Vanderpump Rules Recap: Can I Get a DAY-UM?


Inside track: the reason Lisa knows for certain that LL isn’t in a good place is because it’s absolutely true.  That is the reason she wasn’t made a regular cast member.  It’s also what makes the fact that she’s dating Jax or on the show at all very, very sad…

Elsewhere, Katie shows up to Stassi’s new apartment, white wine in tow (smart girl) to talk about their issues.  The girls weep it out, and it’s kinda sweet, actually.  Katie explains that she was simply looking out for Stassi by objecting to the fast-track relationship with Frank, and she’s hurt that Stassi would confuse friendship for nastiness.  Stassi, in turn, admits SOME responsibility by explaining that she was indeed a headcase in the wake of learning about Jax’s lies and losing her apartment and dog (even though it wasn’t her dog).  The girls achieve some sort of resolution and proceed to my favorite part of any fight – make up drinking!

I LOVE YOU – YER MY BESH FRIEND!

Commercial!

Later, at Sur, shit’s going down!  And you all get to be privy to the restaurant information vine.  See, restaurants, like most other businesses, aren’t always transparent about when someone’s about to be fired.  But, for those not in the know, there are obvious clues. 

  1. Present, but not working: the person in question is at work at the time of their scheduled shift, but is asked to have a sit-down first.
  2. Shouldn’t be present, but is: there is someone else working said shift, but usually doesn’t – may look confused and bewildered as to why they’re in a different part of the restaurant at a different time.
  3. Scandalous event in the recent past: usually this sort of situation is provoked by a series of small events or one large scandalous event that everyone is talking about, but heretofore management has yet to respond to. 
  4. Said event resulted in you being sent home: if you’ve been sent home and called in for a meeting at some later point, the meeting will not be about anything positive.

If you fit one of these criteria, you’re probably fine, but if you fit all, you’re probably toast.  I’d start looking for a new job – perhaps at Toast?

Unfortunately for Frank, everyone knows that he lipped off pretty badly to a customer a few days before, and it wasn’t the first time.  Joey, a new bartender we haven’t yet seen, is working Frank’s station in the lounge, and Frank, not in uniform, is heading into a meeting with Lisa. 

Not looking good, Homey.

Jax and Peter head over to Joey to find out the sitch, and it is HILARIOUS, Gasmii.  Apparently, a group of people came into the lounge on Saturday and were ordering double martinis.  Oy, already I hate these people.  In case you don’t know, a martini is already 2.5 ounces of alcohol if it’s made correctly.  No one orders double martinis because THEY WOULDN’T FIT IN THE DAMN GLASS.  Already, these people sound horrible.  Frank, however, charged them all double the price, which, as Jax correctly points out, makes them $30 drinks.  Main Douche apparently got very upset when he received the bill, and started screaming and swearing at Frank.  Frank, who is kind of my hero right now, called the dude a peasant, and threatened to give the guy an atomic wedgy in front of his “ugly” girlfriend. 

Can I get a “DAY-UM”?

    Don’t you think “as Lisa’s publicist” would advise that it’s not a good look to TELEVISE that fact that two of your employees had sex in the bathroom?!

    Also, that’s Stassi’s dad, not stepdad. He’s the one who competed with her on the Amazing Race. Thouh, on AR Stassi’s step mom competed too. But now it looks like her mom and dad are back together? Confusing.

    This show is even trashier than I expected. And I watch Shahs of Sunset. So you know I set the bar high.

    Yeah those were both Stassi’s biological parents. Maybe they’re just friendly after so many years divorced? But they did look quite comfortable. Her dad is an architect in New Orleans and last episode she said her mom lived in California. Her dad was a giant ass on the Amazing Race.

    Fun new drinking game! Take a shot every time Stassi says “literally”. You will be bombed before the first SUR empolyee tells us how good looking they all are!

    Let’s hope someone has gotten inside Stassi’s pants and tied her tubes. You would think she would be a better human being, but then you meet her drunk and let’s rip on our daughter parents and I see where her attitude comes from.

    did you see the previews for next week? That LL saying she had unprotected sex with Jax and then Jax having to tell Stassi some bad news? my bet is LL is knocked up, or tells him she’s knocked up to keep him and F up his getting back with Stassi

    A. “So sut up.”
    B. “An orange peanut? For me?!”

    These two gems put you in the “Best recap of any show I’ve read all year” category.
