The dinner argument continues. Craig is drinking and getting agitated by the second.
What’s funny to me as they play flashes on shit that Venita was saying about Craig on interviews/podcasts and what not, one of the issues is that she thought Craig (and I recall Paige whining about this) should have stuck up for Paige in the allegations that she was cheating on him with this Joe D’Amelio dude.
I recall saying at the time, perhaps he thinks she was talking to this guy, or he isn’t sure. So like why would he be obligated to tell the public anything? He didn’t accuse her publicly. He just didn’t address it.
Now Paige has finally gone public with her relationship with this dude, that she was with immediately seen with, upon breaking up with Craig. So doesn’t it seem like she was cheating on him with Joe? Yes, it does to me.
Also if there was nothing done wrong, why was she hiding him and lying that she was single for several months when they were together?
And he had a fiance that spoke out during this time, that they broke up because she caught him cheating. So do the damned math.
This seems like a moot point now. But I’m just saying.
At filming over last summer, I don’t think Paige had come clean yet about Joe.
Venita’s going so hard to defend Paige. Why? Does she honestly think Paige Self-Absorbed DeSorbo cares if she lives or dies?
She’s busy counting all the money she made by using Craig for three years, which is the only reason her stupid pod became so successful, and she was able to get brand deals.
I found her ‘breadwinner’ excuse or flex, whatever the hell you want to call it, she used to FINALLY admit she has zero intentions of moving to Charleston, so ironic when the fact that she was making more than him, was BECAUSE of him.
Whatever, I know I harp on it, but I just can’t stand the chick. She’s a fucking fraud and a liar, and a whore.
I think whore is actually accurate, because she was sleeping with him in order to advance her career and make money. He was ten times more popular and liked than she was when they first got together.
Venita is mad Austen doesn’t stick up for her. Austen defends himself in his yap that he didn’t want to get involved due to how reactionary Craig can be when he’s pissed off. I kind of don’t blame him. Also Venita started the shit then wants to cry when she gets a reaction.
Shep acts surprised in his yap when the stupid ‘tell the person next to you what’s wrong with them’ game caused an argument. Please. It’s the only reason they do these idiotic games.
Venita refuses to eat when her meal arrives to gain more sympathy for Craig telling her to mind her business and stop the obsession with his life.
Salley forces Austen to make out with her in the bathroom.
Charley has to be happy to hear this. I’m sure she hopes that will cause Salley to leave her alone about Craig.
But probably not.
Salley is so boy crazy. She reminds me so much of Scheana on VPR. Guys aren’t into them because they’re too easy and come off as desperate. Guys don’t like that shit. It’s off-putting.
Rodrigo crawls into bed with Austen and Austen does NOT protest. Something I noticed is that Austen always says “Oh My God!” when Rodrigo starts coming onto him and/or touching him, as if to pretend he’s not loving it.
They act like they’re concerned about Venita when she and Craig had their little tiff at dinner.
I’m wishing she had more to discuss with the others other than how much she hates Craig for no reason whatsoever. He was kind of right at dinner, if she’s going to try to bully him around, he has every right to react and give it back to her.
Surfing or ATVing are the activity choices.
I guess when Ventia decided last year to go on a press tour bitching about Craig, she forgot how when she jumped into the pool, then remembered she didn’t know how to swim, and as the other guys stood there with their mouths hanging open, Craig jumped in and saved her ass.
Whatever. She goes with the surfing crowd, however says she’s not surfing (because she clearly can’t swim even though she denied that.)
Salley’s the only girl with a bunch of guys on the ATV activity.
Craig and Austen chat on the beach. Austen tells him how Salley seduced him in the bathroom. She’s gross.
Craig tells him that he and Charley kissed, which later turns into a whole big thing and not sure why. It’s pretty ridiculous given the age range of these people.
Austen reacts with an intense ‘wow’ to the very basic revelation.
Venita and Molly corner Charley on how she feels about Craig’s altercation with Venita at dinner. She proclaims she’s “not his keeper.”
She admits in her yap he shouldn’t be lipping off to girls like that, but she’s on vaca and doesn’t care right now.
Craig the supposed gardener asks if the agave plants are aloe, as they’re at a tequila tasting.
Austen promptly tells Salley “Craig’s been making out with Charley.”
Salley calls that ‘nutty’ and that Charley ‘lied.’ I don’t think it’s nutty nor lying, but whatever.
Rodrigo is jealous about Salley and Austen. I think he needs to break off his engagement, and Austen needs to admit he’s gay and these two should ride off into the sunset.
The ATV-ers join the surfers for margs and a tequila tasting.
Craig and Venita are funny. Craig feels like he’s being bullied around or whatever by Venita, and Venita thinks Craig is the antagonist.
I honestly think producers told her she needs something to bitch about. She chose ‘fighting with Craig.’ And here we are.
Austen shows his gayness again by announcing he’s into a porn scenario featuring a ‘stepson?’ So not only is he into gay porn, he’s into gay porn with young boys? Did I misinterpret that?? He should seek help.
Literally don’t get why Whitney who hates sand, heat and the ocean, is even on this trip.
Craig doing shots is so not good.
Guess who is instant game for body shots? Austen pretends he likes girls and does one off of her and then kisses her.
Craig buys an entire bottle of tequila at the bar and wants to do more shots. He is HAMMERRRRRED. It looks like he almost starts puking at one point.
This excruciating convo between Charley and Salley goes down where Charley looks like she’s about to start hyperventilating. She definitely has ‘ugly cry’ face.
Salley shames her for ‘making out’ with Craig.
She bitches at her for not telling her she kissed Craig. She’s insisting this is a ‘lie.’ I agree sometimes omissions can be lies, however not in this instance.
They leave the bar, and Craig is shitFACED. He’s red and has the incoherent look.
To further prove my point about Austen, he and Rodrigo have a brief ‘make-out’ on the sidewalk. Then he gets in the van, and kisses Salley.
Craig consoles Charley about her fight or whatever you want to call it, with Salley.
They have to wrangle Craig into the van. For some reason he brings a bottle of tequila, beers and cigs into the van. He’s very proud of himself.
I don’t know why Shep keeps screaming “GO! GO! We gotta go!!” As if literally their life is in danger.
You can see how Craig is out there and most likely blacked out. You can tell when Bravolebs are blacked out. They have that empty look in their eyes.
So Salley thinks that this might be a great time to tell him his hair is all fucked up and he looks ‘insane.’
She knew what she was doing, with that smirk on her face.
Craig tells her to shut the fuck up, and of course that does not go over.
He asks to be left alone, and does she keep poking? Yes she does. I’m not going to make excuses for his behavior. I’m just saying, when he said ‘leave me alone’ she could have shut up.
In what world to you try to reason with a drunk person?? What do I always say?
Don’t try to reason with a woman in labor, a toddler, or a drunk person. (I should add narcissist to my list, but I guess it’s kind of redundant since I already included toddlers.)
Salley can’t let it go. Austen, instead of trying to help him, he proceeds to text the other van to gossip. So very Austen.
Craig almost looks like, at one point, he’s going to jump out of the moving van.
