I must be the only one in the world who is still team Vicki. I can't quit her.
Laurie just came off sooooo desperate. I don't even care if it is true. It is just so mean spirited to do that on television.
Plus from my investigative reporting she was getting back at Vicki for something that was pretty mild in comparison. Vicki might have gossiped a bit but by no means was running her mouth. And the gossip was sort of ho hum. And then Laurie just drops this bombshell.
Also I wanted to punch Gretchen for a million reasons the whole episode. Especially how gleeful she was about the Vicki thing. Girfrieeeend were you the one with your lady bits plastered all around the interwebz. Glass houses and all.

I feel like my world has been turned upside down with the women this season. Lydia doesn't annoy nearly as much as I thought she would. Alexis and Jim are at least acting like decent people together (I stil think it's fake, but he seems like he is being more supportive this season). Tamra is finally starting to understand that she doesn't HAVE to act like a raging bitch all the time. Vicki is weird and Brookes is definitely a creeper and a user. I still like Heather though. I think she is classy and while sometimes I think she overdoes her exasperation with her husband, I still like her.
Gretchen is the worst this season though! She is catty and mean and rude and disrespectful and not the least bit self-aware. I think she felt so wronged by the women regarding the Jeff situation. While I think her and Jeff had some kind of agreement and as long as they were okay with it and it seemed like his kids were okay with it, who are those women to judge? But she needs to let it go. And she was beyond over joyed over Lauri's accusations. And in regards to Lauri, I think she just wants back on the show and the way to do that is to have DRAMA!

Remind me what Vicki did to Lauri?
I kind of feel bad for Vicki. I can not explain it. I think she doesn't like herself very much and takes that out on others especially others that have similar negative qualities as she does.
I like Tamara this season so far. I lol'd when she said 'what's next? A yeast infection?' Ha!
I wonder if Gretchen still has the fancy car or if that was just for show?
In her blog post on Bravo.com she said that she drove it for a bit but ended up returning it to the dealership because she drives to and from LA so much.
I haven't watched the whole episode yet but I have to share my favorite Lydia quote about strippers - "I have 2 boys, a husband, and a dog. I see enough penises."

I think Vicki is desperate and lonely, and everyone seems to rag on her non-stop.
I normally don´t like super long hair on women, but I think Lydia´s hair is gorgeous. Her kid´s names are stupid though.
Gretchen looks old with all that make up, and why does it seem like she´s wearing the same outfit with the shoulder blades and hideous necklace in all her one-on-ones?
i tend to believe lauri. she's always seemed like...not a trainwreck desperate attention-seeker, like the rest of them. i believe that lauri has always been unenchanted with vicki (esp. since she worked for her! that would do it, no?) and probably felt really betrayed by what vicki did to her. i think it gave her the motivation to give it back to vicki - and give it back, she did. i was watching with my jaw open. like, that is balls.
the older gretchen gets, the tackier she looks. she could be gorgeous and chic, but all i see is a 'mall groupie' type of girl. it's such a waste.
lydia is SO annoying, but i enjoy watching her. if that makes sense.
i love love love heather.
I totally agree, especially about Gretchen. This is when I see people and am astounded that I am older than them because I feel that they look way older. She wears a lot of makeup, which I don't think she needs, and now is so desperate to get back at Vicki that it makes her look worse than Vicki. I mean, if you didn't like being treated a certain way, how is it any better for you to do that same thing?
She still has pretty good hair though. :/
And while I know it's a bach party trip, it was kind of sad that most of them could not just enjoy a nice dinner and have good conversation before partying it up.
In her blog post on Bravo.com she said that she drove it for a bit but ended up returning it to the dealership because she drives to and from LA so much.
Orrrrr....she can't afford it and it was set up by the show. :-)
^^^ me thinks this is highly more likely.
I would be pissed if my boyfriend (who I don't share finances with) decided that "hey, since it's only a couple hundred dollars of HER money a month, I'll go ahead and lease her a Rolls Royce". But I think I agree with you more, bravo set it up.

Or it was an agreement w/ or he's friends with someone at the dealership. If you think about it, it is good advertising for rolls - "look, it's only a few hundred more than a merc, it's totally affordable".

I think you might be on to something... she did mention in that same blog post (I feel so lame even typing that out) that she designed a "Gretchen Cristine" limited addition phantom for the dealership. I really want to meet the person that has enough money to buy a Rolls Royce and then wants the "Gretchen Cristine" one, so I can punch them in the neck.

I have to go back and watch but did anyone catch Gretchen talking about being in a "furry" over Vicki when I'm assuming she meant fury?
I can totally see Vicki and Don both cheating the last few years of their marriage. Remember when Vicki commented years ago that it had been two years since they had sex? I thought then and there that she meant two years since they had sex with each other because no way did they go that long without getting any. Especially Don.
I wouldn't care what Vicki did, BUT she was such a beast to her daughter all the time about being pure. Brianna was 18-20 years old and Vicki was still hounding her about not sleeping with her boyfriend of 4 years, not going out of town to the concert, etc. So I guess in Vicki's world a woman should remain a virgin until she's married and then after anything goes? Cheating, threesomes, all the woo-hooing your friends can stand?
I was torn between cringing and loving the dirt Lauri was spilling. Mostly cringing because it came from Lauri. I didn't think she had it in her.

Once the hymen is busted anything goes apparently.

Vicki has always been a bit too friendly with other women's husbands.
"The phone call that Vicki took, I will later discover to have been George's ex-wife' mother.
The following day, I received a call from Jeanna Keough telling me that Vicki had received an email from George's ex-wife's mother summarizing their conversation. She had instructed Vicki to give me the email. Vicki, however, decided to forward that email to everyone except me! Jeanna forwarded the email to me. It contained nothing but bulls--- slanderous lies and served no purpose other than to harass George and I on behalf of George's ex-wife. Keep in mind, Vicki was very aware of all of the problems George and I had been experiencing with his ex."
