What I Watched Today

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

General Hospital

Monica sees someone holding pizza boxes through the front window, and says, look at that. She didn’t even have to order this year; they just knew to deliver the pizza. She opens the door, and Drew is there. He says he rolled the dice, and brought some with him. Olivia and Ned come out, and Olivia says, thank God; she’s famished. Brook and Chase come downstairs, and Brook says, pizza’s here. Ned says, Drew? and Drew says, at least someone in the family still recognizes him. He’s… Monica says, home, and hugs him.

Dante tells Sam that Danny and Scout are asleep, and he put Rocco in the spare room. He didn’t say anything about Jason, but he thinks they know something is going on. Sam says, because they didn’t go to the Quartermaines? and Dante says, yeah. He thought Danny figured the dinner was just going to be ruined as usual. He said he was looking forward to having some pizza. She says she ordered turkey burgers, and throws her glass against the wall, smashing it.

At the hospital, Obrecht is yelling in her sleep, when Britt comes in and wakes her up. She tells Obrecht that she was having a nightmare, and Obrecht says she was back in the tunnel. Has Britt had any nightmares? Britt says she’s good. She’s more worried about Obrecht. Why didn’t she say she was lightheaded after the tunnel collapsed? She was running around, taking care of Britt, when she knew she was injured herself. Obrecht says Britt was more important. They haven’t really talked since leaving that cursed island. Britt says Obrecht needs rest, not visitors. She just popped in to see how Obrecht was doing. Go back to sleep; no more nightmares. Obrecht says she hopes none for Britt as well.

Carly weeps at the patio table, and flashes back on Jason saying goodbye before he left for Greece. Sonny comes out, and holds her as she cries. I have zero sympathy.

In her office, Britt tries to go through messages on the computer, and has them forwarded to Terry. She writes, dear staff, please send all of your requests to Dr. Terry Randolph, as at the moment, I am a total mess and completely incapable of making any decisions. She grabs a tissue to wipe her tears, when Austin comes in. He says, she was just on the tenth floor, and now she’s here. How did she do that? She asks what he wants, and he says, he guesses he wants to know what’s wrong, and if there’s anything he can do to help.

Monica says she still can’t believe it wasn’t a plane crash; that Drew was abducted by Peter August. Ned says, and fought for two years to come home. If Drew hadn’t managed to get ahold of that guard’s cellphone, and called Sam… Olivia says, he could still be in that hellhole. Brook wonders why Sam wouldn’t have told them he called, but Drew asks them not to blame Sam. She just did it to protect all of them until she knew for sure he was alive. Believe him, there were many days when even he didn’t know if he was going to make it back. Monica wishes Jason could be there to share the Thanksgiving pizza, but he’s got to be with this children. Drew looks down, and she asks if there’s something he’s not saying? Drew says, what his rescue cost this family.

Sam asks if she woke the kids, but Dante says, they’re fast asleep. Sam says, thank God for small favors, and starts to clean up the mess, but Dante takes the dustpan from her. He tells to her to go sit, stare into space, eat, cry, do whatever she feels she needs to do, to feel better. Throw another glass. She says she thinks she got throwing glasses out of her system, and Dante starts cleaning up. She says she had such tunnel vision when she was talking to Drew. All she wanted was for Scout’s father to come home to her. Never in a million years did she think it would come at the cost of Jason losing his life. Now Scout’s father is alive, and Danny’s father is dead. Is it some kind of cosmic joke or something? He says, if it is, it’s a pretty awful one, and she says she has to tell her son that his father is gone. Is Danny going to hate Scout because her father lived and his died? He says, no, and leads her to the couch to sit. He says, Danny isn’t going to waste his energy on hate. He’s got this amazing mother; so does Scout. She’s going to love them so much, and teach them there’s no room in their lives for hate.

Carly asks what Sonny’s connections in Greece said, and he says, they confirmed Anna’s story that the tunnel under the house collapsed. Everybody got out but Jason, and they still haven’t found the body. She says, that means Jason could still be alive, but he says, the equipment didn’t pick up a heartbeat in the tunnel. So they’re going to stop the rescue operation, and Jason’s dead. She says, no. They told her the same thing about Sonny, and it turned out not to be true. He says he wants to believe Jason’s still out there too. He was dead before and came back to them. She says he did, and he asks if she’s just trying to give herself hope. She says, after that bridge collapsed, she could hear him calling to her; she could feel he was still alive. He says, she was the lady in white that he needed to see, and she says, that’s because they’re connected. They have a connection; she can feel him. It was everyone else who told her that he was gone. Everyone kept saying it. He asks if she’s saying the same thing about Jason. Is she saying there’s hope? She says, that’s what she wants to believe.

