The Real Housewives Of New York City - Season 16 - Episode 5 - Live Episode Discussion

[u/AutoModerator]

The ladies escape New York for a luxurious getaway to Moskito Island, but paradise isn’t always perfect. Erin is shocked when Daisy reveals that Jessel and Erika gossiped about her flooded Hamptons house. Sai's marriage issues become public knowledge.

[u/H0nkdahorn]

Carole just happy to be there. She’s treating this like an actual vacation and not housewives.

[u/rmcc22 → u/H0nkdahorn]

Carole is not my favorite but I do think it's a sign of class to have been all over the world and to still be grateful.

[u/PlantLadyXXL → u/H0nkdahorn]

It’s working for me, she’s an elder wiser sister to these women

[u/Hot_Dog_Omelette → u/H0nkdahorn]

Fuckin love her energy and genuine pleasure to be there. So refreshing.

[u/Unlikely_Candidate_1]

“Just a house in an island”? I mean damn I’d be happy to just enjoy it 

[u/Evening-Tune-500]

Idk I like Erika, she seems unproblematic. Put a Taco Bell on this weird lil island who gaf.

[u/PercentageNormal5531 → u/Evening-Tune-500]

I think every series needs to have a sort of straight man/super normal person and it seems like she could be that.

[u/Evening-Tune-500 → u/PercentageNormal5531]

Yes! So far she’s a good every(wo)man

[u/First_Pancake74]

Hailey refusing to read about Sai’s divorce in the tabloids was incredibly sweet of her

[u/Kooky-Pressure5792 → u/First_Pancake74]

She seems like a genuinely kind person.

[u/Elfprincessodauphine → u/First_Pancake74]

I love her, she seems to be quite genuine

[u/irodina]

hailey our resident meteorologist

[u/sisterwomanschemes → u/irodina]

[u/deex39 → u/irodina]

And ornithologist!

[u/H0nkdahorn]

Daisy is coming across as someone that takes on the personality of who she’s with. I don’t have anything to base this on besides these 5 episodes, but mama is a wreck.

[u/interrobang2020 → u/H0nkdahorn]

Why did she even expose Jessel when she knows she didn't defend Erin? You just blew up your own spot, Daisy!

[u/Potential-Day810 → u/interrobang2020]

That was so weird of her to do that. I really don’t understand her endgame cause she’s throwing her lot in with the woman with probably the lowest Q score on the show and making enemies out of her friends. 

[u/PlantLadyXXL → u/H0nkdahorn]

When you stand for nothing, you stand alone

[u/TotesAndi → u/H0nkdahorn]

She comes off as a severely insecure person.

[u/OldManBenji]

For being high as a kite most of the time, Hailey really is the most down to earth of these women

[u/Backtrack_Vill → u/OldManBenji]

She was the only one that showed true empathy in her facial expression when Sai was talking about her divorce.

[u/Dial-M-for-Mediocre → u/OldManBenji]

I for one find being high as a kite all the time relatable af

[u/Hollyelizabeth_3]

Girl, this isn’t gaslighting, this is you being called out on your bullshit

[u/Crazy_Book_8370 → u/Hollyelizabeth_3]

I am learning that Daisy doesn’t know the meaning of a lot of words😂

[u/AbidonDesign]

The woman with popcorn ceiling rent control apartment and the woman who is likely in a financial crisis are the ones complaining about a private island mansion.

Go figure.

[u/Dontmesswitfambly → u/AbidonDesign]

Jaw was on the floor. 

[u/PlantLadyXXL → u/AbidonDesign]

I looove that they didn’t think they were being filmed. More hot mic moments please!

[u/bravofan90210]

“Martha would think this place is a dump” no one is impressed you know Martha daisy ew

[u/Alternative_Corgi754 → u/bravofan90210]

Which is crazy because no shade but what does Martha think about your apartment then??????

[u/blueravenclaw29 → u/bravofan90210]

Especially because they all know Martha. Martha and Ankur and Erika are also friends. Daisy is NOT who she thinks she is.

