I agree with Lexie, something is really odd. I remember the first time I saw her spending large amounts of money was when she purchased furniture. If memory serves me right she bought 2 sofas each costing 11,000 plus other furniture items and she paid cash, not a check actual cash. No one in their right mind carries that kind of cash. I kept thinking her husband is paid cash "under the table." They don't want any records of what them actually make or spend. It screamed tax evasion to me. JMHO

I remember that too Bombay. I think we were all debating if she was Mafia or if she just wanted to look like Mafia, because who carries around that much cash? And I'm sure she said something like "Oh I always pay in cash" while peeling off from a massive wad of hundreds. One of the thoughts I had is if the show caused him trouble with people ie IRS actually auditing legitimate cash flow. Cause if we were all wondering, likely they were too. But no matter what is going on, I'd think her image is going to take a hit here. How can you say you are millions in debt, and show up on TV spending like she does??? Quite an unusual situation unfolding huh?! And thanks Lexie...I was pretty sure those numbers looked wrong for RH income. I didn't recall hearing specifics but I couldn't fathom it would be that low!

I guess Gia is going to have to get a job to help out.

Maybe I just read the situation differently than other people did, but I took the Manzo boy's statement, "Boy are you in for a surprise" to mean, "Wow, you (Danielle and entourage) are way overdressed; will you ever be surprised to see people inside are dressed in camouflage and jeans." I don't think in any way that he was implying that they didn't have seating (inadequate, awkwardly-placed, or otherwise) for Danielle, nor did I think he was making any veiled threats.

He stated right then that was what he meant, Sia. Danielle's friend was quite dressed up and the people who came to the benefit for the little girl as well as the charity sponsoring it weren't as dressed up. Danielle went looking for trouble and since there really wasn't any, she manufactured it by doing some spin.

That whole situation didn't need to turn into the debacle that it did: the event was a fundraiser to help a sick little girl. I feel like Danielle tried really hard to make it all about her. I just don't like her and wish she were not part of the RHoNYC cast at all.

Oh Danielle totally made it all about her. The funny thing is that the people hosting the fundraiser eventually wanted her to leave. She provided nothing by her presence, including the lack of funds that she (presumably) was hoping to donate.

The most tactless thing she did, in my view, was badmouthing the Manzos to everyone in earshot--most specifically, telling the parents of the sick little girl that she was made to feel unwelcome at the Brownstone. That was completely out of line, and it was right that Danielle left. I don't think she was thrown out, though. I think she chose to leave--dramatically, just to make as much of a scene as possible.

It seems to me that Danielle is getting "power" or justification from Bravo producers - it makes good tv, it upsets people Danielle doesnt like.. I'm glad they brought up the slur - that Danielle went ballistic that Teresa's dh used the word, but at the Brownstone when the shoe was on her friends foot - it wasnt in his mouth..

I agree Danielle was soooo sad at that event,she made something that was suppose to be about a little girl with cancer all about herself.And then her "friend" uses the F* word about Chris and she said it was ok because Chris isn't gay.Then she gets in this facebook/text war with an 18 year old teenager,come on Danielle really.I think Dina was trying to let her know she was done with her in a classy way,but like usual Danielle has to make everything about her and couldn't hear what Dina was trying to say to her. I love all the Real Housewives show's but not sure how much more of NJ I can watch with Danielle on it.It just makes me annoyed whenever she's on the screen.

If it's true, then Ms Staub is really a fame hog. If that tape was shot last September, presumably after she'd been trying to resurrect her reputation after being outed for her past... well, 'nuff said. The woman is simply a trashy wannabe, if that's true.

Did I hear correctly at the end of the show, that one of the housewives will be leaving next week? Based on Dina's blog, it sounds like it might be her, if it all isn't a misdirection.

I haven't gotten to the end yet. I was so fed up with Danielle that I decided to go check email instead!

I thought someone posted that Dina was leaving - something about her dh wouldnt be on the show, and then the mess with her ex and her dd not being able to be on the show, then with the Danielle drama - she was done... which is understandable, Dina isnt bringing drama or a storyline, so she is fading into a normality that is refreshing!

Last night's show made me like and respect Dina, she doesn't need to talk behind anyone's back and is the only one of the ladies who really means what she says when it comes to Danielle. All of the women claim they don't want Danielle in their lives, but they keep doing the show. If you want Danielle out of your lives then quit the show and let the producers make a choice. It's either all of you or Danielle, done. I'm glad they are showing Teresa in a less than favorable manner. She is so a "stage mom" and the way she goes on about Gia is beyond annoying. I think my daughter is extraordinary too, but she goes too far with her bragging about Gia IMO.

Before I watched the end of the show, I was gonna say that I wish the Manzos would just quit talking about Danielle. Just cut her out of their lives completely. They seem to talk about her all the time (but admittedly, I don't know how much of that is scripted). Then at the family dinner they all pledged no more. I hope like heck they keep to that pledge. I really have to hand it to Dina. She wanted to explain to Danielle why she wanted nothing more to do with her, she wanted closure. Of course, Danielle had to make it all about her. I'd be sorry to see Dina go. Her "normalcy" is what I like. I'd much rather see that other "D" woman leave. And it looks like there's a sex tape controversy next week. I dunno how Danielle can think she's all sweetness and light when she does crap like this. She is an angry person and she needs to reconsider her life. Taking Danny along (albeit in the parking lot) when she met Dina? Really? To borrow her own words: who DOES that? I'm pretty much over this version of the real housewives. There's not much real about them. If Danielle continues to be the primary topic of conversation for the Manzos, and continues to stir up trouble, this may be the last episode I watch. This is definitely not enjoyable. (Just like the last season of OC and the last season of NYC; although I am looking forward to the 2-part NYC reunion show! )

After watching last night's show I really think Kim G wants to be one of the regular housewives instead of a friend! I also believe that the convo between her and Danielle prior to the party was edited, there had to be much more said. What I like about Dina is that she seems to have a calm demeanor-very easy to talk to - not in your face.

I went to go read this week's blogs at Bravo, and the only one that is up is Danielle's blog. How strange that none of the other blogs are up by now.
