    Kilmer, dude!

    Celebs and their girlfriends, huh? There's nothing more annoying than a starlet's romance scandal filling the tabloids, and in this episode of Entourage, the issue is dealt with in a special way.

    Still riding high on the success of Head On, Vince isn't too bothered to look for his next project, preferring to spend time with his new squeeze Fiona instead. Sadly, the guys don't really like her: she's a vegetarian, into tantric sex (you have to wait for hours before actually getting some) and nearly replaces Eric as Vinny's script reader. It just so happens she comes very in handy, though, when all of L.A. runs out of weed and she knows the one person who can get them good stuff right away.

    Business-wise, things go a bit smoother once Eric runs into Josh Weinstein, a hotshot agent who hands him the screenplay of Queens Boulevard, an indie film that appears to be tailor-made for Vince (it takes place in his old neighborhood). This, of course, leads to another quarrel with Ari, whose ego is bigger than ever ("You think there's something in this whole f*cking universe you know that I don't know about?").

    Okay, so the tabloid thing isn't really there (wait for Season Two), but the Fiona subplot is very funny, especially in the last part, where we get to meet her "sherpa": Val Kilmer. That's right, the former Batman has the time of his life playing the ultimate stoner (imagine Jeff Bridges in The Big Lebowski, twice as high), a role that can easily mark the climax of his career alongside Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. Sure, someone could complain about the show's light approach to the subject of drugs, but hey, this is a comedy, remember? If you want a serious take on the matter, stick with The Wire.

      Eric puts his sunglasses up on his head while talking to Vince's girl by the pool. When the conversation ends and she walks away the shot from behind Eric shows his glasses are down at his eyes. After she drops her robe the camera cuts to a close shot of Eric with his glasses still up on his head.
