Monday’s episode of The Hills started with LC and pals at beach BBQ thrown by Brody Jenner in Malibu. Once again, it’s a tad annoying that we went in knowing he broke his finger during a football game on the beach. But it was, for the most part, entertaining.

The bash, of course, happened on the same weekend that Brody’s quote-unquote publicist, Spencer Pratt, was asked by Heidi Montag to go meet her parents in Colorado.

Brody was upset to hear this, and ripped Spencer for going, calling him “married guy” and saying that a true pal “wouldn’t flake out on his homies.” True dat, yo.

By and large, Spencer did a nice job with Heidi’s folks, although we take serious issue with Heidi saying she always wanted a guy like her dad – and that she got that in Pratt. We found Heidi’s dad to be a nice, normal guy, thus making this statement really confusing.

Later, Heidi tried at length to justify her love for Pratt, and Spencer himself was awkwardly thrust into the “heart-to-heart” talk with Mr. Montag. Somehow, the evil one utilized his Revenge of the Sith mind-control techniques to seem like a normal human.

Back at the party, Audrina Patridge was having a great time with boyfriend Justin-Bobby. For some reason, she was all about this guy. That is, until he started flirting with other girls, then ditched the event without telling anyone.

He even left Audrina’s bike helmet at Brody’s. Classy move.

Lauren Conrad then consoled Audrina Patridge after she miraculously realized what the rest of America already knew – that Justin-Bobby is an absolute waste of space.

In the immortal words of LC: “Homeboy wore combat boots … to the beach!”

Amen. By far the cutest part of the season so far came when a teary-eyed LC and Audrina Patridge began talking about love and boys in front of the fire – having had a few too many drinks at the party – while trading the requisite hugs and supportive comments.

Awwwww. For one scene, The Hills felt like actual reality again. Cute girls drinking too much, talking about feelings and saying how much they love each other after one of them is spurned by a guy! Who hasn’t seen this 50 times at parties!?
