[Jackie] Previously on Basketball Wives...
Girl, you better get the [bleep] out of my face!
Did she put her [bleep] hands on me?
I can't be around her. I just can't.
If she's there, I can't go.
Evelyn's no longer engaged.
Oh!
[Vanessa] Yes, she took her ring off.
Vanessa, you always in somebody business.
Baby, relax.
You a drunk bitch and you outta mother[bleep] pocket, you are!
Now, where are you and Brooke at?
We're, we're nothing.
I wanna take you guys to Arizona.
We need to heal.
So how did you feel about the energy with Jac'Eil?
Like I said, if you wanna be Neutral Nancy, that's cool.
I'm not walking on eggshells for anyone, [bleep] you.

-Hi, [indistinct]! -What are you doing?
I'm [indistinct]. My man, my man, my man.
Are you? Oh, that's so adorable!
So I'm packing and I wanna know...
are you coming to Arizona or no?
Stop it, Jenn. [laughs]
It was awesome.
The cooking class was a lot of fun.
There was no drama.
Yeah.
Taking the ladies to Arizona,
and this girls' trip is really something
that I have in my heart.
And I'm hoping Jenn comes because
I want some healing to be done. So it means a lot to me.
[Jennifer] Clayanna, [indistinct]--
She irks on my [bleep] nerves, to be honest with you.
Oh!
And I feel like that's why I wanna get us together.
I wanna do the shaman.
I want us to pray together, just let our hair down.
I think we're gonna fun.
It's about healing and peace there.
I'm not saying no. I'm not saying yes.
Let me take a beat.
Your ticket will be waiting.
I hope to see you on that flight,
drink us some champagne on this champagne campaign
we finna be on. Bye!
[music]
This is cute.
-Hi, how are you? -Hi, how are you?
-Hi! -You look beautiful!
Hi, gorgeous. You look amazing.
-Oh? Thanks. -Absolutely.
Looking for some outfit ideas for Arizona
and our sister trip.
[both laughing]
Clayanna, Vanessa, and I all decided
to go shopping together for this trip to Arizona.
Not excited 'cause the energy in the cooking class was just fake.
I plan to keep my distance and stay to myself during this trip.
But we might as well look for some outfits
so we can at least be cute amongst the chaos.
Hey, ladies!
-Hello! -Hey, how are you?
Good. How are you?
How's it going?
How are you guys doing?
-With it. -You know, better.
[Vanessa] 'Cause I feel like when
you came in the cooking class, you were kinda...
like, in the mood.
Um, well, I wouldn't necessarily call it a mood.
I mean, at the end of the day, I got a text from Clayanna
about people being shady.
Wait, what did they say about Brittany?
Don't do that, please.
Jackie just said, "She's late.
How many people wanna move on?"
And I say, "She's here," 'cause I know she's here.
And that's cool. This is where I'm getting at,
is like, I'm walking in
and it's already Clayanna and I on one side
and the rest of you guys over there.
It just kind of felt like there wasn't a lot of conversation.
And you really didn't talk either.
You asked me one time, "You good?"
I know I said, "Hey girl, you good?"
-Hi. -How's it going?
So, um, I'm just gonna skip the strainer part
and I'm just gonna go straight to the towel.
-[Vanessa] And then... -That's it, though.
And then I did check-- I text you after the class.
The fact that you text her after the class
is the biggest issue.
Don't be one person on the outside
and then be a different person on the inside.
I was over there in the corner. I mean, it was a cooking class,
so I didn't have a chance to really talk with anyone.
Vanessa definitely began showing her true colors.
You should've come over to her. "Oh, we were far."
You got legs, don't you? I'm not messin' with that.
I don't know what I could've done differently.
I feel like you definitely could've made it a point
to engage us more.
I apologize if y'all felt like I was being distant.
I don't really know where this energy is coming from.
They're mad at me because
I wasn't circulating around the room.
It's really Clayanna trying to start some [bleep].
She was doing the same thing with Jac'Eil.
You addressed Brooke when she said something
about her body being [indistinct].
I said I didn't hear that part, 'cause I didn't.
But that is what happened.
Now she's trying to divide and conquer Brittany and I.
Jennifer was missing from the, the cooking class.
Yeah, who cares? 'Cause why not show up?
Maybe she'll grace us with her fake-ass presence.
So I was investigating, you know, Jennifer, her puppy.
