Shahs of Sunset Recap: What Happened in Turkey?

March 10, 2015 by tamaratattles 67 Comments

Shahs of Sunset Bravo

Mike and Jessica

Well it seems they are wasting no time in dealing with the Mike situation. It seems like it will begin with GG’s allegations but these are just the tip of the rumor iceberg.  It’s seems Mike’s reputation took a beating during this filming.

I am not even trying to be cute when I say I do not recognize this Jessica. Nothing about her  is familiar to me, not her face, not her voice, not her new bitchy ‘tude with the cussing. None of it. Where is holy Jessica who is becoming Jewish to please her man and who is docile and obedient? Was all of last season a dream sequence?

Mike thinks that everyone in the group is obsessed with his penis. This is because Mike himself thinks his penis is the center of the universe.

Jessica completes her final  step to becoming a Jew by baptizing herself in the ocean. How is this achieved by Jewish converts in the desert?  Jessica was very emotional and Mike came out at the end running toward her with beautiful flowers. It was rather sweet, actually.

Asa

Reza, MJ and GG go to Asa’s place to help her eat some more of the food she made for the party and to participate in the requisite reality show recap discussion of last week’s episode. Synopsis: Mike was a drunken asshole. GG has planned a staycation for the group in Malibu and she doesn’t want Mike to come because he’s a douchebag.  Reza thinks that Mike doesn’t want to get married.  MJ who is sitting next to Reza jumps in to loudly agree. Asa who is sitting across from them quietly picks up an evil eye and slow swings it in their general direction.  Suddenly GG say, ” Of course Mike doesn’t want to get married! He tries to fuck everyone he comes into contact with. He tried to fuck me in Turkey”!

Camille Grammer Goes in on Dimitri's Baby Momma

Asa gets up to get shots. GG is visibly upset. They play a scene from Turkey where they are all sitting around in public drinking and GG and Mike are drunk and GG announces that Mike keeps playing with her thong.

GG says that Mike convinced her to come to his room and then he tried to get on top of her. She ran out of the room. Really? This is the complete story? This doesn’t seem like enough to cause EVERYONE to shun Mike for the entire season and thereafter, which is what I have heard.

Asa and MJ want GG to bring this up at the staycation so he can apologize. Seriously? This is not a topic for a drunken adult sleepover (let’s call it what it is, a staycation is taking your kids to Six Flags instead going to Orlando) and yet, on this show I suppose it is. It seems like every season one of the gang is the villain. And despite all the things I’ve heard about Mike, this just seems sort of wrong already.

The four of them agree to say nothing to Mike and GG will deal with Mike directly. That will never happen. Reza will break the trust first.

Asifa is going to shack up with GG temporarily. She is being very demanding to GG.  So GG sets her down to set some rules.  Asifa seems concerned about GG’s knife collection.

MJ Shahs of Sunset

MJ

MJ has a client who is super hot. She seems like she is going to be faithful to Charlie. Is that a used female condom on his window sill? MJ and the client discuss his nudes that MJ swiped from his phone.

 Asifa

I hate her. I’m going to give her the Lily treatment.

The Staycation

When Mike and Jessica show up,  Mike senses that the group is acting oddly around him. The Asifa and Bobby arrive and that whole drama takes over for awhile. I think both of these couple are going to drag the show down. I don’t want to watch Mike and Bobby have a pissing match all season.

Asifa and Jessica get into it and Asifa calls Jessica a hyena. Mike brings up his penis in the heat of conversation. Mike keeps begging Bobby for an apology. Because, douche.

Later everyone comes together for dinner. Oh Adam is there for dinner. I am not sure he was there before. Shervin, Mike’s doppelgänger is there, why?  Reza leads a toast to Jessica becoming Jewish. Reza says a quick prayer.

Talk turns to Reza and Adam’s wedding and everyone has a role in the wedding except Mike. He seems a bit upset by that. Jessica has had enough of the group so she makes a work excuse and goes home.  Jessica tells everyone not to let Mike get drunk and fight.

Next Week: Mike proposes. Asifa complains. Asa’s parents and all their cats move in. Adam and Reza go to dinner with Adam’s parents. Adam’s father seems to have an issue with Adam being gay.

    Not liking the new girl. GiGi’s friend of eleven years seemed shocked that there were knives around. She and her boyfriend/ex-husband deserve each other.
    Reza’s prayer was the blessing of the wine.
    The “Mikvah” scene was offensive (to me). It is very personal and private and not to be done on a public beach with a film crew and a fiancée leering in the car.

        Could it have been recreated to be filmed? Sort of like Kim’s daughter Brooke’s wedding? These fame whores will basically do anything for camera time, but they also ‘stage’ a lot of scenes as well.

        If you remember some of the shots for Brooke’s wedding, Portia’s hair was up for some shots, and in others, it was down. Big Kathy refused to allow filming in her home.

    Of all the reality shows shahs seemed to be the least scripted or had the least amount of producer manipulation, but this year it just doesn’t feel right. I Can’t stand jessica at all, like when did she start hating mikes “friends” ?Unless she was just pretending before and has always hated them. I don’t dislike Asifa but they could kick her off tomorrow and I wouldn’t care.

