House of Stassi Ep 4&5 Recap · Wicked Messy

• WM_EP15 9-4-26: Hello everyone. We are back after missing a week. Just a short hiatus. Yep. Unfortunately, my sweet, sweet Bailey boy, who you guys have probably seen in our videos, walking back and forth super restless, passed away. So we just took a little break and now we're back. So Bailey, you will be missed. He sure will. He was the best dog ever. He was so sweet. So good. Love you, Bae. Love you, Bailey. Excuse me. I just choked you got choked up. That's okay. That's okay. but yeah, so now we are trying our best to talk about two episodes of House of Stassi. And it's gonna be treacherous because it's yeah. Yeah, guys, so good news. Maybe. We We got a little soundboard. Yes. A little sound calculator. I don't know if you guys can actually hear it. We haven't tested anything. and it's tacky, but I don't care. So if you get annoyed, don't tell us 'cause I'm not That's what we'll do. Okay. All right. So let's kick off. We're gonna start with episode four, staycation from hell. Yes. You know, it's like Stassi has all these people coming that aren't getting along. And she's like, you know, what would really fix this situation? Locking them in a house together. Yep. And seeing who can sink or swim. I know. And I wonder if all these people signing up for this show and being on this show really realize that like you're working with Stassi here and on Stassi's rules and territory and like you're screwed because her the umbrella theme is what's gonna make Stassi's show the best and the biggest hit. And that could mean she's going to sacrifice friendships, things she's saying, conflict she's causing, and here we go. Yep. So she says in the beginning of the episode that she does feel better after her cemetery date with Beau. Yes. She said things are more on track. They're getting better. Quote unquote. She said something like, I truly believe that reality TV solves more issues than it creates. Yes. Which is up for debate. Yeah. But it is something that I've thought about so many times over the last few decades about reality TV, that even though some of it it's like obviously produced some shows more than others, but you're you are forced to like say stuff that's actually bothering you. But that I feel like is the demise of a lot of marriages and relationships because a lot of stuff would get swept under the rug normally, and then they have to face it and they're like, wait, I actually hate you as a person. Marriages for sure. Yeah. For sure. Housewives, they're doomed when they go on that. it's true. For sure. It's a joke. okay, so in the first scene, Beau says he got a bill for six hundred and eighty-four dollars a fraud alert for the groceries that Georgi and Georgia bought. Yep. for Italian, you know that Georgi was buying a whole soda Oreos, Toothbrush, literally. She's like mascara. Their card. Don't worry about it. Yeah. So I just wanted to say that because I thought that was funny. And I just wanted to point out that Georgia is not a lesbian. You are correct. that was definitely seated at this dinner table at Stassi's. And I was like, okay. I don't know where I made that up from, but it's okay squared away now. She could be, you know. Maybe. We still don't know. Yeah. but yeah, so we kick off with Lesbian night and Georgi is speaking with one of the Taylors at one of the bars, and Taylor Strecker, because she's bugging a little bit about Katie. Yeah. she does not want to confront her. Right. But she kind of has to. It seem you know what's interesting? It seems to me like Taylor Strecker doesn't like confrontation. No. And in this scene, she's feel it feels like she's super uncomfortable. And I feel like she is being pushed into having to talk to Katie by production a little bit. They're like, We're halfway through the season, you've done nothing. She doesn't look like she wants to get this off her chest. She looks like she wants to cry. For sure. And I was actually surprised that Georgi was the kind of voice of reason in this scene, being like, Well, I think you have to give Katie the benefit of the doubt. And I'm like, Whoa, who are you, Georgi? Like, this is really odd. Never thought that I would say that about her. I know. It's the only positive thing I think I've said since I've been watching this show about Georgi. And that's probably the last. And that she's good at art Yeah, yeah, yeah. I did this. You're right, you're right. So the second. but she was being really weird in the beginning, talking about like finding a girl and just saying like weird things like, I want a really tall one with like the the ox piercing and I'm gonna climb them like a tree. And then there was like they showed that girl that was super tall. I was like, Can you relax? Like is this like appropriate? I know, she's crazy. Katie walks in and she's all happy and cute. And she says in her confessional that she's having fun filming, but she feels so positive. Yeah. But she does understand how these things work. Right. but she says, regardless, tonight is about Georgi getting her feet wet, yeah, making new friends, and what does she say? So that she can get off Stassi's ass or something like that. Exactly. And she has no idea she's walking into the lion's den. So then we have the actual confrontation with Katie and Taylor. Yeah. and get to that issue between them, which essentially revolves around the payroll comment. Right. And I thought that was it was really aggressive the way Strecker, Taylor Strecker really kind of came in on Katie. And I also kind of got a tinge of like, are you jealous in a way of like making sure that there's some sort of rift so that Stassi and and Katie don't get Close again like they used to. I don't know. I just got that. I tinge of that. Absolutely could not agree more with you. I don't even know how anyone could see it any other way. Right. Like you by the time Taylor got in, Katie was halfway out. Exactly. And she's had Taylor's had years of Stassi complaining about her and Taylor's licking her wounds. And now she's kind of thinking, shit. Yeah. When in reality, Taylor, you literally she was on your payroll, you're on her payroll roll now. Like this is actual reality. Like this is not a comment that like doesn't make sense. It's true life. Right. And it in even so, and Katie has to say this a few times in the next two episodes or so, but Katie just explains it was the not Literal. Right. It's She was talking about her situation with Stassi and it wasn't like I'm attacking your friends. It was if I'm not this, if I'm not that, then I'm not your friend. And I I don't know. Like I can see if she said like Taylor and this person it yeah, it's not It was not calculated. Over the top. Like you said, I think Taylor needed her time to like have something happen on the show 'cause she was being boring with like just being the wife of a pregnant woman. Was it this episode when Katie then said in her confessional maybe she just wanted her fifteen minutes of fame? Yeah, it was. Yeah. I think during that too. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. So you can feel Katie getting more and more frustrated during this argument. But she she keeps it together. Katie does well for someone who's been off TV for a few years. She it's like riding a bike to her. Yeah, that's exactly what I was gonna say to you. Yep. but yeah, they don't really solve anything. I mean, Taylor kind of just agrees and then they just kind of squash it and it is what it is. So yeah. Taylor is pretty much just pissed that Katie called her a yes man and they just, you know, brush it off and that's all we get for now. Yep, absolutely but I will agree. Jealousy is not a good look for Taylor. No, not at all. Not at all. And she has too much to worry about right now. She's about to have a baby, like chillax. Yeah, this is your concern. Right, exactly. Stop it. then we have Stassi and Chrishell Yeah, she's gorgeous from Selling Sunsets. I think so. Yeah. I think so. Selling Sunset or something. One of those shows. Yep. But beautiful, but I do have to say, for some reason, I hope I don't get roasted for this. For some reason, her ankle tattoo really bothered me. I didn't know. And they kept showing it. It was like a vine. It kind of reminded me of like a snake. It was something that I cannot picture on her period. interesting. With her wicked, beautiful outfit and her like stunning heels, and then bam. I wonder if it was like an 18-year-old tattoo that like it didn't even look professionally. Like it looked like a kid tattoo. So it's probably old, because it's probably fading to 100%. Yeah, for sure. She is stunning. Yeah. but So her and Stassi are connecting about reality TV and Stassi is just giving us a little look into the window of how long she's been trying to make this happen. Three years trying to get this show! So this isn't just a job for Stassi. It's literally like a redemption tour. No kidding. Yeah. It's the biggest comeback ever. Absolutely. And then Stassi again makes the comment Beau and I are in a good place. And I just felt like I wrote repeating this over and over. Mm-hmm. I'm like, you can't keep saying it because it seems like it's not real. Yeah. Right. Right. Chill out. But and they're her and Chrishell are having this conversation in this staycation house in Bel Air. So And the owner is obsessed with reality TV and Chrishell says she's so excited you're renting this out because you were on reality TV and she remembers you from Vanderpump. Which I was like, this is so weird how like reality TV I know. Now someone crazy. I know, because look at the real estate, the leasing agent, Chrishell, she was on reality TV too. oh right! Yeah. So this woman's like strictly like reality TV only, which is wild. So wonder if we know. oh gosh. So the next scene is Georgia and Beau making lemoncello That's what I was gonna ask if it was lemoncello, yeah. And it seemed like it, yeah. He said in the very beginning quickly. Gotcha. Okay. We have to talk about something, and I don't know why the internet has not been talking about this. Why did okay. Beau wanted her to wash the lemons with soap and water? Yeah, some people do that. And then didn't didn't he say that he sometimes does that with chicken? Or no. Or maybe that I think that's old housewives, but Yeah. I don't under- I I I don't know. Well I That I think you're supposed to use like baking soda or something and like wash them, but I I mean I just do a quick rinse in my head. I'm like, this isn't really doing anything. I'm just like Yeah, a rinse at the most. Yeah. Soap. Some people are crazy. That that's not it, that's not gonna take all the salmonella away. I know. Jeez. No, it's not gonna take nothing away. Yeah, so what's it gotta cook it! doesn't make sense. But did you notice Beau's shirt? No. wait. It said Gnocchi Yes. And it was a Gucci. Yeah. I was like, that is literally amazing. but when he's taught when he's making the Lemoncello with Georgia, it was just a quick comment, but pretty much Georgia says, if you ever want to have another romantic appointment with your wife, let me know. I love her so much. I literally I wish she had like more airtime, honestly, because she's awesome. Oh! but and then also one more funny thing she said in that scene. Beau does let Georgia know that he thinks it's time to rip the band-aid off and talk to Rob. And Georgia says, rip off the boo-boo. yes, yes, yes. I loved it. my god, I love her. Okay. now we're talking about Georgi and the living situation. Because Georgi is still living with Stassi and Beau at this time. Yep. But we're seeing that it's starting to get super awkward and unclear what Georgi's actually doing at Stassi's. Right. So there are Georgi's pushing back against the idea that she wants to be a nanny. She's like, I moved to LA to build my own life, not become household staff. Mm-hmm. So, you know, the thing is you're a grown woman and if someone is gonna take you in, which there's no shame after a divorce, moving into any friend or family's house for a little bit, right? But you should be doing things that they're not even asking to do. I want to come back to a clean house. Yeah. My baby's fed. Although the other thing is that I I know she has cleaners. I know she has all of that. So I don't really know what she would really have to do. I'm sure there's minimal to do just take care of the kids and wash the kids and like Yeah, but some light cleaning. If it's needed, I'm saying. Like I doubt it's even needed. But like wash the sheets. I'm sure people aren't coming. Whatever it takes. Oh! or maybe why aren't you cooking a beautiful meal every night? 