Previously on "The Valley"...

Let's play Truth or Dare.

Have you ever gotten it up
the butt?

-[music warps down]
-[laughter]

No, Janet!

It's your guys' trip,
but, like, being in one home

with my ex-husband
is a little weird.

-He rented the house.
-I know. That's why

I'm more like,
no, I don't want him to be

banished from the house.

I'm...Yeah.

It's very hurtful. Why don't
my friends see my side?

I'm going through

just as much as Brittany,
if not even worse.

[crying]

Never.

Janet, you have been
a sh--ty ass friend.

You are a ----ing vibe killer.
You're exhausting.

You give Karen energy,
and I'm ----ing done with it.

Daniel came in and then, like,
chugged out of a tequila bottle.

-Mm-hmm.
-I was in a relationship

for years where somebody had
drug and alcohol problems.

Like, that's kind of, like,
really a big thing to say,

like, if you have a problem
with Daniel's like drinking.

-I was not drunk.
-I feel like she wants

to stir the pot,
and I'm like, but why?

See, that's what I'm...

Uh, Jax just wrote me.
"The home is in foreclosure,

and you will be responsible."

[voice breaks] What in the world
did I do to deserve any of this?

* I'm all right *

* I'm all right *

* Everything is all right *

* Everything is all right *

* I'm all right *

***

* Hold up *

[horn blares]

***

-* Wait a minute *
-* Ah *

-Oh, my God.
-We're actually doing this.

-Turn. Twist.
-Yay! Look at this.

Look at us go.
Do I have brakes on these?

I have--I think--no, you have
the professional ones.

-Oh, my God.
-Aah! Oh, my God. I'm scared.

-Just roll.
-I'm rolling.

-Roll.
-Rolling.

-Oh, please don't hit me.
-Oh, sh--, I can't stop.

-Oh, my God. I can't stop.
-[horn blares]

Aah! [bleep]

***

BRITTANY: I think he gets out
on the 21st.

I hope Jax does get better
in some way so that Cruz has

a good relationship
with a better man.

BRITTANY: Right now, like,
he's dead to me.

And I was, like, looking
around the house to see if

I could find my wedding ring,
and I don't know where it is.

Have you checked
his eBay page recently?

He was selling
my Jenny Craig bags!

-You're joking.
-[laughter]

For, like, $30! I'm not kidding.

What is the resale value
of that on eBay?

Apparently $30.

[laughter]

***

ZACK: What's up, bitches?

-KRISTEN: Hi.
-Happy housewarming.

Thanks, honey.

Although we are just moving in,

Luke and I are gonna be hosting
our little housewarming party.

Might as well
ignore some of the mess

and enjoy this house
a little bit.

-You're good.
-Whatever was left in my bar...

Thank you so much.
I love it.

...that I didn't want
to drink for myself, so...

Do you wanna put it
on the bar cart?

-Sure.
-Hello!

Hi!

Hello, hello, hello!

Oh, my God.
You didn't wear linen today.

I had linen pants on,
but they were a little hot.

-[laughter]
-Hey.

Oh, it looks so much better
black.

-Right?
-Yeah.

Caw-caw!

Did you bring a bathing suit?

Nobody told me anything
about bathing suits.

Oh, well, Kristen sent out
the invites.

Yeah. Great.

It's a peacock plant.
I don't know why.

I don't know what
a peacock plant is. I love it.

Me neither. But, you know,
you have a plant, so...

-Amazing.
-Housewarming party.

-Thank you, my angel.
-This is really cute.

-I know. And it's private so...
-I love it.

-...I love that.
-LUKE: So, what's new, man?

Anything, uh,
on the Michelle front?

I haven't talked to her at all.
I mean...

Dude, that's probably
for the best.

She's not coming tonight.
They're out of town.

-Yeah, I heard that.
-I'm not knocking. It's a party.

-I'm not knocking.
-Yeah. Do you knock or what?

Hi!

-Hi.
-Hi, baby.

How are you?

Thanks for having
this house party.

-Are you kidding?
-Of course.

Let me just say. [sighs]

Delicious? So good. So good.

Jenna and I have been friends
since I moved to L.A.

***

[camera shutter clicking]

Of course,
I met her through Scheana,

because
Scheana's like Kevin Bacon.

[bell dings]

It's always one degree
of Scheana Shay.

I'm so glad to see you.
I miss you so much.

-And you. Oh, it's so fun.
-Let's go have some fun.

-Did you do a spa day?
-Oh, my gosh.

-Did you do a little Botox?
-So, it wasn't Botox.

It was, uh...Scrotox.

-Scrotox?
-Yes.

-Have you ever heard of Scrotox?
-No.

Neither had I.

I don't know
what's going on here.

So, it's Botox for your scrotum.

What?

And apparently, it, like, feels,
like, really good during sex,

and it just
looks aesthetically better.

[snickering]

You know how, like, balls,
like, go up and down?

I just was like, you know what?

Let's just see what happens
when they stay down.

I am not getting Scrotox.

-MAN: Three, two, one.
-[exhales deeply]

-Good.
-[blows raspberry]

That one hurt.

Do they?

I guess I wanted to see what
it feels like to have old balls?

I don't know. [laughing]

[snorts]

Should I have brought you?
Jesse, would you have done it?

-The whole point...
-100%.

Mother----er! I thought
none of you would do it.

But I'm the weirdest
of the whole group, too.

Goddamnit.

