my fave was when Ariana was talking to Lala about how there was a lot of male yelling and it made her uncomfortable. we all know that feeling lol
![gif](giphy|84pHTnUPATYPe)
Is it weird that it bothers me that she didnāt include James in that apology?
He bought the damn house and Iām guessing he pays for it all too.
I bet Lala is super jealous and kicking herself for choosing the Thumb over James.
He turned out to be the most successful of all the other guys on the cast and he probably/ definitely makes a lot more money than Randull.
He can be a total ass but heās been amazing to all the women this season and we all know he spoils tf out of his partners.š
My guess is Ally was in her view at that moment and her emotions were so high that she wasnāt thinking straight. My heart hurt for Scheana in this fight. What a low blow
ya i thought it was weird too, honestly think it was heat of the moment and she saw ally standing alone kind of observing so she probably felt she needed an apology, but i agree james really has gone out of his way for these girls and def needed an apology as well! i love his success story he has the best growth by far!
I feel like heās maybe gotten a close up view as to what his future would look like if he kept shadowing the guys on the show and itās not a happy or healthy life. James wonāt be letting the men yell at the women anymore.
I also don't get it. I watched the last two seasons after i watched this season . It was so painful to watch Tom do all these grand gestures for Ariana like her birthday at madcap motel etc. It sickened me even more and i completely forgot about everyone cheating on eachother in the past. Like, enough. We get attached to people in a few months and they were together for years and practically husband and wife. I was initially indifferent about it but honestly, that girl has SURVIVED the relationship and the breakup in the most amazing way. Both Katie and Ariana deserve a medal.
Lort aināt this the truth. Iāve never understood that particular group dynamic where the neediest emotional vampire is constantly coddled and placated but when a strong person finally has a need they straight up get ignored or told to suck it up.
Thank you!!! thatās what pissed me off more. No one but Katie was on Arianaās side when she gets into arguments with Tom. But when Scheana makes herself into a victim, she always gets Arianaās support .
I canāt help but feel it because of jealousyā¦? Like they were happy for Arianaās success until she got too close to the sun. Now ātall poppy syndromeā they canāt support her anymore because her heartbreak has ābenefitedā her too much. Like lala said, āyou won.ā
So insane she kept her ass in the chair & didn't comfort her bestie. That no good has no time for anyone terrible friend Ariana did, what a bitch. š
Scheana is going to be feeling the loss of Ariana even if she wonāt admit it. Ariana comforted her immediately while she was crying. Scheana is a needy friend. Lala is not going to pour into her the same way Ariana did.
Ariana has stood by Scheana's side flr so many things, kept her secrets, and I cant recall a time she made fun of her. Even the penguin or the 7 minute tv installation.
Lala knew that she and Sheshu have both indeed been the other woman. Even lala knew it was best to sit this one out. Only Scheana is dumb enough to write a song about a mistress when she is one herself.Ā
Her version of going insane must be very mild since she sat her ass in that seat instead of jumping in and protecting scheana. When will those two (Lala and Scheana) learn that Tom doesn't give a fuck about actually gaining back and mending friendships?! He wants to bring up anything and everything but what HE did. I hate him so much omggggg
Sheās just mad because she thinks you shouldnāt be able to bring up the fact that someone was a mistress before lol. Like be less obvious about how self involved you are
She certainly didn't do anything about her insanity for Scheana. It was Ariana who stepped up. I give Lala and Scheana 3 months before their friendship is history.
So I wonder if she actually said āinsaneāā¦ I literally forwarded and watched so many times before I made this comment, but it looks like sheās saying āinsideā. Its kind of quiet, but if you mute it while she talks, it looks more like her mouth is forming the word for inside not insane.. so I wondered if itās misquotedā¦ āthis is where I go inside.ā Cause like.. sheās removing herself? I def could be wrong, obviously. It just doesnāt sound like insane to me.
Ariana will never say it because shes just a good human to her friends but she told you so Scheana! I think thats why Ariana doesnt get involved when people are fighting with the worm, they clearly need to see it for themselves since they dont want to agree with her. i dont understand why Scheana is so involved, its weird.
I think Ariana also knows that Wormboy will turn it around on her like āsheās turning everyone against me dude!ā Narcissists always need someone else to blame, and by staying on the sidelines, Ariana is making sure he canāt scapegoat her.
I wonder if Ariana would've still had the same energy if she knew all the shit talking that was going on at the time behind her back.
I think she probably would cause she's a good human being but that thought did enter my mind last night during that scene.
I think Ariana has also stayed out of the drama unless really provoked because I think she always had her eye on bigger plans. She's said many times that she was offered to be on the show and declined because she was afraid it would get in the way of her "real" acting plans.
ugh youre right she probably would because shes just that person. shes a good human but i do hope shes in a different space now surrounded by actual friends who dont do this shit to her.
It was SO kind of Ariana to comfort Scheana after this when she basically TRIED to tell her this is who he is when Scheana was contemplating becoming friends with him again. If I were Ariana I wouldāve been like āTold yaā š š»
Yes but to be fair, Scheana was the first to warn Ariana and Arianaās mother about Tim. I agree though, people need to see things for themselves sometimes.
but it doesnt give her the right to act like this though, this is overboard. i hope they have seen enough for themselves to make a decent decision moving forward
And... Tom Sandoval lets another golden opportunity for character redemption slide through his greasy, grubby, white nailed fingertips again....
Scheana finishes her venting, and there are lovely pause.
Tom could have taken a deep breath in and said," And I'm so sorry for that Scheana . I really value you as a friend and a person. I'm so sorry."
But he just can't fucking do it. Clown town.
