Liz admits that she acted erratically at the end of Jerry&#8217;s birthday party. She said she plans to apologize to Kelsey for her actions and hopes to receive an apology in return.<\/p>\n<p>Alicia wants to take pizza chips to the beach. She stops at Pizza Mamma to get a pizza from her fianc\u00e9, Billy. Alicia said her grandfather was one of the first to make and sell pizza chips. He ran Superior Bakery. Alicia, Kelsey, Rosie, and Ashley go to the beach together.<\/p>\n<p>This is very Rhode Island. Alicia said Lula met Brian when Brian was married to Alicia&#8217;s Spanish teacher.<\/p>\n<p>Back to the birthday party report. Kelsey explains to everyone about her fight with Liz. She defended herself by saying that she thought Liz should distance herself from Dino given all the rumors about him.<\/p>\n<p>Alicia invites family and friends to her home. You may remember in episode 1 how the aunts thought the drive from Cranston to Providence was too long. Liz participates because their families have been friends for decades. Liz&#8217;s sister and Alicia&#8217;s mother are best friends. Lula arrives and finds out that her family has known Billy&#8217;s family for decades. Are you keeping up?<\/p>\n<p>The women start talking about how if Billy is going to get married, he wants Alicia to sign a prenuptial agreement. But that leaves her with nothing. Ashley and Liz want Alicia to talk to Billy about it. Alicia reveals how she manages the household finances now that Billy is out of work. She says she doesn&#8217;t like asking him for money.<\/p>\n<p>Alicia&#8217;s mother asks Lula if she is happily married. Lula replies, &#8220;Yes, but as you know, it&#8217;s never perfect.&#8221; Lula says she had a hard time getting over Brian&#8217;s affair. &#8220;I hope and pray you end up hurting him in some way,&#8221; Alicia&#8217;s mother said after giving her relationship advice. That drew a big laugh from the crowd.<\/p>\n<p>Liz heads to the marina to begin cleaning Jerry&#8217;s fishing boat, Gypsy, which she has decided to sell. Kelsey comes to help and the two start talking about the fight that happened at Jerry&#8217;s birthday party. Liz tells Kelsey that she was triggered by Kelsey hinting that there was some sort of &#8220;ongoing&#8221; inappropriate relationship between her and Dino. Kelsey says she may have said that because she had a different experience than Dino. The two dated, but it didn&#8217;t work out. Liz and Kelsey make up and move on.<\/p>\n<p>On the way to the Rail Explorers in Portsmouth, Rosie tells Lula, Kelsey, and Ashley that she has quit her job because she has developed colitis. She says she loved her medical leave so much that she never returned. Kelsey said in a confessional interview that she believed Rosie was fired because she had an affair with someone above her.<\/p>\n<p>After the train ride, the housewives have dinner and drinks around the bonfire. Rosie stirs the pot by bringing up a comment Alicia made about Liz. The comment was that Alicia sometimes feels like she has to walk on eggshells around Liz. The way Rosie spoke it sounded like Alicia was talking bad about Liz. That irritates Alicia. She accuses Rosie of twisting her words and calls her a troll for more than I can list here.<\/p>\n<p>Liz pulled Alicia aside and told her to calm down. She said that&#8217;s exactly how she overreacted at Jerry&#8217;s birthday party and regretted it the next day. But Alicia says she doesn&#8217;t regret the insults she showered on Rosie.<\/p>\n<p>Rosie then pulls Alicia aside to apologize and explain herself. They agree to get over it and hug. The other Housewives joke that it was record timing to resolve the conflict.<\/p>\n<p>Did you notice that Jo Ellen is not featured on this blog? She was away on a business trip. Don&#8217;t worry. She will face off against Brian Pontarelli in the next episode.<\/p>\n<p><em>Maggie&#8217;s blog, &#8220;Rhode to Reality,&#8221; is published every Sunday night after &#8220;The Real Housewives of Rhode Island&#8221; airs on Bravo.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>#road #reality #Drama #rails #episode #Real #Housewives #Rhode #Island<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dolores visits Liz at her home.
