Main Theme & Episode Overview

Ben Mandelker and Ronnie Karam return to dissect Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 15, Episode 17: "Anti Cover Coven." The episode unfurls at Rachel’s 1970s Studio 54-themed backyard birthday bash, where alliances are shifting, old grievances surface, and an impending book cover party threatens to fracture the group further. Ben and Ronnie serve their usual mix of loving mockery, brutal honesty, and inside Bravo jokes as they recap the drama, the shade, and several moments of comedic brilliance from both the show and themselves.

Episode Breakdown

1. Studio 54 Virgo Birthday Bash (03:19–15:50)

• The Party’s Setting: Rachel’s backyard transforms into a Studio 54-style disco, packed with Virgos, flamboyant outfits, and a healthy dose of Housewives competitiveness.

• Zodiac Banter (03:51–06:39): Ben and Ronnie hilariously parse which Bravolebs share their signs, with Ben repping Sagittarius (“Nene Leakes, Sonja Morgan, Candace Dillard, and Bronwyn Windham Burke... That’s a loud group!” – Ben, 04:44), while Ronnie laments his Virgo cohort (“Caroline Manzo—God, they're all people I yell at.” – Ronnie, 05:11)

• Dorit’s Drink Order and Exclusion: Dorit lingers at the bar (ordering her iconic over-complicated cocktail, 07:04), feeling left out as Kyle, Sutton, Amanda, and Natalie take photos together.

• Erica’s Grievances: Erica resents feeling unsupported by the group, especially Kyle and her “army of soldiers” (07:16).

  • “I'm just waiting for someone to hand them all matching uniforms.” – Erica, 07:16
  • Ben and Ronnie call out Erica’s hypocrisy: “You were the general!” – Ben, 07:29

2. Fashion, Feuds, and Shade at the Party (10:09–21:19)

• Jennifer’s Outfit and Reunion Look Dissection: Ben and Ronnie riff on Jennifer’s Balmain dress featuring her own face, mocking the other Housewives’ reunion looks (“It looks like some teenagers… just toilet papered Amanda!” – Ronnie, 10:33)
• Group Scenes: Awkward small talk and social jockeying dominate, with Dorit visibly shifting her demeanor based on who’s present (19:32).

4. Prepping for Dorit’s “Book Cover” Party & Frayed Group Unity (44:27–59:17)

• The Invitation Dilemma: The central conflict is who will attend Dorit's “Unburdened” book cover reveal party. Kyle, Sutton, and Erica each wrestle (often performatively) with whether to go.
  • Ben and Ronnie place bets that this is a power move to ice Dorit out of the group for good (57:39).
  • Amanda’s justified apathy: “I guess you have to actually, like, write a book to call it that. So more of like a reveal for the COVID of the book.” – Amanda, 58:34

• Shoulder Pads as Metaphor: Of course, Dorit wears massive shoulder pads, equating them with bearing life’s burdens (“The theme is shoulders. Because when you’re unburdened, you have less on your shoulders. So now I have more on my shoulders. Does that make sense?” – Dorit, 63:05)
• Housewives Absenteeism: Dorit reels as she learns, in rapid succession, that Kyle, Sutton, and Erica (and “Natalie” with a foot disease) will not attend her event. Ronnie: “The only consistent thing about Sutton is her inconsistency.” (71:39)

• Parallel to Dorit’s Breakup: Conversation turns to PK’s new girlfriend, drawing comparisons and more mockery (“You marry PK and then you can’t wonder why everybody has lost respect for you…” – Ronnie, 68:43)

Timestamps

---

7. Engagement Subplot – Bose and Keely (49:21–52:20)

• Bose’s Surprise Engagement: A staged mother-daughter “date” at BOA turns into a surprise engagement with Keely, who delivers a cheesy proposal (“…In Ghana, I knew I was not gonna be Ghana. See what I did there?” – Keely, 51:25)
• Hosts’ Sarcasm: Ben and Ronnie poke fun at the stilted, orchestrated nature of Bravo engagements and the comic value of Keely’s lines.
  • “He did not rent out BOA. Sorry.” – Ronnie, 50:12

Timestamps

• Engagement: 49:21–52:20

Recurring Themes & Podcast Tone

• Ben and Ronnie’s Irreverence: From lampooning the Housewives’ self-absorption to offering meta-commentary on Bravo editorial choices, the hosts keep the episode light-hearted, biting, and self-aware.
• Compassion Meets Critique: While they mock Sutton, Kyle, and Dorit for their never-ending cycle of drama and victimhood, the hosts occasionally offer insight into the psychology behind the behavior.
• Inside Jokes & Callbacks: Signature bits include dramatic recitations of drink orders, dramatic readings of Housewives’ Instagram captions, and running gags about how none of these women are as close as they claim.

Conclusion

Ben and Ronnie expertly dissect a high-pettiness, low-substance episode of RHOBH, balancing loving ribbing with moments of genuine insight. Whether you missed the show or want to relive the absurdity, their recap captures everything: the shifting allegiances, the recurring patterns of victimhood and exclusion, and the uniquely Bravo blend of luxury, loneliness, and late arrivals—topped off with running jokes about book covers, shoulder pads, and Sutton’s ever-expanding collection of wounded feelings.

Next week: The hosts preview what’s likely to be the finale, promising more drama, more shade, and—undoubtedly—more carbs.

[Ben]

So much drama. Because where we left off, it was Rachel, Studio 54 birthday bash. Like, literally be like Andy Warhol and just like, be dead in Pittsburgh somewhere. Because that's what's happening at this party. Oh, my God. So everyone is there in her backyard, in Rachel's backyard for the Studio 54 bash. And specifically, there are a lot of Virgos, because a lot of this party is her being like, oh, my God, where are my Virgos? Like, Virgos, come over here. Virgos. Yeah, Virgos are here. Okay, I got my Virgos.

[Ronnie]

Yeah, all the Virgos come here for a picture. And I don't know, like, when a bunch of Virgos get together and it's like, Amanda in the group, because I'm a Virgo, you know, I'm always like, God damn it, why don't I get Amanda on my side? I mean, I guess I got a Rachel too, but I don't know. Why don't I get, like, a Bose or. Yeah, I don't know. Vanderpump, something like that. Get Amanda.

[Ben]

I know. I don't know. I wonder which Bravo liberties are Sagittariuses. Let me ask which Bravo labs are Sagittarius? Come on, give me something good. Ooh, Nene Leaks, Sonia Morgan, Candace Dillard, and Bronwyn Windham Burke.

[Ronnie]

So they're always sticking up for Bronwyn no matter what.

[Ben]

Dorinda. Dorinda, too. I love my fellow SAG Housewives. This is wonderful.

[Ronnie]

So you would definitely do that at your birthday?

[Ben]

Yeah, I bring them all up. That's kind of. I mean, that's a very. It's a very loud group.

[Ronnie]

Oh, my God. My. My group is not great. Well, I do have Vanderpump, so I did get that wish, so that's good. Okay. Listen to who else I have Caroline Manzo. God, they're all people that I yell at, really on the show, if you think about it. Listen. Listen to this lineup.

[Ben]

This is.

[Ronnie]

This is crazy.

[Ben]

The disappointment in your.

[Ronnie]

Well, who wants, like, Manzo as their first option? You know, okay, Caroline Manz, Gisele Bryant, who, you know, Giselle's funny and stuff, but God knows I've yelled at Giselle over the years on this show. Leah, who's like the darkest energy of Bravo. Leah, what's her buns, McSweeney, Nicole from Real Housewives of Miami, who you know, Fine. Kim. Kim Richards, Camille Grammer, Sutton and Tamara Barney.

[Dorit]

Yes.

[Ben]

That's pretty. That's a good. You know, you have some, like, more chill people there, but you have some really big names. The fact that you have Tamara and Caroline Manzo is hilarious.

[Ronnie]

Funny. The first comment. This is a Reddit post from two years ago that I found on the Internet. And the first comment says, as a fellow Virgo, what a group of hell beasts and demons. Mostly complimentary.

[Ben]

Wait a second. I just. I just want to say also that on Reddit they had someone put up a. A three by three grid of other. This is a year ago. Of other Bravo labs who are Sagittariuses. In addition to the ones I mentioned, there's also Adriana Demora. There's Lisa Barlow Garcelle, Meredith Marks, and Mia from Potomac.

[Ronnie]

So.

[Ben]

God, the Sagittarius pool is really strong.

[Ronnie]

Yes. Yeah. Really? Yeah, it really is. Okay, so getting into it, the women are all at the house for her birthday party, and people are taking pictures. Like, Kyle, Sutton, Amanda, and Natalie are all taking a group picture. And Dorit's like, whatever. She's just at the bar being bitter. Like, can I have a bit of a dear with 18 lemons without the rinds on them?