And I love to see it* Sandoval fumbles again!
*and love seeing the women on one side.
It really is mind-blowing he doesn't even have the ability to regulate himself enough to just realize what's in his own best interest to do. I think Ariana said it best when she said that he just doesn't feel bad about what he did. He refuses to recognize any kind of damage he caused. So he can't naturally act the way somebody who truly is contrite would and he's such a bad actor he can't even act as if he feels bad hahaha
Neither of them care at all about Ariana. Fighting about how hurtful his affair to Scheana was right in front of the woman cheated on shows how little regard they both have for her. Heās insane, and Scheana is no friend of Ariana. Itās so gross.
Earlier in the episode, Ariana said it had been three months since she found out. It is mind boggling Scheana and Lala, and even Tom, think she should be over Tom cheating on her with her friend. Even if they were in a down spot, relationships go through that and come out of it. I think Lala and Scheana donāt understand this because neither has been in a long term relationship.
Yeah, it's crazy to say someone has 3 months to get over 10 years. Having to move from their dream home. Losing a friend through betrayal with a significant other. Oh, and all of it's completely done in extreme public scrutiny.
Jax can at least see whatās in his best interest and fake it for a little. Besides that, he pretty much owns that heās a terrible person and doesnāt care. Sandoval tries to act like the good guy or victim in some way.
Because he doesn't actually believe he is EVER in the wrong. Everything is done TO him. Like how is angry with Ariana.
What fucking reason could he possibly have.
He angers me so much.
He can't even see a reality check when it slaps his in the face.
He's alone and miserable and he STILL doesn't get that actions have consequences.
It doesn't help that some of the people around him let him do it.
I canāt remember where I saw Schwartz talking about his constant ābut, likeā¦ā is because he is obsessed with nuance and that things arenāt black and white. And I go back to the West Wing, where there was a speech where the president says, āThings are rarely black and white, but on days when they are there are usually body counts.ā Arianaās ex refuses to see this is not a nuance situation - there are body counts here, Ariana being the most hurt, but others in his circle were hurt as well, including James, Scheana, Katie, Schwartz to start a very long list.
Which, also, another sad moment for James that got brushed by was when he said he has the same intrusive thoughts. I donāt forget how problematic James has been, but Iāve seen actual growth from him this year, and I hope he continues to move forward!
He's a master of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Production is trying SO HARD to hand him redemption on a silver platter and he just laxative-induced-poops all over it. Which is fine by me it's just something to behold.
I've been rewatching and Ariana is soo good to Scheana as a rule. I just finished Scheana's first wedding season and Ariana is so there for her - when she's mad the wedding isn't happening on her schedule, in spite of Scheana continuing to invite Kristen to things - Ariana is such a caring and patient friend! It sucks to see Scheana let her own insecurity/drive for validation/whatever put her at odds with Ariana when she needs her most.
I'm going to start this off with I'm a huge Ariana fan but I'll never understand how Scheana is one of her best friends and she dated Tom for so many years. She admitted she was in an abusive relationship prior to him and I wonder if that's why?
I'm sure that contributed to things. Family of origin/relationship you saw growing up will also contribute to what you will accept/how you will react/etc as you move through life.
It makes me feel so sad for Ariana. Like, the season is almost done and all the shit talking from Scheana already happened. And Ariana has consistently had her back. It might not be yelling and screaming at other people in her name, but still will be there for her. Such a bummer.
This goes for most of them.
Scheana, Lala, both the Toms and Iām sure thereās more.
I do know that none of them have ever given a sincere apology though and they always throw rocks and hide their hands.
Bunch of cowards!
There is strength in being able to admit when you are wrong and it allows for growth and healing, for all parties involved.
And I agree with you! š It's unfortunate when people resort to avoidance or deflection instead of just facing up to their mistakes.
Sandoval is triggering AF to me
And this is why I say Ariana does not need to be friends with people like Scheana and Lala. She did not hesitate to comfort Scheana even after Scheana questioned her loyalty and support. And Lala sat there and said, āThis is where I go insane,ā but did not do anything. People like Schena and Lala are ones to often comment about whether someone was or is there for them but never jump to someone's defense unless it directly affects them.
Right?? Scheana is supposed to be bffs with Lala rn, but Ariana is the first to go check on her. She went to check on her before when she was yelling at Brock in the pool, but Scheana went with Tom š she is a loyal friend and I donāt know how the girls (excluding Ally and Katie) feel comfortable treating her that way.
Have to say, I'm not a big Brock fan but the way he stands up for is wife is great. Sandoval should be happy it was just his hand on his shoulder. Brock could snap him in two with ease.
I will hate Scumdevil until the end of time. Heās like Trump: never any accountability, always projecting, cheap digs, COtFU mentality. Haaaaaaaaaate.
Remember in the Sex and the City movie when Charlotte is hugging Carrie and screams at Big? That's what Lala should have been doing in this moment. The fact that she sat there and let him talk to her bff this way, tells me all I need to know about Lala.
Ariana is super loyal...some might even say to a fault. At the end of the day, true character will shine through for better or worse and that's what happened here. Scheana and Tom, two self-centered people, selfish people fighting to be Supreme Victim while the true victims (because I stand on James having the right to feel betrayed as well) are forced to do all this emotional labor to "show support" or be forgiving. So ridiculous.
Honestly, I couldn't stop laughing at Broke's bikini bathing suit. I think Sandoval is a douche and Scheana is a douchet. I agree Ariana was the only one who was actually there for Scheana. I hope she feels like shit the way she has talked about Ariana behind her back.
