Previously on The Real Housewives of Orange County...
I hate the devil!
You're going in the fire!
- [screaming] - [laughter]
-This is whack-a-doodle. - So, John has a type.
- Are you okay? - I know, what's going on?
What's happening is...
Is it a Shannon thing?
It's all of the legal battle, period.
John Janssen sues ex, Shannon Bedour, for $75,000.
Now, it all makes sense
why Alexis was acting a little loony.
Oh, Shannon's calling me.
She butt-dialed me.
When we did the fashion show,
I was the only person that brought their own jeans to wear.
I felt like I was singled out.
I thought I was giving you a starring role.
I'm asking you to have a conversation.
Could you be quiet for a second?
Oh, [bleep] off.
- Hi, bud. How are you? - What's up, man?
- Good. Good to see you. - Yeah?
- Wanna give me a hug? - No.
Oh, okay.
Don't talk about my ----ing kids.
I feel I'm validated in everything I said
- based on the way you guys-- - Are you ----ing kidding me?
- ...treated me. - How's the FBI going for you?
Stop, okay?
Can you just stop talking?
Eddie, I hate this coming between me and you.
I'm done.
- Oh, sh--. - This guy's a piece of sh--.
[bleep]
----ing kidding me?
I'm done. Get in the car. Let's go.
[bleep]
It doesn't need to be like this, so.
She's Tamra. That's what she does.
Hello?
Girlfriend.
- What? - Why'd you leave?
I'm not gonna put up with that guy.
I know.
She knows he's a piece of sh--.
Ask her about the FBI.
And now, there's a lawsuit that's going on
by the FBI about illegal gambling?
- Shut up. - Yes.
It's disgusting.
- Oh, no. - He's a horrible human being.
There's an account on Instagram that broke down everything.
What was going on in Las Vegas,
things about his partner.
$595,000 was paid to Ryan
and Ryan's company, Lion Time Inc.
And when Ryan was asked where that money was coming from,
he just simply couldn't remember.
Allegedly.
And also, allegedly,
Ryan's partner's business address is Ryan's home address.
Eddie, I think Tamra's ready to go.
Oh, okay.
Eddie, it was really good to meet you, finally.
Thank you for coming over.
- We should get together soon. - Yeah, I would love that.
- Eddie, pleasure. - Nice to meet you.
Bye, Eddie.
- I look forward to next time. - Seriously.
- Thank you. - Bye.
See you soon.
Good to see you.
Yeah, we'll see you soon, maybe.
Yeah. Appreciate it.
You guys can be golf course friends.
I know.
- Take care of that for me. - I will.
- Help me with that. Okay. - I will.
After how far Tamra and I have come...
I'm so happy that Ryan stepped up for you.
I love you so much.
I'm so grateful. You have no idea.
...I would love to sit here and say
I'm blindsided by this behavior,
but it was a matter of time.
I'm sorry, Jenn.
Oh, you know, it was short-lived, unfortunately.
It's hard because I love Eddie.
I respect him tremendously, but Tamra can't help herself.
She's not loyal to anyone,
and certainly not me.
Tamra's very upset.
What did she say?
She just said ask him about the FBI.
Gosh, that's so interesting.
Yeah, one of my closest friends is going through something
and has been since September.
I mean, she must be talking about Matt.
- Oh. - Yeah.
Do you host people in Vegas?
Matt's one of my closest friends.
I go with him to Vegas often.
- Okay. - But I don't know about host.
I've never hosted anything.
Oh, I didn't know. Isn't that what he was doing?
- No. - Oh, I thought
he was hosting big timers in Vegas,
and then that's how he got in trouble.
- Like they were using... - No.
- ...illegal money or something. - No, not at all.
Then, why the FBI?
Matt's a pro,
excuse me, he's a professional gambler.
Okay, right.
And also has a bookie business,
and him and his family are going through some tough times.
I'm not even able to talk about it.
- I mean, that's his situation. - No, I know, I'm sure.
It's super, super tough for him.
Oh, I thought you guys did the same thing.
- In California. - No.
No, gosh, no.
Well, I don't know, I would just always
see you together like going to Vegas and stuff.
No, they're great friends of ours.
Okay, I've heard the rumors about Ryan
and the FBI and some partner that he's involved in
being investigated by the FBI.
I don't know details.
I don't know if it's true.
So, you would just go with them?
- Yes. Yeah. - Oh, okay.
We like the fruits of just going with our friends.
We were fortunate to enjoy those fruits.
Ryan goes to Vegas like it's his job.
His career is going to Vegas.
I don't know what else there is to do in Vegas
besides gamble, go to shows, drink.
Oh, prostitution.
That is legal.
I'm sorry how the night went.
It's not your fault. It's Ryan's fault.
