S04.E14: Sex, Lies And Stassi's Videotape

[Ubiquitous]

At this point - I am just as sick of Lala as I am of James. Yeah some episodes she makes a lot of sense but the way she keeps hanging around James annoys me to no end.

"Ew no I'll never have sex with him we're just friends etc etc etc"

Yet once again in the episode we see her trying to turn him on by going "Squeeze my ass." WTF - if you're so disgusted by him just STOP hanging out with him. Stop telling him to take photos of your ass. Stop telling him to squeeze your butt. Just stop. What's the point of "teasing" him if you're disgusted by him anyways. Ugh.

Two words: camera. time.

[teapot]

This is Jax the Pinch here.  You know he was just trying to deflect the fact that when he does wear deodorant he is not buying the stuff.  Likely he hits the local Walgreens and when no one is looking does a pits-smear.

 

 

 

I agree except its more like she is pretending she wore the whole raging entitled bitch thing as a sweater and it has gotten slightly warm and she maybe took if off and now its draped over her shoulders.  Because I don't see its so much as "inside".  It is almost fun to watch her try and do that "look over there" thing in terms of how arrogant she was in her supposed exit for good last time.

I've been a fan of her podcast since the beginning.  She's grown up a lot,  and she seems really funny and normal.  She's said that a lot of the "bitch" behavior was for TV

[HunterHunted]

I believe Frank was the one Jax got into a fight with when he wore the chunky sweater to Stassi's Fucking Birthday.

He was, though somehow Sandoval got involved in that fight too.

The thing that Stassi refuses to acknowledge with the whole Frank debacle is Kristen and Katie told her to be careful with him because Frank held on to the information that Jax was cheating and waited to deploy it when Stassi and Jax were in a bad place. Kristen and Katie didn't trust him and they were right not to. Frank was an epic asshole. He did something that not even Jax or Kristen would do which is straight up insult a customer to their face in front of other customers. Jax is an immature douche, but almost all of Frank's scenes showed him to be mean.

[ParadoxLost]

Jax got arrested for stealing sunglasses, but somehow I think this might be more pathetic. There is no way Frank started out asking for $900. He must have started out asking for a couple thousand and had websites laugh in his face. This show is Bravo's most popular non-housewife show, but still these chucklefucks are nobodies. And when you get to the point that you are asking for $900 for a sex tape, I would just keep the tape because selling a sex tape for $900 is almost as pathetic as having to admit that your tape was only worth $900.

 

I'm not convinced Frank tried to sell the tape because someone would have paid more than $900 dollars, even for D list reality tv personalities.  I think that the show is leaving parts out because its convenient to Lisa's narrative.  I bet it went more like this....Frank felt that SUR or VanderPump Rules owed him severance or Stassi owed him money for something and Frank threatened to release the tape as leverage to get what he felt he was owed.  That is the only scenario where it makes sense that this scandal was resolved for $900.

[Thumper]

I always wonder why Lisa never comes to realize how narcissistic she looks in these two scenarios:

 

1) Lisa must punish someone (Jax this time)  for bad behavior so there is the appearance that Lisa is a good business woman but in actual fact the TV show matters and not her restaurant and we'll just hope no one mentions the Jax steals everything from Sur that is not nailed down montage at the reunion

 

and

 

2) You (Stassi this time) are a pimple on the ass of Lisa's life.  You and your apologies mean nothing to Lisa but sit your ass down so Lisa can berate you some more.

 

I started watching RHOBH again this season.  Watching Lisa on this episode of VR shows me why she has the "I'm in charge" attitude on RHOBH.  Interesting.

[Tara Ariano]

In case you missed it, here's the Previously.TV post on the episode!

 

Vanderpump Rules's Stassi Says, 'Sorry, 2016'
The Stassi apology tour rolls through SUR, where the queen bitch meets Mother for a face-off that gets surprisingly frank about how much blackmail storyline we weren't seeing last season.