'Cause she's great at cooking. Right. So there you go. Yep. All right, now we have Katie meeting Stassi for some drinks and food. Yep. And Stassi asks how Lesbo night is. She's like, Can I say that? What can straight girls say lesbo? Yeah, I She calls Taylor in the confessional and she Taylor said, I give you permission. Yeah, but that was annoying to me because I wanted the straight answer of like, is that acceptable for a straight person to say lesbo? And she just specifically said, like, well, because you know me, you can Stassi. But I need the facts. I need the facts too. Maybe Taylor doesn't have the facts because she's a late in life lesbian. Right. So Teddy. No, that's true. Yeah, ask Teddy. Real Teddy. And we also find out during this little meetup with Katie and Stassi that they're still not having sex. Her and Beau. Shocker. And she's going around saying we're in a such a good place. No, you're not. Yeah, but if sex means like nothing to her, then she's But to Beau it probably does. Well, right. It does. That was a whole thing. To use Beau's line from a few episodes when she said, I thought everything was great. He said, That's because all of your needs are being met. And I find that to be the same situation with exactly what you just said. Yep. but Katie, the only thing I really want to mention about this scene with Stassi and Katie is the whole Kristina situation resurfaces. Yeah. And Stassi does say Listen, Katie, you just need to talk to her. Trust me on this. And she's giving her that look that a friend can only give you where they can't tell you, but they're trying to give you a heads up. Yeah. Like, trust me, you're gonna get eaten alive by the audience if you don't talk to her. Right. But I also made a note, and I don't know what this note kind of means, but I think Stassi kind of said something in her confessional about like, I didn't realize Katie was gonna be this affected by like them getting upset about the payroll thing and like Taylor and Kristina and like I don't know that just was bizarre to me. Like why would she want two other cast members like against her? Like obviously it's gonna affect her. I don't know. I thought that was very like self centered of Stassi to be like not thinking that Katie would be like upset. And she like obviously went into this I don't want drama. I don't want to deal with what I did on VPR. Right. You know? And it's like Two against one? Yeah. Obviously, she's gonna feel uncomfortable, especially because you're not sticking up for her, Stassi. And I think Katie even said when she started the convo, how is this a thing? How do they even know about it? As in Stassi, how did you bring this up? You're obviously talking crap. I know, right? Yeah. Well, that's what I'm saying. She's the puppet master here. It's like I think these people are like missing it. Right. So Katie is just, you know, sitting there talking to Stassi, wondering, what am I doing here if I'm not wanted? I have. buyers remorse. Yeah. Yeah. And Stassi's nope, you're not going anywhere. Yep. So she pretty much says, Buckle up, Katie, because you're going on the staycation. Yep. And now we have the staycation from hell. Yep. And Rob starts us off by coming in first and then at some point says, Hi, hot stuff to Georgi. And I almost vomited. Yeah. Yeah. I forgot about that. I'm over. Over it. And she was like, Yeah. So Georgi and Georgia find out that they have to room together and Georgi is pissed. I just wanna point out, I've been dying to say this. Yeah. We had a discussion a few episodes ago about how I don't think there's an extra room in Stassi's house. Right. And I believe that that's probably organic. This is for the camera. So set up, yeah. Yeah. Like when the cameras went down, you know Georgi was like, All right, off to my real room or off to Rob's room. Actually. Well right here in the whole apartment. Rob. I'm like, what the fuck? And you picked up this what he was getting at when he's like, Georgi, come check it out. I have like a whole pad down here. And it's almost like I don't believe that they have done anything sexual and I kind of they showed that clip again of in the Vanderpup in the villa or whatever. Of them going down the stairs and talking about like that we've been fucking for months or whatever. And I really think that was just to like start drama that's not real. I don't know. I just feel like they're playing into it too much at this point that it's like over the top. I think maybe they hooked up once or twice and it's been a known thing and they're like, let's use this. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Airtime. Right. Right. But yeah, there's definitely more than enough space in that freaking McMansion. So Right. Then we have Taylor and Taylor struggling to get their luggage in. I felt so bad for Taylor Strecker. I know. And I'm thinking, how hot is it? 'Cause she has on like the little sweater tied and everything. Probably hot a well Bel air so it's so hot. Yeah. I'm like, what were you thinking? Like wearing that, but that was cute because I think Teddy said it. She was like, you're such a gentlewoman. Like a gentleman, gentlewoman. I loved it. I was like, that's awesome. you wouldn't know what I'm talking about, but this chef from Vanderpump Villa is working for Stassi in this scene. He's a chef. he's the Italian chef. She's literally just pulling every person from every reality show. She's genius, very smart. She is absolutely smart. Well, I think it's probably and I'm I say this at dinner next scene, the goat cheese balls. She probably tried this guy's goat cheese balls and was like, Okay, you're coming to cook for us. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. so let's see. Everyone's at the dinner table, ready to eat the wait, wait, wait. There is the already the speculation it it was brought up about Rob and Georgi, and the one thing I want to say about that is I think it was Stassi that said it. And she was like, Yeah, it'd be weird because he's like eighty nine and she's twelve. Yeah I was like, oh my god, he's eighty-nine wow that fucking shot up. oh my gosh though. So Rob making up a lie. What? Okay. So they talk about how weird it would be and if the two of them hooked up at the dinner table now, right? Okay, yeah. And we have Beau really not saying much in the conversation, so Stassi's kind of carrying it and just, you know, talking about Rob's immaturity and Beau starts to chime in, so Rob gets super defensive. So to combat them calling him immature and he wouldn't understand what it's like to be a parent and how much extra. Well no, that started because Rob let out that he had a girlfriend of six months who he was afraid was pregnant. That's how he combated them being like you just wouldn't understand the pressure of being a dad. And he was like Well, actually, like I had my own scare, like my own situation. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. So, okay, let me see if I get got this right. Rob claimed that he thought he knocked a girl up, that he was dating for nine months, that no one had ever heard of. Six months. He bought a baby book. Yeah. But he sets it up so we bought the book and spoke with her family before she actually confirmed she was pregnant and that No no no, she tested negative. No, it's she tested positive but it was a false positive and that false positives are a known issue in her family. No no no no. She tested negative and her family told them her family has a history of testing negative but they're actually pregnant. Okay. And everyone was like, what? And I was so happy that Stassi put it up on an asterisk that that's not a thing. And just for everyone, that is not a thing. Yeah, I have it in my notes. to ask you. Yeah, it was it was negatives. And he was like, Yeah, that's that her family always get goes negative and it's positive. I was like, what! It's so embarrassing that he's lying? But why are you buying these things and telling parents if they Well, she had all the symptoms. Well, he's not. This is a lie, obviously. oh you think the whole thing is made up? You don't think the girl is real? No! You think that's really true? oh my gosh. And okay. Yeah, but the reason I do is because Stassi and Beau were not talking to Rob during this period of time that he was quote unquote with this girl. I think it's really convenient it was during that time. Okay. and I also think it was really convenient that when Stassi was like, Who else at the table knows? Georgi saying I knew felt very, I'm gonna cover for you. I'm gonna protect you. I don't know. Just I don't know. Just my just my thoughts. Yeah. No, it's definitely a possibility. I think Rob is quite a character, so he I wouldn't put it past him, honestly. Yep. So yeah. Georgi's like, I knew. And pretty much Stassi is like, so you knew and Beau didn't? Let's get all his secrets out then. Yes. Yep. Have you guys hooked up? Yep. They both denied. Rob was never, never nothing sexual happened. I flirt with Georgi. That's it. And Stassi pretty much says, you know, your body language is just way too much. Yeah. And then she makes these comments of that video you sent me of a podcast of Georgi talking about, and I didn't realize it was from this episode that she paid for the wedding and paid for the divorce. And now so Alicia sent me a video of Georgi on a podcast saying that that's ridiculous that she's throwing that in in Georgi's face because She would not allow her to pay for her wedding and she would also not allow her to pay for the divorce and like Georgi paid for it and then she got like Venmo or whatever the money after, which is just crazy now to see it on the episode. And like Stassi really was just throwing it out there. And I have to say, I don't know if I think Georgi's lying. I don't either. I kind of think that's true. I think she's throwing it back in her face. And that is a very bad side of Stassi, I think, that is kind of being revealed. From this show that like she loves to have her hands in everything, and like that's a little way of controlling someone to be like, I have this over your head. Yeah, exactly. 100%. Yeah, don't like that one bit. Yeah, me neither. oh yeah. And back to Georgi sticking up for Rob, she really made a comment that Rob has been there the most out of anyone in her life. And I was like, oh my God. And Stassi was like, Fuck you. I know. I would have jumped across the table and strangled her. I know. It was bad. It's bad. So the dinner pretty much takes a hard turn with Beau versus Rob. So Stassi can see that Rob, or excuse me, Beau is not saying what he's being paid to say. Yeah. So she just really goes after Rob. You're always dating younger women. What's up with that? Beau agrees, all of this. It's just a Beau is going off. Yep. Yep. And Stassi is smirking while Beau is like raising his voice at Rob. Yeah. Beau's like, from my perspective, there's no change between you now and 20 years ago. Yeah. Yeah. But I I felt bad for Beau because I I think Beau, when they got to the staycation house, was like, I just want to have fun tonight and I just want to be away from our kids and have a good time. And Stassi shouldn't have done that. One hundred percent and he does. Beau does turn on Stassi. He does. And it's where it starts to get really good and it feels really authentic. Beau is furious because he's he's essentially saying, I told you I wasn't ready to have the conversation and you made me have the conversation. And it's Beau is making it clear. There's my timeline and there's production timeline. And because you have your hand in production, I didn't have to do that. You pushed me to do that. Right. And now you look dumb, Stassi. And that's what really took her over the edge. Which I was like, You have no right to be upset at him. You just blew up this whole dinner, you put him on the spot, and now you're pinning him against Rob. He just wants peace. One hundred percent. And like that's not the worst thing he could have said to you. Relax. Literally, literally, literally. Cause she did look dumb. Yeah. Cause she