Watch what crappens. Who cares what happens when there's so much that crappens? Hello and welcome to Watch What Crappens, a podcast about all that crap on Bravo that we just love to talk about. This is part two of the recap. If you missed part one, go check out your podcast feed. It's right there. And without further ado, let's get right back into the recap. Gee, Kyle, do you really think that I'm bannock, saying that I'm erratic when I'm going through the divorce that I'm going through when you yourself are claiming that I should be worried because you're so afraid of what PK is going to do to me?

2:34Ben Mandelker: Do you really think that? Well, I said to you in Italy, it was the wrong choice of words. No, you said to me in Italy after you had said to every single woman who was sitting here. No, no. Bo's was on the phone with me. And by the way, Bo's said things that she was concerned about. I wasn't aired. Like, it wasn't aired. Like, it wasn't aired. But she said something, too. Oh, here we go, Kyle. It's all the editors saving Bo's again. Here we go with Kyle. She's like, well, to be clear, I told Dorit, who disagreed with me, that I believe that your concern was valid. Well, I saw that. That was on TV.

3:07I saw it. I saw that episode. That was pretty good. I looked really good in that episode, just like to say. I looked hot.

3:14Ben Mandelker: that's right and she said this multiple times yes again and again and again again uh yeah but like was it shown yes i saw it i saw it with my own two eyes when it happened in real life but was it on tv to read and then we see all these different shots of bows saying i actually believe kyle i believe kyle on this one yes i do believe kyle i believe kyle i believe kyle okay well i was concerned yeah yeah yeah she believes that kyle's concerned But Andy's like, well, here's my thing. Her feeling is that you were initiating conversations, Kyle. And I think this is a very big thing. The point that she's making, thank you.

3:49Ben Mandelker: Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Okay, don't push it to read. Don't push it. You're fucking annoying me today.

3:59So do you feel that you were bringing up the topic to others? Well, I mean, I brought it to the table when I was speaking with, you know, like we were at the airport. You know, it's Rachel and I remember Rachel. remember they probably edited it out or something but like we were stressed like rachel was so stressed because she was like rachel was like oh my god get that woman in a mental asylum remember rachel they probably cut it you say something rachel yeah or like in the happens like she said something like when you're in a financial crisis or whatever like we were both talking it was mutual talking okay that's what i was trying to explain to you but kyle kyle you were the one who

4:31Ben Mandelker: brought it up to every single poison coil that's not true to read it's not true every single poison it's all aired it's all ears pose can you step in please this is not fair it's not fair okay all right let me okay all right i'm here everyone's the cmo is here i've already said this when we talked in the hamptons we started talking about how she was behaving and i said gosh well i'm concerned too because she has a looming financial crisis much like keely when he goes to a yogurt land because he's no longer working and then i got really scared and then i took to dorit and so now we see a flashback to bo's telling to read that kyle can't you know all this stuff you know that that there's no trust between them and that yada yada she's like i always defended you kyle your care and your concern and when we got to her book party i felt foolish i'd just like to point out that bo's is pointing out even though she's somewhat supporting kyle she's like yeah kyle kyle called and she said all this stuff about dorit which got me worried about dorit because Dorit has a looming financial crisis.

5:34So again, Kyle is like relying on someone as a crutch, like prove it, prove, prove what I said is true, Bose. And Bose is like, yes, it is true that you called me and got worried about Dorit. And then I got worried about Dorit because she was in a looming financial crisis. And you're calling me, telling me, oh, she's, she's buying the whole store and she's, you know, she's acting erratic and she's disappearing and whatever else she was saying. So it's not really proving Kyle's point. and um kyle's like well like we've not been speaking since italy and then like even on the best of terms so like it would have been even on the best of terms it would have been hard to like pull off getting dressed and going and filming didn't you go to kathy's thing like the day before

