The Real Housewives of Potomac
Season 9, Episode 3: “Momma Knows Best”
Grade: B
We pick up where we left off, with Gizelle kicking Mia, Stacey, and Jassi out of her event for arriving after 8 PM. Jassi takes me out by saying: “We arrived at 20:03! That is military time!” Technically, Gizelle told them all to arrive by 7:30 PM but Ashley did not relay that message. Ashley strikes again! Gizelle sends Ashley out with a tablet so they can still donate to the Brain Tumor Society. Ashley hurries after them, to their sprinter van, where Jassi closes the door on her like Nicki Minaj confronting the cops in Amsterdam. I’m never disappointed when a housewife is in a sprinter van.
The next day, Jassi arrives at Stacey’s to debrief the GnA event they were thrown out of. Stacey wants to know why Gizelle has security. Gizelle having security is one of my favorite running gags on this show. Ashley arrives and is not sorry about the ladies being kicked out. Jassi has renamed the event “Gangsters n Alcohol.” LMAO. Jassi apologizes for closing the sprinter van on Ashley, who at first tries to pretend it bruised her, until Jassi says she tested it out herself and knows that the sprinter van closes too slowly to injure anyone.
Karen arrives to this gab sesh, where Ashley calls out Karen for her deception. “You didn’t even know what the award was for last week,” Ashley insists. Ashley accuses Karen of deflecting from trying to steal the ladies away from Gizelle’s event purposefully. Karen responds, of course, by deflecting! She brings up Michael “pinching asses” and how Ashley couldn’t discuss it publicly because of court proceedings. Karen gets on her Scarlett O’Hara mountaintop about her car crash: “I could have died!” Ma’am…
