Am I supposed to hate Fuentes for being mean to Max? Because her pointing out just how ridiculous he is made me LOL. Her rant about the lobby with the plaques and the poems was great. I don't know why, but I kind of loved Helen Maxing it up.

Many good points. An entire decade is definitely huge growing up. I'm sure Kyle pictured Kathy as an adult when she was five and Kathy was 15. At a certain point, 10 years isn't much though. I'm in my 30s, date men up to 10 years older, and have friends much older than that.
Growning up I always thought my uncle was such a loser and wondered why he couldn't get his shit together because he was living with his parents, working shit jobs, etc. He was a teenager 😆 I didn't do the math and realize that he's only 8 years older than me until I was like 40. I just always thought he was an adult. And I'm the smart one in my family...

More BS
Richards made a remark about all the attorneys etc at Tom's firm should return their bonuses etc. Erika snarks back, and he returns the volley.

My thought is that all or most of those expensive clothes she wears on the show are borrowed, you know wealthy people can borrow designer clothes, jewelry, Birkins, etc...and I think Erika had the panache and leverage to borrow a Chanel suit or the latest designer stuff, wear it on the show then send it back.
That is why when Erika showed up the the Kill Bill Chinese New Year she said that her dress was all she could find in her closet...no more borrowed clothes from high end retailers, she has to wear off the rack...Nordstrom's Rack for now on.
Then what did she spend $14M on?

I think she's doing it to hide weight gain. And no more mountains of expensive new clothing.
There are better ways to do that in 85 degree heat than some KMart sweatsuit from the 1980s.

Wow....not to jump on Erika's appearance in this article's photos, but what the ever loving hell with the non-descript, stretched out sweats? They look like she bought them from Walmart, in the Hanes aisle. I don't even look that sloppy when doing my heaviest house cleaning!!!
My really nasty side thought that maybe she is prepping for the latest in government-issued fashion worn in a minimum security women's faciliTy (with the pronounced "t" as Erika says it).
Erika looks horrible, overly large and completely opposite of the persona she tries to project most times on the show. I also wonder if she is intentionally going out in public like this, as I think she wore something very similar when caught shopping at TJ Maxx. Does she think dressing like this will garner some sympathy?
Well, if the pictures were taken on the 30th it was 85 degrees in LA, so the only reason to be wearing sweats was to make people feel sorry for you. It was a little bit cooler earlier that week, but like just not sweating your balls off hot -- I was still in short sleeves and sandals.
On 10/4/2021 at 2:41 PM, HunterHunted said:There's nothing even close to that in this article. Her attorney merely said that they've received settlement offers and that they're in the preliminary stages of considering them. That settlement offer could simply be "give us the $25 million and we won't try to liquidate your personal property and garnish your wages." And Erika considering it could be hearing the offer and answering with a big old nope. Nothing has changed, but this does serve as a reminder of what a fame hungry pos Ron Richards is. All of his constant mugging for the press has got to make this ordeal so much worse for the victims. It turns their pain into a footnote in this whole ordeal while 2 narcissists snipe at each on social media and in the press.
As someone that was a plaintiff in a scandalous/salacious lawsuit that was large and all over the press, I can kind of speak to this. When our case settled it was all over the news for a couple of days, it was covered internationally. There was no escaping it (at least in LA in terms of constant coverage). I couldn't watch TV, listen to the radio, go online, it was everywhere. Having it all over the media like that was really triggering and upsetting. I wasn't mentioned in anything directly, I'm 1 of hundreds of plaintiffs in the suit and 1 of thousands of victims, but just seeing and hearing about it nonstop was really traumatic -- and the settlement was good news for me. It must be even worse when all the press is about you getting screwed and is just a bunch of shady sniping.

That is one of the things that always bothers me on this show. These folks have enough money to walk away if they really want to. Seeing Bill and Mafee walk out made sense. They are not going to end up on the street begging given everything they have earned up until now. So few people have the option of just noping out when they feel like it.
I think there was actually a storyline where Dollar Bill was broke because of his polygamy. So I'm not sure he has fuck you money and can just walk away from the life.

