Strange Love

Flav goes to Italy and coaxes a reluctant Brigitte away from her fiancé, Mattia, to go spend some time in a Villa with him. At first, things aren't as easy as Flav thought they'd be, but by the end of the first night, he is sure that he will have his girl back in no time.

Flav and Brigitte receive an invite to a Gala at lake Cuomo. Flav bends over backwards to become ""proper"" for the occasion, but he's only willing to go so far (he reluctantly takes an etiquette lesson and he buys a tailored suit, but a pimp suit). Mattia falls out of favor with Brig when he sends her clothes in a paper bag. Flav encourages the end of their relationship. Brigitte admits that when Mattia is bad, he has to sleep in the closet. Flavor says that he would never be like Mattia. They go clubbing, Flav raps. Brigitte kisses another guy AND another girl. Flav kisses another girl. Brigitte slaps him and he slaps her right back. Brigitte realizes she's with a real man ... and likes it.

They travel to Lake Como with Brigitte's manager, Luigi, and his wife. They have an awkward lunch, and a clumsy ballroom dance lesson. Flav's pimp suit is finally revealed as they go to the Gala. Immediately Flav and Brigitte are not accepted by the horrified snobs. Brigitte realizes her friends are a bunch of pretentious jerks. She apologizes to Flav for the way he was judged. They make love for the first time since their reunion.

The lovebirds wake up in Como. Brigitte is feeling guilty about her trist last night. Flav feels her unease and coaxes her to take a bubble bath. Flav tries to be romantic, but blows it when he kicks over a glass of wine then goes ballistic on the chambermaid when she tries to clean up after him. They tour a vineyard and stomp grapes, and take a ferry to Bellagio where they go to dinner. They have a long conversation in which they open their hearts. Brigitte agrees to go to New York because she needs to see if she and Flav really still have something.

It's the final push for New York. After cooking a ""bonding dinner"" for her kids, Flav lets Brigitte go home to face her fiancé‚ and stresses that she might not come back. She surprises him and us by showing up with her bags packed. The couple departs for the Big Apple.

In preparation for his upcoming Public Enemy show, Flav takes Brigitte shopping to ""pimp out"" his girl. Now in NYC, Brigitte finds that Flav's attentions are scattered and they have a fight about him making phone calls during lunch. That night, they go to the Russell Simons PE show. Brigitte makes a fool of herself and Flav destroys his dressing room. They fight and sleep apart. NY might not be all Brigitte thought it would be.
