Business Is Business

I like Phaedra and Apollo, but sometimes Phaedra can be a bit much. She  thinks she can pull the  wool over any ones eyes as long as she starts it off with a compliment.  That's an old familiar trick used by hustlers. Make the mark think you're impressed with something they have. Giving you the upper hand on those who fall for the hustle. If you go for a  line you know isn't true. That says something about you. If you can sell everybody a glass house. You don't have to worry about anyone throwing stones. Phaedra is a glass house salesman surrounded by people looking for a home. If you tell anyone about her houses being no good. She'll sue you for defamation of character. By her being a lawyer she can afford to pursue her own cases.

It might not make good television, but I  think it would. Phaedra would make an excellent Funeral Director. But Apollo isn't up to the task. If he were a light bulb he would be a 40 watt. Every time he opens his mouth on camera, Phaedra holds her breath. I have only seen her out of character on the show twice  When she partially paraded around in a two piece bikini, and when she slobbed Apollo down at the dinner table in front of  the rest of the cast. Since she has been hanging out with Kandi. Having sex toy shows with guest appearances by Redicklous. I knew she wasn't the Southern Belle she pretended she was. She didn't get married and have two babies by a thug on a whim. He is the man because she loves him. But make no mistake about it. Phaedra wears pants as well.

I think Kenya Moore has exposed a dent in the Nida/Parks union. You haven't  heard much from Apollo before now. He was pretty much a mannequin in past seasons. He was making all his noise at the strip clubs in Atlanta. Not the one they went to on the show, but "Diamonds" and "Magic City". Obviously the donkey is not enough. Peter Thomas is slick hating though. He snitched on Apollo on a sly. Kenya makes all the marriied men want to talk. Peter and Gregg both would be flirting but Kenya isn't feeling them. Kenya and Phaedra are at an impasse right now. I think Phaedra's insecurity is causing her to make a bad business decision. If you're going to consult Todd and Kandi now . Why didn't she use them in the beginning? She was looking for the hook-up. She doesn't want to hire Kenya, but she wants to use her connections and ideas. She tried to go around Kenya and use Cynthia's modeling agency without discussing terms.Yet she wants an itemized budget down to the penny from Kenya. But last season she  held up filing important papers for Sheree Whitfield in her divorce until she got her money. What's the difference here? Business is business.