The more I think about this episode, the more I think about how I would have done it differently.
What we could have had was a story where Hondo was still on the ranch but this time we see that he's already met Isabel and Delfina Reyes and has already started to bond with them (I mean, really, if he had been living at the ranch for months he should have met his neighbours at least a few times). Perhaps Isabel and Hondo have some sparks (the actress who played Isabel, Pilar Padilla, is Shemar Moore's age) and the burgeoning romance is the reason why Hondo gets to learn more about the Reyeses' issues.
This deep dive is how Isabel learns he's a former SWAT commander (something he's told no one else) and how Hondo eventually learns of about the overtures of Arthur Novak. Hondo begins to suspect that Novak's henchmen actually murdered Isabel's husband, but Hondo is reluctant to act on it (though it eats at him inside). Isabel, knowing his past, eventually prods him to look in to what happened to Mr. Reyes, causing Hondo to bow to his instincts and agree to investigate. Hondo recruits the young officer (who is perhaps Delfina's love interest) and the two of them investigate the murder of Mr. Reyes.
Which is how the shenanigans start.
Maybe it's not much different from the story we did get, but I think this is a bit more coherent than what we did get. Plus it gives the Reyeses (and perhaps the young officer) a bit more agency in their own story, which was what was badly needed.
Does it really give the Reyeses more agency? Or does it just make them love interests to the heroes?
I felt bad for the towns people having their businesses destroyed by fights and car chases.

I was wondering why Devon almost died when he’d only been in the casting room for a brief time, but the blind patient had been there before Devon and also overnight, but was in much better shape. I know Devon vented the room when he exited to get help, but that still means he nearly died from less of an encounter with the gas than the blind patient had.
I didn’t know anything about the Nic actress leaving the show, but it was obvious when she didn’t appear in the season premiere.
I don’t mind Sutton’s son being on the cast if he becomes a mentee to The Raptor. But his mother can leave the show anytime.
Devon is like half the size of the blind guy, so maybe that played a role? The blind guy also almost died though. They mentioned that they didn't think he was going to make it.

The fact that it has gotten to where I hate almost everyone on this show makes it hard to watch. I like Trey and maybe Darnell and I don't hate Felix. And of course Pretzel is the goodest boy.
My top dislikes are Murphy and the Keystone cops (especially Josh and his stupid vendetta). At this point I might only be watching to see if Josh gets a comeuppance for trying to use the PD for settling a personal score. I can't even remember if Murphy actually liked him or was only using him because this season has been endless, but he comes off like an incel.
Also Murphy's going to bang that guy to manipulate him into giving her a ride, but she couldn't even shower with the guy at the Canadian casino to not get shot?

I don't care about Max and Sharpe, but creating all this stupid drama just to have tension is stupid.
I don't like Iggy and I don't care for Bloom's girlfriend, but fuck all the residents. Fuck the bullies down in the ER and fuck the babies up in psych.
I actually like Floyd, but I don't give a shit about his relationship drama and whether his boss knows he's banging his wife, and I'm probably just going to be annoyed when it blows up in his face.

And once Devon was discovered and they realized it was a gas situation, why didn't they immediately send people to where they found him to see about the leak??? So that they can, I don't know, make sure the hospital is not in danger?
They found him in an elevator on the roof and the leak was in the basement. He had memory loss and could not remember where he had been. That's why Conrad and Kit were trying to retrace his steps and had to call a night nurse at home.

