For some reason I have four copies of this episode on my DVR. I’m not really going to acknowledge this fake prenup storyline other than to say I’ve really had enough of this. Tommy is not stupid.
I am interested in Destiney’s “my father might be a spy or a criminal or in the mafia” storyline. Destiney’s mom is still reluctant to help. It sounds like the PI has found a relative of her father’s.
You know what is really odd to me? Why did they have “Nema’s girlfriend” on the show just for like one episode where he could dump her on TV for “thinking about kissing” Golnesa. This week, Nema’s mother came to visit from the east coast. Why the heck is on the green screen for Nema’s talking heads? It looks like a Persian furniture and art shop. Nema brings up the ex-girlfriend as if he hasn’t spoken to his mother in two months. Then we get the weird story about how he was raised by his father and Mona was raised by his mother. Is it me or do they say everything twenty times on this season. When Nema tells his mom he has PTSD from being separated from his mother and sister, his mom cries.
Reza’s house seems like it is taking longer than Valley View. Why does Reza not understand marital assets? He talks to Adam like he’s a dog. Adam is starting to think Reza doesn’t really want to buy a baby. For Reza, once again, it is all about money. Reza seems to think that he is destined for divorce like the rest of his family.
We finally get a scene with Asa when Adam goes to her fancy caftan store to talk about babies. Asa still hates MJ, as one would expect when your “friend” calls your baby a bastard. Mike doesn’t keep up with her much anymore. Asa still texts with Adam and Reza and GG.
Adam talks about Reza making their baby situation all about budgets and spreadsheets and Asa says Reza may not even want a baby. At the very least, he certainly isn’t rushing to start the process. After their talk, Asa gives Adam an $700 blanket.
Mercedeh has been seeing a fertility doctor for four years. It sounds like they have only one embryo so it’s great that it implanted! Things seem to be going well, and it’s a boy! I had somehow already forgotten that. Ah clarification, it seems she does have more embryos but due to her age the doctor just wants to do one. As big as Kenya got, I wondered if she was having twins but I think we would know by now if she was.
When Adam returns with the blanket, and a giant litter box, Reza is not impressed with the blanket. Adam goes straight to asking Reza if he really wants to have a child. Reza says he does, but he’s not ready to do it right away. Adam wants to raise their kids with Asa’s baby and Reza says he is not working off of Asa’s time table. He wants to plan for the baby. And finances are an important of that.
MJ is throwing a party to celebrate her upcoming wedding and celebrate with her friends and family. Shervin shows up in a biker vest on a motorcycle with Golnesa on the back. Both of them look like they are going to a biker bar. After a glass of wine, GG decides to toss her wedding band in the pool. Because GG.
Just before Mike’s call time for the party, everyone talks about how short his fuse is since he just broke up with Morgan. He brings the girls flowers and the boys power bars and gives some sort of odd speech about being supportive of him during his breakup. Then he gives Reza a kitten. Everyone cries. Oh it seems Reza’s cat died and now he has a new one.
GG and Nema do their awkward foreplay routine. This leads to whole montage of the Shalom situation. Because we haven’t shown that enough. I just don’t see GG being serious with the Persian John Boy Walton.
MJ and her mother go to a flower wholesaler and I am so wishing I was there. I am not a fan of “flower walls.” I hope MJ is not serious about having one. Meanwhile, Vida is not a fan of any of the flowers that MJ likes.
Shervin takes Golnesa to the divorce attorney. Again. Then we talk about her ring obsession. AGAIN.
Next time, the wedding day looms and we have the rehearsal dinner. Reza tries to sell shampoo.
Are they going to keep this stupid GG and Nema storyline going all season?? Either hookup or move on. I thought Shervin was going to get less screen time because he won’t share his life/ how he funds his lifestyle. He has both a Mercedes G wagon and sedan plus a very expensive sports car. What does he do for a living? I could not believe MJ ‘s prenup, I hope you are right that it’s just a dumb storyline. MJ’s my money is mine and yours is mine too is insane!! No rational person would sign that. It was good to see Asap and her caftan store is beautiful. I don’t think Reza really wants kids, not any time soon anyhow.
