This.

Bethenny has stated over and over again that Bryn doesn't see things on the internet. If she hasn't already seen them, she will soon. She will see how her mother has no qualms about using her as a means to feed her never-ending quest for attention (esp. on social media). Makes me wonder how Bryn's teenage years are going to go.

What an awful piece of work she is.  Bryn's father is Jason Hoppy. Period, full stop. Frankel does not get to convert Dennis into Bryn's secretly engaged Daddy so Frankel can milk sympathy from strangers on instagram.  Jesus. 

And Shields actual children  (the ones he had with his wife & parented for 20+ years) are experiencing their first Father's Day without their father - god forbid this callous cow leave it alone just this fucking once. 

God forbid she not make it about me me me me me ME.  

Ho-lee shit.

She can't even let Dennis's children have Father's Day? She has to drag herself and Bryn into it? She's got some fucking nerve.

Bryn has a father. It wasn't Dennis. They weren't married, weren't even together at the time of his death.

Why couldn't she be the bigger person for once in her goddamned life and maybe wish Jason a happy Father's Day?

It is also entirely possible her kids were just enjoying a nice summer day at the beach and the person we have seen become unglued became unglued.

Kids are loud. Especially when they are playing in a public place. BetheME should've shut a fucking window if she was so concerned with Bryn's nap. I suppose Sunny should be grateful that her children didn't commit the heinous sin of standing in front of her at a concert. B has good aim with a drink.

I regret to inform you that Sonja Sexy J Tremont Morgan of the upstate Morgans has implants* ...and, allegedly, so does Lu.

If Lu has implants, she needs to share the name of her surgeon. They look natural and not too big for her frame a la Moaner and Bethenny.

Here’s what makes sense to me: Bravo &/or Andy have snoops watching Luann.  B may or may not be in on this. But at some point B is either told, or chooses, to insert herself into the situation. Thus she witnesses the dangerous and insane behaviors, stalking (it is a form of stalking, IMO) her in the driveway, etc. 

Your theory hearkens back to when somebody *coughproductioncough* just happened to snap pictures of Tom catting around at The Regency and sent them to Bethenny. Complete with timeline.

There is some truly humiliating shit happening off-camera and it's being used by Bethenny against Luann for storyline purposes.

Exactly.  I certainly don't blame her for being upset if she truly did all that for Lu and feels that Lu is ungrateful.  However, there's a part of me that feels like she's kept score for this exact opportunity.  And when Lu didn't give her the reaction she was after, she decided to spill all of the embarrassing things.  Lu remaining calm and unapologetic results in Beth and her breathless, going to have a heart attack delivery.

I think Beth has disliked Luann for years.

She can put it aside and play nice when it suits her purposes, but she just barely tolerates her.

I also believe that she did all those things for Lu both to keep score and to feed her messiah complex.

That's true, but if they don't do it, you certainly don't lose your cookies like BetheME.  

There's a saying in AA that "resentment is the number one offender."  I mean BetheME probably did have a legitimate beef with Luann, but BetheME was yelling, screaming, standing up, acting like a fucking nutcase.  People in the restaurant were looking at her like, "WTF is wrong with this chick?"  Meanwhile Luann sat there, cool as a cucumber, while BetheME looked like she needed to be put in a strait jacket.

Whatever point Bethenny was trying to make went straight out the window when she grabbed the martini glass, shoved it at Luann's face, and dropped her voice into growling range. I'd have been hard pressed to not slap it out of her hand.

I agree with this 100%.  My opinion on this is that Bethenny grew up in a very volatile household.  I'm sure there were plenty of knock-down, drag out fights in her childhood, and that is the only thing she knows.  One person gets mad, yells and screams...the other person gets mad, rants and raves and maybe throws something.  Then, they move on.  Not the healthiest way to resolve differences, and not the healthiest way to grow up.

Bethenny, imo, does not know how to deal with calm when she gets angry because to her, the other person doesn't care enough to fight back, and given the toxic way she learned about relationships, she thinks that you need to fight back to basically prove you care. 

I also get the feeling that Jason also may have been the same way with her when she was angry about something, so it's another trigger for her.

It really seems like nothing else enrages Bethenny quite like someone else staying calm while they're arguing with her. It throws her off balance and she just starts getting louder and talks faster.

Speaking of characters doing awful things that no one finds out about, Regina from Once Upon a Time is generally one of the most detestable characters on television that we are supposed to root for and sympathize with, but one of the most frustrating things she got away with was the rape and murder of Graham AKA the Huntsman. In the fairytale world, she tried to force him to kill her step daughter Snow White (because Snow White story) and when he instead helped her get away, she ripped his heart out, which she used to control him, and its very heavily implied that she went on to use her power to rape him several times before she enacted the dark curse and dragged them all to Maine (...dont even ask) where she AGAIN had control of him, and re-wrote his personality so that they were sleeping together, again, against his will. Then when main character Emma, who has a bit of thing going on with him, starts to piece things together, he starts to get his real memories back, but before he can tell Emma, she crushes his heart and he died. Emma at the time thought it was a heart attack, but later on she finds out who Regina is and what she is capable of, but...she never puts two and two together. Regina soon becomes the goodest good guy who has ever been good and the shows resident main hero and Mary Sue who all the heroes and former victims worship and is considered totally forgiven and an amazing hero, BUT she never tells anyone what happened to Graham. She and Emma supposedly become besties and she is so sorry and is so awesome and good now, but she never bothers to tell her supposed friends what she did to the man who saved Snows life TWICE and who Emma was starting to fall for. It just never comes up again, and its so awful, and while its probably not the worst thing Regina is (she just destroyed SO many villages) its by far the most frustrating.

