What I Watched Today

(rambling, random thoughts & annoyingly detailed recaps from real time TV watching)

 

Sorry for the delay. I couldn’t publish earlier due to technical difficulties.

General Hospital

Nina looks at the finalized divorce decree, and her half-heart necklace. Valentin walks into her office, saying he got his too. He asks her not to sign it, and not to end the marriage.

Curtis goes to the hospital to find out if the DNA results are in.

At The Floating Rib, Lucy thinks not-Doc feels feverish. She asks what he needs, and he says, space. Lucy says it’s a telltale sign; he’s a snark beast when he’s under the weather. He says she has no idea, but she tells him that their marriage made her an expert on him. Lulu comes into the restaurant. Lucy tells not-Doc that his eyes are watery, and that’s not good. He says he’s capable of taking care of himself. Lulu runs over to show them a picture of Spencer and Laura.

Jason calls Carly from the station to tell her that the DA and the commissioner are going to question him. Diane is away, but she’s sending an associate. She says he’s the best. Diane’s associate arrives, and introduces himself as Henry. Omg, he looks twelve. Jason explains that the DA is trying to tie Sonny and his father to the body found at Charlie’s. He’s not saying anything to them, and Sonny wants the case shelved. He tells Henry, do what takes to shut the DA down. Jordan and Margaux walk in.

Valentin says he, Nina and Charlotte were happy; they were a family. Charlotte needs her, and so does he. She tells him that he should have thought of that before he ruined an innocent child’s life. He says he had no idea he’d be a father one day, and run into a beautiful woman who would steal his heart and change his life forever. He was young, angry, and bitter. It was the biggest mistake of his life. She says she would if she could, but she can’t get past it. It’s all wrapped together with her own loss of a child. They have to be over. Valentin gets a text from Curtis, asking if he’s ready to find out if Sasha is Nina’s daughter. Nina signs the papers. He wishes her all the happiness in the world, and says he hopes she gets everything she ever wanted. She says the thing she’s most wanted, she’ll never have, and tells him goodbye.

Lucy says Lulu’s picture is a framer, and Lulu suggests not-Doc surprise her mom with it when she gets home. Lucy says not-Doc would be happier if his wife was with him. Lulu identifies, being without Dante, but says Dante’s work is important to him, and it’s important for Laura to be with Spencer. Lucy tells Lulu that not-Doc is sick, but it’s nothing a little TLC wouldn’t fix. She asks if Lulu wants to join them, but Lulu says she’s meeting Nina, who just changed the location. She tells not-Doc to feel better, and he says he’s not sick. Lucy says that’s just how he acts when he’s sick. Lulu says she’ll tell her mom to check on him. She leaves, and Lucy says she’s not taking no for an answer. Not-Doc asks if there was a question. She suggests he just let her take him home.

Also at The Floating Rib, Carly tells Mike that Jason is late, but he’ll be there. Mike asks if the DA is hounding him, and Carly says Jason has a lawyer, but doesn’t need anyone. He never talks to the police. Lulu approaches their table. She and Mike hug, and he asks about Dante. She tells Mike that he’s away on an assignment, but work is keeping her busy. He asks her to join them, but she says she has to be somewhere. After she leaves, Mike says, Dante hit the jackpot. Carly says, Lulu is great; almost as great as his memory tonight. He tells her, the disease is fickle. It gives and takes away. She says nothing can take away the love he’s spread in their hearts and minds. He says, just not his; not for long. He tells her maybe it’s a good thing Sonny isn’t there. They need to talk about what happens next.

Henry says the victim is the DA’s father; why is she doing the questioning? She should eb recusing herself. Jordan says when they get there, she’ll step back. Henry wonders why Jason is being questioned; the case is nonexistent. The gun was fired by one of Skully’s gang, and it’s a long list. Margaux says, Sonny is at the top, and Jason knows where the bodies are buried. Henry says Jason was in kindergarten when it happened. Where’s the new information they have that would warrant a meeting? Jordan says they believe Sonny’s father is as much a part of it as he is. Margaux tells Jason if he doesn’t want Mike scrutinized, she suggests he start talking.

