S11.E15: Life is Not a Cabaret

[OnceSane]

Quote

Tinsley shares a recent picture of Ramona locking lips with Harry Dubin; Sonja loses it after leaving an AA meeting, but Luann doesn't let that rain on her cabaret parade; the women confront Luann over her selfish ways; Bethenny has a panic attack.

Come to the CRAPbaret my friends.....

Hey!

[Steph J]

Why are so many scenes from this season being shown as "flashbacks"?  I don't recall past seasons featuring so many flashbacks which weren't actual flashbacks to earlier seasons.

[pieinmyeye]

That picture of Moaner and Harry making out was nauseating.

What is it with everyone wearing sunglasses inside?

Being inside that white marble house I probably would too...

[Rhetorica]

Tinsley! You go girl.   She's a big girl now...  Or,  she gone over to the dark side.  I'm tickled she has something on Romona.

They're hung over.

I'm not sure why Bethenny would try to direct Tinsley towards a 57 year old guy when Tins is supposedly mulling whether or not she wants to have a baby (not that men have a window for having children the way that women do, but I don't think there are a ton of men who are looking to do the baby thing when they're pushing 60).

And I'm not sure why Tinsley would be interested in a guy who is simultaneously texting two women who are in the same house together.  Is he texting Sonja, too? Still interested in Bethenny?  Wants to give Luann a shot?  Pick one person from the group, dude.

She and Mario kissed like that at their vow renewal. Ramona wants to eat her man’s face...lovely. 

[Straycat80]

Barbara should just go home, she’s an adult. I don’t think she’s going to get an Apple after this season. Lu has dumped her and no one else seems to like her.

Well Bethenny always has because she has those dark circles around her eyes when she isn't covering it up with foundation.

Everyone else, after a night of drinking - deep sensitivity to light?

[Keywestclubkid]

Barbra without makeup YIKES 

[pieinmyeye]

Really Moaner? If I was being filmed, I’d wear a bathing suit with a bit more support. Let’s face it. I would never be filmed wearing a bathing suit.

[Straycat80]

LOL @ Tinsley, Sonja goes to an AA meeting, freaks out, ‘Sonja needs a drink’. 

[Steph J]

A 180, Luann.  A 360 takes you right back to where you started.

[bosawks]

I kinda think Lu is right about the 360.

It didn’t look to me like Sonja changed her opinion about going to the meeting whatsoever.....

[Neurochick]

What happened to Sonja? 

[Bronzedog]

This is a Public Service Announcement-  Do Not Be Devoid of Humanity!  Do Not Be Like Luann!

[whydoievencare]

Bethenny is ragging on Luann for having "sequin earmuffs"  regarding Sonja's breakdown but Bethenny didn't respond very kindly to Barbara when she was upset and essentially saying that no one was interested in her at all this trip.  In fact they ALL threw it back on Barbara for having bad energy.  The motor-mouthing they all do is actually incredible - they can really escalate any situation and make it worse.

Classic!

I like that Tins called Ramona-the-face-sucker off this guy but I don’t know if he’s the one to take a stand over. 

I’m surprised Bethenny didn’t burst into flames saying with a straight face that Luann’s favorite topic is Luann.  That must be such a crazy concept for you Beth.

I think the story about the guy who moves from town to town to start over and the guy who is homeless now is hitting a chord in Sonja - there's a 90% chance this will be something in her near future

[Keywestclubkid]

After the trauma I went through? Sonja for the love of god it was a AA meeting calm the fuck down.

Luanne looks out for herself. Not a bad idea given her friends. I think, though I HOPE I'M WRONG that people were giving Sonja attention to make the point that Luanne is this cold callous beast. Maybe they cared about Sonja, but given in the last episode Sonja was emotional  and they called her off as a drunk and called the parmedics.

I'm not saying these ladies don't have a point, but they all seem to really be into taking Luanne down. It's all they are talking about.

WHO CARES??? Let her do her thing! Hang with your friends! Damn.

Exactly!! If Luann didn’t have her head so far up her own ass, she would have noticed that.

[Neurochick]

Why was Sonja traumatized after going to an AA meeting?  Don't get it.  

Why are they pissed at Luann, she didn't want to be with those unhealthy heifers. 

