[bunniefuu]

- ♪ MTV ♪

- Cheers to a drama-free, family fun trip.

- Cheers.

- Why are you so f*cking scared of Jenni, though?

- I am not. - Yes, you are.

- I am not. - You are, you are.

We are always at odds with each other, and it sucks.

Should I talk to Jenni about everything?

- Oh, God.

- Should I talk to her?

Do you think I should talk to her or not?

- You should. - Yeah.

- For sure.

- We are going to w*r, b*tches.

- Major May reporting for duty.

- I think the roommates love Justin,

and there's no better feeling than right now.

- Everyone's in Orlando.

I was thinking about going down there.

[upbeat music]

- Yeah, buddy!

- Party's here!

- The Situation is under construction.

- We're so classy now.

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

I'm actually calling to make a reservation.

Last night was great at the strip club.

Nicole is here now.

Why not go back to the strip club?

I've got another call coming in.

Just hang on one moment for me, please.

both: , , , strip club.

[laughter]

- Oh, man!

Did we just become best friends?

- Yes!

[cell phone chimes] - Vinny just texted us.

- "Meet us at the red sandal downstairs in five minutes."

- To the flip-flop.

- The big flip-flop or the little one?

- Big flip-flop.

- You just never know what they have planned,

and I feel like I need to have a buzz for this.

- Good for you.

- I think they're gonna like the plan.

- There's food. There's alcohol.

There's boobs. There's sh*t for everybody.

- Let's go to the sandal.

- Oh, do you know what we're doing?

- No. - Guys, we're over here.

- What's the plan, Vinny?

- We think, because a couple of y'all weren't there

last night...

- Y'all? - Y'all?

- That tonight we should go back to the strip club.

- [shouts] - Oh, my God, I'm so excited.

- We're going to the strip club.

- We're going to the strip club.

I get to go to the strip club after all.

- Let's roll out. - Let's do it, guys.

- Whoo!

- Is that Jenni is here tonight.

- I'm in heaven.

- I'm still hurt about what she said to me at Nicole's

house on girls' day.

- We are not friends.

Nobody wants you here.

- I don't know how to--how to deal with somebody like that.

- Ange, I could tell, is not being her,

like, outgoing, bubbly self.

So I'm like, what's going on over there?

- But I am gonna tell her, don't--don't ever

talk to me like that again. - Good, good.

Good, good.

- Come on, Ange. - Cheers.

- Let's go take a shot.

- Want to sit here? - Sure.

- What's going on? - Nothing. I'm good.

The only thing is, is that, um, I have to have

a conversation with Jenni.

- Right now?

- Whoo!

- Oh, man, I don't know about this.

We're now day three in this.

Like, let's just move on from it.

Maybe you shouldn't.

She seems, like, in great spirits.

- I'm gonna have to.

- But at the end of the day,

maybe you guys aren't best friends.

Right?

Maybe you're not meant to be friends, and that's OK.

But you're adults, and you can coexist

and be in an environment where it's not weird.

- What, do they got drama?

- I can't tell.

Do you know why she went over?

Justin and I are trying to figure out

what Ange and Sam are saying.

- I'm seeing a lot of head movement.

- Yeah, they look, like... [trills tongue]

Dramatic.

The hand movements, the mouth movements.

We're like, they're talking sh*t.

It's definitely about me.

- Don't even tell her anything, like, when she's like--

- I ain't telling her sh*t.

- Yeah, please, because they're gonna get hear it.

- I'm not getting involved.

I don't want to be a part of this.

When people start talking behind somebody's back,

that's when bad things start happening.

- Baby girl! - Hi, babe.

- Did you have that conversation last night?

- About what?

- About how she needed to have the conversation with Jenni.

- Ange.

You told the stripper?

Do you know what? I'm gonna leave you two.

I'm gonna go to my man.

- Oh, my God, I forgot I asked you about that sh*t.

Do you think I should talk to her or not?

- Yeah. - Oops.

[laughs]

- Is she still going on about me?

- All right, I'm out of here.

- That's a one-sided beef, Sam.

- I'm not a part of it.

- Ooh, nice butt.

- Aren't they good today?

It looks like there's a lot of people having

some serious conversations.

And I'm like, we're in a fricking strip club.

- Deena, you're gonna spill it.

- I'm not gonna spill it, Chris.

Relax.