Obrecht hears the door open, and says, if it’s Britt again, there’s nothing wrong with her that sleeping in her own bed won’t fix. Scotty comes over to the bed, and says, what about the guy who loves her? Welcome back, my schnitzel. He sits on the bed, and they kiss.

Britt tells Austin, walk back out the door, and pretend she wasn’t here. And if he tells anyone what he saw, she’ll have him fired. He says her secret is safe with him, but the next time she wants to have herself a good cry – he closes the door – maybe she wants to shut the door. She says, thanks for the unwanted advice, and he wonders if he should take a guess as to what some of these larger emotions are about, but she says, no. He says, it’s Thanksgiving, and no one’s invited her to dinner, and so she’s sitting there feeling sorry for herself. Join the club. He sits down, and she asks, what’s going on with him? Couldn’t make it on the ELQ board? Unable to honor his late lamented father? Boo-hoo-hoo. He says, sticks and stones. It’s been a very challenging couple of days, to be honest. The Quartermaines stuck a knife in his back, and then they twisted it, and then they invited him to Thanksgiving dinner. She says, oh horror, and he says, and in the middle of this, he might have screwed up the only friendship he has in this terrible town. She asks if he’s referring to Maxie. What happened? Does he want her to talk to Maxie? He says, no; thank you though. He’ll figure it out and make amends. What’s going on? Why is she sitting there crying instead of splitting a wishbone with someone? She says, the first person she’s cared to split a wishbone with in a long time is gone, and he died saving her life.

Drew says, the first months at the compound, when he finally had some contact with the other prisoners, there was a very nice young woman, a nurse who was abducted in the middle of her life, and Liesl Obrecht. Brook says, Scotty was shouting from the rooftops that Obrecht was missing, and Drew says, Britt convinced Jason to help her find her mother, and that search led them to Cassadine Island. Monica says, that’s probably why she hasn’t heard from Jason in a while. He probably didn’t want to raise her hopes up about Drew being alive. Drew says, Jason and Britt did everything they possibly could to get him home, but… in the process, Jason… Jason… She says, he’s gone, isn’t he? Jason’s gone.

Carly tells Sonny, it would be crazy to give up hope that Jason’s alive. She’s known Jason since practically the moment he became Jason. Even before she knew Sonny. So she can’t give up hope. Jason is the most important person to them. Josslyn comes in, apologizing for being late. She sees Carly’s face, and says, okay, who died?… Oh my God. Who died? Carly says they need to talk to her.

Monica cries, and Drew says he’s so very sorry. There was nothing left of the last place he saw Jason. It was just a pile of rocks and beams. They had crews on site within the hour, and they had their scanning equipment there. They couldn’t pick up a heartbeat. Jason died bringing him back home to her, but he promises, if he’d known what his freedom was going to cost, he wouldn’t have taken the deal. She tells him, don’t ever say anything like that again. He and Jason are both her sons in every way that matters, and one doesn’t count more than the other.

Monica remembers how happy Jason was, dancing at his reception. He and Carly were having a wonderful time, and he was even socializing. Olivia says she was really impressed by that, and Monica says, she thinks he would have stayed for the whole thing if she hadn’t told them to slip away and go start lives together. Then he told her they would. She cries again, and Olivia says, Carly… and Sonny, it’s just going to kill them. Jason was just like a brother to Sonny, and Carly and Jason… Monica says, Carly and Jason said it was a business arrangement, but you saw the two of them together, and knew it was more than that.

Josslyn says, but it’s Jason; he must have survived. Just like Sonny did. Carly says, he was buried under rock when the tunnel collapsed; there were witnesses. Josslyn cries, and asks if they’ve told Michael, but Carly says they want to tell him in person like they did her. Sonny says, there’s a media blackout for the next 24 hours, so anyone close to Jason will have privacy, and not to give Peter August the publicity he’s craving. Carly says, Michael, Willow, and Wiley will be back tomorrow; they’ll tell them then. Josslyn says she can’t believe this is happening, not to Jason. Carly holds her as she cries.

