"Vanderpump Rules" Season 10 Continues To Be The Gift That Keeps On Giving
As Season 10 of Vanderpump Rules marches on, each episode builds in anticipation leading up to the reunion when all of the cast members will address the Scandoval cheating drama.
Until then, let's continue breaking down Season 10 Episode 8, and overanalyze the group's antics in light of...everything we know now!
1.Scheana and Brock discuss the seating arrangements for their upcoming wedding in Mexico and comment on how "Raquel’s got a little roster stacking up" because of the men she's being linked to at Scheana's wedding.
"So Raquel's waking down the aisle with Joey, Peter's sitting right next to James," Brock says. "Raquel’s got a little roster stacking up."
2.Katie joins the Toms at Scwhartz & Sandy’s for another food tasting. (This was Schwartz's peace offering to Katie after they got into a fight at Sandoval and Ariana's pool party.) The Toms are trying to lock in a food menu before they head to Mexico so they can get closer to opening their bar, and the deadline is tight!
3.Ariana, Scheana, and Lala invite Ally to lunch and discuss how they want to spend more time with her but also want to be delicate about Raquel’s feelings since she’s still getting over her breakup from James. (Well, everyone except Lala is delicate about it.)
(Meanwhile, in real life, Raquel may or may not have already been hooking up with Sandoval at the time of filming.)
4.At lunch, they rehash Lala’s fight with Raquel at Sandoval and Ariana’s house. “This bitch calls me a mistress bimbo as she’s in a pink sarong with six inch heels at a fucking pool party in Valley Village,” Lala says, talking about Raquel.
5.Ariana defends Raquel and says, “She looked hot,” and Lala responds, “She looked like a baby prostitute.”
6.Lala and Brock have a heart-to-heart about how far their relationship has come since last season when Lala fought with Brock about the fact that he hasn’t seen his kids from a prior relationship in four years. Lala apologizes for how she treated Brock and they both gush over how much they love and appreciate each other.

7.Lisa Vanderpump hosts a surprise bridal shower for Scheana and one of the first shots we see is Sandoval standing with Raquel in the garden.
8.James is annoyed that Schwartz and Raquel are flirting at the shower. At one point when the two are talking, Schwartz explains why he has a tattoo of "LVP" on his butt. "My ass looks great with LVP on it, he says." Raquel responds, "I'm sure it does" and Schwartz says, "I'll show you in Mexico."
Again, meanwhile(!), in real life Raquel may or may not have already been hooking up with Sandoval when they were filming this!James is also seemingly drunk at the bridal shower after being sober for more than two years, and he says that his new girlfriend Ally "is the one" and he wants to "put some babies in her one day."
9.The Toms host everyone at Schwartz & Sandy's for an after-party, where Schwartz and Raquel continue to flirt.
10.The gang finally arrives in Mexico for Scheana and Brock's wedding. As soon as they get there, Katie and Ariana FaceTime with Lisa and a realtor and find out that they secured the space for their new sandwich shop, Something About Her.
Joy!
11.When Sandoval and Ariana enter their hotel room, he brings attention to the fact that there are "two beds!"
"If you're good we can push 'em together," Ariana jokes. "Wow, okay," Sandoval responds. Ariana continues, "Yeah, I'll think about it."
12."I'm so excited to be in Mexico. Nothing else to get in the way of my quality time with Tom," Ariana says. "He is my prisoner."
13.The couple share a kiss on one of the two beds in their room.
Awkward.
14.Kristina Kelly shows up uninvited to dinner on the first night of Scheana's wedding weekend. While Scheana doesn't address the issue to Kristina's face, in her interview she talks about how Kristina and former cast member, Stassi Schroeder, made fun of her the first time she got married when she wore a crop top wedding dress.
"Years ago at my first wedding, not only did Stassi and Kristina Kelly say that my dress was the ugliest effing thing they had ever seen, they said something even more hurtful," Scheana explains in her interview. Then the show cuts to a scene from Vanderpump Rules Season 3 when Stassi says about Scheana's dress, "It's like a skanky girl's quinceañera.""I don't talk about it a lot but I am half Mexican and for them to take such a special event in Hispanic culture and to make it sound trashy, skanky, low class actually hurt me," Scheana says.
15.The group dinner isn't without drama — in a moment that wasn't filmed on camera, James nearly got into a physical altercation with one of Brock's friends. James apparently body-checked Brock's friend because the friend drunkenly said "hello" and hugged him.
16.Ariana addresses the incident with James at dinner and yells at him. "I wish you could hear your tone of voice when you speak to me because you’ve been very fucking rude to me," Ariana says.
When James tries to defend himself to Ariana, saying Brock's friend was also physically aggressive with him, Ariana yells, "I don’t like him doing it and I don’t like you doing it!"
17.James asks her not to yell and she replies, “I will raise my voice because when I talk at a normal volume you don’t fucking listen to me and I’ve had enough. We’re done!”
And if all of that isn't dramatic enough, we still have the rest of Scheana and Brock's wedding weekend to get through! Stay tuned!
