Mob Wives: Take This Book and Shove It

Carla and her kids are on their way to pick up Joe Sr from the joint. Carla thinks Joe should tell the kids where he's really been. She's not sure how the kids are going to take it.

At Spice Market Renee is meeting up with Tiffany, a friend and former boss of hers. Renee used to be a wardrobe assistant. The first people she worked with was 50 Cent and G-Unit. Renee is seeking employment because things are financially tight in her house. She gave up her job when Junior came home from prison but now that he's going back she wants to go back to work. Tiffany expresses to Renee that she's a drama queen and its a concern of hers because although Renee's a great worker and all, when she becomes a drama queen it takes away things.  And Renee agrees with her. She states that Tiffany is the only one that can say that and get away with it.

Drita is on the phone with Carla asking about picking up Joe. Nothing much here which is surprising because Karen isn't in the picture.  BAHAHAHAHA

Karen is visiting Renee at Renee's house. Karen asks about Junior and Renee is telling her how Junior said that he's going to work on them and get people out of his life that are bad for them and then he says he has to go away for two days but that it wasn't Renee's place to ask. He comes back and in the middle of the night his phone is ringing and it's texts from two women. Karen says that he's never going to change because it's a pattern between the two of them. She said Renee is the one that needs to change.

Carla is driving back after dropping Joe off at the halfway house. The kids were fine with knowing that Joe was in jail but Joe Jr is upset that his father isn't coming home. Carla calls Joe on the phone so he can talk to Joe Jr. After the phone call Lil man is OK.

Karen and Drita are having drinks and Karen is confused about whether she should go back to Arizona or stay in Staten Island. Drita says she should stay.

Renee is at her therapist office. I'm going to fast forward through this because I seriously can't stand the therapist. I just want to sock her one right in the face.

Carla and Drita are at the gym talking about Joe being in the car and how things were weird for him. Carla tells Drita that she told Joe that it was time for him to tell the kids where he's really been. Their conversation is boring as well. Just talking about Lee when he came home the first time and Carla talking about Joe coming home.

Renee and her son are having dinner at one Renee's favourite childhood restaurant IL Cortile. She said with Junior going away she wants to have a talk with AJ. This place serves Coca Cola in the bottle. Man I love coke in a bottle. There's something about the taste. It tastes different than in the can. Renee wanted AJ to follow in her father's footsteps but after everything that has happened she wants him to go in the other direction. She wants him to go to college. He said he never had that mindset.

Drita is meeting Karen for dinner. Karen just finished the first chapter of her book and she wants Drita to read it. The name of the book is "Shadow of the Bull". Drita is kind of shocked. She thought her and Karen had buried the hatchet but having the book in front of her she says it's all coming back to her. They show a flashback of when Karen was in Dritas house putting Lee down and Drita telling her that that's not cool but in Drita fashion, of course. Drita is excited about reading it just the same. Karen knows that Drita will be honest about it and that's what Karen wants.

Renee is going to work and she's going to work on the set of Ghostface Killah who is part of the Woo Tang Clan. He calls her on the phone while she's driving to work. I am not even going to attempt to tell you all what was said. Ghostface has a language all his own (I'm going to keep my opinion to myself on how I think he sounds).

Now I'm confused. They showed Renee leaving her house - oh wait. I got it. The first time they showed her leaving the house she was going to get the clothes for the video shoot. Now this time they show her leaving her house she's actually on her way to the video shoot. It take  me a bit but once I get boy do I get it.

OK. Renee is on her way to the video shoot when she gets a call from her friend Nikole. Renee tells her about her job and all. Renee begins talking about Junior a bit and then the phone call ends. Renee pulls up to the place where they are shooting the video and Ghostface Killah shows up. On the phone he didn't sound like much but in person he seems alright. But whatever. Renee says she enjoys what she does because it puts her in a good place and gets her mind off of what Junior is putting her through.

At Dritas house Aleeya is about to do her math homework and this the time that Lee calls to help his daughter for Drita and math don't get along just like Nikki and math don't get along. Lee finally calls and Drita leaves her daughter and Lee alone. Aleeya begins asking Lee if he's mad at the person that ratted him out and he said he's more mad at himself for not seeing it.  He feels he should have seen it.  I hear you there buddy.  Anyhoo.  Aleeya asks Lee when is he coming home and he says soon a sn she says that soon is not good enough.

Renee begins packing Junior's things. She contributes her change towards Juniors to the girls (Drita, Karen and Carla, her counsellor and her new job). After packing his stuff she leaves his suitcase by the front door and then calls him and leaves a voice message and tells him she's packed his stuff and to call AJ before he comes to the house pick up his things and then she hangs up.

Karen calls Drita And leaves a voice mail. Karen states that she hasn't heard from Drita since giving her the chapter to read and Drita won't return any of her phone calls. She feels like Drita is avoiding her.

Drita is meeting Carla for lunch at Mike's Place.

Drita tells Carla that she hasn't read the chapter yet. Carla is surprised that Karen gave Drita the chapter to read. Carla says to Drita that perhaps Karen gave her the chapter so Drita wouldn't find out down the road what was said. Drita feels that Karen should be doing the whole book thing with Renee with Renee being her girl and all. Drita has a trust issue with Karen because of what she did at Dritas house a few weeks ago. Drita is pissed about the book and Lee being in it and she's getting fired up.

NEXT WEEK ON THE FINALE

Drita is telling Carla that she found out something about Lee

Karen tells Renee she gave Drita the book to read and since then she hasn't heard from her. She feels like Drita is ignoring her now. Renee feels Karen and Drita's friendship is bullshit. Karen says if she doesn't hear from her she's going to kick Drita's window in and take her chapter back.

Drita is telling someone (that I don't recognize) that she doesn't want to have anything to do with Karen's book and that she doesn't trust Karen and it stems from Karen saying doesn't care what Drita thinks about Lee being in the book.

All of the women are together on top of a roof (my invitation must have gotten lost in the mail. I'll have to speak to Drita about this one) for what looks like a get together and Karen says to Drita that she was angry because she was hurt and Drita says that they weren't friends when she hooked up with Lee then she says, "You f**ked my boyfriend when you were with Lee." Then Karen says something and all hell breaks loose.  Let's watch:






Now for a little comedy:

Check this lady out.  She does a great impression of Drita:
