So, Who Did Jennifer Love Hewitt Jerk Off This Week?: Almost a Cop But Ultimately No One

Rich Juzwiak · 05/14/12 01:18PM

On this week's episode of The Jennifer Love Hewitt Handjob Hour The Client List , Love's character Riley almost gave her signature one-gun salute to what turned out to be an undercover cop. Thankfully, she knew the protocol (apparently, as a hired masturbation hand, you don't offer anything up, which means you must ask those interested in being jerked off to spell out exactly what they're looking for). She didn't end up getting thrown in jail, where she'd have to jerk off for her life (that's what happens in women's prison, right?), but this incident did shake up her managers/coworkers enough to put the palm-calming on hold for a bit. The montage above is a symphony of blue balls. It reads as a high-concept interpretation of the sad trombone sound. Kind of brilliant.
