Bland-Name Product | |
| Spin Me Round / int_2b5ea43c | comment |
Bland-Name Product: Tuscan Grove is obviously inspired by the worst things said about Olive Garden. Nick laments that his high-class dreams turned into a bargain-basement chain. The opening credits show the pasta being made via assembly line. In the kitchen, we see that the dishes are made by squirting pre-made sauce onto bare noodles and then microwaving them. | |

Thinks Like a Romance Novel | |
| Spin Me Round / int_5cd8a3c1 | comment |
Thinks Like a Romance Novel: Amber entertains the thought, but is mostly just letting herself get swept up in the glamour of Italy and the attention of a suave rich man. Played straight with Nick, who is so used to casual hookups that he's completely unprepared when it comes to forming a genuine relationship. | |

The Casanova | |
| Spin Me Round / int_5e2e55e4 | comment |
The Casanova: Deconstructed. Nick Martucci successfully seduces Amber with his good looks and extravagant wealth, but Amber was in a romantic mood to begin with and only gave in for the thrill of it. After figuring Nick out and getting back to work, Amber effortlessly shrugs off all of Nick's charms. | |

| Spin Me Round / int_6fed1f70 | comment |
The Thing That Would Not Leave: Amber allows Deb to raid her closet for emergency clothing, but when Amber takes a call from her friend and politely signals that Deb should leave so she can talk, Deb doesn't get the message and keeps lingering obliviously. It takes a few more tries before Deb finally realizes she should go. Nick Martucci spends his final scene trying to woo Amber with a series of cliches, all of which are so stupid that Amber eventually screams at him to get the fuck out. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Spin Me Round / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Craig seems to be really interested in filming everyone, even women throwing trash away, and he holds his camera on Amber for an uncomfortably long period of time. It turns out he's the cameraman for the orgies. Amber learns that one particular part of Italy is known for pornography where everyone wears masks. While at Ricky's party, everyone keeps asking Amber if she's into "new experiences," and she finds a drawer full of masks. In the third act, Amber stumbles into Ricky's masked orgy. Nick greets all the pretty young guests with kisses on the cheeks, but is more professional with the mature-aged Deb and barely acknowledges the men in the room. | |

Sweeps Week Lesbian Kiss: Functions like one, even though this isn't a TV show. At one point Amber and Kat make out in an alleyway and Amber even puts her hand under Kat's dress—but chickens out a second later and it's never mentioned again. | |

Take That!: After Kat talks about reading the heady novel News Of A Kidnapping, Amber claims not to be reading anything, apparently too ashamed to admit she's reading Eat, Pray, Love. Kat later calls her out for lying about it and dismissively tosses the book to the ground. | |

Shout-Out: Craig screens Life Is Beautiful for the group, apparently thinking that it's a fun showcase of Italy. The next day, he apologizes for not vetting the film beforehand, since it's actually set in a Nazi concentration camp. Kat talks about reading Gabriel GarcÃa Márquez's News Of A Kidnapping, which goes right over Amber's head. | |

Brick Joke: In the first act, Craig warns everyone that Italy is dangerous because of the wild boars. In the third act, Dana is gored by boars, which then crash into an orgy. In act one, Jen mentions that her twin sister died in the womb. In the third act, when Nick tearfully relates how his sister died in his arms, Jen pipes up that hers did too. Deb's lost suitcase finally gets returned at the end of the trip. | |
