If there’s one thing  The Real Housewives of Orange County love, it’s wine. Vicki and Tamra launched Wines by Wives last season and now it’s time to focus on building their business. Except they’re not really friends anymore, so this should make for interesting office politics. Join us now as we break it all down with our  THG +/-  system! At Casa Dubrow, Terry asks the most disgusting question a husband can ask a wife. “Do you want to cut my toenails?”  Minus 20 .  These two are still on the outs following their dinner the night before. She tries to explain why she was hurt the night before and he just goes right on clipping his toenails.  Minus 10 .  Heather’s issue is that she needs support from Terry instead of jokes. Terry cracks another joke. Get it together, you two! The wine is in and Tamra checks to make sure she’s the center wife on the label. She and Eddie head out to Malibu for a little wine tasting with the girls.  Tamra’s jealous of Eddie’s bike and says if there’s anyone he would ever have an affair with, it would be his bike. Vicki climbs into the limo with the Dubrows and the McLaughlins. She’s feeling like a fifth wheel as the only person on the trip without a significant other.   Lydia’s kids made a get well card for Slade’s son. Super sweet.  Plus 12. Tamra’s ready to do some business. Yes, they’re sampling wine, but they also need to choose new wines for their mail-order business.  During the first sampling, the wine goes to Vicki’s head and she insults the winery owner by saying she thought he and his daughter were actually a couple.  Minus 13. Heather asks how old the daughter is and she responds “24.” Then Vicki adds injury to insult by telling the girl she looks older than 24.  Minus 7 . Jim and Alexis have a new Sky Zone opening in San Diego so she’s not on the Malibu trip. And she wasn’t invited in the first place. They’re going to the opening of their trampoline park for kids without their own kids.  Back in Malibu, the group arrives at their hotel and Vicki turns on the tears and whines about the fact that she’s single. Or just there by herself, since she and Brooks are sort of dating but then not?  At dinner, there’s more alcohol. Doug asks which wine they’re drinking at dinner and asks who chose it. Tamra raises her hand and Vicki gives her the Evil Eye. Talk turns to the missing dramatic element of the night: Alexis. Lydia says that Alexis misses Gretchen and Gretchen says she doesn’t believe that.  To change the subject, Tamra asks Heather if she’ll get to make out with anyone on her upcoming guest role on  Hot In Cleveland . Atta girl, Tamra! Way to shift the focus!  Plus 8 .  Terry starts cracking jokes and Heather’s demeanor changes instantly.  Vicki has a new business venture that she hasn’t told Tamra about, one to which she’s focusing most of her attention. Instead of helping sell Wines by Wives, she’s peddling Vicki’s Vodka. It’s day two in Malibu and there are more wines to taste. Eddie and Slade are missing breakfast for cycling. Heather asks if Tamra and Eddie need to have a conversation about the cycling and Tamra tells her that’s an argument she’ll never win. Thus begins a conversation about marriage and compromise and pretty soon Terry spills the beans that after their dinner, he dropped the “D” word in conversation with Heather.  Vicki actually gives sage advice when she says that throwing around the word “divorce” builds a wall between a married couple.  Plus 10 . Heather just wants what she gives. That’s not too much to ask. Eddie and Slade arrive from their ride just in time to draw the attention away from Terry and Heather.  Plus 5 . Instead of tasting and choosing wine, Vicki tries on coats. Then she needs to leave to go to dinner with friends in L.A. even though she’s supposed to be on a business trip. The best thing that could possibly happen for Vicki and Tamra at this point is for the two of them to stop being business partners.  Tamra calls Vicki a bitch and Vicki calls Tamra a miserable person.  Heather and Terry take a moment to talk about brunch and he apologizes. He knows he screwed up. They agree to hit the pause button on the conversation and pick it up again after she films.  Briana brings Troy by Vicki’s office because that’s the only way she feels like she can see her mom. Vicki gives her side of the story about Malibu and definitely angles the conversation so she’s in a good light.  Minus 8 . Tamra and Eddie go to dinner to discuss the fitness studio. Tamra has trouble balancing two businesses. She also thinks she has an anger issue given her latest outburst with Vicki. Tamra doesn’t know how to talk about emotion and has a really truthful moment with herself and Eddie about how she reacts to situations.  Plus 30.  EPISODE TOTAL: +7    SEASON TOTAL: -38
