I actually just got a wonderful selection of herbs from there that I cooked some garbanzo beans with, so I had a nice, bright, healthy, herbaceous meal to start off the new year.

He's like, yeah, ready to pop off for Daddy Day Club? Meow. Yeah. Are you?

Dun, dun, dun. And he's like, so where are you from? She's like, Jersey. He's like, oh, you have any roommates? She's like, Molly. She just moved in. And so then Brad's checking with Molly and asking how last night was. And she's like, do you want to know the tea? He's like, yeah, I want to know. Emmy was going around telling a whole table of NFL players that she was single. Brad's like, shut up.

For real?

So now I did a lot of thinking about this. Okay. It sounds, if this is true, if Emmy was running a nefarious money laundering ring through Gwynn's and the store credit, if you really think about it, there's nothing wrong. She was given store credit, which has a certain value. Let's say it's a value of $10.

And then she takes $10 from the girls, and then she uses her $10 store credit to get the dresses. Okay. Emmy still has a value of $10 in her account. It's just in the form of money instead of credit. There's literally nothing wrong with that. I actually agree with you.

So check out subscriptions on Prime Video. Let's face it, weight loss can feel overwhelming. That's why HERS is changing the game. By providing access to GLP-1 medications plus expert care, they make your goals more achievable.

So, like, she got compensated from the girls. Now, it'd be one thing if her store credit came with, like, a 10% discount and she charged the girls fully. But if she's like... I was like, oh my God, Emmy used $10 of Restore credit and now took our $10 and pocketed it? It's like, yeah, it's called compensation. Right.

Or if they donated the dresses and she took the money because they donated. But like if she literally used her store credit and then she took the cash from the girls. Well, what do she got? You just want her to use her store credit on you guys for free? No.

Where did that expression come from? Ham-handed? Like, this is a little obvious. I don't know. This is as obvious as you having a ham on your hand.

Yeah, so I think, according to our old friend Google, the term ham-fisted originated sometime in the 1800s when having large, clumsy hands was compared to the look of large hands.

It grew in popularity. I mean, who did that? Like, nice ham hands.

Some of our favorite Housewives episodes are when the cast goes on group vacations. I mean, hello, we just watched SLC go nuts in Mexico. Or what about Scary Island? Or what about Morocco? I mean, it goes on and on and on.

So Molly is like, so she's getting these dresses for free and then charging you guys to pay her and then profiting off you guys. Well, if Emmy were getting the dresses for free, that would be bad. But they're also saying that she's using her store credit to get the dresses. Yeah. So Siobhan is like, Siobhan, I don't think they're thinking this deeply about it. It just sounds conspiratorial.

And so Siobhan's like, I'm pretty confident that's what's happening here.

That was good. Molly's like, I really hope that's not true because that's really sketchy. So now we cut to Emmy who has like a stanchion. I mean, this lady is cracked out right now. The fact that she's walking through the bar with a stanchion on her shoulder. She's like, we need a new stanchion.

I'm getting bored vibes from Will I feel like Will hates being a lawyer I feel like he hates the expectation that's been put on him by his father and he just wants to be back at Republic living the good life so Emmy is like sees Will cross the bar and is like she just sort of like gives a smile but she's still like she's still twirling her stanchion she's like come on she's like doing devil sticks with the stanchion

Yeah, it just puts me in a weird position as a friend. So then Brad and Will are talking. Brad's like, are you a daddy today? He's like, sugar daddy in training. So now Siobhan and Emmy sit down. And Siobhan is like, so we've always been good, I feel like. But regarding the dresses, when you said that you were getting store credit at Gwynn's, do you profit off us when we send you the money?

And Emmy's like,

And she starts doing this thing with her hands. Starts doing, like, a little, like, Terminator thing with her hands. You know?

They put on these dresses... At home, not when they walk through the door. That's how much they like them. And I mean, it's like, the girls really think that I would buy the dresses with the credit that I'm gifted and then charge them for it? And Siobhan's like, well, that's what they were thinking. I mean, if I think, like, someone's fucking me over, then I have a problem.