Henry asks what they have on Mike. Jordan says Mike was an associate of Charlie Delaney’s, and Charlie’s Pub is where the remains were found. He asks how they’re connecting Sonny to that, and Margaux says Sonny tried to buy the pub, and thwarted Julian’s attempts at expansion to assure the remains were never found. Henry says the only fact he’s hearing is that Sonny tried to purchase the pub. It’s not unusual for a businessman to expand his holdings. The both know it’s conjecture, and inadmissible. He asks if Margaux even finished law school, and she says, Sonny pulled trigger, and his father helped him clean it up.

Carly thinks Mike should have this conversation with Sonny, but he says they’re a package deal, and she’s not as tightly wound as Sonny around difficult choices. He knew someone whose wife had the same thing. He couldn’t handle it, but refused to listen, forcing her to do things like eat. Carly says, cruelty in name of love. He says, it was not a peaceful ending. She says, it’s a sad story, but it’s not his. They intend to treat him with respect and dignity, and if it gets tough, they’ll call in the professionals. Mike says the arrangements at the house are incredible, and he loves Felix, but he needs to get out. He likes talking to people; it makes him feel more alive. Sometimes he gets lonely, and in his more lucid moments, he worries a lot. Carly asks, about what? and he says, having another Avery moment – or worse. He needs to be around people who understand, and professional help. He’s pretty sure he talked to Sonny about it, and got through, but since then, nothing happened. Unless he went on a tour of the facilities and forgot. He thinks it‘s time they do that.

Lucy wants to take not-Doc home, wrap him in a blanket, and feed him chicken soup. He says, there’s no getting rid of her, is there? and she says, no-siree-bob. He tells her to meet him at his place. She says she’s going to find the most healing soup that ever existed in Port Charles, and googles that exact phrase. She says she knew she’d win the fight, even if it’s the last thing she ever did. When she’s gone, he says she has no idea how right she is.

Lulu goes to Nina’s office. She asks if Nina is okay. Nina says she’s just dealing with this, indicating the divorce papers, even though she asked for it. Lulu says that makes it official. Lulu tells her that even though she has problems with Valentin, she knows he loves Charlotte and Nina. Nina says she loves him too. Who divorces someone they love? Lulu says, someone who knows the relationship will always be toxic. Nina says she can’t get past the thing with Peter, but she misses Charlotte. Maybe she should have stayed, and been there for her; sucked it up and been a mom. She apologizes for how that sounded, and Lulu says the more people who love her daughter, the better, but the strain would be palpable. It would be unhealthy for both of them. The message would be that it’s okay to stay with someone who hurts you. Nina says she could pretend, but Lulu says Charlotte is too smart for that. Nina says she’s indeed a smart little girl, and because of her decision, she’s going to lose her.

Valentin meets Curtis at the hospital, and asks if he’s opened the test. Curtis tells him, your money, your test, and hands it to him. Valentin is sure they’ll be back at square one. He opens it, and makes a shocked face. Curtis asks what it says, and Valentin tells him, it’s a match. Curtis looks at it, and says, Nina has a daughter. Valentin seems uneasy, and Curtis says he thought it’s what Valentin wanted. Valentin wonders how much the test can be trusted, and Curtis says, 99.9%. Valentin wants to wait to tell Nina until the other test comes in, but Curtis says, no way.

Lulu tells Nina that she doesn’t trust Valentin, but knows he wants what best for Charlotte. He knows Charlotte’s relationship with Nina is good for her, and so does she. She laugh about how they started off at each other’s throats, and Lulu says, loving a child can help push past anger and hostility.

