If you're like, Hey, wait a minute. I didn't hear part one guys. It's because we put out a lot of recaps. Go back and listen to part one. Okay. It's before this one. Bye. Enjoy the show.

So we're at Jesse's house and Isabella is there and she's drawing or whatever and she has a booger. She gives it to Jesse, he takes it and he throws it away. And he's like- I know you love that. I thought that was so funny. I was fine with it. He's like, everything okay? She's like, I have a booger.

It's right on her finger. He's like, okay, I will take that booger. I loved it because it meant that Jesse had to have a booger on his finger. So I was like, more power to Isabella, you know? So Jesse is having a moment of clarity where he's like, you can only be, you can only be bitter for so long. And now I'm exhausted.

So I'm going to be really nice. I don't want it to consume me. I don't want my wife's whoredom to consume me. So, you know, I have three things. I've got my relationship, my business and my daughter. So I'm going to, and I have my business. I've got Isabella. Are you singing color purple? I got my baby. I got a piano I don't play. I believe Michelle is a whore. And I know it in my bones because she's slutty, slutty, slutty.

And I buy it up until the moment he starts tap dancing. I'm like, well, oh my God, I can't. I'm leaving this movie. Not in the bloomers. I'm not staying in a movie that forces Sealy to tap dance in a fabric store. I will not do it. Jesse's like, Michelle, until you do right by me, you will not be allowed to see Isabel. So yeah, I'm like, I'm not gonna do it. I'm not gonna do it.

I'm not gonna do it. I'm not gonna do it. I'm not gonna do it. I'm not gonna do it. I'm not gonna do it. I'm not gonna do it. Jessie's like, Michelle, until you do right by me, you will not be allowed to see Isabella. So, yeah, so the iPad rings, Michelle is there, and Isabella's like, Michelle is like, guess what, Isabella, I found your key in the refrigerator. That's mommy's favorite place, because it's cold. And she's like, you got bring me the refrigerator. That's mommy's favorite place, cause it's cold. And she's like, you can bring me the key.

You can bring it. You can drop it off. And she's like, no, I'm not going to drop it off. What are you talking about? You are the one who left it at home. And Jessie's like, yeah, she'll get her way. Cause she's bossy. And she goes, no, you drop it off.

And Michelle's like, okay, I'll drop it. I will do it off. I will do it. Doesn't Michelle say something like, well, I have concerns about dropping off the key because it's my house key, but she still drops it off? I'm like, why does your four year old have access to the house key?

I'm sorry. I mean, Jesse can copy the key. He can just get the key off the four-year-old. It's not like it's gonna be that tricky. Besides, doesn't Rob Reiner have like a guard at the front who can let them all in? I don't understand why you do that. Yeah, except everybody knows the code is meatloaf.

No, everybody knows the code is meathead. So. Jesse's like, yeah, we're gonna figure it out. Look how I opened the door for Michelle. I'm a good person now. So she's just ignoring him. And she's like, yeah, we're going to figure it out. Look how I opened the door for Michelle. I'm a good person now. So she's just ignoring him. And she's like, here is your key. And Isabella takes the key and she goes,

refrigerator, it's not cold. She's like, you're lying to me, mommy. That's what daddy says you always do. You lying whore. So, Jesse is doing this whole thing of like, I'm just coexisting with Michelle at this point. We live this parallel life until that life collides again in a positive way.

I think it'll work out. He's basically doing this whole like, I'm a good evolved guy and it's up to her to mature because I've already matured and I'm classy. I'm gonna drink my wine. I'm like, don't buy it for one second. We saw the last episode. Why are you acting like it's been a year since the last episode? I know.

Yeah, after all of this, I've really learned to mature now. And he's like, yeah, I really want things to work out with Michelle. So it comes back to them and he's like, did you bring the Crocs too? She's like, no, they, I was in a rush and goes, yeah, and the pink sippy cup. Just get a new pink sippy cup, sir. So then, um, we now go to Brittany's house cause it's time for stop for an apology dinner. So chef Gino is there and, um, Britt is offering everyone shots at this dinner to Apollo this dinner for

apologizing for drunken behavior for drunkenly accusing someone of being too drunk so they can have some shots to kick off the drunken apology drunk. Exactly. Let's have shots and caviar y'all. I just think it's really important. She knows real cute. He's also real cute. So Janet, everybody arrives, you know, and Mia's like, I feel so uncomfortable. Am I coming to my funeral? Why is everybody in black?

