Last time on The Real Housewives of Orange County, Tamra, Eddie, Vicki, and this Brooks character all got schwasted on a boat. And, as has been known to happen under the influence of tequila shots, they acted stupid and got into a fight. Tamra and Eddie exited the boat and sat on a bench before joining Vicki and Brooks (Vooks? Bricki?) for some dinner.Tamra admitted that it was a stupid ploy for attention, and Eddie slurred that there was nothing between him and Vicki, and affirmed that Tamra did, in fact, put "another mans hand on your boob." This is the first time that Im like, not cool, Eddie. You are not right in this instance, buddy.

So weve been led to believe that this episode will be about the growing tension as Tamra and Gretchen become friends, but lets be serious. It is all about Slade and his impending terrible comedy routine! Ive been talking about it all week. But first, some business. Vicki didnt say goodbye to Tamra on her way out of the painting party and the world is over.Vicki is thrilled, supposedly, that Tamra and Gretchen are friends, but she is obviously pissed off. Vicki is SKEPTICAL. Tamra bought Vicki some freaky sex stuff and she is not having THAT, either. Its not for people who really care about each other.

On last nights episode of Real Housewives of Orange County, Slade Smiley, boyfriend of star Gretchen Rossi, tried his hand at comedy with a stand-up routine at the Improv Theater. Now, we use the term "comedy" loosely because it was more like a cringe-worthy set that included air-thrusting.
Read more »
Last time, in the most anticipated episode for me, personally, Slade did a terrible stand-up routine. It was based largely on the assumptions that everyone in the audience 1) knew all about The Real Housewives of Orange County, and 2) cared. Gretchen told him to re-think some of the jabs at her friends, but he didnt. And for what? What did he stand to gain? This is not a career for him, and yet he jeopardized his relationship with the woman who is supporting him. But hey, Alexis thought it was funny."For me, for the first time, I felt like this is what Im supposed to do," Slade tells Gretchen about stand-up comedy. That might be the douchiest thing he has ever said? I dont know, I havent been keeping track. Are we witnessing the beginning of the end?

Last time we left the Real Housewives of Orange County, they were hanging out at Tamras 80s Bunco night and the guys crashed the party in full 1980s regalia. Was it a bad decision to invite Slade after he slandered half of them in the name of "comedy"? Probably. But Vicki looks absolutely livid. The night was already going poorly because whoevers gay friend was starting fires in that room!His name is Ricky, apparently, and Slade asks him, "you didnt like that Ricky? You didnt like iiiiit?" in a patronizing tone. "Its comedy," Slade states like a total dickbag, "if you dont like it, dont go to the show!" As though the entire night was about him! What about someone who hated Slades terrible set but liked some of the other stuff? Whatever, the sh*t hasnt even hit the fan yet.

Big changes (or rather, small changes) are coming to The Real Housewives of Orange County this week. For starters. Tamra is getting her implants removed. She doesnt need big boobs for her power anymore. Alexis is getting her nose fixed in more ways than one. Its not just to have the bump taken out, GAWD.Oh my god, watching it is absolutely stomach-turning, though. Did you see how easy it was for them to break her nose? Oh god. In a third hospital, Vicki meets her son to tell him about Briannas condition. They removed a lot of tumors and nodules from her thyroid and it doesnt look good.

Heather has taken Terry to a high-end clothier to get a "wardrobe makeover." Hes getting a bunch of suits, and it will cost about $50,000. He could have gone to Mens Wearhouse and gotten a real good deal. You can basically buy one suit and get another one free there. They should have gone to Mens Wearhouse.Tamra is "getting back into fitness" and planning to lose weight in the chest area. She loves working out so she wants to open up a fitness studio. Sure, why not.

Proving that last weeks episode was entirely inconsequential, none of the "previously on" clips were from the most recent episode leading into this one. Well, I guess there was a mud run Starting out, Heather and Tamra meet for wine to remind us there was a mud run, and to announce Heathers "Bowling and Champs" party. Champs with a soft "ch," as in champagne. Tamra cant go because shell be recovering from her breast reduction, and Heather is worried about having to referee Gretchen and Vicki. Tamra also mentions that she doesnt trust Brooks. Theres something off about him, hes just too ... nice. Speaking of Brooks, Vicki is meeting with him for lunch. Its a short lunch, and a relatively rude one. But Brooks got Vicki another card! He loves getting her those cards. I suppose thats OK. But I dont trust it, right Tamra? Continuing the romance, they talk real estate. I sense that something bad is on the way, though, as Vicki says "hes given me no reason not to trust him."

"Shes dumb," Tamra tells Vicki. Yeah, but thats OK. Alexis and Shannon, her hair and makeup person/friend, put together smore bags. Because the girls cant get their own marshmallows? Whatever, it was an excuse to talk about Alexiss upcoming "glamping" trip (glamorous camping) and Shannon having to make sure Alexis doesnt start bleeding out the nose. In addition to Alexis and her friendsistant, Vicki, Brianna, and Heather are going.

Ooh, look at Alexiss statement nail. Gretchen lets it slip that she was the first choice for the Fox 5 gig. That is rude, Gretchen, especially when youre all "oh Im so glad one of us was able to do this," about it.Alexis has Gretchen watch her segment on "Sex, Pop Culture, and Children." Why would you show that off as an example? It was terrible! Then Gretchen gave some constructive criticism, and it turns out Alexis just wanted her to be happy for her no matter what.

