Wendy (00:01.058)
Hi, welcome to We Wine Whenever, I'm Wendy. We are going to recap the Valley, Season 2, Episode Number 7, Ring Around the Rumor.

Kelli (00:03.7)
I'm Kelly.

Wendy (00:13.938)
So we start out with Jasmine driving in the car, talking to her girlfriend about what Danny did on Halloween. And Danny said to her, why do you keep bringing this up? I apologize to you. And she said, well, it's happened to me, and I can bring this up until the day I die. Those were her exact words. I think she is.

Kelli (00:20.851)
on Halloween for the 25th time.

Kelli (00:38.569)
And I'm pretty sure she's going to.

Wendy (00:42.424)
Cause I mean, how many times during this episode did she bring it up?

Kelli (00:46.465)
too many and before I forget to mention this, I think we talked about it, I'm not sure. Did you watch The Bachelor?

Wendy (00:49.805)
Mm-hmm.

Wendy (00:55.682)
I didn't watch The Bachelor, but no, I didn't. But yeah, we didn't talk about this. You and I talked about it, but I don't think we mentioned it on here.

Kelli (00:58.411)
Okay.

Kelli (01:02.463)
Okay, so Nick Vile, and I had no idea, I just happened to like his podcast, he was a bachelor. And his season, Jasmine from the Valley was on. And I saw a clip, I don't know if it was the first night, I don't know if it was, it must have been early on in the season because there were a lot of girls there, I don't know if it was the first night or not. But she was trying to get his attention, she could not.

Wendy (01:10.316)
Yeah, I did know that.

Wendy (01:16.056)
that I did not know.

Kelli (01:30.561)
and she like went to interrupt him while he was talking to somebody and he very graciously was like, you know what? I do want to talk to you, but I'm just going to finish this conversation. Well, she went into a bit of a tailspin over it. I only saw a clip, like I said, I didn't watch it. So if any of our listeners watched it and have more information on it, please let us know. I just thought it was real interesting that she was on that because that had to be a while ago and.

Wendy (01:55.756)
It definitely had to be a while ago and we do know that Jasmine is from Jersey, right? She's a Jersey girl. it's her girlfriend. okay. All right. That's what it is. Okay. So her girlfriend's from Jersey. So I guess, I guess she's fluid with her sexuality. If she was on The Bachelor.

Kelli (02:01.291)
Her girlfriend is, I don't know if she is, yeah.

Kelli (02:13.139)
Yeah, I think she said that when we met her on the valley. Yeah. Of course, yeah.

Wendy (02:17.312)
Okay. Which is fine, like who cares? But I mean, this storyline that she has going on the valley is just ridiculous. Yeah. More than once. More than once. Right.

Kelli (02:27.359)
Yeah, like put it to bed, man. Put it to bed. He apologized. What more do you want him to do?

And it was one incident. mean, sweet Marie. I just don't think the punishment is fitting the crime, personally.

Wendy (02:40.312)
Yeah.

I don't, no I don't either, I really don't. So then we see she picks up Zach, we find out he had just been on a road trip with his on again, off again boyfriend Benji. He met the parents and they had a serious conversation about the relationship and where it's going but do we know what the result of it was? Like did he tell us?

Kelli (03:06.219)
Well, he said that they're gonna be boyfriends. no, he said that they are not officially boyfriends, but Jasmine said, he's still married. And he's like, he's still married. So.

Wendy (03:09.271)
Right.

Wendy (03:14.606)
Right. Yes. Yes. And well, he said we never, we never launched, we never hard launched on Instagram because we weren't sure where it was going. then Jasmine said, well, he's married. And Zach said, yeah, yeah, he's married. Well, that would be a problem.

Kelli (03:21.097)
Right.

Kelli (03:28.417)
Yeah. And I loved when Zach was like, you you picking me up from the airport proves that, or they said it, us doing this, us picking you up proves that we love you. No, it doesn't. It proves that you wanted more camera time. You needed another scene and you still talked about the damn Halloween story. Here was your opportunity to not, and you still did it.

Wendy (03:42.83)
That's exactly what that proves.

Wendy (03:49.132)
Yes.

Yes.

Wendy (03:56.64)
Yeah, she is just screaming thirsty.

Kelli (04:00.385)
Get her some water.

