She read the text messages that the two had shared.

Then she found out that him and Kendra went to San Francisco so that she could meet his parents.

She found out that the two were planning this trip to Cancun together.

She found out that Ricky was even planning on visiting Pleasant Plains to meet Kendra's parents and attend the town's fall festival.

She realized that the pair was getting serious.

Not only that, but she was jealous.

She was pissed that him and Kendra were going on all of these nice vacations together, but Ricky never took her anywhere except to meet his parents.

She saw pictures on Kendra's Facebook page of all of the things that they did as a pair, and Brenda was not happy to see those things.

To me, again, I think the fact that they went on these vacations together is probably because Kendra could pay her way,

Ricky probably was not paying for Kendra to go on all of these vacations, and he probably didn't want to pay for Brenda's part in the vacation.

She probably didn't have the money to be going, so that's probably why they went on more vacations.

I don't think it's like Ricky all of a sudden was just treating this other woman so much better.

I think it was a situation of money at that point, but I digress.

That doesn't really matter, but I do just want to say that because...

Some people might find that a little bit salty.

But either way, rather than trying to leave Kendra threatening voicemails or like physically stalking her and leaving her threats and mailing her things or reaching out to Ricky to tell him off or beg for him to come back or cry or whatever, she stayed quiet.

She stalked in silence.

But then, she realized that she needed to take action.

She needed to get Kendra out of the picture if there was ever a chance that Ricky would get back together with her.

Brenda started by asking other friends about getting revenge.