Why are you breathing into the stanchion?

so molly's watching and she's like i think emmy was premeditatedly named emmy because with that performance she could win an emmy because an emmy is something that you win when you perform on television it's an emmy a daytime emmy or maybe it's a creative arts emmy i'm not sure but there are a lot of ceremonies with that my dad so my dad won a tony because guess what his name is tony

Like, though, to think that I would take money from you guys and, like, charge you guys for it. Like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like. And Siobhan's like, okay, that's good to hear because I don't want to think that about you.

So Michaels walks up, he's like, what's up? Why are you crying? Did TJ give you a coffee for no reason? No, they think that I would use my store credit to buy the dresses, charge them for the dresses, and just steal from them. Even though if you really think about it, if I use my store credit and then charge them, that's just a simple compensation.

But either way, to be accused of that, like, what the fuck, Michaels?

Yes, you were crying at your birthday. So Will comes in. He's like, oh, gross. My girlfriend's crying. And he's like, Michaels, respectfully, I don't want to have to have any of those responsibilities then anymore. Do not put me on dress duty, okay? I will go to dress barn solely for myself going forward.

And by the way, Michaels also says, yeah, getting reimbursed and then pocketing the money.

reimbursement you of course you pocket the reimbursement because you just got reimbursed so then michaels is like there's no way that will just said that i mean he's like well no i'm not gonna use the store credit i'm i'm i am gonna only use the store credit on myself he's like no i was i was just checking that i had all the facts i'm a lawyer now so this is a funny rule

It's just, it's a fucking stab at my character. Do you get it? Do you get it? And now Siobhan's like, I'm bored. So Will's like, she's like, how long do we have to shoot this?

I have to go return my dress like wins. So Will's like, no, this is the first I've heard any of this. So I don't know what's going on at all, but just let me know how it goes. He just like leaves.

So now she goes to the back room and starts to hyperventilate. And she's like, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. And Michaels comes back and is like, come here, come here.

He's like, I know, I know.

her voice is echoing through the club and everyone's just like staring like oh my god it's a lot and then they show a crow flying away so then will doesn't care he's just drinking his beer and emmy's like are you kidding me michaels is like i mean you should like not be having this kind of reaction to something that's like not even true like we're at work like you need to keep it together and by the way you're wearing all white why are you crying you don't want to buy new dresses anymore so let's not ruin the one you already have oh

I don't think that's how stanchions work. Whatever!

so Will's like outside Will's like Emmy's upset like I don't want to go back there because I don't work here anymore and Joe's like yeah do you want me to check on her he's like yeah you go back there so he's like Will's good at consoling people so Will's like yeah send Joe he's good at consoling people so then Brad's like wow you've been together for three years maybe check on your girlfriend and

So Joe finds Emmy and he's like, oh, so people are being mean to you. I said, fucking girls, accuse me. I'm stealing from them. Where's that fucking Cloris Leachman girl? I bet she started all these rumors. Joe's like, no, you would never steal. Never. It's like, yeah, I would never. I would never do that.

Why do people say that like that's an insult? Like, I think the bigger insult is that you look so straight. Because have you seen the way straight guys look?

bad emotional, uh, support from what, like clearly like will, well, yeah, things are, things are bad there. And she is now putting all her energy into, I think like working out and like maintaining, like, like this, like everything's fine. Everything's, everything's fine. So the moment that like illusion breaks, like everything is not fine. Like she's just like, it's like the dam breaks and,

So Brad's like, he grabs her shoulders and he's like, stop, please. It's going to be fine. It's just a misunderstanding. It's going to be fine. No more tears. He's like shaking her like, it's going to be fine.

so she goes out and um uh she just starts screaming outside she's like i'm single what the did i miss michael's like okay i don't even know about that like seriously where are you getting this from are you like suddenly like girl tj right now all single she's like yes brad fred i am this close i am this close i'm gonna lose it i'm like wait so that this does not count as having lost it yet

Like, I'm worried that I look a little too straight. I'm wearing, like, a sweatshirt, you know, like... You know, like... Take a look around. Look around at your straight men and then see if that's actually a compliment.

So they're like, okay, okay. And TJ's like, okay, well, you're being a shitty boyfriend. Your girlfriend is inside crying right now. And you're just like, nah, I'm going to let them figure it out.

