Bravo heads to the Garden State for this installment of the "Housewives" franchise, focusing on affluent Jersey girls who are more than just friends: The cast has changed through the seasons but the featured housewives through the years have included Caroline Manzo, a devoted wife and mother of three adult children; former Las Vegas cosmetologist Jacqueline Laurita, who is now a full-time housewife; and Teresa Giudice, a mother of four who runs her household without help from a nanny or personal assistant.
Dolores mulls over the next steps in her relationship with Paulie; Margaret emotionally reflects on the strain in her marriage caused by Jan's sudden passing; Rachel and Teresa argue in defense of their husbands.
Teresa invites Jackie over for a visit; an innocent conversation between Dolores and Paul takes a sour turn when his divorce becomes the focus; Margaret recruits her friends for a charity golf outing; Jen Fessler meets with Jennifer Aydin for lunch.
Dolores discusses Paulie's recent job proposal; the Gorgas throw a limoncello-themed housewarming party where they receive an unwelcome gift; Jackie continues to campaign against Margaret.
Rachel's daughter recovers from a rough procedure; Margaret and Joe cope with life-changing news; Melissa plans an upcoming fashion show for Envy; hostility continues to mount between Danielle and Jennifer; a fun night turns into a brawl.