[Nanny pants]

I never talked about the having to hold in my nausea watching James and Lala pose sexy. That was.. not sexy. Lala just gets worse and worse.

Is it just me, or do all these waiters, bartenders, DJs seem to engage in an inordinate amount of photo shoots? And, um, why exactly.

[Nanny pants]

Does anyone know why Jax would have gotten a warrant for his arrest when he had been legally bonded out? Does that mean he wasn't supposed to leave town, or just that he needed to check in with somebody regarding his whereabouts and didn't? Also, how do you have a non-reaction to news like that? "What, a bench warrant? Nbd, I'm in California and my lawyer's on the case."

And if he had a lawyer, the courts/DAs office would not be contacting him directly. It would have to go through his lawyer.

That's along the lines of what I was thinking. $900 is kind of a random number to ask for. I figured it was to pay for a very specific debt or something, but your scenario makes sense as well.

[heatherchandler]

Guess I'm missing out on life, but I've never been to a Hooters.  Jax & the Toms chowing down on those chicken things did not give me any motivation to seek one out.  

 

Sandoval's place still looks like an awful dump to me.  I don't get it.  Aren't the chucklefucks making much from the show so they can move to better places?  Guess not.

 

Way to go, Schemer.  Keep plying your boozehound hubby with more booze.  If he ain't an alcoholic already, good way to make sure he becomes one.  Man, she really is a shallow fuckin' moron.  He ain't much better.  Maybe it's better he stays silent.

 

Ok, I have to say, everyone RAVES about the wings from Hooters, but OMG they are disgusting.  They are breaded.  BLECKKK. 

 

Yeah they don't make money from the show - something like $5,000/episode.  So they make like $50,000/year.  In LA!  They all think they are getting this awesome exposure, so they keep working for peanuts.  Lisa is an asshole - she pays them next to nothing and they let her.  Meanwhile, I am sure she is making a LOT of money off the show.  What are they going to do?  Go to another tv show?  They are not talented, nor are they good looking. 

 

Lisa keeps claiming they are so hot, but no, they are not.  Does she actually think there are people who look at Jax and think he's hot?  She seems to think Peter is super hot too.  It is so weird.

 

OMG Shay looks (and acts) just like Silent Bob!  Has anyone caught this before?

That makes a lot more sense. She probably failed to give him his credit card tips or last week's wages.

[SFoster21]

And if he had a lawyer, the courts/DAs office would not be contacting him directly. It would have to go through his lawyer.

I don't know, but my speculation is that no local counsel was retained and appeared (made a record). He was bailed out of jail before he saw a judge and missed his arraignment date. He has probably retained LA counsel, so he has a lawyer, but not on record in Hawaii. This is purely speculation.

[bblancobrnx]

I assumed that was Brittany's employee discount card he "borrowed" from her, but I've only been to Hooters a handful of times in the 1990's.

TBH, I am pretty sure I saw his name in the corner of it... good old 1080p Edited February 3, 2016 by bblancobrnx

1. Hooters wings are awful. The only thing I can think of is that maybe being in the northeast I am spoiled by phenomenal chicken wings and that maybe in a lot of the country Hooters wings are the only game in town? Or perhaps there are a lot of places with wings that are actually worse? You just do not bread wings. That is a disgrace.

2. I think there is usually over 20 episodes so it's more like $100,000 per season, but that is STILL not a lot of money in that part of the country and for the way these kids party

Hilariously--on this very page I now have an ad for Wingstop. I'm not a wing connoisseur, but I think Wingstop is pretty good, and has locations all over California. I mean, maybe not the best ever, but decent.

But you don't wear hot pants (or spray-tan-colored nylons, for that matter) to work at Wingstop, so Brittany's wardrobe is probably not up to par.

[hatchetgirl]

Argh. Hooters. I have friends who take their young kids there. I don't get it.

I want to know more about Jax and his potential jail time. Please let him go to jail.