I will never not be salty about Regina getting away scot-free with what she did to Graham AND that absolutely no mention of him was made in the Underworld. They could show Regina magically healing a horse but couldn't throw us a bone and show Graham's tombstone at least?

I think Sonja does have a point when she says that they keep going after men that she has dated or been with.  She's not wrong that they seem to have no boundaries there.

She's also a hypocrite. She banged the pirate the night after Lu did, dated one of Kelly's exes, and rekindled things with Harry when he was her (at that time) dear friend Aviva's ex-husband. She also claimed to have slept with Carole's ex when they were both in LA.

Also, IIRC, Lu didn't know that Sonja and Tom had been a thing when Dorinda introduced them. None of them knew until Sonja started wailing about Lu stealing Tom away from her.

She needs to borrow Aviva's prosthetic if she wants a leg to stand on there.

This is one of the things that baffles me about Bethenny.  When people are arguing, sometimes they lose their cool and start yelling. With Bethenny it never seems like she's pushed to her breaking point and then starts yelling; it seems like yelling is the strategy that she goes in with and I don't understand how she doesn't realize that the person who's yelling (especially when the other person keeps their cool) just ends up looking like the person who's crazy.  She's setting herself up to look like a fool when she goes from 0 to 100 like that.

I think that Beth goes into any and all personal arguments with the mindset of "Whoever yells the loudest/has the highest word count wins."

Well, all I can say is good for you.  I have had kids and dogs.  Stuff happens.  You can tell your kids not to use the yard for bathroom purposes and they follow that rule 99% of the time but life ain't perfect all the time. 

Kids also have accidents.  Pets also have accidents.

I just don't see it as 'that' big of a deal.  It could be way worse. 

My dogs and kids have both done some business in the yard. Hell, one time the dog lifted his leg and peed on my oldest daughter when they were outside. By the time I realized what he was doing, it was all over except for her walking up to me and saying "He...he peed on me!" in the most incredulous tone of voice I've ever heard.

Did you see the clip for next weeks episode on the Bravo website? It shows the lunch that PO and Dorito has with Lisa and Ken.

When Lisa asks if they believe her when she swears that she didn’t give the story to Radar Dorito says she doesn’t believe her. Dorito was staring down at the table like she was reading something. Ken stands up and says “If that’s the case there is no friendship here” and walks away. Dorito gives here patented bug eyed shocked face that she gets every episode. That’s the nub of the matter.

You see these other women think this is the normal housewives bullshit. They don’t understand why Lisa won’t take her beating and beg for their forgiveness. Lisa has had enough of this nonsense and is walking away. They are not her friends. They are not even Hollywood Reality Show friends. It’s over.

It never fails to astonish me how these women rip apart everything Lisa does and then turn around and act oh-so-hurt when she doesn't want to be around them.

Dorit's shocked face is reminiscent of a blow up doll and seeing it every episode is making my eye twitch.

Maybe they're doing that Common Core kind of math, where 3+3=6, but it's not that simple.  You have to write a half-page explanation of how you arrived at that answer.  I've heard parents talk about it.  Some of it involves diagrams and other convoluted ways to show your work.   An engineer once told me that even he couldn't help his kid with math anymore.  Sure, he knew the answer, but he didn't know WTF they wanted them to do to explain how they got the answer!!  I think that learning certain things by rote went out the window!  

She really seems into her money these days!  Not that I begrudge her that, but she does talk about material things an awful lot. 

Common Core math can bite me! Math has never been a particular strength of mine, but I used to feel confident in the basics...until I had to help my daughter with her math homework. I was hopelessly confused on how she was supposed to do it. There was apparently a turtle involved somehow...I don't fuckin' know.

Anyway, when I was cleaning out her backpack that weekend, I found that math assignment. On the back, she had written "My mom couldn't figure out how to do it."

I think that she ordinarily would be fighting back, especially since it has to do with something she truly cares about. Dorit fucked up and in any other season Lisa would have gone after her with both barrels.

This season, though, she is clearly off balance. Her brother's death rocked her world and her head just isn't in the game.

My hope is that she comes to the reunion and lets them all have it.

'cause that's what she said.

How far can the goalposts be moved to make Lisa the bad guy in this case?

Can I also claim that Teddi is a narcissistic mother because her son didn't want her to leave? Obviously she has groomed him to panic if she is away for even a moment.
