Where has it been?

Have they been leaving their packages in a safe space?

But speaking of Andrea, he makes a guest appearance too.

I sort of love this role for him.

This is also close to my lived experience of having a summer house.

That really threw me for a loop.

DidKandi Burruss put her up to this?

Did she see this onRHOAand decide its her favorite sex toy?

Maybe its just that Sam talks a lot.

Like a lot a lot.

It goes, um, about as well as can be expected.

I want to say this in the sweetest way possible, Mya says.

You speak too much.

Im not trying to tell you to be quiet; Im not coming for you.

You have the greatest heart.

across a crowded party.

But Sam says no one has ever asked for more of her because she already gives so much.

As a talker (and a loud talker at that), I feel for Sam.

I especially feel for her because she kicked boxing coach Josh to the curb.

Who came by and picked him up like he was a coffee table that was full of bed bugs?

Oh,just Madonna.

You probably havent heard of her anyway.

They decide that theyre going to change Carls title and attempt to make him happy.

It all seems nice enough.

But this is not a Carl and Lindsay problem; this is a Kyle and Danielle problem.

That is the sticking point with Kyle and Amanda.

Kyle keeps saying Lindsay is in his ear and is manipulating them.

You could say Amanda is in Kyles ear and vice versa.

This all comes to a head when the cast decides to have a slumber party in the living room.

Paige really missed the wrong week not to hang with the rest of the bedsore sisters.

Thats like every single Friday and Saturday night since Paige joined the cast.

Now theyre just tacking party onto the end of it and pretending theyre doing their job.

(Sorry, its anX-Men thing.)

Then Danielle gets the question that ends it all: Who do you trust the least?

Danielles response is In a curveball, I cant-see whats coming way, I trust Amanda the least.

Kyle asks Danielle to unpack it, which is something we really need.

What is a curveball kind of way?

Kyle is naturally upset about this because he doesnt want to see his wife crying.

He says hes going to go downstairs and tear into them.

Its about the right time because Lindsay is talking about how much Amanda hates her.

She says, Everything I do, according to Amanda, is my fault.

Thats how actions and repercussions work.

Should Amanda think that everything Lindsay does issomeone elsesfault?

I have no idea what shes talking about right here.

Because hes drunk and overreacting, Kyle handles this entirely wrong.

He says Lindsay is a master manipulator.

My wife deserves better.

Okay, now here is the real question.

Is it ever too much?

If Carl allows Lindsay to manipulate him and doesnt mind it, is it even a problem?

And if Lindsay is misbehaving, should Carl also be held responsible for it?

Is all of this anger at Lindsay misdirected?

Does Carl not have agency of his own?