Wendy (04:03.534)
Yeah, exactly. Next we see Nia and Michelle, meet up with their kids, Isabella and Asher. And they're talking about what happened the night before when all the girls got together and Nia was telling them about, you know, her history and, you know, being homeless. And she wants to know like what happened after she left. And Michelle said, well, the only thing is that Jasmine got really emotional about what happened with her and Danny. I'm like, okay, now it's again.

Kelli (04:33.46)
It's a

Wendy (04:33.622)
Now it's again, right? Michelle starts talking about how Isabella said to her that something like, know you and daddy were married, but if you want to get married again, you can, and then he'll have to come to the wedding if you want to marry Aaron. Yeah. And I was like, Ooh, that's a little, that's.

Kelli (04:37.759)
Hmm

Kelli (04:55.03)
Aaron?

Kelli (05:00.065)
She is a very smart little-

Wendy (05:01.76)
I mean, she's only four, right?

Kelli (05:03.935)
Yeah, but she's probably thinking like they don't get along and here her mom is with this other guy and she seems so happy. So it's like, it's okay, you can be happy, but then you have to include daddy so, you know, we can all be good. Like she's very smart.

Wendy (05:12.982)
Right.

Right.

Yeah, she really is. I mean, I think honestly, she might be the brains of this whole relationship here. Right? The four-year-old's running the show.

Kelli (05:24.993)
Oh, the whole operation. She is the brains of the whole operation. 100%. Yes, yes.

Wendy (05:36.206)
Then we see Jason meets up with Luke and Danny at a place called Heavy Handed where they have burgers, ice cream and beer. Sounds like a great combination. They did. They really did. And they're talking about, well, Jason is talking about how Danny fell asleep on the trip and making a big deal about it that he was so drunk. Danny's like, listen,

Kelli (05:44.819)
those burgers looked good. Yeah.

Wendy (06:05.612)
You know what, I was taking a nap. I was gonna take a nap, you know, whether I was drinking or not. Like I had worked and I was tired. And he's like, well, Janet told me that you were like swigging tequila in the closet with the door closed. And he's like, like everyone was swigging tequila. Like what is the big deal? Right. And he's like, well, Janet thought you were hiding it. And Danny said, well, I wasn't drunk. And Jason said, well, were drunk enough that you couldn't make dinner.

Kelli (06:22.283)
Yeah, I took a shot. Yep, I took a shot.

Kelli (06:33.279)
and he said, Janet felt uncomfortable. Who fucking cares? She's not married to him. Who cares if Janet felt uncomfortable? Get it together, Janet.

Wendy (06:35.442)
Right, right. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. And then Luke, I like that Luke said this. Luke said, listen, I heard Danny say to me that, you know, wake me up in an hour to Nia and Nia's like, I'm gonna let him sleep.

Kelli (06:52.469)
Yes, I was so glad that Luke had his back on this.

Wendy (06:54.89)
Yes, yes.

Listen, she's the one that can make that call. It's her husband, right? She wants to let him sleep, she can let him sleep. Like, what do you care?

Kelli (07:06.689)
Whether he was drunk and she was gonna let him sleep or he was tired and she was gonna let him sleep They have three kids three and under If he wants to sleep and she wants to let him sleep So be it And listen if you got a friend who won't shut the fuck up about something that happened almost a year ago when your husband was drunk and you sense that he might be drunk and said friend is there

Wendy (07:21.846)
Right, exactly. Exactly.

Wendy (07:35.818)
Yeah, let's keep him away. Yeah, exactly.

Kelli (07:36.681)
Let him sleep because God forbid he winks at her or something. We'll be hearing about that for the next year.

Wendy (07:44.278)
Yep. And then Jason brings up that Jasmine still has PTSD from Halloween.

Kelli (07:52.415)
The third scene of the show we're talking about this stupid Halloween story.

Wendy (07:55.348)
Yep. He's like, you don't know about that? And Danny said, yeah, but I apologized to her already. And Jason said, well, she still feels a way about it. What? Are you kidding me?

Jason says to him, I don't feel like you took full responsibility. He apologized. What does he need to do? How is it he needs to take full responsibility?

Kelli (08:13.121)
How does he know?

Wendy (08:23.693)
So.

Kelli (08:24.427)
Maybe he needs to give her his first born. Maybe that will wipe the slate clean.

Wendy (08:26.636)
Right, yeah, yeah. mean, or maybe his fourth now at this point, right? The fourth, yeah, yeah. So Danny's saying like, what are you talking about? Like now he starts questioning his friendship with Jason. Like, why is he getting involved in this?

