All language subtitles for The.Real.Housewives.of.New.York.City.S13E14

Previously on The Real Housewives of New
York City.

So yesterday I found out about the DNA
stuff with Ashley.

It was hard.

I'm going to meet with a geneticist to
find my dad.

I mean, your dad's alive.

No, that's what's crazy.

I do actually have a guy in mind. He has
a whole brand. He said you're a

Francophile, which made me think of him.
That sounds freaky.

Last night, I had a problem sleeping
because tomorrow is my serious date.

With marriage material.

I think you should focus on the marriage
material. Forget about the toy boy.

It's a very competitive business, real
estate, obviously.

Well, I'm a competitive person. Yeah,
and that's good. We'll start working on

some open houses.

And I'll keep studying.

So I'm going to do an event next week.

It's actually called Black Shabbat. Then
why are you calling it Black Shabbat?

Because the guests I'm inviting are
black.

Why do you have to say whether they're
white, black, purple, yellow, or red? Of

all my vices, being glamorous is one
I'll never give

up.

I'm sex positive and BS negative.

I may say the wrong thing, but my
intentions are always right.

I've had to work twice as hard for half
as much, but now I'm coming for

everything.

Just like New York City, Sonia Morgan
never goes out of style.

Angel, you're a little Jewish chihuahua.

You are.

Yes.

Oh, my God, my little girl.

My little girl.

Baruch atah Adonai.

Eloheinu.

Melech. Oh, God.

Oh, my God. It's weird looking at myself
in this. I don't like it because it

looks like my hair is the same color as
my face, and it's, like, making me feel

like I look bald. Anyway.

Stop.

So I'm looking at my prayer book and
practicing the prayer with the lights

Shabbat. But, like, Hebrew is really
hard.

It's like a... You know, you do all this
stuff, and it doesn't feel so, like,

feminine, so I feel, like, weird doing
it because I'm like... Hebrew is...

actually a beautiful language when it's
spoken by someone who knows how to speak

it.

It's going to take time. And I'm hanging
my mezuzah today.

It's beautiful.

Do you see mine?

Yeah.

Pretty.

I didn't mean to get such a giant
mezuzah, but the bigger the better.

Totally.

Big mezuzah energy, baby. Me and me. The
bigger the mezuzah, the less insecure I

feel about converting.

So, hey.

I can't wait to meet her.

It's so funny.

I told her that you want to, you know,
read some of the prayers and things

during Shabbat. Yeah, well, just the
candles.

I am really excited about Black Shabbat.
And I'm really honored to share this

opportunity with Leah. Because she has
been so committed and disciplined in her

studies of Judaism. And I'm really proud
of her. And I'm excited for her to

share that with the women.

Let me go practice my prayers now.

You're going to be great, baby.

Thank you. Love you. Talk to you later.
Bye.

Come in.

Hey. Hey.

Where should I put my coat? I'll take
it. We'll just put it in the kitchen.

right. Are you ready for this? Yeah,
because actually I researched some more

things. Okay. So my client, Jordan, is
coming up. All right. I think you did

great before. The only thing you just
got to remember, and it's sometimes hard

because we all get disoriented in the
apartment, is, you know, which way is

north, which way is south. No, I know. I
know this is west. I know.

That's north and that's south. Perfect.
But in the bedroom, I got confused.

Because when you face it, it's the East
River.

And I was thinking, was that way meaning
that way? But it wasn't that way. I

don't have my real estate license yet.
I've just been taking the 75 -hour

course. I just took my test.

Like, after every few chapters, I have
to take a quiz, and I got 81.

Out of 100, right?

Well, yeah.

I'm three quarters of the way through.

But I definitely want to get my feet wet
and show off that I have what it takes.

Oh, he's here. Is he ready?

I was born ready.

Hello. Hi.

Hi. How are you? What's up? How are you?
Can I give you a hug? I guess no.

Yeah. That's okay.

How are you?

Hi there. Hey, I'm Ramona. How are you?
Are you a pleasure?

A pleasure.

I'm so excited you came in over the
bridge. No, not over the bridge because

you're in Connecticut.

That's still a bridge. Still a bridge.
We're on an island. Yeah, exactly.

Let's just start with the presence of
how you just walk into an apartment. You

start with this long hallway with our
beautiful 12 -feet ceiling.

I am really looking forward to doing
real estate.