See? No sight of salmonella.
You see that?

See how perfect that is?

So, leave it to the gay guy
to do the flowers? Yeah.

-Hi. How are you?
-Good. How are you?

-Good.
-Whoo.

This is so cute out here.

Kristen's over there
talking to Nia.

-Okay.
-And Luke's at the grill.

I'll wait.

DANNY: At this point,
Jason and I are pretty cool.

I really value our friendship
a lot.

So do I.

But I have some definite
frustration with Janet

saying things to attack me
and my character.

She likes to stir the pot.
She likes drama.

She likes getting reactions
out of people.

It's really just...malicious.

-So, how are you?
-Good. How are you feeling?

-I feel like some, like--
-I feel great.

You sure? Okay.

At the beach, I've never
seen Jason worked up like that.

She thinks we all talk sh--
about each other

because you're
the only one doing it.

It's not sh--. I'm saying that
was two years ago!

I can't believe that,
like, the biggest snake

in the grass has been
under my nose this whole time.

Okay, yes,
I'm the biggest snake.

He's hurt because sh-- was
said years ago, but, like,

I didn't bring this up,
and I don't care.

-We don't believe it. Like...
-Right.

I would never hurt him
like that.

The last time I saw Janet
and Jason was at the beach.

I wasn't happy. I felt like
I was a little ganged up on.

Are you gonna talk to Jason
if you get a chance?

Yeah.

But I've never really had
an issue

with Janet and Jason like this,
and I just wanna get over it.

Hey, I just have
one thing to say.

If possible, I would love
to have a conversation

with you two and Melissa
when she's in town.

Two adults--four adults,
if that's okay with you guys.

-Yep. That works for me.
-I would love that.

Okay. Perfect.
One step at a time.

Okay, good. All right,
well, have a good night.

-Okay.
-She can--

That was
a much better situation.

That was--Yeah, that was
a better approach.

-The first one was hot.
-Oh, do a trick.

Oh, wow. High five. Cheers.

-Okay.
-You guys got your hair did.

I've got salmon sperm
put on our face.

Yeah, so you feel like
you're glowing. Does it work?

And we all just look pretty.
I did, actually.

-Okay.
-Yeah.

Mm-hmm.

No...

You should.

JESSE: Is it about me or...

I mean, kind of. Yes/no.
So, I dated Aaron.

Who's Aaron?

-Michelle's boyfriend.
-Oh, that guy?

-How long ago was that?
-Uh...well, we dated twice.

-Okay.
-So, first time was, like...

five years ago?

And then maybe, like...

God, a year and a half ago,
briefly.

Interesting.

I had heard that, like,
a year and a half ago, they--

Michelle and him were together.

-Oh, wow.
-I don't know.

I'm still putting the clues
together,

but Michelle and I are not
in a good spot right now.

-I'm sorry.
-So, trying to figure it out.

Six months ago,
Super Bowl Sunday,

Luke comes up to me and says,
"Hey, I heard a story

that Michelle was seeing a guy
while you guys were married.

She couldn't get ahold of him.
She stopped by his house

and caught him
with another girl."

Is Jenna the girl?

The whole reason I found out
about them was, um...

friends of Jax ran into them
at a bar in West Hollywood

before anybody knew
that we were separated.

So, it was, like, a big, like,
why is Jesse's wife

kissing a guy at a bar
in West Hollywood?

I have always been convinced
that Aaron is...the guy,

if not one of multiple guys

that Michelle
cheated on me with.

So, this Jenna story starts
to line up with my timeline.

When I saw you, I was like,
all right, this is full circle.

-It's a small world, yeah.
-I was like, what are the odds?

It's wild out here.

I need to, like,
sit down with you and Nia...

-Yeah.
-...to figure out this trip.

Because with this move,
with everything, like,

-I feel so...
-I can't imagine, dude.

...in over my head
at the moment.

Yeah.

LUKE: Kristen's very difficult
to surprise,

and I am setting up a trip
to propose to her in Hawaii.

I just don't wanna
[bleep] it up.

-I want her to be surprised.
-I know. I know.

I want her to not see it coming.

Kristen is very good
at uncovering the truth.

Whatever you want to do,
I am there for it

because I care
about you guys that much.

So, we just have to keep
Detective Doute off the case.

Love you, bro.

All right, let's go out there.

Yeah. Yeah. Don't want anyone
getting suspicious.

Suspicious of what?!
We're not doing another Scrotox.

-We do have to go.
-Oh, you guys have to go now?

-I told the babysitter 11.
-Okay.

-10:46.
-Are you leaving? Bye.

-Bye.
-[coughs]

-Hold up.
-What is happening?

-Get...
-Are you okay?

You're gonna choke.
Don't choke! Heimlich!

-[continues coughing]
-Heimlich.

Did you literally just choke?
Heimlich!

Are you okay?

[laughter]

Oh, I gotta tell
you guys something.

Last night,
Jax came home for the mail.

-Yeah.
-You know that.

And he had, like, uncovered all
the cameras again and stuff.

And then me and mom were,
like, covering them back up.

And then he knew that I was
gonna be FaceTiming with Jenny.

-He's going to the hospital.
-What do you mean?

His blood pressure is,
like, super high.

God. Even as mad and angry
at him as I am,

I don't want anything
to happen to him.

They asked the actual therapist
who, like,

goes around places with him.
-Yeah.

