Bravo's 'Vanderpump Rules' returned on Tuesday night and has already gotten the viewers talking on the internet. It was all about surprises — some good, others not so much. Beau Clark and Stassi Schroeder's proposal was easily the high point of the episode but what followed later was cringeworthy. 

The couple, after their quiet engagement at the cemetery, drove to Lisa Vanderpump's house where Stassi was welcomed by the hostess and her family who had arrived at the mansion to catch her off guard. She was in tears and so was Lisa. It was an emotional moment for all and before everyone could get carried away in exchanging pleasantries and catching up on the proposal goss, the table was set for a lavish spread. 

While others got talking, Scheana Shay turned to Stassi's 15-year-old brother Nikolai Schroeder to have a light conversation. She asked if he had a girlfriend and would he have one when he went to high school? The teenager was visibly confused and perhaps uncomfortable. He dodged the question by saying "probably".

In her confessional video, however, Scheana said the youngest she has ever dated was a 21-year-old and would never go below that. It was good to know that she is not into dating minors but fans are totally weirded out by Scheana's attempt to flirt with the child. 

She also hinted at how tall he has grown since the last time they met. "Yeah, we're eye level," she said, to which Nikolai let out an awkward, incomplete smile.

Meanwhile, fans have a lot to say about their conversation. 

"Stassi’s younger brother being weirded out by Scheana flirting with him is by far her most embarrassing moment now  #PumpRules #Vanderpumprules," a fan shared, while another wrote: "This is how Scheana flirts, I mean looks, at Stassis little brother, a boy not out of puberty. Yeah, I'm cringing too #VanderPumpRules #PumpRules."

"You can date a 15yr old, Scheana... unless you want to go to jail," a fan pointed out. "Okay Scheana this feels predatory #vanderpumprules," another expressed. "Is Scheana about to hook up with Stassi’s lil bro?  #vanderpumprules #pumprules #BravoTV," another fan asked.

"Scheana talking to Stassi’s brother was creep level 100.... she is so thirsty #vanderpump #vanderpumprules," a viewer tweeted.
