1. Melissa and Joe Push Their Realtor Hard
Melissa meant what she said at the reunion when she said she didn’t want her kids to go to school with Teresa’s kids anymore. She kept her promise on trying to sell her house. Melissa and Joe host an open house, but remain in the house as guests come through, which is a little unconventional. In turn, they do not receive the feedback they’d like on their home.
2. Caroline’s Sister Has a Surprise
Don’t forget #RHONJ tonight on @bravotv 8pm!!!You guys will meet my sister @frannielaurita, she’s something else!
— Caroline Manzo(@CarolineManzo) June 9, 2013
Caroline Manzo’s sister Fran has gone through a divorce and has been living at the Manzo’s primary home… with her new foster dog Frito. Apparently the pup has been living there for months. Surprise, Caroline.
As long as there’s no dog pee on the floor, I’m comfortable with it.
3. Mrs. Manzo Requests a Sit-down With Mrs. Giudice
Does anyone else think of the Danielle and Caroline sit down when Caroline is contacting Teresa for a sit down #RHONJ

In the premiere episode, Caroline tells Joe Gorga that she wants to help mend his relationship wih his sister Teresa. So, in an effort to help a friend, Caroline jumps back into the shark tank.
I was not going to get involved in this fight again, but it breaks my heart because I’m one of 11 and I’ve been there. From the bottom of my heart, I really want this family to mend.
4. Jacqueline’s Autistic Son Brings Her To Tears
For those who missed this moment; bravotv.com/the-real-house… … @jaclaurita @chris_laurita this is what life is all about! #rhonj

For over a year and a half, Jacqueline’s young son Nick has not been able to say “I love you” to her due to his autism. Thanks to her caring husband who’s been working with their speech therapist on this little project, Jacqueline’s little boy makes Jacqueline’s dream come true. This was Jacqueline’s miracle baby after five miscarriages and she’s doing everything she can to help him conquer his illness.
Aww @chris_laurita is the effing DEFINITION of a perfect hubby! @jaclaurita #RHONJ
— Mr. Housewife (@bravo_rhony) June 10, 2013
Thank you all SO much for your support! XOXO! It is appreciated. I know Nick will continue to progress.. I love you @chris_laurita ! XOXO!

5. Kathy Teaches Her Son To Drive

While Daddy Richie wants to remain the “cool parent”, he remains in the backseat cracking jokes as Momma Kathy dictates to her son on the rules of driving.
6. Teresa’s Father Lands In The Hospital
Teresa has her children make cards for her father who has to go in to the hospital for a pace-maker. We see her leaving the hospital with her partner in crime Kim “D” before receiving a text from Caroline. In a nice change of pace, Kim “D” tells Teresa she hopes for nothing but the best in terms of Teresa getting together with Caroline.
7. Kathy Gets a Tour of Her Daughter’s Nursing School
Fortunately for Kathy, her daughter is a commuter and lives at home while she goes to college. On a less fortunate note, it seemed that Daddy Richie’s constant goofing around was really taking its toll on wife Kathy.
8. Caroline Tells Teresa to Forgive Jacqueline
“She has been a true and loyal friend.” Do you agree with Caroline? Should Teresa forgive Jacqueline? #RHONJ
— Bravotv (@Bravotv) June 10, 2013
Caroline tells Teresa she needs to mend fences and should start with Kathy while working her way up to Jacqueline.
9. Teresa Brings Former Housewife Dina Back Into the Mix
#RHONJ Fran looks like Dina! @dinamanzo @carolinemanzo you both have an amazing family!
— TGFamilyFanpage#1 (@Team_Giudice) June 10, 2013
At Teresa’s talk with Caroline, Teresa brings up the fact that Caroline’s sister Dina’s relationship with her is still on the rocks. So, she can’t understand why Caroline is getting involved. Caroline tells Teresa that she needs to make up with her brother while their father is still alive, which seems to strike a cord with Teresa.
Teresa ends up agreeing to meet her brother half-way and the two end their “meeting” with a hug.
I wonder if @carolinemanzo is so involved with @joegorga and @teresa_giudice on the show because she wants to get close to @dinamanzo #RHONJ

10. Next Week Melissa and Teresa Get Into It
Melissa and Teresa get into it, Teresa and Joe’s father ends up back in the hospital, Richie’s son and Aunt Rosie take his Ferrari for a joy ride, and Jacqueline laughs as Caroline tells her that Teresa would like an apology from her. Stay tuned for next week! Sounds like a big one!