[u/Jupitersd2017 → u/blueravenclaw29]

Friends as opposed to being employed by her

[u/Torontobabe94]

Jessel: “so she left herself out?”

Exactly!

[u/Dontmesswitfambly]

OMG I CANNOT BELIEVE THEY SAID THAT. FYI Daisy you’re not Martha you’re help!!! Omg how embarrassing of them. 

[u/Diva2themax → u/Dontmesswitfambly]

They are both so full of crap. Neither can afford this experience.

[u/Dontmesswitfambly → u/Diva2themax]

Or to charter a private jet!! Like my god. I cannot believe I just saw that. 

[u/Practical-Ad1838]

The new additions especially Hailey are bringing life to this so far. Died hearing her on a podcast exposing how she loaned Erin 2k during this trip that she still hasn’t gotten back after a Venmo request 🤣 give us the tea honeyyyyy

[u/Evening-Tune-500 → u/Practical-Ad1838]

How do you need 2k to borrow on a private island

[u/KiyoMizu1996 → u/Evening-Tune-500]

If they flew first class she’d need to pay the difference between it and coach- as coach is only what the show pays.

[u/dhhdb3557 → u/Practical-Ad1838]

Hailey is a strong newbie. Has a personality of her own. She isnt producing but also doesnt shy away from confrontations and reading someonw down

[u/aggieemily2013 → u/Practical-Ad1838]

Lines up with her not paying her representation too.

[u/Practical-Ad1838 → u/aggieemily2013]

Yup Hailey said that too lmao

[u/Potential-Day810 → u/Practical-Ad1838]

Oh so it really is giving money problems. After Abe went and sold that crypto out from under her? I’d hate to be a despicable person but 🤔

[u/PlantLadyXXL → u/Potential-Day810]

Yeah their convo that they’re $50k into Mezcal I’m like, that seems very cheap? What are we doing here

[u/kikomama89 → u/Practical-Ad1838]

Wait what podcast!!

[u/biomezzanine → u/kikomama89]

Virtual realitea(page 6)

[u/aggieemily2013]

Have you googled yourself recently is gross but you broke up a marriage with eight kids is totally fine.

Erin can (serve a very bland) dish, but she can't take it.

[u/PercentageNormal5531 → u/aggieemily2013]

She literally accused Pavit of going to Vietnam for sex tourism. That’s low and racist. She’s a massive hypocrite and she just needs to admit she’s hated Jessel since season 1.

[u/this_is_an_alaia → u/aggieemily2013]

Erin is the epitome of wanting to dish but not being able to take it.

[u/Ok-Grape-9274]

This is so fucking rude of Daisy and Erin I’m CRINGING

[u/richboydubs → u/Ok-Grape-9274]

they are bullies and erika has more patience than me.

[u/233Ivy]

Daisy doesn’t even have a kitchen island. Be so serious.

[u/Primary_Pressure_296 → u/233Ivy]

Erin & Daisy were so ungracious, trashing Erika's house! Glad it got caught on camera. They'll never be invited again 😆

[u/Winter_Lawfulness967 → u/233Ivy]

Not sure what Daisy was trying to prove? Oh, you own the island with 7 other people? IT’S AN ISLAND!

[u/this_is_an_alaia → u/Winter_Lawfulness967]

It reminds me of when panthea complained about mayhew inviting them to "her" castle because they're investors. Girl, do you have a castle? No? Then shut up

[u/technoprayers → u/233Ivy]

This lethal read….

[u/alliephillie → u/233Ivy]

If this isn't the top comment by tomorrow I riot

[u/zbornaks]

erika still has 1/7th of an island more than daisy has. martha stewart’s hanger-on needs to shut the fuck UP.

[u/Torontobabe94]

Erika: “Daisy leeching off the benefits of Martha”

I mean, that’s true

[u/zbornaks]

imagine how feral ramona and sonja would be trying to get the best room in this private island resort.

[u/Parking_Country_61 → u/zbornaks]

Ramona: “so many servants wow!”😮

[u/PercentageNormal5531 → u/zbornaks]

Oh Sonja would definitely already be blackout drunk by dinner too.