But then Kristen comes in and like bright orange, like straight from selling trinkets at a farmer's market. Hey guys, made $35. What's going on everyone? They're like, does anybody smell patchouli? It's just like a big puff of smoke in Christmas there. It was incense, stupid. Oh, I made $16.

I was so close to making more. As one person once sang, I was on the edge of 17. Okay, so it's really quiet. Everyone's just staring at each other, like waiting to talk. So Brittany's like, okay, well, I think at the beginning of this dinner, I need to address what happened the other day in Santa Barbara's because you know, I love you, Nia. I love you. So I just want to clear my air. Okay, so I'm sorry how it came across, how it came out. That was crazy. Okay, like if we weren't drinking all day and eating all day and just

drunk off our asses, okay, it's not that drinking's an excuse, but we were just drunk, you know? So I hope that that's okay. I'm like, yeah, you were shit faced and having an alcoholic disc. It is funny cause I didn't even clock this when you said it at the top of the show. It didn't even, I didn't even clock the fact that they are, they're apologizing for accusing Danny of being wasted and they're apologizing for the They had bad delivery because they themselves were wasted it is actually hilarious

And you know, I would also say jacks up because both of them were not just drunk They were both like very agitated and like So it's just funny that this whole plot line is going on with Jax while they're all still jacking up on trip and yell I know Jeff so Jasmine apologizes for raising her voice And so Nia is basically like Nia's like okay you bitches You guys want to mess with the passion queen because you're about to get passionate queen real book real good because I got a secret For you. It's my backstory So Nia tells. All I've ever wanted was world peace.

Oh shit, we're about to look real bad on television. So Nia explains why she acts the way she does. And so she tells a story, which is, you know, it's an emotional story because she talks about how growing up she was homeless and she and her mom, they would have to camp out in people's backyards living on sofas and they lived in cars. And then when she was living in LA in between jobs, or she lived in her car and she would sleep in the backseat and how mortifying it was to have security guard

like knock on the window and say, you gotta like go move your car to Ralph's, which is a supermarket over here. And it is a very moving story. And I liked it because she's basically like, yeah, you guys thought you could come for me, but I've got this, I have a torturous backstory and I'm gonna destroy you all with it.

I have to say, I cried a little bit, which is kind of rare. I cried the weirdest times, but I kind of cried a little bit. And then I started cracking up because she's like going through this whole thing. Like we're homeless. I mean, even as an adult, I was sleeping in my own car.

And so there's a reason why it's important to me to stay positive. So I'm not really pretending everything's perfect. I'm just staying positive and I'm kind of crying because I mean, that's, you know, like it's so sad and it's so sweet. Like she's such a sweet person. And then I started laughing

because I cut to Brittany's face and Brittany's face is just like this. She like realized like this is her season where she's supposed to be the biggest victim on earth and all this stuff with Jack, she's supposed to be getting all this and she threw it away in one second and probably a coked outrage,

yelling at this poor woman who's now making herself the biggest martyr on the show. And you just see Brittany like, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, come pick a minute. You just see it go across her face. I was cracking up. So Kristen's like, yeah, I know I didn't. You went through so much. If you mess with me, you're messing with Stevie. You have to go through me first. I was like, oh, okay. Doesn't seem too threatening. Also, I loved this moment that,

this is like a moment where Kristen's like, wow. Like she's pledging her support for Nia, but I'm like, you're also revealing you're kind of a shitty friend. How do you not know this about Nia? Do you guys ever ask your friends about like their lives? How do you, that seems like a pretty big deal. Um, I also was laughing because I too was like, this was a, this was like, it's an emotional story and I was like very moved and I was like, wow,

