S02.E10: Don't Cry Over Shattered Glass

The confrontation at Brandi's party seemed strangely flat. With the exception of LeeAnne's carefully timed glass throw, they all seemed weirdly enervated. Like they were sick of themselves and the manufactured drama. Nobody even blinked an eye when she shattered the glass, and she sat back down, disappointed.
 

Well, Stephanie reacted - her “Help me Jesus!” was kinda perfect.

This may not be a popular opinion but I would take a Lee Anne over a Cary any day of the week and twice on Sunday. 

I prefer straight up front, in your face crazy as opposed to stealthy, talk behind your back lying bitchiness.

[SunnyBeBe]

Perhaps, my expectations are too high, but, wouldn't the content of the dog food (nutritional value) would be more important that the way it looks?

I agree with this. I don't know what it is, but there is something endearing about LeeAnne's brand of crazy.

I feel the same way about Kim Richards.

I think it's a matter of managing each of them. LeeAnne doesn't like people not having her back or gossiping about her. You'd have to keep that in mind because she will flip out when that happens.

However, Cary is shady, which means you can never ever drop your guard around her. You could probably have a very good superficial relationship with her. You could never share anything personal with her ever, but you could go out to lunch and talk about movies, TV shows, and Oscar dresses.

Kameron is like The Countess, in that she's big on preaching etiquette, but the rules don't seem to apply to her.

Yup. She likes to have all the fun, but then wants Brandi - and Brandi alone - to take the heat.

Based on what they've shown throughout the season, I think D'Andra and her mother are stuck in a pattern of behavior that was established when D'Andra was a young girl.  It seems like every time we've seen D'Andra and her mother interact on screen, D'Andra's mannerisms become those of a less confident person.  I imagine this happens with many people who are raised by an over-bearing parent.  I wouldn't be surprised to find out of there was some degree of emotional abuse in their past.  

I'm not denying that D'Andra's mother may be overbearing, but D'Andra had no problem turning around and trying to dominate her step-son of a few years.  She was not his mother, and it wasn't her place to overstep and bark orders while his father was right there.  I think she's probably pretty similar to her mother, and there may be a reason that Dee doesn't quite trust D'Andra to turn over full operation.  There's probably a reason that the employees don't take her seriously.  One may assume that it's because D'Andra is a shrinking violet, but we've seen her in action. 

The first time D'Andra went to her mother and stated they needed to invest in more research and development, she presented no plan of action.  This time she came prepared and her mother was open and receptive, and even complimentary.  I'm actually shocked that an almost 50 y/o D'Andra finally figured this out.  

3 hours ago, SunnyBeBe said:

Oh, I see.  Her mom seems to berate her like a child.  And if D'Andra's been running a business for many years, she should be able to do it by now. That's sad.  It's great to have the support of a parent in running a business, but, if they hold you down, it's a negative.  I started my own business in 1998 with just myself and $1000.00!  I know.....I can't believe I was that crazy, but, it turned out okay and is still going.  Not having a safety net sometimes gives you motivation and confidence. You can't learn to do it, unless you do it.  

And yes, to me D'Andra and her mom need makeovers. They both are very dated and could look much younger with new looks. 

But the business is Dee's, not D'Andra's.  In almost every episode, she's managed to subtly (and not so subtly) slip in whiney complaints about her mother, and how unfair it is that princess has not been given everything carte blanche.   It reminds me of how Bernie Madoff's sons complained in a similar manner.  If you want control, start your own damned business.   I don't care what her mother told her to get her back in Dallas.  D'Andra agreed to the deal.  I imagine she actually knows her mother, and as the viewers have figured out in a few short segments, Dee is driven, controlling of her vision of the company, and not the type to retire so she can stay home and eat bonbons.

On her website, she refers to herself as a "girl boss", and her husband as, "Prince Charming".  Ugh.  Here's her header quote:

Quote

In the game of life, there are no trophies for participation!

In her "In Style" page, it discusses how the little beauty had 75 pairs of shoes for one season alone, and her ruffled panties were a hit on the playground.  You can't make this shit up.  It ends with, she "still stands by her aversion to outfit repeaters!".