I thought I read somewhere (a couple of years ago) that Shervin owned nightclubs or bars in the Pacific Northwest (Seattle or Portland). I may have that completely wrong though because I don’t follow Shahs of Sunset. I think I only googled Shervin because I thought he was hot, lol.
Just looked again and Shervin does indeed own or is a partner in several Seattle businesses. Bravo has an article stating that he owns a restaurant (Vine & Spoon), cocktail bar (Alchemy) and nightclub (Aston Manor). So he doesn’t seem to be completely hiding his source of income. Maybe he just doesn’t want the show to negatively affect his businesses.
WHAT??? I live in West Seattle and Alchemy and Vine & Spoon are in my neighborhood and Aston Manor is right nearby. So funny they’re connected to Shervin. Have to say Alchemy and V&S are really upscale – a rarity in west Seattle – and very good food/drinks/ambience, although Aston Manor is a little on the cheesier side. Learn something knew every day.
I’m not sure we learned anything today. We read something on the Internet written by someone that cannot even process the Commenting Rules.
I guess I didn’t consider Bravo to be a competing blog. I also didn’t tell anyone to “google this set of words”. Other information wasn’t found on any competing blogs. It was from interviews or articles from local Seattle news sources. I don’t even read any other reality TV blogs.
I thought it was interesting information and pertinent to the comment I was responding to. I didn’t realize I was breaking any rules. My sincere apologies.
The rule is to talk about it there. Because I have no idea where people get the information they get elsewhere and I don’t have time to track it down. That’s wny I ask for people to EMAIL me things of interest they have read at reputable sources. I’m pretty sure it didn’t come from Bravo.

Also, I’m not in the best headspace lately.
Or as Shannon Beador would scream I HAVE LOT ON MY PLATE! 🙂 Which is no different than what we all have on our plates lately. I’m trying to get it together. 🙂
Tamara, I emailed you some links. 🙂
Also a headphone line, Munitio and a deli/speakeasy By the Pound Deli. He seems to be a busy and legitimate businessman.
And suddenly, he’s even sexier. 🙂
Nema and his sister don’t interest me. I’m glad we got to see Asa, though.
hehehe…Persian John Boy Walton! ?
I was glad that Nema stood up for Adam on WWHL when he was on last week with Mike, who insinuated that Reza makes all the money and Adam is just like a freeloader in that relationship. Adam has a normal job like we do—not making hundreds of thousands like Reza. There’s no shame to be had in that. Shame on Mike for alluding to that
It would be really funny if the Persian John Boy has a bigger dool than Mike!
Realtors total dollar sales each year is public knowledge.
Shervin sounds like he went in as a investor and silent partner. Anyone with cash can invest like this.
In other words, he has family money that has been invested.
I wish everyone would get on the GG+Nema train with me. No he isn’t her usual type but his type is good for GG. All of these long lasting relationships I see have one slightly wild, maybe a little flamboyant, and one stable calm anchoring type person.
I think they would actually make it. I think Golnesa is ready to calm down just a bit & Nema would treat her like a queen.
I’m with you on the GG + Nema train. He gets better looking with every episode and I love that he seems like a nice guy. I hope they finally give her a good edit this season & not the crazy one she’s had all along.
GG is probably the craziest one of them all. I love her, but I don’t think Nema is the one. GG needs some counseling. Like we all do. She used to see a counselor but she stopped, like we all do. lol.
Definitely fun but nutty. How she’s gotten her father to pay for her life style is beyond me .
I’ve watched this show since the beginning, but sadly I feel that this needs to be it’s last season… I’m just not excited to watch a lot of fake-ness and boring people.
I actually quit watching when I couldn’t take Asa anymore. Something about her just bugged the hell out of me. Now I’m back and enjoying the show again, well except for Mike. He’s just so dirty looking. Not dirty sexy like Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean, just dirty…