I don't know that it would have caused much of a drop in billables. A law firm especially the kind that works on class actions has a lot of people working behind the scenes that clients may never meet or work with regularly. However updates to clients may make mention of those other people or the work they have done. It's like an iceberg; 90% of it is below the surface. I doubt knowledge about Tom's condition would have caused much in the way of a decreased billable hours. Tom likely wasn't billing much or anything at all. He was a rainmaker.
Knowledge of Tom's condition may have caused the demise of the firm. Tom was the sole owner of Girardi-Keese. It doesn't sound like he did much succession planning. He also didn't do much in the way of cross-training, redundancy planning, or leadership development among the firm's employees. Even if Tom hadn't been a fucking criminal, the lack of planning for the future of the firm and his sole ownership would have sent the place into a tailspin. The firm would have been at the mercy of whoever managed to get that conservatorship. That's actually something insurmountable. The conservator could choose to close the firm or begin soliciting buyers. If the other attorneys wanted to buy Tom Girardi out, the conservator may not have to entertain that. Tom's obvious lack of succession planning coupled with his condition is the thing that could have destroyed the firm even if Tom hadn't been a crook.
The dementia is largely a strategy to impede criminal prosecution because the conservatorship renders Tom presumptively incompetent to stand trial.
In my anecdotal experience it is kind of the opposite and kind of the same. I am a plaintiff in a large coordinated settlement of hundreds of plaintiffs that settled out of court with an institution. We're kind of like a class action but each person has their own case and own lawyers, although many of us have the same lawyers -- the lawyer representing me is representing over 200 of the cases. The attorney I signed with is a rainmaker in these types of personal injury cases. He's on TV, in documentaries, on the radio, in print, etc. In theory he's the lawyer representing me, all official memos and court docs have his name on them, my retainer agreement is with him. I've never talked to the guy. There's a young lawyer at the firm that does all of the day to day with all of the plaintiffs in this particular case. She is my one point of contact with the firm. The guy with the name is lead counsel for the entire coordinated group of several hundred cases and has done most of the heavy lifting during the contentious mediation and of course is the one speaking at the press conferences. So one has to assume he's not doddering. If he wasn't the external touchpoint he could totally be out to lunch and I wouldn't know -- literally, the only time I've heard my attorney of record talking about my case is on the news. But it is only because I only interact with the behind the scenes folks that I wouldn't know. My legal bill is mid six-figures, so it's not like it is a pittance. I suppose if it was important to me to talk to the name or if I needed special handling I would get a phone call or a meeting. I only ever email about the case for the most part. I think I've talked to the lawyer I do talk to only twice on the phone, but there might have been another call or two I'm forgetting. However, had it gotten to where I had to be deposed or even gone to court, I have 100% faith the name would have been by my side during that and that's what I signed with him for, he's ferocious. I also wasn't counting on a global coordinated settlement situation when I filed my case, and the name is who I wanted negotiating on my behalf, it just worked out that he ended up negotiating on everyone's behalf.
There's also a class action against the same defendants that has about 18k class members. Most of the class members don't even know who the class attorneys are and have never spoken to anyone at all. So for that 100% you could cover up doddering.
I don't know if most of Tom's cases were classes or not. Class action lawyers are totally the worst. So probably they were 😆

The show has addressed Dennis' finances directly. I don't remember the exact deal but they talked about him having money from before. It was probably one of the episodes his ex-wife was in as I think she was urging him to take his share of their community property and finalize their divorce so she could move on.

1. I am guessing that since it's the janitor's closet, it's good ol' mustard gas (bleach and ammonia) - since that looked like it was burning Devon's throat.
2. Why didn't the blind guy READ THE BRAILLE ON THE SIGN BEFORE ENTERING THE JANITORS CLOSET? He wouldn't just reach for a doorknob! He even said earlier in the episode "I could get there myself, the elevator probably has braille!"
3. I sure hope they don't kill Nic - I remember reading that they said they "tried" to negotiate for guest spots, but that could be when they hadn't decided her fate. I realllly don't want Nic's friend to be a love interest - she's barely tolerable as is. She won't be tolerable with how they try to make her likable if she becomes a love interest.
Also, if I were giving a worst doctor award, Devon would get it easily for not leaving the room (or at least trying!) the second his throat started to burn from mystery gas.2. Was he kind of panicking at that point? They had shown a bit of a personality shift, so I think the gas was already getting to him just sitting there. But still it seems like reading the sign before going in doors at public places would be second nature to him.
3. Agreed. There's a hot EMT they could hook her up with. He's been in a few episodes and was in this one. Did Nic's dad die last season? I can't remember. I kind of hope he did because I don't want his annoying ass around more to help with the baby. Maybe Conrad's rich dad will hire a nanny. Although that's kind of sad if the baby's whole maternal family is wiped out. If they are doing guest spots maybe Nic can just be too incapacitated to work and always referred to as being home with occasional scenes here and there.
Agree re: Devon not GTFO of the closet instead of just futilely yelling for help into the void.
What is going on with this show that all the female leads are ditching out? It seems kind of sketchy that the women are all leaving.

Did Bell start taking medication for his tremors or something? I can't remember. But maybe he did and that's why he doesn't constantly kill people and is awesome at surgery?
The daycare worker annoyed me too. The crying scene was so stupid. There's no way they'd pull a normal employee in for something like that, let alone an ER doc dealing with critical traumas. The baby was not annoying though. I feel like they've really exceeded my expectations with this baby. There wasn't drama around her birth, it just happened off screen. They skipped past her being a crying newborn keeping Nic and Conrad up all night. She was in the show but wasn't really a focus and wasn't annoying. If she can keep from having a medical crisis every week, she might end up being the best TV baby ever.
Is Nic getting written off? She isn't on the "Meet the Cast" page on the Fox website. And as others have said, they were laying the foreshadowing on pretty thick for her to have a wreck.

