The title of the Vanderpump Rules episode “Tom and Tommer” pays homage to the film Dumb and Dumber, a comedy about two clueless friends who try to navigate the world without guile. On Vanderpump Rules, restaurateur Lisa Vanderpump entrusts bartenders Tom Sandoval and Tom Schwartz to get their restaurant TomTom in West Hollywood, Los Angeles ready for its opening event.
Two days prior to the opening, the air conditioning system breaks down and “it’s sweltering hot,” Vanderpump tells the AC repairman on the phone. “The clock is ticking.” Meanwhile, when Tom Sandoval points out to Tom Schwartz that one of the toilets is missing a seat, Schwartz says, “That’s okay.” Sandoval disagrees.

When Sandoval calls for the ice delivery company and asks for 700 lbs. of ice, Sandoval yells over to Lisa, “What’s the address here?” That’s right, Sandoval doesn’t know the address of the restaurant he’s running. Vanderpump Rules airs Mondays at 9 pm on Bravo.
