While the two Jersey girls giggled and gaggled in the doctors office, Dolores was spilling all kinds of tea about Teresa's marriage. Dolores was pissed about the other girls criticizing her relationship with Frank, while Danielle is on her 56th engagement and Teresa has a husband doing time in the slammer.
Miss Catania even brought up how Frank has always been better to her than Joe has been to Teresa and she even talked about Juicy Joe's shady cheating rumours. Dolores has been Teresa's friend for 25+ years so she knows where all the bodies are buried. Hey, maybe Jacqueline was right about Joe fucking his secretary and the baby sitter. Now, Dolores was speaking FACTS in the doctors office but this conversation is definitely gonna come back and bite her toned, loyal ass.
While Dolores watched her bestie get injections in her butt, Margaret was talking with Marge Sr who had a car with eyelashes and pigtails to match her daughter. The extra-ness of it all, I love it! I still think that Marge should mess around with Tre's dad. He's newly single! Margaret told her mom all about her unexpected beef with Dolores so she called up Miss Loyalty and they organised a meet up. Don't you love a perfectly produced Housewives meet up. You know, when they say I'll text you the place which really means: the producers are gonna find a place that will let us film and they'll let you know. That's right I've been in the Housewives game a looongggg time.
The most eyeopening part of the episode was Dolores and Margaret's sit-down. Obviously Dolores has Siggy's back 50000% so they was NO way she was gonna admit Siggy's faults to her arch enemy. The girls ended up moving past Margaret's feud with Siggy and bonded on a deeper level. Dolores opened up about her ex husband's cheating and their divorce which lead to her being a single mother, while Margaret channelled her inner Soggy Flicker and cried about how her step children refuse to talk to her, after she cheated on their father. Step or not, a child is a child so it must be hard for Marge to be dealing with all of this. Seeing Margaret cry really humanised her and gave her more depth which was a change from the wise ass in pigtails that we are used to.
The rest of the episode all pretty much revolved around the Gorga and the Giudice kids. These children have been running around in the background for years and now to have storylines focused around them I realised how GROWN they are. I still remember Teresa giving birth to Audriana, and now she's 7! Mind blown.
Teresa took her brood down to Puerto Rico with her dad, I'm not really sure why the cameras needed to follow them down there, but I'm sure the producers enjoyed their free trip. Danielle called her to "check in" and plant seeds about Dolores in Teresa's head. It makes me so mad because I can see the cogs turning in Danielle's head and I want her to stop what she's doing before she really fucks up Teresa and Dolores friendship. Tre tried to talk to her spitfire Milania about loosing her mother but she got her prison sentence thrown right back in her face. I've said it before and I'll say it again, Milania is my favourite Giudice kid, I mean is there any other options? Gia acts all grown, Audriana is too young and Gabriella is counting down the days till she can head to college and get the hell away from her crazy family. Come to think of it, have we ever heard her speak?
