the guys run into Justine Chapin, a "celibate" pop star, and Emily, Ari's new assistant. Ari then lambasts Eric for passing on Matterhorn before Head On was released, and for telling Vince about the bad review. Then for the first time in the series, Ari and Eric are reconciled courtesy of a line that will become Ari's catchphrase: "Let's hug it out, bitch." [1]
After leaving Ari's, the guys go car shopping, and Vince decides to lease a Rolls-Royce Phantom. After leaving the dealer, they smoke a joint in the car and immediately hook up with some attractive women and take them back to the house. At the house, while swimming with the girls, Vince gets a call from his business manager Marvin who wants a meeting. Vince sends Eric. At the meeting, Marvin upbraids E for the lease on the car and all the other spending the entourage have been engaged in.
After the meeting, E meets the guys at a café where they run into Jessica Alba, Vince's co-star from Head On. She invites the guys to her party that night for her friend Justine Chapin. Later that night, the guys grab some wine and head to Alba's house.
At Alba's party, she introduces Vince to Justine, and Ari tries to sweet talk Jessica into hiring him. Drama runs into David Faustino, who is also skipping their class, deciding that the Vagina Monologues would make them look gay. Ari lambasts E for telling Marvin that Ari said it was OK for Vince to lease the Rolls, and Justine admits to Vince that her celibate image might not be entirely true. This is too much for Vince, who goes over to Eric and admits his first time was with E's cousin Cheryl.
Towards the end of the party, Drama informs the guys that Turtle found a girl, and is "christening" the Rolls. Vince decides to forget the Rolls and tells Eric to return it.
Friday comes, and Ari calls E to let him know that the review is in from the New York Times, and that they call him the next Johnny Depp.
