So much for the other women banding together and taking down Tamra...I hope that's a surprise left out of the official episode summary/preview.

Tamra is David to Shannon. Shannon will remain loyal to Tamra no matter how many times she gets stabbed in the back or face. Just like Shannon would have stayed loyal to David and married to him if he didn't file for divorce.

Shannon's first season - it was Tamra who blabbed to the other ladies about Shannon's marital issues. It was Tamra and Heather - who made the catty comments suggesting Shannon should be hospitalized for her mental issues.

All this is on film - I'm sure Shannon watched and yet....Tamra and Shannon are best buddies.

I'm pretty sure on those 20 daily calls to Tamra, Shannon was drunk most of the time. Tamra took those calls not because she was Shannon's friend but because she wanted the juicy info on Shannon's private life to file away.

Even if Shannon ever figures out that their relationship is toxic - I could see her staying loyal to Tamra out of fear. Not because she is afraid of Tamra getting physical - but about all of the things she might have confided to Tamra in private being made public

[Hangin Out]

Tonight, Gina switched to talking like a Valley Girl.   Shannon now drinks “Skinny Girl Marguerita with Patron.

I am really curious what the artwork is behind Kelly’s couch that they keep blurring out.  

Gina’s hair really is bad.  Still.

[Mr. Miner]

Does Bravo really think people want to watch a rat face therapy session? 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Straycat80]

Archie sighting! I’m not even listening to this conversation Shannon is having with her daughter. 

[Emmeline]

Dear Lord, this is a boring episode.  I don’t need to hear about the college admission process for these OC kids.

I do like Jolie.  She does seem level headed inspite of her mother.  On the other hand, she’s going to the UK alone?

Lol! I was just about to post the same thing. I don’t care about any of their kids. Bring on the dogs! 🐶 

[Straycat80]

This is kind of sad that Jolie is actually more mature and makes more sense than her mother. 

[Axie]

What is the deal with Tamra’s feet in the therapist office?  They look like she wears a size 24 shoe.

[JD5166]

Why is Ryan going what he’s going thru? Oh...I don’t know, TV CAMERAS IN HIS FACE? Life on tv ALL THE TIME? Taping his therapy session for TV (Tamara pity session?) Jesus. I don’t care about this, grow up you sack of shit and GET OFF TV!! You are not interesting! 

The list of things that he used to describe himself are things he’s reading on the internet (guilty!) why do we have to see this? He needs real help, kid is a hot mess.

[whydoievencare]

Why does Gina have a big smile on her face when talking about how jealous her husband is?  So odd.

[Mr. Miner]

I guess we’ll just have to take Gina’s word for it. Since, you know, nobody has ever seen this “Matt” character. 🖕🏻Gina!

[Emmeline]

The best thing I can say about Gina is that she seems to have very stable, supportive, parents.

[Straycat80]

This is such a boring episode. I don’t care about the kids. I don’t care about creepy Ryan and his problems. Everyone is unhappy and don’t get along. There is no joy in watching this show anymore, hope this season is almost done. 
It’s pretty bad when the only thing I get excited  about seeing are the dogs.

Tamara’s too busy talking about other people to talk about herself.

[Bronzedog]

Brownwind annoys me even when she's just sitting there.

I keep checking the clock to see if this is almost over.

[Keywestclubkid]

you're the puppet master I'm not gonna let you flip this around on me.... Tamra girl this is ALL on you... 

[Andi27]

Wait, Tamra is surprised that Kelly 'flipped on her'? Come on, how many years have you known her?

[whydoievencare]

Tamra moaning about the fact that they bash the person who isn't there - which she does all the time.  But it's bad when it's Tamra who is on the receiving end. 

[Mr. Miner]

I guess we know how Eddie feels about Ryan, and I agree. 👏🏻

Tamra is doing her damndest to worm her way out of any responsibility with all the shit that she has started .... now shes gaslighting Shannon (which isn't that hard to do but still) she tried to throw Shannon under the bus now shes gonna throw Vicki instead ... what a true christian woman she is

It’s SICKENING TO HER!  Just before she proceeds to talk about Kelly pushing her mother down the stairs, when Kelly is not there.  

