1:06Watch What Crappens

1:23Ronnie Karam: Well, hello and welcome to Watch What Crappens. this is part two of a two-part recap if you're like hey wait a minute i didn't hear part one guys it's because we put out a lot of recaps go back and listen to part one okay it's before this

1:38Ben Mandelker: one bye enjoy the show everything which actually that that makes me believe that there was no vast conspiracy theory behind why nicole left it really was about like postpartum and stuff going on in her life because i don't think if they fired her i don't think that they would include a moment where they're like what would it take for you to come back if they fired her you know well i think

2:07Ronnie Karam: there's a lot of shady accusations about anthony's money and his business and his shady lawyering and he's like an injury attorney and apparently fires a not injury what does he do he's like some kind of person who has like mass lawsuits against people at all times just to try and get settlements and there's like a lot of shady stuff out about him and I think she didn't want the girls I think that Marisol probably was following him around with a private eye or something because I do believe that about Marisol those rumors seem true to me and she was like I'm not going to do this I'm not going to get rid of my riches to stay on this stupid show with those crazy brujas like I'm out of here so I think she's just going to do the friend of thing and keep it simple on herself

2:49Ben Mandelker: yeah and by the way I think the friend of thing is like she looks like light and happy i mean she always looked great but she looked like she really did look wonderful in the scene she looked she looked just like oh i'm so unburdened right now i don't have to deal with the bullshit of these people i could just come in have a free lunch on bravo and

3:10Ronnie Karam: then go back to being wealthy yeah so let's go to the miami beach marina kiki we got all the long

3:17Ben Mandelker: slow motion walks up to the boat just strutting in kiki looks so good i was like i took a little video of it and i put it up on twitter i was like does anyone walk into a scene better than kiki she just is like model catwalk radiant smile god radiant is my real buzzword today i wonder how many more times i can say it but she is radiant and she's smiling and like in the sun and gorgeous i was like this lady just knows how to make an entrance i love kiki okay so yep she sure does

3:44Ronnie Karam: in very slow motion. I don't even think they use slow motion.

3:48Ben Mandelker: I expect a big yes and on that. A big yes and. Come on now. You're very breathless gay today over the ladies walking back. I'm a little breathless.

3:57Ronnie Karam: Oh my God, you guys. Kiki is effortless. Mother icon. Yes. She is a vision.

4:07Ben Mandelker: Oh my God. Kiki and Nicole might as well just be Team Radiant.

4:15Ronnie Karam: this is the kind of gay I am. My friend texted me this morning and was like, do you want to go see Gaga? And I was like, you got tickets? And he's like, no. And I was like, no, I'm not going to pay$500 to go see fucking Lady Gaga. Are you crazy? No, no. And he's like, what kind of gay are you? I said that kind.

4:36Ronnie Karam: The kind you will not pay$500 to see Lady Gaga. There you go. I'm sure she's great and everything, but I'm just not like an icon mother, kind of a gay. So, yeah, Kiki walks very slowly. Okay, so then she gets on the boat. Larza comes and she gets aboard her yacht. And Kiki's like, when you think of Miami yacht, you think of the luxury, the lifestyle, the rich men who can loan you boats for a day. And that's what we're doing today, baby.

5:04Ben Mandelker: I, unfortunately, because of this show, I also think of these ladies doing terrible music videos for Adriana too. but like that's fine that's fine overall i have very positive views of it's hot hot i think of a community theater director uh overseeing a shoot to be like i need you guys okay come on is everyone in places come on places all right shuffle tap shuffle tap are we eating

5:31Ronnie Karam: grape leaves are doing the grapevine can we pay attention here okay you the russian one you do

5:38Ben Mandelker: the Roger Rabbit. You, the one with the crazy face, you're going to do the Cabbage Patch. Okay, it's called Fusion! Action!

5:47Ronnie Karam: Are we moonwalking or are we moontalking, ladies? Let's pay attention! Pay attention!

5:55Ben Mandelker: That guy was great. So, we see these yachts. It's fun. We see the captain and the captain's like, well, this here is the master where the magic happens. Oh, yeah, this is Robbie I'd be humping myself. Ha! No, I'm just kidding. It was funny though, right? Yeah. Being on a yacht is super fun and such. And like, you don't have to like do anything. There's like a crew like, and jet skis like, and champagne at all times, and like lots of this and that, and XYZ like. It's so good. I love it.

6:25Ronnie Karam: So now, um, we meet Ebony, the new friend of, who's Lisa's friend. Lisa's like, Hey everybody, I got a new friend. Her name is Ebony. We've known each other for years and years. And she knows Kiki, She knows Gertie. She's always got my back. She comes to my Halloween party. Sometimes takes things home in a tupperware. I'm not going to lie. But no one else is eating the food. Am I right? Ebony, ladies and gentlemen.