    I agree with what you said about Jessica, she is barely recognizable from last season. She does have quite the chip on her shoulder but otherwise I can’t pinpoint what changed, but she looks/sounds/acts different. I keep wondering why she’s so obsessed with him…? She is hell-bent on making this thing work. Does his family have a lot of money, or….? I don’t know what would motivate her to go through the extensive steps of converting, rehabing him, and waiting on him hand and foot. He speaks highly of her but it was obvious when he wouldn’t help her make the bed and then demanded breakfast that he has insanely high expectations of her.

      Botox doesn’t make your face look disfigured or puffy. It just paralyzes the muscles so you aren’t able to squeeze them and make wrinkles. They only inject 5-10 units in an area. I get 100 units in the back of my neck to control spasms and I’m pretty sure it’s not shiny, puffy or any different looking back there!

    I think we are seeing the real Jessica this season. She was more demure before getting the blessing of the parents and while converting. She has him now. I see a lot of cheating in their future (by Mike). I wasn’t sure I was going to believe GG about Mike, but I do. I believe he tried to get on top of her while he was drunk. Did it go farther? Guess we’ll find out. I like Asa and MJ being friends. I hope it stays this way.

      Gotta wonder if Mike remembers getting on top of GG, cause he sure seemed surprised that she wasn’t warmer to him. If he remembered, would he be surprised? Anyone else notice how often Mike tells Jessica he loves her and she says NOTHING in response? That relationship is really doomed IMO.

      I don’t know if I believe GG. She’s always had a thing for Mike. I do believe if Mike wanted her, she would jump on his dool in a NY minute. Something happened in Turkey, but it could be that Mike turned her down. GG has as many issues as Mike does.

      GG insisted that she never said that Mike tried to rape her, but accusing a man of trying to force himself on a woman implies rape. I guess we’ll see what happens.

    You don’t have to worry about MJ cheating…CharLIE has been cheating since 17. What BravoTV won’t show is the REAL story of CharLIE telling me we were getting married and then working in China as a basketball coach for 2 months, when he was really filming The Shah’s of Sunset. He returned telling me that he already considered us married. I found a photo of then together in August and contacted MJ. She was nice at first- to get information…then turned on me when I asked her to tell the TRUTH!

    How is this achieved by Jewish converts in the desert?

    The mikveh (Jewish conversion ceremony) doesn’t require whole body submersion in an ocean — it requires whole body submersion in water.

    The ocean immersion might just be a California thing — def. looks like a reformed temple.

    The Mikvah is made up of a collection of natural “living” waters. Most Mikvahs are spa like and there is a certain amount of prep work that goes into getting ready to enter the Mikvah….removal of any polish, perfumes, a full shower scrub, etc. I am not going to go into the whole process of women and the Mikvah here on TT’s blog, but if anyone wants to look it up, you will find that it is a wonderful custom and that is why I hated for it to be cheapened on TV. It is used as a part of a female completing a conversion, but it is mainly used by married women on a monthly basis so to speak.

    Jessica’s mikveh was very touching and sadly voyeuristic, because it was not meant for public consumption. Asifa is exhausting, please disappear soon. I loved all the food from this episode, I’ll take one of each entree. Jessica needs to leave the show, if she can’t stand the being around the other Shahs. If she wants to be with Mike, she should do it away from the cameras and work out their issues privately. IMHO I believe some of her anger comes from feeling duped by Mike to be his storyline for two and a half seasons. Reza’s rants about white people and the incident last year with the young Iranian who was f** straight off the boat did not evoke warm and fuzzy feelings from anyone. That entire episode may have the beginning of the end for Jessica and the group. IJS

    I would like the show better if Mike and Jessica quit. Mike is an angry drunk from 2 drinks. He always finds someone to challenge, may be short man disease. Previously, Reza has said Mike has no alcohol tolerance.

    It appears the breast enlargement condition has newly spread to Jessica. I noticed right away and the flash back to last year had her looking smaller everywhere. Anything to please Mike, I guess. Wondering what she still sees in him. At this point, they may deserve each other.

    Last week’s show seemed to me to have shown GG go from commenting she has known Asifa for 11 years to later saying something regarding not really knowing her. Posssibly more of not understanding her personality.

    I guess I got fixated on boobs, MJ’s need their own room. I wonder why she did not want her boyfriend on the staycation, instead of the male friend. Reza hates him, based on comments made on WWHL, but I would put my man before my friends. Real friends respect your choices.

      @Angel, do you think Mike went after her because she’s young? I don’t know any woman in her 30’s that would be willing to give up their whole identity for a man… What was her prior religion? Why doesn’t he learn Spanish? Why doesnt she have friends? The great thing about interracial or intercultural relationships is the sharing of two worlds.

      ​I have a theory about MJ’s boobs. I think she got some sort of waist reduction. She is always talking about the fact that men are attracted to waist to hip ratio (which is true) so she got lipo or a tummy tuck or something and it just makes her boobs look even bigger. Also some of us have boobs that just keep on getting bigger. For every five pounds I gain three of them are in the boobs. I’m just saying. And it’s not a good thing. When I lose five pounds, ZERO of them are in the boobs.