She said that he made the girl--

the girl who answers
the phone--cry because

he told her if anybody calls,
to lie and act like

he is on his way to urgent care,
and she was sobbing, crying.

He made her, like, feel like
she had to tell people that.

And so the therapist had
to tell all of us the truth,

that he never went
to the hospital.

He manipulated
the front desk person...

-Yes. Yes.
-...to say he was having

a medical emergency?
-Yes.

I know for a fact
Jax is putting out

a completely different story,

and he wants
to sugarcoat everything

and make things look better
than they are

whenever, really,
I'm going through hell.

Also, he wrote me this,
like, really long email,

and he's told me that
the house is in foreclosure.

He could, like, actually
ruin my chances

of ever buying another home
or anything.

You wouldn't be able to get a
mortgage again for sure if you--

Yeah. Because my name is on it
just as much as his is.

And you would lose
all the money in the house.

I would lose the money
I put down,

the equity
that we that we put in.

Does he not realize that
that's, like, damaging to Cruz?

Oh, that's what I said.
But he also said,

"We're splitting
the podcast 50/50.

I'll do one week.
You do the next."

That is so disappointing after
what he was saying two days ago.

JAX: Brittany and I have
a very successful podcast.

I talked to my manager,

and she just gets
the full amount

until we pay off
what needs to be paid off.

-If he doesn't fix this...
-Lawyer, lawyer, lawyer.

...I'm ready to fight.

Coming up...

Kristen said, "Jasmine said that

you take your ring off
when you go out."

Me and her never had
a conversation about you guys.

***

-* I'm hot *
-* Whoo *

* What you know about it? *

* I'm hot *

-* Whoo *
-* What you know about it? *

* So fierce,
so knock it on over *

-* So fierce, so... *
-[doorbell rings]

[barking]

The highlight of your whole day.

[barking continues]

-Hi, you.
-Hi. How are you?

I'm good. How are you?

-Good.
-Do you want anything to drink?

I have flat water,
sparkling water.

-Sparkling, if you have.
-Yeah?

Yeah. Yeah, Isabella's--
she always asks questions.

I was driving her to school,
and she's like,

"Mommy,
why is Daddy's place bigger?"

I'm like, "All that matters is
you have a roof over your head.

She's like,
"You're right, Mommy."

Yeah. See,
you're teaching her things.

This is, like, gonna be
a well-rounded kid.

I have to, like,
undo what he does.

I just constantly have to teach.

-It gets exhausting, right?
-Yeah. She has his personality.

Yeah.

And I'm like, I'm not gonna
have an entitled child.

Every day is just work.

That part, I would say
is the hardest part

about co-parenting.

Because whatever Ocean wants to
do, "I wanna go swimming now,"

they go swimming now.

Like, I know when she's been
with him, 'cause we'll go

to Target, and she'll just throw
things in the cart.

-Yeah, same.
-And I'm like, no.

Does Jesse, like,
do you see similarities

and the same patterns
as your ex?

Yes. Yeah.

I didn't realize how,
like, sometimes

he was so disrespectful
to people,

and I always had
to just, like, brush it off.

Well, I think
you become desensitized.

I mean, my ex was not
really kind to many people,

and I always thought
it's 'cause he was insecure,

and it's like,
no, he's an asshole.

-Yeah.
-I cry every single day.

I feel like I've dealt
with so much bullsh--

that it's, like,
incredibly hard for me to cry.

Can I ask you a question?

'Cause there are times where
I wanna ask you about your mom

and how she's doing, but--
-Yeah.

-Do you prefer we don't ask...
-No, it's okay.

...and you can tell us
when you want to share?

No, I actually don't talk
about it a lot.

My mom got sick about a year ago

when I was going
through everything with Jessie.

She thought
she had food poisoning

and had to go to the doctor.

And she was diagnosed
with stage IV colon cancer.

So, she did her first treatment
of chemo, and it did not work.

So, then now
she's in her second treatment.

But the problem is
it's kind of everywhere now.

She's just like, by day...
[sighs heavily]

[voice breaking] It's just
killing her from the inside out.

I don't think I have
much longer with her.

It's been very hard for me.
[sniffles]

Because my mom is my best friend

and the one
who supports me the most.

-I love you.
-[chuckles]

I'm really sorry.

-[sighs] Thank you. [chuckles]
-[chuckles]

Holy [bleep].

[both chuckle]

I feel like I just got hit
by a bus.

[laughter]

[Michelle sighs]

* And I'm just going *

* Going through the motions *

* Sky so wide and open *

* My eternal getaway *

MELISSA: How are you?

-There's gonna be four of us?
-JASMINE: Yeah.

-Okay. Come in. Welcome.
-Thank you.

-All right.
-Yeah.

I guess I'll sit here.

Oh, this is a cute little booth.

-I know.
-We should go out more.

I know. [laughs]

A little nervous.

Yeah.

I hope this is peaceful.

I'll have a Tito's
and ginger ale.

And I'll take
a skinny spicy margarita.

-Thank you.
-Thank you.

All right,
my adrenaline is kicking in.

You wanna sit, or...

Hey.

-Hi.
-Hi. How are you?

-Good seeing you again.
-Hi. How are you guys?

-Hello.
-How are you?

Jasmine's someone who
I've had a friendship with

for more than eight years now
at this point.

I really wanna look her
in the eyes

and her look me in the eyes,
and, like, what's going on here?

This is weird.
I feel like two weeks ago,

this would have been
a super fun restaurant trip.