Lala and drug dealers are hot. She's so gross.

[hoodooznoodooz]

So has Jax's mom always had this nonchalant attitude with regard to his shenanigans? I don't care if he is almost 40. If I saw that my adult son stole a lot of stuff from a restaurant, I would lecture him and make him return the items, apologize and pay for anything that he had depleted.

[heatherchandler]

I believe Frank was the one Jax got into a fight with when he wore the chunky sweater to Stassi's Fucking Birthday.

Ok so I've been watching season 1 and 2 (I don't know why, I pay for Hulu and I guess I want my money's worth) but I saw something really weird. So when Jax runs toward Frank when they are "fighting" out in the parking lot (during Stassi's birthday), we see him take off his chunky sweater, charge toward Frank... and then...hug him. Like fully just grab him around the waist and hold him. Has anyone else noticed this?? I am starting to wonder- I mean I know reality tv is fake, so I started thinking that the whole fight was huge fake act. I don't know, maybe I should stop torturing myself watching this crap!

[tenativelyyours]

But for me that makes her even more pathetic and heinous.   She's 'played' this role since the very first episode.  What devotion to her 'craft'.

[Misslindsey]

That makes more sense. If Frank is like the rest of these idiots I could see him throwing out a random number, because well...they are all idiots, but your theory makes much more sense. I have a harder time believing that Lisa has no record of paying the $900 or something. That does not seem like Lisa. Has the tape ever surfaced? Also, between or during what seasons did this sex tape thing happen, with Lisa paying him off? 

[OnceSane]

Oh, Stassi…no one cares.

[luleetuni]

I believe it was this wallet just in a different color

http://store.miumiu.com/?dep=accessories&cat=wallets&product=5MH109_N88_F0770

Stassi said a while ago in an interview that she gained a lot of weight after she left sur because she stopped abusing adderall. She claimed that they all take it, which I believe was the same interview Lisa was referring to in the episode accusing the staff of being drug users.

I like the show focusing on the original group rather than the new kids, dysfunctional as they may be, still entertaining. Love Schwartz saying jax and Kristen are probably soulmates.

Stassi bitching about the solo sex tape is still funny considering she was the one who ultimately told the world about it. Is it wrong that all I can think of is what the title would have been? Vanderhump rules? Stassi SURvices herself?

[Ubiquitous]

TBH, I am pretty sure I saw his name in the corner of it... good old 1080p

OK, now I am compelled to do 'research" on this 50% Hooters discount card of JAX's, dammit! LOL

 

Ok, I have to say, everyone RAVES about the wings from Hooters, but OMG they are disgusting.  They are breaded.  BLECKKK. 

 

OMG Shay looks (and acts) just like Silent Bob!  Has anyone caught this before? 

By "breaded", did you mean "fried"? I thought buffalo wings are fried and then tossed in hot sauce.

 I do not recall the specifics about Frank, but I do remember us mocking their parking lot antics in Vegas and opining that they all appeared to be making out in the parking lot when TVwoP was around.

[TattleTeeny]

Argh. Hooters. I have friends who take their young kids there. I don't get it.

 

I don't really understand what makes Hooters unsuitable for kids. Is it shorts and boobs? Because despite the outfits being hideously ugly and heinously outdated (these poor girls, man--those pantyhose and those puffy socks! And do they wear velcro high-top Reeboks too? Oy), they don't show off anything that can't be seen all summer anywhere else.

Unless my memory is betraying me, I recall the Hooters wings being breaded and then fried, and then covered in sauce.  The wings I like (most wings, I believe) are just cooked (baked?) with the sauce.  The Hooters wings were more like Kentucky Fried Chicken with sauce - the breading was so gross.  I guess I am not sure how other wings are made, but I am not usually able to pull off a layer of breading.

 

The best (in my humble opinion) are from Tomato Head Pizza on Randolph, in Chicago.  Sadly, I believe they closed.  I still think about the wings...  Ok, sorry to be so off-topic! 