- Yeah. - It wasn't you.
What a ----ing night.
* What goes around, comes around, goes around *
This is cool.
Hi, welcome to Backyard Expressions.
Oh, I'm meeting a friend.
- Okay, wonderful. - Great.
Are you looking for anything particular?
I guess we're looking for outdoor expressions.
Hi.
- There's the birthday girl. - Okay, well.
- Hello. - Oh, my God, happy birthday.
Thank you. Thank you.
How do you feel?
Come on, man. This is a new decade.
- Yeah. - This is good.
It's my 60th birthday,
but birthdays have never been a big day for me.
I just don't like the focus on me.
I don't, I don't, I'm uncomfortable with it.
Oh, hi. I'm getting her a crown.
I feel like you need a crown.
Okay, let's just keep emphasizing the big.
Big birthday.
So, singing in public in the store.
I appreciate the kindness, but it's not necessary.
All right, so what are we looking for? What do we need?
In my front patio, I have space for a sofa.
This is nice, but it is a spider trap.
Spiders would live in here, yeah.
Oh, yeah, that's why I don't like ivy on houses.
- It looks like rat ladders. - It is.
- Jinx.
- See, this looks like you. - No.
Do you like this one?
None of that matches my place.
Well, do you like this one?
No. This is weird.
I got great style,
but we are 20 years apart in age,
and that might play into the style, you know?
- That's cute. - No.
- I like that. - No.
- This is kind of comfortable. - Yeah.
How was your show, first of all?
- I haven't even seen you guys. - Yeah, how was the show?
Well, first of all, we sold out both shows.
Wow. Oh, I saw that on your Instagram.
Shannon Bedour and Vicki Gunvalson!
[cheering]
How was the end of the trip?
That was good.
Jenn's house became like a sh-- storm.
Something happened with Alexis,
she wouldn't tell us what it was.
Oh, because they did their PR stunt.
John gave People Magazine the lawsuit,
and I'm like, "What do I do?"
This isn't about money.
No, he wants the non-disparagement.
It's about him trashing me.
What I assume is he's thinking,
"Well, what happens if I sign a non-disparagement
"and then she sh-- talks me on the show the whole season."
That's how he's thinking, though, according to Alexis.
He wants to respond to the allegations
when all of this comes out.
It's unbelievable to me.
The sole purpose of John and Alexis putting this lawsuit
in the hands of the public is to hurt me
and try and make me look bad.
I'm tired of talking about him.
I just want to move on with my life.
I get it.
And oh, by the way, when he broke up with me,
he had a statement prepared for People magazine as well.
Who do you think you are?
You need to tell the world?
Anyways, I had Tamra, Eddie, Jenn, Ryan,
Shane, Emily at my house for dinner.
And, um, that was interesting.
Why?
It got heated.
- Hi, Fran! - Hello.
Oh, look what you have on!
- Isn't it so [indistinct]? - Yes! Thank you!
- It's so comfortable. - It actually really is
and it's super cute.
Let me see the room.
This is cool, Nick.
I love the New York skyline.
- It's awesome. - It's really cool.
And then we blocked it with the [indistinct] anti-dust.
But you know what? It's still there.
Oh, my gosh. This is so fun.
- And then there's a fire pole. - This looks huge.
Oh, look at you.
Wow.
Should I do that?
Yeah. Try it, Mom.
Try it, Mom.
Don't hit your knees on that. That hurts.
Yeah, but she's too big. She's gonna hit her.
Or she's just gonna get stuck.
[pole squeaks]
Yay!
I feel like I could be a good stripper.
Why can't there be like a golden strip club?
The Golden Girls.
We're just swinging from poles.
Need to take some ibuprofen here and there.
It sounds sexy.
- Does it? - No.
I don't even think I would be worthy
of a stripper name because that sh-- is too much work.
I'm winded from just coming down it.
Ew, no, because my mom's Susan.
Oh, my God, so I saw Tamra
and she said that you all went to Katie's
or whatever with the guys.
Oh, my God. That was a sh-- show.
I just said, like,
why don't we talk about the elephant in the room?
And I said, you went on a podcast
and talked badly about my gym,
you talked badly about my husband,
and then I called him a little bitch.
Such a little bitch!
Tamra was just all out of sorts.
She can't keep doing this,
where it's like because you had three martinis,
you can say things that are awful.
So, we're sitting at dinner,
Tamra, she started calling Ryan a little bitch,
and Jenn started screaming at Tamra.
- They all have a long history. - Yes.
But sometimes, not everyone has to be friends.
I think it's okay.
They need to not be together.
I'll be honest with you,
when I invited you to the tea on the group text...
Shannon texted all of us. She said, "Hello, ladies.
