Post by bunniefuu »

[ticking]

- I'm never filming again.
I'm done.

- There is this wedding.

- I now declare you both
husband and wife.

Chris, you may kiss the bride!

[cheers and applause]

- It was beautiful.

[group cheering]

It was grand.

Love was in the air.

- Now I'm getting drunk.
- Slow down.

- I'm... whatever.
It's my wedding night, b*tch.

- [chuckles]
- And then...

- You are the dump
to our island.

[guests booing]
- Calm down, Staten Island!

- Oh, my God.
- We're joking.

- We had a situation.

- That was so [bleep]ed up.

- It was supposed to be funny.

- The worst thing
I've ever seen in my life.

- A wedding situation.

- No, you guys are [...]ed up.

- I'm so [...] mortified.
- A titanic, split in half...

- Can you take camera crew
out of my [...]ing face?

Please,
take them out of my face!

- ...sunk type of situation.

- I need a drink!
- It just exploded...

- Chris, get her a drink!

- Disintegrated.

- I will never film
with her again.

- I think this is it.
- Yeah?

- This is not fun.

- The whole family...

[wolf howls]

[dramatic percussion]

- Ooh.
- Poof...

has now been broken apart.

- Could you guys get out
of my face, please?

Please, turn around and just go.

- And that was
Angelina's wedding...

- You guys aren't invited
to my wedding.

- In a nutshell.

Not every story
has a happy ending,

but we've been through tougher
times in this family,

and I am not gonna
give up on us yet.

I want this thing forever,
this right here.

We didn't come this far
just to come this far.

- ♪ Get crazy, get wild ♪

♪ Let's party, get loud ♪
- Yeah, buddy!

- ♪ If you wanna have fun ♪

- The Situation
is under construction.

- ♪ Then do something ♪

- This might not have
been the best idea.

- We're so classy now.

- On the seventh day,
it'll be lit.

- Get the frig out of here,
you crazy!

- Um, hello?

- ♪ If you wanna have fun,
then do something crazy ♪

♪ I’ll hold your hand ♪

♪ And get you through

- I said, "If anybody comes
to my [bleep] wedding

with a toaster oven,
l’ll k*ll them."

- Who gave us this?

- This person, I’m gonna bring
the toaster oven right back

to their wedding.

- What if they’re married
already?

- I didn’t think that of that.

So it’s been two days
since the wedding.

It was a beautiful wedding.

The first look,

Chris crying when I was
walking down the aisle.


Those are, like, the two
things I will cherish forever.

My mother says,

"It was a fairy tale wedding
with a price to pay,"

and I agree.

I do agree.

When you have three girls
that I call my friends

say this wedding speech
and begin it right off the bat


with, like, "Well, you had
three engagements,

and you finally got
one that stuck"...

like, you definitely
just ruined the night for me.

- We’re trying to just, like,
you know, laugh with it,

whatever, go with it, and then,
like, I see my family,

and I see, like, my mom
and my grandmother out there.

More embarrassed than anything.
l was just like,

"I can’t believe
this is going on right now."

- I was more hurt at that
point.

Like, I’m still hurt; I’m
actually really hurt right now.

And you know what?

You can say
you were drunk all you want,

but you’re still an adult
at the end of the day.

- No, of course.

Who would ever think
it’s acceptable

at a wedding
to do a speech like that?

I just don’t get it.

- Even if it’s, like,
a joke between us,

l don’t think
that it should have been said


in front of people
that don’t know those jokes,


honestly.

Thought it was
a little [bleep]ed up.

- And not to mention,
Jenny didn’t give us a gift.

- Nothing, right?
-Nope.

Maybe that was Jenny’s gift,
was the wedding speech,

but that is some gift,
let me tell you.

- Why does Vinny’s card
have him naked on it?

- Ew.

- ♪ Love some candy paint,
nice frame ♪

♪ Real low, I ain’t never
hit the brakes ♪

♪ Think they for show ♪

♪ ’Cause I could never
move that slow, oh ♪


♪ Pedal to the floor... ♪

[phone line trilling]

-Yo, chooch.
- What’s good, my guy?

-Yo, you hear
that leaked audio?