Kelli (08:31.935)
Maybe give her, yeah, give her the fourth. You're not attached to this one yet.

Kelli (08:43.157)
He should be questioning his friendship with Jason because quite honestly, Jason is only there to do his wife's dirty work. And doesn't he seem like too smart for that?

Wendy (08:48.898)
Yeah.

Wendy (08:53.282)
He really does, like, I mean, we've said this before, he's a puppet to her. He is her, he is her puppet, like, and it's sad, because I liked him without her.

Kelli (08:54.923)
He's not.

For sure.

Kelli (09:03.561)
Me too, me too, but he's just there doing her dirty work. I have no respect for him now.

Wendy (09:11.222)
Yeah. mean, Danny said like, you're coming at me like I have a drinking problem and I don't think that's cool, man. And Jason said, well, I disagree. And Danny was like, well, that's the lawyer in you.

Kelli (09:21.195)
Mm-hmm, yeah. Yeah, I would question that friendship too, Danny.

Wendy (09:23.363)
You know?

And I'm glad Danny said it to his face, you know? That's one of the things I do like about these guys is that they will call it out to them.

Kelli (09:28.159)
Yeah, for sure.

Kelli (09:35.359)
Yeah, I mean that's just a guy thing in general, I think.

Wendy (09:38.604)
Well, it is, but not Jax. Like, Jax wouldn't have done that.

Kelli (09:40.659)
no, of course not. Or Jesse.

Wendy (09:43.182)
So, right. So now we see it's day 17 with Jax is in treatment and he is crying doing his, yeah, that he gets to see his son today and that is the only thing that's important to him and that's all that he cares about and he misses him so much and he's everything to him. Okay, you've been a coke head for 10 years and now all of a sudden 17 days into rehab?

Kelli (09:51.221)
with no tears like Tamara.

Kelli (10:06.921)
Right, right, now.

Wendy (10:13.374)
Now? Okay. Yeah. Then we see Brittany is at her rental house with her mom and her son, is there and she's going to be having a party. I like this, at her rental house. And Janet's mom and her mom are going to be watching their kids at her regular house so that she can, you know, have fun and party. Listen, I don't think she needed to explain all that to us, but okay.

Kelli (10:14.261)
while you're still rage texting, Brittany.

Kelli (10:30.657)
Mm-hmm.

Kelli (10:42.699)
I'll tell you what, a lot of people, I agree with you, I agree with you, but a lot of people on social media are calling her out for the amount of partying she does. I don't agree with it, I don't co-sign that at all, but I have seen it on social media where people are definitely coming at her for the amount of partying.

Wendy (10:45.486)
Mm-hmm.

Wendy (10:57.144)
Yeah.

Wendy (11:04.78)
Listen, she is doing fine and I don't think she needs to explain it to us. That's what I have to say.

Kelli (11:12.083)
And she has a good support system. She's not passing her kid off to just anybody. Her mom's there, she has a nanny, she trusts, you know.

Wendy (11:20.182)
Right, exactly, exactly.

Kelli (11:22.439)
She's on a TV show, she's filming a TV show. And it's based on people who typically like to party. So there's an amount of partying that she has to do.

Wendy (11:32.49)
And you know what? It was an adult situation that Cruz did not need to be at. So it's that simple. Then we find out that I thought that Jax was going to see Cruz at the rehab. I didn't realize that he was going to meet Cruz in the park.

Kelli (11:36.267)
Sure. Now.

Kelli (11:53.409)
I gotta be honest with you, I do not think Jax went to rehab. I don't know where he went, but it wasn't a rehab because he's got his phone, he's going to the gym, and he's going to a park to see his son. That's not rehab. That's not any rehab I know anybody to go to.

Wendy (12:06.124)
Yeah.

No, I mean, nothing in Jersey would be like that. No. I was shocked. I was shocked to hear that they met at the park and that, you know, he wanted to talk to Brittany afterwards and wanted Brittany to talk, I guess, with the therapist too. The therapist comes to the park with him?

Kelli (12:12.089)
No, absolutely not. So I don't know where he went.

Wendy (12:35.65)
I don't know.

Kelli (12:36.169)
Again, is it a therapist? Is it, it Jesse's life coach that just yeses them to death? mean.

Wendy (12:39.384)
lol

Then we find out that I guess he was spying on her with the cameras in the house and like that's just crazy. Come on.