Yeah, you should do that. Please go home. So she leaves. And Austin's like, well, this has been an interesting first week at work. And Siobhan's like, welcome. So you would think this is the end of the episode, but actually... We now are bouncing around Charleston and we're seeing things and we see people getting ready, waking up and guys were half naked, et cetera.

And there's Brad is texting with Lake and he's like, I missed you at Republic. And she goes, text back. Oh, what are you doing right now? Eating in bed. You're in bed. What are you wearing? She's like, oh, well, shut up.

Let's have coffee with Molly and Siobhan. Siobhan comes out of nowhere, never seen it before. And now she gets to have the final scene of the episode. Wow. Yeah. So Siobhan's like- Well, Molly, I was going to paint the door tonight. Like seriously, I had the paint.

So I was going to do that and then watch housewives, which is so meta right now, if you think about it, but then you called and I was like, this sounds better. So guess I'm not painting the door. Great story, Siobhan.

i don't think that's i don't think that's being stood up on i think stood up that's just being canceled on that's like different like so molly is like either way unacceptable molly's like yeah i've had bad dates that i actually that was on like but most of my dates that went poorly are just like hilarious like it's almost impossible to embarrass me because i think everything's funny like this one guy was like sorry i can't make it because i've got to like stay in and paint my door like what sort of loser wants to paint their door am i right oh sorry siobhan

So Siobhan's like, something is like deeply going on with her though. Like, I don't know if it's like work stress or like maybe it's her relationship with Will.

I'm like disgusted. And have you seen the colors of their doors too? Am I right? Siobhan's like, yeah, he was hammered. I don't care if my boyfriend was on heroin. Molly tells us a man should never be talking about a woman's body ever, especially in front of multiple people you work with. Even someone I hated, I would never talk about much less someone you claim you love. That's crazy.

And Molly says, I think Emmy deserves better. You know what Emmy deserves? An Emmy. Because she performs. I don't know if you heard me say it earlier. It was really good. I just didn't want to get wasted. So anyway, that's coming from someone who doesn't really care for the Emmy ceremonies. Okay.

I mean, he'd be on Dateline, and I'd be watching the episode from prison. And Siobhan's like, really? He got a hosting gig? No, I would have murdered him. Is that why you're in prison? Yes, Siobhan. Oh, my God. I brought you into the final scene of the episode. Why are you being like this?

Well, everyone, that was a fun episode. And that's that. We are going to go talk some Traders Talk. And we'll be back later this week. We got some blow deck, a sailing yacht, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. Buy your tickets for the crappies or come see us on the road elsewhere across the country at watch crappies.com.

Okay. It was a lovely scene. And I was, it was like what he was sharing was like very emotional. But when he said that, like when he puts all of that onto TJ, oh, TJ made me feel like the way my mom made me feel. I feel like that's, I think, a little unfair. Although, to be fair, TJ vacuuming around and going, well... I see you're just treaded some dirt into my freshly vacuumed rug.

She's the Queen Bee. It's Sarah Lemke. Shannon out of a can and Anthony. Let's take off with Tamla Plain.

Thanks a lot, Michaels. That is very motherly. So I can understand from that angle, but I think it's a little much too. I think it's, I think it's fair to say TJ, you were just weirding me out and I liked you and then you were playing weird games and I didn't like it. I don't know. I just think it's so much to put like his trauma with his mother on to

Their house brand 365 by Whole Foods Market has tons of wellness essentials at daily low prices. For example, high quality supplements and delicious smoothie ingredients like almond milk and organic frozen fruit blends, plus a rainbow of organic produce like green beans, cherry tomatoes, easy to prepare, bags out. I mean, the list just goes on and on.

Well, then Michael's also brings in another very interesting dimension to all this. And he says that dating has been really hard because he's like, I'm not your stereotypical white guy, which is all you've dated TJ. And I'm just going to always feel like I'm never going to be good enough. And TJ is like, That's a little upsetting, to be honest.

But Michaels basically is like, you know, it's really hard to be a person of color and gay here in Charleston because most people here are white and they only look at me as exotic. And so he says that essentially people just want to hook up with him, but they don't want to take him home to mom. And that seems like a very real frustration. And that I can also see why he was...

particularly triggered by TJ. Cause if TJ is like, I just want to kiss him and then I'm going to run away. That probably adds on to the frustration that Michaels has probably felt in that, Hey, I like someone. And once again, like I'm just like an experiment for them or an experience as opposed to like a future.

