We pick up this week’s RHOSLC Recap at Mary’s luncheon where things are about to go from bad to worse. Jen tells the table she is about to say what everyone else is thinking but won’t say. Mary says she would say half the stuff that Jen says. And these two start bickering back and forth over who would say what. Mary says something innocuous and winks and Jen tells her not to wink. Then Mary says that nobody at the table would say the things you’ve said. She ends it with a wide-eyed expression. Jen tells her not to open her eyes like that. Is Jen in charge of Mary’s eyeballs now? WTF? Jen is a nutbar. She starts LOUD talking about how they were “brought up fucking differently.”
Only Jen Could Manage To Make Mary Look Good
We can get back to Mary’s issues later. But, right now this is all Jen showing her ass at a very public luncheon. Jen call’s Mary ghetto. Mary tells Jen “bye” and asks her to leave. Heather goes chasing after Jen to check on her. Oh, Heather. Noe. Jen his a horrible creature. Holy shit! Heather drags Jen back in starts trying to take charge of the luncheon. Who does that? I don’t care whose luncheon it is. Jen’s ass was dismissed. Don’t drag her back in. Now, Jen is trying to play the victim.

Then, Mary calls Heather two-faced. She’s not wrong. Then Mary says she doesn’t need hoodlums around here in reference to Jen. Jen sees that hoodlum and raised it with her racist card that she plays on Mary. Now before I talk about what happens next, I should point out that Mary and Jen have been fighting this entire series. So what is Jen talking about when she says, ” A few months ago, I invite Mary to my house and she makes this weird comment a oh if I go to a 7-11 (they still have those?) and I see black people, I go to another 7-11.” Mary is like, AND? And then Jen makes her SECOND dramatic exit from the luncheon. Annnnnd SCENE!
I’m still mad at Heather from the luncheon. Is she going to be Jen’s sidekick all season? She is making breakfast for her kids and Ashley’s boyfriend. The whole family wants to skip church the next day. The girls don’t want to go back at all because everyone is so judgy.
The Husbands All Need To Be Airlifted Out By A Rescue Team
Meanwhile, Meredith argues with her husband Seth about where they want to live. He works between Canton, Ohio and Chicago. When the “ski season” cough filming season cough is over he wants her to come back to Ohio. And she doesn’t want to. She’s just not that into him.
If you are in the kitchen and you want your maid to fetch your breakfast tray, where was your breakfast tray? The scenes are just so weird. Mary tells Peepaw that “Jen keeps picking on her.” She is talking from a place of disappointment. Mary cries about being called a grandfather fucker again. But, um… gurlll…

Meanwhile, Jen talks to he husband who lives in her phone about a luncheon a day or two before. Jen is dressed like she is going to a wedding. It’s Saturday morning. Surely she has talked with her husband prior to this dramatic scene. She tells him that the fancy luncheon with friends and fancy presents and staff fawning all over her was, “one of the most horrible experiences in her life.” This girl needs to actually get a life. Her husband must be used to this. He’s being very supportive. Before he goes back to his roadie girlfriend.
Whitney’s dad goes to Sober Living. Lisa’s 8 year old has a bowling party. Meredith tells her husband, who is heading back to work up north they need more time apart. I think Meredith has a new man already. Her husband sees the writing on the wall. This didn’t need to be on camera. The randomly we have to hear why Mary is fucking Peepaw. Again. Mary has been to the Candiace Dillard School Of Fake Crying. Clearly, she hasn’t been to the folded napkin seminar yet.
This feels all too familiar. Cancergate, puppygate, hospitalgate. You’d think production would want a fresh slate with actual rich, adult women with class and manners. I vaguely remember one incident (Shannon and Emily?) were someone was hurt, the other apologized, they accepted and everything was good. I’m not sure I’m in for the whole season at this rate.
PS -I’m still stuck on the correlation of beta fish, personalized journals and LV EarPods at the Met Gala.
Hope you’re feeling better TT.
I really wish they’d use subtitles every time Mary’s on camera because I don’t understand a word she says.
Ha! Agreed.
I still don’t know how I feel about this series. It’s very different and i have not fully decided if I’m on board or not. I really like Heather Gay, so far she seems like the only one who’s being halfway normal? She seems self aware and actually has some pretty funny lines here and there. Overall though.. Am I the only one still not buying into this series being as great as it’s been hyped to be??
Nope. Come sit by me jjam 🙂
I always love your recaps but the Candiace Dillard school of fake crying sent me over the edge!
