Mob Wives: Do Renee & Ang Remain Friends?

Back in the old days of Season 1
when friends were friends

After watching Episode 6, and the whole hands on the Bible ceremony, it left me wondering just how long Karen's peace brokering would last. After all, some pretty ugly things were said by Renee and Ang, things that are not easily forgotten or forgiven. I think that scene was filmed back around September. We still have no idea what is going to happen in the next six episodes, but there is some good indication right now that the "peace" has lasted and Renee and Ang have gotten past their differences. During the show, both Ang and Renee tweeted public apologies. Their apologies seem sincere to me. Here are the tweets for those of you who do not follow along on Twitter:




Karen and Renee have every reason to be concerned as long as outsider, Gnat, keeps stirring the pot. What I don't get is Drita has said time and time again she doesn't like the things she is hearing about Gnat, and yet she is always defending her. Ang keeps saying she is going to talk to Gnat about this issue and that issue, but has never gotten as upset with her as she has with Renee. Drita and Ang still continue to hang out with Gnatalie. I'm confused. I hope common sense prevails in the second half of this season. P.S. I want to know when I can say "Bye, Felicia" to the Gnat?

Mob Wives: Recap “Philly vs. Philly,” Ep 506

It ain't over just yet!

And the fight continues . . . All hell breaks loose at Drita‘s magazine party. Renee and Ang are at each other’s throats, or they would be if Karen Natalie D. weren‘t there to keep them apart. Ang yells, “I want to cut your throat, b*tch, to Renee. She adds “Renee is a rat, she crossed the line when she said Gnat's DNA was on the dollar bill.” Now how the hell is Renee a “rat?” I think Ang just throws that insult at Renee because she knows it’s the worst thing she can call her and press her buttons. Karen says she never saw this side of Ang, "this b*tch is turning into Godzilla!". Karen keeps trying to break up the fight. Ang yells to Renee that she is an embarrassment. Drita’s party is a mess. Ang tells her that what Renee said is unforgivable. Drita finally gets Ang to get in her car after several attempts. Karen is upset that an outsider like Gnat is going to ruin a 25 year friendship. Karen tells Renee Ang it’s done, get in the car, it’s over. Renee says her friendship with Ang is over. There is no going back, she is on Gnat’s side, so she better stay there.

The alliances are clear!

London and Gnat funeral home scene. Can I just say how totally ridiculous this scene is? People die 24/7 and they do not take breaks when Mob Wives is filming. You can’t live in New York City and run a funeral home in Philly, which is at least 90 minutes away without traffic. I think this whole thing is a farce. It just goes to show how dispensable Gnat really is at the funeral home. She wants everyone to believe she is running things, but in reality she isn’t even there to do anything. I’m sure her grandfather had to hire another cosmetician to take over where Gnat left off.

Karen stops by Renee’s house. Renee says she is really pissed off. Ang lunged at her after she said she married a rat. Renee still worries that what Junior did will impact AJ’s life. Ang's calling Renee a “rat” was really the last straw. Renee was going to dragged her out of the club. Renee says she gets Junior is a rat, he did it to her father! She gets it. But she isn’t accountable for what he did to Ang’s cousin or anyone else. Karen doesn’t understand how Ang doesn’t get Gnat is rat for all the things she has done.. There is nothing appealing or special about Gnat. I don’t understand it either. Karen feels Ang was way out of line. She wants to talk to Ang and hear what she has to say. Renee says this is done, Ang called her a rat. She picked Gnat’s side, so stay there, because she can never come back from that.

Drita goes to see Ang at the Drunken Monkey. Ang is still pissed off at Renee. Ang feels bad that Renee’s rat move ruined Drita’s night. Renee crossed a line that can’t be repaired. Ang keeps hearing her voice in her head. Ang says Karen is not getting involved in this because it’s not her business. Ang wants to break Renee’s jaw so they could wire it shut for 12 weeks and she can keep it shut.

Gnat is packing up her apartment to take everything to NY. London gets there too late to help her. She tells him about Drita’s photo shoot and the model, Natalie D, who tells her she is a cop calling rat. Gnat says she has been calling around trying to get dirt on Natalie D. She got some and plans on getting more dirt on her. She hears she is the biggest whore there is and a douche bag. I wonder is Gnat ever looked in the mirror? Sounds like some projection to me.

Karen is listening to every word Natalie D says

Karen is looking forward to talking to Natalie D after what she heard her say about Gnat. Karen wants to meet Natalie D and learn what else she has to say. They have a conversation. Natalie D says she hung out with Drita the whole day and everything was fine. She says Drita asked her for her opinion on Gnat and she told her the truth. She is known in South Philly as a “rat scumbag.” She doesn't like her, she doesn't like what she is about. She's a "f*ckin' cop caller." Karen wants to know what her motive was to say she is a cop caller. Natalie says she has no motive she is just telling the truth.

She's a rat scumbag!

