Real Housewives and Real Problems: Loyalty or Leverage?
The episode begins with lingering tension as Mia claims Karen butt-dialed her and made comments questioning her loyalty to her husband Ray back in 2021. Karen dismisses the accusation and claims she doesn’t remember. Stacey supports Karen, saying she deserves a “trophy” for enduring constant scrutiny.

As the group celebrates Wendy's birthday with a heartfelt midnight toast, Mia and Jacqueline later discuss Mia’s complicated relationship with Gordon. Mia opens up about feeling pressured to support him financially, sparking a candid exchange about loyalty and dependence.

The drama escalates during a brunch when Mia brings up Kierna’s past relationship with a drug dealer, leading to a heated confrontation about everyone's past. Tensions reach a peak when Ashley asks Kierna about a visible scar, which Kierna finds offensive and stormily exits. Karen stirs the pot by questioning Jacqueline’s relationship with her "Parental Partner" and his criminal record, prompting a strong reaction from Jacqueline as she defends her loyalty.

Stacey then tells Karen about a conversation suggesting she needs rehab, setting up further conflict among the group as Karen feels betrayed by the suggestion.
