In premiere episode of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, the cast members that live in the Garden State are dealing with the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy.

It is apparent that the women are dealing with unresolved issues after their Season 4 reunion. Here is Bravo's official synopsis for episode 1 of season 5 titled, Garden State of Emergency:

Following an explosive reunion, the 'Wives get slammed by Hurricane Sandy, leaving their vacation homes as destroyed as their relationships. More than a year of silence widens the cracks between Teresa, Melissa, and Joe. Jacqueline faces her son's autism diagnosis, as Kathy learns the "art of war" from her sister, Rosie. Caroline has changed her address, but can't move far enough from the Giudice and Gorga drama. Her shocking offer to Joe Gorga could lead the 'Wives toward reconciliation or an all-out war.23

Kathy Wakile and Gorga spoke in a recent interview about the new season's highs and lows.

"There's a lot of laughs as well, a lot of good times as well," Wakile told Huffington Post Live. "[It] goes up and down throughout the season. It's not all good times; it's not all bad times. It's kind of like a roller coaster, it does a lot of ... peaks and valleys. That's family for you," she added.

Gorga, said she and her sister-in-law-cum-nemesis, Teresa Giudice, are getting along at the moment despite the troubles featured in the new trailer.

"We are in a good spot right now and we are friends and it's genuine," Gorga said. "It's crazy and Sandy does help us rebuild," she added. "We have some control over something and it is our family."

In the preview video titled, You're In Jersey, Toughen Up, Giudice and Gorga appear to be bonding while Jacqueline Laurita seems to be mending fences with her daughter Ashley. But by the end of the clip, there are tears and a violent brawl between both Giudice and Gorga's husbands.

Jennifer Dalton, who has been rumored to be possibly be a new housewife on the show, makes a brief appearance in the preview clip. TRHONJ original cast member Danielle Staub will not be returning to the drama-filled reality show.
