ANDY COHEN: Coming up on
the 3-part "Valley" Reunion...

Thank you.

-Ready for this? Nervous?
-I'm everything.

Bye, guys.

-Love you.
-Smells like burnt hair in here.

[cellphone rings]

Hello?
No, I'm at the "Valley" Reunion.

-It's gonna be great.
-What's up, Andy?

-Hey, Luke.
-How you doing?

I think I'm gonna
lose a nipple today.

No one told me
when mine was out.

Wow, you already have makeup on.

I know.

No.

[villainous music plays]

-You all right?
-I'm ready to go to war.

Ugh! I'm a nervous wreck.

Oh, I'm hopefully gonna be
seated in the back so that

nobody talks to me. [laughs]
-No, you're not.

See how it's falling?
I want that.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Let's get into it. It's gonna be
a long fucking day.

ANDY: Jax, are you and Brittany
gonna get a prenup?

JAX: No.

-No.
-No? Why not?

[voice echoing] Because I'm
gonna be with her forever.

ANDY: [voice echoing] Is she
gonna be with you forever?

[voice echoing] Yes.

I will not touch that dirty dick
with a 10-inch pole.

It's not what
you said four months ago.

You knew we were filming
whenever you did these things.

I'm not gonna play a role.
I'm not an actor.

You degraded me constantly.

You made me
literally lose my sparkle.

[under breath]
God, with the fucking sparkle.

***

I want to be in love with you,
but I don't know if I can.

She went this way, and I'm
trying to make my way to her,

and she's going further
that way.

Come on.
A married woman with a child

asking a single guy for advice
about her husband?

-That's wildly inappropriate.
-Wildly inappropriate?

You told our client
that you wanted to eat her out.

Get that sale.

Janet, you have transformed
yourself. How'd you do that?

-Adderall and Pilates.
-[laughter]

I want to know about the gay guy
that was Zelle-ing Jesse money.

-I can tell you all about him.
-Were you, like,

blowing him for money?
-Don't look at me.

Who on this stage is still
in the boys chat?

You are a clown, dude.
You're a total clown.

-Are you kidding me?
-You were, like, snake liar.

If they have that footage,
they should show it.

-They will.
-Crazy.

You're, like, kind of
the Stassi Schroeder,

and you're kind of
the Lala Kent,

and you're kind of the Scheana.
-Are you doing this right now?

This man put me down,
body-shamed me,

Believe it or not, I know
some people think I'm not human.

I'm the devil.

Are you still in love
with Brittany?

[dramatic music playing]

Are you still in love with Jax?

Hey, everybody. Welcome to
"The Valley" Season 2 Reunion.

I'm Andy Cohen,
reuniting for the first time

with the stars of everyone's
favorite SoCal soap opera.

Wow. This is gonna be fun.
Uh, Brittany, great to see you.

You, too.

Will tonight be the longest time

that you've spent with Jax
in the last year?

-Yes.
-Wow.

Jax, how does it feel
to be wearing clothes

that aren't merch from your bar?

-[laughs] Uh, good.
-[laughter]

ANDY: Is that a conscious
decision on your part?

You know,
you gotta support the bar.

Okay. Michelle, I heard

you moved in
with your boyfriend Aaron.

-How's it going?
-MICHELLE: Amazing.

-Good.
-We have Isabella

50% of the time,
and she really is happy.

Excellent.

That's not true.

-ANDY: Uh, hey, Jesse.
-Hi.

We saw you in
your tighty whities this season.

I've since ordered
new underwear.

Zack told me
they were a little too baggy.

-Droopy drawers.
-What's going on?

So, yeah, I went a little more
high cut brief now--

-Calvins, obviously.
-Okay. Very good.

-Hi, Kristen.
-KRISTEN: Hi.

-You look so beautiful pregnant.
-Thank you. Thank you.

-How far along are you?
-33 weeks and three days.

-Wow.
-Don't stress me out.

My water could break.
No, I'm just kidding.

-Okay.
-[laughter]

How are you feeling about
being here, Luke?

Uh, good. Actually,
I'm feeling a little unprepared

because we don't have a go bag
for the hospital with us.

-No, we don't.
-[laughter]

ANDY: Nia, you and Danny
went for it.

-[laughter]
-We went for it. Number four.

Baby number four
will be here soon.

-NIA: Yes.
-How far along are you?

-I'm almost 34 weeks. Yeah.
-Congratulations.

-Wow.
-Danny, how many times

are we gonna hear you say,
"Four under four"?

-Four under four.
-[sighs heavily]

-Quite a bit. Quite a bit.
-Yeah.

Zack, how did Benji enjoy
your Scrotox?

Um, I thought
he would have noticed it more.

-Yeah.
-But apparently he didn't.

-[laughter]
-Okay. Hi, Jasmine.

-Hi.
-You're engaged.

-Yes.
-Congratulations.

-Thank you.
-Yay.

-[applause]
-When is the big date?

-Uh, next summer.
-Love a long engagement.

-Hi, Janet.
-Hi.

You have transformed yourself.

-Lost a lot of baby weight.
-How'd you do that?

-Adderall and Pilates.
-[laughter]

JASMINE: That's real.

-Hey, Jason.
-Hey, Andy.

You wearing your wedding ring
today?

I'm wearing my wedding ring
on me, yes.

Excellent. I wanna dive in.

Uh, you know, Kristen, you have
called yourself an empath.

I have to say, you may have been
the voice of reason this season.

-Who would have thunk? Growth.
-Not me.

-Growth.
-[laughter]

That's our favorite word
right now.

-It is.
-[laughter]

It feels like Crazy Kristen
might truly be retired,

-She's a mom now.
-That vir--you know.

-Yes.
-There's still, like, some,

but it's like
a different kind of crazy.

-[laughter]
-How does that feel?

I had one moment
that I was not proud of.

-Okay.
-So if I can just

start this off
with an apology to Janet

for just the crap
that was flying out of my mouth

about, like, "beat your ass"
or "knock you out."

I've never been so mad.

Don't make me knock
your ass out.

-Like, seriously, don't.
-Knock me out, Kristen.

-Knock me out.
-You're a fucking fan, bitch.

I would never, ever,
and that was

just so not my best moment,
and also calling you a whore

because that's just
obviously not true.

Um, but the decibels
of my voice,

that high-pitched screaming--

I looked at Luke
right after we watched it,

and I said, "Was that crazy?"

-And he goes, "Yeah, kinda."
-ANDY: Right.

I was like,
"Thank you for your honesty."

-Okay, note to self. So...
-Okay.

-I appreciate the apology.
-That's a good way to start.

Well, I wonder, you know,
Jax and Brittany, um,

what is the status
of your divorce?

Hopefully it's happening soon.

