  1. There's a woman who restarted the FB page ridiculing Mo and she suggests that Mo is using an anti-domestic violence statute against Danielle as that will offer a defense to deportation. Rewatching his meeting with the lawyer, the lawyer says there is information they can use to go on the offensive. With the police reports Mo filed in Ohio and even Miami that might actually be the plan. Remember he took out a restraining order against Danielle's son also, very early on.  Do we think this is possible and if so is it what he's up to?

  2. The latest attorney has an office in Sandusky (we saw the storefront) but when there were complaints to the Ohio bar by unhappy clients, it turned out that the Ohio bar had no jurisdiction over him as he was not a member of it.  He is supposedly a member of the federal bar in Ohio, but I would think clients would reasonably believe that a sole practitioner with a storefront practice in Ohio was admitted to practice in state court there and subject to the ethical regulations of that state's bar.  I don't think this would fly in Florida.

  3. Pardon me but where are we discussing Happily Ever After? So much to comment on!  On his FB page MO is outraged -- outraged I tell you -- by his depiction but sadly contractually unable to rebut his portrayal. Lucky for him the heifers remain solidly in his corner.

  4. This is the most insightful and informative show thread on this and I depend on it to catch all the nuance I miss!   You all are amazingly observant.  So could someone please wrap up -- who was seeking to kill Carrie and why is she now in the clear -- watching the show piecemeal I am a little lost in terms of tying together the attack at the refugee camp, the plane shootdown, the off-the-meds episode, the contact with the Iraqi informant, the stolen documents, the laptop theft in Amsterdam. I get it that Allison was an enemy because of what might have been in the documents but was she behind all the adversity Carrie encountered this season?

  5. I have been on the sidelines forever but have a couple of comments on the most hate worthy couple (if you can call them that) of the season. First, I looked at a couple of mail-order bride sites for the Philippines and there are hundreds of girls and women grouped by age categories. Plenty in the age-appropriate range for Mark, meaning he chose to look at the junior level girls. So I don't think the comments against him are out of place.  Second he has 3 sons all very close to Nikki in age -- we've seen the daughter so that dynamic gets most of the comments but it is weird that he has half-Filipino sons that Nikki might actually be attracted to. So sad. Third and last, I re-watched the documentary Queen of Versailles last night and as those of you who have seen it may recall, the incredibly gauche family has a team of Filipino nannies working around the clock -- one was living in the children's neglected play house outside to have her own space. She cried as she said she left her own children in the Philippines and had not seen them in 11 years since she needs to stay and make money so they can survive.  Who knows what Nikki's circumstances were. Still the power imbalance and her lack of options is sickening.  


    I also have a comment on the prenup.  When they showed the page as she initialed it, it literally said "Nikki" with a space and "Mark" with a space.  I am not a family law lawyer but that seems awfully casual, and certainly suggested to me it was at best an amateur effort.

  6. The FB comments suggest that there are lots of people as or more delusional than Danielle. When I was 12 I wrote to The Monkees to invite them over for dinner when they came to town .... but I grew up. These people seem to think they are part of the story and have a personal relationship with our man Mo. I like the comment to the effect that "I'm a great grandma from California let me know how I can help." As if. The Laura person going on about another FB page -- that's delusional, right???? I'm lost in all the posturing and accusations.

  7. Same on the hidden TV life. My law firm at one time had a cheesy marketing campaign featuring women attorneys in their extracuricular pursuits -- ya know like rock climbing or kickboxing or what have you -- and I thought "hmmm me slurping a Cosmo sprawled out with the dog watching RHOBH probably won't work." I had to evade.
