At dinner in the Berkshires, everyone gets a little tipsy and absolutely insane.
Even Bethenny has let her hair down and is documenting it all for her Instagram story.
While all of this is going on, Barbara K goes to bed.
She should not be in bed.
She should not be leaving early the next morning.
She should be downstairs watching Sonja and Ramona scissor on the pool table like theyre trying to remake MadonnasSexbook.
She should be slurring insults with Dorinda until the sun comes up.
She should be sneaking cigarettes out on the back porch with Luann and Tinsley when the cameras arent looking.
But no, shes asleep.
Later in the episode, at Bethennys party, a game of Truth or Dare breaks out.
No one wants to ask Barbara to either truth or dare.
They just want her to go away.
Her only moment to shine is when someone dares Bethenny to make out with her.
But even her lust for Bethenny I find a little bit boring.
Im not trying to get into her pants.
Sonja really seems to be upset, however, because someone is out-lesbianing her.
Barbara K has stolen Sonjas only party trick, and now she doesnt know what to do.
Its like if someone kept doing the splits in front of Kyle Richards.
Dont be an interloper, she says repeatedly in that way only Dorinda deep in her cups can.
As Bethenny says, Tinsley does not seem happy at all.
Either that or he wants her to just move to Chicago and push out some kids and shes unwilling.
However, it seems clear to everyone that this dude needs to go.
Thats what separates the New York women from a show likeRich Women Doing Things.
Apparently when Bethenny said the dress code is sparkly, Ramona didnt know what that meant.
Or what about when Ramona meets Sonja and Luann for blowouts and she brings her dog, Coco?
That is hilariously insane.
Ramona Singer, and that is why she makes the big reality-TV bucks.
I also love that Coco is exactly like Carole Radziwill and only has one good summer left.
We also need to give props to Bethennys hairdresser.
all at the same time.
Her ex-boyfriend Russ shows up because he staffed the event with hot male bartenders.
Strangely, Sapphic Sonja is on her best behavior.
Ramona is on fire the night of the dinner.
Ramona, your drink order is just a vodka-soda in a wineglass?
Why does she gotta think shes fancy?
Why does she have to make it a lot harder than it really is?
Why does she have to Reply All What is sparkly?
For the same reason she doesnt know how to play Truth or Dare.
Ramona looks good and all, but is she starting to have senior moments?
I loved every single second of it.
The only thing that doesnt fit into the theme of fun is Tinsleys weird lunch with Luann.
See, Tinsleys father was an alcoholic who died after falling down a flight of stairs drunk.
This is weird for a number of reasons.
Isnt Luann doing what Tinsley wished her father could do?
Maybe thats what she feels toward Luann: resentment.
How did this reality star figure it out when her father couldnt?
The whole thing is very strange.
Bethenny headed to Beantown the day before to see a man she had been dating.
There was a note reading, You look spectacular.
Youre amazing as always.
She thinks that there are signs after someone close to you dies and this is one of those signs.
This just makes it clear that this show is haunted.
The Berkshires are haunted.
The energy is swirling all around them, the departed, the former, those who have slipped away.