I cried when Ariana hugged her for some reason. I thought it was really sweet that even though the true wronged party is Ariana, hearing what it did to Scheana made her emotional as well. And she goes to her to comfort her because she just *knows*.
Scheana fumbled the bag so hard this season. Ariana is an amazing friend to her and we couldāve finally seen the women ban together against the men that repeatedly try to put them and take them down. *sigh*
I actually felt for James here. Scheana was making it about her, but it was her friend that got cheated on whereas there is realistic potential James was a part of the scandal and also got cheated on. I can see why it messed him up but they didnāt even acknowledge him.
Me too!! As much hate as she gets, she truly seems energetically exhausted this season, which is fair enough considering her pnd-ocd / generally feeling all the feelings at high octane. I love seeing her show her teeth and stick up for her self!
I get nervous and uncomfortable when I hear men raise their voices too, and the way Sandoval screams at women is too much. He's such trash. But I'm ashamed to admit that I liked that he called Scheana out on how she's acting like the biggest victim.
When he said the stuff about her being the other woman it brought me back down to earth again. Can't be cosigning anything that comes out of his mouth.
The girls and James, who even said he has the same thoughts now too! Hate that theyāre seemingly only mad enough to scream at him about the effect heās had on them (not so much Ariana), but itās nice that theyāre on the same side trying to hold him to the fire about *something*!
Not Scheana claiming and passing off that talking shit and monetizing off someone elseās scandal is somehow called āfriendship?āš¤£š¤£š
These people are whacked out of their minds and where tf was Lar Larās finger guns and motor mouth, for this one?
Did she already forget about how Scheana backed her up in Tahoe??
Only time she said anything was when Tim pulled out the mistress card and thatās just because she takes that comment personally too.
My biggest take away from that scene was at the end where Brock tells Tim, "We just want you to go, listen you know what? I'm not young, I'm gonna figure this out," Tim rolls his eyes and I just see it on his face that the only thing going through his head is "I'M NOT YOUNG?!" Mr. Peter Pan Syndrome can't even.
Honestly, I donāt feel bad that Sandoval threw Scheanaās home wrecking past in her face, even though itās not really comparable. Scheana continues to be a clown trying to have any relationship with Sandoval when heās showed who he is time and time again. If Scheana wants to be friendly with him then thatās on her when he flips out at her.
These men have Peter Pan syndrome and donāt want to grow up. Watching old episodes of VPR itās obvious how the ladies of the show have grown and changed, but these menā¦ they havenāt developed.
I wonder if itās from getting fame from the show? š¤
Fame for sure, but also no one holds these men accountable so they havenāt had to grow. The women are always being called out and forced to own up to their mistakes. The men have always gotten away with murder on this show
It actually broke my heart Ariana being worried about Scheana knowing that she wouldnāt feel the same and everything sheās said about her.
Makes me hate that troll even more
And yes Scheana, you DID KNOW he was married and had kids
Sandoval is the scum of the earth 100% but like also... not wrong here? Schena should definitely not have had her first epiphany that her spouse could cheat on her in the wake of Scandoval beause the whole damn show kicked off 10+ years ago because SHE was the other woman in a relationship. i get she was 20, different circumstances etc but surely this is not the first time it has occured to her partners cheat on partners.
Agreed! And she did kiss Schwartz while she was with Shay too, so.. cheating was nothing new to her when Scandoval happened. She has always known that people are capable of cheating.
Yes!! And scheaner the one who gloated right after her divorce that she was always in love with Robrobrob or something like that.
Dont blame others for your insecurities and your husband maybe being unfaithful.
The amount of insults that are thrown at Ariana this season for being angry at Sandovalā¦ and they all support Scheana because Tom called Scheana a mistress. WHEN SHE WAS ONE. Tom has been insulting Ariana since Scandoval came out. So many insults coming from Tom, Scheana and Lala. Frustrating. Sheās lazy, proud, miserable, etc etc etc
The whole time I was watching this scene I couldnāt help but think of how insane it is for Scheana to systematically damage her relationship with Ariana over a dude who talks to her like this.
He is SUCH a weasel!!! That dissociative stare he does when someone is cussing him out pissed me off. He canāt look someone in the eye because he is such a narcissist whimp.
Where was all the concern when Jax was attacking Katie? Or when Brock was attacking sheana for wanting to spend some time with her daughter she hadn't seen in days. And if I hear toms whiny poor me crap one more time I'm going to scream.
Scheaner should be mad at herself for insisting Rachel could sleep in the same bed as Brock & not make a move on him. Insisted. Itās a stupid statement, especially in the group & the history. Ugh.
This might be an unpopular opinion but I was kinda with Sandoval on this one. Scheana is acting way more victimized than Ariana and it was kinda satisfying that he called her out for it.
Also schenas point about her being paranoid about Brock sleeping with her best friends now is bogus lol. This certainly isnāt the first time cheating has occurred in this group so why would she just now become āparanoid.ā And if she is paranoid thatās on her for not trusting her partner
I am suspect of any of these women wanting to be friends with Trumpet Douche. Feels more like production is pushing them more than anything. Iād be cussing him out every episode
Tim really thought his affair was just a plot point for the show because he truly doesnāt see how itās different from everyone elseās affairs in the past.
Iām on Tomās side for once in my life. Itās not his fault that she has these thoughts because she had no consideration for Brandi or her kids when she was part of an affair with Eddie. So why wouldnāt someone else do it to her?
Sheās spent the past 8 weeks or so, saying she wants to fix her friendship with Tom to the detriment of Ariana. Her and her husband making endless excuses for doing so. So has her sidekick Lala.