    The Jessica “thing” is happening, because she blames his friends for his behavior, instead of acknowledging it is really him. So, she comes off as the mother hen, and the nag of a girlfriend, because she is. She has not made friends with the women on the show apparently. That is another one of her problems. The addition of the new couple, is annoying. They are shallow, and so L.A. I don’t see how to resurrect this show. Any glimpses of Persian culture, or real friendship is going to pushed aside by petty backlighting, the Bravo gay agenda, (one season of “shock-it’s a gay Persian”, and I’m over it) and now by Mike’s problem with the new guy.

What in the hell would possess Jessica to go through this whole spiritual process for a man who don’t seem whole of himself. For one he doesn’t have a steady occupation nor steady pay other than the Bravo check. But that is one check and once that is spent then what ? She seem very thirsty to have a man. Damn ! I want one too but he has to have a steady occupation, steady income, be a whole and complete person and among the other top qualities that every good god fearing clean woman is praying for.

    Initially, I didn’t care for this show. Then I started watching last season and liked it, and really enjoyed seeing some of the culture. I’m back to not liking it very much. Asa seems like the only likable one at this point. Can they really never get together without it turning into a drunken fight? For me at least, the characters have to be either likable or somehow interesting. Right now this show is failing on both counts. They’re just exhausting to watch.

    Does Tamara blog Southern Hospitality? Just wondering.

    Jessica’s face has been stretched tight, yuck! And what happened to her sweet even-keeled personality. I think she and Mike are having Steroid Smoothies for breakfast..

    Has anybody noticed Mike’s insecurity where he keeps saying “I love you” and Jessica’s I difference where she does not acknowledge it and turns her face away? Not a good sign for the longevity of this relationship…

      I think Mike is on roids and when he drinks he does a rage thing. We’ve all seen this before by Joe Gorga.
      And yes, Tamara! I thought the same thing as you about Jessica. I saw her and wondered, who is she? I did not recognize her looks, voice or personality. ish.
      I think she’s pissed off because she’s invested her heart into the Mike she used to know and now he’s being a jerk to her and the friends. Come to think of it, he’s been a jerk all along but he got worse during the trip to Turkey. Remember? He was aloof and brooding a lot of the time.
      And, just a guess here, but I also think Jessica wants Mike to actually have a real job and be a real earner… successful ya know? And all he seems to be earning is the $ from the show and not much else. But that’s just a guess. She does not appear to be one bit happy with him.
      I do NOT like that new creepy friend of GG’s. Assif? She’s stupid and rude. She thinks she’s so smart, but anyone who lets their mouth outrun their brain is acting like a vacuous cow. I’d rather have Lilly and her goofyness than this twit.
      I love the Shahs because like you say, they are the most unscripted, but I don’t like the fights. I cried when Asa’s mom and family were together in Turkey. That is what we like to see. People doing real things, being themselves and the heart felt things.
      I want a Shah’s cookbook because all their food looks so GOOD! but no idea what they are eating other than that Persian rice. I hope Asa reads here; she’d probably make the best cookbook (even if all that stuff is catered).

        ​Asa does read here sometimes. And she knows we want a cookbook. She has a lot going on but hopefully that will move up her list! She has a clothing line (of course, lol) well a Kaftan line. http://www.asasoltan.com/kaftans/ It’s super pricey… but lovely stuff. I wish she would do some cotton ones as I’m not the polyester type. Especially at those prices!

          Thanks Tamara! I’m happy to know she reads here. I’m with you on preferring cotton, too. I hope she puts cookbook at the top of her list and do a demo show on what some of the food is and how to prepare it.

        Persian food is very easy to make. You need good saffron and barberries or dried tart cherries to make the rice/tadig. The ground beef kebabs are kofta, otherwise they are kebabs. If TT doesn’t mind, I know of an excellent persian cookbook with all recipes very well explained and accompanied by beautiful colored photos (so you know what it’s supposed to look like/ how to plate).

    I don’t like asifa for the show because she barely seems to know or care for Persian culture. But I think she is the most attractive.

    I think Jessica is the only stable, sensible person on the whole show. I think she loves Mike and knows he has cheated on her. And, she has put her faith into the fact that if he loves her enough he will change. I like how she is starting to become a partner who Mike looks to for advice. Love her advice to him that these people are not real friends but backstabbers. And him telling her he will follow her lead, her saying please do. She is a lot deeper than she appears on the show, she is a cancer survivor (had cancer in her young teens). She has got to be strong to survive that. Although I would walk out on a man who was a serial cheater, if you truly feel that, despite this, the man is for you, you will get him help for his sexual addictions, get him into treatment and stand by him, just as you would for any other type of problem. I can see they love each other. I like the other shahs but every single one of them turns on and backstabs each other; probably this is necessary to provide drama for the show and hopefully is manufactured, not real. Mike is Jewish and it is not lost on me that all the other shahs, who are Moslem, have ostracized him this season. Reza, despite being half Jewish, was raised Moslem. I believe Mike is in outsider in the group just by virtue of his religion.
