The latest Next Gen NYC Season 1 Episode 8, titled Gutter Balls & Breakup Calls, featured the cast members having a pancake breakfast. It was after Brooks' birthday trip. Fans must remember how there was tension between Gia, Riley, and Georgia. After Georgia asked their opinions about her opening a new club, she felt Riley criticized her.
Emira asked Riley while she was quiet. She responded that she had learned her lesson about "speaking."
Recalling how she didn't criticize but shared her opinion because she felt Georgia was her friend, Riley said:
"I said it because I thought me and Georgia were, like, friends. And if my friend was like, What do you think about this idea? I would be honest because I thought we were friends."
Next Gen NYC star Gia told Riley that maybe there was a "nicer way" of saying it.
"Babe, I don't want you to feel like you can't say anything. Like I want you to know like your voice matters. I honestly think it's just the way you say things. Just how sometimes when I say things, you don't like my approach. It's the same thing," said Gia.
However, Gia's boyfriend, Christian's opinion was different than hers. He said Riley could talk however she wanted to. If anyone didn't like her opinion, then they should not talk to her.
