What happened in The Real Housewives of New York City season 15 episode 2
Sai talks to Jenna about Brynn
Sai had a conversation with Jenna about Brynn in The Real Housewives of New York City season 15 episode 2. Sai brought up the incident earlier in the season where she lost her cool and lasted out at Brynn calling her a "gaslighting narcissist".
Sai shared that she didn't mean to lose her temper that night, however, she was upset by the fact that Brynn was talking behind her back even when they were good friends and she was looking out for her. Explaining Sai's temper, Jenna said:
"I don't think you're bad for trying it. I think it's just like you didn't process it and so then it came out in a way that you couldn't manage. You came from a situation in your life where you... fought for everything... respect. Everything you've gotten, you've had to fight for it and you're guarded and she's guarded too."
Sai told Jenna she tried to reach out to Brynn to clear things up, but Brynn wasn’t responding. Sai mentioned that she apologized in the group chat and even sent Brynn a personal text.
The episode shared the text message Brynn shared in the group chat while standing up for herself. The text read:
"I don't scream or yell; I won't bash you in the press. No no, not my style. I'm far, far too elegant and smart for that ... Someone who tried to f*** with me once called carbon monoxide. Invisible, odorless, and sucks the very life out of you before you even have the chance to realize it."
Jenna then suggested to Sai that she should be "soft" with Brynn and talk things out.
Erin clear things out with Brynn
Later in episode 2 of The Real Housewives of New York City, season 15, Erin and Brynn sat down to discuss and clear up last week's dinner incident. Erin tried to open up and apologize for the things she said to her during their group dinner meeting.
Erin then shifted the conversation to the comments she made about Brynn eight months ago on her SiriusXM radio interview. In the interview, one of the hosts asked Erin if someone was helping Brynn financially. While she responded with a "no", she later indirectly agreed with the host who thought that Brynn had someone for financial support.
Erin apologized to Brynn about the incident and agreed that she should have stopped the conversation sooner.
Erin later attended a lunch date with Abe and confronted her husband about selling their bitcoins without her knowledge. She shared that she wanted the money and when she checked their account their balance was nil. The Real Housewives of New York City star asked her husband if he needs to treat her like a partner and be open with her.
The episode ended with Rebecca, Racquel, and Brynn's helicopter ride where they detailed the things that had been going on in their life.
