I am not sure but had a really bad night drinking martinis. Martinis are the devil. I do love the green apple martini... mmmmm!  I want a spicy margarita made by Tom S. Lol.

Others have mentioned it too but the most shocking thing of this episode for me was Peter's appearance.  I couldn't figure out if it was steroids, he's gotten fat or he's transitioning?  His boobs were as big as Britt's.  

 

His hair was pretty creepy too. Looks like he might have borrowed Sandoval's flat iron b/c I don't remember his hair being that straight. His whole look was just odd. I did have to laugh when that new girl called him a Pirate, poor Peter 😄

I'm sorry... but are we seriously supposed to listen to fucking KATIE MALONEY disown Kristen for being in a bad relationship? EXCUSE ME???

Have we not spent basically 8 entire years watching the most intense fuckery over and over and over again between Katie and Schwartz? Their relationship is the equivalent of a steaming pile of shit on top of a full dumpster. Schwartz cheats on Katie like it's going out of style - before the wedding, during the engagement, after the wedding, basically just all the time. And Katie - this demonic, impossibly stupid rage-aholic (and regular alcoholic) spends 90% of her time on screen losing her mind on her husband, new "sluts" who come near her, her friends, EVERYONE. These no-sex-having losers who despise each other are really putting on their "HAPPIEST RELATIONSHIP EVER" hat for the first episode as they always do.

Meanwhile, we get to watch Katie act like Miss Sanctimonious and have the absolute gall to criticize ANYONES relationship... bitch wut!??!

And Stassi, you're a racist too-big-for-your-britches bitch. Have you forgotten dating JAX? Frank? PATRICK??? The worlds biggest slimeball?? Who are you to criticize. Oh and btw you're new man is not as cute as you both think he is. He's a manic pixie dream boy with a Peter Pan complex and is desperate for attention. Congratulations.. you're marrying a clown.

I love this!!! Lol sorry Stassi. But I’ve always been a Kristen fan since even season 1 lol

The best part of this episode was the confirmation that Scheana is an awful kisser.  I bet she's terrible in the sack too.  

Lol but I bet she’s willing to do whatever in bed to make these “boys” happy lol

[ErikaAlyson]

Peter looked like he gained some weight. It was kind of creepy to me how he wanted Dayna to like I don’t know confirm they had hooked up on camera??? Lol what was the point of that scene lol what was Peter trying to do lol. Scheana is like the “Meg” of this show. Maybe it’s karma for how she treated her ex husband is why all her new men treat her so bad. Katie shows more love for Stassi than for Kristen smh. I can’t tell yet if Beau is genuine or not,his expressions seem like he cares lol. I love Tom Schwartz so cute,I think he’s genuinely a nice guy but maybe should be single. He just seems to have trouble being faithful but maybe he is now???

oh, I guarantee it. She's so insecure. She would probably spend 20 minutes just trying to find the angle that is most flattering.

My thoughts on the new episode:

1. I am glad it's back.

2. Not a fan at all of the newbies. The girl seems desperate/clingy, the two guys look like one person, and the one guy talking about Sheena's kissing - that's just a douchy thing to do on national television and I didn't like it, and so don't like him. Douche nozzle!

3. I DON'T think Stassi or Katie have grown at all. They are literally exactly the people they've been every season. I agree with others that you don't have to remain friends with the same people, but Katie has always been a bullying bitch and always needs a fight, and I don't know what Stassi's problem is honestly. From what I'm seeing of this Kristin situation it looks like Stassi, Katie, and even Lala, are claiming they are being great friends to Kristin and "trying to help her" but not by being there for her or talking to her and sitting with her while she cries it out. They want to "be there for her" by demanding that she do what they want when they want and if she's having trouble she can fuck off. With friends like those....

4. Lala saying she brings something to the table in her relationship - I think she nailed it. She always talks about her own body as if she is treated as a blow up doll and I'm guessing that's her "role", to be a living cum bucket for a large, old, rich, man.

5. Sandavol mentioning this very first episode to "bring sexy back" tells me that since marriage Katie is likely giving it up even less. I never saw what he saw in her but if he isn't even getting laid, yeesh!

6. and final: And I hope if people who see this post read just one part it will be this part: Katie listening to those guys talk about Sheena and then running over to tell Sheena isn't something a friend does. If your "friend" just sits around eavesdropping on on people, especially two romantic interests, talking shit about you and then runs joyously over to tell you about it instead of defending you and shutting them up and then sparing your feelings, that "friend" is no friend, she's just a bitch! Drop her!

I was surprised that Ken didn't appear in the episode or the opening credits. Is he retiring from the show ?

How can you tell with all the people in it?

I froze a  screen shot of the opening credits. He wasn't in it.

I do think he might appear later in the season.

In Katie's defense (and i don't even like her much) - I don't think she is that close with Scheena where I would call then friends.

One of the most clever women I've ever met once told me "you have two kinds of enemies - the one that says something nasty about you behind your back and the friend that works overtime to make sure you hear about it."

On a scale of 1 to Robert Downey Jr circa 1998, how high on cocaine was Jax when he was talking with Sandoval near the pool?

Omg too funny!!! I’ll see your Robert Downey Jr and raise you a 12 yr old Drew Barrymore. Jaxass always looks all coked up!

How long before Jaxass cheats again? He’s busy with the wedding but he’ll probably find the time to fuck some rando.  Bets anyone?

Jax can’t survive a year living the most boring suburban life ever in their ugly farmhouse.  He will be up to his old tricks in no time.

Brett's gay right?

[hoodooznoodooz]

It’s interesting to me that Scheana flipped when Katie told her that Max said she was boy crazy (which, I agree, is an embarrassing thing to learn), but then when she’s confronting him, she’s crying and denying that she’s crazy.