He called me the other day
and said that he didn't know

if he was gonna get
kicked off the show,

so he was prolonging it in case

he needed to get alimony
from me.

Hmm.

-[exhales deeply]
-That's...somewhat true.

-Brittany doesn't lie.
-What did you say then?

Okay. I was prolonging it
because of the podcast feed.

-That's what--
-That's not what you said.

Let's start this off with truth.

-I am telling the truth.
-Jax.

-She doesn't lie.
-JAX: I'm--I'm not--

That is verbatim
what you said to me.

-What?
-Don't act like

you didn't say that to me.

Then we'll agree with you,
what you said.

See?

KRISTEN: All righty.

-[sighs]
-Um...Jesse and Michelle,

what are your goals for tonight?
Anything?

I know.

Well, you know, I think
there was this, you know,

constant battle of who's
gonna win? Who's gonna win?

I never was trying to win.
There's no winning with you.

-Well, you were trying.
-No, I wasn't.

So let's be honest.
You were trying to win.

Win what?

Michelle,
you said to people that we know,

"No matter what I do,
everyone loves Jesse."

So what were you trying to do?

You have this charm, and you
can turn it on to people,

and so people think you're
funny, and people like you.

-That's all I'm saying.
-Okay, but what were you trying

to do to get people
to not love me?

I don't care if people
love you or people hate you.

I know the real you.

Okay, well, that was
the comment that you made,

so I just wanted to get some--

And you've made
a lot of other comments.

JESSE: I have.

Um, well, a lot happened
this season on "The Valley."

It was full of high highs
and dramatic lows.

There was divorce, dysfunction,
but also a surprise engagement

and two new babies on the way.

Through everything, this group
faced it all together.

And I want to start by talking
about the two new additions

to the family
that are gonna be here soon.

-Mm!
-Kristen, we followed along

with your struggles
in your fertility journey.

Tell me about the experience
of being pregnant

now that you're about
to have your first baby.

Well, now that I'm near the end,

I'm like, it's gonna be
so strange to not be pregnant.

I feel like
I've been pregnant forever.

But watching back the episodes,

it was really difficult, like,
seeing how distraught we were.

-Yeah.
-And then I just feel so lucky.

How soon
after the show wrapped

did you find out
that you were pregnant?

Two weeks later?

-That sounds about right, yeah.
-Yeah.

Yeah, about two weeks later.

That's great. Luke, how have
Kristen's moods been?

-[laughter]
-Better now.

-JASMINE: Right?
-First trimester wasn't fun.

-Second trimester was--
-Absolute hell.

Was pretty okay. And now
she's just in a lot of pain.

-And, uh...
-We had, like, a good 10 weeks.

-Yeah.
-Like, 20 to 30 weeks,

I was just like, life is great.
Baby's kicking. Yes.

So in the end,
what was it that--

that you think
helped you get pregnant?

The hormones, for sure, and then
the decision to do IUI came,

really, at the last minute.

It was just, like, an extra
10% chance that would help us.

So we decided, let's--why not?

You have a wedding
to plan as well.

-Where are we with that?
-Yeah. [laughs] Nowhere near...

BRITTANY: She doesn't ever
talk about it, honestly.

-She hates stuff like that.
-[laughter]

-Not till after the baby.
-Yeah.

Well, we want to
enjoy being engaged, too.

-Yeah.
-BRITTANY: Yeah.

Because we haven't gotten
to do that.

Right. Janet, you and Kristen
have obviously had

your ups and downs.
How's she gonna do as a mom?

I think she's gonna be
a great mom.

She's the best dog mom
in the world.

And that, I think,
is the first big test,

you know, of taking care of
something and loving something.

And I think
she's gonna do a great job.

Thank you.

Well, there must have been
something in the water

in the Valley that week,

because just as Kristen and Luke
were conceiving,

their fertile friends,
Danny and Nia

were getting pregnant
with baby number four.

-What?!
-Fertile friends.

Uh, Nia, this is
your third pregnancy.

-You're pregnant?
-[laughter]

How has the third time
been for you?

It's been great.

Um, my second pregnancy
had so many complications

and so many scares
that this, in comparison,

is just very peaceful.

And I'm grateful
'cause I get to enjoy it.

And it's the last one
instead of having

all the ups and downs
like I did before.

Danny, we heard
you complain a lot

about how little sleep you were
getting with the three kids.

-Yes.
-Why do this to yourself?

-[laughter]
-I didn't.

-Why put yourself through it?
-I didn't. She leg-locked me.

-[laughter]
-That's a joke, by the way.

She's a fourth degree
black belt, so...

-This is true.
-Is a vasectomy in your future?

-Should be.
-Or are you gonna go

for five under five?
-I was just gonna say,

if anybody else wants--

guys, wanna be
a part of a vasectomy, uh...

So Jax definitely needs one.

Danny and I are gonna
hold hands.

You wouldn't even do
Scrotox with me.

I'm not gonna do
a vasectomy with you.

We're gonna hold hands
and go in together.

Why? do you wanna
get a vasectomy?

-Oh, yeah, yeah.
-You do. Really?

-That's a good idea.
-He's gonna have 20 baby mamas

if he doesn't.
-Ooh.

-Do you use birth control?
-Do I use birth control?

-No.
-Yeah, are condoms

a thing for you?
-Yeah. Um...

-Condoms are birth control.
-Condoms, they're called.

-Oh, uh, I'm not really--
-Like, what's a condom?

-You have to explain it to him.
-He's disgusting.

I will not touch that dirty dick
with a 10-inch pole.

Okay.

-Whoo.
-That's not what you said

four months ago when we were out
at the aquarium and you're like,

"You think we should
hook up one more time?"

You said that at Hooters
four months ago.

-Doubtful.
-So you were drunk, too.

But now that I know everything
that you've done and everything

you've got going on down there,

there's no possible way
I would touch you.

You literally hooked up
with a guy who was

hooking up with porn stars.
-You do that, too!

You're with OnlyFans models
and porn stars yourself.

The condoms
all over the floor and the...

-Hey, at least I use 'em.
-JANET: Amen. Safe sex.

Okay.

***

ANDY: Coming up
on "The Valley" Reunion...

JESSE: My life is a mess.
I spoke to my attorney.

Wait, aren't
you representing yourself?

Yeah.

***

-Even Jax is saying it.
-What?

-Janet looks great.
-Yeah, you do.

-Thanks.
-You look amazing.

If you count the baby,
I lost 70 pounds.

That's amazing.
I put on 35, so... [laughs]

STAGE MANAGER: [filtered voice]
Look at Andy.

Returning five, four,
three to the jib, two...

Welcome back to "The Valley"
Season 2 Reunion.

Kristen, have you and Nia bonded
a lot during your pregnancies?

Oh, yes. I-I don't know
what I would do without her.