Henry tells Margaux and Jordan that they have no evidence. Jordan says the victim was Skully’s lawyer. He wanted out, and he knew too much. Margaux says, so Sonny killed him, and Jordan adds, and his father wanted to protect him. Margaux says her father went to work one day, and never came home. Henry says she’s not objective. They have no evidence. They’re done here. Margaux says today she’s planning her father’s burial, and putting to rest someone she doesn’t know. She asks what about Jason’s kids? If he got gunned down, and there was no miracle, would they grieve thirty years from now? Would they remember him? Jason stays silent, as he always does. Henry suggests Jordan rein in Margaux; she’s verging on harassment. Margaux asks Jason, what if someone did to his kids what Sonny did to her mom and her? Would he let them get away with it?

Mike tells Carly, whenever he talks to Sonny, Sonny doesn’t want to put him in there. He doesn’t want to go, but it’s going to happen eventually. Carly says, it doesn’t have to be now, but Mike says he wants to do the daytime thing. He’ll be with people like him, and professionals just as good as Felix. Probably not as good at checkers, but they’ll learn. He says they have a way of leading the patients down Memory Lane. There’s music, field trips, and games. He’ll make a few bets, and rake in the winnings. Carly laughs. She asks if it’s something he really wants to do, and he says, it is. And it will lower the chances of another incident. They can all use a break. Carly says they don’t need one, but he wants to be prepared for what’s to come. He thinks daycare ill help with that. Carly says, okay; she’s in. Sonny will be too. Mike just has to explain it the way he did to her, and he’ll be sold.

Lucy comes over and hugs Mike. She asks if he has any pictures of his granddaughter, and he shows her on his phone. Carly steps away, and as she passes not-Doc’s table, she sees him tapping on it. She stands there, watching him for a moment. She approaches him, saying he’s tapping Morse code, like her neighbor at Ferncliff. Not-Doc says, is he? She says he’s tapping, help me. He tells her that he didn’t realize, but he had looked into it when she told him. It must have been a reaction to what happened. She assumes the situation is unchanged. She says she still has nightmares, and thinks she should take his advice, and continue therapy. If he’s still game. He says, sure, and she says she thought he’d be more enthusiastic. He says he is, but has a phone conference, and has to run. He tells her to call for an appointment.

Lucy tells Mike that she’d love sit and reminisce, but she promised a friend she’d take care of him. Mike says, lucky man. He doesn’t have to feel sick all alone. He’s lucky too. He has a whole family who thinks they’re even luckier to have him.

Margaux says she spent years wondering where her father was. When she became a prosecutor, she realized people don’t disappear without a trace. It’s likely they’re dead. She couldn’t be sure until now, but he was murdered and dumped in a foundation. Henry says, it’s terrible, but has nothing to do with Sonny. Jordan thanks them for their time. Margaux says, there are guys who tell themselves that they’re honorable criminals. They think they’re a good mobster, like Sonny. Like him. He kills, and makes widows of wives, and orphans of children. Where is the honor in that? Jordan says they’re free to go. Henry suggests she find a prosecutor who will follow procedure, or risk a lawsuit.

Lulu tells Nina that she spoke to Charlotte’s teacher. They’re having a book fair for children in need. Nina says she’d love to participate. Lulu says Charlotte’s teacher went on and on about Charlotte. She likes Charlotte, and says she’s bright and quick, but she also said Charlotte could be assertive. Nina says, good. That’s another word for strong. Lulu thinks it was her way of saying bossy. Nina says, Charlotte is a leader, not a follower. She’s a strong willed girl, ahead of the pack, and if that means being called bossy, it’s a good thing. Look who her mother is, and she’s calling bossy wrong? Lulu says she has nothing on Nina.