Kelli (12:57.929)
It's, this is, this is very toxic behavior. This is really toxic behavior.

Wendy (13:01.026)
Yes, yes, yes. And then he signed a lease to move in next to Schwartz.

Kelli (13:12.161)
but he wants to start dating her again.

Wendy (13:14.158)
Right. And she's like, hell no. Um, no.

Kelli (13:18.158)
God, don't do it, Brittany. For the love of God.

Wendy (13:19.938)
Yeah. No.

Then we see Dani meets up with Jasmine and her girlfriend at Lawless and he's paying for everything and you know he wants to make sure that everything is okay between them because Jason made it seem like it was a problem.

Kelli (13:43.649)
And by the way, Melissa looks just as bored with this conversation as we do. I think Melissa is over the conversation, quite honestly.

Wendy (13:49.174)
Yeah, she does.

Wendy (13:53.708)
Yeah, I mean, but this gets Melissa all this airtime,

Kelli (13:56.659)
It does, does. She doesn't even seem to want it though. I think she's just doing this for Jasmine, which is nice, which is nice, a nice girlfriend thing to do, but I don't know.

Wendy (14:07.744)
Yeah. So Danny starts out with, you know, last year at Jack's Halloween party, was, you know, the worst night of my life. And as soon as I found out what I had done, I apologized to you. And Jasmine's like, well, it brings up feelings for me because being in a relationship with a woman, like I go through this on a daily basis. Like if this was a, if I was in a relationship with a man, like this would have been a different conversation.

Kelli (14:36.673)
We said it last week, we totally agree with her. She has a valid point and I do think that when she said it, it clicked for Danny and he was like, okay, yeah.

Wendy (14:38.432)
Right. Right.

Wendy (14:47.158)
Yes, yes, he did. He even acknowledged it. Like I didn't, I never looked at it that way. And she says, listen, you've already apologized. You know, I don't need another apology. I just need you to know, you know, you know, how this made me feel. I, know, I still want to be a part of your life. I, know, I just don't, I, you know, I don't want to have to bring this up, but meanwhile, she's bringing it up every freaking scene. Not alone. It's like, are you kidding me?

Kelli (15:12.981)
So much.

Kelli (15:17.675)
Like, it's too much. You're doing too much with the Halloween story.

Wendy (15:22.028)
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, really, it really is too much.

So then we

Kelli (15:29.749)
Well, it seems that she has finally accepted his 25th apology and we can move on.

Wendy (15:34.914)
But no, we can't because when we, at the end of the episode, when we see still to come, it gets brought up again. Yes. Yes, at the end of the episode, when we see, yes, no, you would think, but no, it is not done. It's really exhausting.

Kelli (15:41.255)
it does? I must not have seen that. Wishful thinking.

Kelli (15:53.803)
Are they gonna have a reunion for this? Because if Andy doesn't bring up the ridiculousness of the amount of times we talked about this, I'll be very disappointed.

Wendy (16:03.66)
Yeah, me too.

Kelli (16:04.641)
I wonder if Andy would even do a reunion for this show.

Wendy (16:07.224)
Well, they didn't do one last year.

Kelli (16:08.989)
I know. But I thought we heard, yeah, because no, yeah, because you said there was a lineup. So Andy did it.

Wendy (16:11.718)
wait, no, no, no, they filmed it. They filmed it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yes, he did the reunion. They filmed it already. They filmed it. listen, this better be a topic.

Kelli (16:23.201)
for sure.

Wendy (16:24.366)
Then we see Kristen and Luke are out and Jessie meets up with them. Luke said people are unreasonably upset with Dani not being at dinner. I'm glad that Luke brought this up because again, Luke had Dani's back. I mean, I think it's probably because Kristen has Nia's back, which is, yeah, no, that's fine. That's fine.

Kelli (16:46.879)
I do too, but that's okay. But Jesse didn't seem like he's like, I don't know nothing about anybody and anything. like, he didn't seem like he wanted to like, like he, felt like he could have defended Danny too and been like, yeah, he's fucking tired. Like he, he worked, he drove, you know, kids and, but no, he wasn't, he's just a selfish prick, Jesse. He's not gonna stick up for anybody.

Wendy (17:08.918)
Right. No, he wasn't. is. mean, even the fact that, you know, the beginning of the season, he was like befriending Kristen when he had such a problem with her last season, right? And all of a sudden he's going to be her friend. And he's not. That was just all show. I mean, I think we heard Michelle talk about it, that he had everything planned out. He plans every scene he goes to. This is his job.

