Because everyone was so bored in the house and DJ Paulie was Depressed without Vinny, they decided to do something and go get DJ Paulie's Disguised boyfriend back. I love that he refers to Vinny as his boyfriend. I know their love is Platonic, but the smile of joy he had on his face when he made that announcement was just so sweet. In my mind, DJ Paulie Domestic Partner and Vinny are totally boyfriends and they're in love and they just have this sweet wonderful gay relationship and Vinny is the bottom and it's just so damn cute.
So, they all drive up to Staten Island (with Deena wearing her fairy wings, like she's going to a gay Halloween party in 1998) and storm Vinny's house. He's still a little bit off, feeling anxious, and smarting from the enormous "Let Go, Let God" tattoo across his chest (that he seems to regret already). But he agrees to go back. Why? Well, because he's missing out on $100K for every episode he's at his parents' house, that's why.
He even says that he's not 100% but he has a contract, he has obligations, he has fame. Until we can put that into the equation of our sociological experiment, nothing else seems to mesh.
