S11.E18: Vicious Lies And Broken Ties

[Tara Ariano]

Quote

The women gather at Shannon's new house for a carb-loaded affair to celebrate Tamra's victory at the fitness competition; Tamra, Heather and Shannon decide to confront Vicki about her vicious rumors.

[itsadryheat]

Scene: Brianna & overly involved icky touring renovations in Brianna’s house

overly involved icky:  blah, blah, do this, blah, blah, do this, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, do this, do this, do this, do this

Brianna: This is not the energy I want in this home.  

overly involved icky: I know, we have to stage it or sumthin’

What pharmaceuticals would you need to share space with, even briefly, with overly involved icky?

At least I have the remote....

[mbaywife123]

Tamra " I just feel like I have the perfect black dress for these shoes , you think so right?"

Eddie " I dunno, you better ask the gay guy"

Love me some Eddie tonight!

[bosawks]

I'm with David.  Can I just get a beer?!?!

[Straycat80]

This was a typical end of season party, same scenario that ends all housewives shows. Yelling, insulting, apologies, apologies not accepted,  big fight. *yawn*

[Bronzedog]

I was wondering why Brianna went to the party with Vicki when Vicki had a date, and, why Vicki was leaving without her date, but, I guess it was to set up the last scene.  And then she left without her date.  

[100PercentPain]

All I've got to say is this:

 

The reunion preview, where Vicki yells at someone to "GET OFF (her) SHOW"... y'all. I laughed out loud. Please let that be the last straw for Andy Cohen. She and Brianna both need to be off my TV forever. For all her tearful "apologies", she's still insisting she hasn't done anything wrong. Sorry, Vicks, but you can't be sorry if you don't think you've done anything.

I had the same reaction.....MY show? Idiot.

[Ubiquitous]

Random thoughts I could remember:

• I laughed at Meghan talking about her baby being like some little creature, just as a couple cartoons for the Trolls movie ambled across the bottem of the screen.
• I think I hurt my eyes hearing Vicki claim she's been doing nothing all season but saying "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!". Bitch, puhlease!
• I thought we already knew the sex of Meghan's baby? I swear they discussed it earlier. I hate those things!
• Vicki's "apology" card. All about her!
• Vicki's fake laughing way too hard about the "liar" tshirt gift.
• Did anyone get the feeling this was Kelly and Vicki's "goodbye"?
• I laughed at the news about Kelly not attending her anger management classes.

[Lucelu]

so, this was painful.

And somehow I was on Tamra's side. HTF did that happen? 

I only want to see Kelly with a ball gag fastened. I know these women on these shows are vulgar but she just takes it to a new level. 

[ticklemepink]

Man, EFF Vicki. She is the complete worst.

[Sai]

There were some really funny scenes in the beginning of the show.  Both Eddie and David, on separate occasions, joking about being gay.  Then when Heather had the loose hair and Tamra pulled it off and said it came from Heather's chin.  Those were some light hearted  and funny moments.  My friend and I do that also.  Someone spread a vicious rumor about us and it was so ridiculous that we joke about it all the time now.

Meghan looked terrible at the party.  Part of her hair in a bun right on top of her head, flowered dress with fishnet stockings and giant chunky necklace.  Waaaay to busy.  Cripes.  Her baby cake idea was really cool though.

My most disappointing moment of the night was when the woman were screeching and the camera didn't show Eddie eating.  They flashed to him quickly but he wasn't eating when all the arguing was going down.  Bummer!  

Oh, Just wanted to add how sad it is that Brianna has been diagnosed with Lupus.  That sucks!

I noticed she made a vulgar comment whilst slapping her husband's butt.

[dosodog]

That was ugly.  All the way around.  Except for Meghan.  Who has now moved into "Housewife I like " category.  Otherwise I think they were all horrible.  Tamra, Heather and Shannon were spoiled mean girls.  Hateful, spiteful and high up on horses.  Vicki and Kelly were  Vicki and Kelly.  That says it all.

Oy.  The facial hair.  Get.  Over.  It. Stop being so freaking defensive or get your hairy chin to the waxologist pronto.  You can afford it.  I just have no patience for the pearl clutching over facial hair.

She can leave the show and improve it by a gazillion percent. I think she crossed the line into grifterdom, now when she is on it is like some horrible late night investment scam informercial.

[nexxie]

Love the view from Shannon's house - and mmmm, Krispy Kremes!

[JennyMominFL]

Does Tamra not know that "elephant in the room" is an expression? Because when Kelly said it, Tamra said she was calling someone fat.

I don't know, she had the ugliest hair ever at that party. I think the high horses were legit tho. Kelly will often go low with some kind of physical insult. The chin hair wasn't the first time. She just does it to be nasty and play on their insecurities. Imagine her reaction if they did that to her? 

