This week on The Real Housewives of Orange County, drama continues between Vicki and Gretchen and two people go in for surgery. 

 

All of the men showed up to Bunco, except for Brooks and Jim. Brooks couldn’t make it and Jim just wasn’t invited. That definitely didn’t make Alexis happy. It’s a bit strange that Slade was invited, but not Jim. If you’re going to incite one jerk, why not invite the other?

 

The moment the excitement calmed down, the Improv got brought up again. Vicki confronted Slade about saying she looked like Miss Piggy. Gretchen felt like she had sat back for too long and listened to Vicki say horrible things about Slade so she stepped in and said something. That turned into a screaming war between Vicki and Gretchen. 

 

Heather and Terry were very smart to stand off to the side and just watch the drama unfold. Vicki chose to leave Bunco, but the rest of the party carried on without her. That’s not to say the drama stopped. Alexis and her nose job got brought up. Alexis was sitting at another table and overheard the conversation so she got really upset for no good reason. Unfortunately that meant Heather and Terry were brought into the drama because they were at that table. 

 

The next day Slade and Gretchen were in the car when Gretchen told him that after Vicki left the Bunco party, she continued to send text messages to Gretchen about how upset she was. When Tamra went to visit Vicki at work that day, Vicki said after Briana’s surgery she was going to apologize to Gretchen, but she also expects an apology back. 

 

Don went to visit Briana at her apartment. They spent some time together to talk about Briana’s surgery on her tumors. When Vicki was driving Briana to her surgery, she started freaking out and acting like she was going to throw up. She is so scared for her daughter and so worried about how she is feeling that Briana feels like Vicki cares more about herself and how the surgery will affect her than how it will affect Briana. At surgery, they are going to be removing Briana’s thyroid and her lymph nodes to determine whether they’re cancerous or not. 

 

Speaking of surgeries, Alexis went in for her nose surgery. Jim took her to support her because she is incredibly nervous about the surgery. The doctor explained the surgery to her and then she couldn’t stop crying. Jim gave her a big hug and made sure to say a prayer that everything would go smoothly.
