Scheana Shay began her "Vanderpump Rules" stint as "the other woman" due to her affair with Eddie Cibrian (via Bravo TV), but her legacy extends much further. Shay was the vessel that connected "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" to its spin-off, yet her past reputation made it difficult to make friends. From the pilot episode on, Shay was bullied by cast mates Schroeder, Maloney, and Doute. Even though their on-again, off-again friendships allowed Shay to be invited on cast trips, she could never fully penetrate the wall of the self-proclaimed three "Witches of WeHo" (via Us Magazine.)
Shay partook in a number of arguments with the women, resulting in iconic quotes like Schroeder's "I'm not really sure what I've done to you, but I'll take a Pinot Grigio." Unfortunately, Shay could never one-up them in a fight. That is, until Season 5, when the women traded barbs at a pool party (via YouTube.) The three women ganged up on her for befriending newcomer Lala Kent, but Shay had logic on her side. "You guys all have the same opinion," Shay stated to her bullies, calling out their hive mind mentality. And when Schroeder dared call Shay selfish, she finally let five seasons' worth of pent-up aggression go, stating, "Then why are you friends with me?" before exiting and leaving the women (and viewers) in her dust. The power-move showed off Shay's maturity by refusing to engage. Shout out to growth!
