After an eventful week of getting served cease and desists, the girls discuss their "Playboy fatigue" before getting into the second half of The Girls Next Door Season 2 Episode 14 "Rabbit Season." The show sends us down a spiral of being asked to judge other women and then get judged for judging the women, where beauty vs. brains stood in the process of hiring the next generation of Playboy bunnies and the weird way the current girlfriends would be pitted against the ex-girlfriends. The girls dive into a Playboy related murder, Bridget's first grotto experience, backdoor pilots, the time an intervention was staged on Holly and so much more!
