Real Housewives of Dubai Season 2, Episode 9 Recap: Water Blessings Can’t Heal Everything

After a brief pause in airings, our Real Housewives of Dubai Season 2, Episode 9 recap has finally arrived! Still in Bali, the ladies last left us on read via a TO BE CONTINUED sign. In this week’s episode, “Note to Be Trusted,” Lesa remains ticked off at Ayan for leaking her voice note. However, Ayan is equally disturbed by Lesa, who no longer trusts her. Enter Sara, organizing a healing event for her cast, but as RHODubai Season 2, Episode 9 showed, sometimes, healings don’t last.

Lesa’s shared voice note fallout continues

Last week , a flashback emerged, showing Ayan playing a voice note from Lesa. Stirring the pot, Stanbury brought this up at their dinner table later that night. In turn, Brooks sat, stunned, as the explanations remained just out of reach on Sara’s frozen tongue.

Returning to their shell-shocked table, an upset Lesa urges Ayan to play this note aloud. Ayan presses play, and we finally hear Sara’s complete message.

“You did what’s right, regardless of who the person was, and I get it. And you explained yourself. You’re like, ‘Even if I’m not Brooks’ fan, I will still not stand for that,” Sara’s voice says tiredly to Lesa.

Thankfully, Sara can explain this away. Turning towards Taleen, Sara tells her friend that her very vocal fight with Brooks at Stanbury’s housewarming party sucked. “When I heard you screaming, ‘Where’s your husband,’ I wasn’t YOUR biggest fan. I was upset because she [Brooks] is divorced, [and] I’m divorced,” Sara recalls.

Everyone gets it. Sara was speaking about Taleen, not Brooks.

“I need Brooks’ fantasy private jet to come get me,” Stanbury chides in her confessional. Had she known this message originated from Lesa, Stanbury would have taken this storyline to her grave.

“I apologize for throwing you under the bus,” Stanbury tells Ayan. “We are f*cking done,” Ayan responds, flicking Stanbury off.

“A snake can always change their skin, but they’ll always be a snake,” Lesa tells Stanbury. “Thank you, Lesa. I feel the same about you, darling,” Stanbury retorts.

Ayan leaves, upset with both Lesa and Stanbury.

Lesa and Ayan are not okay

Lesa excuses herself from the table to check on Ayan. The screen goes black as the words “20 MINUTES LATER” appear. Behind a closed door, Ayan wails as a sobbing Lesa exits her room, asking production for “a minute.”

Calmed down in her interview, Lesa explains, “I get to Ayan’s room to check on her, and she shouted, ‘F*ck you … How dare you embarrass me in front of the girls?'” But Lesa is also mad at Ayan for sharing her voice note with Stanbury.

Lesa cries to her husband on the phone, calling Ayan “a bitch” for flipping the blame onto her.

In her room, Ayan reveals that she told Lesa about this voice note well before their dinner, letting Lesa know that Stanbury wanted Ayan to share it at some point. And yet, Lesa had the gall to act shocked at the table. “You are lying about my name,” Ayan stresses, noting that she “kicked that b*tch out of her room.”

In the hallway, Lesa tells Brooks what transpired between herself and Ayan. Brooks squeals happily in her confessional, excited that “The house of cards is falling.”

Sara protects the cast of RHODubai at the club

Everyone but Ayan heads out to enjoy the nightlife in Bali. They all let loose at the club. But as Stanbury notes, they were “drinking petrol,” aka cheap liquor, so it was gross.

Taleen finds a hot enough, long-haired man in the club and introduces him to Brooks. Brooks says nope, joking in her confessional that Taleen’s olive branch is a bust.

Sara does her best to protect her costars from “ending up in Jeffrey Dahmer’s freezer,” as they freely party on the dancefloor.

“The Water Blessing” win

Ayan awakens, ready to join the cast on Sara’s spiritual trip. She tells Lesa they should talk before they depart because she loves her. Lesa stands up, crying, asking again for “a minute.”

Ayan follows Lesa. They talk it out. This house of cards is now fine (ish). In contrast, Ayan remains p*ssed off at Stanbury.

But “today is all about positivity,” Sara explains, telling the ladies they are going to a waterfall, where they will spiritually scream out their traumas. Stanbury’s van pulls over. She vomits out last night’s “petrol.”

Both vans finally arrive at Sara’s destination. Their guide has them change into sarongs. Stanbury tells Taleen that Ayan is ignoring her, which she hates.

Their guide hands them each a basket filled with burning offerings (incense) that they will lay and pray before various statues. Lesa skips this part because it conflicts with her Christian values. “Lesa, where was your moral high ground last night,” Taleen jokes in her interview as the cameras show Lesa dancing in a cage at the club.

After doing as instructed, the ladies (minus Stanbury) enter the water. They climb on the rocks surrounding the waterfall and begin screaming. Lesa screams the loudest, sharing that she is finally letting her brother’s death go.

After, the ladies hold hands, thanking Sara for a peaceful day.

The water can only heal so much on RHODubai

Later that night, Lesa doles out outfits and some are far better than others.

“I got the worst color,” Taleen says. Agreeing, Stanbury notes, “Your skirt looks like someone did a poop.”

As for her short, rose-covered gown, Stanbury hates this as well.

“I would have never chosen mustard yellow. I don’t wear mustard yellow,” Brooks yells as the credits roll on RHODubai Season 2, Episode 9.

Real Housewives of Dubai Season 2 continues every Tuesday on Bravo at 9/8c.
