Bob signs off w/ the Pet Population Phrase and then heads out into the crowd to shake hands w/ random audience members and the camera gets shots for the beauties, Brandi, back in main attire, in front of the car, Claudia in front of the dining room, and our departing Nikki in front of the motorcycles as she blows kisses and waving to her legions of fans.
This episode marked the end of Nikki Schieler-Ziering's 4 1/2 year run on "TPiR".
A lot of people were upset about Nikki being canned and blamed Bob for her firing and it was said that he would get really irriated when people would ask him questions about Nikki and what she was up to, he reportedly hated when she was grabbing all the attention from the fans. Since parting ways w/ "TPiR",
Nikki went from Barker Beauty to serious actress. Nikki made a cameo in the 2002 hit movie "Austin Powers in Goldmember" where she played one of 4 henchwomen and fires a gun at Mike Myers and Beyonce Knowles. One year later, Nikki sort of stepped back in her Playboy roots...she bares all in the hit movie "American Wedding" where she played topless Police Officer Krystal. In 2008, Nikki starred in a movie called "Crazy Girls Undercover" w/ Clive Robertson and one year later, she and her boyfriend Rick Reynolds welcomed a daughter, Tatum Ella Reynolds on March 27, 2009.
Nikki may have departed from "TPiR" on a bad note but if there is one good thing she may hold closely to her heart, it was her legions of fans who have loved and adored her from the years she spent as a Barker Beauty and her friendship w/ Claudia, who reportedly was livid over Nikki's being axed and it was rumored that she went on the attack against Bob shortly afterwards.
Nice Show (except Nikki being gone) Overall, especially the Switcheroo Win.
