- Previously, on "The Real Housewives
of Beverly Hills"...
- We're on this path of our friendship, and I like it.
Sutton and I are in a really good place now,
and we talked about, kind of, our issues from last year.
- What are you gonna do for your event?
What are you planning?
- Parisian in L.A.
- I mean, you like that theme, always.
- I'll never get away from widows and orphans,
even though it's not true.
[glass shattering]
- I thought, "This is it. I'm gonna die."
- It's terrifying.
- I've been putting out fires all day today, too.
- I've got this French designer that I'm bringing in,
and immigration is--
- What is wrong with you? - I was empathetic.
- No actually weren't, Sutton. - Yes, I was, Kyle.
- It's really inappropriate to tell someone
they feel wrong.
You guys went on a very strong campaign,
every single one of you, to police my feelings.
- Going back a year.
This is a very different situation.
- My feelings are irrelevant to them.
- No, not true.
- Stop! I'm done.
- Are you out of your ----ing mind?
- I'm leaving.
This is not a safe space for me.
[devious music]
- I don't need the spotlight.
I shine just fine.
- Hi, I'm karma,
and yes, I am a bitch.
- You can take all my things
and you won't have taken a thing that matters.
- The only thing better than having it all
is having even more.
- If you want a seat at my table,
you best mind your manners.
- They say talk is cheap,
but in Beverly Hills, it can cost you.
- I have nothing to hide and nothing to lose,
and that makes me dangerous.
- When you're the real deal,
you don't have to pretend.

[upbeat music]

- What's up? [crosstalk]
- Hi, Miguel. It's Kyle Umansky. How are you?
Good, thank you. Can we get four bloody marys
and two mimosas sent to the house?
Thank you so much. Bye. Five to ten minutes.
- I didn't sleep a wink last night.
- At all? Why didn't you call some--
like, knock on my door? - What am I gonna--
I'm gonna wake you up to tell you I'm--
- Yes!
- That is so selfish. I would never do that.
Every time I close my eyes, there's a lot of things
going on in my head-- anxieties and fears.
All I want is to be able to put it behind me,
where I can feel a little bit more
like myself, pre-home invasion.
- Sometime Dorit should talk to my mom.
- A gazillion percent.
- She didn't even know about her mother's--
- Until I was 18.
- I should not even be here.
You shouldn't even be here. - I know.
A few years before I was born,
my mom was attacked by a man that she worked with.
Had he killed anybody yet to that point?
- Not at that point. - He became a serial killer.
Dorit's trauma, it's on that same level of violation.
And Lois lived through it.
And she's had a beautiful life
after going through life-altering trauma.
She's a survivor, and that's Dorit.
- Did you talk to Sutton?
- Sutton's having breakfast with Crystal and Diana.
- Oh, good.
- So they're not coming here?
- They're not coming here 'cause Crystal--
- Yeah, I texted her last night,
and she was, like, "I wanna go home."
- My feelings are irrelevant to them.
- No, not true, Crystal. - Stop! I'm done.
- What are you doing? That is not true.
- It is! get real.
- There has to be something more to this,
to have such a strong reaction.
- What would be her trigger?
- Maybe she felt like we were caring more about
Dorit than we cared about how she felt last year.
Even though, like I said, they're apples and oranges.
- In my interpretation, Crystal came in to defend Sutton, said,
"Well, she's allowed to feel that way.
You guys didn't validate my feelings."
- Ahh - Right.
- That was what I was getting from it.
I don't know if that's right.
- We're, like, detectives right now.
[doorbell dings] Hold on, I'm doing--
- Where's our Bloody Marys? - Oh, yeah.
It's probably at the front door, sh--.
- What, they just drop 'em off? - Hold on.
I'll bring 'em to you. - Yeah.
- I want a club that just drops off bloody marys.
- The bloody mary fairy came.
- Okay, I'm gonna try Crystal. [line ringing]
- Pass that to Erika.
- Yum! - Is it good?
- Hello? - Hey, it's Garcelle.
- Hi, Garcelle.
- Hi. How are you?
- I'm really great.
- I'm always being facetious.
- Do you wanna talk? Do you wanna come by?
- Um, is everyone there?
- Everybody's, you know, worried and don't know
what triggered you.
- So they don't know what triggered me?
- No. I mean, I think what triggered--is it because
you've--you didn't feel validated, right?
- Can I, very rudely...
do this?
- Why is it rude?
- Well, because my fingers are wet.
- There's nothing rude about it.
