Adam Returns Premiere In first episode of brand new season, Adam Mesh, the runner-up from Season 1 returns back to win a woman of his heart. He was told that a big number of girls volunteered to go on a competition to win his heart and that a couple of romantic experts (his friends from Season 1) will choose between big number of girls-the ones that will try to win Adam's heart. After choosing all the girls, it was up to Adam to meet the girls. One by one, leaded by Dennis Luciani, they stepped out of the bus trying to make the best impression on Adam. Adam was probably surprised the most when Jason Peoples, whom Melana has chosen over him in Season 1, stepped befront of him dressed up as a woman. Tareq also joined them. Later on, on already legendary cocktail party, Adam joined all the girls and he talked to probably every one of them. |

Each woman had to put together her own portable basketball hoop, straight out of the box and then make the shot. The disassembled hoops were intimidating, with literally dozens of screws, bolts and thing-a-ma-bobbies (yes, I believe that is the technical term). Most of the women struggled with the task, but Jennifer L. used her clueless state to her advantage and spent a good bit of time with Adam as he tried to help her out. Tracilee had the inherent disadvantage of inhumanly long fingernails, which Jennifer A. had dubbed ""silver Fritos."" But Christine put her hoop together before anyone else and made the shot, scoring some private time with Adam. Next, th |
