S14.E13: Dinner Disasters and Breakfast Breakdowns

[ZettaK]

Brynn and Erin confront Jessel about the way she's changed; an argument between Ubah and Brynn ends dinner on a dramatic note; a comment from Ubah causes Erin to break down in tears; a trip to the beach leads to harsh critiques.

First aired on 1/7/2025.

Strange dynamic with this group. They’re always touching each others bodies, sharing naked pictures. Then, gossiping nastily about whoever left the room, and saying vile things about each other. So weird. They just really hate one another, don’t they? 
 

Sai nearly peeing herself laughing at Ubah’s ‘why are you here?!’ was funny tho. First time I liked her.

These women don’t interest me in the least.

[ZettaK]

Ubah was really drunk at dinner. But she is always ready for a fight, and she complains about everything. She was also rude the next day at the beach. And she implied Brynn had sex to be on the show.

Sad that Erin's father had cancer.

A big part of it, for me, is you can’t get a handle on who they really are. Everything they say comes off completely inauthentic. Each ‘scene’ it’s like their personalities are completely different.  They all say they love and adore each other, but then their faces turn and they’re ripping their ‘friend’ to pieces.  The fights with the OG cast seemed real. These conversations are like little skits. Cut! Next scene!

Brynn reminds me of a line from A Little Night Music:  “I hate you being happy. I hate anyone being happy.”

I don't  know why Brynn went after Jessel about a photographer  for her children's  birthday,  gasp, how terrible. Capture those moments,  they grow up fast.  Even Jenna bugged  me tonight, she's laughing when she  shows a picture  of her pubic hair, then in her confessional sounded upset they laughed. Personally,  I wouldn't  want to see it.

I'm sorry  both Erin's  parents  have cancer. That's a heartache  to deal with.

My whole confusion is the way they start arguing about something that was said or done off camera.  I feel like we're constantly getting flashbacks instead of real time interactions.  It makes it really hard to sort out who is friends with whom and who has an issue with someone and why.

Not sure why they had to turn on Jessel for basically enjoying her job on the show. Shes not hurting anybody and as was pointed out the rest of them have enjoyed glam and photos.  I did understand Sai not caring for Pavit but getting along with Jessel anyway.  
Brynn loves to poke poke poke and when she gets it back, she becomes a victim. Shes really awful. I did like Ubah going off at the restaurant and on the van. 
Erin too loves to gossip and again shes kissing Brynn’s ass for some reason.  Ubah shouldn’t have brought up cancer while trying to make her point.  
By the way Erin, I cant picture you and Abe having sex nor do I want to.

This show is the middle-age version of 7th grade, with (marginally) better field trips but more unnecessary drama.

[SweetieDarling]

Why are they bitching about everything being a photo shoot for Jessel? Did they watch last season? Why is it Sai brings so much luggage?  Oh Yeah, because she needs to be photographed in everything so she can post it. I can't with these women girls.

 

Except for Rebecca, everyone defended Jessel in their talking heads but said NOTHING at the table as Jessel was being ripped apart for behavior they all take part in. Nice friends.

And WHY did Jessel apologize to Erin? She should be pissed off at her for starting the whole thing with her embellished story, then bringing it up at the dinner table.

They are not real friends with anybody in the cast.

Frankly it seemed beneath Jenna to do that sort of thing.

[janiema]

Brynn is such a bully and a loser.

I’m liking Sai and Jessel this season.

[StevieRocks]

Nothing is more tedious than an unimaginative lunk like Brynn who constantly spouts banal cliches. Between that and the whiny baby voice with the waiter--you're forty years old. It's not cute when a fourteen year-old does it. And the smiling for the cameras after the manufactured sh** stirring is beyond boring. Finally, Brynn is not 'playing chess.' She would struggle to play checkers.

Same! Erin has no chill. She wants to be seen as sexy, but she’s so uptight. I can’t imagine her being sexual or wanting to please a partner. More like, a pillow princess who expects to be serviced and is never satisfied.  Yet, I can see Jessel and Pavit enjoying each other——Not that I want to! Lol anymore than I’d want to see a photo of a friend’s pubic hair. Jenna, why!?  Although, their drawings of it were hilarious.
 

Jessel owned Brynn’s pathetic ass in that argument about photos and glam. She had to go to the ‘but I just want to hang out with you’ Liar, you thought you’d burn and embarrass Jessel with that and the others would laugh with you.  But Duh, you’re all in that game. So, you attack Jessel for it and you’re attacking alll of them for it, including yourself.  So, she read the room and switched tactics to her fallback of ‘woe is me, I’m so lonely and have no kids! And just want friends!’
 

And Erin, ugh she cannot stand being corrected. ‘What is wrong with your brain!? Shut up!’ Wow, great comebacks.  Can’t believe I liked her best when this show first came on lol. Unlike Erin, I can admit when I was wrong! So very wrong. 

[Saph]

Sai is LITERALLY a "Content Creator."  So when it comes to photo ops, SHE should not be one to talk/snark behind people's backs! 

Get over yourself, Erin.  NO ONE wants to picture you & your hapless husband having sex.

Is it just me? Jessel looks really pretty in those professional photography photos!

I don't share the Jenna love everyone seems to have.  I think she's strange and an oddball and I have a hard time understanding anything she says. Frankly, I just don't get her. 

[hoodooznoodooz]

Heh. 

“I tried to stick up for you, but no one ever listens to me.”

[hoodooznoodooz]

It takes so little to enrage Erin and Ubah? Is it just for the camera? But there are those off-camera arguments, too.

[hoodooznoodooz]

I really hate Cirkul commercials.

[hoodooznoodooz]

Jessel, Sai and Brynn would all annoy me, constantly taking photos of themselves. And anyone else I overlooked.

Erin was my early favorite too.  I also can admit when I was wrong.  She is an uptight Brynn, stirring the pot with exaggerations and lies, and then falling apart when the target pushes back.  Telling that Jessel wanted to smooth things over with her and actually apologized for her part.  But, nothing from Erin for literally telling her there was something wrong with her brain for correcting the narrative. Gross.

Sai, girl, every single thing you wear is styled to the point that it comes off as completely inorganic.  You have zero room to criticize anyone for being curated.

I liked her last season but now, 🫤 meh

[hoodooznoodooz]

Racquel on WWHL said that she thought Ubah was rude, criticizing her favorite childhood beach. But she still sided with Ubah in the argument with Brynn. That impressed me.
