Real Housewives of Beverly Hills: Crying Shame

March 14, 2018 by tamaratattles 148 Comments

It’s midnight, and I’m exhausted so I’ll just remind the new people that they are going to need to clutch their pearls now if typos, or more commonly, using a weird homophone in place of the word I mean, or leaving off the end of words entirely bothers you. My old brain is atrophying at a record pace.

We start at the end with Teddi leaving a luncheon in tears after a whole lot of yelling and then roll back the lunch that Rinna and Erika had with Eileen five days earlier. Here is the thing. This was played, I believe on the legit Bravo website as sort of lost footage that would not be shown. The fact that they are showing it now indicates to me that they ended up having to take another scene out. I find that interesting. This scene is Eileen being shocked that Erika and Rinna are getting along with Dorit. Lisa says she and Dorit are both “cancers” as in the sign of the crab. And I cannot believe for one moment that Dorit is a cancer. I’m going to need to see a birth certificate. I’m a cancer and Rinna makes sense but Dorit not so much. Then again, this scene was likely put in to foreshadow the end of Erika and Rinna’s friendship with Dorit. All though no signs are currently pointing to that. 

Kyle

Kyle makes falafel for Mauricio and shows him some catalogs for chandeliers and things she wants for the house. Why oh why do we not get to see the catalogs? They are all blurred out! She also wants to go look at one of his listings because she wants to see the floors to see if that is what she wants in her house. And this is how it came to be that she ends up buying the house. The thing is she is moving away from construction and into even more construction.

Teddi

Rinna and Teddi go to the nail salon. I don’t understand why Rinna is with Teddi if she is such BFFs with Dorit now. Rinna says that the first person she saw when she came back from NYC was Dorit. They went to dinner because it was on the call sheet. What was not on the call sheet was the whole being nice to her and having fun part, Rinna. Sigh. Also, Dorit has taken over the role of the person who gives uncomfortable hugs from Eden. She has no physical boundaries with these women and almost went in for a kiss on Rinna’s famous lips. No. Just Noe. Rinna explains to Teddi that she didn’t get along last season with Dorit but they have put things behind them. Teddi says she has a problem when one person thinks things are going one way and the other person is up to something else. Then Teddi says, “I’m uncomfortable having this conversation with you right now.” That is first year housewife speak for, “Production is making me tell you this.” Basically, Teddi tells her that they don’t trust that she is wanting to move on and that Dorit continues to trash talk her.

Erika

Erika is doing a photo shoot. Shocking, right. She reminds us that it is expensive to be her. Now she is doing the shoot for the cover of her book. I may just be tired, but I might be getting tired of Erika.

Dorit

I can’t with these fake Peakaaay scenes with Dorit and their fake businesses and the conversations about how successful they are. Basically, Peakay and some other guy explain Dorit’s swimsuit line to her.

LVP

LVP takes Teddi to PUMP for the first time. She orders her own rosé because she hopes that will sell a few bottles forcing Teddi to order the same. Let’s see if Teddi drinks it.

In dueling scenes, we have Dorit at Erika’s drinking champagne. Dorit tells Erika about the name change of “her” swimwear collection which she hates. But she gives Erika the same ridiculous story about it that Peekay gave her. The delusion and lies are strong in this one.  Then Dorit goes on to talk about LVP and Teddi and how close they are. Erika rolls her eyes and says “Why, because they ride horse together?” Well, Erika, that would be a better reason for LVP to be friends with someone than any of the other new housewives she has tried to corral. Dorit says LVP calls her Teddi bear. OH THE HORROR! Erika mocks her for being so needy of LVP’s attention.

Note the dog in Teddi’s Plate

Back at PUMP Teddi Bear still has a full glass of Vanderpump Rosé as she tells LVP she needs to have a one on one conversation with Dorit. Teddi doesn’t like having serious conversations with people with an audience.

Dorit tells Erika that she has “moved passed it” with LVP. First of all, “moved past it” should be the drinking phrase of the night. Secondly, one does not move past something unless one is the offended party. Dorit is doing all the things that OTHER PEOPLE decide to move past. As Erika points out, LVP will continue to punish her for it. Dorit tells Erika that as far as Teddi is concerned, she told her that conversations with her keep going around and around and around.  She says she is shocked by that because that is how she feels about talking to Teddi. It’s because you start the same conversations with her you nitwit! Erika says that Dorit has issues with everyone except for her and Lisa Rinna.

Kyle

Dear Kyle, thank you for being fabulous and taking your gorgeous, filthy rich husband to look at an amazing fancypants estate and bringing the cameras along. This is what this show is supposed to be about. Also, thank you for not having any bitch sessions this episode and filming with your family instead. Being a producer does have its perks.