Kelli (17:20.257)
Mm-hmm.

Kelli (17:36.543)
You can tell. You can tell. Yeah.

Wendy (17:38.326)
You definitely can tell. You can definitely tell. I mean, it's supposed to be reality. It's not reality for Jesse. It is scripted, and he's the one writing the script.

Kelli (17:47.061)
Yes. Yes.

Wendy (17:53.614)
Kristen brings up that when Jason goes out, he takes off his wedding ring. And then Jesse's like, well, are there rumors of him cheating? And Kristen's like, well, I've not heard any of that, but Jesse doesn't think that this is something that should be brought up. Well, of course he doesn't. mean, because, you know.

Kelli (18:12.289)
He probably never wore his blooding ring.

Wendy (18:14.614)
Yeah, he probably didn't, right? Right, and says, well, the only reason I brought it up is because they're really, you know, being judgmental of Danny and Nia's relationship. And I don't think that that's, I don't think that that's right. And then Luke and his confessional is like, this is really something Kristen should have never brought up, but you know, it's gonna cause unnecessary drama, but that's what Kristen does. And I mean, Luke has been around long enough to know that that's what his...

Kelli (18:34.463)
Here we are.

Wendy (18:41.944)
girlfriend slash fiance does, that's what she does.

Kelli (18:45.429)
Listen, I back her on this one. I mean, I back her on it. If Jana and Jason are gonna be pointing fingers that somebody took a nap, all right, let's bring it up. You don't wear your wedding ring when you go out.

Wendy (18:55.617)
Yeah.

Wendy (19:00.055)
Right.

Kelli (19:01.747)
At least you have to, you at least have to, well you don't have to, but you're at least going to defend yourself.

Wendy (19:08.726)
Right, well she's defending Nia. Wasn't even herself that was she's defending, right? yeah. ask, right, ask him the question, right? At least ask him the question, right.

Kelli (19:12.169)
I'm saying Jason, like he at least has to be like, well, know, well, he doesn't have to, but yeah, ask him the question and, you know, make him be accountable for something.

Wendy (19:23.68)
Right, right. Then we see Zach shows up at Brittany's shark party with his swim trunks have Brittany's face all over it. I thought that was cute.

Kelli (19:34.731)
Do know Terry buys those for Anthony? I think she's gotten him two pair of pair of shorts and pair of pants for her picture.

Wendy (19:37.338)
my god.

Wendy (19:41.168)
my God, that's so funny. And I bet he wears them proudly.

Kelli (19:43.253)
I know. Of course. And then he puts a picture of it in the group chat, in the Griswold's group chat.

Wendy (19:49.59)
good. Good. That's so funny. And then Zach is getting his shark bite makeup put on so he can really get into this theme completely. I mean, he takes the theme.

Kelli (20:05.703)
I love the flashbacks of all of his costumes and he has spray on abs with every costume.

Wendy (20:11.435)
Yes.

Hey, there's nothing wrong with a spray on AB.

Kelli (20:17.317)
I've got an airbrushed hands and never once thought to put abs on myself and I think I might do it next time.

Wendy (20:21.678)
There you go. Maybe I can get an airbrushed hand and they can get rid of my cellulite. Like what will we put there? Like on my thighs, what will we put there? Muscles? I mean, I don't know. We gotta do something. Yeah, yeah, we gotta figure something out. So then we see Jason in his confessional says that he's nervous to see Danny, which I'm glad to hear that, to be quite honest with you. I'm glad to hear that.

Kelli (20:34.037)
Something we'll figure it out. Yeah Yeah

Kelli (20:49.408)
Yeah.

Wendy (20:50.958)
And when he gets there, he pulls Danny aside and says, you know, listen, can we talk? Right? And he apologizes, which I think was the right thing to do. I was very glad to see that.

Kelli (21:02.017)
Mm-hmm.

Kelli (21:07.989)
He said he was losing sleep over their conversation, which I'm like that if I, you know, am worried about something, I have a hard time sleeping. So I, you know, I felt for him, but I'm glad, you know, it was nice that he was accountable.

Wendy (21:10.583)
Yeah.

Wendy (21:20.01)
I thought so too. And we see that Lala is there and Sheena and Brock. This is like the first official episode we see them in. Michelle is telling Lala about what had happened in Santa Barbara with Jessie. And of course Lala feels a certain way about it and she's not afraid to say it, right? And then.

