S09.E23: Reunion Part 2

[Lady of nod]

If it wasn't for the puppy dumping I think I would actually hate  Dorit the least of all these bitches How weird is that. And is it possible that I hate Teddy even more than Rhinna? Probably only because Rhinna has been relatively uncharacteristicly quiet tonight

I have a different take on Camille.  I think the women all have an agreement to not say certain things about each other on camera.  Camille comes out and just spills all the tea; and the woman are all like OMG.  Denise said she doesn't scream at her kids, when unseen footage showed otherwise.  

The Atlanta and New York Housewives go off on each other, while Beverly Hills doesn't, that's why this franchise is boring to me.  No tea.

Denise said she doesn't curse at her children, which is what Camille accused her of. Denise never said she doesn't scream at them when they try her patience. It's possible to scream without using profanity.

I wonder if Camille is subconsciously taking out the anger she feels towards Kesley on the other woman. It's clear that both of them can't seem to let go of their negative feelings towards each other, even though they both are now married other people.

They really should if they're both ideally happily married to other people...

Okay so are we really gonna pretend that we don’t know what losing one’s temper looks like?? No really? Instead Camille is on something. All that bitch looked was mad and getting more and more frustrated. I hate the gaslighting Denise was pulling. “OMG what is wrong with her? Is she on something?”

No bitch she’s just mad. Seems pretty clear to me.. 🙄

And as for Camille saying her invitations had to do with production while it was a bit messy it was her way of knocking down Dorit saying stuff like “then don’t be fake about trying to be my friend and invite me to share important dates in your life” So Camille just broke it down and pretty much said “oh please bitch, that’s  not me being fake you know damn well part of that decision has to do with filming so pretending to believe that’s me trying to be BFFs you is rich..” 🙄

I would agree except she began to rip her dress of in the middle of the room.

I think she was trying to get the mic pack off and that is why she looked like she was stripping as she walked away. Camille was angry and frustrated and wanted out of there.  I can't say that I blame her.

Andy must really be pissed at Lisa for not showing up because he had all the clips and comments against her on the tip of his tongue.

Maybe.  However, I suspect he had this all ready to go because he suspected she wasn't going to show.  I'm not saying we wouldn't have seen some of what we've seen but I doubt we would have seen so much archival footage to indict Lisa.

Lisa can't unilaterally fire an employee of a charitable foundation. She is not their employer. 

I'd have to see her bylaws. It really depends on who she is and who he is in the org.  But 3 out of 4 members of the VDP Dogs are members of Lisa's family so I do think she'd get whatever she wanted.

I totally agree. How can Camille be so outraged at the ladies talking about her after her wedding when she didn't even want them their in the first place? If I were Kyle, I'd be really hurt that I a bridesmaid at someone's wedding who didn't even want me there.

Kyle knew why she was asked to be a bridesmaid. She's been around the block.  She was bitching about the ugly cap sleeves right away because she didn't really want to participate but she knew for the show she had to do it.  JMO I wasn't really there. 😁

[ParadoxLost]

I thought the one telling thing about this whole dynamic is something Kyle said.  She said it was a "low blow" that Camille outed her for continuing the conversation about LvP's teeth off camera.

They are no different than Camille.  They do the same kind of two faced, wishy washy stuff off camera that Camille will put on camera.

But they are living in a world where something said off camera was never said and a lie told off camera isn't a lie. (a plan to take down LvP off camera was a totally organic chain of events that could have been halted at any time if LvP reacted differently) 

They aren't admitting to anything.  I think there is probably a kernel of truth in everything Camille is saying but there is enough instances of those weren't their exact words and Camille blowing it out of proportion the more upset she gets that they are totally comfortable denying everything.

I think that sitting with six women who are claiming to never do anything similar to the awful things they are claiming you did with a moderator that is leaning towards their side would be crazy making.  I think it would be very hard not to lose your shit in that environment.  Especially when they are justifying their actions with her not really wanting them places which they know is production driven so its ok they trashed her afterwards.  Its tantamount to gaslighting.

Something about Camille's partying "Its a set up" and " they did say those things" rung true at least in a general underlying sentiment of how Camille was receiving the things people were confronting her with.  Frankly, I thought everyone else was spinning these confrontations so they came out better than they were acting while Camille was probably spinning them worse.

But Denise sitting there saying Camille is fucking nuts tends to make me put a little more weight on Camille's side of things because that seems in the same vein of behavior Camille was claiming of Denise.  She was more over the top vicious in her reaction than everyone else. 

I'm starting to feel like Denise has dropped a facade in the finale and reunion and she will be totally different (and worse than Rinna on her worse day) next season.  Not that she's done anything that objectionable but something isn't sitting right with how she is handling things now with Camille versus the rest of the season.  I'm mostly comparing latter season Denise to early season Denise and wondering.

I am convinced for the second time that the BH franchise is not a healthy place for Camille to be and she should run for the bathroom again and then get off the show.