Sam thanks Dante for saying there’s enough room in her kids’ life for love, and he says, that’s true. She’s an incredible mother. Don’t let anyone tell her otherwise. She says, despite her family being dysfunctional. She’s talking about the family she grew up with, not the family she has now, which in their own right, are equally dysfunctional. He says, despite her family dysfunction, she turned out to be an incredible person, and she tells him, says the guy who’s not so objective. He says he knows she put her kids before Jason when she showed Jason the door, and she says, it’s because Jason wouldn’t cut ties with Sonny. She understood that, and also understood that there would always be a threat that Jason would be arrested again, or in the middle with one of Sonny’s very violent rivals, and she had to do what was best for her kids to keep them out of harm’s way. Dante says, that was a good move, and she says, they both know Jason is the kind of person who will put his life first to save someone else, but she needed someone in her family who would think twice before doing something like that. He says, good for her, and she says, in the end, she knew this was how it was going to go for Jason. To be honest, if they were still together, there’s no way she would be able to recover.

Monica says, she remembers the first day Jason ever became her son. Scotty, of all people, was his guardian at the time, and they went to the gatehouse to check on him, and he was the most beautiful baby. The minute she took him in her arms, he stole her heart. Brook says, occasionally, she would see him dropping Danny off, or playing with Leo, or stopping by to talk to Monica or Michael, and Ned says, Michael. Do they tell him? Monica says, no. Let’s let Michael and Willow have a good time with Wiley. Besides, she thinks Carly would want to be the one to tell him. She’s not going to have any new memories of Jason; just remember the conversations they had. The good part is, every time they were together, she told him that she loved him. Drew says, all his memories of Jason are so full of anger and resentment. Now that they started to finally connect as brothers, he’s gone. Monica sighs, officially taking over from Jason in that department.

Austin digs in his pockets, and Britt asks what he’s looking for. He says, like a kewpie doll, or a beta fish, some kind of little prize for the saddest Thanksgiving story. Sorry. That’s inappropriate. He makes jokes that aren’t always funny. It’s a default coping mechanism. She says, same here. It hasn’t always won her a ton of friends, but she prefers his morbid humor over tearful hugs any day. He asks who it was, and she says, Jason Morgan. She’s sorry; Austin is sort of family, isn’t he? He says, cousins, half-cousins, or something like that. He’s not sure. He never really got to know the guy. They had a conversation at the gym one time, and he was Maxie’s plus one at Jason’s wedding… Now it’s his turn to apologize. Sorry. He’s a little confused. He got the sense something was going on between Britt and Jason, then Jason up and married Carly. She says, she thought she and Jason had something special. They did actually, but he married Carly, and she’s still struggling to understand why. He says, if that’s the only thing she’s struggling to understand, she’s way ahead of him, and she says she just never thought Jason would die before her. He asks how she figured that out?

Scotty says, he can’t believe he was chucked out of a plane, and Obrecht says, and she was taken to Greece. He says, and all the other calamities that would have killed the average Joe. She says, he survived, and he says, so did she. She says, love conquers all, so they say, and he tells her, he didn’t used to believe that, but he thinks it’s true. She says, keep talking like that, and she’ll demand to be released from this bed to spend time in his. He says, why make that journey? and pulls off his jacket, climbing into bed with her.    

Britt tells Austin, she doesn’t know what she means; her brain’s a muddled mess. He says, Jason was a hitman for the mob, and she says, alleged hitman. He says, you have to figure, given Jason’s career choices and line of work, he’d be the first one to go. This is inappropriate again; he’s sorry. She tells him, don’t apologize. She appreciates honesty over platitudes. The thing is, Jason’s body hasn’t been recovered yet, but she knows he’s gone. Austin says, she’s a doctor who’s worked in trauma; she knows. And they both know every life counts. It doesn’t matter how much you hope. She says she’s not a particularly hopeful person, but there’s no wishing away several tons of rock. He says he’s going home, and going to order a turkey burger and sweet potato fries. Does she like football? She’s welcome to join him. He’s going to stream all the games. She thanks him, but says, there’s something she has to go to, and leaves.

Drew tells Ned, Peter had them chained up in a wine cellar; they were literally chained to the wall. Ironically, those were the best conversations he and Jason had. Mostly they were talking about how they were going to bring down Peter, but they also just talked. He told Jason about playing football in high school, and Jason told him about the time he rode a motorcycle into the house. Ned says he remembers that; grandfather was furious. Drew says, they were just starting to know each other and trust each other. When Peter activated his conditioning, Jason was the one who brought him out of it. They were just starting to team up; be the brothers they were meant to be. Ned says, that is something to be grateful for, and Drew says, he spent so much time resenting Jason, until Cassadine Island, until he was able to respect Jason wholeheartedly. Now he has no future with Jason at all. Jason is gone, just as they were starting to connect as brothers and as friends.