I’m trying hard to like this series but Jen is giving me LeeAnne Locken vibes and that turned me off of Dallas. If she is going to be mean, she should at least be entertaining about it.
Madam, Jen is NO LEEANNE LOCKEN! 🙂
I’m really trying to get into this series but it’s been a struggle. No one is interesting enough for me to care. The “costumes” and plastic surgery and terrible wigs are just awful – not even in a fun way. Not sure how much longer I can hang in there.
I did a double take when I saw Lala and Katie Maloney on the preview for next week’s epi.
I haven’t decided if I like this show or not. I mainly watch it cuz pandemic life is monotonous.
I just took Lala and Katie out of the tags for these posts! lol I couldn’t remember why I put them there in the first place. Now I’ll go add them back. Maybe these two can be on RHOSLC next season since they are unemployed, lol.
i really keep trying to give this show a chance. but its just a hot mess. mary’s eyes are always popping out of her head and she has some sort of God complex…..Jen….well its obvious shes gone through some shit in her life and has to bully people and is living off of her “phone husband”…are these two even still married??
I really really like Whitney. Meredith isnt THE WORST but just not sure how i feel about her…When Lisa talks about all of her tequila companies i want to mute the tv. the sound of her voice annoys me.
i have to say….i wish these shows would go back to how they were when they first came out where there is a group of ACTUAL friends who like each other. instead of casting random people who may possibly know each other and see who will be the villan and who will be the peacemaker etc. EARLY days of RHOC and RHONJ and even a bit of beverly hills the girls were YOUNG and FUN and liked each other. I dont imagine many of these ladies (except meredith and lisa) probably hangout outside of filming. i know heather and jen see each other because of heathers business….but i just wish these shows would revamp and go back to how they used to be.
Ramona Singer walked (the red carpet with her eyes bulging), so Mary could run (her mouth with eyes bulging)
Someone is going to have to dye their hair red. It’s the only way I’ll be able to tell these women apart.
The one with big frozen, crooked lips is Meredith. The other one with normal lips is Lisa.
Yeah… why are her lips crooked? In flashback pics she looked nothing like she does now.
I’ll try to remember to check the lips next week. One of them has…. bent/wavey hair but I can never be sure which one.
This show screams TRYING TOOOO HARD!!! To me. This aside, Jen and Mary have to be the absolute worst dressed, worst presented (makeup wise) housewives that have ever existed.
Beyond this, I can’t get past the fact that Mary married her Grandpa. And is pillaging from her congregant to live such an extravagant lifestyle. Disturbing.
I don’t think I can watch another episode.
Thanks for the recap TT.
I am ? confused.
It seems so disjointed I don’t know if it’s me or ?
Maybe I am just not that into it.
Why can’t the blond fix her dress when they flash back to her?
Do we have to look at her whole boob?
Thank you for recapping TT. I am trying to get into this but it seems too contrived for me. Even Meredith’s son Brooks … sure he took a semester off to support his mom … more like he wanted camera time and to be the “Greek chorus”. Oh and become the next greatest (and youngest) fashion designer. No wonder he has a problem with Jen … she steals his thunder. Mary just disgusts me. Besides the whole grandpa thing and living large off of her congregation, she’s a show off. Yes, she did an expensive luncheon and had great gifts but the way she treated the staff was Ramona-sequel and disgusting. Jen is a train wreck. Lisa is there. I really like Heather and Whitney. They seem, to me, to be what the franchise used to be about. I’ll stick with it and always read your recaps! I love this place!!
Thanks Pauline. Brooks is my favorite on the show. He is speaking for me most of the time. And his mom is kind of normal.
The one that owns the tequila company reminds
of a broke down Nikki Bella..
It seems to me that Bravo is so desperate that they are truly not vetting these women. Case in point: Jen acts like a total nutjob. Screaming at parties and telling Meredith ( I think that’s her name) she can’t be friends with Mary. Is she for real? Mary: Her eyes ? bugging out everytime Jen addresses her because she hates her. She calls herself a minister! OMG ? Another housewife saying she doesn’t remember the other one when she clearly went to the same college! Heck I can’t get there names straight but according to many so can’t they! LMAO On WWHL many stated that they could not get the names straight but I believe it’s because they can’t get their heads into it. This show is pretty weird ?! No shade, just my opinion ?!
Peace ?
I feel like Jen is playing a role of what she thinks is a good reality tv star and it’s definitely not a good look