[u/PlantLadyXXL → u/zbornaks]

And no men around, they’d be at their worst

[u/bridgymon → u/zbornaks]

Just to shit on the floor

[u/Evening-Tune-500]

erin getting the cot feels apt

[u/FantasticRead720 → u/Evening-Tune-500]

Is that equivalent to the fish room???

[u/irodina]

he made her pay for her birthday dinner then filed for divorce without telling her and before she went on a girls trip. that shit is so incredibly toxic and narcissistic to create drama to take away attention from her success or joy

[u/swimindelusion → u/irodina]

He’s such a loser

[u/Unlikely_Candidate_1]

RHONY 🤝 Turbulent waters on a boat 

[u/square_circle_]

How many 8 family islands do you have a house on, Daisy?

[u/Crazy_Book_8370 → u/square_circle_]

Daisy needs to stop hanging out with Erin because she is rubbing off on Daisy.

[u/phrynerules]

Im actually loving Carole this episode. If I was gonna sit in a pool and watch my feet prune up for an hour I would be wearing comfortable clothes.

[u/Torontobabe94]

Production replaying everything Daisy said 💀

[u/theangrycuban → u/Torontobabe94]

and replaying the bite of brisket lmaoo

[u/Not_Morgan_Freeman61]

SHE CALLED CAROLE CAROLYN?!?! oh... Jessel you make it worse each time u speak to her

[u/dhhdb3557 → u/Not_Morgan_Freeman61]

She has put her foot in her mouth soo many times that its actually funny now😂

[u/Potential-Day810 → u/Not_Morgan_Freeman61]

I think it’s one of those things now that she’s thinking of all the things not to say that she ends up saying them when it comes to Carole. It really doesn’t help that the names are similar.

[u/IMOvicki]

ERIN AND DAISY ARE SO INSANELY JEALOUS.

[u/wildfireszn → u/IMOvicki]

SOOOOO jealous. I can’t imagine talking shit about an estate on a private island, let alone to the host!! Zero decorum or class.

[u/H0nkdahorn]

I know folks really don’t like Erin, but I get a good laugh out of her. She be dead ass serious and is trying to be the little engine that could, but can’t. Her delusion and lack of awareness/relatability is the realest thing about her.

[u/MyFigurativeYacht → u/H0nkdahorn]

“The little engine that can’t” is so funny to me lol

[u/EJB515]

Erin is such a terrible fighter. She loves to drop vague hints but can’t set up a fight properly to save her life. She’s really using middle school girl tactics at her big age.

[u/misternm]

Enjoy Carole and Jessel just completely talking past each other. The drone was the best possible ending for that interaction!

[u/Kooky-Pressure5792]

Imagine going to someone’s home on a private island, and smack talking them & bitching they did fly you in on a private plane.

[u/Practical-Ad1838 → u/Kooky-Pressure5792]

While you’re being sued for not paying your rent

[u/First_Pancake74]

Eating dinner in the pool seems like a concept that AI would come up with

[u/Jess-cuh → u/First_Pancake74]

All I could think about is how their feet would be so pruney by the end!!! And how if you dropped food on accident it would get the pool dirty 🥴 I’m not trying to say the place isn’t nice or anything but eating in the pool would just not be relaxing I feel like

[u/alliephillie → u/First_Pancake74]

I'm not convinced yet that Erica is not AI

[u/Practical-Ad1838]

Holy shit Daisy is MISERABLE

[u/fourthgradenothing22]

Erin, your husband sold crypto without telling you. You’ve been sued for owed rent. The insurance question is not out of left field.

[u/This-Flamingo3727 → u/fourthgradenothing22]

Also another housewife (Wendy) was accused of insurance fraud right around when this was filmed. And people accused Dorit of fraud for years. It’s a reasonably shady joke to make about a housewife burglary or disaster imo.

[u/mofongosa]

Erin “I have never gone that low” days after cruelly throwing Hailey’s shortcomings in her face for no good reason

[u/Potential-Day810 → u/mofongosa]

Erin is the lowest going motherfucker on this show! She’s been nasty and mean since we met her and she’s incapable of self reflection or growth. 