-Wow.
-Like, from just, like,

the fertility journey alone,
which everyone

got to see on the show...
-Yeah.

...through the whole pregnancy,
and already she's telling me--

helping me with, like,
postpartum, giving birth.

Like, it's the best thing
I could ask for.

Nia, you were really open
about your struggles

with postpartum depression.
-Mm-hmm.

Are you nervous that that could
be a reality for you again?

No, I'm like,
where's the wood to knock on?

Right.

Um, I didn't have
any postpartum depression

with my first pregnancy.
I think it was just twins

and, like,
all the extra hormones

maybe with the second.

So I'm hoping I don't have
to deal with it again.

Uh, but I know that's also
something that's chemical

and can be out of your control,
but I know I have

a great support system
and great friends,

so either way, we'll be okay.
-Regarding your body image,

it seems like you put
so much pressure on yourself.

-Mm-hmm.
-And it kind of breaks my heart.

My number one focus
would be my breasts.

They used to be
beautiful and perky and great,

and now I feel like they're down
to my belly button.

Um, and then, like, my next
concern is kind of my stomach.

Whew. Um...I mean,
just being completely honest,

like, we live in L.A.

I've been in the entertainment
industry for quite some time,

so I do
still feel that pressure.

Um, and I think it's okay to
want to feel good in your skin,

um, and also
give yourself grace.

Like, I really do
try to find the balance.

Nia, are you planning
a mommy makeover?

-I can't wait. Oh, my gosh.
-[laughter]

-Do it.
-I'll do it with you.

-Thank you.
-I'll do it with you.

Okay, great.
We can all go together.

-I'll do it with you.
-[laughter]

-What do you wanna have done?
-I mean, for me,

after breastfeeding four babies,

I can't wait to just feel good,
you know?

Uh, Kristen and Nia,
your due dates are a week apart.

One week apart.

You guys could give birth
on the same day.

-Yes.
-I'm down for that.

And Zack wants us
to have adjoining rooms

so he can get content...
-On both.

-...and, like, go...
-And just visit both of us.

-And just go back and forth.
-[laughter]

Are you delivering
in the same hospital?

-Yes.
-Yes.

-Yeah. Yeah.
-You are. Wow.

Michelle,
seeing Kristen and Nia,

is it giving you baby fever?

Sometimes yes, sometimes no.

[laughter]

I remember not sleeping
and your back hurting.

-I don't miss that.
-Have you and Aaron talked

about having children
or getting married?

He's always mentioned it,
and he's amazing with Isabella.

He wants multiple.
I said that wasn't gonna happen.

-I said that from the beginning.
-[laughter]

-But, yeah, I'm open to it.
-You think you'll get engaged?

Um, there's no rush,
but that's the goal.

Well, this season,
we saw not one

but two married couples

reach their breaking point
and file for divorce.

I wanna start
with Jesse and Michelle.

Michelle, last season,
we saw your relationship

on the rocks and Jesse fighting
to keep the marriage together.

What was the tipping point
that made you leave?

It was not one specific thing.
It was a lot of things.

It was just, I was so tired
of every day

being the same thing with you.

You were always diminishing me
and putting me down.

And there was
so many other things.

That's just the bare minimum.

And I was just like,
why do I want to be married

to somebody that talks to me
and treats me like this

every single day?

And finally we had
an anniversary,

and I said, "Am I gonna feel
like this until the day I die?"

No, and so I was scared,
but I asked him for a divorce.

Jesse, we saw
you and Michelle struggling, uh,

to co-parent this season.
Has it gotten any better?

I think we're pretty good
when it comes

to decisions for Isabella.

I know that
she weaponizes Isabella.

-No, I don't.
-I weaponize Isabella.

-Yeah, you do.
-I really don't.

-Yeah, you do.
-No, I don't.

Read comments online.
You weaponize your daughter.

-No, I do not.
-Well, excuse me.

-It's not up to the commenters.
-No, I know. I get it.

-And I do the same.
-I love my daughter,

and I have never used
our daughter.

Explain what you said to my mom.

I said, "If you're not
gonna allow Isabella

to see my mom,
who's going to die,

she will not be flying to Boston
for Christmas

and spending a week in Boston."

-"Ever again"...
-Yeah.

-...is how you ended it.
-Exactly.

NIA: I would feel the same way,
though.

I think she should
have said that.

If my mom was dying,
I would feel the same way.

-That was messed up.
-Okay, well...

Find a way to have empathy
for her for that.

I know. I understand, and she
knows the truth of that story.

Yeah, and then--
then what happened? It worked.

And that's how
I have to talk to you.

I have to treat you that way.

But you still weaponized
Isabella by using her to--

-Her mother was dying.
-I understand. The truth is,

I never said she couldn't
see her dying mother.

She planned a trip
to go to Italy

with her boyfriend
for two weeks.

-Yeah. But even before that.
-She wanted her sister

to take the baby for a week
and then me take her for a week.

I hired a behavioral therapist
to teach us...

We hired
a behavioral therapist. We. We.

...teach us how to talk about
mortality with a 4-year-old.

-Okay.
-Yes.

And they told you that
she needed to see my mom.

-A hundred percent.
-They needed--and they had

to tell you that you needed
to give me grace, and you had

to do all these things,
which you didn't do.

Okay.

Michelle, what's
the status of the divorce?

Um... [sighs] so we have
a custody agreement.

We've been trying
to work on a settlement.

I have a lawyer. He does not.
It has been a--

You don't have a lawyer?

No, it's been very expensive
for me...

Don't you need a lawyer?

-...the last six months.
-ANDY: No?

He represents himself,
so he thinks he knows the law.

I've watched "Suits"
three times.

-[laughs] I was about to say.
-Oh, my God.

I'm currently watching it
right now.

I was about to say,
you watch "Suits"?

You think Jesse
could pass the bar?

It should be
a relatively clean divorce.

There's no assets,
so what's the issue?

He got mad that I spent
any money during marriage,

so he wanted me to pay him back
money I spent during marriage.

No, that's not how it went.

That's actually
exactly how it went,

and there's
a million other things

that we don't have to talk
about, But he just wanted me--

Oh, we're gonna talk about 'em.
That's what the reunion is for.

Okay. You wanted me to pay you
a lot of money to divorce you.

That's ultimately
what it came down to.

JESSE: Okay.

Um, is there something
about the wedding that is--

that is at issue?

So we had--we had had
the conversation.

She said, "Jesse was making more
money than me at the time."

-Right--
-He wants Michelle

to pay him back
half the money for the wedding.

-Yes.
-Yeah.

-You do?
-Can we just say that?

-Who paid for the wedding?
-Yep. I know.

We're like,
let's say what it was.

-I paid for the wedding.
-You paid for the wedding?

-JESSE: Yeah.
-I-I-I paid about...40 per--

$10,000.

