Episode Overview

This episode is a spirited, hilarious recap and commentary on Part 1 of The Real Housewives of Potomac (RHOP) Season 10 Reunion. Ben and Ronnie dive into the major drama, controversies, and shade that unfolded among the Housewives, with their trademark irreverent, Bravo-loving style. They break down everything from messy accusations to deliciously petty moments, focusing on fan-favorite Stacy Rice, her QVC persona, identity squabbles, cannabis business drama, and why certain cast members are "pressed."

---

Key Discussion Points & Insights

Stacy Rice: The QVC Queen Takes Center Stage

• Stacy’s Smile & Clip Package: The hosts open by poking fun at Stacy's ever-present QVC smile, her questionable on-air wardrobe (“dish rags that don’t sop anything up”), and the reunion’s relentless focus on her “lies.”

  • Quote: "I've not seen her wear one decent thing on there. And every single time she acts like she's going to the osc, she's like, 'Look at this. You want to feel like a real woman?'" (Caroline, 04:01)

• Performative Accusations & Vanity Fair Acclaim: Andy asks if her presence is a “performance,” noting Stacy made Vanity Fair’s Best Performances list. The hosts agree this irks her castmates and love Stacy’s ability to rise above it.

  • Quote: "They literally tried to take her down all season, and she got on Vanity Fair. She's just sitting there cracking up, like next to Leonardo DiCaprio, you know?" (Brandi, 05:45)

Voice and Accent Debates

• QVC Voice vs. Real Voice: Allegations that Stacy has multiple voices become a running comedy—her stagey QVC persona vs. her real-life tone.

  • Quote: "It's like the baby from Roger Rabbit, right? Like, when you hear her really talk... I ain't wearing rayon for free." (Diana, 09:42)

• Accent Politics & Social Climbing Shade:

  • Tia is accused of “marrying up” and having a "fake" British accent, leading to classist digs. The hosts find the back-and-forth petty and unconvincing.
  • Quote: "I didn't love Tia being like, 'Oh, well, you married up.' Seemed kind of gross..." (Caroline, 10:21)

Social Status, Travel & Snobbery

• Traveling the world is debated as an accomplishment—Stacy is mocked for boastfully mentioning her trip to Nigeria, while Tia acts unimpressed.
• The hosts highlight this as classic "Housewives" peacocking.

The TJ and Divorce Drama

• Did Stacy Pay for a Relationship? The cast revisits accusations Stacy paid TJ to appear on the show. Stacy gives evasive, “Stacy-typical” answers ("I stand my truth").
  • Quote: “She goes, I still stand my truth. Okay, so yes or no?” (Caroline, 13:47)
• Legal Documents & Receipts: Ben/ Ronnie are skeptical of the so-called “receipts” that never fully surface on the show.

Cannabis Business Copycatting

• Cannabis Line Feud: Wendy charges Stacy with copying her cannabis company and “stealing” the Nigerian heritage with product names. Stacy denies but the hosts side-eye her explanation as transparent payback.
  • Quote: "Wendy says, I think it was a way for Stacy to get back at Eddie and I... Well, that's an interesting thought, Wendy, and you’re probably absolutely correct." (Emily, 22:12)

Angel’s Struggles as the Newbie

• Angel is depicted as a lackluster, easily hazed “rookie” housewife who doesn’t stand her ground, giving the “bullies” more ammunition.
  • Quote: "Angel responds the way a mature adult would... it reads as fear... they're just gonna keep on needling." (Brandi, 35:14)

Catfish Allegations and Filter Fights

• The infamous “catfish” accusation stings Angel, who struggles to move on while other ladies and the hosts agree these jokes are par for the course in the Housewives universe.
• Facetune and cosmetic filters are openly discussed (with much laughter).

Personal Insults, Petty Moments, and Apology Attempts

• Moments of body-shaming and comparisons to celebrities (e.g., Forest Whitaker) are debated; Angel apologizes, but the hosts note the apology is lukewarm.
• Wendy’s “four degrees” comeback and Ashley’s Social Security number dig bring the trademark shade.

Ashley: From Fun to Sinister

• Ashley’s playfulness this season is dubbed “meaner” and more “sinister,” especially her jokes about Wendy’s jail stint, which the hosts—and the cast—find less funny and more pointed.

Well, hello and welcome to Watch what Crappens. This is part two of a two part recap. If you're like, hey, wait a minute, I didn't hear part one. Guys, it's because we put out a lot of recaps. Go back and listen to part one. Okay, it's before this one.

[Diana]

Bye.

[Caroline]

Enjoy the show.

[Diana]

So now let's talk about the QVC queen stuff. Stacy Rice. Stacy, give me an honest smile.

[Caroline]

She's like, hello, Andy. Stacy's frozen crazy smile. This entire reunion was hilarious.

[Brandi]

Just so great. So great.

[Emily]

Well, it's been a banner year for the QVC queen. Despite the fact that some of her FL haven't been buying what she's been selling.

[Brandi]

That was all right. That was a pretty good pun. I'm gonna give it to the reunion team because normally it's something like when.

[Emily]

You'Re on qvc, some of women don't want to see anymore.

[Brandi]

So I was like, I think not buying what you're selling. I'm going to give some cadoos to that one.

[Caroline]

Yeah. And he's like, well, do it all.

[Diana]

Through all the accusations of lying, Stacy will rise.

[Caroline]

Watch and Stacy's just like, I love it. She's like, oh, my God, it's my clip. He's referenced me being a liar five times in one paragraph.

[Diana]

I love it.

[Caroline]

I'm glad to be here. Thank you so much for having me here. So we see her clip package, and I will cracking up through the whole clip package because during the season, while it's happening every week, it's like, enough about this. But seeing it all in a clip package, I just was cracking up that they're calling her out on every single lie, which turned out to mostly be true. I think that she was lying in any case, which I guess we always knew.

[Brandi]

She's just such a perfect specimen for this show. This is what we want in our Real Housewives. Take note of Rooney.

[Caroline]

So.

[Emily]

So Andy's like, all right, well, why am I so obsessed with watching your old QVC videos? She's like, are you? Yes.

[Brandi]

And then we see more of her, you know, QVC things like, wow, I.

[Emily]

Feel like this is the pink of a woman.

[Brandi]

Walk into that holiday party and be unforgettable. And she's like, wearing a smock.

[Emily]

Look, this is a great Gallup outfit. Wear this to your next black tie event.

[Brandi]

It's just like. It's just like a sack.