Wipe your hands on it. Do whatever you need.
- Shh! I'm trying to listen.
- Shh. She's eavesdropping.
- I think it's your reaction. They didn't realize
you were holding all this stuff from last year.
Just come and clear the air, and we can all go home,
you know, feeling like you're okay.
I don't want Crystal leaving La Quinta
without us having a conversation.
I don't want another year to go by,
and we don't talk about this again.
- Okay. I'll stop by for ten minutes.
- Yay! Awesome. I'll see you soon.
- Okay. - Okay, bye
- Okay.
- I convinced her to come for ten minutes
just to talk it out, I said this is a good place.
- Oh, good. Good. - Honey, this great.
- Better place to talk here than at Sutton's party.
- No, Bambi. We're not giving you the ball.
- I can't believe it was a year ago we were all here.
- Honey, what a year?
- One year ago staying here... - My life was such a shamble.
- On this sofa. - I hate that sofa.
- Erika, I feel like, you're, like, night and day.
- I feel night and day. - Right?
- When I was here a year ago, it was soul crushing.
And I'm so glad that we've moved past all our sh--.
- Well, time heals. It does. Time heals.
- I'd also like to thank you all for accepting me
for the wild animal that I was.
So let me tell the ----ing story.
This small town, I'm so worried about
my mother----in' reputation, you shut up.
- Don't talk to me like that.
- Or what? - Seriously.
- Or what?
- I was so backed into a ----ing corner every day.
And when you go through something like this,
it really is all encompassing.
It's every part of your life. It's where you live,
it's your marriage, it's your finances,
and, you know, trying to protect yourself.
And then, you finally get over the bridge a little bit,
and you go-- [exhales]
You can at least catch your breath.
You know, I'm far from done,
but I can at least catch my breath now.
12 months now, I have been dragged through the mud
for something that I didn't do, never happened.
- I think one of the reasons though, is that
you didn't show any compassion.
You didn't show, like, "Oh, my God,
I hope it didn't really happen."
- But hold on. I really hoped it didn't, but I...
- I know, but you didn't say that.
- Yeah, but I can't.
- Why can't you say that? - No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Because when you're in a legal situation like that,
every word counts.
We're not even sure that there were people that weren't paid.
- You're saying that we don't know for a fact
that these people weren't paid, this victims?
- That's right. That's exactly right.
- You mean that there's a chance
that they could be lying? - There's a chance.
- No way! - Yeah, way.
- Coming up...
- When you and Sutton had your thing, I felt like,
no matter what she said,
you were going to say, "Are you that girl?"
- I have been dragged through the mud
for something that I didn't do, never happened.
We're not even sure that there were people that weren't paid.
- No way! - Yeah, way.
- These victims are regular people.
Why would they be coming after Tom?
Why would all these lawsuits come about if they were paid?
They would just go live their lives.
- We still don't have all the facts,
that's what I keep saying. This isn't wrapped up.
It doesn't matter what someone claims.
- It also snows in Pasadena.
- So you're saying that we don't know for a fact
that these people weren't paid, these victims?
- That's right. Exactly right.
- You mean that there's a chance they could be lying?
- There's a chance.
- You can allege anything in a lawsuit, Garcelle.
- And you could sue for anything.
- There was a period when I walked past the tabloids.
I saw my face multiple times and I thought,
"These bad stories are sticking."
Why? Because they want them to be true.
Most of people who have no inkling of the truth,
they don't want to know the truth.
All they want is for Erika to fail,
and that is not happening, ever.
And I don't care who likes me or who doesn't.
I can't admit to something that I don't know happened.
The best way I can serve those
who have been rightfully wronged
is to roll up my sleeves and comply,
which is what I've done.
- Crystal's here. Crystal's here
- Oh, hi. - Hi, Crystal.
- There she is. - Hi, guys.
- The lady of the hour. Hey, Crystal.
- I am tipsy! I can say it! [laughs]
- I'm lit.
- I think they're still having brunch there.
And then they head back.
[upbeat music]
* *
- Hey. both: Hi.
- You're so fancy. I'm like-- look, I look like I--
- You look smoking, see. - Oh, my gosh.
You want something to eat? - Wow, this is really--
how many people are you expecting?
- I got all these containers to go.
- I can have, like, a little bagel, maybe.
- I had some bacon.
I keep eating bacon. I haven't eaten meat in so long,
but there's something about bacon that I cannot resist.
And pigs are really smart and sweet, like me.
