S10.E11: A Psychic Surprise

[Tara Ariano]

The task of disciplining kids is easier said than done for Shannon and David; Brooks decides to stop chemotherapy and try a different approach; the ladies are shocked by a claim from Tamra's psychic.

[Bronzedog]

Wow. If the psychic was right, I guess Billy was constipated after all.

[chenoa333]

Tamra has a personal psychic. I saw his info on her facebook page many months ago. He's extremely good looking ad lives in Laguna beach (the same city andy cohen's beachfront house is at. Bravo has filmed several OC housewives reunions there.

Anyway, i don't know why tamra thinks her psychic is any better than the one that vicki had.

Maybe tamra should ask her psychic when she and Eddie will be getting a divorce. I'm not a psychic but i do predict T & E will be divorced in a couple of years. Eddie is very wise not to have children with this shrew

[Lyra Angelica]

Wait, I thought Tamra was a going to be a good christian woman.  What is she doing with a psychic?

[tabloidlover]

My guess?  She hasn't gotten far enough in Bible for Dummies to find that section....

[chenoa333]

I doubt tamra has a chapter in "bibles for dummies" dedicated to hypocrisy.

[chenoa333]

Scott Cruz - psychic medium. Thats his name and that's his game! I respectfully take back my comment regarding Scott being very good looking. He's not. But he was many months ago when Tammy first posted his info on her facebook page. Oh well, you be the "judge"!

[Snarky McSnarky]

Apparently, he predicted the outcome of Tamra's court date with Simon.  I wonder if he predicted Tamra's son would be arrested for domestic violence, too.

I wonder if he got his start with "Madam Cleo"?

[Ubiquitous]

It appears that Jim's nasty statement to Meghan was just the work of Bravo editing monkeys. Oh well.

Wait, why does Tamra have a psychic but was mocking the one Vickie hired?

[lasandi]

Will someone please tell this Megan woman if she wants to be a mother so bad, just have her own kids. Did u hear her say she can't correct all of the parenting mistakes that were made in the last 17 years? If she was trying to throw shade at her husband, she was also throwing shade at the girl's mother who is now deceased. Why doesn't Megan realize that that 17 year old, soon to be 18 years old, has already been raised. She can't come in on the back end and usurp her parents. For the love of all that is holy, STFU Megan. And that can't be said enough!

[turbogirlnyc]

So a psychic says Brooks' cancer story is fake? Not that I put it past the man but I thought the accusation would come from a more reliable source.

Jimmy is weird. He doesn't make eye contact with Meghan during their discussion. Maybe it's the camera angle?

Meghan can lose me with the head bands already.

Um, if your fingers are greasy or whatever from your hamburger and fries, then pick up your damn napkin and wipe them off instead of sticking every finger in your mouth and make a smacking noise.  God.  He's then going to take the 'pen' and sign the check and possibly shake someone's hand.  Ewwwww. 

 

Note to Meghan - I'm certainly not crazy about you but get out of this marriage while you can.  This guy is a jerk.  Big time.

I'm not sure which amused me more, Tamra's gullibility or Eddie totally calling out this psychic b.s

ITA, that's such a nasty habit. This is why you can't eat anything from a bowl at a party...you never know... Watching this scene makes my OCD kick in to overdrive! Yuck.

It doesn't matter that he's a jerk, his marriage is making things happen for her and until he is no longer useful they will be together.

So Meghan essentially agrees with Vicki's assessment of Hayley and complains about being just a babysitter?  It seems to me Jim has been the primary care parent for Hayley and maybe needs to be listening instead of talking about raising Hayley.  Nice how Meghan used Vicki to get her concerns about Hayley out there.  Jim Edmonds is truly a slob.  If I were his second wife I would not let his parenting style be the primary in raising the two "little ones".

[Bronzedog]

I loved Shannon and David's talk with their twins. D & S are going on about rolling the house and trying to get both of the girls to say they'd never do it again, and, you can see both of the girls squirming and thinking "I'm so going to do that again. I might go do it again as soon as I get out of this room."

[islandgal140]

Because .. wait for it... Tamara's is the real deal. Everything he says comes true. LOL! This betta not be the extent of it and what these dingbats consider definitive proof of Brooks not having cancer. 

 

On the one hand I feel bad that the Beador girls have their business put on front street, on the other, I like that Shannon is giving us more real aspects of her life which includes parenting her children which harkens back to the first few seasons of the show. 

 

Meghan and Jimmy - feel like I am watching an uncle take out his niece for a birthday lunch. Their chemistry is into the negative numbers.

Do 10 year old girls really act like that? Or just the ones whose parents put their marital problems on TV?

I only have boys and my oldest is not yet 10 but holy shit. The attitude on those girls, lack of respect (and watch out

Shannon, the one on crutches has your number when it comes to your drinking habits), sense of entitlement, etc I would not be sitting my ass in that chair watching that behavior. No way!

[bosawks]

Given that tv psychics apparently have a penchant for discussing bowel obstructions, I wonder if Tam's psychic will comment on the giant stick up Heather's butt.

