Life is different in Orange County.
The average price house, it's very expensive.
Image is everything in my world.
The boobs, the tummy tuck,
hand bag, the G Wagon.
People are like, oh, you're rich.
It isn't just a place to live. It's a lifestyle.
Oh!
Yay!
[AI voice]: Jeanna Keough.
Hi, Jeanna.
What's up, girl?
I could not believe it's been 20 years.
Hi, Vicki Gunvalson,
just wanted to follow up with you.
Great day.
Briana, you got a piece of hair in your eyes.
Mom, that's enough.
[cheering]
My daughter went to Vegas, and um...
she got married!
What?
Today I have a new ring for you.
Oh my goodness!
God hates divorce. How did I get here again?
So beautiful, Briana.
I'm a grandmother. Woo-hoo!
The OG of the OC is back!
When do you ever bring a family van to pick up six people?
I'm very upset!
I'm asking God for strength to get me through this.
That girl broke the bow off my cake.
- I'm so upset! - Really?
And that's my opinion!
Yeah, well, your opinion sucks.
Matt... we had an affair.
- I got married right there! - You did?
How did you know he was the one?
I still don't know.
Tamra, breathe slower,
breathe slower!
[heavy breathing and sobbing]
It's alright. Take a breath.
The last thing I wanna do is fight this time in my life.
- No! - Don't tell me what to do.
She doesn't know what she is! She's a liar.
You need to explain the reason--
No, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't!
I don't even know what you're so pissed off about!
Why do you have a ring and hold it over your head?
I didn't hold it over my head, I've never seen it!
Well, leave your phone on.
If I get myself in a pickle, I'll call you
to get me out of it.
Pray for me. Lord knows I'm gonna need the luck.
[upbeat music]
Hola, amiga.
This sand, how do you walk on it?
- You take your shoes off. - It's like rocks!
- Hello! Miss Crabby. - Hi.
Here's your pesos back, I went to the banco.
You went to a banco?
I went to the banco.
Oh, you went to the bank
- next door at La Isla? - Yeah.
So when do you wanna move down here with me?
It's a nice life.
I'm mean, it's a flippin' vacation, Vicki.
All day long, every day. Zero stress.
You woke up choking, burst into my room, woke me up.
Broke a coffee cup and didn't care.
I see a different Vicki here.
Like, you are lighter. You are lighter here.
It feels so good to be back.
This is definitely a woo-hoo moment.
I'm different from the last time that I was a housewife.
Really, [bleep] off!
I feel like I have more peace.
Buying the house in Mexico
was probably the best thing I've ever done.
All those poor people are leaving!
Their plane's leaving Mexico. Bye, losers! Bye!
- Wait! - So sorry!
Mike, my boyfriend, and I,
we live primarily in Coto de Caza,
and then we go between La Quinta,
and my favorite place is Puerto Vallarta.
So, I've gotta get my Spanish up.
I can't roll my tongue.
They all roll their tongue. I'm like, how do you do that?
Yeah, you wanna join me?
I have two dogs, can I bring 'em?
No, you may not bring the dogs.
I wouldn't have two dogs in my house.
Well, a dog psychic said Archie needed a brother,
so I really don't know what else to say.
Okay, do you just do everything the psychic says?
You don't need two big hairy dogs
that eat your passport, that's weird.
Well, I got a new passport, so... It's good.
Troy has chewed basically everything.
Even my glass Baccarat butterflies.
He's a handful! But it's probably good for me.
Now that all of the girls have been out of the house
for quite some time, there are periods where I do get lonely.
I go out to dinner by myself.
Most of the time with the dogs.
Look at these people. Hola!
- Hi! - Can you do our feet?
- Yes! - Yay!
- You ready? - Yeah, please.
- So do you do this every day? - Every day. Try to.
- What? - Yeah.
Oh my gosh, sorry, wait, I have sand, is that alright?
No problem! No problem.
Oh, are you kidding me?
[Vicki laughs]
- Oh. - This is beautiful, Vicki.
Thank you. I worked hard for it.
Mike and I sometimes have a little bit of conflict,
'cause he said, "work is your identity!"
It's all I've really known since I was 18.
I'm still working 10 to 12 hours a day,
but I can't run at this pace forever.
So I don't know what my future holds.
I'm getting a cramp in my leg.
I think I'm dehydrated.
- Muchos gracias. - Okay, enough?
We'll pay you in a little bit, okay?
- Okay, thank you. - Gracias.
Let's go back up to the house, have a cocktail, and get ready.
Alright. My relationship with Vicki is good!
The dos amigas is way better than the tres amigas.
Get to woof it up at Andale's!
Sometimes when we're busy, we don't see each other as much,
but whenever we are together,
it's just like no time has passed.
Ouchy, my feet are burning. Hang on.
I said the sand is hot, and you go, no it isn't.
- It wasn't, earlier. - Well, it is.
[gasp]
Stop it, Vicki.
Are you kidding me right now?
What did you do?
We need a medic! [laughs]
[upbeat music]
- Hello? - Hello!
- Hi, welcome! - Hi. How are you?
- We're good! - Your first visit here!
Hi, Heather Dubrow, it's so nice to see you.
- I'm Phil. - Hi, Phil.
My wife, Star. Rita.
You've got a couple of other people coming?
Yes, I have two friends coming.
And we're going to be dyeing scarves.
You are.
Six-foot-long, 100% silk.
Would we do anything else?
- Hi. - So make yourself at home.
Okay, great.
Hi!
Oh my god, congratulations on...
'Cause I like forget. I forget.
- Oh. My... - Oh!
[giggles] I just got engaged.
I'm in my engagement era! Woo!
Gina's ring live and in person, it's gorgeous.
Do I think it's a natural diamond or a lab diamond?
I mean, it looked a little rainbow-y to me.
Travis worked with a jeweler to design a prototype,
'cause there was a possibility that I might not like the ring.
Which means this ring is fake as [bleep].
Did I invite you to my party yet?
You did not.
- Hearts and heels. - Okay, cute!
- Right? - Yeah, for Valentine's!
Yes! Because, you know, I feel like we just need something fun
and love and friendship...
- Okay, love it, yes. - ...and things and games.
- Hello! - Hello.
