Uh-oh, it appears Dave frequents the Peppermint Hippo as he and Pia are all “Oh my gawd, how are you?!”  Renee’s face is priceless.  They are really bad at hiding the circumstance surrounding their acquaintance.  “You knew me when I was bartending at that place…It’s been a long time.”  Dave is wiping sweat from his brown while he laughs like a guy who’s about to be caught in a classless lie by his classy girlfriend.

C-Wow and Renee are together at some cafe.  Huh?  Apparently they’re friends now.  C-Wow drops the bomb that Leah is coming, too.  Leah shows up and C-Wow makes her introductions.  Renee approves of Leah’s classy hair and thinks she’s cool.  Renee asks if Leah knows about the brawl in the fancy joint.  Renee tells them about Pia showing up at her store without any notice.  Renee’s not here to judge her, but she’s a stripper.  Leah, being my girl, tells Renee that while she hates what she did to C-Wow, she’s not going to knock her for doing what she’s got to do to make money.  Leah thinks Renee seems down to earth, but she’s known Pia since they were kids and she’s not going to judge her for being a dancer.  Renee tells them that Dave and Pia know each other and Leah says that maybe they screwed.  Renee thinks that, too.  No kidding.  Leah isn’t worried about it, because Pia is harmless. 

Leah doesn’t want the drama around her.  Period.  We’ll see about that.  Most of the time, when someone says that, they wind up joining an argument uninvited on a patio at someone else’s house and blows it up bigger than it needed to be so that later on, at a re-mix release party, the pot they stirred can overflow and cause an inappropriately public yelling match.  Not that I’ve seen that before.

Nora, Pia, and Nora’s friend Julie are chilling with drinks at Norah’s.  Nora’s going to have a memorial party for her “presumed deceased” father who IS NOT A HITMAN.  I guess in mob world, we throw parties for dead non-hitmen instead of parties for 15-years-too-late name changes and vow renewals to save a failing marriage.  Nora puts it out there that Renee is suspicious of Pia and Dave.  Apparently, she knows Dave as a kid from the neighborhood.  

Yeah, we knew each otha’ from da neighborhood.

Back at Renee’s apartment, she’s getting classed up with an entire bottle of perfume and hairspray to go see Dave for dinner.  I thought they lived together?  Why do they have to meet up for dinner to talk about this Pia business?  I’m so confused.  Maybe “live together” is like “going to college”.  Renee tells Dave that he’s going to need a drink after what she saw at the shop yesterday.  Dave laughs, which tells me he’s seen Pia’s whoohaw.  He says he’s known Pia for 20 years and judging by Pia’s face, she could have been stripping legally for the past 20 years.  She used to work for friends of his, but not at a strip joint.  He didn’t actually say “not at a strip joint”, but he says he honestly didn’t know that’s what she did for a living until now.  Maybe it’s editing, but it seems he already knew she was a stripper since Renee didn’t say she was.  She asks Dave if she has “retard” written across her forehead, to which he replies “I can’t see it, it’s covered by your blonde hair.”  Dave looks away when he says that he’s never seen Pia strip.  Renee’s going to throw him through the window if she finds out he’s done anything.  They get into a classy cussing match about who’s more of a badass.  Renee says Pia is next on her hit list of classless strippers.

I gotta say, I kinda like how no one really beats around the bush on this show.  They just cut right to it.  No mind games, no baiting, no passive-aggressiveness.  It’s refreshing in a thuggish kind of way.

Julie, Pia, and Renee are all invited to the dead daddy party.  Julie is wearing the same sweater that I noticed Nora was wearing on the premier episode, back when I thought I might like Nora.  I guess Julie didn’t bring her luggage.  They start to order, but Nora asks if they are waiting for Renee.  It’s seemingly 5 minutes into it and Nora’s already fuming over the fact that Renee is disrespecting something so important as drinks for a unconfirmed dead dude.  Renee shows up and Nora is pissed.  The others try to make excuses for her about the traffic and location, but Nora’s not having it.  This is the best time for Renee to want to bring up her Pia and Dave suspicions.  But, not now.  Later.  Now this is very Housewifey.