I do wonder if Camille would fair better on a franchise where there wasn't agreement to not discuss certain things because Camille has never been able to live up to that and its a RHBH requirement.

There would be no bylaws of a charitable foundation that would allow a board member to fire an employee. A majority board vote could recommend the termination of an employee...it would be up to the ED to carry it out, but such a vote would also be a vote of non-confidence of the EDs leadership and any ED worth his salt would resign after such a board decision. 

Having said that, I think VPD runs a little more casual than a normal foundation and John wasn't fired because they all thrive on the drama and nonsense. It's par for the course. 

[tranquilidade]

It's hilarious how righteous Kyle is about the way LVP allegedly went about destroying the image of Dorit when in fact she showed up at the dog place accusing LVP of favoring Dorit and for failing to hold her accountable for the doggy dumping.  What a hypocrite!

Nope she has no close friends shown on this show ever  only “employees” well expect that psycho psychic what’s her name. even during her first seasons she didn’t have girlfriends/friends  she had her “assistants” it’s always been kinda weird. The other ladies at least had some people around them that they didn’t seem to have on permanent  payroll that seemed to actually be their friends  Camille never had that. It might have something to do with her ego being the size of California it’s self and no one being good enough for her to grace them with her friendship. When you are better then everyone else it makes it hard to connect to the low plebes below you. Everyone around her has always been less then or beneath her “socially” or “economically” I mean honestly who can’t  identify with the horror that she had to endure by buying a vintage Burberry coat from a second hand store. ***screams in poor people*** What is she an animal?

Well, that was interesting. I am glad that it was brought up that LVP did not bother to ask Dorit who she gave Lucy to, or ask for a phone number and address to follow up on where Lucy was. As I have said all along, LVP was the original puppy dumper.

The reason she did not fire John Blizzard (or have Sessa do it since he is the ED of VP Dogs) is because Blizzard was doing exactly what LVP asked him to do, including the scene where he fell on the sword for LVP and said he put words in her mouth. As if. Lol. 

It appears though that VP Dogs should be looked at a little more closely, given the now latest time Lisa or an organization that bears her name has been sued. An employee being told to forge cheques, and then being fired for doing what they were told? Shady, shady, shady. Maybe things are more lax in the states, but as someone who is on the board of directors of an animal charity,  we have strict laws and regulations that must be followed to the letter. Forgery would definitely be a no-no. But then, none of us on the board would have to be told that. It is kind of common sense - unless you are either an idiot or underhanded, or both.

Actually, it isn't forgery. You can sign a check on someone's behalf (with expressed consent) as an authorized representative. Forgery implies fraud. If she was writing checks she didn't have permission to write, then yes, that's forgery but that doesn't appear to be the case.

I’d rather be “manipulated” by an LVP type than spoken to in this derogatory manner. Not that I truly want EITHER, but I don’t know how Rinna can see what she posts and still feel so self righteous about herself over others, including LVP and Kim.

Camille seems to have lost her ever loving mind.  Why was she undressing when she walked off the set?  That was very strange.  And she insists they were ganging up on her as she's spewing insult after insult at them.  She's one of those people who can see the filmed footage and still swear it was something completely different.  I know one thing for sure though.  She's met her match with Denise.  Denise don't play that!

Dorit was blindsided. Camille brought it up out of nowhere. It's fine, whatever, I can't stand Dorit but all this gotcha crap is tired. RHOBH needs more mini ponies, dream vacations and house porn and less petty drama, fake tears and constant demands for apologies.

According to legal documents, she as Operations Manager was told to sign John Sessa's name to all cheques. She was then reprimanded by the VP of Operations for doing so. So apparently the VP of Operations didn't think it was all fine and dandy. The matter was resolved she thought and she did not continue to sign cheques. 

A week later she left work an hour early due to anxiety, and ended up hospitalized on a 5150 hold. Sessa told her to take a few days off with pay to relax. When she went back to work, Sessa told her that the the cheque situation and the 5150 hold were "a perfect storm" and not the best time for her to be acting as manager. The next day she was sent a termination notice which specifically stated the cheque incident. 

The woman thinks she was fired due to her "perceived mental disability" from the 5150 hold and the cheque situation was used as an excuse. She is suing for discrimination and wrongful termination.

I read the same article. She had permission to sign, thus no forgery. The new VP of Operations said no more, which is fine but the manager did nothing wrong, nor did Sessa by allowing her to sign his name. Firing someone directly after a medical leave, however, that's a bit stickier...

Dorit is playing it safe. I'd lay odds on it, that PK got the story out to ROL. He's a gambler, and has been laying low. I think about her false accent, about her drinking and yelling at Camille in front of her fiancé, and she wants/needs to be on this show, next season.

Rinna is sleazy, I've disliked her for some time. I'd watch if Rinna and Teddi were off this show, because the puppy dumper needs to feel how LVP felt this season. In fact, I'd relish it.

