I dont know why this is part one of a two-part season finale.
The episode starts with Shep leaving his trainer and calling his girlfriend, Taylor.
He tells her that his trainer gave him some Cialis.
He said it helps with blood flow, he told told Taylor.
Girl, if your trainer is giving you Cialis it is not to help with blood flow.
He is trying to see you get a boner in your gym shorts.
I cant believe Shep fell for that old trick.
Shep says he has a way to get over that.
Do these things even exist in the wild?
Is this a myth that has been perpetuated on us by the Bravo Industrial Complex?
Is this like Priv, but installed in a mini-mall somewhere near you?
Across town, Madison goes over to Austens house.
Madison is there to talk about their altercationthe week beforeat the private island party.
Madison says, at least in her confessional, that she acted like an asshole and felt bad.
But their conversation is just nuts.
Madison says shes over Austen, but also tells him that she doesnt want him dating other girls.
If youre asking for my permission to date another girl, you dont have it, she says.
Um, then how do you expect him to get over you?
I hate to say it, but Craig is right.
Craig is right about all of it.
Im really hurt, man, she says, and shes upset that none of her friends (i.e.
castmates) defended her and said that Kathryn is not racist.
Well, thats the problem.
What Kathryn didisracist and shes refusing to take the blame or accountability for it.
She says the only person she needs to apologize to is the radio host and shes done that.
Well, Im sorry, Kathryn.
Maybe if she tried to understand that she would be in a better place.
She said, I dont believe in cancel culture, I dont believe theres any room for growth there.
I found that really insightful.
But, like Leva says, Kathryn isnt being held accountable.
That is more emotional labor that she doesnt need.
Madison and Venita seem a bit more skeptical of Kathryn and her motives.
They bring upan articlethat came out claiming that Kathryn orchestrated dating a black guy to rehabilitate her image.
This came from very well-known journalistic bastion All About the Tea, the winner of five Pullzittzer Prizes.
That, right there, is science people.