Let’s talk about this really dramatic shit.  But not now.  Later.  But remember now, we’ll talk about it later.

About

Hi, there!  About me...well, let's see.  I like to think of myself as an enigma, wrapped in a riddle, shrouded in a mystery.  Sometimes my personality doesn't even reconcile in my own head.  I'm a really caring and sensitive person, but I have a dark, dry, sarcastic sense of humor which tends gives the impression that I have no soul.  I am married to a great guy who shares my sense of humor and we have a son who, both fortunately and unfortunately, has his mother's personality.   I'm an independent contractor who works from home and keeps the kid all day, everyday.  I've loved to write my whole life and have big, never-to-be-achieved dreams of one day writing a book.  My favorite past time is laughing, which is what brought me to this site.  I can laugh at almost anything, so beware.

    @Sugar Bush, please get out of my head. I was just thinking I needed some sort of translator to understand what Leah is saying. I hope that they are bad words because that would only solidify my love for her.

    I loved that she said she was ready for a fight because her hair was slicked back but had on the biggest earrings I have ever seen. Ummm not sure how they fight in Chicago but earrings are something that’s easily tugged on.

    Why are boys so dumb? Dave you are and adult and I am sure that your girlfriend knows that you have been to a strip club. Why not just say well yeah me and the guys have been out to a few strip joints in our time and yes Pia has been there.

    Now I see how people feel when they watch RHOA, the Midwestern accents are tough for me to digest. It hurts my ears a bit.

    There has to be a reason why Pia is running up Nora’s ass. There’s no way I’m going to befriend the person who called me a cunt whore before my friend who was sticking up for me. Yes we got into a bit of a fight but we were obliterated and made a mistake.

    All in all the show is getting better…and I was thankful we had alot of Leah this week.

    @Sheesh (since we talked about it on the last recap) did you get a chance to catch Love and Hip Hop Atlanta?

    What you are hearing is a HARD Chicago accent.
    When Leah is talking I hear all of my elders in my head and it grates on MY nerves!
    I always say about Iowa…we’re so boring we don’t even have an accent.

    Classy, I have watched Atlanta and I’m sooooo in.
    Joseline is a man. man. man.
    Scrappy’s mom is…whoa…physiochotic…pimp?

    Thank you for highlighting the potty mouth of our favorite Classy Chick Renee. I almost fell off my couch when she actually said “I don’t talk like that” even though not 15 seconds before she was all “fuck this, fuck that, I don’t fuckin’ talk like that you fuckin’ classless whore!” It’s like she doesn’t even know what she’s saying. And I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – someone that constantly has to point out how classy she is is most definitely the epitome of classless. That’s right, Renee, I’m talking to you.

    And what is with the mouths on these women? Heaven knows that I have a mouth on me that embarrasses sailors at times, but even I’m uncomfortable with the language these broads are constantly using. Has there ever been a “diary time” where they haven’t had to bleep at least two words in the 15 seconds of the interview? They are just swearing for the sake of swearing at this point. And when I say it’s too much, it must be too much.

    This show is okay, the recaps are better. Love and Hip Hop Atlanta is amazing! I don’t know who any of those people are, but they put it all out there.

    Renee is trying too hard to be “classy”, that it just makes her look like a stuck up bitch. Which I think she might be… How does she know Pia is a “hoe bag” ? She’s a stripper not a prostitute. I don’t mind Pia, she’s kind of stupid when it comes to Nora, who clearly talked shit about her. I felt bad for Pia because even when Renee left dinner early she tried to make excuses for her. She was clearly just trying to be her friend. Leah is my favorite so far but then again I liked Karen from the original Mobwives at the beginning of the first season & look where that ended…

    Worst show on tv it gets more stupid every week . They should rename it dumb and dumber. The ratings are horrible. The wrists must be 8 years old. It sets cable back 30 years.

    I just watched today’s episode (I won’t spill) but as of today – Renee is my new favorites, followed by Leah. Can’t wait till the new recap! I taped love & hip hop so I could see the rest of mw and I ended up getting sucked in too.
