I totally agree with this and 100% think the B was just going for the show/ratings. And it feels gross that Jill wanted the cameras there, too. Speaking of having ample opportunity to visit -- does anyone else remember the scene with Dorinda and Ramona in the car supposedly on the way to the funeral (I think) where Ramona talks about going to visit and Dorinda made some comment about not getting a chance to? I really hope she meant she didn't get a chance to right at the very end, since she's brought up a few times that they were good friends. Hopefully I'm mis-remembering that one. It happens. I'm old.

And even then...

I loved watching Rachel's birthday in Vegas with Frank. And the gifts he gave her, in particular the speech book where he pointed out which speech was his favorite. She is most certainly my favorite.

I don't like Bethenny, but unfortunately I hate a gang up even more. Screw you, show, for making me feel protective of that b.

I think, based on a preview at the reunion, that Bethenny thanked Dorinda multiple times in text, but not on camera...and that's what Dorinda was pissed off about. I have no idea re: Lu. She probably didn't say a word off camera, either.

Holy adult diapers, I think you might be on to something. Verrrrrry interesting!

This episode was just meh for me. I did chuckle about Sonja and her diaper, though.

I just binged season 3. Why is this show so addicting? And leaving it how they did. Argh!

Carole is clearly the most excited out of all of the girls about Lu's arrest; she's practically salivating talking about it. That 'con' exercise thing was her idea and was such a bitch move. It looks like next episode she continues to get the digs in, too.

I don't think it's Photoshop... eek!

Guys did Lisa get new teeth??

I finally got around to watching the episode and don't really have much to add (you guys are the best), except: this is the first episode I've actually enjoyed Tinsley (and remembered she was part of the show). So that's something! Although her TH I-Dream-of-Jeannie look is a big NO. Whoever said that Carole looked like one of those dried apple things really hit the nail on the head. I don't know how she can see out of her slits. OH! speaking of eyes, this whole episode every single time Ramona had a TH she had a very obvious squinchy eye. She looked like Columbo (Ramlumbo?) and I couldn't pay attention to a thing she was saying. Has she always been like this and it's taken a gazillion episodes for me to notice? How embarrassing.

Gem - did your daughter enjoy it? I totally tried to get tickets. Not because I think she can sing, but I thought it would be fun.

Random thoughts: I thought Lu acted different at the Berkshires. I mean we've seen her drunk before, but she seemed different to me. Sorta belligerent or...I dunno. Maybe it's just because I know what was going to happen soon after... I agree with the others - I'd never trust telling Carole anything. I think Bethenny made some comment about how it was ironic that Carole was calling B out for saying Lu was a loser. I can only imagine what Carole says about Lu when *not* on TV being as she loves to roast her on it. I loved the editors (yes, again!) cutting between the fight and the drunk dancers/idiots. They actually looked like they were having fun! I don't like either of them and I don't think either of them 'won' that fight. I would totally live in Lu's new penthouse! Ramona is a giant hypocrite, but I loved her reading B on the phone. The last minute of the episode, though...wow. I don't think I've ever seen anything as humiliating on this show. Just when you think things for Lu can't get worse (sticking with cheating Tom)...yikes. The mighty really have fallen. I'm one of the few that actually likes Lu (for the most part) and I feel a wee bit bad for her.

They both need a story line.

Why did Carole say she couldn't donate her blood?

Lu: "If I'm a loser, the rest of the world SUCKS!" Cameras immediately pan to Tinsley. I've said it a gazillion times since this franchise started: I love these editors.

Bethenny: "Men come and go, but strong women last!" Ramona's voice: "I'll cheers to that!" Short TH clip of Sonja shaking her head no. Oh, Editors. I heart you.

I enjoyed this episode. I like it when they do fun stuff (OK, maybe it's just fun to me) and aren't screeching at each other. I actually wish the mystery wouldn't have ended so abruptly! Lots of funny things from Sonja carrying the calculator around, Ramona telling everyone the assistant hated his boss, Lu with the mouth-to-mouth, and even Tinsley got in a good one re: the police.

I'm laughing at all of this. I think it's pretty good. After Bethenny made that comment about having a fritter in her hand, the waiter put more dip on it. And of course Lou went in for the mouth-to-mouth. Hahaha.

Sonja taking pics of the room cracked me up.

I don't know how to feel about the fact that Sonja, who had a story line a few years ago about having a funeral for her pet, gave away both her dog and her cat. I guess as long as she gave them to good homes

I don't particularly like Bethenny or Carole, so this fight is a nice break from the usual stuff for alliance/story lines for me.

I do have to say that I will miss the Editors on this show. When Jax said he never said James and Kristen had sex they showed a clip with the caption "29 minutes earlier" (or something like that) of him saying exactly that. I got a good laugh out of that one.
