Kristin has an unique and special talent; she can be in a scene with two of the worst people in Housewife history, her husband and Ramona, and still be the least sympathetic person in the scene. Her need to be heard over and over and over and over again is tiring, tedious, and trying. Jeebus, I just wanted to scream at her "Shut up! We've got it Kristen!"

I thought it was a really good show. Its so nice to see real relationships forming with Carol, Holla! and Kristen, Lu too. Lu is really coming out of her shell, she has a quick wit at times.

Yeah, Kristen is a bit tedious with repeating the same stuff. But Ramona looked so bad in that Payard scene. I'm sure the shit had hit the fan with Mario by that time, he was sure showing his age in that scene he and Ramona had together. Kristen looked gorgeous. Kristen should have accepted the fake apology and we would have had a better scene.

The intervention scene was hilarious. I didn't realize how Ramona leaves any uncomfortable scene, it was so funny how they boxed her in.

Kristen's husband is such a jerk.

The scene where Ramona was working out with the roller in her hair and a bottle of red wine, could have been a skit on SNL.

That RAmona working out scene definitely looked like a skit, especially with the voiceover about looking fit with that gut and the wine.

I love Lulu planning to box her in and calmly saying she is not letting her go with her linebacker shoulders.

Luann is so comfortable being herself on screen. Carole was a mess on that date. So NOT hipster cool/chic. Dork. "Most women don't have orgasms." That's Emmy material right there. Lulu was dying to laugh/kick her under the table I think at her ineptitude. Do you think it was an act? I remember Carole acting similarly stupid on a date with another guy. I wonder if the heroine of her dating book has such witty repartee?

What the fuckety fuck with the match maker that they flashed back to? The plastic surgery on that guy's face? Holy Hell - that was something out of the original joker!

I know that Kristen was whiny with Josh, but I have to say, her original point about Josh scheduling time to come meet with the therapist to learn how to do Kingsley's therapies each day without the therapist was valid. The segue into the other stuff about the other kid and the romance was bs. But she was right about the therapy. If Josh had scheduled another business meeting, he wouldn't be checking calls/emails. It was rude to the therapist. It is really important to learn how to do physical and occupational therapy correctly. Kingsley isn't walking because her body hasn't developed properly. So they are working on strengthening her muscles and making her body integrate/coordinate better. He needs to learn how to do it right.

He did quickly throw Kristen under the bus about getting up early in the morning. I was glad to see she was trying to stand up to him. He was a dick on film to her. I really don't see that marriage lasting unless she likes being a doormat.

And with Ramona, I don't know if I would have taken her apology without saying something more. Sure everyone knows Ramona's a nut, but we don't deal with her IRL. It might have been pretty disturbing to have a coworker do that to you. Esp if you watched the show in past seasons and you saw her impulsive behavior before. I might have also wanted to say something like, "I think you need to get help with that." Kristen may feel like if she didn't, then she would continue to be a target of Ramona. I don't know if I mind that she is holding Ramona's feet to the fire on this. It's kind of the first time Ramona just can't kiss and make up and walk away scot free.

The look on Ramona's face when they asked her how Molly Sims' party was was priceless. I was a little sad that we didn't get to see her trying to climb over the table, though. I wish Luann would have said something when she grabbed Lu's arm to try to get away. Would have been a perfect opportunity to point out that she can't keep herself under control. She reminded me of one of the feral cats I trap. They go batshit crazy at first trying to get out of the trap, then hunker down and glare at you when they realize they can't get away.

I agree that Kristen harped a bit too long when they met for tea. She wasn't getting anywhere with that lunatic . However, can you imagine what Ramona would have said to the other hos if the tables were turned and someone offered her that bouquet? Bitch would have rolled her bugged out eyes and said how cheap and tacky it was that they stopped at a sidewalk vendor on their way. Ramona had plenty of time to call a florist and have an arrangement sent to Kristen. We all know that's what Queen Ramona would have expected. I don't believe for one second that she's sorry at all for acting like an angry two year old. She thinks Kristen is beneath her and is supposed to just back down and kiss her ass.

The wine swilling exercise scene would have made me feel sorry for anyone other than Ramona. Knowing that Mario probably just left his side piece in some swanky hotel and her talking about their awesome marriage actually made me laugh. Karma is a real bitch, Ramona.

