    Bimbos, this Ultimate Girls Trip recap really takes a turn when Jenn and Matt have vastly different takes on Heather Gay! They do share one thing in common, though: Vicki Gunvalson wouldn't be on either of their Housewives Mount Rushmores. But before all of that, Jenn's Self Checkout is asking: how do you approach a friend whose significant other you can't stand? You don't want to miss Matt's... interesting advice. RHUGT Recap 9:50