I was trying to get her puppy money back
'cause I'm the bill collector.
And I happened to come upon some other information.
What's the information?
So he, at the dinner, which both of y'all weren't there,
he told everyone that he had two kids.
You have kids, right? You have two kids, she says.
-Yes. -[Vanessa] Cool.
Yes, I have a almost two-year-old
and a almost one-year-old.
But now I came upon this book he wrote
where there's a whole 'nother, like, 13-year-old.
-So wait, what? -He has another kid?
Vanessa loves being messy,
so not surprised that she is meddling
in someone else's affairs.
That's just kind of who she is.
[Vanessa] I want to tell Jennifer,
but I want Jackie there,
you know, 'cause I don't know her as well Jackie.
-Actin' so, like, "Oh!" -I know!
That's what I'm staying. Stop!
What's Jackie gonna do?
[Vanessa] I think it will help because
in the basketball world, right? There's a pecking order,
or a hierarchy, where the wives--
it's based off who you're married to,
how long you've been married,
and there's a certain level of respect there.
No it's not.
You could be married to somebody,
but your experience won't necessarily be my experience
because you could be the wife,
but you could be the wife of a Z-list player.
Exactly, and that has everything to do with the pecking order.
I think the pecking order is bull[bleep].
I think it's pointless.
You're trying to spin this back around on you, girl.
It's not talking about you.
[Clayanna] Because I get a lot of respect
because I was a girlfriend to somebody
that was a championship player.
My daughter's father's been in four or five championships.
We never got married, but he is somebody
that is very distinguished,
somebody that's very decorated.
Then that's great because when
you're really in the basketball world,
what's understood don't need to be explained.
Right!
I don't know why Clayannie feels the need to tell me
about all her baby daddy's accolades,
because it really has nothing to do with you, honey.
I'm not feeling it.
I just feel like a lot of these ideologies are [bleep] childish
and people need to go touch some grass.
Thank you.

Wait, so where's Jennifer?
Where is Clayanna?
And where's Vanessa?
Oh!
We're taking off on Jackie's trip,
and I honestly, I have no idea how this is gonna go,
because I noticed at departures that Brittany was sitting alone.
I didn't wanna call Brittany out in front of everyone,
but I do wanna have a one-on-one with her
just to kind of see where her head is at.
[music]
Whoo!
We made it to Arizona, baby!
Very good.
We're good?
We are good.
Everybody going on different busses?
Yeah, we can't all fit with our...
-Luggages. -With our luggage,
and them guys is on a twin one.
[Brooke] You think they rode in another one
'cause Brittany didn't wanna ride with me?
You know what? I wasn't gonna say that.
So, how are you feeling? Honestly.
-Honestly? -Yeah.
I just feel really awkward. I feel out of place.
I don't know how this is gonna flow.
I have to say, it made me...
generally a little sad because
from what I was hearing,
Clayanna was kind of the start of the energy that day.
Now the energy's thick.
I get why you're like, hey, I don't wanna be over there.
And it's just unfortunate.
[Jackie] You think Clayanna's getting in her head,
making her feel a certain type of way?
-That's probably what happened. -[Jac'Eil] Come on, man.
It really does feel like Clayanna has [indistinct]
'cause even with me and Brittany getting into it,
all of that [bleep] happened because of Clayanna.
Now, I would never put blame on Clayanna
because I'm my own person.
But how can we move forward if in your world,
I body shamed you first?
Even Clayanna was like--she's like,
"And she said that you're built like a boy."
I didn't hear that.
You know, the situation with you and Brooke or whatever?
So this is--it's such a mind [bleep]
even for me, listening to it,
because she's like, "I would never attack somebody's body
and, and body shame them."
She was like, "She talked about my body being botched
and then I said what I said."
You're drunk and you're sloppy.
Sloppy!?
Yeah, you're drunk and you're sloppy.
Might wanna talk to your surgeon, then.
Go ahead, bitch!
You got flappy [bleep] titties. You need a [bleep] surgeon!
I feel like you guys need to talk.
Literally I feel like, oh my god,
like, did I say something first?
I feel as if there's a big detail that I'm missing here,
and...maybe I had a little too much to drink that day.
All I know is this mess needs to be cleaned up
and I gotta get to the bottom of it.
[Evelyn] I think it would be good
if you guys had a conversation,
and then nip it in the bud and then move forward.