[Caroline]

And I can't stress enough how talented she is at just even keeping a smile on her face, because the clothes they have her in are just terrible. I mean, they do look like dish rags. They look like dollar store dish rags that don't ever sop anything up. You know, like, you wet the counters down, and then you just move the water around on the counters. They are terrible. They're sewn terribly. The colors are terrible. I've not seen her wear one decent thing on there. And every single time she acts like she's going to the osc, she's like, look at this. You want to feel like a real woman?

[Emily]

Put on this piece of fabric.

[Caroline]

Yeah. And then, of course, the famous earring one that you bring up all the time. Talk about length, talk about drama, talk about stones.

[Brandi]

It really just tickles me every time. So Andy does that line and he's.

[Emily]

Like, kiana, do you think you could doze off to the soothing sounds of Stacy's videos? Did you just doze off while I was talking?

[Fiona]

She's like, no, not for me, actually, because I have seen them, and, like, I just think that they're like. I think they're very entertaining.

[Emily]

It's like, wow. Well, that's great from here, Kierna.

[Brandi]

Entertaining.

[Emily]

That's a concept you should look into anyway.

[Diana]

You could learn a lot from those QVZ clips, Karen.

[Caroline]

I like that, Kieran. I was going to be shady because he's like, did you doze? Was it soothing or whatever?

[Giselle]

She's like, that's a no for me, Andy.

[Caroline]

But she knows that the world is on Stacy's side, so she course corrects yes. She's like, they are entertaining.

[Emily]

Yeah.

[Brandi]

I think they actually all are being a bit careful because they do know that everyone loves Stacy.

[Emily]

And Andy's like, well, Stacy, you made it onto Vanity Fair's best performances of 2025. Ladies, round of applause.

[Brandi]

It's like begrudging clapping around. It's like, why does this get to be in Vanity Fair? She's like, they literally tried to take.

[Caroline]

Her down all season, and she got on Vanity Fair. She's just sitting there cracking up, like.

[Brandi]

Next to Leonardo DiCaprio, you know, just so great, love.

[Caroline]

When legacy does things, she goes, God, won't he do it? That's a la la Kent quote the.

[Brandi]

One, like, all the time.

[Emily]

Well, how did that make you feel when you saw that? She's incredibly humbled and grateful. Giselle, what was your reaction? Giselle, why are you grabbing a little towel in your hands and twisting it so much?

[Brandi]

What's happening over there?

[Caroline]

Why are you holding a Barbie whose.

[Diana]

Head you're ripping off?

[Caroline]

She's like, well, Andy Potomac has gotten some drama, and, you know, people were in jail. Sorry, Sor.

[Diana]

Wendy.

[Caroline]

People will be in jail, probably. Sorry, Wendy. People's. Everyone who knows her will probably be in jail. Sorry, Wendy. Sorry about that, Wendy. So scared.

[Emily]

I'm scared, actually.

[Caroline]

But, you know, we had Wendy, we have Karen, and it was just like, oh, well, here's the positive thing. So that's good. So congratulations for that.

[Brandi]

That was a very diplomatic response from Giselle.

[Emily]

And he's like, well, Stacy, do you consider what you do on the show to be a performance? Because one could say that is exactly what these ladies take issue with in the first place. And now they're like, yeah, this.

[Brandi]

This performance, like, they were waiting.

[Emily]

Well, I think that's one of the most beautiful things about my QVC videos coming to light is that you're able to see that I was always the same person. I think it's very clear. And Ashley's like, but you were performing.

[Diana]

You were performing.

[Caroline]

Karen's like, it was a job. She's like, indeed. But I think you can see that. You can see my personality, my genuine joy of being alive wearing Rayon, I think you can see that runs through me when you see those videos.

[Emily]

Well, I would say that I sat in front of Stacey on a plane coming back from one of the cast trips, and I could hear somebody speak, and I didn't even notice her because her voice was completely different.

[Brandi]

Different imagination.

[Emily]

Here's what she said. She said, britney, why would you ever say those things about my husband and this stupid movie? I'm waiting for it to end. I'm just gonna go to sleep now before I shake Britney's chair.

[Brandi]

Imagine Tia's just behind Meredith the entire time.

[Caroline]

Yeah, we just see a clip. We just see a clip of the.

[Diana]

Plane saying, how dare you win Sus. My husband was on textbook.

[Emily]

It was a totally different voice that you use, Stacy.

[Caroline]

Well, you would know about different voices. You're the queen of acc, aren't you? So you could call it.

[Giselle]

It's like, oh, can I say something.

[Diana]

About this accent thing? I do feel that Stacy has a QVC voice, but I just thought she was looking for something to pin on me, and that's when she found that I have an English accent. And it clearly triggers you because you married up and you're trying to be prim and proper, and I'm actually a person with a British accent, so. Ooh, can't marry into that, can you, sweetie?

[Brandi]

Well, no, I didn't marry up, and.

[Emily]

It'S not about your English accent. It's about how it doesn't r true when you talk. And Angel's like, this is kind of a silly argument. I mean, that's her accent, and you'll.

[Brandi]

Get to know me. And Giselle's like, well, Stacy, when did you hear her speak differently?

[Emily]

She's like, well, in the same way that she's heard me speak differently in a private conversation. She's been married to a man from Chicago for years.

[Brandi]

So I think what Stacy's trying to say is that. Well, first of all, if her conspiracy theory is that Tia does not have a British accent, that's hilarious. But I'm assuming basically that Tia has picked up some Americanisms and some Chicago isms. But I think what Tia is trying to say about Stacy is the voice that you're hearing now, this, like, QVC voice, this is not her real voice. And the real Stacy has a much more like.

[Caroline]

It's like the baby from Roger Rabbit, right? Like, when you hear her really talk.

[Diana]

She'S like, what, you want me to do QVC again? That's the big fucking bucks this time. I ain't wearing rayon for free.

[Caroline]

All right.

[Diana]

I'm huge now I'm infinity fair. Get it together.

[Brandi]

Yeah. Like, she has. She has, like, an authentic voice that was, like, always the voice of her life. And then, like, then she goes on TV and she's, hi, I'm Stacy Ross. And she's like, this isn't who you are. You're saying, this is who you are. But I know your voice is not like this at all. So it's kind of a funny argument. But especially I just love that Stacy's retort is like, you don't have a British accent. It's like, not a very strong. That was a very strong counter.

[Caroline]

But I didn't love Tia being like.

[Diana]

Oh, well, you married up, so I don't like that.

[Caroline]

Seemed kind of gross, like on these shows.

[Brandi]

So what can I say?

[Emily]

What can I say?

[Caroline]

Yeah.

[Diana]

She's like, well, I've also got American children, you might notice, because one of them makes out with mirrors. Only Americans do that.

[Caroline]

You're just exposing your ignorance.

