You guys already know how I feel about teenagers being disrespectful. So, this scene rubbed me all kinds of wrong and I actually wanted to smack Sydney in the mouth on Renee’s behalf. Anyway, both of these kids could have benefitted from the trifecta of discipline in their formative years.

Back to Karen. Now that her book has been published to mediocre reviews and lawsuits on behalf of her father’s victims, and her spa has opened, she is ready to uproot her daughter from Arizona and bring her to Staten Island. Since she knows her daughter is not keen on leaving her father, uncle, grandparents, all of her friends, and the only life she has known to move to New York and watch her mother famewhore, she has decided to get her baby’s daddy’s assistance. She figures if she can get him to move up here, Karina would be more accepting of the situation that she has no say in anyway.

So, we meet David. Watching David was very distracting to me because I kept expecting him to break into song and had to repeatedly tell myself that he isn’t that guy from Fine Young Cannibals. He just looks a lot like him. Only, not quite as hot.

Anyway, they talk about the last fight they had in which he called her out for abandoning her family. Then they drink wine and stare at each other. Thank God, the producers cut away to the outside of the apartment and the lights being turned off because no one really needs to see what happened next.

Drita goes to visit her friend Nicole and introduces her to Lucky. She talks about the making up with Karen. She wants to do it because she wants to move forward. She doesn’t see any reason that the two of them can’t just be civil to each other and not rehash the past. In her mind, she and Lee are divorcing so what’s there to hash out? She says that while she has no problem with Karen, she just can’t when it comes to CousinSuckUp – and really can you blame her? She says something about chewing on her face like a leach and I am a little freaked out by the glint of hatred in her eyes.

Karen and CousinSuckUp are playing pool and Karen grosses out the nation by talking about how she always thought it would be great to have sex on a pool table. Look, if I had to suffer through that visual image, then so do you. Anyway, she and David got it on. She thinks there may still be feelings there, and wants to see how it goes. CousinSuckUp says something trite about commitment and thankfully, we are out.

Carla and Joe are working out at the gym together. She drops an anvil on his head about his not spending as much time with the kids. And he tells her he has a girlfriend. Not just a girlfriend, but an exclusive relationship. Considering that he wasn’t exclusive when they were married, Carla is a bit miffed. She says that Joe already missed so many years with his kids while they were growing up and now he has some young chippy that is further taking his attention away from them.

3So, you aren’t just working out with dumb bells, you’re dating them too?

Then, Joe pisses me off by saying that the girlfriend has already met the kids. Seriously? You just got out of prison and haven’t seen your kids since they were babies. And, you are already introducing these poor kids to some stranger that you have no idea how long will be in their lives? Carla was totally right not to trust him or jump back into any kind of romantic entanglement with him. What a douche!

If there were ever a situation where in which I had to choose between cheese and chocolate, cheese would win hands down. I spend my days writing blog posts for the multi-housing industry and my nights harshly judging people who appear on reality shows. If there is the odd weekend in which I am not working, or feeling smugly satisfied about my lack of my own reality show, I will build a blog for my friends. Then, I will spend the rest of my weekend conning other friends, family members, and general acquaintances to donate their talents to help out. I am shameless in my love of free stuff, blue humor, and great or even terrible fiction. I tell my friends that I watch reality shows to feel better about myself. In actuality, I watch them because I am vastly entertained by the things people will do to be famous. When Flipit asked me to join the TVGasm family, I was honored. When he said that I would be paid in Cheetos and M&M's, I was totally in.

    Big Ang’s son creeps me out, I hope he’s not going to be on her show. 23? – he looks 43 to me.

    Agreed feather head! I for one will be yelling at my tv for Drita to punch the shit out of Karen…or CSU.

    I hate men who sacrifice their children for some poon. You’ve been away almost these children’s entire lives and you want to spend time with a girl. It just doesn’t make sense to me at all. Good for Carla for being strong.

    I’m sorry Carla, but a chickee upsets you, but you were okay marrying and having kids with a criminal. Get real.

    I hope Drita keeps her cool with Karen. This is filmed and actions speak louder than words if she wants to be a better role model to her children.

    The girls got spanked and my brothers both took a tour of the kitchen cabinets more than once. :) Mom gave up on wooden spoon when it broke on my younger brother and he laughed.

    I have to say in Carla’s defense, she may not have known that Joe was a criminal when she married him. They met at work – at a white collar job. So, she may not have knowingly married a criminal the way Renee and Drita did. And by the time she found out it was too late – she was already married and had twins with him.

    As for Drita as much as I would love to see Karen catch a beating, I am hoping that Drita is the bigger person. Mainly because it would really piss Karen off is she couldn’t push Drita’s buttons. She’d get flustered like she did with Carla and her arguments and aggression were just all over the place.

    sigh…I guess you guys are right. Drita should be the mature one and talk it out with Karen. It won’t make me happy but I guess it’s for the best. :(

    It would make me super happy to see Karen get her ass beat. The only thing is, I want Drita to come out the better person. And after that restaurant sit down between Carla and Karen, I think Karen would totally make an ass of herself if Drita stayed calm. She wouldn’t know what to do and would just start jumping from topic to topic in order to try to remain in charge of the argument while simultaneously making herself look like the ass that she is.
    That would be more glorious than even an ass beating. Plus, I want Drita to succeed in the goal she set for herself to stop fighting.

    Plath..you’re going to recap Chicago Mobwives? Awesome!
    I found out that my great grandfather Cleaman worked in the Al Capone ?gang? for a bit. He got shot at and the guy he was with was killed so he quit that bitch.
    That’s all I know. I never knew him or my grandfather.
    I found out about it 2 months ago from my Gramdma’s brother’s son at a funeral.
    That’s all.

    Yeah Drita should talk to Karen. “What did the 5 fingers say to the face”

    Ughh Karen. That was just gross ! They spoke about their daughter for like 5 seconds & went straight to getting busy. I think Karen can’t find a man & she’s going to settle for David.
    I loved the scene with the puppies, so cute ! As far as Joe he is a jerk & Carla is smart to not get involved with him again.