6:48Ben Mandelker: They are just... This show, they just keep on adding more and more Friends Of's. I feel like Atlanta used to have the record for the most Friend Of's. But this show now has a full-on stable. I mean, what happened to Carmen Carrera? We just met her. And she's already, what, she doesn't even get to come on the double yacht trip? Come on now.

7:05Ronnie Karam: yeah she's she's moderately famous yeah so stephanie comes and alexi's like oh i don't know is it too soon to throw somebody overboard i mean under the boards i mean over the boards what what is it what is it what is it how could you correct me in front of frankie he was here

7:23Ben Mandelker: you know i know that like it's accepted to say overboard but peter likes to say underboard and he's an artist and i need to support his artistic vision so i will now say that we're gonna throw her underboard sassy.

7:34Ronnie Karam: So she's like, you know what? No hard feelings, but I'd rather not be on the boat with Stephanie. So Stephanie comes and Stephanie's like, I'm here. It's the loud one. Do you guys want to finish my house tour? Oh my God, I can't. So Marisol's like, we just found out you're not staying with us, Stephanie. And she's like, yeah, I'm going to go on a quick little trip to Canada with my hubby. He just loves Canada. You know, one of his big kinks is paying too much for books.

8:06Ben Mandelker: He loves poutine. Now, by the way, this is how you can tell that she is thirsty, thirsty, thirsty. Because, look, Montreal is beautiful. Love Montreal. Been up there several times. It's a gorgeous, wonderful city. But if you are turning down a yacht in Miami to fly up to Montreal for a night, really to fly almost anywhere, you're only doing that to brag that you can do that because no one in their same mind is leaving a yacht in this beautiful blue water am i right i would am i right 100 i would leave the yacht i

8:40Ronnie Karam: would leave some old man's borrowed yacht for a day to go to a luxurious comedian trip hell yes i

8:46Ben Mandelker: would i'm staying on that yacht i'm staying on a yacht in miami i'm sorry the answer just club

8:53Ronnie Karam: Super sex can wait spaces smell like you're getting gas breathes into your face. I don't know. I worked on the dinner cruise, which I know isn't like the same kind of yacht they're going on here. But I don't know. To me, it's just like being stuck with a bunch of people I don't like in a tiny space.

9:08Ben Mandelker: Well, I also, by the way, don't love that this event was planned. And then Masood decided that he was going to have a romantic dinner the same night as Stephanie's job. And I don't like that he did that. This is her job. she has to be on the double yacht and she has to deal with it

9:26Ronnie Karam: yeah yeah okay yeah if that works fuck Masood then too

9:30Ben Mandelker: thank you I knew I could get you yeah

9:33Ronnie Karam: I just needed to let the seat I needed to water it a little bit

9:38Ben Mandelker: and I was like let me apply some Bronwyn and Todd mentality onto this and be like wait a second Ronnie wouldn't like this if Todd did this to Bronwyn let me do this angle instead come on be angry with me

9:51Ronnie Karam: so Alexi is like oh it's gonna be such a fun weekend I totally need this you guys Peter has been through so much okay so um Stephanie's like where am I sitting and Marisa's like oh yeah I just go over there somewhere okay so we find we see a clip of Masood sending beautiful roses to invite her on this trip and um Alexi's like she can have some fun with Masood that's what she should do. That's what she should do. Not on the boat. Not on the boat. So Kiki's like, okay, well, we're going to tie both the yachts together and then Gertie's going to join us on Larsa's yacht. But unfortunately, we had to split the group because Larsa and I, we were fighting who gets whose yacht.

10:32Ronnie Karam: You know, Marisol says she doesn't want to be on the same yacht with you, Adriana. I'm sorry. She goes, me? Why me? Someone doesn't want to be on the yacht with me? Come on.

10:41Ben Mandelker: It's me. Come on. And you know, Adriana is upset about two things. One is that Marisol says she doesn't want to be with her. But also, the Kiki yacht is like the JV yacht because it's all friends of's and then Lisa. And Adriana, you know, in her mind is thinking, like, I deserve to be on the varsity yacht, but I'm here on the JV yacht. And meanwhile, Julia gets to be on the varsity yacht and I'm here. And oh, and now Marisol gets to be on there too. And she's going to say, use me as the excuse. You know, all these things are going through her head right now. Yeah.

11:12Ronnie Karam: So Marisol's like, well, I don't want to be on Kiki's boat with Adriana. I would like to have a look at the face, get the digs, get the comments. I don't need all that. I want to have a good time. Brought my mixers. Brought my mixers.

11:27Ben Mandelker: Well, I totally understand, Marisol, because if I would be put on Kiki's boat with Gerdy, there I would have said, I'm sorry, guys. How sick was that, right?

11:37Ronnie Karam: Oh, so sick. I was waiting for the blood to fall. I mean, what are we in Carrie? What are we going to throw around things in the high school gym? I mean, what is this? Where's Sissy Spacek? Get a little freckle face over here and just abuse me throughout my childhood. Am I right?

