DUBLIN, IRELAND: The women of 'The Real Housewives of New Jersey' are in Ireland this season, and while the vacation was intended to be a reprieve from all the Garden State drama, fans are about to see an unexpected encounter between two foes. Dolores Catania has previously stated that the journey was 'emotional,' and the promo for the forthcoming episode confirms this.

The 'RHONJ' cast may have celebrated the final stretch before Teresa Giudice’s wedding, but the trip wasn't all peace, love, and Guinness-chugging. Teresa's relationships with Joe Gorga and Melissa Gorga were known to be strained prior to her marriage to Luis Ruelas. Teresa's only brother failed to appear at her wedding, and the writing was all over the "creepy" walls of the Irish castle. The April 18 episode of 'RHONJ' included some merry-go-round squabbling between newcomers Rachel Fuda and Danielle Cabral. Thankfully, Jennifer Aydin's sloppy and misinterpreted bit of humorous relief knocked us off track. Based on the promo for the forthcoming episode, the comedic relief is set to be amplified.

Teresa Giudice puts her trust in Irish Bachelor party traditions

In the teaser for the April 25 episode, Teresa and her bachelorette squad travel to a farm, where the instructor tells them to play the game of 'Catch the Cock.' Dolores sneered at Melissa as she walked behind her, adding, "That shouldn't be a problem for her at this." Margaret Josephs appeared to be dissatisfied that the 'cock' at this bachelorette celebration was a bird rather than a "dancing cock."

The instructor continues by telling the women that they are not catching the cock for no purpose. "It is a sign of good luck." He likens it to Irish folks rowing a boat for luck. He then calls the bride of the hour and inquires as to who she intends to bring inside the fence with her. She was quick to pick her sister-in-law, Melissa.

Melissa, who seems both astonished and uninterested, informs Teresa, "I want you to catch the cock all by yourself. I already caught your brother's c***"

Margaret Josephs calls Danielle Cabral a 'chicken'

The instructor cautions the ladies that once they have the bird in their hands, they must massage it softly. Jennifer Fessler tells the cameras that she has no fear of cocks because she has handled and traumatized enough of them. Teresa was able to grab the bird after a brief run and encouragement from her squad.

When the instructor asked if anybody else wanted to play the game, Margaret took advantage of the opportunity to slam Danielle, stating she is 'chicken', therefore she should. Rachel and Jennifer F attempted to play the game but in vain.

Season 13 of 'The Real Housewives of New Jersey' airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