6:13Ben Mandelker: no but you don't understand my daughter was getting married in two days which meant that i had to like you know not go to dorit's book cover thing because there was a wedding in two days afterwards so don't you understand like it's like too close to go to a thing when there's another thing two days later on the schedule does that make sense to everyone just like a lot it's a lot for me yeah so i sent to read a text because she's important to me you know and then you go off in your interviews speaking so negatively like trying to paint this portrait of me being this like horrible friend where and like i didn't show up thanks a lot bows and then bows we see in a clip being skeptical about that because you're a horrible friend that you didn't because you didn't show up that's a horrible friend and you didn't show up yeah what are you confused about it looks like a pretty good portrait to me yeah it's like well i'm not psychic you know i haven't talked to you i didn't know that you weren't going i talked to sutton so i knew sutton wasn't going and carl's like well i'm trying to have this friendship with you i'm like i love you like i think you're amazing and i'm like you know when i see you i want to go like hi how are you but you know like um like i just it's just i've seen that like the way you are with dorita it's like i'm never going to be able to have a friendship with you because of this it's just like so unfair because i know you're looking for a new house and then you won't even let me be friends with you as you like look for a new house for a sign any sort of ulterior motives you know It's just really hard for me.

7:42Ben Mandelker: So, Bo's is like, well, there is room. And that's why I asked you to work out with me. Remember, I said, will you work out with me? And I didn't want to knock you over the head with a dumbbell. I wanted to work out with you, Kyle. We can become friends. So, and now the question is, does Kyle control the show? Sudden Erica, Dari believes that the two of you turned on her because Kyle got to you. And he's like, no, no, no, no, no, no. The only reason why I turned on her is because Kyle said, you better turn on her. Otherwise, you don't get another season on this show. Okay? And I thought, okay, I got a lot of dates with Shrek coming up, so I better earn some cash.

8:19Well, first, I want to say I'm sorry you feel like I turned on you. That I really am because, I mean, I've never liked you anyway. So this year, all that pretending to be your friend, it was just so I could not be your friend at the end. Do you understand? So I was kind of consistent. I just want to make sure that that's on the records. I've always hated this bitch. Okay? Thank you. Case rest. I just want the case of Brown versus Strack versus whatever this girl's name is. It's poor person.

8:47Ben Mandelker: Yeah. I just, I just want to say, um, if you thought I turned on you, I apologize because that was not my intent. My intent was to react on you turning on me. That's it. Okay. Now, what were you going to ask? Um, so Dorit's like, well, thank you. I just, I think it felt like every time I wanted to have a conversation with Kyle, she was like everyone, everyone, everyone. and she was like collecting, collecting, collecting minions. Minions here, minions there. Little overalls, little circle things on their foreheads, little evil plans. Minions, you know. Little orange things with big, thick Coke bottle glasses.

9:24Minions, Indy. Minions. And it sounds like, well, excuse me, first of all, I am a minion to no one, minion to none, okay? Minion to none. That's not true. You are the biggest Kyle ass kisser on this whole cast. And that's saying something.

9:43Ben Mandelker: Yeah. Yeah, there's no one jumping on the couch, right? We all see. She's just a washed up actress from the 80s. Like, no one really cares about Kyle. I mean, remember when she had those bangs? She lost all her credibility then. She got mad when someone called her a ragamuffin for crying out loud. We're not her. I mean, hey, excuse me. That's not fair. That's not fair. Like, everyone gets mad at other things, and we all have our sensitivities. That's not fair to single me out like that. Wasn't Kyle the one who called someone a ragamuffin Didn't she call Denise a ragamuffin She's like he'd show up everywhere Looking like a ragamuffin She's like ragamuffin Call someone a ragamuffin Maybe it was that way But she only said it because she knew it would hurt Yeah That was hurtful So Sutton's like yeah No one can make And he wants my Last name to be a color In which case I'll listen I mean, that's Pope.

10:36So then we see in Flash, and Dorit's like, oh, you wouldn't bow down to the altar of Kyle Richards? And we see a flashback of Sutton saying, well, I'm not going to bow down to the altar of Kyle Richards. So, you see, I think the point is, even Sutton said that there's an altar of Kyle Richards. So then Dorit's like, well, there you go. You've cleared it up then, Sutton. You've cleared it up. By the way, Sutton, I just wanted to say I'm so sorry for the way anything's come off this season Well, thank you, Doreen You bought that? You idiot

11:15Ben Mandelker: Doreen, what is it about Kyle that you think makes everyone a pleaser? Well, I think that they think That we think, that you think That she thinks, that she has the power to get anyone off the show And well, I know you said that Because I don't feel that way about I don't feel that way about it But I know Erica thinks that And Sun's like, I don't I don't think that Kyle could Ever get us fired Kyle, did you get that gift that I had New Avi send to you? Okay, just want to Make sure we're still on good terms But no, I don't think that you could get me fired No, not anyway, no Wait a minute, did I tell you that?