-No, I didn't.
-How much was the wedding?

-I sent the spreadsheet to you.
-How much was the wedding?

-By the way, our wedding was--
-150.

-$150,000?
-Yeah.

-Yeah, 55 people.
-And you paid for it.

-Oh, my God.
-And at the time, were you

happy to pay for it?
-We discussed splitting it.

-No, we didn't.
-Yeah, we did.

-No, we didn't.
-Now he wants her

to pay him back.
-Now he wants her

to pay him back.
-Now you want her to pay

for the wedding? I mean...
-So here's the thing.

It's like giving back presents.
You can't do that.

-Yeah.
-Our entire divorce, sadly,

and this is what I was gonna
say, has become tit for tat.

-Sounds like it.
-And, you know, she wants me

to pay her back for a Napa trip,
so I want her to pay back--

I don't want you
to pay anything back.

-I actually--can I just--
-Why don't you guys

just call it even?
-Can I just say--

-Let him have it.
-She's been asking that.

Let me just--let me
just finish. Let me finish.

Well, at least say the truth
when you're speaking.

-So, Andy.
-Yes.

So what I was working on this
week when I got her discovery,

I was like, I am--
-My discovery?

-This war of attrition...
-ANDY: Yes.

...is exhausting.
Like, I'm done.

-Okay.
-So I reached out

to her attorney
about how to move forward,

because I want her
to move forward with Aaron.

My life is a mess.

I wanna start putting out
fires where I can.

-Okay.
-I spoke to my attorney.

-You don't have an attorney.
-You know, there's, uh...

Wait, aren't
you representing yourself?

-Yeah. Yeah.
-So you spoke to yourself?

-So you spoke to yourself?
-No, I have a--

-[laughter]
-I have a team of consultants

that I work with.
-Is that Jason?

I'm not on the team.
I'm not on the team.

[laughter]

All right,
we're gonna be right back.

Coming up next...

Jax, do you think
it's gonna be hard for you

when Brittany
starts dating a man,

and she introduces him to Cruz?

[sighs]

***

I forgot, Jax, you were
down there. You're so quiet.

-Wow. Can I run to the restroom?
-I'm scared. That's why.

-[Janet laughs]
-[chuckles]

STAGE MANAGER: [filtered voice]
Everybody looking at Andy.

We are back.
Jesse, how are things

with your girlfriend
in Orange County?

Uh, they're good.

Do you two watch
"Baywatch" together?

[laughter]

Uh, we do not, no.

[laughter]

Michelle,
how is your relationship

with Jesse's girlfriend?

Do you know her? Do you
intersect with her at all?

I don't have any sort
of relationship with her,

nor do I want to.

Do you hear from her ever?

I...

Especially after last summer,
I asked to stop contacting me.

I do not want any communication.

My girlfriend made the decision,
probably about--

I don't know, maybe a month
after we started dating,

to reach out to Michelle, to set
boundaries, mother to mother.

I mean, a month
into the relationship--

that seems pretty new.

You've been
dating her for a month?

Yeah, because we were--
we were together for a month,

and she was spending
a lot of time with Isabella,

so she wanted to know
mother to mother.

And what I told Jesse,
and our agreement was,

these are him and I
conversations.

Aaron doesn't
need to be involved.

She doesn't need to be involved.
The decisions are between us.

You guys had agreed to not have
anyone around your child?

-Yeah.
-And Michelle did not have

Aaron around Isabella ever,

and you had Isabella around her
and never told Michelle

and then tried to get mad
at Michelle because

she finally wanted
to have Aaron around,

and you said no
because he was a man.

-JESSE: So--
-But yet you had her

stay the night with Isabella.
-Braid her hair.

-Yeah.
-And Isabella tells her

that she's braiding her hair
the next day.

So you were the one
that messed up first.

Well, I'm glad that you guys
have the one side

of the narrative.
-But is that not what happened?

-So the story is...
-[laughter]

-Oh, my gosh!
-Jesse's story. Jesse's story.

If you want--
If you want the other side--

-I just had to say it quick.
-You want the other side?

Well, I just--I know
for a fact what happened.

Michelle came up to me--
Michelle came up to me and said,

"I will never put my daughter
in an unsafe position.

I can introduce her
to whoever I want."

And I said, okay,
that's what I can do also.

And I will let you know
when the time is right,

and--and you can even meet him
if you want because

you were trying to tell me,
"You're never gonna introduce

a man to our daughter."
-I saw the messages myself.

Yeah, what I said is I felt
it was different introducing

a little girl
to a girl who's also a mother,

as opposed to a little girl
meeting a 35-year-old guy...

-That's control, Jesse.
-The rules are not the same.

-Exactly.
-...who had a roommate when

Michelle started dating him.
-That's the frustration.

-The rules are not the same.
-And Michelle had been

dating Aaron much longer.

I just thought it was different,
and it--

It might be.
But you know what? It was...

I mean,
my little girl meets...guys.

You just wanted to be
in a relationship for a while

before you introduce another--
another partner.

What did you make of the rumors

that your girlfriend was saying
negative things about you?

I don't believe it.
You know what I mean?

She kind of holds my feet
to the fire, and I love that.

Can I just tell you one thing?

We were at, uh,
Melissa's birthday party...

-Yeah.
-...at TomTom.

I don't think she, like,
likes you.

-Okay.
-Like--

Why do you not think that
Jesse's girlfriend likes him?

She just talks horribly
about him.

Actually felt bad for you
because the way

she spoke about you was like
she did not like him at all.

Like, what was she--
what was she, like--

-Very dismissive.
-Yeah.

-"We're kind of together."
-Does that concern you at all?

-No.
-I mean, do you think she's--

BRITTANY: She says
she doesn't sleep with him.

ANDY: Do you think
she's making this up?

BRITTANY: You know I'm not.

I mean, it fits a perfect
narrative for Michelle.

You know I'm not making
that up. I promise you.

I felt--
I've actually felt bad.

Well, I honestly,
I appreciate you feeling bad.

Yeah.

But don't worry about me.
I'm fine.

Janet, you mentioned
in Santa Barbara that she was

threatening legal stuff?

That's where it turned for me.
She wanted to silence Michelle

from talking
about the "Baywatch" thing

and a lot
of other bullet points.

No, so it was a cease and desist
letter, not a lawsuit.

She didn't sign a contract.

She didn't take money
like Aaron did.

-Aaron didn't take a dollar.
-Okay, but he certainly--

-Aaron didn't take--
-But he certainly--

certainly showed up quite a bit.
-He didn't even--

-Well, he didn't do it for her.
-Which is great.

If you're gonna date somebody
on reality TV, it's important.

Nobody's holding a gun
to her head to date you.

And Jason's advice was
don't date somebody...

-Yeah.
-...who agreed to share

their life on camera...