All I know is I'm just trying to have a good fricking time.

[cheering]

There we go.

Love it.

- Watching the girls at the strip club

might be more entertaining than the strippers.

- You are so sexy.

- Yes, b*tch. - We love your coolie.

- The girls are just beautiful and nice,

doing all these, like, tricks and flips on the pole.

- Oh!

- I mean, so athletic and amazing.

I'm having a great time.

Yes, queen.

Yes, queen! Yes, queen.

Yes, queen.

Ooh! You're like a washing machine.

Aah!

- I'll be honest, I don't know what's more exciting,

going to see the strippers again or--

or, um, ordering something different off the menu.

I'm gonna do the chicken marsala,

some French onion soup, crab Louie,

wedge salad, the salami plate,

and then a shrimp scampi pasta.

- Beautiful. - I mean, the second time--

the second time, I ordered a lot of stuff.

I like to try to explore different things on the menu.

So strip club and a strip steak?

Yes, please.

[upbeat music]

- Xena!

Hi, honey.

How are you?

- Deena is living her best life tonight.

She's best friends with all the strippers now.

- Deena?

- Yeah?

Or I can give you my number, if you want.

- I want to make a stripper friend.

I had a couple strippers in my wedding.

Like, there's nothing wrong with a good stripper.

I love you. - You're gorgeous.

You're freaking gorgeous. - So are you.

I'm in love.

- Thank you, baby.

- There's a girl dancing on me.

I'm feeling good, feeling confident.

I look over.

My wife is pissed.

- Hi.

Yeah, we're besties.

- Yeah, that's my wife, Nicole.

- Yeah.

- Yes.

Am I OK to touch you like this?

- I'm kind of jealous.

- Aah!

- I'm not cheating on you. - Well...

- I'm not cheating on you.

- Thank you.

I'm not cheating on you.

- Well...

- I will never cheat on you, I promise.

- Jenni, you're supposed to be my girl tonight.

What the f*ck?

- You like my b*tch?

- Your b*tch?

- Aah!

- Nicole, we got to get out of the van.

- Thank you, everyone.

Oh, my God, dude, is this Xena?

Xena!

This is Xena.

Xena, you're amazing.

You're so beautiful.

- You gave the stripper your phone number?

That's, like, rule number one.

- I don't know how I even gave her my phone number.

I could give you my number, if you want.

Deena? Oh, I'm Xena."

it's definitely Vinny.

[phone chiming] - Oh, my God, I can't.

f*ck my life.

Who else to talk to about how I should handle this

but a stripper himself?

Hi.

- Hey, D. You OK?

- I need advice. - From me?

- So this morning... - Uh-huh.

- I wake up to a bunch of texts.

I gave the stripper my number.

- Girl, you can't give the stripper your number.

You got to give her the Instagram.

- Oh, my God.

- Giving a stripper your number is a rookie move.

- But she was so nice.

- But you just-- it's breaking the rules.

Instagram, it goes down in the DMs,

and that's all that matters.

- She sent me a picture of us.

- It's serious. - [groans]

- I need reinforcements.

[phone rings]

- Yo.

- I got something really important happening

right now in my room. Can you come over here?

- You OK?

- No, come.

- Oh, I'm coming.

[knocking] - Hey.

- What's wrong?

- So I gave Xena, the girl, the stripper, my number.

- [laughs]

Cardinal rule number one, you never exchange

phone numbers with strippers.

Instagram only.

She was nice on the pole, though.

She was really talented. - Right?

- Yeah.

- She was so sweet.

- So nice, and she came on her day off to see you.

Is she making small talk?

- Like, she wants to be real friends.

- Sucker.

Deena got a sucker. - Oh, my God.

I don't know how this works.

I don't give my number out to people.

- You can change your number.

You guys can move. - Sell the house.

- Change your kids' school.

- Change the carrier of your cell service.

Fake your death.

Get a passport.

Leave the country.

I can get you a passport. I got a guy.

- Change your language, identity, dye your hair.

- Cut your hair.

[laughter]

- You guys are so crazy.

She was nice.

- But don't they always start as nice?

- They always do.

Yeah, strippers are toxic.

I am one.

- This is your fault. You had to go to the same place twice.

- Such a rookie move.

- Bye, guys.

- Unless you want us to do a Deena doll.

- All right, good talk.

Good talk, guys.

Good talk.

