Last week we left off with Monica Chacon getting kicked out of the Gorgas' Christmas party, but this week we got the best Christmas present of all: watching Kim G. get kicked to the curb as well.
But oh man, she did not go without a fight. Or a bodyguard.
After Monica leaves, Kim won't stop gossiping about Teresa, to the point where the Manzos have had enough. When Lauren tells her to "stop stirring the pot because it's getting pathetic," Kim turns on her to pounce, but is met with calm and collected mama bear Caroline, who schools her elder on the concept of respect.
"You come to hurt people," Caroline says, eyes blazing. "You came with the intention to hurt tonight."
Kim doesn't take being lectured to too well, prompting Caroline's son Chris, who is best friends with Kim's son John, to step in and escort her outside. But not so fast - Kim brought her own bodyguard (who clearly isn't very good at his job) who starts cursing at Chris but gives up pretty easily.
The whole thing escalates pretty fast, and while Chris tries to ease the situation by talking to Kim out front, Kim continues to refuse to leave until the Manzos literally force her out the door.
Melissa admits it is a little strange that the Manzos are throwing people out of her house, but is really just grateful that the situation didn't turn out like her son's christening.
Towards the end of the episode, Giudice starts making mean comments about the Gorgas, especially Melissa, who he calls a “witch.”
“Joe Giudice was absolutely despicable,” Harrison said. “How can he say such awful things about Melissa in front of everyone? His own wife wants to patch things up and he pulls that? Yuck!”
Pepe found herself confused by the incident.
“Where did that even come from?” she said. “I wonder if the editors of the show edited the sequence so that it seemed like Joe was talking about Melissa but he was actually talking about someone else? Because honestly the only reasons I could think of why Joe Giudice would randomly start racking on Melissa like that would be if he were jealous of her or attracted to her or something equally ridiculous.”
Harrison has recently declared herself “Team Gorga,” saying “I think the Gorgas are the only ones trying to make peace. Teresa is even trashing them in her interviews.”
The episode ends on a cliffhanger, with Joe Gorga telling Teresa that he is going to leave for the Wakile party. However, on "Watch What Happens Live" with Andy Cohen, which aired immediately after, Caroline Manzo seemed to imply that the Gorgas did attend both Christmas Eve parties.
“While I know Kathy had invited the Gorgas to Christmas, I believe they should have stayed at Teresa’s house,” Santoro said. “The kids were getting along well and Joe Gorga seemed to be enjoying the lost time with his parents and sister. In my opinion, this is when Kathy should have stepped up and told Melissa when she called to stay at Teresa’s if everything was going well.”
“However,” Santoro added, “I’ll hold my comments on that until next week when it all (hopefully) plays out.