like that I can't even imagine. And yet when a similar story was told on selling sunset, when Chris shell was like, yeah, I was raising a car. I was just like, fuck you, Chrishell. Don't even try to manipulate me like that. It was just, Chrishell just comes out of the weirdest times. And it's like, I was the smelling kid in school, guys. Like, okay. Well, Nia, I think the difference in Nia's is because she's actually

explaining why she's so positive. Whereas Chrishell, it came from stupid fights. It's like, the reason why I need to sell this three bedroom, four bathroom why she's so positive. Whereas, for Shella, it came from stupid fights. They were in. The reason why I need to sell this three bedroom, four bathroom house in Sherman Oaks is because I was the smelly kid. Right. Mm, feels tenuous.

Like Christine being mean to me reminds me of being the smelly kid. I was like, huh? So, she goes through this whole thing and she's like, you know, that's why I have to stay positive because even like sleeping in the car, I would say, thank God that I at least have this car. So I've had to have that perspective, you know, and that's just how I am. And my therapist says, you've had to be that way to survive. And I love that you have to go to a therapist in LA for being positive because people

are like, what's wrong with you? Why are you always looking at the bright side of things? Something's fucking wrong with you. You never cry. You're not divorcing your husband. What the fuck?" She's like, and so I went to therapy for it and they told me you've had to be positive. You had no other choice. Jasmine's like, thank you for sharing that. You explained that right now and like that totally makes sense. And I think it was just hard to see like so many people being so vulnerable about certain things. And you, you had this whole story about being on Housing didn't even share it at that moment

It just would have been a great opportunity then and that's where my frustration really was So what is Jasmine vulnerable about what is Jasmine brought here? Nothing except a storyline with Danny which she didn't bring to the table So she's saying everybody else is being so vulnerable and she keeps pointing to Brittany But what have you brought except the Danny thing which you didn't bring to the table either. So I've just, I can't help but be annoyed with this. And he is like, okay, I mean, I see your perspective, but if you feel like I was hiding,

then it was more hurtful that you left the table to talk about it, like you could talk to me. And Brittany's like, well, you know, like I love seeing that, that part of you, like this poor person part of you, because you know, sleeping in your car, I mean, that's just what we do, like I love seeing that, that part of you, like this poor person part of you, because you know, sleeping in your car, I mean, that's just what we do where I come from. So like, I'll get it.

I'm poor too. Do I get points? Cause I grew up pretty poor too. My mama wears white out his lipstick. Okay. Meemaw melts her cheese for the beer cheese on a catalytic converter. So Janice like, I'm really grateful and happy.

Cause Brittany's face when she's talking about like growing up and sleeping in parking lots, Brittany's like, I mean, was it a bad neighborhood? That's like, so I grew up watching the Smurfs. I mean, we all do that, right? So Janet's like, I'm really grateful and happy to see that Nia is opening up and being honest and that they're working through things, but the behavior didn't stop. And my husband has never once hidden a cupboard,

chucking tequila, making people uncomfortable. So, God, making me uncomfortable. There it is. There it is, Janet. Oh, no, I've been, I was uncomfortable. I was in a closet with a man who drank tequila in front of me, but was hiding it somehow. So she says, she tells her, I think some of the reason that I had such a reaction also to like Danny being passed out was something kind of strange happened. Like when we got back to the house after wine tasting,

like I walked into the walk-in pantry to get like a snack. I was gonna make an easy Mac cup, you know, nothing, nothing too big. And when I walked in, Daniel came in behind me, is it okay if I call him Daniel? And shut the door and then like chugged out of a tequila bottle and he was like, mm-hmm, mm-hmm. And it just made me feel like a little uncomfortable

because I didn't want to be part of like, you know, if he wanted to do something and he didn't want everyone to see, I didn't want to be part of a secret, you know? And if you're ever having concerns about his drinking, like, you know, I don't want you to, you know, because of how everything happened in Santa Barbara, you know, I don't want you to ever feel know, because of how everything happened in Santa Barbara, you know, I don't want you to ever feel like you don't have friends that you could go to because,