11:53Did I tell you that? She's giving her that look yes you did well i mean do you know how many people i would have like gotten rid of like a

12:01Ben Mandelker: long time ago then come on yeah like and they laugh like oh my god like yeah totally like i totally would have gotten rid of so many people and he's like okay let's do this well i mean and that would be that would mean i definitely would have been off then huh right and kathy goes oh kyle owns bravo and kathy's like cracking up at the idea of kyle having any sort of sway in this world. So she's like,

12:27Andy, you better watch your step. You might be next. And they're all joking about it. But I think everybody kind of thinks that doesn't everyone. I mean, every, yeah, everybody thinks that Kyle's a producer on this show and she has major sway on this show. I mean, come on.

12:41Ben Mandelker: Well, she definitely has sway. And also like when people become big stars in these shows, if they say, I don't want to film with that person anymore, those people magically disappear. And like that has happened on all these shows. Claudia Jordan had a really strong season and all of a sudden, but she came for Nene Leakes and she was gone. Noella Bergener had like, for better or worse, a really big season, but she came for Heather Dubrow and all of a sudden Noella's gone. Like, but people come for like the big dog and the big dogs don't like it. You know, not to compare Heather Dubrow to Nene Leakes.

13:17Ben Mandelker: I apologize to the internet. But like, seriously, when you have someone who's a veteran, and someone challenges them and they don't like it, they go away. It's like that scene in Soap Dish where it's like, it's either her or me. And that shit works. And Kyle's like, well, whoever said that, it's not true. She goes, well, I knew that. Trust me, because if you had that power, I would not be here. I'm just saying that Erica thought it. And Amanda's like, well, it's like a misconception out in the world though because people say is kyle a producer did kyle bring you on you know what's funny is they used to say that about vanderbump wait you used to say that about vanderbump wasn't that so funny that you became the vanderbump isn't that funny kyle she's like yeah i love that it's time for a commercial it's time for a crappin's commercial lately i've been more intentional about what i wear day to day and I'm leaning into pieces that feel easy and comfortable but still put together.

14:23It just makes getting dressed simpler. Quince has been my go-to. The fabrics feel elevated, the fits are clean, and everything just works without needing to overthink it.

14:32Ben Mandelker: Quince has all the wardrobe staples for spring. Think 100 % European linen shorts and shirts from $34. Lightweight, breathable, and comfortable, but still look put together and clean in 100 % pima cotton tees with a softness that has to be felt ronnie their pants also hit that same balance relaxed and comfortable but still polished enough to wear pretty much anywhere everything is priced 50 to 80 percent less than what you'd find at similar brands and quince works directly with ethical factories and cuts out the middlemen so you're getting premium materials without the markup let me tell you something that mongolian cashmere sweater that i got from quince that is like a real icebreaker at parties because when people ask me about that sweater and i'm like oh I got it at Quince.

15:14Ben Mandelker: They're like, oh my God, I have one from Quince too. And then we bond. You would actually would never think a Mongolian cashmere sweater could be such a bonding thing, but it is a lovely, luxurious item. Refresh your everyday with luxury you'll actually use.

16:19Didn't Camille say that she's not on the show because Kyle blackballed her something about the show? Did my belly button say that? I mean, I'm not really sure where I am right now. I haven't said much.

16:34Ben Mandelker: Yeah, well, Camille thought that too. So like, whatever. That's why she's not here anymore. she just was so annoying. I mean, like, because she's busy, right? All right. Well, I know one of the big gripes this year was with Dorit's lateness, but with all due respect, I said the whole phrase, all due respect this time, aren't you all kind of late all the time? It's like, this is what I mean, Andy. This is exactly what I mean. It's like, yeah, so was it worse this year? Okay. Dorit is a very important part of the cast and making it work. And when you disappear for two hours, we need to end the conversation.

17:08Why is that? Because you have nothing else going on. And Andy's like, right. Well, what are you talking about disappearing for two hours? Well, the pizza party, for one. By the way, now everybody gets a fucking pizza party all the time. Love that. And she's like, but everyone followed within five minutes because you left. And you had nothing else going on. Well, I was at the pizza party the entire night, Erica. I got to. Well, you came late and you left early. That's what we'll say.

