The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Recap: Soup to Nuts

by

The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City is consistently wild, and this week’s episode takes the cake. It starts with Whitney throwing a garden party and inexplicably performing a detailed song about her friends. Before viewers can even process that, Mary casually mentions the party’s venue has a dark history – the previous owner committed suicide on Christmas Day in front of his dog, who was reportedly traumatized. The presence of peacocks roaming the garden leaves viewers wondering if it was a calculated branding move.

Once everyone gathered, Whitney shared that she’d planned the day hoping to lift their spirits, as she hadn’t been feeling like herself recently. She also revealed she’d invited a psychic from New York named Terrence, which understandably worried Mary, who believes psychics can be conduits for evil. However, Mary joked that anyone on the show could be possessed, really.

Bronwyn arrived wearing a coat that looked straight out of the movie *Midsommar*, and right away, Mary shared a surprising reason she avoids tuna tartare: she doesn’t want a family living inside her! It was a lot to process at the very beginning of their wine tasting.

The conversation shifted to Angie selling her house, which immediately caught Britani’s attention – it turns out she’s a real estate agent! I would have guessed she was just a free spirit, but she quickly pulled up the listing on her phone. A true professional, she immediately pointed out that the price had been lowered and that the house had been on the market for a long time. Angie, however, wasn’t happy to hear this critique from Britani, and it quickly escalated into a debate among everyone about which Salt Lake City zip code is the most desirable.

Just as Britani is about to critique the listing, Jared calls and reveals she didn’t take the month-long break Whitney suggested for her daughter’s well-being – which isn’t exactly a surprise. Whitney confronts Britani, telling her that Jared and Justin recently spent time together and Jared expressed concern that Britani is only using him for financial gain. This accusation is ridiculous; it’s clear Britani would pay Jared to stay with her if she could, and she immediately bursts into tears.

The timing was perfect, because Terrence then asked her to participate in a tarot reading that surprisingly revealed all the details of her strained relationship with her daughter. She insists there’s no way he could have known this information, and the show quickly cuts to footage of her discussing the same issues on camera last season, suggesting Terrence was simply paying attention as a viewer. Despite everything, I hope Britani never loses her sense of wonder.

During the dinner, Meredith decided to address a rumor Angie shared: that Lisa had been talking badly about her family. When Lisa sees Angie glaring at her, she defensively claims the story is false and accuses Angie of lying. Heather is surprised Meredith isn’t pressing Lisa harder, since she usually gets more upset over smaller issues. It seems Meredith and Lisa have agreed to be more forgiving of each other this year. Honestly, I’m glad they’re avoiding a fight – their arguments are always unpleasant.

Honestly, the drama really revolves around the ongoing fight between Lisa and Angie, and everyone’s still buzzing about Fresh Wolf’s unexpected return. It all came to a head when Lisa revealed she’d heard Angie used someone else’s credit card while traveling in Europe and then had to cover the cost with a check. Of course, Angie didn’t just take it lying down – she launched into a full-blown performance, dramatically throwing her credit cards across the table, one by one. It was quite a scene!

Amidst a loud argument about plastic surgery and someone’s height, Meredith notices Bronwyn crying after hearing difficult news about her mother’s health and being urged to seek peace. You’d think this would make everyone pause and reflect, but the drama quickly continues. Lisa starts yelling at Angie – who Whitney pulls away from the group – about something called the “Soup Man.” Soon, almost everyone has left the table, leaving the sommelier to politely offer another bottle of wine. The show highlights the restaurant staff of Salt Lake City just as much as it focuses on these women and their conflicts.

Honestly, the tension at this party was *intense* until Terrence brought Lisa in for her tarot reading. And wow, the cards were spot-on – they revealed a growing distance between Lisa and John. She admitted they haven’t been connecting lately, which, looking back at the season, feels incredibly important. From the start, Lisa seemed… different. More drained, less amused by the usual *Housewives* drama than we’re used to. Now it all clicks. If she’s already dealing with trouble at home, it explains why she’s been so worn down, especially when the drama starts involving John.

Terrence gains some respect by correctly guessing that Angie is starting a new business venture – a secret line of sunglasses no one knows about yet! I’m already planning to buy a pair as soon as they’re available. However, the reading wasn’t all good news, as Terrence also predicts Elektra’s horse will get injured.

Don’t worry, these revelations don’t derail the central conflict! There’s still plenty more to unpack – specifically, a large container filled with gifts. Angie brought a huge Tupperware bin containing every present Lisa had given her and her daughter over the years. As they examine each item, the conversation reveals what seems to be the core issue: Kérastase hair products. Angie appears to be angry that Lisa landed the Kérastase brand deal, despite the fact that Angie owns the salon and originally came up with the “high body count hair” jab that started this whole feud.

Finally, Lisa had enough and left, waving goodbye to Whitney while she sobbed as she read. Overcome with emotion, Angie snatched the toy horse Lisa had given Elektra and angrily threw it down, breaking its leg. Mary exclaimed that Terrence’s prediction had come true—it just wasn’t about the horse they expected. I have to admit, it gave me goosebumps.

Even though Lisa has left, Angie is still falling apart. The most memorable moment of her outburst was her crying and yelling, “I don’t even know anyone who sells soup!” However, things got worse when she accused everyone of constantly talking about Lisa, which immediately made Mary snap. Mary angrily told Angie she was finished and stormed off. This is why everyone is so careful around Mary – dealing with her anger just isn’t worth it. This is another person leaving during Whitney’s discussion… did Terrence anticipate this happening?

The episode closes with another snippet of Whitney’s unusual song, but I want to focus on Angie’s statement: “I’m not doing anything illegal with soup.” To be clear, Angie Katsanevas operates within the bounds of the law when it comes to soup. Let the record show: her soup activities are perfectly legal.
