For some reason, slurring Sonja brings up the toaster oven photo shoot. Things get a little heated between Heather and Ramona. Is there anyone that cares about this toaster oven? It isn’t like she designed a car that runs on hydrogen or something. Even less appealing for a story line is a photo shoot for an appliance. Oh for the love of Time New Roman, Sonja starts arguing that Heather showed up with two fonts. It’s hard to know which is more ridiculous with Sonja–the sex talk or the toaster oven. If someone doesn’t change the subject, it’s eventually going to turn to her having sex with the toaster oven.
Lu walks away and Carole pulls Ramona aside, leaving Heather and Sonja to finish the conversation. After Sonja brings up James and the lunch friends comment, it seems clear that Sonja’s mostly pissed that James didn’t hit on her or take her seriously. Sonja’s mad that Heather told her to meet the hot logo guy, but he’s gay. Heather lets her know that James isn’t gay, he isn’t into Sonja.
Away from the table, Lu, Carole, and Ramona talk about Sonja having had too much to drink. Next, Cool Cat Carole is going to meet Russ, but Ramona isn’t welcome to tag along.
Ramona acts the calmest she’s ever been when she meets Russ. Surprisingly, she listened to Carole. Oh wait, no she didn’t. Ramona is doing so well until she starts going on and on about adoring Carole, that she more than adores Carole. It’s a little awkward, considering she’s engaged to Sonja.
How many boxes of wine have they consumed?
Sonja didn’t get the memo, so she acts like herself. She’s sloppy and flirting with Russ, then moves on to how hot and sexy Carole is. Russ jokingly asks Sonja if they’re competing for Carole. It’s getting to be a little too much.
Lu realizes nothing good is going to come of it, so she drags Sonja with her to figure out how to use the espresso machine. Sonja does know all about appliances, after all. Sonja moves onto the butler, and Carole and Russ move on to their time alone.
Don’t worry. The vet gave me a flea and tick dip.
The next morning, the ladies head to the beach. Ramona’s in her bikini and raring to go. Ramona asks Carole if Russ is still there and how much she wants Mary-O. She goes on and on about how it was supposed to be a girls trip and she should call Mary-O to tag along. It seems rude to complain about Russ stopping by after dinner since Carole invited everyone to join her and she doesn’t see Russ very often. Carole speaks up that she’s around their husbands all of the time without complaining, so shut up. Sonja backs her up.
If you like it, spread it!:

Lu totally got busted! I think a girls weekend is more fun with only girls, not husbands. Oh, I feel bad for the glass door that hot-head Heather ran into
i don’t know how much i like the new cast, have we seen any of the girls homes? why the eff not.
i’m waiting for them to win me over, i like Aviva that’s it but Bravo promised NYC to be like BH, it’s really not. not even the NY version of it. lol but who cares, Miami seems ALOT better.
Lulu getting busted as a dirty pirate whore was fun and all, but my favorite part of the show was when Carole was talking to Ramona about not embarrassing her and her boyfriend.
Carole: Ramona, DON’T say anything crazy!
Ramona: What, why would I say anything crazy? I’m not planning to say anything crazy. I’m just going to be me!
Carole: No, DON’T BE YOU!
I hope Lu used protection when she showed the group of Italians around the villa.
Some of the stuff they do is starting to cross a line. Between making you laugh because it’s so trashy. And making you go aww. And feel sad. Because it’s these older ladies putting brown powder on their stomach. That’s not even sticking out. But they’re hoping the cameras turn it into an optical illusion anyway.
Except there’s a camera in there filming them do it.
Did anyone notice when Tomas arrived at the house at the end of the episode and was talking french to his supposed girlfriends Cat, Bravo didn’t sub it in english?
He was talking to Cat about another woman and that he “didn’t want to be like all her others exes because she has horrible relationships with them”. Now, i’m guessing he’s talking about Luann.
First of all, that doesn’t strike me as the sort of conversation you have with your current girlfriend.
Secund, I just think it’s weird that Bravo didn’t use that stir sh*t up a little more. He basically admits having sex with her!
Hope Jacques didn’t miss that part
Ahhhh Lu– I must again affirm my love of that Cat Walk if Guilt tou dod– all dressed up and doing your best “I am sooo not hung-over. I am sooo innocent. Gee can I do anything to help you” posture. I know it well Lu (she loves when we call that). I pulled that one may a time in my younger Cawfee days–didint work on Mama Cawfee and Papa Cawfee.
This is going to be be great fall out.
These ladies are no different than anyone else. Money can’t buy you class. Maybe everyone should start calling the Countess Pocahontas. Me thinks she likes to play Cowboys and Indians a lot. Gross.
So, when my skanky friend makes out with 2 guys at a redneck Ohio bar in a new minidress from Old Navy and Payless wedges ….she is white trash. But, if I plop her in St. Barths on a table, in a used pantyless pirate costume and Manolo Blaniks…she is elegant.
Last all…. The Carole and Ramona chat is now my favorite line this season… No, Don’t Be You!
I love how delusional Ramona is, stating that she is not crazy. It reminds me of what Sonja said when she came on the show, if you think Ramona is crazy now, you should have seen her years ago. So is this Ramona’s way of toning down the crazy for the camera’s?
LastCall not Last all, damn auto-correct, haha!
@realhousewivesfan: If I’m not mistaken, we have seen the inside of Carole’s home when she invited the girls over and when she was speaking to the neighbor. I think we’ve seen the inside of Aviva’s home, or atleast bathroom and her home in Miami. I’m not so certain of Heather’s place though, but then again we haven’t seen much of her hubby either.
As for me, I’m a bit over the Ramonagrio and SonJa love fest and the blasted toaster oven. For the love all that is holy please stop with the toaster oven. Someone with common sense speak up and tell SoJja the truth about her business idea. Oh wait, no one on this cast has common sense besides maybe Carole.
Speaking of Carole, why is she on this show of disfunctional people? Is it for publicity? If so, she needs to fire her agent for suggesting that this was a good idea.
I really like Carol she is a good addition to this show..but I don’t think ths show has helped her much . The gossip writers wrote that Carol is no longer with her sweet guy….I hope that they are wrong, because he seemed really down to earth and normal..
On Sonja..I hope she didn’t sink too much of her own $$ into this stupid toaster oven venture…