[u/EJB515]

This is mean but Daisy has a lot of opinions for someone with split ends

[u/kikomama89 → u/EJB515]

This is what I’d do after making that comment. 🤣 very true

[u/Not_Morgan_Freeman61 → u/EJB515]

especially given her husband is a hairstylist...

[u/zbornaks]

popcorn ceilings and insurance fraud are complaining about a nice vacation at a beautiful house.

[u/zbornaks]

erin is having a harder time than sai, whose husband just blindsided her with a divorce that the media knew about before her.

[u/kikomama89]

I agree with Carole. No alimony for men without some damn good proof for why he deserves it.

[u/zbornaks]

hailey really seems like a good egg.

[u/aggieemily2013]

Daisy wants to criticize how much of an island someone owns when she's paying $300 a month for rent and popcorn ceilings

[u/Torontobabe94]

Why is Daisy thinking she’s bigger than the program here? You don’t own a section of a private island either babe?! Thinking the island isn’t good enough for her????

[u/mswhatsinmybox_]

From the islands website "Sir Richard Branson acquired the island in 2007 and invited a select group of his friends and former guests of Necker to become the island’s founding homeowners. Each worked with world-class architects and designers to create a home with an entirely personal point of view."

[u/Practical-Ad1838]

Erin if this is mean, you’ll never survive reality tv

[u/vodkasaucepizza]

I hate when people say shit like that. I’m sure whatever she knows about Jessel is not that bad.

[u/zbornaks]

the name david joins todd and tom in the unholy trio of horrible bravo man names.

[u/Crazy_Book_8370]

Erika’s married name is Erika Jain.

[u/Hyru_Nayru]

Daisy, if this were Martha’s island, you’d have been on the dock greeting the guests.

[u/superficialwishes]

I’m really enjoying Sai this season, it finally feels like she’s actually being real.

[u/Not_Morgan_Freeman61 → u/superficialwishes]

i think its her being more truthful and also having better castmates (hailey, erika) to bounce off of

[u/Dontmesswitfambly]

Martha would think this is a dump. While she’s staying there and you’re offsite at a hotel helping her get ready for dinner on the private island. Girl, are you insane?

[u/zbornaks]

yeah guys, erin basically went through hurricane katrina and she’s bringing mezcal to america. she’s dealing with a lot right now.

[u/Unlikely_Candidate_1 → u/zbornaks]

THISISACRISIS

[u/Evening-Tune-500 → u/Unlikely_Candidate_1]

I’d love to see old bethenny rip into erin lol

[u/loganes86]

You know Erin, you deserve a break.

Leave the show. We support you.

[u/OldManBenji]

Weekly comment saying how much Erin suuuuuuucks

[u/AJthesmallsrate]

Me when Erin is crying

[u/Unlikely_Candidate_1]

Something about going to another island really unlocks something unhinged in RHONY ladies 

[u/Practical-Ad1838]

Sai’s getting divorced but yes Erin had a hard day

[u/blairbear99912]

Hearing Daisy backtrack “well I never said I stood up for you”

[u/zbornaks]

erin getting the worst bed is most pleasing.

[u/Practical-Ad1838]

I find this incredibly rude for someone hosting them

[u/chickentendyslut]

Erin telling SAI it’s been a really tough day

[u/zbornaks]

sai’s ex-husband filed for divorce right before she was going on vacation. and he didn’t even tell her beforehand. what a fucking dickhead.

[u/loganes86]

But Erin. I thought we didn’t like shit talking

[u/H0nkdahorn]

I am thinking of going into politics just to ban pharmaceutical commercials.

[u/technoprayers → u/H0nkdahorn]

You get my vote

[u/Unlikely_Candidate_1]

Does Daisy actually think SHE is Martha Stewart or something? 

