It was the room selections.

can get the best room.

This year she got the best room.

All she had to do was go to jail.

That wasnt the only odd thing.

We all know that on these trips Ramonja always share a room.

However, Im starting to love Sonja and Bethenny as the new frick and frack of this show.

It reminds me of the good old days of Jill Zarin and Bethenny being zany best friends.

The fight between Dorinda and SonjaslashBethenny was totally stupid though.

Sonja said she had deer on her slippers because they were inspired by her family crest.

However, why cant Sonja just put a deer on a shoe?

Why does Dorinda need to continue to antagonize her about this?

Everyone knows that Sonja is a pretty, pretty princess living in a pink soap bubble of the past.

Dorinda just needs to roll her eyes and forget about it, because Sonja isnt going to go changing.

Oh, shed sooner give up her car that she keeps in the Hamptons for no apparent reason.

Enough about them because this episode really belonged to Luann.

There were a few highlights though.

The best for me was when she said, I didnt kick a police officer.

I did slam the door on his face because I was trying to not get arrested.

Oh, well, thank you for that distinction, Your Highness.

We also discovered the real culprit in this whole caper.

So we all know who we can blame for all of this: Julies dumb cat.

Remind me to send that cat a thank-you note and a scratch toy.

Um, yeah, Luann.

That is what happens when you break the law.

You go to jail.

Its not the Mayflower Inn and Spa.

Were you expecting cucumber water and a selection of organic yogurts?

The absolute worst though was when Dorinda said she could see how people get stuck in the prison system.

I felt what it was like to be stuck in that system, Luann says.

Um, no you do not!

Luann got to leave and go straight into a rehab facility with yoga, acupuncture, and meditation.

Most people dont have that.

They cant afford a good lawyer.

They dont have the privilege of being a rich, famous, white lady.

Being stuck in the system is not for people like Luann.

Just imagine how stuck in the system a lower-class black person would be for the same crime.

I am on Luanns side in her fight with Ramona though.

That is just gross.

Sonja tells Luann she was invited to the party, but she just ignored the invitation.

That is what you do to support your girlfriend.

That is a blow that is so low only the ants could feel it.

She tells us that Tom never did anything to her so why should she care.

This is the most Ramona Singer thing that shes ever said.

Of course Ramona feels that way.

What makes it even worse, however, is that Ramona is so damn sanctimonious about everything.

Then she says, Life is about our girlfriends and our friendship and that is what sustains us.

With this, it makes my life more full.

God knows where this will take us, and God knows where the cold will end.

Its funny that theres one woman who doesnt know where the Real Housewives are, like she usually does.

She can always hear the whir of the cameras, feel the blessed sting of their red recording lights.

But shes not at her best right now.

Jill Zarin doesnt know anything anymore.

She knows nothing but the hollow ache of absence.