I'm sorry, most of us aren't trust fund babies, and most of us repeat outfits.  She could not sound more entitled and unaware of the struggles of the average person.  I believe she married an "average man" because she gets to look down on him, and correct his table manners in front of her mother and the world.

I'm trying with the woman, but she battles me at every turn.  Just because she doesn't totter around in solid pink, waving a wand and toting a pocket pup, doesn't mean she's self-aware, or down to earth.

[SunnyBeBe]

Thanks for the background on D'Andra.  I can't imagine being in that position.  I suppose that when you work under others, you have to take what they dole out.  I suppose that I'm too independent for that.  I can't imagine that degree of privilege.  And when one gets too excited about material wealth......I find them less impressive.

LeeAnne seems to deal well with blunt and direct, even if it's a negative comment.  I think I could hang with her for that reason. 

I'm not a talk behind your back kind of girl.  I only say what I will say directly to you.

I think it's why I dislike Stephanie and agree she's two faced.  That TH when she said she didn't care about the flesh eating disease which came right after the scene where she was so fake concerned for LeeAnne.

Her and Cary deserve each other.

Regarding Leeann's diagnosis of "flesh eating bacteria "- aka necrotizing fasciitis- considering she had lost a substantial amount of weight and seemed to feel very ill, it was very surprising her Doc didn't admit her to hospital for debridment and IV antibiotics, which is the standard treatment. It can be life threatening if not treated swiftly and properly. Hate to joke, but, Leeann truly is rotten from the inside out....

Either Cary has lost her mind, or she is getting a very bad edit. Girl really needs to quit with the Botox, as she has a weird thing going on with her face. 

Just when I was starting to enjoy Brandi again, she turns evil. The revelation about Cary being Mark's family nanny, even if true, is hurtful and damaging. 

I don't think Leeanne had necrotizing fasciitis.  The doctor used the words flesh-eating, but he was kind of hedging his words.  He gave Leeanne the culture results in the office, so she had already been there at least once complaining, and the cultures were taken.  There is no way she would not have been hospitalized with NF.  She would have been on heavy antibiotics, and maybe supplemental fluids and oxygen.  It's often a race against the clock as they return multiple times to surgery.  I worked in recovery and our secretary had a routine ortho procedure and developed NF.  She returned again and again, as they cut a little more out of her leg each time.  She lived and kept her leg, but she never seemed the same.  She wore skirts above the knee exclusively to work, prior to the infection.  So while she was healthy in the end, she was "disfigured" enough that she never wore a skirt again.

I don't think that Leeanne was exaggerating her condition.  The doctor used those words . . . . I just don't know what to think about the whole thing.  A typical surgical infection can be pretty debilitating, so no need to exaggerate on the doctor's part.  It just doesn't look good after the continual pointing out that he's just a "vagina" doctor.  OB/GYNs are highly trained surgeons no doubt, but they're not plastic surgeons.

Possible but I think her wit is accidental.

 Wouldn't it be awesome if Kameron was faking -- if this was a persona, performance art, like Borat?  If she can keep it up for the rest of the season and then show up at the reunion, wearing a pink tee shirt with one winking eye -- !!!  That'd be so cool. 

Because if this is really who she is, she's a waste of space, and boring.

I tend to believe Kameron's whole persona is a performance for the producers. Every now and then you see the facade slip, like when she started laughing in Mexico after someone made a joke about being dirty (after she fled the dildo for a second time). The whole thing seems like an act to me, like the producers want her to play the pearl-clutching, pink-obsessed Dallas society queen and then they slapped on the Legally Blonde parallels to draw people in. It's not working for me, but I also can't take it seriously because it just seems like a season-long act for the cameras.

Actually, from what I've seen on the internet, LeeAnne seems to be the most popular of the Dallas HWs. She has the biggest social media following by far, with Brandi in second. LeAnne is obviously polarizing, but I think a lot of people recognize that without her, the show would be lacking the engine to drive a lot of the drama and storylines. Brandi sometimes helps the storylines along, but to me the show is clearly dependent on LeeAnne's loose cannon spitfire behavior to generate conflict and conversation for the other HWs to react to.

[Batwings]

Is LeeAnne auditioning for best soap opera villain ever? Her overreactions crack me up.

