Tonight was the finale for Real Housewives of Orange County. The episode gathered old and new housewives along with their family and friends for a party. The most interesting moments were when Lynne Curtin’s family arrived and Tamra and Simon fighting.
Why must Lynne pretend that she doesn’t know her kids drink? She knows and allows her daughters to drink. We’ve seen it before on the show when Lynne had a party at her house. The way Alexa and Raquel were acting, strangers could tell they were drunk. But their ditsy mother didn’t alter her actions one bit, she continued to mingle as if nothing was wrong. She stayed away from her daughters avoiding the need to address them. Lynne had the nerve to fault Slade for saying something aloud about the kids being drunk. Alexa was so off the hook that Raquel didn’t even want to deal with her. She wanted to know why she couldn’t drink just one martini. Raquel left because of Alexa which caused extra drama and Lynne barely blinked. Lynne asked Alexa what do we have to do to resolve the problem and Alexa through it right back in her face saying so now you want to be a good mom.
“Lynne needs to parent and stop trying to be a friend,” said Jeanna.
Alexis mother joined the party and I have one question. How did Alexis mom end up looking so trailer parkish while Alexis acts like a natural born glamor queen all the time? Her mother is busted. The plastic surgery helped though.
Tamra talks so much its ridiculous. Some things are just private. She had a fight with Simon in the limo and inside the party she felt the need to let everyone know they were on the outs. Worst of all, Tamra pulls Vicki to the side and starts crying, “my life sucks” she says. She tells her she’s headed for divorce and wants Vicki’s help. Then she kisses Vicki’s ass for brownie points since she’s been dogging her with the other girls.Vicki tells her you gotta stop “this guy” from controlling you, who you talk to, what you wear and how you act. Then they get into the regular debate about Tamra sticking up for Vicki. Tamra continues crying and says how scared she is of Simon then Vicki asks her is he hurting her. Simon hears that his wife is crying and approaches them in the middle of the conversation. Tamra tries to lie saying she wants Vicki and Simon to get along. Vicki says thats not true but clams up. Simon pulls her away trying to calm her down. Tamra went back to Vicki and he left.
Quick Rundown:
Alexis is working for her plastic surgeon and Jim is letting her.
Gretchen is still grateful for having Slade in her life and looking forward to the future.
Vicki and Donn are still faking like they are in love and planning another trip to Turks and Caicos.
Brianna got her own apartment Michael still lives at home and works for mommy (Vicki).
Lynne says that she is getting real. They moved into an affordable condo. Frank is now working for her. Alexa got a license but her parents can’t afford a car for her. She was right when she said she would end up with the short end of the stick…..Raquel always gets everything blah blah blah rant. Raquel still doesn’t have a job but she’s working on her art.
Simon and Tamra sold their house in a short sale, they live separately and Simon has filed for divorce. Ryan got laid off from his dream job.
