Episodes

Don't Be Stupid

First aired April 26, 2009 (2M viewers)[4]

After leaving Mexico with a broken heart, Daisy returns to find a man that is compatible with her. This time she brings Riki Rachtman to help her pluck out the fakes from the real. Although there are 20 men in the show, one of them is very familiar; 12 Pack, who has appeared on I Love New York and I Love Money. The men meet Daisy after she performs a song on stage for them. She says she is building a career for herself as a "singer, model, and all around bad ass." After the show, the men become situated and later, Daisy gives them nicknames to show off their personalities. The men are then led to the "mixer". As all the guys vie for her attention during the mixer, Flipper, who wants to grab the attention of Daisy, decides to jump off the stage bars and into the pool. Daisy confronts Tool Box for saying "Where the bitches at?" and warns him that she will not tolerate that kind of behavior. Weasel, London, and Torch become too intoxicated to form a connection with Daisy. Dropout fails to impress Daisy and she thinks that he is trying too hard to act cool. '84, '85, and '86 tell Daisy that they are only interested in having a good time and dating her together. After the party, Daisy gathers the men together, telling them that she knows who is there for her. She sends the triplets ('84, '85, and '86) packing before the elimination ceremony saying that she thought they were awesome, but that she is serious about finding love and will not share men or be shared by men. Riki invites them to take home with them all the food they can carry. Although the rest of the men think they are safe, Daisy tells them that two more people still have to go. After London and Weasel fall asleep, the guys decide to sabotage Weasel by drawing on his face. They are then gathered in the elimination room as Daisy gives chains one by one to the guys and asks them if they "will stay and be her rockstar." After many chains are passed out, it is soon down to Dropout, London, Torch, and Weasel. She decides to give Weasel and London another chance, and eliminates Torch and Dropout.

Here's Blood in Your Eye

First aired May 3, 2009

The guys wake up that morning and Riki tells them they are going to have their first challenge, a show and tell where the guys will try to show things that express themselves. Whoever "Miss Daisy" feels does the best job will receive gold stars, while whoever does the worst will receive a detention. Weasel goes first and impresses Daisy with a gift, a bracelet, and personal pictures of himself riding motorcycles and when he broke his back. Fox goes next and Daisy is disturbed by the erotic gift he gives her. Next is Professor, who teaches the class a lesson plan of love between Daisy and himself. London does a poor job with the song he wrote, which is only two lines long, one line of which he stole from Daisy's MySpace page. Flex gives Daisy a male blowup doll which represents himself, saying he wanted to be funny, but Daisy doesn't seem to like it. 12 Pack gives Daisy a bouquet of dead roses which he says symbolizes his past, and then throws them in the trash. Big Rig shows a picture of his son to Daisy. Cage shows Daisy the professional cage-fighting belt that he won. Brooklyn reads Daisy a poem, Cable Guy plays the saxophone for Daisy, and Sinister and Tool Box do dances for Daisy. 6 Gauge mixes a drink for Daisy, saying he's a bartender, and Daisy enjoys the drink and the flirting. Chi Chi goes next and tells an emotional story about how he was negative all his life until his father died in his arms, which forced him to realize how precious life is and to have a more positive outlook on life. Chi Chi says that he is ready to find love with Daisy. Daisy and the other guys are very impressed with Chi Chi's story, saying that they feel he is very real. Flipper is last, and he recites a rap song which "disses" all the other contestants and then ends with another back flip. Daisy says that the men getting gold stars and a group date will be Chi Chi, 6 Gauge, and Weasel and the men getting detention and a punishment will be London, Flex, and Fox. The guys that received detention then have to give three old women lap dances as punishment and the one who does the best job will join Daisy on their date tomorrow. London is chosen as the best lap dancer and gets to join the date. Later that night as the men begin to drink alcohol together, the subject of Flipper's rap is brought up and Flipper becomes infuriated. He targets Cable Guy and repeatedly screams "Hit me!" in his face, then hits himself in the head with a glass causing blood to drip down his face. He pushes Cable Guy and Cage is forced to hold Cable Guy back. Flipper then moons the guys and walks away to wipe the blood off his face and talk to Daisy in her room. She notices that something is wrong with Flipper and tries to console him, but he is still angry and yells at her and flips her off. Daisy tells him to leave and slams the door on him. Flipper leaves the house saying that he will not deal with the other guys, Daisy, or Daisy of Love. However, he leaves his shoes behind and Big Rig and Flex pee in the shoes. Later that night, Brooklyn calls his ex-girlfriend and she becomes upset that he is on the show. She calls back all night long, telling all the men that answer that Brooklyn has a girlfriend. The next day, Daisy, Chi Chi, 6 Gauge, Weasel, and London go to the beach for their date to surf and eat lunch. Daisy forms a stronger connection with Chi Chi, 6 Gauge, and London, but feels as though Weasel doesn't have any legitimate goals in life anymore. After the date, 6 Gauge tells Daisy that Brooklyn's girlfriend was calling all night. Daisy talks to Brooklyn about it and he says that they are still friends and that is why she cares about him, and Daisy says that she understands. Daisy then talks to Professor, but is bored by his conversation. At elimination, Daisy gives the first chain to Chi Chi, followed by London, Flex, Fox, 6 Gauge, 12 Pack, Cable Guy, Cage, Sinister, Big Rig, and Tool Box. The bottom three are Professor, Weasel, and Brooklyn. She calls Weasel down, but eliminates him. She then calls down both Professor and Brooklyn. She eliminates Professor and gives Brooklyn the final chain but warns Brooklyn that if he really does have a girlfriend he will be eliminated.

