Season 3 Episode 4 of Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory!

"It's Barrryyy, Barry Brightttttt!"

I know I say it every week, but once again, The Fantasy Factory crew outdid itself. This was SUCH a funny episode. It had my entire family laughing hysterically. If you are a fan of the random songs Rob comes up with, you will love this episode, I guarantee it. Remember, don't use this re-cap as a substitute for actually watching the show! There are tons of scenes that you need to actually see and hear to appreciate!

The episode opened with Rob sitting at his computer, laughing. It wasn't Rob's normal laugh, it was a deep exaggerated belly laugh. We see Drama sitting at Rob's desk and Rob tells Drama that he could easily be an actor. Drama tells Rob that he was actually talking to someone the other day about how the hardest part of acting is probably mastering the fake laugh. Rob lets out a giggle which leads into a full on laugh, and honestly, it was hard to watch that scene without cracking up myself.

The credits roll and when we get back, the song "Shake It Up," by The Cars is playing while Rob is working out in a gym. This song was a perfect choice for this scene. The FF producers always manage to choose great music for the show. The gym, I've never seen it before, but it looks to me like it is set up next to where Big Cat's old office was. In this scene we get to meet Rob's personal trainer, Alexandra Laws. They are working together on various exercises. Rob eventually starts working on a piece of equipment and when he is finished, he asks Alex what it is. She tells him it is something she created, called the iCore Cruncher. It allows you to do 10 different exercises in 10 minutes. Rob tells her that this is a million dollar idea and he wants to think about some marketing strategies for the product. She tells him she would love that, and Rob goes off to shower.

In the next scene, Chanel walks in to Rob's office and tells him she would like to ask him for a favor. She tells Rob she wants to be in Maxim Magazine. She feels like Maxim always shows really girly girls and she wanted them to feature someone who fit the role of a tomboy; someone more like her. Rob told Chanel, no way is she a tomboy, she is a girly girl. He made her a deal, that if she could drive the T-Rex and do a full 360º spin, he would see what he could do to help her out and get her in to Maxim. She agreed and they went over to the T-Rex.

I already knew this was going to be a hilarious scene. Remember back in season one, Rob had a 69' Camero? It was red and black with the Rogue Status design on it? Rob told Chanel he wanted her to feel the power and he let her get behind the wheel. That didn't go so well. She blew the engine out while trying to start it up, and when Rob told her to get out of the car, she couldn't find the lock!

Chanel - "I have a small head, obviously my brain is not going to be big!"

Classic Chanel moment! Anyways, Chanel gets into the T-Rex and the car starts rolling before Rob could even step away! Chanel was rolling around the factory and she could not figure out how to brake! Finally she halts to a stop and Drama and Big Cat come out of their offices to witness what could easily be a disastrous moment. Rob helps Chanel start it up again and she pulls away. Rob tells her to hammer it, but she is scared. She does it and screams, then stops again. Rob told her all she had to do was one perfect circle and then she has it.

Rob breaks in to one of his famous improvised songs - "If you are the rapper you think you are, and you think you're sexy, then let's see you do a spin, we call a 360!"

Chanel does the spin, climbs out of the T-Rex and high fives the crew. They cut away and the next scene shows Rob sitting in his office, playing with the iCore Cruncher. He calls Drama and asks him to come into his office, he wants to show him something. Drama answers "Alright," with a touch of an English accent. Rob, being the funny guy he is, starts repeating "Alright," and each time he says it, his English accent gets thicker. It was a funny moment. Rob explains the iCore Cruncher to Drama and he tells him he is going to create an infomercial for the product. He tells Drama that every infomercial needs a creepy salesman to sell the product, and then Rob tries to find that salesman within himself.

Rob and Drama go out to the lobby and attach the iCore Cruncher to the door. Rob starts doing different exercises with it and blurting out random infomercial comments while doing it. This was a great scene! If I was just listening and did not know what was on TV, I would assume that this was in fact, an infomercial on late night television. Rob continues doing the exercise, then the rope that is attached to the cruncher gets loose and whips Rob in the side. I busted out laughing at that moment. Just the noise of the rope whipping him, combined with Drama and Chanel laughing was hilarious. Rob comes up with the name Barry and asks Drama and Chanel what a good last name would be. They talk it out and Rob comes up with the last name Bright. Barry Bright.

