My question is why did they take a party bus to the retreat? There was only 5 of them!

Probably for the cameras.

I'm rewatching the episode now and I HATE when Teresa constantly touches her tongue to the corner of her mouth. She does it when she lies (so basically every time she speaks) and when she's uncomfortable.

These women are a bunch of skanks. Caroline does act the best but now she's acting like a Psych. M.D. and believe me she is not.

I don't either.

I'm I the only person who feels bad for Teresa??

I remember when this show was funny with a little bit of crazy just to keep us talking. Now this show is so heavy, I've actually dreamt about me trying to get Joey and Teresa talking. It's too much. The Gorga addition has really trashed this show. This fighting is redicious. It's one thing to argue but fist fighting is beyond adulthood. When Joe and Teresa are now alone they are getting alone. IMO, Melissa doesn't want them to make up. I love watching Joe kiss his sister.

No you are not. Trust me. The tides are turning ON Melissa.

Teresa is such a screw up. But she and her brother are forever entwined. I hope they can work this out, where everyone gives some and comes together.

I agree. These 2 women are so jealous of one another and put Joe Gorga right in the middle of it all. Shame on them. Joe Guidice (?) is the scummy one (IMO) and HE truly does not want to work this out. I also think Melissa has issues with the family--I think she knows she should try and that it could be worked out but deep down, she does not want that. Teresa is no better. She wants her brother all to herself and does not like his relationship with his wife. The whole thing is so screwed up.

And every week, I tune in and watch the crap.

 

[goofinoff]

It was a very touching moment between brother and sister last night. I think these two need to be alone for a while before they can bring their spouses in it. It's clear they love each other and want a relationship.

I don't feel bad for her at all. I think her actions and her mouth has put her in this situation. She is always shifting the blame on everyone else. Even the Dr. said last night that she has to take some accountability at some point. When she was talking about Jacqueline being the reason for joe not speaking to her the Dr. totally called her out and said "but you WERE involved." She talks about sticking with her and not listening to what others say but yet she's always right there when Kim D is running her mouth about Melissa. If it were reversed I'm sure Teresa would be pissed that Melissa didn't stand up for her, her sister in law. But yet she says nothing. Years of rotten behavior has brought her to a very dark lonely place.

Add me to Team Teresa.

And I too am becoming emotionally vested in this show. It's gotten so sad. I ugly cried when Joey and Teresa hugged.

 

[CathrynRose]

And the black hairspray?

Hahahaha! Hahahaha!

I think Melissa and Teresa are guilty of doing the same things to one another. Teresa does need to own up to her part in it but so does Melissa. Melissa hangs out with people that don't like Teresa (Jaq) but everyone calls Teresa out for Kim D. Joe and Melissa both say all kinds of mean things about Teresa's husband but they flip out if Teresa says anything about Melissa.
It seemed very clear that Melissa doesn't want Joe and Tre to make up. I do think she's in Joe's ear, stoking the fire between Joe and Teresa. She doesn't want them to make up which is why she wouldn't let Joe and Teresa talk without her.

I'm not really a fan of either one of them... But I do disagree about Melissa, only because we have something similar going on with my husband's family (in a normal way of course lol). I think they all have fault, but I think Teresa has been the biggest problem of them all. Nothing is going to get resolved if she doesn't buck up and accept some responsibility.

IMO, the person who has a feuding family will always say 'one more try,' 'okay let's see if this works,' 'this is the last one,' and they'll just never stop even to the detriment of their own personal family. At some point someone has to say enough is enough and the first one to say it isn't the family member, it's the one that gets dragged through the mud along with them. Joe and Teresa need to be the ones to work it out, but in the meantime Melissa is going through the emotions, the drama, the pitfalls, but she's supposed to step back and let them deal with it. It's a terrible place to be stuck in. I think she genuinely wants them to makeup but she's tired of trying different things, putting themselves through the stress, and getting nowhere. When it feels like an endless circle it's logical to say stop.

The fist fight happened during their first few hours. You can bet your life that if my husband got into a fist fight with his brother in law and I watched his sister running away instead of helping that I'd say the same thing when she came to talk alone. Joe said he didn't want to talk, so why would she leave? I wouldn't. If Teresa had asked to speak with Joe alone pre-fist fight I have no doubt both spouses would have been fine with it. And frankly, if Joe had looked at Melissa and said 'no, it's okay. Give us a minute' I think she would have. But he gave no indication of wanting to speak to her, let alone be alone with her, and she probably handled it more gracefully then I would have. I think her initial reaction was the same way I would have - they just had a peaceful year without Teresa, she is going on a retreat to try to mend things again when she doesn't want to because she doesn't think it will work, and the first night the husbands are fist fighting.... I'd be more than done too.

I laughed so hard at Joes admission to using black hairspray. No shame. Love him.

Teresa ran to get help. There were probably only camera people there and they would keep filming instead of helping. She genuinely seemed upset. I wouldn't have gotten in the middle of those two fighting either.
Of course after the fight there was Melissa turning it on Teresa.
Maybe Joe didn't want to talk but he's an adult and Melissa does need to stay out of it. It wasn't just Teresa. Rosie was there too.

It seems to me like he's wanted to make up with Teresa but then Melissa will come and put something in his ear to make him mad at Teresa again. Its the same with Teresa and her husband. If she hadn't gone to him and told him her brother called her names, he would've stayed out of it. I think Melissa does the same thing. Everyone calls Teresa out on it but not Melissa.

The black hairspray was funny. It reminded me of the old infomercial for the spray can toupee stuff.

I totally agree with you.

To the people that think Teresa ran away. If Teresa stayed and didn't get help, what was she going to do? Was she going to scratch Joe Gorga's face like Melissa was doing to Joe Guidice?

That entire family has issues, and no one wants to claim that they had some sort of responsibility in the mess.