I've already sold my New York City
apartment, renovated Southampton, so I

something else. I just like being busy
and I like making money.

Now this says it all. Let's just take
this in. Let's not even say a word. This

view is amazing. Right now, you're
facing...

You don't get views like this. This is
amazing.

I'm talking.

Sorry, I didn't mean to hit him. I feel
like we won't do that much during show.

No physical abuse during shows. I'm
supposed to be talking. You should be

He's a friend of the client.

You're not even close. I have him in my
mood. Okay, I'm sorry. I'm going to be

quiet. I'm not like a wishy -washy
person. If I'm going to show an

with millions of dollars, I'm taking
command.

And you have this wraparound, three
sides of glass.

And they're able to achieve this because
all these supports are outside on the

terrace. I can always do floor plans for
you to fit your lifestyle.

Maybe you have a baby grand. We'll show
you how that can fit in. Of course I do.

That's how you entertain. Of course I
do. So this is the primary bathroom.

All these windows. I got a little
vertigo looking out. I got a little

whoa.

The cabinets are actually Italian glass,
handmade.

Down here is your washer and dryer and
your garbage disposal.

Trash chute. The trash shoe. That's the
disposal.

Right. I mean, that's the disposal.

Garbage. Now's the time to hit him.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

No, but thank you. It bothers me when
he's correcting me because it means I'm

not perfect. So, I want to be perfect,
Michael.

This is like indoor -outdoor living.
Totally. Yeah, it's fabulous. You could

have 40 people. Totally.

And it's not one of those scary
terraces. And wait, remember, terraces.

the roof deck, too. Oh, yeah, that's
true also.

That's amazing. Yeah. With her shoes. I
tell her not to wear these shoes. No, I

can do everything. I love those shoes.
Okay. I told you, I can run. She needs

those little...

All those little brown things that go at
the bottom.

No, I'm fine with these shoes. Don't
scuff the floors. Oh, sorry.

Sorry. Sorry.

Michael doesn't realize that my shoes
have rubber bottoms, so I'm not ruining

the floors.

But I'm not going to correct him in
front of the client.

She's doing well, right? She's doing...
You're good, right? Can I tell you

something? Are you intimidated? I want
people to be intimidated by her.

She's smart and she knows everything.
And everyone.

You're very assertive. You're very
confident. That's why I can't get a

boyfriend.

But who cares? You'll sell ten
apartments a month. A wife -boyfriend?

Carrie James.

Mommy's had a day, honey.

Coming!

Okay.

Hi! You're not afraid of dogs, are you?
Oh, not at all. Come on in. Nice to meet

you. Nice to meet you.

Hey, come on in, crazy.

So cute. Don't mind her. Let me take
your coat and purse. I appreciate it.

has a job I'd never heard of before.
She's a genetic investigator.

She's able to literally use my DNA to
trace backwards from that and identify

father. All right. Well, thanks for
getting a hold of me. I'm really excited

about that. Oh, I was so excited to find
you because I don't know.

hardly anything about my family tree or
any of it. My mom's amazing, but I'm an

only child and don't really have all the
answers around the paternity situation.

And the one lead I had was a beautiful,
wonderful woman named Ashley, grown up

thinking and being told I was her
sister.

Unfortunately, got the news that it's
not a match.

Blood -wise, it doesn't support that we
are sisters.

I wanted that so badly.

I felt like I had my family, you know?

A bitch can only go through so much. You
know, this has been a lot.

A lot of disappointment, a lot of
heartache. And if Linda and this doesn't

I'm going to just call it a wrap.

I have done Ancestry. Great. Any big
reveals?

No big reveals at all. No first cousins
at all. Okay. Here, actually, I can show

it to you. Yeah, no, I'd love to see.
Nothing rang.

So, this person.

Who is this?

You don't know? No. Okay, that's good.
That's a close match.

Okay. I have no idea who that is. Or
this.

Oh. I don't know who that is either.
Okay, this is great.

Really? Yes. So wait, what are you going
to do?

You're going to reach out to these two?
Well, no. Actually, what I'll do is

first do a clustering analysis.

