On this episode of The Real Housewives Of Salt Lake City, Whitney is taking the girls to Milwaukee, but not everyone in the group is on great terms. This invite set off “8,000 red flags” for Meredith, however Seth suggest that Meredith treat Whitney “like high school algebra: pay no attention to” her. Bronwyn is less than thrilled with Lisa, who she thought was her friend, and reminds the ladies that she is not going to lay down and take it. In fact, Bronwyn reminds them all that they do their far share of sh*t talking, so the jig is up.
Everyone seems pretty hyped to be heading to Milwaukee in the winter. I mean, Angie had some custom Greek flag sunglasses made in honor of the Greek Freak, a forward for the Milwaukee Bucks and a fellow Greek, like her. She dishes some hot tea with her husband and shares that this 411 comes from her brow girl. You see, Britani’s boyfriend is sending flirtatious texts to said brow girl. This is a bit awkward, since it sounds like Britani is taking this “relationship” a little more seriously than he is. After a little deliberation, Angie decides it’s best to be a girls’ girl and let Britani know about this two-timing.
Bronwyn feels like Lisa left her high and dry after the ropes course. She doesn’t like how Lisa, her FRIEND for many years, did not stick up for her; therefore, Bronwyn feels a little uncomfortable about this trip. Alas, all of the ladies (minus Mary, who insisted on traveling alone) board the private jet and land in Wisconsin.
Mary meets the group at the hotel and shares her personal connection to Milwaukee. Her dad is from there and interestingly enough, he lived a few blocks away from Jeffrey Dahmer!
This hotel has a pretty sick set up for all nine of them. After picking their rooms, they sit down for a quick bite. Lisa discusses Jack’s health and she becomes emotional since she is so far away from him while he is on a mission in Colombia. Jack even refused Lisa’s assistance when she offered to go down there, since he wants to be able to figure it all out himself.
After a beat, Whitney changes the subject to the itinerary. The Bucks game is on the agenda, which makes Angie squeal with Greek delight. But before that, Whitney explains that Milwaukee is home to one of the largest bobble head museums. This is particularly funny since Mary referred to Whitney as a bobble head last season. Because the museum sounds like a snooze fest, TBH, Heather points out that there are casinos in Milwaukee, so the group will split up.
Before heading out, Angie checks in with Bronwyn, who is busy getting glammed…to go to a bobble head museum. Angie realizes that Bronwyn is seriously upset with Lisa, as she did not shut down any of the attacking after the ropes course. According to Bronwyn, Lisa and Heather talked sh*t to her, but then tried to out Bronwyn as a sh*t talker. She doesn’t like the double-standard, and she is on to Lisa’s ways.
The buzzing cousins, Heather and Whitney, sneak a drink and some words, particularly about Meredith. When it comes to Bronwyn, Heather can tell that she is on her list. According to Heather, the conversation Bronwyn had with Whitney was totally different from the one she had with her, so who is the real Bronwyn? Heather feels like Bronwyn is trying to play the ladies, and Heather doesn’t like Bronwyn’s manipulative behavior.
Heather, Meredith, Angie, Lisa, and Britani roll up to the casino. The Mormon Church would not approve of all this gambling, but Lisa explains that Mormon 2.0 allows this type of behavior, naturally.
Over at the bobble head museum, Mary, Whitney, Bronwyn, and Meili begin their scavenger hunt, figuring out the clues and finding the bobble head. Riveting.
While at the casino, Britani is busted for excessively checking her phone for her BF, Jared. Lisa takes her phone and reminds Britani that he is not her identity. Foreshadowing! In the meantime, Heather has a chance to talk to Meredith alone. She lets Meredith know that Whitney was trying to extend an olive branch to her by suggesting she bring some caviar on the trip. Meredith would have preferred an apology from Whitney, rather than supplying everyone on the trip some caviar.
Meredith muses if Whitney is going to launch a caviar brand next. LOL. Speaking of Whitney’s businesses, apparently Whitney is using designs from AliBaba and selling things for ten-twenty times the price. Whitney is even using the same stock photos! That’s sure not good for business. Meredith clarifies that she isn’t spreading rumors about Whitney- this is out there on social media. Meredith was tagged a hundred times about it, but wonders if it’s her place to bring this up to Whitney. Heather believes that Meredith has to let Whitney know, since this could be a potential crisis for her business.
The SLC crew arrives to the Bucks stadium and Angie is in her Greek glory, right down to a flag draped over her shoulders. They sit front and center, watching them warm up. They then are led up to a suite, where we learn that Mary doesn’t use public bathrooms, so instead she just inserts a supersized tampon. It works every time. Her words, not mine.
As Britani FaceTimes with Jared, Angie fills Bronwyn in on the brow girl situation. Bronwyn insists that Angie tell Britani about this. So, Angie divulges what she knows about the brow girl and Jared to Britani. This DMing has been as recent as two weeks ago, which upsets Britani so much that she excuses herself. Meredith follows her and recommends that Britani take some time for herself now.
Bronwyn and Lisa have a cool conversation, since the tension between them is so thick. Bronwyn is sick of Lisa talking sh*t and calling it a joke, whereas when Bronwyn talks sh*t, it’s an huge issue. So earlier, she let Meili know that Lisa was gossiping about Meili getting blacklisted from Nordstrom for all the returns. Ooph.
Meili walks over to confront Lisa about this situation, but Lisa tries to spin it as just a “snarky comment.” One might call it a JOKE. Bronwyn points out that Lisa does this all the time. Lisa is allowed to get “away with a little mess,” but the same cannot be said for Bronwyn. Bronwyn goes on to say she is nervous about the crack forming in her friendship with Lisa.
Lisa claims she didn’t know Bronwyn was upset over the rope course gang up and feels like she DID defend Bronwyn. Apparently, it wasn’t the way Bronwyn wanted Lisa to. Bronwyn wonders why Lisa didn’t try to end the build-up and why she egged it on further. When Heather walks over, she claims she didn’t mean to put Bronwyn on blast, but Bronwyn lets Heather know she needs to “come correct.” Bronwyn’s issue with Heather is that she tried to make it seem like the sh*t talking was very one sided, but according to some flashbacks provided by production, Lisa, Heather, AND Bronwyn all did their fair share of sh*t talking that infamous day in the car.
Bronwyn admits to be being shady, but Heather may be slightly displacing her mistrust onto Bronwyn, the newbie. Bronwyn is over the way Heather and Lisa make fun of Whitney for playing up her hilling journey when she wants to and calls Heather and Lisa “Whitney’s lying a*s friends.” Bronwyn refuses to be named the root of the problem, since they ALL talk about each other. Where’s the lie?