I think the issue with Kristin is actually what Stassi said when she went over to Kristin’s apartment. She has negative chill. If she’s upset she walks into a room and makes sure everyone is miserable. I’m sure that there’s been a pattern of Kristin having a fight with Carter and walking into Girls night in tears talking about the fight and how she’s going to break up with him, then not breaking up with him and walking into the next Girls Night tense and yelling about how it’s hard and she’s trying, and then deciding she’s in love again and dominating Girls Night with smug talk about mature relationships. And repeat. It’s exhausting. I have a friend like this and I actually had to back away from her when she lost a pet because it was months of her bursting into tears and screaming at me and talking about nothing but herself. MONTHS. I couldn’t take it anymore. It was exhausting. I sort of get how you just get your limit of being someone’s emotional punching bag. Especially someone who shows no interest in ever getting better. Not that any of them are great at emotional control but Kristin is on another level. It’s why i love her on my TV (the season where she went super villain  trying to get Tom and Ariana to admit they hooked up before Tom broke up with Kristin was one of the greatest TV moments I’ve ever witnessed), but I’m sure she’s exhausting.

However Katie is just bitchy. To everyone. All the time. I never got the intense Katie hate until this episode but yuck. What a deeply unhappy person. 

So Jax is an idiot, but I also wonder why Tom and Adriana choose a big house in the valley. What do they want the extra room for? Are they planning to turn part of it into a work space? It does seem like a lot of house for two people. Of course I also think Ariana would gladly jump into a getting pregnant story line if it meant staying in the show so we’ll see.

I'm with Stassi, those houses are identical. And I don’t love any of them. Any of those idiots trying to brag about about who found which dumb house first or who’s house is the best generic white track house is the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard. You are all approaching middle age! Buy whatever house you want and let it go!

Kristin’s house actually looked cute in that one picture. 

[hoodooznoodooz]

Someone once told me that a garage door facing the street was a big negative, and now it is always in the back of my mind. 

FozzyBear, your Kristen theory might be correct. And Katie is mean.

YES they are!!! They're not just Friends, but Amazing Friends!!!  AMAZING Friends, you hear me??!!!  Scheana only ever has Amazing Friends.

I was home sick when I had a VR marathon running, so I'm a bit fuzzy on what happened:

• Max hooked up with Schemer but she was so desperate and clingy (and a poor kisser) that he broke off all contact. HA!
• None of the original main cast members work at Sur (but I guess the Toms are at the new place).
• Brett broke his rule about dating coworkers with Dayna, who is transferring to SUR.
• LaLa has gone sober and lives in Utah. She still is obnoxious. Why is she here?
• Peter (the Pirate)'s memories of being with Dayna do not match hers. Awkward!
• Kristen is having trouble breaking up with Carter. For some reason, the Coven think she's lying to them about it?
• Wow, Jax is really milking this wedding for all it's worth!
• Watching Katie eavesdrop on Max and Brett was both funny and pathetic. Katie tattling to Schemer was just pathetic.

Haha I was watching these a few weeks ago while sober but healthy and bored, so I can fine-tune a few of these for you 😄

• Max had hooked up with Scheana and had already dumped her before filming started - right after she gave him an apple watch (which he wears all the time!) for Thanksgiving.  Skeevy Brett is the one who outed Scheana as a bad kisser (more on that fucker later)
• Toms are at Tom Tom; Scheana and the newbs you've mentioned, plus Danica and Charlie, are at SUR
• Skeevy Brett apparently hooked up with Scheana and decided that his "personae" on the show would be the one to continually try to "out" and "shame" Scheana for liking him - hence him calling her a bad kisser.  (although Stassi already called her better than all the girls, Jax AND Frank, so nice try Skeevy Brett) 
• He then tried to go on a date with Charlie, which consisted of him taking her out for vegan food when she's not a vegan, and turning her off by discussing his "ex" at length.  Knowing that Scheana, who he had already hooked up with, was jealous, he spilled those beans to the super-young Charlie. When she told Scheana what he had said, and Scheana confronted him in front of Charlie, he tried Ye Olde "I don't get you women!" tact - complete with throwing his hands in the air! - Charlie told him to go write about it in his diary and sauntered off - hee hee 😂
• Skeevy Brett then started a thing with Dayna, who was smarting from breaking up with Max.  As Max's "best friend" Brett tried to stay in the middle of that road, resulting in him screaming that he had no feelings for Dayna at a bar table in front of Dayna and most of the rest of the cast. 
• Luckily although Dayna hasn't much self-respect, she has too much to put up with this skeevy poser and his "best friend" and decides to be done with both of them 😃
• Lala's nasty ass is lucky to get a bullet point from me but that's all she gets so I'll stop here
• Dayna's a skank - she was one of the girls who came up to the room "with Peter" last season, turning Beau and Jax all aflutter, and she's here as a "regular" on this season, so I'm going with Peter's story being true 😏
• As for the rest - my favorite scene of the season was after Scheana had wrangled Brett into appearing in a soft-core porn scene for her "music video", and he decided the most masculine thing to do about it was to appear in her video and then complain to the rest of the cast that he "felt violated" - I loved when Scheana found out about his whining, called him a big baby and then let him go (sez she: "I could say you're fired, but I wasn't paying you!") and then she peaced out with him whining in the background "I don't think we're fine!"  And that happened just after he left his hair curly for the day, even though his mom had always told him that his face was too pretty to cover with his gorgeous curly hair!  😂😂😂.
• Scheana may be a narcissistic whack job, but she's MY narcissistic whack job and I don't need some super-groovy, mouth-agape monkey trying to act like he's too cool for her when he's a newbie on HER Show (sorry LVP!)
