Mob Wives Chicago Recap: Talk to the Hand ’cause It Just Fell Off


Nora leans over and asks if they’re “talking in the third person, because I am right here.”  Huh?  Pia tells her that’s not what “talking in the third person” means and I die laughing.  Nora gets up and walks to the bathroom and quickly comes back to say that she has food poisoning and must now go.  C-Wow’s idea to fix the food poisoning is doing tequila shots.  Yeah, those tequila shots.  They always make me NOT want to hurl. 

C-Wow tries to stop her from leaving, but Nora can’t not leave without saying something about Renee’s being late.  Pia tells everyone to not be surprised, because this is normal for Nora.  Leah follows Nora down and they all pass Renee who is finally gracing the party with her presence.  Nora’s crying to Leah that she doesn’t feel good and Leah tries to assure her she won’t let this be what Icky Gunvalson would call a “gangbang”. 

Renee comes in to see what the hell just happened.  Pia’s girlfriend tells her what went down and Renee says she has “scared motherfucker syndrome”.  Renee wants her to come back, because she wants to tear her ass apart.  C-Wow goes to call Nora to see what’s going on and how to get her back there.  Leah thinks this is crazy talk.  Leah, stop being so damn level-headed!!  We don’t want a level-headed show.  We want DRAMA! 

Pia and Renee are chatting inside about Nora while C-Wow and Leah talk to Nora on the phone.  Renee says she normally wouldn’t want to have other people see her talk to Pia in public, but she’s giving her a chance right now.  Renee tells Pia that she doesn’t like her based on what everyone else has had to say about her.  How grown up of you to let everyone else around you make your mind up about someone.

Nora comes back to the party with the excuse that she had to leave because she’s dealing with a lot, what with her dad coming back from the dead and all.  Leah notes the rage showing in Renee’s eyes as Renee bolts over there to start shit with Nora.

She wants to test Nora’s balls to see how big they are.  Renee just starts in on Nora while Nora sits there doing the Taco Bueno hand. 

Blah Blah Blah

Nora tell us that Renee can “talk to the hand, because the hand is now missing”.  Sometimes this show just makes fun of itself.  Renee wants to see where Nora’s balls are to which Nora replies, “They’re not in your mouth!”  Did she just tell her off?  I’m not sure what that was supposed to mean.

No, they’re in hers!

Leah seems confused about what’s going on and does nothing to stop it.  I thought you weren’t going to let anyone screw up the party, Leah?  Nora cries at Renee for pointing in her face, so Pia takes this as a loose segue into the dancing revelation.  “Why did you point your finger at me when you were a dancer, too?” 

Sssshhh…  Did you hear that whistling?  It’s the sound of the wind passing through all of their heads.

Nora screams that she never danced.  Oh Nora.  When someone calls you out on a truth, you need to just take it and own it.  Instead, Nora stands up to say that she’s not at all like Pia.  Pia says she’s worse, because all she does is lie.  Nora then says, “You danced for 15 years, you whore!”  Uh oh.  Swiftly, a hand flies upside Nora’s head and then we go to commercial.  Fuckers. 

C-Wow is all confused over this whole thing.  So am I, C-Wow.  So am I.  Nora sits down and then stands back up to fling her hands in Pia’s face like a cat on a scratching post.

Slappity slap slap!

C-Wow asks Nora why she would let Pia hit her in her face.  She wants her to hit her back.  Wait…what?  I thought this fighting pissed you off?  Those Vh1 producers must be chirping in her ear again.  Renee is waiting in the hall ala Teresa at the fashion show.  She starts doing some strange mocking laugh in Nora’s face and then when she doesn’t get the reaction she wants, she starts shoving Nora violently.  That’s when the asshole bouncers come in and try to break it up.  Nora calls it an ambush.  Oh my, could this show try any harder to be the RHONJ?

    I had absolutely no plans to watch this show, I didn’t even watch the original Mob Wives, but one sleepless night I came across this little gem, and (it kills me to admit it) I faithfully watch it. C-Wow’s comment about using your fist instead of your words makes sense, however when someone makes an accusation like Nora did in a room full of people, I would probably do exactly what Renee did. Nora reminds me of that bitchy girl from high school who tries to come off nice but in reality is the root of all rumors and drama. And p.s. I am totally with you on the Leah love!!

    Nora is a train wreck and I can’t stop watching her ….

    Your father (the murderer) who is so classy is dead….leave his body alone and get on with your life. I assume she doesn’t speak with the rest of the family who had him buried without telling her. LOL…

    She is going to get her ass kicked big time if she keeps her mouth open with these horrible things she says about father rape and losing your child….Renee is not someone I would mess with because she is crazy too.

    This is my new guilty pleasure…give me these girls over Theresa and the gang any night.

    C-Woww totally instigated that Nora pile-on. Pia was being cordial to Nutcase Nora, but C-Woww kept egging her on to confront NN right there and now. (I thought she didn’t want any fights at her party?) NN does not know when to shut her mouth and Renee is going to wipe the floor with her. I can’t wait till next week, damn it’s getting better episode by episode!!

    I agree @featherhead. C-Wow just wasn’t making any sense when she was talking about not hitting people and friends shouldn’t solve shit with their fists.
    When she was talking I cocked my head to the side and said, “Well that’s odd coming from her”

    I love that they feed these women alcohol for these parties. Before they even get there they seem to be loaded. I LOVE it!!!

    I also love Leah, she is so awesome! And Nora might need to shut her mouth because she got mushed in the face by Pia and scratched up by Renee and if you think Renee is going to let it go that she said her father used to molest her then she is sadly mistaken. but I am giddy about it and can’t wait for next week’s episode.

    I kinda love these women because there isn’t episode after episode of playing telephone until the end of the season party when something might happen. These gals are not playing around. I love Renee. And Nora is such a batshit crazy bitch! UGGH! However, I must say, between her inability to move her mouth correctly when she talks and her utter stupidity when it comes to the English language, her interviews are laugh out loud worthy.
    These ladies have the wannabes of the original MW beat by a mile, IMO. :D

    When Nutcase Nora acutally resumes her father’s body – How in the world does she think that she’ll know it is really him? I would think bones kinda look all the same… So if she wants a DNA test done to prove it is really her Dad, won’t that cost money? Which we know Nora doesn’t have since she had to borrow everything from Renee. I would love to know what’s up with her family and her? When Pia wasn’t mad at her and felt bad that Nora didn’t have anyone but her, I was yelling at the TV – there is usually a reason why she has nobody else!!

    Did anyone watch the two bonus clips of this episode at vh1.com? In the second one, Leah confronts Nora in the bathroom still upset about ITALIAN FEST! Nora tries to explain about her trust issues again. Why was Leah hitting Nora when she was down and in the midst of getting attacked by Pia and Renee? It seemed out of character for Leah, whom I love.

    This is the worst show in the history of television. Even bird diffoggio would not be dumb enough to watch it. I hope the producers go to jail for false entertainment. The producers had to violate some tv standard for quality with this show ha
    ve the fbi look into this
