The Real Housewives of New Jersey

- Season 2

(2010)

Everyone's favorite Jersey Girls are back for a brand new season of even bigger drama. The family is as thick as thieves, and Danielle is still trying to make her way into their inner circle. The birth of Jacqueline's baby boy brings the Manzo sisters even closer together, and when Caroline throws her annual Sheriff's Fundraiser and doesn't invite Danielle, Danielle makes sure that everyone knows she was excluded.

While family is the most important thing to these Jersey housewives, it's also the source of lots of drama. Jacqueline and her daughter Ashley continue to butt heads over Ashley's bad girl behavior. When Caroline's daughter's boyfriend causes a riff in the Manzo clan, Caroline does her best to stay away and let her babies work it out themselves. Meanwhile, Teresa and Danielle's daughters are both invited to model in the upcoming NYC Fashion Week, and in an effort to move forward and focus on the positive, Danielle extends an olive branch to her former friends to ...

The Jersey drama continues when Danielle accuses Jacqueline of not being her own woman. Tired of all the negativity, Dina makes a date with a Zen Expert to purge Danielle from her life. Meanwhile, a very pregnant Teresa and a very determined Danielle see their daughters modeling in Fashion Week.

The big day finally arrives for Teresa and Joe as they welcome their fourth bambino into the world. Meanwhile, Chris Manzo scores big when he gets an inside look into his dream business, and Jacqueline gets a peek into her husband's secret safe. As the Brownstone prepares for a big night, Danielle gets an invitation she can't refuse, but makes sure to get "back-up" from an old friend before she RSVPs.

Baby Audriana is home from the hospital and although Teresa and Joe couldn't be happier with their fourth princess, Teresa pleads with Joe to get "snipped." Meanwhile, Jacqueline and Ashley are still struggling to get along, but in true Manzo form, Caroline's kids reach out and try to bridge the gap. After a heartfelt invitation to a charity event at the Brownstone, Danielle calls in some favors as she prepares to walk into the lion's den one more time.

After the outburst at the Brownstone, another battle breaks out, but this time via Facebook, when Danielle accuses Jacqueline's teenage daughter of threatening her life. Wanting to put an end to the drama, Jacqueline and Teresa confront Ashley about the alleged attacks. Surrounded by all of this negative energy, Dina decides to follow her energist's advice and sets up a face-to-face meeting with Danielle to officially cut her out of her life.

Danielle, feeling empowered after standing up to the Manzo clan, decides it's time to live again. With the help of her "loyal friends" (and a few moves from her professional past), Danielle brings sexy back. Dina can't deal with the constant fighting, and makes a big decision that changes everything.

Everyone knows Danielle has had a hard past, but she finally takes matters into her own hands and goes under the knife to fix one of her biggest issues. Meanwhile, Teresa rolls out the red carpet for her long awaited housewarming party as Caroline deals with family issues when golden boy Albie faces big rejection.

Teresa and Jacqueline get an invitation they just can't refuse, but worlds collide and tempers flare as they are face to face with Danielle for the first time.

The brawl between Teresa, Jacqueline and Danielle takes an ugly turn and the police are called in to put an end to this hair-raising feud.

The law does not seem to be on anyone's side on "The Real Housewives of New Jersey", as Danielle, reeling from the hair-pull heard 'round the world,' seeks her day in court and Jacqueline struggles to get Ashley to face the seriousness of her actions. Meanwhile, Albie grows anxious about his career as a lawyer.

Teresa and Joe celebrate their 10-year anniversary in true Giudice style. Meanwhile, Ashley gets a surprise in the mail that just adds to her stress. Danielle tries to focus on the positive by planning her daughter Christine's Sweet 16, but will her ex-husband be a no-show and ruin the festivities?

Dina returns to fulfill her Godmother duties as Teresa and Joe spare no expense for baby Audriana's fabu-licious Christening. But while the Manzo's and Giudice's are all celebrating, Danielle discovers that one of her closest confidants is a real mole and all hell breaks loose.

A very public DUI has all the tongues in town wagging. In an effort to escape all the drama, Teresa, Caroline, Jacqueline and their families embark on a cruise to Italy and a whirlwind tour through the homeland. Unfortunately their efforts to escape the insanity backfire, as they find out that traveling with three generations of families is anything but relaxing.

The Italy extravaganza continues as Teresa and Joe give everyone an all-out tour of their hometown, complete with hordes of relatives and a family dinner like only the Giudice's can create. Not to be outdone, Danielle meets with a private investigator in an effort to reconnect with her own family roots, and finds that sometimes blood is not thicker than water.

The ladies are back on Jersey's shores and are determined to put Danielle out of their lives for good. An emotional dinner at Teresa's leads to a commitment from Caroline and an invitation Danielle cannot turn down. The showdown that everyone was waiting for finally takes place - Caroline and Danielle face off, but this time there are no books, no family, no distractions and nowhere to run.
