Meanwhile, at the Hamptons Ramona hires a good looking Russian swim coach to help her overcome her fear of water because she wants to finally learn how to swim so she can retire her pool nooddles. In the city Sonja is adjusting to her new apartment and finishing the decor. Dorinda has also hired a coach and has been running daily in an attempt to live a healthier lifestyle. She has yet to address the tension between her and Luann and fix the situation among them.

Her departure is even ruder than the way she acted towards the host - she didn't stay any longer than 20 minutes at the clambake. Back in the city, Dorinda and Barbara have a heart to heart because Barbara never invited her to the clambake because of the status of her relationship with Luann. Barbara explains that she is doing her best to protect and help Luann who is still in a delicate situation. Bethenny continues her relief work after Hurricane Florence flooding devastated South Carolina and flies to the location to help.
