Episode 1 Sneak Peek

In the preview of the opening episode, the cast comes together for a meeting, during which they ask Jassi to share about herself. She mentions living in Potomac for a few years, though her career as a flight attendant limited her time there.

Excitingly, Jassi reveals that she and her significant other, Darius Harris, have just purchased a home in Potomac and are thrilled about starting anew. Upon inquiring about Darius’s profession, she proudly shares that he is an NFL player for the Kansas City Chiefs.

Given that Taylor Swift is currently in a relationship with Travis Kelce, another player from the Chiefs, Wendy couldn’t help but ask Jassi if she had met the pop star. Jassi confirmed, much to Wendy’s excitement, who then eagerly sought more details about their encounter.

The conversation soon shifts to the group’s current whereabouts, particularly regarding Karen, who is noticeably absent. Stacey mentions that Karen had reached out to her, while Mia humorously points out that Karen’s call seemed to be made after having one too many, which Stacey corroborates by saying she was “tipsy.”However, Stacey concedes that this is merely speculation, as she isn’t certain about Karen’s condition during the call.