11:53Ben Mandelker: I'm not looking forward to joint dinner tonight with everybody. Okay. Oh, yeah. Well, so how long are we going to be here for? And Lars is like, we're ready to go. Come on, let's go. Okay. So, yeah, Stephanie says that basically a tender is going to come and fetch her when the time comes. And meanwhile, Adriana is now spiraling. She's like, you know what the problem with Marisol is? She has no empathy with her dried up, bony, shriveled up, dry ass.

12:24Ronnie Karam: So a guy, I love Adriana, I don't care. So a man rides by on a bicycle and she's like, hey daddy, there's a party here tonight. Party for three. So then they're all mortified and they drive off or they float off or whatever. So they make some cheers and Adriana just immediately starts getting shit faced. She starts pounding drinks. She's slurring like within five minutes. And she goes, oh, what is that over there? Is that the mean girl's butt? The problem with Mary Solstice, zero talent. Zero. Zero. Sorry, but it's the truth. You know what else? Dry knees. Dry. Dry knees. Those knees are so dry.

13:07Ben Mandelker: This is the talent. Talent. Talent yacht over here. Is the talent? Is the talent here? Marisol had no zero talent. Talent is over here.

13:19Ronnie Karam: Drymeese was my favorite. And so Stephanie's like, um, does this boat have a stabilizer? And Lars is like, of course. It's like a boat. Like, of course it has a stabilizer.

13:28Ben Mandelker: Of course it has a stabilizer. What's a stabilizer, by the way? Well, it's not very stabilized. Which is something that could be applied to this entire cast. I like that Stephanie's just already dissing the boat. Like, my boat would have the better stabilizer. Yeah. So then meanwhile, Lisa's like, oh, my God, there's a dolphin. Oh, my God. You know that sometimes they try to rape you. And then Ebony's like, dolphin rape is a serious thing, guys. Hi, I'm Ebony. I'm on the show now, I guess.

13:57Ronnie Karam: And Ebony at least got one line, and it was to promote awareness about dolphin rape.

14:02Ben Mandelker: So it was great. janet's like sexual assault they're dolphin sexual assault i'm sorry i'm sorry the dolphin decided to do the sexual assault the dolphin always trying to pretend to be so perfect i was cornered by a dolphin that wanted to have some tequila there i said it when i was a kid i

14:21Ronnie Karam: was out in the ocean and i kept swimming out and out with a friend and then i looked back to shore and my our parents were freaking out waving at us come back come back and there was a shark coming around it. They thought we were going to get killed by a shark, but it was just a wacky dolphin that whole time. You know, dolphins fuck with you like that. They do. They're smart. Like, I could kill your children. Just kidding. I'm a dolphin. Anyone have a beach ball to throw me? I'll toss it up with my nose. Nobody?

14:48Ben Mandelker: Dolphins are so rude because they, like, if I remember correctly, they, like, herd little fish closer and closer to the shoreline because then the fish get trapped. They're like, wait a second, we're running out of room. It's maniacal. I think they also flap. I think they flap with their tail the ocean and the force of that stuns the fish. The fish are like, oh, geez, what the fuck? So they really are smart. Those dolphins. Yeah, dolphins will fuck you up.

15:12Ronnie Karam: I love them. They also work for the CIA or something.

15:16Ben Mandelker: They just need to articulate better.

15:18Ronnie Karam: Seriously. They're so close to just taking over the world. If they just learn more consonants. Yeah.

15:27Ben Mandelker: Could you imagine being that smart and all you can say is,

15:33Ben Mandelker: what was that

15:35Ronnie Karam: why are you attacking leah black we love you leah um so uh adriana's like i'm drunk already i better eat but marisol the ring leader with her damn trinees trinees does not allow to make people all have their own opinion

15:54Ben Mandelker: uh maybe it was bad idea to tell adriana why marisol didn't want to come on my yacht She is manipulative. She is cunning. The fake Birkin bags and cubic zirconia rings would not absolve you from the evilness of your soul. It's like Adriana talking to a potted plant.

16:15Ronnie Karam: It's time for a commercial. It's time for a Crappens commercial. I love sandwiches. I eat a sandwich almost every single day of my life. And the best part of a sandwich is the bread. There can be a little carb guilt with bread eating, but not with Hero Bread.

16:35Ben Mandelker: Guess what? It has zero grams of sugar. And that's very important to me.

16:41Ronnie Karam: The texture of Hero Bread is perfection. It's fluffy. It's white. It's nice and chewy. Just how I like it.

16:49Ben Mandelker: You know, they also have tortillas. And in fact, just last night, I made myself a little casserole and I used my Hero Tortillas. And it was delicious.

