NEW JERSEY, US: Even though the castmates have agreed they are "not friends," Dolores Catania and Jennifer Aydin's drama is far from done. During the forthcoming episode, viewers will watch the friendship deteriorate further as the latter rushes out of the party with her husband, causing mayhem for everyone else.

The drama on season 13 of 'The Real Housewives of New Jersey' didn't take long to begin, but the most heated moment in the premiere didn't come from Melissa Gorga and Teresa Giudice. Dolores and Jennifer got into a yelling match at the end of the program on Tuesday, February 7. Things became heated when Dolores overheard Jennifer talking about her to Melissa at a party celebrating the debut of Dolores' boyfriend Paul 'Paulie' Connell on the program. When Margaret Josephs brought up Bill's prior affair on camera during Season 12, Jennifer said her castmate "wasn't f*****g nice," despite their disagreement on whether Dolores was a "good friend."

'I just gotta mourn the loss'

Jennifer left the 'RHONJ' husbands' sensual calendar picture shoot early in the February 7 episode and labeled Dolores a "two-faced" buddy. Jennifer informs her husband, Dr. Bill Aydin, that Dolores is "trash" and a "lowlife" after suddenly departing the picture session at Margaret's house. He reacts by claiming Jennifer has "high expectations" for her pals. Meanwhile, Dolores confesses to Margaret that she "did" care for Jennifer and had "gone against" every cast member in the past to defend her. She now claims that she "can't be in a relationship like that."

Dolores confronts the rest of the cast in the forthcoming episode, explaining how Jennifer sobbed to everyone but herself. When she tried to speak, Jennifer said, "We're not friends." Jennifer, meanwhile, mumbles to her husband about not wanting to be friends with "trash like that."

When Melissa told Dolores that Jennifer didn't like her, she dragged out receipts, "Have I not gone against every one of you for her?" Flashbacks from previous seasons confirm that. "I have gone against every one of you," she stated.

Jennifer expresses her disdain for "that low life" elsewhere. Dolores claims she didn't want to attack Jennifer's husband since he doesn't deserve it. Danielle believes Jennifer desires Dolores' obsession with her. Teresa advises they simply talk things out. Jennifer's husband tells her that her friends have great expectations of her. "The whole thing is a big ‘f**k you,'" says one. Jennifer drives away in her vehicle. "I just gotta mourn the loss."

'I wanted to throw things'

Dolores claims she was on the verge of a physical altercation with Jennifer Aydin during their heated argument on the 'RHONJ' Season 13 premiere. During a live broadcast of Page Six's "Virtual Reali-Tea" podcast, the reality star described how her boyfriend, Paul 'Paulie' Connell, helped her stay calm. "In that scene, [Connell] stands behind me and he puts his hand down my back, and I wanted to throw things, I wanted to run out the door after her and I wanted to get ahold of her," Dolores said to presenters Evan Real and Danny Murphy.

"It might have saved Jennifer’s life this season that I had somebody," she continued. "I think I actually did save Jennifer’s life," Paulie acknowledged.

Viewers will have to wait and see more of Season 13 to find out if Jennifer and Dolores can make peace. 'The Real Housewives of New Jersey' airs every Wednesday on Bravo at 9 PM ET.
