RHONY Recap: Luann Land

May 22, 2019 by tamaratattles 42 Comments

RHONY RecapWe are back in upstate New York at Luann’s roundhouse on the Hudson for tonight’s RHONY Recap. We’re mid-fight between Luann and Bethenny over Luann’s lack of appreciation for Bethenny’s support. Luann has reverted to season one Luann this season. It’s not attractive. Luann doesn’t seem to remember who was at her Halloween cabaret. I get the feeling she was in her dressing room having a nip or ten of liquid courage.

Then Bethenny bring up all the trash talking Luann was doing about her before she arrived in the Berkshires. Luann is all about herself. Bethenny didn’t ask for the best room in the house and her on again off again boyfriend that she was kind not really engaged to, died. Luann continues on talking about herself without missing a beat. Bethenny feels she is owed an apology. Luann says she is sorry she missed her show. WTF, Lu? Bethenny gets a call from her boyfriend and takes it in the other room. Cameras follow.

RHONY Recap Lu
Why is Lu so flushed and sweaty?

What About Me?

Dorinda goes to check on Bethenny. Luann is not far behind. When I was pulling photos for this scene, I was struck by Luann’s flushed sweaty face. Is that from drinking or not drinking?  It’s an insane conversation. Luann seems to think she has been a friend to Bethenny. She has not. She’s trashed Bethenny after she has helped her so much. Luann gives a half-hearted apology. The she launches into how rough things have been for her. Again, Dennis died. Did she do anything nice for Bethenny? They hug it out. Even though the apology sucks.

RHONY RecapRamona Takes The Cake

Dorinda, Bethenny and Tinsley are staying in a hotel. Bethenny’s new driver/bodyguard has apparently been sitting in the driveway for this entire ordeal. I miss the old driver. I think Bethenny probably let him go when she felt she needed more protection. I’m sure he got a fabulous payout. She was very close with him. These three love their quaint hotel. Then Ramona arrives. She’s late to the brawl because she was at a birthday party for herself. She brought the girls leftovers.

Barbara who was very quiet during all of the drama is still in the house with Luann. Now that half the ladies are gone, she supporting Luann. Don’t enable her Barbara. I do love Barbara. They both think Sonja stirred the pot. So, I must have missed that part.

Everyone gets ready to meet up for dinner. Why did Bethenny and Tinsley put on pajamas when they got to their rooms only to dress for dinner? Sonja is already totally wasted in the car with Luann and Barbara.

RHONY Recap Dorinda
I want Dorinda’s grey sweater and this white one, moth-eaten cashmere and all.

Terrapin

It seems that the restaurant the ladies are going to is the restaurant where Ramona hosted a funeral dinner when her mom died.  This is basically Ramona’s hometown where she grew up. Oh lord. If I stick around my family functions long enough, there is always some sort of drunken crying thing happening about dead family members. I am not excited by this at all. Ramona freaks out that they are sitting at the same table she sat at for the funeral dinner. Ramona was specifically disinherited from her father’s will. Is Tinsley still in her PJs ala Nene Leakes?

Meanwhile, drunk Sonja (and Lu and Barb) are still in route. Everyone is kind of pissy with Ramona for not being invited to her birthday event. Finally these three arrive. Sonja is drunk with wild messy hair. She looks insane, literally and figuratively.

The four ladies staying at the hotel do not want to go to a cabaret twenty minutes away to hear an 80 year old woman warble with a keyboard. So, Luann is irritated. It’s on the call sheet! Yes, it is but they are all exhausted and just want to hang with Lu where they are and then go to bed.

Wait That Wasn’t Terrapin?

What was the whole thing about this was our family table at the restaurant? Because Ramona and the others staying in the hotel are now in an empty restaurant across the street where Ramona is having a meltdown and talking about all the abuse in their family. GENTLE REMINDER: This topic is a trigger for me so please don’t share personal stories about your childhood traumas in comments. I’m BEGGING YOU. I’m not recapping this portion. Sorry.

RHONY RecapSo um, meanwhile at the cabaret, show, Tinsley (who is actually a hotel girl) would love to be with her real group. Maybe not Tinsley. It’s hell over there too. I’d take the cabaret lady from Cuba over swapping abuse stories any day. Even if it means having to suffer through the old lady, drunk off her ass Sonja and Luann singing a weird version of Money Can’t Buy You Class. 

Hung over Bethenny

The Morning After

Tinsley is the only one who is not either still drunk or hungover. Tinsley tells the other hotel girls what a shit show she witnessed the night before. She is so over cabaret.

Meanwhile at Lu’s the implication is that Barbara hooked up with a guy with a ton of hair. She does seem very perky this morning. You go, Barbara!

The hotel crew arrives for lunch. Bethenny is hungover in sunglasses and a beanie. Barbara has to dip out because she has a company to run. Luann loves Ramona’s candlesticks gifts.

Before we can end this episode we need one more big fight. The girls who rode with Bethenny have to go. Ramona who was pretty much a full day late arriving to this bizarre trip now wants to call out people for leaving so soon.

