Adriana arrives with Alex and Frederic, much to Joanna’s dismay.  Adriana looks great, but is feeling pretty nervous about running into Joanna.  She talks with Lisa about the night before – doesn’t apologize, mind you – and still blames Joanna for the entire thing.  Frederic pipes up that Joanna’s lucky he wasn’t there, because had he been, things would have turned out differently.   Like how?  They would have ended in some sort of tango contest?  Please. 

Later on, when everyone sits down, Karen’t remarks that Joanna was visibly upset when she realized that Adriana and Joe Francis were exactly one table away.  Not only that, Francis actually has the gall to come up to Joanna to say, “Can we be friends?”  Dude’s lucky he’s still walking after the night Joanna had.  Creep.  Alexia sits down next to Jo at one point and asks to hear her side of the story.  Why, I’m not sure, but I don’t trust Alexia’s motives.  Joanna starts to explain, but then Karen’t pulls an Alexia and comes over in the middle and Alexia accuses the dentist of being rude and tries to leave.  Joanna tells Alexia to sit back down, and Karen’t backs off, rolling her eyes at the silliness, so Alexia avoids losing her shit once more.  The rest of their conversation must have not been more interesting than Romain’s absence because we cut right to Lea announcing it.  Joanna sadly confirms that Romain didn’t want to come, and looks even more like she wants to cry in her salad. 

During the auction, Roy does NOT rip off his suit and start rocking out to “It’s Raining Men,” and that sucks.  But people bid, so Lea’s raising money and is optimistic about getting a million dollars that night.  Lea auctions something off having to do with Joe Francis, so his name is announced and Adriana starts loudly cheering him on.  This leads to both tables shouting insults not at each other, per se, but about each other and within earshot.  It’s pretty catty, it’s pretty shitty, and like I said in the minicap, I’m kind of on Joanna’s team with this one.  It’s not because she’s prettier, that was  jooooke, but it is because she’s a supermodel, not a grownup.  I expect less from her than I do from Adriana, who speaks five languages, runs and art gallery, and in general acts superior to a lot people.  If you’re gonna act that superior, Adriana, I expect your insults to be more interesting (and maybe in Chinese) than, “She’s not a super model, she’s a super whore.”  Your son heard that, by the way.  Way to teach him how to talk to women!

Joanna texts Romain that she loves him and wishes he were there, and when he doesn’t text her back, she starts crying.  Eventually she leaves in tears, and Adriana reigns disgustingly triumphant.

 She looks fucking great, though.

    Elsa getting ‘possessed by Norman’s SECOND spirit’ was hysterical!!! This woman in pure gold, and I just can’t forgive Bravo for not giving her more screen time with that dimwit.
    Leah – still an ASSHOLE. And now, in addition, lost ANY shreds of respect I might have still had for her. Really, Lea? This fricking Oompa-Loompa? This is your spiritual guru??? I realize that everything else she does, at least on the show, is done half-jokingly, but I am convinced that in this case she was totally serious. Why else would she expose herself to derision and laughter for letting this little con artist wrap her around his finger? She’s got no credibility left. I would love to know what Freda thinks of him – isn’t he poaching on her territory? I bet that were it up to her, she would have smacked him upside the head and kicked him out the front gate, then smacked Lea, too, for her stupidity. Mercy!
    Adriana – this woman is pure HATE personified. And she is also a total COWARD!!! I can appreciate people who do something I don’t agree with, as long as they stand by their words and deeds. She is a complete shit; one of those who takes no responsibility for anything they do, and always, ALWAYS finds a way to shift the blame to someone else, even if it means denying her own actions. I hate that. She’s shown herself to be a classless wannabe, who created a history about herself in her own head, and totally sold it to herself as truth. Too bad everybody else can see right thru it, bitch. Also, there were cameras there, so we can see the tape too, dumbass.

    Joanna’s not doing herself any good by texting Romaine in the middle of a gala — that’s the kind of thing that sounds really DRUNK when you receive it.

    forgive me if you can, but I’m totally Team Lea. Forever and ever, she can do no wrong. She knows Norman is nuts…for heaven’s sake, she COLLECTS them!

    I’d like to know more about Mama Elsa myself, mainly what the circumstances were that led to her facial situation. Did I say that politely? Trying to. Maybe I missed an explanation in a previous episode, or last season, but truly…what happened? Couldn’t she see the future and that face staring back at her? She found the wrong plastic surgeon in that box of sand.

    While I’ve never been a huge Romain fan (as I’ve mentioned before) because he’s a just touch too controlling and rather cold, I seriously hope that he’s done with the cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs “supermodel”.

    I don’t know why they keep calling her that!? Supermodels work with Emilio Pucci and Lanvin and Estee Lauder…they don’t do (at least not consistently) shoots in magazines of questionable caliber. Heidi Klum = supermodel; Miranda Kerr = supermodel; Joanna Krupa = sexy swimsuit/lingerie/etc model (but she has done a damn fine job making modeling a living), NOT supermodel.