- Welcome. How are you doing? - I'm Tamra.
Welcome to the Mayu Silk Art studio.
If you wanna come and gather around here.
You can come over here to pick your colors.
Everybody's an artistic rockstar.
This is a cute idea,
but I'm not exactly artistic.
I can't draw, paint, sing, dance.
I got all this right here and none of it works.
Tip it and let the drips come out.
Mine look like nipples!
There you go. Like that.
It reminds me of pictures of wind.
I am the wind, actually.
I went to Bali, and it turns out I'm the wind.
The only thing I can think of is that Heather saw
this scarf-making on TikTok,
because this girl is obsessed with TikTok.
- Check it out. - Oh, bravo, look at that!
I see things on TikTok, and I'm like,
that is so cute, we should do that!
Of course she did.
Alright, so, ladies, we're gonna put these in a Ziplock bag.
And then Heather brought some goodies for you,
so you can head on over there.
Thank you! Thank you, guys.
Well, that was fun.
Thought we could have a little crafty date.
I also feel like I haven't seen you guys in forever.
It's been a while. But here we are.
Are you here today to burn it down?
You've got a sharp tongue. Sometimes you say mean things--
Well, I'll tell you right now,
after how they treated me last year,
I'm gonna ----ing blow things up.
I'm like, oh my god, you guys are not my friends!
No!
- Well, first, let's toast. - That was a joke.
- Was that a joke? - Yes!
Cheers! Cheers to not burning it down.
Oh god.
I wanna talk to you because I feel like
when I see you say things like, no one was there for you,
I feel bad because, I don't want that
to be your interpretation of last year.
- Do you feel that way? - Yeah.
- You don't talk to bloggers? - I didn't do this!
This is the problem, we don't know!
When everybody leaves me crying in my chair
and takes a group picture, and leaves me?
How would you feel?
I don't know who is standing where in the picture
'cause I am honestly worried about myself in that moment.
I was sitting on the couch, crying my eyes out,
and you guys went to dinner with Gretchen.
I invited you to dinner!
- No... - Yes, I did!
- Gina asked me. - No.
Gina goes, are you going to dinner.
I go, I don't know anything about it!
I invited you to dinner.
Let's not be mistaken, I know exactly who Heather is.
This last year's been really difficult with our friendship.
Her actions weren't the same as her words.
I've never been an exclusive person ever.
But then you go on that radio show
and you put me in a bucket as all of that...
Well, I'm taking you out of the bucket.
There, you're out of the bucket. You're gone.
- You weren't in the bucket. - I wanna be outta the bucket.
Okay, you're outta the bucket, too.
Do you wanna be a cauliflower or a broccoli or whatever?
Let's not lump everyone in.
I'm sorry you felt hurt at the reunion.
- Thank you! - I am sorry that you felt hurt.
- That means a lot to me. - And I don't wanna move forward
this year with you feeling that way.
That means a lot to me.
Gina, in my eyes, can really do no wrong,
because I like her core personality.
You know, Gina's gone through sh--.
And she's like, I get it. We're a lot alike.
I wanna know what happened at the girls' trip.
It was bad.
This all happened, as things do, at The Quiet Woman.
Not-so-Quiet Woman.
We are filming for Ultimate Girls' Trip.
There was a sit-down dinner, and there was like,
all these conversations going at once.
Tamra was trying to stir the pot,
and I started to be questioned about my inability to move on.
Shannon pissed me off by something she said.
And I said, I don't have anything to say.
And I think I said that you're a mess.
You can't get a man, and you don't even own a house.
And I lost it.
And I said, no, you're the drunk.
And then it ended there.
That's sweet.
It was very embarrassing.
Even that night, some of the wives
were saying how horrified they were
by what when on there.
They'd never seen anything like that.
There was a lot... Really?
There was a lot of talk.
Oh. Well. Sorry.
I don't understand why we had to go there.
I don't know. It's done. It's over.
It's between me and Shannon. It's gone.
I know but, honestly? It kind of affects all of us.
Me and Shannon are a problem!
Looking back, I have regrets for what happened
at The Quiet Woman. I was just
up to here with all the things that she had done
to me and said about me,
and the videos that she's putting out there.
I don't hold a grudge, Tamra Grudge.
I filmed with you, I laughed with you.
I even went on a ----ing trip
where you packed book called How Not To Be a Miserable Cow.
I'm trying to get away from that, I'm trying to grow up.
Trying to be a big girl.
Now we're at a point where it's like, okay,
understand that you're probably never going to get the apology
that you're looking for and move the [bleep] on.
That's what I was trying to say.
My whole thing is, is that I do wanna make things good.
Good.
Am I making excuses for calling her an alcoholic
and all those things? No.
That was just me being pissed off.
And I wouldn't do it again.
Tamra feels lighter to me. She feels a bit different.
And she seems to be receiving everything,
so I'm trusting that.
I do love Tamra and I care about her,
and I would love it if she could just learn
which personalities to keep the [bleep] in.
Like, what are you guys gonna do about her party?
Yeah. How are you going to handle that?
I don't know yet.
Coming up.
Greyson got pulled over,
and I said, how fast did they pull you over for?
[gasps]
Do you have an extra-padded bra on?
Are they too high?
[car horn]
Now I'm all conscious of my breasts.
I think less is more, and I...
I think less is more too, but...
Will you hold my hand, please?
You say they look too high!
Hold my hand for a second, I'm gonna get over the curb.
I have been struggling the last three months
with this knee injury, and I've hired a personal trainer
'cause I wanna be skinnier and cuter and more fit,
and they put too much weight on my leg press,
and right away, I knew, my knee popped.
Instead of crutch, I just take peoples' shoulders.
Till I get my kneecap-cap dissected.
So you're gonna decapitate it?
And, well, it's probably not wise to lean
on an unstable Shannon, but she's doing pretty good.
- Is this it? - Uh-huh.
We're here.
Woo-hoo!
Hi, babe!
We're waiting for you.
Hi, Vicki!
Woo-hoo!
Oh, wow, she did a shot.
There it is!
I'm kind of a big deal at Andale's.
People go there looking for me, even when I'm not in town.
I tried to buy into the business,
and the owner was like, no, we're doing good without you.
By the way, I put you on the map.
