I for one am cheering for Erika on DWTS because if she wins she gives her partner her Lamborghini - not a bad payday a quarter of a million dollar car. I find RInna's attempts at making her dog relevant, lacking-can't anyone have a moment without Rinna trying to compete?, I don't watch DWTS. I don't want Erica to win and yes it is a case of BEC (bitch eating crackers) but if she does I'm happy for her partner. Wouldn't he have to pay a gift tax on that?

This must be Erika's great sense of humor that I keep hearing about. Eileen uses a figure of speech to make a point and Erika starts yelling "don't talk about my kid" ... even though Eileen wasn't talking about that kid in anything remotely approaching a literal sense. Not to mention, no one better talk about Erika's kid but she can "talk about" Jagger and Phoenix on Twitter? I actually think Eileen was (shockingly, but consistent with her newfound sanity where Lisa is concerned) defending Dorit and pointing out that PantyGate didn't constitute some horrific transgression. I also find it rich that Erika was insisting "I don't have to forgive anything" when she has stated multiple times that the issue was dead and resolved. I'm waiting to see if PK revives the matter in his quest for a diamond but Eileen's blog and the diction in the preview footage suggest to me that Erika gave the old horse CPR in order to resurrect it after claiming the conflict was finished. 12 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/54992-s07e15-hong-kong-fireworks/page/13/#findComment-3099192

Our friends are like that,” Dorit explains. “I like to joke and have fun and particularly with a topic that might be sensitive, making it lighthearted, it’s always a nicer way, an easier way, for me to not feel this tension. There were jokes along the way but I thought everyone in the conversation understood that they were jokes.” What a bullshitter. She denies the claims but maintains the comments were all in good fun?

Vegetarians get it from meat-eaters as well. This theory can be tested by going to a party and being unable to eat a particular dish because it has meat in it. Conversation will immediately turn to into the following." "How long?" "Why? "Have you ever eaten x,y,z?" "Do you eat chicken?" "Fish?" Eggs?" "Milk?" "But how do you get your protein!?!?" "What do you eat?" "But, again, how do you know you're getting enough protein?" "I love raw streak!" If you play your cards wisely, you can avoid Dr. Web MD, who will order you to go get a,b, and c tested. I've had this conversation roughly 1,000 times, and it's always exactly the same. This will then come up at every other meal you share with this group, and contain amusing asides about what you can't eat, and hilarious mentions of tofu. Someone inevitably will start with "The history of man..but look at our teeth!" All while you sit silently bored because you hear it every day. And Thanksgiving is definitely the best time to have this conversation, everyone brings all their best jokes and unneeded defenses. Anyways, carnivores that hate vegetarians- take solace in the fact that, we too, get ambushed for our dietary choices. Commenting on someone's diet seems to be a universal human trick. The reaction I get from drinking a soda at work is akin to the reaction I'd expect if I pulled out Rinna's pill bag, liquefied them all, and injected them into my arm. But alas, I'm a rebel who keeps drinking soda. My theory is- if you aren't paying my medical bills, I don't care what you think about what I choose to consume. Right there with ya!

I could totally understand how Erika could be freaking out and would not let a snide comment about "your kid being killed" slide in any way. She really reacted which I think is significant. Normally when she is pissed she takes a beat. Then she comes out strong. Look at how she dealt with vajayjaygate. In this case she was off the charts from the get go.

If my suspicion is correct the climate of fear was such that Erika was extremely touchy about it. I don't think she would have reacted the same way if Eileen snarked that Tom would kick the bucket. She would probably just say "Cool. Time to cash out." I mean I know she must love Tom but he is up there so it is a little different.

As far as Housewives offenses go, it doesn't seem that huge a deal to me. It's not like she's hiding someone's crutches from them, or screaming "You have no idea what she's done to me!" at the top of her lungs, or bringing up tabloid rumors of adultery in front of the others' young daughters.