Kameron arriving, walking into, and sitting down at her “dog food meeting”. Good Lord. All I could hear in my head was “Hi. I’m Elle Woods. And this is Bruiser Woods. And we’re both gemini vegetarians.”

Cary is a fake, two faced bitch.

Cary called Brandi a liar about something that she clearly said and in her talking head even tried to walk back saying she might have said it. If she hadn't called Brandi a liar about the doctor thing I think both Brandi ans Stephanie would have had her back on the overall fight with Leeann but Cary is not loyal to either of them so her hurt came off as more phony.

And she wouldn't have even had to do that if she (Cary) hadn't started the shit-stirring herself that evening!  Actions, meet consequences.

She's supposedly just 48. But her whole style ages her. 

Yikes - two years younger than me?  I'm shocked.  And her mother may not want to "look 76", but clearly she also has no desire to "look sane" either.

I thought it was weird that the dog food manufacturing guys agreed to be on screen but the logos on their shirts, presumably indicating what company they were with, were blurred out.  Maybe it wasn't the same company that ultimately made the sparkle food.

Perhaps this has been said before (as I've only been watching this season of Dallas) but Cary's botoxed eyebrow raising makes her look like a slightly less painfully thin Taylor Armstrong.  It's kinda weirding me out.

Not only that but this trend is too late to start now. Maybe 20 years ago when people didn't care what additives and coloring were in their food but now even dog food is moving towards natural and without additional shit. People pay more attention now on what is actually in the dog food too. Of course not everyone but it's moving in that direction. I would certainly didn't feed my dear furry family member with that shit as I want him to be healthy and live a long life. I don't think she would feed her dog with it herself on regular basis, maybe to show off few times.

I had sinus surgery a couple years ago and developed an infection.  My ENT took a culture and it was some super rare thing so she referred me to an infectious disease specialist.  Waiting for that appointment was the longest couple days of my life.  Turns out it was something rare but also something that usually clears on its own.  Which was good because I also found out I’m allergic to most antibiotics. Anywho, guess that was apropos of nothing but it started out seeming relevant.

Last season we saw that Cary self-injects botox as she sees fit.  I'm pretty sure she even had it in a fridge at home and was administering it between her eyes while her husband was present.  I was kind of surprised that she was so open about it.  

[SunnyBeBe]

I'll have to go back and focus on these ladies' tight faces and foreheads.  It's funny...I watch most of the HW franchises and other reality type programs with OVERDONE faces, but, I don't even notice it anymore.  It's so common.  NOW, if someone didn't have tight skin, I'd probably think she was ill.  lol  It's pretty sad that when facial self mutilation is the norm.  I do actually think it's gotten to that point with some.....like Kim Z and Kim K.

Kameron is not too off base with the novelty pink dogfood concept - I've heard it stated the reason dog/cat food has shapes and colors is for the owners, the dog or cat doesn't care...had a dog that liked to graze  the litter box.

As for the guys at the dogfood manf plant - they don't care, they're getting paid to develop  it....Kameron doesn't have to sell them on the idea, either it can made or it can;t..

Carys a stealth bitch with too much botox and she's just a money hungry social climber. There really are no words for Kameron. I would throat punch her in 5 mins. flat. Stop with the pink, the (badly) dyed blonde hair and the affected way of speaking. And YOU are not the arbiter of what people should or should not wear, see, or laugh at. Go to the OC. There's a bitch there named Peggy and you can make condescending, nasty faces at each other all day.

But this is still miles from the mess the OC is. There is not one person on there who is entertaining, funny, or interesting. NOT.ONE.

My former dermatologist (Fabulous dr) had her teenage son and husband inject her Botox at her home under her guidance / supervision / request.  She is only former since I do not live in her state anymore....  I have zero problem with a trained medical professional of any kind doing the injecting on other people.  No way would I have anyone other than a dermatologist do it on me.  But, I do see nurses and other aesthetician type people advertising Botox in local (Dallas) magazines.  I have even heard of some Dentists getting into it.   I do not think it is a problem for a nurse to inject herself or patients if they are all in agreement ahead of time and you know that it is the nurse and not an MD doing the work.

