This was the one where Wendy showed her true colors. After this, there was no one left to defend her or think the best of her. Poor Kevin. Yeah, he was a lousy team leader but he clearly didn't want the position.
"Ha. Kevin. Sucks to be you, dude."
Although we'll give the other designers (sans Wendy) credit for at least trying to put their game faces on.
But man, that bitch had it in for him the minute he was named team leader. She knew going into it that he wasn't going to be good at it (as witnessed by his last go-round as a TL), but unlike Jay, who tried to just plow his way through a bad situation or Kara Saun, who tried to take over in a bad situation, Wendy's first and only thought was "How can I make this bad situation work to my advantage?"
"Haha. Yes, that's right. Wendy will never hurt you, Kevin. Do you hear me? Wendy. Will. Never. Hurt. You."
Bitch, you're not plotting for shares in Denver Carrington, you're making a dress. Get to work and stop acting like you're starring in your own personal soap opera.
"Would you be willing to say that to the judges?"
"Listen, I want to win. I'll tell the judges he's been shooting up in the sewing room if I have to."
"Good. Carry on!"
Oh please. Wendy's good at the soap-operatic threats. Hell, it's the only way she knows how to think. When Kevin makes them they're about as threatening as a toothless poodle.

Wendy truly scared me in this episode. Such demonic thoughts! I found myself growling at her.
Denver-Carrington!
Stop, stop, I'll pee, I know it!!

"Wendy's problem is, she approaches the competition not with the thought of "How do I make myself look good here?" but with the thought of "How do I make someone else look really bad here?"
Exactly! There's nothing wrong in being competitive, but all she cares about is how to make someone look bad and what she needs to do (no, not a garment) to win the challenge.
Awww, I love that first picture of Tim. he looks adorable.
"Ha. Kevin. Sucks to be you, dude."
LOL. Yeah, Kevin was doomed to fail.
Pictures are back - yay! It definitely sucked to be Kevin. And Wendy! What a red letter bitch that woman is! Cue the Wicked Witch of the West Theme... now!
What a bitch! I mean, I'm a bitch but Wendy takes the term BITCH to a whole new level!!
"Bitch, you're not plotting for shares in Denver Carrington..."
LOL. That is so funny.
The main problem I have with Wendy is that she so rarely thinks about talent. When she focused only on her own efforts, the results were not nearly as horrible as when she was focused on "taking someone out."
The problem at the end of the day was that she was not as talented as any of the other designers were at this point and she well knew it. So the only things she had left to bank on were her luck and "strategy."
She played this game like it was "Survivor" and not a show based on talent. The sad thing was how far that strategy got her.
Wendy is a mean, cold, manipulative bitch! I really started hating her when she was smiling after Kevin was eliminated.
i'm with toddny, this bitch was frightening in that last image. i keep harping on the smirk and the eye roll, but damn, that was just hideous.
little miss sunshine believes that when people are that ugly to others, they not only suffer from low self esteem but are miserably unhappy in life in general. i guess seeing life from a position of lack would make it miserable, but this is something even worse.
most folks just turn inward, but this bitch attacks. "I'm miserable and I'm going to get you."
I think the lack of talent is the foundation, as everyone's said. There's no real talent there (IMO) and so her focus has to be on gameplaying.
Out with Wendy. But the need for drama will probably put the stroppy cow in the final three.
Her approach is always the same in every single challenge: "What do I need to do to win this challenge?" "What does one need to do to get in that stupid column?"
It's never about her designs.
It's definitely her her way of diverting people's attention from her lack of talent.
BTW, I love that picture of Tim!
Yes, she always talks about her strategies, but I don't think she's THAT manipulative or terrible. I hate when people vilify others who really aren't that bad.
The funny thing is, it was completely unnecessary. Kevin's outfit was the only one that didn't meet the mandates of the collection, and as he was the team leader, he couldn't blame it on misunderstanding someone else's edict.
Glinda sez, "Are you a good Bitch or a bad Bitch?"
Wendy is definitely a bad Bitch.
And after seeing her amature sex pot performance on Celebrity Poker Challenge, delusional as well!

This was her most Shakespearean appearance, I thought. She presents such a confused, monstrous, villainous m.o., yet persists in seeing herself as a victim.
I loved it.

Wendy is truly a piece of work. Kevin was really clueless to buy into her smarmy kissup routine.
The other contestants were aware of this and they just stood by and let Wendy throw Kevin under the bus. (Did anyone warn him? Maybe Austin.) I think there was maybe a little bit of truth in Wendy's meltdown at the end.
However, she put herself in the position of being hated by everyone else so she deserves whatever she gets. Kevin, not so much. He got reamed, first by the producers, and then by Wendy.
Girl. Please.
Wendy is just like any self-respecting drag queen out there. She will bring herself up by cutting you down. Don't be disrespecting Wendy because she knows how to get what she wants. I would've thought for sure you two queens would love the idea of a master demon of fashion, but alas, you seem to rip on her every week. I'd like to see Laura B and Wendy in a cage fight. That's what I'm voting for next season.
Wendy's totally calculated and manipulative, enough said.
This is where the tide turns for Wendy. The viewers knew she had a "strategy," and now her fellow designers know it too.
As you said, she was spot on. What I couldn't stand was her self-serving crying jag at the end. It made her look even more unattractive, if that is possible.