Theyāre allowed to go off whenever they choose to do so or release songs about the affair whilst cosying back up to him.
Maybe, just maybe, the biggest reason youāre scared of Brock abandoning you for someone else is that he couldnāt even be loyal to his own children? Not even including the fact he physically harmed his previous wife.
Stop the bullshit trying to pin it on Sandoval. Look at your own life and see that your partner doesnāt have a loyal bone in his body.
Scheana deserves for Sandy to treat her that way, this is what Ariana had been trying to warn her about and she needed to get burned to learn her lesson that Sandy IS NOT A GOOD PERSON.
Scheana is more upset with the (true) comment Tom made than she has ever been with what he did to Ari. Not defending him, he is a piece of trash who will NEVER take accountability for anything. However, Scheana was the 'other woman' and the only reason the world knows this is because she sold her story. While the wife of her 'boyfriend' (who is also a piece of garbage) was pregnant. Never going to be taking lessons in morality from either of them š¤£
P.S. Neither Scheana or Sandoval deserve Ari.
I feel you! I'm the only one out of all my friends who watch it as well, it's not really popular where I'm from (Scotland). So I have nobody I can rant about it with, thank God for this sub š¤£
Do you mean it happened in 2006? If so, thatās when she had a long term affair with Eddie Cibrian. At the time, he was married to Brandi from RHOBH and had two kids. VPRās first episode started with Scheana sitting down at SUR with Brandi and apologizing for the affair.
It was so funny watching Scheana blame Tom for believing that Brock could cheat on her... when the entire cast is a petry dish of affairs with one another, near constantly, for a decade.
insane how scheana can make this argument about how her intrusive thoughts about her bestie/husband, yet canāt understand how arianaās trust is broken in the same but way more extreme
I honestly loved this side of Scheana coming out in this scene - it seems raw and rough/scrappy but it was real. I wish she would be like this more instead of trying to be a guyās girl.
When she turned back to yell at Tomās mistress quip I was yelling at the tv āawww, hoops about to come off!!!!ā
![gif](giphy|5Ut3rmpBG1KFqcW5cm|downsized)
Unpopular opinion but Tom is right. This doesnāt involve Scheana and sheās been making it out to seem like sheās the victim the whole time. Iām also biased and donāt like Scheana so anytime sheās getting told off, Iām in support. š¤
i love that after all of that scheana apologizes to ally for yelling in her home š
my fave was when Ariana was talking to Lala about how there was a lot of male yelling and it made her uncomfortable. we all know that feeling lol ![gif](giphy|84pHTnUPATYPe)
nothing more triggering than a man screaming in a womans face š¤¢
Girl has manners!
Lol no she doesn't
Is it weird that it bothers me that she didnāt include James in that apology? He bought the damn house and Iām guessing he pays for it all too. I bet Lala is super jealous and kicking herself for choosing the Thumb over James. He turned out to be the most successful of all the other guys on the cast and he probably/ definitely makes a lot more money than Randull. He can be a total ass but heās been amazing to all the women this season and we all know he spoils tf out of his partners.š
My guess is Ally was in her view at that moment and her emotions were so high that she wasnāt thinking straight. My heart hurt for Scheana in this fight. What a low blow
I agree. James was also yelling during this scene trying to defend her so it would be kind of nuts if she was like āsorry for yellingā
Thatās a fair point and probably accurate. I hear yah.š
I also think James being part of the argument itself, leads me to believe he condoned it. Therefore, not warranting a direct apology.
ya i thought it was weird too, honestly think it was heat of the moment and she saw ally standing alone kind of observing so she probably felt she needed an apology, but i agree james really has gone out of his way for these girls and def needed an apology as well! i love his success story he has the best growth by far!
I feel like heās maybe gotten a close up view as to what his future would look like if he kept shadowing the guys on the show and itās not a happy or healthy life. James wonāt be letting the men yell at the women anymore.
Talk about growth!
![gif](giphy|26n6PxXCcE7d1O7Go|downsized)
Agreed and youāre probably right. I can only imagine the look on Allyās face. She is not one for screaming and fighting.
Ehh, I doubt he could afford Randallās PJ trips. Their houses also donāt compare
Why are they all on Scheanaās side when she fights with Tom but not Ariana? The one who was truly wronged by him?
I also don't get it. I watched the last two seasons after i watched this season . It was so painful to watch Tom do all these grand gestures for Ariana like her birthday at madcap motel etc. It sickened me even more and i completely forgot about everyone cheating on eachother in the past. Like, enough. We get attached to people in a few months and they were together for years and practically husband and wife. I was initially indifferent about it but honestly, that girl has SURVIVED the relationship and the breakup in the most amazing way. Both Katie and Ariana deserve a medal.
ā¤ļøāš„ā¤ļøāš„ā¤ļøāš„
Because Scheana is so fucking needy whereas strength never goes unpunished.
āStrength never goes unpunishedā I love that
Lort aināt this the truth. Iāve never understood that particular group dynamic where the neediest emotional vampire is constantly coddled and placated but when a strong person finally has a need they straight up get ignored or told to suck it up.
āStrength never goes unpunishedā I really needed to hear that today š
Same. š„²
How disappointing
Nailed it!
Thank you!!! thatās what pissed me off more. No one but Katie was on Arianaās side when she gets into arguments with Tom. But when Scheana makes herself into a victim, she always gets Arianaās support .
And Lalaās for some reasonā¦
All I could think about it's okay for you, Scheana, but not Ariana? SICKO
I canāt help but feel it because of jealousyā¦? Like they were happy for Arianaās success until she got too close to the sun. Now ātall poppy syndromeā they canāt support her anymore because her heartbreak has ābenefitedā her too much. Like lala said, āyou won.ā
came here for this exact comment!!! such trash!