- A bacon-eating vegetarian is not a thing.
Doesn't exist.
- So, last night--
- What happened? - Oh, no.
- I was, like, "Wait, what? This is Crystal, Dorit now.
It's not the-- - What just happened?
I know. And then I was like,
"Why are you crying?"
Because it sort of came from nowhere in the corner.
- Yeah. Everybody has different triggers.
- What triggers you?
- Like, somebody just makes fun of my accent.
Like, that goes back to people laughing at me.
- It's really low. It's low. - Yeah.
And then when they say, like, stupid stuff about my country.
And I go, like, "Well, can you point it in a map?"
Like, who's stupid here? The thing is I'm a Leo.
I can handle confrontation, I really can.
- Yeah, I don't mind confrontation.
I don't like screaming.
- I grew up in Bosnia.
Unless you shout, nobody hears you.
I used to be so aggressive, like, so aggressive.
And was I scared, really scared.
- Because of where you came from.
- Yeah, 'cause you just-- and then, I've realized
what you're doing.
I give everybody one chance.
Coming from somebody that grew up in Sarajevo ghetto,
I used to be very angry with the world, very explosive.
I've tried to develop empathy.
But at the same time, you don't get multiple chances with me
because first time, shame on you.
Second time, shame on me.
I don't like that.
- With these women,
you are gonna have to give them more than one chance.
- [laughs] So I just give them--
- I think that maybe several chances.
- Okay, how many? I need to write that down.
- Because we just mess up sometimes.
[laughter]
- Crystal, let's talk about how you felt,
and how you're feeling.
- I feel like I'm in some weird, like, therapy commune.
- None of us are licensed.
- Okay, good. - We wanna understand.
- We don't want you to feel like you weren't
heard last night.
- Yeah. I wanna be really clear.
I wanna, get through this conversation today,
and I don't wanna talk about it again.
So what triggered me was I actually don't--
[dramatic music]
- Take your time, my darling.
- What was upsetting me last night was, you know,
when I was struggling last year with Sutton
and I was telling you guys how I felt,
I was--I felt like there was a massive campaign
to try and negate how I was feeling.
- To me, violation of privacy has to be intentional.
- Exactly. That's the truth.
- Violation's a little strong. - It is not.
- Violation is a big word.
- It's not easy just to pour my heart out to you guys
when all I'm being told
is a word I'm using was too strong.
The focus shifted to something that was really not the focus.
So what triggered me was that I've been holding on to that.
- You said, "I don't feel safe last night."
- Yeah. - What does that mean?
- In my emotions in this group.
That's how I felt last year. That's why I shut down a lot.
- This doesn't look like a safe space for you?
- I'm trying.
You know, I'm trying
- Saying something like,
"I don't feel like I'm in a safe space,"
just because a group of adult women don't agree with you.
Sweetheart, this is a vacation
compared to what I went through.
- Because of everyone's reaction, I chose to--
- My God, this dog is a ----ing--
This dog is vicious!
- Go ahead. Crystal.
- Relentless. - I am so sorry.
- It's okay. - He's relentless.
- I'm sorry if I made you feel like that, not heard.
I really--I always think I'm a fixer,
and try to patch things up. - I appreciate that.
- A fixer and a stirrer?
- No, I actually try to fix things.
- Half and half.
- Trust me, I actually do try to fix things.
- This is my idea of Kyle fixing.
Need I say more?
- Okay, I'm gonna ask you a favor.
Can you just not wait one year and hold something in
that's bothering you that much?
- For sure. Yeah, yeah. - Okay. I like that.
- Can I just say, if I'm going to be 100% honest.
I've been holding on to this.
And I know what I'm about to say maybe explosive.
- Uh-oh. - Oh, God.
- I feel that when you and Sutton had your thing.
- Are you one of those people that you don't see color?
Tell me you're that girl, "I don't see color."
- I felt like no matter what she said,
she could've said the sky is blue.
You were going to say, "Are you that girl?"
'Cause I just felt like it was a setup.
- Now that you know me, do you still think that?
- I don't know. - Oh, okay.
- I'm totally blindsided by Garcelle's comment.
You think based on my entire personality
that you've known for the last two years,
that that's something I would do?
It's so out of line, and so out of my character.
You were there. - No, I wasn't.
- You were there.
There was a lot more said prior to that
that was very dark. - Oh, okay.
* *
- Oh, wow. - See? And do you know--
I wish we would've known that.
- If that's your friend that you're standing up for,
why would you then just say that
"She said some other things that are really dark
and really bad."
