The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City

Salt Lake City, Utah, is known for its magnificent mountains..

And world-class ski slopes...

Whoo!

- Excuse me! I'm here. - Oh!

I'm excited.

- There's also... - Darling.

- ...an elite social circle... - Aah!

This is Hollywood, honey. Gorgeous.

...fueled by beauty, wealth, and perfection.

You can't buy the tips 'cause my plastic surgeon retired.

Yeah.

But what Salt Lake City is most known for

is the Mormon Church.

A quick lesson on how to be a good Mormon--

don't drink, don't swear, treat your body like a temple.

It is so hard to be a good Mormon.

To be Mormon,

we are taught honesty and integrity.

You're fake. You're phony.

That right there was unkind and dismissive.

Fidelity within marriage.

You would never hand me your phone.

It's inappropriate, and it's wrong.

And most importantly, to watch for sin.

You're gonna go with Mary, who ----ed her grandfather?

Our friendships define us.

I am here for you no matter what.

I wouldn't be here if I didn't care.

Our choices can destroy us.

How could they not be swingers?

I can't stand when people lie.

Whitney, shut the up.

- She looks insane. - I'm done listening to it.

You think you know who we are..

but you are wrong.

- Own it! - I did say that!

If you cannot be accountable, we cannot be friends!

Someone comes at me like that, I'm about ready

to ----ing punch you in the face.

Can we just start over?

In this town, I'm Queen Bee and MVP.

When you take cheap shots, always expect a hangover.

This rose isn't scared to handle a little prick.

Jealousy is a disease to which I say, "Get well soon."

I love God, but I will read you like a line of scripture.

Just like my pioneer ancestors, I'm trying to blaze a new trail

All right, folks, this food is done.

Honey, where you at, baby?

Babe, did you call me?

- Yes, baby. - Hi. What are you cooking?

Everything.

Got muffins, croissants, turkey sausage.

What do you want me to help with?

Just be beautiful. That'd be more than enough.

- Mmm. What is this? - Egg whites for the boys.

Omar, Reefy! Oh, good, you cooked more eggs, 'cause--

- Hey! - Hi, baby.

Hi.

I moved to Utah when I was about 6, 7 years old.

I'm originally from Hawaii, so I'm Tongan and Hawaiian

and a little bit of Chinese,

but people in Utah have no clue what I am.

In Utah, I'm Black...

because they don't know any better.

Give me a bigger hug.

Mommy, he hug you too tight, then he gon' break you.

My husband is a football coach at the University of Utah.

I think it takes a certain somebody

to be a coach's wife.

Most of the time, he is 5 a.m., out the door

and midnight at home.

Baby, thank you for cooking.

Did you guys say thank you to Daddy and Mommy?

Thank you, Daddy. Thank you, Mommy.

- Thanks, Pops. Appreciate that. - You're welcome. I love you.

Could've put some yolks in the eggs, though.

Why you want yolks? You don't need all that, man.

We basically have to FaceTime a lot.

It's kind of like a FaceTime marriage if that was a thing.

Reefy, how's your training and stuff going?

I just got my Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support...

- Wow. - ...license.

Closer to getting a job. Get...a...job.

- Get...a...job. -

- I don't want him to work. - Don't listen to Mom.

- Don't let... - I want him to focus on...

- No. - ...applying to medical school.

We first met in college.

We had a class together.

I saw her. My heart stops immediately.

I walk up to her. "Is that seat taken?"

She looks at me like... "There's nobody there.

I guess not."

- That's how we met. - That was our first...

- Yeah, contact. - That's exactly how we met.

After that... But that's how we started.

- Omar, how's school? - Good.

- How's your classes? - They're all good.

What did you say? He has a girlfriend?

- I didn't say that. - No, not a girlfriend.

- You got a girlfriend? - No.

- Exactly right. - Do you like any girls?

My husband Sharrieff is Muslim, but I was raised Mormon,

and that's all I knew until five years into my marriage,

I'm like, "Hey, Sharrieff, why don't you convert to Mormonism?"

And he was like, "Are you kidding me?"

They didn't accept Black people into the Mormon Church

until, like, 1970-something.

That's when I started questioning, you know what?

I cannot sign up for a religion

that didn't accept my husband and my kids.

That's the point when I was like,

okay, I'm converting to Islam.

Assalamu Alaikum, bitches!

Have you kissed a girl yet?

No, Mom.

If you kiss a girl, you might be like, "Oh, she's cute."

Guess what? You can contract herpes, probably AIDS.

No.

I don't think that's true.

Do you know what sexting is?

Yeah, what is that? I don't know what that is.

It's when girls send you dirty messages.

Oh!

- - You know what that is?

- I didn't know what that is. - Oh, my God.

Omar, if someone sexts you, block them...

and then come tell me. - Okay.

Thank you for calling Beauty Lab + Laser.

This is Nick.

- Hi, fam. - What's up, partner?

How's biz?

- Biz is good. - Crazy.

Gosh, just making money.

Beauty Lab + Laser. This is Nick.

I have lived in Utah since I was 15 years old.

The Mormon culture believes that we can be perfect.

Perfection is attainable. That's what Mormon doctrine says.

Because Salt Lake City is the capital of Mormonism,

I decided to open Beauty Lab + Laser.

Majority of our clients have Mormon backgrounds

or are active Mormon women.

It's just like putting your hand in a river of money,

because attaining perfection is a Mormon pastime.

We started from nothing,

and now we're valued at over $20 million.

- Hi, Mom! Hey, guys. - Hi!

Perfect timing. Hi. How are you?

I'm good. How are you?

- Hi, Mom. - Busy day?

- Yes, always. - Good.

I am a purebred, pedigreed, pioneer Mormon.

My ancestors came across the plains as pioneers.

They settled American Fork, Utah,

and Plain City, Utah.

I married a Mormon man. I had three Mormon daughters.

Every descendant in our line is Mormon.

- Hi! - Hi!

I brought some greasy-faced monkeys for y'all.

- Yay! Hey, guys. - Hi.

Annabelle, do you wanna go over here,

or do you wanna... - Uh--

- I can go to this one. - Okay.

The family that facials together stays together.

I married into a family of extreme wealth.

Howard Hughes comes in, hires my grandfather-in-law

as his driver and henchman.

Howard Hughes loved the Mormons, and when he passed,

the Gay family inherited a huge portion of his estate.

The Gay family is worth billions.

So I basically married into Mormon royalty,

but it all came crashing down

when we got divorced five years ago.

In the Mormon Church, divorce is not an option.

Are you excited for your birthday, Georgia?

- Yes, I'm so excited. - I'm so excited.

- It's gonna be so fun. - 14 years old.

Any advice for 14?

Yeah, stop FaceTiming boys late at night.

In my personal experience, a good Mormon doesn't drink,

doesn't smoke, doesn't have sex, doesn't swear.

I've tried not to drink, smoke, swear.

Love rap music, love Black men, love homosexuals.

Like, all the things that I love and gravitate to

are not in alliance with a good Mormon woman.

I want you to experiment and own your bodies,

but I'm not gonna let you drown. - Thanks, Mom.

I'm not.

Annabelle's asleep.

- Mom, Dad? - Yeah?

- Are you guys ready? - Yeah, are you ready?

I've been ready for the past, like, 15 minutes. Let's go.

Okay. Let me get my shoes. Seth?

You have high-heeled boots for hiking?

These are not high heels.

It's like an inch. They're snow boots.

I feel like those are for Aspen, not Park City.

Okay, I'm very happy with my boots, so...
