Bravo heads to the Big Apple for this entry in its hit reality-TV franchise. This New York edition features several confident women, who change throughout the seasons as the women leave, with some returning later on. The featured ladies over time have included entrepreneur and one-time talk-show host Bethenny Frankel, part-time socialite and full-time mother Aviva Drescher (who is a cousin, by marriage, of actress Fran Drescher), best-selling author and journalist Carole Radziwill, savvy businesswoman Heather Thomson, entrepreneur Ramona Singer, sassy single mother Sonja Morgan and model Kristen Taekman.

After reuniting with her stepfather, Bethenny visits her therapist who encourages her to tap into her feelings; Ramona reveals that Mario wants to get his family back; Luann and Ramona call each other out for talking about John.

The women head to the Berkshires in Massachusetts to celebrate Dorinda's 50th birthday; Kristen complains about John's behavior; the women discuss Bethenny's childhood; a surprise guest shows up at Dorinda's birthday dinner.

Bethenny and Heather get into a screaming match during Dorinda's birthday dinner; Kristen invites Carole to contribute some branding ideas for her new nail polish line; Ramona hosts a party at her new sports bar.

Newly debt free, Sonja wants to celebrate by inviting all the women to the Turks and Caicos Islands; Kristen remains perplexed by Bethenny's actions; Carole shares a sex dream; Luann invites everyone to a photo shoot for her new clothing line.
