"They're still reeling from the failure of their business with Whitney blaming Justin for taking them down the MLM rabbit hole. She resents him and is mad at herself for trusting him. Part of the reason this show is a success is that the women at its center understand that the secret formula is brutal honesty. Whereas lesser Housewives try to present the best version of themselves and hide the embarrassing skeletons in their closets,"
"Take Bronwyn's relationship with her mother, for example, the messy details of which she's shared over the course of the season. In fact, all of this focus on that relationship feels like deliberate exposure therapy to help me get over my fear of Muzzy. But to her credit, this scene - in which Bronwyn takes her to a sex shop to buy pride flags to protest Utah's law banning them in government buildings - is Muzzy at her best."
Bronwyn greets Todd at the airport in an inflatable sloth costume, despite his prior infidelity and his typically stern demeanor, suggesting a tentative step toward reconciliation. Whitney sits on her back porch and wrestles with the collapse of a business, blaming Justin for drawing them into an MLM scheme while resenting her own trust. The cast consistently practices brutal honesty, exposing failed businesses and personal embarrassments rather than presenting polished images. Bronwyn's fraught relationship with her mother continues to surface, culminating in an unusual protest outing to buy pride flags and prompting emotional growth.
