Think about how few scenes are actually in this episode.

Those are all the occasions they need to wring out a compelling hour of television.

When was this filmed?

What month was this?

Are they social distancing?

Can they get an antibody test?

Something must be done to protect these essential workers!

(Seriously, though, it was the fall.

It wasnt COVID.)

Luann says she knows.

She says its because Tinsley screeches and is annoying so Dorinda is mean to her.

Across town the other women are talking about the same event.

Precisely, so why wont Ramona say that to her face?

Maybe because when Ramona brings it up at their group spa day it doesnt go very well.

Once a month there was a gay party there called Bana.

All guests had to be in bathing suits and there was an open bar.

Ramona calls it rustic, which is the nicest euphemism for janky I ever heard.

The editors also focus on the Grade Pending sign in the window.

She is probably not wrong.

But I love that Leah took them there.

I love that Leah wants to show them her New York and is unapologetic about it.

Yes, this is now a Leah stan account.

Pissed in a corn maze, yelled at each other, Sonja puked on the floor.

Just another Wednesday in late October.

(Wait, is this the same fight that iscurrently happening with Kyle Richardson RHOBH?)

Dorinda responds by saying, You do the same thing so you should know it very well.

To quote Leah, ZING!

But also not zing.

Ramona will lash out at people, sure.

It was a foul, but it was in the service of the greater good.

She also could have brought up when shecalled Sonja a slutin front of Candace Bushnell.

Like colonialism, history is riddled with her cruelty.

This comes up again at Ramonas party and Fox News anchor look-alike contest.

It was Sonja in the Clip!

Then at the beginning of last season it was Luann.

Then it was Tinsley.

If Leah sticks around long enough, its definitely going to be her.

While its a legit explanation, Ramona should not have resorted to that.

Its like all of the sudden Scottie beamed us up to a planet called Belowthebeltovia.

Theyve been through too much to treat each other like this.

Another Monday evening in early November.

Just like Count Chocula, she thinks, chuckling to herself.

After months of doorstep delivery, shes at the store again.

But its great to be around people, outside of her own company.

She needs to be out among the masses, to be recognized, to be asked for a selfie.

She needs to tell someone to follow her on Instagram, to look for her on Cameo.

As she gets to the front of the line, she hears that familiar refrain.

Excuse me, a womans voice says.

Jill Zarin turns toward it, ready to be asked if she is her, ready to be known.

Maam, you gotta wear a mask if you want to come into the store.