[LibertarianSlut]

Tamra is more concerned about Shannon not calling her for five days than Ryan's alleged impending suicide. 

[ghoulina]

I feel like I need a flow chart to keep up with who all is saying what about whom. But I do know this - it all leads back to Tamra. 

I should have known better than to get excited about her getting called out, though. Especially by Shannon. Ms. Beador did NOT go into that lunch prepared. Tamra was HOT; and Shannon was quivering like undercooked chicken. 

I give zero fucks about Ryan and his therapy. At least you can afford therapy, you rapey eyed motherfucker. 

I laughed so hard when Gina was having her disingenuous conversation about boundaries and her son comes over with, "Like...I don't even get what chinchillas are." Dude. Never change. 

Also, they're rodents.

[ErikaAlyson]

I wonder why Eddie seems to dislike Ryan lol 

Wow Brauwyn is being disloyal telling Tamra next week what Kelly said about her. Gina loves that Matt is jealous imo deep down. I think Shannon was lying about why she didn’t call Tamra for those days like she was coving her butt lol she was obviously mad about what she thought Tamra had said about her haha

I didn't get that whole conversation between Shannon and Tamra - Tamra actuallly thinks that Shannon "staged" or "set up" Kelly to speak badly about her?  Shannon - who cannot stand and barely speaks to Kelly??  

And, don't these women realize that calling someone a "puppet master" is actually kind of a backhanded compliment in the RH world?  That means that the rest of women are the "puppets", so they are easily manipulated to do someone else's bidding.  Stupid, stupid women!!  

[islandgal140]

The title to this episode is "The Orange doesn't fall from from the tree" which I believe alludes to Tamra and Ryan so the more apt title would've been the turd doesn't fall far from the asshole!

Shannon looked like a chastised catholic school girl in Mother Superior's office getting read the riot act. I should've known better than to think for a minute that Tamra would ever face consequences for a decade of evilness. The look at her face during that meeting was just naked menace.

This whole BS episode was a waste of my time. Did I really need to watch Bronte, her husband and child tour a college campus? I usually like Shannon's girls, but I think I sprained a cornea upon learning her daughter was writing a book about children of divorce. I also find it hard to believe that uptight control freak Shannon waited until her daughter was a senior in HS to get serious about the college admission process.

I watched a rerun of Tamra's "baptism" today and thought - wow....how quickly Tamra has fallen out of grace!  It didn't take long for her to forget all about that baptism of hers!!

It’s nice to see that for her daughters day she made sure to make it about her in her short shorts and rah rah white cheerleader booties. Look at meeeeee!

Kelly Dudd is dumber than Lynn Curtin, and that’s pretty hard to do. Emily has the scolding voice of a 60 yo spinster schoolmarm. I’ve already bitched enough about beta bitch Brown Noser and her hideous laugh. These three boring bozos are taking Tamra down? The show would end. And screeching, shit throwing monkey Kelly looks like an idiot in her overpriced Gucci accessories and awful flyaway hair. 

The Ick is getting her orange back. These losers have nothing remotely interesting to watch. As awful as she and Tamra are, they at least give some entertainment. And unlike the Dudd in her shitty 80’s rental with the ugly pink couches, Tamra brings the house porn. So does the ick.

i don’t watch this for people in rentals. I look at a rental every day.

Therapy sessions and college entrance information which we all have gone thru so many times already.  Who wants to hear about that?

Shannon is a little wimp when talking things thru with Tamra.  Why didnt she let Tamra have it for once?  She acted as if she was afraid of her.  I’d believe Kelly before Tamra any day.  I wish this was the demise of Tamra.  Shannon needs to have her head bonked again and knock some sense into it.  She acted like a scared little rabbit.

Forget is mild. She is full on back in demon mode. She is vomiting pea soup, levitating and her head rotates 360 degrees. I expect to see her spider walk backwards down her magnificent stairs any minute.

I don’t believe one word she is saying about Matt.  She’s a habitual liar. He got fired from his job.  Why isn’t he on the t.v.?  What happened to his girlfriend?  Was any of this discussed on the show?  Did I miss something?

