The Real Housewives of New York City started out this week with Bethenny and Ramona walking over the Brooklyn Bridge to meet up with Alex and Simon. Bethenny lets Ramona know that she called Jill about their big rift. Ramona thinks that Bethenny planted the story that was in The Daily News. Bethenny gets really upset about the entire conversation and Ramona says that bottom line, Bethenny and Jill need to meet face to face. The conversation is so awkward that both of the girls are really relieved to see Simon and Alex. Ramona takes photos of the only time she has been in Brooklyn and Bethenny thinks that she is on the Ramona-coaster because the emotions are so all over the place.

Kelly has to do a story for Gothic Magazine, and she is trying to approach people on the street to see what they are wearing. No one seems to want to be in the magazine, but she finally does find a few people. 

LuAnn is in town to put together a high-end donation for a thrift store that only sells couture. She is staying with Jill because she still hasn’t found a place in the city. While there, Jill shows Ramona that she got a Saks Diamond Card because she spent too much money. Jill also brings up that Kelly and Bethenny have called a truce, and Jill is really upset by it. She wrote Kelly an email about it, because she thinks it is hypocritical. 

Bethenny gets to Alex’s early to help pick out the models for the Brooklyn Fashion Weekend. She wants to tell Alex about how she is going to LA to visit her ailing father who she has a terrible relationship with. Kelly shows up later, along with Ramona. Of course Kelly come in, starts talking about how hard being a model is, and makes no sense, like usual. I seriously, have not heard her make sense in a conversation this season. While there, Ramona invites Bethenny over for Wednesday because Jill is coming over and she wants them to clear the air face to face.

Jill goes to Alex’s house to visit, see the renovation, and make sure that the air is cleared about the children. They talk about how Jill said she was stressed out, but Jill has to back pedal about her comments and it seems the air has cleared. Alex brings up the fashion show. Jill wants to know if she is inviting Bethenny, which brings up their argument. Alex alludes to Bethenny’s father being sick, and that she could use a friend. Jill is adamant that she doesn’t want to reach out to Bethenny but she never really says why, just some stuff about relationships being all that you have in this world and maybe that Bethenny is too driven? Alex starts to think that Bethenny might be in the right in the argument. She feels it is a lot easier to believe Bethenny, who says that Jill is trying to insert herself into her business and gain credit for it or get something back for it. Alex believes that Jill does keep score.

Later, Jill and LuAnn go to Ramona’s to get some high end couture for the charity party. Bethenny is back from LA, she is exhausted, but Ramona set up a meeting so she goes to her house. LuAnn comes around the corner and takes a huge breath, she feels like she has seen a ghost. Jill feels like she is being ambushed. Bethenny wants to just say a few things and Jill keeps refusing. Finally she complies. Jill is really upset about the Bobby thing and several other things that she thinks she let go by because of their friendship. In the middle of their conversation LuAnn barges in with tea. They get back to talking and Bethenny says that Jill just kind of sets people up to fail. LuAnn and Ramona are waiting in the wings, and are upset. Bethenny says that there is always something wrong with people, that Jill always thinks the worst of people. Bethenny says that she would not have gone over Jill to call Bobby or Gloria directly. Again, LuAnn interrupts and says that they need to get going, the car is downstairs. Bethenny is like “Thanks for the diversions, I get it, LuAnn wants her best friend back.” Bethenny leaves and Jill is completely upset with Ramona. Ramona can’t believe that she is so upset at her, since Jill did it last year with Kelly and Bethenny. Jill is questioning herself; maybe she has been too hard on Bethenny. Jill keeps refusing to forgive Bethenny and no one knows why.
