What to expect from this week's episode of RHOC?

Season 17 of RHOC has aired several drama-packed episodes over the past few weeks. The cast members have returned with numerous pressing issues and concerns in their bags and take no time to address all of them. The upcoming episode will become the background for several fresh concerns that will be brought up for discussion.

The official synopsis of the episode, titled You Can't DB Serious, reads:

"Tamra takes the women to a ranch in Montana; tensions arise when Heather learns that her career is being dissected; Gina makes a point to connect with Jenn; Emily helps her daughter Annabelle with her aspiring modelling career."

A few preview clips of the upcoming RHOC episode teased what fans can expect. Emily was seen spending time with her daughter Annabelle and enrolling her in a modeling agency. Anabelle posed for a few shots, following which, they interviewed for a brief time. Emily expressed that she was ready to commit to her daughter's career and confessed to wanting to give her a better life.

Meanwhile, the ladies were seen preparing for their trip to Montana, hosted by Tamra. While the latter shopped for their visit to the dude ranch with Heather and Jennifer, Gina was joined in a different shop by Shannon and Emily. Shannon expressed that although Tamra had apologized for her outburst towards her on the boat, she didn't want to sweep things under the rug this time around.

The RHOC ladies also discussed Jennifer's alleged cheating scandal. The previous episode saw Emily confront her for not setting the timeline of her divorce from ex-husband Will Pedranti and her new relationship with boyfriend Ryan, indicating that she potentially cheated on Will.

Gina, for her part, expressed her issues with Jennifer trying to justify her alleged infidelity, and in the preview clip, confessed that she was angry towards her castmate as it triggered her. The star revealed that she was trying to get her ex-husband's felony charges dropped. She further said:

"Hearing Jenn casually talk about this thing that she did that has horrible effects on so many people is a really happy pill to swallow."

Another preview clip saw the RHOC cast members spend time at the dude ranch in Montana. They rode the mechanical bull and had some well-needed fun.