17:40Ben Mandelker: No, I was there the entire time. As we all know, that pizza party went from 10.51 to 11.03. I was there the entire time. How much time do you need to give a bunch of women to not eat a slice of pizza? Am I right, Hundy? Okay, can I say this? You don't seem especially sorry. No. Well, I'm tired of being a toot. A toot? Nobody's attacking you, Dorit. What do you think this is? Gentle coodling?

18:13Ben Mandelker: I'm tired of having to defend myself constantly. Well, no one said you have to do that. No one said anything to you in Italy. And you know why we don't? Because you say, come at me and we can talk about it. And the reason nobody wants to is because you're all this. You're all this. All this that we see right here. Kyle, Kyle, I don't talk behind my back. That's what I said. Don't talk behind my back. It's like, well, no. But then when we say it to your face, you get defensive and like we're saying it to you now and you are and like I feel like you only get defensive with me And it's just like really not fair like why me?

18:42Ben Mandelker: Everyone else can talk to behind your back, but I can't talk behind your back. Why not me? Why me? Why me? Well, I'm very sorry, but do you mean it? No, Erika, I'm a cold-hearted fucking cold fitness, okay? Like, alright, alright. You really like that word, hmm? Yes, and I mean it, and I have a lot of empathy for people when they are late. Sutton was four hours late in Sedona. Did Sutton get roomed? It went four hours. I was, you know, I was not drinking that day. So I was being slow because I was thinking about drinking for two hours. And then the last hour I was reaching for a drink. And then the last 10 minutes I put the drink down, but I didn't drink from it.

19:29Ben Mandelker: I spent a lot of time in that four hours doing things. So now Erica starts getting upset. So Andy's like, can I ask you a question? Something that really struck me was how hard Erica was crying at the table after you left in Italy. I've never seen in 10 years of her being on the show. I've never seen her cry like that ever, ever, ever. It's not like there's some other famous clip of her crying. So let's take a look at that clip. And there it is. And Erica's crying. And we see Erica crying. She's like, don't, don't, don't come to me. I'm crying. So silly. Oh, and I would say, I would say, Indy, had this situation not happened with the cover police, you know, it would have been better.

20:12But, you know, she didn't even bother to text me, to cool me, to let me know. Well, is there anything she's said to you today? She's now told you the reason she flipped. She's told you that saying to her that she was trying to save her job by speaking up to hurt her feelings. She's mentioned that I'm a dad. Have I mentioned that? I'm very, very tired. And listen, assuming you feel that denigrates your intention towards the conversation, Erica, I'm guessing, and she's like, well, not only the intention, but the relationship, all of it. I'm just double it. But I guess it was out of character. You and I don't have that friendship.

20:47It didn't feel like anything I merited. Anything I did merited that behavior. And that's why I asked you, please, tell me what I see. Please, tell me what I need. Please, tell me where I am. Please, tell me what time is it. Please, tell me Why do we have pizza parties? Why?

21:05Ben Mandelker: The rain is because I could not Fucking say it out loud All you kept on saying was Coil, I feel this and I feel this Coil, I feel this Coil and I feel this Me thinking that you had some big reaction Because you had to Because someone was telling you Because you have to go after Toreen Coil was telling you to go after me It's like, no, no, no, no But it sounds like it It sounds like that's the raining theme no one ever asked me to go after you when I see in your behavior happens to agree with what she says but it's different from us and I couldn't say what I wanted to say why does Erica keep saying that she couldn't say what she wanted to say I don't know I don't know it's weird is it that she didn't feel safe like she was afraid if she said it to Dorit that Dorit would lose her mind no one turned on my power button until three episodes before this season ended so sorry I wasn't paying attention okay but you never said a word That's right.

22:00Honey, I'm saying to you right here, right now, because you're telling me for the fourth time. And I said both times, both things. Well, I never wanted to say it this forum. Well, she said you're working so hard to be open.

22:14Ben Mandelker: Yeah. When you're working so hard to be open and honest and admit that you don't want to say things in this forum for open and honesty, it's really hard to stay open and honest and try to keep things off this forum. Yeah, that's the most frustrating thing about this show So Erica's like, well, did I just say to you, Andy I don't want to say this on camera, but I will Yes Well, I said it to him Well, okay, well, I don't want to say what Well, she didn't want to say to you that she was upset with you Because you accused her lashing out at her to save her job Oh, God You wouldn't even say, you didn't want to say that on camera?