"In light of me turning 60, I thought it'd be fun
"to do something age appropriate
"and invite you to tea on Tuesday."
Oh.
Tamra said, "I can't make it."
That was right after my house.
Oh.
She was very emotional.
I think she was just heightened, you know?
So tomorrow, we have Shannon's party...
And now I'm getting pissed that she's, like,
treating me the way she's treating me.
Because we left together?
Yeah, because I chose to get you out of a bad situation.
I didn't do anything to you, Emily.
When I started to say what I wanted to say,
- you were pissed. - No, Emily, you kept going.
I didn't ask you! Shut the [bleep] up!
This was a lovely night. Had a great time.
It wasn't like I was like, [bleep] you, Heather,
as I was leaving.
I'm in trouble because one friend took your side.
- Yeah. - So, what side were you on?
I can see how she wants to be heard,
but I can see how the night got away from her.
I was listening to her. She got aggressive with me.
She told Tamra that I attacked her.
I didn't ----ing attack her.
When I walked up and I was crying and I said
"Why don't we just sit down as friends and just talk this out?"
And she put her finger in my face and she said, "No."
How did you leave it with her?
Terribly.
- Have you talked to her? - No.
Haven't talked to her at all.
- But you saw her? - Correct.
And she got emotional,
and she said I just wanted her to hear me.
I wanted her to see me as a size 6 and not a size 12.
It's hurtful.
She said, you know, "I feel like I've worked so hard,
"and it's like she still sees me as the big girl."
Wait a minute.
So, Emily has just talked to everyone about this,
but I would have loved to have had the opportunity
to talk to her and made her feel better about this.
I think she's gorgeous.
What did I say?
What did I do to make you feel that way?
All I needed from her was for her to actually be a human
and understand that that is something
that's psychologically triggering for me
because of everything I've had to deal with in the past,
because of every ----ing name I've been called.
Just being public and putting myself out there,
the constant commentary on my body, it's hurtful,
and sometimes it just messes with me,
especially when people comment negative things where I'm like,
I post something, and I'm like, "Oh, I look good.
"I see some muscle tone there."
And then people are like, "You need to keep working out."
You look the same.
And I'm like, "Damn, man, I can't win."
Honestly, I'm not interested
in having any conversation with her
because then it's on her terms again.
I am a very good listener
and I really want to sit down with her one-on-one.
I want to know what's going on,
but if you want to come after me with something
that you're saying I did to you,
it's really hard for me to not answer back.
She's got to come back down to the earth a little, Heather.
That air up there is real thin.
It's starting to cut off the circulation to her brain.
Coming up.
Oh, wow.
- Is it from you guys? - No.
Who's it from?
**
- Hi. - Hi.
Emily.
- Jason. - Hi, Jason.
Thank you for having us today.
- I appreciate it. - Absolutely.
Anthony is going to come in
to shop for a new suit.
- That's awesome. - Yeah.
Hi, Anthony.
- Hey, Anthony. - How are you?
I want a hug. Nice to see you.
So nice to meet you.
Even though I'm not practicing law right now
because I'm raising my children,
I do love being involved with the Innocence Center
because it gives me a way to still be involved
in the legal world, but to also do a little bit
for humanity and to give back.
What do you need in your closet?
I have one suit in my closet, and blue sounds really good.
Yeah, blue goes with everything,
and plus, you can use the coat for a sport coat as well.
- Okay, thank you. - Yeah, absolutely.
So, I'll pick some fabrics and I'll be right back.
Okay, great.
My intent in meeting with you
is so that I can help newly exonerated people assimilate
back into life easier.
Being involved in the Innocence Center just really brings
to light how messed up our justice system is.
There are so many people in prison
and they're wrongfully there,
and when I sit down and talk with exonerated persons,
their stories are so crazy
that you actually think to yourself,
"How did they fall through the cracks?"
I read your case, and I know the charge was attempted murder,
- and it was mayhem. - Yes.
The evening that the event happened,
there were like three people hanging out,
and then someone said something about like a car outside
and then someone left to go out to the car,
and then that's when they were shot, right?
- Mm-hmm. - But that was not you.
No.
I remember thinking, "My mom is gonna fix this."
- Right. - Because I'm 15 years old.
You're 15, right?
Yeah, and so I'm thinking like, "My mom's gonna fix this."
Right. This just goes to show you
how decrepit the justice system is.
First of all, there's a lack of expertise
when it comes to public defenders sometimes,
and also the problem is with juries actually listening
and actually asking, "Is this enough evidence
"to convict someone of a crime?"
Because a lot of times it's not.
So, I know that the actual perpetrator
- was your half-brother. - Correct.
Was he in prison at the time?
He had his own trial at the same time that I did.
But for something different, though.
- Yes. Yes. - Correct?
