Shannon Beador and Lydia McLaughlin's explosive fight marked the opening of the Real Housewives of Orange County, and a chaos of flying plates and middle fingers against Kelly Dodd marked the end of episode three, Breaking Celebrity News can reveal.
A birthday bash for Tamra Judge's granddaughter's was the opening scene, with Beador and McLaughlin bickering, as if no time had passed from the last episode. "I will never be like Vicki Gunvalson," Beador vows in the scene, speaking of her arch enemy.
"I'm f**king done. I don't want to hang out with somebody like that," she says during her tantrum in the limo.
"F**k you guys," she yells after storming away.
Beador rips McLauglin trying to make peace with Gunvalson, saying: "I wasn't screaming at Lydia McLaughlin. I wasn't judging at Lydia McLaughlin. Yet she did that to me. To the point where she assumes, I'm not going to get along with you. Way to make new friends."
But McLaughlin doesn't care: "Shannon, mayor of crazy town, party of one," she says about Beador.
That altercation set up the biggest fight of the season so far, which happened in the last 10 minutes of the show.
In a scene, Peggy Sulahain's struggle to go "through the process of reconstructive surgery," after her double mastectomy was featured, with her devoted husband gushing about his love for her.
"She's the sexiest woman. With or without breasts she's my soul mate," Diko says.
Vicki Gunvalson is the reason all of the women are fighting but she's only in one scene and one flashback in the episode. She's moving into her new office, but discusses the difficulties she has with relationships.
"I've been burned too many times by trusting people: Brooks, Tamra. I've been too giving and too trusting in my past relationships. But that isn't going to happen again."
Megan Edmonds makes one brief appearance as well, with her husband Jim.
"Do I wish my husband was around more? Yes. It's not fun to be a single mom when jimmy travels for work."
As the new parents are cuddling their baby Aspen, Megan makes the most entertaining statement of the show. "Babies can see ghosts. They've just come from the spirit world," she says about her little daughter.
Beador's meeting with her doctor/trainer is devastating. She goes to the gym and finds out her weight is up to 172.2 with 40 percent body fat – she is crushed.
"How are you?" asks the Doctor. "Large," she replies.
In tears, Beador struggles to justify her weight gain: "I just don't understand how I let myself go.
When I look at myself in the mirror I don't like who I am. People say you have too many fillers, no it's f**king called weight gain."
She admits that her now heavy frame is destroying her marriage. "I do not feel sexy. It is affecting my intimacy because I'm embarrassed."