- For real. I can’t believe it.

- It’s been a few days since
the wedding at this point,

and I’m still in shock of
how sideways this wedding went,

but now the drama has escalated
since the actual wedding

because this audio leaked of
the girls giving this speech.

- You’re the fly to our [bleep].

You are the trash to our bags.

[overlapping voices]

- ...to our Island.

- So the whole world thinks
that the girls

just ruined Angelina’s
wedding on purpose,


and it makes this issue grow
into so much more

than it originally started as.

- I just wanted to make my $250
from TMZ and move on.

- [laughing]

-Hi!
- Come on in, guys.

-Hi. - Greyson!

- This has been, like,
the most stressful.

- I’ve never experienced what
we’re experiencing right now

on social media.

As bad as the wedding was,

today it’s so much worse,

because there is now
leaked audio

and social media is the devil.

They’re attacking my parenting

or the type
of karma I deserve.


Like, literally I should die
and get kicked on and spit on,


and "I hope
your daughter experiences


what you put
Angelina through."


Yeah, it’s really,
really painful.

Thousands, thousands
of comments and messages

about being a bully.

- I’m getting threats to CJ.

People are telling me my son
deserves to be bullied.

If they ever saw me out,

they would punch me
in the face.

People are literally coming
after me as a mother

and you as a mother.

Like, how could you do that?

l just want to go into
a little fricking hole and cry.

- Hey.
- Hey!

- That right there is a Roman
chair for the lower back.

- Gave my girl a Roman chair
last night,

you know what I’m saying?

-Yo, have you seen
what’s going down on socials?

And I’m not talking
about Ronnie.

-This audio got leaked,
and a lot of the fans are...

- They’re feeding into it.

- They’re feeding it,
and Angelina

is liking the posts
that are against the girls.

- Which is making it even
worse.

- That’s what the girls
are mad at.

-On social media,
it happens all the time.

- Those girls, they should
never do stand-up comedy.

-Agreed.
- But they did not try

to ruin her wedding...
-No.

- Or do anything mean.
-I agree.

Life is 10 percent what happens
to you and 90 percent

how you react to the situation.
-That’s right.

I didn’t come this far
just to come this far.

- Exactly. Well, are we really
doing a quote-off right now?

Because if so,

the comeback is always greater
than the setback.

- A bitter root will only
produce a bitter fruit.

- You can’t be bitter and
expect life to be sweet.

- I think I have one.
Do I have one?

- Tough times don’t last,
but tough people do.

- All right. I’m done.
-All right.

- I’ve been texting her.

I’ve been calling her.
She’s not picking up.

-That night when I was
literally taking my dress off,

I got a text message
from the girls,

and they were like,
"We’re so sorry.

We didn’t mean it.
It came off wrong,"

and then Deena said,
"I’m mortified,"

blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

But then I scroll up,
and I see a newer text message.

It was that group chat.
Deena started it.

She was like, "I will never
film with her again,"

and then Mike writes,
"Who are you talking about?"

And then Deena writes,
"Angelina, Mike."

And then JWoww then said,
"Same," and then...

or Snooki wrote, "Same,"
and then JWoww wrote,

"I’m glad
we’re all on the same page."

- That just goes to show

that their original
apology was [bleep],

and they didn’t [bleep]ing
mean it.

- That was just it for me.
-It sucks because

Angelina knows we would
never do this on purpose,

and she’s posting like,
"I want to redo my wedding,"

and, like... which is, like,
just fueling all these people.

- The audio got leaked.

- I want to a redo.
That’s for sure.

And I’m gonna do it.

I don’t have any pictures
having fun at the wedding


because my bridesmaids.

- And it’s like,
I just can’t handle this.

She really did take this
as an opportunity to...

- Destroy us.

- Well, I don’t know, man.

l’m thinking that
it was Angelina’s wedding.

She has every right
to feel the way that she does.

l mean...
- Hundred percent.

- That’s her point of view.

- She has every right
to be upset.

-Those are
her feelings to have.

- We can’t necessarily take
that away from her.

-I think the girls are so...
They feel so strongly about it.