So there had to be something "real" going on not your normal Housewives bullshit where they are passing tabloids around or talking about her cooch. I really like Eileen but she screwed the pooch so bad this time that Lisa Vanderpump is going to lead a protest outside her house or something. This was filmed in mid October. Eileen didn't say anything at all about "your kid being killed" in general, which is substantively different than the relatively common (at least to me) figure of speech "it's not like she killed your child." Apples and spaceships as CR would say. Then she doubles down and starts shrieking "shut the fuck up" even after it's been clarified that, no, no one was talking about her kid in a literal sense. Sounds like the dumb aggression that inspired the Habitat for Humanity yelling and hands-in-face display. My subjective opinion, of course. 11 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/54992-s07e15-hong-kong-fireworks/page/13/#findComment-3101703
Snappy March 21, 2017 Share March 21, 2017 Watching Erika is like watching a tennis match; back and forth, one extreme to another. Just when I start liking her, she blows it and starts acting like a big jerk. Dorit may not be Erika's cup of tea, but her behavior is akin to perpetually pms'ing. Erika does not remind me of someone who is incapable of speaking up when something bothers her. Why didn't she say something calmly when Dorit offended her. If she said "You may not realize how your comments make me feel, but...." and Dorit kept it up, I'd understand the snark, but if Erika never said anything, how was Dorit to know she was being bothersome. I don't believe clairvoyance is a skill she possesses. As for Erika's reaction in the preview, as a mom of children in the military and law enforcement, I can empathize, but it seems very convenient that NOW Erika cares about her son when she couldn't be bothered when he was growing up. Its a nice attempt to gain sympathy. Maybe I believe otherwise if Erika spent more time with her some than she does with Mikey and the guys. In addition, I did not hear Eileen say "Its not as if she killed HER child...", I believe she said, "Its not as if she killed A child...", and Eileen immediately apologized several times in a way that truly felt sincere. 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/54992-s07e15-hong-kong-fireworks/page/13/#findComment-3101705
lunastartron March 21, 2017 Share March 21, 2017 Eileen said "but she didn't kill your child." She also never says "I'm sorry," "I apologize," but rather "you're right," and "I didn't mean it that way." 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/54992-s07e15-hong-kong-fireworks/page/13/#findComment-3101718
Trooper York March 21, 2017 Share March 21, 2017 (edited) There were seventeen line of duty deaths of law enforcement officers in October of 2016. I think Erika does really care about her son. But I bet he doesn't want to be part of the show. That is understandable. Would you want to be part of the show if you were in law enforcement? I don't think her reaction was to gain sympathy. It was a lioness defending her cub. Even if he is a grown up cub. The fact that she likes to hang out with glam squad does not mean she doesn't love her son. Pinky spends all of her time with dogs, horses and swans. Does that mean she doesn't love her son? I mean that poor guy is another one whose life is always in danger. Just think of the STD's he is exposed to in SUR just by washing glasses.

At all. It was but Erica put herself in that situation and only has herself to blame. She signed the contract agreeing to participate expecting to give very little of herself to others, spew her version of bullshit in a take it or leave it fashion and gain fame. It doesn't work that way because these ladies can push buttons while they jockey for screen time and she knows exactly how these trips usually end up. She may say she never watched the show but she outs herself all the time. She knew what she was getting into. Although it was a poor choice of words to use Eileen was right it's not as if Dorit killed a kid, even if she used "your kid", which she didn't. Dorit just said cover your damn snatch and played the same game of "run and tell dat" that Erica engages in. They BOTH have traded digs at each other through out the season. BOTH of THEM. 2 hours ago, Snappy said: Watching Erika is like watching a tennis match; back and forth, one extreme to another.

In the clip that I watched on RHOBH facebook the words "I'm sorry" never came out of Eileen's mouth. She just said "I didn't mean it that way." Eileen was more perturbed that her words were taken the wrong way and her constant butting in on this issue backfired on her. That being said I have little sympathy for Erica. She slings out insults with the best of them not giving a fuck how they are received. She gets her emotional hot topic buttons accidentally or purposefully pushed guess what I too really don't give a fuck.

PumpkinPK March 22, 2017 Share March 22, 2017 Just caught the end of this ep while waiting for tonight's episode to start. At :59 min in, that "bring it" hand gesture that Ericka motioned to Dorite was really gross behavior, esp with her gaudy rings and talon nails. She was looking to fight. Not to mention that she stole that from the early 90s Mortal Kombat kiddie video game. Just ugly behavior. And I don't like Dorit, and don't think EJ saying she is BS is untrue. But that doesn't mean she needs to say it at all, let alone while they are on a beautiful boat ride in HK. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/54992-s07e15-hong-kong-fireworks/page/13/#findComment-3102185

It's the myriad of Sybil personas she gives everyone so they don't get close to the core of who she really is. No close friends other than paid sycophants creating the Empresses façade. Clown Squad is right on the money Zoeysmom. Everything in her life is done to hide behind and to keep people at a distance. I thinks that is why she likes flying in a private plane because then she doesn't have to deal with people. I think that is why her relationship to Tom works. They interact very little because his job is his first love and takes precedence. I don't think she does things out of kindness I think she does it because that's what "normal" people are suppose to do so she pretends to be kind. Something deep is wrong with that woman. Erica was the one that told Rinna. It is a repeat of last season when Erica that told Yolanda about Rinna then in San Diego denied and denied until she couldn't any longer. Why would she get so angry? If she didn't tell Rinna all she had to say was no. All that money, time and, paid attention and she looks ridiculous. I don't give a shit about what she goes through at night. Go cry behind the walls you put up. I liked Dorit's response to Erica's "bullshit" comment. "Halle-fucking-lujah" Dorit finally got an honest opinion out of that fake-assed Barbie. Hey Rinna I think you're protesting too much. So how much Xanax do you pop and what else do you like to take? Who brings out a bag of pills as a joke and then says she pops one into her smoothies? If someone who "jokes" like that starts acting out is it not reasonable to question if her behavior was induced just like one would about Kim? Eden is like a roach scurrying for a crevice. Eileen... who? LVP... yawn. Kyle...I think you should have gone with your friend Lisa. You didn't have to look or listen but just be there. I know im so behind, but I just LOVE this!