The old Smokey Robinson estate is gorgeous. I wonder if I could Kato Kaelin in that luxurious two bedroom guest house in the back yard. I am very quiet. You will never see me, and I will like in court if you murder someone and slip through the back gate. Especially if it is Dorit. But even if it’s Brandi. I’m ride or die. Thank you for your consideration.

The Afternoon Drinks From Hell

Teddi wants to drive Dorit to drinks so she can speak to her one on one before the full cast brawl. Dorit agrees but mocks her after she hangs up.

Rinna, Erika, Kyle and LVP arrive first but not together. Before LVP even greets everyone Kyle blurts out to LVP, “Do you want to be jealous?” Oh Kyle, this is not how it is done. Let the elderly woman with the unfortunate black jumpsuit with the cutout black lace sleeves and visible zipper and thick red glossy vinyl belt take a load off and order a drink first. Then just casually mention that you are ever so tired of the noise at your house that you simply decided to purchase the Smokey Robinson estate in the valley. It was the jackhammers that did it. You simply could not abide the noise. Oh it was just about Kyle’s new red boots. The chyron let’s us know they are $850.  There are hairdressers on MAFS with Loubs these days. Why are you low balling her?  Ah, nicely played. Now she drops the other boot so to speak and say she bought the house. This chyron tells us that the sales price was $8,253,000.

Teddi and Dorit have the same driver. Teddi overuses the phrase “long and short of it.” On this show there is no short of it. When Dorit asks what she wants to say, Teddi says, “Long and short of it, I don’t want to make a bigger deal out of it than it is…” And we go to commercial.

Then after the commercial we see Camille show up and Dorit coming into the restaurant and I rewind thinking I missed the conversation. But they didn’t show it.  Dayum you, production! Kyle has to leave early because she has very expensive tickets to take Portia to Hamilton. See? Kyle is the housewife I want to watch. Before Kyle bails, Rinna invites everyone to lunch with her mother who is coming into town this week. Kyle dips.

Camille asks Dorit if she is okay with the gag. Dorit shrugs. Camille says “Okay good.” LOL. I love Camille. The Dorit says, ” I thought we were over that, it’s just that when things come out months later, as we discovered today…” Dorit glares at Teddi.  Rinna says why don’t you fill everyone in to Dorit. Dorit tells Teddi to fill everyone in. Teddi says she didn’t want to discuss it with the group which is why she talked to her about it in the car. If Dorit wants to bring everyone in, then she can.  Teddi tells us in a talking head that she wanted to protect Rinna by not repeating the story over and over and over again.

Flashback to the car scene which is taking place as the van is desperately trying to get into the flow of traffic on the one way street where Dorit is living. It’s a logistical nightmare. Basically, Teddi says that she was with Rinna and she was saying how she believes that Dorit has put their issues in the past and they are moving on when Teddi knows that she trashed Rinna at every turn. Of course Dorit in her fakest of accents (I do think the accent is much worse when she is lying) goes in on Teddi for starting shit about her with friends that she has had issues with in the past.

So at drinks, Dorit says that Teddi tries to pretend she is not shit stirring when she is the cause of everything. OH MY GOD. This woman is diabolical and such a blame shifter. Rinna tells Teddi that it is very odd that she waited so long to say anything to her. That’s called NOT BEING A SHIT STIRRER, RINNA.  Teddi says she has not talked to Rinna until the nail salon and didn’t know that she thought Dorit was over their differences until then. Dorit then turns to LVP and says about Teddi, “This is your friend.” Really? This women is delusional.  Teddi says that Dorit said Rinna is all about “rage and regret.” Dorit stops her and says, “Teddi, let me help you with your issues.”  Woo boy.

LVP tells Dorit that Teddi simply wanted to clear the air. Dorit says to LVP, “I can’t wait until it’s on you!”

Thank God for Camille for sticking up for Teddi and saying that she actually did think what Dorit said would have hurt LVPs feelings.  On that same night, Erika said the exact same thing. But when Teddi mentions that, suddenly Erika has amnesia. When Teddi points that out, Erika starts pushing back on her in rapid fire conversation. Either Erika is drunk or doing coke in Dorit’s bathroom because she is not herself. Tom was still recovering from an accident at this point and it was a very stressful time in Erika’s life. Teddy just nods and says okay. Everyone at the table looks terrified. LVP tells Erika to calm down.

Erika is pissed that Teddi is trying to make it look like she changed her story because she doesn’t have the balls to say it. Well Erika, in your version you were black out drunk. But even if you don’t remember saying that someone is in the right or in the wrong about a situation when you are out with girlfriends, you know what your really believed about the situation when you were sober. So yes, Erika. You are the bad guy here. And Teddi even apologized for offending you because you look like you are going to put the beat down on your enemies in I-Pod in your granny panties. It’s not cute.  LVP says it’s time to go.