Ronnie so then TJ says growing up in the south and then generation I grew up in there was like not that many people that were out so having an openly gay man show interest in me is different especially because he's like super super hot and I don't know what to do with that and I'm 33 and I want to settle down I mean sure having a vacuum is nice but you can't really have conversations with the vacuum that's actually a lie I have many conversations in my vacuum

It's actually too big of a gap if you ask me.

But also, Michaels, he really does seem like a very emotionally mature 21-year-old. But the truth is that we've actually met many in our lives, very mature 21-year-olds. But 21-year-olds are still 21-year-olds. Actually, Michaels is 22 now. But they're still 22. And there is a difference there.

between someone who's 22 and someone who's 33, which is why I'm always shocked when you have like an Al Pacino or anyone who's dating someone who's 22 or 23. Not that there can't be an age gap, but I just think that there's specifically someone at that age, you're still not fully baked. And so I just, I don't know how people do that.

I think, honestly, TJ, now that you've told me that, I think we should go on a date. Really? To a mining adventure where we learn about stats and how we can find out about data in different things.

Should have let him finish the sentence.

So Maddie enters a music studio, AKA someone's bedroom on the third floor of their house, their mom's house. And Maddie's like, this place is dope. I love it. And she meets Devin and he's just some engineers and producers or whatever.

Yeah. These are two gentlemen who have learned how to use GarageBand. And so Maddie has a new track called Poppin' It. Dope. And she has this monologue. And I'm like, I don't know when it's too soon to make certain jokes. I'm just going to hedge on the side of not making jokes yet, but I really want to make a bunch of jokes. But Maddie is saying,

Meeting DJ James Kennedy last year, it's like changed the game.

yeah yeah it's not great like oh my god like dj james kennedy he is kind of like the way i look at him is kind of like one of the best people of all time it's like yeah especially being like i want everybody to like download this song and think of me and james kennedy together you know james kennedy the king of poppin

On Prime Video, you can add over 100 subscriptions like Max, Apple TV+, and Paramount+, all in one app.

i want my brand irreversibly meshed with james kennedy yeah no popping it no no no popping it especially yeah you're right this was like your joke was no there were some other jokes i was gonna make about some dj puns that just i don't think it would i i'm gonna i just i i think i'm just gonna hold off but man we'll come back in five years you know i'll be like hey ben do you remember that southern hospitality recap you're really holding back on james kennedy

And Maddie basically is saying that she gave this vocal spot to Grace Lilly because she loves Grace Lilly's voice, but also Grace Lilly hasn't been doing much, doesn't really have any direction since she left Republic. And then we see a flashback to her in her bedroom, and she's just received one of those neon signs that you can customize that says Wavy Baby.

She's like, okay, I'm going to hang it up here. That looks great. Well, another day of work done. Okay.

Hold on. I need the lyrics. Can I have the lyrics? Because there's only four lines, but she needs the lyrics. And so now here's her singing. She's like, I'll just keep on popping it like there's no stopping it. La, la, la, la, la, la, la. Motherfucker. That was great.

100 more subscriptions to unlock a world of movies, TV, and sports all in one app.

You know, it's just too much. Like, I love the lyrics. I love the meaning, you know, of la, la, la, la, la. I love what that means. It's just like, it's a lot. It's like, I think it's like too much lyrics, Maddie. And she's like, ah, there's four lines. It's too much.

Cuts her going, dropping it, dropping it, dropping it.

And are you going to also watch Severance season two? Because everyone's talking about that one.

And then she's like, Maddie sets up her DJ table outside in the garden. And Joey is like, hey, is there room back here to dance? She's like, yeah, there's a fan back here. It feels nice to finally have a fan, literally. So then inside, TJ and Michaels are both behind the bar. And TJ's like, what's up, dude? That was my platonic way of saying hi.

So now everyone's, like, trying... Now it's time for the, like, come on, come on, come on, every, like, two-for-one cheese sticks in Republic, everyone, come on in, come on in.

I haven't slept in about four weeks. I love the gym.

She's like, okay, cool. Well, let's go to the gym. Let's go to the gym. You feel fat? Let's go to the gym.