Curtis tells Valentin that GH is one of the most trusted labs in the country. Valentin says the point one will keep him up at night. Curtis says he grilled each lab rat within an inch of their life, and was told in great and boring detail, the strict procedures. He guarantees a second test will show the same results. Curtis says, Nina has a daughter. Valentin needs to tell her. She’s been in the dark too long. No more. Valentin agrees. Curtis says he’ll tell Sasha, but Valentin says, under no circumstances is she to know Nina is her mother.

On the phone, not-Doc talks to someone at Ferncliff, asking if real-Doc still believes he’s Doc. He’s sorry to hear that, and thinks it’s best real-Doc’s sedatives are increased. He’ll be incapacitated, but that’s better than the psychological torment, believing he’s Doc, trapped with no relief. It’s the most humane thing they can do. When he’s done, he opens a bag with a roll of coated wire coated. He tests its strength.

Lulu tells Nina the word used was assertive, and the teacher that they might want to keep an eye on Charlotte. Nina says she’ll be keeping an eye on the teacher. Lulu tells her not to burn Charlotte’s entire school year over it. And don’t ever tells herself she’s not a mother. She asks if Nina’s necklace is new.

Curtis says Nina will want to meet Sasha, and Valentin says Nina should be the one to make the decision. She doesn’t know that much, except that she was never told she was adopted. Valentin says he’s concerned about her wanting to get her hands on Nina’s money. He wants Nina to be able to approach this with her eyes open, and all the information. Curtis says Sasha went from being absolutely sure it couldn’t be possible, to seeing questions, and being anxious for answers. Valentin says, not until Nina is debriefed. Ha-ha! Using spy terms. Curtis asks if he’s heading there now. Valentin thanks him for being Nina’s friend, and making it happen. Curtis says, that’s not an answer. Valentin says he’ll be in touch.

Margaux tells Jordan she’s sorry she was a little over the top. Jordan says she’s allowed because of her father, but it only works once. Margaux says, they have no grounds for a lawsuit, but Jordan says she went way across the line. No more going after Mike. He’s sick, and they have nothing on him. It’s purely circumstantial. Margaux asks if Jordan is saying they’re giving up, and letting a cold-blooded murderer go. It’s not happening. She’s going to bring her father to justice, no matter what takes.

Jason arrives at The Floating Rib. Mike says, talk about the road to hell being paved with good intentions. Jason says they’ll be fine. They have nothing on Sonny. As long as they don’t find the gun, he’ll be in the clear. Mike says, they won’t. Jason asks if he’s sure. He couldn’t remember before. Mike says he remembers now; clear as day. No one will ever find the gun.

Jordan tells Margaux, no one is giving up. They need to locate the murder weapon, but need to be realistic. It was thirty years ago. With the absence of concrete evidence, they might have to accept it as unsolved. Margaux refuses. She has another way to nail him.

Mike knows he’s not a reliable source, but gun is gone. It was buried in Croton-on-Hudson (I was wondering if that was the town), Mike unearthed the body, and took the gun. On his way to Port Charles, he dropped it in the river. Carly asks if he’s 100% sure, and he says, 101%. He laughs, and says the gun has been sleeping with the fishes for decades. It’s over. Sonny has nothing to worry about.

Lulu asks Nina if the necklace is a gift from Valentin. Nina says, no; her mother. She kept it for sentimental reasons, but she doesn’t need it anymore. Lulu has to go, bur reminds Nina that she’s just a couple floors away, if she wants to talk. Her door is always open. Literally. She has a cubicle.

Curtis calls Sasha. He tells her the results aren’t in yet, but he’s eager for this to be done too.

Valentin enters Nina’s office. She says if he’s there to talk her out of the divorce, how many times does she have to say no? He says it’s not about the divorce. She asks if it’s about Charlotte, but he says, no. He needs to talk to her about her child.

Ryan tests the cord again. There’s a knock at the door, but it’s not Lucy. It’s Laura.

Tomorrow, Jordan tells Margaux that she’s too close to the investigation, Valentin tells Nina that her child is alive, and Laura says she’s back forever.

