As the trip to Puerto Vallarta/Vida Tequila commercial shifts from land to sea, Bronwyn reaches a breaking point and drops a bombshell on the group. Meanwhile, Britani spreads rumors and nastiness about Meredith, Mary arrives after making sure her son was on a good path, and we see another beautiful dinner end in chaos and fighting. BONUS: Bronwyn and Todd present a united front on WWHL, where Bronwyn shares a different take on the "infidelity" situation from what was alluded to on this episode

As the ladies make their way to Mexico, we see Meredith gearing up to confront Angie, Bronwyn and Lisa navigating their tense frenemy situation, and Mary confiding in Angie about her son and that she'll be joining the group late to make sure he's okay. Once in Puerto Vallarta, Lisa's meticulous planning backfires when Bronwyn feels slighted by her room assignment - as Britani feels emboldened by hers. All things come to the surface at dinner, along with more haircare tips, and some beefs are squashed as others continue to go strong.

BONUS: Details on Bronwyn's injuries from a dog attack and how she dealt with it in light of two lawsuits being filed recently regarding their own dogs allegedly attacking delivery people.

After an acknowledgment of chaotic school requests, holiday tasks, and a story about orbs, we settle in for a nice recap. The ladies pick up on a "to be continued" tiff at dinner in Mission Beach between Dorit and Kyle as the rest of the group watches the back and forth like a tennis match - and cringes as conversation devolves into a tangent about John Mellencamp's daughter, courtesy of Garcelle. The battle seems to fizzle while out to sea, only to gear back up as the ladies prepare to take to the sky. Sutton attempts to focus on sisterhood, friendship, and being open with each other but her plans are misunderstood by Dorit who's been fielding critiques from all sides. Meanwhile, Kathy continues to give us comedic relief and outstanding floral arrangements, Kyle brushes up on her wacky faces amidst interpersonal conflict a la Amsterdam, and Boze and Jennifer Tilly observe and try to enjoy themselves despite it all.

Updates on the case as it stands with a disclaimer that Luigi should be viewed as a suspect, innocent until proven guilty, not definitively guilty until that is proven in court. Analyzing details of his online footprint and alleged evidence has provided more seemingly hidden messages that are reviewed before asking questions that arise when debating his connection. The topic that super cedes all others is the unity of the majority, the wave of their discontent that is calling out the abuse and misdeeds of privatized healthcare and insurance that has resulted in prioritization of money over health. As voices get louder, we're also witnessing a suppression of related content and an eagerness to make an example out of a woman who said specific words in anger after being denied a claim this week. Also, a look at civil unrest through a historical lens, morality policing, and why this next generation isn't as phased by violence as their elders107 may expect.

A full rundown of what we currently know about the alleged United Healthcare vigilante, including the details of his arrest and charges in both PA and NY, his education, upbringing, life, and events that may have served as the catalyst for his actions. After wading through potential easter eggs and hidden messages he may have planned, we'll review his social media footprint that paints a picture of a young man questioning ethics and morality while struggling with ongoing health issues and pain. Throughout, the intent is to be clear about facts vs. media spin and recognize the eagerness that news sources seem to have to plant seeds of partisan discontent in a moment when the majority has found themselves unified.

BONUS: fun facts about how much Americans spend on healthcare and a rant about the Governor of Pennsylvania using his press conference to chide and shame

After an update on new details about the United Healthcare vigilante, now known as The Adjuster, a recap of the last two episodes of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills begins. I catch up on E2 where viewers learned more cringeworthy information about PK, Kyle's issues with Dorit, Erika's ongoing fixation with money, and a framed picture Kyle can't seem to step to. Then, Kathy treats us to a beachside outing, filled with thoughtful touches, games, and fun elements - for Kyle to poop on. The culmination of the episode is Dorit once again standing up to Kyle and again refusing to accept blame for how she's been treated.

After a summary of this week's NYC United Healthcare vigilante and witnessing the anger our country's greedy insurance companies have sown, we get into recapping the latest two episodes of Salt Lake City. The ladies try "camping" for an afternoon, Mary and her son have a heart to heart that has us rooting for them, and Angie and Lisa find peace as more infighting kicks off. At Meredith's bat mitzvah, several feuds come to a head with Angie taking on almost everyone and coining the term "high bodycount hair".

The worst was truly saved for last as the final part of the Real Housewives of Orange County reunion focuses on Pick-Me personified, Alexis, and her fresh batch of talking points from Shannon's ex. The show begins with a teaser that important news comes as soon as the reunion wraps. Then Andy, the cast, and viewers all witness more illogical madness as a reminder of why Jesus Jugs making a cameo this season isn't something that should be repeated. We're shown more footage of the man Shannon bought shoes for and hear enough of his side for a lifetime. The news that drops turns out to be information a few ladies held onto throughout the reunion, but Shannon is eager to be understanding, forgive, and move-on. We all hope her ex does as well.

In what may be one of the most entertaining episodes of any Real Housewives franchise, we bear witness to several mic drop moments from women who have honed skills of verbal battle. Early on, we see our gruff Tater Todd, arms folded, and delivering a stern performance review of "did not meet expectations" to his direct report. Then, a fairytale presentation of Mary's Breakfast at Tiffany's event is littered with butlers, decor, and vitriol as the women address beefs old and new. Despite wearing thick winter garb, Heather comes in hot and aiming for Bronwyn, Angie and Meredith face off, Meredith and Whitney have a run in, everyone comes for Meredith's unique hairpiece choice, and Britani continues to look for love and attention in all the wrong places.