[loud crowd chatter]
How are you, babe?
How are you? I haven't seen you all day. I hope you're good!
[laughing] Sorry!
You guys are so great together.
He can do his thing, I can do my thing,
we know we're gonna be
home tonight.
Yeah. It's all good.
The support and the respect and the love...
Four years into our relationship,
Mike fills my emotional love tank.
Like, I know when I'm with him, I feel empowered.
I feel good. He accepts me. I'm a lot to accept.
I'm like, sincerely, at 60-almost-4 years old,
I'm finally, thank you, Jesus, I'm really...
You're in such a great place.
...good place in my life.
I love that you're here, but I can't wait
for you to come back to Orange County.
I think you're really going to enjoy Gina and Emily,
and the kindness of Jenn Pedranti.
[upbeat music]
Hi!
- Hi! Hi, welcome to Palmilla. - It's beautiful!
- Thank you. - I haven't been here.
You enjoy. Your server will be right with you, okay?
Thank you.
- Hi. I'm meeting a friend. - Yes.
Jenn. Okay, thank you. Oh! - Hi!
- Hi. - You look beautiful.
- So do you. - How are you?
Warm.
Should I sit all the way over here?
I'm starving, and everything smells amazing.
I feel like you're so far away!
I know, it's like... hello! Hello, nice to see you.
I absolutely adore Emily.
And I would've never envisioned us being close.
If you wanna walk around with a Rolex on,
----ing sell it, and pay back some of your bills!
We just have figured out, like, I kind of enjoy you,
and you're kind of funny, and you're kind of an asshole,
and you don't know sh--, and you know everything,
and it just kind of works!
Hi ladies...
- Hi. - Hi!
I'm gonna do just a regular margarita with tajin.
Can I just get a bowl of chicken?
We can do that.
Is this what's happening with you now?
Is this how you look like you look?
I need a margarita, though.
When I was dealing with everything
that was going on with Luke, I wasn't taking care of myself.
And I can't be the best mom and wife that I need to be
when I'm not feeling good and healthy.
So, I lost a lot of weight.
I've been in the gym like seven days a week
because I use the gym as therapy.
If a bowl of chicken makes you look like this,
- it's worth it. - I don't know.
Boys are doing good?
Keller's great. Luke, we still deal with a lot with Luke.
So he's on medication right now.
But it's hard to get him to take the medication
'cause he has an eating disorder.
We did try a laser treatment on Luke's brain.
It's supposed to reduce the swelling.
I don't think it was all that helpful.
But the thing that I noticed
that changed his behavior the most
was putting him into a different school,
because that was a big stressor with him
not being able to function within a classroom.
I remember thinking like, when the kids were little,
how difficult it was, 'cause it's like, they're crying,
and that was easy!
Story of my life.
Greyson got pulled over the other day.
And I said, wait, wait, Grey,
how fast did they pull you over for? 105.
[gasps]
I lost my mind, like, inappropriately.
I was cussing, I was like, what the [bleep] are you doing?
'Cause you're scared.
It's so out of character for Greyson.
It like shook me on so many levels
that it makes me wonder is something else going on?
'Cause it's just not who he is.
When it comes down to it,
when I have trouble with a child and I need advice,
like, Heather's really a go-to for me.
She really is.
That's awesome. Have you talked to anybody else?
- Shannon! - She's super pissed right now.
I mean, actually, her words were,
I can't even look at Tamra.
How does it feel to be back here?
I mean, that's the bar we danced on.
I'm not gonna lie, the tres amigas trip was off the chain.
Do you think we could get it back?
I don't know. I wanna get to a place of no arguing,
I don't want it! But yet she seems to not want to stop.
The last I heard, she likes who she is
and she doesn't need therapy. Anymore.
Why does she like sushi?
She likes who she is.
I'm an empath, so I see the sides of both.
But when Tamra texts me and is like, I wanna see you again,
I can't wait to hang out...
My question is, do you believe her?
'Cause she's kinda phony.
Tamra and I stopped talking for about a year and a half,
and it wasn't something she did to me.
Tamra, you gave birth to a daughter,
you have ----ed up, go apologize,
and make it better and move on.
Vicki, go away. Leave me alone.
This woman is, uh, disgusting
in every sense of the word.
And then I had sepsis that went to my brain,
and I look at life differently, so I said, listen,
we're both aging.
I love you, and I just want to have this agreement
that we don't hurt each other.
I'm not getting in those weeds of sh--.
You haven't talked to Tamra at all?
No, I haven't spoken to her since BravoCon.
I saw her, I said hi to her, and she was pissed at me,
like, pissed.
And I'm thinking,
- why are you pissed at me? - Right.
'Cause the last time I saw you was at the reunion,
and you sh-- all over my podcast.
She got a podcast in my network.
I'm not on your network anymore! I'm at WeHeart.
We had to put you back on
because when you got off, it tanked.
I was talking to Heather about the Tamra thing.
Because I told Heather, I can't tell you how much I love,
like our forward move-movement with our friendship.
She reaches out, she's been trying to connect.
She invited us up for dinner.
But the one thing that just is a hang-up for me.
Do you just not have a boundary?
With Tamra, I was concerned when I heard her on that radio show
saying that no one
was on her side last year.
Does she ever cross a line with you that you say, that's enough?
We have this history together, and I care about her.
That puts her in a box for me.
She does think that her, um,
friendship with Tamra is very genuine.
Do you believe that?
I don't know.
After reunion last year, we all went to dinner.
Tamra was not there,
and Heather definitely led the charge
on all the negative talk about Tamra.
And it was interesting to find out that the very next day,
Heather called and checked on Tamra.
Is that massively two-faced? I don't like it.
At what point does Heather not say, enough?
Am I the only one that feels that way?
[dramatic music]
Coming up.
Come here, oh, no! Archie. Come on, you're the good one.
No, not you. You stay!
Look at me, oh! Okay, that's good enough.
[upbeat music]
I would just go through...
- Cupboards? - Get what I need.
'Cause we have so much stuff.
Show me what you're taking.
Yes. Don't be taking all my sh--.
No promises.
Is there anything, like... do you use an iron?
An iron? Like, for my hair?
- No, for your clothes. - No.