Well hello, ladies, gays, empty air, distracted husbands and whoever else watches Real Housewives of Orange County these days! Carlas on vacation this week, so Im filling in with my personal take on tonights episode. Dont worry, Ive been recapping The Bachelor and Americas Next Top Model for literally years, so Ive got lots of experience documenting the misadventures of vain, oblivious, Barbie-shaped narcissism-machines in their undying quests for immortality, the finer things and hollow validation.The thing is: Ive never SEEN the Real Housewives of Orange County. I know. I know. Ive read scattered RHOC news and seen those commercials where the old one opens her mouth real wide and is like "Whaaaaat?" (every commercial), but thats really it. Beverly Hills and New Jersey are more my jam; so sue me! (Or threaten to do so via email, Russell Armstrong style.) So this is going to be an experiment of sorts. At seven seasons (thats 49 seasons in reality show years), RHOC is the eldest Housewives collection in Andy Cohens underwater garden of souls. What does the show look like to an absolute newcomer? Is the drama even remotely relatable or accessible if you dont know these women and their long, cyclical lists of betrayals, beefs, treaties and takesies-backsies? Will I even be able to tell all the blonde ones apart? Lets FIND OUT!

Plastic surgeons and bra makers live in two different worlds. Vicki is choosing not to even talk about Briannas secret wedding that was revealed last week. So there you have it, when you are uncomfortable with something, just ignore it and maybe it will go away.Vicki is personally offended that Brianna robbed her of the experience of planning a wedding. Its always all about her. She has cried about it four nights in a row. But Vicki has decided to suck it up and "realize that its not about me." Good luck, Vick.

Alexis is having an event, so for that you evidently need an Event Stylist. Oh yeah, youre gonna want to move the Princess Room into the Adult Room. Her daughters are having a birthday party, and the theme is "Puppy Princess Party." Princesses who are puppies! Puppies who are princesses! And everything in between. Alexis leaves her Event Stylist for a moment to get spray tanned. The event staff moves the furniture all over the place as Alexis stands in her spray tent. Slade invited Heather to help pick out Gretchens engagement ring. She doesnt have a problem with Slade, and shes a nice, neutral classy lady. Gretchen wants a yellow diamond, like J. Lo. So the jeweler brings out a ring that costs $250,000. Slade says no, so the guy brings out a ring for $100,000. Ah, I see, and do you have layaway? Or do you do cubic zirconia? Slade makes a joke about burglaries, and the jeweler doesnt find it funny.

Welcome back to the exciting world of Insurance. Vicki is faxing, making copies, doin all that OFFICE stuff when Brooks stops by to be creepy with a cup of coffee. "You had a tough night, didnt you?" Brooks says blandly. Vicki blames her fight with Brianna on anything but Brooks. Theres probably more to it, right?Vicki insists that sticks and stones may break her bones AND words hurt her! Something is wrong with her face. I dont know if it was a lift or a tuck gone wrong somewhere along the line, but there are lines that do not occur in nature on her face, and it sort of looks like when Heidi Montag got upset on The Hills but a little baggier.

Tamra meets with Heather and Terry for lunch to rehash her lunch with Alexis. She just doesnt like fake people, OK? Then she proudly tells Terry about what she told Alexis he said. "Comically, very funny line," Heather admits, "but realistically ..." Ay yi yi, Tamra needs to learn not to do that. Everybody is getting ready for this Costa Rica trip. Alexis is only going for two days, but packing for eight. Heather hopes everyone will be on their best behavior. Slade has looked up a list of what to pack online, but Gretchen doesnt have any of that stuff, like "quick-dry pants." Theyre on edge--Gretchen keeps saying "I dont have any of that," but Slade keeps reading from this list. Therapy might have made things worse.

They all tell each other to look in the mirror. Heather and Tamra demand that they hug, but Alexis excuses herself to be alone and ugly-cry. The women sit back down to dinner and congratulate themselves on being honest.Gretchen goes to comfort Alexis, but she sort of backed Tamra up in the bus that ran over Alexis, so its too little too late. Gretchen returns with the salad course, unsuccessful. Gretchen cries because her friend is hurting, but Heather and Tamra convince her "you are HELPING her." Vicki goes to Alexis, armed with lobster. Alexis welcomes Vicki, and Gretchen feels even worse.

The ladies are back from Costa Rica, and Vicki is all set to complain about her normal life again.

Shes getting him some new teef.Vicki asks for new teeth, whitening, lip adjustments, and gum arching. Nothing says "I love you" like a set of nicely arched gums. Eddie knows to get his gums arched, and it shows as he meets Tamra for dinner. She tells him about all the drama in Costa Rica. Eddie booked a trip for them to Tahiti, just the two of them, so that she could relax instead of listen to Vickis manic spurts. Tamra is excited, but nervous that Eddie will propose.

Remember when Drunk Sarah buh-roke the bow off Heathers cake and ate it? I sure do. No one seems to be able to forget it. Some gay voice of reason with his back to the camera tried to tell Sara "you have to let them cut the cake before you can eat the bow," but no one listened to HIM. All grumpy about all the serious conversations she was forced to have at a party, Tamra follows Gretchen into a side room to receive a present.Gretchen got Tamra a bracelet, just as Tamra got one for Gretchen with a key to lock up the past on it. Tamras bracelet has a lock on it because theyre friends now, a purse because they always dress the same, and a heart that says "unbreakable" on it because she just really loves that movie starring Bruce Willis. No, its because Tamra is unbreakable! I want one.

The first order of business for Part 2 is to examine the crumbling friendship of Gretchen and Alexis. Things fell apart at the Bunco party, evidently, when Alexis went nuts about her nose job. The Fox 5 thing is kind of funky, and Im not sure who to believe on this. For Gretchen to say that she was offered that job was bitchy, but Im also not sure we can believe what Alexis says.Then Gretchen busted out a PRINTED OUT email from Fox 5, and Alexis brought out her email and it wasnt as crystal clear as she thought. The Vicki-Alexis couch lost that battle.