[Straycat80]

I think they need to reboot the cast on this show. Everyone hates Vicki and Kelly. I don't know how many times these women will sort of forgive Vicki like they did this season but I don't think they will again. She needs to go.

Kelly was too crude or something, she never fit in. Megan sounds like she's done. 

I'm sorry Brianna has Lupus but she brings nothing to this show. 

I wanted to see Heathers house too. So this was a very lackluster season for me. Disappointed because the reason I started watching real housewives shows was this one and season one was so fun. How low they have fallen! 

[Bronzedog]

I'm pretty sure Vicki referred to the show as "hers" at the last reunion, too.

[Lucelu]

Brianna has Lupus... maybe she will be too stressed out to do this show then. Or maybe she will quit her ER job to do the show instead?  Her husband is "stuck" in OK? I think he is "stationed" in OK.

[mbaywife123]

For one I agree with Vicki, it is time for her to move on. Be gone from this show and take Kelly with you!

[Marley]

Vicki is seriously disgusting. How she kept saying she is worried about Shannon was gross and pathetic. She is always playing the victim. I just can't with her anymore.

[bosawks]

Meghan's necklace looked like a solar system mobile my brother had when we were kids.

[Ubiquitous]

Kelly asking if her ugly black dress made her husband want to "motorboat" her. Yuck.

[Bronzedog]

I really, really, really want a donut now.  Thanks, bitches.

[annewithaneee]

Wow, that was dull. Personally, I think firing the fuck out of Heather takes priority over getting rid of Vicki. Vicki's at least occasionally fun to (hate-)watch. She lacks basic human self-control, so she's not constantly self-editing like Heather. Heather is joyless, humorless, smug, and drunk on her own power. She's not actually intelligent, but her castmates are all so dull/dim I doubt she'll ever be taken down. Her only scene types seem to be:

- Smugly trying to act all self-deprecating about her wealth and the mall house she's building

- Shamelessly and endlessly pimping her own products, which are as low-rent and lame as any other Housewife

- Terry's leather-jacketed ass mugging at the camera every chance he gets

- Acting like an evil nanny at every group gathering, and throwing out ridiculously shitty orders and snipes that she never seems to get satisfyingly called on

I'm honestly, truly out next season until I start seeing word/recaps that it's Heather's season to get dragged. The OC well has run dry for me.

Haha......I just ate one.  My husband brought me a donut on Friday and I just ate it now.  It was pretty stale and gross.  I ate it anyway.  I don't even like donuts, lol.

[trimthatfat]

Very unfortunate update about Briana at the end. I gasped.

I laughed when Vicki said she didn't get why Tamra invited her if she wasn't going to talk to her. It's like Vicki forgot that every season has a finale party and the housewives are expected to attend. In the real world, there's no way Kelly would have been allowed on the property.

Oh no I missed it! I always accidentally zone out during the updates. What happened with Briana?

[AttackTurtle]

I would be curious to see Kelly return.   I think Megan's a goner and fingers crossed this is it for a Vicki.  

Her faux concern for Shannon was to transparently b.s...  She was just told to knock it off with regard to comments regarding Shannon and it had zero effect on her.

 

i honestly think Brianna is worried that her Mom's days our numbered on the show...thus Brianna's days could be numbered too.  I think Brianna wants to keep a check.  Tamara & Shannon aren't going anywhere and if Tamara won't take Vicki back, Vicki's screwed.

Generally, when you voluntarily sign up for the military , you exchange your work and service for pay and some damn good perks.  Ryan signed on, therefore he is not stuck.  He is fulfilling a mutually beneficial contract. He's not stuck there, he's probably enjoying hanging out with his peers.   Fuck these lame people from the Midwest who think they are too sophisticated for Oklahoma.  Fucking Vicki is the very walking definition of a closed minded rube.  Who wears stupidly designed dresses, and walks like Caitlyn Jenner in her first pair of heels.  Caitlyn got the hang pretty quickly, and Vicki still stumbles around like a drunken bear all these years later.

i am sorry , but whoever styled Megan needs their prescription changed immediately.  She looked like a complete idiot.   And did K Dudd countour her boobs?  Freaking whack adobo.

that cape dress was the most  flattering thing I saw all season on Shannon.

im sorry to hear about Briannas illness.  I'm thinking that's why she sucked it up and came back.  She probably won't be able to work part time even for awhile.  However, the stress of dealing with Vicki has to be hard on her.   On the other hand, she buys a new house and hires an interior designer, so she can't be hurting that badly financially.     But fuck Vicki for taking advantage of her.