-Yeah.
-I know.

Not 100% sure what happened,
to be honest.

-Thank you.
-Thank you.

Thanks so much.

We're both really pretty
confused by a lot of stuff

that's happened
over the last few weeks.

When we
first learned about stuff,

it was
at Brittany's pool party.

Um, Kristen came over and said,
"Jasmine said that you take

your ring off when you go out"
or something like that.

And when I first heard it,
it was such, like,

an out of left field, like,
jarring comment that I'm like,

that doesn't make any sense.
I don't take my ring off.

Then I was kind of like, wait,
I don't really understand this.

Like, why was this said?
Why did Jasmine say this?

And, like, why would
she tell Kristen, who, like,

was not in a good place
at all with Janet?

Is there anything that I've
said so far that is inaccurate?

Some...yes,
because I never told Kristen.

I never talked about this.
I never repeated it.

At the party,

I could have sworn that you said
that you did, that--

Well, first of all, Kristen
did say that you told her.

I heard this, like,
two years ago.

-And you said that to Kristen?
-Yes.

Me and her never had
a conversation about

you guys and a ring or nothing.
-Ever. They--this is--

She came to us and said,
"Jasmine said this."

And then we're like, okay.
And that's why I was like,

Jasmine's my friend.
Call her in this conversation.

We never talked
about any of that.

-Okay. But--okay.
-But she is--she did blame you.

At the end of the day,

this conversation
is not focused on he said this.

We're here to squash things
with you guys because...

-Totally.
-Yeah.

...I promise you, wherever
the rumor started from,

it was not us who originated it.
-Swear to you guys. Swear.

I appreciate that, and I trust
and believe you guys truly.

I know you guys are good people.

There is another part that's
really still bugging me...

-MELISSA AND JASMINE: Yeah.
-...is at the beach...

-Oh.
-...it seemed like you had,

like, some really deep-seated
resentment toward Janet.

Um, I will say, like,
at that time, that's how I felt.

But, like, I don't think you're
a Karen or anything like that.

-Isn't your mom named Karen?
-Yes, Karen Denise Goode.

She goes by Denise
because she hates it.

Also, I looked up
the definition of Karen.

It was, like,
entitled something.

I was like, all right, I might
be a little guilty of that.

I think we all have
a little Karen.

-[laughs]
-I will apologize about that.

-I appreciate that.
-I think it was just more

in that moment, I think it was
just how I was feeling.

And then, like, being alone.
My brain is, like,

I was just so, like, heated.
-JASON: This makes sense to me.

Like, how do they think I can
do this? You know, I'm like--

If I would have known
at all that you felt like

it's two against one,
I would have been like,

"You guys talk."
Like, that was never--

-I'm--I'm really sorry.
-Actually, I'm honestly

kind of happy hearing how
you guys are talking about this.

You're coming from
the same place where we are,

where we're also like,
what happened to...

-Yeah. Yeah.
-...make us think

that we're
all against each other?

I've had a long history
of friendship with Jasmine,

and what I'm starting to see

is Jasmine's not
the mastermind here.

It feels like
she is just a mouth

for the actual mastermind,
which is Kristen.

-Can we hug it out?
-Yes, of course.

-I love you, Jason.
-Love you, too.

You know I love you.

I wanna be good with Janet
because I feel like

nobody wants to be
on Janet's bad side,

because it could be scary.
-[music warps down]

And I love them. They're,
like, one of my closest friends.

-All right, I love you guys.
-Should we just assume

that it was a miscommunication
from the start?

-Yes.
-I love you, too.

-I love you.
-You know I love you guys.

JANET:
Do we get to stay and eat?

[laughter]

Coming up...

-Is he stalking you?
-He was looking at me

through the cameras and stuff,
and then he was, like,

telling me what I was wearing
and different things.

-Oh, that's concerning.
-Yeah.

***

[roaring]

***

I'm pretty excited
to walk out that door.

I have anxiety.
I'm anxious. I'm scared.

But you know what? It's time.

I know I have a lot
of apologizing to do,

um, but I just hope
that they can see that,

you know what?
He's making the progress.

He's taking the steps.
He's trying.

[doorbell rings]

[gasps] It's here!

[dog barking]

Sissy, relax. Oh, my God.
[laughs]

Oh, my God. Okay.

***

* I never felt so good *

Hola.

-* I never felt so... *
-Hello!

Hi!

ZACK: Is an army coming over?
I'm confused.

My girlfriends and Zack
are coming over today

to help me pack up all
of Jax's sh-- because I don't

want him to have excuses
to keep coming over.

He's got
his new little condo now.

-This is amazing!
-[Brittany laughs]

I just need him to be gone.

Whoa!

[laughs]

MICHELLE:
Anything for me to eat?

Brittany and I certainly
have different taste buds.

She loves fast food.

Mmm. Yes.

-And I...
-[music warps down]

...do not like it.

-Hi, hi, hi!
-Oh, my God. So hot.

Hi. I'm starving.

So, if anybody says "Jax,"

you're taking a shot.

-I love it. [laughs]
-'Kay?

[laughter]

Since he does get out
on Thursday,

and today's Tuesday,

how about, um, Wednesday
we take you out for, like,

uh, like, a last night
before he's out of rehab?

And, like, like, let's just go
to Jax's before than he--

-One last night, though.
-Oh, you need to take a shot.