I would be pissed if I were Sutton.
- It was the very first time I had spoken to Sutton.
- In Tahoe in, the bar. - You were there.
- I know, but don't remember that part.
- You probably blocked it out of your head. You were drunk.
- I do remember that conversation with Sutton.
She's not here to explain, and now we're saying
she's done something dark, and I wasn't--I don't--
- Okay, we're not going there. [phone ringing]
- Hi, honey. - We're not gonna bring it up.
I'm gonna tell you that right now.
- Oh, my God. Your hair looks crazy.
- Can I ask, now that we brought it up, what is it?
Can I just ask?
- No. - No, you're not gonna say it?
- Nope. No.
- When you say, "I don't wanna say what it is,"
you allow the person that you just told it to
to fill in the blanks
with the worst possible sh-- ever.
If it's that bad, then don't ----in' bringing it up at all.
- I'm so excited for you.
- I love you too, honey. Bye.
Wait till I tell the girls.
My son, Oliver. - Everything okay?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, everything's great.
He just got a great job working for somebody you know.
- Who? - PK?
- Lisa Vanderpump.
- What? [laughter]
- I don't know her, but--
- Garcelle, the best way home, I'll send your stuff,
just walk through there.
Up the mountain.
- I'ma up my Lexapro.
- On that note, let's go home.
- Los Angeles, where we belong.
- Coming up...
- There was a man taking pictures over my fence.
- It just made me think that someone's, like...
[upbeat music]
* *
- Baby, can you get me a Diet Coke, honey?
- Honey, how many Diet Cokes have you had today?
- I have had two.
- Think maybe you could switch, like, one Diet Coke, one water?
- I don't like water as much as Diet Coke.
- Well--
- But yeah, we can do that.
I told you, my new view on life with you is two words.
- What's that? - Yes, darling.
- PK has diabetes,
yet he refuses to change his lifestyle.
It's just stress on top of stress,
given what I'm going through.
You've been very, very, very supportive, my love.
You really have. - Well, I hope so, baby.
I do worry about what you're leaving inside.
- I mean, PK, I'm holding it together.
But I know when I leave this house,
there's something inside of me. There's an anxiety.
It's like my reactions are not the way they used to be.
Right now, my new normal is palpitating anxiety
and navigating triggers.
My kids come in my room every night. They always have.
Now, that sound of my bedroom door opening.
[gasping] I almost can't catch my breath.
I don't know what I'm gonna feel at any given moment.
I wanna process this, and I wanna get to a place
where I can put it behind. I wanna heal, PK,
because I know that it's deep inside of me.
- I get it. I get it.
Why don't you take a few days off,
ring a few of the ladies, and go and have some fun?
Punta Mita, that's where you go.
Go there. It's so close by flying.
- It's not far. - Just go.
Go and have a few days.
- What if I feel anxious, babe? - Then you'll come home.
- I will say, just even you mentioning it,
there's something that feels like--
[inhales] I don't know, it feels like--
that would feel nice.
- It's good for you, my love. And then we just have to agree
what shows I can watch on my own.
- Nothing.
- No, I've got to be able to watch some shows.
- Every show that you and I watch together,
you're not allowed to watch without me.
- So only new shows? I wanna watch that "Squid Game," honey.
- Why don't you watch, like,
things that you know I won't like?
- Okay, agreed. Yes, darling.
- Oh, are you the best husband in the world?
- Operation Punta Mita. - Okay. I need to get ready
[upbeat music]
* *
- Let's hope everything's good.
I'm gonna steal some earrings to wear tonight.
- Hi! - Oh, my gosh!
This is so cute on you.
- I'm so excited. - Oh, uh-oh.
There's the man of the hour.
Bon soir!
Aww. - Welcome, and your stuff?
- Well, thank you. Thank you. I have to get dressed.
- It's ready inside.
- Is it ready? Okay, let's go.
Alexis Mabille is a Paris darling of couture.
And the borders are finally open,
so he can come into the country.
I've got this French designer that I'm bringing in.
Immigration is just--
- That doesn't seem like a fire after what--
- I mean, I wasn't held at gunpoint. I'm sorry.
So what other way to celebrate finally
than to have a Parisian party?
And how fun to have couture come to L.A.?
- Ooh, you're so pretty. - Thank you.
Isn't this dress is so pretty? I love it.
Okay. It is freezing in here.
I mean, honestly, it's real cold.
- Can we turn it of for a second?
