Wait. Does Duy really want more children?
Yes, he wants more kids.
When you sent me the text saying you're having a faith crisis,

When Robert and Mary want money,

Is that why you mortgaged your house?
Yes, that is exactly why I mortgaged my house.
I thought Lisa was trying to say something to all of us,
dropping little breadcrumbs about this Cameron guy.
So I wanted to go to the source, so I called Cameron.

"Real Housewives star charged in massive fraud
money laundering scheme." - No!

We're in this. We're all deceived.

"This is Jen. I tried calling you

I 100% believe what Cameron tells me.
Well, listen, Lisa, you have to know
I just felt like you know what?
I know Cameron's friends with Angie, too,
so I asked Angie for Cameron's phone number.
And I just wanted to know more about what he said to Meredith.
Like, what--what should we be alarmed with?
Yeah.
You know, Whitney doesn't know Cameron.
She has no relationship with Cameron.
I find it really bizarre that all of a sudden
Whitney's reaching out to Cameron.
Do I believe my friend Cameron? Yeah.
Is there a reason for these other girls
to be reaching out to him? Absolutely not.
I went to Cameron just to hear more about his experience,
because I felt like I was starting to finally
have the experience that everyone talks about with Mary,
and after talking to him, I was just thinking,
if Lisa knows what Cameron shared with me,
then I get why Lisa doesn't want to, like, upset Mary either.
Mary's complicated, and we're navigating someone complicated.
Yeah, but the thing that scares me is
rumors are that Mary and Robert are predators.
What?
Yeah. It's online.
Yeah, I-I don't even know if I'm comfortable saying it
because if it is true,
I don't wanna put my-- my family's safety at risk.
I mean, this is really creepy. This whole thing is creepy.
Mary and Robert used that bogeyman mentality--
the fear of God as their power to get what they want.
That's interesting to me because when I was in Mary's room
she said something to the effect with Jen,
where she's like, "See what happens
when you mess with my church? You go to jail."
To say all these lies about me and my church,
look at her now.
Jen. That's what Jen did, and look where Jen's at.
Okay.
Yeah, she--she messed with the wrong one.
I'm just like, wow, like, that's like a big statement, you know?
Like...
I don't know what she meant by it. I didn't know--
Did she have something to do with that?
I don't know. That's what she said, though.