you know, I was in a relationship for years with someone who had a drug and alcohol problem. And so if Danny ever needs to check into rehab, he can always crash in our house and I can talk to him about his issues, you know, nothing too big. Yeah, and I loved when Nia said, yeah, I feel like that's a really,

like Nia's demeanor changed. And she's like, yeah, I feel like that's a really big statement for you to make. And Kristen's like, yeah, I feel like that's a really, like Nia's demeanor changed. And she's like, yeah, I feel like that's a really big statement for you to make. And Kristen's like, yeah, I agree. And Nia's like, I mean, I know you're trying to pretend you're being nice here, okay, with your concerns, your blatant fucking concerns rolling. But that's kind of a big thing to say.

Like if you have a problem with Daniel's drinking, okay, like we're good now. And Jasmine's like, well, I mean, like she needs, cause like he's in the closet, like he was taking a shot in the closet. Like he was in closet taking a shot. And Janet goes, yeah, cause he was hiding it. He was doing it right in front of you, Janet. And he is like, well, but you just compared it

to someone who had drug and alcohol problems. And Jasmine goes, oh yeah, I miss that. I miss that. I didn't get that either. I didn't get that. Not that I've been doing this, haven't been doing the same thing this whole time, but yeah, yeah.

What, what, what, what? And Nia's like, "'Cause Daniel doesn't do drugs. And so comparing it to someone who has drug and alcohol problems, that's like a whole different thing, you know? And she's basically saying that Janet is totally off base and implying that, you know,

that Danny has a drug and alcohol problem. And she's like, "'This is the worst apology I've ever heard.'" I was like, well, you should listen to some of Jackson's apologies because they're a little bit worse. But I'll give you this one. But it was yeah, she's right that it's not an apology. And so now Jan is pissed. And she tells us yeah, because God forbid, I compare a very painful and difficult experience I went through to Nia's perfect fucking husband. Yeah, cause it's not you. Stop projecting your terrible fucking life onto everybody else's.

Damn it. It's time for a commercial. It's time for a Crappin's commercial. Every big moment starts with a big dream. But what happens when that big dream turns out to be a big flop?

And the Monica Lewinsky that my friends and family knew was usurped by false narratives,

callous jokes, and politics. I would define reclaiming as to take back what was yours. Something you possess is lost or stolen and ultimately you triumph in finding it again. So I think listeners can expect me to be chatting with folks both recognizable and unrecognizable names about the way that people have navigated roads to triumph. My hope is that people will finish an episode of Reclaiming and feel like they filled their tank up. They connected with the people that I'm talking to

and leave with maybe some nuggets that help them feel a little more hopeful. Follow Reclaiming with Monica Lewinsky on the Wondery app or wherever you get your podcasts. You can listen to Reclaiming early and ad-free right now by joining Wondery Plus in the Wondery app or on Apple podcasts Question this is serious question. How would you I mean, it's not a serious moment. That's a serious question though. How would you If you had a concern if you had a concern

And this is not a defensive Jan of I'm. If you're in a situation where you were concerned that a friend's partner may have a drinking problem, how do you think you would bring it up? In a way that does not make it seem like, oh, your husband's a total alcoholic. If you need to talk about it, I'm here for you. I would say, hey, you know, there've been problems with your husband.

Like he got wasted on that Halloween night. Now he's, you know, wasted here. Do you think that there's, hey, you know, there've been problems with your husband. Like he got wasted on the Halloween night. Now he's, you know, wasted here. Do you think that there's like, have you, are you okay? Like, do you think there's some kind of a problem? I mean, if it was my friend, but if it was some shithead like Janet, who's just waiting for cameras and trying to make tiny little things like the tequila in the closet and I'm so uncomfortable and I'm so uncomfortable, and I know a drug addict, and he just seems like a drug addict.

