Gallery Girls, Episode Six: An Art Basel Homecoming for Liz and Amy

via BravoTV.com

After five long, eye-rolling, twisty-mouthed episodes teasing a trip to Art Basel, the girls of Gallery Girls finally made their way to Miami in last night's installment. And the result was pretty much what we expected: the Brooklyn girls trying way too hard, Liz Margulies revisiting her daddy drama, and lots of misleading scenic montages trying to convince viewers that Brickell and Coral Gables are located somewhere on South Beach.

But just because we saw it coming doesn't mean it wasn't embarrassingly enjoyable to watch. And the Bravo producers did surprise us with a few gems -- including a photo from Amy Poliakoff's preppy past that basically explains her whole off-putting personality.

Previously: Angela's show was very popular, not so profitable. Maggie's finally fed up with Eli. Liz gave Amy the gift of her brutal honesty. Liz has daddy issues with her high-profile art collector father.

We kick off the episode with a Sushi Samba dinner with Liz and her mom, in which Liz threatens to force-feed her mother tequila. Mrs. Margulies looks like the kind of reserved person who really goes insane when she's drunk, but since Liz has all that substance abuse in her past, it's probably best that Mama Margulies turns her down.

Instead, we get another rehashing of Liz's feelings of abandonment over her father, who in case you had missed it is a very busy and powerful man in the Miami art scene. She's going to Miami for Art Basel, but worries he won't make time for her. It's a sympathetic story and all, but it's also putting me to sleep.