True Bromance

First aired May 10, 2009

The guys wake up the next morning and as they ready themselves, 12 Pack reads them a letter from "Daisy's Diary" which tells them about their next challenge. The guys are upset about the events concerning Brooklyn and are all very angry that he received a chain. Brooklyn is aware of this and states he will "keep his distance from the other guys". When the guys reach the area of their next challenge, they are surprised to find it takes place in a desert. Ricki tells the guys that today's challenge is all about protecting Daisy. They learn that they must protect a symbolic Daisy mannequin from several sharp-shooting paintballers as they take it from the limo, to the "red carpet", and then to the "stage door". The men are divided into three teams of four and the teams must run their Daisy mannequin from location to location and the team with the least damaged Daisy mannequin will win the challenge and a date with Daisy. The Beige Team goes first with Cage as the first runner. Cage tries to protect the mannequin, but after getting hit so many times with paintballs, he says he begins to black-out and the mannequin splits in half. Cage hands it to Brooklyn, who screams and soon hands it off to 6 Gauge. 6 Gauge hands it off to Cable Guy and Cable Guy actually falls on top of the mannequin, crushing many of its parts. The Orange Team goes and Big Rig, Flex, Fox, and Tool Box do a decent job of defending the mannequin. The Black Team defends the mannequin the best so, Sinister, London, Chi Chi and 12 Pack all win a date with Daisy and grants Sinister a VIP date for his good performance. After the challenge, Brooklyn thanks Daisy for his second chance, but says he lied to Daisy because he was drunk and says he's still in love with his ex-girlfriend. He says he's "throwing in the towel". Riki becomes infuriated and accuses Brooklyn of lying and criticizes him for hurting Daisy. Daisy says he was just wasting her time and that she doesn't need him. Daisy decides to bring all the guys to a club where they can all "let loose". While most of the guys battle for her attention and make spend time with her, she forgets Sinister's VIP date, but he says he'll let it go because it was the "rockstar thing to do". She also gets angry with Fox because she says that everyone was trying to spend time with her except for him. When confronted about it, Fox told her he doesn't want to compete with twelve other guys. The next day, Daisy has a romantic art date with 12 Pack, Sinister, Chi Chi, and London, where she paints on their bodies and they paint on her. 12 Pack opens up a lot and talks about his past love life. Sinister connects with Daisy and kisses her, which makes Chi Chi jealous. Chi Chi then kisses Daisy all over her body, which she found creepy. London connects very well with Daisy and she says he could be the one she's looking for. After the date, Cable Guy connects with Daisy and she likes his honesty, but says that he's not aggressive enough for this competition. Flex and Daisy share one-on-one time, and he makes her laugh a lot and Daisy forms a strong connection with him. Toolbox gets drunk and tells the other contestants that he is not "feeling Daisy for sh*t" and doesn't have a connection with her, which angers Flex. At elimination, she gives the first chain to Flex, followed by Sinister, London, 6 Gauge, 12 Pack, Big Rig, Cage, Chi Chi, and Fox. She sends home Cable Guy due to his lack of aggression. She was going to give Tool Box the last chain, but is informed by Flex that Tool Box said he didn't have a connection with her. Daisy asks Toolbox if he wants to stay, and Tool Box said he wanted to stay, but that it was her decision. Daisy said she didn't believe him and decided to eliminate him.