- Don't turn it off. Don't you turn it up.
- Yeah.
- When you do a party like this,
there's a big list of things to do.
One, there's the guest list.
Did we put Paul on the list 'cause I think he's coming?
- Yes.
- The food, the bar. This needs more vodka.
It's too much juice. We're very picky.
For this one, we had to get the mannequins.
* *
Oh, watch. Please, watch.
I just get very nervous. I get nervous.
Y'all gotta watch all these clothes, now.
Y'all don't wanna mess these clothes up.
[upbeat music]
* *
- Hi, guys. Are you ready to see everyone again?
- Yeah.
- And you've never been to Sutton's store before, right?
- I've been working with Diana for 13 years, I'd say.
- Almost 15.
- I don't think she's ever been to a store.
- 'Cause of my allergies. - She's allergic to dust.
- Really, I do. I am.
- And she thinks that there's too much dust in the stores.
- I think it's the chemicals, too.
And my eyes start popping out.
And I really start swelling up, but I was like...
- No, no, it's real.
- I shop at home.
Since most designers know my style, my taste, my size,
they put aside things for me.
[laughs] It is.
It's not a joke.
[upbeat music]
* *
- I spoke to Rinna, and I called her to check in.
She's obviously in shock. I got this message from Lisa.
"Ladies, I was just told Lois had a stroke,
"so I'm going up to Medford.
"I don't know any more as of now,
but please keep her in your prayers."
She had a very frank conversation with the doctor.
And basically, it said,
right now it's just about making her comfortable.
- We're at the place right now,
and, you know, we're gonna have to put her in hospice.
She has a very strong directive
that we are not gonna to resuscitate her.
We are not to give her a feeding tube.
- I went through this with my mom.
She also couldn't talk at the end,
but she understood everything.
But my mom had us take her out of hospice and bring her home.
She didn't want to be in hospice,
and she didn't want to pass away in hospice.
She wanted to be home with us.
- And, like, also with a nurse
that could keep her comfortable.
- No. Kim and I were doing it.
I know, it was not easy.
One time, Kim and I were trying to bathe my mom,
and we were, like, almost dropping her.
And my mom, she wasn't communicating.
But all of us were--three of us were laughing.
And I was like, "Kim! Kim!"
And then, my mom was like-- [laughs]
As hard as it is, Rinna is exactly where she needs to be.
And it's so sad, but at the same time, you know,
I wouldn't have missed being there for my mom's
last breath for anything.
[phone chimes] What is this?
Is the paparazzi taking photos over my gate?
- Who was taking pictures over your gate?
- There was a man taking pictures over my fence.
- Okay, that's really triggering.
- I know. I'm sorry.
I was--it was just paparazzi and nothing else.
- Coming up...
- What she alluded to you made me feel like
if you had said something crazy.
[upbeat music]
* *
- What is happening tonight?
- I've got my friend, Alexis Mabille.
He just came in from Paris, France.
He has brought in his spring, summer 2022 collection.
We thought we'd celebrate
and do a little Paris night tonight.
- Hello.
[laughs] Finally reunited.
- All right. I'm gonna go that side.
- I'm following you.
- Who's coming tonight, everybody?
- I don't know. - All the girls?
- I don't know. Crystal's coming, I know that.
- Great.
- Who are you really asking me about?
- No one. I'm just asking.
- I swear to God,
I just figured out this thermostat a year later.
- Well, it is a little tricky. It's not like mine at home.
- It was 62 in this house the other morning,
and I was in sweats, sleeping under a comforter with a dog.
- How was your day? - It was good.
I had a nice Muay Thai lesson this morning for two hours.
You know, Sutton's having her store opening.
Well, not store opening, but she's having a designer
come in from Paris. - Got it.
- And I'm not going.
You know, the invitation was sent in a group.
And after everybody was going around kissing each other's ass
and apologizing for everything, and I said,
"Where's my apology?"
And she's like, "I'm gonna giving you one."
And I just, you know, I think I, like,
stood up and said, "(BLEEP) you."
- Where's my apology? - You're not getting one.
- Why not? - Because I don't like you.
- Oh, good. This is a mutual thing.
Yeah, never.
Go (BLEEP) yourself.
Can't make it. I have a date with a vibrator.
Listen, I gotta be honest.
I am so glad I am not getting dressed tonight.
I don't have to put on anything.
I don't have to slap on a fake smile
and pretend to be nice.
You know what? No.
- Love it. - Love it.
* *
- Oh, another person who's early.