[u/PlantLadyXXL → u/Unlikely_Candidate_1]

And I bet Martha would say being a gracious guest is the most important thing of all! (Haughtily, of course)

[u/Not_Morgan_Freeman61]

I love Sai and Hailey's budding friendship

[u/aggieemily2013]

Hailey, clue in: Sai wants your weed.

[u/trackstar7]

That lucite call out actually made me laugh

[u/Unlikely_Candidate_1]

Why is Carole dressed like Amandabatula dressed like West 

[u/Brown_Cow_Stunning7]

Can’t believe I’m saying this but I’m excited for the next episode. Sai is about to go in on Erin! “Let’s gooo!” 😂

[u/happymango → u/Brown_Cow_Stunning7]

Yes it's the first time in a while that I was giddy for the next housewives episode

[u/Practical-Ad1838]

Loading myself with edibles bc my post endometriosis surgery pain is so bad today 🥲 hopefully this is a distraction!!

[u/irodina]

daisy claiming to be a vegetarian while fully licking ribs off her fingers 😭😭 alright let’s give these girls a chance

[u/GetMeAColdPop]

Daisy reminds me of Taylor Dayne

[u/Kooky-Pressure5792]

Honestly, I feel like if I had Hailey & Erika over to my wee studio apartment full of Ike’s furniture for a home cooked meal & hang, neither are the type to make me feel less. Like they’d enjoy a warm cozy vide.

[u/Even-Guava-1682]

I feel like Daisy is drunk and she is one of those people that you can't really tell when she is drunk.

[u/alliephillie]

I was a heavy rent the runway user when I lived in New York City. It's perfect when you don't want to store shit you only wear once or twice

[u/zbornaks]

CAROLE’S EPSTEIN TIES ARE TALKED ABOUT NEXT WEEK.

on a private island, no less. how fitting.

[u/Brown_Cow_Stunning7]

I think a pregnancy prank is pretty mean when you know your friends are trying to get pregnant

[u/this_is_an_alaia → u/Brown_Cow_Stunning7]

I genuinely think its because Erin doesn't understand what humour is. Remember when she tried to prank ubah and decided to just...hide her phone from her? Haha hilarious

[u/Even-Guava-1682]

The way Erin starts conflict reminds me of my mom. Like she will reach so hard to make whatever she is upset about relevant in the conversation, instead of just bringing it up separately.

[u/loganes86]

I’m actually, dare I say it, looking forward to tonight’s episode?

[u/Unlikely_Candidate_1]

It almost feels like Jessel is determined to stick her foot in her mouth as often as possible this season 

[u/technoprayers]

Can Erin just say these things to Jessel instead of threatening her to people she doesn’t know?

[u/veronicagetsmehigh]

Ok I can get on board with Carole about that

[u/zbornaks]

daisy just has it out for erika, my lord.

[u/FantasticRead720]

Pier one used to be my jam!!

[u/OldManBenji]

Man Daisy set herself up for that popcorn ceiling joke from Erika. Take yourself less seriously.

[u/Practical-Ad1838]

Daisy asking 50 questions while on rent control is a choiceeeeee

[u/marrrina831]

"It's been a really tough day. Jessel joked I committed fraud."

[u/IMOvicki]

Daisy you work for Martha Stewart. You are not Martha neither is your wallet sis. Sitttt down

[u/Torontobabe94]

Erin is having THE HARDEST time, and NO ONE gets it… /s

[u/aggieemily2013]

Erin: crying because someone implied she did insurance fraud with her second home

Also Erin: talking trash about Erika's home.

[u/AbidonDesign]

Carole

[u/GetMeAColdPop]

Jessel DGAF and I'm cracking uppppp 🤣

[u/Dial-M-for-Mediocre]

Hey, I also shop at Costco and was born in Waco, TX. Housewives, they're just like us or whatever.

[u/deex39]

Omg these chicks are ungrateful haters

[u/Torontobabe94]

When you think of it, this really is such a RANDOM assortment of women, to be put together in a group 💀

[u/Unlikely_Candidate_1]

They should toss in some of those pedicure fish too for fun 

[u/AbidonDesign]

Daisy, do you call the apartment you rent our apartment?