[Diana]

And it's funny because you talk about how many countries you've been to and you're always counting it out.

[Caroline]

And then we see a clip of Tia and Stacy being at lunch and Stacy saying, I've been to Nigeria.

[Brandi]

Yes.

[Caroline]

So I just thought, I don't know why that was so funny. I feel like the editors were like, we need to save this clip. It'll just make Ronnie laugh. I've been to Nigeria.

[Brandi]

So then Tia is like, well, that's.

[Emily]

Clearly a thing for you. You think it's an accomplishment. But if you were really that traveled.

[Brandi]

And worldly, basically saying like, oh, for those of us in the traveling class, it's nothing to be like, oh, I've been to Nigeria. Like, whatever I call that Tuesday.

[Emily]

Stacy's like, I do think that traveling the world is an accomplishment. Absolutely, yes. But you're new to this. Clearly it's a new thing for you.

[Brandi]

Clearly trying to pull a rank on this.

[Caroline]

It's time for a commercial. It's time for a Crappin's commercial.

[Brandi]

The new year is here. Get back into an at home routine you love and elevate your space with Wayfair.

[Caroline]

From bedding and mattresses to storage solutions for every room in the house, Wayfair is your one stop shop.

[Brandi]

You know, I am so excited to get my home ready for the new season, the new year ahead. I am thinking about stuff for my patio. I'm thinking about ways I can update this little office I'm in right now. And I just love going around and browsing for all the wares and seeing what treasures I can find.

[Caroline]

It's really convenient. They have everything our home needs. This season, I'm going to be getting some outdoor chairs for my balcony to just sit and chill. And I'm also going to get some pillows because, you know, a color refresh is always good to help the new seasons come in and go get organized.

[Brandi]

Refreshed, and back on track this new year. For way less, head to Wayfair.com right now to shop all things home. That's W a y f Wayfair. Every style, every home.

[Caroline]

So Giselle's like, well, I have an accent, too.

[Diana]

Okay.

[Caroline]

So he says, I want to go.

[Diana]

Back in time for a moment to when your integrity came into question. Oh, surely. That was day one, Andy.

[Giselle]

British humor.

[Diana]

Exactly one year ago, we sat on this stage. TJ was claiming that you paid him to be on the show with him.

[Caroline]

And Wendy's like, bring Eddie out.

[Diana]

Bring Eddie out.

[Caroline]

T shirts are available@happy eddie.com.

[Brandi]

So, yeah, I know. Serious. I was like, oh, my God.

[Caroline]

Bring Eddie out.

[Brandi]

Please don't make.

[Caroline]

I'm like, look at Wendy. You can't. You can't get Wendy out. She'll still be here trying to sell merch. Yeah, I don't care.

[Brandi]

Seriously? Seriously. Yeah. So then we see flashbacks to last year, etcetera, And. And all the TJ stuff and all that stuff. So then we. And now we dive into, like, did Tea change?

[Caroline]

This is also very her. This is also a very Stacy answer because he goes, so you still deny.

[Diana]

Those claims about T change?

[Caroline]

She goes, I still stand my truth. Okay, so yes or no?

[Brandi]

Yeah, that's not really an answer.

[Emily]

Sandy's like, well, did Timo meet TJ when you were on QVC with him? She's like, well, of course. And was TJ any reason for your breakup with Emo? She's like, no, not at all. I just needed to have a storyline for last season. Okay, well, who was the one who actually filed for divorce? I was.

[Brandi]

And so we see now on screen, you know, the divorce filing or whatever, at least. I don't know. Is this supposed to be proof? There's a lot of back and forth this season over, like, whether or not this was a real divorce filing or a fake one.

[Caroline]

Yeah, they were saying, oh, she just got that online somewhere. She went to, like, Legal Zoom and printed this shit out. And I can't tell the difference. I mean, what do I know? And then Andy's like, wendy and Tia.

[Diana]

You seem to be the only people who got to have conversations with Timo. So Ryan from Atlanta said, stacy, you claim that Teemo came to Potomac and Ponies event because of your relationship with Wendy, but yet he didn't attend the couple's dinner with Wendy, Eddie. So Tia and her husband because of Wendy and Eddie. So make it make sense, girl. I can't even make it make sense, and I'm reading it off of a card. Thank you, Ryan from Atlanta. Please write better questions. I mean, what the hell is this?

[Emily]

Well, he knows how hurt I was by Wendy and Eddie in the moment for being the messengers of such a painful moment. So I did not go to dinner, not only because he was not in town, but because of last season.

[Brandi]

It's like, okay, so.

[Emily]

Well, regarding him not being in town, it seemed like rolling the tape proved that the timeline was not what you said said it was.

[Brandi]

Well, looking back at the episodes, it.

[Emily]

All looks like a bunch of mumbo jumbo. And I think what's important to understand is that my husband travels twice a week, if not eight or nine times to Germany and sometimes internationally. One time, he even spent an entire week circumnavigating the entire globe. Five times. He just wasn't in town. So I didn't want him to meet Wendy and Eddie just yet. And if I invited you to meet my family and I said to you, he's uncomfortable, why would you go back and repeat that right to the person?

[Giselle]

But you didn't.

[Diana]

You didn't say that.

[Caroline]

I mean, she did, but she also lied in the same thing. And that's the thing with Stacy. You know, there's like, little kernels in there. And she's like, it's just so bizarre to me. It's so bizarre to me that you wanted to make Teemo uncomfortable.

[Diana]

It's like, oh, well, the strolling broke the camel's back. For me, it's rather just owning that you got caught out and you said something wasn't true, and you tried to make it out that I lied on you, and the minute that you got caught out, you lied on me.

[Brandi]

Zoo.

[Diana]

Who's lying on who?

[Caroline]

Liar.

[Diana]

Lala.

[Emily]

Well, you did not come to meet Teemo and Arabella to gently get to know us. You came to clock in and gather information to take back to your master.

[Brandi]

And everyone's like, if we not use this language. And Ashley's like, that's a strong word.

[Emily]

And Tia's like, my master. Yes. She was reporting back to her master. I said what I said.

[Brandi]

And they're like, so Giselle's like, well, you report back to your master, and that'd be Wendy. And Wendy's like, I'm nobody's master. Can we stop saying the word master so much? This is really making me uncomfortable.

[Caroline]

Giselle's like, that's crazy.

[Diana]

Yeah, well, Wyatt had been crossed, and I think that context is very important. I was so uncomfortable because I had heard what you guys had gone to repeat about Monique to her ex husband, and that affected her family. She had. It took her 4. 4 extra hours to pile her hair into the shape of a freeway that day. It was very, very upsetting to her.

