But every once in a while, we see that rule get bent, and, luckily for us, Angie managed to sneak her signature prop past security \u2014 not sunglasses, but a scroll that supposedly holds proof that Lisa Barlow is the one behind an anonymous troll account. Reality Von Tease: Here We Go Again. \u201cThe person trolling me has the same phone number Lisa has,\u201d Angie says, as Andy peruses the hate comments. But an unruffled Lisa tells him that Angie\u2019s evidence holds no water and that her number is in no way attached to that account, calling the scroll a \u201cprop flop.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"clay-paragraph\" data-editable=\"text\" data-uri=\"www.vulture.com\/_components\/clay-paragraph\/instances\/cmkn67wu600133b7b467vpw7l@published\" data-word-count=\"153\">But how did Angie allegedly crack this case? Well, she tried to log in to the troll account, clicked \u201cForgot Password,\u201d and Instagram sent a password reset link to Lisa\u2019s number, which Angie shows. The problem is that when you do this, you\u2019re the one who types in the number the link is sent to. You can even see in her screenshot that right behind the pop-up saying a link was sent to Lisa\u2019s number was Instagram, prompting Angie to enter that phone number herself. And let\u2019s be real, if it were this easy to identify anonymous troll accounts, we\u2019d be living in a much different world. Nonetheless, both couches are screaming back and forth over this so endlessly that Andy\u2019s only hope to squash it is to walk off the stage himself \u2014 marking a reunion first \u2014 at which they all apologize for their bad behavior and beg him to return.<\/p>\n<p class=\"clay-paragraph\" data-editable=\"text\" data-uri=\"www.vulture.com\/_components\/clay-paragraph\/instances\/cmkn67wx100143b7buyf8hdt2@published\" data-word-count=\"114\">While they take their lunch break, we get a peek into Meredith and Lisa\u2019s war room, where they\u2019re not even trying to hide their alliance. When Meredith tells Lisa she\u2019s been performing well so far, Lisa craves specifics for her compliments, asking, \u201cLike which part?\u201d But their real focus is on what\u2019s still ahead, and they prep for the inevitable conversation about the flight from hell, which Lisa says they have to be ready to back each other during because they both know the truth. What Meredith doesn\u2019t know, however, is whether the set decoration of various Greek foods is real or fake \u2014 and I could watch her pensively contemplate that for hours.<\/p>\n<p class=\"clay-paragraph\" data-editable=\"text\" data-uri=\"www.vulture.com\/_components\/clay-paragraph\/instances\/cmkn67x0300153b7bcy1rahuj@published\" data-word-count=\"149\">Before we get to the cast trip, the conversation turns to Mary, who tells us that Robert Jr. is currently incarcerated after breaking the restraining order that his ex-wife had against him \u2014 but she\u2019s at least relieved to know he\u2019s somewhere where he can\u2019t be using. As for the recent TLC documentary alleging that Mary\u2019s church is actually a cult, Mary brushes it off and says that while it (and her family\u2019s participation in it) hurts her, she just put it in the \u201cpile of all the rest of the things that hurt me.\u201d Andy notes that RHOSLC fans seemed uninterested in the documentary, which is probably because the whole thing is old news and we saw that same discussion already play out on the show years ago. Catch up, TLC! Who knows, maybe in five years they\u2019ll release a documentary about what happened on that fateful flight.<\/p>\n<p class=\"clay-paragraph\" data-editable=\"text\" data-uri=\"www.vulture.com\/_components\/clay-paragraph\/instances\/cmkn67x3200163b7bwdb449ov@published\" data-word-count=\"135\">That one might actually be worth watching, because it still doesn\u2019t seem like we\u2019re getting any real answers. That whole alleged blow-up, of course, began with Britani bringing up the TikTok that claimed Seth was cheating, but more recently, Britani also claimed on Watch What Happens Live that she has other proof. \u201cWell, not proof that would hold up in court,\u201d she quickly backtracks, but she claims that Seth told someone she knows (who Lisa says is Jared) that he has two girlfriends where he works. If we\u2019re talking Jared\u2019s word for anything, we\u2019re doomed, but nonetheless, Lisa then starts to bring up all the other claims that Jared made, including one about Todd going to Dubai for ED meds, which we see unseen footage of them talking about at Amy, the Utah Socialite\u2019s, party.<\/p>\n<p class=\"clay-paragraph\" data-editable=\"text\" data-uri=\"www.vulture.com\/_components\/clay-paragraph\/instances\/cmkn67x6000173b7bpha2ezub@published\" data-word-count=\"95\">I don\u2019t care about Jared or what he\u2019s doing, but I am grateful that Amy, the Utah Socialite, is back on my screen, even in a flashback. It begs the question: Why isn\u2019t Amy, the Utah Socialite, at the reunion? She should be first chair. No, she should be hosting it. Amy, the Utah Socialite, wouldn\u2019t have walked off. At the very least she should be the one bringing out drinks at the end for the women to toast with. I\u2019m already looking forward to next season when Amy, the Utah Socialite, is center snowflake.