Like blatantly stirring the pot on national TV to embarrass me, I would be like, fuck you. There's different ways to do it. I mean, I'm not saying people can't talk to their friends about it if there's something going on. It's just obvious that Shannon's trying to paint this picture of Danny as this drug addict, alcoholic thing on TV behind her back

and is now springing it on her. And I'm glad that Nia's wise to Janet's manipulations. I really appreciate that you accidentally called Janet Shannon in there for one instance. Well, I would like to imply something. I think that for me, I think I would just like separate the, that question about Danny from this dinner. Cause I think this dinner is more about like,

hey, we want to make good with you Nia. And then maybe go on like a private coffee with Nia and say, and say, hey, I want to check in about Danny because I felt bad. Like that, like how do you, how are you feeling about his drinking? Cause it did kind of suck that like you had to like bear the brunt of this whole situation is everything okay. Just want to do a check-in.

And then if they said everything is fine, it's like, then that's all you have to go in. But I don't know if I would say, well, cause I knew someone who had like a severe issue with drinking and I'm seeing it in Danny. And I think that if you need to talk about it, I'm here to talk about it. But I think I'm maybe saying- Yeah, cause Janet's doing it in front of everybody, first of all, and on TV.

And she's saying, you know, it's, I went through the same thing as you, because I also had a boyfriend with a drug and alcohol problem. You know, she's wording it in a way that she's, she's saying that Danny has a drug and alcohol problem. She's not trying to say, does he have a problem? She's saying, your a way that she's saying that Danny has a drug and alcohol problem. She's not trying to say, does he have a problem?

She's saying, your husband has a problem because my husband had a problem, you know? Which is just shitty. She knows what she's fucking doing and she's doing it with that concerned little face and just nodding. And so Nia's like, okay. And Janet says, yeah,

and that was just an uncomfortable moment. I'm gonna say uncomfortable again because I was basically assaulted by your husband in a closet. So I just wanted to tell you that. And he is like, okay, well that makes sense, but she's pissed. And Janet's just in that concern, nodding at her. And she goes, yeah, but you know, everyone was drinking.

So, including you and your double-fisting fucking husband. Did Janet ever? Your jack-supporting, your fucking jack-supporting drunk of a husband, by the way, who's out there saying Jackson, a mate, Jackson is an amazing dad, et cetera, et cetera. So I wonder was did, why did Janet, I will give people in general credit for if they have an X in their life and they've had experience with this,

this sort of situation that they could be brought back to that place and that's why they merely jumped to that conclusion. But did we ever see Janet have this conversation with Brittany ahead of Jax going into rehab? No, everybody ignored everything that Brittany wanted her to. Don't you remember last season was all about Jax calling Brittany an alcoholic.

So Jax was making it that Brittany was this huge alcoholic and they had to have a discussion about Brittany's drinking. And Brittany was like, how dare you embarrass me by bringing up my drinking in front of everybody. And now this year she's like, why aren't we bringing up Danny's drinking in front of everybody?

Fucking hypocrite, you know? So no, nobody gave a shit until Brittany wanted to make it a storyline. But now they're all wanting, I think they don't like Nia. It's like a kind of a thing we see on these shows all the time. Nia's getting this. They look at it as Nia's getting this perfect at it. Like everybody likes Nia. There's nobody who doesn't like Nia.

I wouldn't say like she's the most popular person on the show, but I think everyone can pretty much agree that Nia is a pretty sweet person. I know I will. I will forever eat my words fucking crazy because Janet is hated by the country and Brittany is probably about half and half. She's got supporters, but she's also got people calling her trash all the time. Michelle's got people calling her trash all the time. And I think they're just like, fuck this girl. Meanwhile, this girl's husband's getting drunk and no one's saying anything about her. Like she gets to be this perfect thing. But the problem is it's not about the person that they're with being an asshole and that's why they're being villainized.

And I think that's what the people I just mentioned on the show are trying to draw comparisons to. It's like Nia gets away Scott free cause Nia's nice. Danny's not getting away Scott free. Danny's being attacked all over for the shit he did. And rightly so, but Nia is not cause she's nice. Whereas I think Brittany's thinking I'm being attacked because of Jax.

