S09.E10: Black Out and Get Out

[OnceSane]

Quote

Bethenny and Ramona's fight reaches an explosive level; Carole shows Tinsley an available apartment; Luann and Tom host a final pre-wedding lunch with Dorinda and old friends; Carole serves as host of an art opening; Luann and Tom head to Palm Beach.

[OnceSane]

Talk about the show, not the posters on the forum. Period. End of sentence. Stop. Talking. About. Each. Other.

[KungFuBunny]

I hope Bethenny and Ramona do this on the stairway

[hoodooznoodooz]

How many marriage-related gatherings will they have had by the time the dust has cleared?

[Wendy]

LMAO!!!

F^&% my way to the top? I can't even f$% my way to the middle!!!

OMG, Ramona really is showing her ugly core, does she have a file on every single housewife? This is crazy.

[ticklemepink]

Bethenny gets ALL the gold stars for spreading her legs wide during that argument. 

Ramona is horrendous.

Holy crap! Ramona is crazy as hell!

[Wendy]

LMAO!!!

Ramona: "I tried to make up with her, I don't know what is wrong with her" 

Ramona is out of her f&*ing mind, is that is an apology then I will never want to receive one. 

I only hope that Ramona is watching this episode completely sober and with Avery just so she have someone help her understand why her behavior is so completely ridiculous. 

Bethenny's complaint was that Ramona saw her during the summer and never mentioned the "porno" movie (which BTW she must have watched, lol) but waited until cameras were rolling to conveniently bring up in front of everybody. Ramona took that and went to town, completely crazy. 

[mbaywife123]

How funny was Dorinda explaining the state she found Sonja in the chair passed out!

[bosawks]

I feel about Ramona the same way I feel about deviled ham.

I realize I should find it repellant but I just can't quit it!

[AnnaL]

oh, Ramona, that old trick of "I was drunk so I don't remember what I said" is not going to work. 

Bethenny got a massive contract with Beams so if the sale of her drinks are down it doesn't really matter, she gets paid to promote the alcohol line but most of her money was made in the first three years, in the meantime your Pinot Grigio is not even in production or available according to your own website. 

Bethenny pointed it correctly. Ramona is seething with jealousy but she covers it under the disguise of trying to be friendly, taking passive aggressive shots and pretending that she has your best interest at heart.  Those are the worse kind of friends. 

[mbaywife123]

What the hell, Ramona tore down lights and did damage to Dorinda's house.

NEVER invite that crazy bitch to ANYTHING again!

[Emmeline]

What the heck!

Sonja wears Dorinda's lingerie that her dead husband gave her.  A cherished thing!

Then Ramona decides to pull down some light fixtures and damages the walls in the guest room!

If Dorinda ever had another gathering for these women, she should be nominated for sainthood.

[QuinnM]

So this is the kind of moth that is just vacationing in Soho?  

Also I think this is still B recovering her health. That isn't just short hair that's unhealthy hair. She looks so much better now. 

[TexasGal]

Why are neither Zarin wearing wedding rings?

Ugh Ramona is the worst.

[Trooper York]

I have a question.

If there is a black out....will Dorinda ask him to hang up her coat?

I hate Adam and his dumb sexy salads. Gah!

No wonder Carole wants him out, so annoying!

It was nice to see Bobby looking well.

[poeticlicensed]

As much as I have Jill , she was dead on about Ramona. Ramona is miserable about the breakup of her marriage . Her whole I'm having the time of my life thing is just an act. And her misery comes out when she gets drunk, she gets nasty. 

[bosawks]

No matter how many scenes they use in an attempt to convince me that Tom is lifelike I still don't believe it.

However, Lu's dropped octave, breathy "wife" in the intro makes me giggle every week.

This nearly made me weep. I don't like the decor at Bluestone Manor, but it was Dorinda's home that she put her money, time, and heart into it. You don't disrespect peoples spaces like that. That was disgusting behavior and I'm sure that seeing Sonja wearing Dorinda's pajamas didn't help things. Are these two bitches Rick James?

Who fucking does the shit they did?

When Lu laughs at Tom's hall pass joke, that is not an amused laugh.

I think this is a more reasonable explanation for Ramona's strange behavior than Bethenny's "jealousy" excuse.

Ramona seems to have had some financial success.  She has however, lost her husband, is an empty nester and no longer works.  I don't think she is happy and seems lost.

If I was Carol, I don't know if I would want Tinsley in that building.  Adam was checking her out.  Although she doesn't seem his type.

[AnnaL]

Dorinda and Sonja both have used the word "resentful" to refer or try to describe Ramona's behavior towards Bethenny, why is that?

Maybe because Pinot Grigio got discontinued? maybe because she was so desperate to get a drink deal via Tipsy Girl and it didn't work? 

There is something definitely there, for Ramona to try to use a movie of 25 years ago that Bethenny herself has spoken many times before, Ramona came this season with an agenda to take Bethenny down and she has info on her that she thinks will bring her down. 

[ElDosEquis]

Ramona my be an idiot, but what a moron you'd have to be to stand there and listen to her rant.

Assholes.

One and all.

Jill was mostly right about Ramona.  But her delivery when she said, "Deflection. Her life is in such a mess that she wants everyone to be a mess (big, evil crocodile grin)", was just.......just.....lemme put it this way: 

There's fun, crazy bitchy (Sonja) and drunken, slurry bitchy (Dorinda) but Jill's kind of bitchy is just plain evil bitchy.