They can say
that they’re over it,

but holding a grudge
is like drinking poison

and expecting
the other person to die.

-Very true.
- It’s gonna eat away at them.

The only way out of it
is to talk to her.

-Very true.
- I think time will eventually

heal this situation,
but a long time.

There’s three sides
to every story, right?

- Oh, nice.

- My side, your side
and the truth.

- Yes, exactly.

- I have to be honest.

Like, if we continue here,
l don’t...

- I don’t ever want to
see her again.

- I don’t think I could ever
be in the same room as her.

- Mm.

- I’m sorry this always
happens,

especially
on our wedding night.

-If it was done to them,
they would have never liked it,

and I just wanted
the same respect.

- There’s got to be a way
to move forward.

- I don’t know because you just
have,

like, a complete divide
between the two sides.

- You got me.

- I love you.
- I love you.

- What did they call you,
a dirty dancer?

Let me tell you something,
Ronnie.

They’re all [bleep]
dirty dancers. All right?

- All right. All right.
Give me the phone.

Give me the phone.
-Okay.

-Ronnie has got to go.
Ronnie has got to go, okay?

- Like, this is, like,
my perfect gym.

-Yeah.
Oh, it’s great for me and Zack.

-Zack? Zack is back?
- He’s back. Calm down.

I don’t know what I’m doing.

-I will. - All right.

I don’t want to be the Grinch,

but have you spoken
to Angelinas or anybody?

- Why would that be
a Grinch move?

- It was a bit wild
a couple weeks ago,

and I just wanted to see
if you had any contact.

- No, no.

The last I saw her
was the wedding.

Oh. Ooh, [bleep].

Hi, I’m with my grandmother.
What are you doing?

-Hey, not much.
Just hanging out.


How have you been doing
since your wedding and stuff?


[Indistinct]

- I mean, it’s been a lot,
you know?

I’m just, like, really upset
and, you know, angry.

I have so many emotions.
-Yeah.

lt’s literally been
weeks since the wedding,


and none of the girls

want to apologize
and just move on.

-I know you’re mad,
but the speech wasn’t stuff


that they
haven’t said before, you know?


- It’s basically like they were
making fun of me and abusing me

like I’m beneath them
on my wedding day.

Like...

-I understand
that Chris was hurt.


- And his family and his mom.
lt was stupid.

They will never admit
their [bleep]ing wrongs,

none of these girls.

- It was supposed to be

everything that she talked
about herself in a funny way,

like trash bags
and Staten Island,

the dirty little hamster.

-Listen, I’m gonna say
that you kind of overreacted


because
you were laughing at first.


- You’re the fly
to our [bleep].

- [laughing] I love that.

That’s just me being in shock
and then literally...

- I understand; it just looks
bad because you went from,

"That’s funny,"
to laughing to being mad.


- But what does it matter
what it looked like?

lt was my feelings,
and my husband said...

I said, "Are you okay?"
And he said, "No."

And that’s when I snapped.

Thanks for the advice, bro,
but, like,

you’re not the person
to give me advice about drama.


That’s for sure.

- What was your take on it?
-On what?

- That night.

- If I was honest,

l thought there was a bit
of reaching going on a lot

with you guys becoming
bridesmaids.

l think y’all should
have just been guests.

- Listen, I was hurt

because I wanted them
to be my bridesmaids.

- And I know that you like
them,

and I know that you want them
to accept you.

Like, everyone can see it,
but in actuality,

you almost fought Jenny

[bleep] 6 weeks
before your wedding.


- Don’t point that [bleep]ing
finger in my face!

- Okay... whoa!

Calm down!
[all shouting and cursing]

-[bleep] - Calm down.

- I think that you guys
weren’t totally

1,000 percent comfortable in
that role of being bridesmaids.

-Yeah!
- Yeah, 100 percent.

So, like, are we gonna do,
like, this huge, sincere...

-Yeah.
- Like, beautiful speech?

That’s not us to her,
and that’s not her to us,

so that might not
have been the right way.

- Well, listen.

She sat at my dress fitting

saying really inappropriate
things about my husband.

-I love it. - Oh, my gosh.

