The Real Horsewives

I wish I laughed more this episode. I was looking forward to a good laugh, but found myself in mediocrity.

In the diner, Max and Han have a cute little convo about the difference between homeless and hipsters. They hear from Oleg (who is wearing two women's fur coats and snaps a photo of his junk on said hipsters camera that they left) that it is going to snow. Caroline goes into a memory about how beautiful snow is. Max tells her that's rich people snow and she has not seen it broke style yet.

They go home to realize that Chestnut cannot stay with them in the snow. Even the tarp that Caroline built is not going to cut it. She gives Chestnut her winter coat and cuts up her cashmere leggings for him, but still not enough. They decide to try a few options. There is a stable in Brooklyn that keeps horses so that they can be in ads. They bring Chestnut over and the guy says that he is out of shape. Immediately, Max and Caroline go on the defensive and say "look at your gut" and you are out of shape, etc. He tells them its a no go, and sends them on their way.

Back over in Manhattan at Peach's house, she tells Max she got asked to interview for real housewives of Tribecca. She tells her that her former bestie has a blind cat and is trying to one up her. So Max suggest that she take in her deranged horse. She tells her its Caroline Channing's horse and Peach's face lights up. She asks how they know each other and she says that Caroline is her AA sponsor.

They go over to meet Peach, Caroline is wearing a trash bag as cold weather armor and her boots. She realizes that TV crews are there, so she takes off the bag, fluffs up her necklace and takes her Brian Atwood pumps out of her purse. She comes prepared! She goes in to meet Peach and Peach says "thank you for coming" and she says "thank you for having me" and Peach talks about how happy she is to have met Caroline and get her horse because of her drunk servant, Max. Servant really? Is she that daft?

Chestnut is over at the stable and they have to say goodbye for now. Max has a tender moment with the horse as she says goodbye and tells her that she is fuzzy. She also has their weird obsession with kittens singing and ringing doorbells.

No extra money in the fund, minus Chestnut and a few minor laughs. Heartwarming, yes? Funny, not so much.