Sophia decided not to go to music school
because she did not want to move to LA,
and so she's finishing up her general ed here.
Not too far, still in Orange County,
and I told her if she wanted to go
that I would put her up in an apartment.
This is kind of a move-out gift. You wanna look through that?
Oh. Is it a taser?
I definitely think that I'm gonna have a harder time
with this change than Sophia will.
[giggling]
You think that's funny? You're gonna tase somebody.
- No. - Crazy girl!
[burp] Annabelle, please don't burp.
You have to act like a lady.
Oh my gosh. Annabelle, you need to learn how to do laundry.
- We can do it later. - Come on, let's go do a load.
You can go do a load. I got the cat!
[meow]
Okay, get your cheer pin stuff...
I am, I am, I am, I am...
Wait, I wasn't done talking, Annabelle!
Annabelle is a feral child.
She was like raised by wolves
and dropped off on our front porch,
and now, she's a teenager. She's scary!
You already have pink paint on your sweatshirt.
Oh!
You've been painting five seconds.
You're a disaster.
Grey! You gotta get Daw for me.
Sweet.
Dad messaged me and we...
- got the price on your ticket. - Mm.
Were you here when Dawson was here? Like, laughing about it?
- Yes! - Oh my gosh.
How many times has Dawson been pulled over?
Too many. Wait until your kids get older,
and everything gets harder.
I never have any control over when I even hear from Dawson,
he's in the Marines at Camp Pendleton.
Harrison is working with an engineering firm
and right outta USC, they took him to Singapore.
Evvy is becoming a woman.
I think we've had fights about how to put a tampon in 10 times.
Dominic is going through some stuff at school,
and Greyson, like, the easiest kid on earth messed up.
What do you think it cost? What do you think--
- 500. - Your ticket is $700.
Wow, okay.
We need to come up with a plan.
There's not enough In 'n Out you can work to make up this.
It's a lot of money!
Troy, heel! Oh, guys, look!
Come on. Sit down, let's take a picture!
Troy. Go this way!
Yeah, sit! Archie?
You come right, sit! You stay. Come here.
Come here. Oh, no! Archie!
Come on, you're the good one!
No, not you! Hey, come here.
Oh my god. You stay! You stay!
Archie and Troy get along.
They like to play and wrestle with each other,
but sometimes I wonder
if Troy annoys Archie.
Oh, you guys did so good! Look at me, no!
Okay, that's good enough.
Troy is quite difficult,
but three daughters with hormones...
the house of screaming women...
Oh, Troy! Sorry.
[chuckling]
...that was tough, too.
[phone ringing]
Stella? Hi! It's very late in Paris and you're still awake.
I know. You're the one that will text me
when it's like 3:00 AM your time, and I'm like, Mom!
For me, it's something called menopause.
Stella is a junior at school in Paris,
and she wants to stay after graduating.
She's really maturing and growing up,
and she wants to work in hospitality in some capacity,
which makes sense with all the travel.
I'm so happy for her.
How was Puerto Vallarta? Did you have fun with Vicki?
I did have fun with Vicki.
Can you show me the dogs, 'cause I miss them...
Oh, okay!
You should get them a pup cup!
My kids are all quite far away,
so it does make me sad,
but living in Corona Del Mar makes me happy.
- Alright, love you! - Okay, love you too.
I love that there's people all around,
I love that you can walk everywhere.
And I don't think you can put a price on that.
Oh, oh! Sorry. Oh! Damn it.
Please don't eat the sidewalk, you're gonna get infected.
[sighs]
Drinking milk right out of the carton.
That is the grossest thing...
- It's my milk, I can do that. - Can you bring it from Florida?
I thought you were leaving.
I'm stuck in Mexico, so you guys are all leaving me.
What if something happens? I'm all alone.
To get a Mexican residency,
you definitely have to be patient.
Once your temporary resident card expires,
you have to get your permanent card.
But the consulate was backed up, and it never was coming,
so I can leave unless I get that.
Why are you stressed? I'm not.
I saw you at a massage parlor.
I wasn't at a massage parlor.
I track you, and you must've just walked past it.
[laughing]
You're not getting a massage at one in the morning,
those are dirty massages. [sighs]
I love being with Billy. Really, Billy and I are super close.
My parents are gone...
I didn't get to say goodbye. I keep thinking about...
Her coming by, Mom coming by...
Family's super important to me. Nuclear family.
- You need a woman in your life! - I do?
I will definitely take care of you if nobody else will.
I look forward to that.
Billy definitely lives the bachelor lifestyle.
I sometimes worry that my son Michael's
going to follow in his footsteps, never get married,
and never have any kids.
He goes, Billy's happy, he's doing good! I'm like, oh God!
- Hey Vicki. - How are you?
- Good. - What are we going to do today?
I don't know.
How about if we sit by the pool and relax.
I just got four Zoom calls to do.
I gotta put my suit on and act like I'm at the office.
And wear your pajamas on the bottom?
I like a life partner. I love being with Mike,
he's my happy place. I'm super committed to him.
I'm scared about having my heart broken, totally am.
Because I never thought Donn and I would break up,
but now that... well, Brooks... another story.
I'm not going to stand in the way of your family.
Sorry. Sorry.
[crying]
And I don't think I can handle another breakup.
Are you leaving me on Monday?
I have to go into my jobs.
So, my friend Heather
is having a Valentine's Day party on Wednesday.
Chances are I won't be there.
We're having a party.
It's all girls, and it's Valentine-y...
Mamacita might not be there.
I'm trying to get my residency card.
Vicki might be stuck here for a month.
I'm gonna be all by myself.
Hope not long.
I'm in Mexico jail.
My goal and future plans are to be together until we die.
I gotta get on my Zooms.
Come on.
[chuckling]
Now my right leg's starting to hurt
'cause I'm putting pressure on the right leg.
Now I'm gonna need both my legs decapitated!
Coming up.
We have new friends here tonight, old friends...
Historical!
Why is she throwing that around?
She's gonna minimize it.
[upbeat music]
[thumping]
Hi. Trying to put the house back together.
Always. It's a full-time job.
I can't believe my mom's almost leaving soon.
Speaking of.
- Hi. - Hi!
Lunch came.
Oh. Alright. What did I get?
You got the hit man.
Oh, that's what I got!
Hit man.
- Hit man. - There you go.
And then you're not staying, right, Trav?
Where are you going?
To go to a listing appointment for another house.
Oh, great!
The Gated Group has been booming.
Every year that we're in business,
we double our business.
Oh, here's my handsome grandson.
I just feel like I'm really
entering a time in my life where everything is good.
And I was like, sh--, I didn't even know that was a thing!
Are you excited for your mom and Travis to be engaged?
- Yeah. - Yeah?
- I knew for a while. - You did?
I can't believe these children knew for as long as they knew
and that nobody spilled the beans!
We took the kids to Big Bear on a pretty last-minute ski trip.
I had eaten my way through the holidays,
so my pants were extra tight, I had two broken nails...
Of course this is the time
this mother----er decides to propose to me.
Oh my god!
[laughing]
- Alright, bye, I love you. - Bye, I love you.
Mwah. Good luck.
We have so much going on as a family
that I did not know if we would ever get engaged, honestly.
Travis does have full custody of his children right now,
but they're still actively in court.
You know, you kind of just gotta say, alright, well,
do I want it to continue to hold up my life?
No, I don't.
What do you think?
Do you think you're gonna change your name now?
You know what?
That's actually kind of like a thing
between Travis and I.
When Matt and I split up,
I intentionally kept Kirschenheiter
because I wanted to have
the same last name as my children.
Travis's side of it is, it's kind of weird for him
for me to be married to him
and have another man's last name.
That's old-school thinking.
I don't think he's that old-school.
I wouldn't have thought either,
but Trav brought it up, which is weird.
Really?
And that's what I'm saying, because very little bothers him.
Yeah. I feel like if it was me, I'd stay with what you have.
Mm-hmm. Also, I don't wanna do anything
that would hurt Travis's feelings
or feel disrespectful to him,
especially just entering into a marriage together.
I was married, and then I got divorced,
and then I was on my own, and then I was with Travis,
but the one constant through all of that was my kids.
I feel badly, but I am a unit
with my biological children.
And I don't know how to not feel that way.
You could hyphenate, maybe, but that's...
Who can hyphenate a 14-letter name?
Customer service nightmare!
I will be on the phone for the rest of my life!
[laughing]
Kirschenheiter-Mullen? What?
[upbeat music]
- Hello? - Oh, darling!
Oh my god, Mom.
- Hi, sweetie. - How did do this?
I went like this.
I think you did.
The last time I was here, it really was terrifying.
Well, Wednesday, they delivered the carpet,
and I threw everything in my bedroom and the second bedroom.
Is it one of those things where it opens
and it's gonna be an avalanche?
Yes.
It was really important to me and my sister
that my mom move closer.
When my dad got sick, I had to fly to New York
and find doctors and do all the things.
So with my mom almost being 84,
we wanted her to be close by so we can help her.
How do you feel about moving here?
God created Los Angeles,
but he lives in New York.
How long did we practice that?
- Not long. - Okay, good.
But I think that's such a great line.
[laughing]
- Now that you're here... - Yeah.
...What's the plan? Are you going to join a bridge group?
Or how are you gonna meet people?
Well, the Beverly Hills Bridge Club.
I wanna see you more. I wanna see the grandkids more.
Well, they're gone.
Did my mom miss out on a lot? Well, the short answer's yes.
Max and Nicky are graduating college,
Kat is really enjoying her freshman year at Yale,
and then Ace started high school.
It's bizarre to just have Ace in the house.
It just happened. Blink of an eye.
Do you ever regret not being here? I'm just curious.
Excuse me.
If you look back and you go, maybe we should've gotten
a place near the girls so we could've been around
when the grandkids were growing up.
Living on top of you, you have your own life.
I know, but there's a lot of grandparents
that have a place near them, and they help,
and they drive 'em, and they...
Excuse me, we flew in for everything. Everything.
I know, but that's not the same thing.
Your father was working.
Dad retired when the twins were born.
No.
Yes. That's why he wasn't at Nicky's bris.
Oh god.
That is true.
You had your own life too, Heather!
And you didn't want to come to where we were, that's why we...
Well, I had four kids, Mom,
I couldn't drag four kids across the country all the time.
Most people visit their grandparents once a year.
And you could've come to the Hamptons.
Adam Sandler came.
Great.
[chuckling]
What does that mean?
It means he came with a camper
and his wife's grandma, to see his--
What are you talking about?
I'm talking about Adam Sandler coming to Westhampton Beach.
We were in Quogue, but he was in--
This is the most insane conversation.
No, it's not.
You're pointing fingers, and I'm telling you this.
You wouldn't change anything?
I don't regret anything.
If you ask my mom anything about her life,
she will tell you about where she traveled
and what she's done because that's what's important to her.
You were creating a career and you were busy!
And I respect that!
It would be nice to think that my mom,
in her older years,
would be a little more emotional or connected.
She's not self-actualized like that.
But, I don't know. I'm curious to see if maybe that changes.
Where are the rest of Dad's ashes?
- You broke him in thirds. - You had one.
But where's the third?
You lost him!
No, I didn't lose it. It's around.
- You lost Dad. - No, I didn't.
You're gonna find the third piece of him or no?
Yeah, yeah, probably.
Coming up.
Heather very much said she puts you in a box
and she can compartmentalize her friends.
[upbeat music]
It's a Heather party, so I'm sure it's gonna be
an absolute beautiful party.
Don't let anybody ruffle my feathers.
If you're in your 50s
and you haven't changed your priorities yet,
well then, that's an issue.
I'm not going to react like I normally would.
You know, I just, I don't wanna lose my sh-- anymore.
If they don't like me, I'm just gonna say, I'm so sorry.
Nope.
I'm sorry my feelings were hurt.
- Nope. - I'm ----ing sorry.
And I don't know what you want me to say!
You go, 'ey! [Bleep] off! I'm ----ing sorry.
Oh, my testosterone. I need to shoot it up.
Wait, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. This has grapeseed oil!
What is it going to do to me? Grapeseed oil?
I have no idea.
I'm telling you, if something happens to me tonight,
you need to go after those seed oil people.
[chuckles]
[upbeat music]
Oh my gosh! So good!