-Stunning. - Oh, my gosh.

lt’s so crazy, like,
you planning a wedding

around the whole
Mike thing too, right?

-In a dress?
- In a wedding dress, dude?

- Seriously.

- How can you act that way
to other people

and then think
when you’re getting married,

people aren’t gonna say
inappropriate things sometimes?

-Yeah.
- Are they gonna let it go,

or are they not
gonna let it go?

-Who cares? At this point,

it’s just destroying
the family

we’ve all built for 10 years.

lt’s gonna come down
to a [bleep]ing speech.


- Remember, I didn’t do this.
They did.

- She saw us crying.
She didn’t care.

I just don’t think, like,
it can be fixed

because it gets to a point
where you’re just like,

"All right. I got to kind of
just move on with life."

- We’ve been through tougher
times in this family,

and I am not going
to give up on us.

My blood type is "be positive."

- Did Grandma see this coming
since she’s, like, psychic?


-I don’t know.
Grandma, did you see it coming?

- I saw it coming. Okay?
-Did you?

-At the wedding...
What’s her name? J-Lo?

Whatever
you [bleep]ing call her.

She says, "I lost a tooth."

- I had a nightmare.
-About what?

- I lost my teeth in my dream.

[creepy music]

- And then two hours
later, it did.

And then they called...
What did they call you?

-A dancer.
- A dirty dancer.

Let me tell you something, Ron.

They’re all [bleep]
dirty dancers, all right?

- [laughing]

[laughing] Very true.
-If I want to,

I can be the meanest witch
on two [bleep] feet.

- All right. Give me the phone.
Give me the phone.

-Okay.
- Ronnie has got to go.

Ronnie has got to go, okay?

what do you think of, like,

- That's a good idea.
- I haven't seen that yet.

I started trying
to match clothes with CJ,

and it's very hard
for boy moms to match

with their little boys,

so I thought, "You know what?

I'm gonna create my own
mommy-and-me and daddy-and-me

clothing line with boys."

We still have a while
to go to get there,

but I think
it's gonna be amazing.

- Yeah, he's like...
- He wants to play.

- Did you list the house yet?

- The house is officially up

- Okay, perfect.

A lot of the choices I've made
over the last couple years

haven't been the best.

There have been some bumps
in the road,

but started to be a better
person for myself and Ariana.

- You will find the best Ron,

and you'll
be proud of yourself, you know?

- I'm really excited
to start fresh.

I'm finally moving to LA.

Yeah. Hell, yeah.

Cali, here I come.

I feel like I always came
into the house, and I'm like,

"Oh, I'm in a good place,
and I'm happy,"

and it was like
I was putting on this front,

but I feel like this time,

I'm actually working at
becoming the happiest I can be.

Like, this is, like,
my perfect gym.

- Yeah. No, it's great
for me and Zack.

- Zack, really?
- Yeah.

- Zack is working out here?
- Yeah.

- Zack is back?
- He's back. Calm down.

Zack and I decided
to get back together.

We started speaking again

around the time
of Angelina's wedding disaster.

I had no intention of ruining
this girl's wedding,

and she is going full tilt

that we maliciously destroyed
her wedding.

- But you know you didn't,
and that wasn't the intent.

- When I needed someone,

Zack was there,
and I really appreciated that.

- You guys want pizza?
- Yeah.

- The kids adore him,
and he makes me happy,

so I want to be happy
and just move on.

- I don't know how you do it.

I mean, to find a young guy
that's on the same page,

I think it's really good,
you know?

- No, and I say
that all the time.

"If I was you,
I wouldn't be here."

- Yeah, yeah.
- I would just be like you.

- Yeah, but at the same time,

he has
a good girl to give it up for.

- Yeah.
- You're successful.

You're hot.
You know what I mean?

Like... - I'm a mom.

I don't feel hot anymore.

- Listen, if I had my JWoww,

I would probably start
to change my tune up

a little bit,

but I definitely have not found
my JWoww, that's for sure.

- I appreciate that.
I'll take that.

I think that's, like,
the first compliment...

- Compliment?
It was hard for me to do.

- In 10 years.
- I've actually got to leave

because I just
gave a compliment, yeah.

- I'm glad that I have
that on, like...