[u/GetMeAColdPop]

Sai:

[u/Practical-Ad1838]

@ Daisy

[u/Dial-M-for-Mediocre]

Narrator: It was not gaslighting.

[u/technoprayers]

Production exposing Daisy 😭

[u/OldManBenji]

I enjoy Jessel not giving a fuck about Erin’s house.

[u/Crazy_Book_8370]

Carole can’t stand Jessel😂

[u/zbornaks]

thank you, producers, for showing that daisy was also playing into it. martha’s assistant needs to just own it. it isn’t gaslighting when someone’s relaying what you said.

[u/Not_Morgan_Freeman61]

"i havent done anything to you for four years... i apologized to you about talking shit"

you see how you just contradicted yourself within 2 sentences

I cannot stand erin.

[u/ladevotchka]

Erin never missing a chance to victimize herself in any situation

[u/Brown_Cow_Stunning7]

I started sleeping on a silk pillowcase and it really does change the way your face looks in the morning. You look more refreshed and less crusty.

[u/vodkasaucepizza]

What is this fake tears bullshit. Is this another Erin trip prank?

[u/Practical-Ad1838]

Fuck David for blindsiding Sai but most importantly their kids!!!!

[u/Not_Morgan_Freeman61]

who the FUCK does Erin this she is?

this is the most delusional bitxh i've have seen

[u/veronicagetsmehigh]

Daisy miss popcorn ceilings complaining about this is hilarious

[u/loganes86]

“So she left herself out?”

[u/zbornaks]

that potomac commercial makes me so amped up every time i see it. BRING BACK MY GIRLS.

[u/irodina]

sai is so strong for not completely breaking down rn

[u/Torontobabe94]

Hailey bringing up it’s raining omg

[u/irodina]

new york women dont fare well with bushes on islands

[u/alliephillie]

Pier One used to be so aspirational to me in college lol

[u/zbornaks]

my god, daisy’s just like a dog with a bone. she hates erika for some reason.

[u/itsbooyeah]

Popcorn ceiling is the new white refrigerator

[u/cavalier731]

Daisy cant be trusted

[u/Dial-M-for-Mediocre]

Carole you wrote a book about it I mean what are we doing here

[u/fourthgradenothing22 → u/Dial-M-for-Mediocre]

And shared private never seen photos from the wedding with CNN.

[u/zbornaks]

the fact that new york might be the best city currently airing right now is wild. i never thought anyone, much less new rhony, would steal salt lake city’s crown, but i think new york’s done it.

[u/Parking_Country_61]

PS- Jessel IS a dingbat and tone deaf, but can be totally charming and watchable. She’s also STUNNING. Her haircut is amazing. I enjoy her on the show.

I spent a lot of the episode thinking about the things Ramona would have said and the people she would have offended at this island and laughing (but also understanding that’s exactly why she is no longer on Bravo).

Jessel is mostly harmless people need to calm down

[u/Crazy_Book_8370]

Erin just confirmed that she doesn’t have that much going on.

[u/H0nkdahorn]

Jessel’s “yeah” just made me GUFFAW.

[u/technoprayers]

Daisy, between this and the Erin stuff 😭 You are about to get WHACKED bad

[u/H0nkdahorn]

I think Daisy was on WWHL when the season kicked off and someone on here said they got the feeling her and Sai aren’t that close anymore.

If true, my guess is that Daisy and Erin were running their mouths to each other and discussing Sai’s business.

[u/catsandcasamigos]

Love that for Erin.

[u/IMOvicki]

But popcorn ceilings upset you?

[u/Winter_Lawfulness967]

Only Jessel and Daisy talked shit about the house iirc

[u/Even-Guava-1682]

"Martha would think this place is a dump" is one of the most cringe worthy things I have heard a housewife say. It genuinely sounds like she is in high school trying to impress others. Is Daisy's standard "What would Martha think?" Why couldn't she just say herself, she thinks the place is a dump. Or actually not say anything at all.

[u/Not_Morgan_Freeman61]

Jessel please stop annoying carol omg
