So impressed with Stacey this episode. As a newbie she could easily have just sided with Karen for the sake of gaining an ally but she chose to challenge her about what she’d been told.
Jacqueline and Mia were insufferable. I used to find Mia’s OTT meddling ways entertaining but the glee and snark in her face as she went after Karen? Horrible.

I'm an episode behind, but I love this group.
The bunk bed room had me howling, Wendy reminding Jacqueline (who I can't help but adore) the trip is about her, Karen being a horror, and Mia deciding Stacey is boring, when she most certainly is not.
What a turn around, I would demote Ashley though, and promote Jac and Jassi haha.

Finally caught up on this season so far and I am pleasantly surprised at how much I love it. It feels light, funny and interesting. Ashley is not needed.
I'd say Ashley is actually the one minus point of this season. Personally, I can't stand Mia, but she's providing a driving factor that Ashley doesn't have anymore. I'm loving this new, refreshed Potomac.
This season is fantastic so far. This cast is basically perfect, Ashley is definitely the weak link but I can't quit on her quite yet. The confessional justifying her question about the scar because it related to Kiearna's makeup brand was a classic Darby reach.
Speaking of Kiearna, I guess I'm a lot warmer on her than the rest of you girls? I appreciate how deliberate she is with her words, it's apparent how questions are framed to her in her confessionals because she's careful to not be misinterpreted. She held her own against Mia just fine for my money, the latter is Evil this season but absolutely essential. Otherwise, Stacey is who I look forward to the most. She's fascinating, I feel like she's the type to actively take any bad faith question in good faith just to make the other person look bad.
Karen going to bed and collecting receipts just to bring Jacqueline to tears again was iconic. I'm glad Gizelle is back to being a great housewife but it cannot be stated enough how Mrs. Huger never stopped.
When I'm not paralyzed with election dread I might have the energy to explain in detail why Wendy's arc on Potomac is one of my favorites in the franchise but let me instead just say it's so nice to see her having a great time and not being iced out or having to defend herself against weird moving goal posts. She's grown as a housewife but it's also nice to see her finally get some respect from the cast at large.

Jacqueline's makeup when she was talking to Mia outside by the pool:
I'm stanning the Wendy and Gizelle friendship even though I know it's out of job security-related desperation.
It’s kind of funny that people thought Gizelle would lack this season without Robyn, but it’s truly Ashley that’s suffering the most from her absence since she doesn’t have that alliance to lean on and dominate the group with.
Stacey is just so light and adorable. And delusional! She's giving me Jenn from OC vibes and I stan.