[Dorit]

But squeeze the rinds and then shave the rinds into the glass and then

[Ronnie]

remove the rinds again and then fold filter the drink. One thing is for sure,

[Erica]

With all the that I'm going through, I should be looking forward to seeing my friends and getting a strong sense of support that I need. But instead, I have to deal with Kyle and her army of soldiers, and I'm just waiting for someone to hand them all matching uniforms.

[Ben]

I'm like, you know, you were one of those soldiers. You were the general.

[Ronnie]

Yes.

[Ben]

Like, don't act like you're surprised by this.

[Ronnie]

Yes, you're a defector, but you are one of the soldiers and you didn't really even defect. You're Kind of getting kicked out. So now at the bar, Nico's just hanging out with Dorit, which is so cute, you know, because he's, like, the only one who will talk to Dorit, but he's hanging out with her, and he's like, oh, my God, that Kelly. She goes, oh, my God. I knew.

[Ben]

I knew.

[Dorit]

Don't tell Kyle.

[Ronnie]

It's on the table.

[Dorit]

She'll sue me.

[Ben]

So Kyle sits down with Sutton, and they're like. They see Dorit from afar, and they're like, oh, my God. Awkward. Awkward and cycles. Okay, she's here. What you're gonna do? What are you gonna do? Well, I mean, like, honestly, like, at this point, I'm like, I don't know. Like, I don't know. It's kind of hard to watch, honestly, like, yeah, I mean, like, listen, we've argued, we've disagreed, we've hurt each other's feelings. We've both been in Halloween movie franchises. Actually, that was just me. Sorry. We've both been in er. Just me again.

[Ronnie]

We.

[Ben]

We both had a TV show on the Spike network. No, that was. I think, just me. Was that my Paramount network? Whatever it is, I guess I'm the successful one. But that night was really the worst. The worst.

[Sutton]

Oh, my God.

[Ronnie]

Call Natural 911. So she's telling us, you know, dorit is on the path of destruction, and she tossed out a friendship with Erica

[Sutton]

and me, And I just feel so angry and frustrated, but, you know, I

[Ronnie]

also feel really sad. You do not feel sad. Stop it. You dumped Dorit years ago, and this whole, like, I've been great friends to Dorit. You spent the entire year last year telling us you had never been friends with dorit and just your husbands were friends, and you don't even know why this lady is following you around. So stop acting like you have been the best friend Dorit has ever had. This narrative is so crazy. Crazy. And people in the comments being like, kyle has been an amazing friend to do what? The show. Have you guys been watching? And that's not to say that Dorit is so innocent. Dorit needs to stop being late, period. I don't know how anybody puts up with that, but this is all a little bit much.

[Sutton]

I'm such a good friend to you.

[Ben]

I'm like, a great friend. I mean, like, Dorit calling a friend to cut fitness, like, that is, like, awful. I know, right? Like, I guess I don't know what Erica did. She's like, yeah, I don't know what I did.

[Erica]

Right?

[Ben]

I Mean, I know you're trying to defend Erica, but what about me? What about me? So Jennifer shows up. Her hair is like, so enormous. She's just sort of like teased it all the way out in this giant cascade of 70s hair, which is kind of amazing. And of course, the thing that everyone was talking about yesterday were the Beverly Hills reunion looks. And Jennifer really stole the show because she's wearing a dress that has her face, like, on it from, like, shoulder to kneel. It's kind of amazing.

[Ronnie]

Balmain. It's like a custom Balmain dress. Yes. With her face on it. And they're saying that she did that because Amanda was like, who's Jennifer Tilly? I don't know who fucking Jennifer Tilly is. While she was wearing a T shirt that had Balmain all over it. So Jessica was. Jennifer was like, yeah. Oh, really? Balmain made this for me, you dumb hooker.

[Dorit]

So enjoy.

[Ronnie]

So she comes over. Oh, by the way, those looks for the reunion. I guess we'll get to those in a couple weeks. Good Lord, those holy secret lives of Mormon wives. What are they wearing and what's her buns? Who's I going to talk about? Amanda. The best part was that somebody toilet papered Amanda. I love that. It looks like some teenagers just finally surrounded her and toilet papered her. Because I saw a post of hers this week that was like, did I make a million dollars when I was 20?

[Dorit]

Do I own my own house and

[Ronnie]

don't need a man? That's $3.4 million.

[Dorit]

Do I have five mom cars?

[Ronnie]

Am I rich?

[Dorit]

Yes.

[Ronnie]

Yes, I am. I was like, oh, God, shut up. And so I just love that after that, some kids from the neighborhood just showed up and toilet papered her ass. I know.

[Ben]

That look was not a triumph. She manifested the wrong things. So Jennifer comes over and, oh, you

[Erica]

guys are having a personal conversation, I see.

[Dorit]

Hello, gorgeous girls.

[Ben]

So Kyle is like, yeah, don't join us, join us. We're just like, talking about the whole situation that happened last night in Italy. That last night, Italy. And I just like, I have, like, not heard from her since we've been back, which is crazy because I'm actually going to be in the Lincoln Lawyer and you would think that you'd want to talk to a working actress.

[Dorit]

That was insane. That was crazy.

[Ronnie]

So across the party, Erica is going up to Bose and they're like, oh, my God, you look so good now. You look so good now.

[Sutton]

You look so good now.

[Ben]

You look so good.

[Ronnie]

Rachel gives her a speech and she's like, guys, we have a lot of Virgos in my backyard tonight and I'm so happy you're all here. I hope you guys can hear me from the other side. But you know what? Don't walk towards the light. It's bullshit. Stay there as long as you can. Can we get Bruce Willis here to give this speech? Because I'm dead.

[Ben]

I'm literally dead right now. Like, the only thing that's making me even deader than I already was was the fact that Xand is here. Like, I thought he lived in the Hamptons the way I live in the Hamptons now, but he like came all the way out here for my birthday. Like, Xander's here, guys. Oh my God. He's going to sing Happy Birthday a little bit later and it's going to be the most beautiful rendition of Happy

[Ronnie]

Birthday you've ever heard.

[Ben]

Get ready for zan, guys. Get ready.

[Ronnie]

This is a night to celebrate life and have fun and just eat and drinks and dance and all of that. Thanks, guys. Is like, you did great, mom. She's like, love you, Love you, moisturize. Love you. So she gives him a little kiss and Kathy's like, is that the little boy Kaius?

[Sutton]

And Kyle goes, I'm Kathy's.

[Ronnie]

She's like, no, it's Caius. God, Kyle, you're that out to lunch on everybody. You know, Kyle's always like, I'm the best friend. You don't even know her name. You don't even know her son's name. Kathy knows it more than you, Kyle. That's. That's just a shame.

[Ben]

Lisa Vanderpump is somewhere sipping some tea and saying, never forget Nanny K. Nanny

[Ronnie]

K. It's time for a commercial. It's time for a Grappens commercial.

[Ben]

So then we see people around the party. We see our friend Kelty. Kelty is like talking to Dorit and Dorit's like, she's like, you're aging in reverse. Of course. Kelty's like, yeah, I just got a facelift. That's why.

[Ronnie]

So then Bose is talking to Erica

[Sutton]

and it's like, oh, I haven't seen your sensitivity. Have you talked to Dorit?

[Dorit]

And she's like, oh, I'm going to give her some space. You know, I've been a good friend of Dorit. I'm still a good friend to Dorit. But Dorit's going through some things. She's overwhelmed. That's okay, because you know what? Sometimes pain makes you a dumb bitch. I'm just not dealing with it. You know what I mean? When my friends are going through pain, this is what I do. I back away. I back away until they're done with the pain. Who needs it? I need some place from delete to reassess our relationship. Is it worth salvaging? I don't know, but I need a moment to find out.

[Erica]

And maybe Shrek over there.

[Ben]

So then Dorit shows. She walks up to Eric and Bose and she's like, hi. And they're all like, hello. So Dorit like, sort of sits down awkwardly and now the whole group is together because they producers have clearly said you guys have to sit together and do a group scene. But they're all kind of avoiding each other.

[Ronnie]

Yeah, well, there's. Kyle sees it from across the party.

[Sutton]

She's like, oh, my God. Well, now Dorit's over there. Now, Dorit, what do we do? Should we go over there?

[Ronnie]

Kyle, why are you acting like Dorit has done something to you? You're the one who keeps showing up and confronting her. Wherever she is, she's not doing anything. That's what's killing me. Like, if. If the woman did something, it would be different, but it's like she just walks into a room and calls like,

[Sutton]

oh, my God, there she is.

[Ronnie]

This whole party, she's just been walking

[Sutton]

around going, oh, my God, there's dorit. Look, Dorit's coming in.

[Ronnie]

Oh, my God. Dorit has a purse.

[Sutton]

Oh, my God. Dorit's sitting down. Oh, my God. Dorit's talking to this.

[Ronnie]

Jesus Christ. What's. Nothing's happening, Kyle.