[eurekagirl mOo]

I don't get the hate for Hooters either. The girls wear tight clothes? UH Whatever. And there wings are awesome.

 

Jax is a idiot. Schena is a idiot. Basically there all idiots. But there MY idiots and I  live to watch them BE idiots!

I guess we may never know--the original post appears to be M.I.A. now, at least from where I sit. Oh well. Anyway,  if Britany wants to serve food at Hooters, to adults and kids, it's an honest living--people always need to eat, and maybe she's a better server than these other maniacs (who don't wear much more--and maybe even less, technically).

I just finished watching all the past seasons on Hulu and am so glad someone else is torturing themselves as well! : )

[gunderda]

Never had Hooters chicken wings but I do know boneless chicken wings are breaded cause they're basically like chicken nuggets.  

I like my traditional (aka bone-in) wings extra crispy! (I've only had chicken wings at Buffalo Wild Wings)

 

 

I don't know why but it did seem a little ironic that Brittney got a job at Hooters. 

 

I think I zoned out about half of this episode.  

[Ubiquitous]

I don't know why but it did seem a little ironic that Brittney got a job at Hooters. 

I can't help but cynically think she already worked at Hooters and did the interview with mega-millionaire Lisa Vanderbucks to be with Jax (keep an eye on him better?) or have a better chance at being "discovered" than the franchise to which she transferred.

 

On a loosely-related topic, every time I see scenes with StASSi I forget she's not visiting from NYC.

[ScoobieDoobs]

Since I've never been to a Hooters, I can't hate or like on it.  Are they especially any diff than your ordinary pub-type joint or TGIFriday's?  The chicken things didn't look horrible to me, just meh.  And Jax's comment about the gals looking more attractive than usually are in Hooters -- was that him just being a thoughtless a-hole (as usual) or trying to compliment Brittany (er, while insulting all women working in Hooters everywhere else)?

 

Why would it be unsuitable to bring children to a Hooters?  The waitresses are covered up.  There are cocktail waitresses in Atlantic City & Vegas who wear much more revealing outfits.  And children can see them.  I'm wondering if people may object to the name (Hooters) maybe?  Doesn't bother me, but some may find it bothersome.

 

I'm still conflicted in what I think of Brittany.  I want to dismiss her as an idiot for being with Jax -- and yet, I don't think it's fair to do that.  I suspect we don't have the full picture on her.  She actually doesn't seem at all like the typical chucklefuck.  Maybe cuz she isn't.  She seems hard-working, responsible & mature.  Er, huh?  What the heck is she doing with Jax?  She sure seems out of place on this show.

[Darva6]

mega-millionaire Lisa Vanderbucks

 

Ubiquitous, I love that when you refer to Lisa you always preface it with something sarcastic and awesome like "successful businesswoman Lisa Vanderbucks", "multimillionairess Lisa Vanderbucks", etc. It makes me laugh every time.

[heatherchandler]

Don't leave out that she constantly harassed the woman that Jax was revenge-dating.

 

That was so awful and disgusting on so many levels.  Stassi was despicable, that girl (Laura-Leigh) was looney-tunes but did not deserve that sick, twisted game Jax and Stassi played with her.

 

At this point - I am just as sick of Lala as I am of James. Yeah some episodes she makes a lot of sense but the way she keeps hanging around James annoys me to no end.

"Ew no I'll never have sex with him we're just friends etc etc etc"

I would never bring my kids to Hooters.  The food is terrible, for one, but the fact that the women wear tight shorts and tops is gross.  Of course my kids see way more skin on a summer day, I don't care if they see naked boobs and butts (nothing gross about bodies), but the fact that the woman are wearing these outfits (with the disgusting tan nylons) to put their bodies on display is what really makes me sick.  It is a misogynistic establishment, making money off women wearing tight clothes.  I don't see a lot of respect for women there.  Ick.

