Now that you've mentioned it, I do remember her saying that. Wonder why they weren't there to see about dad? That seems strange.

Me, too but so many people, particularly young girls, have such low self esteem, but have a lot of bravado.
I had read that Joanna and Roman have reunited after their "break." They almost seem to be glued to each other out of lethargy but so many of their generation expect perfection in a relationship. And that just doesn't exist.
Thought it was a good finale....altho to be catty, I thought Adriana did not pick a proper dress for her duet with her son.
Funny but my opinion of her went way up, seeing that scene...and it was pretty low!

I was so surprised by the finale, but I loved it. To me, it would be fabulous if all of the HW series had more of the women attempting to get along on with an open-heart, the way these women did. It will be very interesting to see how much of the good feelings remained by the time they filmed the Reunion. Either way, the women have grown on me, and I hope there is a Season 3.

Those good feelings and the 'healing' ritual they went thru in Bimini did not last at all! Just saw part one of the reunion and it was brutal!!! Everyone, except for Lisa, were screaming and crying. Part two looks just as bad!

I guess seeing the episodes with commentaries got them all worked up.

Adrianna--screaming at and over Joanna. Lacking in logic.

Joanna--she could have just let go of Roman. Perhaps Roman was trying to genuinely buy away Joanna's pain with the necklace. Why will he not set a wedding date though? To me that is a definite sign of something wrong. Respect Roman as a part of the past.

Marisol--best reunion dress

Lea--girl who hangs out with scummy gone wild and stripper pole people. Men financed her. And maybe that is why she "digs". She is jealous.

Ana--she said becoming single was scary. She has not been single for 20 years. I believe her and hope she finds freedom from fear...worst reunion dress....weirdly mad at Lea

Can't wait for the reunion shows....The finale was nice...better than I expected but we have been taught by Bravo NOT to expect nice.
Nice doesn't sell.

The physical fight scene was more detailed at the reunion than originally played. Originally they showed the clear deliberation of Adrianna swinging around and going for Joanna's face. At the reunion it showed the second swipe was going to be the broom. In a nanno second both of her hands locked onto the broom handle.

I've now watched the first episode of the reunion twice...once kind of half paying attention and second after reading stuff Ana's husband has said. I've concluded there was a heck of a lot of editing in the Ana vs. Lea attack. Note the folder that was passed between Ana and Marysol (there, then not there, then there again) but never directly addressed. The story is, from iRealHousewives, per Robert (Ana's ex) is that Ana dug up dirt on Lea's charity and when confronted with the material in the folder, Lea was a mess and perhaps an injunction followed. Obviously I have no idea if that story is true, but it kind of fits with the edit, especially toward the end.

I have also drawn my own conclusion that Adrianna is a bit of a psycho and I want to know where that bruise on her cheek came from. Probably not Joanna at this point but she was definitely going for that broom handle during the fight.

And Lisa has become the most reasonable person on the couches. I never would have bet that. It may change next week.

Oh, and I totes think Lea has had some work between seasons. No shame in that...she looked great. She acted like an ass, but looked good doing it.

Maybe the money goes to a different cause...

Geez, these women are so pretty, have beautiful clothing, massive jewelry, lovely homes, easy living, nothing but the best. I cannot figure out why they present themselves as clowns. Makes no sense at all!