Hi. [speaking French] How are you?
- You look stunning. - Hi.
- Oh, my gosh. You look so pretty.
- Thanks, you too.
- Let me see you. Oh, leather!
- Sexy. - In honor of you.
- I know.
- You're upset because you're jealous.
- Jealous of what? Your ugly leather pants?
- No, no, no, no, no. - No.
I've gotta tell y'all.
Besides being a fashion designer,
his taste, his apartment is so beautiful.
- If I wouldn't be, like, designer,
I would be, like, interior designer.
- Kind of works, though, like-- - In four or five years, now--
- A lot of, like, you know,
my home in London was designed by Giorgio Armani.
- Yeah. - Beautiful.
Like, Ralph Lauren-- - It makes sense.
- A lot. My previous house in London was done by Fendi.
- Ready to go? - Ugh, not really.
Why am I having, like, terrible anxiety?
- Do I look okay?
- Maybe don't leave my side for a minute.
- I know. - If my boob falls out, enjoy.
- I'll let you know.
- If it falls out, just enjoy. - Oh, God. Oh, honey.
Excuse me, why is there press here?
- I don't know.
- No, that's not cool.
I can't really talk about what I went through
with anyone other than my close friends and family.
How can a friend not think about that,
not give me a heads up?
Are you that self-absorbed?
- Hello, beauty. - How pretty you look.
- Oh, thank you. Muah.
- What's going on, with everything that went down
with breaking and entering?
- Well, she is unbelievably strong.
You know, and the aftermath has not been so easy.
- You have to meet Alexis. - Hi. How are you?
both: Nice to meet you.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.
- He's out of Europe, finally. - Yeah.
- Hello! both: Hello!
- Is this the guy who was held at the border, infamous one?
- Yes. We're just talking about it.
- Do you know of a story of the drama surrounding him?
- Hello! - How are you?
both: Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you, too.
- This is Kyle. Dorit has her own line she does.
That she designs.
- Yep. - And so do I, by the way.
[laughter]
You actually may have some pieces in here.
Yeah, but this one's really batting a thousand lately.
* *
- This is Alexis.
- This is a sexy nun. - Lacey, basic, yeah.
- That's amazing.
- This is spring-summer. - Great, great.
- I never wear anything on my neck.
- I just think you're showing too much.
- I know. Stop staring, okay? [laughter]
- Let me ask you a question.
Is everything okay with, like, you and Crystal?
- Yeah. - I'm asking because we had
a very awkward conversation at my house.
- There was a lot more said that was very dark.
- Crystal says something.
What you said was so dark, she couldn't say.
And I said, "That didn't happen."
I still have no idea what Crystal is talking about
that Sutton said that was so dark.
Either Crystal is confused or I'm confused,
and my money's on Crystal.
- I know that. That's what I was saying.
- I don't know why we're going backwards.
I don't wanna relive that. I don't wanna rehash that.
When you go through something, like Crystal and I did,
and you grow out of it and you get better,
then let that tree stand tall.
Don't try to cut the tree down.
I'm remaining calm because I know
that I didn't say anything
that I should be ashamed of
or anything dark.
We're good. - We're good.
- Oh! - That's okay.
We're talking about the conversation in La Quinta.
- Real quick. I just feel like what she alluded to made me
feel like it was something that would change our dynamic,
if you had said something crazy.
[dramatic music]
Watch your back with your new friend.
That's all I'm saying.
* *
- Coming up...
- Just say what she said.
- She said something problematic.
- Defend yourself without saying something
that you're not prepared to say.
- What Crystal alluded to made me feel like
it was something that would change our dynamic,
if you had said something crazy.
Watch your back with your new friend.
That's all I'm saying.
Friendship is supposed to be about trust.
And the minute Crystal felt cornered,
she threw Sutton under the bus.
So I don't know how this friendship is gonna work.
- I don't want to go backwards.
- Even if there was something
that said that could be not great for you?
- Let's just move forward and work together, you know,
because that's sisterhood.
- I'm confused. The Sutton I knew a year ago
was so sensitive and emotional about everything.
- You kicked me!
- No, no, no, I kicked you
because I didn't wanna ruin the joke.
Dude, you're so uptight. Relax.
- This helps me
because I feel so uncomfortable.
He's gonna ruin my life, and then say--
- That's not gonna happen. - That's not gonna happen.
It's not gonna happen.
- I want all of us to be positive.
- I don't know if Sutton took some happy pills tonight
because there is nothing here,
zero emotion, completely numb.