[Emily]

Well, and here's another thing for me.

[Brandi]

And by the way, we see a flashback of Kierna saying that. It was like that Cookie told her that Stacy told Chris about this whole thing.

[Emily]

So Tia's like, but here's another thing for me. I said to you, do you know Chris Samuels? And you said to me, I do not know that man. And then you said to me, I would never discuss that man's family with him, and I've only seen him socially.

[Brandi]

But then we see a. We see a flashback of her saying that. But then we also see the late night thing of where Stacy says she and Timo saw other people, and Chris was one of those people.

[Emily]

I.

[Brandi]

It's weird because when in that conversation with the security camera or whatever, I thought I could have sworn that Stacy was saying that she just knew Chris and Chris was someone that she knew. I didn't realize that she had said that, like. Like, Chris was one of the people that she went on a date with. But maybe I just remembered it incorrectly.

[Caroline]

Yeah, I remembered it being that. Yeah, that she said that. What's the big deal? So, like, I went on a date with Chris or whatever.

[Brandi]

Yeah. And it still is not a big deal, because they are. She doesn't know.

[Emily]

She didn't know what's her face at that time, Monique.

[Caroline]

Yeah, but then she should have just said that, like, so I went on a couple of dates with them. Who cares? Instead of being like, no. What? I don't know him. Okay, well, I mean, I know him socially. Okay, well, I dated him. She's. It's just typical Stacy.

[Brandi]

But I also think you can.

[Caroline]

I'm not even gonna try anymore.

[Brandi]

I think you can also, like, go on a date with someone. You go on, like, one or two dates, and, like, nothing happens. And then you're just sort of like, like, yeah, I know this person socially. Like, we're friends. We don't really have Much of a relationship, but yeah, she could. She should have just copped up to it and, like, put it to bed.

[Caroline]

I think the biggest defense, the best defense here would be like, you guys are blaming me when you've got a whole ass cookie over there. Yeah. Has anybody been reading up on what cookie does?

[Brandi]

Yeah.

[Caroline]

And what cookie's guilty of? Come on now. No one, no one should trust anything that comes out of cookies.

[Brandi]

That's correct.

[Emily]

So Tia's like, so for me, I literally walked away and I was like, my heart was racing and I thought, if somebody can hold your hand and lie like that. I was really bothered. More bothered than I was seeing that they never replaced that old shitty banister.

[Brandi]

In my father's old home.

[Diana]

Disgusting.

[Emily]

How could they keep that thing? They not know it'd be on television.

[Diana]

Okay, well, maple syrup from isn't really better than Mrs. Butterworth. Fight it out in the comments, says Stacy, it seems like you had way more smoke for Tia at the Shia launch than you did for Ashley. And Ashley acted way worse to you all season.

[Caroline]

And then we see the flashback of that and Tia saying, can you just shut up? You're not gonna tell me to shut up. Get your ass out of my event.

[Diana]

Take your things. Toodle.

[Caroline]

Do.

[Emily]

Do you regret kicking dia.

[Caroline]

Ouch.

[Emily]

No, I don't. Alright. Well. Well, Joanna from fabric said last at last year's reunion, you were adamant about not opening your own cannabis line.

[Brandi]

And so we see that where she was like, no, I'm definitely not going to do that.

[Emily]

Well, then you just turned around this season and launched your own cab at the cannabis line. Can you admit the gears were in motion to open up the business last year? Well, I can admit that I held many meetings with many business endeavors and it wasn't a done deal. That's what I can admit.

[Caroline]

Then why didn't you just say that? Well, I wanted to get back into it because I didn't owe you that, Giselle.

[Diana]

I didn't owe that to you.

[Caroline]

But I said, stacy's coming in competition for happy Eddie. And I told you the truth, that I did not have a cannabis line at that moment.

[Brandi]

But you were like, absolutely not. No cannabis.

[Emily]

Absolutely not. When you asked me, it was absolutely not.

[Brandi]

But then as soon as we started the season, you were like, I'm starting a cannabis line. It's just like, why wouldn't you just say I'm in the meetings or something about it? She goes, well. And angel was like, I'm not sure why she even cares about this. You'll get to know me. And Stacey's like, because I absolutely did not have a cannabis line when you asked me. Like, okay.

[Caroline]

So now they're talking about, what bullshit is that? You know what bullshit that is? And Angel's like, I'm not sure why she cares because I absolutely did not have a cannabis line when you asked me. And they're like, whatever, whatever. And so they're like, okay. So Wendy, did Stacy have pure int Naming her company with a Nigerian word? And Wendy's like, yes. She knew what she was doing. Come on. I'm honoring my Nigerian heritage.

[Diana]

I've been there before.

[Caroline]

Well, I was going to name it 10,000 miles, which is what I got last time I went to Nigeria. It was just too long of a name.

[Emily]

Oh, wow. You think it was special? You've been on the airplane.

[Brandi]

So Wendy says, when Andy asks about, like, the name Shia, Wendy's like, yeah, she knew what she was doing.

[Emily]

I'm honoring my Nigerian heritage. And she was like, the Nigerians want the name back, please.

[Brandi]

So Wendy says, I think it was a way for Stacy to get back at Eddie and I for doing the TJ thing.

[Emily]

Well, that's an interesting thought, Wendy, and you're probably absolutely correct.

[Caroline]

Okay, yeah, that was her way, I think. I think that's a good theory that she was like, fuck these people. They fucked with me. I'm going to steal their stupid weed business.

[Diana]

Yeah, well, and ask from Tasia says, Giselle, Ashley, and Kierna. None of Stacy's alleged lies are about you or affect you in any way. So why are you so pressed?

[Caroline]

And Stacy's like, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.

[Diana]

Andy, you stole my ding. A ding, A ding, A ding. I already did a ding. A ding, A ding. I didn't even hear it.

[Brandi]

She stole my invisible bell right out of my hands.

[Host/Announcer]

Ah.

[Caroline]

What? No. My ding ding is from Nigeria. Hi, Heritage there.

[Emily]

Hello. Welcome to the club.

[Brandi]

So Giselle says, just be clear. So you. We were shown this information. Did you not expect us just to not talk about it?

[Emily]

Well, I just don't think that you treated me fairly, especially being women who've been with men who've humiliated you both. And she's like, oh, my God, this.

[Fiona]

Is such a victim complex. My biggest fear is to go to jail because of a victim complex.

[Caroline]

TJ humiliated you? Like, yes. And you should have shown me some.

[Diana]

Empathy and some compassion.

[Emily]

Can you just believe this?

[Caroline]

For what, Stacy?

[Diana]

For what?

