In last week’s premiere, new alliances formed as Angie and Mary teamed up.

Meredith was also upset with Whitney for allegedly stealing her bath bomb idea and sought an apology at Lisa’s Valentine’s Day-themed Besos party.

This week on The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, the women sought to move past the drama when Heather arranged an outdoor excursion to clear the air. However, tensions quickly escalated as Mary and newcomer Britani clashed regarding their struggles in relationships, while Meredith decided to reaffirm her commitment to Judaism.

Recap of Season 5, Episode 2: What Transpired?

This episode, titled Walking A Tightrope, featured Lisa and Bronwyn reflecting on the fallout from last week’s party. Bronwyn brought up how Britani was too forward with her and Mary. During their talk, Angie called Lisa, wanting to discuss her feelings privately.

Angie confided in her husband about feeling troubled for not siding with Whitney and expressed her desire to confront Lisa. Meanwhile, Mary was seen discussing her frustrations with her “sheltered”son. Bronwyn and Lisa picked up Heather and stopped at a drive-thru to discuss the escalating tensions involving Whitney and Angie.

In a confessional, Heather voiced her concern over Bronwyn’s strong opinions about Whitney, despite their limited acquaintance. She chose to distance herself from the “negative energy,”yet remained silent during the car conversation.

In another scene from The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, Meredith and her husband, Seth, attended a cooking class as he prepared to move back to Ohio for work. They crafted a Middle-Eastern dish called shakshuka, which sparked emotions related to anti-Semitism and prompted Meredith to plan a Bat Mitzvah.

Later, Lisa met with Angie for lunch, during which Angie revealed that she had spoken to Whitney and believed Lisa deserved an apology. Despite voicing her support for Lisa, Angie admitted that Lisa can be challenging to deal with during conflicts due to her outbursts. They parted without resolving their differences but planned to discuss it further.

“If everybody wants to think I’m a f*cking villain and a b*tch and self-centered, I don’t even care anymore. I’m gonna go, but I love you and hopefully, we can continue the conversation,”Lisa stated.

Bronwyn shared a home tour, reminiscing about meeting her husband, Todd, a decade ago, who gained wealth as the CEO of PalmPilot. She discussed the conflict between Lisa and Angie with a hope for reconciliation.

In another storyline, Whitney and Heather visited a crystal store to address their past traumas. During their visit, Heather expressed her hope that Whitney wouldn’t alienate those around her. Whitney also mentioned her desire to visit Trixie Mattel’s new bar in Milwaukee with Angie, Heather, and Bronwyn, which sparked frustration in Heather.

All the housewives gathered for Heather’s outdoor activity, aiming to strengthen their bond and forget about the recent drama. Afterward, they enjoyed tacos, during which Britani raised a toast to her relationship with her boyfriend, Jared. The other ladies disagreed, recalling that Jared referred to Britani as his “best friend.”

A heated exchange ensued between Britani and Mary after Mary voiced her disinterest in Britani’s life and accused her of rudeness during the Besos party. Britani defended herself by claiming she was kind, but Mary countered that her family issues contradicted that claim.

“If you’re so kind, why can’t you make mends with your children?”Mary retorted.

Bronwyn intervened to advise Britani against sharing personal details, which led Heather to remind everyone about Bronwyn’s earlier negative remarks about Whitney.