[Ben]

Nothing is going on. So Sutton is next to Dorit, and she's like, hey, so are you and Kyle gonna talk tonight?

[Erica]

And Dorit's like, well, this is the first moment that I've seen her and her and I do need to have a conversation, but I've had a really, really int week, and my kids just started school this week, and Phoenix has had a really tough transition.

[Ronnie]

And then we see one hour earlier in the car, and Dorit's like, phoenix

[Dorit]

has such bad anxiety. She was such a shell of herself, crying, saying she doesn't feel woody, she doesn't fit in cause a beach.

[Sutton]

And she's like, oh, so, yeah, it's a big deal.

[Ronnie]

So Dorit's telling her, you know, I'll have that conversation when my head's more in the right place. And so it's like, well, you know, I think it would be nice to just say, you know, I'm sorry I haven't talked to you in the past week. I think that would be nice. I do.

[Dorit]

Well, I'm happy to hear your opinion, but that's definitely not how I'm leaning. So why should I apologize for not speaking to coil when I never even got a call?

[Ben]

Dorit, I like when she goes, I'm happy to hear your opinion. Which is her way of saying, I'm

[Erica]

not happy to hear your opinion.

[Ronnie]

I think she's dealing with Sutton very well here. And they're. They're gonna make. Sutton's about to make this, like, dorit's bullying her or something. But yeah, I thought that was very nice. Like, thank you for your opinion. Not leaning that way right now instead of saying mind your own business, you popsicle stick legged lady. Let leave me the fuck alone and let me deal with my own problems. You're not even involved in this. Go try and start fights with stupid Amanda, okay? No one's playing this game with you, Sutton, lady who's done nothing all year. You want to cry about your son not fixing vending mach and Santa Monica anymore? Come on, go away.

[Ben]

Yeah, so Dorit's like, thank you, but no thank you.

[Erica]

And with the help of not sounding

[Ben]

too rude about what you're.

[Erica]

What you recommended to me.

[Ben]

And then she, before she can finish her sentence, Rachel sits down. Hi, I'm here. I had to sit here. This is my final resting place because I'm dead. And of course, at this point, Dorit completely changes her. What? Her. She has like her whole demeanor. Because Rachel's there, she's always got to like kind of kiss Rachel's ass.

[Erica]

So she says Sutton has got a lot of opinions of how I should approach Kyle.

[Ben]

And Sun's like, like, Sutton shocked. Like, how dare you throw me under the bus like that.

[Erica]

Why are you making me out to

[Ben]

be the bad guy? Like, that's what her face is saying right there.

[Ronnie]

And that's literally what Sutton just did too. Yeah, so it was pretty accurate.

[Dorit]

Andrea's like, for the first time in forever, Sutton and I are finally starting to have a free and ship.

[Ronnie]

But then she starts talking behind me back.

[Dorit]

And now her a desperate obsession for Coil's approval has gotten the best of her. She's taken off friendship and she's flushed it down the twilight.

[Ben]

And then we see scenes where, you know, like all those scenes that are evidence of Sutton talking behind Dorit's back. So Sutton's like, so about the investigatory behavior. I would have been pissed. All that stuff, you know?

[Ronnie]

Yes.

[Ben]

So sudden is. Is like, well, she's still doing that face. Like, I can't believe that Dorit's not taking my advice. So Rachel's like, hey, we're dancing. You're gonna dance with me and have fun. It was the last fucking thing I do. Which it will be because after we dance, I'm dead. So come on. Final rights. Deathbed dancing starts right now, bitch.

[Ronnie]

Doom. Fucking great. So she gets up and she goes to dance and Kyle's like glaring at them.

[Sutton]

She's like, oh my God, Dorit's dancing. Dorit's on the move, everybody. What's she gonna be doing now? Oh, my God, is she gonna dance? Oh, everybody.

[Ronnie]

And Sutton is just looking crushed and shook up. Shut down.

[Dorit]

Shut down.

[Ronnie]

Jennifer, discuss.

[Dorit]

You got real shut down. Whoa. You were like a Joanne's fabrics. Finally. I've been waiting for it to happen, but finally you were shut down. I really should have gone into those sales.

[Ben]

This is like mean girl Dorit101. Like, oh, I don't like what you said, so I'm gonna ignore you and make you feel even smaller. I'm like, have you seen what you do, sudden? When you don't like what someone says?

[Erica]

It's so mean.

[Ben]

She's showing her true colors. She's only about herself. That's literally what people are complaining about.

[Erica]

Sudden.

[Ben]

What did you not get from that last dinner party in Italy? You had your chance to chime in then, and you didn't.

[Ronnie]

And she didn't ignore you. You brought up a point. She addressed your point and told you how she felt about it, and then you just sat there trying to glare at her with your cat eyes, and she left. There's. She didn't ignore you. She. She gave you.

[Sutton]

Exactly.

[Ronnie]

She gave you the conversation you asked for. It just didn't go your way. So now she's gonna turn this into, I have been bullied. Bullied. Kyle, protect me.

[Dorit]

Protect me.

[Ronnie]

Kyle doesn't like you. When are you gonna understand you are not part of that clique? You can try all you want, but you're not ever gonna be part of that clique. Kyle does not like you. Erica does not like you. You're not part of, like, this constant need to be approved by those dummies is ridiculous. You're not in that.

[Ben]

Yeah. She's like, I don't give a. I'm

[Erica]

really trying to fucking not give a. I'm leaving.

[Ben]

I'm leaving. And Kyle's like, you're not leaving. We haven't even danced yet. Since when does Kyle care about that? So she.

[Ronnie]

I see a floor without.

[Sutton]

I see a floor without Kyle. Slime on it. Let's do the splits.

[Ben]

Little does she realize she's about to get appropriated by Natalie, who doesn't say anything in this episode. She has fewer lines than Kelty, but she definitely gets to do the splits.

[Ronnie]

Yes. So, yeah, Carl's like, to read.

[Sutton]

Well, we're gonna dance. We're gonna dance.

[Ronnie]

I don't want to dance. I'm really not up. Bullied. And I'm not gonna pretend that this is fun. So come on, let's go. Let's just go for a minute. Come on. So now, Kathy Collins, Sutton go inside. And Sutton's kind of wobbling. She's like, where are my shoes? Where are my shoes? Probably stole my shoes.

[Ben]

Just needs. She just needs a scene change because they. Like, there's no difference between having the conversation on the sofas outside versus the sofas inside. But when they go. Once they go inside, she's like, okay, okay, I'm ready here. I think that son just needs to feel like she's being coddled, like, we're gonna take you to a special place to give you special attention so you stay around for the end of the scene. So Kyle's like, so, what just happened? Okay, show me on the pillow where Dorit hurt you.

[Erica]

She goes, well, Jennifer asked Dorit if she talked to Kyle.

[Ben]

She said no. And I told Dorit it might been nice for her to reach out to you at some point. Which is not what she said. You said, why don't you say, I'm sorry I didn't call you? Which is very different. And whatever she said.

[Erica]

And then.

[Ben]

And then Dorit, she just starts talking to Rachel when I'm just sitting right there. So this is, of course, Sutton's biggest trigger, which is that she's not the coolest one in the room. She's not accepted. And you have Rachel there. And Dorit cares more about going on a dance floor with Rachel than she does than sitting with. With Sutton and talking about things. That's how she perceives it.

[Ronnie]

And there's not even problems that Sutton has with Dorit. She's going over there to go make Dorit kiss Kyle's ass. It's like, why would you think that she's going to respond well to that instead of someone coming over to be friendly to her? It's just stupid. So she's like, it was very condescending, and I do not like it. I do not like it. But, you know, I have emotions, and I have things going on too. My son fixed vending machines in Santa Monica. They are not going to be able to get their almond joyous. Who is gonna serve Almond choice to those poor people?

[Ben]

You know, I am now alone. I'm seriously alone, even though I keep on saying that I'm alone. And the past, like, three seasons, my storyline's been that I'm alone, but now I'm really low because that boy that you never see, he's gone too. So, yeah, I've been, like, holding it together all summer long, and I haven't even been able to drink because you guys shaved me so hard last year. It's been hard.

[Ronnie]

Real hard. Y' all made me gave up my best friend Belvedere.

[Ben]

I've been there, Kyle style.

[Ronnie]

One thing, and Kathy's just blinking at them like, whoa. Where is anybody talking about? So Sutton is telling us I dropped my baby off at college. That was stressful and it was hurtful. And if dorit took one second to pay attention, she might realize we can all help on each other. We can all help each other. You are not trying to help dorit. Stop it, victim.

[Ben]

Yeah, you're trying to help Kyle. We all. We all have things going on because a lot going on. I'd like to add, this was supposed to be still my divorce season. So Sutton's like, and your daughter's wedding is next week. See, Notice how I. I brought that back from, like, 18 episodes ago because America forgot or pushed it out of their minds because no one cared about it. I brought it back for you, Kyle. That's what I did. I could be your best friend. I could take Dorit's place.

