How I missed these freaky women of Salt Lake City.
In a dramatic dinner on a Bermuda beach, Heather Gay confronted Monica with RECEIPTS!
And of course, TIMELINES!
Monica is, naturally, no longer a cast member.
Where does that leave our ladies this season?
I do believe Angie K cannot explain these things; I really do.
She calls it besos so that she can remind her girlfriends she loves them.
And with matching red purses, no less.
If you recall, Mary was visibly disgusted by Angie K. on a trip to Palm Springs last season.
When askedwhat changed during a confessional, Mary says, She gained my trust.
Beyond Mary and Angie K.s friendship, it seems like were getting a renewed, higher-energy version of Mary.
Last season, her appearances were inconsistent.
The only way people knew how to interact with her was to coddle her like an aging pet.
However, even in these first few moments, she just seems more dialed in.
Allegedly, this is a very big deal for Mormons he is like royalty.
I love it when you get to find out something about Mormon culture through this show.
This guys a nobody, but sure, its a big deal for you guys.
But before getting a proper introduction to Britani, we meet Bronwyn, a high fashion friend of Lisas.
Immediately, you know her entire vibe is going to be that she is extremely rich and loves fashion.
Instantly, she bonds with Mary over being rich and wearing couture.
Britani attempts to join their conversation but gets off to a bad start by complimenting Bronwyns costume.
Mary is instantly turned off because Britani has revealed herself as not that rich.
(Britani later talks awkwardly in the same conversation that she grew up poor.)
The others are Rihanna and a museum.
While this is all good to know, Bronwyn still has not shown any real personality.
Meredith, thus far, has been pretty quiet.
Her boobs hurt, but also she is still in pain from how things ended in Bermuda.
And her biggest beef right now?
That Whitney copies her business ideas.
Meredith does a jewelry line, Whitney then does one.
Now, Whitney is selling bath products, which Meredith believes is her thing.
It is an attack on me, she tells Heather, who clearly finds it all very funny.
Back at the party, we get an incredible aside from Lisa talking about Jacks mission to Colombia.
She then goes on to say, I feel like its teaching him a lot of things.
They have the coolest bookstores and barber shops.
What does that even mean?
He could be anywhere by that description.
Meredith confronts Whitney and, in her trademark slurred speech, asks her about the bath bombs.
It sort of concludes with Whitney telling Meredith that she actually has sold bath bombs before.
Well, thats that.
Oddly, Angie sees this as an opportunity to once again take up her gripes with Meredith.
This interaction, in particular, made me think about these women as real people.
What do apologies even mean to them?
Fundamentally, what do they see an apology as doing for their emotional well-being?
My personal belief is that it is about power rankings.
Meredith sees herself as arealbusinesswoman whose success and previous success are not tied to herHousewivesfame.
Salt Lake City is seemingly full of these spots.
Lisa is very much like,thats not very healed of you.
It is with this information the argument escalates into an explosion from Lisa.
Whitney finally has enough and says to Lisa, You wanna meet thehilledWhitney?
Fuck you, Lisa Barlow.
And with that, she storms off, with Angie K. following her.
And with that, we are off to a pretty good start to the season.