Which is doubly disturbing after that Jezebel article.

 

Lisa

Man, that "old woman" crack from Stassi really stings.

 

I used to love Jezebel, but now I vow never to go to it.  It used to be funny and wonderful, but something has changed.

 

Yes, Lisa does NOT see herself as the "old woman."  She was always the young thing, hanging around Ken and his older friends.  Now she is the old lady and she seems to be in denial.

[TattleTeeny]

I agree about the nylons part! No one should have to see that, and that is the only thing about any of this that I, as a woman, find disrespectful to my gender.

Seriously, though, will Hooters ever update that get-up? I swear, I got it into my head that they had, at least in that the shorts are black now? I'm not a carnivore though, so what do I know? I think I've been to a Hooters only once or twice, and that was just for booze.

[ghoulina]

The may have been at one time. They were all over each other's IGs. But now I wonder if it was just for promoting the show. James now has a new girlfriend, if you go by his Instagram.

OFF TOPIC POST HERE THAT ONLY CONNECTS TO THE ACTUAL SHOW BY A THREAD

So, most wings are simply deep fried and then tossed in sauce or rubbed with a dry rub...no breading. It isn't needed as the skin from the wing makes a nice and crispy layer. Hooters actually coats the wing with breading and then deep fries it then tosses it in sauce, the same way a boneless wing would be made. I think it is an affront to what can be a delicious delicacy. That being said I have only had Hooters wings once because I thought they sucked. Around here I can name a few places with top tier wings within 15 minutes of me, so no reason to ever go there again. I can see beautiful women all around at any time. No reason to go to Hooters for that either. I have nothing against it, just absolutely no reason to ever find myself there.

What is 1080p

1080p is the highest resolution on most HDTV's over 27". It was the highest TV resolution period for a while until they recently came out with these 4k TV's

It is 1080 lines of horizontal resolution refreshed in a progressive manner (as opposed to an interlaced manner)

Progressive - every line on the screen is displayed at all times

Interlaced - every other line is only displayed at any one time on the screen, though the picture alternates back and forth so quickly between lines that you really can't tell with the naked eye)

I believe 4k TV's now have 4000 lines of horizontal resolution (which will be great for especially large screens) but as far as I know, no one is broadcasting in that resolution at the current time

So someone on here kindly posted the TMZ clip of Jax shoplifiting and you see at the end of it the cops come up to him so he then gets arrested. Obviously the police would have taken the sunglasses off Jax.

BUT

last nights episode shows a flashback of him in the ocean with the sunglasses and someone mentions it.

Plus the older episode they show another clip and one of the other guys says he has them on as well at the beach.

 

Set-up by Bravo or a pair from earlier he got away with stealing. There were deleted sunglass pics from Brittany's instagram, so that second scenario is actually very likely, IMO.

[Jextella]

Does anyone know why Jax would have gotten a warrant for his arrest when he had been legally bonded out? Does that mean he wasn't supposed to leave town, or just that he needed to check in with somebody regarding his whereabouts and didn't? Also, how do you have a non-reaction to news like that? "What, a bench warrant? Nbd, I'm in California and my lawyer's on the case."

 

I'm curious about Schwartz' money.  How does that work?  Does he get his $15k back for bailing out Jax?

 

I'm finding Jax's presence on the show increasingly sad. The man is nearly 40 (if not over 40) and he's still acting like he's a week out of the frat house. While his antics are juvenile, he's getting to look more like the dad of someone on one of these shows. How sad will he be as he closes in on 50, still tending bar, still chasing tail? Not fun.

 

After going through - and seeing - some stuff, I find myself being less judgmental about others these days.  Life is hard to navigate. 

 

Not everyone is born with a good tool set, not everyone knows where to get a good tool set, and not everyone knows how to use a good tool set if given one.  Everything is on a scale.  I don't think a life as a bartender is a bad life.  Who says everyone has to aspire to being lawyers and doctors and engineers.

