And I’m thankful for both of the Housewives that brought it to us.

This is the butterfly effect of rich women: the Bolognese Effect, if you will.

Because that’s what Erika does: purposefully says a lot to make it say nothing.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills

‘The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’.Bravo

As opposed to Sutton, who is always accidentally sayingeverythingwhile trying to play it cool.

And that’s fine!

That’s a nice gift, and it’s fun that Sutton is featured in it.

I say this not because I know Sutton personally, but because this is atypeof person.

We all know one.

What is going on?!

Finally, it’s time to descend upon the Rinna abode for what might just be the scene-of-the-season.

When the other women start producing gift bags from under their chairs, Sutton looks stricken.

Which is, of course, the main source of Sutton’s rage.

Because for Crystal, itissettled.

She felt Sutton violated her privacy, and she’s fine with moving past that.

She’s also fine with Sutton not liking her word choice because it’s how she really felt.

Maybe this isn’t a “solve it in the yard” kind of breakdown.

Maybe you’re gonna wanna be okay with your friends being upset sometimes.

Because then everyone else starts showing up in the bar area for birthday shots, and thingsreallygo downhill.

“Sutton, we’re done with this!”

Garcelle cries, nay,pleads.

By this time, Kathy has arrived at the bar and inquires, “Whois Hunky Dory?”

because she earnestly believes it’s Mr. Dory who has Sutton so upset.

“Me again?”

and she can’tsit across the table from her.

But it wouldn’t really matter one way or another.

Which is so clearly untrue, it’s a little heartbreaking.

Sutton needsso muchfrom Crystal, and Crystal won’t give her a lick of it.

To show that she cares as much about this as Sutton does.

But she doesn’t.

To quote another powerful Housewives force, Crystalsaid what she said, and she’s standing by it.

But she’s also taking it a step further.

Because Crystal’s complete nonchalance also has the power to decimate Sutton, and Crystal knows it.

Crystal simply deadpans: “Um, not yours.”

Three words one knife.

Yourugly leather pants?!"

And in Beverly Hills, them absolutely should be fightin' words.

But for Crystal, they’re just further proof that she’s won.

Don/Crystal: “I don’t think about you at all.”
