Host Meredith recaps The Real Housewives of New Jersey season 4, episodes 14 (“Pack Your Baggage,” released July 29, 2012) and 15 (“If This RV Is Rocking”) as the cast travels to Northern California/Napa for an RV trip amid a New Jersey hurricane that forces a long rerouted journey. The women pack glam for camping, the group spends heavily at Camping World, and Teresa is mocked for wearing heels while struggling with diarrhea. At the beach RV park, Teresa confronts Kathy about cookbook recipes, then Teresa and Melissa talk on the beach about Teresa clashing with multiple people and wanting to rebuild their relationship for Joe Gorga. In episode 15 they surf, Teresa injures her ankle, the group plays Truth or Dare, Lauren fights with her brothers about Albie’s girlfriend moving in, and after more trip shenanigans Teresa and Jacqueline privately discuss their issues and hug, agreeing to try to restore their friendship while Caroline predicts Jacqueline will be hurt again.
