S09.E01: Lucy Lucy Apple Juicy

[Bronzedog]

I have adopted four dogs from four different rescues.  Every contract contained a clause that if anything happened, the dog was to be returned to them.

Dorit saying that she didn't like her personal business discussed - Dorito, when you dumped the dog and so many others had to clean up after you, it is no longer personal business.

[nexxie]

Denise must have a good heart- she took in Charlie’s twin sons when neither he nor their mother could care for them.

I have to disagree, that scene in Wild Things is for sure Denise’s claim to fame ! Far surpasses Charlie !

Denise was a Bond girl!  Perhaps not the most memorable Bond girl, but that’s pretty cool. 😎

[njbchlover]

Something tells me I am going to be very frustrated watching this season....I can already feel the animosity towards LVP.  

Hoping we don't see too much of the Hamlin girls - totally annoying!!  

Dorit and PK continue to aggravate - and, as I mentioned earlier, I don't need to see Dorit with her logo'd ass, again this season, skewing the truth and twisting conversations.  PK is a sweaty Humpty Dumpty in a stretched out, sloppy t-shirt.  

Erika is entertaining more at her house?  Wonder if she's getting the most out of it before something happens to it.

Kyle seems like she already had an axe to grind before filming even started.  

But, Mauricio is still gorgeous!  

Who's son peed in the pool - Teddi's??  I loved the look of shock on Mauricio's face!!  

Didn't that happen with one of Brandi Glanville's kids during her first season?

Dorit was practically salivating at that dinner with Ken and Lisa.  You could tell by the look on her face that she’d honed in on her storyline for the season.  I can’t stand her and another season of victim Dorit....I’m out.

Dorit is the only one who needs this show.  She and PK are up to their necks in debts and lawsuits.  

Lisa V.  move on.   Go do a Vanderpump Rules spin-off in Vegas and be done with this show.

LVP was totally shit stirring telling Dorit that Teddi was talking.

I think she just wanted Dorit to know what happened at the rescue place and to know that she defended her.  IMO, it was a CYA for Lisa in case the other ladies start making it sound like LVP was talking badly about Dorit.  I have no doubt they'd start that shit.  

For what it's worth, I don't believe a word that Dorit says.   

[lgprimes]

Ugh I suffer from “face blindness” and I can already tell it’s going to be a long season trying to tell Teddy apart from Denise!

[breezy424]

Well.  I thought it was a good first episode.

The goats made me laugh.  I wouldn't do it for sure.

Kyle's dress in that commercial looked great on her.

Dorit should have talked to LP before giving the dog away.  Of course now, she's playing dumb.  When I adopted my Lab rescue, I absolutely aware  that if it didn't work out, I contact the rescue and I'm sure Dorit was told that but she tends to have a bad memory given what we've seen with her in the past.

Dorit in that bikini?  Good God.  It's a family picnic and I don't understand why she thinks those weird breasts are sexy.

And PK in that t shirt?  And everyone else is nicely dressed?  I guess he thinks his shaved hands are more important.

I'm liking Denise so far.

Erika?  Still don't like her.

I've always liked Teddi and she's definitely fitting in even better now.

Looks like it's going to be a roller coaster of a season

I will always be on the side that Dorit is not. How on earth does PK show up at dinner in his stretched out T-shirt. He is so gross. 

This!  He’s always disheveled.

Here’s the thing...PK and Dorit seem like grifters to me.  House of cards, they are both as fake as can be...

How many times have they been sued for lack of payment?  Who has the scoop in total since Dorit has been on the show?

In no way do I think what Dorit did was acceptable and she is a horrible person her running to say I didn’t say anything it was John reeked of her trying to cover her ass. In no way would that guy have brought that dog out on his own and started talking shit without running it by Lisa first I’m sorry Lisa put him up to it to keep her hands clean ... I didn’t say it it was my employee.... 

[Petunia13]

Who abandons or passes off a pet because it scratches? Then acts dishonest and offended when the truth comes out?

And she had a huge network of support for training or rehoming already in place at Vanderpump Dogs. Dogs and cats are a commitment and only ask for our love, structure, and patience. How Doridiot not know this?

[dbell1]

Every rescue animal I've adopted has come with a return clause. I'm even on my mom's mom's contract for her cat. So, for Dorit and PukeJ to give the dog away knowing she's a biter? Wrong on every level. Good thing the shelter scanned the dog.

Speaking of biting yapping things, shut up Kyle. And take the morally corrupt Faye with you.

She should.  Kyle bugged me when Lisa mentioned that she wasn't doing well since her brother's death and Kyle had to chime in that she's had some problems too.  Did she have something as tragic happen as a sibling who committed suicide?  If she had something that serious, well then, ok, but if not, just STFU Kyle.

I'm not saying you're wrong, but I'm going to give LVP the benefit of the doubt on this one just because I like her!  I hope she didn't put that guy up to it, but at this point, I don't know who is lying and who isn't, except for Dorit.  Again, I don't believe a word that comes out of her mouth.  I think she freaked out about the dog and dumped it at the shelter.  She effed up and won't admit it.