[Sutton]

You think this is on my top list of priorities?

[Ronnie]

No. Then why are you walking around watching what dorit's doing every second of the party? It seems like you care because that's what you've done the entire party. So she is, you know, counting on her fingers.

[Sutton]

She's like, oh, my God. Listening. Everyone that dorit has problems with right now, I mean, it's Amanda, it's me, it's Erica, it's Sutton. You know what they say, Meet more than one asshole a day, and you're usually the asshole.

[Ben]

Or you are a specific type of doctor. So then no kidding, you could just be a proctologist. Yeah. So Kathy's like, why give this such importance?

[Ronnie]

But just to make it clear, I meet a lot of every day, and I am an. And, Kyle, from one to another, you are also an. You are an.

[Ben]

Okay. It also, to be fair, if you meet a lot of in one day, then you probably are the. Yes, but also, they can be too. It's just. You're just one more. You're just not exempt as you think you were. Yeah.

[Ronnie]

So back in the party, Kathy's like, why give this such importance? Like, who cares? And Sutton's wiping tears. She's like, oh, God, I really hurt my feelings, Kathy. And I'm not gonna say it's because you have nothing going on. That's why no one hurt your feelings. Okay. And Kathy's like, you know you just have to say, you're not getting rid of me. I'm gonna still be here no matter what. I mean, that's what Carol does, God bless her. She can't even match a ribbon to a. A to a bell jar. But she's still here. I've changed the locks four times. She just climbs right over the fence.

[Ben]

Let's go dance. So they go to the dance floor, and now it's dancing time. And they're having fun dancing to probably Love Shack or whatever. And they're just, like, dancing, dancing, dancing. And we see Natalie doing the split. This is where she does the big old splits. And she gets. She sort of gets stuck down there. She's so bad at this that she doesn't even tease her face forward to the. To meet the camera. We just see the back of her head. I was like, come on, Natalie. You got to know where the cameras are. So Jennifer's like, well, I bet she

[Erica]

earned every single penny of that massive divorce settlement.

[Ronnie]

So back to the party. Kyle and Sutton are back outside sitting together, and now they're in a different setting to talk about Dorit some more. They're trying so hard to make this a thing, and Dorit does not care

[Sutton]

because I was like, oh, my God. I think you should talk to Dorit.

[Ronnie]

I'm going to. I'm going to Dorit. We need to have a talk. Let me grab you for a second. She goes, well, that's annoying lady I'm talking to. I'll hate Sutton forever for this. She goes, what do you mean you're gonna hate me forever? She's like, I'm kidding. I was enjoying my conversation for the fourth time.

[Ben]

Well, I'm sorry. Notice how I said the word sorry? It wasn't a big deal. You really have hurt my feelings just.

[Erica]

Just now.

[Ben]

Dori gives that face of, like, are you kidding me? Like, you. My. How much will it cost for this car to be repaired? That kind of face. And Sutton is like, well, okay, being like, where the.

[Ronnie]

Where are the Bugles, babe? You've eaten the Bugles. I haven't eaten them.

[Dorit]

Where are they?

[Ronnie]

You know, she's looking like Millie Melee the back.

[Erica]

I just bought the one I just brought into the house five minutes ago. You're out of it.

[Ben]

So she, like, crinkles up, like, one of her nostrils because she's, like, so annoyed. So Sutton's like, when we were talking over there before and Rachel came up to us, it was like, as soon

[Erica]

as she sat down, I felt like I just didn't Exist.

[Ben]

And it just. It really hurts my feelings.

[Erica]

She goes, well, I'm sorry that your feelings were hurt. And I'm also sorry that you interrupted a very good conversation with Valerie. Stephanie.

[Ben]

What's her face over there? Great conversation.

[Ronnie]

Are you. Are you really sorry? Are you. Are you sorry? Are you. Are you really sorry? I'm sick.

[Dorit]

I'm sorry I said it.

[Ronnie]

I see it right now. Well, then it seemed like you're that sorry. I mean, I don't know, but it didn't feel like sorry, so I don't know. Try it again.

[Erica]

What would you like me to do to prove to you how sorry I am that I hurt your feelings, Saturn?

[Ronnie]

Well, if we're gonna build a friendship, I need to be able to say that you hurt my feelings. Okay.

[Dorit]

Oh.

[Erica]

Oh, you did. And I gave you my apology. And what would you like me to do? In addition to the apology, there's something else you'd like me to do. Would you like me to refill the Bugles?

[Ronnie]

Okay, so you're mad because I told you you needed to do. You're mad at me because I needed to tell you something.

[Dorit]

And she's like, okay, bye. Bye. Goodbye. Good boy.

[Ronnie]

Boy. And she just walks off. It's like, weirdo. Good for her for not giving Sutton her big pre finale fight that she's trying. This is just ridiculous.

[Ben]

And she knew what it was. That's why she had that. That look on her face, like, really? What's this? You want to talk about now, Sutton?

[Ronnie]

Yeah.

[Ben]

So Dorit tells us when Sutton came

[Erica]

and looked me in the eye, she had the audacity to say that I should apologize to Coyle for not speaking to her since Italy. And at that point, I knew, geez, she's gone. I don't have the tolerance or the patience for it anymore.

[Dorit]

I am.

[Ronnie]

So. Sutton's just on the dance floor like, oh, my God, she has lost her mind. She has lost her mind. So sudden.

[Ben]

So she. Sutton goes back to Kyle's side.

[Sutton]

What happened? What happened over there? What happened?

[Ronnie]

Get a life. My God.

[Boost Mobile Advertiser]

I know.

[Ben]

And then Skyler gets on the mic, and he's like, I'd like to invite all the Virgos to the dance floor. We're going to cut the cake. Oh, my God. There's cake for the Virgos. Come up here. Virgos. Virgo cake. Cake of Virgos.

[Ronnie]

I don't really eat much, so I just have stem cells being brought out with sparklers on them. But you guys can have cake.

[Ben]

You guys. And now a very special performance. From Xander. Xander, you have the mic.

[Ronnie]

I love that.

[Ben]

I was like, what is going on with this wannabe Coachella guy?

[Ronnie]

Xander guy. Is she banging Xander? I hope she is, because he's at least hot. But, God, what a himbo. He gets up there and he does the. I love when, like, singers try to, like, sing Happy Birthday. It's always hilarious. This is not karaoke. Please stop it. Okay? Just do it like everybody else. Happy Birthday. Like, throwing it, you know, nobody needs to hear your special skills. Happy Birthday. But he tries to do the singer version.

[Sutton]

He's like.

[Ronnie]

It's like, girl, you could. You didn't even have your happy Birthday key. Come on, Mojave.

[Ben]

I know. Yeah, yeah. He starts off trying to find his key.

[Erica]

He's like,

[Ronnie]

Still gotta get in.

[Ben]

When anybody else is singing, everyone knows that if you're a professional singer, you still have to sing Happy Birthday in a very blah way. And the way that you signal that you are a professional singer is that you harmonize with the final note of the song. So when everyone goes, happy birthday. Happy birthday. While everyone goes to you, as the professional singers go to you, they harmonize. That's how they're like, yes, I am professional. I know what I'm doing.

[Ronnie]

Just add it in there at the second. Yeah. Don't jerk off during the whole song. Just put it there. Just give a little instant splurt there at the end.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Ronnie]

But, yeah, it's like, happy birth.

[Dorit]

Erica's like, oh, we're back.

[Ronnie]

So Rachel's like, I hate my birthday because that means I'm getting older. But my mind and my body are completely different age than my actual self. I'm like, Javier, to be myself. So Jennifer jumps in the pool, and then Skyler comes with her and like, oh, my God. Jennifer Tilly, I love you so much.

[Dorit]

So much.

[Ben]

[Ben]

so now we go to Sutton's house, and she sits in her kitchen. I love. Sutton. Walks into her kitchen, and she has, like, a dog that's, like, in a crate. And she looks at the dog, she goes, hello. And then she goes over to her table and just love. Like that. She treated the dog like it was someone who's working at a bank. Hello, I'd like to talk about making a deposit.

[Dorit]

Hello?

[Ronnie]

I parked in the handicap. I'm just gonna be here for a second. That's okay, right? Okay, let's get to it. Dog's just like, what the hell, lady? She's eating cat poop.

[Ben]

It was just so cold and clinical to your own dog. Hello. I cracked up. I cracked up so much. So she sits down. I'm like, I wonder where she gets it from. So she gets on FaceTime with Reba, and Reba has. Reba is basically like. So I saw that film Edward Scissorhands, and I said, give me the one that Kathy Baker gets, because she literally has Kathy Baker's hairstyle from that movie that Edward Scissorhands gives her.

[Ronnie]

It's like, did you get a haircut, Mother? She's like, I just slept on it. I've slept on my side and woke up, and here I am.

