Just a week after an ill-fated pregnancy prank on Real Housewives of New York, the stunt continued, much to the chagrin of fans.
It all started last week when Rebecca Minkoff and Erin Lichy teamed up for the prank where Erin, 37, told many of the women that Rebecca, 42, is expecting a baby from an affair she had, which stunned the housewives.
The prank was in such poor taste that even executive producer Andy Cohen called it out last week on Watch What Happens Live.
Fans hoping that the prank would be put to a swift end on this week's episode were quite disappointed, since it would be discussed throughout Tuesday's episode, entitled Birds of a Feather Gossip Together.
With yet another 'To Be Continued...' tag at the end of this episode, and next week's entitled Coming Clean, fans were furious that this will seemingly drag over three episodes.

The episode began directly after last week's ended, with Rebecca and Erin smiling to themselves as they other women tried to figure out what was happening.
Erin explained in confession that a week earlier she was having lunch with Rebecca where she mentioned something about a 'leaky pigeon' in the group who spreads gossip.
Early on in the episode Rebecca and Erin came clean to the others, though many in the group weren't too pleased, like Jessel, who said, 'If I was gonna play a prank on someone, it would be funny.'
Sai de Silva added in confession, 'I thought that the joke was a little tone deaf,' though while fans hoped that would be the end of it, it's clear it will be brought up yet again in next week's episode, which fans are none too pleased about.
@NateDaBoss13 said, 'I’m glad all of us that are still watching this s**tshow are on the same page about this prank! The prank and this fall out from it is soooo stupid! Fast forward to Puerto Rico and hurry up and get to the reunion!'
@VeilOfSecretz added, 'I’m tired of these young broads and all this artificial bulls**t. This franchise really went to s**t. YEAH LETS PLAY A PRANK…'
@vanewpc added, 'Ok this whole prank is a flop and Erin is extra weird for telling everyone,she wasnt suppose to.'
@brownboywriting said, 'We are seriously dissecting a freaking prank across an entire episode?!'

@Nikkibaby_8 added, 'So for 50 minutes this episode has mostly been about a prank. Are they trying to tank the show on purpose….'
@dramabananna articulated, 'What’s lacking this season? The only storyline these women have had together is Rebecca’s prank… They are trying storylines on their own, but that’s not what it should be about…They are doing less than minimum.'
@sweetpotatopod said 'It is so infuriating that they knew it was a prank and they are literally admitting to PRODUCING storylines, which all adds up to manufactured entertainment. RHONY was turned into WWE.'
@BelvedereMarti1 bluntly stated, 'Enough with this prank conversation .. JESUS!!!!'
@nycbabylon added, 'Why are they still discussing the stupid prank?'
@essayjenkins added, 'This prank still. Everything abt this prank better be over in the first 3 mins of next episode... this s**t is exhausting.'
@LikeaStar1032 said, 'Why didn’t we start the episode wrapping up the prank? Why another dumb cliffhanger?'
@_LindsayG simply said, 'The prank bit isn’t working, guys.'
Brynn Whitfield, Ubah Hassan, Sai de Silva and Raquel Chevremont all spent a day at the Museum of Sex
Elsewhere in the episode, Jessel Taank revealed that she found a therapist for her and husband Pavit to work through their communication issues.
Jessel also spoke frequently about having a third child, which Pavit refuses to approve but doesn't offer any 'reasoning why,' Jessel said.
