 RHOC-Polygraph Pandemonium 

Podcast Summary – RHOC S19 E8 “Truth Tellers & Lie Detectors”

This episode blends heartfelt family moments with Bravo-level chaos.

Heather and Terry spend time with their kids in LA while discussing multi-million-dollar real estate moves. Gretchen lunches with Gina, preparing to confront Kiki about rumors. Kiki shocks Gretchen with claims that she said she was drugged after the infamous “Naked Wasted” night and suggests Gina made a racially insensitive comment—sparking tears, denials, and tension.

Meanwhile, Emily plans a Norooz celebration with a twist: lie detector tests for all the ladies. The group arrives on edge—especially with Tamra’s return and Katie facing major scrutiny.

The polygraph chaos delivers bombshells: Heather “fails” about calling paparazzi, Tamra admits to contacting Slade’s ex, Shannon cops to kissing multiple men but still wants a maybe-friendship with Tamra, Gina denies using Heather for real estate connections, and Jennifer fails on reservations about marrying Ryan.

Katie takes the biggest hit—failing nearly every question, including whether she spread rumors about Gretchen being drugged and accusing Gina of racism. Emily and the group pile on, accusing Katie of lying and losing all credibility. Producers eventually step in, telling Katie to take a break from filming after she insists she’s being truthful.

The episode ends with Katie isolated and emotional, Gretchen feeling duped, and the women’s alliances shaken yet again.