[Ben]

So I put on a. I put on a red lip and a new haircut. An asymmetric bob. You like it?

[Ronnie]

Don't put on hairspray before you lie down. I. I should have known better, but dang it. What's going on? Sutton? She's like, well, we went to Italy, and the house we stayed in was old, had a huge theater, and we saw two tenors and a soprano. And her mom's like, Jesus,

[Erica]

tell your

[Ben]

friend Xander that that's Puccini.

[Ronnie]

Yeah, Helmo Javi. Tell Mo Javi Hot Buns.

[Dorit]

He.

[Ronnie]

He could learn something from Puccini, right?

[Ben]

Yeah. What's the name of Xander's band? Mojave Mojave Son.

[Ronnie]

Mojave Mojave Black or something.

[Ben]

So son's like, okay, well, thank you for seeing opera, Mother. You know you are being televised right now. Okay. There's been a lot of drama in this friend group. Mother, please don't Do Death of a Salesman monologue. I mean, drama very seriously.

[Ronnie]

I have sold. Sold shoes. I can no longer take selling shoes, Mother. Don't go to the basement again, okay? This is not Death of a Salesman. Stay here.

[Ben]

No Pacini, Mother. No Puccini.

[Ronnie]

That's Death of a Salesman, the musical.

[Erica]

Well, honey, what am I supposed to

[Ben]

do if you won't give me drama or opera?

[Erica]

She's like, don't do anything.

[Ben]

This is not an audition tape, okay? Dorit has not been nice lately. Reba's like, well, you know, I thought you'd be used to that, being my daughter. But when your father died, I was pretty upset. And that might be where Doritos right now, she's maybe going through the motions, but she's not in touch with how she's coming across to people. Kind of like you your whole life.

[Ronnie]

Well, she was not very nice, and she really hurt my feelings the other day. And she goes, are your feelings that shallow, Sutton? I mean, come on.

[Ben]

Good Lord, I loved this.

[Ronnie]

How did Reba become a national hero? Like, I remember Reba at first. People were like, f this woman. Now I want Reba to run for president. Like, I love her. My Sutton just is like, we're on television, mother. She's like, yes, mom, I am tired. My son just moved across the country. She goes, oh, yeah, that's right. Good for him. Finally got out,

[Ben]

by the way, when. When Reba, like, says these stinging things, Sutton really has a look of a cat that got squirted in the face with a water gun. Oh, get off the counter. Fine, Mother.

[Ronnie]

She just keeps doing it over and over. She's like, well, she didn't ask me, you know, and she didn't ask me about that. And I've been in her corner. She asked me about my son. She asked me about my son leaving me. And she goes, well, she didn't mean it, honey. Like, she's writing a memoir.

[Ben]

And then Reba goes, oh, please. So just when Dorit thought Reba was on, you know, Dorit was like, see?

[Erica]

Even her mother's on her side.

[Ben]

Then she goes, oh, please. Who does she think she is, Pacini? Mother, I think that that needs to

[Ronnie]

be on Dorit's book cover, like, where they give quotes of other authors who think they're fabulous. It's like, this book really made me feel unburdened by, you know, Kate Smith. And then he gets to Reva. Oh, please, Reba. Oh, please.

[Ben]

Sutton goes, and she's having her quote unquote launch party. I'm doing air quotes, mother for her book, even though there is no book. So I'm just calling it a photo launch party. And we see a flashback to Dorit

[Erica]

telling everyone, everyone, I want to invite you all to my release party. I'm revealing the COVID of my book. It is now called unburdened, but the

[Ben]

original name of it was.

[Ronnie]

And they're just all looking at her like the release of your book cover. What the hell? Son's like, I don't think I'm gonna go to that party. You think that's okay if I'm not gonna go? Of course that's okay. You don't want to go, don't go. But I've barely begun to even be alone in this house. I need to get.

[Ben]

Get used to it.

[Ronnie]

I need to start being a little more so that I can get used to being alone. I don't want to be alone. I don't want to be alone, so I need to be alone. Does that make any sense?

[Ben]

You have so much to learn, starting with Puccini, I have to say, because someday you'll be facetiming to your child and singing Puccini so you don't have to listen to their stupid complaints about the world.

[Ronnie]

Oh, honey, I've been waiting for this moment when finally you get to spend time with the person that everyone else has run away from their entire lives. You.

[Erica]

I just.

[Ben]

I haven't gotten used to that. I haven't really gotten used to that quiet place yet. Oh, well, you gotta watch out for those aliens. You want me do my alien impersonation? Mother, you've been watching popular movies.

[Ronnie]

Mother. Okay, stop it. That was the alien scene. Pacini in Death of a Salesman. Okay, I gotta go.

[Ben]

Son's saying she dropped off James her. Her son. And so she, like, you know, it's really sad and, you know, her empty nests, since she hasn't really registered that she has an empty nest yet. She's like. She knows. She can see. It's like, look, there's. She sees. She's alone. She sees the empty rooms. She sees Dreyfus right there in the living room. But she doesn't quite feel like she's on empty nest just yet, so she's getting there. So we're hoping that David Leisure will pop in by and really help sell the. Sell the concept to her.

[Ronnie]

Oh, wait. I just got a text. It's from Richard Mulligan. Can we just be friends? Okay, well, I have been friend zoned by the empty desk guy, so. Okay.

[Ben]

It's Official mother. Hold on. There is a. There's a surly nurse at the door named Park Overall. She says her name is Laverne. That we don't really understand what's going on.

[Ronnie]

So with this fun empty nester thing supposed to start. It's gonna be fun, right, Mom? It's gonna be fun in about five years. Five years. But you're gonna start doing stuff to enjoy yourself, since you'll have less responsibility, you know, hopefully it's maybe classes on being less of a little shithead, so people will actually want to hang out with you some more. But I like being a mother. Says, well, you're still a mother, but you're also suddenly, unfortunately, so you're your own unique person, and that's what you need to work on. Okay.

[Ben]

Thank goodness for my business. Thank good. Thank God I did that six years ago. I'm like, it's closed, right? Like, right. That's closed.

[Ronnie]

Yeah. What is she talking about? We need to look this up, because

[Ben]

what was this archival interview they inserted in here? She's like. Because I'd really be lost without it. I'm like, I have bad news for you. This is someone who's been checking on their store because it's not there anymore.

[Ronnie]

She really hasn't been there. Well, she has Sutton Green Label, so maybe she just moved it all to

[Ben]

online, because she does have that. That's actually true. She does have her. Because she had that fashion show that Kathy bumped into the model.

[Ronnie]

And so, yeah, the last thing on her store is a girl in pajamas. And they're not, like, even steamed. They're like, really wrinkly, ugly pajamas. And it's the sudden concept 64 weeks ago.

[Ben]

So, yeah. So, yeah, so she's just like, thank God for my dogs in my store. They were more fulfilling than children ever were in the first place. I'm just gonna. Someday I'm just gonna stand at the top in the world and take in that view. Okay, Sutton. So now we go to Rachel's house.

[Ronnie]

So I'm looking at Sutton's website now, because I want to see what she's doing. It's important to me to know. Her website is called Sutton Brands, and it's a picture of Sutton on the couch. And then there's. It's just all Sutton. Sutton's the model for everything. It's Sutton in a jogging suit, and then three different GIFs of Sutton, like, posing, modeling her own little jogging suits. And then there are T shirts with her phrases on them. There's a lot of Name Em shirts, and that's it. And, oh, no, there's also a sweater that says Snow Babe that has another model, but otherwise it's just Sutton modeling Name Em hats and stuff like that. So, yeah, you're basically Bill Gates.

[Ben]

Wow. Yeah, she basically future Jeff Bezos. So Erica. We go to Erica's house. I'm sorry, Rachel's house. Erica comes over. Which, honestly, if I were Erica, I'd be a little annoyed.

[Dorit]

I'm like, I was just here last night. You couldn't come to Hancock Park. Geez.

[Ben]

But.

[Ronnie]

Well, I would have taken you to restaurants, but no one allow you in because you keep. Keep diamond dashing. So we're just stuck at my house. You don't have to pay here.

[Dorit]

Oh, thank God. All right. Do you enjoy your party?

[Ronnie]

I did. The happiness I felt, I just looked at my friends. Look at my face. Look how happy it is.

[Ben]

Like, how did I get so lucky to have, like, a friend who could wear a fedora and sing Happy Birthday in ways we never even knew they could be sung? Like, I'm dead. It's amazing.

[Dorit]

Well, you're a good friend to everyone in this group, including Mr. Reed, who's letting us have it.

[Ronnie]

She didn't let you have it. You let her have it. What, are you guys rewriting history episode to episode? So Rachel's like, oh, God, we need to talk about that. You know, like, with the shopping and the spending. Like, we all fucking shop. So, like, I wasn't exactly like, oh, my God, you're spending so much money in the Hamptons. Like, who doesn't? Like, hello, we're on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. It's not what we're supposed to do.