Camille gives Teddi a hug and says “You’re at stage one, be true to yourself. Remember that.” That right there was rookie housewife advice. Thanks Camille. We all wanted to give Teddi a hug then. Teddi gives LVP a goodnight double kiss and tries to head for the door but Dorit is guarding LVP and grabs on to Teddi’s arm. She is crying. Dorit won’t let go. She’s literally marching her out. Dorit tells her “the thing is, I’m the one that’s upset with you! You’re not allowed to be upset! ” Oh the delusion! LVP chases after Teddi who is doing the micophone removal and trying to walk down the street alone. Because I guarandamntee you she is not getting into a van with Dorit.

Erika gives a cunty talking head. Shut up Erika. I’m over you and your stupid explanations about how life works. As if you have any fucking idea.

LVP gets into a van with Teddi and says she has seen Erika like this before in Hong Kong with Eileen. She says she really does think that Erika doesn’t remember saying what she said in NYC. Teddi says that’s fine, but if you don’t remember, why are you so upset with me?

I don’t think Erika was unforgivably bad tonight. I forgave her for Eileen for fucksake. What is unforgivable is her talking heads. I hope that the casting call for RHOBH is for Erika at this point. She doesn’t need the money and it happened right after everyone went off on her last week about the previews for this week. I don’t think she could handle being hated. And it may just be too late for that. Puppy kicking is not cute.

Next week: Rinna’s mom comes to town and all the ladies get together. Kyle has a seance party.

    I agree with you 100% about Erika I’m over her and her attacks. For someone that “ gives zero fucks” she seems to give a lot. I really hope Teddi will be back sbd Erika and the (diabolical) Dorit are out. Diabolical is the perfect word for her. I think Kyle is over all this BS snd good for her, I just wished LVP would jump on that bandwagon.

It seemed like he was annoyed that Jerry was commenting how beautiful Dorit is. And I agree she is really beautiful but so is Rebecca Romjin so take several seats PK , Jerrry doesn’t want your wife. He already has one that is beautiful and actually smart;)

        Yes! this was my confusion about the whole Erika explosion too. Erika’s memory of what she “said” is irrelevant. She stated her feelings that night in NY to Teddi, then later is supporting Dorit. Erika got caught in a flip-flop. There is definitely some pretending going on there.

          I was disappointed in Erika at the dinner too. I hated to fall out of love with her but she is being downright nasty to Teddi for no reason. I think Erika remembered what she said just fine but she hated being put on the spot so she was backtracking by saying she doesn’t remember. I like Teddi and I like that she called Erika out like that but Erika seems to think no one can question her ever. Im over her now what a disappointment. I loved on wwhl when Jerry brought up her psycho voice she was speaking in when she went off on Eileen lol

      The way Erika can turn on a dime, so venomous and cruel is really unbecoming. Her response to Teddi was way over the top. She’s used to being surrounded by a group of kiss-asses all day; she’s the mom and boss, writes the paychecks; that’s a lot of power and she doesn’t have any tolerance for people that displease her. I’ve been wary of her since Japan.
      I got the sense that from the moment she met Teddi in Vegas, she was judging her. One of the girls mentioned that John Mellencamp was her dad and Teddi said something that displeased Erika. She snapped at Teddi and and I got a bad feeling. Teddi brought it up to Erika at their next meeting and Erika didn’t seem to happy about it.

    No need to have been worried about your “old brain.” This was one of your best written pieces ever. You get 10,000 points for the comment about Kato Kaeling yourself into the guest house and how you’d be willing to lie about a murder.
    And you were spot on about everything else. Erika is terrifying when she gets angry like that. You feel like you can see the venom dripping from her incisors and there are no words for how much I dislike Dorit.

      T, amazing Recap. I come here everyday and have told everyone about ur recaps ( they have since joined) but rately comment.
      I enjoy your honnesty and even calling out the HW that you really like ( ie Erika)
      Im OVER Erika. We cant blame her behaviot on “something” everytime she goes crazy. When She went off on Eileen we said cops were getting killed and it was a sensitive topic and time. Now months after toms accident we cant blame it on that, especially when shes even mentioned to other HW That he is up and about ( even back at the bar based on the presvious convo with kyle). To quote Luann “please dont let it be about Tom”

      Im tired of the contant dichotomy erika is
      -“I dont give a F****, i have ice in my veins…. yet last episodes she cries and states that she wears her heart on her sleeve! What? When?

      -“im a classy lady …money doesnt impress me” yet like u say TT, she reminds us again how rich she is. “Its expansive to be u”, we get it

      – shes above the petty drama but lovesss it when someone doesnt like LVP. Its odd how shes taken a sudden liking to dorit
      -ger friendship with rinna is not sincere. Rinna kissessssss her ass hard

      -yer shes rich shes having fun, im just over her fashion.