I read that he didn't want to come forward
and say that he was the actual perpetrator in your case
because he knew that you didn't do it,
so he thought you would just get acquitted.
Mm-hmm.
So he took the fall for it,
but the half-brother thought he would be acquitted.
Acquitted because he was the one that actually did it.
Right.
But then he spent 18 years in prison.
How do you feel now?
I feel blessed. I feel happy. I'm healthy.
- One day at a time. - Yes, absolutely.
That's amazing.
Do you want to look at some fabrics
while we're sitting here?
Yeah, I'm so glad that I get to be a part of it.
Yeah, I'm going to need some help.
So, yes. I will help you.
- Okay. - I think that's a good color.
That's beautiful.
There needs to be policy changes that protect minors.
There needs to be more checks and balances
between prosecutors and police.
And being involved with the Innocence Center
has really opened my eyes to that.
And so, if I can bring awareness to anyone out there,
then I'm doing a service.
This whole suit will just kind of contour your body.
So, when you get done with your final alterations
and everything, we're going to do,
you should be able to walk out
and go to a fashion shoot no problem.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
I appreciate it.
You're supposed to be in a car seat.
I'm not a baby anymore.
Oh, thank you.
Good job. All right, let's go. Come on.
- Oh, yeah. - I'm starving.
Hey, we have four for barbecue.
I love We Meat Again.
I know, yeah.
Okay. Oh, over here? Okay, thank you.
Come my love, Bandon, right here, honey.
Oh, my gosh, I can't wait.
Look, look, look.
They have Korean phrases.
You want to practice them, Mom?
- Yeah, I do. - Oh, God.
I know...
- Did I say it right? - I think so.
Kaili taught herself Korean
and I'll say, "Oh, I'll have the da, da, da."
And I'll pronounce it.
And she's like, that's embarrassing.
And she'll re-say it for me.
Hello is...
Ahnyeonghasaeyo.
Gamsahabnida.
The only phrase I know is...
Means...
That's all I know.
So I yell that in traffic or something
so I don't yell curse words in front of Bandon.
Hello, welcome to Baekjong, guys.
Hi.
My name is Ken.
I'll be taking care of you guys today.
You're going to order whatever meat you guys want.
And then, I'm going to help you guys cook it over here.
Can I get you guys started with any drinks
- or anything right now? - Yes, we want soju.
Kaili, what do you want to drink?
Oh, can I get a Coke?
I'll be right back with the drinks for you guys.
- I could eat these for days. - It's good for you.
I am obsessed with kimchi.
I think it's just in my blood.
It just runs through my veins, you know.
Can we get a brisket and then a...
- I guess a pork belly? - Pork belly?
I wish I had been introduced into Korean culture
a lot earlier.
You know, I love that Jenn talks to Dominic about his roots.
We talk about adoption. We talk about his birth mom.
I never had that.
That's amazing she does that.
[Matt chuckling]
All right, brisket's all ready for you guys.
You guys can grab it off the grill whenever you like.
- Okay, thank you so much-- - Gamsahabnida.
Well done. All right, guys.
Are you guys excited to go to Korea?
Yeah.
What are you most excited to go for, Kaili?
I think there's a Hello Kitty World there.
I'd like to see fellow Koreans.
We'll definitely see a lot of those.
Fellow Koreans.
I decided for my 40th birthday,
I wanted to go to Korea to meet my birth mother.
They located my biological mother
in the same town where I was born.
A small farming town.
So she knows...
She knows that I was looking for her.
...that you were looking for her. Wow.
We're going to be there obviously sightseeing,
but we're all going to be there trying to find,
how do you say grandma?
When you're adopted, your life is this puzzle
and the bottom right corner is missing.
And when I go back,
I feel like that's moving that puzzle piece
to finish the puzzle because then I'll feel whole.
The city that I was born in is like southwest of Seoul.
Are you going to find your birth mother?
I hope so.
What's your real name?
Yong-hwa. That's my real name.
Yong-hwa.
I love you, Yong-hwa.
Coming up...
- Hi, everybody. - Hi.
- Hello. - Hi.
Can I talk to you?
Um, no.
* Hey, let's get in bed *
* It's time to celebrate *
Nightmare.
I have no color in my wardrobe.
We're just going to make it work.
You really have no other choice but us.
Look, Togo.
Sit. Sit.
Say, "She looks pretty."
When I was doing my boudoir shoot,
Shannon Bedour came with me and I was so glad.
She really lightened the mood.
- Gorgeous. - Yeah.
Do a hair flip.
- That was cute though. - Oh, there you go.
This woman has gone through hell.
I just want to remind her
of how amazing she looks, how strong she is.
And I want to memorialize it and give it to her.
She's 60.