When you do a clustering analysis and
all of your DNA matches, it should show

you four clusters.

two clusters for your maternal side and
then the same for the paternal side and

then between those two clusters you're
looking to find an individual from you

know the first two clusters is going to
have a union with an individual from the

second two clusters which is then going
to be your dad oh that's so crazy yeah

oh my god yeah it's remarkable there is
a part of me that's excited because

linda's great but i also know this is
like a shot in the dark You have good

matches, so possibly you could have
siblings and cousins, have cousins and

stuff. Listen, if I could find out just
anything that gives me a bigger sense, a

broader sense of who I am, you know what
I mean? So how long are we thinking? It

could be in a week, maybe less. What?
Yeah.

Wow. I work fast.

Oh, my God, Linda. Oh, my gosh. So I
might know additional family by

Oh, that would be the best. I would like
to do that for you.

Insane. I'm excited. Can I get a hug?
Thank you.

Coming up.

I had back surgery.

Oh, my gosh.

If you think of it just like a jelly
donut.

Okay. When it herniates, the jelly comes
out.

Oh, yuck.

Hello. Hello. I'm Brad.

Nice to meet you. I'm Sonia.

I've never had a matchmaker before, so.

I seem rusty. It's because I've never
done this. I've never done it either.

Well, I'm glad you came. I'm really
excited to meet you.

Do you remember when I told you I had
someone in mind?

Right. I did bring you a picture.

He's adorable!

with this loafer? Yep.

Can I get a Bloody Mary?

Bloody Mary? Perfect.

Actually, I'll have a virgin Bloody
Mary. That sounds great. I know our

pictures look different than we do in
person, but first impression, I remember

Bradley being taller, fitter.

I guess I focused on the loafers too
much, but I'm looking for a partner.

So I'm just going to be quiet and see
what he has to say.

Let him work his magic.

Is that bacon?

It's bacon. Oh, way to a woman's heart.

How about bacon?

Don't you love bacon?

Grew up on bacon. My grandmother made
bacon every weekend.

I love it.

There's nothing wrong with it. I don't
read the report.

Fake news.

It's healthy for you.

Post that the grandparents lived to
their 90s. Cheers.

We're bonding over food.

Great. We have found common ground.

What do you feel like?

I do like oysters. I see oysters.

They're naked. I don't know what that
means.

Aren't they all naked?

I've never seen one dressed.

This is one of my favorite restaurants.
It's a block from my house.

I live in Chelsea.

When I was in college, I lived down
there. But it wasn't the sexy Chelsea it

now when I was in college.

Yeah. I rarely go downtown.

I didn't really come up there.

You know, Helen Gurley Brown said you
have to live within 10 blocks to really

make it. So that's a strike.

So I will have the oysters.

Six, please.

I'm going to try the pastrami salmon
carpaccio.

Thank you very much. Smart.

What kind of business do you do?

I lease retail space for a living. Oh,
okay.

Markets have been decimated.

I was just going to say, that's the
other side of the coin.

It really wasn't great before the
pandemic.

The market had started to come down. My
business is online, so that's very busy.

What business?

Fashion. Fashion, shoes, perfume.

I'm exhausted.

I'm working all the time.

My office closed on March 13th. Okay.
Then I had back surgery.

Oh, my gosh.

So you've been through the ringer. It
was my fourth.

What happened?

Skiing or tennis?

No, basically just have a bad spine.

I had two laminectomies.

If you think of a disc like a jelly
donut.

Okay. When the hernia, the jelly comes
out. Oh, yuck.

It's not the sexiest thing to hear on a
date, but maybe I can tell him I have

gas. I don't know.

Thank you. You're welcome.

Bon appetit.

Do you know the South of France?

I do. Do you know where Moujane is?

Yeah. I bought a house there.

Perfect. I hear a house south of France.
Oh, that's great.

It was a beautiful house.

I just wasn't using it enough. So I sold
a month and a half ago.

Huh.

Sold.

There's another strike.

Well, this was fun.

Yeah, this was a good idea.

Is there anything else that I can get
for you? No, I'm good, thanks.

It's like you read my mind, we weren't
going to have dessert.

There's a lot of hit or misses during
this date, but it's so naive to think

it's love at first sight when you're
looking for Mr. Right.

Should we walk this way? Sure, let's
take a walk down here and get some fresh

air. At least I'm on a first date, I'm
headed in the right direction, and I'm

willing to give it a chance.

Bye.

Thank you, that was really nice. It was
so much fun.

Really good.

I'm going to see you again, I hope. We
will.

What do you think, Ashley?

This one?

Or this one?

I'm not sure.

Who knows? Let me call Lou.

