If you've been out in a boat, in rough waters a few times, you realize it's not the end of the world.

Unlike the ladies. Who probably haven't. 

I'm not saying it's fun or not terrifying the first time, but.

 

I was thinking the same thing -- I didn't think it was that bad. I've been on a lot of boats and I've seen, and been in, worse -- on a sailboat -- a hell of a lot closer to the water than those bitches ever were. The end result did not live up to the buildup and hype.

The captain clearly was in control -- he didn't look stressed -- curious who on the crew dropped the anchor but based on the TH he knew immediately what to do to solve the problem.
Their seasickness was exacerbated by the alcohol they'd been drinking all day and the food they don't normally eat.

Tinsley sitting crossed legged on the boat, having her cocktail while the others were screaming for dear life was awesome. . .  

Let them try an overnight distance race and have the breeze goes from 3 knots to 25 knots, thunder, and lighting in less than 4 minutes, at midnight, while  in the midst of a sail change at a mark rounding. 

Wimps. 

EDIT TO ADD: WTH was up with being all judgey about the street coconut waters and fresh fruit for sale? For so-called international cosmopolitan travelers, they seem ignorant of how common this is in tropical countries -- and how unbelievably refreshing the coconut water is. I had one every day when I was in Thailand, ate Thai street food and fruit, and it was some of the best food I ever ate. Same with the coconut water in Aruba.

Ramona did make me laugh with her little "So, Tinsley, now that you have a man are you going to work on some sort of career for yourself or....?" Way to get that dig in, Ramona. But WTF was Tinsley talking about with her "I just want to be wifey for a while now because I never had that." For one thing, she is not even engaged to Scott so she is no one's wifey and for another wasn't she married to Topper for close to a decade? Did she ever work during that time?

Loved the real hug between C and B on the boat. That felt real. 

Manipulation by Bethenny and Carole capitulating to keep the peace....don't think that's real.

Quote

Had roles been reversed, and BF had sea sickness, im going to go ahead and doubt Carole would be by her side rubbing her back... just saying...

And why should she? If someone doesn't want to be friends why can't they just disengage? Why is that not allowed? I am so confused. 

I mean... my god, they can't even have a conversation if she didn't pick the topic. She's exhausting! The only funny thing is B's talking heads trying to pretend she initiated the break- up.

Was anyone but me thinking about those poor people who were stuck on that duck boat a few weeks ago IRL and what they must have gone through?

 

I am kinda adjacent to the scene of the tragedy and I didn’t set my DVR for this episode for just that reason. 

Now that you-all are describing Numbers 1 & 2 as subplots to the storyline, I’m leaving the thing un-recorded for sure.

And once again,  I thank you from the very bottom of my tar-stained heart.

So when they were rocking all over the place, why did nobody ask for staff or the captain of the boat?  Made absolutely no sense.  It all looked so poorly staged & scripted.  This shit really didn't work!

Captain was busy piloting the boat. Crew was cutting anchor, tying down flying furniture, or just staying seated. Which was the safest place to be. Even if they would have been able to summon the captain or crew, it's not like much could have been done for them at that point except pass out life preservers. Which should have happened as soon as the Coast Guard said the water was rough.

[snarts]

So many questions: the boat left the island and was heading back to port. Based on the times flashed on the screen, they'd been traveling for over 20 minutes. So why did the boat suddenly drop anchor? 

It was too dangerous for the cameramen to continue filming on the boat,  but why skip filming that night? 

Why didn't Tinsley book their entire trip on that private island? So much better than the house in the city with no toilet paper. 

Finally, what do we think is Dorinda's drug of choice? Sorry, but her anger & aggression stems from more than booze.

Is there a chapter in Class with the Countess on the elegant and appropriate way to shit the bed in a vacation home?

LMAO!! seriously I just woke someone up from laughing 

[ancslove]

So, Dorinda was either still drunk or really hungover at breakfast.  She usually is apologetic after the fact, Luann's "beginning to turn" comment must really have struck a nerve.  Part of her must know that there is something wrong when she drinks.  That said, I understood why she told B to butt out, even though I don't agree that sharing a private vent/confidence with someone else (like Dorinda did with Tinsley) is the same as having a shouting match in front of witnesses who may interject.  

Ok, Sonja and Ramona were cruel to let Bethenny just go on and on when Carole joined them, but it was funny.  Carole handled it well once she decided to speak up, and I think Bethenny did too, once she got over that very visible initial sting of mortification. Their ensuing conversations this episode are probably the closest we'll get to seeing what really happened.   

That said, I also wonder if Bethenny declined to be part of the Coupon Cabin commercials, and that refusal/snub of Tinsley is also spurring some of Carole's feelings.  Not sure when those things were filmed, but this season, they were airing even when Tinsley and Scott weren't together.