Kelli (21:43.069)
Yeah, people online are not happy they're back.

Wendy (21:47.178)
Yeah, I've heard that too. They don't want

Kelli (21:48.747)
Yeah, I mean it was stupid. Like, Lala, who are you? You're gonna, like, he's on the show. You're not even on the show yet. And you're basically telling him that you don't fuck with him because of how he treated your friend. Which I respect that, but was that really a scene we needed to see? And Sheena had nothing to do with it, but saw the camera on Lala and beat feet right over there. Like, they just want it too bad. They want it too much.

Wendy (22:10.946)
I mean.

Yeah. No, I agree. I agree. was a little much. mean, watching Sheena scurry over there and just stand there and watch what's going on.

Kelli (22:19.273)
Yeah.

Kelli (22:24.352)
Yeah.

Wendy (22:29.358)
Listen, I don't like Jessie and I kind of like that she just read him the riot act and nobody else on the cast was gonna do it. And they weren't gonna do it because they're all attached to somebody, right? Like Lala had nobody there that she was attached to. So I was glad she did it. I was okay with it.

Kelli (22:41.203)
No, that's true. That is true.

Kelli (22:49.697)
Mm-hmm.

Wendy (22:57.326)
And even how she put it, know, like, would if Isabella came home and tells you that, you know, her ex was treating you the way that, you know, you just treated your ex, how would you feel? Like, that's the way to put it. I mean, she had a valid point. Right?

Kelli (23:10.911)
Yeah. Yeah.

Wendy (23:14.178)
so after that happens, then Jesse calls over Jason and lets Jason know that Kristen is going to say something about him. So this I thought was odd that Jason goes up to Zach first. Why, why would you go up to Zach? Like, are you and Zach close? No, you and Zach are not close.

Kelli (23:32.139)
No, and the funny thing is Jason's asking, what's wrong with this group? Your wife started a witch hunt on Danny. That's what this season's about.

Wendy (23:35.777)
Right.

Wendy (23:42.55)
Right. Right.

Kelli (23:45.153)
So your collateral damage now, she's going after Danny, so now people are looking for shit to go after you for. I mean, you're on a reality TV show, that's the formula.

Wendy (23:47.34)
Yeah, exactly.

Wendy (23:57.71)
Yeah, that's it. So Zach obviously says, you know, I don't know. And he walks away and then he goes up to Luke and Kristen and, you know, they tell him that the rumor was going around that you take your ring off when you go to bars. And Jason says, never, never have I done that.

Kelli (24:20.491)
I did like this and to me there are certain ways you know when somebody's telling the truth or lying. Now whether he does or does not wear his ring, personally I don't think Jason's cheating on Janet because I think Janet would fucking kill him. She'd pull a Lorraine Bobbitt on him and I think he's scared to death of her. But when he said, that's it.

Wendy (24:34.422)
I think so too. I totally agree.

Kelli (24:43.285)
That's what you were gonna say? I thought, I couldn't imagine what it was gonna be. Like that reaction to me, I was like, this, ain't doing, he's doing nothing.

Wendy (24:52.054)
Yeah. No, I agree. He definitely is not doing it. I mean, once again, the fact that Kristen says, Jasmine told me this rumor and then they called Jasmine over and Jasmine said, well, yeah, it was like two years ago. Two years ago? Are you kidding me? Yeah. I mean, two years ago. So Jasmine, this is what you're bringing to this. You're bringing a rumor that's two years old and you're raking.

Kelli (25:08.211)
At she admits she said it.

Wendy (25:19.288)
Danny over the coals for something that happened last Halloween that he apologized for 55 times. What? Jasmine, like you need to go Jasmine, seriously, you need to go.

Kelli (25:21.418)
Right.

Kelli (25:26.527)
Right. Yeah. She's got nothing, Jasmine. She's got nothing.

She does because she's trying too hard. Like just be yourself. Like just show us you with Melissa and live in your life and, but you're doing too much.

Wendy (25:50.092)
Yeah, exactly, exactly. And even Jason's like, in his confessional, he's like, I had this big argument with Danny over your feelings, Jasmine, and you're the one throwing me under the bus? All right, Jason, I hope your eyes are open. I hope your eyes are open.

Kelli (26:03.647)
Yep, exactly.