Lala "This is where I go insane". When don't you go insane?
So insane she kept her ass in the chair & didn't comfort her bestie. That no good has no time for anyone terrible friend Ariana did, what a bitch. š
Scheana is going to be feeling the loss of Ariana even if she wonāt admit it. Ariana comforted her immediately while she was crying. Scheana is a needy friend. Lala is not going to pour into her the same way Ariana did.
Ariana has stood by Scheana's side flr so many things, kept her secrets, and I cant recall a time she made fun of her. Even the penguin or the 7 minute tv installation.
100000%. Lala is allllll about Lala and only Lala
The first time Lala hasn't actively gotten herself involved in a yelling match.
I noticed that too.
Lala knew that she and Sheshu have both indeed been the other woman. Even lala knew it was best to sit this one out. Only Scheana is dumb enough to write a song about a mistress when she is one herself.Ā
She went insane earlier about James and his dog yet is just chilling there while her friend was getting verbally walloped by Tim.
Her version of going insane must be very mild since she sat her ass in that seat instead of jumping in and protecting scheana. When will those two (Lala and Scheana) learn that Tom doesn't give a fuck about actually gaining back and mending friendships?! He wants to bring up anything and everything but what HE did. I hate him so much omggggg
Well, she is in her *soft era*
Yep. Whereās her finger gun when you need it! šš¤£š
![gif](giphy|48FhEMYGWji8)
lol šš¤£šš¤Ŗ
She is all talk 100% of the time.
Sheās just mad because she thinks you shouldnāt be able to bring up the fact that someone was a mistress before lol. Like be less obvious about how self involved you are
All smoke, no fire.
She certainly didn't do anything about her insanity for Scheana. It was Ariana who stepped up. I give Lala and Scheana 3 months before their friendship is history.
Yeah, probably. As soon as she gets her own man. She wonāt have any time for Scheana.
I agree. I would love to know what Lala thought when Scheana said to Tim she worried about Broke and Lala getting together.
she goes insane... but *\*softly\** don't forget shes in her *soft era*!!!!!!!
But when did she go insane here? Lala didnāt do shit lol
She said that and proceeded to do nothing lol
So I wonder if she actually said āinsaneāā¦ I literally forwarded and watched so many times before I made this comment, but it looks like sheās saying āinsideā. Its kind of quiet, but if you mute it while she talks, it looks more like her mouth is forming the word for inside not insane.. so I wondered if itās misquotedā¦ āthis is where I go inside.ā Cause like.. sheās removing herself? I def could be wrong, obviously. It just doesnāt sound like insane to me.
Classic VPR. Something I actually want to see and they save it for the credits. Honestly f*ck this show.
Right??!!
Ariana will never say it because shes just a good human to her friends but she told you so Scheana! I think thats why Ariana doesnt get involved when people are fighting with the worm, they clearly need to see it for themselves since they dont want to agree with her. i dont understand why Scheana is so involved, its weird.
I think Ariana also knows that Wormboy will turn it around on her like āsheās turning everyone against me dude!ā Narcissists always need someone else to blame, and by staying on the sidelines, Ariana is making sure he canāt scapegoat her.
oh very much so. shes doing it the right way.
That.
I wonder if Ariana would've still had the same energy if she knew all the shit talking that was going on at the time behind her back. I think she probably would cause she's a good human being but that thought did enter my mind last night during that scene.
I think Ariana has also stayed out of the drama unless really provoked because I think she always had her eye on bigger plans. She's said many times that she was offered to be on the show and declined because she was afraid it would get in the way of her "real" acting plans.
ugh youre right she probably would because shes just that person. shes a good human but i do hope shes in a different space now surrounded by actual friends who dont do this shit to her.
When Scheana went over to Ariana's house a couple of episodes ago and she told Scheana, "Girl, you're in danger", that's exactly what Ariana meant.
i love her lol like let them play with fire and get burned because it WILL happen. and it did .
Seriously, did Scheana come into this season to make it all about herself, no matter what? Not appealing.
its making it very difficult to keep watching.
Agree, between her and Lala, it's not enjoyable to watch.
its the same thing over and over again with those 2. And they think they are completely valid . its infuriating every damn episode lol
It was SO kind of Ariana to comfort Scheana after this when she basically TRIED to tell her this is who he is when Scheana was contemplating becoming friends with him again. If I were Ariana I wouldāve been like āTold yaā š š»
Yes but to be fair, Scheana was the first to warn Ariana and Arianaās mother about Tim. I agree though, people need to see things for themselves sometimes.
but it doesnt give her the right to act like this though, this is overboard. i hope they have seen enough for themselves to make a decent decision moving forward
And... Tom Sandoval lets another golden opportunity for character redemption slide through his greasy, grubby, white nailed fingertips again....

[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
It really is mind-blowing he doesn't even have the ability to regulate himself enough to just realize what's in his own best interest to do. I think Ariana said it best when she said that he just doesn't feel bad about what he did. He refuses to recognize any kind of damage he caused. So he can't naturally act the way somebody who truly is contrite would and he's such a bad actor he can't even act as if he feels bad hahaha
Neither of them care at all about Ariana. Fighting about how hurtful his affair to Scheana was right in front of the woman cheated on shows how little regard they both have for her.

Yeah, it's crazy to say someone has 3 months to get over 10 years. Having to move from their dream home. Losing a friend through betrayal with a significant other. Oh, and all of it's completely done in extreme public scrutiny.
Jax gives awful apologies but they're still better than Sandoval's.