      I miss EILEEN, love TEDDY and Kyle remains my fav for her beautiful life

    Week after week, I try to come up with words to express what kind of person Dorit is — only someone who is a psychopath (or sociopath) could so easily try to deflect the blame the way she does. She makes me ill.

    And I never loved Erika. So long as she feels admired and feared, she is fine. She behaved horribly.

    And Rinna, you are just so glad not to be the bad guy, you will say that you forgive anyone anything.

    I am wishing that for once, these women are shown to be the liars that they are (and two-faced) at the reunion. Andy never does that.

    Just an awful free-for-all (except Kyle).

    Funny how Erika goes after the “puppies” on the show. Paper tiger. Try that shit on Camille, LVP or Kyle. Even Rinna.
    Going after Eileen last year was far worse, considering their friendship. I attributed it to drinking and she did apologize.
    This time, she ratcheted up like a lying liar busted in a lie. So not the clever, calculating actor she wants us to think she is. Unless she is over it all.
    TT, one of the many reasons I am a fan of this site is that you call it like you see it, and will call out your favorites’ bad behavior without hesitation. Erika is definitely slipping fast.

        EXactly. I said on another site the ONLY time Erika does anything nice for someone is if it benefits her. She didn’t give one fuck about Eileen. She waited till the next morning and it was an entirely throw away apology. “Well I’m sorry but (insert ERika’s horribly worried I’m the best most concerned mother face) my son risks his life, blah blah, and I just lost it”. It was painful to watch how submissive Eileen is, Erika could havetaken a shit in Eileen’s lap at that moment and Eileen would have said “no, my fault, I wasn’t thinking, didn’t mean to upset you”. Eileen needs to be cast as the next submissive, geriatric edition of Fifty shades really grey.

    I agree with every word. Why on earth has Erika hitched her wagon to Dorit of all people?! I believe if Eileen were still FT on the show, she would have been on team Teddi with dashing Dorit’s delusion.
    Erika is getting dragged on twitter.
    I hope I’m not breaking a commenting rule by mentioning another site but even the guy writing Erika’s book couldn’t fully defend her behavior .

    This episode provides yet another example of why I have loved Kyle Richards from season 1! She never forgets what this show is supposed to be about and she and her hot husband delivers the fun, family time and wealth that use the be the main focus of this show before Tre hulk(Teresa of RHONJ) had to go and flip that damn table and then entered the ratchet crap producers think we must have in every flipping episode of these housewives.

    a couple other thoughts:
    Love Camille stepping forward and speaking up on Teddi’s behalf and not giving a flip of Dorit’s opinion of the gag gift. Welcome back season 1 Camille, I love you

    I know Rinna is happy to not be the bad guy this season but she needs to be careful not to step too far back and become wall paper.

    Besides Erika’s over the top reaction, the other scary moment of that dinner was Dorit getting snarky with LVP. She’s the only idiot at that table that has no idea what she has just done to herself.
    Is is jut me or is Dorit really having issues keeping that accent consistent this season?

    Outstanding recap TT! This episode really had my full attention which is rare these days. I remember seeing the bit with Eileen very early in the season so when I saw it again last night it felt out of order. But that hotel. Love.

    Erika showed her dark side again and this time it feels like it will bite her in the ass with her fans. Great comment about kicking the puppy. You nailed it!

    The scenes with Kyle and Maurico were the only redeeming qualities of this episode.

    One of the few episodes in a while where LVP showed herself as a fully real, compassionate, kind person. I like this Lisa.

    Disappointed Camille was the only one to come to Teddi’s defense, everyone sitting at the table when Dorit made her comments on Vanderpump was visibly uncomfortable, even Erika.

    Now to Teddi’s “shit-stirring”. I completely disagree with this assessment. In real life friendships I would probably call it that too, but not on reality tv where behind-the-back conversations are filmed and will be shown later. Yes, in real life if a friend privately talks crap about another friend you let it go and keep it to yourself, but this ain’t real life. As Teddi is listening to Rinna tell how things are great between her and Dorit, Teddi knows she has been filmed with Dorit three or four times listening to Dorit trash talk Rinna. It’s all going to come out at some point, and it is going to look like Teddi should have clued Rinna in to keep her from looking like a fool. Rinna is still cool with her relationship with Dorit, so fine, Teddi did what was right. No matter what it may cost a HW in the short term, keeping every thing honest and open works best with the cast and viewers. Obviously, not so much with the Shady.

    Erika. Just dang. Is this the true Erika? If so, I don’t like it. Love the “jump the shark” comments and completely agree. She had an opportunity to redeem herself in her talking head scene, but just made herself look worse. I would never be friendly with this Erika, would not trust her at all. Pure trashy behavior.