Oh, Scheana was
very vocal about it.

...if she feels very private
about it.

Scheana called my girlfriend
and said, "No one will like you

as long as you're with Jesse."
That's what she said.

Jesse, do you think Michelle is
anxious to finalize her divorce

with you so she can get married
to Aaron and start a new family?

If that's the next step,
that's fine.

Jax, hearing all of this,
do you think it's gonna be hard

for you when Brittany
starts dating a man,

and she introduces him to Cruz?
-[chuckles]

-Yeah.
-Yes.

How are you gonna
to deal with that?

I don't know. Um--

Andy, he starts a fight with me
every single day

about who I talk to
and who I'm around every day.

Why do you have
any jurisdiction

about who she's talking to?
-I don't. I don't.

It's just--
This is just my mentality.

I'm trying to work on it.
I really am.

Just keep it to yourself.
Don't say it to her.

-I know.
-Yeah.

-I get triggered, and I just--
-Do you have a therapist?

-I do.
-Do you go to that therapist?

-Yeah, every Monday.
-Really?

Yeah. I've been
to four different therapists,

and they don't work out.

This is the first one
that's actually worked out.

There were many
that you weren't just up to.

No, I was going
to a lot of 'em.

I went from going
to a community college,

working two jobs,
and being a normal guy

to now I'm living
this rock star lifestyle.

I can't be faithful.
I'm ashamed about this.

This is like--it's like
a sexual problem for me.

It is. It's like
it's embarrassing.

-Like a sex addict?
-Some people do drugs.

Some people drink alcohol.

This would be
probably one of my things.

So repeat after me.
"I have all this anger."

-I have all this anger.
-"So I burst out."

So I burst out.

-"And I hurt people."
-And I hurt people.

I'm on the right path,
and I'm not talking about it.

I'm not like, "Well,
I'm changed, and I'm this."

-I'm just doing it for myself.
-Yeah.

I know he's done so much,
and he has changed so much.

And I do trust him again,
but there's still, like,

a little bit of me
that doesn't trust him.

Actually, we--if you remember

through the years
of "Vanderpump,"

I had, like, two or three
that got in trouble.

-There was one.
-Well, there was a Reiki healer.

-Yeah.
-I mean, there was a--I mean...

You're 100% right.
I was anti-therapy.

I'm like, I'm not gonna
just dish out my personal stuff.

She's been telling me to get
help for many, many years,

and I-I didn't listen at all.

Going to the rehab, which...
[inhales deeply]

...was very eye-opening,

I wish I would have done it
a long time ago.

Me, too.

I'm not saying it would have
helped my marriage.

-Right.
-But it would have helped me.

Have his Monday
therapy sessions improved...

-She's aware that I go.
-...anything for you, Brittany?

-No.
-ANDY: No.

Jesse, I wanna talk
about your budding bromance

with Kristen and Luke.

You reached out to Kristen
with an apology

at the beginning of this summer.
Why?

Kristen sent me
the most gracious text message.

I was like, "Wow,
that's very, very big of her

to take the first step."

And I started to just think
about what my role played

in what happened last year.

Shut the fuck up!
You walked into my house.

All I'm doing is repeating--

-Shut the fuck up!
-Jesse, you shut the fuck up!

Sit your fucking ass
down right now.

What the fuck
did you just say to me?

-What are you saying to me?
-Hey! What the...

-What do you say to me?!
-Problem's with your wife!

I'll fucking get you!

Kristen, what had you seen
in Jesse prior to the apology

that made you open
to a friendship?

I mean, when he asked me
to come over,

that was just sheer curiosity.

Like, I had to know
and I had to go,

and especially because
it was just me,

and Luke was kind of like,

"Mm, do you want me to go
for support?"

And I said, like,
"I can handle it."

-You want me to call security?
-Yeah.

-[laughter]
-Within our conversation,

something else that he said
to me that really, I think,

hit me the hardest was that
he didn't realize how triggering

certain things can be
for people.

Example, like him
putting his fists on the table.

I think this is all on you,
Kristen.

And I--And I wish you didn't
bring it to my front door

-Or from Zack.
-You know what the problem is?

But yes.

Do you know what the problem is?

She should
not have brought it up.

Everybody shut the fuck up!
Michelle's gonna talk.

To him, didn't mean
very much, but he was like,

"I didn't realize with my past
with exes,

that could be something
that totally sets me off

for, like, almost no reason."
-Mm-hmm.

I was like,
"Wow, that's so genuine.

You really are listening." And
there was no "I'm sorry, but..."

So it made it really easy
to give him a chance.

Michelle, what did you make
of Jesse's apology to Kristen

and their friendship now?

I thought it was
very ironic and interesting.

I know what
you thought of her before.

I know what you used to say.

And what
I thought of him before.

Yeah. He knew that talking
to you and befriending you

would make me upset
and turn the whole situation.

There's a plan behind that.

But you know he doesn't speak
ill about you in front of me.

And if he were to,
it wouldn't fly with me.

Yeah, I believe
that he manipulates you.

Not easily manipulated, though.

Like, I consciously
make a choice.

[chuckles]

Michelle, you told Jesse
that he loves to cry

so people think that you are
a cold, insensitive person.

Yeah, well, I am naturally
just, like, very guarded.

And it's very hard for me
to cry. He can cry on demand.

We were both trying to win
and one up each other,

and I think whatever power
I have left, I...

[voice breaking]
like, give it to you

to do whatever you want with it,

say whatever you want about me
'cause I'm just so tired.

It's--It's fucking overwhelming
right now. [sniffles]

It's gonna be easier
to connect with somebody

if you see a crying man
being vulnerable.

I think the conversation was
one of the most raw, vulnerable,

honest from both of you
in that moment.

-That conversation was...
-Yeah, and it went real south,

like, the same day.
-It went south, yeah.

It did. Jesse, have you always
been a big crier?

I've seen "Rudy" 40 times,
and I cry every single time

they carry him
off the field at the end,

so, yeah,
it's just how I've always been.

You think you could eke out
some tears tonight?

Uh... [chuckles]
There'll be some tears tonight.

-I can guarantee it.
-But will they be real?

Shady.

-They're always real.
-I will say it was interesting

seeing a conversation
between you guys.

You started crying, and then
she said, like, "Come on."

And you--it--they dried up
rather quickly.

-What conversation was that?
-The scheduling.

I don't wanna be away
for two holidays from Isabella.

I just don't.

You love to cry.

I might get aggravated, and I
might get, like, resentful,

but you're so angry.

I was like, oh,
suddenly the tears are gone.

JESSE: Those tears were
like the first holidays

since we separated
that we wouldn't be together.

At the time we were filming,
you guys had only been

separated for less than a year
at that point, right?

