You may notice that this is not a Vince/Eric story. Believe it or not, I can actually be convinced that the world of Entourage does not revolve around Vince and Eric's true, pure, bitchy love; but generally it's only because of zahra's mad skills at Ari Gold characterization. This is a) hilarious; b) from Lloyd's perspective, and thus for the win; c) a great pick up to the season three finale, which left us all hanging like a bitch. It's been jossed, but is so totally worth your time to read. Por ejemplo:
On day three of TVC, Ari comes to the office wearing his best Brioni suit and the blood red tie that always makes Lloyd think of filet mignon and Jaws. Ari only wears this tie when he's been dreaming of sacrificing babies in front of god, the paparazzi, and everyone eating at The Ivy.
Lloyd knows this because Ari told him about this dream the day after Vince told the Foreign Press that the new and improved Queens Boulevard was a piece of shit.
That was a rough week.
Lloyd misses that compared to this.
Today, Lloyd makes twenty-three calls to Eric's cell phone, every last one of which goes to voice mail. He calls Vince six times, Turtle fourteen and Drama none.
Nobody hangs up on Lloyd.
Of course, nobody calls Lloyd back either.