The Real Housewives of Orange County

Steve explains to Vicki how to ride behind him on a motorcycle, and that they’ll ride slow and smooth. In her interview, she says he’s turning sixty, and misses riding, so she encouraged him to get one. She’s scared riding on the back. We see a clip of her office manager telling her how she doesn’t trust motorcycles, and describing a horrific accident. As Steve drives, she keeps telling him to be careful and not go so fast, and screaming, which probably isn’t good for the driver. She goes no, no, no, no, no! as they go around a curve.

Shannon packs her supplements. When she packs, she tries to think of everything, and lists all the stuff she’s bringing. Her two younger girls are going to their dad’s, and she asks if they’re going to watch her QVC show. Tamra and Sophie are going with her to Philadelphia. She asks if they want a sign to them, but they think it will be weird. In her interview, she says she never had a lot of support about business ideas. We flash back to David being discouraging. She says she felt less than, and now it’s her chance to say she can make a success of herself. She says it’s difficult because she and David have different parenting approaches. She’s all about structure and discipline, while David is more lax. She had issues with her own mother, but is glad now that her mom pushed her toward traditional sense. One day her daughters will look back and realize it’s because she loved them. They don’t right now.

Vicki has stopped screaming. Maybe she had a heart attack. They stop for lunch, and we see they only traveled fifteen miles. In her interview, Vicki says it’s all about compromise. She doesn’t want Steve going to a biker bar alone. There’s only one biker bitch on the back, and it’s her. She tells him about the dinner party, and Gina crying about them questioning her divorce. She asks if she’s everything to Steve, and he says, everything and more. Vicki says she told Gina to make sure she knows what she’s doing, and Steve says that’s all she can do. In Vicki’s interview, she says, looking back on divorcing Don, she didn’t put effort in, and hasn’t seen effort from Gina. They should see if they can make it work. Being divorced is a forever decision. Well, not really. There’s Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton for one. Steve sagely says, the grass isn’t always greener, because he’s so Confucius. In her interview, Vicki wishes someone had shaken her, and told her to stay married. She screams some more on the way back.

Kelly calls Gina. She’s having a lunch at her love shack to watch Shannon. She’ll text the details.

Gina goes to lunch with her parents, Susan and Gino. Susan asks what Gina is telling the kids, and Gina says they’re going to therapy. She says they have to keep the kids comfortable. Gino says he has less than two years of working left, and afterward, unlimited options. Susan is glad Gina and Matt relocated to a place they want to live. Gino asks how Gina is feeling. She knows it’s the right thing, but it’s hard and sad. Gino says they’re shocked concerned, but Gina has a great support system, and she’s always made good decisions. In her interview, Gina says she struggled with telling them, since they’ve been married forty years. They’re in love, and she wants that for herself. Gina tells them about Tamra introducing her to the others. She says they went to dinner, and the other women are jaded about the divorces they’ve been through. We flash back to Gina saying, it’s not about money. She tells her parents she’s just hanging out, getting to know them, and going through one of the hardest things. She thinks that instead of making her feel scared and worse, they should be giving her a hug. She says they also told her that she had no emotions. She has plenty; she just chooses not to share them. In Gina’s interview, she says Emily and Tamra are her friends, but the others, not so much. She needs friends who lift her up and really listen. Susan toasts to a happy, healthy life. I’m hoping Gina’s father isn’t on the show much. He’s a nice guy, but it’s hard switching between Gina and Gino in the same paragraph.

Emily loves it that her in-laws live around the corner. It makes easy for them to watch the kids. She can pull up, and say, chaos is here. She visits Pary, and they sit outside while the kids play in the fabulous yard. Emily says she still has embryos left, and wants another girl. Her sister is best friend even now. In her interview, Emily says she and her sister connect on an emotional level, and she wants Annabelle to have the same thing as she has with Sarah. Pary says her body couldn’t handle it before; she almost died. In Emily’s interview, she explains that she had five miscarriages in four years. She got twins using in vitro, but lost them when she was in labor. She needed a blood transfusion, and thought that’s what it feels like to die. She can remember the hospital room, and the lights, and the nurses crying. She tells Pary that she can’t make the decision anyway; Shane is not on board. But when someone tells her no, she wants to do it more. She says Pary’s husband didn’t want kids or a house. What happened?

