Elections have consequences — even in House of Villains. In this week’s episode, we faced the aftermath of Larsa winning the popular vote in last week’s Battle Royale Challenge. She became the Supervillain of the Week, and her first act? She nominated Camilla, Victoria, and Teresa for the Hit List.
Not only did Larsa betray her fellow Real Housewife, but it was the final nail in the coffin of her friendship with Victoria. Now, they’re officially frenemies, and that’s a dangerous place to be with a Housewife. Let’s dive into the details of House of Villains Season 2, Episode 6, “Welcome to NY, New Jersey!”
What happened in House of Villains Season 2, Episode 6?
With the help of an extra-special guest, the villains on the Hit List competed in a Redemption Challenge to keep their spot in the competition. Meanwhile, New York had another psychic vision that left her no choice but to confront Teresa. By the end of the episode, another villain got kicked out of the competition. Plus, Mr. Pecactular oiled up his body and squeezed into a speedo for the Banishment Ceremony. Truly, there was something for everyone in this episode.
Welcome to Villains High
Of course, everyone was freaking the hell out over Larsa’s weird choices for the Hit List, but there was hardly any time to panic. They had a Redemption Challenge that sent them back to high school. That’s even scarier than being up for banishment!
The villains ventured to a high school, where none other than Tori Spelling came emerging in a sexy schoolteacher outfit to introduce the challenge. It was good to see her taking a break from battling the mold in her house to do something fun like House of Villains. Slay, Tori!
This week’s Redemption Challenge was called Erase to Escape, and Tori explained that her school had been “vandalized.” The names of a bunch of villains, past and present, were stamped all over the walls, lockers, bathroom stalls, and everywhere else you could imagine. Each villain had their name listed 85 times, and the three, at-risk villains had to race to erase their names the fastest. The first villain to erase all 85 names would win safety from elimination.
Once the villains got started, it became clear that this would be a very tedious challenge. It became particularly challenging for Teresa, who revealed that she struggles with her eyesight. In a confessional, she said she wanted to get “Lasiks” before coming into the House of Villians. She didn’t have time, and it cost her the challenge.
While Teresa blundered through the challenge, Camilla and Victoria stayed neck in neck. It all came down to one final name they had to find. Victoria managed to find hers the fastest, and she got erased from the Hit List.
Campaigning to stay alive
After the Redemption Challenge, the villains immediately started discussing their plans for elimination. Wes and his cult were immediately ready to throw Camilla to the wolves, primarily as revenge for putting him on the Hit List.
With that in mind, Kandy and Camilla immediately went to work to try to secure votes. They already sacrificed Richard by voting with the majority of the house. Now, the numbers are even more stacked against them.
When campaigning with the other villains, Camilla tried to explain to them just how badly she actually needed the $200,000 compared to Teresa. That’s life-changing money for Camilla, whereas Teresa has been on The Real Housewives of New Jersey for over ten years. She doesn’t need it nearly as badly.
Meanwhile, Larsa was going around the lair warning everyone “not to vote against the house.” She also bizarrely tried to claim that Teresa needed the money just as much as Camilla because she was “raising four daughters” and having to pay off Joe Giudice’s legal debts. It’s a ridiculous argument from a deeply unserious player.
Another psychic vision rattles the house
Elsewhere in the House of Villains lair, we learned that Tiffany had another psychic vision. This time, she saw a vision of herself getting banished from the game. She told Victoria that she only had three days left in the game.
When Victoria heard that information, she “panicked” because Teresa had mentioned wanting to target New York if she survived banishment and won Supervillain of the Week. A self-proclaimed “slut for a psychic,” Victoria decided to tell Tiffany that Tre was coming for her. That teed up the clash of the reality TV titans we’ve been waiting for.
Armed with nothing but psychic visions and secondhand knowledge, Tiffany went straight up to Teresa and said, “You know what? F*ck you, Teresa. You bitch! You coming for me? You’re coming for New York?”
New York takes on New Jersey
It took a moment for Teresa to activate her Real Housewives of New Jersey mode, but once she did, it was glorious. She and New York went toe-to-toe in an argument sent straight from reality TV heaven.
During their back-and-forth, Tiffany took a shot at Tre’s beloved Luis Ruelas. He had been sending Teresa love notes the entire time they were filming, and that day, he sent her a giant bouquet of roses.
“You know why Luis really sent those roses? It’s because he’s guilty, bitch,” Tiffany argued. “He’s been f-cking around, and each one of these roses represents how many times she’s cheated on your ass since you’ve been here.”
Somewhere in New Jersey, Margaret Josephs is sipping an iced coffee and cackling at all of this. New York really let Teresa have it.
The battle continued, with Teresa accusing New York of being jealous of the roses she got from Luis. Teresa said the word “jealous” in this episode just as many times as Larsa mentioned The Traitors. It was a lot.
Once the two went to their separate corners, Teresa realized that her strongest allies in the house were the men. She went downstairs and told each of them, “You’re a fresh of breath air.”
Who went home this week on House of Villains?
New York blowing up on Teresa seemed like it should have sealed one more vote for Teresa to get the boot. Right before the banishment ceremony, Safaree also told Camilla that he’d vote for her to say. That meant that Jessie, in his wrestling gear, should have been the deciding vote on whether to eliminate Camilla or Teresa. Right? Wrong.
At the Banishment Ceremony, Joel announced that with a vote of 4-2, Camilla from Bad Girls Club became the third villain eliminated from House of Villains Season 2. Like a true Bad Girl, she threw up two middle fingers before getting flipped out of the competition.
“I think I was eliminated because I put Wes up, Camilla theorized in an exit interview. “He’s a bitch and he’s a sore loser. He felt threatened. I am a threat. I’m glad I put his ass up.”
Camilla also had some parting words for Safaree, who seemingly lied to her face about trying to keep her in the house. Either he lied, or someone else did a last-minute switch-up. Regardless, Camilla made her thoughts on him very clear.
She continued, “And Safaree, you let a redhead control your game? F*ck you, Safaree.”
Season 2 of House of Villains continues on E!, Thursday nights at 10/9c.
