Mia invites everyone to Lake Norman, where she lived after high school because Inc. was transferred to the Lake Norman radio station, thus cementing her love of Lake Norman and her status as LN’s queen. The trip quickly turns into Wendy’s 40th birthday celebration, and everyone agrees that it is a snooze.

Also a snooze? New to the group Stacey. Stacey’s storyline centers around leaving her post as a QVC personality and getting separated from her husband while she sees “a friend” who she definitely wants to marry but definitely will not have sex with until she does.

Mia speaks for the group when she shares with Karen that Stacey is “not that interesting.” Gizelle pulls a housewife first by leaving the trip for 12 hours to go to her daughters’ cap and gown ceremony. Karen’s drinking is questioned, and Ashley is now healing and thriving to EDM beats.

Being a gracious hostess is an art. The first step is knowing whether you are the hostess or not, and Charrisse Jackson and Karen Huger have not passed that test. However, Karen, who left a personalized gift basket in each woman’s room and arranged a sunset dinner on the lawn, might be the more dedicated of the two hostesses.
