This week's episode of "The Real Housewives of Orange County" was all about mothers and their children, as Vicki Gunvalson visited her daughter Brianna in Oklahoma, Shannon Beador got a nice surprise from her daughters, while Tamra Judge got in trouble with her husband for helping her son Ryan with his finances. 

Vicki flew to Oklahoma to visit Brianna because her husband Ryan just had a back surgery and thought she might need some help. In her confessional, Brianna said that she loves it when her mom is in town because she is working two jobs right now, plus, because Ryan can't move very well yet, she's also taking care of their kids all by herself — she could use the help. 

It just so happened that it was tornado season in Oklahoma, and Vicki freaked out when she learned that they had to go to the storm shelter. In the shelter, Vicki got claustrophobic and said that she had to get out. 

Brianna said that it would be really great if they could move to Orange County but there was no way that she was going home while Brooks was living in their family home. She added that she wouldn't want her kids around him because she thinks he's a terrible person. Vicki said that she made the decision to be with Brooks and she was standing by it. Later, Vicki bought Brianna a car for her birthday and although Brianna was embarrassed to accept it, she knew that there was nothing she can do about it now. 

At the Beador's home, Shannon and David's daughters had a surprise for them: they set up their pop-up restaurant "Beador's Restaurant" in their dining room. The girls said that they made dinner because they wanted their parents' relationship to be better. Shannon thought that their daughters made the dinner as a "do over" for her birthday celebration the other week, which didn't end so well. Shannon reassured the kids that they're doing all they can to heal and make things work. 

Meanwhile, Tamra came clean to Eddie about giving her son Ryan some money to help him buy a house. Eddie was not happy about this and said that he didn't want to work so hard in order to support another man's family. He said that as much as he loves Ryan, he thinks that he's irresponsible and that if Tamra continues to do this again and again, then they're going to have a problem. 

Next week, in the episode titled "Fire Signs," Shannon throws an Aries-themed party and Brooks finally gets the opportunity to confront Meghan about the things that she had been saying about him, and something he says causes Tamra to get angry.