Josh is a dick. Yeah, he works to pay the bills. But, to not be willing to turn his phone off for 30 minutes in order to focus on his baby daughter's therapy is a real dick move. I felt sorry for the therapist.

I just watched so I want to say I loved Kristen's dress at Payard although she was quite dressed up for a dessert shop. Perhaps she also had another appt. There is one downtown in the village and the original one uptown. R was dressed more appropriately.

K's dh is just nasty. Now K's dd on average shld be walking by 17 months but she's getting early intervention. Many parents won't even have that until after 18 mo. It appears she's benefitting from the occupational therapy which is great and since she is entrenched in it her dh should be too or else they could have waited one more month. I think that her dd is on the tail end of walking normally. Perhaps she didn't crawl either. I feel for them. In NYC and its competitive mom state it's so difficult to associate with the braggerts about their kids and when they do things super early - most likely because of big pushes from their parents. Honestly it could be bad if they push them to walk too early instead waiting until it is a natural progression.

What kind of work does Josh do where he wears that (black V-neck t-shirt, wrinkled pants and a baseball cap) to the office? He even looks like a douche-bag.

Carole's idea to call Lulu and ask for her "expertise" on manners was a brilliant move to get along with her. Luann ate it up.

I think Josh sells some kind of energy drink, but Terry Crews on WWHL said that Josh helped him get his book published, so maybe he used to be in publishing?

Isn't he a "branding specialist," whatever that is.

That recap is very good, got all the stuff down.

Kristen looked gorgeous at Payard, agree with CCC that the outfit was overdone for there, but perfect for the camera. Seeing as she's often so casual, I assume she was going somewhere else later.

I used to live up near Payard. THeir stuff is wonderful.

Aviva is back next week, and so is her asshole father. :(

I really don't mind Kristen's reaction because the glass throwing was just her final straw. Ramona has been a complete asshole to her all season, telling her to shut up, not talk, etc.

I detest men like Josh. When he said that thing about dinner on the table and was rude to that therapist because he is OH SO IMPORTANT and his daughter and wife simply are not, and the disgusting way he argued, by going on offense about hurtful things, instead of accepting the truth, he was being a DICK. Ugh, no thanks.

Heather said on WWHL that was a "normal" marriage, and these things happen. What things? The woman being a doormat after the kids are born? The whole 50's "I make the money so you shut up." stuff? Ugh Ugh Ugh

I loved the morning Yoga, Lulu all puffy, Sonja using all the down poses to drink coffee. That was cute.

Carole said most women don't have orgasms the first time with a new man. I actually agree with that, although there ARE certain men who have actually been trained well by some other women, and pay attention, have charm, technique, and can pull it off. In my experience they are the minority.

Ugh. I haven't missed her one bit.

In fact, I thought last night's show was the best show in a long time - of any Ho-wife show. It seemed jam packed: Ramona exercising and drinking wine, the 'intervention', Carole's completely uncool yet endearingly awkwardness at dating and 'small talk", etc. I thought Sonja was hilarious at the morning yoga - but I still think she looked good, but then I've always thought she was the prettiest of the RHONYs. I guess I just find her entertaining. It's one of the few eps I'll probably watch again.

Lulu looked so happy next to LeRoss. I knew it wouldn't last but I kind of felt bad for her that they aren't together anymore. And I totally cringed at that whole Mario/Ramona scene. I can't decide what that was; had shit already hit the fan and this was Ramona showing us how good their marriage was or was that in Ramona's future - in which case just makes me hate Mario more because he just let Ramona humiliate herself like that on TV. Not that he had any problems about humiliating her all over the Hamptons either apparently.

I'll admit I had to Google Payard. Wow. Sorry, but there is no way I would have left that place without eating something. Maybe that's why Kristen is a size 0 and I am not.

Thanks Finestra. For some reason his clothes surprised me. I don't think of NYC business people wearing the same thing Mr. C wears to mow the lawn.

And I love the recap - that's written by Potes, a former TW0P recapper. I love her writing/recaps. We often seem to be on the same page and this week I could not agree more with everything she said about Sonja.