      Great point Jane. In “real life” I too, would not repeat mean spirited things said by one friend about another in my circle. However, if I knew it was being filmed and would come out, I would then feel compelled to bring it up because I know it will come out and I would feel that perhaps I could soften things up by presenting it coached in some kindness and/or understanding that Dorit talks out of hand without engaging the brain.

    My issue with RHOBH is that everything interesting between the women happens on sidewalks after a big dinner or while waiting for the car. They wait til the “scene” is over to show their true emotions, which I suppose is only natural in Hollywood. I hope the production company is realizing this and letting their cameras linger a bit longer each episode.

    So i never liked Erika thus i can’t say im surprised or dissapointed by her behavior.
    She did the same on the season of Yolanda where she conveniently forgot about the munchausen debacle.
    I dont really get her storyline….she does nothing except saying how she’s rich (from her husbands money), how she’s independant (because of her husband’s money) and how its expansive to be her (insert Tom money there yet again and although shes a beautiful lady, style wise, i wouldnt venture out and wear 10% of what she has nor do i want to, its so tacky most of the time). And forget about the fact that a WHOLE FUCKING CHAPTER OF HER BOOK IS TITLED “MONEY” like seriously? that such a social climber move….
    Can i also address the fact that i dont like her staff? what do they bring to the show? can we not see them? On a side note just like she likes her staff for kissing ass to her because thats the basis of their friendship, horseback riding is enough to ignite a friendship (Teddi/LVP) y is she so dismissive of that?

    The hypocrisy of “Regina Jayne” baflles me: she didnt mind when Dorit came to tell her what people were saying about her at the beach house yet shes sort of implying Teddi is stiring up shit for repeating what Dorit said about Rinna or LVP
    She pretends to never give 2fucks about whats going on yet blows up on any occasion where she could potentially be exposed. Just put ur big girl panty on, own up ur shit, say what u need to say….then ull be credible with ur zero fucks personality (she should have let this hastag for the real bitch who gives zero fucks thats Bethenny)

    Finally can i say how i love that theres an accountability coach on the show….she creates shit and storyline by being honest and true to herself….so big up to Teddi Bear.

    I can only hope that we get to se fun times between Teddi Bear/LVP/Kyle/Camille

      This post is so on point. I’ve despised Erica from day one. She’s a phony. And a fashion victim. Her glam squad must hate her guts to let her traipse around in those god awful getups.

      She married an old man for his money and he married her for a trophy, so they both got what they wanted, but if he’s home with an injury she’s visibly irritated.

      She’s a nasty piece of work and has been from day one when she went after LVP. She wants to be the queen but that ain’t happening and I couldn’t be happier that people are now seeing her for the talentless gold digger that she is.

      I am so with you, she is so proud of herself because she married a rich guy, who lets her spend as much money as she wants. She “received” her chapter in the mail, isnt she supposed to be writing it?
      People she pays fawn all over her, so she feels like she can treat everyone else like shit? Between this episode, how she treated Eileen, and how she acted in the beach house, she has no class.
      I am sick of these self-entitled people. A few years ago, I was pulled into a side room at work and told that a close friend was near death from a sudden heart attack (he did die) and I then literally had to go out the door and be super upbeat and friendly to a young child I was working with. I am sure many of you have been in similar situations. There are no bad moods in my job, it just cant happen, so I have no sympathy for these people who think they can treat other people terribly.
      Also I hate these “she said, she said” stories, I dont give a crap. Give me Kyle and her gorgeous houses, LVP and the swans and ponies, Lisa with Harry Hamlin, or Teddie’s beach house. That’s all I need.

    I really hate to say this but Teddi needs to toughen her act up, and be quick about it.

    Dorit probably pays more attention in any given day to cutting lines in her bathroom and escaping to her ‘magical fantasy Beverly Beach’ (she’s so spaced out most of the time that the sandpit at the local park is probably magical to her, so I won’t be buying into that particular vision if she decides to branch out into menswear) than she does on her children so who cares what that waste of air thinks. I can’t believe I felt sorry for her at the start of this season.

    As for the other one… If that living the Daddy Warbucks fantasy, paying friends by the hour, Brienne of Tarth in a wig looking motherfucker had pulled that shit with me I’d have looked her dead in the eyes and said word-by-word what Eileen had said last year to set her off. I’d have also waited until I was at least a good 10 feet away from her, because she looks like one of those spitting dinosaurs in Jurassic Park when she gets going, but the point remains the same – clap back Teddi!

Even second season Erika with your amazing trip to Greece and growing friendship with Kyle. The Hong Kong blowout seemed out of place when it happened last season. But now we are getting more and more evidence that she has some sort of hair-trigger, anger issue. Multiple times this season she has had some weird, overreaction. Still love Kyle and Camille though, even Rinna. Hoping that Erika can redeem herself but either she is showing her true colors or production is steering the villain train.