Rob - "He's happy, he feels good, he feels strong, he feels right, its Barrrryyy! Barry Brighttttt!"

Rob and Drama head back into the factory and Rob breaks in to an amazing sales pitch. I am not going to type it out because I know it won't have the same effect without hearing it in Rob's infomercial voice. Once you see it, you'll know what I mean when I say it was HILARIOUS! Drama tells Rob he will be able to sell anything with that attitude and Rob says he is going to have an entire infomercial shoot in front of a live studio audience. They cut away to an exterior shot of the Factory with Rob singing once again, "I'm Barrrry! Barry Brighttttt!" and then there is a commercial break.

After the commercial, Rob, Drama and Chanel are in Drama's office. Rob tells Chanel he was able to get her a spread in Maxim Magazine. You could tell by Chanel's face that she was really excited about it. Rob explains that they will bring a bunch of outfits to the factory and the shoot will be held there. Then, there is one of the funniest lines in the episode.

Chanel - "So I am going to do a full spread?"
Rob - "yeah, no, well, your pose is your own business,"

Drama and Rob both start cracking up and Rob was talking through laughter, which reminded me of a deleted scene in season one where Rob was teasing Drama. Drama said "I just don't want that big ass piece of plastic in my office," and then Rob said "Woah, woah. I don't care about your big ass piece of plastic. All I want to know is, are you and Timmy in a fight right now?"

Oh man, I actually laughed out loud while typing that out! Anyways, Rob tells Chanel they need to do some practice shots, and he asks Drama to get out his expensive camera. Chanel does a few poses that are not quite up to professional standards, and when Drama shows her the pictures, she goes "Ew, I look like Britney Spears there...on her fat days." Chanel has some pretty funny lines sometimes, haha.

That scene ended and the next one began with Rob pulling up to the factory in his truck. He steps out and he is dressed in an all white outfit with short shorts, a wig with long black hair, and an orange headband. He looked hilarious, 100% different than the Rob we are all used to. He walks into the factory and introduces himself to Chanel as Barry Bright. Like I said before, this is really difficult for me to write about because if you didn't see it, you can't understand how funny it is. Barry Bright is a different person altogether. He is ridiculously energetic. So is Rob, but Barry is energetic in a creepy, touchy sort of way. He makes weird poses and yells everything he is saying. Barry hands Chanel a bag of clothes and asks her to be a part of his Core Crunchers.

Next, Barry pays a visit to Drama. He hops into Drama's office and lifts one leg onto his desk and stretches. Drama reaches for Rob's leg and pinches, revealing that Rob is wearing pantyhose. Drama asks Rob if it is pantyhose and Rob says "Indeed I am." SO FUNNY! Rob invites Drama to be a part of his Core Crunchers. He gives Big Cat his Core Crunchers outfit, and then they all meet up. Seeing the four of them dressed in their Core Crunchers gear was hilarious. They really looked so funny with their matching outfits. Rob explains the infomercial and then tells them he wants to get a Cruncher session in. They grab their boards and Rob skates the mini ramp while doing odd stretches at each end. It was funny. Big Cat and Drama skate the ramp and then Rob skates around the plaza as Barry Bright. It was pretty impressive. The camera cuts to Big Cat, striking a pose in the area between Rob and Drama's office. That was another laugh out loud moment for me. Anything with Big Cat is just so hilarious because it is so awkward. They continue skating for a little bit and then there is another commercial break.

After the commercial, we see that the infomercial stage is all set up. Alexandra Laws comes back in and Rob hands her the Core Crunchers outfit. The studio audience comes in and it really looked like a full on sound-stage. I don't know if you have ever been to a taping of a television show, but this setup looked pretty legit. They had the hype man who hypes up the crowd during filming breaks. They had the cue cards that tell everyone when to applaud. They really went all out for it. Rob gets the crew ready and they take the stage.

We see a montage of Barry (Rob) and the crew doing various exercises. Then, Big Cat gets behind the cruncher and starts working out. Barry tells the crowd to quiet down and says, "Big Cat has an awkward style and he loves silence and awkward moments." Big Cat finishes up and everyone applauds.