- I feel icky now, like,
that I just gave a compliment.

- Oh, my God.
We have that on camera, right,

for when you,
like, throw me under the bus?

- That was actually...

I can't believe
I gave a compliment.

- Same.
- I have to go take a shower

now.

[dreamy music]

- Fill out the paperwork,
front and back.

You guys can grab a seat
at this desk over here,

and you can help yourself
to the cafe, okay?

- Oh, thank you.
- They'll call you back

in a few minutes, all right?
both: Thank you.

- You're welcome.

- They asked me
what my other name is,

so I put "The Situation."

- I don't think
that's necessary here.

- Me and the wife are still
trying to grow the family.

- Does yours need to be fixed?

- I would definitely
look at mine.

- Of course.

- I need to be double
and triple checked.

- You guys ready?
- Yeah.

- Yes, we are ready.

We've definitely faced
tons of obstacles, you know?

But I'm willing to do whatever
it takes to get good results.

- So, Lauren, Michael,

I know that I had gotten
the message

that you guys are
trying to get pregnant,

and I think you've had
a pregnancy recently, right?

- Yes.
- So what happened with that?

- So we got pregnant September
12th, and then I found out...

- Pretty quickly.
- Yeah.

- The day I came home.
- Yeah.

Right when he came home,
and then

I had a miscarriage
October 26th.

- Okay, that's sad.
- Yeah.

- Yes.

- It's very, very awesome
that you opened up about it.

- Yeah, thank you.
We're just gonna try again.

- That was the first time
you got pregnant, right?

- First time ever, yeah.
- Nothing before that.

It's a bad luck thing.

Whenever you make an embryo,
the egg can make a mistake

in the division
of the chromosomes.

That's kind of how you get
a lot of miscarriages.

- Okay. All right.

- The most common miscarriage
problem is due to that.

- Okay.

- Well, I actually
have a question.

If she's ovulating this week,
should we have sex every day,

which is fantastic,
or should I do the method

of every other day
to sort of, I guess...

- Replenish.
- Give... replenish

the situation?

- It's actually been shown

that every day
is better than every other day.

- Really?
- Yeah.

- Wow.
- It really is.

The problem is, a lot of people
can't keep it up for that long.

- Okay.
- Okay.

- Well, I had the plan of
before I went to the gym

to do it in the morning
as soon as I wake up.

Is that good, or after the gym?

After the gym or before the gym?

- I think that's okay.
Either way is fine.

- Oh, either way is fine.
- Either way is fine.

Either way is fine.
- All right. Cool.

- Take a shower first.
- Yes, of course.

- Okay, good.

- It seems like we're
in attack mode right now.

- Yeah.
- Well, yeah. Well, good.

It's a lot better to have
the issue and then address it.

- Yeah, I agree.

- I desperately want
to be a father.

That's, like, a bucket list
of a man.

You know,
you want to have a family.

You want to be the best father
you can be,

and I feel,
between prison behind me

and being four years clean
and sober

and being my best self,

I feel like I am ready
to tackle parenthood.

Under doctor's orders, honey,

it seems that we're going
to be busy

with sexy time every single day.

- I’m a little anxious.
-Yeah.

-I just want to get
everyone’s point of view,

and I’m trying to see
if I can get through to them.

The wedding drama has continued
to escalate on a monthly basis.

- I had to be strong
for my husband.

- She’s mean to us.

Like, who wants to be
around someone like that?


- It’s been about 3 months,
and it’s time to heal.

-Hey.
- Hello. Come on in.

- I’m inviting the squad over...
Vinny, Deena and Jenny

so we can hash this out
and have a sit-down.

Bro, I think that
we got a situation, obviously.

-Those girls are angry,
and there’s no turning them.

- No.

- I don’t know where
we go from here.

-But I definitely think
that we got to do something.

- Angelina thinks they
intentionally

ruined her wedding
with some speech.

We got Nicole, who’s not here.
We got these girls who say,

"I won’t be in the same room
as this person."

Everybody is, like, split up.

- Everyone is so absolute
on the sides.

- I don’t like the whole
split-up thing.

lt changes, like,
the whole dynamic of everybody.