[Caroline]

Ah, the man got on and talked to Eddie. He said you paid him, and then you so happened that Ashley and I were in la and we see a paperwork. It just so happens we were at a restaurant and somebody brought paperwork right up to our table.

[Diana]

La?

[Caroline]

So we're not supposed to bring it up. It was just a coincidence. Talk about lying. You two are so full of it. You and Ashley just happened upon this famous actress at a restaurant who just happened to have papers to show you. Come on.

[Brandi]

And yet nothing's ever, like, like, shown up in the public sphere, right? None of these papers.

[Caroline]

None of this. Yes, the papers were. Well, they did. Yeah. Remember, we looked at the papers and.

[Brandi]

I quote, unquote, we made a big.

[Caroline]

Mistake about it because we couldn't do. We couldn't do dates, right?

[Brandi]

Yes. I still don't believe it. Whatever. I'm a denier. Karen is like.

[Caroline]

But they weren't, like, signed legal documents. You know what I mean? It was, like, from someone.

[Brandi]

Oh, well, that thing.

[Caroline]

Yes, that thing.

[Brandi]

Yeah, that was said.

[Caroline]

I, Stacy Rush, agree to pay TJ Half of my income for the rest of eternity.

[Brandi]

No, but then TJ in terms of, like, TJ suing to get his money back, all that stuff just never surfaced. And TJ was like, I've got the receipts that never surface. Like, nothing showed up. So it's really dubious.

[Emily]

So Tia's like, do not see from the other side. It cannot be that you're the victim all the time. At some point, you have to realize that there are things that you're doing that are making people react to you a certain way. You lied. It's like, all right, well, Stacy, it's clear that you have a road ahead of you to get some of these. Oh, angel, sorry.

[Brandi]

I shouldn't mention roads.

[Emily]

I know you're still traumatized by Colorado. Okay, give her a moment to stop trembling. Stacy, how will you improve your relationships and regain trust?

[Caroline]

I'm looking up to see if TJ Ever sees her. I don't see that he did.

[Brandi]

Well, you look that up now.

[Caroline]

I have to know.

[Brandi]

I will continue. Stacy goes, well, looking ahead.

[Emily]

I just need to be more direct and say exactly how I feel instead.

[Brandi]

Of sort of just beating around the bush because I think it can be misconstrued.

[Caroline]

And Ash is like, aren't dishonest.

[Diana]

So I'd like to.

[Caroline]

I'd like to work from that if. If there is a next season for me.

[Emily]

Wink.

[Caroline]

She crosses her fingers and gives the camera a wink. I hope you have room for the COVID of Vanity Fair magazine.

[Emily]

And Andy's like, well, Stacy, sometimes when a housewife is gassed up by the fans. It goes to their head, and it affects how they behave the next season. Are you worried that that could happen to you? That's my way of saying, don't get too excited, bitch.

[Caroline]

Never, Andy.

[Emily]

Never.

[Diana]

Okay, well, we're gonna put a pin in all things Stacy, but now we're.

[Giselle]

Gonna get back to.

[Diana]

You're.

[Brandi]

You're.

[Diana]

You're gonna still get in trouble, missy. Okay, now we're gonna break for lunch.

[Caroline]

And so Stacy's like, wouldn't a liquid IV be so good right now?

[Giselle]

Do you like those, Ashley? She's like, they taste bad. I got a vitamin D shot in my butt and everything.

[Brandi]

Stacy's like, mm.

[Emily]

Well, I'm actually doing a paid read right now, so just play along if.

[Brandi]

You don't mind liquid IV keeping you.

[Emily]

Alive and perky all day long.

[Caroline]

So a producer counts down, and we're back.

[Diana]

Welcome back. Well, Angel. Angel came into this season boring, and she left the season somehow even more boring. So come on. What's going on with that?

[Caroline]

So we see an angel package, and when I wake up, I'm not sure how many hours have passed. I'm like, why is it dark outside?

[Emily]

Angel, where are you currently living? Is it on earth?

[Brandi]

Get it?

[Emily]

Earth. Angel. Andy.

[Brandi]

We're back and forth to Colorado still.

[Emily]

And we've purchased our Potomac home, and.

[Brandi]

We'Re currently meeting, undergoing renovations with the same home designer that we did for our Colorado home. And I'm super excited to make this one home.

[Emily]

And Ashley's like, oh, is it 30 acres?

[Fiona]

Huh?

[Emily]

No, no, it has a few. And if you lived in the Potomac.

[Brandi]

Area, you'd actually know what I'm talking about.

[Emily]

See, acres are different in Potomac, so.

[Brandi]

You would understand if you lived here.

[Giselle]

I chose not to live in Potomac. I made the choice after they kind of kicked me out for being off key in my Roberta flag song, so whatever.

[Caroline]

Oh, okay, Ashley, Sure.

[Brandi]

Yeah.

[Diana]

Well, did Tia help you with the sale?

[Caroline]

And she's like, no, Tia didn't help me. I didn't come on the show to look for clients. I came on the show to look for friends.

[Brandi]

Thank you. No, she didn't. She didn't come on the show to.

[Emily]

Look for friends because you made that perfectly clear. Ra.

[Brandi]

And we see flashbacks of Ashley accusing Angel of. Of attempting to move, basically to be. She came on the show to be. Become famous.

[Emily]

And she's like, well, no, I wasn't the one to have a Kiki corner every five seconds when the whole eviction thing happened. Giselle, Wendy, and Ashley met up to talk about me. There was constant whiplash about not belonging.

[Brandi]

In this group and belonging in this group.

[Emily]

Wendy's like, but how come you haven't checked Tia then?

[Brandi]

Because Tia is the one that told Giselle to say, guess what? You know about all that stuff?

[Emily]

I said, well, she was very upset with me. Very, very upset.

[Caroline]

Well, Tia, you told me she got kicked out.

[Diana]

Da. And she's like, I've apologized to angel before, but I would like to apologize again.

[Caroline]

And she's like, well, me and Tia spoke about it. And I told Tia that regardless of the way that she delivered it to Giselle, it wasn't her place to tell Giselle what was going on with me, because if I wanted her to know, I would have told Giselle myself.

[Diana]

Okay.

[Host/Announcer]

All right.

[Diana]

I'm bored. Isabella, hold from New Orleans wants you to know people are saying Bobby's the hottest Real housewives of Potomac husband, minus the eating with his mouth open scenes. How do you feel about that?

[Brandi]

I agree, and thank you for the compliment. And you will get to know me.

[Emily]

All right, do the other ladies agree? Who here thinks that Bobby is hotter than the men that they are married to?

