Hello Trashies! Welcome back to episode 10! I can’t believe we have come so far and yet so little has happened!
Siggy, Jac and Rosie meet at a bar for drinks to discuss the book signing the previous night. Jac says that Rosie and Kathy failed to tell anyone they were coming. Girl you knew because Delores told you they were going to show up and then you stood nearby trying to act like you were taking selfies so you could eavesdrop.
Also what is wrong with your face in this scene
Siggy thinks Kathy and Rosie are great and gives hope to the situation by saying that if Teresa can forgive Melissa she can forgive anyone. I am not sure if that is great logic. I think a large part of their new found friendship is Grandpa Eyebrows and that Melissa seemingly made a sincere effort to be family while Tre was away. Siggy is glad that Rosie and Kathy put forth the effort to show up because the whole situation is a big pimple that needs to be popped. That is a gross analogy. Jac says that Tre is mad at Kathy for things that she has done herself and she isn’t so sure Tre is actually going to show up for this lunch. True, if we are talking about the shit talking alone BUT on the accusation that they only want to be family when the cameras are rolling is much harder to bring forth particularly without breaking the fourth wall.
Siggy (Vanzant) help me fix my family.
Siggy says she will do everything in her power to help.
Melissa and Joe go and get Botox together. The couple that Botox’s together stays together. I don’t think this was the sort of bonding activity that Siggy had in mind when she said to stoke the fires of love but sure OK. Melissa says he’s hot now, imagine him without wrinkles… FIRE! OK, these two are truly made for each other. Before Joe loses his Botox virginity, they discuss the current state of affair with the Wakile’s. Apparently, Kathy reached out the Melissa because she feels like she is being shut out and she hasn’t seen her in a while. Joe points out that’s not their fault. No but they were your bitching buddies for many seasons before this renewed Gorga love so you can understand where they might not be feeling the love anymore.
Next up, Potato People are Engaged
Ashley comes into the kitchen to tell her mom she is going to look at apartments with Pete. So now that we know the pregnancy is going to be announced soon it’s easy to tell she’s self-conscious of her belly. Exhibit A, the strategically placed sweater.
Normally she would wear sweats but I need to hold this sweater in front of me to hide my baby bump. Also I am not going to question why my BF is wearing a tie to go look at apartments when he picks me up because I know we are going to get engaged.
then this happened
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, producers I do not care about Assly. Please do not try and make this a spin-off. Afterwards they gather at home to celebrate with Jac, Chris and CJ. Jac is excited she didn’t get engaged to a drug dealer. After some champagne, they decide to spread the good news and start posting on social media. First call is to Albie.
He get it from his mama
Also we learn that Pete and Albie went to high school together and Vito was Albie college roommate. OH, OK that makes sense.
She’s your problem now Pete, even though you still live with us
Sig keeps it real in an Alligator clip and no make-up elegance to film the engagement news.
While Melissa and Teresa are power walking in matching outfits to discuss the engagement, but the talk soon leads to Joe and his impending time.
Sisters, sisters, sisters there were never such devoted sisters
They both agree that women are stronger than men and in rare moment I agree with Teresa, that women need to rule the world! She downplays how terribly Joe is handling everything but does say that she hopes he detoxes in jail. Melissa in her talking head interview says that Tre is the heavyweight champion of hiding pain but thinks that camp made Teresa get more in touch with her feelings. Teresa says she thinks she was able to deal with her sentencing better because in the back of her mind she kept thinking it wasn’t going to actually happen.
Siggy comes over to get jeans she ordered from Melissa’s boutique to discuss Tre and plan the next trip. Melissa says that since she is back their relationship has only gotten better and they are getting closer in trust. Since Joe cannot leave, the state and Tre cannot go far, Melissa/the producers suggest Vermont for their next housewives trip. Sig isn’t so jazzed she wants to go somewhere warm and have fruity drinks. Plus, she has seen the other housewives trips and wants to know how she got the short end of the stick on this one. Tre comes by and is reluctant to go, she really wants Joe to go so they can have alone time before he leaves but he can’t leave the state. Apparently Joe and Chris are coming too, is this weird? Was this supposed to be a couple’s trip?
Must be beautiful this time of the year, all that snow
Jac comes to see Delores’ new gym and brings a cheeseburger.