Here we're gonna have the perfume bar.
Like, all the bottles are gonna be labeled with your logo.
And then we're gonna have the tattoo right here.
Oh my gosh! It's got a bed!
This is the merch bar.
This is going to be the fishing for diamonds.
Oh, that's so good!
Here we're gonna have the photo moment.
Is this enough, um, depth to get the whole heart in?
It's a Heather Dubrow party, so obviously I have a lot going on.
I just think the last time we were all together got very dark,
and I just want to have a little lightness
and a little love and a little fun and a little frivolity.
Oh my god, my bouncy house!
I think the only thing to be upset about with this party
is probably the price.
[upbeat music]
- Hi, beauty queen! - I'm Jackie.
Hi, I'm Britt.
You're so skinny!
I walked downstairs with my bag
and it didn't have anything in it, and Annabelle goes,
do you want me to fill it up with stuff?
And I thought she meant like gum...
Lip gloss.
Okay, so I went to dinner with Jenn,
and then Jenn brought a new friend.
Emily, this is Carmella.
It's so nice to meet you.
You're in your 40s, right?
Yeah. Stopped at like 42.
Oh, I didn't know we could do that.
She's a real estate agent.
Oh, well, Jenn needs one
because I'm never taking that job again.
[laughing]
[upbeat music]
Okay, I love you.
You were gonna shake my hand?
I'm gonna give you to Heather Dubrow.
On the way back, I'm just taking this off.
I haven't seen the feisty side of you.
No, I mean, I'm from Cleveland, like... it's, you know...
It's in there.
Carmella and I have used the same hairdresser for years.
You know how you meet people and you just feel like
you've known them forever?
It was like that with Carmella.
She's got a little bit of an edge to her.
Oh my god, and she used to be a Playmate!
Like, we could just go on,
there's so many layers to Carmella.
When you live in the mansion, do you have a bedroom?
So I lived in the Bunny House,
which was across the street from the Playboy Mansion.
Hugh Hefner's there.
Did you enjoy him?
Everyone's thinking, like did you sleep with Hef?
I'm like, I did not!
Thank you so much, Patrick.
Last time there was a harp was at my wedding.
Sure!
Hi!
Oh hi!
- You look at home. - So do you!
- Why, thank you! - Come say hello!
Hi! How are you?
Oh my god, look how skinny you are!
Wow, holy sh--! You look so good!
Did you not recognize me?
No, I don't, I'm like, where's the rest of you?
[laughing]
I do struggle with Tamra because
I do care about her and I know that she does care about me.
I just wish she would take accountability
for what she said, but I have yet to hear that.
We didn't even talk about your engagement.
Do we have like a date, or?
No, we actually said, for the next six months,
we're not even gonna talk about it.
Like, I really just want to enjoy it, so...
The question is, will she get married before Jenn?
She still has no date or anything,
so I would put my money on Gina at this point.
I'm gonna get married.
I don't blame Jenn, take your time.
But I think Gina and Travis will marry before Jenn and Ryan.
I think Ryan would place big money on that bet.
Hello!
Oh, you look gorgeous!
Hey!
How are you?
- Hey, this is Carmella. - Hey, I'm Carmella.
Thank you so much for inviting me.
- So nice to meet you. - You look beautiful!
- So do you! - This is Gina.
- Gina! Hi, how are you? - Hi, good to see you.
- This is Carmella. - Hi, I'm Carmella.
- This is Tamra. - Say it for me again?
- Carmella. - Nice to meet you! How are you?
- You look amazing. - You're one to talk.
- How are the kids? - Good.
Everybody good in your world?
Yeah. Sophia's moving out, so... Empty nesting now.
Tell me about yourself, like, you live in Orange County?
Well, I'm in two places.
And then I have a place down south in Rancho Santa Fe?
Oh yeah, yeah. I wanna say that Shannon had...
she grew up over there.
Okay, wait, Stacy, I gotta put my dress on fast.
Can you come around and zip me?
Oh my god.
Wait! Okay, go low, go low, okay.
I'm going low. Thank you. I just don't want it to wrinkle!
Is, uh, Vicki coming?
Yeah, I don't know.
Oh well.
I guess we'll see!
We'll see!
I love Vicki, and Vicki and I always get along,
but you know what?
Recently, Vicki's been saying in the media
that we inherited all of our money.
Are you friendly with Dubrow?
I'm friendly with her.
Watching people resent someone
who's much wealthier than... it's not fun...
- No. - And it's a weird undertone.
I don't resent anything that they have built and have,
inherited, and all that...
You know, I've been able to ignore it and overlook it,
but I really wanna talk to her about it.
She should know better.
Hello!
Hi!
This is Stacy.
Shannon just arrived.
We're ready.
This is fun, this is so cute, how did you find this place?
Carmella. I want you to meet Shannon.
- Hi! - It's so cute, right?
It is!
It used to be a funeral home!
The night is young.
And...
Seeing Tamra kind of makes my blood boil a little bit.
I don't know what to do, I just don't want any fights.
I want nothing to do with her.
I don't want to talk to her. Stay away.
Hey!
[all cheering]
Thank you all for coming. I'm Nick, if you don't know me,
Heather's really good-looking son, no I'm kidding.
Oh, he's just like his dad!
[laughing]
I felt we should have a master of ceremonies.
And who better to do it than Nick Dubrow?
He's worked in hospitality, this is absolutely up his alley,
and everyone knows him.
He's so cute.
We have some really fun things planned
for you guys tonight, and I'm really excited.
Let's have some fun!
- Cheers! - Let's do it!
Killing it, Nicky Dubrow! Great work.
Come on, everybody, come on in!
Oh, it's beautiful in here, Heather!
Yay, come on in!
We could do an ice luge shot!
Oh, look! There's an HD!
Oh jeez, it's freaking phenomenal.
What is this one? Come on!
Do you just hover?
Yeah, it's like a burden.
You gotta get under there. Yeah.
Emily, what are you doing?
- It's a shot! - She's doing a shot!
Here she goes.
It's an ice luge!
Luge. Ice luge.
This party, it's giving, like,
early 2000s Playboy Mansion.
Like, the sexy vibe, and the bounce house,
and I'm looking for all the Playmates and then Ron Jeremy
popping out of the corner...