[heatherchandler]

From this awesome recap -

The IV didn’t cut it, so she’s off to see “Dr.” “True.” “Hey, so, funny thing,” he tells her — I’m paraphrasing, but you’ve got to trust me on the tone here — “You’ve got just a smidgeof necrosis, a friendly little infection eating holes in your tissue.” “I have a flesh-eating bacteria?” she asks, understandably horrified. “You kind of do,” he responds. 

I feel a little bad for making fun of Dr. True for seeming like a terrible doctor now that it turns out he is legitimately a terrible doctor.

 

I am cracking up!

[ladle]

Am I the only one who suspects there's really nothing to the "D'Andra and Keatin clash" C plot? They may not be besties, but their relationship seems totally fine/ a non-issue to me. Like, you can add ominous music to a FaceTime call in post-production, but that doesn't make it drama.

I once knew a professional dominatrix who would swear up and down that straight guys like dildos. For what it's worth. The more you know...

Well I was at a "sex toy party" with friends, and the one said that she had bought one for her husband, and her sister said that she had done the same thing for hers!  But they reported that neither husband liked his gift :)

Perhaps, my expectations are too high, but, wouldn't the content of the dog food (nutritional value) would be more important that the way it looks?  

Absolutely. Plus, I never ever want to see pink dog poop!

But the business is Dee's, not D'Andra's.  In almost every episode, she's managed to subtly (and not so subtly) slip in whiney complaints about her mother, and how unfair it is that princess has not been given everything carte blanche.  

Here's where I take issue with both of them: If you believe D'Andra from the beginning of the season, she had a successful career in DC and her mom called her up and told her that if she came back she could take over the business.  Now, I wouldn't let myself be manipulated like that, but this seems like their dynamic from birth, so I can't really judge.  As soon as she got back, Dee snapped that carrot just out of her reach again.  They are a therapist's dream come true.

Tiffany sighting!!!

Tiffany was a bit of a snooze compared to the others but I liked her.  Glad she is still in the mix to some degree.

That's what she says, but I bet D'Andra was also homesick for Dallas and being a big fish in the Dallas society pond vs. being a little fish in the D.C. society pond.  She could have gone back to her career in some way if she was so in love with it. I think the handing over the company story is just storyline. D'Andra's got it made in Dallas from what I can see.

Am I the only one who suspects there's really nothing to the "D'Andra and Keatin clash" C plot? They may not be besties, but their relationship seems totally fine/ a non-issue to me. Like, you can add ominous music to a FaceTime call in post-production, but that doesn't make it drama.

I don't know. She went offff! I imagine part of his equanimity is how good this is making his mom look in comparison, even his non reaction.

I think he left because she is high strung and out of touch. She wanted to be his savior, and he was, "uh, no thanks. I'm good." Then he got in his car and left. At night. Yeah.

That said, I really like D'Andra. She's an excellent addition ... kind of a rich but fun and without the uppity Heather Dubrow.

According to the Prissy Pink Princess' rules of etiquette, Kameron should have pulled Brandi aside before giving Brandi the batteries or Kameron should have had gift bags for all of the women. Not only did Kameron fuck up her dig joke, but she violated her own rules about etiquette, class, and grace. Kameron is a boring basic dipshit.

 

Tiffany in the background laughing her ass off is my core workout.

Not to defend Kameron but the batteries were a Hostess gift so in that case it's a different situation where you don't have to pull them aside. Of course giving a Hostess gift you think will embarrass her is a much worse breach in etiquette than what Brandi, who apologized to Kameron before she did it, did.

Agreed. It was Brandi's party, so not out of line to give her a gift and no one else. But....the gift was meant to send a message of sorts, and that is definitely a faux pas.

She looked a bit like Nicole Kidman.   

I liked both Kameron & D'Andrea on the show tonight.  They laughed and giggled and seemed like they really enjoy each other and are good friends.  They remind me of Brandi and Stephanie but with different senses of humor.  I'd be surprised if Kameron doesn't lighten up eventually.  It's in her to have a good time, I think.

i liked d'andrea but will pass on kameron.  she's a phony.  although i will admit i also would not / did not like the dildo scene.  i would be clutching my pearls.  i just can't stand her putting brandi down...not cool! 

i thought  d'andra looked  good but not kameron.