was smirking and was like, finally, Beau's stepping up and it's like, no, that that's not a nice thing to do. And then she walks off. Yup. And then and end of the episode. Yeah. It backfired completely. It was just horrible. So for her. I was glad to see Beau stick up for himself. And she even did say, You don't even care about him. oh my God. I know. And he said, How dare you tell me what I Well that's that's in the next one. Okay. Yeah. So let's shift. So this is one thing at the beginning of episode five. So now it's it's giving thanks, it's called. Yeah. Okay. and it's Stassi and her confessional, and she goes, Her first thing she says is, I wanted everyone to just get a break with this staycation. Are you out of your fucking mind, girl? You do this confessional what after the you've watched what you filmed, right? Mm-hmm. It's crazy. Why would you even sit in that chair and say that? Like the I don't know. I'm sorry, and I hate to say this. I actually l dislike Stassi so much more now that this season has come out because I'm just seeing sides of her that I really don't like. I'm seeing sides of her that are vintage VPR that when she left the show or got fired, I guess, for those two or three years before she got canceled, she had claimed she grew from. Right, because now you're an adult and you have children. You can't be showing these behaviors. And I don't know. I don't I don't like it more about it. I don't like it. Right. I still love her though. I can't help it. I don't know. so as I said, I or as you said, we pick up here with her saying, You don't even care about him. And then you see a clip from downstairs where Rob's like, that's real yelling. I know. Yes. And Taylor runs after her. She wants to console Stassi. I was confused because I didn't really see any actual tears coming out of Stassi's eyes. And I I'm just always confused when she's crying. I yeah. It's weird. And she has makeup on. I'm like, why is it nothing look off? I know. I know. You can see streaks when someone cries if they have foundation on. She definitely has foundation on. Right. But sometimes you're so angry. Maybe. I think she was more. I don't think she can cry. Okay, so pretty much she says that you know I was just trying to do my job and I get called stupid by my husband. Yeah. Like this is crazy. Like, is that real? I can't really say that. And Taylor's like, honey, honey, honey, honey, honey, honey, you have to listen to him. And then Beau busts in. Yeah, he's pissed. He's pissed. And he's right. Stop. And that's when she starts saying you don't even care about him, raising her voice. Okay. And Beau is like, Don't you ever tell me how I feel. You know what I'm gonna do? He says, I'm gonna go down and drink a bottle of wine and pass out on the couch. How's that production? Yes. Or something. Yes. so we get to the next morning. Wait. But before that, I'm sorry, these the little things that I really think is she's like, Go, and he's already halfway walking, and he goes, I was already walking away before you said go away. I was like, yes, that's her match. And people start getting ready for bed and stuff. And it just out of nowhere just cuts to Katie and her boyfriend in bed. And he goes, I just want to crash out. I was like, do they have to include that? Maybe it's because the only thing he said all season. Literally. I don't know. okay, the next morning. Rob and Taylor are on the couch just talking about the night before, and Taylor Wait, question. Kristina didn't sleep over. Why? I'm sure if she were here, she'd be like, Because of my baby. Fuck off. Well, I guess she doesn't have the baby daddy. And where's yeah? So that was a question I have later. Where is her significant other? Who created this child with her? And where is he? I don't know. Weird. We'll have to look that up. Yeah. Cause I don't know actually. Yeah. so yeah, Rob and Taylor are talking, and in reference to Stassi, Taylor says, Listen, I told her, do you want to be right or do you want to be happy? Yep. I'm like, I didn't hear that come from your mouth at all. I didn't either. So enough to that. Yeah. I think Beau walked in a little too soon. And then Beau was sleeping on the couch while they were having this entire conversation. I'm like, why did you guys choose to sit right next to where Beau is trying to sleep? Like the poor guy sleeping on a couch in a beautiful mansion. Like, what the fuck? Yeah, what are you doing give him some peace. Literally. So Stassi acknowledges that she slept on this situation alone. Yep. And she made the decision also alone. that today was all about the baby shower and she'll put the conversation with Beau on the back burner. And then Beau's confessional is we just sweep it under the rug and we keep calm and carry on. Yeah. He's so funny. He really is. So the baby shower. Taylor says in her confessional that she hopes things smooth out that day between Beau and Stassi because they're not gonna have an opportunity for a baby shower because of this work trip. That doesn't make sense. That was so weird to me. Is that the staycation she's referring to? Yes. I mean, I'm assuming she's talking about she's saying this baby shower is the only one we're gonna get. Well, the funny thing about that is you have nine months to plan for a baby shower. so that is what I'm saying! So you didn't just do it literally. I feel like that's not real. I feel like Teddy's family or someone's family must have been like, we're gonna do something for you. Cause that one ain't was not a fucking baby shower. The only thing I can think of, and I'm just making this up, but I know that Taylor is from Boston. That's where her dad lives and stuff. So I know she's nowhere, like their parents are not in Cali. Maybe it's because the families are, you know, far away. I don't know. I mean, I feel like that's a big deal. They're having a child, someone they would fly in, even if she can't fly to them and do something. I don't know. It just seems weird. But in other news, what the fuck? Chicken, nuggets, and caviar? Give me a fucking break. That's disgusting. I don't know. I can't speak to that. I would not do that. You would? