Part one of an explosive three-part reunion begins, as the Potomac ladies come together for the first time since the altercation that divided the cast. The women host a fashion intervention for Gizelle, which isn't well received. Ashley confronts Candiace and Wendy about their "aggressive" behavior, which leads to a discussion of colorism within the cast. Karen questions the legitimacy of Gizelle's relationship, and Monique, armed with a binder of receipts - presents damning evidence to back up Karen's accusations.

The Season 5 Reunion concludes with an epic 90-minute finale. Candiace gathers herself after walking off-stage during the conversation surrounding the altercation and returns to face Monique. Ashley and Monique are accused of having a strategic relationship, and an emotional exchange takes place when Candiace questions Karen's loyalty. Things take a dramatic turn when the husbands join the stage - Chris Samuels comes in hot and demands accountability against the alleged "plot" against his family, and sets his sights on Gizelle.