Like the article said.. if Carole did date Clooney ..wouldn’t there be pictures???
I haven’t watched the RHONYC since its inception year. I have to admit I’m THRILLED that I decided to start watching again (due to the new blood). I look forward to each episode.
I’ve gotta agree about the funny (hiLARious!)/saaaad (aww I’m a touch embarrassed for you) dynamic that @kthxbai brings up. It’s just…odd. By the way, kthxbai, I’ve been meaning to tell you for like a year how much I love your “name”. Super fun and clever – and there are lots of good ones!
Sonja better sell a lot of cookbooks and toaster ovens…

Well done, BelowSeaLevel. I needed to get another perspective, because this was a subtly crazy episode. I thought maybe I imagined the whole thing.
There’s just no way this Depp-lite story was real, right? Lu has been so boring this season, they made it up for her, right? I’m not fond of her at all, but she has never struck me as stupid. Bringing a guy back, waking up Heather to see him, then coming up with that “spontaneous” phone conversation where she tells her friend to lie for her…while wearing a microphone and on camera? She does know she’s not the only American who can speak French, n’est-ce pas?
It’s all very cheesy. They’re flashing their middle-aged hoochies at strangers in a bar? AND BRAGGING ABOUT IT ON CAMERA? I’m with you, ohiomom: if all that separates white trash from these women are labels and location, I want my money back.
Lu’s only worth 2 mil? The Count must have something totally trashtastic on her!

Elegance is learned, mah friend!
bubblesballentine..if old Lu is only worth 2 mill….what do you think abour Sonjia at -20 mill.????
It’s no wonder she can’t afford panties, TV Junkie!

@ Derek H – I love Reality Tea but I don’t go there on my computer. I keep getting viruses from RT. I use my work computer for them. They have better virus protection. lol
PS Don’t hate on me, IT guys. I haven’t killed my work computer yet.
I thought the pirate looked more like Ozzy from Survivor instead of Johnny Depp.

@Yas #6 Tomas arrived with Luann’s “dear friend Cat” at the end. His alledged girlfriend was Carole at LaTi.
Oooooh, the shizzz hit the fan tonight mah friend.
“The guys sitting at the table probably threw up authentic style when they got a look at Sonja’s cooleyhopper flasher dancing.” That line was sublime. And given their expressions, I am not too sure that wasn’t far from the truth.
@ohiomom – exactly! After all, dahling, if they cannot see that dress you are lifting up to flash your hoo-haa at strangers in a bar is a Diane Von Fursternberg, then you are just an ordinary whorah…
@realhousewivesfan What do you like about Aviva? I want to punch her.
@2muchbravo I didn’t even notice until you pointed that out bc IMO Cat and that St Barths Carol look like the same person. Why did Johnny Depp pirate boy come with Cat? I think he’s a gigolo. Do people still say that? Ok, man whore.
@Romo, I can’t speak for anyone else, but I like Aviva because she was responsible for the two most memorable lines of the season: “Quite frankly, you’re both white trash” and “it’s about THE KIDS WITH NO LEGS.” I also like her ice-queen uptight persona because she loses all of her etiquette when she gets all batshit, as she has been the past two weeks. I’ll wait for @belowsealevel’s mini-cap and recap for this week’s episode, but ultimately, I love the fact that Aviva is the queen of the condescending put-down.
I love the word “cooleyhopper”……….. I’m using it every chance I get.
@LAC…I hope those pirate costumes were designer. I would hate to think they slipped on something from Party City.
I hope they wore they own undies with those pirate costumes. Can you imagine how many women have worn and danced in them? And, that may have been after Tomas got to them. Ewwww.