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Try it. That just wouldn't be my first thought. Listen, we wouldn't know because the only caviar we ever had was the stuff that Tim got, which obviously is not top of the line. Right. So it's the more expensive. Weird that people love it. But it was so salty, and it also didn't help that I instacarted chips and they were chips that had salt on them. And I was like, who? oh my gosh. Right. So True. True. anyways. But also caviar is raw fish because it's fish eggs. And they also go into a conversation about sushi. I'd like to hear what you have to say about this. Yeah, that's a no no. Isn't that? It's levels of mercury. Isn't that super dangerous? Yeah, for the baby's brain development. I'm surprised that she didn't watch that back after like And cut it and cut it. I know. Yikes. Yeah. Cause she's screwed if down the line her kid has some major fucking issue and she's like, oh it wasn't the sushi. Yeah. So like, don't tell another woman that it's okay. Like, why would you want that on your conscience? I don't know. That was so fucking weird. and then Taylor, I didn't know they call it a bump of caviar. Yeah. Yeah, that's like the new thing. And Taylor goes a bump on a bump. I know that was cool. I actually thought that was really cool. And then in comes the Manservant. this guy is something else. He's a character. He's crazy. my god. I and Taylor's like, so glad you're here. Wish you were here when I was carrying bags. Literally, literally. And then he's got a shirt off when they're taking shots. And did you notice, Beau, how uncomfortable he was? He like went like this to get the shot from the guy. I know. It was so awkward. So awkward. I think Stassi said I thought this was gonna be more downtown Abbey less Magic Mike. Yes. Yeah, because he used to have the fucking bow tie on without the shirt on. Yeah, that was fucking weird. I don't get but I'm confused at that thought. Why would a manservant be what Teddy and Taylor want when they're lesbians? Why would they want a super buff guy? Why wouldn't you get like this super hot chick? I don't know. Would you get a super hot chick for your boyfriend? I don't I'm not I'm not getting Tim no hot little number as a But that's not my their boy that's for both of them. Yeah, but I don't know. I just thought that was weird. I don't know. okay. So now we're seeing just a really fast forward of that whole day, the taco bar, the laughing, yeah, all that stuff. Not a baby shower. Not a baby shower. Yeah. so they're getting ready for dinner. It's nighttime now. And Stassi and Kristina are chatting before dinner. I think they're getting ready or something. Yeah. And Kristina is complaining about Katie and the payroll comment yet again, like let it go. so now let's talk about Katie and Kristina. Yep. So Kristina asks Katie for a quick chat before the dinner actually starts. Mm-hmm. But actually I do wanna say, yeah, it does cut really quick after like they get up to Georgi announcing to the table that she got a unit in Rob's apartment. Rob's apartment. And Rob trying to like pretend that he doesn't know. He's like, oh you got that? And she's like, Yeah, I'm like, please telling about this the whole time. Yeah, exactly. I thought that was really weird. And Georgia, what are you thinking? Like, why are you moving in with this girl? And Stassi says, it's a you thing. And that's when she finds out she's moving with Georgia. Yeah. And it's like, what the heck? Yeah, really weird. okay. Katie and Kristina, they finally talk about it. Yep. Kristina instantly says, Don't be scared. Yeah. What a Sorry, but she thinks she's hot to trot. Yeah. Yeah. so she brings up the payroll comment, which gets Katie pretty riled up and she's like, What are you talking about? Have you heard of sarcasm? What are what the heck? Right. So Katie says in her confessional that she's not motivated to be friends with Stassi because of the show. Meanwhile, Kristina says in her confessional that she thinks that Stassi is motivated to get friendly with Katie because of the show. Yes. Which is kind of a dig at Stassi. I know. I agree. then the truth comes out. Just like how football wasn't the issue with the guys, the payroll comment isn't the issue with Kristina and Katie. Yeah. Okay. It's another one of these, like, why weren't you there for me? Why weren't you there for me? I was having a baby. Katie says I was getting a divorce. You could have called me. And I just wrote I'm bored. And I said both have a point, but I'm still bored. Bored. Although Scheana caught some strays. Kristina at one point goes. Do you think I wanted to see Scheana in Mexico? oh my god, Scheana, the poor thing. She got a ring ding for that name mention. No, that laughed. That made me laugh. so Kristina pretty much says, I need to get back to my baby. Yeah, she's like, This is going nowhere. I hate when people say that. I'd rather be putting my kid to bed. But you my kid's asleep, probably. Just relax. I don't like when people do that. I don't know as like a weapon. I know. so Stassi goes to walk around and kristina's just snippy with her, she says. Very she said, I'm not okay with that comment and you shouldn't be okay with it either, Stassi. Yes. I'm like, who the fuck are you? Yeah. Another person telling someone how to feel or how to respond or react to a friendship or something said, like, get the fuck out of here. She's crazy. She is. She's on another fucking level. And she's not even staying over again nun-night!! Nighty night Nighty nighty Alright, so next we wake up, it's a fresh new day, and they're having breakfast. And well, people downstairs are having breakfast, and it shows Stassi and Beau in the beautiful ensuite to the master bathroom that they're hanging out in. Stassi says sorry, and she didn't mean to throw him under the bus. Barely says sorry. But then she says, you know, I didn't mean to try to throw you under the bus, Beau, so I'm sorry for that. However, it does feel like you intentionally threw me under the bus. Right. And then she makes this point to go over their hierarchy, which I thought was very interesting. Yeah, I don't want to know. And I was not happy with it. So she said first