-Yeah.
-I think it's pretty reasonable

that unless you're saying
or people are saying

Jesse's a total sociopath,
that, like, he would have tears.

Like, it's an emotional
situation for anybody, right?

Yeah, exactly. I agree.

***

ANDY: Coming up...

Michelle, you told the girls

that Jesse had spent
all your money and is broke.

Yeah.

I mean, I seem to be
living fine right now.

Who's paying your rent?

***

We are back with the gang
from "The Valley."

Nia, I heard about
your new house in Santa Clarita.

-Oh, he got me.
-He won.

Yeah.

How was Danny
able to convince you?

You know,
it's the house and the space.

Anytime I think about, like,
oh, we're in Santa Clarita,

I kinda get down,
but we have five bedrooms.

[laughs]

Danny keeps saying
it's 20 minutes away.

-How far is it from--
-It is not 20 minutes.

-No, it's not.
-You're lying to yourself.

When we went
to Brittany's house for...

-BRITTANY: Cruz's birthday.
-Cruz's birthday.

...from our house
in Santa Clarita,

it took 18 minutes.

-Okay.
-We're closer to the Valley.

That was a Saturday.
On a Friday afternoon...

-18 minutes!
-1 hour.

18 minutes!

Jasmine,
did you sell them the house?

-No.
-No.

I don't work that territory.

-You don't work. Oh, okay.
-Just kidding.

-All right.
-[laughs] I'm just kidding.

As multiple marriages were
coming apart at the seams,

a thread known
as "the boys chat"

was going strong,

fueled by drama, scandal,
and rumors about Michelle.

Jax, for all of us
who are not lucky enough

to be on the boys chat,
pull back the curtain for us.

What--What kinds of topics
are y'all discussing?

-JAX: Well, we started--
-Dirty.

We started
at Schwartz's wedding.

-ANDY: Okay.
-That's where it started.

Oh, you're gonna make me cry.

-Let's try not to cry just yet.
-I know.

***

-You look good.
-Look good, too, man.

-You're doing okay.
-Cutie.

[chuckles]

-[whispers] We did it.
-LISA: Oh, puppies.

It kind of
just started out as, like,

you know, uh, all the guys
talking to each other.

'Cause we were all, like, living
in little--I think it was,

like, little houses
on the property at the time.

So we were just all
communicating...

-ANDY: Okay.
-Sending pictures

of, like, stripper vaginas
to each other.

-Not in the beginning.
-And degrading women 24/7.

Yeah.

Okay, who on this stage is
still in the boys chat?

Well, I was on it at one point,
and I literally got out

because of
exactly what she's saying.

-One vagina, Zack's out.
-[laughter]

Okay, so really,
it's only Jesse and you

that are in the boys chat here?
-Correct.

Danny, you're not in it anymore?

-Uh, no, he kicked me out.
-You got kicked out?

-Jax kicked me out after he--
-Lucky you.

Jesse was trying to say

that Michelle was hooking up
with a billionaire for money.

***

Did he actually say that?

This was...said.

It's okay. Listen, we know
it's not true, Michelle.

This is gonna come back to me
really bad.

It is. But it's too late.
It was said,

and you know you gotta own it.
-We know it's not true.

-We know it's not true. Girl.
-And you gotta--you said it.

Brittany, uh,
when you and Jax were together,

what kinds of things
did you see in the boys chat?

Oh, he showed me everything.

He would show me
Jesse's messages.

He would talk about how horrible
Jesse was and all this and that.

Like, he did not like Jesse,
I don't think, like, at all.

He was showing, like, all these
naked girls and everything.

And there was just a lot
of dirty, nasty things in there.

It was--It's locker room talk.

-Okay?
-Yeah.

Danny, you broke the first rule
of the boys chat.

Don't speak about the boys chat.

[laughs]

Um, why did you tell Luke
that Jesse said Michelle

was sleeping with a billionaire
for $1,500 a night?

[child babbles]

Hand to God, I...

obviously had my mic on.

We were talking
and having a conversation

about Jesse and Michelle.

-It was wrapped.
-You thought it was wrapped.

I didn't know that
there was a camera behind me.

That's why, literally,
I'm whispering

after we were talking
about Jesse.

Jesse, why did
you say that about Michelle

in the first place?

-Um...
-Did you really believe it?

No, I never believed it.
And I just blurted it out.

And I regret--the second
I sent it, I regretted it.

Michelle,
you told the girls that Jesse

had spent all your money
and is broke.

Yeah.

I mean, I seem to be living fine
right now, and she--

-Who's paying your rent?
-And she is--

Uh, I am paying my rent and
have been since you moved out.

Who has been lending
you money to pay your rent?

You talked at the Zen party

about being
overwhelmed financially.

-Yeah.
-It's okay to admit it.

-Do you still feel that way?
-It's, um...

It's okay to admit it.

It's double the expenses
with half the income.

And we sat
down in the living room,

talked about her moving out,
and we had actually talked

about the two of us
finding a new place.

What happened was you said
I had to leave the house,

and you were never gonna leave
'cause it was "your house,"

even though we both
rent the house.

I never once said
you had to leave.

And you said, "I'm not leaving,
over my dead body,

and you sleep downstairs."

So I started sleeping downstairs
while you were

sleeping in the master bedroom.
-Yeah.

Then you said,
"We have a lease agreement,

so even if you move out,
you have to pay me rent."

So what did I do?
I tried to live there

so I didn't have
to pay two rents.

It was unbearable.
So finally I found a place.

I bought new furniture,
and I was paying two rents.

-That's what happened.
-Okay.

Jesse, Michelle said that

through the course
of your marriage,

the more money you got,
the douchier you got.

-[chuckles]
-Did money make you douchey?

-Um, I don't--
-Just say yes.

To be honest,
I think I was pretty douchey

when I was a caddy
at the golf course

making $150 a loop.
-He used to have a tongue ring,

so I think
he's always been a douche.

-You had a tongue ring?
-I had a tongue ring, yeah.

-I had a tongue ring, too.
-When you married him...

-Oh, you did wear it?
-Yes.

-Oh, no.
-I had one, too.

-Now I can't make fun of Jesse.
-[laughter]

-It was popular then.
-DANNY: Not for dudes.

-No.
-[laughter]

We need to take a break.
We'll be right back.

I was, like, 18 or 19.

ANDY: Coming up next...

When you're in a toxic
relationship for so long,

you just don't have
any interest anymore.

We barely had sex for, like,
the past three years

of our relationship.
-That's correct.

So why would I be like,
"Yeah, he's great in bed!"?

***

* Should get your number *

* I'll show you everything
that you've been missing *

No.

See, they charge.

I don't make anything. I--

You told everyone
when we gave birth.

Oh, I'm talking about the show.

I'm talking about the show.
I don't do that.

-Why would I do that?
-I don't know.