22:49It's nothing Yeah, in order to save my fucking job, I fucking told him Yeah, I did it. I said it.

22:56Ben Mandelker: Yeah, well, she didn't want to say it, and I said, you have to say that to her. That's the reason. You have to figure out why that hurt you so much. Yeah, but for that to be enough to not show up, to not message me, that really hurts. Well, but that is the key component to me, just being like, fuck this entire situation. I've, ah, ah, ah, ah. I'm lost. And then her face just goes completely blank. It's so funny. She's just looking straight ahead, and she's like,

23:26Ben Mandelker: here's what I've got to say and get ready for it okay tears the time is now I'm unleashing the gates come on through it's like a full it's like a full minute of oh I felt really sad

23:46Ben Mandelker: it was like a sneeze that never arrived

23:52oh my god she's smelling toast she's smelling toast well she didn't want to say it and i said you have to say it so she said it erica you just felt something what was that like well i'm sorry erica i'm sorry that you had to feel something thank you thank you very difficult i don't know if I can recover. Hold on.

24:14Ben Mandelker: Hold on. Still got some tingles in the nose. I think I need a moment to figure out what the hell they're even talking about. So what I'm gathering from this kind of disjointed argument is that the reason why Erica did not go to the book launch... Well, I guess Dorit... If Erica had come to the book cover launch, Dorit's sort of saying this could have been salvageable, but because she didn't even come to that, it's bad. And then Eric is saying, I couldn't go to that because I was so mad because you said that I was trying to save my job. But I didn't want to say that on camera. So I just didn't even go to the book cover launch.

24:53Ben Mandelker: Is that what I, is that what? Yeah, I was just saying, I didn't go to your book cover launch because I was pissed at you. And I was pissed at you because you said I was just yelling at you to save my job. Right. So I guess maybe it's also her way of saying, like, if I don't go to this book cover thing, there's a chance that I may lose my job. because I'm not participating in this party and I'm showing to you that I'm actually okay to risk my job, that my yelling at you was actually from an authentic place, not a fear for my job place. Maybe that's sort of the implication. Oh, I didn't get that.

25:24Maybe. I'm just suggesting it. I think she was just saying, why would I go to your party? I hated your ass because you said that I was going to, you know, I was only yelling at you so I wouldn't lose my job. That's how I took it. But I don't know.

25:36Ben Mandelker: At this point, there's a... I think Erica's just grasping. She's like, listen, I was over. I didn't like you. We were in a fight. Why would I go to your stupid party? Fuck. Yeah. At this point, there's like a buzzer under Kathy's butt. It's like, oh, sorry. It's my time to say this. I don't want to be a troublemaker, but I will be because I'm wealthier than all of you. I am curious. I'm sitting here and looking at two people that the three of you have three of you have loved each other. And I'm feeling a little bad for my baby sister sitting at the end because it seems to me that the way I'm feeling.

26:08feeling is that Dorit you only seem

26:10Ben Mandelker: to be caring about what Erica thinks in this situation well I love I love that you're coming in for her and you see that Kyle and I had a long full day of back and forth so I do really fucking hate your little sister and I hate her as much as Erica so if you're concerned that Kyle is not receiving any sort of emotional attention right now don't worry I can always go back to her thank you but I just feel like you haven't been like up front with her and told her what it is you know yes she has have you not been here she's told you she's told her exactly what it is for three and a half hours um and she's like couldn't it couldn't be just because she talked with pk a few times on the phone oh now she's talking to pk on the phone kathy are you trying to help because last year it was she was only sending him memes so now she's on the phone with pk kathy you're making this worse but um we know why kathy's doing this because kyle every season is I was like, what am I?

27:06I can't even, my sister won't even stand up for me. What kind of sister are you? You won't even stand up for me because of Dorit.

