The final episode of From G's to Gents kicked off with a ride on a private jet and was filled with plenty-o-drama for the rest of the hour. The most shocking moment (for us, at least) came when Season One's Creepa and Shotta — and not this season's former contestants — returned to help Fonzworth Bentley narrow the final three men down to two. They ultimately sent Teddy packing, but not before Bentley surprised everyone by inviting Shotta, last season's runner-up, to become an official member of the Gentleman's Club. It's great to see that last year's men have stayed on the straight and narrow!
But let's get down to the main event, shall we? Fonzworth crowned Mito as the ultimate gentleman in an emotional final chapter meeting (we may or may not have shed a few tears!). But that's not all: Bent also told Blue that, although he wasn't crowned the winner, he was accepted into the Gentleman's Club as well and would have housing for an entire year while he gets back on his feet. Everyone's a winner!

What a long, strange trip it's been. Throughout Season 2 of From G's to Gents, we got to know a variety of hard mo-fos -- drunks, bullies, deadbeat dads and so on -- who were looking to change their ways. And on tonight's episode, we witnessed the final transformation of Blue and Mito into proper gentleman. (Note: Daily maintenance is required.)
Hear from Bentley below about why he awarded Mito the moolah and also allowed Blue a permanent place in the Gentleman's Club. Plus, after the jump, Fonzy tells runner-up Teddy why it was so hard to let him go.

We've got some sad news, everybody: The second season of From G's to Gents ends tonight. But that doesn't mean the best isn't yet to come! There's an entire evening of Fonzworth Bentley and his crew lined up, starting with a cast reunion. Riff Raff brushes his teeth! All In dances! Fahim gets angry and has a heated confrontation with Bentley! There's even a proposal!
Afterward, the newest member of the Gentleman's Club will be inducted — and walk away with $100,000. Will it be Blue, Mito or Teddy? Our money's still on our original front-runner, Blue. But we hear Bentley will be enlisting the help of some special guests (formerly eliminated contestants, perhaps?) to help make his decision, so anything can happen.
Place your bets now on who you think will be the second official member of the Gentleman's Club!
Baron had a tough go at it on the latest episode of From G's to Gents. First, he had baby mama drama when the mother of his children paid a visit to the mansion. Evidently the two don't get along that well, and we had to witness multiple arguments throughout the duration of the episode. To add insult to injury, Bentley decided to send him packing so he could take care of his family back in Miami. Talk about pouring salt in the wound!
We agree that Baron had learned all he could and ultimately needed to be elsewhere, but really, Bent? Baron was sent packing before Teddy? We disagree.
There's a reason Fonzworth Bentley's gentlemen-in-training are allowed visits from family members when it gets down to the final four. Sure, it's fun for the fellas to see their loved ones, but — more importantly — the quality time is crucial for the men to let go of their past and move forward with the support of those closest to them.
This week, Baron was visited by his son and the mother of his children, Blue got to see his grandmother and girlfriend, Mito spent time with his girlfriend and son, and Teddy was paid a visit by his girlfriend. Every visitor seemed to be on board with the fellas' progress, but some were less supportive than others (Baron's "baby mama," we're looking at you!).
We were partial to Blue's adorable grandmother and girlfriend — they even helped him stand up to his mother! — but we want to know what you think: Which G has the best support system to help him succeed once he gets back in the real world?
Fonzworth Bentley put the fellas to the test last week when he invited some of his closest pals to a dinner networking challenge. Fortunately for our gents-in-training, most of the guests were pretty outgoing — although we enjoyed the company of some more than others.
So who was best behaved guest? Well, singer Faith Evans was the biggest name there and seemed to be the majority favorite, but we also dug producer Mark Cronin, thanks to his friendly quips and willingness to overlook Teddy's inability to pronounce the wines.
+ Think Faith and Mark were the best networkers of the bunch? Or were you more impressed by David Anthony Howard (Bentley's BFF) Esthero (Canadian superstar) or Dee Sonaram (entertainment exec)? Tell us which Bentley buddy you'd want to chat up at your next fancy dinner party!
A new episode of From G's to Gents is almost upon us, and you know what that means: Time for more of our well-meaning (but totally inaccurate) predictions! The next episode will feature visits from the fellas' families, so you know it's gonna be good. Here's what we think might (not) happen:
* Teddy finally fills the others in on his past as a pimp, and they spend the rest of the episode trying to throw him under the bus.
* Blue, a self-described mama's boy, has a breakthrough when Bentley's mom (the First Gentlewoman?) pays a visit to the mansion.
* Drama between Baron and his "baby mama" threatens to ruin dinner for all the other fams involved.
* Mito survives the family reunion, flies under the radar and shoots straight on through to the final three.
* Teddy's girlfriend has a mini-meltdown when he asks her to stop with the prostitution, but they eventually make up (and she vows to retire from the world's oldest professio).
+ Any other predictions? Add them in the comments below and see if you're right when the next episode airs Tuesday night!
Baron seemed to be doing (almost) everything right during the G's to Gents networking challenge. Not only did B steer clear from alcohol, but he was the only member of his team to win over the party guests (including hip hop queen Faith Evans) and earn praise from The First Gentleman.
Still, there were a couple of fellas who weren't impressed with Baron's people skills -- like his teammates, Lank and Teddy, who claimed Baron's "networking" was really a pathetic attempt at garnering sympathy from the dinner guests.
+ Think Lank and Teddy saw something Fonzworth didn't? Or is this just a case of sour grapes? Let us know whether Baron should be movin' on up in this competition -- or movin' on out.
Stop the presses! Pause the blogs! We’ve got earth-shattering G’s to Gents news! This just in: Teddy is a motherf**kin’ P-I-M-P! AWESOME! Wait, Mr. Bentley, that’s a bad thing? Gosh, times have really changed.
OK, sure, we can maybe see Fonzey's point: pimpin' doesn't exactly fall into the category of gentlemanly conduct. And yet Mr. Bentley STILL let Teddy stay in the mansion? I don’t think I will ever understand this show....
It's March Madness in the world of college basketball ... and on From G's to Gents! The next episode of the show will narrow down our fellas from five to four -- and if we were to place money on this whole thing, we'd bet that Lank will be getting to boot, just because he seems to be making the least progress. But, as we all know, anything can happen when Fonzworth Bentley's in charge.
Time for you to place your bets: Which G do you think will be sent packing this time around? Take the poll!