[Dorit]

Well, but the thing is, when we go through separation, the first thing we think about is always the money.

[Ben]

See, I don't. Because, like, my situation is different. And, like, that isn't where my mind goes first. I think of, like, my vintage Dior. Like, what happens then? I think about the Kaleidoscope in Sedona. Like, what happens with that? I think about, like, slippers I got that I gave to Ka. I think about Ka's, like, moisturizer. Those are things I think about first. I don't think about the money because, honestly, like, really wealthy.

[Ronnie]

Yeah. She's like, I don't think about that because I'm rich. So. And I die every day, and then I inherit all my money all over again. Like, I become richer every day.

[Ben]

Yeah. So Rachel's like, I don't want to judge her based on her spending or lateness. I mean, her lateness is like her latest. Like, she's got to work on that. Like, for sure.

[Dorit]

It's like, yeah, ladies is not just I'm late at least in the time management or I don't care about anybody else or I. That's is it like a mad everyone and they're out to get me. You know, things like that.

[Ben]

Well, you think she is. You think that's it? You think it is that.

[Dorit]

Well, I can only presume she's overwhelmed because apparently we can't say erratic anymore, so we got to say overwhelmed with the kids and a marriage v up and all that. You know, I see a lot of fear in the re. Rightly so. Your whole world is upside down with legal issues, thoughts of, how am I going to pay for all this? How's it going to turn around? Cuz PK's not going to go easy on it. He's stolen because he knows all the tech. He's got a lift up into a frenzy, and he loves it. He loves it.

[Ronnie]

So isn't that why you should be kind of nice to her? I mean, look, the whole, like, Dorit is late. Yes. The Erica's always going to have me on that one. Dorit is an asshole for being late. So if it's just about that, just make it about that. So Rachel's like, well, at the end of the day, you get dead people for dead people. It's a lot. And my part of my job, like his newer friend, like, maybe I should go deeper with Doritos. You know, maybe I should be like, are you okay? Because you were late. But, like, I'm gonna go to a book party and you're coming with me, right? You're like. Because if Kyle doesn't go, like, she'll expect that. But if you don't go, it's gonna be a thing.

[Ben]

And so Rachel's like, dark like, yeah,

[Dorit]

it's gonna be a thing.

[Ronnie]

Yeah, it's gonna be a thing. Yeah, she's gonna be crazy.

[Dorit]

It's gonna still be a thing. It's gonna be a thing. I'm just gonna be a thing.

[Ben]

It's gonna be a thing.

[Ronnie]

Here's the thing here.

[Dorit]

Yeah, she'll probably be mad at me. Do I call her?

[Sarah Gibson Tuttle]

Yes.

[Ronnie]

Like a no show. That would destroy her. She would be gone. She would. She wouldn't even be bones. There would just be ashes. She would be destroyed. She would be obliterated. Just like, just acid on her. Just start her on fire. Obliterated.

[Dorit]

She would immediately say, I'm sad with Kyle. Why am I doing that?

[Ben]

It's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, she will. She will.

[Dorit]

Great. But I'm gonna do it. That's exactly what I want her to know.

[Ronnie]

And you are.

[Ben]

But.

[Ronnie]

So now we see it's the evening and Bose is going on a little

[Sutton]

mommy daughter date that's totally not pre planned at all. Everybody, here's my completely natural romance storyline.

[Ronnie]

Let's get to it.

[Ben]

We brought you to a restaurant that was as close to the spelling of

[Erica]

your name as possible.

[Ben]

It's boa. They got just one letter off on the Alphabet and before circling back to the front, but that's okay. So they walk in and she's like, oh, I'm excited for a mother daughter date. And guess what? It's not just that. They walk into a back room and the door opens and there is Kaylee,

[Ronnie]

Kitty there in a big jacket.

[Ben]

And everyone's there, though. All the families are there and everyone has their smartphones out. I'm like, part of me is kind of like, can everyone put their phones down? Can like, you just enjoy this for a moment? Because I'm like, it's being documented pretty effectively.

[Ronnie]

I'm not. I don't. I don't watch Bravo like this. I'm getting my own video. So this totally not planned by Bose at all. Keely is some out of work actor from San Diego. He did not rent out Bo. He did not rent out boa. Sorry.

[Ben]

Yeah, I'm not buying this. You got engaged at the bank of America? No, at BOA Steakhouse. He. He's there. Look, his plugs filled in, which was nice.

[Ronnie]

You call it boa or boa? I call it boa. You know, I'm not rich. Oh, it's boa because it's all caps. So I thought it was boa.

[Ben]

Well, no, you could. Well, that just means you're supposed to say boa.

[Ronnie]

That's like, mom, you don't have to text the restaurant like that. No, it's.

[Sutton]

It's called boa.

[Ben]

Either way, this is the. It's. It's an engagement. It's very nice. He's like, you look great. Love your. Love your lips. Love your eyes. Love your smile. Love everything about you. She's like, oh, but you said you were in San Diego.

[Ronnie]

It's like, well, get used to that.

[Ben]

On our first date, I knew there was something different about you. On our third day, you asked me to go to Ghana. I said, are you sure? But I knew then in Ghana that I was not gonna be Ghana. See what I did there? This is something special. And that you're someone I could cross to the finish line with. I can't wait to do forever with you. So will you marry me? Well, of course I will.

[Ronnie]

Will you be my retirement plan?

[Sutton]

It's like, oh, my God, of course.

[Ronnie]

And so everybody claps and Lael cries watching her inheritance go down the drain. And Bose is like, oh, God.

[Sutton]

You know, I think about this moment, dreaming about it. Envisioning how I'd be during it. Stoic and fabulous and laughing. But all I want to do is cry. I can't believe I'm here. I've allowed myself to dream. And look what dreaming brought me. This oddly rugged man, Keely, who's already

[Ronnie]

spent half of my money.

[Sutton]

I can't wait. This was like lightning striking.

[Ronnie]

Yeah. And you were standing right in the path of it. What are you doing?

[Ben]

You know when lightning strikes twice sometimes you gotta say like, that's not like. I think the first time's enough. I don't want the lightning to strike a second time.

[Ronnie]

Yeah. Who wants lightning to strike twice? You know, it's not good. It's usually not good. Although we did get electricity from it.

[Dorit]

We.

[Ronnie]

We got be totally fire.

[Ben]

Fire. And David. David Copperfield backgrounds. So booze.

[Ronnie]

It's.

[Ben]

It's actually a very nice scene.

[Erica]

And

[Ben]

Bose is just like very happy. And she's like. She's like, there's so much to look forward to. So now we go to Kyle's house. Which is not one of the things that's on the list to look forward to going to Kyle's house. And Kyle is, in an effort to remind us that she has been in the Halloween franchise. Has her face. Face in a Michael Myers esque mask the entire scene.

[Ronnie]

Doing a salmon sperm facial. Yeah. So she's not making salmon this year, but she's still putting their sperm on her face. Kyle has a real salmon kink. So Portia and Alexia come in. They're like, oh, my God, I'm getting married, Bob.

[Sutton]

Oh my God. You're getting married?

[Dorit]

Yeah, I'm getting married.

[Sutton]

Oh, my God. Her big day is four days away. She's gonna be a wife. It's unbelievable. I look at her and I'm like, how is that possible? You're still a baby. It's like looking at one of Mauricio's dates.

[Ben]

How do I get my face? How do I get my face to look like yours? That's why I'm wearing this Michael Myers mask all 24 hours. I know you're supposed. I was supposed to only do it for 13. 13 minutes. But what if I do it for all day long? All day long. My face will be young. The substance. So Jen, the assistant comes in and she's like, hi, I'm Jen. I have a lot of things to go over with you. She's like, I'm supposed to go to a thing for to reach night, but, like, honestly, it just feels weird to go when you're, like, barely speaking to someone, right? She's like, yeah. And you have so much going on right now. Like, there's the. The salmon sperm facial you're doing. Then I think you have to look for a remote later on. Yeah, you've got a lot going on. I love that.

[Ronnie]

You've got so much going on. She's got a salmon skin facial, sperm thing on. A sperm thing on her face. So she's like, yeah, I'm just gonna

[Sutton]

text her and let her know I'm not coming. But, like, even that's weird because, like, we're not even texting.

[Ronnie]

Maybe I'll text PK and have PK Dexter.

[Ben]

So Kyle's like, over the last 10 years, I've always felt like I stood up for dorit, and I've defended dorit. And they give Kyle a very complimentary montage.

[Ronnie]

They sure do that.

[Ben]

When, you know, Kyle has defended Dorit in the past. But this was all before Kyle announced out of nowhere that she wasn't close friends with dorit. Which is, by the way, the reason why that was such a crazy thing to say is because. Because we'd witnessed this montage in real time. And so the montage suggests that they actually are good friends. And so it's that disconnect that poisoned everything afterwards.