Kelli (26:10.721)
How about Janet questioning Kristen about whether or not she's sorry? No, she's not sorry. Nope. And listen, Janet, by the way, everybody loves Kristen now and can't stand you. So if anybody's getting voted off the island, it's gonna be you.

Wendy (26:15.672)
Yeah.

No, no, she's not.

Wendy (26:27.092)
Yep. Yep. So true. It's so true. mean, and Kristin even says to her, listen, you and I haven't been friends for a while. Like, why would I have your back? Yeah, no. Not happening.

Kelli (26:36.385)
Why would I be sorry? Exactly. You're coming after me and Danny and I'm returning the favor.

Wendy (26:43.788)
I'm sticking up for him, yeah. So then, Britney comes out and gathers everyone around to make an announcement. I thought this was a little strange.

Kelli (26:54.293)
So strange. Like, does anybody really care?

Wendy (26:57.422)
Yeah, that was weird. She lets them know that she let Cruz meet up with Jackson in the park and that he is renting next to Schwartz's house and now that she's gonna be responsible for the $14,000 a month mortgage, guess as well, right? Which, yep, as well as her rental payment, whatever that might be.

Kelli (26:58.933)
Very weird.

Kelli (27:16.405)
That's in arrears.

Wendy (27:25.015)
And Sheena's like, you need to meet with a lawyer. And Brittany's like, yeah, I am next week. And you know, we know that she did, I mean, because she did file for divorce.

Kelli (27:34.998)
Yeah.

Wendy (27:39.06)
Then next we see Jasmine and Brittany are walking into Jax's bar. They go up to the bar, they get shots, and they see the picture of Jax and I don't know, maybe it's one of the few places that they can film.

Kelli (27:48.129)
Why would they go to Jax's bar?

Kelli (27:53.312)
I guess.

Wendy (27:55.116)
I mean, at this point, you know, Brittany wants to give it publicity because she's still getting a piece of it, right? So you might as well do that. she sticks the napkin over his face and then Schwartz comes in and Schwartz is telling Brittany that, know, Jax, Mr. Serene, know, Mr. At Peace is like a work in progress, you know, through text, not that he spoke to him and...

Kelli (28:02.549)
That's true. That's true.

Yeah.

Wendy (28:25.25)
She's like, what are you talking about? Like, then she tells him that she just found out yesterday that he had not paid the mortgage since May. And this is August 15th that she's finding this out. And, you know, both of their names are on the mortgage. She starts crying and Schwartz is just like, man, like poor Schwartz, like you can't give him this kind of heavy information. Like he can't handle this. This is too much for Schwartz.

Kelli (28:50.867)
No, he can't handle this. But I like where she's like, it's like $100,000. And I'm like quickly doing the math in my head. I'm like, no, it's like $56,000.

Wendy (29:00.716)
I mean, it could be with, but with late fees and penalties, it could be.

Kelli (29:05.384)
Yeah, I guess that's true. I just don't think she's a big mathematician.

Wendy (29:10.452)
No, no, she's not. But I'm sure Schwartz was like, because he's actually, believe it or not, he's very smart. Even though doesn't appear to be, he is very smart. Right. And then she starts crying, know, you know, I'm going to lose my dream home, I'm going lose my family. And, you know.

Kelli (29:15.871)
He's smart, yeah.

Right. Not much with the common sense, Schwartzee.

You

Wendy (29:37.004)
Then Jasmine's like, I'm so mad at him, I'm gonna rip his face off the wall, I'm gonna rip his name down. And we're just like, I need to get a drink. Like I can't be a part of this vandalism. Like again, he's like, how did I get here? Like what am I doing in this scene? I don't know, I don't know. I don't know.

Kelli (29:52.289)
What was he doing in the scene?

Kelli (29:59.701)
Yeah. He's a loser, Brittany. Cut your ties, move on, on to the next. Which I think she has actually.

Wendy (30:07.84)
Yeah, I think she, yes. I mean, I don't believe that they are actually divorced yet. I don't know how long it does take in California, but I hope she gets what she deserves. And I hope Jax gets what he deserves, right? But we'll have to wait and see. We'll have to wait and see. I don't know anything else for this, do you? All right, well, I would say.

Kelli (30:33.439)
No. Nope.

Wendy (30:36.972)
Until next time, thank you for watching and listening. You want to do a separate episode? Right? Yeah. Until next time, thank you for watching and listening. Bye.

Kelli (30:39.861)
Are we doing summer house?

okay. All right. All right, bye.

Kelli (30:51.893)
Bye.