Yeah. Isn't she pretty when for 60?
Get down.
Oh.
Oh, God.
[phone ringing]
Hi.
- Hi, Katie. - Hi.
Shut up.
I know. How are you feeling about today?
Are you anxious?
I think that's fair.
You don't want to go backwards.
Oh, I know.
Okay, go get a dress.
- Bye. - Aye-yi-yi.
Oh, my gosh, it's so pretty.
So, we have our Victorian view patio for us today.
All edible flowers from our garden too,
on the place setting.
Oh, this is gorgeous.
Did you get the gifts that I sent?
- Yes. - Do you like it there?
- Maybe off to the side. - We'll move that for you.
Then, I will put the place cards out.
- Thank you for doing this. - Of course.
Oh, my God, look, little tea things.
60 is a milestone and it's a year of change for me.
I mean, I don't even have my children here
to celebrate with me,
so it's kind of like Shannon's 60 and alone.
I'm a spinster.
I'm delivering a bit of a surprise.
Okay.
So, I'd like for them to come in first.
I'll come in last,
and then I'll give them my surprise.
Okay, I love it.
And then, we'll just get that all out
of the way and then have fun.
* Life is for the living and I'm gon' live it *
I love it here.
This is one of my favorite places.
- It's beautiful. - Hi.
We're here for our friend's birthday.
Right this way.
So beautiful.
- Please enjoy. - Shannon's not here yet.
Wait, is there a seating chart?
- Oh, she's at the back. - You're here.
I'm right here. Perfect.
- I like that. - Yeah.
Should I put this here?
These are like falling apart already.
It really is a good picture.
Isn't it? I know. She looks amazing.
- She's going to blush. - I know.
Can I get a mimosa and a Diet Coke?
I want to try some tea.
Absolutely. I'll bring that out for you.
- Hi. - Hi.
Oh, my God, I thought you were Tamra.
You guys look so much alike.
You do.
Okay, I'm here. This is beautiful.
How many drinks did we get?
I've got a Diet Coke and a pomegranate mimosa.
I would do her whole situation.
So, her whole situation.
Yeah, I like what she's got going on. Thank you.
Hi, everybody.
Hi.
Where am I?
You're here, honey.
Can I talk to you?
Now?
Yeah, just quickly.
Uh, no.
- Okay. - Okay, listen.
I wanted to talk to you friend to friend.
I didn't want to go home crying and feel like sh--.
I probably wasn't in the spirit to do
the private conversation at that time.
Heather now approaching Emily just feels very calculated.
She cannot just be in the moment.
She has to always remove herself, step away,
come up with the perfect thing to say,
and then come back,
and then she wants to have the conversation.
It doesn't feel genuine.
And it's like your goal should be share your feelings,
and communicate and make it better with your friend.
- Hi. - Hi.
- Hi, beautiful. - You're right here.
Can we just talk for a few minutes?
All right.
This birthday tea party, it's about Shannon.
I don't want to make it about us,
but if I know Heather, it will just build.
- You want to hold my hand? - I do.
Oh.
All I can hope is that maybe Heather
just has maybe just a little ounce of compassion
about what I was trying to convey.
First of all, let me say that I was so excited
to be in a fashion show.
- Yeah-- - I'm going to get upset,
because this is very triggering for me.
- I hear you. Yes. - Okay?
When you hang two dresses next to each other
and one's really small and one's big,
and I get the big one, and Alexis gets the small one,
I mean, it makes you feel badly.
Okay.
- You're gonna wear this dress. - Okay.
And it's going to look fantastic.
You and Alexis are wearing the same dress.
- Okay. - You like?
- Yeah. Yeah. - Good? All right.
Then, the next thing was, like, the oversized jacket
and then you have to understand, in my mind, what do I think?
Why are you giving me the oversized jacket?
And then the next outfit was, like,
you have to bring your own pants,
and from my viewpoint,
I thought everybody was bringing jeans
for that last thing.
So, when I realized that I was the only one,
where do you think my mind went?
I can't fit into clothes.
- Yes. - And I know you didn't do it
on purpose, but you have to understand my viewpoint
and my psyche.
I felt like maybe you didn't see
that I'd lost 40 pounds over the last year.
Do you understand?
That's so crazy.
No, listen. This is me.
Like, you know I think you look fantastic.
It's all I've said to you is how great you look.
I know you don't understand this,
How pretty is that?
Garnish with an edible orchid.
- Oh. - Edible?
- Have a bite. - Eat it. Eat it.
- It's like a salad. - Let's go for it.
What does it taste like?
- It's not that good. - That good, huh?
- Hi. - Hi.
Wow.
You guys look beautiful. Is Shannon not here?
- Not yet. - And Emily's not here?
Heather and Emily are talking.
