Real Housewives of New York - Season 3 - Episode 7

"New Girl, Old Money"

LUANN

Luann is visiting the newest housewife, Sonja Morgan - ex-wife of John Morgan, heir to the JP Morgan fortune. According to Luann, they are friends and run in the same circles. (insert eye roll here). In the first few minutes, I've got this woman pegged. She is a cougar in every sense of the word. The thing is, she is SO NOT PRETTY. She may have a good body, BUT HER FACE!!! She's a total butter-face. NOT ATTRACTIVE. I'm sure her bank account is how she gets her men. In fact, Luann spots a photograph of Max, the guy Kelly "dated" last season. HA! It's not surprising that Sonja and Luann are friends considering all the stories coming out about Luann's crazy sex life.

SONJA

Yup, I was right. She was married for many years which means she must get a pretty fantastic spousal support payment, not to mention child support for their 9 year old. I estimate that she gets about $60K/month...at least. Not to mention all the property she must have gotten. Ridiculous. She's also addicted to cosmetic surgery. Not surprising.

Luann asks for clothes for donation for the cocktail party she's hosting. Sonja offers her home as a location for the cocktail party. Her housekeeper throws a bunch of Sonja's old clothes in the "elevator" of her townhouse - which is located next door to Martin Scorcese's, btw - and she and Luann go through it all.

JILL

Jill and Bobby are having a slice in NYC. They discuss the "incident" at Ramona's. Jill tells us that she just gave the letter from Bethenny to Bobby but hadn't talked to him about it. OMG. Bethenny was totally right. You cannot win with Jill. She just looks for failure. Bobby says that the letter was really nice and he tells Jill that it's hard to throw away a friendship and that Bethenny admits that she may have missed something this summer and apologized to Bobby. Jill's response: "She didn't write ME a letter." OMG!!! Are you serious, lady?? Bethenny has tried to talk to you and has called and reached out. She wrote Bobby a letter because you BITCHED so much that she didn't call Bobby directly. Now, it's not enough because she didn't write you a letter, too?? Holy Shit, Jill. It's a no win situation for Bethenny. I think Bethenny should just say "good riddance" to Jill and move on. Who needs this drama queen?

Bobby tries to encourage Jill to bury the hatchet. He tells her to do the right thing and it'll come back to her. He's a good man.

BETHENNY

Bethenny is a spokesperson for Pepperidge Farm and they have these street carts that sell sandwiches that Bethenny created. So today, she is there giving out sandwiches. Alex comes by to support Bethenny and they talk. Bethenny tells Alex that she went to LA and her dad refused to see her. That sucks. Bethenny is trying to deal with it and understand that her dad was just not ready to see her. She changes the subject to ask about the Brooklyn Fashion show and Alex tells her it's this coming weekend. So Bethenny tells Alex that she talked to Jill. She tells her that she apologized and gave Jill a note for Bobby until Luann came in and ended it. Bethenny just wants to move on and be happy.

LUANN

Luann and Jill meet up at the park - of course, Luann arrives in a rickshaw because she can't be bothered to walk. Oh Jill, that dress is NOT flattering. I know Jill is tiny in real life, but that poofy short skirt makes her look like she has the widest hips in the world. Jill tells Luann that she's doing some sort of cleanse to forgive anyone who has ever wronged her in her life. Luann gets scared and immediately wants to know if this means Bethenny. Jill says that it's about forgiveness so that she's not holding on to these negative feelings anymore.

Luann tells Jill about a guy she likes. He's kind of young and French. Apparently he's dark-skinned, Jewish and slender. I'm dying to see what he looks like.

RAMONA

Ramona has planned a special evening for her and Mario. Avery is gone for the evening, so she planned something special. They are so great together. Even though she can be super abrasive and I'm still not over all the mean things she said to Bethenny last week, I think she and Mario have such a great marriage and are a great couple. He's younger and kind of playboy looking guy, but he loves that Ramona is a total nut-job and they are clearly still into each other. I love it. Ramona tells Mario that she thinks they should renew their vows. They've been married 16 years and she wants to renew the commitment. He agrees and they go have sex. Gross.

ALEX

It's Brooklyn Fashion Weekend time!! Alex, Kelly and RAMONA are going to walk the runway! Ramona loaned her jewelry to the show. She's backstage and practicing her walk. Jill shows up and she is HORRIFIED at how LOW RENT Brooklyn Fashion Weekend is. I agree that having the meet and greet next to a huge heap of trash is probably not such a good idea, but Jill could've been a little nicer and not so critical. I mean, support your friend. Jill tells us that Luann would have pulled up and then driven away. She wouldn't have been caught dead at that event.