Not me.  That was serious stuff.  All we saw here was some rocking.  And these broads are so overly dramatic about every fucking thing they do, it's difficult to take them seriously about anything.  To me, this crap trivialized the awfulness of what happened on that duck boat.

You’re right, and I kept thinking about the utter terror the people in that duck boat must have experienced during their final minutes.  What the NYC ladies experienced was kid stuff in comparison.

Bless you for this. 

 

I've been on a lot of boats and experienced some choppy water, but I've never had to cut the anchor with two swords in order to avoid capsizing, complete with smoke and whatever the hell else going on. Plus, at one point there seemed to be a very high amount of water rising right behind Carole and Bethenny at the back of the boat. I'm not judging their reaction to this, it seemed bad to me. 

Tinsley seemed especially vapid to me tonight. And her whole look is just too much. Lay off the eyeshadow. Dare to get your hair messed up. Good lord. 

Carole's outfit was fabulous. That skirt was gorgeous and the black top fit her like a glove. 

Man, I laughed and laughed when Bethenny was talking about Carole with her right there. Hilarious.

Dorinda is even worse this week than she was last week. She needs help. Lu is more forgiving than I could ever be.

Sailboats handle heavy chop better, tho.  That said, these gals spend so much time in the Hamptons, you'd think they'd have sturdier sea legs.

I can't believe Lu thought it was safe to walk around on deck during that pounding.

No fair. You're a ringer lol. I've never been on a boat on the ocean (by choice. Large bodies of water freak me out), so I'm fairly certain I'd've been puking as well.

I know people have posted it's probably that fight she got into with the banker who got a close up view of her shoe...but I think it's something else.

she's run into Tom a couple of times and either yelled at him or stormed out.

the fight with the shoe and the banker was because she'd been at Richard's grave. Harry Dubin was the one who intervened.

[Bronzedog]

I think the reason Dorinda continued to be bitchy on day two is that she was still drunk but sober enough to realize that she needs help and she's panicked.  I think she may have hit her rock bottom that night.  I'm sure on one hand, she wants her life straightened out, but, on the other hand she's afraid of what her life would be like sober.  For starters, she'd probably have to dump John.

 I didn't mind Tinsley this week.  I kind of feel sorry for her because she's always everyone's punching bag.

I’m watching Dorinda on WWHL and she has her daughters eyebrows on.  In fact this looks like day one after a microblading.

Dorinda is clearly still drunk with all the crying and histrionics.  Yeah, sure.  You feel bad about what you said to Lu?  What were you saying 30 min earlier?  Bitch, please.  So you're weepy with Bethenny and talking to Lu, you're suddenly all strong and "in a good place" again?  Girl, you need to take yourself to rehab.  You are the most unapologetic person ever.

WTF is Carole wearing?  She looks like an anorexic parrot who lost her pirate.  

Bolded part made me LOL. 

Did anyone else catch Dorinda saying to Luann that they needed to go away together for 21 days? And then Lu said "I'll go with you" or something similar? I thought that was Dorinda admitting that she needs rehab. I wonder if it will be brought up at the reunion? 

I wasn't the least bit surprised that Tins said she wants to be a wifey. I assume that is why she attached herself so quickly to Scott, and is so desperate to hang onto him. And the reason she is made up so much, no matter where they are going or what they are doing? The glad squad have to be kept busy. I was surprised they weren't on the boat trip for touch ups. 

When Sonja was helped off the boat when they first arrived on the island, I could see a price tag under her cover up, which I think was attached to the cover up. Did she leave tags on everything she brought? (I know she has done that before regarding tags). I agree with others who said she plans to return the items, though I will say that anywhere I buy a bathing suit, it is not returnable. Because of people like Sonja. 

[chewycandy]

Dorinda on WWHL: “21 days does not make Buddha.” I guess Luann should have apologized harder. How did “you’re starting to turn” warrant all those low blows?

Doris is on WWHL, denying she has a drinking problem, actually saying that "that's the most ridiculous thing" and being non-apologetic about what she said to LuAnn.  Almost to the point of making me think that they are no longer friends.

[KungFuBunny]

Dorinda went to Round 2 with Luann

When she finally apologized, I think this is the first time Dorinda did not preface her apology with "I should have taken a nap, I didn't take my nap today and I was off"

Dorinda is on WWHL denying she has a drinking problem. When Andy announced it was time to do the shot ski Dorinda practically bounced out of her chair to get to that shot. Lol!

I have no trust fund, no wealthy relatives, and no rich men on my horizon. I'd enjoy a life of shopping and leisure if I could! It's perfectly fine to aspire to a domestic lifestyle.