All right, please tell me what a Shabbat
is. The Jewish holy day.

This? Or is this too Christmas?

Very low -cut, but yeah, you're right.
It's a religious holiday.

Hey, Lou. How are you, honey?

I'm good. I'm good. So I'm pulling my
outfits for Ebony's Black Seda dinner.

You called it Black Sabbath dinner.

Right? I mean, I hope she's not going to
get on a soapbox and start preaching to

us. She said it's going to be fun.

Yeah. So, listen, I'm going to support
her. So, you know what? Why not?

Yeah. All right, honey. Well, listen,
I'll see you soon. Yeah, I'll see you

soon.

Oh, lookie. We get a FaceTime.

Hey, baby.

Hi.

Carrie says hi.

So, I have some news.

I was exposed to COVID.

Wait, what?

Yeah. I'm so concerned with you, but
selfishly, I'm so sad about Shabbat.

No, I'm, like, about to, like, cry,
actually.

I'm really so sad. My girl, Leah, has
worked so hard in her conversion efforts

and this damn pandemic.

Of course. Yeah, I'll bring my laptop
and everything.

Of course. Do you still want to do the
blessing for the candles?

I think that's good.

Leah, wait. You're going to leave me
with these bitches to do Black Shabbat

by myself?

No, I mean, I'm going to be there on
Zoom with you.

Thank God.

Leah, I love you. I'm so selfishly sad,
but I want you to feel okay.

Love you, too.

Okay, bye.

Bye.

Oh, freaking A.

Coming up.

My best friend, Michael Lorber, he's
Jewish, so I know a little bit, but not

lot. And of course, every Schicksal has
had a Jewish boyfriend once or twice.

Right?

Thank you, sir.

I appreciate it. Have a good night.

Thank you so much.

I'm excited.

Okay.

See, I'm so talented.

Shabbat shalom, gorgeous.

Oh, you look stunning.

I'm ready to shabbat shalom. Thanks. I'm
going to open this champagne.

Thank you.

Sunny, I thought you did now. Thank you,
my love. Shabbat shalom.

Beautiful.

I just want you to know. Yes, my dear. I
don't just do this for anybody.

Thank you. I had to travel.

I had to travel. We're coming to New
Jersey. And wait, and I had to travel 30

minutes to get on this lovely bus. I'm
going to go to the Hamptons. An hour and

a half. Let's just go to the Hamptons
for dinner. Well, hello, ladies.

Hello.

Yes. You brought another one.

Shabbat shalom.

Shabbat shalom.

Shabbat shalom. Shabbat shalom.

Dunny, it's with you. Life is a cabaret.

Oh, my God. This is great. This is
great, right?

Where's Leah?

Leah, sadly, was exposed potentially to
COVID.

Oh, no.

I think she's fine. She doesn't want to
expose us. No, I don't want to be

exposed. I feel really bad for Leah
because, honestly, I wanted this to be a

part of our bonding that she is
converting and Ebony is into it. I don't

think Luann and Ramona were dying to do
this. So, yeah, I'm not happy that

Leah's not going to be here in person.

Oh, this is good.

So tell us about tonight. We are doing
some things. It's going to be fun. Is

this hummus?

Yeah, it's hummus. Oh, good. I love
hummus. Thank you. Of course. Thank you

remembering. I always give us hummus,
cheese, veggies.

You guys are going to be three of my
good friends.

They are black Ramona. Wait, wait, what
are you doing? Nibbling on the cheese

and covering it up? No, no. Like a
mouse?

No, this is Luann's. I ate that. I ate
that. I ate that.

Okay, so three black friends and one
white Jewish friend. Got it. Okay, got

And then the laptop will literally be at
Leah's place. What laptop? My laptop.

So Leah can join us via Zoom.

That's kind of weird. She wanted to. She
wants to still do her blessings over

the camera. Lana just needs to wrap her
head around it. Because she's been

practicing, you know, for her own
conversions. It's one thing when someone

something and everyone's on Zoom, but
when eight people are at a big table and

we're all talking and looking at each
other's faces and then one other person

here, it's just a weird dynamic. I'm
sorry. Oh, my God. Hey, baby. Hi, honey.

miss you.

Aw. What are you doing?

I'm going to get dressed now. No. mesh
for Shabbat Shalom. You only have to

dress from the waist up.

You can wear like your underwear and no
socks.

