Operation Repo - Matt Flips The Car

That was a crazy episode of Operation Repo tonight. It's a half hour show and it seems like the entire show was devoted to one repo. They got a BMW without any problem. The alarm, a honking horn, is going off and no one comes out. They hook up the car and get going.

But for some reason one of the cameramen gets in the car and refuses to get out when the repo guys tell him to. Stupid. I thought that was illegal. I remember them saying it was illegal when I was a kid, to be in a trailer, whatever is being pulled.

Then as they're going along this one repo guy, Matt, who's a real hothead anyway, has to go to the bathroom desperately, No. 2. So he's driving fast. The other guy is telling him to slow down. He runs a stop sign and about wipes out in cross traffic. Pretty soon they go around a corner pretty fast and the BMW flips over. It's crazy. The camera guy is still in there. They're not referring to him by any name, just the camera guy.

They got him out OK. And I don't know if Matt still had to go to the bathroom, because he wasn't saying anymore. By now he's concerned about the camera guy. The other repo guy is frantic. They have to call in to headquarters, and the owner of the repo place, Lou, comes over. He fires the camera guy and fires Matt.

I haven't been watching this show very long, but they said Matt has been fired before, but not for anything quite this bad.

Funny show. On Tru TV channel.