Natalie D tells her Gnat has been calling her boyfriend, Ronnie, to get dirt on her. He shut her down and she didn't stop there. She called 15 other people she knows for the same reason. Karen feels Natalie D is real and doesn't pull any punches, and she respects that. Karen says Ang and Drita have her back. Natalie D says she isn’t afraid of anyone. There won’t be any helping Gnat, even God coming off the cross can’t help her. Natalie D sure means business! I was hoping the wars between the South Philly girls was in this episode, but since it’s not, we have a lot more to look forward to!

Drita talks to Lee. They never get to see each other since they are so busy. She tells him about Ang’s cousin and how Junior ratted on him. She says, Junior shot the guy during a robbery and he is walking around free (not true he got 11 years, Ang’s cousin got 38 years).

Renee’s house. AJ is nursing his foot. Renee tells him how scared she was from the call she got after the accident. He wants his grilled cheese sandwich. Renee goes to bring it to him. He starts laughing. I guess Renee doesn’t make many grill cheese sandwiches because AJ’s sandwich looked grilled, but it had hard cheese in it.

Karen, Ang and Drita meet at the park. Karen wants to tell them about her meeting with Natalie D. Karen says she got good vibes from her. Natalie says everyone from South Philly hates Gnat. She tells them how Gnat is calling her boyfriend and all her friends to get dirt on her. Drita says if they want to kill each other, let them. “May the best Natalie win.” adds Karen. Karen wants Ang to try and make amends with Renee. Karen says her father used to make people meet on a boat and talk things out because no one could run away. Drita thinks it’s a good idea. Ang agrees to meet Renee on a boat. I guess Karen knew what she was doing but I wonder if anyone was going overboard!

Ang’s house. She bought the worst house in the best location, so she could renovate it the way she wants. Drita pops in and is very impressed with the house. Ang is drained from all the work. She tells Drita how many thousands everything costs. Neil is painting, but he is good for nothing. He is dripping paint. Ang wants her children and grandchildren to live with her.

Gnat and London go clubbing at the Whisperclub. They have been so busy with the funeral home (yeah, right) and moving to NY. Gnat just wants to have fun. She is sick of all the Natalie D stories. London isn’t as much fun as Gnat would like. He says he just doesn’t want to go overboard. I should have just left this scene out altogether, it was pointless except to show that all Gnat wants to do is party.

Karen wants the girls to make up and move on.

Karen and Renee get to the boat. Renee doesn’t really want to be there. Renee is mad that Ang doesn’t have her back and called her a rat after being friends for 25 years. Drita says she doesn’t know if Renee can own up to what she did. What exactly did Renee do? I don’t get it. In any case Drita is Team Ang, big surprise there. All the girls are on the boat to talk. Lines have been drawn, Karen has Renee’s back and Drita has Ang’s. Ang’s hand is bandaged because she fell and got 12 stitches, and that could be a good thing as far as her trying to fight Renee. Karen feels they can hash out all their differences on the ocean. Renee thinks the whole rat thing is unforgivable. Ang says Renee started it. Karen says no, no, no. Renee was offended at Karen’s house when Ang sided with Gnat, and then it escalated at the restaurant when she started calling Junior a rat and then Renee a rat. Drita starts to say that Junior ratted out Ang’s cousin, but Renee yells he ratted out my father! Renee is sick of being the one everyone points their finger at. Renee says she has no control over Junior. She never did. He is a rat. As for Gnat, Renee says Gnat outted her publicly for doing drugs in Vegas. Renee is just saying if she did drugs then so did Gnat because she was in the bathroom with her.  That's what she meant by both of their DNA’s are on the dollar bill. Karen says they established that Renee shouldn't have said that to Ang at Karen's house. Then Ang admits she shouldn't have said that the next night. Ang agrees to take Renee's word of how she meant it. Karen wants complete resolution. Karen wants Ang and Renee to get over it completely, not just say they are over it. Ang says she could be okay with everything. Ang takes out a big Bible. Renee and Ang both swear on the Bible that they are over it.

The Bible brings closure!

Now Karen wants to know what they are going to do about Gnat, the social media bully? Karen starts to tell them all the things Gnat tweeted about her on Twitter, which she ignored. But, then she started calling her a “dead beat mother” because she left her daughter in Arizona. Karen is very upset about that.

"NOW, it's a problem!"

Karen says, "Now it's a problem!" She has gone too far, she has no regard for people's families, she is rotten to the core! Ang says it was very uncalled for that Gnat called Karen a dead beat mom. Ang is going to talk to Gnat about it, she doesn’t like it, no one brings up family. Renee wants to know what kind of person are they allowing in their circle to cause trouble? Drita says "if she said it she would knock her teeth out in front of everybody". Is Drita all talk again? Listen Drita, you just heard it from Karen, you don’t have to hear it from Gnat. Besides that, it’s on Twitter and I believe we have a print screen in our blog, so there is NO question about what Gnat said about Karen! Karen is disgusted with anyone who sticks up for Gnat, she wants to be in a room with Gnat. She will break her f*ckin' face the second she sees her. Will someone please grant Karen’s wish and book a room??? And one more thing . . .

"If she said it I'll knock her f*ckin' teeth out right
in front of everybody."

Well Drita, here it is! There are no "if's and's or but's" about it! Will someone please pass the following picture on to Drita so she can do some dental work on Gnat?