Okay, we'll see you soon. Bye, baby.

Bye.

So cute. That was funny.

All right, girls, we're here.

Welcome to Summit. Awesome.

All right, girls, you ready? I'm trying.

Let's go. Should we take something from
the Sperna van? Do you want to bring

champagne or anything?

You have champagne?

I'll bring the Pinot Grigio. Thank you
so much. It doesn't matter.

Nobody cares. I could bring the Crudité,
but Ebony bought that for us. Oh, my

God. Look at the snow.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

I got you.

New Jersey for like five minutes and
Luann's already trying to whack me with

snowball. Wait, let me get Ramona.

Get Ramona, yes, she can handle it.

Thank you.

Thanks. What happened? What'd I do?

Just got hit by a snowball.

off the chain already.

You are off the chain. So are you,
Morgan.

Archie!

Archie! Oh my god, we're twins! You
brought your mom, Archie!

Amazing! Hi!

This is Luann. Luann, Archie. Hi, how
are you? Nice to meet you.

I'm so happy you're here. Ramona.

Hi, Ramona.

Archie, thank you for having us. She's
so cool.

My dear friend, Sonia. Hi, sweetie.

We're both wearing silver. I wasn't sure
what to wear.

I'm so happy you guys are here. Oh, my
God. Thank you. Thank you so much. And

thank you. Thank you so much. There's
another bottle. I'll follow you. Okay,

we'll put this in. I'll go to the
kitchen.

All right.

Oh, my God. What fun.

Liliana, we're going to take your coats.

Okay, you guys take those. Thank you.

It's going to be fun.

Actually, you know what?

That's far enough. We took everything
off the RV, basically.

We're a hot mess. Did you really?

really good stuff on rv let's do
introductions i'm so rude

brian

and i

travel to israel together along with
lenara and then there's dion who's

brilliant and all three of these amazing
friends of mine share in the commitment

to advancing a black excellence this
looks beautiful

Oh, you're going to explain everything.
The bread, everything.

I'm going to explain everything. My best
friend, Michael Lorber, he's Jewish, so

I know a little bit, but not a lot. Of
course, every sixes had a Jewish

boyfriend once or twice.

Right? Is that a margarita?

Oh, thank you so much.

Where do we put Miss Leah?

Where's Leah? Miss Leah is right here.

Perfect. Oh, my God. She is missing the
best man. She's going to be so sad.

This is spectacular.

Archie, I love you so much for doing
this.

Archie runs an organization called
Jubilon.

And Jew Belong is all about, you get it,
Jew belong.

Everybody belongs.

She actually hosted a Shabbat dinner for
black members of the leadership

community of New York. And she wanted to
hear our story.

Mona, come over here. I see the bread to
bless with the candles, right? You like

the candles, but the bread. Oh, honey,
yes. Oh, honey, yes. I have a lot of

Jewish bread. It's gorgeous.

It's very eclectic and very modern
looking and very unusual, and I kind of

it.

You're funny. Keep saying you might. I
know, I know, I know.

Ramona, look at the size of her napkins.

These are the best freaking napkins.

No, they're not.

Yes, this is a place. I made those
napkins.

I could make this like a halter or
something.

Aren't they the best?

This is the tip of the iceberg with
Ramona, and I know that. Picking on the

napkins as too big, it's only going to
get worse from here.

You don't really think they're the best,
do you? No, they're very interesting.

But you don't match any napkins. I don't
want to match them, but the same with

the plays. I get that. You are a rebel.

Look, nothing matches.

I don't want it to match. I understand.
You like to do your own path.

You beat your own drummers.

Yeah.

Okay, we shouldn't drink anymore. I'm
getting a little buzzed. Yeah, I am too.

I'm talking too much.

Coming up.

I've been really worried about the
relationship between the black and

community. But Italian and Jews have a
lot in common, too.

Sorry?

Well, hello.

When you said Archie was wearing
sequins, I thought Archie was a guy.

You and Archie and all the women. Okay.
I'm sorry. Miss Sonia just met my dear

friend Devin, who was a matchmaker. She
just met Sonia with a wonderful man who

we're going to hear about tonight at
dinner. They went on a date, y 'all,

past weekend. Maybe we should just talk
about it now and not at dinner. Can we?

Because I have a couple of girlfriends
with me who like to recycle.

They do like some Recycle D.

No, they do.