Josslyn says, sorry for crying all over Carly’s blouse, but Carly says Josslyn can cry on her anytime. Sonny asks if she wants something to eat, but Josslyn says, no. She thinks she’ll just go upstairs. She tells them that she loves them both, and Carly says, they love her too. Josslyn leaves, and Sonny says he forgot how important Jason was to all of them. Carly kisses his forehead, and he asks if she’s going to be all right. She says, yeah, and he says, he’s going upstairs and reading Donna a bedtime story. Carly tells him to give Donna a kiss for her.

Dante tells Sam not to underestimate herself. She’s strong and resilient, and would have survived; no problem. Sam tells him, don’t say that to make her feel better, and he asks if he’s ever said anything to make her feel better. She says, that’s true, and he says, it seems she has a lot of thoughts she needs to work through, and she says she has so many thoughts racing in her head, she can’t grab ahold of just one. He says he’ll leave her to it, and she asks where he’s going. He says he figured she wanted to wrestle through those thoughts in private, and asks if he can leave Rocco there and pick him up in the morning. He’ll stop at the Quartermaines and tell them she said hello. She says, no. Stay. Please. She wants him to stay.

Sonny comes back to the kitchen, saying, Donna fell asleep before… The kitchen is empty, and he puts his head in his hands, mourning the loss of Jason, and the moss bowl 🎍.

Monica says, if the deaths of those they love have taught them anything, it’s to appreciate the family they have. They’re going to be grieving a long time, but she thinks today, a day of giving thanks, she’d like to focus on the gratitude she feels for the son coming home. To Drew. They toast to Drew, and Drew says, to Jason.

Dante asks if Sam is sure she wants him to stay, and she says, if he wants to go, he can, but he says, he doesn’t want to. He just wanted to give her space. She says, there’s enough space to include him, and he tells her, that’s the nicest thing anyone’s said to him in a long time. She says, they’ve bene through hell and back. There’s no other shoulder she’d rather cry on than his. He says, his shoulder will always be there for her.

Brook says she’s going to check on Bailey, and Ned says, maybe Chase would like to see the daughter he only just learned is his. She says, of course (🍷); he can feed her. Chase says, he’d love to, and they go upstairs. Drew says, the family has gotten bigger since he left, and Monica says, it’s a refreshing change of pace. Olivia says she can’t believe Drew is alive and home safe. How did Robert and Anna figure out Peter was hiding on Cassadine Island? Drew says he doesn’t know the details, just that Valentin was very helpful. Ned asks if Valentin knows Drew is back.

Sonny leaves Carly a voicemail, saying, he knows she needs to clear her head, but just call so he knows she’s okay.

Carly goes to the footbridge.

Sonny gets a call from and unknown number. When he answers, Cyrus says, hello, Sonny.

Dante kisses Sam, and says he’s sorry if he overstepped, but she says, he didn’t. She wants this too. We see the fireplace, and I assume they get busy.

Drew says, Anna told him something about Valentin helping her and Robert find their way off Cassadine Island, so he’s assuming she told Valentin he’s alive and back home. Why did Ned ask? Ned says, just curious, and Drew asks, what was the disaster that ruined Thanksgiving this year? Monica says, Annabelle II got to the turkey before them, and Drew says, of course (🍷). She knew there was a tradition to uphold. Monica says, Annabelle is going to be over the moon to see Drew, and they go to look for her. My guess is, she’s working on the pumpkin pie. Olivia tells Ned, stop. What is he planning? She knows that look. Ned… Ned says, it’s about ELQ, but he doesn’t want her to get the wrong impression. He’s not backsliding, and he’s not prioritizing business over family. She says, his face lit up like a firecracker the minute Drew mentioned Valentin’s name. The war isn’t over yet, is it?

Austin knocks on Obrecht’s room door, and says, he doesn’t mean to disturb her. He opens the door, and says, sorry. Obrecht and Scotty pop up from under the covers, and say, get out, at the same time. Austin says, so sorry, and leaves. In the hallway, he says, all righty. Good for them.