16:56Ronnie Karam: You'd never know. at 0-5 grams net carbs and 11-32 grams fiber from the texture and taste. No more stiff cardboard baked goods that don't hit the spot.

17:06Ben Mandelker: Get the soft, fluffy experience you know and love, whether you're packing fresh wraps for everyday lunches or toasting up a 19-gram protein breakfast bagel.

17:15Ronnie Karam: No compromises, just flavor. 0-5 grams net carbs, 0 grams of sugar, and 11-32 grams of fiber.

17:23Ben Mandelker: All your favorite recipes are covered with Hero Bread sliced bread loaves, tortillas, bagels, and noodles.

17:29Ronnie Karam: Small batch drops of indulgent favorites like the popular 2-gram net carb Hero Croissant and 3-gram net carb Hero Pan-e-Chocolat.

17:37Ben Mandelker: Hero Bread is offering 10 % off your order. Go to hero.co and use code CRAPINS at checkout. That's code CRAPINS at H-E-R-O dot C-O.

17:53Ronnie Karam: Therapist or life coach? That is the question. And I found the answer. Last summer, I quit my job to focus on myself and recover from intense burnout. I'm talking major Sunday scaries, crying between meetings, the works. So being free from work was fantastic at first. But I needed to address the real issue. Why did I burn out? And what kind of work would not cause the same thing? I worked with a therapist to help me recover from burnout. But to really move forward, I needed some hands-on help. Enter strawberry.me. Strawberry matched me with a certified coach who helped me figure out what kind of environment I need to thrive in and created a step-by-step plan to get there.

18:33Ronnie Karam: So while my therapist helped me process the deep stuff, my coach helped me plan and progress towards my dream life. Now I know what I really want, what kind of work lights me up, and I have a plan to make it all happen. If you're ready for that kind of clarity, take the quiz at strawberry.me slash career and get matched with a certified coach today.

18:58Ronnie Karam: So then at the other yacht, Lars is like, so you guys like cool now? Like, like, and Stephanie's like, yeah, we've always been cool. And Alexi's like, oh, yeah, we've always been cool. But like, I don't like that you said that I bark because like I don't bark. And she goes, you do bark. And she goes, no, but like you said, like, so, so do you. And you're like a chihuahua. She goes, but you barked at me. But like, I'm a Rottweiler, but you're a chihuahua. But like, I'm like a Rottweiler though. And she goes, uh, really? Cause I think I'm more like a wolf. And she goes, oh yeah. Well then I'm more like a lion then.

19:28Ronnie Karam: If you're like a wolf, like I'm a Rottweiler.

19:32Ben Mandelker: I'm a Rottweiler. Yeah. So he's like, well, they don't bark. By the way, that's so Alexia for many reasons, but I liked it. One of Alexa's patented moves is that she's like, no, everything is fine. Everything is fine. But you did, you know, you did say something very insulting to me. She always says, everything is fine. And then she adds a comma, but by the way, you did this and I fucking hate you. But anyway, everything's fine. Everything's fine. I love, yeah,

19:54Ronnie Karam: but they don't bark. Yeah. Really? Because I'm like a penguin then. So what are you going to do with that?

20:01Ben Mandelker: Watch out. I'm going to throw, I'm going to throw her on their board. She better watch out. So, um, the, now the, the, the women, like the boats are next to each other the women, Kiki and the girls on her yacht go and like wave at the other ones Adrian's like, what's up bitches? Dry knees

20:18Ronnie Karam: Hi, Dios, me oh, thank God I'm not on that boat oh my god

20:26Ben Mandelker: Stephanie, you're on the wrong boat Stephanie's like, no I'm gonna get out of here Samarisol's like, loco we can't have fun, like cheers, cheers they're on that boat it's fine it's fine let's have fun like so adriana sees them talking and

20:42Ronnie Karam: she's like oh marisol induces the craziness that's why you're saying it's crazy because you induced it she's like oh you see she doesn't stop i mean that's why i'm not on that fucking boat i can't like jeez what is going on is she telepathic and just doesn't know it yet like she doesn't understand that like i can't i know it's i've i heard you i heard what you did to me i heard and they're two separate boats so she's just like yelling across to the other boat and she's like well yeah because you don't know how to be nice man just you don't know how to be nice you know you don't know how to stop manipulating everybody fuck off you old whore you're old whore dryly whore

21:23Ben Mandelker: I don't know what gets into Adriana Adriana is not fun drunk not like Marisol Adriana just turns nasty I was like is Marisol a fun drunk has Marisol ever just been fun in general I don't know if I saw that

21:37Ronnie Karam: that sounds sad did you hear my carriage come on

21:43Ben Mandelker: you're like Piper Laurie just coming home from the grocery store am I right everyone come on

21:51Ronnie Karam: somebody might needs to like give her like a biscuit or like something like to sober her like up like and uh lisa's like drinking is actually fucking poison it's poison that's why i stopped drinking except for the day except for the day you know they lured my best friend in there because