- Can y'all stop talking about me behind my back?
- I would love that.
- And your dress is on backwards.
Your dress is on backwards.
- This is couture.
[upbeat music]
- I need to sit down soon.
- Let's go find you a sit, darling.
- Clearly this is outrageous. - Isn't it pretty?
- Yes. - And this is ready to wear.
- I haven't worn heels in two years.
- Oh, honey.
- I know. - [laughs]
- Oh, my God. My bra is falling off.
- Holy sh--.
Sutton obviously doesn't wanna go back there.
- I get that. But you can't just say it was so awful.
And by putting that out there and leaving it open
for people to guess and assume,
people are gonna assume the worst.
- Hi. - Hey.
- What's going on?
- Well, we're actually talking about La Quinta
and that conversation that happened.
- At the house? - Yeah.
- Okay. - Here's what I wanna say.
In that conversation, Garcelle had feelings.
And instead of just defending yourself,
you all of a sudden brought up Sutton,
that she said something so dark and horrible.
I was there, and she didn't say anything
"Oh, my God," horrific. - Here's the thing.
You don't remember it, and that's fine.
- Quit telling me that, Crystal.
I don't like that. I do remember.
[dramatic music]
- It probably doesn't affect you.
In fact, I'm sure it doesn't affect you the way
it would affect me or probably Garcelle.
- So you gotta tell me what she said.
- No. - Because right now,
in my mind, I'm thinking the worst.
Here we go again with Crystal's word choice.
Dark is a very dangerous word because it could be something
that would make me question our friendship,
and where Sutton stands when it comes to race.
- Okay, I'm gonna be really clear.
If we continue this conversation,
I don't want to be told the word dark is too much,
and then we're gonna focus on a word.
- Okay. Well, then don't say dark.
Just say what she said.
- She said something problematic.
It's obviously something that was forgivable.
- Is it forgivable?
- But then why bring up at La Quinta, though?
- Right, if it's forgivable. - Because the question
you asked me is very damaging.
Garcelle accusing me of setting up Sutton
is a massive accusation.
If someone's accused of murder, would a simple,
"No, I didn't," suffice? Likely not.
- Can I come? - I feel--
- Please. Please come.
- You're either going to say, "No, I didn't,"
or, "No, I didn't it, and here's my alibi.
To me, that's all I had.
Whatever-- - Well, I'm sorry.
I'm interrupting your conversation.
- No, it's okay. It's okay.
- No, it involves you.
- Oh, great. - And you should be here.
- Well, because normally, I'm not around when it happens.
- Obviously.
- When Crystal brought up her feelings,
we were all talking, and I said to her,
"If I can be completely honest,
I felt like you were setting Sutton up."
And so she said-- - And I said, "The conversation
was not prefaced that way."
- But then you said it was very dark.
- Listen, we've already done that night.
- We've done this. - I've apologized.
And I actually have learned a lot, and I've changed a lot.
And I don't know what was said exactly.
I just want-- and I truly mean this,
I cannot take it
unless we just go forward.
I can't.
- Well, that sounds nice on paper.
- I think Sutton is so afraid
that she said something that she doesn't remember,
that she just wants this topic dropped.
But I was there.
I heard everything.
That's not what happened.
- Okay, can I just say something?
My take on it was, you, in defending yourself,
opened up a can of worms. - Yes.
- But defend yourself without saying
something that you're not prepared to say.
- It would've never been enough, Dorit.
- But it's still not enough
because you're not prepared to share.
- Well, then, that's enough for me.
- Crystal knows what she's doing.
You're creating the worst-case scenario.
Then, to add insult to injury,
you are refusing to say with that is.
That's playing dirty. It's low.
- The thing is the can of worms that she opened,
they are expired, they're dead.
- Who's dead? The worms?
- The worms are dead, Diana,
- And you see why it's hard to follow?
Suddenly, all I hear...
- That's hilarious.
- See? It's hard.
- I'm gonna be clear about this.
I get a question, I have to answer and defend myself.
That's it.
- Okay. So why did you use the word dark, then?
Why didn't you just say--
- Oh, we talked about this, Garcelle.
Do not keep telling me what words to use.
How is dark a strong word?
It's one syllable, four letters.
It's only one vowel.
I mean, that's a pretty simple word to me.
What do you need?
- I'm not looking for anything.
You are the one that planted the seed.
But now, you two are great. So that's fantastic.
But what about everybody else that you leave in the rubble?