At the footbridge, we go down Jason Memory Lane with Carly, and there’s a song part. She turns, and sees Britt.  

Sonny says, is that Cyrus? How did he get a phone? Cyrus says, don’t worry about that. They both know he has ways. He thought it would be prudent for him to reach out to Sonny, and Sonny asks, why’s that? Cyrus says he still has contacts, a few, those who are interested in those sorts of things. He heard the news about Sonny’s best friend. His condolences to Sonny, and to his lovely wife. No doubt she’s just as upset as Sonny. Sonny says, listen you son of a bitch. Either Cyrus hangs up or they get cut off, and Sonny throws the phone.

Tomorrow, Ava and Nikolas arrive for Thanksgiving, Monica is sure Drew is anxious to get back to his old life, Mac wants to question Chase and Brook about Valentin, and Sonny says, if Cyrus wants a war, he’ll give Cyrus a war.    

Vanderpump Rules

Pilates instructor Betsy met with Katie, Scheana, and Lala, while Brock, James and Schwartz played golf. James was on his game, and thought it was because he’d been sober for a while. Sandoval joined them, and in his interview, he said, he hates golf, but loves golf fashion. Pilates looked a lot easier using machines. Although it’s the type of fitness program that seems harmless while you’re doing it, and the next day, you say, what the hell? After the session, Lala said she’d had a good conversation with Brock, then Sandoval ruined the night by bringing up the same old sh*t, which Lala called getting on the hamster wheel. Sure enough, Sandoval whined to the guys about Lala saying he was on a hamster wheel. Katie said Sandoval probably kept notes. He had history too, and should make sure he could pass his own test. In Lala’s interview, she said, Sandoval was so sanctimonious, the name of the bar should be Sanctimonoval. Katie told the girls about the Toms’ partner Greg wanting her to be on board, and Lala said it would eat Sandoval alive. In Scheana’s interview, she said she had her own history with Katie and Lala being mean girls, and we flashed back to that. She wanted to tell them, STFU, but she couldn’t get it out. Schwartz wanted to have a creative session, and James was down for testing mocktails. In Sandoval’s interview, he said he wanted off-the-wall, presentational cocktails. Then spilled the one next to him. At the golf game, they decided to see whose ball could go further, and the winner got to shoot a ball off a tee placed in the loser’s butt crack. I am not making this up. James was the winner, Sandoval the loser (his ball basically just falling off the tee), and Brock filmed on his phone. Good times…

Katie told Schwartz that Greg liked her, and wanted her to be involved with the new bar. She thought it was in everyone’s best interest that she was included as much as possible. In Katie’s interview, she said, Greg liked her ideas, and it not only validated her, but annoyed TF out of Sandoval. It was mocktail tasting night, and Sandoval showed up at Schwartz and Katie’s for the shallow dive. Katie didn’t want to sample cocktails, since she wasn’t feeling well, and in Sandoval’s interview, he said Katie had literally been begging to be a part of the bar. She got a seat at the table, and now didn’t want to play. Schwartz said the goal was interesting flavor combinations. Somehow, the bar name thing came up again, and Katie said she liked the idea of naming it Once Upon a Tom, but Sandoval said everyone liked Schwartz and Sandy’s, ignoring the opinion of pretty much everyone except himself. Katie said Sandoval was the only one who liked it, and Schwartz said he liked it now. Sandoval basically said he was the idea man, and Schwartz couldn’t have even proposed without him. Katie said Sandoval had great ideas, but didn’t take criticism well. Sandoval said she could be on the Schwartz and Sandy’s train or get off. Katie told them, good luck with their bar.

Ariana and Sandoval were having a Mad Max party for Brock’s birthday, but Scheana didn’t understand Mad Max. In Brock’s interview, he explained, if you planned it too well, that wasn’t okay. It was whatever you found on the street. It was difficult to explain. He felt it was a vibe. Scheana said she was over theme parties. Nothing fit, and she wanted to feel like her again. Brock modeled a pair of underwear (budgies) that he had made with her face on them. Seriously, I’m not making this stuff up.

Schwartz told Katie that he didn’t like how things ended, and thought she’d instigated it. He loved that she had his back, but it was all good. She said he didn’t have her back, and in her interview, she said, the whole thing is bullsh*t. Schwartz felt it was counterproductive, and said he knew they’d talked about opening a sandwich shop. He promised they’d do something in the future, but thought it best that Katie and Sandoval didn’t work together. She said it was his loss.

