'Real Housewives of New York' Recap: Sonja Morgan Puts Aviva Drescher in Her Place

by Julie Ryan Evans on September 17, 2012 at 11:38 PM

Aviva DrescherAfter the disaster of a trip to St. Barths, The Real Housewives of New York were back in the Big Apple, but still rehashing the same old fight that happened on the island. Or at least Aviva Drescher was -- over and over recanting how poorly she was received, how "disgusting" Ramona Singer and Sonja Morgan behaved, and how huge of an effort it was for her to get there.

With evidently no self-awareness in her self-centered body, she kept bringing it up at every random lunch or dinner they constructed. Heather Thomson (who has suddenly become quite likeable after she got off to an irritating start) even tried to get her to shut up and see that she needed to take some responsibility for the situation, but that wasn't about to happen.

Instead Aviva the Diva just continued to recant the infractions against her and threw out some new names for Ramona including, "a cheesy, cheesy low-class woman." Add that to white trash, which Aviva and all of her fancy education can't even define properly.

She did attempt to get Sonja back on her good side though, and invited her to dinner so they could "talk as two moms in a civilized manner." I'm sure she expected to recant her same story yet again, give Sonja a chance to apologize and kiss her ass, and then figure out how she could pit her against Ramona. But Sonja was having none of it. Instead she let her have it.

"You have said some things you cannot take back," she told her. "You defamed my character ... I can’t have a friend like that."

Then Aviva blathered on some more about being duped and betrayed by Ramona and condescendingly told Sonja she was better than the way she acted in St. Barths. But Sonja -- thankfully -- wasn't giving her any love.

"Whatever you tell me about your feelings now, I don’t care," she said. "I’m over you."

Then she hit her with, "I don’t know who you think you are really. You put out an air that you think you’re better than others."

Bingo! Then she zoomed in with a final zinger, "You're a liability."

Stunned, Aviva tried to turn it all on Sonja and talk about her downward spiral, but Sonja rose and left with her dignity (and hat) intact, while Aviva was left licking her wounded ego.

Sonja's all about fun and partying, but when she needs to get serious she can. And she did. Good for her -- that almost made up for that atrocious headband she wore in the first scene. Aviva deserved that and more, and based on previews for next week, she just may get the more from Ramona.

Were you glad to see Sonja Morgan tell off Aviva Drescher?

    My thoughts on Aviva have totally changed - she is not the person I thought she was.

    Aviva was wrong but Sonja and Ramona were rude as well!!!  The white trash comment was wrong and nasty.  Sonja stayed drunk the whole time she was in St. going crazyBart's. Ramona can hold her booze better than Sonja. Yeah Aviva maybe a BUZZ KILL as she's being told. You have six women staying in one house everybody's not going to get along. AND YES Ramona and Sonja are a joke!!!

    WOW, Sonja put Aviva in her place. "BA-BAM" Sonja showed class and intelegnce and yet in a wink of an eye become this desperate worn out old woman you just cringe when you see her. But Aviva has now become that person you don't want to see at a party. Aviva has become a one trick pony, Once you've seen the trick it's no longer needed, So Aviva can go back to the stall through some feed on the floor and leave.

    Avivia is so negative, why would anyone want to put her on tv? Please let it be her only season.

    Aviva needs to get over herself! Roll out the red carpet for her? Who the heck does she think she is? Under her deceptive caring appearance, she is nothing but a egotistical and self-righteous creature. She should shut her trap about her "atrocious" trip to St B already, and she should limit her teachings to her children alone. If you're reading this Aviva, je pense que tu es laide comme un pou.

    Aviva is an old dry bone. That skeletor horse face needs to stfu already. Jeez! Reed adjust her Meds please! Did anyone read her blog on Bravo tonight? Another one of her pity parties. Lol. Aviva knows she's an A hole but can't help herself. How cruel of her to speak to Sonja that way. Sonjas alone with financial issues. Aviva's a spoiled evil entitled witch that should count her blessings. How would she like to lose everything & have others look down their noses & judge her! That phobic angry bitch needs to stop being the Moral Police. I can't wait for her skeletons to fly out! Btw,aviva should preach to her Dirty Old Man Father instead of lovely Sonja & Ramona. Hey Aviva, nobody gives a shit about your opinions, LOSER! Lol