That's when Wendy Pepper, bitch extraordinaire, bares her fangs and exposes her claws. Meow!
I felt bad for Kevin. It was nice to see that everyone had something positive to say about him and the teamwork, except Wendy, of course.
Wendy Pepper can't even spell the word "talent". It is obvious that she had to resort to subterfuge to make up for her painfully obvious lack of talent. She is just plain evil. She and Jeffrey Sibelia are made for each other.

Nope, she's just an unabashed, unapologetic bitch. Everything is calculated to the last nuance and meant to destroy anything or anyone around her.
Please...she treated it like a game with opponents instead of friends. What's wrong with that?
I have mixed feelings about her. I do think she can produce something beautiful, like the dress for BR, when she's not focused on destroying things. But if I hear her say one more time how she likes to watch people squirm, and then bitch about people fucking with her, I swear to god, I'll turn the TV off.
I love how she stares straight ahead when they're on the runway. You know her wheels are turning.

Oh HELL YEAH! You KNOW La Laura would rip that tired harridan a brand new one and mop the floor with that hag! It would be the ultimate battle of good vs. evil.
"Bitch, you're not plotting for shares in Denver Carrington, you're making a dress."
Hilarious, bitches!
suggestion: Wendy in a "hair harpy" cage match with Alexandra Vidal and/or anyone from Celebrity Fit Club (maybe the Victoria Jackson season?)
"Bitch, you're not plotting for shares in Denver Carrington, you're making a dress" - spot on as always, Boys.
I guess there's something wrong with me - I liked Wendy Pepper throughout PR2 - I think because she was always as cold & calculated as I could never be.
"Santiago said...

Yes, but she's really bad at it.

How cute is that? Only Tim would hold the button and deliver bad news like that.
You know, watching Season 1, I always thought that Wendy was a manipulative nutjob - I absolutely HATED all that 'I'm a mom' crap. Whoop-dee freakin doo! (I've said it before; I cannot stand these idiot women who act like they deserve extra credit points simply because their plumbing works).
But it is very interesting watching you boys blog S1 because in every screen grab, Wendy looks like she escaped from Bellvue. Those EYES! She's just crazy all the time. She looks like she could kill you in your sleep.

As usual, you guys have hit the nail on the head. Yes, the surprising thing is that Wendy's comments were in fact right on during judging. But it is highly offensive that she chose to become so articulate only at that moment, when there was no chance for anybody on the team or the team leader to discuss her concerns and reacn a consensus on how to proceed.
Bitch.
I did find it distasteful that she was pretending to be Kevin's friend but I can't fault her for honestly answering a judge's question. Yes, she could have brought up her feelings earlier in the design room, but so could the rest of the designers who were saying what a terrible leader he was when he was out of the room.
This whole Wendy thing was wrong on so many levels. What a HUGE coincidence that the judges singled HER out to comment on Kevin's leadership skills.
Puleeeeeze. SO contrived.
And that manic laughter that night in the apartment when they were brainstorming? Down right bone chilling!!!!
What a HUGE coincidence that the judges singled HER out to comment on Kevin's leadership skills.
Puleeeeeze. SO contrived.
Each desginer commented on his leadership skills. It was edited to look like everyone was defending Kevin.
"I would've thought for sure you two queens would love the idea of a master demon of fashion, but alas, you seem to rip on her every week."
She is tacky as hell and totally UNfabulous. Who cares if she's a bitch? Just being a bitch per se means nothing. We gays worship the bitches who a)are vicious bitches b)know what a moisturizer is.
his voice reminded me of a male version of Anna Nicole Smith.
Weenie voice, as I've said repeatedly in my blog. A weenie, tinny voice. And he's got tiny smallish hands. You get my drift!
Bye Kevin. Good luck, old boy. We knew ye when.
OMG Girls, LOVE the title of this post. You had me in stitches!

I want the peanuts and lemoade concession for that show. It would rake in some serious money.

Whenever I watch this episode, Wendy's little bonding session with Kevin ("She'll have to have a belt to attach her phone, GPS, etc. to...I'm cool! You didn't know that I was cool, did you?") provokes the same reaction: Girl, you are NOT cool, 'cause everyone knows that by 2055 we'll have all that stuff implanted in our skin. Duh.
And then I think: Kevin, you are even dumber than you look. This woman is not your friend. This woman is no one's friend. Her imaginary friends probably talk about her behind her back. Run away, Kevin! Run!
"There's no "I" in "team" but there is one in "bitch."
That is freaking hilarious!
Wendy is scaaaaarrrry! Btw, am I the only one that has noticed Megan Mulally now looks like her? I guess since she can't play witchy Karen Walker anymore she's decided to play witchy Wendy Pepper?

I'm not affiliated with the show, but I've seen the group challenges enough to realize that Wendy was not the only one asked this question. We saw each designer respond to the question, (just not the question itself).
This was a major turning point in how the designers viewed Wendy, and dramatic editing can help show that. Plus there would be many post season one interviews about production interference had Wendy been singled out as the voice of the group.