Anyone who would eat Adam's food is probably his type.

"Assistant Thing #2! Identify this dead bug in my 2-story closet! When you're done I'll insult your intelligence!"

This is why I couldn't care about Ramona's nuttiness. Until she trashed Dorinda's guest room. If I was Dorinda at this point I'd rip up the Bravo contract & run to the Berkshires forever. These crazy women will not be happy until Bluestone is a pile of dust.

And yes, Tom. We know you're easy to find. At the Regency. Being easy.

Probably makes the dressings with Astrolube or KY. 

The jelly, not the state.

[WireWrap]

Bethenny was upset at the way Ramona spoke to her?  So upset that she never wants to speak to her again....ever? Did Bethenny not hear herself going after Luann last season and she was sober when she did it! Bethenny was worse to Luann than Ramona was to her. Ramona was an ass and she was wrong to attack Bethenny but Bethenny was far uglier to Luann, get a grip Bethenny.

[tribeca]

Romona was relentless but I did wonder if any of what she said was true.  Maybe because I don't like Beth and have always thought she was a user.

Yes, precisely. I was kind of open to it, but it only took about 1 minute for me to realize that, nope, still don't miss Jill. Keep her. 

Great to see Bobby healthy and happy though. Always a good guy.

ADAM PLEASE, stop it with the salads.

[KungFuBunny]

The clip they showed of the room Ramona slept in.

I could have sworn they showed one corner towards the ceiling with what looked like ripped wallpaper or paint.

Ramona literally went BSC - she turn into a freaking bat and flew up and shit in the ceiling corner to sleep

Is it possible that I am ever more mad at this than that verbal diarrhea against Bethenny? 

What was she trying to do with the light fixtures? why did she need to bring them down? I just can't with Ramona. 

That flippant attitude when Dorinda mentioned it to her is so despicable and the way she changed the subject was so dismissive. 

She should have apologized to Dorinda, explain herself and beg Dorinda to please send her the bills so she could take care of it and then continue apologizing. I can't even imagine the fit Ramona would throw if anybody goes to her Hamptons house and does the kind of damage she did. 

If I was Dorinda I definitely would never invite Ramona again, who could blame her?

Dorinda needs to send Ramona the repair bill when the room is fixed.

Ramona is nuts and I think she struggles with identity. Even if she knew Mario messed around I think she believed the 2nd half of her life was going to be a lot different - and not alone. I think Luann has the same problem & that's why she's hell-bent on this disaster of a marriage.

However regarding Bethenny I think Ramona's resentment might be due to 1) B not being who she presents herself as (being raised by wolves in poverty and having made a questionable movie years ago and never being called on either) and 2) Bethenny returning to the show after quitting, not showing anything about her personal life and still getting another show of her own from Bravo.

I'm not a Ramona fan but if I had to hold an apple next to someone for whom the rules are clearly different I'd be irritated.

[KikiBda]

Sonja is a bitch to Tinsley.

I thought that Ramona was pretty mean, but, she also was quite correct at the art gallery when she said that Bethenny has two sets of rules.  Your post is a perfect example of that.

Ramona was absolutely hammered at Dorinda's - she was talking in circles and saying a lot of non-sensical stuff.  I don't usually say this, but I give Bethenny credit for remaining calm and not screaming at Ramona (for the most part).  Bethenny has learned her lesson on how she appears on screen when she behaves that way.  I think that Bethenny is either getting some good counseling/therapy, or she is getting some stern advice from a PR person (or, perhaps, her lawyer - telling her to tone down the anger and bitchiness because it could work against her).

Having watched tons of people do some vile shit like that?

I always wonder why people go after weird shit in the room.....I wonder what the meaning behind pulling down the lights was all about?

[Duke2801]

I thought it was interesting that Lu used the word "affair" to describe the situation with Tom that almost ended the engagement. I thought it was just a one-night drunken indiscretion? Hmmmm. 

Ramona. No words. She's a living, breathing definition of The Worst. I do not understand her tearing down lighting fixtures?? Dorinda was definitely nicer about it than I would have been! 

Nice to see Bobby Z. Despite his questionable taste in wives, I always liked him. Actually compared to Ramona and Bethenny 2.0, Jill doesn't seem quite so bad now. 

[zoeysmom]

Ramona describes how she left Dorinda's guest room fine and even made the bed:  http://www.bravotv.com/the-real-housewives-of-new-york-city/season-9/blogs/ramona-singer/ramona-singer-i-have-no-reason-to

[AttackTurtle]

 Bethenney's boyfriend in season one was rich and she was selling cupcakes at Whole Foods.  I've not seen any evidence that she slept her way to the top.  She capitalized off of her reality tv exposure and has always owned it.  I'm super disappointed in Ramona b/c she cracks me up, but she hit way below the belt.  Her comment to Carole was nasty and her destruction of Dorinda's property was really a whole new level of crappy behavior.  Sonya wearing Dorinda's lingerie pretty awful too.

She said the next day and once this season that if someone spoke to her the way she spoke to Luann she would never speak to them again. So I don't think Bethenny excuses the behavior nor does she think she herself should be excused.

Jill actually makes me uncomfortable. Her level of crazy was never harmless or kind of entertaining like Ramona's. When she's upset, she wants your life to burn.