27:12Ben Mandelker: It's just not fair. I do all this work to defend you, Kathy, and then you don't say anything about me. So Dorit is like, no, it's because, it's not because she was talking to PK. It's because she was talking behind my back to everyone, telling them I'm erratic. And I said to her, I'm going through an acrimonious divorce. Do you know what you're doing, potentially to me, by putting it all out there? because like to read i had never had any bad intention any of this because the problem with you is that you all you only want to have yes people around you that's all that you want to have around you oh excuse me kyle carol can you bring me that uh that frittata i asked you to bake five minutes ago thank you so much oh good i got something teddy comes in just to fix kyle's makeup and leaves again yeah exactly so kyle's like yeah and anytime somebody says something you don't like they're the enemy kyle you haven't spoken to her you haven't been friends with dorit for two years because of like some innocuous shit she said to you what are you talking you are the worst at this but also she's not really wrong with dorit either you know dorit is like that and dorit's like well i do have yes people around me kyle right but i do who's saying yes to me new one okay but nice troy nice troy well you sit in your interviews erica you know what kyle you're trying too hard for a relationship that no longer exists okay you're not friends okay just let tom flatline in a hospital in a fucking jail cell alone okay no erica erica no i'm fighting to defend a character okay like i just okay i'm defending like this character that you have made of me that doesn't exist and i'm like i'm sick of defending it because it's like i'm an actress and i'll make my own characters thank you very much and because oh i've made it up kyle yes you Yes, you have to read.

28:56Ben Mandelker: You made up my character. I'm actually a figment right now. I'm actually not even a real thing. I'm AI generated. I'm a prompt. And I'll say you ripped down the cameras and stole the van. What about that? And we don't question that because everybody knows that there was another van sitting right next to that one. Because they even show it in the clip where they show the van driving off. So then Andy's like, okay, let's move on to something else. Dorit, you may not agree with judgments that were thrown at you, but was there anything that made you think, wow, I should work on that? She's like, um, well, hmm.

29:46Ben Mandelker: Listen, I think the late thing, it gives me a lot of stress. a lot of anxiety. I don't want to be late. I can tell you this right now. The person who is most frustrated with me being late is me. And you know, like I hate, it's like, no, you're, you're, you can't act like you're most stressed out by you being late. The people who are stressed out by you being late are the people who are waiting for you. Okay. In fact, today, if you'll notice, I said, I'm not going to be the last person on the stage.

All right, final thoughts Real Housewives, it's been a year of change I want everyone to talk about what they're manifesting In honor of Amanda Dum Dum Francis She's like, you're welcome

37:10Ben Mandelker: Isn't it a moment, Andy? Are you even watching this season? And then the montage of Amanda saying like Oh my god, this is like a moment That is a moment It's a ghostwriter moment Yeah So they go around saying stuff that they want. Jennifer wants to win the main event at World Series of Poker, which is awesome. That's actually, I love it like an actual real goal from somebody. A tangible goal. Yeah. Amanda's like, what am I manifesting? Okay. I'm manifesting more goodness for everyone here. And I'm manifesting more of everything I want. I have a great life. I want more of it.

38:10Ben Mandelker: Yeah, that's exactly that Where am I? I got confused so I don't even know what to say anymore about this. Come on, manifest me finding your place in the reunion, Ben. I'll manifest something. I want a man in my life, preferably a man with the last name of Brown so I don't really have to change it again because that was a lot of paperwork. I didn't understand it. And if the Pope wants to write me another letter, we'll stime him. You know what I'm saying? They're like, wow, okay, great. And Rachel's like, yeah, you know what? I just want to manifest laughing. I just want to keep laughing. Like, that's so important.

38:48Like, I just want to, like, laugh, you know? Like, if it's raining outside, or if it's, like, sunny outside, or if I have shoes, or I don't have shoes, I just want to laugh. One thing I'll never laugh about, pants. Like, if someone makes me wear pants, that won't be funny. Is it still my turn?

39:06Ben Mandelker: Yeah, when people see me, Rachel Zoe, they're like, oh my god, laughter.

That's what I am. Okay. All right. We got it. You laugh. You laugh, Rachel, or at least you are presenting an image that you'd laugh. Okay. Doreen, what about you? What are you manifesting that PK and I can stay on a good track? And if I can't, then I'll just leave a trail of donuts to the track and then he can get onto it.

40:30Ben Mandelker: No, I just want to announce that we're going to finish things off with a toast. It's Beverly Hills. Matcha is having a moment. So I thought it would be apropos to channel that into our drink of choice, a ceremonial grade matcha tea to Amanda. Well, now you can say it. You got to turn back to Amanda. Ceremonial matcha, Kyle. So Kyle gives a speech and she's like, here's to everybody learning and growing. that if they have something to say to Dorit, it's not fair to make me do it alone and then look stupid through a whole reunion.