22:09Ben Mandelker: she is trying to be with the cool girls somersault's just complaining to stephanie like she's like whatever and adriana's like you know one day she's gonna realize they're not the cool girls they're like mean cougars I mean

22:23Ronnie Karam: Stephanie's like well okay I gotta go but just hope you guys have a great time there's no arguing okay my boat's here bye can we remodel this boat it reminds me of the wife okay can we make it float less

22:38Ben Mandelker: meanwhile Stephanie's trying to say goodbye and Adriana's like go get plastic surgery on your bony knees cause they need it you wrinkled knees

22:49Ronnie Karam: even adriana and alexia have to crack up because i was so good it's like who goes after someone's knees for like an hour and marisol's like oh yeah well this boney house got three husbands so doing something right and so she's like oh god that woman's an asshole i can't take her so then we see uh you know clips of adriana sassing off to marisol and she's like she's an asshole You know, that's my answer about Adriana every time. Take it to the bank, asshole. And I love that she's wearing her widow, her whole widow thing in the diary room right now. Because I love, like, she's an angry widow. She's an asshole.

23:26Ronnie Karam: The veil that's over her face.

23:28Ben Mandelker: But I think, isn't this also where she shows off her, like, bespoke goblet that says cockies on it and sparkles? I was like, oh, yeah.

23:36Ronnie Karam: You know, listen, no matter what's happening, Mary's soul is going to try very hard.

23:40Ben Mandelker: She's going to try hard. Well, you got to with all these narcs hanging around. So Stephanie is, she gets off the boat. And now it's time to go jet skiing. This is like a whole Below Deck episode. So they, Larsa like goes down to the jet skis. And she's now in her bathing suit. So her ass is just like, boom, like out. And everyone's staring at it like, holy shit. And then she slips. She's like, oh, like slip like. And the captain's like, this is why I like helping. Hey-o.

24:10Ronnie Karam: Oh, my God. Larsa's ass. I've touched it. I've squeezed it. I've drank out of it. I've gone back for seconds and thirds. It's just so fucking delicious and fluffy. I mean, it's perfection. So then Lars and Alexia go drive off on their jet ski. And Kiki is feeling some water guns wackily. So they go shoot the ladies with some water guns. And Adriana is like, permission to come on board. Do not tell anyone we are coming. Okay. Don't tell dry knees. Okay.

24:40Ben Mandelker: Although she probably could feel our presence because we're holding water. So, you know, those creaky dry knees feel it. Arthritis, am I right? So the producer is like, you know, silly stuff. The producer's like, what would your Bond name be? And she's like, a Bond girl name is usually like a foreign name, right? Like, well, Marisol would definitely be dry bony knee Gaga.

25:08Ronnie Karam: Kiki is going to be Sasha Succulent because the name sounds like she suck. She do suck. And I like dick.

25:16Ben Mandelker: I like dick unless it's bald man. Don't trust him.

25:20Ronnie Karam: I'm going to be Lisa Notstein knocking him dead with one glance. I don't think Kiki gets it. Yeah, none of them really do. They just stop this gag. They don't even ask anybody. Kiki's the closest. Nobody can do this.

25:33Ben Mandelker: No one knows. Kiki came close to succulent, but Lisa being like, Lisa Noxine, because I knock him dead, that's not the sort of pun they're looking for. Yeah.

25:42Ronnie Karam: So now they come on and shoot the ladies, and Marisol's like, oh, Adriana's torturing me. Stop it. It's not funny. It's like, oh, that girl's like the Wicked Witch of the West. Like, you start spraying her, and then she starts melting. Okay, you guys are running out of references here. Wrap it up.

26:05Ben Mandelker: NBC is so happy. NBCU is like, thank you so much for leaning into the corporate synergy. Wicked 2 will be out this fall in theaters. Also, I like that when they were shooting them with the water guns, Larsa was like, ah, ah, ah. And she had a cocktail and she just threw it in their face. Get back, get back. I'm like, Larsa, you know they're not real terrorists, right? This is water guns. And you're in a bathing suit and just got out of the water. She's like, water? No, like, stop. Stop.

26:36Ronnie Karam: So then Marisol sprays Adriana for revenge. But Adriana doesn't care. She just catches it in her mouth and stuff. And Marisol's like, oh, my God, this is only funny from some people. She goes, oh, yeah, because you have a vendetta against me. So whatever I do is never funny to you. I mean, thank you. He's like, oh, my God, guys, can we just get some drinks? So then they ask what happened to Stephanie. She went to Canada. And Lisa's like, what a dream. I would have chose Canada too. Oh, God. Better than this. Bullshit. So now they take a shade break. And Julia is like, oh, so out of curiosity, Adriana, why the other night did you not go back with me and just stay behind with Gertie?

