It’s frustrating when, on a particularly baroque piece of jewelry,
you find merely a setting in its center. The missing gem in the case of
this broken bauble—episode two of season five of The Real Housewives of
New York City—is the phone call we are told existed between Ramona and
Luann, which was placed annoyingly far away from any video equipment.
And it’s tough to weigh in on this very call without the original
footage, especially when the parties in question are such terrible
communicators when they’re heated. But what we know is this. Last
season, Ramona called Luann a lousy mother, the proof of which was in
the pudding better known as the exploits of her sexually intriguing in a
Kristen Stewart sort of way, artistically inclined daughter, Victoria.
Luann, in turn,This is a really pretty round stonemosaic

Sonja’s party and asked for an apology, and got precisely nothing,
besides the stink eye—or two of them, adorned with lavender eye shadow
up to the brow.
This week, we picked up where we left off with
the series’ two returning warrior titans (I will not abandon the
distinction between old and new cast members until I care to!) battling
out in the open, like heroin-addicted Tompkins Square Park squirrels, or
gladiators from olden times. Ramona met Luann in Central Park and the
two women sat on benches wearing slim jeans and flattering boots,Buy

passion — about a phone call none of us witnessed. We’d heard about this
phone call from Luann, when she dropped by Orsay to give the new cast
members a drive-by version of her one-woman vengeance theater.Ekahau rtls

tried to blackmail her and drag her family down into the gutter, where
rats live, and all the new girls—Carole, Aviva, and Heather—said “Oh!”
And “Yikes” as they stirred their waters, and then the Countess was gone
in a puff of turquoise. Well, this week we got some more tiles to add
to the mosaic.
We know that Ramona called Luann and that the
definition of threaten is up for debate. We know that Ramona likely said
something about how Luann’s son, Noel — who is LOUSY AT FRENCH — hosted
a Weird Science–Risky Business–sounding party that ended up with a girl
passed out on the lawn. We know that, in terms of their communication
styles, Ramona will get prickly and defensive at the slightest
suggestion of anything critical, while Luann’s tendency is to be
naturally condescending and act appalled at anything perceptible as an
attack on her character. Ramona’s point is well taken when she said, on
that bench, to Luann: “Everybody knows who you are.” The truth is indeed
out there when it comes to Luann’s family, as Ramona Singer-Scully
pointed out. Nothing about her kids’ follies is secret; she is a public
figure. But then, Ramona went on. “Everybody knows you’re never home
with your children,” Singer sang. “You fall off tables.” And that gave
Luann enough rope to make a leash. “How dare you,” the Countess
intoned,TBC help you confidently buymosaic

outrage, was, by then, actually basking in her sweet success of getting
Ramona to reprise some of the specifics that had gotten her into trouble
previously.
What these two will never get past is that their
personalities drive each other insane. Ramona is a whirling dervish of
eyes, hair, and things said bluntly, at face value, and Luann has the
decorum of a true secret-keeper. I have no doubt that Ramona said she’d
bring up the Hamptons incident on that call, and that she cannot
identify that statement as a threat. And as for their fragile agreement
about burying the matter and calling a shaky truce, that’s about as
silly of a foreshadow as a character in a movie who is having a bad day
saying, “Gee, at least it’s not raining!” or the three new women at
Orsay agreeing they’d never be mean girls.Zenith manufactures a

And
speaking of the new girls, we must not ignore them! Let us now address
what we learned in the first scene of this week’s episode, during which
Aviva and Heather — who, my friend Nate brilliantly pointed out, looks
like Drew Droege in character as Chlo Sevigny — dined with their
husbands and got along famously. In this scene, the following lessons
were imparted.