Hey! [laughs]

I'm-a get a chaser for this.

I had had this idea
for literally months now

to change the name of Jax's bar
to Britt's.

And then we'll just transform it
for one night before...

sh--head gets out.
-Yeah.

We want Brittany to know
that we support her,

we love her,
and we're in this together.

How do you feel
about seeing him?

I think it will, like,
break me, honestly.

-ZACK: I know.
-NIA: You need someone with you.

Like, you guys know that I,
like, really actually love him.

He can, like, bring me back in
a lot of the times,

but I feel like I'm being,
like, so strong, and I'm like...

-ZACK: You are.
-I can't do that.

-NIA: We're gonna support you.
-Yeah.

I wish that I was getting
the same support

that Brittany is getting.

I just think you're doing
the right thing protecting Cruz.

You've done a really, really
good job of it.

I am an amazing friend,

and I will drop
anything and everything

if one of my friends need help,
or they need something.

I am a ride-or-die
kind of person,

and so I don't feel that
in return.

***

We have not even went
upstairs yet.

Let's go. Let's get to work.

All right, let's do this.
Oh, my God.

Wait, do you want boxes,
or do you want bags?

Hey. Bags.
I really don't give a sh--.

* Hey, hey, you *

[laughs]

* Hey, hey, you *

-One shoe.
-One shoe?

Yeah. One shoe.

-Separate them.
-Yeah.

He can find a shoe
in another bag.

Yeah.

Separating his shoes,

it's like a way to get
Jax's brain working.

It's like how you work
with little toddlers,

and you're like,
"Okay, match this with this."

Let's be real. Cruz is more of
a man than Jax is these days.

* Hey, hey, you *

-Aw.
-No, no "aw"ing.

-* Hey, hey, you *
-This is too funny.

-We're packing for him.
-Loser!

Aw, his little jean jacket
that he wears all the time.

-[Brittany sniffling]
-Shut up.

What?

-You can say it out loud.
-Hug her. Hug her.

Aw. Stop. It's okay.

You don't have to do this
right now

if you don't want to,
if it's too much, you know?

You can go back downstairs
and just chill.

This is really, really hard.
I still love this guy.

Do you want us to do it,
and you go downstairs?

No, I'm fine. I'll be okay.

Like, those feelings aren't
gonna just disappear overnight.

I don't think this is
valid anymore.

-Aw.
-Don't do that. Just throw it.

-Just throw it in there.
-No, it's fine. Aw.

He's the father of my child.

We've been together
for 10 years.

Like, I have built a life
with him,

and I never in a million years
thought that I would be here.

I never thought
that we would even separate.

I love you so much.

Will you please be my wife?

[crying] Yes.

As much as it pains me,
what's actually

making me stay strong
in all of this is Cruz, my son.

Like, me, being happy

is gonna be so much better
for him in the long run.

Everybody grab a bag.

I feel like a naughty
Santa Claus right now, guys.

Get through the door.

Like, we're--we're scolding
a bad child and only

making sure he has coal.
-All right.

-And last...
-[music warps down]

...bag.

Zack, is this something
you do with your wiener?

No, I don't put my wiener
in things that are warm.

What? No, that's for eyeglasses.

[laughter]

Coming up...

-Let's go for a walk.
-We have nothing to hide.

-[laughs]
-Let's go for a walk.

-That's one.
-That's crazy.

-* I feel breathless *
-[horn blares]

* When you are running *

* Restless when you're still *

-Hello.
-Hello.

Hi. My name is
Brittany Cartwright.

-I have an appointment.
-Yes. Follow me.

Thank you. Okay.

You can sit here.

All righty. Thank you so much.

-Hello. Hi.
-Hi, Brittany. I'm Naz.

-Nice to meet you. Welcome.
-Brittany. Nice to meet you.

With Jax getting
out of the facility soon,

I'm meeting with a lawyer to try
to figure out what she thinks

about the situation, tell her
everything that's going on.

All my friends have been
begging me

to go see a lawyer
for months now,

and I think it's the right time,
before he gets out.

So, tell me what's going on.

Well, I have been married
since 2019.

We separated in January
of this year.

Okay.

We didn't, like,
legally separate, though.

We just kind of, like, I moved
into an Airbnb for a while,

and we just continue fighting.

Nothing's getting better.
So, I was just wondering,

you know, what I should do
to protect myself.

What led you to my office today?

Um, his blowups just getting
more and more aggressive.

Like, he's, like,
thrown furniture

and, like, punched walls
and stuff, but he hasn't, like,

laid his hands on me.
-Oh, wow.

-Yeah.
-Okay. Okay.

Really bad. Yeah.

-You need help.
-You need help!

I have to go to therapy
because of all the stuff

you've done to me!
I don't understand--

If you were that miserable,
you could have left years ago.

He is in rehab right now,
so he doesn't--

-Okay.
-He gets out tomorrow.

He still has been like,
rage-texting me.

Like, this just was
the other night before.

I had to block him.

Like, you can just,
like, tell how he talks to me.

He's so worried about me
being with guys.

How does he know
you're not home?

-Exactly.
-Is he stalking you?

He was looking at me
through the cameras and stuff.

And then he was, like,
telling me what I was wearing

and different things.
-Oh, that's concerning

-Yeah.
-...and disturbing.

-I don't like that.
-Yes. Yeah.

-This is a lot of text messages.
-Yeah.

-He's obsessed.
-Yeah, he is obsessed.