27:23Ronnie Karam: Because you're an asshole. like why can nobody just answer this properly julia because you're a terrible friend and you're

27:29Ben Mandelker: an asshole and you deserve no loyalty because because you ditched adriana and she's feeling salty so she goes because someone needs to mediate the and julia's like but what girl did it was wrong she's like it was wrong i am not condoning it but who is gonna back who's gonna be back to bring some kind of sense i love adriana like positioning herself as voice of reason in any situation. Yeah. If not me, who's going to have any sense in this situation?

27:56Ronnie Karam: And she's like, but then why do you have to have her back? Gertie can have her own back. And she goes, oh, then why did you talk to Alexi and Marisol when they called me a liar in New York? And she goes, because you were friends for a year. Because you were friends for years. And she's like, but you sat there and you did nothing. And she goes, but you were friends for years. I need to listen to the point of view. Well, that's what I did, babe. That's all I did, babe. Busted. Which is a good point you can't use that argument against her when you did the exact same thing yeah exactly

28:25Ben Mandelker: so uh julia's like can't you plan this whole event how pivoted and deranged and it's like surrogates so adriana is like uh to me putting receipts on a wall is more benign than throwing a glass of water in somebody's face but god forbid julie gets called out about anything and i think that she's right about that i think the water was worse than the receipts i mean the receipts was definitely like a public shaming moment but the water was still water i just don't

28:53Ronnie Karam: see the receipts i mean the receipts didn't even say anything and i'm glad somebody finally says like it's not like she showed a dick it's not like she put a blowjob pic like what are you guys even mad about and then we find out that nobody even read it so well i guess we'll get yeah so gertie

29:07Ben Mandelker: but it was a trap it was a trap that was meant to publicly humiliate even if it didn't execute on that front. So like, I do think it was shitty of Gertie, but I think that Julia doing that to Gertie at the wedding was way more humiliating.

29:22Ronnie Karam: So Gertie shows up and Julia starts giving her evil looks, you know, that she gives. And she's like, Gertie is here. I'm so happy. She's so... And the producer's like, well, at least you're not a liar. So they have dinner and it's really tense. Everybody's sitting around together And it's like really tense. And Lisa's like, oh, come on. We're on a yacht. Like, lighten up. Okay, let's do something. Guys, we should do an exercise. We should go around and say positive things we like about each other. Okay? Now, Adriana and Marisol, you guys start. Okay, well, I like her fashion sense. And I like she's loyal to Alexia.

30:00Ronnie Karam: And I like that if I was lotion, I would have something to do on her knees. Because lotion needs to be needed.

30:07Ben Mandelker: Marisol's like, oh, well, let me think here. Um, well, she did a really good job bringing that bucket of blood. No, that was me. Um, no, let's see. Um, well, you know what? It's cool that she can play the piano. I wish I could play the piano. So that's, that's nice. So she can play piano a little bit. And yeah, I think that's about it. I think that's bad as far as I can get.

30:34Ronnie Karam: Well, it's okay you can't play piano, but you were still always tinkling. So.

30:38Ben Mandelker: See, she can't help herself. All right, well, that's nice.

30:42Ronnie Karam: Let's do Gertie and Julia. You guys go. So Gertie's like, okay, okay, I'm going to talk like this because I'm going to be the quietest I can be so nobody can call me loud, okay? So I would like to say, Julia, you have a compassionate heart and it shows in everything you do from embracing two new children in your life and giving them an amazing future. And that's all I have to say. Very wonderful. So good for you.

31:11Ben Mandelker: Well, okay. Well, you know how to throw fabulous parties. But I also appreciate how you honestly share your emotions. And I cannot hide my emotions, okay? Because I am, I guess you could say, not fake person who throws parties to shame beautiful Russian. Okay? Because I am like the worst actress in the world. And singer. Come see me in the opera. And singer.

31:32Ronnie Karam: And singer as well.

31:33Ben Mandelker: See, that's not nice. Not nice. And I thought after we see each other that we had conversation, we would move forward like goat in farm going to feeding station. But that we shared the same desire to do that and barely not.

31:46Ronnie Karam: But then you go to the party and then you ask Daniel that question in front of everybody to make me look bad. But I only asked Daniel the question because he was there to help. She goes, oh, but it was a perspective you had that I took a different way. And I just felt I had to react in such a manner that may or may not have been amicable to you. Okay. Was that calm enough? Okay. Was that calm enough? Okay.

32:09Ben Mandelker: Hello, hello, hello. Star has a question. Star has a question. Okay. I have a question for you. This one is from Peter, who says, I am an artist. And he says, like, why did you do that at your event? Nobody here thinks that what you did was okay. and if Frankie were there, you would have done Infinite Frankie, which is the worst thing of all. So nobody likes it.

32:29Ronnie Karam: Okay, well, I'm not here to take accountability and counsel from somebody with such dry hair. So tell Peter thank you, but no.