I felt like maybe you didn't see
that I'd lost 40 pounds over the last year.
- Oh! - Do you understand?
That's so crazy.
I've been made fun of and I've been called names.
It always hurts to feel like
you're bigger than everyone else.
And so for once, I thought that I got to not be that.
And I just felt like that again.
I hear you.
That's all I needed, honestly.
I've learned you can't negate someone's feelings.
Throughout my life, of course, I've struggled with body issues.
I'm a woman. I'm in Hollywood.
And I would never want Emily to feel like
I would intentionally do anything
to make her feel anything other than fabulous.
Jenn, I want to apologize.
I know we need to talk more about it
but I just want to apologize.
I want today to be fun and nice
for Shannon, but I just want to say I'm sorry.
Okay. Let's have that discussion another time.
Yeah, for sure. I don't want to have it here,
but I don't want it to be awkward
and I don't want us to not make eye contact
or anything like that.
I love it.
I'm interested in resolving this,
but I've done this with her so many times
and it goes nowhere.
I'm exhausted by this pattern, like exhausted.
Can I tell you my side of all of this now?
- Absolutely. - Okay.
The only reason I chose you and Tamra
to wear the oversized moto
is because it's a badass jacket
and you two are badasses.
The reason why I had you and Alexis wear the dresses
is because you have the best figures.
You're both tall. You're both curvy and voluptuous.
If any moment you weren't happy,
if you could have told me,
I would have whipped something else out.
But I never wanted to complain or say something.
I get it, but you know what?
We are friends, Emily.
If you are upset with me in the future,
will you please just call me and we can talk about it?
- Can we do that? - Absolutely. Yes.
- Okay. - You know, I really appreciate
that Heather says, I hear you.
I just wanted her
to have a little bit of understanding
of where I was coming from,
and I feel like that finally resonated with her.
You know I love you.
I love you too.
I embrace that and I'm happy with that.
Why is the birthday girl so late?
- She wants to make an entrance. - Oh, okay.
Well, hello.
- Oh, hi. - You look cute.
Look how cute all this glassware is.
I know, it's super pretty.
This place is adorable.
There she is.
- Birthday girl. - Hi!
Oh, you look so pretty.
You look gorgeous.
You look beautiful.
I just want to say, I am so excited
that you guys are all here.
I have a little gift for each of you,
so I'd like you to open that up now.
- Now? - Okay.
Did you see what I got you? Look at your picture.
Oh, stop it.
- Wait, did everyone see? - Oh.
Yeah.
I'm going to be the ring girl.
I look like a madam in a brothel.
Well, a hot madam.
Shannon looks like a madam.
That's prostitutes, right, we're talking about? Right?
I think she would be a phenomenal madam.
I think she would have, like, the most fun hen house.
Do we open the box at the same time?
Yes.
One, two, three.
- Oh. - It's some tea.
Because we're going to have a brilliant time.
Brilliant.
I would like to invite you guys to go to...
[cheering]
That was so fun.
That's the real birthday party.
I've never been to London.
- I haven't either. - I've never been to London.
- I've been to the airport. - Oh, so have I.
- That's it. - I've never been to London.
Yes, Shannon!
I love London, I've been many times.
We're going to have a little bit of tea,
maybe some spotted dick.
I love Princess Kate.
And I love Harry Potter and Hermione.
And I love...
Nope, that's it.
That's what I love about London.
- Here's from me. Love you. - Guys, this is a lot.
Okay.
Thank you.
- Thank you so much. - Ooh. Gorgeous.
- I love these. - Those are nice.
Heather, that's way too generous.
- Oh, my gosh, enjoy. - You know my size.
It's your 60th.
I love them. Thank you.
You're so welcome.
- Happy birthday. - Thank you.
She does like Ferragamo.
By the way, Gina can tell you,
I showed her the receipts for every single thing.
- Okay, let it go. - Okay.
On Valentine's Day,
I bought him those loafers he was wearing.
I'll ----ing write the check to Shannon right now
for the $400 shoes.
She really loved that.
She was happy about the receipts, Shannon.
Well, happy 60th birthday.
- Thank you. - You look amazing.
- Thank you. - Love you.
Next steps. Next steps. Whatever they may be.
- Cheers to your next steps. - Next steps.
- Whatever they may be. - Cheers.
Whatever they may be.
Oh, look at this.
Oh, wow.
Thank you. Do you want to put it here?
It's very heavy.
Wow. That is something.
It's got a message.
Is it from you guys?
No.
Thank you so much.
Is it from Tinder?
From Grindr.
Grindr's the gay one.
- Oh. - Isn't it?
Well, I don't know.
Who's it from?
It's from Alexis Bellino.
**
Who's it from?
It's from Alexis Bellino.