[movingtargetgal]

Kyle does not have an ounce of empathy for anyone.  She has a "good friend" who is grieving the loss of her only sibling by suicide and instead of supporting Lisa, vile Kyle views it as an opportunity to finally get Lisa while she is down.  What a horrible excuse for a human being.

Somebody wanted this dog story to happen, or they wouldn't be talking about it on camera.  If LVP went to Teddy and asked her not to talk about it, I don't see Teddy being so malicious that she'd do it, regardless.  Unless Teddy's on-screen persona is a total sham.  

I suspect whoever leaked the story to the press well be the fuel for most of the drama all the way through the 3 part finale, lol.

Denise seems really nice, but I’m surprised by the couple people saying she looks natural - I think her face looks awful and Rinna level messed up!

Kyle can't stand not being LisaV's victim. She always will make herself out to be the wronged party. Lisa lost her only sibling to suicide, well tough, Kyle is going through something too! 

[Dixie Sugarbaker]

I got the impression that LVP told Dorit that John was talking to Teddi about Lucy was to explain how Teddi knew about it. Didn’t Teddi say she heard it from John? And yes, I believe John probably discussed it without prodding from Lisa because it was obvious he was PISSED! Then Dorit twists what Lisa said and says that Teddi is talking about Dorit when that was not was Lisa said. Everyone comes for LVP but it is obvious to me that Dorit is the master shit-stirrer in this group. Can’t wait for her takedown.

[Otherkate]

Dorito and PK are such grifters in my mind that I literally don't believe a word that comes out of their mouths. Dorit got robbed? I find myself reacting with complete disbelief. Dog bit PK's nose and that's what that pic was about? Mmm, I mean, sure, maybe. But maybe not? I'd believe anyone else who said it (well, maybe not Kim). But with these two? My mind immediately flashes to Dorit scratching PK's nose so they can have photo proof for why they gave the dog away.

If PK were a tshirt, he would be that exact shirt he was wearing. Blech. So gross.

I got a cat from a shelter and I think I paid like 20 bucks for shots or something to get her and even in that contract it was very clearly stated that I should bring her directly back there if there was any issue. It was made very clear to me verbally as well that I should not rehome her myself. I mean, come on. There's a reason these places do a thorough job interviewing people who are looking to adopt. You can't just meet some random woman and hand over an animal. And I can't imagine Dorit was afraid that LVP would be upset, because what's the alternative? Like, was LVP never going to know the dog was gone? If I were LVP, I wouldn't be able to look at those two the same again. She's giving them a lot of leeway and I kind of understand why that set Kyle off.

I love Denise and am looking forward to her. I've heard her on the Howard Stern show and she just seems like good people. 

LVP isn't handling her brother's death well and who can blame her? "Compartmentalizing" is a very bad idea. And, frankly, if I were her friend I would be giving her a lot of space to be a total asshole during this time. People in the midst of grief do and say crazy things. 

Teddi's son is kind of a nightmare?

Edited February 13, 2019 by Otherkate

[Thumper]

Teddi's 3-yr-old son has a phone????!!!  (I like Teddi.)

What's with Lisa Rinna's breasts?

I just can't with Dorit.

[ghoulina]

I'm dreading this season already. I love Kyle and Lisa together; I'm not ready for that fallout. 

But LVP DOES do this thing where she doesn't say a word to Kyle's face and then brings some slight up on camera. Also, I think when she's mad, hurting, whatever; she takes it out on Kyle because it feels safe. They've been friends forever, she believes Kyle will always forgive her and be there for her. 

Dorit and the dog. Not cool. Should've taken it back to Vanderpump. And can you blame the dog for biting PK? 

Did anyone else immediately think she made up the robbery? It sounded an awful lot like Kyle's. But then she runs off to Utah? Oftentimes, children are really scared after their home has been burgled. I'm sure they could have benefited from stability at that time. 

My favorite Devise Richards film will ALWAYS be Drop Dead Gorgeous.

Her boyfriend, Aaron? Mmmm

[KungFuBunny]

I think the Lucy situation comes down to money.

Even if Dorit didn't read the contract, PK did and they don't have the money to pay the $5000 penalty fee, so they got rid of the dog.

It sounds a bit unrealistic that some random woman wanted the dog, DoDo-rito and the Boiled Ham probably brought the dog directly to a shelter and don't want to cop to it.

Yeh. I spent the whole time wondering what the hell she’s done to her face. I would still like to hang out with her though. She seems cool

Dorit is a little shit. I can’t stand her outfits which make her look like she’s trying too hard. I think she thinks she looks cute and casual when she really looks way overdone. 

Also if you have adopted a dog and the dog bit your kids a couple times and then bit your husband, would you not ask your “best friend” who is a dog lover and has some experience with rescue dogs for advice? No, you just take a picture for evidence and then hope no one notices the dog is gone? Something is fishy there

Good point about the money - whether they found another home or not.

Yeah, meant to comment on Dorit running off to Utah after she was "robbed."  Leaving kids.  What???

