After returning from Mexico and all the drama with Shannon and David, it's time for a nice, gossip-free dinner with Heather -- right, Vicki?
10189896
Not so much. Vicki spilled the beans about what went down in Mexico and told Heather she was in the wrong for spreading the news about the Shannon/David email.
10189901
"I really love Shannon... She is me 10 years ago." Heather felt like Vicki was taking Shannon's side.
10189906
At the Beadors, the drama seemed to be a thing of the past. It was time to discuss Sophie's upcoming trip to Italy and what pants David's going to wear while he's there chaperoning.
10189911
Over at COTO Insurance HQ, Vicki and Tamra were discussing a very serious topic: "going potty."
10189916
"Going potty? I'm very busy to have to stop, take my pants off and sit down and pee. I don't want to waste my time doing that."
10189921
Lizzie and Christian headed over to their beach house to clean up for their upcoming dinner party. "What I really want for this party is to be very elegant," Lizzie hoped. Ha! More on that later...
10189926
As the guests began to arrive, everything was running smoothly. Shannon and David were enjoying the view of the beautiful Pacific.
10189931
I mean, the beautiful random fire dancers who came out of nowhere.
10189936
Outside, no one was hanging over the balcony, so that's good!
10189941
Inside, things started to unravel...
10189946
Shannon had an urgent matter she needed to discuss with Tamra, so she pulled her aside to chat. "I just wanted to confirm something...Terry Dubrow has called you and said, 'Let's take the Beadors down.'" Tamra replied, "'Let's take them down'? I don't even think that's in his vocabulary."
10189951
Before the craziness went down, Christian did his best to keep the fun up. He toasted to good friends, and that's when things got weird.
10189956
To break the ice, Tamra asked Brooks what his favorite body part on Vicki is. Because "the weather" wasn't available for discussion?
10189961
Brooks replied with "her brain," but no one bought it. So he replied with something else we won't type here. Gross!
10189966
The group had about five full minutes of drama-free eating, but that was long enough, apparently. Tamra checked in with the Dubrows to see if they'd spoken to Shannon since Heather kicked her out of the house. And then she mentioned the "take the Beadors down" comment.
10189971
"What! Me?" Terry replied. Heather was equally aghast.
10189976
Pro tip: If you want to talk about an incident involving other people, make sure said other people are not at the same table. Shannon and David stepped in.
10189981
They seemed to move past the "taking the Beadors down" comment and back to the time when Shannon raised her voice at Heather during her Christmas dinner party. So she apologized one more time.
10189986
And then it came back to the email. A lot of layers to this argument!
10189991
Here's Lizzie in the middle of seriously regretting ever having this dinner party in the first place.
10189996
It wasn't just the 'Wives who got involved...
10190001
...Terry and David were going head-to-head as well.
10190006
It was time to take this argument outside, because "this is not a conversation for dinner." Heather and Tamra stepped out onto the balcony. "Look me in the eyes," Heather said. "Did you ever say anything like that about Terry?"
10190011
Tamra was adamant that she hadn't said anything like that...and that Shannon was drunk.
10190016
Shannon and David joined the others on the balcony. (The balcony of evil?!)
10190021
All the issues came to the surface -- the email, getting kicked out of Heather's house and the "take the Beadors down" comment. Shannon had enough!
10190026
While Heather was defending her side of the story, Shannon had to interrupt. "You have your truth, Heather. And we have our truth. You will never believe our story, and we will never believe yours."
10190031
Vicki and Brooks were so glad this wasn't about them for once.
10190036
By the end of the episode, Shannon was in hysterics. She stormed out of the party after telling Heather she wasn't going to "spin this on her." She yelled as she left the house, "You guys will all see the truth! You will all see the f---ing truth!" I thought the beach was supposed to be relaxing?