[Ronnie]

And some of these clips they put in there are just bullshit, too. And they're, like, amending history. Like, they're. Look how Kyle stood up for Dorit during puppygate. Kyle was the one who made puppygate a big deal. She's the only one who made that a big deal to get vanderpump off the show. So she wasn't defending dorit. She was antagonizing a situation and ruining a friendship so that she could get rid of vanderpump. Come on. With these editors. I've been watching this show.

[Sutton]

You can't trick me, Keely. So she's like, yeah, I want to support her, but, like, you know, like, you know, I feel like all the support and being a good friend to her, like, seems so Unimportant now. Like, I mean, if she's forgotten all of that, then, like, why am I gonna go to this party after everything that happened?

[Ben]

So now we go to Amanda's house.

[Ronnie]

Do you think she should have gone to Dorit's thing or do you think she's being an.

[Ben]

I think they. I think with. It's a tough one because honestly, I think they're in an active fight for sure. And this is, like. It is kind of a party. It's a party for the COVID of her book. So that just feels so stupid. But, you know, I think there's a way we can be like, okay, we're going to support.

[Ronnie]

We'll.

[Ben]

We'll support you. We'll come in and then we'll leave. Because they know that they're going to bury the hatchet at some point. If anything, I actually think Erica has more of a leg to stand on with this because Kyle is just so petty. I think, like, Erica was deeply offended when Dorit said that Bose has supported her more than anyone else in this group ever has.

[Ronnie]

And, well, she was saying this year, though, she said, bose has been more supportive to me this year than you guys.

[Ben]

Did she say this year?

[Ronnie]

Yeah, I think. Pretty sure. But go ahead. You know, I did. I didn't mean to interrupt you, but I. Erica.

[Ben]

If I were Erica, I would, like. I feel like I would be. I think it was like somehow it just felt like it hit a little deeper on towards Erica. But, yeah, I don't know. I. I think they probably should have just gone and just said hello and then left sudden. Has the. The worst excuse of all. Like, suddenly that just made up a fight. So that way she couldn't go. But yeah, I think you go for five to 10 minutes, you say your hellos and then you leave early.

[Ronnie]

Well, at the very least, like, go. And then you could say, God, even when I wasn't happy with you, I went to your stupid book cover signing. You know, I think by not going, they're just dumping dorit. I think that they're just like, okay, Dorit's done. We'll get rid of Dorit with this one. Because they're always trying to get rid of somebody. Every year this, like, who are we going to get rid of? And I think it's Dorit's turn. And they're like, we're done with her and we're all gonna unite and just not shoot with dorit. And then we'll get rid of Dorit, you know, but. And it's Shitty. So Kyle, you know, Kyle makes her decision. So now we go to Amanda's house, and Eddie is just lying on the living room floor because he's poor and so he doesn't get a couch. And then Amanda is eating, and she's like, I wasn't gonna go to this thing for Dorit. And he's like, the book launch quote unquote. She's like, yeah, like, I guess you have to actually, like, write a book to call it that. So more of like a reveal for the COVID of the book. Like, you know, like how I had a picture for the COVID of my

[Dorit]

book

[Ben]

and he's like, so you going to go? She's.

[Erica]

I'm like, in, like, a weird position because I don't feel obligated to go at all. And I don't owe her this or feel like I need to go, but there's a small part of me that wants to be a woman who supports women. Cuz, you know, Dorit's been horrible to me this whole summer. She made it very hard. I mean, she even called me a wimp through Sutton's body at my own manifestation party. But I want this stream of revenue for her, and I'm happy for this woman that made my summer absolutely terrible. I'm happy for her that she can earn at least, you know, $35 a

[Ben]

week with this book.

[Erica]

So I'm gonna support her now.

[Ronnie]

She goes, I'm happy for her. I'm such a good person. Oh, God. So then she's like, I'm gonna go. You know, she's like, if the vibes are bad, I'm gonna come home. And he's like, well, in the eternal words of my father, don't be the one to start it, be the one to finish it, girl. She's like, hallelujah. So then we go to Bose and Rachel getting ready, and then we go to Sutton's house, and she's just at her kitchen table, and so she FaceTimes Bose, and she's like, like, well, you look pretty.

[Dorit]

Well.

[Sutton]

What are you doing? Where are you at?

[Ronnie]

I'm at home.

[Sutton]

Why are you at home?

[Ronnie]

I'm not coming. I'm not coming. I'm staying home in solidarity with all of the vending machines that have quarters stuck in them and nobody to help them.

[Ben]

The way I was spoken to at Rachel's was not nice.

[Erica]

I understand she's highly stressed, and I

[Ben]

don't want to be part of the problem. And I, of course, want to talk to her because I don't Want to sever our friendship. And I think.

[Erica]

Think if I went. If I went to not, it could

[Ben]

just injure it further. And Bose is like, okay, like, Bose is definitely not fighting for this. Sutton's basically saying, you know, that part

[Erica]

of the work I've been putting into myself this year is respecting myself, as well as finding new and interesting ways

[Ben]

to start fights with people and then get mad at them, that they were angry at me during that fight. So I don't know. I'm afraid if I go to Dorit's party, I find myself in a reactive position.

[Ronnie]

Whatever. This is a reactive position. This is. This is being actively mean. So then Bose is like, well, this

[Sutton]

isn't a good look for Sutton. I mean, at the very least, come support Tariq. You know, she's always shown up for her, even when they weren't in the best of places. I mean, why not show up for her, Drink some champagne, eat some hors d'. Oeuvres. I mean, girl already paid for them, might as well eat them. What the hell?

[Ben]

Seriously? Free food? Come on.

[Ronnie]

So I'm emotionally vulnerable right now. Oh, shut up. So now we go to Gravitas, a members only club in Beverly Hills, and it's Dorit's book cover reveal party.

[Ben]

Could you imagine being a member of a club called Gravitas? I just can't. Especially. It's in Beverly Hills. You want me to think there's such a thing as Gravitas in Beverly Hills? Come on, get over yourself. You're. You're a club called Gravitas, and you're hosting a party for Dorit's book cover for a book that's not even out yet. Or written.

[Ronnie]

Well, that takes Gravitas, if you think about it.

[Ben]

Yeah, I guess it does. Big Gravitas.

[Dorit]

Well, it's been a long time since I've had something I can celebrate, and

[Ronnie]

I'm very excited for tonight.

[Dorit]

Very, very excited.

[Ronnie]

And she's talking about how before pk, she was a woman, she had an established fashion career, and she put everything on hold for that uncooked croissant.

[Erica]

But now it's time for me to get back into the workforce so I can support me and the kids.

[Ben]

The workforce, ma', am, you are not going to work at, like, a Ford factory, okay? You're not going up to Lansing. Workforce. You're right. You had someone else write a book for you, as is your right as a celebrity. No pun intended. And you're putting out some stupid autobiography that's gonna be here one second. Gone in another. And you're acting like you're Rosie the riveter. Come on, Dorit.

[Ronnie]

So funny. But I do like that. Dorit is like, you know what?

[Dorit]

This is a new me. A new me who supports children. And that's why I wear shoulder pads.

[Ronnie]

Like she's wearing in everything we see. That's related to the book. She's wearing gigantic, like, football size shoulder pads. It's so funny. It's like in the book. The book, book. The COVID of her book. And in the outfit today, she's like, it's unburdened.

[Dorit]

And the theme is shoulders. Because when you're unburdened, you have less on your shoulders. So now I have more on my shoulders. Does that make sense?

[Ronnie]

No.

[Erica]

I developed very large shoulders carrying the lunchbox to work very heavy.

[Ronnie]

So Rachel comes in. She's like, you are fabulous.

[Dorit]

Really? Thank you, baby. Because I've got to tell you, Rachel, I'm hanging on by a thread.

[Erica]

Tomorrow I'm supposed to pick it at the factory.

[Ben]

So Rachel's like. She's like, I'm also hanging by a thread. I'm on fire right now. Like, literally. Is there an extinguisher I need to be put on me? I am in flames. Be careful. Like, you have about 30 seconds to get out of this building before it all goes up in an inferno, because I am on fire.

[Ronnie]

I don't even want to talk to you about it because it's your night, But I'm just gonna sit here and, like, burn to death in a corner. So just, like, watch me perish. It's like, totally fine. No, tell me about it. Okay, fine. This is where I'm at. I wore these sparkles intentionally because, like, they represent fire and I'm dying.

[Dorit]

She's like, what is it? What is it?

[Ronnie]

Oh, and she holds up a Chanel do not disturb clutch. She's like, yeah, do not disturb. So do you want to disturb me so I can tell you? Okay, I'm getting ready to go an hour ago, and my phone starts blowing up. Blowing up, up, blowing up. I tell you. Like, I don't even follow my ex. But then everyone's like, did you see what he posted on Social? Apparently it's her birthday day after mine. And he posted, wait for it. Happy birthday, my love. Oh, my God. Can you believe that a man would post that to the love to his love on her birthday? Swear. Swear to God.

