RHONY S5, E7: Battle Royale

Send us Fan MailHost Meredith recaps The Real Housewives of New York City Season 5, Episode 7, “Good Trip, Bad Fall,” with four women in London and Ramona and Aviva staying in NYC. In London, Sonja’s bidet face-icing and a croquet outing highlight growing tension as Carole becomes irritated by Luann’s constant one-upping; Heather tries to diplomatically point out the group’s frustration, but Luann deflects and frames other women as jealous. Back in New York, Sonja remotely plans Aviva’s anniversary party at the Empire State Building’s Empire Room, where Aviva later falls down a short flight of stairs but jokes about it. The party features an awkward band, Reid’s sweet toast, and conflict when Ramona accuses Heather of being fake and a liar, repeatedly walking away as Heather calmly follows her around, escalating Ramona’s agitation through the night.00:00 Episode Setup01:29 London Shenanigans01:49 Luann vs Carole05:17 NYC Party Planning08:49 Dinner One Up Drama12:48 Heather Confronts Luann19:37 Back to NYC Party Day20:19 Aviva Anxiety Talk28:02 Party Arrival and Fall32:04 Ramona vs Heather Fight41:10 Wrap Up and GoodbyeSupport the show
