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.

Ronnie Karam (0:34)

So Vicki and Tamar come now and they're singing.

I'm just overwhelmed. I mean, I would have done other things if I knew you were coming. I would have forgot. Troy, stop popping that woman's leg.

Ben Mandelker (0:48)

Hey, you know what?

SPEAKER_3 (0:49)

Girls, thank you for coming.

Ben Mandelker (0:51)

I just want to establish myself more for my birthday. That's my birthday wish.

SPEAKER_3 (0:55)

And Vicki's helping me with my finances and I put a lot of money into Real for Real. And thank you all again for choosing not to support it. I think that's a great testament to your independence that you don't just do things for friends because they ask you to. Thank you. So I shut it down last year and I lost a lot of money.

Oh, wow. So much money.

Actually, it turns out I was $75,000 just short of keeping it in business. So that's too bad. Only had that $75,000 left in my bank account.

Ronnie Karam (1:29)

Anyway, if I mentioned that I hate flying commercial, it's hilarious. I think I was telling you guys from my private... Anyway, money, money. Let's stop talking about money. What's your selfish wish, Shannon? Just be selfish for once. Well, I would like to be a mom again. Maybe take my kids on a trip. Oh, okay. Well, maybe more affordably selfish.

Let's try that, affordably selfish.

Ben Mandelker (1:55)

And yeah, Shannon says that her selfish wishes to take her kids on a trip, and Mickey goes, well, of course, but not first class, right? We're only doing coach. Only coach. We already talked about that. Heather was clearly zoned out, just sort of heard... She heard like certain buzzwords, and like immediately she thought like, oh, we're planning the cash trip. And so she hears trip and we're flying coach.

SPEAKER_4 (2:17)

She goes, what?

Ben Mandelker (2:18)

Where are we going, coach?

SPEAKER_4 (2:19)

What?

Ben Mandelker (2:21)

She goes from being like, look at me, I'm television's Heather Dubrow enjoying a pizza with a friend in a small house. And to suddenly like her eyes just turned black, we are not flying coach anywhere.

SPEAKER_4 (2:34)

Not you, Heather, geez.

SPEAKER_3 (2:36)

Yeah, not you, sweetie. Okay, it's all right.

Ronnie Karam (2:39)

She's really swearing, look at Heather.

It's the most emotional we've seen out of Heather in years. Heather's like, whoa, okay, listen. There were years we flew coach, but now we've moved to the front. It would be very difficult to go back. I don't even like flying commercial.

Ben Mandelker (2:57)

They're like putting like a trauma blanket around her, like patting down her forehead.

SPEAKER_3 (3:01)

It's okay, Evan. We're not flying coach, you can be our coach.

Ben Mandelker (3:05)

I just was, it was so scary there for a moment. I was terrified.

Ronnie Karam (3:10)

So Tamara's like, well, Shannon's been talking about moving to New York. You're going to do that, Shannon. I think it's like, we're the Tres Amigas. We can't do that if you're in New York. I thought you guys broke up. What the hell? That show's still going on. Geez.

Ben Mandelker (3:25)

No, we're the Tres Amigas, but we're working on being friends again. So all three of us, right?

SPEAKER_4 (3:29)

Oh, really? How's that going?

SPEAKER_3 (3:31)

Tamara's like, I thought we were.

SPEAKER_4 (3:33)

And Emily says, well, Shannon's going to have lunch with Tamara, everybody.

Ben Mandelker (3:36)

And we see a flashback to Carmella's house where basically Tamara's like, hey, let's get lunch.

SPEAKER_3 (3:41)

And Tamara's like, yeah, I'm having so much fun with you. And I think that like we should like don't have cactus, just have fun, betch.

Ronnie Karam (3:49)

Yeah, she's telling us, I don't know, I just don't get why Shannon just can't get over me. You know, Shannon just can't forgive me for whatever reason.

SPEAKER_3 (3:56)

I don't even know what it is.

Ronnie Karam (3:57)

It's so crazy. And then they show her like, you drunk, stupid, single, sly a**, and nobody likes you.

SPEAKER_3 (4:04)

What, what, did I drive into a house or something? Did I drive into a house like yeee?

No, Shannon and I had a great time in Vegas. No, she didn't crash into any single building. And I just feel like we're progressing. Instead, like, we don't have to talk about the past, betch. We can just talk and have fun like our times. About me saying we don't have to talk about the past. I will bring up the past later in this episode.