Yes. Although I really don't enjoy watching any of them you're right, Rhinna and Teddy are the worst of the lot. Teddy because she's so self righteous humorless and annoying, like a gnat, and Rhinna because she really is vicious. So vicious.

I didn't read anywhere that it was a "new" VP of Operations. And if you sign for someone else, you must write p.p. beside the name so it is known that it is not actually that person who has signed. It doesn't seem like she was told this, or why would she be reprimanded? And if it was all hunky dory, how can Sessa now use the cheque incident as a reason for letting her go? He never said anything in the letter about her medical leave, which was hardly a leave in any case since she was only gone a few days and he is the one who told her to take the time off.

All in all Sessa appears to be in over his head as ED, which doesn't surprise me. From what I have seen of him he is shady AF. 

Edited to add - I don't know what California laws are like, but where I live there is a Human Rights Tribunal that you can access if you have been fired without procedures being followed, especially where medical concerns are involved. If that were to happen where I live it would most likely cost the organization a nice chunk of change.

LVP lies as much as Dorit does. But LVP supposedly was just fine with Dorit, and did not pursue anything. She said specifically on air that she didn't want to talk about it. Because SHE dropped the ball. Then she used whoever she could to get back at Dorit rather than confront her herself. I have no idea why she did not have Lucy's back, but she definitely did not.

No and way. For someone that adores animals, she might be shady now and then, but puppy dumper, nope.

LVP should have known more than anyone that Dorit and PK were not suitable owners for a small puppy. They could not even take care of their own children when they were small without multiple nannies. LVP adopted out not one but two dogs to them. I am with an animal rescue charity and we are very strict as to who we adopt our rescued animals to. Dorit and PK would never be considered, with two still small children.

I think these women are VERY careful what they say on camera, ever since that mess happened when Brandi supposedly said something about, Adrianne I think.

It was about Adrienne using a surrogate.

On a later season, all season long, the other women didn't bring up drunk Brandi's tampon string hanging out for the world to see. They kept quiet until the reunion when she was so over the top unrepentantly nasty.

One article says a "new" supervisor told her to stop signing checks, another article claims the VP of Operations told her to stop. Sounds like the VP of Operations came on board and put a stop to it. Also sounds like the VP of Operations is a little histrionic and threw around the "forgery" word...Sessa has no idea what he's doing and would likely deny he gave the manager permission. Idiot.

"Dr" Sessa is miserably prepared to be an ED. Not sure about his professional experience but his doctorate is from Argosy, which is apparently closed due to going into receivership and doesn't appear to have accreditation.

I think this is probably true of the Blizzard situation as well.  This is all guessing on my part, but I bet John Sessa was very solidly behind the plan to tell Teddi, to show the dog, etc.  I think it's likely that he was telling Blizzard what to do, and that is why Blizzard perceived it all as coming from Lisa.  And if true, Blizzard would not be someone Lisa would fire in that whole scenario.  Nor would she want to out that Sessa was behind the scheming and phone calls. 

I don't think any of them (Sessa, Blizzard or LVP) were behind the ROL story, though.  I think that was a separate issue, from a separate camp.

It appears though that VP Dogs should be looked at a little more closely, given the now latest time Lisa or an organization that bears her name has been sued. An employee being told to forge cheques, and then being fired for doing what they were told? Shady, shady, shady. Maybe things are more lax in the states, but as someone who is on the board of directors of an animal charity,  we have strict laws and regulations that must be followed to the letter. Forgery would definitely be a no-no. But then, none of us on the board would have to be told that. It is kind of common sense - unless you are either an idiot or underhanded, or both. 

I listened to an interview with John Sessa. He claimed that their adoption coordinator (Hannah, who later ended up dating Teddi's brother) tried at least twice to get information from Dorit about the new owner so she could do a home visit. Lisa also said she asked Dorit for the name of the woman. Dorit didn't provide the name to either of them.

Of course not, there is no woman. Dorit is a liar.

How else is Camille supposed to rip off the microphone pack that's taped to the inside of her dress so that she can toss it down on the ground in a proper reality TV reunion storm off huff? That's, like, Storming Off Set 101. Kyle and Teddi may not understand what a "performance persona" is but I bet even they know that. 

Ugh, if I never hear the words "performance persona" again, it will be too soon. The ONLY thing I will ever agree with Kyle on is how talking about Erica in third person is ridiculous (she didn't say that--but I am pretty sure it was implied!) Dumb as F**K. I wish Erica would disappear...if anyone is fake it's her, I don't think she likes anyone much less these "ladies".

That she didn't give either of them the name of the "lovely woman" is shady as hell. This was well before any publicity, any leaked stories, any filming.

John Sessa also claimed somewhere (don't recall if it was in the interview I listened to) that in the first communication from the dog shelter, the shelter worked said (in a phone message or email or contact form on the website -- don't remember) a reality celebrity had brought the dog in.  He did seem mightily pissed though, I remember that.