-It's not healthy for you.
-Yeah.

And he really needs to control
himself. This is not good.

I know.

Um, you do have a child
together?

Yeah. We have a son together,
and we own a home together.

-Okay.
-He stopped paying our mortgage

whenever I moved out,
and I didn't know that.

Did you have any conversations
before you moved out in January

about who was gonna pay what
and how much and for how long?

So, he's always paid
the mortgage,

and I've always paid
all the bills.

He was so far behind on
his taxes before we got married.

Like, I think it was, like,
$1.2 million

behind or something crazy.
-Oh, wow.

He was gonna go to jail
if I didn't, like, allow him

to put it on our house,
if that makes sense.

-Oh, my goodness. Okay.
-Yeah.

So, our mortgage went from,
like, $8,000 to--

it's at, like, $17,000
right now because of--

-Because of his arrears?
-Because of his stuff.

Oh, wow.

And they even went
into my bank account

and took $100,000
out of my bank account

just 'cause I was
married to him.

-Oh, my.
-Yeah.

That's not okay.

He got a lease at a condo
without telling me as well.

And now moving forward,
he wants me to take

over the house,
like, completely.

And at that point, you're gonna
start paying the mortgage

all on your own. Okay.
-Yep.

Uh, and continue to pay
all the other expenses

you've been paying?
-Mm-hmm.

So, what will his contribution
be financially?

-That's why I need help.
-I see.

Because I literally pay
for everything for my son.

Never asked him to pay anything
because he was

taking care of the mortgage
this whole time, I thought.

Yeah, he definitely has
a problem,

and this is, uh, not normal.

I'm kind of, like,
scared right now.

Um, I do think filing for
divorce, the sooner the better.

Just, I think, because
it will let him understand

that this marriage is over.

Yeah. Yeah.

I didn't come
into this meeting thinking

I was going to file for divorce,
but this is making me realize,

like, wow, this is bad,
and I need to get out of this.

I recommend you be
the first one filing.

-You be the petitioner.
-Yeah.

If you can do so, that would be
a tiny bit in your interest...

-Yes.
-...I would say.

I think I need to be--
I'm scared.

Like, I--
he's so all over the place.

I never know what
he's gonna throw at me.

I mean, could I start
the filing process today?

I can prepare
the petition today,

and I can go ahead and file
today or first thing tomorrow.

I'm just so terrified
that I'm gonna allow him

to slowly make his way
back into my life.

So, I really need to, like, go
ahead and rip the Band-Aid off,

get this process started,
and never look back.

Go for it.

-Oh, my gosh.
-Let's do this.

Oh, this is crazy.

I just know deep down that this
is the right next step to do.

I can't believe I haven't cried.
This is crazy.

You know why?
Because you're ready.

Yeah.

Those who are not ready are
the ones that typically cry.

-Yeah.
-I think you've had a good

seven, eight months
to process all this.

-Yeah.
-And I think having gone

through all the ugly stuff
you've gone through, it's like,

you know this is what you want.
-Yeah. I'm kind of feeling

a little relief, which is weird.
-Good. That's--no, that's also

a sign that you're ready.
-Yeah.

You're done.

***

Coming up...

Welcome to your bar, my love.

Wait, what have you guys done?

ALL: Welcome to Britt's!

***

* All working together *

* All working together *

***

It's perfect.

***

Yay!

-ZACK: Finally.
-NIA: Are you excited?

-[grunts]
-[squeals] Great day.

-I'm so excited.
-Look how pretty this looks.

This is incredible.
I saw the ladder out.

Do we need to, like, get that
sign up quick? Like, what's...

Oh, yeah, let's get that sign
up, because if she doesn't--

I don't want her
to come and see that.

Right. We have a little bit
of time for her,

but not, like, anybody else.
-Exactly.

My vision
for Britt's bar takeover

is to erase Jax from this bar.

-Yeah. Should we put them on?
-Yeah.

Every picture.

I have, like, pictures of her
to put in the frames. Yeah.

-That's a hot picture, though.
-It's a great picture.

Every essence of Jax
that I can find.

Guys, this is like--I'm...
I like it.

And if someone wants to say...

[mockingly] "Oh, he's in
a mental health facility.

He's so fra--"
[normal voice] He's not fragile.

Be very safe.

If I die doing this,
I swear to God...

Brittany will know
how much you love her.

What I'm willing to
go for friendship.

Jesus Christ. [sighs]

-Does that look like Britt's?
-It--It looks good.

-Let's keep it moving.
-JANET: Oh, my God.

-That's wild.
-Oh, my God.

We tried.
It's not perfect, but we tried.

I mean, I'm impressed.
You guys just did this.

Oh, my... [laughs] God.

All the pictures of, like,
Jax are down.

It's all pictures
of Brittany now.

This is smart.

I love it.
It's gonna piss him off,

which I love even more.

Welcome to Britt's.

JESSE: I'm sure this is
gonna go over well.

-Oh!
-Love it.

Oh, I love it.

[laughs] So...

Yeah, that's kind of
where I am on that.

I think it's gonna be
the opposite.

Jason thinking
Jax might think this is funny

is probably like me thinking
Michelle would think

it was funny
that I called her an escort.

Well, she's a hooker,
so it's fine.

I'm the mother
of your ----ing child!

Unfortunately, that didn't
resonate well. [chuckles]

JESSE: When is Brittany
getting here?