          When Erika told Dorit she didn’t think anyone should be jealous of another woman and NEED another woman like that (Dorit was complaining about Teddy being called TeddyBear by LVP) the last part rang colder than even I expected from Erika the Mean. Not sure if she gets what having a female friendship entails because she doesn’t seem to have any real ones on this show. Not good to be jealous but needing another woman and getting close emotionally is part of socialization. Anyways, I think Erika is showing her real, sad and even scary self more than she hoped we’d all get to see.

    I figured Erika had a shot of redeeming herself by apologizing to Teddy at the reunion, but she doubled down on her c##ntiness in her talking head saying she will never apologize. Well Erika, looks like you have jumped the shark and sunk your own ship. Looks like you didn’t learn your lesson in that past life as a boy living in the bottom of a ship.

    The ladies all need to get together, without Dorit, and agree to tell Dorit that anything mean or insulting she says about any one of them will immediately be reported to that person, verbatim, and to cease and desist her crap. Look, they all know what an evil delusional, pretentious, manipulative bitch Dorit is, but why let her get away with it? I suppose it would be hard to get them all to agree on that point, but it would certainly get Dorit to shut her fake-accent mouth up. I’m a believer in the direct approach, after years of being brought up in a very English way where you’re unfailing polite to everyone. “It’s just not done to cause scenes.” Yeah, right. I’m certainly not known for causing scenes, but you get to a point in your life where you know the correct thing is to address sneaky cows head on. Lisa VDP does that, in a sarcastic, humorous way, and gets her point across without being hateful. Call it passive-aggressive, if you like, but it works. This show has completely lost track of what it is that we like to watch – I really enjoyed seeing Kyle and Mauricio house-hunting together, and love Camille (another one who gets her point across), It was even nice seeing Eileen. Erika sometimes acts like she has some kind of underlying anger issues – her responses can be so over the top. Has she been called a liar in the past or a phony? Is that why she’s so touchy? I like Teddi a lot, but she’s like a minnow in a pool full of Great Whites. I almost wish she’d quit the show while she’s still sweet, honest and unwarped.

      I think being on RHOBH has gotten Ericka to big for her britches. I don’t recall the ladies calling her a cry baby when she cried on the junk boat episode. When you are dealing with someone like Ericka you have to let them know that you are not going to tolerate their BS. Teddi is still learning how to navigate when dealing with her kind. I would have served her her Associate on a silver platter, she would stay away from me. Ericka has a very nasty disposition. She surrounds herself with yes people because she’s not as secure as she wants one to believe and it’s showing more than she would prefer.

    And Dorit? She’s a hot mess. Poor girl. She thinks the more she brings stuff up the less guilty she is of spreading her often-hurtful opinions.

    IT IS WEIRD. Who leaves a small party like that without telling the hostess they’re going? It’s beyond weird, it’s rude. can any of us imagine doing the same thing when at a gathering at a friend or co-worker’s house? Just up and haul ass into the night?

    She acted pissed they all talked about her trashy ass, but in reality I’d say she was tickled pink to be in the spotlight even if it was by virtue of her ill bred behavior.

        Is it really that hard to believe that she didn’t want to have PMS and be bleeding like a stuck pig in a coworkers house with cameras rolling? O wouldn’t want to risk bleeding on someone’s sheets.

        Let’s say you are right and she was sneaking off to be with another man when it was obvious she was on her period… ew. She didn’t make any excuses when she left. She was with her assistant. I don’t see a damn thing wrong with Erika going to a hotel. Or not making a big deal about her exit.

          It’s 2018, and she has multiple options at her disposal, so no I don’t believe her problem was her period. So what if her assistant was with her, it’s not unheard of that such employees are paid for what they don’t see as much as what they do.

            I mean, I guess so. I just don’t see why Erika would cheat on Tom if that was what she wanted to do during an on camera filming. She couldn’t do it the next night when she wasn’t on camera? I get how the period excuse can be used but I totally believed her story about not wanting to sleep on someone else’s sheets while bleeding like a stuck pig. Your theory makes no sense.

              I dont beleive the cheating theory but if Erika was on her period and had agreed to a sleepover and was scared of an overflow she could have just asked that assistant to bring her sheets…it wouldnt be too difficult to make it happen… i mean she reminds us everyday how rich she is….

              I agree with TT. If Erika was going to step out on Tom, why do it when filiming — she could come up with a multitude of excuses to be out of the house otherwise. Second, nothing is more humiliating than having your period at a friend’s house. Also, who would want to go through the whole changing sheets thing? Finally, sometimes there aren’t enough “products” to stem the flow (TMI but Asrhatel is suggesting it.