32:38Ben Mandelker: Wow, no, you know what? That was really mean. That was really mean. You know what? We're not okay anymore. We're not okay.

32:42Ronnie Karam: But also, how is this affecting you? That's my question. I'm not saying sorry for it. So I don't know how it affected you. And she's like, what the hell with these people? She's like, it reminds me of being a kid when they would make fun of my name and I was isolated to an area where the kids who couldn't speak English went. And, you know, being othered basically by these ladies brings me back to that, you know. So Gertie is saying like, I'm not interested in kissing ass. I'm a lonely lioness, not a following sheep. Oh, hello, hello.

33:15Ben Mandelker: I'm the lion here, okay? Okay, woof, woof, lion here. Woof, woof, lion in the room. You're not the lion.

33:21Ronnie Karam: Well, it was a reaction to what I felt was a betrayal and alexia's like well that's the only thing she goes well who do i have an apology to because i did it and that's what it is so you walked out like it was a dick pic it was like oh my god like a dick pic oh no and she goes well i would rather a dick pic because i could see a dick that would be good that would be a good picture i'd be like hey you know what that was a good

33:44Ben Mandelker: party i have to see a dick good he's like this is not healthy i haven't had a chance for all of these months leading up to me being back in the group to express myself. Oh, Gernie, you included all of us, and when you did it in front of all of us, I mean, come on. You know I love cockies, so at least give me a dick pic. Did we move past the dick pic segment already? Yeah, well, she also assaulted me, and

34:06Ronnie Karam: she screeched at me at the top of her lungs at your wedding, and you didn't even care. And Adriana is just, like, trying to figure out how to get wine open. She's like, somebody could open this wine, maybe, because I don't know. It's not open.

34:19Ben Mandelker: do you think if i just rub it up against marisol's dry bony knees the top will just come off

34:25Ronnie Karam: um and julie is mad that she's not defending her and gertie's like i mean i understand your friendship with her and it's remarkable that you you know you run deep with her it's fine you know what you won't listen to me and my side of the story so forget it no gertie it's not like that we're very fair she goes oh really did you read the text message did you read it and marisol's like no of course not she goes okay well there you go so then they ask Kiki and she's like no I still have no idea what that was about like why would I read that and Lars is like that was like 500 messages it's like too long no it's like so long like

35:01Ben Mandelker: the producers have like have printed it out and like laminated it for them to look at and they're like this is a lot like this is too much like it's a lot babes a lot of babes in here a lot of babes yeah a lot of babes in here babe babe babe babe babe not enough Lanny I don't know why this doesn't say anything

35:20Ronnie Karam: this is the problem with them none of them even fucking read it and that's I knew it because when we when we did that recap last week or two weeks ago whenever it was and I was reading we got a transcript of them and I was like there's literally nothing bad in here there's nothing to be mad about in this whole thing and they just all assumed it was some terrible thing so none of them read it so now they're all trying to read it and Lars is like yeah well first we see Kiki go I don't see anything that says bitch or anything like that, so I don't know why it's so bad. Lars is like, yeah. But I didn't feel like these text messages should be released to strangers because I know both parties.

36:03Okay.

36:05Ronnie Karam: And I don't care.

36:09Ben Mandelker: I know them both and I don't care, so don't show them to strangers. Marisol's like, well, that was like sabotage, like a booby trap. It was like you were standing under a bucket of blood and someone pulled the rope. You know what I'm saying, Carrie? Anyone see a scary movie? Scary, you can't spell scary without a Carrie, am I right? And that's really nasty. That's calculated. Yeah, we're all trying to be friends and support each other and like love each other. Oh, and how is that deterring from anything? Oh, because like the way you did it, like doesn't feel like you care about any of us, okay?

36:38Ben Mandelker: Because you could do the same thing to me, Gertie. You could like actually send my text messages out to the public.

36:42Ronnie Karam: Oh, yeah. Well, she could throw water at you, too. And Mary's still saying, well, that was never cool. We never said that was cool. We just didn't storm out. And, you know, we kind of loved it secretly because we'd been bitching about you the whole season already.

36:53Ben Mandelker: So, look, we never said it was cool. We just sat there quietly and never reprimanded Julia for it. Never sat her down and told her that you have to make things right. But, like, we never said it was cool.

37:02Ronnie Karam: So, Gertie's like, Julia, the question is, do you want to have a private conversation? Because if you need time to move forward, then move forward. We can deliberate more later. She goes, absolutely. It should be conversation private because the feelings are too raw. We should give it time and then be conversational like adults trying to move forward. I will wait until we are in a group setting again and then diss you in front of everybody like adults do. She's a ghost. Absolutely fine.