I just have to say, I play this mobile game called "Stop" (it's a lot like Scattegories, if you're familiar) and they did not accept my answer of "mactor" for "Words with ct" in the M category. I was highly offended!

I think the glasses he was wearing whist surfing were ANOTHER pair of stolen shades.  I can imagine he doesn't buy much, he steals most of his high-end goods.  He's seriously a pathological liar, and I am not sure why Lisa would keep him around.  Some businesswoman!  Really smart lady.

 

Yeah Brittany had posted pics of the stolen glasses, minutes before he was arrested if memory serves.

The bail was $11,000. The actual cash amount put up by Schwartz was $1100 to secure J's release. The rest would be owed if Jax failed to make his court date.

I don't know for sure, but I think that Jax was released before he saw a judge. It was a weekend, right? So, bond was set at the police station (judge calls in) and the defendant is due to appear at his next court date, the arraignment, or risk a bench warrant.

Someone asked upthread why Jax' lawyer wasn't

called and I think that he probably did not obtain counsel until he got back to LA. So, no local counsel has appeared on his behalf.

On the last episode, Jax reimbursed Tom for the money that was advanced.

I think the glasses he was wearing whist surfing were ANOTHER pair of stolen shades.  I can imagine he doesn't buy much, he steals most of his high-end goods.  He's seriously a pathological liar, and I am not sure why Lisa would keep him around.  Some businesswoman!  Really smart lady.

 

JFC. So, the tally of potentially stolen sunglasses is up to 3, 4 if you count the Alexander McQueens he stole from Carmen and regifted to Katie. WHAT IS WITH THIS MAN AND SUNGLASSES?!

New to post but this is bugging me and i cannot see that anyone has mentioned this so far...but...

 

So someone on here kindly posted the TMZ clip of Jax shoplifiting and you see at the end of it the cops come up to him so he then gets arrested. Obviously the police would have taken the sunglasses off Jax.

 

BUT

 

last nights episode shows a flashback of him in the ocean with the sunglasses and someone mentions it.

Plus the older episode they show another clip and one of the other guys says he has them on as well at the beach.

 

WTF?!? is this all a setup by bravo? none of this adds up....what am i missing here?.

I was under the impression Jax found a pair in his hotel room and took them b/c last week he said something about them and I wondered why he would be arrested for taking something that was left behind by the previous guest (and I am postive hotels do not leave free sunglasses for their guests in their rooms). It was at the end that he made his phone call from jail, saying he'd been arrested for shoplifting.Unless I misheard what he said and the store was in the hotel lobby, therewere two pairs.

Because as long as he's not stealing a car, he thinks it's ok to take $300 sunglasses.

Lala has implied she would hook up with him if he was a more advanced thief, so maybe grand theft auto is in his future. I mean it's no sexy drug dealer, but what is?

I always wonder why Lisa never comes to realize how narcissistic she looks in these two scenarios:

 

1) Lisa must punish someone (Jax this time)  for bad behavior so there is the appearance that Lisa is a good business woman but in actual fact the TV show matters and not her restaurant and we'll just hope no one mentions the Jax steals everything from Sur that is not nailed down montage at the reunion

 

and

 

2) You (Stassi this time) are a pimple on the ass of Lisa's life.  You and your apologies mean nothing to Lisa but sit your ass down so Lisa can berate you some more.

The convo with Stassi was so interesting because each of them so clearly has the other's number - peas in a pod!

I did find the talk with Lisa/Stassi funny because Lisa was all, "Years ago, you were 22, I took you in and took care of you" and in Stassi's talking head, Stassi was like, "she gave me a job..?" which is the truth. I know, Lisa did end up paying Frank off but again, Stassi is kind of right in that apparently Lisa did it with cash and there is no record of it, so who's to say Frank won't change his mind about releasing it? I suppose he wouldn't now but who knows.