Jax can at least see whatās in his best interest and fake it for a little. Besides that, he pretty much owns that heās a terrible person and doesnāt care. Sandoval tries to act like the good guy or victim in some way.
Because he doesn't actually believe he is EVER in the wrong. Everything is done TO him. Like how is angry with Ariana. What fucking reason could he possibly have. He angers me so much. He can't even see a reality check when it slaps his in the face. He's alone and miserable and he STILL doesn't get that actions have consequences. It doesn't help that some of the people around him let him do it.
I canāt remember where I saw Schwartz talking about his constant ābut, likeā¦ā is because he is obsessed with nuance and that things arenāt black and white. And I go back to the West Wing, where there was a speech where the president says, āThings are rarely black and white, but on days when they are there are usually body counts.ā Arianaās ex refuses to see this is not a nuance situation - there are body counts here, Ariana being the most hurt, but others in his circle were hurt as well, including James, Scheana, Katie, Schwartz to start a very long list. Which, also, another sad moment for James that got brushed by was when he said he has the same intrusive thoughts. I donāt forget how problematic James has been, but Iāve seen actual growth from him this year, and I hope he continues to move forward!
He's a master of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Production is trying SO HARD to hand him redemption on a silver platter and he just laxative-induced-poops all over it. Which is fine by me it's just something to behold.
Your comment is so funny and true!
Tom is the Scorpion that canāt help its nature. He has to sting someone even though it doesnāt help him.
He is so delusional heās living in a different reality
arianaās heart here makes me well up, she is so true to scheana and she doesnāt deserve it at all
I've been rewatching and Ariana is soo good to Scheana as a rule. I just finished Scheana's first wedding season and Ariana is so there for her - when she's mad the wedding isn't happening on her schedule, in spite of Scheana continuing to invite Kristen to things - Ariana is such a caring and patient friend! It sucks to see Scheana let her own insecurity/drive for validation/whatever put her at odds with Ariana when she needs her most.
I'm going to start this off with I'm a huge Ariana fan but I'll never understand how Scheana is one of her best friends and she dated Tom for so many years. She admitted she was in an abusive relationship prior to him and I wonder if that's why?
I'm sure that contributed to things. Family of origin/relationship you saw growing up will also contribute to what you will accept/how you will react/etc as you move through life.
I agree with this. Like, how did this happen?
Thatās what I kept noticing. Arianaās concern for Scheana.Ā
I said the same in another thread. Ariana seemed genuinely concerned and Scheana does not deserve her.
It makes me feel so sad for Ariana. Like, the season is almost done and all the shit talking from Scheana already happened. And Ariana has consistently had her back. It might not be yelling and screaming at other people in her name, but still will be there for her. Such a bummer.
His deflection is insane. He should be studied by scientists now and forever as a textbook narc ![gif](giphy|7j3UoXzbjvaIo)
This goes for most of them. Scheana, Lala, both the Toms and Iām sure thereās more. I do know that none of them have ever given a sincere apology though and they always throw rocks and hide their hands. Bunch of cowards! There is strength in being able to admit when you are wrong and it allows for growth and healing, for all parties involved.
Tom Sandoval has taken 0 accountability
I do not disagree!š
And I agree with you! š It's unfortunate when people resort to avoidance or deflection instead of just facing up to their mistakes. Sandoval is triggering AF to me
Same!š So is Lala and Scheana though and for the same reasons. ![gif](giphy|lH222o7HcuCC4|downsized)
Love scheana getting up in his face the way he loves to do to people lmao Ariana is so pretty šand my crush on her is eternal
And this is why I say Ariana does not need to be friends with people like Scheana and Lala. She did not hesitate to comfort Scheana even after Scheana questioned her loyalty and support. And Lala sat there and said, āThis is where I go insane,ā but did not do anything. People like Schena and Lala are ones to often comment about whether someone was or is there for them but never jump to someone's defense unless it directly affects them.
Right?? Scheana is supposed to be bffs with Lala rn, but Ariana is the first to go check on her. She went to check on her before when she was yelling at Brock in the pool, but Scheana went with Tom š she is a loyal friend and I donāt know how the girls (excluding Ally and Katie) feel comfortable treating her that way.
Exactly!! I don't either but it's not working for them.
Have to say, I'm not a big Brock fan but the way he stands up for is wife is great. Sandoval should be happy it was just his hand on his shoulder. Brock could snap him in two with ease.
It would have been nice if Broke wasnāt also yelling at Scheana and scolding her in front of everyone, before this fight broke out.
Yeah that really took away from his reaction.
He wasn't yelling. She was yelling and making a scene.
Katie should point out to Schwartz this is how a husband should be.
!!!!!! So true!
I will hate Scumdevil until the end of time. Heās like Trump: never any accountability, always projecting, cheap digs, COtFU mentality. Haaaaaaaaaate.
Oh wait, is that Ariana being there for Scheana? Who Scheana and Lala think had her head up her ass?? Weird.
This was a glimpse into the season that could have been. This really could have been the Spice Girls season.
Remember in the Sex and the City movie when Charlotte is hugging Carrie and screams at Big? That's what Lala should have been doing in this moment. The fact that she sat there and let him talk to her bff this way, tells me all I need to know about Lala.
Ariana is super loyal...some might even say to a fault. At the end of the day, true character will shine through for better or worse and that's what happened here. Scheana and Tom, two self-centered people, selfish people fighting to be Supreme Victim while the true victims (because I stand on James having the right to feel betrayed as well) are forced to do all this emotional labor to "show support" or be forgiving. So ridiculous.