 

Terry?

[Former Nun]

Wait, I thought Tamra was a going to be a good christian woman.  What is she doing with a psychic?

 

 

Perhaps he's a bible-based Christian psychic.   People can find almost any justifications they need in the bible.

[ScoobieDoobs]

Yech, asshole Jimmy is a repulsive pig.  That's it.

[ScoobieDoobs]

Man, Shannon's twin brats are 2 freakin' entitled little brats.  Bad enough Shannon, you're embarrassing these kids by showing off your shit marriage to the world.  Now you're showing these brats acting like little assholes to the world.  Nice, smart move, Shannon. 

[Bronzedog]

I don't think I'd ever believe someone didn't have cancer because a psychic said it might not be true. Or, the psychic "couldn't see it." Unless, of course, it was Dionne Warwick's psychic. Then I'd totally believe it.

[motorcitymom65]

So Shannon will pee if she runs. It just keeps getting better and better with her.

[cherry slushie]

I'm cracking up at the psychic pointing out personal things about Meghan, Heather and Brooks.  Like Tamra didn't fill him in on all this shit prior to filming?  Tamra is stirring her cauldron again, using the psychic to bring the Brooks lying about cancer rumor to a rolling boil.

 

On another note, I'm wishing/hoping someone can make an animated GIF out of Jim sucking the burger juices of disdain and disinterest off of each finger.

[ivygirl]

Cancer juicing: the "shock" heard round the world :)

Oooohhh yeah. Tamra doesn't stir the pot. Not at all.

[ScoobieDoobs]

Um, did this ep end weird or what?  I'm still scratching my head over how Vicks was behaving.  WTF?

[TexasGal]

Shannon and David disciplining the twins was so bad. I can't imagine talking to my parents like that now, let alone when I was 10 (going on 40). Of course, it didn't help after David wove tales of his additional expoits beyond toilet papering.

Enough with the psychic BS storylines. I wonder what he would have said about Meghan if she hadn't been there.

Vicki screeching and Shannon sobbing in the restaurant. Help us Jesus. Make it stop!

[missy jo]

OK I know this was the possible (not)cancer reveal, but line of the night goes to Stella:

 

"You don't understand the 10-year-old life."

[Thumper]

Um, did this ep end weird or what?  I'm still scratching my head over how Vicks was behaving.  WTF?

Agree. I was in and out on that scene, but I could not figure out how Vicki went so ballistic so quickly, especially since she and Shannon are (supposedly) so close. What did I miss?

[ScoobieDoobs]

OK, Shannon keeps blaming Meghan for the psychic bullshit, but Tams is the one who started all this nonsense with the psychic.  Hey, I'm all for outing Brooksie if he's faking cancer, but this is just really, really dumb.  Seriously, this is the best you can throw at us, Satan Andy?  Dumb.

[charmed1]

Nip it in the bud now, Shannon because if not, two words...Alexa and Raquel.

Wait a minute. I distinctly heard Vicki say that Brooks' cancer returned in 2012. Brooks said it returned 2013.

[ivygirl]

Enough with the psychic BS storylines. I wonder what he would have said about Meghan if she hadn't been there.

"I predict that one day, she, too, will be 50, and will consequently be age-shamed by her stepdaughter." Edited August 18, 2015 by ivygirl

[Chicklet]

 

I think Vicki saw it coming and wasn't ready to deal with it unless it was on her terms.

If only Vicki had spoken to a psychic.....

And really that ending was stupid, and Shannon honey you never heard of "kill the messenger"? 

[turbogirlnyc]

Vicki had a very good idea what it was. Totally.

I'm starting to believe Meghan is being set up as the new shit-stirrer. Who could be that damn stupid? That was a dumb ass move, even for Meghan.

[Straycat80]

I don't know why everyone is freaking out about Brooke's drinking and eating sugar. I've known a lot of people battling cancer and they eat and drink what they want. So Tamra's psychic feels Brookes doesn't have cancer and Brooks wasn't even there. Sounds wishy-washy to me.

Geez Shannon keep your big mouth shut! And Tamra's the pot stirrer?

[jnymph]

Note to the Beadors;

"Get your kids off TV,idiots !!!"

I got the feeling Jim not only doesn't care about Meghan, but Hailey either. Pathetic.

[Alonzo Mosely FBI]

Shannon. Shannon. Shannon. Can't win.

Damned if you do tell her (Vicki makes a scene)

Damned if you don't tell her (if Vicki found out later that Shannon knew and didn't fill her in, Vicki would go ballistic that Shannon DIDNT tell her asap)....

[missy jo]

How come nobody said to the psychic, "So he's cured!" That's what my first thought would have been, i.e. "the cancer is gone." It's good news, right?

[BogoGog24]

"I don't want to ruin Brooks's birthday by saying anything…." Then keep your mouth shut Shannon!