Dorinda brings up the Angel Ball stuff again. She sat at table by herself because Ramona dumped her. Somehow Sonja is called a pot stirrer again. By Luann and Dorinda.

Eventually Ramona the apologizer, apologizes.

Next week, it’s almost Christmas. Some people are concerned that Sonja may be popping pills. MAY BE? Um hello!  Then they go to Miami for Art Basel. Two trip episodes back to back? Oh and Ramona and Harry Dubin made out. Sonja gets SUPER WASTED.

    Let’s see: Sonja was a hot ass mess, as usual. Luann was reverting to “The Countess”, as usual. Ramona was rude as fuck, as usual.

    Yep, this is RHONY… And I still can’t get enough of this crazy show.

      Bethenny and Luann went to Art Basel together in a previous season to see Victoria’s work, so possibly the talk she’s referring to is an older one?

        Yes I remember that! It is very possible-
        The reason I think this is all mixed up out of order is that the Halloween decor at Blue Stone Manor in the first few episodes and then the Halloween party just the last episode. It seems like a lot of October. Art Basel is in December in Miami–

    I missed the first 15 minutes. While I enjoy B’s biting wit when she is in a fight and on a roll – it sounds like B did the sensible thing tonight in just accepting the half assed apology. Not only has Luann not acknowledged the death of Dennis, but that because of that, how Jason was maybe going for full custody! I wouldn’t wish that shit on my worst enemy!

    I will say I got some goosebumps when B pointed out the Terrapin/Turtle thing and that it was connected to Ramona’s mother (because of course Ramona didn’t know that). I believe in signs like that though. I also wondered about you. Totally fine that you didn’t recap. If people don’t find it triggering they can watch it for themselves. I know B will take the info and process – but Ramona will forget in a week and go back to being a bitch.

      My grandmother made spoon biscuits. Which means instead of rolling them out she just dropped spoonfuls pm the baking sheet. She called them terrapins. So I thought about her from the moment I saw the name of the restaurant. That’s why I knew terrapin means turtle. That said I’m not surprised Ramona or most people didn’t know.

    The restaurant where they ate dinner was sort of across the street from the Terrapin restaurant. I don’t remember the name of it. Ramona was remembering having family dinners at the same 6-person table where they were having dinner now. After dinner, they went across the street to the Terrapin, which was where Ramona had hosted the luncheon after her mother’s funeral.

    Luann was absolutely unbelievable during the whole conversation/disagreement with Bethenny. Even when they were all telling her she was thinking only of herself, all she could say was, “But *I* . . . .” And I was shocked to hear her say she didn’t realize any of them had stayed to hear her sing! She had been talking to Dorinda afterward—did she not remember that? And if she didn’t even remember the others being there, what did it matter that Bethenny had left?? Luann is awful.

    All through this episode, I was struck by how many times Tinsley was behaving appropriately and how uncomfortable she looked at the behavior of the others. Tinsley, you’re the one with class, not Luann.

    And Margarita’s “singing”???

    I’m broad enough in the beam to step in as the Hip Police, and I must issue a citation for Luanne’s assertion that Kingston is “hipper” than Rhinebeck. I’m about 25 miles south of Rhinebeck and go there often. It’s a great town. Very posh in its own way. Lots of rich people live there. Two weeks ago a doctor rescheduled my appointment for their Kingston office. I’d not been there before. Was a bit nervous finding it. Walked up the sidewalk to the building, which is smack in the middle of town, and the door was LOCKED. Called on my cell phone from outside, and the receptionist came out and let me in. “Sorry, yeah, we had to start locking the street door,” she tells me. “People were coming in off the street and stealing the paintings in the lobby and taking the light bulbs out of the lamps.” Kingston is not on the same planet as Rhinebeck. The Countess lied through her teeth. Book ’em, Dann-o.

      I’m sure it still has a ways to go, but this I think Luann was getting at all the attention Kingston is getting lately as the “creative capital of the Hudson Valley.” (I didn’t want to break rules by including any links, but that’s one headline.”) When I was there last fall, it seemed pretty happening.

    “I’m sorry you missed me perform.” WTF LuAnn!

    Most alcoholics, once they REALLY get sober look back at their drunken behavior and are appalled about it.

    But I have a feeling that this is Lu’s basic character, with or without chemistry.

    The irony of her singing “Money Can’t Buy You Class” is never lost on me.

    I hope sweet Tinsley finds a kind and decent man who wants children. Soon. Tick tick.

      @micmac Luanne is not back in jail. The judge reconsidered or whatever you call it when rich people are given leniency. They briefly had her in custody but then the judge reinstated her parole.

      I was just kinda thinking the opposite. I enjoyed seeing the Inn and different scenery. I think Luann’s house is cool. Not my style but the view is amazing. I think it’s funny she defends her little berg when all signs are pointing towards it’s “not all that.” I think the isolation is a bit scary considering her current troubles.

      Looking forward to Miami!