Bethenny's favorite topic is BETHENNY!  Why is Luann any different?  In fact Luann is NO different than any of these women, all of them are ME ME ME.  Even Sonja, she made the AA meeting about HER.

Those heifers gave Sonja just what she wanted, attention.

LUANN HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD.  SONJA WANTED ATTENTION.

OMG I see the white coke streak in Luann's nose!!!!

I think all the stories that people told got to her. She felt sad for those people, and it got to her. I get it. I went to college in a very depressed neighborhood and felt a lot of guilt about how priveledged I was in comparison.

[Vanderboom]

As obnoxious as she is, I am loving Ramona's impression of Luann.

[Bronzedog]

I kind of hate Luann.

[Neurochick]

Luann isn't people pleasing and the rest of the women can't deal with it.  Luann is selfish but so are the rest of the women.

What a self centered cow.  I really don’t know how she has any friends.  She really is deaf.  Sonja told her from the second they left the meeting she wasn’t comfortable.  Luann didn’t hear because she doesn’t want anyone else to get any attention.  

I’m loving Luann lecturing Sonja about drinking when she’s still drinking.  I just can’t with her.

[TexasGal]

Does Bethenny really have to make the “they are all so old no one still gets their period except me” jokes twice in the season?  Carry some tampons Bethenny!  GO TO SLEEEEEP!

[Steph J]

Jesus Christ, Bethenny.  Keep some tampons in your purse and find some other way to signal that you aren't an old crone like the rest of them (save Tinsley).

[sashayshante]

Guys. GUYS! Bethenny still gets her period! No menopause for her!

No, Sonja said she wasn't comfortable because SHE, SONJA wanted attention.  "I can't deal with the meeting....please comfort me...I'm a broken bird."  And all the others just fell for it.

[TexasGal]

Who was the guy hustling up the stairs when Ramona went to check on Lu?  I was so distracted by that. 

[janiema]

Luann is right:

Sonja had her “breakdown” for attention

Sonja didn’t act so distraught in the car

Bethenny is the person who made Sonja go to the meeting

And Luann was right to remove herself from that ridiculous “breakdown” situation. It’s not good for her sobriety and someone needed to take a stand against Sonja’s attempt at passive aggressive control of the whole house.

[sashayshante]

The irony? She doesn't keep tampons in her purse because she no longer gets regular periods ergo she's in peri-menopause ergo she's in menopause.

[SweetieDarling]

Seriously, how does Bethenny travel without tampons in her travel bag? 

[mwell345]

Tinsley acts like a 12 year old who just discovered BOYS!!

[Keywestclubkid]

She’s talking about having children while having cocktails on their first “hangout”? Run for the hills man. Tinsley girl no 

[Bronzedog]

They're in Miami, right?  Not a remote island?  And, they've left the house?  Buy some damn tampons, Bethenny!

Air conditioning makes Sonja poo?  Alrighty then.

[SailorGirl]

OMG -- Tinsley on her date . . . dying!! 😄

 

[Mannahatta]

I was really disgusted at how the "ladies" completely dismissed Barbara's quite accurate observation that they were ignoring her. Somehow they managed to both deny that this was happening and yet also blame her "negative energy" for this thing that never happened. Completely gaslighted her. Plus Luann, who clearly views Barbara as having out-lived her usefulness, joins in without a second thought. And then Bethenny, in typical Bethenny fashion, later acts as if she's her confidante, "Don't leave!". Just despicable behavior all around.

[BodhiGurl]

Omg Babs... settle down on the self tanner in a spray can, and nice job getting it all over the white furniture. Yeesh.

Thanks for this.  

If Sonja was truly upset she would have told Luann in private, not waited to be in front of the other women, and the cameras.

[KungFuBunny]

Ewww....is the spray tan color Barbara uses called Silly Putty #5?

[Straycat80]

Tins is giving TMI for a first date.

not a fan of Lu’s but she’s not wrong. ALL of these bitches only care about themselves, they are all narcissists. 

Edited June 13, 2019 by Straycat80

[mwell345]

And yes, LuAnn is self absorbed (but so are the rest of them) - but it seems like they are really reaching here in terms of how she’s offended all of them.  

As far as her taking a swim, maybe she just didn’t want to be around them for another drunken lunch.  Her prerogative!

If you love that, go to her thread and see her impression of Little Edie.
