On last week’s show when Tamra exploded and kicked Alexis out of her party, all hell broke loose. While Heather and Gretchen were happy to see Alexis go, Vicki was torn between her alliance with Alexis and her renewed friendship with former BFF Tamra. Alexis screamed that she was being bullied again, but Lydia disagrees. In the aftermath, Gretchen headed to New York to support Slade as he dealt with the hardest challenge he’s ever faced. Lydia encouraged a reluctant Alexis to reach out to her enemies and make amends, while Vicki’s son-in-law dropped a bomb about her boyfriend Brooks.

Tamra’s newly-repaired relationship with Vicki goes sour when Vicki is a no-show at their new wine business. Meanwhile, Lydia celebrates her free-spirited mom’s new sobriety from marijuana. Vicki does her best to navigate a bitter rift between her family and her boyfriend, Brooks, and Gretchen breaks down in tears contemplating her complicated future with Slade.