- Oh, my God, I feel like a tank hit me.

- [laughs] - Good morning, honey.

- Good morning.

[phone chimes]

- Oh, my goodness.

- What?

- Ron just texted me, said he is on his way.

- What?

[dramatic music]

- [sighs]

- This is a sensitive situation.

He hasn't talked with a number of members

of the squad in years.

The Ron situation is just very delicate.

Nobody wanted anything to do with him after he

got into some trouble.

So I really don't know how this is gonna go.

- Do you think it's a good idea?

- I don't know.

I mean, I did speak with him months ago,

and I told him that if you wanted to make your amends

and speak to them face-to-face, that was on you.

I think somehow you pop in on a vacation,

because it's not my job to tell your story.

I have definitely went through some tough times in life.

I believe that everyone deserves a second chance.

But you have to put the effort in.

Ron lives in Florida.

So I guess he's taking initiative,

and he's just showing up.

- Sam's here, though.

- Oh, sh*t.

When I was talking to Ronnie, I never in a million years

thought that Sam was coming back.

Their relationship was a lot, you know?

So we got a situation.

♪ ♪

- ♪ Clear my brain before I'm on the right game ♪

♪ All day to day, my cell phone ring ♪

- I guess Ron believes that today is the day.

This is a sensitive situation.

His actions a couple years ago were so disappointing.

We did not approve of the behavior.

So I'm not confident that the conversation is gonna go well.

- Yeah.

- I think the phrase is, "You can't show up late to dinner

with a banana and expect everything to be peaches."

And he's two years late for dinner, pretty much.

All right, another analogy.

OK, another analogy.

You have to walk through the weeds

to get to the flowers sometimes.

All right, you didn't get that one, either?

- I get it, but I don't see the connection.

- OK.

A smooth sea never made a skilled sailor.

- Oh, my God.

- And right now the waters are very choppy.

- If I were you...

- Mm-hmm.

- I would go to Sam first because she's the one

with the biggest history with him.

And she brought her man here.

Sammi's in a good place. She just came back.

Everyone's having a great time with her,

but Sammi's relationship with Ron didn't end well.

- "When you left, Ron made out with two girls."

- f*ck you, OK, and enjoy your life.

- So she is the one who could be most affected by this,

like, spontaneous visit.

I don't think they should be, like, in a room together.

I think it's a little too soon.

It's not good.

- Yeah, it's definitely another situation

that I'm gonna have to handle somehow.

I'm a little tired.

But, I mean, I'm ready for today.

Like, what are we doing?

I have bruises everywhere on my leg.

- Oh, my God.

- What is happening?

- Look at that.

- Did you fall?

- That's from you.

- That's from me?

[laughter]

- Oh, my God, did you bite me?

- That's what you get for cheating

on me at the strip club.

- Oh, I don't want you to leave.

- It was fun.

- Justin has to leave in a few hours.

So I'm just thankful Justin met everybody and the vacation

went smooth with him.

Thanks for coming for me and meeting everybody.

- It was great.

- Now I have my family back again that I missed

for these years, and then I have this person in my life

that's great, and it's just,

I feel, like, really complete in all aspects

of my life.

And there's no better feeling than what I feel right now.

[quirky music]

- Hey. What's up? - Hi.

Can I come in for a second? - Yeah.

- Yeah, cool.

This right here is awkward.

What's up, fellas?

What's up, guys?

Sam is here with her new man, and I have to tell

her that Ron is on the way.

- So we have--

we have a little bit of a situation here.

This could be a recipe for disaster.

- The biggest mistake of my life--

ever going out with somebody like that.

- There's definitely some history there.

So, once Ron comes through that door, all bets are off.

So Ron actually lives in Florida

or just moved to Florida.

And he just texted me and said that he is on his way.

[dramatic music]

- Oh, my God.

I don't want to see Ron,

especially with my boyfriend here.

Is he staying the whole trip?

- I don't--I don't believe so, but he's on his way,

and I cannot stop that now.

- My heart is in my stomach.

My relationship with Ron was not healthy for me.

I'm sick of you putting me in this position!

I didn't do [bleep] to you!

We broke up in, like, ,

and I haven't talked to him since.

He's the reason I didn't come back in the first place.

- To be full disclosures, this was, like,

a thing that was happening over the past, you know,

two years, OK?

And no one knew that you were going to come back.