And Michelle's thinking I'm being attacked because of Jesse. And Janet's like, I'm being attacked because of Jax. And Michelle's thinking, I'm being attacked because of Jesse. And Janet's like, I'm being attacked because of, I don't know who Janet's blaming, but. They're jealous. No, I think that it, I think it's not even that they're like, oh Janet's not even that like Nia's more popular.

And by the way, the first episode ever of The Valley, I was like, look at Nia, she's evil. I guarantee everyone watched. She's gonna be the biggest bitch of all. And it has yet to happen. But, I never knew that could come through at the end. It still could happen.

Bitch flowers could be a slow burn. It could be like a corpse flower, just takes a hundred years for it to bloom. But, but I do think that, I think that the common thing here and then what we touched on earlier is that Nia has been able to not get into the mess,

not get the crap all over her. And I think they are, they see that as like not being fair. And they're like, we have to deal with bullshit from the audience. We have to deal with bullshit from each other and we have to deal with scandal. And you get to just like come in. And then when it's too uncomfortable, you don't wanna talk about things, you are able to gracefully and maturely exit the situation. And we don't have the tools to do that.

So we are wanna put you in a situation where you cannot escape and get the crap on you. And Nia's like, no. So that's where that is. So Kristen's like, oh, seriously? The one thing moving forward is if we can all do this, okay, if there's a problem, go to the person straight up and ask.

I think we figured it out, which I think is funny because how many times on reality shows do we have these summits where it always concludes, like going forward, if you hear anything about me or I hear anything about you or we have issues with each other, let's talk about it face to face. We literally just start with Portia and Shamia. It's my favorite resolution that has yet

to ever, ever, ever be followed. Which by the way, Mia leaves and they immediately start talking about what an alcoholic Danny is. So yeah, let's talk about it. Let's talk about it to each other. And Brittany's like, y'all let's make a promise. Let's talk about it to each other. And Brittany's like, y'all, let's make a promise. Let's be wise. Everybody grabbed my finger. I'm that's when you promise and you eat a big hot dog. So, no, and he was like, well, in this moment, I did not feel like Janet's being a friend. And I just feel like what Daniel and I have experienced and worked through is now kind

of being thrown back at me and being weaponized, which is right. So Brittany, yeah, Brittany's like, I feel like that was really positive with my, and Jasmine's like, yeah, I appreciate that we had this conversation with her. I still feel though, I'm not gonna lie. It's just a little bit like when someone cries in front of me, I'm just like, fuck it, fuck it, no, no,

I'm not gonna believe it, I'm not gonna believe it. So immediate pivot. Yeah, and Kristen's like, what?, fuck it. No, no, I'm not gonna believe it. I'm not gonna believe it. So, immediate pivot. Yeah, and Kristen's like, what? Why do you still feel that? And she's like, well, I mean, like, you know, the thought. Like, it was more about like her relationship with Danny. And like, that's what I kept saying over and over. I was like, let me be clear, let me be clear,

let me be clear. Remember? Remember I said that? And Kristen's like, she literally just poured her heart out. So like, she explained it. So like, she explained why she does it. And Jasmine's like, she literally just poured her heart out. So like she explained it. So like she explained why she does it. And Justin was like, no, like, look, I'm not saying he has a drinking problem. Okay, I'm not saying, yes you are.

Just fucking say it. And Justin was like, but you know, like they're signs. You know, they're signs that he has a drinking problem. Like, are you kidding me? They're signs guys. There's just signs. So like, you know what an alcoholic is doing. What?

Yeah, I'm not saying he's an alcoholic, but I know what an alcoholic is doing. So when Janet said that I'm like, ding, ding, ding, ding, like, you know what an alcoholic is doing? What, what? Yeah, I'm not saying he's an alcoholic, but I know what an alcoholic is doing. So when Janet said that, I'm like, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, Danny's an alcoholic, but I'm absolutely not saying he's an alcoholic, okay? Talk about not being able to just fucking have the balls to say it.

Just say it then. So Janet's like, yeah, he's just so sneaky. I was so uncomfortable. And she's like, yeah, you know, and like she might understand it to be something more, but like, yeah, he's just so sneaky. I was so uncomfortable. And she's like, yeah, you know, and like she might understand it to be something more, but like, you know, that's only why she attacked you like that. That's what, she didn't attack anybody.

