Stormi arrives with gifts but Destiny’s not interested.

The episode begins with Destiny being angry during her Madonni grand re-opening. Destiny is furious as Stormi, her husband, and Stormi’s mother pull up. Destiny tells her team to let Stormi know she can’t come in.

However, Melneka convinces Destiny to reconsider and Stormi comes in with her family with gifts. Destiny says the gifts were even more annoying than her showing up without an invite. Stormi gifted Destiny with a Gucci purse and flowers. In her interview, Destiny says Stormi isn’t allowing her to sell Stormi’s products in the store. Kimmi and LaTisha are hopeful this gesture will allow Destiny to put her guard down and have a sit down with Stormi.

Meanwhile, Stormi tells Melody and Maurice that she’s willing to sit down for a talk with Destiny. The lone holdout in a potential talk is Destiny. Kimmi and LaTisha get the sense Destiny isn’t going to squash beef with Stormi any time soon.

Melody arrives and Destiny’s furious.

Things for Destiny get worse when Melody arrives at the event with Vanessa.

Destiny is annoyed when Melody and Vanessa enter the building. Melody and Martell hug one another and are cordial. The event continues and Destiny does all she can to avoid Melody. Melody and Stormi catch up and Stormi lets her know about what happened. Meanwhile, Destiny vents to her father who tells her not to stoop to Melody’s level.

As Melody and Stormi talk, the camera pans to Melneka who is talking to Destiny and others at the checkout counter. Melody learns Wanda is serving food at the event and decides to approach and address Wanda about what was said about her baby on social media.

Meanwhile, Vanessa and Martell talk about Melody inviting him to her family vacation. Vanessa’s happy that Melody and Martell are working on their co-parenting relationship for the sake of the children.

When Melody walks out, Destiny runs out to yell at Melody about speaking the next time she comes back. This leads to a short shouting match between the two. Producers flash back to Melody speaking to Destiny when she first entered the store. Destiny and Vanessa exchange words. A shouting match ensues between Melody and Wanda.

As LaTisha goes to check on Destiny, Melody hops on Instagram Live. Melody was told by a producer to cut it short as they were filming. Melody confronts Bernard and Wanda for things that were said on social media. A shouting match ensues between Melody and Wanda with Vanessa looking on.

LaTisha and Martell try to get in between as onlookers come outside.

Wanda says in her interview that she got the idea from Martell’s interview with Dr. Heavenly. In the video, Martell accused Melody of cheating on him. Wanda responds to Melody, yelling to find Suga Mama’s baby daddy. The two almost get physical as Martell, Bernard and others have to separate them. After they separate, Marsau advises LaTisha to not get involved. Marsau knows Martell hasn’t had the best time holding his temper so he knows things could go left quickly.

His senses are correct as Wanda is still amped up. She claims Suga Mama looks like another man Melody was allegedly involved with. Melody, meanwhile, is still outside yelling her thoughts to a crowd that surrounded her.

Finally, Melody gets into the car as Martell discusses what happened with LaTisha and Marsau. Marsau says the kids and parents should be off-limits. This includes LaTisha’s dad who Melody claimed was in her IG DMs. This leads Melody to get out of the car. Suddenly, Melody’s yelling out at LaTisha and Marsau about Wanda’s antics when Wanda came outside to escalate the altercation further.

Wanda approaches from behind and seemingly appears to swing at the Holts. As Maurice pulls away Wanda, Martell’s grabbed by a producer. LaTisha’s shocked as Destiny yells out that they all made a mockery of her event.

Things escalate even further with Martell putting his hands on Maurice.

This entire confrontation puts Martell in a tough spot as he’s rebuilding his relationship with LaTisha and Marsau. Meanwhile, Wanda says she’s standing firm in what she told Melody regarding finding Suga Mama’s real baby daddy. Melody says Martell is the father.