          I think the weird thing was that she had her assistant get her a hotel room and said nothing about changing her mind. Teddi didn’t know that Erika was leaving until she was buzzing her assistant in. It’s weird because Teddi told them when they got there that if they were uncomfortable they were free to stay at the nearby hotel. So, it’s not like Erika had to give a reason for leaving. It just seemed rude that she didn’t tell her hostess she had changed her mind. Erika stayed there until after midnight filming and not once during all of that time did she tell Teddi that she had changed her mind about staying. That is weird.

    I finally caught this episode and realized I’d lost part of the plot. See, I’ve been turning Dorit out so much I didn’t know the hell Teddi was talking about! It felt like Dorit told the ladies about her 1 on 1 conversation with Teddi to try to make her look bad to LVP. Dorit’s just not my cup of tea.

    The rest was fine, even Erika – though the I’m-an-Ice-Queen-until-I-Overreact-In-a-Ragey-Way thing is getting old.

    I liked the Kyle scenes and seeing Eileen. Come baaaacckkk Eileen!

    Bravo has a misunderstanding of what viewers want. I see so many comments on the blogs about wanting to see fabulous homes/trips/lifestyles/family life. But Bravo keeps trying to add in cat fights. Why??

    Even when they do a trip, like the Atlanta ladies going to Barcelona, we hardly got to see any of the city. It was them in vans; eating in restaurants (and sometimes just ordering American food); them in the hotel room. A LOT of those three places.

    I was recently watching Keeping Up with the Kardashians, an old episode where Kylie and Kendall are about 13 and 15. And the contrast to RHW was startling! No name-calling or throwing things. The big fight was that Kendall had gone downstairs to the “Universal closet” to get a pair of ski pants to go skiing and Kylie took them from her bed because they are hers. So Kendall calls Khloe to complain.

    It was super entertaining! 15 year olds going off on a ski trip? Amazing! A “Universal closet” of stuff that doesn’t fit in their own abundant closets? Fascinating!

    Same episode~ Kendall wants to ask Kylie to go eat sushi with her, but Kylie has already gone out to dinner with a friend so Mom Kris offers to go out to eat with her. This is great little insights into a privileged life where 13 and 15 year old girls can go out to fancy restaurants for no-special-occassion. Just for dinner.

    This is what the average audience wants to see. Yes people complain about the Kardashians, but the show has been on for 14 years so obviously it’s entertaining to a lot of us.

    “Bravo has a misunderstanding of what viewers want. I see so many comments on the blogs about wanting to see fabulous homes/trips/lifestyles/family life. But Bravo keeps trying to add in cat fights. Why??”

    Because although lots of people really do want to see less catfighting, the majority of people want to see women brawling. This is proven out by the ratings. Have you ever read the comments of a show here that has no major drama? There are not many comments at all and most of them are from people complaining how boring the show was.

    If it wasn’t working for Bravo, they wouldn’t have such a lust for misogyny. The truth of the matter is most women who watch these show love the brawling and screaming profanities at each other.

      I agree! I loved the shows like Tour Group(because it was a balance of seeing the beautiful places they visit and sprinkles of drama) and Ladies of London(legit wealthy women, authentic friendships that span 10 plus years, scenes from beautiful castles and estates) which are stark contrast to what Housewives have become but those shows are no longer on because viewers only want to see cat fights so that is what Bravo is producing.

    Congrats, Erika, on actually making LVP and Dorit look kind hearted. Up until this week, I’ve enjoyed Erika for being good TV, but the mean girl + paying for fame/spins/tours is getting old and her talking heads show why she doesn’t have true female friends in real life (her assistant doesn’t count).

    Please just show Kyle and Mauricio home shopping and vacationing for the rest of the season.

    I was really wish someone else would have commented by now on Dorit’s champagne glass comment. While I totally agree with LisaR on being happy with a red solo cup anytime, my Mama would not have liked that trumpet glass for her champagne. My Mama would have had the manners not to mention it to her hostess, but I would have heard all about it on the way home. I don’t care how much it cost, it was a tacky glass and truly not a good glass to serve champagne.

    Comments aren’t loading so someone has probably said this, sorry. I think Erica’s behavior is on par for being raised the way she was and marrying the man she did. Weakness isn’t allowed and tears are not allowed, suck it up and never let them see your weaknesses. She’s ALWAYS been this way. Tom shushes her, her mom said go get it you’re on your own, etc… I get it. Shut them down if they find your weak point. Great recap TT!

