Mama and the Diva jump into to defend the Juice from these pesky accusations of homophobic slander with more evidence of his love and respect for gay men. Low-Magnon adds that the whole thing was really the fault of Nina Van Ho for creating drama out of the Juice's harmless remarks. And, there you have it; the three popular girls have explained away the entire incident just like they were in the principal's office. Mama has given Miss Thang her charming smile, and the Diva has fluttered her lashes in his direction. Clearly this should be enough to convince the most stalwart of men that the episode was just a big misunderstanding, and the Diva is nothing if not confident when she smiles and says happily, "Next question, Andy Cohen."
Nice try, ladies. This ain't Miss Thang's first time at the rodeo. She's been dealing with batshit, crazy, manipulative housewives for a long time now, and she's not buying what your selling. Miss Thang says frankly that, as a gay man, he found the Juice's comments offensive.
My hero for the day!!
The Jersey's housewives jaws collectively drop and Low-Magnon's expression becomes dazed as she tries to process what just occurred.
*&%^$#@#$@%#%
To give her credit, Low-Magnon does manage to apologize for her husband, saying that he did feel really bad after he saw the episode in question. You've got to wonder if by bad she means guilty, hypocritical or both.
Jacqueline has been quiet throughout this exchange, probably in hopes that if she doesn't say anything everybody will just forget about her. Sadly for her, Miss Thang is just pacing himself. Turning in her direction, he brings up the common perception that Mama Manzo walks all over Jacqueline. Both Jacqueline and Mama quickly deny this, as Miss Thang grins like a maniac. Oh boy, he's got a rumor to share and it's a doozie. Apparently there was an incident between Mama and Jacqueline when punches were thrown. Surprisingly, the "ladies" confirm the rumor. Even more surprisingly, it was Jacqueline, not Mama, throwing the punches. I'm telling you, this entire group of woman is f-ing nuts!! They ALL need to be sedated.
If Nina Van Ho is the craziest woman out of the bunch, I honestly believe Mama Manzo is a close second. I really think she's channelling the spirit of Marlin Brando. We get to watch a flashback of Mama moments, culminating with her stating with a full on Joisey accent, "Let me make something perfectly clear; before I like you, I don't like you." Awesome. We can always use a little more paranoia in the world.
There's a slew of questions regarding Mama Manzo's attitude toward her children involving issues like strip clubs, and the role of her son's future wives. I sincerely hope for everyone involved that when Mama's sons are ready to get married they figure out a way to transport some women from the 1950s. While Mama waxes poetic about the role of woman/mothers/wives, Nina makes a totally pathetic attempt to bond with the Mean Girls over the whole Italian mother thing. Totally. Awkward. Nina gets all enthusiastic over the role of a doting wife and the Mean Girls do their best to ignore her.
I'm telling you, I could make your son happy.
Miss Thang tactfully moves the conversation away from the topic of marriage to a topic only slightly less inflammatory. Are the Laurita/Manzos real life Sopranos? The women deny the charge as a group and the Diva explains that the only reason they get accused of having mob connections is because they live in New Jersey. Apparently everybody in Jersey gets called a mobster on a regular basis. In fact if the women lived in Ohio, nobody would ever suggest that they have mob connections. Because in Ohio it's really common for contractors to pay for everything with stacks of hundred dollar bills, for families to be best friends with people indicted for mob connections, and for relatives to be murdered under horribly grim/mysterious circumstances.

I found the dirt about the fat man found in the truck of a car. Yep. Everybody wants to think about the day of their engagement with such beautiful memories. Maybe "Mama" should have a chat with the cops because they seem to have a completely different opinion about "her family".
I saw the Diva's wedding tv show but the split marriage info is a little vague. Would someone please post a link or post a hint to a good link?
I have a friend who pays for everything in cash but he has retail stores. Juicy and Cro have cash handy because......?
