Heather Dubrow and Emily Simpson meet up at a cute store the day after Gina Kirschenheiter’s dinner party from hell. Before their girls trip, Heather tells her “RHOC” castmate that she was mean to Jennifer Pedranti about wearing a Rolex watch while being broke.
“If you owe a bunch of people money, why are you rolling around with a Rolex? Either hide it or sell it. It tells me that you’re stupid,” Emily says. “Okay, don’t yell at someone because they’re dumb!” Heather replies.
Meanwhile, Heather is upset at Gina for not telling her about the paparazzi scandal that Katie Ginella is telling everyone about. “I feel so f*cking betrayed by her,” she complains. Uh-oh, Heather’s mad. There’s going to be a big dramatic speech coming.
Girls trip #1
Emily, Gina, Heather, and Shannon are going to La Quinta to visit former “RHOC” castmate Elizabeth Vargas, while Tamra, Katie, Jennifer, and Alexis Bellino are trekking it to Big Bear.
During the car ride, Alexis talks non-stop about her boyfriend John Janssen, whom she keeps referring to as Johnny. Gross. She’s so in love and has never felt anything like this before. Barf. They’re probably all wishing they were going to La Quinta instead.
No one shoves Alexis out of the truck and they all make it to Big Bear safely for some fun snow tubing where there’s a lot of high-pitched screaming.
Just when you thought the grossness was behind you, Alexis calls John and they flirt over the phone. Tamra chimes in and tells John that she’s his fan.
“I know what a pain in the ass Shannon is. I don’t know how he hung on for so long,” she says in a confessional. The betrayal is real.
Girls trip #2
At Elizabeth’s house, the girls are all in their matching pink shirts that say “Girls Trip” and trying to cook hot dogs on a mini grill. Shannon confides to Emily that Gina thinks she’s gotten a little aggro lately. “I mean, I lashed out at Jenn and it was inappropriate,” Emily admits.
“Gina says before the dinner that you were so far up Tamra’s ass that you were becoming maybe more aggressive as you hang out with Tamra, or meaner,” Shannon tells her. Emily is so surprised that her BFF Gina is talking behind her back that her lashes almost fall off her face.
“I feel very betrayed by Gina. First of all, I’ve always been mean and aggressive. Hello, welcome to Earth. But secondly, you’ve known me for six years. If we’re supposed to be best friends, why are you telling everyone else?” Emily tells the cameras.
The two ladies rejoin the rest of the group and everyone can sense Emily’s wrath. They ask her what’s wrong but she doesn’t answer. Yet.
Everyone’s enjoying their hot dogs but Emily is so mad that she can’t even eat. And this is the woman who brought a turkey sandwich into the sauna.
She finally tells Gina why she’s upset. “You said that I’m mean, that I’ve changed, and that you don’t even recognize who I am.”
“I didn’t say that,” Gina answers. Shannon concurs and tells Emily that Gina said that she changed. This is Heather’s chance to make the fight about her and she then rips into Gina about the Katie paparazzi situation.
“I feel betrayed by you and I’m having a really hard time,” Heather says. Cue the waterworks. She has successfully managed to derail Emily’s convo with Gina.
Alexis Bellino has it out for Shannon Beador
Tamra has this great idea of Jennifer making content for OnlyFans to make money and has her stick her feet in an apple pie. As if this isn’t gross enough, Jennifer sticks her feet in Tamra’s mouth and she licks it. “I kind of want to vomit a little bit,” Katie says. That’s how we all feel.
They start talking about John again and Shannon comes up, which incites Alexis. Jennifer asks, “Alexis, when do you stop the fight? You are on such a hell path.”
“If she wasn’t going around making lies about him, I wouldn’t be on a hell path,” Alexis answers.
“Do I need to pull out the videos? Johnny’s ready to talk,” she tells them. Alexis claims that she has videos of Shannon on the night of her DUI and it looks bad. Jennifer thinks that it’s wrong to expose Shannon because it will damage her family. Alexis needs to slow her role.