[Dorit]

Stop it.

[Erica]

Stop.

[Ronnie]

Swear to God. Stop. Swear to God.

[Ben]

Stop.

[Ronnie]

Swear to God.

[Erica]

Stop.

[Ronnie]

Put me out. Put me out.

[Sutton]

Put me Out.

[Ronnie]

I'm on fire. Like, no, seriously, it hurts.

[Erica]

Absolutely not.

[Ronnie]

Like, seriously, it hurts. Just shoot me. Just shoot me, please. Dead.

[Ben]

What?

[Erica]

Die.

[Ronnie]

Should die. Let's kill him. Who? Okay.

[Dorit]

For the world to see.

[Ronnie]

The entire world to see on social media.

[Dorit]

Wait, did I tell all the girls.

[Erica]

Girls in the standout pool.

[Ben]

So Rachel is like, I don't think

[Ronnie]

it's that crazy that you're. You broke up with your husband, and then your husband got a girlfriend, and now he's posting happy birthday to his girlfriend. I don't.

[Ben]

I didn't think it was that crazy at first, but then I think it's the public nature and, like, with the. The boys and. I don't know. I just. I don't know how much the boys know or don't know.

[Ronnie]

Well, now they don't, because, remember, he sat him down with the girlfriend or whatever, Right?

[Ben]

But I think Rachel's probably reacting to, like, let's not rub this in the face of the kids while they're getting used to it.

[Erica]

I'm not sure.

[Ronnie]

Okay?

[Ben]

But my first thought was. My first thought was, like, he is dating her. He's allowed to say happy birthday. But I'm once dorit said out there for the world to see. Then I was like, oh, maybe that's what it is. The public nature of it. But I do like that. I do like that Rachel keeps coming in with these, like, big announcements about something that Raj did, acting like it broke the Internet, like none of us really care.

[Ronnie]

She's like, yeah, like the whole world talking about it. Yeah. I got a call from the queen, and the only reason I can get a call from the queen is because we're both dead. So my dead phone rang. Everyone's talking about it. I don't know. I just feel like Rachel has been divorcing Roger for, like, five years. So the. The way that they're making it sound like this is all just happening right now on the show. I mean, I know that the actual divorce is. But I. I've. I don't know. It's not like I keep up on Rachel news. Like, I don't have a Google alert for Rachel, but I feel like I heard about the Roger divorce, like, a really long time ago.

[Ben]

Yeah, yeah, it was. It was last. It was. It was a. It was a lot. Well, because they first got separated. I mean, they got separated in, I think, 2024, but then the divorce obviously happened last summer when this was filming. And this. It's just been going on for a long time. It's not really been terribly interesting for any of us.

[Dorit]

Us.

[Ronnie]

So.

[Ben]

But ra but it's very interesting to Rachel, and obviously. And so she keeps bringing it up. Like, guys, did you see the latest? I can't believe I'm in this national scandal with Raj. Like, okay, it's a divorce.

[Ronnie]

And she's like, yeah. I mean, is it not absolutely insane that he's dating a Virgo who's a wannabe stylist whose birthday is three days after mine? Like, you know.

[Erica]

Well, I could absolutely see BK Doing the same thing that Roger did. He loves the attention. I'm sure I would feel exactly the same way. Rachel feels sick to my stomach, sort of how sick I feel when I see all the labor infractions happening on the assembly line when I'm at work.

[Ronnie]

Do you know how difficult it is to make a Volkswagen?

[Erica]

I saw one lady get her hand

[Dorit]

sheared off,

[Ronnie]

by the way. PK did just do this, actually. PK just came out with his new girlfriend, and she looks exactly like Dorit. It's crazy. I mean, exactly like Dorit.

[Ben]

It's. I mean, look.

[Ronnie]

I mean, he definitely has a type. Yikes. Wow. Isn't that crazy?

[Ben]

Also, lady, who. Who and why are you.

[Ronnie]

Yeah, yeah.

[Ben]

Why? Why? Why, lady, why? Why are you doing this to yourself?

[Ronnie]

Oh, this is what I've always felt about Dorit too. You know, I don't know. PK is one of those guys like, you marry PK and then you can't wonder why everybody has lost respect for you. Like, every. Nobody is gonna be like, oh, you married PK Must be for love. Nobody. You know, PK really pulls the wool over these people's eyes. I don't know. So now Jennifer comes in.

[Dorit]

It's like, oh, look at. Everybody is so gorgeous.

[Ronnie]

Oh, my God, you. The other night, jumping into the pool with Kai. Kai. Whoa. That was, like, incredible.

[Dorit]

She's so adorable. I felt my ovaries expanding.

[Ronnie]

Is that what ovaries do?

[Ben]

What is an over?

[Ronnie]

I don't know.

[Ben]

I'm like, I'm a gay man.

[Ronnie]

So Amanda comes in and, you know, everybody's like, wow, you look so great, Amanda. She's like, yeah, this is Balmain from this past winter, I believe, or otherwise known as My husband couldn't afford this.

[Ben]

That's.

[Ronnie]

That's the label. It's the label. He's poor.

[Ben]

Dorit introduces them to her publishers, and she's like. Jennifer is like, you are so lucky to have.

[Erica]

Have Dorit telling her amazing story. That was sarcasm. I could do humor.

[Dorit]

I'M very proud. She went from that thing to that other thing, and then she was late to that thing. And it's a short book. I presume this is a brochure. Are you brochure publishers?

[Ben]

Yes. I'm excited to find out about Dorit's life. Let's the we're designing Beverly Beach. Can't wait for that chapter.

[Dorit]

Yeah, When I got the swatches for

[Ronnie]

Book of the People.

[Erica]

I'm very proud of Dorit and this little ceremonial gathering by celebrating baby steps as she's on her way. And usually the last thing you do when you write a book is Photoshop the COVID So she's doing it a little in reverse. But you know, you do you. Good job, gorgeous girl.

[Ronnie]

I don't think Kyle's coming, but it's

[Sutton]

like, oh, hell, Sutton just called me and said she's not coming either. Does nobody respect Free Horse?

[Erica]

Well, I've had three people in our group tell me they're not coming. It's very last minute.

[Ben]

Like, oh, it's like, are you kidding me?

[Erica]

Natalie is sick.

[Ben]

You know, they're looking at her like, is Natalie in our group? Or, okay,

[Dorit]

she got some kind of foot disease from doing splits on the floor.

[Erica]

Coil is tired and overwhelmed. And Sutton just wrote me. After much thought, I've decided not to attend this evening. I want you to have a special night. And after how things went at Rachel's, I think it's best that I stay home.

[Dorit]

Oh, you spoke a little too sharply to her. There is a little bit of a square, but did anything else happen between you two? What happened?

[Ronnie]

She's like, no, just.

[Dorit]

Gee, this is terrible. The only consistent thing about Sutton is her inconsistency. And shame on me for letting her show me so many times that she has no compassion for me.

[Ronnie]

So now we see a flashback scene of Sutton's inconsistencies and her being like, well, maybe you should argue with somebody whose wallet fits.

[Ben]

Yeah, that's classic. It still makes me laugh. So Dorit's like, she sent me that

[Erica]

t the next 30 minutes after the party started.

[Dorit]

So is. Is Erica coming?

[Erica]

It's like, well, to my knowledge, she is.

[Ben]

But then the music is like. And we go to son's house.

[Ronnie]

You know, this looks real bad, okay, because guess who's here.

[Sutton]

Erica.

[Ronnie]

Erica's like, hey, I know this looks bad, okay? But we did not plan this, okay? Hand the Bible. Hand of the Bible, okay? And you know what I'm not gonna do? Lie about the Bible. I'm gonna do it so I did not know that Erica was gonna go. Was not going to Dorit's party at all. So she's like, I texted Dorita I wasn't going.

[Dorit]

It's like, oh, I haven't done any of that.

[Erica]

She's gonna be mad.

[Ronnie]

She's gonna be mad. The horror music was out of control.

[Ben]

Gosh, you know it's bad when Erica's decided to. To scare you. Skip the main party to go hang out with Sutton instead of Kyle.

[Ronnie]

Wow. That is pretty bad. They must have just told them, like, guys, you can't just not shoot. We've. You've done nothing. Especially Erica and Sutton. It's like you guys have brought zero to the season. At least Kyle's been stirring the pot all year. You guys can't just not show up for work, so you're gonna have to shoot at Suttons or something, you know?

[Ben]

Yeah. And. And Erica maybe was thinking, if I go to Kyle's, it'll look like I'm just one of Kyle's minions. So let me go to Sutton and grin and bear it and get through this. So it's a. To be continued. We'll find out what happens next week, which I'm assuming is the finale. That'll be episode 18. So we will see. Yeah. Fun times.