[Brandi]

Who's gonna go on the record is. Of course. They're like, no. No. What? That's crazy.

[Emily]

No.

[Brandi]

And so Wendy's like, I like. Like, I love me some Eddie chocolate. M. I like white chocolate. And Wendy's like, yeah, you do like white chocolate? Yeah. Yeah. What type of.

[Emily]

What type of chocolate do you like? Andy? He's like, the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice. And they're like, woo.

[Brandi]

They love that.

[Caroline]

I know. That's why Andy.

[Diana]

And he's like, you ladies are making me blush. So, Karen and Angel, you two have known each other for 20 years, huh? And Angel's like, okay, well, angel, before you even answer, I want you to clear up the chin check debacle. It seemed like your tone about it changed from the shopping moment to the briefness. Was it a chin check or was it not a chin check? What's a chin check? Come on, guys. Chin check.

[Emily]

Well, I thought to myself, is it.

[Brandi]

Worth it to drag this thing out? The answer was no. I'm like, thank you. America says thank you. And Wendy's like, but don't you understand? Do you understand how I could feel some type of way about you changing your energy?

[Emily]

And Cameron's like, well, can I see something before Wendy's in my life?

[Fiona]

You know, because, like, you know, that's why I said when I went.

[Brandi]

And Angel's like, well, that's why.

[Emily]

That's why I said, when I watch.

[Brandi]

It back, I can understand. But they start talking over each other because Kieran is trying to jump in and explain herself. And so Angel's, oh, oh, sorry. Go ahead. And they're like, oh, angel, look at her.

[Emily]

She's controlled by Kierna.

[Caroline]

Yeah. Like, look at her getting so upset.

[Diana]

God, Kieran is so controlling.

[Caroline]

But then Kierna is also feeling that pressure from the ladies because they're like, wait. Wait a minute. I was talking to. I was talking to Angel.

[Diana]

And she's like, well, I'm talking now.

[Caroline]

Kierna, she's like, she does have to kind of assert her dominance.

[Brandi]

But then they.

[Caroline]

But it's because she. It's because she's trying to impress those ladies, too. You know, it's also sad.

[Brandi]

But then they all start acting like child therapists because Wendy's like, come on, Angel.

[Emily]

It's okay, babe. You can speak. It's okay. It's safe.

[Brandi]

You can talk.

[Emily]

You're saying, go ahead, Angel. You have the floor. You can talk.

[Brandi]

You're in a safe space.

[Giselle]

Well, I'm talking now.

[Emily]

Now.

[Caroline]

Well, what kind of relationship is this? She controls her.

[Diana]

Look at that control.

[Emily]

Kina's like, what I wanted to say is Angel.

[Fiona]

Just before we skip over that, it's like, I want to just make sure that I apologize to you because I use that word.

[Emily]

And Angel's like, yes, and we have talked about it extensively. And Stacey's like, well, so have we.

[Brandi]

And angel goes, well, and I know how she feels.

[Emily]

And I will say to your point.

[Brandi]

You know, watching it back, I could see how you would think that I.

[Emily]

Was changing my energy in an effort.

[Brandi]

To, I don't know, appease my friend. And when he's like, acquiesce a little.

[Emily]

Bit, she's like, yeah, for the guiz.

[Caroline]

For the guise.

[Diana]

Okay, so once you had the chin check under control, another C word caught you off guard.

[Caroline]

How dare you?

[Diana]

Not that one.

[Caroline]

Oh, okay. Yes.

[Diana]

Catfish.

[Caroline]

Okay, great.

[Diana]

Giselle, what was your intention of bringing up that Photoshop? Okay, yeah.

[Caroline]

Now, normally there's new girls at the beginning of the season, and I brought.

[Diana]

Dia, So I knew her, and I didn't know.

[Caroline]

I didn't know angel at all. And one of those blog sites posted this new girl. You know, girls around the group. And I said to production, I said, well, when am I gonna meet this person? And they said, you have.

[Diana]

It's Angel.

[Caroline]

And I said, no, no.

[Brandi]

Well, I believe Giselle said that. I believe Giselle said it in a shady way. Because the picture on the blog had a. Most likely had a caption that said, you know, tia. And I forget Tia's last name. I always forget Tia's last name. And Angel Massey, right? So, like, angel is there. So she knows that's angel, but she's saying, like, who is this person? Because this person. This is not the same person as angel, right? And so Angel's like, you were being shady. Giselle. God forbid, Angel.

[Emily]

God forbid.

[Brandi]

Giselle. Brian X. Shady on the Real House as a Potomac. You know, it's been around for 10 years. You knew what you're getting involved in. Like, you cannot be shocked.

[Caroline]

Andy's like, well, you all use Facetune, right? And they're like, oh, God. Hell, yes. Thank God for Facetune. Jesus, we love Facetune. I'd pay an extra tax for Facetune, Andy.

[Diana]

I love it.

[Caroline]

And Giselle's like, yes, but, you know, I did make the catfish comment, not Wendy. And Wendy's like, yeah, who made the comment?

[Diana]

I made the comment, duh.

[Caroline]

Okay, well, just to be queer. And Giselle's like, yeah, you know, I wasn't trying to be shady. I just didn't know who you were. And then you continued to talk about it. Oh, my God. No, you did. You guys were coming in here with your little bitty storyline, times the chin check and the. Oh, my God, she uses a filter. They were such stupid things that you guys kept harping on this whole season, and you broke her. I mean, angel, you know, she's a newbie, and she's not very strong, but, man, angel didn't do herself any favors, because then she got offended, and then she just kept being like, but I'm still hurt about you calling me a catfish.

[Brandi]

It's like, oh, I think angel, they did bring it up, but they.

[Caroline]

They.

[Brandi]

They. They started to bring it up more when they saw that this was a sore point for angel. Because Angel.

[Emily]

Angel is the one who I felt.

[Brandi]

Like, kept on reopening it. First it was like every. Everything was fine. And then the next day, it's not fine. And then they talk about it, and then. Then she's still upset. And then she's now upset at Wendy, and she's now saying that, like, okay, now my relations with Wendy and Wendy Owens, me. Apologies. So at a certain point, they're like, okay, we're gonna start with this girl, because she. She cannot take a joke, and she doesn't shut up about it. So now we're gonna roast her for it.

[Caroline]

Well, I think you're definitely right about, like, the catfish thing specifically. But I think they had kept coming for angel, really, for no reason, from the beginning, and trying to upset her that they finally got her. And once she was. It's like that, you know, on these shows, once they finally are like, now I'm upset enough to fight with people, it's always over the wrong part. You know, it's like, I may have missed that chance to get them back earlier. Demand respect earlier. So I'm gonna get it now during the catfish moment. And then it turned into like, oh, but I used to be a TV news journalist, and I relied on my look. So you calling me a catfish, really?