Oh, my gosh.
Can you read it?
It says, "Happy 60th."
"I genuinely hope this olive branch can bring us
"a fresh start as you begin this new decade.
"May God bless you with happiness
"and good health on your milestone."
There's an olive branch.
There is?
Oh, yeah.
- What are your thoughts? - An olive tree.
You know what? I appreciate it,
and I really don't want to spend today talking about it,
but it's nine weeks too late.
I feel like there's been a lot of unkind things done
and I have no interest in being friendly with her,
and I don't think anywhere on this universe,
anyone in my position would feel differently,
so that's how it is.
How many peace offerings does Alexis want to offer
to Shannon while simultaneously being involved in a lawsuit,
talking sh-- about her, making her life hell?
I mean, give me a ----ing break.
It's definitely a difficult position to be in.
For sure.
I'm sure her coach told her to do all this.
I think it's horrendous that you're being coached by John.
Like, what kind of person does that?
You're poking a bear, and I haven't been
- coached by anyone. - Okay.
You really want to keep lying about him?
You're going to go down.
The coming after me didn't work, so now the coach is saying
that you've got to be overly nice to her.
Oh, my God.
We're going to blame it on John.
This is what Shannon does.
Why can't Alexis just send her flowers to be nice?
It's-- Shannon's exhausting.
I have to create boundaries for myself
and that's what I'm learning.
So, I'm-- You know? I'm kind of-- I'm out at this point.
Things keep happening
and I know you all saw what came out in the press on Friday
and it's just mind-boggling to me
when I offered everything he wanted
and his answer was no.
I tried to call you that day.
- On Friday? - Oh, yeah.
And then you butt-dialed me.
You were crying.
Well, because they said, do you want to make a statement?
And I said, absolutely.
Can you wait 30 minutes until I speak to my attorney?
And then I got a text five minutes later
no, they're not going to wait.
So, yeah, I was upset because I offered him
what he wanted, and I don't need to.
Issuing a press release about this lawsuit?
John's trying to smear me.
Because he's this good guy, and I'm not paying him back.
I hope that you guys understand
that there have been a lot of things coming at me recently
that could have, in my past, taken me down,
but I'm doing everything in my power not to let that happen.
But exposing myself to Alexis has not been healthy
and I need to create healthy boundaries for myself.
What the real issue is here is that I have your ex-boyfriend.
That's what the real issue is. So, guess what?
If you don't like it, there's the door, Shannon Bedour.
Wait, I have a question, though.
Are you going to send a thank you note?
Oh, [bleep], Emily.
Well, I pre-wrote a text to Alexis.
- Wait, what? - I wrote a text to Alexis.
I haven't sent it yet.
Okay, this is what I said.
"Hello, Alexis. It's Shannon Bedour.
"I am hosting a trip to Europe with my friends
"and I just wanted to make it clear
"that you are not invited."
- Shannon! - [women cackling]
Shannon, this is bad.
Do you want somebody else to tell her?
Yeah, then you guys go ahead and tell her.
- I'm fine with that. - Why don't we--
- We can tell her. - I'm not just going to
stand by and let people try and hurt me.
I think it should be more like,
we're not on good terms, so maybe--
No, no, there's no maybe!
I feel like I'm drawing my strength from myself.
I know that I'm a survivor. I'm not a victim.
It's my 60th birthday.
You're damn straight you're not coming on the trip.
I'm ----ing sticking up for myself today.
- That's what I'm doing. - That's okay.
It's your birthday.
Sorry. It's a little harsh.
- Yeah. - It's a little--
We gotta soften it just a tiny bit.
Okay, you know what? Do I need to list off again?
No, no, no, no.
I don't think you should say that.
I think you should send it.
My hope is Katie and I can sit with Alexis
and lovingly try to help her navigate her feelings on this.
I can make it make sense for Alexis
without it being painful for her.
Maybe we should go around the table
and everyone share their favorite memory with Shannon.
One of the funniest memories of all,
we somehow fell into the pool.
- This is the drag queen-- - No, no, no, no!
We're laughing.
My favorite is when we were in Cabo
and then we tried to ride the--
- Pinata. - The pinata.
[screams]
Oh, my God.
I gotta get off of my bare ass.
One of my favorite things is when we're on a trip
late at night and being just stupid.
- Hey Shannon! - Wait, throw one.
- Throw one. - Oh, my God!
You're trying to beat me?
Oh, my God.
We laugh so much.
- Thank you. - I love those times.
I really can't wait to have some laughs with you guys.
- I can't wait. - It's gonna be fun.
So, see you soon in London!
In jolly ol' London.
- Cheerio! - Cheerio!
Cheerio!
Coming up...
[knocking on door]
There's a doorbell.
Hey!