Um, 10, 15 minutes.
She's always a little late.

Okay, So I don't wanna, like,
talk about it too much since

we're gonna have an amazing,
fun night, but I'm very proud

of you for going to see
the divorce lawyer today.

Mm-hmm. I filed.

You did?

[chuckles] I know.

[laughs] Thank you.

-You always smell good.
-Yeah. I filed.

I don't--
I'm so ----ing proud of you.

I started kind of feeling
guilty afterwards.

I was like, oh, my God,
is it bad that, like,

I'm filing the day
before he leaves rehab?

That's on him, though.
He had many, many, many years...

-Yeah.
-...to go to therapy on his own.

-Mm-hmm.
-...to try anything,

the bare minimum.
-Yeah.

-And he didn't.
-Well, let's not tell everybody.

Like, obviously
don't say anything.

Oh, sh--. Okay. Kristen said
they're almost here.

Come on.
Let's all go by the back.

What? Here?

Yep, we're gonna go all
by the back,

and we're gonna, like,
plug in the sign.

[Brittany speaks indistinctly]

The car just pulled up.
They're getting out of the car.

What is today?
Oh, it's a Wednesday.

[laughs]

What? Shut the [bleep] up.

Shut up! Wait.

-Welcome to your bar, my love.
-Wait, what have you guys done?

-[squeals and laughs]
-Whoo!

-[laughs] Oh, my God.
-[laughs]

Oh, my God. Shut up. Oh!

ALL: Welcome to Britt's!

[cheering]

[laughs]

That is hilarious!

[laughter]

What the hell? Oh, my God.

-Welcome to Britt's.
-[laughs]

-Yay, it's Britt's.
-You all have the shirts on?

-Number one girl in the group!
-Oh, my God.

This was, like,
the sweetest thing ever.

All my friends know how much
I've been going through

and actually how much work
I put into this bar,

so to see that they changed it
to Britt's and, like,

did all of this for me
just to make me have

a good night before
Jax gets out tomorrow is so--

I think it's just amazing. Like,
I've got the best friends.

I love you.
Did you do all this?

-Of course.
-[laughs]

We just wanted to make sure
that you had,

like, a really special night

before somebody
gets out of somewhere

and comes back, because
we just love you so much.

Thank you! That was so sweet.

I love you guys.
Thank you so much.

-I love it.
-This is so awesome.

-Let's have fun.
-And we also wanna take you

through the rest of the bar
because there's more fun stuff.

BRITTANY: Oh, my God.
Jax is gonna die.

I get that. I was actually just
thinking that when I saw this.

I was like, are you feeling
like you didn't get the same...

Yeah.

I'm literally going
through the same exact thing,

if not worse.

Like, where is my support?

Can we join you guys?

Hi. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Get over here.

Just really hurts my feelings

to go through something
so tragic like a divorce

and a sick mother.

This is the time
that I really need my girls.

-To Brittany and Britt's bar!
-You guys!

[laughs]

-Cheers.
-Cheers!

Hello!

***

Chilled straight
from the bottle.

[indistinct conversations]

JESSE: It's clear that Danny
hides his drinking from Nia

because it upsets her when
he drinks. Tonight's the night.

There is a 99% success rate
that Darkside's coming out.

Can I do a Jameson
and ginger ale with, uh, lime?

[indistinct conversations]

Doing a little?

Whoo!

-No!
-Hey, Kristen, uh...

I want you to help
fill Kristen in.

-I just wanna ask--
-We kind of started talking.

Is there anything else,
like, that you have

resentment or is there
anything I'm unaware of?

I just wanna make sure
we're, like, solid and good.

I met with Janet
to squash things

after the whole ring rumor,

and I thought that Janet and I
were good.

I thought we were
on the same page.

Let's join our powers for good.

Let's get Britney out
of this sh-- situation.

But now I'm hearing from Scheana

that Janet has not
let this ring thing go

and is now talking sh--
about me again.

All this stuff happened
kind of recently.

I think we're moving
toward a good trajectory.

So, if we wanna clear the air,

you called Scheana immediately
or text her, I'm not sure,

and said shady ass sh--.
Then I'm like, well, what are

you saying about me
when I'm not around?

Like, that's where
my brain's at.

-I saw her later that day.
-That's what she said.

Like, we already had plans,
but we did talk.

Has Kristen Doute
ever apologized

for anything
in her ----ing life? No.

She's sorry that she got caught.
Girl came after my husband.

Good luck. You just put
a target on your back, bitch.

And I did say, like,
"How sure are you--"

But we literally
just had a lunch,

and then you immediately
run to Scheana.

Like, why are you just
talking about other things?

That's the story with Scheana.
That's the whole game

with telephone
that sucks in this group.

-Right.
-Yeah.

I'd rather you not talk
about other people, though.

You know, last summer,
I heard a lot

about Janet scheming
and manipulating.

But, you know, I never
really noticed too much of it

because it wasn't towards me.

-I'm pissed about it.
-I very much agree with you.

-Very, very much.
-And so I'm gonna call sh-- out.

But now I'm definitely
starting to see

what people are talking about.

I'm not the only one guilty
of, like,

talking about other things
'cause it's all woven...

No. No, no, no, no, no.

-That's what I'm saying.
-Listen, and I hear you guys

say that you guys
are good with Jasmine?

No, I didn't say we're not good.

NIA: She said, "We're good."
Daniel.

I did not say that.
I said we are good. We talked.

