Episode Guide
This is a spoiler section, so if you haven't watched the show (and plan too), DO NOT read any further.

episode 8
aired 10/7/03

funniest moment of the show: at the intro, where Jess and Lea are with Nick and Drew...talking about Nick's hairy ass...and asking Drew whether he had one or not.

98 Degrees moment of the show: sorry...none this time.

Jessica's blonde moment: hmm...none stuck out...she was fairly intelligent for this episode.

Synopsis:
The entire episode dealt with the filming of Nick's "Shut Up" and Jessica's "Sweetest Sin".

Nick's video: You've all seen it. Him shirtless and with the tank top, dancing around in a "room" with a bunch of girls.

Jessica's video: Nick and Jessica kissing under this cold waterfall and "making out" in bed.

Nick's original video cost: $10,000...and it really pissed him off that the quality of the video wasn't up to his par. Especially, when he finds out how much Jessica's video cost to make.
Jessica's originial video cost: $172,000
Nick's final video cost: $30,000....and that was after much wrangling with the music company. However, both he and Jessica agreed that they shouldn't be putting their own money into making the video better. In return for the extra $20,000 Nick agreed to do more promotional work. The new video was shot outside their home. They brought in friends and a trailer, and filled a new sequence to intersperse with the original video. Nick is much happier with how the video turns out.

Next epsiode: Jessica's birthday.

And in case you didn't know (I will post it later in the week in the news section), Newlyweds will be back for a second season sometime in 2004! Stay tuned. Last episode for this season is October 21.
