RHOP S10E12 Part Two: Don’t Let the Sun Go Down On Me
Released: December 22, 2025
Hosts: Ben Mandelker ("Tiffany") & Ronnie Karam ("Brandy")

Episode Overview

This episode continues the hilarious and sharp-witted recap of The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 10, Episode 12. Ben and Ronnie dissect family tensions, home renovations, Bravo show tropes, and the unforgettable on-screen showdown between Wendy and her mother, Susan. With their usual mix of love, mockery, and side-splitting observations, the hosts deliver a breakdown that is as much about family dynamics as it is about reality TV absurdities.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Wendy & Eddie’s Home Renovation: The Never-Ending Story

[01:21 – 03:22]

• The hosts admire the improvements to Wendy and Eddie's house, especially the new kitchen island, though they notice imperfections in workmanship (“two shelves that were like totally crooked”—Tiffany, 02:00).
• They poke fun at how Bravo now ties up “boring domestic storylines” before the big trip episodes, only for new renovation plots to emerge.
• Quote:

  “It’s going to look great for the next family.”
  — Brandy, 01:57

2. Wendy’s Relationship with Her Father

[03:22 – 07:36]

• Wendy tries to reconnect with her estranged father, only to be met with indifference and cliché responses (“there’s no use crying over spilled milk”).
• The hosts tear into the dad for minimizing the family’s pain and Wendy’s attempt to build a storyline around it.
• Quote:

  “It’s always the ones who spilled the milk that said that. It’s like, well, it’s already spilled. Yeah, but you spilled it!”
  — Brandy, 04:56

• Both hosts sympathize with Wendy’s desire for a relationship but are firmly Team Susan (her mom), calling out the father’s absenteeism and emotional laziness.

3. Giselle’s Charity Scene

[07:36 – 08:53]

• Giselle boasts about $1.2 million raised at a Brain Tumor Society event. The hosts mock the implication that Giselle herself was responsible, joking that donations were likely to stop Ashley from singing.
• Memorable Moment:
  Brandy proposes GNA (Giselle and Ashley) should be paid to stop singing at charity events.

4. The Keiarna & Greg Condo Shuffle

[08:53 – 16:37]

• Keiarna is moving back in with Greg, but the hosts struggle to keep up with the shifting living situation: "Nothing makes sense. Nothing is interesting enough to make sense..." (Tiffany, 09:47).
• The hosts ridicule how the show's sets are indistinguishable and how Keiarna’s independence storyline fizzled out.
• Quote:

  “Are you ever going to consider being with somebody… who doesn’t help you move into their house? Like, that’s crazy.”
  — Brandy, 11:19

• The gift-giving scene is highlighted for its anticlimax: Greg gives Keiarna a jewelry store box that turns out to just have a picture frame, not jewelry.
• Further debate over shared property, with Greg dodging and deflecting on the commitment front.

5. Tia and Amira's Sisterly Reunion

[16:37 – 19:52]

• Tia meets with her half-sister Amira, both expressing regret their relationship didn’t begin earlier. They discuss family complexities stemming from their late father's infidelity.
• The hosts note a theme of the episode: forgiving absentee/cheating fathers while mothers get little grace.
• Quote:

  “The dads are getting a lot of forgiveness today on this show. We’re forgiving the dads a lot…”
  — Brandy, 19:50

6. Wendy's Family Blow-Up: The Main Event

[20:19 – 39:45]

a. Introducing Black Toilet Paper

[21:55 – 23:02]

• The hosts are both fascinated and repelled by Wendy’s choice of black toilet paper. They riff hilariously on its impracticality.
• Quote:

  “This is gross to say, but you’re used to what white toilet paper does, and it… gives you the temperature of what’s going on, you know?”
  — Brandy, 22:18

b. Confrontation with Susan & Ivy

[24:12 – 39:45]

• Wendy tells her mother and sister she reconnected with her father, reigniting old wounds. Susan (her mother) goes off, leading to a screaming match that forces Wendy to send her kids upstairs.
• Ivy’s offhand comment (“he gave birth to you”) triggers Susan, leading her to clarify in no uncertain terms she did all the work as a parent and refers to Wendy’s dad as merely a “sperm donor.”
• Quote:

  “I gave birth to her. I was the one in labor, in pain, right? Okay? He was just a freaking sperm donor.”
  — Susan (quoted by Tiffany), 25:14

• The fight escalates, with Susan standing her ground and ultimately storming out with Ivy. Wendy is left attributing her desire for a relationship with her father to being outnumbered in her own family.

7. Meta-Discussion: Was This All a Storyline?

[34:45 – 40:55]

• The hosts reflect, debating whether Wendy anticipated her mother’s eruption for the sake of a storyline, and note that while her father is getting a pass for absenteeism, Susan endures criticism for emotional outbursts.
• Quote:

  “You shouldn’t be yelling at someone like that in their own home. That’s crazy… But just to see the dynamic and just knowing, just knowing for years, or suspecting at least for years, that’s how Susan is… and then seeing her do it, it’s like, ‘Oh yeah, there she is!’”
  — Brandy, 39:51

• Ronnie (Brandy) speculates that Wendy uses these moments for screen time, whereas Ben (Tiffany) suggests this was more about showing personal growth.

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• [02:19] Brandy:
  “It’s never done because now she’s like, okay, I can have a storyline for next year, too. Should we do the pool or the basement?”
• [04:56] Brandy:
  “It’s always the ones who spilled the milk that said that.”
• [14:33] Brandy (on the picture frame gift):

• [25:14] Susan (via Tiffany):
  “I gave birth to her. I was the one in labor, in pain, right? Okay? He was just a freaking sperm donor.”
• [32:12] Tiffany:
  “And then Ivy and Susan both start chanting, ‘bring Eddie out, bring Eddie out.’ Mocking them with their own stupid T-shirts.”
• [39:14] Tiffany:
  “I mean, I love those scenes when it’s like, I didn’t feel like she was yelling to have a reality show moment. She was yelling because she had, like, years of pent-up anger around this situation that come tumbling out.”
