As the last episode concluded, Gina said she would talk to
Janet for Gamble. So at the beginning of this episode, we see Janet walking
into the restaurant to meet Gina. She seems to think this is going to be a friendly
meeting, but she has no idea… During their conversation, Janet insists that
Chyka started everything, and that Chyka was talking about the same sexual
rumors that Janet brought up. Gina warns Janet that Gamble might take legal
action, and she says she doesn’t like how Janet is treating her new friend.
Janet says in her interview that she doesn’t believe that Gina truly cares
about Gamble. Naïve Janet seems to have had enough, and she walks out mumbling
about a deck of cards, clearly making fun of what Gina cleverly told Andrea
last season…
After three and a half episodes, my long wait is over. I was
wondering when I would see Chyka’s gorgeous husband Bruce, and finally he
appears. Chyka and Bruce are planning a racing carnival, but that’s all I
recall… The conversation that was taking place was rather boring, and I was too
busy looking at Bruce…
Janet and Jackie go shopping for an appropriate golfing
outfit. Apparently, there are many rules concerning the attire on the golf
course, and Jackie is not happy about it. No denim? Come on… Jackie asks who is
coming to the golf course, and Janet tells her about having coffee with Gina.
Then the strangest thing starts to happen… Janet pretends to cry… I assume she
is pretending because I don’t think Janet’s body, at its age, is capable of
producing moisture anymore… Janet says that Gina told her she should have lied
about the rumors she had heard about Gamble… Excuse me? I don’t remember Gina
saying any such thing… Janet says she intends to put the Gamble issue to bed.
Gina has a photoshoot for some publicity shots, the products
of which we have been seeing on Twitter recently. I recognize the fabulous red
dress. The photographer apparently works for Playboy, which becomes evident as
he flirts shamelessly with Gina. But I don’t blame him. Gina looked hot, but
the whole part of her posing on the car was a bit uncomfortable…
Jackie and Ben have dinner with Chyka and Bruce at one of
their pop-up restaurants. Jackie says she has to talk to Chyka about Janet; it
seems she wants to hear Chyka’s side of the story. Chyka still insists that she
was only talking about what was said in the papers, but that Janet brought it
to another level with the sexual rumors. They also seem to think that Janet
wouldn’t flirt with Gamble’s husband Rick because Janet prefers younger men,
but would that necessarily put Rick out of the running? He’s not “young”, but
he’s probably younger than Janet.
The day of the golf game has arrived, and Gamble says she
doesn’t want to feel beaten, so she decides to join them in golfing. I have a
feeling she was pressured into going, however… Chyka and Gamble are the first
to arrive at the golf course, and Chyka apologizes for starting the
conversation about the rumors. She says she didn’t know that Janet was going to
take it that far. I think Chyka knew more than she is letting on, but she’s
being smart and strategic about it. I can’t blame her; I would do the same…
Gina shows up at the golf course in pumps and a dress… I’m having tennis
flashbacks from last season… She says she has a TV appearance after the golf
game is over. Janet says it will be hilarious to watch Gina try to golf in a
dress… So this time Janet is fine with the attire, but last season she found it
to be ridiculous… On the other hand, Janet says Gamble was pushing the dress
code with her short shorts. I don’t know what the big deal was. I’ve seen
shorter shorts. At least it wasn’t Pettifleur who we know likes to go commando…
I must take a moment to bring up Gina walking in flat shoes…
She walked on her toes like a ballerina, as if she were still wearing heels.
It’s as if her feet are permanently locked into that position. What does she
wear around her house? I assume pumps… Gamble can’t seem to figure out the golf
cart… I cannot begin to tell you how shocked that made me… They begin to
“golf”… I put that word in quotation marks because I don’t think many people
would or could call what these women are doing “golf”. They were better at driving
the golf carts, and that’s saying a lot. Maybe they should stick to the
gossiping. They’re better suited to that sport.
After what seemed to be a fun day of poor golfing, you know
there was going to be some fighting… Jackie, the peacemaker, says that neither
she nor Gina were present for the actual lunch where all of the drama started,
and, therefore, they should stay out of it. She suggests that the three
(Gamble, Janet, and Chyka) should talk about it. Once again, in her interview,
Janet claims that Chyka is to blame, yet somehow Chyka has “slithered” out of
responsibility…
Toward the end of the argument, we hear something that I
have never heard on reality tv before. Gamble says that if one ever hears
anything about her, talk about it behind her back; don’t say it to her face… Of
course, this is logically how the world works, but no one ever says that.
Housewives tend to say the opposite, even though they don’t really mean it.
They are always yapping about how they want everything to be said to their
Botox-ridden faces; however, even if that happens fighting and drama ensues.
It’s a lose-lose situation for the housewives, but it’s a win-win situation for
us as viewers…
Gamble and Janet eventually hug it out, and Gamble says that
she hasn’t acted that way since kindergarten… But I have a feeling things won’t
stay this way for long.
Chyka then invites the ladies to a dinner, and she is
somewhat secretive of the details. She says she is confident the ladies will be
fine, but at the same time she is only cautiously optimistic. Chyka’s a smart
lady…