- I never wanted to bring this up ever,
because she and I resolved it.
And it's resolved.
- Here goes Crystal again with a new word,
but it's not resolved at all.
- If someone's gonna question my integrity,
that's where I'm gonna stop.
'Cause I know where I stand, period, at all times.
- Okay.
[dramatic music]
- Coming up...
- I want you to think of being on the ground
with a gun to your head.
[upbeat music]
* *
- [indistinct] I've got my EMDR session today.
- It's gonna bring up a lot,
but you're gonna have to work through that anyway.
It's really gonna help you.
- It's definitely something
that's very different inside of me.
- You know, I was talking to George last night,
and he made a really valuable point.
And he said, "You know what?
Those robbers, they've taken your belongings.
They've invaded and violated your home.
Don't let them take your business.
Don't let them take your life, and get on with it."
- The robbers took a lot of material things
that I don't care about, but they took so much more.
They've taken away my ability to feel safe, to feel whole.
- Okay. - Thank you, my love.
- All right, shall I leave you to it? Where is she?
- Yes, she's coming any second. Honey, can you--
- I'll take it. - Do you mind taking
your dirty breakfast plate? Love you, baby.
- No, I love you. Good luck.
- Knowing I have PK, someone that is supportive,
that's strong, that's capable, it means a lot.
- I'm not going anywhere. - Promise?
- Swear. - Good.
[door opens]
- Hey, Val. - How are you?
- Good. How are you?
- I'm good. Good to see you.
- I've set the mood.
- We're all set up? - I know.
- Oh, my gosh, I love all this. - All right?
- I'm gonna just get my little setup going here.
- While you're doing that,
I'm just gonna to tell you that...
- Please, please.
- So I went to my friend's store last night,
and it jarred me in a way.
And I was like, "I don't know if I could do this."
And then I was telling myself, you know, like,
"Dorit, you've done this before. It's okay."
But it really was kind of affecting me.
EMDR came recommended to me.
It is a type of therapy that is very good for trauma victims.
- From what you've told me,
your home has become your cocoon, right?
- Yes.
- When you're outside of this zone that is safe,
which is your home,
you're gonna start feeling activated.
That's a totally normal response.
- Yeah.
What it's supposed to do is help reprogram the brain
so that you can think of that traumatizing moment,
and associate it with feelings that bring you peace and joy.
- So I'm gonna hand these to you.
You have these pulsars in your hands,
and they vibrate in intense frequencies.
And when that's happening, we're stimulating sort of
rapid right brain, left brain, right brain,
left brain activity,
similar to what we experience when we're sleeping.
We're reprocessing all of the events that happen in the day.
When a traumatic event has happened
in the last three months, we separate it by frames
'cause that's the way that the memory is stored early on.
I want you to think of the frame of being on the ground
with a gun to your head, and the words, "I'm not safe."
Notice the emotions that come up right now in your body.
Where do you feel them in your body?
- My chest.
- Yes. Allow your mind to go where it needs to go.
- I went from, "I'm not safe," to thinking about my kids.
- Go with that please, thinking about your kids.
Just notice that and go with it.
- [crying]
- Just let whatever comes up come up.
And take a breath.
- Oh, God forbid anything ever happens to them.
I can't shake this feeling.
- Yes. Tell me the feeling.
- Is just this--
So scared, so worried, so afraid, so sad, so--
- Know that you're safe right here, right now.
- When I close my eyes, I can see the headline,
"Mother Found Dead in Her Bedroom,
and the Kids Shot Dead in Their Bed."
Oh, my God!
Oh, my God, that thought is gonna haunt me
for the rest of my life.
- Take a moment. Take a breath.
- It's just right now it feels like--
I feel very far from where I need to be.
I feel like I have a lot of work to do.
- Next time, on "The Real Housewives
of Beverly Hills"...
I felt like you threw Sutton under the bus.
- We were talking about race and all that.
- What did you say?
- We're going to Mexico. - Oh!
- We're taking a private jet, courtesy of Diana.
- Count me in! - First class...
all: All the way! [laughter]
- It's the only way to fly.
* *
- Welcome, guys! - Arriba, arriba!
- I'll bet you $5 Dorit is speaking Spanish in her car.
- Oh, my gosh.
- [speaking Italian] L'aria condizionata.
- I said nothing wrong.
- I need you to stop denying my experience.
- You are dangling a really dangerous carrot.
- It's not ----ing fair. - I didn't bring it up.
- Yes, you did!