This situation gets tougher as Marsau and Maurice end up having a tense conversation with Martell about all of this. Things escalate and Martell pushes Maurice. Stormi’s husband and producers have to get in the middle of them and Marsau is furious. They have to be forcibly separated and Destiny puts Martell in Melody’s car.

The episode ends with the producers shutting everything down as the police arrive.

  1. I think this show has run its course. Wanda has been talking about the Holt kids for like 3 years now. Melody finally responds, and now the gaslighting begins. The first time she mocked their black hair and features. But as usual, Wanda’s actions are being downplayed by the Scotts and the Holts are being blamed like always. This is why the show sucks so much now. One group of people (The Scotts) continue to be messy and get away with everything because they outnumber the other cast members. Why even watch when the outcome is always the same? They are never held accountable. I’ll be watching RHOP.

  2. Wanda has been harassing Melody, her mother, and children online unchecked for years, but Melody finally reacts at an event she and all cast members were invited, and now the new narrative is Melody is the troublemaker who caused all of this. Yeah, I’m good on this show now. Mel should leave and let this show flop without her. It’s not like the Scotts know how to carry this show without the Holts anyway.

  3. This episode was disgraceful. These grown adults don’t know how to act in public. Fighting and getting rowdy.. straight shenanigans and nonsense. 🤦🏽‍♀️And Wanda is the catalyst. All these people go on social media and talk garbage. Destiny was acting immature and juvenile with both Stormi and Melody. Here Stormi is trying to resolve conflict and be generous and she’s got an attitude. Craziness. The same with Melody.. the fact that she came to support your reopening was kind. Even if, she didn’t want them there she could’ve been more gracious and kept her attitude in check. They weren’t hurting her by being there. What Melneka said is true.. Caucasian people will hate your guts and take your money and you’ll never know how they feel. Finally, Wanda needs to stop discussing people’s children. That’s always going to be a hot button. If Tisha and Marsau can’t understand that then they’re delusional. But, under no circumstances is it appropriate to put your hands on anyone. If you can’t have a civil conversation then you need to take your leave and keep it moving. I’m not ending up with a case over nonsense and shenanigans. I’m sure this episode brought good ratings but to me it was disgraceful, immature and embarrassing. And, I never want my people portrayed like this. It’s super disappointing and sad. 😟

    1. Facts so true I use to love the show but we as black people is our own worst enemy. Tisha I use to love and felt sorry for because her husband how he talks and treated her. My mom couldn’t never be on a show and do what her mom does. Wanda needs to go and tisha need to stop crying all the darn time. Density looked stupid I see why her husband played her. The Holts was the only reason I watched it.

  4. Ms. Wanda is a disaster. Latisha is just as messy as her mother but no one holds her accountable for her actions. Marsau is arrogant and only defends Latisha’s foolishness when it’s involving Melody and her mom. I’m not sure what his issue is with Mel. Destiny is ignorant, insecure, and childish. Kimmi tries to stay neutral but she needs to help Latisha, her friend, take some accountability for her part in situations. They just need to stop paying Tiffany because where is she, nobody is that busy in Huntsville. I hate Melody let them take her out of character but accusations about the paternity of someone’s child are classless and unforgivable. I would have checked Tisha and her mama. Tisha was on the other side of the tracks with her mama, don’t forget that. Martell just needs a check and is jealous that Melody is making it without him. He wants custody to try and break her and to get those child support checks. He is a narcissist, no one lose sight of that. Mental illness is real!

  5. For me 1 characteristic of being grown is knowing when you should stay outta certain situations. Mel showed up because she contractually obligated just like stormi but stormi came with malice. That was no authenticity at all. Im so over outburst at public events its deplorable. At least Mel and Destiny have some history stormi just messy and looking for camera time. If she really wanted to dead the beef then why not contact before or better yet just accept that Destiny dont want it. Ive stopped watching as much since tiffani and stormi have appeared they bring nothing but pettiness but thats what bring people to it I guess.
