We got the Coming up this season onRHOC trailer.
Very good, but this usually happens at the seasons halfway point.
Does that mean were only getting 14 episodes this year?
Was there a break for COVID?
(Thats what it looked like was going on in the trailer.)
I have no idea, but Im not yet ready for this season to end because Im enjoying it.
When she gets to the store, she says, Hmm, maybe a bikini.
There is no one on the face of the Earth who looks better in a one-piece than her.
It is her signature.
Do not give it up!
But then she tries on a one-piece, and Nicole says, I love the one-piece.
Of course you do, because Emily looks fucking great in them year in and year out.
Just like Lisa Rinna has iconic hair, Emily Simpson has an iconic bathing-suit choice.
NO wonder the Champagne bottles were popping spontaneously.
Its cause Emily was getting them all shaken and stirred.
Its weird that Noella is telling all the women how lonely she is without them.
Doesnt she have real friends?
After seeing how she behaved the rest of the episode, the answer is no.
It is a bargain as fair as a $5 foot-long.
There is another topic of conversation that I take offense with, though.
Heather says that Noella brought her daughter Max a gift for the launch of her book.
It is an LGBTQ+-themed card game because theyre both bisexual or something.
Heather says these are pornographic.
But we dont have any context for what the card game is and how these cards are being used.
Is it likeCards Against Humanityand these are the answers to prompts and are supposed to be funny?
Are these things that people should do to each other?
Are these like a guide to better sex?
Heather is clearly using pornography to make a bad faith argument.
Are they inappropriate for a 17-year-old?
Did Noella know the game was so lewd when she gifted it to her?
But also, 17-year-olds are sexual creatures.
I know this because I watch an HBO documentary series calledEuphoria.
I have a 17-year-old nephew.
I have to be an idiot to think hes not yanking his crank behind closed doors.
Thats what I love about Dr. Jen.
Then Noella shows up.
Of course, shes late.
Of course, she forgot her passport.
Of course, she is pissed no one is there to greet her.
Of course, of course, of course.
Its not like your last name is Rothschild.
You have flown commercial for way longer than you flew private.
You remember what it is like.
Youre just trying to come off way cooler than you.
This is what is going on at the dinner.
Just look at the stink she makes about her warm tequila.
She tells the server, Can I get it in a glass like this?
All of that is unnecessary.
That guy is going to bring you a glass of ice.
Of course, she has to make it athing.
And here is what I love about Noella.
She sees what is happening.
But that doesnt mean that Heather is wrong about her.
Thats the thing about her that I would find exasperating.
Just like Heather, I would hate how much work she makes everything.
How nothing is easy with her.
