S11.E13: Season’s Grillings

[jewel21]

Quote

Shockwaves from an unexpected news article continue to spread as the ladies try to piece together the truth. Meanwhile, Garcelle serves up a very Haitian holiday meal for her family. When Kyle gathers the ladies for Christmas dinner, holiday cheer turns to jeer as the women press for answers, and Erika realizes that not everyone has her best interests at heart.

Don’t know if I did this properly — mods, feel free to fix.  Just wanted to start a thread for tonight’s episode.

[Chicklet]

Love Garcelle but what the hell is she wearing?

[RealHousewife]

Thanks Thumper! I thought about creating a thread too but wasn't sure if you had to be a mod for episode threads. 

 

[Thumper]

So they are going to grill Ericka at the Christmas party???  So Housewives!!!

It is the season of giving…. 

[charming]

How much is Erika paying Rinna to live up her ass? There's something more going on there. Sutton had a shaky start but she's bringing logic and common sense. Erika's been lying and spinning all season. 

[JD5166]

For heavens sake, Kyle s cooking dinner for everyone again..... JUST STOP, Queen of domestic-a.

I didn't realize Kyle's tacky neon pink sign was so large. It actually affects the lighting in the rooms off the entryway.

And go Sutton!

[Straycat80]

Like the fashion on this show or not but everyone dresses like they just walked off a catwalk. 

[bosawks]

Apparently door opening is the new dish washing for Dorit.

[RealHousewife]

Those scenes don't bother me, but I wonder if Kyle is trying to get a cooking spin-off or something. 

[Thumper]

Gorilla — chicken … ??? Not following.

[jewel21]

Sorry, everyone. The thread was created on Sunday but it's usually locked until the day of airing. Seeing as how I don't watch the show or remember when it airs, and the mod who normally does is unavailable, I forgot to unlock it. Sorry again! Post away!

[Thumper]

Oh right, Lisa. Did you follow your advice with Denise? (Innocent until proven guilty)

[bosawks]

It took me a couple of seconds to realize Teddi hadn’t been part of the season before tonight.

She is that dynamic a personality….

[eleanorofaquitaine]

Rinna should stop with her Erika defense and she should really stop with justifying that because of Denise. 

[65mickey]

Yeah Rinna let's all remember innocent until proven guilty. Right like last year with Denise. Rinna you are not getting away with that.

[Thumper]

Interesting that Teddi is there.  Denise?   LVP? 😁

[Straycat80]

Erika is so poor now she had to drive herself. 🙄

[FlyingEgret]

As Sutton said... it is Rinna's prerogative to stand by Erika; just as it is her prerogative not to...

Get it straight Rinna

[bosawks]

Ha!

”Do you want to say hello?”

”Nah, I’m good.” 

Kyle put her heart and soul in that dinner.

Wouldn’t that make it basically a crouton and half an olive?

[Straycat80]

Hey Kyle, I’ll bet the burn victim and plane crash women and children feel down this Christmas because someone stole their money. 
Get her Sutton! 

[JD5166]

Garcelle is all of us, “Teddy is annoying like a gnat” 

[Chicklet]

What is Dorit's issue? She's just poking the bear now. She really does need to eat some mashed potatoes.

[Keywestclubkid]

Its a never ending game of round n round

But there's no room on the half full plate...

[eleanorofaquitaine]

I don't think that Dorit was expressing support for Erika? It seems like she was winding up to ask a probing question. Weird that Garcelle would blow that up.

And she might have to clean it!

[Mindthinkr]

Erika is the epitome of game face. She must be making big bucks to sit there.

I was thinking how much richer the BH HWs looked during season 1 & 2 when they wore jeans.

In her never-ending quest to become LVP I'm sure Kyle is working on some sort of cookbook / product angle. Yet she served peas in aluminum foil.

It's such a gadawful fit for the home. Kyle really needs to break up with Faye.

[eleanorofaquitaine]

Oh please, Erika's high dudgeon is ridiculous. 

Edited August 19, 2021 by eleanorofaquitaine

[Keywestclubkid]

she can be dragged into court Erika because of you

[eleanorofaquitaine]

They are so intent on attacking Sutton that they don't realize they are pushing Sutton to force Erika to talk.

[Straycat80]

I like how Garcelle is not coddling Erika like the rest of them. Shut up Rinna! Why is she so far up Erika’s ass? Sickening. Kathy is not saying anything, she’s probably the only one eating the food.

She obviously is right thinking that offense is thte best defense and so does Rinna--but I think Garcelle and Sutton will wind up looking better in the end. Garcelle is right about her not showing any anger at Tom, despite the fact that she's claiming that Tom basically used her, made up an LLC and put her name on it and then funnelled money into it that she wasn't allowed to know about...?

[bosawks]

To her credit Teddi’s face did look like, “Huh, maybe getting fired from Andy isn’t so bad.”

Teddi's boring life >>> Erika's scandalous life and having to deal with it

[eleanorofaquitaine]

Did Erika really think she was going to stop these allegations from being on the show? Yeah, sure, Erika, it's Sutton's fault that the Los Angeles Times wrote a huge expose on you.

 

[Keywestclubkid]

its a little noisy?? ROFL

[Wicked]

Dorita continues to suck.  Erika looks very tired

And worse - Sutton read and understood it...

[bosawks]

If Erika has a publicist they must be yelling themselves hoarse screaming at the tv, “Stop talking about yourself and just pretend to care about at least one widow or one orphan for god’s sake!”

[Mr. Miner]

Perfect opportunity for Teddi to bring up “pretend amnesia” again. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Boofish]

I dont get the fear of Erika. Are they scared she's going to beat them up after school?

[sistermagpie]

Seriously, it really is amazing that according to Erika Tom completely set her up as a patsy for his evil crimes, but she's just really worried about his mental decline now. It's like she's trying out several different "sympathetic" personas at once and doesn't understand how they undermine each other. Either you're Tom's ride or die wife or you're his biggest victim and, as Garcelle would say, fuck Tom.

Oooh, okay now Erika is clearly on Tom's side and saying he's innocent. She just pretty much said he didn't steal the money because she hasn't seen it...while she's been spending it for years.

[janiema]

Listen up Erika. Sutton’s forensic accountants will find the money.

[bosawks]

Um, we all know you want to know where the money is, Erika.

We just don’t know whether you want it for yourself (yup) or to make restitution to the families (probably not).

[65mickey]

Even Sutton is going soft on Erika. Why didn't Sutton come back at Erika when she said that she was kept away from the books for her LLC?  At the meeting Sutton said if her name is on the LLC she is responsible. Now it is we all love and support you.  Come on ladies ask the question and stop pussyfooting around with this. 

[eleanorofaquitaine]

Two weeks ago, Tom was a controlling jerk. This week, he's a doddering fool.

Watching these episodes really demonstrates how quickly her story changed.

And thank you, Garcelle, for highlighting the victims. Erika's so-called concerns are so inauthentic.