Hi!
Oh, my God, look how cute you look.
Oh, you have food. Hallelu'.
Yes. Have some of this.
Let me get a couple little plates for us, okay?
- [doorbell ringing] - She rang the doorbell.
- Hello! - I could have walked over.
- Is Katie here? - I'm here.
This is gorgeous.
- Let's walk in here. - Yeah.
Do you want me to help you carry this?
- Nope, I'm good. - Okay.
Oh, wow!
How pretty, Alexis!
And then let me get my diet Coke.
I think Alexis is owed someone face-to-face to say
"Hey, this is maybe not the trip for you."
I'll sit here.
Let's just give Alexis a couple drinks.
We can chill.
And then we can be like...
"And, but it's great to see you.
"Thanks for the wine." And then we'll go.
How was it? Did you guys see the flowers?
I sent her a bouquet.
- It was gorgeous. - Are we going to move forward?
- No. - No.
Why?
She said she should have done it eight weeks ago.
- Why now? - Why now?
Hold on!
Why?
I'm extending an olive branch
and I'm still ----ing getting always sh-- on.
My last effort was to extend an olive branch.
Unfortunately, I keep hitting a brick wall.
I want peace in the group. That's it.
So, she has a text message for you.
So, you might want to check your phone.
I thought maybe she sent it.
- Did you hear it? - Go get your phone.
- John, do you have my phone? - Wait, is he here?
Shannon sent a text. This is awesome.
I am praying to sweet baby Jesus
that Shannon has toned the wording down.
It's a little softer.
- Read it. - But read it to us.
Okay. "Hello, Alexis. It's Shannon Bedour.
"I am hosting a trip to Europe with my friends
"and just wanted to make it clear that you are not invited."
Well, we did encourage her to soften it a little bit.
"That should be quite understandable
"given these circumstances.
"Thank you for the flowers,
"but I am not interested in any olive branch."
You know what?
I've tried it all, girls.
- I know. - Now, I'm ----ing done.
But-- [sighs]
What is she so hung up on?
It's very hard to move on.
Well, she can't move on because of the lawsuit.
I mean, it's very hard. If you guys were just moving on,
- I'm sorry. - that would be different.
Her actions have caused all of this.
If she didn't borrow the money
and she paid it back,
we wouldn't be in this situation, would we?
I didn't want to take legal action,
but my hands were tied as I was days away
from crossing the statute of limitations
on being able to do anything legally.
She 100% knows these are loans.
We have evidence.
I have proof of that.
Shannon sent me an email admitting that it's a loan,
so the comments about these being gifts
are patently false
and Shannon has an interesting relationship with the truth.
Now, you can see it. It's in the tabloids.
It's a legal battle.
How did it get to People?
Was that you and John that took it to them?
Here's what happened.
John said 70.
She said sure, but you have to have a muzzle on.
We're not putting a muzzle on John.
Not going to happen.
Muzzle talking about the non-disparagement.
That and yeah.
And other things or just that?
Just that.
[indistinct]
[laughing]
Do I think Alexis leaked it?
[bleep]. Yeah, no, she didn't.
Stop it, go, next.
Well, I do know she has a good relationship
with people at People.
So, maybe she is the one that gave the story to People.
Ugh. I hate even saying it.
I want to be ----ing Asian Switzerland.
You know what?
I won't be around this group.
But that's not fair to us, Alexis.
I know, Alexis.
I have loved getting to know you.
- I know. - Maybe we just do things
not with Shannon there.
I'm...
I'm done.
I don't want you to be done.
- I'm done. - Okay.
I'm done.
Okay, we'll go. Yeah.
I love you guys.
Are we getting kicked out?
Thank you for being the horrible communicator of--
The horrible news.
Oh, I've never been kicked out of any--
Wait, I did get evicted.
- Bye, girls. - Bye.
Oh, sh--.
It feels like she's pissed at us.
- I know. - Did she just slam the door?
Yes, but I didn't do anything.
[Alexis crying]
- Holy sh--. - No, that's bullsh--.
We didn't want to come over here and do this.
I for sure didn't want to come over here and do this.
We had to come tell her to her face.
Somebody had to tell her.
- Okay, well that was fun. - Yeah, that was great.
Love you, good night.
Next time on The Real Housewives of Orange County.
- We'll have a spot of tea. - Okay.
- Say cheerio! - Cheerio.
Wait, is that Buckingham Palace?
That's ---ingham Palace.
[screaming]
No, no, no, no, no, no.
I don't find this fun at all.
- Are we going to bring up the-- - The Jeff Lewis thing?
There's something you said that was a lie.
The fact that you're bringing this up, you know what?
- Shannon. - No, stop it.
- No! - I'm going home.
I don't need this sh--. Wow.
