Dave's argument with Laura

Do you think Dave Hester's argument with Laura Dotson was real or staged?

staged (poorly)

i was really disappointed with the whole show. Laura was trying to act, dave did an ok job at faking it but was all an act i think. This isn't marvel comics, a villain is one thing but that was over the top.

Dave did alot of trash talking about laura and dan to many of their accounts.  Thats why she referenced that he was trying to steal her jobs.

They did not know dave was showing up so everyones reaction is real.

I actually thought dave was being quiet and somewhat uncomfortable being back.  He knows everyone hates him because he spilled all of the secrets.

The producers gave him a chance to see what happened.  Laura lost her mind and was a complete b in the process I thought and they liked what they saw so they gave him a multi episode deal.  Not sure of the dollar amount but far less than the $60k he was making per show.

That is why the second one, which was filmed a couple of days later laura was being nice to him.  She was told to play ball. 

It would be interesting to see the change, if any, in the ratings.

I lost all respect for Laura last night, staged or not, she sounded and acted like a mentally ill person.

That's totally out of character for Laura. Given, I've only spoken with her for about 5 minutes, but she's got quite the bubbly personality. All smiles. 

It didn't look staged to me, but it did look like the producers purposely had Dave go in and instigate problems. As much of an AH that Dave can be, I doubt he would ever (on his own) say to Laura come back with a man to a man's game little girl, especially on camera.

Yeah, there were quite a few notable quotes in that episode. Here is a recap for those of you who missed it:
