Erika was pissed. Erika said in a confessional that Tom ‘is in legal jeopardy and I cannot talk to him.’ She said if she was ever asked when was the last time she spoke to him that she had to be able to say the day she left.
‘Well, I do mind you saying that because I feel you are betraying my friendship, but please have your moment. Go ahead,’ Erika said.
Let me tell the story. Tom calls me all the time. I won’t take his call.’ She told Garcelle not to ‘sugarcoat’ the fact that she got her to reveal her personal info. Erika then glared enraged at Garcelle and then broke out crying.

‘There is only so much that I can take right now,’ Erika said as she got up sobbing and walked to the bathroom.
Garcelle then started crying and said she would have never shared with the women if Erika had told her not to. Crystal said it was a misunderstanding. Erika could be heard sobbing from behind the closed bathroom door.

‘This is never ending,’ said Kyle.

Erika said that she didn’t think the house was empty. She said she had already considered whether there was a whole other family living there or another woman. ‘I’ve thought of all of it,’ she said.
Kathy told her to call security and tell them that she travels a lot and forgot her house address. Kyle contacted a manager of her association to ask for the address. The women then left the house to go and play croquet. Kyle thought the game would be a good distraction for Erika. After the half hazard game, the women sat down in a circle to talk.
Kyle told them that she was expecting Garcelle to arrive at the house soon, but that she was going to be staying in the hotel. Lisa told the ladies that things with her and Garcelle were fine now. She said they are moving on and taking things one day at a time. Kyle asked Lisa if Garcelle started following her again on Instagram, but Lisa said she didn’t know because she didn’t check. Kyle said in a confessional that she did know that Garcelle still wasn’t following her or Lisa.
Garcelle arrived at the house wearing a PPE suit and a visor. She started jokingly using a handheld laser germ killer on Kyle’s house. She said in a confessional that ‘these b****es had covid I’m not walking in there without being prepared.’