[ridethemaverick]

Every time I listen to the intros, Shannon's makes me stabby. Bitch, you are not dancing on tables so STFU. The one time you did, it was one of the saddest things I've ever seen on TV.

Eddie, tell us how you really feel about loserboy.

"A doctor, a lawyer, and Kelly!" Lmao Emily. I see you. But seriously, it's nice to see her with a friend other than Gina even though we all know the clock is ticking until Kelly punches her in the neck or something.

That's all I got. Zzzzzzzz

[LibertarianSlut]

So Shannon tells Tamra that she's hurt because Kelly showed Shannon a video from Tamra making fun of Shannon's " injury"? 

Tamra's defense: I'd never trivialize the pain of a dear friend

Oh, wait, no, nevermind, Tamra's defense was that it was a screenshot, not a video! Hey, that's just like in My Cousin Vinny when Mona Lisa Vito testified that the defendants couldn't have been driving the getaway car because the tire tracks were Indicative of independent rear suspension!

if this is Tamra's best and they still can't topple her puppet regime? i don't have words (actually, I probably do have words. A Wednesday morning without me reading Tamra and Gina for filth would be like a week without Botox or bleach for them).

[Dance4Life]

Gina....Matt, Matt, Matt...this Matt and that Matt.

In case, you are wondering who is Matt.   This is him! 

Of course, Gina’s wedding was purple! 🥳

Get rid of her once and for all.  I can’t stand that rat upper lip anymore.  She looked guilty as hell talking with Shannon.  Busted.

[janie2002]

Tamra was so pissed she was cut out of the loop. Lolenkelly said on Instagram this is her only way to make money.

Shannon was a wimp

But, normal.

It is cool watching the kids going off to college. What a wonderful time in their life!

Anyone feeling old??

Teen Mom kids are officially TWEENS and Gia Giudice is a freshman in college!  😘

Me?  I am finally old enough

to be a Housewife of ....they never came to my city! 😥

[breezy424]

Tamra did her homework and prepared her defense with Shannon who gets easily flustered with Tamra, especially when Tamra is talking a mile a minute.  Tamra 'knows' she stirs up the shit - she needs that orange.  Yeah Tamra, all roads lead back to you.

Why is it that every time I see Ryan I think of Shane.  Oh, maybe it's because they're both creepy.

Really, more college applications and tours.  Interesting how Braun dresses for a college tour.  I wonder how she'll dress when they move their daughter in.

Doctor Brian wasn't wearing his scrubs....

Gina and Matt = boring.  Like this episode.

I look forward to your reads!  

I wish I could be excited about the Tamra takedown that has been long in coming.  But!

It's being led by Kelly through Brawyn.  And I just can't get behind either of them.

It's like being given a cake, but its fruitcake.  You feel kind of cheated.  Because it is cake and you should be enjoying it, but its nasty cake.

[mbaywife123]

I saw exactly what Tamra was doing to Shannon at lunch. She was basically threatening Shannon that she better get back in line and help Tamra point the finger back at Kelly or else she will start spilling Shannon's tea.

How sad that Tamra carries Ryan’s visual board around with her!

Ryan wants to be a Milionaire!  
 

Tamra’s facelift finally settled and it looks very natural.  Eyes a little squinty....but, think those are her natural rat eyes, anyways.  Not the doctor’s work.  🤣

To me it's a visual, they are similar in looks. Personalities not so much. Shane is a seasoned sniper. Ryan is the lazy perpetual victim.

[mbaywife123]

Gee Ryan, I seem to remember a few seasons back that Tamra rented and was having a house fixed up for you and "Annie" get your gun "fiancé " and all her and your one crotch goblins to live in.

You then decided that was not where you wanted to be and moved to Nevada or Idaho, or somewhere like that.

Go cry to someone else you slacker.

Tamra is such a heinous bitch! To quote one of my favorite movies:

“All you do is scare and lie to try and get what you want. You a Godless woman.”

Ain’t you tired, Miss Tamra?