is them, right? Beau and Stassi. Then it's the kids, then it's everyone else. Who says that on a television show? Your your kids should be first. You make a child their number one over everyone. It reminds me have you ever, have you ever met The women or you hear people saying this, I feed my husband first, he gets the food first, and then I feed my children and then I feed myself. Yeah. It's not right. Who doesn't feed the kids first? The child can't fend for themselves. The man can get it. Yeah, yeah. In fact, he should be getting my children the food. Exactly together. Exactly. I do think so. I thought I thought that was weird. I thought that was really weird. And then they poke fun at the payroll thing saying they should get pins, which I thought that was funny. Yeah, I did too. So Beau does say in his confessional he must agree with you because he said that's a pretty good apology for Stassi with the air quotes. Yeah. and then we see the taylors head out, and I'm thinking, why did they leave? Is this actual Thanksgiving? Because why would they call it Friendsgiving if it's actu why else would they be leaving? Unless it's I don't know. I don't care. Well They're all leaving, aren't they? See, okay. Friendsgiving's at Stassi's house. Is it because I thought it was at the rental? No, I think it's Stassi's house. Wow. So they all leave because Stassi says like everyone's gonna get the fuck out of here. ohhh Yeah. See, I thought that the outside, I thought that looked like Stassi's. And that was a whole different day too. The way they cut it just looked like it all like meshed. Yeah. Because Rob was like, I gotta get my dog. oh okay. So Stassi does say in her confessional that she feels like she's the matriarch, even though people have their mums there. Yeah. She brought all these people together. Yeah. Chill. I know. So Stassi's mom arrives and Hartford loves Stassi's mom, her nana. I know. That was really cute. And it does seem that Stassi's mom is different as a grandmother than as a mom. Yeah. And I've heard people say that before. Like my parents weren't great with me, but they're the best grandparents parents to my kid or something. And I think that's the situation here. But my thing is that I think like Stassi's a tough person to deal with in general. And like I don't know. I just like feel like we didn't get enough footage in like VPR and everything to really say that like Stassi's mom wasn't like a good mom to her the way that Stassi paints it because Stassi also paints her entire family as like these monsters. And I'm like meh Yeah perception. It is percep and we'll get to that in a little bit, actually, the perception of it all. we'll we'll get back to that, I promise. Yeah. So it is interesting because to your point, what we're seeing here is I guess sort of a different dynamic because in this situation, Stassi is a daughter. Yes. The mom is dominant personality. Right. And it's crazy to see that. Yeah. and I think that it's starting to explain why Stassi is a little bit rigid because if according to Stassi, her mom's dominant and she feels like she can't do anything right with her mom. And I just wanna say when they went to Arrowhead or wherever in VPR, like Stassi's Lake House. Yeah, I remember her saying what and her mom was there actually. And I remember her saying, My mom always says, Why can't you be more like Kristen? I love Kristen. So so we see Georgi and her mom. Talking and hugging and like embracing each other, and so interesting to see the difference. It's copy paste though. Like they have the same hair, same personality, they're both shit talking. Yeah. but I do want to say, and this is full circle, Georgi does reveal in her confessional, which I think is interesting, and I really want your take. Yep. that things were very different for Stassi growing up versus Georgi, because Stassi got, how did she describe it? A powerhouse of a working mom. Working mom. And and she was rigid because she had to be. Yeah. And she wanted Stassi to take on those attributes. Well, 100%, which I will say she did. She did. And that it's was different for Georgi because her mother had softened up significantly at that point and was almost even a helicopter parent. Yeah. which I mean, some people would say, what's worse? Well, and Intent versus impact as well. Yeah. So that's a huge thing. I I don't I don't know where I stand on that because how how do you determine what's the truth? Because they both have their own truth. I know, but I don't believe a word Georgi says in with this show. I don't know. Stassi's a little skewed at times too, I think, just because she's on a show and she wants it to be a good show. Right. But I do think it is a little common for people to say, you know. You got a different version of mom than I did. I I feel like I even hear people say, talking about their babies, and they'll say, My first one, I was yeah, really on top of them. And then, you know, eight years later I had another kid. And the kid's like, I don't our parents were never strict. And it's like, yeah, because they don't care by then. But and I think it's interesting because I feel like Georgi, and I have this written down because of a conversation Georgi had with her mom in this scene, but Georgi's unhinged. Like she is kind. completely unhinged and that does not reflect like a a helicopter parent. I'm sorry. But there's certain traits in people who are helicopter parents and I don't know. I don't really see it. So I thought that was interesting that she called her mom that. You're saying that the mom isn't giving that. No, that Georgi isn't giving like sh like Georgi's unhinged. She says whatever. Like she's not really like you would Typically see like more anxiety, especially in social situations with like kids who are very much like have helicopter parents, you know what I mean? Because they're kind of fearful of everything because mom's always there to like, Whoa, my god. And Georgi's completely not that at all. She's a free spirit, like, oh my God, she makes a like I said in this scene, she says to her mom, She went down on a woman. I can't believe she said that to her mom. I know. And her mom was so