Arguably the series' most shocking and iconic moments stem from the season three episode "Sun, Sand, and Psychosis," known more commonly as "Scary Island." Previoushousewife Kelly Killoren Bensimon begins to go off the deep end, spiraling into a nervous breakdown while spewing off the most ridiculous quotes imaginable. In honor of "Scary Island," let's go over Kelly's ten best quotes throughout their infamous St. John's trip.
The theory that Kelly could have been under the influence of drugs seems to be more and more plausible with each ridiculous quote mentioned throughout this list. One drug questioned was meth, since Sonja randomly smelled cat pee on their cat-free yacht, and meth has an ammonia-like smell.
This quote,mentioning the white noise, makes her sound like she's almost admitting to being delusional and not of a sound mind. Did Kelly Bensimon have a mental breakdown, or did she experience a drug psychosis?
Surprisingly, this quote comes at the beginning of Kelly's downward spiral, the night before the infamous dinner where Bethenny cooks steaks. While Ramona is flirting it up on another yacht, Sonja, Kelly, and Bethenny have an... interesting discussion that turns heated."Nobody cares about you Bethenny! You're vindictive and malicious and cunning and deceitful and it's creepy! That's why I get creeped out by you!"
After that attack, Kelly just keeps insulting Bethenny: "I'm sorry, I'm not a hoe-bag like Bethenny, I don't sleep with everyone who walks around." Bethenny and Sonja depart from the crazy to join the other women, only to be followed by Kelly!
Once Bethenny, Alex, and Ramona leave the table of crazy for a sanity break, Sonja tries to reason with Kelly, wondering if she knows how insane she's coming off. Out of nowhere (once more), Kelly jabbers: "and you want me to sit here with her? Cause she calls you a freaking hooker?"

Kelly continues to butcher the English language, stringing sentences together that make no sense. Bethenny jokingly called Sonja a hooker the night prior, which Sonja didn't think twice about, but Kelly was clearly taking obsessive notes in her booklet of "How To Bring Down Bethenny."
After Alex admits that Kelly goes a little crazy and can be on the attack, Kelly says she "turns into these people" and then goes on a tirade about Ramona's True Renewal party, saying Alex showed up to deliver a message in crazy black and white eye makeup.
She was in kabuki! Well, you were, cause you were, like, white face and black eyes."Facetiously, Bethenny mentions that Alex must've gone in costume, and Kelly continues: "I was like 'holy sugar!' she was like, channeling, like-- I don't know. Like a vampire."
The night prior, Kelly throws out: Youre not a chef, youre a cook. It's creepy, once again calling Bethenny creepy!"I didn't go to culinary school?" Bethenny immediately retorts, and rightfully so! "I don't know what you did, and I don't really care," Kelly blatantly contradicts herself. "I went to culinary school, you moron!" Bethenny slams in her face, completely shutting down the Cook vs. Chef argument. Of course, Kelly continues, throwing in: "really, with who? Alain Ducasse? Who? Nobody cares!" Kelly missed the memo about going up against Bethenny, and how slim your chances of coming out on top will be.

Bethenny continues to rip into Kelly, eviscerating her by saying: "you speak and you don't know what you're saying-- you're the most unintelligent human being I've ever had the pleasure to be around."
During a moment where Ramona actually shows some vulnerability, she brings up the incident where she insulted Bethenny on the Brooklyn Bridge and decides to apologize. "Are you going to sit on her lap?" Kelly provokes Ramona, whose intimate moment was completely ruined. "Are you guys having a moment? Are you going to make out with the tongue?"Ramona and Bethenny give Kelly this look of confusion, wondering what her MO could be.
"You need a freaking time out!" Ramona retorts, and Kelly responds with an astounding: "I don't want a time out, I want you to zip it!" Once Ramona and Bethenny walk away, Bethenny hilariously throws in: "finally everyone's turned the same channel on. Just say to me-- I've always been right about everything I've said."
This quote is quite possibly the most disturbing of the bunch. Alex McCord tries to level with Kelly, explaining why she was uncomfortable modeling for her earlier that day at the beach. "You scare me," Alex admits. Kelly makes light of it at first, and then throws in: "Alex is having nightmares about me while I'm having nightmares about Bethenny killing me."

Puzzled beyond belief, Alex asks, "when has Bethenny tried to kill you?" Then Kelly responds with,"I was having nightmares. I have been, I threw up. But I was-- I threw up the night before I came, thinking that Bethenny was gonna freakin' kill me, cause she's tried to kill me so many times before."
Now this one crossed a line. Coming off the heels of her estranged father's passing (all while being pregnant, sober, and cooking the ladies dinner), Bethenny had every right to be celebrating in St. John with her friends, regardless of her relationship with her father or how soon he just died.
Several times Kelly calls Bethenny or what she does "creepy," which is pretty creepy in of itself!
This quote from Scary Island is undoubtedly the most well-known gif of Kelly Bensimon out there. After Bethenny does an impression of, well, maybe Al Sharpton, by saying, "you can't handle the truth," Kelly immediately blurts out, "Oh my god, Al Sharpton!" Bethenny and company look to Kelly in bewilderment, though this is probably one of her more cohesive lines of the night!
Just when you think this couldn't get any more strange, things take a left turn once again with unexpected results. As Bethenny and Kelly go at it, Kelly interrupts her thought with: "what about when you attacked Gweneth, my friend Gweneth?"Bethenny confusingly asks, "who's Gweneth?" Without skipping a beat, Kelly jabs back: "Paltrow? And what about Rachel?"
At this point, the ladies realize things are more serious than they originally anticipated, and they could have a serious problem on their hands.
