The 15th episode of The Real Housewives of New York opens back at Black Shabbat. Much to their host, Archie's, horror, Ramona Singer is eating in the kitchen before the food has been blessed. Leah McSweeney leaves her Zoom call in disgust. While Ramona winds down, Sonja Morgan winds up her broken record. She gives a drunken and long winded speech that includes her support of many charities and ends with a walkout while bickering with Ramona; demanding she (Ramona) stop social climbing to find another friend with a yacht, plane, dress, Gucci and instead find a purpose. Ramona comments that Sonja has lost her mind and Luann de Lesseps begs her to stay silent. Linara, Eboni K. William's friend, shares her experience as a black woman being refused pain treatment for her fibroids while pregnant, the pain ended up inducing labor at 29 weeks threatening her and her child’s lives. At 9 o clock, Ramona gets up, announces it’s late, and asks a producer, Nathan, to call her an Uber. Before she goes, she tells Eboni that her question for the dinner game was “What would I like to change about myself?”, Eboni makes Ramona share her answer with the group: to be more filtered. The rest of the guest at dinner are stunned when Sonja and Lu explain that Ramona used to behave much worse. Sonja apologizes to Ramona for their fight. They kiss, hug, Sonja gropes Ramona, and they make up.
Lu comes over to Ramona's apartment. Lu has decided that Ramona needs a dinner etiquette intervention after Black Shabbat. Ramona tries to deflect her behavior onto Sonja’s behavior. Ramona tries to blame her behavior on not being served enough food and having drank too much. Ramona reveals she called Eboni first thing in the morning when she woke up to apologize. Lu calls her out for ending the night early and Ramona declares she doesn’t go out anymore, not in the past week. Ramona promises to never ever drink again on an empty stomach.
At Sonja's townhouse, Sonja is told by her staff that millennials don’t wear pants anymore. Eboni comes over and Sonja apologizes for her behavior. Eboni explains she thinks Ramona and her need to talk because their unresolved issues are causing her drunken outbursts. Eboni then reveals Archie called her and they’re unsure if Sonja remembers but she peed in Archie’s driveway behind the van. Sonja remembers.
Lu is waiting for the women to arrive at dinner. Sonja cancels because of a clogged toilet. Leah is phoning in, still quarantining from her coronavirus exposure. Vilma and Christina join them from the Fortune Society. Christina shares her story of going through the system and the legal process, with Ramona interjecting at every word. Ramona then asks what Vilma and Christina would do if they have a friend that’s on her way to rock bottom. She's asking about Sonja, but won't name names. If that wasn't clear enough, Lu does name Sonja as the friend they're worried about. Eboni and Ramona share that despite their very visible and evident differences, Eboni and Ramona both feel they are very similar and enjoy their time together. Lu doesn’t think their similarities go beyond body type and shoe size.
Leah’s quarantine is over. Kier, Leah's daughter and her dad, Rob, arrive at the apartment to discuss Kier attending private school for high school.
At Eboni’s apartment, her friend Natalie arrives in anticipation for the results of the paternal genetic investigation. Eboni’s grandmother, Katie, is in the house, too. Eboni has her urn on display. They are waiting for Linda, the genetic investigator, to come and tell her the results of her investigation. Linda informs them there are 3 brothers that each could be her father and they are all alive. Linda feels the most likely candidate is the brother closest in age to Eboni's mother and shares that he is currently married with two daughters. Eboni breaks down that her family has expanded.