Barry begins to explain the product a little bit more and hype it up.

Barry - "...You can take it on trips, you can take it to the office, you can take it to a bathroom in a park. A BATHROOM in a PARK!"

Rob made himself laugh with that line and he started cracking up. I love when that happens, it makes the scene so much funnier. Barry calls the Crunchers and they all jog off stage. It was such a funny infomercial shoot. I'm sure there were a lot of funny moments that they weren't able to fit into the episode, but the editors chose some great ones to share with us.

After the infomercial shoot, it is time for Chanel's Maxim photo shoot. Rob, Chanel and Drama walk in to the DC Lounge, where the stylists have laid out a ton of bikini's for Chanel to choose from. Rob asked Chanel if this was the most exciting day of her life, and then he looked at the table and said in a girly voice "I am getting so excited right now, Oh my god, there's so many kini's in here! So many kini's in here!" It was really funny!

The stylist chooses a couple bikini's for Chanel. Chanel put one on and Rob and Drama walk into the lounge. They look really creeped out and they are both covering their face.

Drama - "I just feel like a sketchy brother. I am just looking..at the hair utensils.." haha

We start to see the shoot take place, Chanel lays out on top of the T-Rex, she skates in high heels, she jumps into the foam pit. I'm gonna straight out say it. Don't get me wrong, I am 100% into guys..but Chanel did look really hot for this shoot. She is such a pretty girl and she did a great job modeling for this photo shoot.

Rob tells the photographer that he wants to get a poster made of one of the pictures, and hang it out by Chanel's desk in the lobby.

There is another commercial and then the crew gathers in the DC Lounge to view the finished infomercial on the big screen. It was SO FUNNY, it came out so perfectly! Rob sang a funny song about "Crunchy, crunchy Abs," and then there was another hilarious line

Barry - "This young man right here, (camera is on Drama), 320 pounds in 2008. He is 135.5! This sweet little thing right here, (camera is on Chanel) This sweet little thing used to weigh almost 110 pounds! Now look at her! 95 strong!"

Barry ended the infomercial with singing once more, "It's Barrryyy, Barry Brightttttt!"

Rob brings out a mock up of the box that the iCore Cruncher will be sold in. On the box is a photo of Drama, photoshopped to be 350lbs, next to a recent picture! It looked so hilarious! Rob sounded like he was crying from laughing, haha. Rob looked to Jeremy and asked what he could do. Jeremy said the item was great, but Barry Bright had to go.

That scene was over and they come back in the lobby of Dyrdek Enterprises. Rob, Big Cat and Drama are leading Chanel in with her eyes closed. There is a curtain on the wall, covering presumably a photo from Chanel's Maxim shoot. They open the curtain, and there is a picture of Chanel with the T-Rex, with her ass hanging out. Chanel said "Wait, you aren't keeping this here, right?" and Rob said, "Yeah, because you can decide, (in a girly voice) you're not cute enough, you are definitely not going to see my booty." then he closed the curtain. "What? Pharrell's here? Zac Efron's here? Turn around, do you see what that is? That's my booty!" It was hilarious! Rob leaves Chanel with the remote for the curtain, and she tries to close it but can't figure out how. "Okay, I don't know how to close it, it won't close." - Chanel.

The credits start rolling and at that point I was highly anticipating the three second clip at the end. I love those clips, haha. When it finally came on, it was so funny! Definitely the funniest three second clip of the season, and that says a lot because it beats out Rob hugging Jeremy in a bear suit. Chanel was laughing at her desk, and all of a sudden she hit her head on her hard coffee cup. We hear the clack of her head against the cup and she stops laughing and says, "Ow." So funny! Maybe it's something you have to see to laugh at.

Once again, a great GREAT episode. Fantasy Factory just keeps getting funnier each week! Next week we will see the sketchiest moments in Fantasy Factory history. I am very much looking forward to that! There are a few moments I can think of off the top of my head that are sure to make it in, shark attack, big cat's catastrophic shit whip, maybe jockeying the horse. I'm sure it will be a great episode, I can't wait to watch!
