Soon there will be "Real Housewives" all across America (for better or worse), as Bravo expands its successful franchise into Beverly Hills. Cameras follow affluent women (some regulars, others who recur) as they enjoy the lavish lifestyle only Beverly Hills can offer. The ladies change through the seasons and over time the cast has included former child actresses Kim and Kyle Richards, heiress Adrienne Maloof, restaurateur Lisa Vanderpump, philanthropist and business owner Taylor Armstrong and the one-time Mrs. Kelsey Grammer, Camille Donatacci (who alternates between a regular member of the cast and a recurring role during her time on the show).

Erika is excited when Lisa Rinna introduces actress Denise Richards to the group; Lisa Vanderpump struggles to come to terms with her grief after a personal tragedy; Dorit is concerned that Teddi will twist information about her family's dog.

Kyle and Lisa Vanderpump visit a cosmetic dermatologist in the hopes of lifting Lisa's spirits, as well as some other body parts; Dorit suggests a girls' trip to the Bahamas; Lisa Rinna hosts a pastry party.

In the Bahamas, newcomer Denise quickly discovers that fun in the sun, sand and surf comes with plenty of conflict for the rest of the women; Lisa Rinna suspects Kyle and Teddi were used in a scheme to exact revenge on Dorit.

Lisa Rinna and Denise comfort Dorit, who struggles to make sense of the gossip surrounding her dog; Lisa Vanderpump is accused of spreading the dog story; Erika and Teddi put their rocky past behind them; Kyle buys jewelry after last year's burglary.