Re. Tom’s 2017 12 hr coma inducing cliff diving car accident and his resulting “diminished capacity”…apparently there is NO record with any hospital or police dpt of this accident. If it was as bad as Erika is claiming in 2020…multiple broken bones, concussion, head trauma, blackout…wouldn’t he have had to receive professional medical attention? Wouldn’t “The Firm” notice he was in a cast or limping or even missing from the office that Erika supposedly drove him to daily??
Not saying any of this really happened to Tom, but playing devil's advocate... I've been in a car accident where I broke my shoulder and dislocated my clavicle among other things and I didn't have a cast or a sling. I also went to the hospital and had years of physical therapy and then eventually surgery, which did result in a sling. But I didn't even know I had broken my shoulder until it was mentioned on an MRI a year or two later -- I mean I knew shit hurt, but so many things hurt that it wasn't my biggest problem. Aside from surgery I don't think they really do much for a broken shoulder anyway. It also depends on what part of your shoulder you break, I broke the back off the socket.

It was a good fast read - essentially an expanded magazine article with lots of filler that could be skipped but the chapter on behind the scenes stuff is must reading for any real fan.
I recommend reading his recaps because the comments are fantastic and he is being excoriated for his obvious lack of objectivity in his recaps. The guy takes every opportunity to give her a pass and the benefit of the doubt. He has always rated the episodes on a scale of 1 to 5 and he has the chutzpah to only give these Erika episodes a 3 star rating. I mean in the pantheon of Real Housewives episodes, these are among the most fascinating.
At this point his actual recaps are worthless but the comments are gold.
I'm glad to hear Brian Moylan is taking some lumps. I've never liked him or found him very clever and it would drive me nuts how much everyone licked his ass.

If you need cheap crap, there are far better sources in Los Angeles for legitimate sales.
She has two rooms filled with expensive clothing. When would she decide to wear a fugly $9.99 outfit instead of one of her expensive outfits.I haven't been in a decade, but the Bev Connection TJ Maxx or Marshalls or Nordstrom Rack (I can't remember which) used to have some really good high-end designer shit. The Nordstrom Rack in Glendale was really good too.

I haven't seen what everyone is talking about, but you need about 4" bigger than your dog in height and length. It sounds like people are speculating that he's crated for days though and that's super not good. It isn't great to leave your dog crated all day and it isn't safe to leave a dog crated if you are away from the house for extended periods of time. One of mine hangs in her crate a lot, but it's her choice as the door is open (although sometimes the dingbat will be in there with the door open and cry for me to come let her out, but that's usually if she has crated herself in response to me telling her she's being a dick). My dogs' crates are bigger than the minimum needed so they can have thick mattresses and pillows and fluffy blankets to their hearts' content. They are getting to be old ladies and when their backs are bothering them they prefer to hang in the crates because they are comfy and safe.

Makes sense. When I was about 20, I successfully out-talked, out-ran, and out-screamed my would-be attackers on 3 separate occasions.
However, the screaming was a one-off. I'm really a terrible screamer.I wonder if the writers heard about the woman who used her Walking Dead fantasy skills.
Anyway, since this was a sort of Chekhov's knitting needle, I am going to be expecting cactus milk in the eye of someone, hopefully a murderer.
I would imagine the writers have heard about the woman using the Walking Dead fantasy skills as it was the daughter from Dirty John. When he attempted to abduct and murder her she killed him like a walker. I believe she was stabbed a lot in the process, but it's been a long while since I've listened to that podcast.

Blood diamonds are illegal to sell, so are gems smuggled in from embargoed countries. There's other specifics around gem smuggling like under-declaring or declaring a different origin that are less likely to get caught (these are specific to smuggling into the US, not smuggling out of the originating countries). You can also reset stones from stolen jewelry into new pieces. I think there's a laser ID engraved into diamonds now to make this harder, but obviously it's not visible to the naked eye and you'd have to be looking for it. All of my jewel thief knowledge comes from TV and movies though so ymmv.

S05.E04: Now What??
in The Resident
Right? When Kit was like "you'd never" it was a giant eyeroll. At least the other doctor brought it up and Bell mentioned that he regretted it so it wasn't completely ignored. It did seem weird to do this storyline though with HODAD being the big elephant in the room. What was the point?