You guys--You guys are the ones
that go and live on Reddit

and leak shit.
I don't leak shit.

I've been doing this
for 10 years.

JANET:
I don't leak things. I read.

STAGE MANAGER: So we're
gonna start with a bump in.

We'll have everybody look
towards Andy.

We are back
with "The Valley" Reunion,

and this season opened

with the shock of Jax
checking himself

into a mental health treatment
facility.

So I wanna start
at the beginning

and talk about what led
up to that.

So, Brittany, just days before
filming started this season,

you and Jax were separated

but talking about
getting back together.

Then you had a fight
at your house

that changed everything.

I wanna discuss
what set Jax off.

The text messages
between you and Julian...

-Mm-hmm.
-Jax's friend and Lala's ex.

-Mm-hmm.
-Right?

JAX: Julian and I were friends.

We were hanging out
all the time.

Um, so how soon after
your separation from Jax

did you start seeing Julian?

Probably like a month.
Pretty quick.

-And, Jax, what were the rules?
-Quicker than that.

No, it wasn't.

What were the rules that you
and Brittany established

about dating
inside your friend group?

I mean, honestly,
I don't think we really

set a rule on the friend thing.
-Mnh-mnh.

You just automatically assume.

I think it was a little sooner
than a month.

I don't know,
but I just think...

[sighs heavily]
it was just hurtful.

And I went
against what I said, too.

I had somebody at my house,
which is not right.

-BRITTANY: Multiple people.
-I'm not trying to start

a war here.
It was just, that's what

was hurtful to me,
and this is what made me spiral.

He was extremely aggressive.

-Yes. That's true.
-He threw the coffee table.

It landed on my knee.
It turned black immediately.

He threw both barstools.

He threw my Stanley cup
and broke it.

He threw my phone and broke it.
He threw my laptop and broke it.

He threw me
into the rose bushes. He--

I didn't throw you
in the rose bushes.

Yes, you did. It's on
my Ring camera doorbell.

I'd never throw you
in the rose bushes.

-KRISTEN: Yeah.
-Yes, you did.

-No, I didn't.
-Yes, you did.

Everybody, my close friends
up here have seen the videos.

-How long did you--
-Sorry, it makes me mad.

-No, you're good.
-How long did you date Julian?

-We never, like, dated.
-ANDY: Okay. Hanging out.

We were just, like, hooking up
a couple times a week.

And I will--another thing I need
to say about that. Whatever.

Maybe it was weird that
I hooked up with somebody

that was around
the friend group,

but my confidence
was at an all-time low.

This man degraded me,
put me down,

body-shamed me constantly.

Okay? Julian gave me attention
that I needed in that moment.

He made me feel sexy.
He made me feel beautiful.

He gave me some confidence back.

While he was dating five
other girls at the same time.

It doesn't matter!
He was what I needed because

you made me
literally lose my sparkle.

I lost a lot of my personality
being with you.

-Mm-hmm.
-And everybody knows it.

I'm not arguing with you.
Did you see me arguing with you?

You're going...
[mockingly] "Lost your sparkle."

I just--enough
with the "sparkle" word.

It's like, come on. I get it.
I understand.

-You made her feel like shit.
-Because that's how I--

-That's how I talk about myself.
-I understand. I know, I know.

-I am very, very sorry.
-I mean, I had your son,

and then you body-shamed me for
stretch marks. Like, it didn't--

-I didn't body-shame you.
-JASMINE: Yes, you did.

-I never said that.
-BRITTANY: Jax, yes, you did.

-ZACK: Yes, you did.
-I had your child.

-Your beautiful child.
-Listen. Zip it down there.

All right? You're not part
of this. Keep your mouth shut.

Jax, we've seen the
text messages. We've seen it.

-ANDY: So, Jax--
-What are you talking about?

-We got to see it firsthand.
-He won't stop denying it.

ZACK:
So always comes for me. Always.

Literally called me a tree trunk
because I had stretch marks.

-Maybe apologize?
-I am very sorry about all this.

-It's just like, I--
-Are you very sorry about your--

I'm sorry about all of this,
to be honest.

This is not how I wanted this.
The last thing I wanted

for anybody to see
was how this all got,

and I couldn't control it.
-On "Watch What Happens Live,

Brittany didn't give
your sexual prowess

the highest marks, Jax.

There was times when
he was about a 7 or an 8,

but majority of the time,
no stamina, no nothing.

-[audience exclaiming]
-I'd say a 2 or 3.

[laughing] Why would she,
though? It's her ex-husband.

So I didn't say, "Always."
You said--

When you're in a toxic
relationship for so long,

and there's just--
you--you just don't

have any interest anymore.
-Drugs and alcohol.

-Like, and--
-He did not touch me for years

and did not make me
feel good about myself.

He put me down.
We barely had sex for, like,

the past three years
of our relationship.

So why would I be like,
"Yeah, he's great in bed!"?

-[laughter]
-"Great in bed."

I pushed my wife away.
I pushed her away.

And I did everything in my power
to make her leave me.

And--And, you know,
I caused so much pain

and--and so much drama
over the years.

And the alcohol and the drugs
was just the icing to the cake.

And I think--and I don't know
if you'll agree with me,

but when it really
started to get bad

was when I lost my job
with "Vanderpump."

Because not only that happened,
COVID happened.

My wife's pregnant, and I'm
freaking out financially.

What am I gonna do?
How am I gonna handle this?

-And Brittany was--
-You started turning on me

because I was the one
making money instead of him.

Yeah, I was--Let me--Let me--
I was getting there.

Instead of being happy for me,
he held it over my head

and held it against me.
-I did, a hundred percent.

So I started--
She was making money still.

Shouldn't you have been happy
that she was bringing money in?

Yes. Yes. But as I was,
like, as a man, you just wanna

be able to support your family,
and I was--

But we weren't in competition.
We were a team.

I know. I was so angry
about the fact that,

you know, I was parted ways
with "Vanderpump"

that I was taking
all that anger out on her.

And not only I had the baby
on the way, we had COVID.

Like, where's the money
gonna come from?

Me. [scoffs]

I'm not playing the victim
at all.

But between the drugs
and the alcohol and the anger,

I mean, Kristen used
to tell me all the time,

like, "Jax,
you have a fucking problem.

You're angry. The vein
would pop out of your head."

-Yeah.
-I couldn't...

I couldn't--I couldn't
control it. I couldn't cont--

BRITTANY: The Julian incident
was not an isolated incident.

He has acted that way
many times to me,

and I am such
a forgiving person.

And I loved him so much,

and I was trying to make
our marriage work for years

that I brushed it off,

And I forgave him
every time that he apologized

and promised me he would change,
promised me he would get better.

I really believed him
because I loved him so much.

