RECAP: Real Housewives of New Jersey: Season 5, Episode 4: Enjoy your workout

HOBOKEN AND BEYOND — Once again, the Hudson Reporter newspaper chain, based in Hoboken, recaps the “Real Housewives of New Jersey.” Several of the cast members now live in Hoboken, so that’s our excuse for writing about it. What’s your excuse for watching it?
This week, the crew prepares to attend Richie Wakile’s birthday party. Victoria is also celebrating a birthday, so it’s a combined party. Victoria asks her parents who’s going to be there. That’s sort of becoming a classic line on reality shows, allowing the cast to list all the people who hate each other and will likely cause the denouement, if you will.
Also in this episode, Albie and Chris Manzo prepare to open their new restaurant, “Little Town New Jersey,” on the Hoboken waterfront. His restaurant opened months ago in Hoboken and it’s going strong, for those who are wondering.
The main event occurred when Theresa Giudice was at the gym and realized her brother, Joe Gorga, was working out in the same room at the same time. Shocking!! The only non-surprising thing is that they didn’t put a few other cast members on the treadmills for good measure.
Joe and Theresa insult each other’s spouses. Joe even says that Theresa’s husband is a bad father. Theresa throws water in Joe’s face. Was it Blkwater? Because that would be great product placement.
Apparently, it’s supposed to get even hotter next week. So stay tuned!