So I wanted to come in here first.

- Ugh.

I can't believe this is happening.

[dramatic music]

- I really don't know how it's gonna go in there.

- I'm definitely not ready for this.

My life has moved on.

[dramatic music]

[upbeat music]

- Last night was amazing.

- I got Justin alone for a second.

I said, "Is Sam the one?"

Are you gonna propose to her?

- Eventually, yeah. - Yes?

Aah!

So, yeah.

- [gasps]

- I actually feel very confident with Justin.

Like, I feel like I have nothing to worry about.

- I really like him.

- I was like, if you need any help proposing, these girls,

we did it for Lauren.

- Yeah, we're not doing speeches.

- You are the dump to our island.

[crowd booing]

Calm down, Staten Island. - It's joking.

- All right, no speeches.

- No. - He started sweating.

He got really nervous. I don't know.

- I really like him.

You know I read people, and I, like, see things.

- Oh, what do you read about me?

- That you're a b*tch, but you're amazing,

and I love you. - Oh, thank you.

OK, back to Justin.

- No, but Justin, he--

he truly loves Sam.

- Yeah.

- I don't feel, like, any--

- Negativity at all. - Yeah.

- So Ron's on his way.

I cannot change that.

I don't know how that's gonna go

when I tell the rest of the group.

- They're not friends with him?

- Well, only I've had catch-ups with him.

Ron has definitely tried to reach out via text message,

and maybe they don't feel that is enough

due to some of his actions over the past two years.

So, when he comes in today, I really

don't know how it's gonna go, to be honest with you.

But there's been times in my life

where I haven't been good to my friends as well.

And it took me a very long time to fix those relationships.

- Yeah. - So there's always a chance.

There's always a chance. - Not with me.

[laughter] - Well--well--

well, you know what I'm saying.

It's definitely a sensitive situation right now.

Sam just came back.

The roommates are still not speaking to Ronnie.

And Ron coming back could change everything.

So I got to say something, and I got to do it now.

Now that you are back, I'm trying to keep the peace.

So...

I want you guys to go out for the day,

and I'm going to handle this with Ron.

- Oh. Oh-oh-oh.

Thank God.

I'm cool with that. - Yes.

So wish me luck.

- That is actually very thoughtful of you.

- It is. It is. - Thank you.

Wow, like, that was a big deal to do that for me.

Mike was totally looking out for me in that moment.

And I'm so, like, thankful.

- We want to make sure that you're happy and you stay.

- Yeah. - Yeah?

- We'll see. We shall see. - [chuckles] Yeah.

All right, bye, guys.

Ronnie's gonna be nervous enough.

I don't need to put Sam in there, too.

Whew.

Wow.

- So we get the day together.

- Yeah, I'm glad I don't have to be a part of that.

- And, listen, I got tingles, because that conversation

went really well.

- You gonna be all right?

- Yeah, he doesn't affect my life anymore.

- But I'm going into the lion's den right now.

- Let's go to the suite. - Oh, cool.

- Let's start our day. - Let's do it.

- I don't know how this one's gonna go.

- Hey, girl. - Hey, what are you doing?

- I'm going to the suite.

- It's gonna be tough.

- Want to go to the suite? - OK.

- Let's go to the suite. Let's do it.

[phone chiming] - What the f*ck?

- I gave the stripper my number.

- I guess we're really doing this.

- Are we close?

- Yeah.

- Who wants a mimosa?

- I'll take one, go. b*tch.

[cork pops] - Whoa.

- Oh! Yahtzee!

- This is a delicate situation,

because the squad doesn't know that Ron's coming.

- I had fun last night. - Funny you say that.

We're going back tonight. - [laughs]

I woke up to a text from Ronald.

He is on his way.

[music winding down]

♪ ♪

- Who invited him?

- He just said he was on his way.

- My God. - Holy sh*t.

I don't know if I'm ready to see Ron.

He's done a lot of things that I don't approve of.

We all cut Ron off after the last incident.

So I'm not really sure how I feel about Ron coming.

[dramatic music]

- [sighs]

I'm nervous, you know?

It's been two years since I've seen everybody.

I have tried reaching out to the roommates

through text message, and I haven't gotten any response.

I was in a bad place.

And I get it. I understand.

So I feel like I need to do this.

- I wonder if he even really understands why...

- We're mad. - We haven't spoke to him.

