RHOSLC Episode Discussion: S2E11 "Old Testaments, New Revelations"

Meredith shouting “SHE’S NOT!” when Lisa said “I don’t think she’s who we think she is.”

The Jen Shah Ghost Phone Number Racism Texts. What a terrifying woman.

Heather’s relationship with Jen is really depressing to me. I fully understand why Heather is the way that she is, but Heather… it’s an abusive relationship.

“So are you going to visit her in prison?” Love Meredith Marks.

“I’ve never seen potential in Jen. I’ve never seen good in Jen.”

Meredith Marks Will Kill Jen Shah in Open Combat.

Mary’s morning outfit is her take on a Brooks Marks original look! Everyone being afraid of making her breakfast is right. I would be too!

I love when Meredith and Lisa talk. It’s like an ethereal elven robot having a conversation with the mean boss from a 90s RomCom.

I gasped in delight at the reveal of Meredith and Lisa’s ice skating outfits. Their Jill Zarin serve!

Heather’s sister story reminded me of when Jackie resolved her like decades long feud with her sister by calling her in the driveway.

Jen’s defense being “I help too many people and I’m simply too kind to have committed fraud!” Incredible behavior.

I love that she’s sticking with the internal bleeding story!!!!! Yes, girl! Commit!

Swedish Christmas Hookers

Haunting scene of Mary getting dressed and talking in third person.

“I want meat.”

Mary’s bad attitude during the Swedish Christmas hooker event is incredibly funny. She hates these women and she does not want to be around them.

“Who does that at our age-I mean at Whitney’s age.”

“She needs a lot of attention. It’s exhausting giving it to her.”

unhappily, with a mouthful of food “I have a party going on in my mouth.”

Really loved Meredith’s long explanation on how to make s’mores. Really love everything about Meredith Marks.

“Heather. Heather. It’s her party. It’s her party. She can cry if she wants to.”

“I’m not your child, Mary.”

“Thank God!”

Lisa and Whitney exposing Mary’s cult while wearing the stupidest hats possible.

Heather very clearly laying out the path from Jen Shah drama to Mary drama for everyone to follow. A producer!

Would love to see Meredith and Dorinda slur their through a conversation.

Heather vs. Mary next week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

'what i was accused of is the complete opposite of anything i would ever do in my life. if i have any fault, it's that i'm too giving and help too many people.'

i'm obsessed with the spectacle of mary, who's a misanthropic introvert even before you factor in the cult stuff, attempting to engage in a girls' trip with these women she plainly hates and places herself above because, again, she thinks she is god!!!! i love that the jen arrest happened in the middle of what was clearly a mary takedown, and that everyone is just going ahead with it anyway. i also want to shout out the moment at the very beginning of the episode when everyone is yelling about jen and you see mary hurt herself eating a chip.

what a star turn for meredith this episode. it was the most animated i've seen her. so much passionate yelling! i think she's feeling herself in the wake of the jen arrest and is using that renewed power to drag everyone else's skeletons kicking and screaming out of the closet. i loved 'so are you gonna visit her in prison?' and i loved her gigantic iridescent puffer jacket

'how old's zyrtec?'

IF WE DO NOT SHARE WHAT WE KNOW, WE’RE IN DANGER.

bcuz

I thought this episode really showcased how much SLC has to offer beyond the shahrest, which is the icing on the cake of what would have been a stellar season regardless. There are so many different layers of drama and a constant barrage of new secrets being revealed. Everyone on this cast plays an important, unique role and delivers on a consistent basis. But the Jen stuff is legitimately sensational, in the purest sense of the word. “If I have any fault it is that I’m too giving, and I help too many people.” Wow. Just wow.

Meredith: “CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE HUNDREDS OF LIVES SHE HAS RUINED THROUGH HER ACTIONS?” Sweet, innocent Heather: “I thought you were on an upward trend with her.” 😂

Meredith did A+ work this episode.“Who here wants to be friends with Jennifer Shah moving forward?” Draw that line in the sand <3. And her insistence on talking to Mary about Cryptic Conversations despite Lisa’s reticence is really keeping this shit moving forward in an interesting way. I like the choices editing made to make us wait a little bit for the Jen footage to build anticipation, and to only reveal Meredith's chat with Mary right at the end of the episode so we learned about it at the same time as the other women.

If in fact she repeatedly defrauded the elderly, I am utterly revolted.

Seeing Lisa talk about what she likes about Vail gave me a yearning to see her interact with Ramona. She was so funny tonight. Clamming up the entire episode and then finally cracking under Meredith's interrogation with “He mortgaged his house and gave her $300,000.” BOOM.

Mary was a tour de force tonight. She did not like the fact that Meredith hired a P.I. It cracks me up how whenever Mary disparages Jen’s character everyone just ignores her. I was legitimately nervous for Whitney as she inspected the egg. Loved Mary’s utter displeasure with every aspect of the evening except dessert <3

I was a little suspicious of Heather’s sister storyline, but seeing the sister come for her on camera next week has me 100% on board, lol. Is this going to give us Pettifleur and Gillian, U.S. edition?

Everyone was in top form this episode — Jen just takes my breath away, she is so CAVALIER and this felt like one of the Mary eps where I almost felt like she started to make some sense even if she still comes off as extremely unreasonable (which we looooove), but truly it was Meredith who had my heart tonight. I love the image of Meredith yelling, staring at a table and practically fighting to not fall asleep while raising her volume but barely changing her tone.

SLC continues to deliver. I love that they could easily rest on their laurels with this Jen arrest, but in Jen's absence on the trip they're instead turning their sights towards Mary's church. Beverly Hills, take note.

I have to say I'm obsessed with Meredith's rainbow fish-esque oversized puffer and white gogo boots then revealing into a skating outfit. Seeing her and Lisa and her side by side in those puffers reminded me of a more fashion forward version of the Ice Climbers. There's something inherently absurd about how large those jackets are, I want ten.

Jen giving us her job interview weakness answer knocked me sideways. If anything she is TOO giving and TOO generous. Her continuing her lie about that phone call, man this woman is such a terrible liar how did she run a nationwide telemarketing scam.

Every Mary moment I have helpfully catalogued into my brain forever too. Her microwaving that egg until it has the texture of rubber because she didn't see Whitney wash her hands. Same with her talking to herself about being over it. I do worry a little bit that Mary hates every single event this show requires and also every last one of the women. I need Mary longevity with Jen most likely hitting the clink for 5-30 years. Gotta say I relate to Mary hitting her limit with all of the people talking and turning into a huge crank who needs to leave immediately. Unlike Mary, I do hope Heather winds up in my bed.

Good things start with a B: Barlow, berries and bacon!!

“Religious trauma is the most ABSTRACT THING I have ever heard in my life”

I can’t tell if Lisa is a bad scheme actress or if SLC ladies are just too savvy to fall for it, but I’m loving how Lisa is still setting up the dominos and everyone’s like “STOP HINTING THINGS JUST GIVE US THE PUNCHLINE”

Lmfao meredith on wwhl: “in the words of lisa barlow, roll tape.” 😂. She looks great, i could totally see her as a lawyer in another life especially given she has a law degree. Meredith Woods.

What the deal with the person who’s name they bleep out