What are you fucking talking about? You guys are just making shit up now. Yeah. Seriously, I just think it's really dangerous thing to call someone an alcoholic. I mean, sure, Jill has her problems, but I think generally speaking, like, dog alcoholism is different.

And so, Jasmine, I don't even know what I'm saying. I'm like, do you make Jill an alcoholic? I'm just imagining Jill as this dog being like, oh yeah, you wanna fuck with me, Luke? So Jasmine's like, she didn't call him an alcoholic. She didn't call him an alcoholic, you know? And neither did I. Yes, you did. Yes, you fucking did. And Janet's like an alcoholic, you know, and neither did I. Yes, you did.

Yes, you fucking did. And Janet's like, no, I'm not calling you an alcoholic. Yes, you did. Yes, you guys are. You guys are so, you guys, how stupid do you think people are? And she's like, well, you know, she said it triggered her, but like, I'm sorry, if you show up in no costume

at Jack's Bar on Halloween with fucking, with fucking like, like, you start grabbing people's asses and telling me to call you daddy, you got a problem. And he got kicked out twice. So did Zach and you're still besties with Zach. Wait, why does Danny not being in a costume, huh?

Why is Danny not being in a costume put on that list? Like you show up with no costume on at a Halloween party. Like that's up there with the alcoholism. And I feel like I have to say this every time I'm going against whatever Jasmine's saying because it's going against, just because I think Jasmine is kind of full of shit along with Janet and to a lesser degree, but it's also getting on my nerves. I feel like I have to say, I'm not standing up for what Danny did on Halloween. She has every right to go after him.

But again, they had another sit down with Nia where they're supposed to talk things through in her face and they didn't, like, why weren't they, why wasn't that the discussion? You know? So she's like, well, did she bring it up? Maybe she did bring it up in this dinner and I skipped it. She brought it, no, she brought it up,

but like, not like this. She was like, cause basically, what she's basically saying here, she's like, I'm not calling him an alcoholic, but I'm calling him an alcoholic cause he clearly has a problem with drinking. And I think, by the way, I think you're, I think you're allowed to say like someone needs to handle their alcohol better. It does not, you, you can,

it doesn't have to be just like alcoholic or not alcoholic. Like, you know, you can tell people, Hey, you're at a certain age, it's time to start being smarter with your drinking. I think that's a valid thing to say to someone. But like, she doesn't say that to Nia. She doesn't say it at all. Right. So she's like, well, I'm not letting this damn thing go

because it's still like, it's still really bothering me and I'm gonna sit him down and talk to him about it. Which again, you have every right to do that. It's the talking behind, it's the, it's which again, you have every right to do that. It's the talking behind it. It's everything else that you're doing that's not great. So basically, Nia comes home, Danny's just doing like, hey, 303, give you a baby from move to Santa C. Okay, 303 in Santa C. And so she tells him what's going on.

And she's like, you know, and then Janet brings up that she had an ex that has a drug and alcohol problem. And like, she's like, I can be here for you. And Danny laughs and put his hand, he's like, what the hell are these people doing? Like they're taking this too far. So he laughs and she's like, Danny, don't laugh, Danny. I don't like that.

I don't like that you're laughing. He's like, oh my God. He's like, ha ha ha ha. Danny, I can see you're, you're pretending like those are sighs. That's still just a very slow laugh extended over 10 seconds. Ha. Yes. Okay.

Sorry about that. I'm not laughing. I'm not laughing. Sorry. Not laughing at all. Sorry. Yeah. So Danny. I'm sorry. It was a sigh. I had something in at all. Sorry. So Danny. Was that a laugh? I'm sorry. It was a sigh.

I had something in my throat. Sorry. Danny says, well Janet again, trying to stir something up, making assumptions that aren't true, but throwing them out there. She will once again. I'm like, she is, but also Danny,

you're the one to talk, because last time I checked, you're the one who gossiped about Michelle being a big prostitute. Exactly. Okay. So you're not so innocent on the stirring shit up prostitute. Exactly. Okay, so you're not so innocent on the stirring shit up front either.