It wasn't the sobriety. - No.

- It was, like, what was happening outside the house.

- Right. - Yep.

When you get arrested for, like, domestic violence,

you put us in a weird position.

- Yeah. - You know what I mean?

- Like, how could we be OK with that?

- His actions just were crazy.

Like, we couldn't condone any of that,

and, you know, even though you love someone,

you know, you just can't be around that.

- Any decision of his could have affected our lives.

- Because we're associated with that, like, we like it or not.

I don't even think he realizes how much.

- What--what happens with me has

nothing to do with you guys, and you have to remember that.

- No, it does. - No, it doesn't.

- Everything we do, it involves each other.

- When he stepped away or had to step away,

whatever that was, it could have went the other way.

They could have made us all step away because of it.

- Yes. - Do you understand?

- I actually thought that was gonna happen.

- Me too. - I thought so, too.

- Yeah, I don't know.

But he's trying to get some face time.

He wants to try to make some amends.

- Oh, my God.

- I have an Instagram Live Bible reading,

so I'm gonna miss it, but let me know how it goes.

[laughter]

- I'm going by the pool.

My schedule is packed, guys.

- We have to live tweet.

- I mean, he can come in here, but we're all so busy.

- Yeah.

- He's gonna have to hang out on his own.

- I think Mike got this.

- Yeah, whoever got the text should handle it.

All in favor of Michael handling?

- Yeah, Mike, you're taking the reins.

- No.

- Wait, is Sam still here and her man?

- Oh, my God.

Now I'm freaking out, because we finally got Sam back,

and I don't want to lose her again.

- Well, I knew that that was gonna be a problem.

So I removed her from the equation.

- OK.

- So she's not gonna see him at all?

- No, she's with Justin, and they're going out for the day.

- Well, that's good that they're not together

because I wouldn't have been able

to tell him and Justin apart.

- You're stupid. - What a f*cking as*h*le.

- Do you want to bring home some, like, protein bars

for those muscles of yours?

- No, I'm all right. I got some already.

- Good.

Let's get lunch or whatever.

- Get lunch and then--

- Then I'll take you to the airport.

- And then I'm off.

- I don't want to see Ron today.

And don't even worry about not saying goodbye to anybody.

They'll understand. - Yeah.

- Justin knows me and Ron had a toxic as hell relationship,

and this could be a situation.

And he's understanding about it all.

- Ready, babe?

- Yeah, let me just grab my stuff.

- I don't know how this conversation is gonna go.

Has anybody spoke to him?

- Over the past two years, I've had a catch-up here and there.

So you got a sponsor and everything?

- Yeah, I did inpatient. - Nice.

- And then I did IOP. - Oh, wow.

- I then did OP. - Damn.

I mean, are you ready to come back?

- I'm ready to come back. - You're ready to come back?

- I feel good, bro.

- I know that he has sort of hit rock bottom and misses us.

And sometimes you need to get some face time to--

to see someone eye to eye and explain your point of view.

I mean, listen, everyone is human,

and we all make mistakes.

I have been through addiction and recovery,

the court system, coming out of prison,

a lot of tough situations in my life.

Everyone at times can be messy,

but you don't turn your back on family.

And we got to try to fix this.

I don't know, I guess I can empathize with it.

When we came back five years ago,

my relationship with you guys was horrible.

It took you guys some time to vibe with me.

You know, I made my amends.

I did the right thing year after year,

and eventually you're like, "Wow, he's actually doing it,"

you know?

And now it's amazing.

Like, this is my neighbor right here.

This is my neighbor.

So I think if someone's trying to do the right thing,

that is commendable.

- I don't know if he's sober, dude, but he says he's sober.

- He just was on Reddit partying,

getting a lap dance... - He says he's sober, but...

- With a alcoholic beverage. - Like, let's not lie.

- I'd rather someone admit that they're

not putting the work in than make believe that they are.

- Yeah. - That's the biggest thing.

- Well, listen, I really hope he comes in

with some accountability.

I want him to be honest with us,

and I feel like today is the day.

You know what I'm saying?

Today is the day to say how you feel, how it affected you,

your family, everything, and just see

what comes out of his mouth.

That's it.

We've been through everything together--weddings, divorces,

I think I've just gone through so much

that I'm so relieved to be getting

out of here with my man.

Damn, we didn't even get to go to the pool.
