Monica said in confessionals that she has a lot more to reveal, and I think that was a Reality Tease for the Bravo production to offer her a second season.

 Doesn't seem like there's much more new information to be had. And none of these women are going to give her a lot of time if they are smart. I would never trust her with any information, nor would I believe her to be genuine in any conversation that I had with her. If she can make that work, she deserves a second season, but it's going to be tough. You can only milk rumors about husbands so much. Look at how boring all the same old attack on husbands has made RHOP. It gets old fast!

I thought Secret Service agents protected the president (I had a neighbor that was Secret Service and that is what he did) and not get involved in federal crimes and other legal things.  I would have believed her more had she said she had an FBI friend who tipped her off (yeah right like that would happen in real life, those agents don't talk out of school).  

The only thing I can think of is he worked for Mitt Romney.  Otherwise, why would one live in Utah?  But, it's Monica, so I don't believe it.

Bravo forces them (or most of them, Lisa was wearing Gucci in the previous reunion) to do it. It provides the clothing which is by mostly unknown "designers" the women would never wear, and there are color themes, as well.

perhaps BrookS MarkS designed the dresses...

that's the first thing I thought. As soon as he saw how much work it was going to be, he ran home to the money. But it'll be played off as 'Jacks soul searching and reconsidering his future as a Mormon' or 'Jack realized college was the path he should be taking and is so eager to accomplish his goals, he didn't want to wait.' Waiting to hear the spin.

Heather was "lucky" to go to France for her mission, as she told us. Or her father's connections worked because he is Mormon royalty. I'm not sure Jack will even go to college. He had no intention of going a couple of years ago. He is in California now according to Lisa, and I'm not sure it's for a mission.

There is always fudge college.

Secret Service investigates financial crimes.  They have offices and agents all over the US.

Still don't believe she is friends with one.

I did laugh when Andy imitated Meredith's crazy speech pattern.  

That was funny. He did it a few times. Meredith's face looked better to me. It looks like she's backed off the filler a little. She sounded less drugged so perhaps she skipped her daily pill(s). 

I didn't really like any of their dresses. Whitney went overboard on the face tanner. Sheesh! Heather's face looked less frozen and plastic. Monica is pretty but hateful. I don't like watching her. 

I wasn't buying Whitney's excuse about Justin's ring. It seemed convenient. If it was that simple, it seems like it would've been said much earlier.

If she is it's because that one is a dirty agent, lol.

Monica was accused of taking Ozempic when she appeared on BravoCon in the beginning of November. 

About Justin's ring: I don't believe Whitney's excuse either. She didn't say anything during the show, but she created a story eight/nine months after filming ended. It's easy to add a little bit of gold, or platinum to a plain wedding band to size it up. It can be "stretched", as well.

I don’t think Monica is a good fit. Too trashy (even for a Ho show!) and not wealthy enough. No house porn!

No house porn? What about her warning her mother not to walk in without knocking because she could be doing "the 69," on the couch, that could be house porn, lol!

That's true, with the exception that the revelations about her MADE this entire season!  There is more buzz about RHSLC and people are tuning in again, post Jen Shah.  However, I don't see how she could continue as part of the friend group in the future.

She keeps turning up like a bad penny, Bravo knows we all hate her but drama is drama.

So true....but, I think that bad pennies turn into good ratings, which in turn, create advertising dollars that become "good pennies" for Bravo.  

Or, at least something like that, I think!  🤣

We all know that's all Bravo really cares about at the end of the day.

Speaking of Brandi, anyone know when they are airing the UGT featuring her and Caroline Manzo?

They aren't. It was filmed before Legacy, which has been released.

I thought I read they were airing it after the NY Legacy one that just finished, although the story didn't say exactly when.

I noticed Lisa did that with the word important (‘impor-ant’). 
Is that a Utah accent thing? 

seems to be regional (and somewhat generational), notice it lately in Rocky Mountain areas. and yeah, it's annoying. :)

Caroline Manzo just sued Bravo, and others, so I doubt this will air any time soon.

Good for her. These housewives altercations just keep escalating and Bravo does nothing to protect them and keep putting the offenders on screen, like Brandi, which just encourages the offenders to keep it up. They should've fired and ghosted Brandi after she slapped Lisa Vanderpump. Unfortunately for Caroline, they didn't and she was sexually assaulted by Brandi. I never cared for Caroline, but I feel just horrible for what happened to her. I hope she gets Bravo to pay out the nose and puts Brandi behind bars for a bit.
