Gretchen and Slade are in Arizona for her friend Kelly's birthday and she praises him for being one of the "best things in her life" since losing Jeff.
He tells her that as soon as he spent time with her, he knew that he wanted to be with her and have kids. He talks about getting his vasectomy reversed and seems happy enough with her warning that she wants to have four children.
Meanwhile, Tamra stops by Jeana's house to see if she is coming to the La Perla party that she is hosting.
The conversation turns to the incident at St Regis and Tamra says she feels like Gretchen owes her an apology. Jeana thinks Tamra should apologize because she has no right to question someone else's relationship. She also informs her that Matt has been handed a DUI and that their divorce should be coming through anytime now.
Elsewhere, Alexis explains that her relationship with entrepreneur husband Jim is based on the idea that God comes first, their marriage comes second and their children (20-month-old twin daughters and 3-year-old son) come third. She says that her goal in life is to be the best mother and wife possible.
Jeana later decides to visit Vicki, who admits that she sensed a "weirdness" between them so decided to back away. She tells Jeana that she's too busy for drama and adds that she likes to "stir the pot and has become toxic" in her life. Jeana brands Vicki "a little insensitive to other people's problems".
Back in Arizona, Gretchen and Slade arrive at Kelly's birthday and Gretchen admits that it is fun going to an extravagant party because of their own financial situation. She adds that she feels ready to move on from Jeff's death and enjoy life again.
The next morning she admits that she is feeling worse for the wear but praises Slade for not judging her on failure or weakness, while Vicki and Tamra always try to tear her down. She adds that Slade wants nothing to do with either of them.
Tamra invites Alexis and her family over for a barbeque and admits that she is slightly jealous of the great relationship that Alexis and Jim have, saying they remind her of when she and Simon first married.
Over at Lynne's house it is moving day but her daughter Alexa seems unhappy that everyone has been so busy lately and she has been left alone. Lynne's husband reveals that he got "creamed" in the real estate market and Lynne adds that her business is what is keeping the family afloat.
That evening everyone gathers for the La Perla party. Gretchen is the first to arrive, followed by Alexis and Tamra, who admits she is nervous about facing Gretchen again. Alexis decides not to try on any lingerie because it is for Jim's eyes only, while Gretchen confesses she is only trying on things to avoid Tamra. The pair eventually bump into each other in the dressing room and appear to bury the hatchett.
Vicki is the last to arrive and meets Alexis for the first time. "Welcome to my world, crazy as it is!" she says. Alexis admits she is pleasantly surprised by her because of the stories she has been told, joking: "She didn't have fangs!" Vicki later says that she wants to be nicer this year and stop judging people.
Meanwhile, Jeana has skipped the party to spend time with her children at home. "I'm through with the housewives and all their drama," she says, insisting that her friendship with Vicki is "over, broken and will never be repaired". She also suggests that Tamra "likes being the mean girl", but praises Gretchen for always being a friend.
Jeana ends her time on the show by saying that she can still work 24/7 and raise an amazing family and now it is time for her to focus on herself, be the best she can be and look forward to the next step in her life.
Real Housewives Of Orange County continues next Thursday on Bravo.
