OG Housewife Lauri has a plan to get back on the show, and it involves activating Gretchen to spread the rumor that Vicki has threesomes. Vicki! A woman who won’t even say “vagina.” Actually, scratch that. If you really, really think on it for a minute, Victoria Gunvalson is absolutely capable of receiving from more than one person.

This is Canadian cutie Lydia’s trip, and she had no idea it would get so raunchy. Helpfully, Alexis kicked everything off by gifting her a Swarovski bible to brandish as a totem against evil. If there is one thing we all know about God, it’s that He respects bling.

In the end, Lauri fizzled, mumbling that maybe the three people she saw in Vicki’s bed might have been watching a movie, but that didn’t stop Vicki from screeching, “I have never been with multiple partners in my LIFE!”

In 2007, every single person living in Orange County, California was “in real estate” (unless, of course, they were in energy drinks) and so it’s to be expected that before the gals even reached San Diego, Jeana Keough and Vicki Gunvalson are barking at each other across the limo about a security deposit.