Kelly tells Jill that she was very upset by the email from Jill. Here we go...back to high school. Jill says to Kelly "You told me that you were not friends with Bethenny." Kelly says that she's not friends with Bethenny. Then Jill brings up some stupid "tweet" from Kelly to Bethenny telling her that she's happy for her and wishes her luck. That just pissed Jill off. Kelly spouts some bullshit about PR 101 and PR 102. PR 101 is: "Any press is good press." PR 102 is "Deflation." If you no longer want bad press on you, you compliment the other person and it deflates the situation and people will leave you alone. I see her point. I just think she's an idiot, so it's hard to give her credit.

Ramona walks up and Jill immediately criticizes the necklace that Ramona is wearing and tells her that it doesn't go with the dress. Ramona tells us that she thought Jill was there to support them, but she's jealous that she's not in the show. AND the show begins...

Jill says that the chairs are uncomfortable, she's overdressed and she criticizes every piece that comes down the runway. Who invited her?? Kelly looks like a frickin' football player. HAHA. She agrees with me! HA. She says that the straight across strapless makes her shoulders look like a linebacker. It DOES!! Alex looks great. Jill, of course, has to be negative and criticize. Ramona comes out and has the bulging eyes. Jill says that she looked like an idiot. Who invited Jill? Seriously. Next time, leave her at home. She had NOTHING nice to say.

She bolted out of there with her daughter as soon as it was over. If there aren't any celebrities or "important people" for Jill to be seen with or talk to, it's simply not worth her time. Forget supporting your friends. Talk about no manners.

BETHENNY

Bethenny takes a pregnancy test and discovers that she is PREGNANT! Bethenny is calling Jason like crazy and he's not answering. It's totally cute and funny. Then the automated voice comes on saying "if you'd like to leave a message...." and Bethenny says "this woman is ruining my life right now." HAHA. My sister has that SAME automated woman on her phone and it drives me NUTS! I feel your pain, Bethenny.

She decides to call her best friend, Stephanie, and tell her the news. Stephanie is AWESOME. She's just like Bethenny. Bethenny is freaking out about what the lines/colors mean on the test and Stephanie - in a total monotone voice - says "Your pregnant. Congratulations." LOVE IT!!

JILL

Jill is hosting an event for Kodak for the relaunch of its website. Luann brings Sonja Morgan with her to meet Jill. Kelly shows up and says hello. And, Ramona shows up and starts in. FILTER, Ramona, FILTER. She reminds Jill that she's a business woman and asks Jill why she would pair up with Kodak since it is so antiquated as a company. Jill is stunned. But, Ramona has a point. Kodak is pretty antiquated. It did seem like an odd pairing. But Ramona, why would you say this AT THE PARTY??? Jill says that they are re-vamping the business. So then Ramona calls Jill out for not coming up to them after the fashion show and telling her that she did a good job. Jill says that she was running late and had to get out of there. Kelly walks over and can't believe Ramona called Jill out. Jill said she didn't mean to snub her. Then she tells Ramona that she needs to leave. She asked Ramona to be there to support her and all she did was insult her. Um, Jill, just because you didn't do it to Ramona's face doesn't mean that you were a big supporter of the fashion show. I mean, Jill was rude and critical the entire time...from the moment she stepped out of the car until she flew out of there at the end. HYPOCRITE!

After Jill walked off, Luann and Kelly come over and reprimand Ramona. They tell her how inappropriate she was to bring up the Kodak thing at the party and that Jill is excited and she shouldn't have ruined her night, blah, blah, blah. Ramona tries to defend herself and then tells Kelly that she doesn't understand because she's not a business person. Kelly and Luann just walk away.

Sonja walks into the party and meets up with Kelly and Luann. Jill's first impression is that she thinks Sonja is really pretty. Um, is Jill blind?? Kelly announces that she needs to go to a dinner so she has to leave, per usual. Luann says "It's not with Max, is it?" and then looks at Sonja and says "You know Max." They all chuckle and then Sonja says that she discovered Max. Clueless Kelly didn't know who they were talking about until she said the last name. Wow. Sonja is crazy.

They meet back up with Jill and they start talking about Ramona. Sonja says that she's known Ramona for 20 years. Well, that explains the crazy. I'm sure that before Ramona met Mario, she and Sonja were the biggest drunkest, party girls in NYC.

Ramona runs into Sonja and they catch up and plan a lunch date. Ramona and Kelly start fighting in the middle of Jill's presentation. Ramona finally says "I don't want to talk to you. You have no brain." Then Ramona leaves. Jill tells us that she never thought Ramona would betray her like that and try to sabotage her endorsement deal. Um, it's not always about you, Jill. I think it was about Kelly and Ramona. UGH.

See you next week.