They just even removed Luann and Ramona.
From the conversation, when I married

my ex -husband, we put the wedding
invitation out. No one even knew we were

dating.

I liked it. People didn't even know he
was still alive, actually.

Because my husband is already 90 now, my
ex -husband.

Keep that man under wraps.

There's always going to be someone
trying to trip you up. Unless you're

you just roll down that aisle anyhow.

First of all, Ebony spent a lot of time
with me getting to know who I am. We're

both introverts. Sonia and I both are
introverts. Who's an introvert?

We recharge

in solitude. Honestly, I want to tell
you, Alita said we're extroverted

introverts. Because when we're out, we
do show our love by being extrovert and

outgoing. So anyhow, let's change the
subject.

Why are we changing the subject?

Because we're introverts and you're
extroverted.

You're an introvert?

I'm a freaking donkey if you're an
introvert.

That's what they just said. I don't know
any introverts that.

Oh,

I just realized I forgot to put the
petticoat.

I don't.

Hey, baby, we're going to be moving to
the dinner table. Okay.

Shabbat shalom.

Shabbat shalom.

Ramona, you're sitting here. Okay,
Sonia.

The bread looks amazing.

I don't know what that is.

It's called challah.

Is it sweet?

Yeah, it's a sweet bread. It makes the
best French toast.

And it's what we call a paska in
Ukraine.

Because a lot of Ukrainians are Jewish.

So I'm Ukrainian, it's like a paska.

Yeah, it's like a sweet. It sort of
tastes like Portuguese bread a little

It's like a paska.

Ryan, sit down.

Okay. Oh, God.

All right.

Hi,

Lou. Hi, babe.

I'm so excited.

Oh, this is a scallion pancake. I ate
that.

You ate mine? No, that's true. Oh, wait.
Do we want to invite Leah?

Yeah. Let me bring on Leah.

Do I have to have one? I would like to
just have the tequila soda, tequila

and lots of soda. We got Leah.

Hey, girl.

Leah, say hey to everybody.

Hi, girl. Hi, Leah. We miss you.

Here's what we're going to do, ladies.

Archie's going to start off with a
proper Shabbat. I first want to thank

New friends, Lou, Son, Queen Ramona,
who's stuffing her face.

It's so cute.

It's usually me.

And Leah, who obviously wants to be here
in person, but she's here in spirit.

And she's still going to lead a blessing
for the lighting of the candles. Yes,

she is. I'm so excited to have all of
you here. We're just going to create

tonight what's going to be a beautiful,
sacred space.

So I started an organization. It's
called Jubilong. And the reason I

Jubilong. is because... It's okay.

Archie's talking. I'm going to have to
set you up. I wanted to rebrand Judaism

to make it more welcoming and relatable.

Because I was like... I feel very
welcome.

Great. Because we are having a Jubilong
Shabbat tonight.

I love it.

I love it. And with that... Can I ask
you a simple question? Yes. Do you need

be Jewish to belong? No. Okay. No. Just
asking.

the question in the world. Oh, okay.
First of all, tonight you're Jewish

you're here in my room and you do
belong. Raise your hand if you're not

Oh, wow. Okay.

That's everybody. I'm Jewish by
association. I know, but Leah's a half

Okay. So, what'd you say, baby?

Yeah, I'm with you.

I feel like I'm just staring at candles.
Can I see what's going on? Oh, yeah.

Oh, the candles are blocking her.

I'm going to put you here. Okay, here.
Do this.

Put this right here.

Of course you can, baby.

Oh, my God.

I'm just like this little character
sitting on the table.

I didn't know I'd be lined up with a
gevilta fish.

We love you.

It's kind of difficult to include you in
the conversation. We're all sitting

here. We love you. We adore you. I think
it's great that we're putting you on

FaceTime, but we can't, like, make sure
every second you're okay because we're

in the moment, baby. We're in the
moment. Why not, Ramona?

Because we can't. Because she's a bitch.

I don't understand why Ramon is being so
rude to Leah. I mean, she's converting.

What are we? We're just learning.

Archie, when are we taking our shot?

Now we are taking our shot. So we do a
Shabbat shot.

And there is no blessing for this one
except thank you all so much for being

here.

Coming up.

are so messy for this. I think you
should put her voice up.

Okay, great.

Oh, Ebony, we gotta explain what Shabbat
is.

Yeah, maybe you should. This is what
Shabbat is. Here I go.