James met with family friend Peter, and in his interview, James said that Peter and his dad were friends back in the day. They laid down tracks together, but also partied, and Peter was 20 years sober. James said, Peter was someone he considered important to his sobriety. He told Peter that he’d been struggling with getting frustrated. He’d lost patience with Raquel when she played a drinking game. Peter said, as addicts, there was never a still moment. When you quit something, it came out in other ways. He’d tried to quit drinking ten times without AA, and relapsed. James said he still smoked weed, and Peter asked if James felt powerless over weed. It muted the scream inside, but didn’t make it go away. He suggested James try a temporary period of full sobriety, and James agreed, but literally cried, saying he’d been smoking as long as he could remember. Peter said, sobriety is the best weed ever, and James said he was glad to be able to see it was possible.

Katie visited Lala, while the Toms set up for the alcohol-included cocktail tasting at Sandoval and Ariana’s. Schwartz said Katie wasn’t coming; she was really upset. Lala told Katie that she went to bat for Schwartz more than he did her. If Randal did that, she’d be having a come to Jesus moment with him. Schwarz said Katie might have resentment because they’d talked about opening a place. In Ariana’s interview, she said, if she was supposed to be doing something with Sandoval, and he decided to do something with Schwartz instead, she’d be pissed too. Katie told Lala that she was done, and didn’t even want to hear about the bar. Scheana, Brock, and Raquel joined the tasting, while James played VR games at home. In his interview, Brock demonstrated drinking beer out of his shoe, and I felt sick. Lala did an imitation of Sandoval, saying, it took six months to create this cocktail. The lavender was imported from Thailand, brown sugar was added, and butter melted in, then it was injected with tequila. It took a long time. Scheana told the tasting group about Katie and Lala trash talking Sandoval after Pilates. Sandoval said it was what they did, and Schwartz said Sandoval was making a sweeping generalization. Sorta, kinda having Katie’s back. In Schwartz’s interview, he wondered why Scheana didn’t speak up in the moment, instead of waiting to tell the rest of them later. It was weak. He knew this because it’s what he did most of the time.

LVP had opened other side of the garden at SUR, creating a vibrant and eclectic atmosphere. She and Ken stopped by, and Charli waited on them. James brought Raquel flowers while she was on her break, then talked to Lisa and Ken. Puffy! James said he was working on not calling the people he loved names anymore, and told them about his visit with Peter. He explained that he still had a heavy weed habit, and started the day with a wake and bake. Lisa said she thought weed was innocuous, but not if you needed to have it. Agreed. James said he was going to do an experiment, and stop using everything, including cigarettes. Lisa said he might have an epiphany.

At the Mad Max party, Brock had budgies made for all the guys, with their SO’s faces on them, like the pair he had with Scheana’s. Someone got a striped one, so I guess he was single. Katie and Lala confronted Scheana about tattling their Pilates conversation to the others. Scheana said Sandoval was one of her closest friends, and Katie told her that she should have said something at the time. In Katie’s interview, she said, she wanted to feel she could trust Scheana, but if Scheana cared about their friendship, she wouldn’t have thrown Katie under the bus. Charli asked one of Brock’s friends his name, which prompted him to get too friendly with her. Charli handled it well, but was doubly pissed off, since Scheana just stood there and laughed. In Charli’s interview, she said, one, who are you? and two, you never grab or get aggressive with a woman like that.

Lala cornered Schwartz, and asked why he wasn’t defending Katie. He asked if it was wrong to be objective with someone you loved, and she said if Randal disagreed, he let her know behind closed doors. Schwartz stutteringly agreed. In Lala’s interview, she said she had been good friends with Katie for a minute now, but that Katie couldn’t be vulnerable with her partner because she felt she had to be in defense mode, was heartbreaking to her. She told Schwartz that she couldn’t hear him with Sandoval’s d*ck in his mouth.

Next time, an ice bucket dip; the girls become obsessed with the foot rating website, and Ariana says, it’s the dumbest most amazing thing they’ve ever done; and Schwartz has to get a tattoo because he lost a bet.

✂️ Cutting Out Early…

Tomorrow will bring soap for sure, but the RHOC begins a new season as well. I’m always iffy about that one, so it will probably be just highlights. Whatever Wives you prefer, even if none at all, stay safe, stay up-to-date on what’s happening, and stay appreciating the family you have, whether it’s the one you were born into, or the one you’ve chosen.