37:29Ben Mandelker: Yes, that sounds wonderful. Yes, thank you. So now it's the next morning. Everyone is waking up in their very small rooms and people are, Adriana's like hungover. Adriana is pretending like she doesn't remember anything that happened yesterday. And then Larsa and Marisol and Alexi are sitting together outside and Larsa's like, hey guys, should I call Stephanie Lake? Yeah, call her up. Let's see what that hooker is doing up in Montreal. So they call Stephanie and she's like, I bet the weather is delicious in Canada. Nice, cool weather. Oh God, I don't really have a lot of Canada material. You girls are going to have to help me out a little bit.

38:08Ben Mandelker: Khakis.

38:10Ronnie Karam: we're like having fun like those so like it's like fun like she goes well hold on where's the rottweiler did she bark and marissa goes oh that's you alexia she goes you know what fuck you stephanie fuck you for calling me a rottweiler when i'm like a penguin lion so like fuck off she's like wait you told me yesterday i was a chihuahua and you were a rottweiler i'm making a joke about that she goes oh no that's not nice i have a name my name is alexia okay it's not

38:32Ben Mandelker: rottweiler yeah she's like it's way too early in the morning for alexia to be this upset i'm like this is i feel like alexia's morning upset like she'd be angrier in the afternoon this is just her this is her light this is her half asleep upset so she's alexia's like okay it was a joke okay because i'm gonna answer the phone with kiki oh wow it was a joke she's like well i was she's like i was joking too she's like well and we had a late night clearly can you see she's really upset

38:57Ronnie Karam: so stephanie's like she called herself a rottweiler i was just going with it she's all oh, super funny, Stephanie. Super funny. Okay, that was really funny. And Lars is like, we need like coffee like. So, Alex, they hang up on her and Alex is like, okay, what the fuck was that then? And Lars is like, I don't even know like what she was talking about. I was like, who's a Rottweiler? What? Like, I don't know. How much money does he have? Was it in the text? Because I'm not reading it.

39:23Ben Mandelker: I don't know what a Rottweiler is. So, Alex is like, don't fuck with me. Okay, because we said they're playful and she knows it and now she's going to call me a Rottweiler. No, fuck you. You can't call me a Rottweiler. Aren't you happy? Aren't you happy? Aren't you in fucking Montreal in your jet with your perfect husband close to Celine Dion and your perfect life? Why the fuck do you need to have to be so mean?

39:42Ronnie Karam: I think this is where we really see what Alexia's problem is with Stephanie. Aren't you happy in your fucking Montreal with your jet and your perfect husband and your perfect life?

39:50Ben Mandelker: Yeah, that's, I think. That sums it up right there. That 100 % does. I do think, though, that when Stephanie said, where's the Rottweiler? I don't think she thought Alexia was right there. I think she was like, that bitch, where's that bitch? She's like making a jokey allusion to that. And I think Alexia clocked it and was like, oh, you're not saying it in a fun, playful way anymore. She's like, fuck you. So like, as much as it's like, what? We had a joke, we had a joke, we had a joke. I think she would say it if it was in front of Alexia's face.

40:18Ronnie Karam: She'd be like, how's it going, Rottweiler? Because that's how Stephanie is.

40:21Ben Mandelker: Right, she would say it like that. But I think that, I think there was a subtlety. I think Stephanie got caught and then she pivoted. She's like, what is her joke? I was like, I think Stephanie got caught a little bit. And you know what? I enjoyed it.

40:32Ronnie Karam: Yeah, I mean, I think Stephanie's okay because she made a reference to what the last thing she had on the bow, which was a Rottweiler fight. So she was like, so how's the Rottweiler? Oh, my God. How dare you? How dare you? How dare you? I don't know. I just see Alexia being ridiculous. But you know what? She makes me laugh, so I don't really care.

40:52Ben Mandelker: You know what? I love her. Yeah, it's so fun.

There are so many complicated things on Bravo. Like opening the front door on Summer House. Or figuring out how to wear a Linfinity dress.

44:16Ben Mandelker: Or understanding Tom Schwartz's purpose on the Valley. In a world full of confusing choices, thank goodness for Nature Raised Farms. they believe that food shouldn't be complicated.

44:25Ronnie Karam: Especially chicken, but the freezer aisle often makes it that way. Too many options, too many additives, too many compromises.

44:33Ben Mandelker: Do I like complicated chicken? No. No.

44:36Ronnie Karam: Chicken should be fun. Complicated chicken, not fun.

44:40Ben Mandelker: Chicken should meet a higher standard, and Nature Raised Farms is free from gluten, dairy, and soy. There are no seed oils and no artificial ingredients. Also, Nature Raised Farms chicken is a good source of fiber and only between 8 to 12 grams of fat per serving dependent on the product. Chicken, that's just chicken. When food is that simple, there's a quiet joy in it. And we love quiet joy, like the moment Erika Jayne puts down her microphone.

45:05Ronnie Karam: Keep your life simple with your new favorite chicken. Nature Raised Farms Chicken, because chicken shouldn't be complicated.