So yeah, I'm sorry I confused it and called it a lube.
My mind was like on other things.
Is this squats, is this the warmup?
I gotta warm up, hold on!
Hey!
Oh!
I feel like I touched that.
I don't know how hygienic that is.
Where is Vicki? Why isn't Vicki here?
Oi! Okay, I got like 20 stitches there.
Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow! Ow!
[screaming]
[upbeat music]
Oi! Okay, I got like 20 stitches there. Ow!
[blows raspberry]
[laughing]
Don't hurt me.
Wait, should I stick it?
- No! - Just put it in there?
Well, I have no choice, okay? Are we like--
Owie! Owie! Your hands are freezing.
It is one thing after another with me.
And now I just had a cyst removed yesterday
underneath my armpit, so I'm bleeding.
It's never a friggin' dull moment.
Owie!
There's a literal face mask in your bra.
Ow. 'Cause it's the only thing I could have,
I don't get my period anymore!
Owie, that hurt.
Okay, there. Oh, wait, oh, the sticky's actually helping.
All better.
[upbeat music]
We have like a photo station over here,
we're doing Polaroids.
Oh, Shannon Beador.
You're the blondie, so why don't you go in the middle?
No, I'm in pink, though.
Shannon, are you gonna get a tattoo?
- Wait, it's real? - It's real.
Three, two...
I'm in my fun era!
Perfect.
I'm clearly the rebel in the crowd.
You are. First one to get it.
I will be shocked if anybody else gets one.
Hi.
Hi! How are you?
How are you? Good to see you.
Bienvenido! You made it home from Mexico!
I made it out of Mexico, 'cause I got an exit pass.
I got one-time entry, that's it.
Now, I have to wait for the consulate to say,
okay, it's Vicki's turn, let's go.
She made it out of Mexico!
- Shannon! Very fancy! - Thank you.
- How are you? - Good.
- I mean, now that you're here. - I know.
Is there a microphone so I can make a toast?
-Yes, I'm grabbing it right now.
Okay, thank you.
- I'm Carmella. - Really good to meet you.
Hi, it's nice to meet you too.
When you meet Victoria, you have to bow.
There is like a respect to be paid.
You have to kiss her ring!
You used to call me Queen Victoria,
I'm like my crown is a little crooked!
Like, what? I'm not trying to bow to anybody.
And I'm definitely not kissing anybody's ring.
It's not happening.
Where do you live, Carmella?
So half in C.D.M., and half in Rancho Santa Fe.
Aren't you from the Ranch?
- Wait, what? - Yes!
Wait. So I live in Corona Del Mar,
I'm the Duchess of Corona Del Mar, I'm just kidding.
I joke that I... I joke.
Hi, everybody!
Hi!
Welcome!
What I really wanted to do
is just put together an event that just celebrated friendship.
We have been together, some of us,
a very, very long time.
We have some new friends here tonight.
We have friends... I was gonna say old friends...
Historical!
Historical friends, one might say.
[scoffs]
Why is she throwing that around?
'Cause she's trying to minimize it.
She's trying to make it natural.
- She's good. - Yeah.
Please eat, drink, be merry...
life is short, let's do the Jello shots.
Love you guys!
- Victoria? - I don't know what we're doing.
- It's a Jello shot. - Take it. Take it.
I used to make these at the river all the time.
That's how the woo-woo started.
I love when you get drunk.
I'm not drunk.
Woo-hoo!
- Cheers! - No, I'm good.
- Cheers! - No!
Put it in your mouth! Eat it!
Hi! So what are we doing here?
So, we're gonna do one of everything for you,
and I just need your shoe size.
Oh my god, that is so cute.
What are we sniffing?
Hi, oh, hi. Sniff away.
Press and sniff.
Not scratch and sniff?
Have you seen if... are Tamra and Shannon interacting?
No. And you know what?
Shannon called me earlier today,
and I think Shannon is feeling like Heather will not be honest
about how she feels about Tamra.
The dinner after the reunion,
100% of the meal was negative comments about...
About Tamra.
It's frustrating that when we're alone with Heather,
she'll say certain things,
and then when we're all together as a group,
she's like, buddy-buddy.
I question that stuff too, Shannon.
I'm not bringing this up.
As someone who really does care about Heather,
I think being a good friend
is pushing people out of their comfort zone sometimes.
And to hear Shannon say, I feel the same way,
it's like, okay... Is anybody saying anything?
If Shannon feels that way about Heather,
then she should talk to Heather about it.
What are you getting?
XX. I always sign my name, XX Heather.
I didn't like the things that I was seeing that Tamra
was discussing in the press, so I said that to Tamra.
- I don't know... - Do you know how powerful
it would be if Heather would be honest with Tamra,
so that we can mend this broken friendship.
Hi!
Hi, sugar tits!
Oh, you look like a cute little princess.
I do? So do you! I love you so much.
I love you, too!
You smell good!
Thank you.
Oh...
- Everything good? - Oh, it's great!
Good, because that's how it needs to be.
It's golden!
Am I intentionally avoiding Tamra?
Yes I am.
I don't have anything to say to her.
So I'm gonna keep walking.
- Hi, guys! - Hi!
Oh. Perfume station is amazing.
- Good! - You enjoying your party?
Yeah, I got a tattoo.
- You did? - Wait, what?
- Oh, you got the XX. - Is that a real tattoo?
No way!
Literally, Heather's tattoo is the smallest tattoo
I've ever seen.
It reminds me of when Lisa Kudrow got the tattoo
of the world on Friends.
Which is also just a dot.
I'm chatting with Jenn over here,
and Shannon is a little upset with you
because she feels like
you aren't completely honest
about your relationship with Tamra to Tamra.
No wait, when did she say that?
I talked to Shannon today.
Do you feel like I addressed things with Tamra?
I do feel that way.
I was very clear.
Yeah.
About everything. And I did that last year too!
She told her she was embarrassing.
- She was embarrassing! - She told her to her face.
I went painting with Heather and Gina, and they--
You don't know how to paint, what are you doing painting?
And then I almost called you because they were kind of
giving me a hard time because I was friends with you.
You and Vicki have called each other terrible, terrible names.
