That Burning Man line of clothing woman/Gabby accomplished what the producers wanted her to accomplish. There was so much conflict going on at that dinner table. (I have never heard of someone paying for a hotel room as the venue for a celebratory dinner.) I suspect that they edited so much. Michelle feeling territorial with regard to Jesse hanging out with Gabby but also emotionally checked out of the marriage. Michelle poking Jesse for being too serious. Again and again. Michelle wondering where her husband went. Danny raising his hand to speak, as if he was in first grade. Nia struggling to convince him to not weigh in. Zack needing to stifle Kristen. Kristen and Luke arguing over whether or not she had ever called him “a douche.” They pixelated Michelle’s areola. They should pixelate Brittany’s décolletage.

Unprecedented? No one bullied/excluded new girl Ally. Everyone welcomed her into the group. She was on WWHL, on her own, in the “best chair,” without James propping her up. She babbles on with her hippy-dippy astrology, and no one disrespects this the way Stassi scoffed at Rachquel’s Puppy Shower. She’s stealth with the singing pursuits. She may have targeted James at one of his gigs a couple years ago, but the relationship seems to have evolved into something real. On WWHL, she defended James’s loyalty to Hippie vs. loyalty to her. She insisted that James often prioritizes her over everyone.

Lala imitating Sandoval sounded like Kramer after Novocain.

I predict that she’ll attempt to flirt with Summer’s boyfriends. Especially if Brock divorces her.

I am shocked that they gave Jax and Brittany their own show. I always thought their relationship and their scenes on VPR were the most boring. I used to think her accent was cute, but she’s really leaning into it these days. It sounds like she’s doing a parody of herself. I think because of Scandoval, Jax and Brittany’s podcast saw a lot of action? I dunno. I am also surprised that he agreed to have a child with her.

Ben said someone reviewed SUR. I think the host seated that person and a friend at a table. There were two glasses filled with water and some ice. They each drank some water. A waiter came over and told them that those two glasses were there from the two guests who had dined at that table earlier.

Hahaha!!

Apparently a lot of Vanderpump individuals pay the same publicist.

For the sake of arguing, would LVP want us to know what Jax said about her on a podcast? I read a lot of podcast recaps, but I have no desire to read one that involves Jax. So it was news to me that Jax said that she was essentially a lamp.

So play makeup means there are no toxic ingredients or ingredients that would irritate a very young child’s skin, I think, after googling. But is the message still: You need products to make you more attractive. Your appearance is extremely important. I am sure that Summer has watched Scheana’s makeup routine many times. Will nail salons acquiesce when Scheana tells them to give Summer coffin nails at age five?

What do we think was coursing through Jax’s veins when he impregnated Brittany?

Schwartz’s tattoo stencil looked like he leaned against something.

The producers plane-shamed James FOUR times in this episode.

It seemed to me that Jax was hounding both James and Guillermo about hosting a brunch. Guillermo tried to justify defying LVP by pointing out that the number of covers was impressive, and that they should be thrilled with how much money it was bringing in. We know, for LVP, it’s all about her money. Even when her choices traumatize her staff. But when it comes to her ego, it’s an entirely different situation.

Honestly. And I don’t think he’s the only one. There are at least one or two other cast members who mispronounce it. Ronnie also mispronounces it; he is aware, but it’s become a habit now. And when it has to do with Ronnie F- - -ing Karam, I want to say, “Maybe Ariana is mispronouncing it.”

What is Scheana claiming? If Sandoval could cheat on Ariana with Rachquel, this destroyed her trust in her loved ones. She now worries that Brock would cheat on her with Lala? That seems like a stretch to me.

I think James has every right to want to stay with Hipster. That dog HAS been through a lot. I don’t understand why they were badgering him. Ally should not complain about attending the wedding without James.

Early in the season, I didn’t like seeing them using brushes to apply powder to Summer’s face, but mascara?!? She’s 2.3 years old. (She was born the last week of April 2021.) How long before Scheana starts insisting that they only film and photograph Summer from her “good side.”

I don’t want to do anything with my boyfriend that involves the word “drainage.”

Please. No more Good as Gold. Please.

While things heat up romantically between two staff members, another employee begins to isolate themselves; when sparks fly at a festive dinner in town, ugly truths are revealed, making everyone question their relationships in the chateau.

Ronnie and Ben were considering this ☝️possibility also. I only watched the episode once. But didn’t Danny, after Nia got home and walked by him, eating something, say, “Did you make me something to eat, too?” Then Nia simply tells him, “No.” So Danny is either entitled and insensitive, or the two of them share a good sense of humor. I am not sure, because “Three under two” got old pretty quickly. I wasn’t thrilled to hear him say, while Nia was crying and trying to explain how she was feeling, “There’s nothing to be ashamed of.” (Or something along those lines.)

I think in the After Show, Ariana claimed that Sandoval was saying, “You owe $X for the electric bill.” But he wouldn’t produce any invoices or bills. She told him, “I will pay it when you show me the bill.” I think she even may have said that she realized he had overcharged her for something. But they didn’t show her denying how many months she was not handing over money to him.

I am looking forward to this.

I would love to learn that he broke up with her. Although, that’d be painful for Bryn.
