"Niko has been in my life for 18 years. I got him when he was a puppy. And basically, he's been my rock. And he's been there licking my tears when I'm sad and celebrating all the joys and wins."

Real Estate moves and team dynamics in Selling Sunset
Despite the emotional backdrop in Selling Sunset, the agents continue to handle high-stakes deals and professional challenges. Over a coffee, Chelsea and Emma discuss a new $30 million listing in Manhattan Beach, which remains the most expensive property on the market.
The episode also delves into the team dynamics, particularly during a memorial potluck for Niko. The gathering, intended as a show of support for Mary and Jason, is not without tensions. Bre's decision to bring a chef rather than homemade food has sparked debate and added to the ongoing interpersonal drama.
This incident makes things even worse between them, especially after a recent fight in which Bre talked about Chelsea's husband's cheating in public. Emma is on Chelsea's side, agreeing that Bre crossed a line talking about such a sensitive topic in public.
On the other hand, Chrishell confronts Chelsea about speaking to Bre and wants to hear both sides. She suggests that something is missing in the communication and is not taking any sides.
"I shouldn't even be in the middle. It's very confusing. When I sit and talk to her, she seems very clear on what she's saying. I just wanna support you and be there, and I know Bre knows that's my priority."
Meanwhile, Alanna strategically hires Damian as her project manager for a large landscaping project, demonstrating her determination to succeed within the group.
