We're in a meeting where LuAnn and her producer are fine tuning the music video. Then he leaves to bring in Natalie Cole. Who’s had too much plastic surgery but still looks good. LuAnn is all verklempt that Cole has heard her music and has seen the show and feels like she already knows her. She invites Cole to a one-year anniversary party that she's throwing for Jacque and herself. Cole says if she comes she might sing, but LuAnn would have to sing with her. Well, that sends LuAnn to the moon and she jumps up and down with joy. Literally.


Simon and Alex visit Ramona and Mario at their apartment. Talk turns briefly to kids and Ramona says she regrets not having another child. She and Mario debate whether Avery really still wants a sibling. So they ask her when she walks in. Avery says of course she still does, then tells the group Ramona still gets her period! "TMI," says Simon. The doorbell rings and Sonja and boyfriend Brian arrive. During dinner they talk maiden names. Go figure. Alex gets a call from LuAnn who invites her to the anniversary party. LuAnn does say “regardless of what’s happened between us,” so she does realize it’s a bit strange. Alex says LuAnn is usually 80% bore but can be 20% fun so that’s why she accepted.

Alex is on a modeling shoot and her skin and hair look terrible. She wonders if she's cool enough for the mag entitled The Block and so do I. They work wonders though and she looks great when Simon shows up to pick her up. She's not ready so he hangs out while she makes model eyes at the camera. He gets a bit annoying, they have another appointment, and questions how long this thing will take. Alex tells us he needs to cool his jets since she's making money. Which I’m sure they need.

Sonja meets Cindy at the flower district. Cindy tells us they're trying again but she's not sure why. Then she tells Sonja her problem with her is that she keeps changing -- one day friends, the next day it's Sonja the grand dame. She complains that Sonja asked her for breakfast on a weekday so she had to work. Sonja says that she was rude to shush her while she was cooking for her, with her own hands, not the help. Cindy smiles and just lets her rail on. Voices begin rising and they begin to constantly interrupt each other. It seems Cindy thought Sonja could learn a thing or two from her call while Sonja thought Cindy would learn a thing or two from her. They argue over how Sonja treated Cindy's assistant until Cindy gets up, says she’s done with Sonja, and stomps off leaving Sonja still talking.

Ramona’s over at Sonja’s. When Sonja offers some Pinot, Ramona says she can't and shows Sonja her breasts. Sonja says “are you pregnant?” And Ramona says maybe. Ramona tells us that her breasts are huge and they hurt and the last time they felt that way was when she was pregnant with Avery. Heavens! We just learned she was 54!

The anniversary party for LuAnn and Jacques is being held on a boat. I wonder if everyone will be on their best behavior? Alex tells us she will not push LuAnn off the boat and I’m encouraged. Jill tells us that maybe it’s an engagement party cause she doesn’t get the one-year anniversary thing. Kelly pronounces herself Julie Stuben and offers to introduce everyone, then she looks around for Capt. Stuben.

Ramona and Sonja both show up in low-cut, skintight leopard print frocks. Jill complains to LuAnn that Ramona came late and she should run right over and chastise her for holding everyone up. LuAnn tells her to chill, it’s her party and she’s not into the bitchiness tonight.

Ramona, accepting only water, has everyone incredulous but no one asks any questions right away. Ramona tells us she's still waiting for her period to come on. She tells Mario she’s late and he keeps asking her if she's serious. She shows him her swollen breasts but says she hasn't taken the test yet. Ramona tells us she’s also crazier than usual in her head. Oh no. Mario says there’s no way, no way. She tells him to get a drink.

Everyone's eating dinner at the party and Kelly's talking about swinger parties where everyone puts their keys in a bowl. Jill seems to be the only one at the table who has never heard of the practice. Guess she hasn’t seen The Ice Storm. Mario tells Sonja that he's freaking out about Ramona’s news. Keeps saying “it’s not possible.” No one knows that Natalie Cole is there and LuAnn is getting her son Noel to escort her into the party.

Ramona and Sonja go into the bathroom together and Jill gets suspicious. They chat about having a baby and Sonja pulls out "the stick." Jill talks through the door and says two girls going into the bathroom together is so 70’s. She knocks, calls it weird and tries to enlist Alex to get them out. She declines. Then Jill goes and tells everyone at the party that they’re in there together. LuAnn wonders if they’re trying to steal her thunder while Jill calls it third grade and weird, again. Behind the bathroom door, Ramona is hyperventilating and too nervous to pee.

When the two join the other guests Jill hits them hard. Then everyone wants to know what’s going on. Sonja says they don’t know what’s going on, ha ha ha. Jill tells us it’s weird that Ramona is drinking water and she and Sonja were in the bathroom together. When she gets a whiff of the pregnancy rumors she dismisses it all together. Then, hahahahahahaha, Jill shuts the baby talk down and tells us that at Ramona’s age, when your period is late it’s not pregnancy, it’s menopause knocking at your door. Knock, knock, knock. She smiles. And she’s right because this was filmed months ago and there’s no Singer baby around now. Oh, Jill.

LuAnn takes the mike and talks about her and Jacques love, then introduces Natalie Cole. Jill's amazed at the singer’s appearance, but had hoped for an engagement announcement so she could see the size of the ring and then diss it. Of course, Sonja says Natalie Cole is an old friend she hasn’t seen in about three years since Sonja knows just everyone who’s anyone. Natalie starts singing, LuAnn joins in and sounds awful. What a bad idea but it’s a nice moment. Everyone enjoys the performance, with Ramona kindly telling us she thought LuAnn did a great job. LuAnn tells us that Jacques was blown away, and she was sure she was the only one he saw onstage. During the post-performance hubbub, the leopard twins head back to the bathroom to take the test. Ramona’s had about 12 glasses of water so she’s ready now. All we hear is Sonja telling her to “keep it level.”

Jill still lies to us and tells us that she’s working on herself.

Alex says she’s saying what she thinks now and hopes everyone hears her.

Sonja remains optimistic.

Cindy calls the season rough but that life is getting better and better.

Kelly says she was in a huge negativity ball but she’s still proud of who she is. Ugh.

Ramona thinks she’s in the best place possible in life and she has it all.

Jacques wonders how he and LuAnn will be able to top this first anniversary.

We end with the ladies on the hull of the boat, popping champagne, with the Statue of Liberty shining brightly behind them.

Coming up, what looks to be the nastiest reunion special EVAR!