According to tradition, Shabbat is not
simply a good idea, but a mitzvah. Six

days you shall toil and do all of your
work, but on the seventh day is the day

of rest.

You should stop thinking about work.
Wow.

I don't even know how to do that. Yeah,
you can.

I need to work on it.

No, so this is the beauty of Shabbat,
right? Friday evening is designed to

us perform this magic trick to begin to
act as if our work is done. Our work is

done. And that's it. That's it. You need
to take it. I need to take it in.

Ramona's right. You really need to take
it in. You have to take a break. A

break. It's actually Leah's turn to
light the candles.

Okay, so Leah.

I'm going to light the candles as you do
the blessing.

Yeah. Got it. I don't see any matches.

Can you hear me okay? Yeah, we can hear
you.

Sorry, my girl. Yes. Make sure you don't
blow the candle out. You just put it

down. I know, baby. I've done Shabbat
before. She's done this before. She's

to Israel and back.

She's more of a pro than you at this
point. Stop. Look at Mona. You're being

messy.

I'm saying you can get Israel.

Go ahead. Go ahead, Lee.

We are now doing the blessings for the
candles. Honey, I am a converted.

I know a lot. Well, that's because you
were going to marry the rich Jewish guy.

Okay. Didn't say he was rich. Here we
go.

All right. Well, he's not poor.

I was engaged to a man and he wanted me
to convert to Judaism. So I went through

all the lessons and everything.

And then I realized this gentleman never
said to me, I really appreciate you

switching your religion. And it made me
end my engagement. I dodged a bullet.

She's shushing everybody.

That was beautiful. Can we do the
English?

Yes.

Leah, that was beautiful. That was
beautiful.

Leah. That was great.

I am so touched.

Your commitment has really blown me
away. That's amazing.

Singing a prayer is not easy to do, and
it was very, very special to me. And

it's very meaningful that Sonia was
touched by it and, like, understands,

how important it is to me.

Beautiful. Thank you. And thank you for
joining us.

You didn't mess up at all. You are
fantastic. You are amazing.

Boom. You can sing.

What a commitment to know the words and
to sing them. In Hebrew, that's

beautiful. That was beautiful, Leah.
Okay, Ebony.

Sit down. I think you're amazing. No,
no. I just... I do.

I really do.

There's just so much hatred and there's
so much anti -Semitism and there's so

many people who like...

wouldn't even come to a Shabbat dinner,
and I'm so not kidding you. I go there

all the time. And Ebony is this amazing
human who opens up her heart and says, I

want to know about Judaism, and I've
been really worried about the

between the black and Jewish community.

But Italian and Jews have a lot in
common, too.

Sorry? Italian and Jews, they're all
about, you know, tradition.

We're talking about Ebony and she's
strong.

I'm trying to include other traditions,
other people. It's about everybody. It's

about everybody getting along. She's
saying different. No, I'm saying

She's saying different.

Ramona tries to interject in a
conversation which she has no knowledge

you don't have a knowledge of a
conversation, you should shut up and

I'm saying something very specific,
Ramona. When you are an oppressed

it's very easy to join with other forms
of oppression for your own perceived

survival. The only person that wins.

when those communities are at odds, is
white supremacy.

And I certainly deal with backlash, but
I'll do it again because there is no

place I will not go. Well, any of us, we
all feel that way. We all want what's

right in this world. But the difference
is, Ramona, the difference is... We all

do. But the difference, Ramona, the only
difference is I have paid the price.

We've all paid the price. No, no.

In different ways.

I believe that Ramona, like a lot of
well -meaning people, have a hard time

sitting with the pain of marginalized
Americans.

And I don't think Ramona has any clue as
to how painful, really, her reaction is

in this moment.

How about when I went to college, the
Jewish people hated me? Wait, we're not

talking about that. I'm just saying.

Ramona, just stop for a second. We're
not talking about that.

All right, whatever. I just feel like...
Why can't we talk about everything and

everyone? Why can't we talk about
everybody?

What Ramona's bringing up is a question
that a lot... Ramona, are you freaking

kidding me? It's okay that it's not
about white people right now. I'm

about life in general. I'm not talking
about right now.

It's not only that it's not about white
people at dinner. It's not about you,

Ramona. Jewish people hated you at
college. I'm sure everybody hated you at

college.

Everybody getting along. You're at a
Shabbat dinner. What a Shabbat dinner.