-We are really caught
in a situation right now


because we don’t want to say
the wrong thing

to Jenny and Deena
and upset them,

but at the same time
we want to move forward

and try to put this behind us.

I think the first thing
that we should do

is see where their head is at
to sort of,

like, spearhead
this mediation, I guess.

- You’re the perfect person.
You’re positive.

- If anyone can try to
understand,

it’s, like,
a neutral person like you.

- I’m gonna do it, I think.

- The Mediation,
that’s a new one.

-Yeah.
- We got the Designation.

Now he’s the Mediation.

- Yeah.

-Hey, can you
put this on a shirt?

- It’s going to be impossible
to try to mediate this thing,

but then again,

I am the Mediation,

formerly known
as the Situation.

If I walked in the door
and see myself,

l’d probably grab
my girl real quick.

Also known as the designation.

The designation in the house.

-I owe you my life.
- And the Inspiration.

When you’re going through
crisis mode, you’re like,

"What would Sitch do?"

-No, no, no.
What would Mike do?

- And then the Incarceration.

Turn up. We free.

Which, I’m currently
on Probation.

- Welcome. -Hi.

- You look so cute.

- Mike invited Deena, myself
and Vinny over today,

and he referenced, like,
the state of the union meeting.

- What’s up, sis?

- I don’t even know what
the [bleep] that means,

but I’m assuming
it’s important.

All right, guys.
I called everyone over

for pretty much the state
of the union

and how we move forward
from here.

- [chuckles stiffly]

[tense music]

Where do we go from here?

That’s the thing.
We are what’s everything.

You don’t give up everything
for one thing.

-I’m gonna continue
hating Angelina because

I just like to be consistent.

- Oh, my God. Thank you.
Thank you for the help.

- I’m very consistent.
-Well, there will be

no reconciliation
between Deena and Angelina.

- Okay.
- Okay.

- That’s just where
l am right now.

- Okay, that’s where
you are right now.

- For me, moving forward,
it’s without her.

- Why are we having someone
in our little circle

that doesn’t give a [bleep]
about us?

- Wow. Um...

The mediation
is a work in progress.

We may need to regroup.

Listen, that’s good.

That’s what’s
so great about us.

You know, none
of us are really scared

to say how we really feel,

and that’s a good thing.

I need some give and take,

and the girls right now

and straight, rock solid
not moving from their end.

I have an example for you guys.

So I may need to have
a totally different strategy.

You don’t change the goal.
You change the plan.

l actually have
some commissary.

This right here is a symbol
for our family.

Wet wipes in prison
are like gold.

Now you would possibly
exchange about three

or four cheese puffs
for these wet wipes.

You give four cheese puffs,

and you get the wet wipe
or your family.

Does anybody understand
what I’m explaining here?

- I’m actually so lost
right now.

- People, like, go to,
like, law school

and [bleep] to become
mediators.

-Angelina is
the cheese doodle.

- We can get rid of her?

-I don’t think
that’s what’s happening.

- Oh, then I’m lost.
-Yeah.

- I think maybe Mike bit off

a little bit more
than he can chew.

- We do not want to be
around Angelina,

so if she is there,
we will not be there.

- So where do we go from here?

- If she’s not around,
l will be there.

- Simple.

As much as I love Mike

for trying to mediate
the situation,

l’ve never been more sure
about a decision in my life.

- Well, thank you guys
for coming

to the state of the union.

-I know exactly
where we go from here.

- Yeah, I guess we have it
all figured out now.

- Wait, what the [bleep]
is this? [mumbling]

I’m sorry. I’m sorry.

- A whole post saying
how we’re family,

and it’s all
about moving forward.

-"As for my girls"?
- I’m just so over it.

Like, let it go away.

-Hashtag family,
hashtag friendship,

hashtag families are forever.

There’s nothing valid
in that post.

lt actually just
pissed me off more.

- With who?

- I've accepted the challenge
to go to Angelina's.

- You're kidding.
- I'm serious.

My new name is the Mediation.

I have to take this step
to try to fix things.

If I don't do it, I don't think
anyone is going to,

and I feel that I'm the only...
I'm the man for the job.

