A Reiki lunch turns Salt Lake City friendships toxic
#3608 RHOSLC S7E8 Part Two: The Youngish and the Reiki-less Live from DC
The live recap shows how a wellness exercise becomes a referendum on loyalty, gossip, self-care, and the limits of family-centered conflict.
- 1Angie’s defense of her TikTok and friendships collapses as accusations about gossip and loyalty intensify.
- 2The Reiki session supplies comic relief while Meredith Marks and the group struggle with its rituals and awkward setup.
- 3A fight over Mary’s husband and child pushes the cast’s usual hypocrisy into genuinely damaging territory.
Don't miss
Angie repeats comments about Mary’s husband and child, turning a fight over gossip and self-care into the episode’s most damaging rupture.
The brief
The hosts open on a Reiki lunch where Mary and Bronwyn align against Angie over a flower incident and her TikTok with Brittany Cartwright.
Angie confronts Mary, retreats to the bathroom, and returns to a group conversation about friendship, loyalty, gossip, and the trouble caused by long phone calls.
The Reiki exercise becomes a comic set piece as Meredith Marks arrives late in a business suit, skeptically navigates the floor seating, and endures chakra talk, oils, and sprays.
Angie’s garden props and Twizzler turn her case against Bronwyn into performance art, but accusations involving husbands and family make the fight harder to contain.
The standout rupture comes when Angie repeats comments about Mary’s husband and child; even the hosts’ jokes cannot soften the Housewives rule against weaponizing family and grief.
