It’s game night and I just got done watching! The fourth episode of Entourage season 8 is titled “Whiz Kid”. Continuing directly from where we were last, Carl shot himself and Vince was at his house with Turtle when it had happened. Now they show police and a lot of media (including TMZ) outside the house. Vince is with his buddies and answering some questions asked by the authorities. Ari, on the other hand, is still with Dana Gordon. I really liked what these two had going but I knew it would be short-lived. We move on to the crime scene again, Ari and Vince’s publicist Shauna both arrive and call the lawyer too, Jim from season 7. I remember this guy from “Quiz Show”, one of the most awesome movies ever made. So the lawyer preps Vince and Turtle for the questions and the scene takes us to the next with Vince and E in the car.
Vince tells E that he smoked a joint last week, although it was only to prove to himself that he wasn’t an addict, he still had to take a drug test. So the guys get a lot of home cures to get it out of his system. Johnny Drama gets giant bottles of vinegar for him to drink. But Vince, given a very short amount of time before the test, heads out to Billy Walsh’ place. Considering how Billy himself was a raging addict once, he seeks his help in this predicament. While Ari is late for his couple’s therapy that he himself asked his wife for. Mrs. Ari is furious and walks out. Ari sets up a dinner date with Dana, surprisingly at the same restaurant whose owner is dating his wife.
Billy Walsh tells Vince that the only way to save himself from the drug test is to get a prosthetic thing attached (if you know what I mean). Vince agrees and gets it done. While outside the drug test room, Vince talks to E and tells him about Billy’s helping “invention”. E totally flips out and tells him not to do it otherwise, if caught, he’d be in a bigger predicament. Ari and Dana are at the dinner when Mr. Bobby Flay, the owner of the restaurant and the guy who’s dating Ari’s wife shows up and makes them really uncomfortable. Dana realizes Ari was kind of using her to show off and storms out the place. Ari’s wife calls in a furious tone and complains at the same time. Last scene, the guys waiting for the drug result at their apartment, Ari shows up to join the gang. Jim, the lawyer, calls to tell them the result. It’s negative and Vince gets calm. E asks him if he still used the “instrument” and he accepts it. The guys all get happy in the end.
It was a nice progression to the end of an amazing show. They are showing that the guys are getting back on their feet one step at a time. With the drug test out of the way Vince can finally focus on Drama’s movie and his own movie “Air Walker”. Ari’s wife showed she still cared when she called to scold him. Nothing about E & Sloan though so I reckon it’s finally over. Can not wait for the next episode. Be sure to catch the review here!