<\/p>\n<p class=\"clay-paragraph\" data-editable=\"text\" data-uri=\"www.vulture.com\/_components\/clay-paragraph\/instances\/cmkn67x8r00183b7bkzlesydh@published\" data-word-count=\"151\">Until then, we finally get to the question on everybody\u2019s mind: Why didn\u2019t anyone think to take out their phone and record whatever was happening on that plane? Whitney regrets not doing just that, while Heather says that that would have been a shitty thing to do, even though Andy points out that she had no problem doing it when Lisa lost her ring in the bathroom. Heather\u2019s point doesn\u2019t click for me, especially because she\u2019s the one who normally has the most reverence for the Housewives art form and knows what makes for good television. The better explanation comes from Britani, who reminds us that she was attacked for an entire season for recording on her phone. Ultimately, I think the most likely explanation is that this was a six-hour flight, and Meredith\u2019s anger was very drawn out, so there wasn\u2019t one specific moment that felt intense enough to film.<\/p>\n<p class=\"clay-paragraph\" data-editable=\"text\" data-uri=\"www.vulture.com\/_components\/clay-paragraph\/instances\/cmkn67xbv00193b7b9rout8qv@published\" data-word-count=\"87\">Somewhere along this conversation, Meredith says that Heather has been screeching at her for two months, which makes Heather completely blow up, telling her that their friendship is over. I had no idea that screeching was such a sore spot. Heather then points out that even as they\u2019ve talked about the flight, they went out of their way to not mention the slanderous things she was actually saying against Britani, not to protect Britani but to protect Meredith. \u201cWe\u2019re definitely not protecting Britani,\u201d Mary mutters in agreement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"clay-paragraph\" data-editable=\"text\" data-uri=\"www.vulture.com\/_components\/clay-paragraph\/instances\/cmkn67xeo001a3b7btx49y4m3@published\" data-word-count=\"146\">When Andy asks a pointed question about whether or not Meredith had a drink before the flight, Meredith artfully pivots, instead wishing to reveal why she has such a fractured relationship with Britani in the first place. She says that the rift was \u201crooted in bigotry\u201d after Britani showed support for a nail technician who was under fire for making <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=BnTRMPg8hq0\" class=\"editor-rtfLink\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">antisemitic comments<\/a>. Britani\u2019s side of this story is that he was Meredith\u2019s nail tech who reached out offering free services, then asked her to leave him a good review \u2014 she blindly did so, then once she found out about his hateful comments, she took down the review and never contacted him again. Meredith finds it hard to believe that Britani didn\u2019t know about the situation because it was all over the news, but let\u2019s be real, does Britani seem like somebody who watches the news?<\/p>\n<p class=\"clay-paragraph\" data-editable=\"text\" data-uri=\"www.vulture.com\/_components\/clay-paragraph\/instances\/cmkn67xhe001b3b7bmwx22ygm@published\" data-word-count=\"65\">In any case, Britani already apologized to Meredith personally and does it again on the reunion stage \u2014 but nonetheless, Meredith suggests that Britani has a problem with her because she\u2019s Jewish. Naturally, this assertion makes Britani sob her makeup off as she denies it and storms off the stage in tears. And we still don\u2019t know if Meredith had a drink before that flight.<\/p>\n<p>          VULTURE NEWSLETTER<\/p>\n<p>Keep up with all the drama of your favorite shows!<\/p>\n<p>        Vox Media, LLC Terms and Privacy Notice<\/p>\n<p class=\"expanded-terms \" aria-hidden=\"true\">By submitting your email, you agree to our <a href=\"https:\/\/nymag.com\/newyork\/terms\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Terms<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/nymag.com\/newyork\/privacy\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Privacy Notice<\/a> and to receive email correspondence from us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Salt Lake City housewives finally pushed Andy Cohen to do the unthinkable: walk off his own set.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":296047,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[265],"tags":[2062,18,117,19,17,13928,1445,2463,23917,2065,128,13927],"class_list":{"0":"post-296046","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-bravo","9":"tag-eire","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-ie","12":"tag-ireland","13":"tag-overnights","14":"tag-reality-tv","15":"tag-recaps","16":"tag-the-real-housewives","17":"tag-the-real-housewives-of-salt-lake-city","18":"tag-tv","19":"tag-tv-recaps"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ie\/115933993696442791","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/296046","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=296046"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/296046\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/296047"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=296046"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=296046"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=296046"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
