Shahs of Sunset - Season 2So far I am starting the Shahs of Sunset post just about ten minutes behind. Let’s get to it! It appears to be the morning after GG and Omid’s drunken dinner disaster.  GG apparently forgot that Omid fingered her at dinner. How does one forget such a thing? GG is mad at Asa for toasting Omid’s huge  knocker.  Dinner with Asa’s family looks great. The dinner conversation isn’t that much better than at MJ’s Aunt’s house last week though. Asa’s mom doesn’t think that singing is a job. She wants Asa to go back to school and be a psychologist. Asa is doing just fine with her real estate investments, her singing and, did mama happen to notice the camera crew in her dining room? Seriously.

Next up is Lilly. She was a lawyer for five minutes but she realized her true calling involved lots of cosmetic surgeries and false eyelashes. She has a jewelry safe on a counter in her bedroom. That makes it easy for the burglars to just pick up one thing and go. I’m sorry but I am forwarding through this. I think it was the infamous crotch juice scene from the previews. BLECH.

Hey! We get to see MJ and her Dad for a change. She has decided to dye his hair. What could possibly go wrong? She was going for black but ended up with purple. Close enough. He is the most tolerant man in the world. It was a sweet scene. Let’s get to the pool party.

ShahsRezaLillyNope first, we must endure another Lilly scene, with my Reza. His eyes go straight to her men’s Rolex. All Lilly talks about is how fabulous she is. Lilly goes in on “LA Persians” and I know Reza would not put up with that from anyone else. It’s like he is under the Lilly spell. I love him in the bowtie in his talking heads. YAY Lilly decides to skip the BBQ/Pool Party! Perfect.

On to a dinner date with Mike and Jessica. Under Jessica’s name it says Mike’s girlfriend. I never thought I would see the day. Perhaps, Mike is growing up? Could it be? I suppose time will tell. Mike makes it a point to mention her father is high up in Figi water and she is a rich girl. Then he says that is not why he is dating her. MmmHmmm. She’s Italian and not Jewish. This will not go over well with his parents. And yet he is asking her to family dinner. He’s been dating her for two months and already taking her home to his mother.

Asa and Reza and a tarot card reader/ psychic who is Iranian. It doesn’t get any better than this. I must go see her. OMG I just love this scene must rewatch over and over. Reza is so adorable. Reza is in an open relationship with Adam still. He mentioned it on WWHL.

MJ goes to therapy. Let’s watch. MJ’s parents divorced and her mother moved out leaving MJ there with her Dad. MJ’s mom essentially moved down the block. MJ feels totally screwed up by her mother’s abandonment. I’m a bit more psychologically damaged myself from watching her blow her nose so much.

Reza and Adam are out on a date. Reza said on WWHL that his mother is not speaking to him because the commercials for Shahs of Sunset show him kissing a man. I’m sure this bothers Reza more than he admits. He’s very close with his mother. The couple is going to a cooking class. By the way, I guys I don’t have to reveal the guy in the picture on the Guess who post anymore. It’s Adam. He works for 20th Century Fox and mostly on Ryan Murphy shows. Which means he’s probably met Nene. Reza and Nene did not hit it off when they met on WWHL last year like he did with Kim this year. This is my first time seeing Reza with Adam. I don’t think they are very compatible. I think the psychic was wrong. Reza is going to break Adam’s heart. Adam seems to be lacking a sense of humor and Reza needs that. Maybe he was just nervous about being on camera. Time will tell. As of now they are still together.

Finally it is time for the pool party and I feel like I have already seen it as it has been on the previews so much. LOVE GG’s gold hoop earring that appear to be at least 18K and very heavy.  I sort of missed the name of the guy throwing the party but there are waitresses in nothing but body paint. Mike is being very responsible trying to limit the size of the shots. Reza is giving Mike good advice about real estate. He really needs to get out of commercial real estate. Mike and Reza together probably would take over Beverly Hills.

Shahs of Sunset Cast: Keeping it RealWow the pool scene is not going exactly as I expected. Omid gave a sincere apology to Asa and then said that he felt a bit attacked. Things seem cool. Then GG approaches Asa from the “it hurt my feelings when you toasted to my boyfriend’s big nose” angle and she’s right, Asa was dismissive. This of course will set GG off because she tried an adult approach and it didn’t work. I’m not one to defend GG but she did approach the subject gently at first. Ut oh, MJ takes GG’s side here and this is the being of a fracture between MJ and Reza and Asa. I love Asa and Reza but I think they need to watch this scene back a few times. I know Asa has done some drawings of large noses and she does in fact admire Iranian features, but I think she is rewriting history a bit here. She was pissed at Omid for acting like an asshole. What she feels about big noses has nothing to do with the rest of the room, many of whom have had their own nosejobs. It was a catty remark. Even if she didn’t mean it to be disrespectful it was. Omid doesn’t know about her many drawings of Persian noses. Omid just met her. I can’t believe I am defending the guy who fingers drunk girls at the dinner table, but Asa just needed to apologize when GG said she was hurt and offended and move on. Reza is now mad at MJ for not backing Asa in the argument and appears to be leaving. Omid is trying to explain the context of the situation to Asa and GG’s patience has run out. I’m both proud and amazed she kept it together as long as she did. And she throws my hoops on the ground! Jewelry foul!

Oh, Asa, honey. Now you are going in on MJ too? If this is the reason Reza and Asa estranged from MJ now, this is a sad, sad situation. Where is this anger from Reza and Asa really coming from? I don’t like it one bit. Asa you were mean. You were mean to Omid at dinner. Which he deserved completely. And you failed to hear GG when she told you that she was hurt by your actions. And then you were mean to MJ at the pool party. All Asa needed to do was say,”GG, I’m sorry I hurt your feeling when I called out your boyfriend’s appearance in front of all of our friends and on national TV.”  That’s it. But because she couldn’t do that now Reza and Asa are mad at MJ? All MJ said was she was unaware of Asa’s Iranian nose fetish. And that caused two of her “friends” to ostrasize her? Sad.

Next week, Reza goes off on MJ for “taking GG’s side.” Well, in that instance I took GG’s side too. I adore Asa and Reza but I feel like they are being unreasonable.
