Previously: Holly and Lauren had a summit of sorts, and Audrina finally saw the JustinBobby we all see.
A couple weeks ago, when data on the ridiculously inflated "salaries" of the people on "The Hills" was leaked, we wondered not why LC was making so much but why glorified cameo players like Brody and Stephanie were making anything for essentially being friends with LC. Well, this week they had to step up their game when LC went to Italy on vacation and suddenly they needed to start creating some plot. Well, it sort of worked!
While Lauren was out, Audrina and Lo buried the hatchet. And just in time, because Stephanie came over to ask Audrina's advice about the cute guy that just asked her out -- Duh Doug! She ought to wait to go out with him, but...

Previously:LC and Audrina made up. Spencer convinced Holly her sister wanted her out--until the girls actually talked and he lost.
After three seasons of just going to work and having no one pay attention to her, Audrina finally gets the job spotlight turned on her. She's been tapped to plan the first LA appearance for a new Epic band called thewhitetieaffair at the Roosevelt Hotel. And the president of Epic is going to be there!
Everyone's in her corner--except JustinBobby, who promises her with puppy-dog eyes that he'll be there and then doesn't show. Shocked? Her roommates aren't, although they gamely show up and dance to the music.

Previously: Frankie's birthday was ruined--don't you remember yesterday? And Spencer was a jerk.
In their infinite wisdom, MTV gave us only a night of suspense to find out what happened to Doug and Brody when they were "in jail" in Vegas at Frankie's birthday party. (Poor Frankie. He gets about 5 seconds of screen time this week.) Turns out, the boys were in jail filing an incident report after some drunk punched Doug. "Idiots," Lauren stage whispers. At least she won't have to go to the "bail bond store" and buy these boys their freedom.
The real drama, as has been teased after every show this season, went down at the Chatheau with Lauren and Audrina's long-awaited confrontation.
Meet Frankie Delgado (at right). Frankie is an LA event planner who DJs for the heavy metal band the Deftones. Once part of the quickly canceled MTV reality series "Twentyfourseven," Frankie has been linked to Hilary Duff in the past. And it was his rotten luck to be friends with Brody Jenner whose crowd completely ruined his birthday.
Since he gets about one minute of screen time, total, in the episode featuring his birthday, we thought he deserved pride of place before the jump.
Frankie, we're so sorry. From the looks of it, you didn't even get paid for this farce. Now go and get some real friends.
There's so much drama on the set of "The Hills" this month--but none of it has to do with the girls, the clubs or Kelly Cutrone. Neighbors of the house where LC, Lo and Audrina moved last season claim--gasp!--the girls don't actually live there!
Lauren picked out the $2.36 million house because she was tired of renting and wanted to live with friends. But locals say the girls are using the chatheau as a soundstage (a no-no in a residential area), leaving a lot of lights on and drawing the paparazzi onto a formerly quiet block.
MTV producers had promised all their equipment for shooting fit into one van which they could keep on the property. That appears to have been a whopping lie.
So if Audrina's moving out when season four premieres in August, will that be her actual apartment? Or just another set? We can hardly wait!
When we left off with this season of "The Hills," LC and Audrina were headed for trouble over a division in the Chatheau. Apparently they've patched that up, if this photo taken outside the Crown Bar in Los Angeles is any indication. (The place is a former gay dive turned celeb hot spot.) Ratings stunt, or BFFs forever?
Our pet theory is that LC will keep Audrina in her good graces so long as she wears those silly vests that flatter no one and make La Conrad look put together. What do you think?