[Brandi]

You knew what you were doing.

[Caroline]

You were bringing women everywhere down. And Giselle's like, you look like a catfish. I didn't even mean you look like a different woman. I meant you look like an actual catfish.

[Brandi]

I think just like, the rule of these shows is that when you come on, especially to one of the shadier franchises, you just have to. You just have to punch. Punch the bully back, as you always say. You gotta. You gotta sort of like, give him a boop on the nose. That's what Bronwyn did. She came in, Heather tried to sort of like, you know, sort of be like, I'm the queen bee around here. And Bronwyn, in her first season was like, nope, and I'm gonna clap back at you left and right with strength and authority. And. And she sort of, like, earned her respect in that way. And angel doesn't really do it. She's sort of. Angel responds, actually the way a mature adult would respond, which is be like, no, that's not the case, and we're not going to talk about it, and we're just going to keep on moving on. And they're like, wow. She, like. It comes from a place that's. It reads as fear, I think, to the other women. So they just are going to keep on needling. I'm not saying any of that is good. It's, like, not good to be in an environment like that. But I think that's why they kept on with angel, because she didn't. Did not really stand up for herself. I think in her mind, she was being, like, really strong and being like, I'm clapping back. But in reality, the way she was clapping back was just letting them know, oh, there's fresh blood here, and we can prey on it very easily. Like when Tia. When Ashley started with Tia earlier in.

[Emily]

The season, and Tia was Like, ashley, keep up.

[Brandi]

Like, it was like, boom.

[Caroline]

Okay?

[Brandi]

Tia is just, like, established like, you. You can't fuck with me. Ashley, try. You may try to, but you're not gonna keep up.

[Caroline]

So Angel's continuing on about this, about how Giselle joked about it the whole season, and it felt like she was hazing her. And Giselle's like, I wasn't. And angel says, okay, well, I'll also say this. And Giselle goes, it wasn't that deep. She goes, well, I want to say this, though. Can I say this? It wasn't deep.

[Diana]

It wasn't deep. Bad.

[Caroline]

She's like, do you want me to apologize or not? Okay, okay, okay, okay. All right. Well, in the melee of everything that was happening, I heard the ha, ha.

[Diana]

Ha, ha, ha, Catfish.

[Caroline]

That's what I heard. And then we see the clip where Wendy's like. Giselle's like, catfish.

[Brandi]

Yeah.

[Caroline]

So she's like, so it all went together in my head there. So I apologize.

[Brandi]

Wendy goes, angel, I hear you, but you were hell bent on saying that. I said it, and all I did was laugh. And you came into this group with a plan and even said it yourself. You looked at Giselle like a big sister. You didn't want to have any smoke for Giselle, but you had all the smoke for me. Even when people were looking at you.

[Emily]

In the face and saying it was.

[Brandi]

Not Wendy, you still did not weed the wet. Your energy. And Angel's like, yeah, but you're still.

[Caroline]

Making fun of her. Like, you're still cackling at the. At the girl, being mean to her at lunch. Like, that's not much better. You may not have actually said catfish, but it's not like you're some innocent in this whole thing. You were being a dick, too. I like that. Wendy's always like, I was the innocent party here. How dare you? You wanted to come. No, you were being an too. Come on, man.

[Brandi]

Well, let's not forget it all came down to that brunch. I mean, there was already kind of like, angel came into the season having met Wendy and was like, don't really know this woman. Like, have. Didn't have the best impression of her in college, but, you know, I'm willing to look past it. And then that brunch happens where Angel's basically saying, like, yeah, this whole chin check thing. Didn't love it, but we're all good now. Everything is fine. And Wendy is like, what the hell? Because you had a different story before, and why are you doing that? And so she Sort of put angel on the spot. And angel was like, why are you coming for me? And then that kind of like, soured their relationship. But Wendy's acting like, oh, I was always open arms to you. Like, it's like, no, Wendy, you took the first chance that you could to kind of like, you know, hey's Angel.

[Caroline]

Wendy is kind of Wendy. Wendy plays from the Heather Gay playbook a little bit where she fucks with people. And then she's like, I've been a.

[Diana]

Good fwend to you.

[Caroline]

Yeah. Like, what? Not really.

[Brandi]

It wasn't the worst offense when she did.

[Caroline]

Need to be, but it was.

[Brandi]

Definitely she was coming for angel in that moment. Like, there's no doubt about it. It definitely felt like a hazing moment. And angel just flopped as usual. And. But now Wendy's like, what? I've been so nice to you, you.

[Caroline]

Know, so, yeah, you know, in life and on Housewives, it's not really what people do. You can't control what people do to you. You can only control how you react.

[Brandi]

Right.

[Caroline]

And I think the sign of true great Real Housewives are how they react. Sometimes it's crazy. Sometimes it's like, with sarcasm or humor or whatever it is. But those reactions are what's good. That's what makes a good housewife. And Angel's reactions are just bad. Like, it doesn't even matter who is right and who is wrong. Giselle, of course, is wrong. Wendy, of course, was wrong, but your reactions were boring.

[Brandi]

Yeah.

[Diana]

And that's.

[Caroline]

That's the biggest sin, man.

[Brandi]

So angel goes, you know, I had.

[Emily]

That energy based off of interactions that.

[Brandi]

We had, and there was just a lot more dip on my chip in reaction to you. And when he goes, well, thank you for owning that. You had extra dip on your chip. Chip. I like that expression, that. A little extra dip on my chip.

[Emily]

Well, so do I.

[Diana]

Okay. Angel Robin from Batman's Ass said, angel. Can you explain what you meant when you referred to Wendy as having an asshole lips and the Forest Whitaker eyes?

[Caroline]

And when he's like, please, please do so, angel goes.

[Brandi]

It goes, yes, that was very harsh. And when he goes, in deep detail, please explain. So we see the flashback of her making fun of Wendy to her sister, and she goes, it was harsh. I was referring to the facial expression that. That she makes that, you know, that.

[Emily]

That he makes and that she makes.

[Brandi]

And how they're similar. Because, you know, Wendy, when you're skeptical, you make this face. And angel kind of makes a generic, like, boop, boop, boop. Face. Like a concentrating face. And she goes. And that's what I was referring to. That was a very Forest Whitaker face. Wendy's like, but you talked about how you don't like people talking about your aesthetic. And so for you to talk about my physical aesthetic, I think is wrong. I mean, this casiper. I mean, if I called you James Earl Jones, would that be wrong?

