Y'all said most everything I was going to, but when Brianna brought up the wine and mud, Vicki did nod and say yes, so I do think Judy put her muddy shoes on the couch. Not to defend Ryan, but if he'd been bullied by Vicki on not leaving a speck of dust anywhere, and some lady threatened to sprinkle fairy dust on him, I almost get him being rude. Who puts their shoes on a white couch anyway? I will say I have a had time being on Judy's side cause I despise her daughter so strongly. Lydia running off crying was only because she was being ignored, not the serious topic being discussed.


I've been a Tamara fan from day one and disliked Gretchen. I have now changed sides and feel the fool. I haven't seen any lies from Gretchen, but tons from Tamara. I had also liked Heather. Her defense on the onion ring debacle was just silly. "It was MY party", gawd what a full of herself winch.


Lets be honest, if you HAD to have one of these ladies as a friend who would you pick? I'd pick Gretchen. She has done nice things for others, and doesn't seem as stuck on herself. Oh, and I'd pay to listen to the Brooks tape.

Vicki is the exact same way. Brooks could have been her rageaholic husband too. Who knows, she'll probably be stupid enough to get back with him. Vicki won't even acknowledge Brooks is wrong and makes excuses for him. If I had a kid and they told me my boyfriend wanted her beat up, he'd be out the door, no questions asked. No excuses. Vicki and Brooks are scum.

I just don't understand how grown people in their 50's act so adolescent. And why do any of these women need approval from the rest of the group (of fake friends) concerning anything going on in their lives??!

Vicky having a nervous break down on national TV was too much.

It's funny how people condone such behavior from someone who claims to love her children but puts her abusive boyfriend on a pedestal.

Agreed. Vicki was not upset about the things Brooks has said or done, but rather that he was being called out for it.

Just finished the reunion. Brookes is 100% creepy, scary, abusive. In the past I've said Vicki needs to figure out out for herself and Brianna needs to stay out of it. Now I know better. I always thought he was a creep, never liked him, but now I understand Brianna's wanting so badly to keep him away...if not from her mother then from her and baby Troy. Vicki is completely blind. If some man ever told my daughter's husband that he should start hitting her I'd kick him to the curb, but not until I'd told him exactly where to shove it. He needs to slither back under the slimy rock he came from. Creep.

I don't know what TWOP is, but maybe we have stronger women on this board.

it's MY perception. Let's keep things cool and not attack another's opinion. To ME she is fat. ok? Maybe it's because of the way she dresses; which shows the fat rolls and heavy legs.

YES!

Every time Brooks has been on camera, I've watched him like a hawk.

His first tactic is always fake flattery and supportive dialog. But as soon as he meets the slightest resistance, his eyes go cold and cruel, and he says something borderline threatening. That's the real Brooks.

That's why when Brianna revealed that she's seen text messages he sent Vicki telling her she's fat and ugly and no one will have her, I believe it! It's totally in character.

He tries one tactic, and if that doesn't work, he switches to his mean threatening side. He changes his approach whenever it's not working for him. Whatever he thinks will get Vicki back under his control is what he uses. He preys on her emotional needs and her insecurities.

I don't believe he's attracted to Vicki very much. He wants her money. Whenever he runs into a brick wall with getting what he's after, he turns more cruel. I think he's a real sociopath.