[ScoobieDoobs]

Hey, did anyone notice the decor in Shannon's fancy-shmancy joint while those 2 little freakin' brats were mouthing off to her & wimpy David?  Sheesh, they're rich!  Nah, those brats are never gonna end up like Lynne's daughters cuz these little brats are rich.  Funny how the brats have Shannon's number down pretty good -- even at 10.  They know she drinks like a fish.

[islandgal140]

I've never heard of a psychic 'reading' people that weren't even there and that he has never met. Does he send them a bill later? It couldn't possibly be that Tamra during one of their 2-3 times a week skype convos running her big restalyne filled, nude be-lipsticked lips can it? Not Tamra who is the picture of discretion and tact and would never breach a confidence. No sireee.  And yes Tamra, lets not bring this up to Vicki, only tape it and air it on a TV show. Bitch you ain't new here. It seems like the only thing the Bible for Dummies has taught her is to couch everything with faux concern like that negates her soulless succubus shit stirring ways. Plus, I love how she is so damn outraged that Shannon called her what she is. 

 

I've been saying since last week that all this 'Brooks doesn't have cancer' mess better not be predicated on some charlatan's psychic visions and here we are. WTF?!?! How stupid are these people. Heather - I thought better of you. Mensa scholar, nope but I thought you had more sense than this. If he is faking he should be outed but not on this flimsy ass mess, but how wishy washy was that so called 'reading.' He might, but I am not guru/Gandhi/Cancer specialist so he might not. GTFO with this BS. Did he foretell of Tamra's lil rat boy gnawing on jail bars for domestic violence?

 

I didn't think Brooks or Vicki was saying that his medical records were in that color coded binder Vicki was talking about. I just thought it was Brooks own personal notes he took (or didn't) at the various doctors he has visited so that Vicki can pretend she is heavily involved in his treatment. 

 

Vicki will always be Vicki. I was struck that she said during the episode that she leaned on Brooks and needed for support yet she is barely there for his supposed cancer. 

 

Sounds like Shannon gave Brooks quite the medical connect. However, I think even assuming that Brooks isn't lying and he does have active cancer, he isn't obliged to visit any doctor or follow what is considered the go-to course of treatment (chemo), no matter how prestigious the doctor or institution.  It is nice of Shannon to do such of thing but still Brooks doesn't have to go to anyone everyone suggests. 

 

Psychic Scott said Meg would have one child. Like wow predicting a young woman barely out of 20s would have a child is the shot heard around the uterus. The real question is with who.

 

And because it can't be said enough - SHUT UP MEG!! She has the husband and marriage she deserves.

 

Shannon should not have said shit at that dinner.

"I don't want to ruin Brooks's birthday by saying anything…." Then keep your mouth shut Shannon!

She was all over the place. She's always all over the place! I need to tell you something. Then....It's not my intention to say anything; In one TH - Does Brooks have his paperwork, or not?...In the next TH - How dare anyone question Brooks' diagnosis - the man is ill! On and on. Is it the Gray Goose? Just her personality? A pot-stirring strategy?

[nexxie]

Vicki and Brooks are off again, according to eonline - why, I wonder.

I don't know why everyone is freaking out about Brooke's drinking and eating sugar. I've known a lot of people battling cancer and they eat and drink what they want. So Tamra's psychic feels Brookes doesn't have cancer and Brooks wasn't even there. Sounds wishy-washy to me.

Geez Shannon keep your big mouth shut! And Tamra's the pot stirrer?

Supposedly cancer grows easier in an acidic environment, which sugar creates in the body.

[charmed1]

I'm inclined to believe there was some producer saying, "Shannon honey, we need you to confront Vicki about Brooks not having cancer tonight." I believe her when she said she really didn't want to say anything.

[Pepperminty]

Why couldn't shannon keep her mouth shut? I guess she thought Vicki might be upset later if she didn't say anything?

 

I can't wait to see Vicki get verbally smacked by Meghan next week, that bitch has it coming. Wow I just can't stand Vicki's hypocrisy and screeching.

 

Meghan, if you read this, please leave this Jimmy character. He is a LOSER. You could do so much better. He has the personality of cardboard and is a huge dud. No money is worth being a babysitter for some loser's kid.

 

Um, so obvious that the psychic knew everything from Tamra??

Edited August 18, 2015 by Pepperminty

[PhilMarlowe2]

I pretty much felt the subtext of the final scene was this -

 

Vicki: Don't bring this up on camera! If you need to tell me about it, do it in private. If you can't be around me and not say anything, then cancel filming. But if you're a good friend to me, don't bring up Brooks drama on camera.

 

I cannot believe Tamra is getting away with her new covert pot stirring. Did Tamra technically bring up what Scott said? No. But did she ask Shannon about her look of disdain when Brooks mentioned his new treatment? And did she do this in front of idiot Meghan? And did she feed the fire once Meghan brought the allegations out in the open? That woman is such a piece of work.

[chlban]

How come nobody said to the psychic, "So he's cured!" That's what my first thought would have been, i.e. "the cancer is gone." It's good news, right?

Because they all read the script? Seriously though, that's a very good point