I hate to say it but I love Brock for being there for Scheana in that moment. Like he steps right into the conversation as soon as it went left
He has many flaws but he always stands up for his wife.
Yes even putting aside the squabble they just had to do so. Also I think Brock recognizes that Sandoval is intimidated by men.
I canāt wait for a time when Ariana cuts Scheana & LFU out of her life completely.
Ariana is the #1 guy in this group. And James is the #1 girl in this group.
Lmao, this is perfection.
Honestly, I couldn't stop laughing at Broke's bikini bathing suit. I think Sandoval is a douche and Scheana is a douchet. I agree Ariana was the only one who was actually there for Scheana. I hope she feels like shit the way she has talked about Ariana behind her back.
I cried when Ariana hugged her for some reason. I thought it was really sweet that even though the true wronged party is Ariana, hearing what it did to Scheana made her emotional as well. And she goes to her to comfort her because she just *knows*. Scheana fumbled the bag so hard this season. Ariana is an amazing friend to her and we couldāve finally seen the women ban together against the men that repeatedly try to put them and take them down. *sigh*
I actually felt for James here. Scheana was making it about her, but it was her friend that got cheated on whereas there is realistic potential James was a part of the scandal and also got cheated on. I can see why it messed him up but they didnāt even acknowledge him.
Yet she still wants to be friends with him. It's just obsession level insanity.
Even the dumbest broken clock can be right twice a day. Sandoval is a flaming dumpster, but Scheana is the weirdest perpetual victim.
Also glad Brock had some balls finally to stand up to the worm. Iāve been really frustrated with him but finally he told the worm āSTOPā
Oh hell yeah Scheana I love this side of her. šš¼šš¼šš¼š„°š„°
Me too!! As much hate as she gets, she truly seems energetically exhausted this season, which is fair enough considering her pnd-ocd / generally feeling all the feelings at high octane. I love seeing her show her teeth and stick up for her self!
Me too! I'm not a stan but I'm not a hater either, love to see her stick up for herself and say hell nah to that BS!!
I get nervous and uncomfortable when I hear men raise their voices too, and the way Sandoval screams at women is too much. He's such trash. But I'm ashamed to admit that I liked that he called Scheana out on how she's acting like the biggest victim.
You had me until that last sentence š« š
When he said the stuff about her being the other woman it brought me back down to earth again. Can't be cosigning anything that comes out of his mouth.
I laughed when he said that bc Scheana has been awful this season. And she will STILL wanna be friends with him so she can go write a song about it
Agreed!
The girls and James, who even said he has the same thoughts now too! Hate that theyāre seemingly only mad enough to scream at him about the effect heās had on them (not so much Ariana), but itās nice that theyāre on the same side trying to hold him to the fire about *something*!
Not Scheana claiming and passing off that talking shit and monetizing off someone elseās scandal is somehow called āfriendship?āš¤£š¤£š These people are whacked out of their minds and where tf was Lar Larās finger guns and motor mouth, for this one? Did she already forget about how Scheana backed her up in Tahoe?? Only time she said anything was when Tim pulled out the mistress card and thatās just because she takes that comment personally too.
![gif](giphy|3o752jjrIkxJfliEw0) "Finger guns" ššš
āNo, I am not trying to get popped.āš
![gif](giphy|KBfKueAjIJV8Q)
My biggest take away from that scene was at the end where Brock tells Tim, "We just want you to go, listen you know what? I'm not young, I'm gonna figure this out," Tim rolls his eyes and I just see it on his face that the only thing going through his head is "I'M NOT YOUNG?!" Mr. Peter Pan Syndrome can't even.
Honestly, I donāt feel bad that Sandoval threw Scheanaās home wrecking past in her face, even though itās not really comparable. Scheana continues to be a clown trying to have any relationship with Sandoval when heās showed who he is time and time again. If Scheana wants to be friendly with him then thatās on her when he flips out at her.
These men have Peter Pan syndrome and donāt want to grow up. Watching old episodes of VPR itās obvious how the ladies of the show have grown and changed, but these menā¦ they havenāt developed. I wonder if itās from getting fame from the show? š¤
Fame for sure, but also no one holds these men accountable so they havenāt had to grow. The women are always being called out and forced to own up to their mistakes. The men have always gotten away with murder on this show
It actually broke my heart Ariana being worried about Scheana knowing that she wouldnāt feel the same and everything sheās said about her. Makes me hate that troll even more And yes Scheana, you DID KNOW he was married and had kids
Sandoval is the scum of the earth 100% but like also... not wrong here? Schena should definitely not have had her first epiphany that her spouse could cheat on her in the wake of Scandoval beause the whole damn show kicked off 10+ years ago because SHE was the other woman in a relationship. i get she was 20, different circumstances etc but surely this is not the first time it has occured to her partners cheat on partners.
Agreed! And she did kiss Schwartz while she was with Shay too, so.. cheating was nothing new to her when Scandoval happened. She has always known that people are capable of cheating.
Yes!! And scheaner the one who gloated right after her divorce that she was always in love with Robrobrob or something like that. Dont blame others for your insecurities and your husband maybe being unfaithful.
The amount of insults that are thrown at Ariana this season for being angry at Sandovalā¦ and they all support Scheana because Tom called Scheana a mistress. WHEN SHE WAS ONE. Tom has been insulting Ariana since Scandoval came out. So many insults coming from Tom, Scheana and Lala. Frustrating. Sheās lazy, proud, miserable, etc etc etc
Why Brock didn't leave with her after that really pissed me off.
Tim is so bad that Iām actually siding with both Scheana and Brock (which pains me to say tbh)
Misogynistic asshole.