- You're the only one talking. - No, but that was you guys--
- You guys know. - Just take a deep breath.
No, I'm not gonna take a deep breath.
Yes.
Because I'm being myself right now.
I'm not taking a deep breath. I'll take a deep breath
when I ----ing feel like it.
I don't have an issue with you right now.
Lisa needs to...
Shut up.
Sit over here for a second.
You know what? You guys all say you wanna be her friend,
and this is what you just did to her?
- Yeah. Uh-huh. - Are you kidding me?
- That's what I said. - I'm the only one
sitting here calmly, and I'm the only one
who was like, I'm checked out. I'm not interested.
Let her be. If you're her friend,
be her fricking friend or don't.
- Oh, my gosh. - Stop making it about ourselves.
Stop playing it!
I-I pray to God you're guilty.
...you're innocent. Why did I say that?
- I am innocent. - Okay. Let's, you know,
let's... whatever...the situation is.
Do I follow it? No.
I'm not gonna sit there and rip someone behind their back
and play their friend to their face.
That's not cool.
To me, that's what I would say is fake.
I love you, Mer, but I have a problem with this,
because you know what? I didn't attack Jen at all.
- I'm freezing. - I don't think that's okay.
Somebody was attacking her enough where she got up
out of that chair and started crying.
Are you gonna defend Mary? Are you gonna ----ing defend
what Mary said? I hope not. - I didn't defend Mary.
- I hope not. That was not okay. - Mary--But Mary wasn't
sitting there when she got up crying.
- That is not okay. - That I do know.
This is super hurtful.
Like, I've been friends with Meredith for over 10 years,
and it seems like there's a pattern here,
like if it has to do with Mary Cosby
or Meredith and her family, it's okay to defend them.
But when it comes to me, it's like, hey, fend for yourself.
I know what she said at the dinner table.
Thank you.
She was basically accusing her of being guilty,
and she's acting like, "Oh, no, now we're good. Kumbaya."
No, I was processing, and I thought that very--
Everybody speculated on her innocence or guilt.
WHITNEY: No, I said a lot.
You know what I told myself?
I'm willing to be a friend to you through this time for you.
I've been praying that you-- you--that you come out okay.
Seriously, I'm sick of it. Don't ----ing play dumb.
You know what? I can't, honestly.
I love you guys. I gotta go. I can't do this.
No, you're not--why can't-- why are you doing this?
No, she has ----ing traumatized my family for two years,
and I'm listening about traumatic?
- I'm not interested. Goodbye. - Okay, but see,
that's a whole nother thing, Meredith.
- No, it's not another thing. - Yes, it is!
I said don't include me if you're including her.
- You chose to do it. I'm out. - But listen. But--
Thank you, Jennie. It was lovely,
but I told you not to do this to begin with, so...
This is not fair because you're--
- I want it to be peaceful. - This is not fair.
- I understand. - Meredith...
This is not peaceful. It's not. It's not.
Meredith, Meredith, so you know, it's--
You have been screaming for a half-hour. I can't anymore.
Ha ha!
♪
- Meredith. - This is not peaceful.
- Meredith-- - It's not. It's not.
So, you know--
You have been screaming for a half-hour. I can't anymore.
- Ha ha! - I can't.
Oh, so it's all my fault. Okay, I got it.
No, It's not you. I'm telling you because you're yelling
in my face, and I need you to be speak to me quieter.
That's why I said we need to talk, not screaming.
Mom and Dad are fighting. What do we do?
Ladies, this is the International Peace Gardens.
How many storm-offs and tears need to be shed
for us to realize that we are missing the point
of the entire luncheon?
I have to talk to you.
I feel like I'm the only one that got the memo.
Is--Can we--Can we stop for a second?
You know what happens is? Mary's sitting next to you.
Like, literally, she's coming at me.
I'm ----ing sick of people coming at me, Meredith.
I'm sick of it. Tell Mary to stop.
You're my friend. Tell her to stop.
You know what? You can leave right now, or you can stay,
but it's conflicting with what you just said about Jen,
'cause you just came back, and you're like,
"She's the one going through this,"
but then she's the reason you're leaving.
Because you guys say you are her friends.
That's why I'm saying it, not for me.
That has nothing to do with me.
You can sit there because you're my friend,
and you can sit there because you're Jennie's friend,
but you're my friend. - It's unpleasant for me.
It's a negative energy.
It is toxic, and I don't want it in my life right now.
It is not for me. It is not for me.
I need you here. Can you please stay for me?
[voice breaking] Could you please ----ing stay for me?
Because you make me feel safe. Will you please stay for me?
If you don't stay for anyone else,
will you stay for me? I'm asking you as my friend.
Please stay for me. [crying]
I will.
And I understand you. You know that.
- Okay. - Please.
Okay, please?
Buckle up, baby. You got a long road.
Show your innocence.
That's what I'm gonna do.
So let's walk back to that table knowing that.
♪
All right, I'm back.
- I love you. - Love you, too.
I am back.
What did she say that brought you back to the table?
She asked me to stay for her. She wants my support.
Brrrrp! Bloop! Excuse me.
Oh! I'm sorry. I'm on your seat. Come on back.
Jen, are you okay?
Sorry we, like, tornadoed you.
Listen, we've made everything you're going through about us,
and the truth is... - Yeah, it's not. It's not.
...if anyone at this-- in the world
understands kind of what you're facing publicly
and in terms of, like, obligation to your family,
and, like, just responsibility, it's the women at this table,
and I think we can all agree on that.
- Yes, 100%. - That we understand.
This is awful.
[voice breaking] I just wanna let you guys all know
I promise...on my kids, on my husband, on my dad,
I am innocent. I did not do any of the things
that have been alleged against me.
I understand everybody needs to process things on their own,
and that's okay.
I know--I know it's a lot.
The world may seem to be against you, but it's not.
And you have people in your corner.
Well, I wouldn't say that, Heather.
I just...need people around me that...
Here. You're gonna drip.
[exhales deeply, sniffles]
...that believe in me and are there for me.
Really, that's all.
♪
Next time on "The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City"...
Mom, you came over with a plan to liquidate
a million dollars for me.
That's your retirement.
Mary said, "When you mess with my church,
you wind up in jail," and Meredith told us
she hired a private investigator?
It's kind of looking like they both may have known something.
Where do you stand with Lisa?
We gotta talk. I'm, like, so upset right now.
Yeah, you are continually attacking me
and yelling at me, and it's not boding well for me.
Oh, that's how-- Oh, okay, bye, Meredith.
I'm not chasing again.
Because sometimes you do come across as two-faced. You do.
When you referenced "slanted eyes,"
you know it's very insulting to me.
- I love slanted eyes. - And you're still saying it.
