Gabriel is adorable! What is Brynn doing thinking she will find a better guy than that??

Also, I MUST believe that the baby conversation happened first off-screen, and what we saw was a re-enactment. Otherwise, come on, too unfair and awkward to put somebody on the spot like that about something so life-changing.

Gabriel reminds me of Hugh Grant,  with his floppy hair and accent.

Pavit eating chips and salsa during the therapy  session, I wanted to feel  angry at him, but a tiny piece of me knew it was bugging  Jessel.

The rest was a tad boring, and I'm sick of hearing  pigeons, pigeons, pigeons !

is Brynn problematic with embellishing certain stuff to stories, yes, yes she is  HOWEVER Erin is just as bad .. i see you Erin and what you are trying to do with Brynn its the let me make the girls hate her so they like me better mean girl routine its classic HS girl behavior of "pretend" to be her friend let her in on stuff then claim she is lying so they take your side and slowly ice her out .. shes a sneak and i see it .. i lived that HS life  ..

While I don't agree with using such a personal topic as fodder for the "prank", it appears to me that Brynn is now lying to save face. Yes, Jessel shared the news with her Mom, but Brynn is the one who told everyone else embellishing along the way. I don't believe she knew it was fake until dodgeball day. Why would she tell Sai that she asked around and heard they were freaks? I think she was exposed as the gossipy harpy that she is and is now embarrassed and trying to deflect all the blame onto Erin. Might be a personal bias because I find her so obnoxious but she's the one who is constantly trying to drive conflict. Run Gideon, run.

Way too much time spent on Jessel/Pavit. They're really not interesting. I don't care to be privy to anyone's therapy session.

But she explains why she embellished it cause she knew it wasnt real... ERIN told her it wasn't true and i 100% believe that erin told her, thats why she told Ubah before she freaked out because she knows Ubah freaks about everything

As I stated, I don't believe her. We've watched Brynn do the same thing with other gossip, changing the narrative to make innocuous comments sound far more salacious.

The trap was set for her and she willingly fell into it. I'll give her credit that she was the quickest to suss out the ruse at dodgeball, when Erin & Rebecca ran off to chat after failing to hide their smirks. But, up until that point, she was positively gleeful talking telling everyone about it.

No fear, from the previews I expect she'll soon get all the (negative) attention she needs, giving her a chance to play victim once again.

We literally saw video of her telling Ubah. Feel free to hate on Brynn, but do it for the right reason.

At dodgeball (not before, like I said).

Oh, and thanks, I guess, didn't realize I needed you to approve of my reason...

Erin admitted that she told Brynn, but she tried to play it off that she just made a face. This isn't the first time she got caught saying something and tried to act like it was no big deal, or she was just kidding etc.  Shes sneaky and knows what she's doing.  Or she's just a big mouth and can't help herself. Either way-Messy!

Pavit needs to stop trying to make his Foodie image happen. Its not cute, its obnoxious.  No kne wants to see your open mouth, shoving food in it while speaking.  He's such a douche.

Speaking of obnoxious, I've become a huge prude because these shows and their obsession with sex and body parts has gotten so gross to me. A game where you try to pull the most 'dicks?' Major Ick.  

Brynn and her not boyfriend, if its what she wants-good for her, but all I see is a Dad that gets to swan in occasionally like Santa with gifts and all while Bryan does the day to day monotonous work, the discipline, the sleepless nights etc, all on her own.  Its a lot of work even when the Dad lives with you.  Its not ads easy to be the sexy,carefree flirt with that level of responsibility. Not saying Moms can't be sexy!! But Bryan seems to need a lot of attention and validation and I keep hearing Overboard-- But if you have a baby, then you won't Be the baby, anymore!

100%!

I am no prude and can have a mouth like a sailor but geeze the dick stuff is just so heavy handed, it's not funny or clever, it is tiresome just like every time one of the HW's utters the word "vagina," thinking it is edgy or cool, it is pathetic at this point.  

That said, a tipsy romp thru whatever that adult playground that was could be fun.