- Well, good luck with that.

- The state of the union
with the girls didn't work,

but the name of the game
with that is,

if you fail, you have to try,
try again.

Hey, what's up?
- Hey. You look nice.

- How are you? I like it.

I like the furniture.
Nothing but positive vibes.

- Look at our thing up there,
though; how cool is that?

- Oh, yes.

It's all sparkles and stuff.
- Yeah, it is.

All right, well, listen, my
main goal to come over was to,

"A," see how you guys are doing

and introduce you
to my new name,

which is the Mediation.

That's my new nickname.
- Did you anoint yourself that?

- Kind of, yeah.
- I had a feeling.

- I want to see where
you guys' heads are at.

I really think that we need to
just finally have a sit-down.

We've got to do this.
- I don't know.

How am I going to have
a sit-down

with girls that don't
want anything to do with me?

- Take the high road.
- I'm just so sick and tired

of taking the high road
with these people, with them.

It's draining.
They don't like me.

They've made it
very blatantly clear

they don't want to be around me.

I don't even know how start it.
It's a lot. It's a lot.

- There's only one alternative,
okay,

and it's to move forward.

If we don't, then it's never
gonna get any better.

Send them a text.
Extend that olive branch.

It goes a really long way
when you do that.

It really does. - I mean,

if you're the Mediator,
if [bleep] gets out of hand,

please mediate
that [bleep] though.

- Mediation.
- Please be the Mediator

because
I can't handle much more.

I'm gonna literally
write this up,

and we'll go from there.
- All right. That's good.

- And we'll see what happens,
but we'll see.

That's it. - Remember this:

We didn't come this far
just to come this far, guys.

- Okay.
- All right?

And I'm sure it's good.
If it comes from the heart,

I'm sure it's good.

I came in ready for battle,

but Angelina is just saying
all the right things right now.

Kudos to the Mediation.

both: All right.
- Thanks for coming over.

- Congratulations on

- Thank you.
- Text me later.

We got some breads.
We got some cheesers.

Bro, what up, man?

-What up?
- What’s going on?

-No, man,
the food just got here.

-Oh, I see the pizza
is already on the table.

- Yes. One sec.

Carpaccios, some
grilled octopus,

bronzinos.

Oh, my goodness. It happened.

Real mean cheat on their diet,
not their women.

And there’s more.

This is the grilled octopus
right here, sir.

- Ooh. Are you going to let me
eat some

before you keep bringing more,
or?

- Wait until I bring out,
because there’s more.

Spaghetti alle Vongole.
-Oh.

- But wait, there’s more.
-Bro, hurry up.

l’m [bleep] trying to eat.

- Double-cut pork chop.
There’s more.

Bread and some cheese.

Would you like to say something
before we sit down

and break bread?
-Sure.

- Cool.

-Thank you, God,
for this amazing cheat day.

- Yes.

- Thank you for blessing us
with the carbs

that we deserve...
-Exactly.

- After taking a lot of time
not eating carbs.

- It’s been about five or six.
-Yeah.

It’s like climbing a mountain,
and now we’re at the top

of the mountain.
We get to enjoy the view.

-The best view comes

- You know, there’s a lot

- And we’re trying to keep
the family together.

- Mm-hmm.

- And I’m just glad that
we were able to come here

a nice, warm cheat-day meal.

-I might go into
the old truffle pizzas here.

- Okay.
- Hoo!

Why don’t we just invite
all the girls over

for a big pizza party,
and that’ll solve everything?

I mean, we need to get everyone
in the same room.

- For sure. -Yeah.

-We need to call
in the reinforcements.

-It’s really wild in
these streets right now.

We definitely
need reinforcements.

We’re definitely
in a delicate situation,


and we definitely need help.

It’s time to pull out
some RSVP magic.

- Yo, what’s up, brother?
-What’s up, brother?

- All right, well, we had to
get everyone together

because we need your help.

Everything that’s going on

with the girls
and everybody fighting,

we don’t want this family
to split up,

so we’re trying to maybe
plan something

where you guys
can come to this coast.

-Kind of like an intervention?

-Ron, not

- Ronald is mixing up
intervention...