Yes, and that's the thing. It's like, no matter what's happening with the other group, it doesn't absolve Danny of also being a little shit, you know, in his own right. So Janet's like, so, oh, so then we go to Janet and Jason's house, Janet, Jason and their low ass hoods house and Jason's like, so how did it end low ass hoods house. And Jason's like, so how did it end? Are you guys good? And she's like, well, I mean, you know, here's

where I'm at with Nia, you can't continue to protect this person who's doing something wrong, especially when it's affecting like Jasmine and Melissa's relationship. Do you know what Jasmine and Melissa are currently going through because of this. And Jason's like, yeah, I mean, at this point, you gotta sort of know your limits. It's like, well, it's the hiding too. Kristen kept saying, oh, we're not gonna act like Danny has a drinking problem. Well, I'm not saying Danny needs to be where Jax is,

but it might be worth questioning his relationship with alcohol. Oh no, this is exactly what I was saying, isn't it? And I'm janiting it up over here, but she's saying it might be worth for Danny to question his relationship with alcohol. And if it's hiding, if you're doing these little things, it's not great.

It's not hiding, you did it right in front of you. I'm gonna keep saying it every time she says that because Janet keeps saying the same thing over and over. She was like a fucking hacky politician who just keeps saying the same thing over and over until it memes, you know? So then back to Nia, she's like, you know, and she also said that when you had the tequila,

that it was in the pantry in the bedroom area and that you went in there with tequila and like took a shot of it, which of course you told me, but that you closed the door like you were trying to hide it. So she was like, well, I don't want to be on a secret. And she's like, honey, don't laugh. He's like, am I laughing? I didn't, I just, cause it just gets worse and worse.

He's like, what is this woman trying to do to me? And he's like, okay, okay. Take it seriously, honey. He's like, okay, well look, that's where the bottles were behind the door, you know? She's like, okay, well I did not know that. Yeah, it's in that back door, yeah. And she's like, well, I didn't know that. I didn't know in that back door, yeah. And she's like, well, I didn't know that.

He's like, so I literally picked it up and I took a shot. And then I was going back there. I had to shut the door, you know? So Janet's so fucking ridiculous, I can't. This is when I was just like, oh, fuck off, Janet, when he said that the alcohol was behind the door, so I'm gonna close it. So Nia's like, well, yeah, I mean, you told me

you took a shot, but you didn't say you closed the door. And so, yeah, he's like, well, that's why I did it. So then Nia's like, okay, well, then I'm not bothered by it. And he's like, yeah, this whole thing's crazy. And so he's laughs again. And she's like, stop laughing. It's a nervous laugh and I don't like it. You did that thing, that's a nervous laugh and I don't like it. You did that thing.

That's a laugh. No, no, I'm in character as a zombie who just went to the improv, because zombies do enjoy standup too. And I'm just in character. That's all. It's not a me laugh. It's a, I'm working right now.

I'm basically, this is for our family. This laugh is for our family right now. So now Jason is telling Janet, we'll all have a talk with Danny because he needs to understand how his behavior is hurting all of us. Okay, Jason, basic ass Jason. So that's pretty much it. You know, Danny's like, this is the end of the roast of Danny Buco. That is not okay. Roasting Danny Buco.

That will stop today. that will stop today. It will stop today. It is nice though to see Danny get his feet put to the fire a little bit though, you know, cause he has kind of been able to skate by and he sort of does, he does messy things and he just sort of smiles and is really cute and everything. But like, you know, I think it is,

I kind of feel like it sucks that Nia had to bear the brunt of Danny's actions. And that is as much the problem with the people who were doing the brunt, sending the brunt towards her, but also like, you know, how about you stay awake for dinner. Well I have no problem with Danny

having his feet to the fire. I think that's great. Hold his feet to the fire. He's done's great. Hold his feet to the fire. He's done shit you guys can call him out on. It's just coming for Nia as well. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. Well, what a fun episode. The Valley is full of all sorts of feels.
