That means I finally get to say it publicly: I like Eboni.

I feel this is also true of Eboni.

Now were always talking about race because shes on.

Ramona says, I dont feel comfortable talking about sex.

Is this dick small.

Is this dick big.

Where did it all go?

I dont know, Ramona.

I totally get why Leah is upset with Ramona and her hypocrisy.

Its sort of like the conversations she has with Heather about talking about her on the podcast.

Its not really about the sex, its about the control.

Ramona and Leah just like to push each others buttons.

Thats not going to get Ramona to change.

Also, Leah may be younger than Ramona, but she is a mother herself.

Equating Leah to Avery Ramonas Platonic ideal of a well-raised daughter is not the thing.

All of this is preamble to the fight that Eboni then wades into the middle of.

Luann says, Its not about class, its about education.

Luann misinterprets what Eboni says and thinks Eboni means that she is not educated and she defends herself.

She also thinks Eboni was saying she was smarter than Luann.

That is not the case.

Yes, that is not education, that is class.

That is exactly Ebonis point.

Im not screaming, Ebobi responds.

Your white fragility is killing me right now.

Luann then tells her not to make it about race.

Well, Eboni cant help making it about race.

Eboni raises this point and says that Leah behaved like that and no one said anything to her.

Heather Thompson is sitting at the end of the table barely intervening because she wants back on the show.

She doesnt seem angry to me, Sonja says about the argument.

She seems like shes able to use her words.

That is exactly it.

Eboni, as a trained and practiced lawyer, can argue circles around these women.

As reality television practitioners, theyre used to their arguments being adjudicated by force and violence.

Whoever can be the strongest and the loudest wins.

But not with Eboni.

She will show you the flaws in your logic.

She will remember exactly what you said and use it to hang you.

Get it now, Luann?

Luann tells her to leave and adds that what Eboni said was offensive to them.

Eboni just stated facts and defended herself with them; she was just going off of your own arguments.

You will not police my feelings, Eboni says, strong to the core.

You tried to shame a woman who is sexually free and you used education to do it.

Luann gets in one last retort.

You should know the word.

She just called the one Black woman on the cast trash?

After wearing blackface on television?

In front of the Catholic Jesus?

On the East End of Long Island?

Under a constantly falling Chinese satellite?

Jill handed her one of Aaron Burrs antique guns and told Luann to point it to her own head.

You loaded it yourself, Jill said with a chuckle that sounded like a scream.