-You talked? Yeah. Yeah.
-Yeah, we talked.

We're good in that situation.
What else do we--

You're good in that situation
about the ring?

-Yeah, we're good.
-And we're not good

about other stuff?
-No.

It's like a couple drinks,
and all of a sudden a shot in,

it's like goes from being,
like, buzzed Danny

to Darkside Danny.

Daniel, you can't speak
for someone else.

Because you have
brought things up

and used Jasmine's name
and said Jasmine said this

and Jasmine said that.
-Yeah, we talked about that.

-Right?
-We talked about that.

I mean, I'm not stopping him.
He's not stopping his mouth.

-So, whatever.
-Yeah.

-Luke...
-I can't control him.

...I'm going with Nia
to the bar.

It's very clear
what's happening.

Danny is wasted,

jumping in a conversation
he would never jump in soberly.

I mean, Nia can't even
drag him out.

Obviously, this is
Darkside Danny at his finest.

Danny, just relax for a bit
'cause this is not gonna go...

-Wow.
-...how you think it's gonna go.

It's not my job
to tell him it's okay.

Drop this right now,
and we're good.

I don't know what's going on
with you right now, but it's...

-Where's Nia?
-What did you just say?

What do you call him,
Darkside Danny, whatever it is?

You're being ----ing weird
right now. Just relax.

Whatever.

***

JASON: You're being
----ing weird right now.

Just relax.

-Let's go for a walk.
-Take him.

-Take him outta here, Jesse.
-Let's go for a walk.

-Wow.
-It's not gonna be wow for him.

Not "wow," dude. "Wow" to you.
You're the "wow" guy.

JANET: We have nothing to hide.

-[laughs]
-Let's go for a walk.

-That's funny. That's funny.
-That's crazy.

My husband's not the one
out here grabbing asses.

Classic Janet, pointing fingers
at everyone else.

We just talked about you
talking about other people,

and you go firing stray bullets
at Danny again.

You don't get the point, Janet.
Stop talking about other people.

-And I was like, I didn't...
-No, we literally...

Good. 'Cause look what happened.

Yes...

Well, they protect each other
as a couple.

Really quick, the only thing--

I am frustrated

with Daniel that, like,
he kept poking at Janet.

I'm not participating in that.

But also it's kind of like,
who do you think you are?

Why are you coming
at my husband?

You're supposed to be
our friends,

and I just don't get it.

I don't know why she needs

to continue to come
at Daniel or us.

He's definitely
the biggest lightweight

in the group, male or female.
-Yes, I have spoken about

the things he did in this bar,
but so has everybody else.

Look at Janet just
going in right now.

What happened?
You know, just Janet's, like,

coming in Daniel's face, and I
just don't have time for that.

She lies. She just lies
and tries to stir the pot.

We need to go
because the Uber's here.

But again, it's her that's
trying to bring something up

out of nothing.
-Got it.

-Hasta luego.
-Okay, good night.

You have my phone?

***

I'm not the ass grabber.

He's mad at himself, but he's
misplacing the anger on me.

-Yeah. Yeah.
-That's what's happening.

And he's heard information
from other people about you

that is false.
-He's mad at himself because

he is a drinking problem,
and he comes to this bar

and does stuff
that he's embarrassed by,

and he's blaming me
for talking about it

instead of being mad at himself
for what he has done.

I'm not making up things
that he did. I'm not lying.

Maybe it's not my place,

but I've been showing Danny
a mirror of the truth.

You did this.

-Cheers. Love you.
-Cheers.

-We're still good.
-I know. Yes. I'm like...

I understand. I understand
everything that just happened.

-Yeah, yeah.
-Are you not drinking tonight?

-No.
-Good for you.

I got--I wanna be a little
clear-headed for tomorrow.

Yeah.

I'm picking Jax up
at rehab tomorrow.

I wanna pick you up.
Let me know the details.

Send me the address,
and I will, uh, I will be there.

The ----ing night before,

we are changing the name of
his bar that he's in love with,

covering his name and putting
Britt's name over it.

Fan ----ing-tastic.

Jax was very specific
about including Brittany

in the entire process.

-JAX: Okay.
-TVs here and here.

-TVs, okay.
-Wallpaper has to go.

Wallpaper. Leave that to you.

Oh, it looks so good!
Oh. [sighs]

Wow. We have a bar
in the Valley.

-[laughs]
-The only way I'm gonna do this

is if my wife's involved.

[cheering]

There's a clear divide now.
I think it's super sad,

and here we are,

trying to get him to regress
the second he gets out.

What is the plan for his stuff?

Yesterday all the girls
came over,

and we packed up everything.

I don't want him to come out,
see his sh-- packed up,

hear from somebody that,
you know,

there's shirts floating around
saying "Britt's"

and go on the attack,
you know, start attacking.

-I told the guys that--
-If he does that,

then it's just proof that
he's never gonna change.

When it comes
to me and Jax right now, like,

I...I got him by his balls.

'Cause I could do worse
if I wanted to,

and I could do less
if I wanted to.

-Yeah.
-So, like, he needs

to realize that and, like,

respect me for my decisions
that I'm making.

How much winning
do you have to do?

-You know what I mean?
-He's not gonna win against me.

-I'm sorry. He's not.
-I know. I know.

That's what I'm saying.
Everybody's thinking that--

-There's no comparison.
-We shall see.

T minus 12 hours and counting,
people.