A black Shabbat dinner. I came to New
York and Jewish people, they shunned me.

They shunned me because I was Christian.

We'll talk about that in a minute. I was
discriminated.

I felt like, why wasn't I Jewish?

Do you understand?

So now we've gone from Italian
persecution to Ramona persecution at

I mean, it just gets getting worse.

Can I please speak? No one wants to
listen to me. Go, go.

No, wait, wait. I need to talk to you.

Everybody's getting along.

We're at a Shabbat dinner.

I was boycotted.

I was discriminated. I felt like, why
wasn't I Jewish?

I'm not just telling you. No one wants
to listen to me, okay?

When I go to other Shabbat dinners with
my friends, we do the prayers and we

talk and we have great conversation.

I like to share thoughts and opinion.

But I guess I'm in trouble for doing
that.

Oh, here's the back.

I like it.

And this is what I love. You probably
have a better way.

Let's give her a second.

I'll tell you this.

I mean, Ramona's gone, and that's
probably for the best. I want to talk

I just don't understand why. I don't
understand why it's triggering to hear

about someone else's history.

I was in a car for an hour and a half. I
would like to hear less from you. I

haven't peed in like two or three hours.

I'm glad we waited.

I'm glad we waited.

I feel very comfortable, so I'm sorry.
Well, you're too comfortable. I'm sorry.

You're too comfortable. Okay, I
apologize that I brought up my feelings

I bonded with you and I'm sharing my
feelings, and I'm sorry. I insulted you.

I'm sorry. You didn't insult me, not
even in a little. All I felt was sad.

Because I didn't. I'm sad now. If
anyone, because you expressed this thing

clearly the Jewish community have left
you. Not now, but when I first came to

New York when I was 17, 18. They left
you out. Well, she did have sex with

Jewish guys.

You know what? Shut up. You know what? I
did not. You were engaged to a Jewish

man. You don't even know what I'm
talking about. You are so delusional.

I'm just trying to cut off Ramona. This
is not the time.

It's not the forum.

It's not even the right audience, for
cripes sake.

I wished I was born Jewish.

Should we go on? How about hello? I
wished I was born Jewish. But you

We're not going to do that. Not that
many people do. I was upset that I

born Jewish.

Do you understand?

I cry at night. I wish I was Jewish.

I'm really horrified.

Archie has gone out of her way, making
such a beautiful night for us to

celebrate culture and compassion.

And Ramona and Sonia make me look like
an asshole.

Can we have the first course, though?

Leah, what? Yes, Lee. Can you please
take me to the other room so I can talk

you for a second? Yeah, I'm going to go
get a drink. Are we getting a first

course of food?

We're not doing Shabbat.

This is nuts, Leah.

Like, this is why I needed you here.

I'm actually so disgusted.

It was nuts. Like, it's crazy.

Okay, let me see what's food in the
kitchen. I'm starving. I'm starving. I

to eat. I'm trying to lose. See, I lost
the three pounds already I gained from

Thanksgiving, so I didn't eat all day.

Is this hummus?

I always give us hummus, cheese, veggie.
I know what you like, babe.

We'll bring you in some food right now
if you want. No, it wasn't real food.

Oh, my God. Do we have chicken or
protein?

like a white woman leading this night.
Why are you still uncomfortable?

It's so weird.

I am really embarrassed.

It is totally offensive towards Judaism
and towards all the work that Ebony is

trying to do, which is really brave of
her. And Ramona has no idea because

Ramona has the IQ of a walnut.

I need food. What'd they tell you to do?

No, I don't want snacks that's
fattening. You know, I can't be skinny

This represents a lot of people that get
uncomfortable and defensive.

I kind of regret doing this whole thing,
by the way.

Next time on The Real Housewives of New
York City.

I'm just going to make the blessing over
the wine. I'd like to bless with

tequila. Here, here's the tequila.

So wait, one of these three men is my
dad? Is that what you're telling me? I

almost certain of it.

What? Wait, wait, wait.

The money is a bit crazy for a kid to go
to high school at college prices.

This is like why I work my ass off to
give her opportunities.

Do you know you peed in Archie's
driveway last night? Yes, I did. I have

things like that before. Peed wherever.

So anyway, nuts on me. I just like
blocked it. I feel like she's on a train

I know she's going to crash. I know. And
there's nothing we can do.