[Caroline]

So, well, if I made an expression like him, and that's the person you chose, then that would be up to you. If you were just talking about facial expressions, which I was totally just talking about facial expressions.

[Brandi]

Angel, there's no way.

[Caroline]

Stacy's like, rip, Let him rest in peace. God rest his soul.

[Brandi]

I do apologize for saying that, because that was below the belt. It's just not who I am, and.

[Emily]

That'S the end of it. And you will get to know who.

[Brandi]

I am if I'm asked back. But either way, you. You're accepted or you don't. I love that when someone apologizes. Accept it or don't. That's my apology. I'm like, thanks. That made me feel good. Yeah.

[Diana]

All right. Well, Kierna and Angel, watching back, can you understand why some on the Internet gave you the nicknames Madness and Sadness?

[Brandi]

So Angel's like, I think we were a joy and a pleasure to be around. Like, okay, okay.

[Caroline]

That's not what the fan said.

[Giselle]

Yeah. But here's what it is, Andy.

[Diana]

I will say this.

[Giselle]

Looking back, like, when I actually took.

[Diana]

Time to watch it, I didn't say. I did seem a little bit upset. And to be honest, 85% of the group, I got along with very, very well. And let me just. You know, it was just me and angel on an island. And, you know, that hurt. It wasn't true. Okay, Ashley, so what about bringing catfish to the potluck?

[Emily]

And Ashley's like, oh, wasn't that the.

[Brandi]

And Ashley's.

[Fiona]

I mean, if someone calls me a catfish, so what?

[Caroline]

Who cares?

[Brandi]

And angel says, but, girl, you know, it bothered me.

[Emily]

And you were just being nasty and petty, and that's it.

[Fiona]

Oh, it was funny.

[Emily]

No, it wasn't. It was nasty and petty.

[Fiona]

Well, you should learn to laugh and just learn to laugh. It's good for the soul.

[Emily]

So Angel's like, well, I think that.

[Brandi]

You should laugh at yourself, Ashley, because.

[Emily]

You'Ve done a bunch of things that.

[Brandi]

Have been pretty embarrassing, if you ask me.

[Fiona]

She's like, well, learn to laugh.

[Emily]

And she's like, okay.

[Caroline]

I wish that she had said, what are they? Because I would have liked to Hear it. But angel didn't. Angel didn't really get to read. Yeah, well, she. She got the chance. She just, you know, now you could lead. Flopped.

[Brandi]

You could lead. You could.

[Caroline]

Sorry to say.

[Brandi]

Yeah, it's just, you know, she's.

[Caroline]

She.

[Emily]

She got.

[Brandi]

She got up to the library door and she just didn't take that step in, which was sad.

[Caroline]

Yeah, Sad for that library. So Ashley is asked. Ashley is told he's got a stack of questions for her about how messy she is. And she's like, lazy, low.

[Emily]

Bon t. All right, well, bounty from man said Ashley, we usually love your messiness, but something felt different this year. You were mean and downright nasty at times.

[Fiona]

She's like, to him, can we elaborate?

[Brandi]

I'm like, did you not just hear angel pleading for you to stop making fun of her being a catfish? So Angel's like, hello to me, to.

[Emily]

Stacy, to me, to Wendy after filming went down.

[Brandi]

And we see footage of Ashley on stage doing one of her shows being.

[Fiona]

Like, zen when is in the pen. Lord have mercy.

[Brandi]

Ha ha. So Andy asked if she regrets saying.

[Emily]

That, and she goes, well, I mean.

[Fiona]

When I saw Wendy's mug shot and she was smiling and, like, you're literally laughing in the photo, it's like, not really.

[Emily]

I made a joke.

[Fiona]

Like, I felt like it was a joke, so I made a joke. I just didn't think it was, like, that real.

[Brandi]

Ashley, you just got up here and said your biggest fear in all of life is to go to jail. And then you see someone who is living out your greatest fear, and you're like, well, I thought it was just like, some little joke. What? No big deal.

[Caroline]

Yeah, she's an asshole. And Ashley, I agree with, with the question. Ashley has been a lot more sinister than usual. She's always got kind of a fun edge to her. And this season, you see a lot of the looks she's giving, and they're just not. She's mean. I agree. Like, she's veered over into the. Into the meaner category. It's less fun. And she's like, well, I've apologized for that.

[Giselle]

But, you know, when I saw her mug shot and she was smiling, I just thought, I mean, she's laughing, so, you know, it's not real. And I made a joke. I mean, Wendy, it felt like a joke. So for me to make a joke like that, you know, you've made jokes.

[Caroline]

About people, and she's like, not anyone that has been locked up. Even when Karen was. I was probably one of the only people that did not do that.

[Brandi]

Yeah, and Ashley, again, says, I didn't know the severity of your situation, which, again, just doesn't ring true from someone who has made a claim that going to jail is her biggest fear in life. And that. But somehow she doesn't understand the severity of the situation. So Wendy's like, well, I think I would believe that, except for the fact that I got additional information that says it wasn't necessarily that you saw my mug job. It was a hidden vendetta that you've always had against me. And that's why you said that.

[Caroline]

Okay, then elaborate. What are you talking about? Why were there no questions asked about that? She's like, I got additional information. From who?

[Brandi]

Say it.

[Diana]

Spill it.

[Giselle]

Well, it's not about a hidden vendetta. I mean, let's revisit when you first came into the group. You came with, like, this air of, like, looking down, like you were just better than everyone else in the room.

[Caroline]

And then we see Wendy's flashbacks.

[Diana]

I have four degrees. Four degrees. I'm not stupid. I have four degrees.

[Caroline]

So we come back and she says.

[Diana]

How do you view me?

[Caroline]

How you view me has nothing to do with me, but everything to do with you.

[Giselle]

Well, I don't vilify. You know, I don't vilify my accomplishments.

[Caroline]

Well, that's because you don't have any.

[Brandi]

So that was pretty great. Cause you don't have any.

[Fiona]

And she's like, bullshit. Bullshit, bitch. Bullshit.

[Brandi]

Okay, well, she's right. She does have accomplishments.

[Caroline]

But then Ashley comes back. Very well. Yeah, she comes back and she's like.

[Giselle]

Well, at least I have one Social Security number. That's an accomplishment.

[Emily]

And everyone's like, oh, wow.

[Brandi]

And that's where it says, to be continued. So, so funny. Such a good reunion episode. We'll see where this goes. It's gonna be a good reunion because we still have to dive in further with Wendy. We have Karen coming up and just all sorts of other silliness. I can't wait for them to talk about this vacation that they had. So looking forward to it. Thanks, everyone, for being here.