If I was the therapist that Jessel and Pavit used I’d set some boundaries. If not be just downright mad. When the Dr suggested that he no longer has snack time during their sessions Pavit replied “I’ll try”. No Pavit. Just don’t. It annoyed your wife, your therapist and we the viewers. How rude.

All I think of was where’s the hand sanitizer?

Well, I tried to ff past the boring parts, so I ended up at the previews for the rest of the season. 😒 Sorry, but I have zero interest in watching these dullards clomp around with children at a bougie Chuck E. Cheese, zero interest in their whinging about wanting a baby, and zero interest in a gaggle of nitwits laughing their heads off about pulling on d---s. You are in the capital of the world. But of course this is the activity you unrefined, vulgar hicks choose to do. "Let's pull on d---s! Hardy har har!" Talk about plumbing the depths of banality.

What is the range of one's IQ when one thinks a repugnant rumor like that idiotic 'prank' is funny or entertaining? Please fire these superfluous, exasperating bores and roll out The Jenna F. Lyons Show.

But it is barely her show, she could give us big fashion business scenes, she could give us a day in the life of, etc...I would watch any and all of that but these superfluous, exasperating bores are the ones doing all the talking, Jenna is very quiet.

Did Pavit ever take that trip to Viet Nam for a twenty minute vacation? He sure does talk about airline miles and points a lot, like air travel is really driving his being against having another child, he said it is hard enough trying to find four seats together, five is just too hard. I think he has to come up with a better, more honest answer than travel arrangements.

Ubah still bugs me, everything either makes her shriek or puke or fake puke. Grow up.

Haven't we been subjected to the museum of sex before? I don't remember the play area, but for some reason I'm thinking it was the season with Aviva and her gross father, ((gag)) who now that I think of it would have loved to flirt with a HW like Brynn ((gag)). 

It was and now you triggered me - he was so disgusting. Now I need to watch cat videos to take that image out of my mind so I can sleep… 😜

Very few comments.

Again, the prank was not funny. This is a serious subject (infidelity/open marriage) to use it for a prank. Rebecca Minkoff is 42. 

Both Brynn and Erin are messy.

Two women with similar storylines (frozen eggs, want babies). Boring. Pavit and Gideon wouldn't get involved too much in their children's lives. 

Does Jessel think the therapist would convince Pavit to have another baby?

Oof. Racquel’s interview look with the bangs and shag haircut and bad prom dress.

Yes. I noticed a few had new interview looks this episode. Not impressive. What's the infatuation with a too tight bodice?

PSA:

To those of you with daughters or granddaughters, encourage them to freeze their ova by the time they are 35 years old. 
 

From the American Society for Reproductive Medicine:
 

Unlike men, who continue to produce sperm throughout their lives, a woman is born with all the egg-containing follicles in her ovaries that she will ever have. At birth there are about one million follicles. By puberty that number will have dropped to about 300,000. Of the follicles remaining at puberty, only about 300 will be ovulated during the reproductive years.

she told her before dodgeball even Erin admitted to "telling" her .. she told UBAH at dodge ball so she wouldn't freak out .. this is all a game of telephone that Erin is omitting that she let someone in on to the other girls and is just trying to railroad Brynn ... again its classic highschool mean girl behavior that a women with two small children really shouldn't be doing in the first place has a "joke" its like she is mentally stuck in middle/highschool

Besides winning the looks lottery, what does she do aside from the odd modeling job? She doesn't seem particularly witty or interesting enough to be a personality ( I mean most of us aren't, but we're also not being featured on a television show for some reason). Most of the other cast at least have actual careers and/or family life to deal with off camera. Upon further reflection I suppose she embodies what this show has become, some attractive clothes hangers doing nothing much of interest.  

Who exactly was watching that kid at Brynn's place? Y'know, the one she supposedly borrowed so that her and her friend could play happy family? While they were talking you could hear the child off camera during the obviously manufactured scene but I don't recall seeing anyone else presented as being there.

Brynn did mention she was babysitting.

Exactly! So when she and the guy were wining it up and talking major life decisions who was in charge of the obviously awake and active child off camera? Which is why I called it a manufactured scene.

Isn't there a room full of camerapersons and producers with them when they film?  Aren't all the scenes manufactured?