Tamra meets Shannon and Sophie at the hotel. Shannon asks about Eddie, and Tamra says he went through a third cardio procedure, and it worked. Shannon says it means the world to her that Tamra is there, and Tamra says she’ll do amazing. She’s nervous, and Tamra asks if she has a script. Shannon doesn’t, but says maybe she should bring a card. If it goes well, she’ll be asked back, and Tamra tells her, be prepared. In her interview, Shannon says, we’re succeeding.

Kelly takes Jolie to a musical theater audition. Jolie was in Bugsy Malone last year, and this year, Oliver! is being performed. Usually, her dad takes her to auditions, since theater isn’t Kelly’s jam. She was more of a tom boy growing up, and thought theater people were dorks. Jolie has a passion for it, and she wants to support that. The kids do vocal exercises. In her interview, Kelly says she doesn’t know how they keep straight faces. They go through a dance combination. Kelly thinks it’s huge. Jolie won’t be scared to do things like public speaking. It gives her a creative outlet to express herself, and builds confidence. Kelly says she didn’t do that, but turned out kind of okay.

Gina meets Vicki for coffee, and I say, ugh. out loud. In her interview, Vicki says she felt responsible. She doesn’t want anyone leaving her home crying. She wants Gina to know she’s there for her. She wants to encourage and help Gina, and open her eyes. Gina tells Vicki that her parents are celebrating forty years together. In Vicki’s interview, she says her generation respected marriage. With this generation, it’s like changing shoes. Gina says she doesn’t look at it like it’s so terrible. Vicki just wants to protect her about what’s in store. Gina says Vicki hurt her feelings when she said Gina had no moral compass. Vicki doesn’t remember how it came out, and says. of course Gina has morals. She was just worried about the kids. Gina shouldn’t be so selfish. Gina says she’s not.

Gina tells Shannon that she’s making a rational decision as an adult, and it’s for her kids. Vicki says if she did it over, she wouldn’t have divorced. Gina says she’s in a better place now, but Vicki thinks she needed to water the grass she was in. Gina says Vicki is happy now, and she’s too hard on herself. In her interview, Gina says because of her age, there’s a stigma, but the day you stop learning from others, no matter what their age, you stop learning. She thinks Vicki should learn from her. Vicki says her daughter claims her generation is messed up because of their parents divorces. She wants to be supportive, and tells Gina to create her own destiny. She says the women thought she seemed like she didn’t care. Gina says she’s just keeping it positive. In her interview, Vicki thinks Gina has the notion that nothing will change financially, but like Shannon and Kelly, she doesn’t work, and is solely dependent on her husband. She should take a look at them, and know it’s not easy. Vicki suggests Gina look at insurance, since legally, he can’t keep her on his. Are you kidding me? Vicki is going to make a sales pitch in this conversation?

In Philadelphia, Shannon, Tamra, and Sophie sit in the lobby bar and have something to drink. Tamra asks if Shannon is scared. Shannon thinks once it starts, she’ll settle in. Tamra says Kelly is having a viewing party, and we flash back to the one for Heather, where Tamra called in. She says David sent Eddie a picture of his new Porsche, and Sophie says she took it for a spin, but didn’t tell him – until she knocked the side mirror off. Tamra calls it Ferris Bueller style, and we flash back to Shannon riding with Sophie when she was first driving. In Shannon’s interview, she says Sophie has driven her car zero times since then. I say, maybe. Sophie says she’ll just take the keys when he’s at work.