[voice breaking]
Like, you can never deny that

I tried everything
I possibly could

to make this relationship work.

And you treated me
worse than anybody else.

And I was the only one
that loved you enough

to make you get help.
It's really sad.

ANDY: What is the agreement
you have about co-parenting?

I have full custody, and--but
our divorce is not final yet.

But whenever the divorce
is final,

I'm going to allow him
to have him

every Wednesday
and every other weekend.

And then, like, if I need
to go get my nails done

or something like that,
like, he can watch him.

Like, I'm not gonna ever not let
him have his son as long as

he's passing his drug test.
-And I agree.

Has Cruz been to your new condo?

Yes, she allows me
to see him now.

It took some time,
which I totally understand.

Another thing, too,
is I really--

and I think Brittany
can agree with me.

I don't want to uproot my son
from his house.

-[laughs] Ooh.
-So a lot of the times--

Yet I had to be the one
to take our autistic son

and move him from Airbnb
and Airbnb

because you would not move
the house...

-No, I understand--
-..knowing that he

needs stability,
knowing everything.

But your ego was so big that
you made me and Cruz move out.

And then you didn't pay
the mortgage for seven months.

Not the only the mortgage.
I didn't pay my car note.

I didn't pay anything.
I just let it all go.

And I was like, I'm done.

***

ANDY: Coming up
after the break...

He went through my trash cans...

-Yeah.
-...went through drawers,

counting condoms.
Your personality is so sporadic.

So if it isn't the drugs,
if it isn't alcohol,

if it isn't this, why are you
still just as crazy as before?

***

JAX: Do you have a Kleenex?

There's a box of them somewhere.

STAGE MANAGER:
All right, let's...

-Thank you.
-Oh, I'm nervous.

I'm shaking and shaking.
I get so angry and yell so much.

Yeah.

I wanna be
able to, like, control.

-Don't give him your power.
-Yeah.

STAGE MANAGER: Five, four,
three to the jib, two...

We are back
with "The Valley" Reunion.

After the explosive fight
with Brittany,

Jax made the decision
to seek help

at a mental health
treatment facility.

Jax, what made
you decide to seek help?

Many reasons.
Um, my job was on the line.

-Um, my son.
-Your job with the show?

Yeah.

I was such in a bad place,
and I didn't wanna go.

I didn't think I needed help.

But thank God,
because my job and my son--

those are the two most
important things to me.

So, yeah, when you start
taking those away,

it's like, Jesus,
you need to--you need to go.

Jax, you actually
went to rehab twice.

-Yes.
-Yeah, I relapsed, yeah.

-When did you relapse?
-I was two weeks after, maybe.

No, it was, like,
it was, like, the week of.

-The week that he got out.
-Okay.

But the thing was
with the first time is he acted

like drugs and alcohol
were not a problem.

Drugs and alcohol, I believe,
are not the big problem.

I feel like you're masking hurt

whatever you're going through,
fighting and walking.

Like, all the stuff
that I was doing to Brittany,

and I was angry, and I just--

I would use drugs and alcohol to
take it away for a couple hours.

You have been sober
for how long?

156 days today.

-Congratulations.
-Thank you.

-Sober from everything.
-Everything.

-Except for weed, which is fine.
-Except for weed.

I'm not even--
I don't care about that.

I can't stop smoking weed.
It's not gonna happen.

-[laughter]
-We're all okay with that.

And you believe
that he is sober.

So he does pass his drug test.
I've given him--

I've got, like, a pack
of a hundred drug tests,

and I have given them
to him sporadically.

-Twice. Twice.
-Yeah. But you also--

I get a text every Monday
from the guy.

So I made it a point
to make sure

they call Brittany every Monday
when I take my test

because I want her
to know that I'm passing.

But who is the person
that made that happen?

Nobody made it happen.
It was the right thing to do.

-Are you on steroids?
-I'm not on steroids.

Your attitude and your
personality is so sporadic.

So if it isn't the drugs,
if it isn't alcohol,

if it isn't this, why are you
still just as crazy as before?

You're saying--You're saying
his anger has not improved?

I don't think I'm just as crazy.

-No!
-And so you--you worked

on your anger,
apparently, in rehab.

-I'm trying to work on my anger.
-Okay.

I'm still very trying
to work on that.

But it sounds like what she's
saying is it hasn't changed.

I think it's gotten
a lot better.

-ANDY: You do.
-Do you agree

it's gotten a lot better?
-Some days it's okay,

and then the next day,
it is absolute hell.

Like whenever it was Easter and
he came over, that day was fine.

Very next day, he started
a huge fight with me

for absolutely no reason.

Went through my trash cans,
went through drawers,

my private drawers, everything,

trying to find if I had been
hooking up with other guys.

-Counting condoms.
-Yes.

He was extremely abusive,
extremely aggressive.

Yes.

Why should she not be allowed
to be seeing someone?

-She should. She should.
-The disrespect is insane.

I would assume
that you would agree

that if you were on steroids,

it would be detrimental
to your anger issues.

-That's why I'm worried.
-I'm not on anything.

-[scoffs]
-Keep testing me,

and I want you to test me.
It holds me accountable.

In my head,
if I ever try to slip again,

I know that you're gonna
test me anytime you want.

And I want you
to test me anytime.

Not only for you, but for me,
to hold me accountable.

BRITTANY: Yes.

[voice breaking]
Because I don't wanna touch

drugs and alcohol again.
It's fucked up my life.

Yeah.

And... [sniffles]

It's tough.

Like, it's fucking hard.

And I know it's hard for her,
and I'm not--

She's the victim here, not me.
Okay? But I...

I'm a human being, too,
believe it or not.

I know some people think
I'm not human. I'm the devil.

I get it. But I still have
fucking feelings, too. I do.

This is the hardest
fucking thing to do this

in front of God and everybody,
and everyone's gonna see this.

You knew we were filming
whenever you did these things.

Yeah, I knew that, but I'm not--
I'm not thinking about filming.

That's why our show
is the real shit.

BRITTANY: Exactly.

Because I put everything
out there.

[dramatic music swells]

ANDY: Next week it's Part 2
of "The Valley" Reunion.

If you're apologizing to me
and you mean it,

you should be able
to look me in the eye.

'Cause I'm embarrassed
and ashamed of who I am.

-I didn't have a boyfriend.
-You were seeing someone.

Cheating and cheaters--
that's my one thing.

That's really interesting,

because as soon as
I asked for a divorce,

you started sleeping
with a married woman.

-So which one is it?
-Oh!

Your apology to me
felt like shit.

I thought we were--
we were good.

You are a clown, dude.
You're a total clown.

Are you kidding me?
I'm a clown?

I am not kidding you.
The fact that you won't

even admit that you have
any issues...

-Jason.
-Blame everybody.

Blame everybody
for you being a douchebag.
