Barstool Beach House Day 2: Smokes Off?

Night two of Barstool Beach House has come and gone, and won’t you take a look at that... our very own Nicky Smokes is putting up hall of fame numbers real damn fast. As the story of the night runs through him yet again. Though this night will be much harder to come out of in the clear, as Danny & Jackie... or what has been penned JANNY, fell into the Nicky crosshairs on the beach house.

Really overall the night started with everyone vibing, all of last night’s drama behind the group after a full day of bonding and beach time. Katic’s heater just kept rolling, the man is close to touching the sun already. He asked the bar if he could go tarps off... and he was awarded his freedom! That led to another night of Katic’s World, safely removed from the soon-to-be Smokes drama. Also speaking of Smokes...Tommy had a banner evening as well wheeling & dealing, but still holding his gentlemen card in the end.

As the night went on, one thing became evident to really everyone freakin paying any attention, the Conrad & Jackie love story is getting more real by the day. Clip after clip of the hot couple getting close became the center of the night. All Stoolies' hearts were swooning more and more with every frame consumed.

Enter Nicky Smokes... with the night in full motion, and the crew several drinks deep, he crashes the party. With a BIG move, met with the masses disapproval. Nicky starts to, from what it looks like, disrespect and even come between the story of the night... JANNY! He’s even seen kissing up on Jackie, with Danny visibly upset. Here we go... Nicky center of attention!

Danny eventually got Nicky away and Jackie back to the house for the night. But this Smokes Off? Was far from over...

We get a return of Nicky at the house to confront Danny about the clips involving all three. Yes this isn't deja vu, it's anther Smokes heart to heart special. BUT! This was a major moment for Danny, as he didn’t back down. That was important in the clash, as he defended not only Jackie, but a potential JANNY future as well. Watch out, Nicky, because as Danny said himself, “You know how I play... I play hard.”

We might be headed toward a Smokes vs. Smokes face-off of biblical proportions. And yeah, that’s going to be fun, but don’t get it twisted as I still think everyone’s focus is going to be on JANNY.

As for Nicky the total mind pretzel continues, as he has repeatedly professed his love for his ex Annika, while on the other hand making half-hearted attempts at other girls just to see if it plays... Then when it doesn’t, he looks to cry (sometimes literally) until forgiven. He better watch out, there’s only so many times you can go to that well, bud.

Aside from another Nicky-dominated drama fest, we had a lot of great mini moments scattered around the night to keep us smiling. Katic’s post-bar food? Elite. And then Brianna Chickenfry (who had a huge W of a day after last night’s fuzzy outcome) tricked Nicky Smokes into doing body shots... off KATIC!

We need more Katic. I felt going into this one that he could be a star, and through two nights, he hasn’t disappointed. Feed us KATIC content!

The other major storyline of the night? Comes from THE BABYSITTER... yep, Dante The Don finally made his long-awaited entrance, and was immediately disgusted with the overall effort, chirping about this 1AM last-call mentality. You really have to wonder if he’ll last. Not because he can’t keep up... but because he might get fed up with being slowed down.

Day 2 of the Beach House, as of 2:30 AM(sorry if anything major still could occur, but I gotta get this recap out!), JANNY has found a way into our hearts.  Taken the world by storm, only to be derailed by the villain...Nicky, who forced his way between America’s Sweethearts. Will this be a move he truly regrets?

Even with a long list of enemies, Nicky might have met the one that carries all the cards...

DANNY CONRAD.