uncomfortable. And her s her mom, well, I guess going into this, her mom also was so fucking blunt with Rob. And cause Georgi, why are you bringing up to your mom that people are talking about you and him fucking? Again, unhinged, but then the mom rebuttals with, Well, you're too old for her, Rob. And Rob had like the straightest face. He didn't know what the fuck to do. He did not know. He's like, Do I yell at this lady? Do I just take it? He just took it. It really was. my god. You think Stassi is tough, here's her mom. So yeah. Stassi's mom does also go after Georgia randomly. Yeah. At the dinner table, yeah. Once they sit down, it's insane. Yeah. She she starts off by saying, Georgia, it is crazy that you want to move in with Georgi after you guys have been living in that tiny, tiny room. Room wasn't tiny, beautiful room. Literally master suite in the basement. But beautiful house, plenty of room. All you do is sleep in that room. But she really just wanted to start a conversation with her so she could get to the crux of it, which is so I heard Stassi was talking to you about how her entire family is crazy and has traumatized her. Yeah. And Georgi, Georgia is like, well Yeah, and Georgi doesn't say anything. I still haven't gotten these stories. How was she so terrifying growing up? Where are the stories? I want to hear the stories. I need the proof. Me too. Me too. and Stassi pretty much overhears it and says, I can't let Georgia get demolished. Over something that has nothing to do with her, so I'm gonna go rescue her. Yeah. And she she tries. She tries. And her and her mom are just going back and forth. Her mom's pulling the well, I'm sorry, I'm such a bad I'm such a bad parent card. I know. Which was enough. I know. Enough. And then Georgia at one point, I don't know if she said this in her confessional or what, but she said it was like a fish out of the wild cycle. I thought it was I feel out of place like fish in a box. No, she said fish out of the wild cycle. Instead of fish out of water. oh so funny. I love it. I love Georgia. Although Stassi said something that I liked. She said she cares about her mom's feelings, but it does not mean that she wants to be close to her. You can still care about someone's feelings while wanting a distance. And You can love someone and and have someone in your life, but you don't give them full access. Right. Which is fair. Yeah, I thought that was probably the healthiest thing that she's ever said. You have a family. That's what happens as you get older. It's not like, hey, you're every call I make, hey, you're just walking in my house. Like that's appropriate. I think that's healthy. Especially if there's animosity. You need to protect your own peace. And she's letting her mom have unlimited access to Hartford. Yeah. Which Is now and that that solves it. There's no issue. Hundred percent. Hundred percent. But then we get a preview that you know things are going to start kind of really heating up with the family because what's his name? Nikolai. He get comes in at the end of the scene and sits down and then it cuts. So family's crazy, they're wild. Might have to cut that out, but we'll see what it looks like. Probably not good. Probably not. and kristina's there again. No husband, no significant other, no child. And there's children at this party and a child's table. Where the fuck is your family? Yeah. And why are you a part of this show when all you're doing is starting drama with Katie? When you could be giving us the drama of your life, because it sounds like it's a mess. I know. I know. And then they held hands, her and Katie, over the the table. Cause she was like, Stassi, is this what you want? And I'm like, Okay, is this is not breaking the fourth wall. This is just annoying. Mm-hmm. Don't like it. It's annoying. But yeah, we'll see what happens on episode six. I mean, maybe if it's not that much, we'll try and smash those two together because we get a lot coming up with Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. We have Real Housewives of New York. They're simultaneously starting because we need to get through this House of Stassi. Honestly, I'm tired of it. I And they haven't officially announced season two. I read it today. They're like, it seems like they're talking about it, blah, blah, blah. People are hinting at it, but it's not officially announced, which is interesting. Right. I I mean, it just dropped. Give it some time. Yeah. Yeah. I think they're probably like, let's watch the ratings for a while, but I don't know. How much more can she do? I don't know. No, I Please. I love the show. But she would need Georgi to stay frantic and a mess. Yeah. Because that's half the drama. She's always gonna be frantic and a mess, I feel like. Right. Yeah. She is. Yeah. And Rob too. Yeah. But yeah, that that's a wrap on that. Those two episodes we are wildly at fifty four minutes, but that's gonna be much lower because there is a break in between. So the might be a shortest episode. For House of Stassi, which doesn't make any sense because it's two episodes, but we did it. We did it. And I think worst case scenario, if we absolutely have to skip an episode or two to get to the finale so that we could start Salt Lake, we will. Yeah. Or even if we did what I was thinking, and this is wild, if we really go light on our notes and just finish up because now we all we have is six, seven, eight. If we could do th the last three next week and then we can roll right into Salt Lake. I haven't watched the finale. you haven't seen the last episode? No, I wanted to save it. Yeah, I wanted to save it. Okay. So I don't know if that's jam-packed. I don't remember. Well, no promises. But at the very least we're gonna put two together. Yeah, at least. Yeah. Okay. Because I don't want to get too much behind on Salt Lake 'cause then we'll be scrambling. No matter what, we're going to do Salt Lake in real time. So if it means by the time it drops, or you have to just which is Tuesday. Yeah. no. Yeah, lassie Okay. All right. We'll talk off camera. I think Tuesday. Yeah, the eighth. We'll talk off camera. Okay. Okay. All right, guys. and that's it. have a lovely Friday.