You're the worst human being on the planet... all that stuff!
We have been friends for 20 years.
She always gets a pass, because that's just Vicki.
What is the point in that? I don't go backwards.
Sometimes it is difficult because,
although you do communicate things, it's not always...
- ...received. - Received!
And there's nothing you could do about that.
And we talked about that!
Tamra and I have been friends for a long time.
I do not agree with everything that she does.
I am in very happy, unbothered era.
Yeah.
That does not mean I am turning my back on her.
And maybe I'm a good influence on her.
Does anyone ever think of that?
It's gonna be great.
So... okay.
If everyone is fine with talking behind each others' back,
then let's do that, but then let's not pretend
like we wanna be these women who are forthright and honest
and we don't have boxes
and I tell her exactly how I feel on one occasion.
Everybody's moved on! I'm not doing this.
I don't want them to get in between us.
- Heather! - What?
- Get over here. - What happened?
Why were you being mean about me?
What was mean? I never said anything mean.
By the way, you're the one
that's saying mean things about me!
God, no!
Terry and I inherited all of our money...
I don't care where you got your money.
Vicki! Our mothers are alive.
Where did we inherit money from?
Terry's brother.
His mother's alive! If he had had any money...
Don't yell at me. First of all, don't yell at me!
[dramatic music]
Our mothers are alive! Where did we inherit money from?
Terry's brother.
His mother's alive! If he had any money...
Don't yell at me. First of all, don't yell at me!
My husband worked at Kentucky Fried Chicken.
And has worked his ass off, as we both have...
I don't doubt that.
...for everything we have! See all this?
This was paid for by boobs!
By boobs?
Lots of boobs.
- Oh, boobs! Tits! - Yes.
Doctors don't live in $40 million homes.
Or $20 million homes.
I mean, I know a lot of doctors.
Heather's an actress, so maybe it's her Emmy award acting
that got her all that money.
We didn't inherit our money!
Okay!
And we're good!
Fine!
- Go talk to your other friends! - Jesus!
Wow.
----ing bitch!
She lit you up!
I lit her up.
Yeah.
[upbeat music]
Shannon, come over here.
Okay, not my back!
Oh! Jesus! I gotta get up! I gotta get... I gotta get up!
Get up!
[laughing]
What is this?
Diamonds, but the diamonds are gone.
- Did you have fun? - Yeah, I had fun.
Did you talk to Shannon at all?
No, I don't feel like this is the place.
[laughing]
Oh. Oh!
Do we have stuff to talk about?
Yeah, we've got stuff to talk about.
[giggling]
I'm glad to hear you say that you feel like there's stuff
to talk about, because, Tamra,
I'm just going to shoot you very straight,
'cause I want you to shoot me very straight.
Sometimes we get together and you're not there.
It's not always the kindest conversations.
The fakeness when it comes to you...
I'm just personally tired of it.
I sat down with Heather, and when she talked about you,
she just very much said, she puts you in a box,
and she can compartmentalize her friends.
[dramatic music]
Okay.
I appreciate you actually bringing it to me.
I feel good being able to tell Tamra this!
In the past, her eyes would've rolled back in her head
and steam out of her ears.
I am excited to see this change in Tamra.
That's kind of sh----y.
But I mean, maybe there's something
to step into with that.
I totally appreciate you. For telling me.
Should I not have stepped into this?
Yeah. You did. It's probably not the best idea.
- I'll process it! - What does that mean?
And we will meet and talk...
later, if that's okay.
Sure! Yeah.
Yeah. I just wanna try to process it.
Heather talking behind my back
and saying that she puts me in a box makes me think, wow,
are you really my real friend?
And it kinda breaks my heart.
I just told her, when you're in rooms and you're not around,
there is sh-- that's being said.
She basically just told her that you put her in a box
and that's how you deal with it.
You told her I said I put her in a box?
Yes, I said we all did.
Uh-oh. Uh-oh. What happened?
Did something happen?
I'll tell you in the car.
Jenn is stepping in sh-- right now.
And instead of just taking a moment to step back and say,
maybe I should clean it off my shoe,
she's now stepped in with the other foot.
I felt, the other night,
we had this very real conversation
where she probably didn't like a lot of what I had to say.
And I wasn't there,
and I'm grateful that we're starting to do that.
But that was forward motion,
and now I feel like it's backwards.
- I've stepped you back. - Yep.
After spending more time with Jenn,
feeling like we're sympatico,
for her to give this information to Tamra
and cause a problem, what a disappointment.
I think sometimes we gotta go backwards
and just be really honest to go forward.
Well, she just didn't say goodbye to me,
and wouldn't look me in the eye, and left.
And it's gonna come back in a different direction.
[dramatic music]
This season on the Real Housewives of Orange County.
20 years of Housewives, baby!

It's the housewives of the past!
I was a baby!
And trust me, we're not done!
[cheering]
Vegas!
I won!
[cheering]
Here's to Tokyo!
[cheering]
Get it, Shannon!
Did you meet somebody?
He texted me and asked me out tonight.
- I'll get you one. - I'll give you a blowjob later.
- What's her name? - Carmella.
I don't like new girls.
But you're new, too, this year!
- I started this franchise. - Everything has an expiration.
Oh, sh--.
Heather said she thinks that you're obsessed with her.
No, what I said--
Emily, you told me she said I'm obsessed.
- Let me just answer it! - You've been talking all night!
I was your best friend! Let it go.
[sneezes]
She's probably allergic to me.
She's trying to piss on us.
I wanted to do something nice.
You didn't even have her phone number
and you brought her a dildo!
I don't want there to be things left unsaid.
I can't think of anything!
How you're raised affects who you become.
Are people being unkind to you?
Yeah.
I don't want you to be sad.
Are you and Shane doing okay?
You seem like you're at your end.
I don't know, maybe.
Oh, it's so pretty!
There's a part of me, like, can I do this forever?
He has a ring for you?
He's had it for a year!
There is no... ring.
[gasps]
I'm gonna lose my ----ing mind right now.
You said that I chose fame over being a mom!
I'm gonna walk away if you cannot hold your tongue.
I don't care!
Everybody can get the [bleep] out of my home.
- I'm out. - Who farted?
Oh! It smells so bad!