      I absolutely agree! Erika has very strong opinions and she doesn’t hold back….remember the “cunt” conversation that took place a few seasons ago. No apologies needed Erika, you are allowed to express your feelings, just because it caused feathers to get ruffled, WHO CARES!
      Strong women don’t like their “friends” to call them out in front of other people, isn’t that why Teddi always wants to have a private conversations.
      I love these ladies because of all of the shenanigans, I never expect them to do or say the right thing….but then there are the moments of great clarity such as last season when Erika told Dorit “you don’t have anything important to say” or something to that affect. I live for those moments!! Laugh out loud for sure!
      Cheers to all on this beautiful day here in Colorado 🙂

    I love Erika, but she has a history of amnesia. Her first season with Yolanda, something similar happened where she lied about something, got caught, and basically said she didn’t give a shit and to get over it. What’s her problem with Teddi anyway? I would think out of everyone, she’d get along with Teddi the most since she’s very similar to Eileen.. except she can’t get Erika on Y&R! She’s been a bitch to her all season for no reason.

    I love Camillle and was so happy when she was supportive of Teddi. Also, LVP needs to send Teddi a thank you basket because her friendship with a Teddi is making me like her again.

    Erika would get shredded in a second on any of the other franchises, especially NJ or ATL. Her ego is out of control and she is more two-faced than any of them. I’m so sick of everyone sucking up to her and being afraid to speak up against her, especially Rinna. Every time Erika talks, Rinna just nods along with everything she says. I suppose Rinna has very few allies left after everything she’s done to LVP, Dorit, and Kim. I still think she’s the only one with the balls to go after Erika though if she ever said anything against her and I’d pay big money to see that.

    Erika has been looking for a reason to dislike Teddi from day one. She has been so jealous of her, it is crazy. It all started with the father envy. She was jealous of Dorit her first season, too. Teddi is the new improved version- rich, famous rock star dad ✔️, hot, age appropriate husband✔️, hotter, younger and ripped✔️, overall good person and happy is the killer! Teddi’s tag line suits her. She is just trying to be the best person she can be- honest and full of integrity. Erika can’t stand the reflection in the mirror. She knows she lied.

    I have a different take on Erika and Teddi. I’m okay with both of them and want to see them evolve on there. If they look back they could see how they baited themselves in this whole thing back in New York when they should have sat this one out. However, I don’t think their agendas go as LVP who uses people in the form of caring. So these women have pinions and end up expressing them . Erika is hit and miss on the show. But I do like her as Erika Giraldi off the show from most of what I’ve read and seen. I think she tries to film by being reserved but it ends up working against her. She reminds me of Camille in that way.

    This is just Teddi’s first season. I don’t know how much I like her or not especially when you have some one like Dorit with her river mouth on there. It’s easy to look more sanctimonious than you actually are. She’s ok so far and needs time to grow on the show like they should have allowed Joyce to do a few years ago. But I would like to see her come back because I like opinionated women which is what she is and so is Erika. And this really isn’t an easy franchise Lol. There is a whole other level than what is just shown on the surface and then their is the audience of this one that is pretty extreme online.

    I don’t think Erika should leave or quit. She’s not the only one who has had outbursts like that one the show. Kyle had some epic ones in the first couple of seasons and she was a mean girl. But she’s a veteran of the show now and actually knows how to play show game with the audience in mind, and the cast better where she stirs the pot more than people even call her out for. People always say how smart LVP is on the show or manipulative. But to me, Kyle is socially smarter than her (on the show with the women) when it comes to being connected with as many women as she can on the show. Most of then genuinely like her. And it would take a lot of them to come after her or even call her out consistently even she she stirs the pot like she does. I think Erika needs more of a balance on the show. The expensive stuff is fine but you don’t have to keep saying it. And she is too over the top sometimes. I get it’s fun to dress up. But I think she looks absolutely ridiculous in her interviews and it hinders her looks. Maybe she filmed some more balanced interactions and it’s not shown, but she should bring more people on with her besides Mikey and her staff. Even if it’s having her mother come visit in a lighthearted way or whatever or whoever to show something different. Play with your dog or something. Again, she may have but there’s not enough relatable moments is what I’m saying.

    Teddi is far from perfect and can be passive aggressive and overly self-righteous. I get the feeling it’s because she is coming in now knowing anyone and is sensitive like she said. She was far from innocent in that conversation with Erika and her take from that interaction in Vegas ,in which she confronted Erika about , was a bit off if she watched it back. Doesn’t mean a shot to the face was warranted . But I don’t think it’s as serious as how people are acting on social media who end up being just as vile and mean as they accuse some of the women. They also did it to Eileen. I get stating an opinion of behavior but some of them act like they are on the wrong side of normal over a TV show. If E and T both stay, I hope they both can talk one-on-one and move past this next season. It’s still fresh and will be for the reunion. But sometimes people just don’t ‘mesh in the beginning or things get twisted.

    I feel like Erika wants to be bff with Boy George. She wants to go on tour with him and thus is getting cozy with Dorit. I agree with another commenter on bere who said she is usually kind to the people who can benefit her. And that hatred she had for Teddi was bc Erika has worked sooo hard to get close to Dorit that was her “nothing & nobody” is going to get in my way!!!