Meghan's hair is always awful.  She really needs to find a top notch, extremely skilled hairdresser and say, "Fix me!"  She's a cute girl, but that hair is a hot mess. I pray to the Bravo gods that this is Icki's last season.  She is beyond repulsive and a POS pussy who has to bring her daughter to the party to be her body guard.  I thought Tamra looked old tonight.  And I thought Loubitan (sp?) shoes always had red soles?  As for the baby cake idea, the Duggars did that on Good Morning America (or some other morning TV show) 8 or 10 babies ago.  Lol

[Bluegirl547]

I'm not sure I understand Shannon's end game here. It's public record that David was arrested and plead guilty for battery or something similar. It would make more sense to admit it, say it was a dark time (or not as serious as the charges imply), and that they've worked through it. I get that she wants to keep it off the show, but you have to know that EVERYTHING is going to come out when you're putting your life out there on national television.

[nexxie]

For those of you who think Vicki likely suffers from narcissistic personality disorder (I think so), how much do you think she understands? I've read that the hallmark ego preservation tactics (and neural pathways) are so entrenched that those with npd really don't get what they've done to make others walk away. I'm never sure how much they understand, but it sure is sad for all involved!

[Cherrio]

I was waiting for Vicki to compare herself to Jesus again.

Bet she has a total meltdown and someone finds her crammed into the manger scene in front of a church.

I am out if she comes back. I should of been out this season.

My hope is that she is convicted of some kind of crime involving her business. The closet women's prison is CCW. She will be hanging out with the  Manson women and Betty Broderick.   Now, she was a real housewife !

[cuphead]

I have to say, I thought Megan came off pretty poorly last season. This year?  She's an absolute joy to watch.  The pregnancy has given her a loving, happy, maternal glow and it's so nice to see her basking in the experience.  It really shines through, especially when she's eating!

[notnowimbusy]

Haven't seen it yet out on West Coast, but Tamra has been gunning as the OG for some time now.  I think she figured the Brooks thing would kick her up to first place and when that didn't happen she had to go another route.  She enlisted Heather, Shannon and Meghan.  Tamra  lucked out with Kelly coming in and becoming Vicki's friend.   It's going to be hard to Andy not to let Vicki go (of HER show), but if the other women refuse to film with her, what else can he do.

I thought it looked like a bunch of Christmas ornaments that were spray painted black and strung together.  I don't know where her style sense went, but that whole outfit was just bad....granny print body-con dress, fishnet stockings, huge, fugly necklace and a stupid half-bun on top of her head.  Usually, I think Meghan looks pretty good (I even liked her headbands last season), but that outfit looked like she got dressed in the dark!

I laughed at that, too, except I laughed because I thought that Vicki was the one who called Tamra and begged to come to the party asked Tamra if it was okay if she came to the party.  I guess she forgot about that phone call, just like she's forgotten about how horrible she's been all season.

Maybe Shannon just thought it was horrible for Vicki to speak of it on the show and cause her children to have to think about it again (or for the first time if they didn't know).

[mbaywife123]

Meghan's party look WAS all kinds of bad.

Fishnets, 70,s disco shoes, grandmas tablecloth as a dress, 2 broke girls necklace topped by a head bun, WTH?

Vicki kept saying that to anyone who would speak with her, just so that she could spread more rumors about Shannon and David.  She was literally dying for Tamra to ask "Why are you so worried for Shannon?"...so glad Tamra didn't take the bait.

But, I would bet anything that Andy will be bringing it up at the Reunion.  Vicki knows how to play the game.  Say something enough on the show, and if it isn't addressed then, it will definitely be addressed by Andy.

[chick binewski]

Callow? Can we send Meghan a dictionary or is there another meaning I'm not aware of? She planned her exit strategy fairly early. I'm ok with that because I think last season she showed her true colors & this season was a conscious effort at a redemption tour

Mia is exhausting.

And Tamra once again putting christian behavior to great use by giving everyone the most passive-aggressive t-shirts ever.

I thought Tamra said Louboutin, too, but what she actually said was "Louis Vuitton".  And, yes, Louboutin's always have red soles (and Tamra has a few pairs).

[Sai]

How cool was it when Vicki was planning her escape and Heather says all calmly "don't move".  Ha!!

She, Shannon, has addressed it and said that David never laid a hand on her, never hit. She also said that they had moved on and things were better. When Vicki told Kelly, she used it as her reason for being "terrified" of David after the 70's party fight, the one where she said that she wanted to "slap" David but was "afraid her would slap her back", she didn't say it because she was "worried/afraid" for Shannon, it was a typical Vicki move. Use private secrets shared with her, add a nasty twist/lie just to make herself look like the victim.

[Rosiejuliemom]

Honestly, at this point, I really want Shannon, Tamra, and Heather to take a long walk off a short pier. I don't like Vicki or Kelly, but I dislike that coven more.