The ladies arrive at QVC. Shannon says it’s crazy; she walked up the same stairs exactly five months ago. Her friend, Stacy, greets her, and everyone hugs. Shannon say she has the opportunity to create something on her own, not depending on any man. She’s going to stand on her own two feet. She’s excited to show her daughters what a woman can do. If she can do it at her age, they can do anything. The culinary stylist (I never knew there was such a thing) explains how it works. In her interview, Tamra says it’s a huge moment for Shannon. It’s her first shot at being independent after David. She didn’t know water was a utility. Okay, in Shannon’s defense, neither did I. When you live in apartments, you rarely pay for water. They decide someone else will handle the product, and Shannon will do the explanation, so her back is never to the camera. Shannon says something too loudly, not realizing they’re filming live on another stage. The manager tells her if she’s not asked back, that’s why. I think she’s joking, but I’m not sure.

Kelly’s friend, Jack, helps her set up for the viewing party. Vicki and Emily show up first. Emily loves Kelly’s bachelorette pad. She wants to hang out there. They FaceTime with Shannon. Kelly brags about styling her, and Vicki tells her, break a leg. Probably a bad choice of words, considering Shannon and Tamra are both getting over injuries. Gina arrives, and they toast to Shannon. Emily adds, to friends helping and supporting each other.

It’s time, and Shannon says she’s blanking.

Gina talks about her parents kissing, and that it’s gross. Kelly talks about seeing her parents do something I don’t want to think about parents doing.

Tamra feels like her child is preforming. Twenty seconds. Host Sharon introduces Shannon. In Tamra’s interview, she says she’s nervous. Shannon always goes to the negative first. She wants her to be more positive, and not talk about her weight.

Shannon begins by telling the audience that she was on an emotional rollercoaster, and needed to create a balanced lifestyle. Kelly thinks she looks like a pro. Shannon drops her card, bends under the table to pick it up. Watching in the green room, Tamra tells her, don’t bend over on live TV. Sharon says Shannon didn’t just decide it was a good idea. She had things going on in her life, and needed to rethink what was happening, and how to share her knowledge with others who are finding it difficult. Shannon says she’s got this going on, and grabs her belly. Kelly is like, really? Kelly says she doesn’t have to point out that she has a big ass. Vicki says no one would have noticed if she hadn’t pointed it out. On the screen, Shannon says it made sense that if she made healthy choices during the week, she could have a few cocktails on the weekend. Tamra thinks she did a great job. Who needs David now? She’ll have her own money; as a woman, it makes you feel good inside. Sharon tells Shannon that she was amazing. When she goes back to the green room, Tamra and Sophie scream.

Shannon says her dream is becoming a reality. She’s grateful and overwhelmed. Being able to share this moment with her daughter and best friend, is something she’ll look back on forever. She looks at all the supportive texts she’s gotten.

Vicki calls to order, and says Shannon good friend, and they hang up. Vicki says they thought it was a prank call. Kelly tries, impersonating Vicki (badly), and they hang up again. The ladies FaceTime with Shannon. She asks if they want to get together when she gets back, and Kelly says, girls trip. Shannon is told she’s sold 1100 units in about eight minutes. Tamra says, they’re clearly asking her back. Tamra suggests they celebrate, but Shannon says she just wants to be sold out.

In her interview, Shannon says the sky’s the limit. She lost a marriage, but found herself. She’s proud of herself. We see the Rocky statue.

Next time, Vicki encourages Michael to have kids soon, Emily discusses having another child with Shane, Eddie has possible AFib, and Gina is scared she won’t see anybody again.

🏈 Loving Bravo Play by Play. Tonight, Jerry asked Dave if he thought Brandi (Real Housewives of Dallas) was going to be the new villain. Dave said, with a show that has LeeAnne, it’s hard to snatch that crown. Agreed.

💀 Where Mike Threw the Gun…

😵 This Makes Two in a Row…