[enchantingmonkey]

How soon before filming started did this thing with Lucy Lucy happen?  The more I think about it the more I wonder if Dorit would pull this stunt to secure a storyline for herself this season.  If the woman can run off to Utah and leave her children right after her home was burglarized, I'm not sure this dog debacle is beneath her.  Definitely not beneath PK.

Something just sounds totally hinky about their story. We've seen Dorit screeching and getting hysterical over her kids.

If Lucy bit both Phoenix and Jagger - her first call would have been to Lisa to freak out on her - Lisa would have waived the penalty fee to keep it hush hush.

Didn't that happen with one of Brandi Glanville's kids during her first season?  

Brandi's youngest son (about 4 years old) had been taught not to pee in the pool so he got out and went over to the grass and peed, which is what he would do at home.  :)  Kyle made a huge deal out of the poor kid doing this in front of people at the party.  She acted as if the child was a sexual deviant and would not shut up about it.  She was "outraged" that Brandi, who had a broken foot, did not rush over to stop him and insisted that she should have admonished that poor kid there and then.  I know Kyle has all girls but this is the type of thing little boys do.  He thought he was doing the right thing by getting out of the pool to pee.   Kyle could have laughed it off but she used it to embarrass Brandi at one of her first get togethers with the housewives.

Edited February 13, 2019 by movingtargetgal

[breezy424]

I didn't infer that there was a $5000. fee to return the dog to Vanderpump Dogs.  The penalty fee was if you didn't return the dog back if you didn't want it.  No rescue that I know of imposes a fee to return a pet that doesn't work out.  That would be ridiculous IMO and is not what rescues are about.  

Dorit and PK should have incurred the penalty fee but they're shallow, selfish people who obviously shouldn't own a pet in the first place. 

[langford peel]

It’s obvious that Dorito is hiding her jewelry and handbags from creditors. Kyle’s robbery just gave her the idea.

LVP needs to drop this show. She doesn’t have any friends here. Kyle couldn’t scare up an iota of sympathy for Lisa who lost her brother in the worst possible way. LVP needs to drop that bitch like a bad habit.

[Pattycake2]

I swear every time Dorit appeared it was in a more pretentious and ridiculous outfit.  I wish the burglars had stolen her wardrobe and accent, too.  Do we really have to see Rinna’s average looking, half educated daughters?  Every season we see Kyle fly off the handle and accuse at least one housewife of not having her back.  All she had to say to lvp was to smile and sweetly say : you clearly told me it was no big deal if I didn’t attend the party!  Instead of getting her panties in a twist and stumping off.  As far as everyone’s concern over lvp keeping her feelings inside, I’d bet the farm that lvp has shed a thousand tears at home.  You HAVE to compartamentalize, work, and distract while grieving or you’d be a mess 24/7.  

[Carolina Girl]

If I were a betting woman, I would say JOHN was the one giving this story to the press.  He was totally pissed about what Dorito and the Slug did.  Especially if that dog was turned over to a kill shelter and only the fact that it had a microchip saved it.  John has the whiff of attention whore about him to be sure, but I also believe he cares a great deal about those animals and was more than eager to get the story of Dorito out   

[AttackTurtle]

I actually thought Dorit May have come up wit an insurance scam idea when Kyle was robbed.

Dorit wants to appear as well off as the others; hence of course she was the target of a robbery.

[langford peel]

Dorit would have better off if the burglars had stolen her big fake tits.

Wait a minute! I bet that’s where she is hiding those Birken bags!

[jaybird2]

i'm tired of the piling on lvp every season.  i will watch a few more episodes but if this continues i won't be watching.  i only like lvp.

That was the first thing that came to my mind.  When Dorit was telling the story to Erika (or, is she EriCa when she is at her husband's house?), Dorit was repeating, almost word for word exactly the way Kyle told her story during the reunion.

I would not be surprised if they staged the robbery, after selling off any jewelry or purses of value.

That was my thought exactly - John was super pissed off about this - wouldn't surprise me if he did leak the story, and can't say I blame him.

Also, wouldn't surprise me if LVP protects him.  He clearly loves the animals he's working with, and if there's one sure way to Lisa's heart is to show a love for animals.

[Rina99]

My take on the Kyle/ Lisa argument was that it was a continuation of one they'd previously had, based on Kyle's reference to previous texts.  Therefore, Kyle is referencing things discussed before, while camera-ready Lisa knew just how to respond.

I actually thought Lusa handled the Dorit thing ok up until she inferred-but didn't say outright, oh no-that Teddi would likely be spreading gossip about her. 90% of what Dorit says is bullshit, but for once I think she picked up exactly what Lisa wanted her to.

[langford peel]

It just shows how stupid Dorito and Pudgy the Whale can be.

They should have the fake burglars steal the little dog too!

Agreed - they didn't do themselves any favors by introducing Denise through pictures of her and Rinna from decades ago.  Denise should avoid profiles, and Rinna should avoid whatever she did with her boobs before putting on the green TH dress.