    RHoM is lifting scripts from movies. (Plays). The 2-parter had me hating ka-Rent big time, her coniviving had me thinking of \Little Shop of Horrors\ and the song \ be a dentist\ . This week Norman, the weirdo was straight out of \A Mighty Wind\.

    I can’t link , but you tube gets you there.

    I’d have walked right up and cracked at least one of Norman’s pots.

    Watching people politely tolerate him was absolutely excruciating.

    Not to be a forum nazi, but i do believe the term “supermodel” refers to how much money a model makes and how well known she is, whether it’s Haute Couture or within a commercial area. :) Regardless of which, Jo has some serious anger issues. Her insecurities, probably stemming from her relationship, causes this displaced anger i would guess. Same goes for Adriana, she just does not seem like a genuinely happy person to me. I like them both though, with their flaws and all..but Adriana it’s time to stop the dramatic black hair. A softer more mature look would do you wonders ( as would a more mature attitude)

    I am so upset Bravo is trying to take this franchise down the NJ road. I want to like all these chickees.

    Joanna you have issues. No wonder you get a long with KarenT. Lea sets up the seating charts. She put Joe Francis and Adriana at the same table. Take your issues to her. I bet you are too afraid to go against her.

    We could all learn a lesson from Elsa. She didn’t care there was competition – she just took over and owned the situation without making a scene.

    @Christine,

    During a Season 1 episode of RHoM (I can’t remember which one specifically), Marysol told Elsa’s story about what happened to her face. Elsa was extremely beautiful when she was younger, but in the 60s, she started to get plastic surgery to maintain her looks. Marysol said that one of the plastic surgeons Elsa went to (for the first and last time) injected her with silicone which migrated from the site for which the filler was intended, as the injections were performed totally wrong. Since then, as a result, Elsa has been getting follow-up reconstructive procedures to fix the extensive damage that the silicone did to her face.

    I do not know what reconstructive procedures she subsequently had done, but topically observing her face, I think that the reconstructive procedures only could do so much to rectify the devastation caused by the incorrect silicone injection.

    I must say Elsa’s face seems to be softening or I am getting used to it.

    Are they doubling up the episodes this week as I saw the ad for Sunday’s show.

    Plastic surgery in the 60s sounds risky to me. I do love Elsa though, she scared me at first but she is really awesome. Her daughter is pretty cool most of the time too. I liked her description of standing in the corner doing shots and then looking up to see a fight.

    Ad and Jo are both crazy in their own way and both seem very angry on the inside. I never thought that someone as perfect seeming as Jo could be this nuts but I am sure there is a saying about pretty people somewhere that could explain that for me.

    Sorry, @Stuffed, but I must disagree.

    Merriam-Webster and the Free Online Dictionary define supermodel as: “An extremely successful and internationally famous fashion model.”

    Jo is not quite an “internationally known fashion model”, unless half naked, PETA, and bikini shoots count lol.

    Totally not trying to be a pain in the ass, either, so you know :-) It’s just as a fashion fanatic it irks me to no end to hear that temperamental monster called a “supermodel”!

    Didn’t Pricella Presley have that same thing done to her by some Argentinin Doc. She thought she was getting something better than botox and got industrial grade silicon. She certainly could have had work done at a reputable surgeon in the US. Can’t imagine why she would do that. She was really lovely and now she looks like wax left in the sun or something. Horrible and unfixable.

    @Alejandra I’m mad at Adriana too. And for the same reasons as you. Joanna’s just a bikini model that doesn’t even have enough sense to know she’s got a pretty enough mouth she doesn’t have to pay $ to get it turned it into a pool toy.

    Adriana’s a hot mess. But she’s got reasons. And started out as a mujer mas o menos decente that had some home training. Not to mention she’s got a brain. She just learned at a young age that’s not what people gave a fuck about. Kind of like happened with Charo. That’s secretly been 1 of the best classical guitarists alive for 300 yrs or something.

    I’m also mad at her because I said I couldn’t defend her slapping Joanna no matter what. And now it turns out Joanna put her hands on Adriana 1st. From behind. While Adriana was trying to get away from her. And drunk.

    So I can’t be on Joanna’s side of the fight part. If somebody grabs you from behind when you’re drunk there’s no way to prove it wasn’t a reflex. Which is how come you shouldn’t go grabbing drunk people from behind. Except Joanna doesn’t have enough sense to know that. For being dumb as a box of hair related reasons.

    Anyway Bravo needs to give Norman a regular job being on every episode of all the Housewives shows. He’d be great on RHNJ, following Teresa around chanting “double Vishnu to you” at her. He could be her and Midge’s new physical therapist!
