Dina and her husband (can't remember his name) came to the meeting, as did Esti. They told her she could either have the house in her uncle's name or take a bigger mortgage, live in the basement and rent it out.
Naturally she rejected both offers. Ari said if you walk out the offers go with you. Eli was trying to 'keep the peace' and after Dina suprise suprise walks out he goes after her.

Seriously Eli when will you learn? I hope next week Esti tells him as he's going if you leave I want a divorce, in front of Ari and Mimi.

He's also a victim
Victims are so so blind
It's hard for people who never experienced abuse to understand

Yes 100 times yes!

Anyone who doesn't know a Dina in real life thinks Eli is just dumb and clueless.

He's gone beyond victim. Why doesn't he consult daas torah - my sister is doing so and so, my wife feels...what's the right thing to do....

Why does he think only he knows the right thing to do here- ignore the needs and feelings gs of his wife and children to make his sister happy.....

I don't think that even if he did, he would be able to follow what daas Torah advised. He's too enmeshed in the unhealthy dynamic.

Everyone minus Dina visit the mother. Mimi offers to buy pizza and food for everyone and the kids. The cliffhanger is the mother says Dina is trying to convince her to sell her house and move to a 55+ community...

What happens this week?

Ari is sticking to his guns and is not allowing Eli to run after Dina to placate her. Which is what he wants to do 'to avoid upsetting his mother'. Yeah right.

They decide to visit Mrs. Beckman to show her that they're all getting along, and to present their side of the story as anything she knows is Dina's side.

Mrs. Beckman looks terrible & says that Dina is encouraging her to sell her house and move to a 55plus community.

I don't get why Dina thinks she'll gain from this tho.
And she must see a way to gain otherwise she would not be suggesting it.

I think it'll end well, in that Dina won't get her demands filled.
Kudos to Ari. Think he had his head screwd on all along but couldn't get past Mimi.
Eli is torn he just wants to please everyone but would've ended up pleasing noone. He's got no backbone.
Seems Ari's a straight shooter.

But let's wait...for Dina to kick herself for starting up with Ari.

It's gonna be her downfall.

Dina is not gonna win.

Her game is up.

Can't wait to see what's gonna happen.

She's gone too far.

And the mother's house is mortgaged...

I doubt Dina or her mother know this. I guess this would be a good time to tell them!

I guess she didn't audit her father's financials well enough...

They can't tell the mother, she's already sick from the stress. Wonder if Dina will use that to her advantage Twisted Evil

It was mentioned earlier that their father mortgaged his house behind his wife's back.