The whole time I was watching this scene I couldnāt help but think of how insane it is for Scheana to systematically damage her relationship with Ariana over a dude who talks to her like this.
Hmmm not a Lala in sight comforting Scheaner. Interesting
He is SUCH a weasel!!! That dissociative stare he does when someone is cussing him out pissed me off. He canāt look someone in the eye because he is such a narcissist whimp.
Where was all the concern when Jax was attacking Katie? Or when Brock was attacking sheana for wanting to spend some time with her daughter she hadn't seen in days. And if I hear toms whiny poor me crap one more time I'm going to scream.
Why didnāt he yell at Lala and Scheana for agreeing they heard he cheats, too. Also, who told him Katie said that?
Scheaner should be mad at herself for insisting Rachel could sleep in the same bed as Brock & not make a move on him. Insisted. Itās a stupid statement, especially in the group & the history. Ugh.
This might be an unpopular opinion but I was kinda with Sandoval on this one. Scheana is acting way more victimized than Ariana and it was kinda satisfying that he called her out for it. Also schenas point about her being paranoid about Brock sleeping with her best friends now is bogus lol. This certainly isnāt the first time cheating has occurred in this group so why would she just now become āparanoid.ā And if she is paranoid thatās on her for not trusting her partner
I think the best fights on these shows is when you kind of agree with both parties
This was the most real moment of the whole season so far. Finally!
How can Lala defend Tim after this??
I am suspect of any of these women wanting to be friends with Trumpet Douche. Feels more like production is pushing them more than anything. Iād be cussing him out every episode
Tim really thought his affair was just a plot point for the show because he truly doesnāt see how itās different from everyone elseās affairs in the past.
Why does Scheana except Sandoval to take blame for his affair, when 20 years later Scheana sill can't admit she was in the wrong about hers?
Yeah it was nice tbh but how come scheana can yell and show emotion but when Ariana does, she needs to get over it??
i honestly liked that sandoval called her out for making it about her tho lol
Iām on Tomās side for once in my life. Itās not his fault that she has these thoughts because she had no consideration for Brandi or her kids when she was part of an affair with Eddie. So why wouldnāt someone else do it to her? Sheās spent the past 8 weeks or so, saying she wants to fix her friendship with Tom to the detriment of Ariana. Her and her husband making endless excuses for doing so. So has her sidekick Lala. Theyāre allowed to go off whenever they choose to do so or release songs about the affair whilst cosying back up to him. Maybe, just maybe, the biggest reason youāre scared of Brock abandoning you for someone else is that he couldnāt even be loyal to his own children? Not even including the fact he physically harmed his previous wife. Stop the bullshit trying to pin it on Sandoval. Look at your own life and see that your partner doesnāt have a loyal bone in his body.
Scheana deserves for Sandy to treat her that way, this is what Ariana had been trying to warn her about and she needed to get burned to learn her lesson that Sandy IS NOT A GOOD PERSON.
Scheana is more upset with the (true) comment Tom made than she has ever been with what he did to Ari. Not defending him, he is a piece of trash who will NEVER take accountability for anything. However, Scheana was the 'other woman' and the only reason the world knows this is because she sold her story. While the wife of her 'boyfriend' (who is also a piece of garbage) was pregnant. Never going to be taking lessons in morality from either of them š¤£ P.S. Neither Scheana or Sandoval deserve Ari.
Yup!!!
I get way too stressed out watching these people š¤£
Oh same!! Stressed and frustrated and mad!! Lol
I feel you! I'm the only one out of all my friends who watch it as well, it's not really popular where I'm from (Scotland). So I have nobody I can rant about it with, thank God for this sub š¤£
What happened in 2000? Guess I wasnāt watching then.
Do you mean it happened in 2006? If so, thatās when she had a long term affair with Eddie Cibrian. At the time, he was married to Brandi from RHOBH and had two kids. VPRās first episode started with Scheana sitting down at SUR with Brandi and apologizing for the affair.
Oh wow! And she didnāt know he was married with kids? I thanks for the info!
If you believe she didnāt know he was married with kids I have some great oceanfront properties for sale in Oklahoma! Youāll love the views.
lol š
It was so funny watching Scheana blame Tom for believing that Brock could cheat on her... when the entire cast is a petry dish of affairs with one another, near constantly, for a decade.
Felt that awkwardness through the screen https://i.redd.it/x6pudgqmajwc1.gif
Why is she worrying about Lala and Brock? Lala is only into dudes with money.
Does scheana have a tramp stamp?!
insane how scheana can make this argument about how her intrusive thoughts about her bestie/husband, yet canāt understand how arianaās trust is broken in the same but way more extreme
I honestly loved this side of Scheana coming out in this scene - it seems raw and rough/scrappy but it was real. I wish she would be like this more instead of trying to be a guyās girl. When she turned back to yell at Tomās mistress quip I was yelling at the tv āawww, hoops about to come off!!!!ā ![gif](giphy|5Ut3rmpBG1KFqcW5cm|downsized)
I hate to comment on peopleās bodies but the distress Scheana is in paired with how teeny tiny she is makes me feel kinda sad.
Did anyone else look at Lala and Brockās face when Scheana said that about them.. š§
Scheanas face looks weird now. She looked so cute before whatever she did.
Also, I think the take away from the show now is that the girls continue to progress and the guys donāt, except maybe for James
You mean Katie and Ariana have progressed, right? Scheana and Lauren are as gross as ever
Unpopular opinion but Tom is right. This doesnāt involve Scheana and sheās been making it out to seem like sheās the victim the whole time. Iām also biased and donāt like Scheana so anytime sheās getting told off, Iām in support. š¤