Right, right.
[Jackie] Coming up on Basketball Wives...
I just got a text from Clayanna that she just landed.
Oh, okay, okay, so Clayanna's here.
Yay!
Whoo!
[music]
Arizona!
[Jac'Eil] Arizona!
-Bitch, I got a ring! -[Clayanna] Oh, god!
I got a whole mother[bleep] ring.
A $27 ring!
♪ Sweet like honey ♪
Whoo!
-Hey, girl! -Hi, mama!
-You made it! -I made it, yes, yes!
So I'm super excited. I got to Arizona early.
I got my kid situated.
You know, I'm born and raised. This is my hometown.
And I'm ready to welcome all the ladies.
-Welcome, welcome! -Thank you, thank you.
-[indistinct] -Good to see you, yes.
-Hi! -Hello.
Evelyn!
[cheering, laughter]
Hi!
[Jackie] Come on! Come on, Brittany!
Listen, I didn't pick no rooms. The hotel picked.
I got everyone a gift bag
and everything is so your room is fresh
and you're staying fresh. It's really hot out here.
Just be careful when you go outside.
There's coyotes and things.
-Coyotes? -[Vanessa] Yes.
Welcome to Arizona.
I wanted to bring you guys out here
for us to have an amazing time of healing.
Jennifer hopefully will come.
I pretty much damn near begged her
'cause I really wanted her here.
But I don't think she's feeling Clayanna,
so hopefully she'll come.
I just got a text from Clayanna that she just landed, actually.
Oh, okay, okay. So Clayanna's here, yay!
Whoo!
[Evelyn] In all the years I know Jackie,
you never know what Jackie you're gonna get.
Sometimes you're gonna get crazy, whacky Jackie.
And then sometimes you're gonna get this zen Jackie,
which I actually love and appreciate more.
I do like the whacky Jackie too sometimes.
[Jac'Eil] Y'all wanna do a toast?
[Jackie] Yeah. A great time.
-A great time. -Cheers!

I'm trying to think if I can just...
[indistinct]
[Clayanna] Did you want me to pour you some champagne?
Or are you good?
Um, I'm okay. Thank you, though.
After speaking with Evelyn,
I just felt like there was some missing pieces
with what happened between me and Brooke.
I wanted to speak with Jac'Eil and Clayanna
and get to the bottom of everything.
Hello!
Y'all got a feast here. Is this for me?
-It is. -[laughs]
-How's it goin'? -Good.
What's up?
I was in a very foul mood earlier,
but I just kind of wanted to come clean about, like,
my feelings about you and this stuff with Brooke.
The reality is I have a feeling
that I was the one to start the body shaming first.
Hearing the saggy boobs comment,
it was very upsetting, like, and it just--
I just remembered the saggy boobs part,
and I didn't think about what took place right before that.
I have to take accountability for my behavior.
And, um, I was lit.
And I was quick to try to pick her apart physically because
that is how I, in the past, have critiqued myself.
And especially since having a baby and all that,
you know? It's like, ugh!
No, girl, you're all right.
I mean, it's just I have really struggled with...
feeling comfortable in my body since my baby.
So it's easy to pick other people apart.
In my heart, I, I would like to have a conversation with Brooke.
I gotta make this right.
[music]
Because I actually think
it's an important conversation to have
about, like, women and their bodies.
[Jac'Eil] This is a big step for Brittany.
I'm proud that she's taking responsibility
for the incident with Brooke,
and because it was kind of awkward at the cooking class.
And I'm just happy Brittany's owning up to her [bleep]
'cause I'm tired of being in the middle of everybody bull[bleep].
I have been talking [bleep]. I've been mad at you.
I don't wanna talk to you. I'm like, you're not my friend.
Like, you don't care about me. You didn't go to bat for me.
Like, that's how I've been feeling.
I feel like as a friend, you should've came to me
and been like, hey, look, I feel some time of way.
Even right then, 'cause I'm the type of friend,
I wanna be checked.
And if I'm wrong, I'ma say I'm wrong.
And [indistinct] the type of person to apologize.
-I already told you that. -Yeah.
I understand Jac'Eil's point of view of coming to her first.
And for me, I have to go through my own process
and understand what I'm feeling
before I can articulate what it is I'm feeling.
I'm hoping that we can move forward
in a more positive direction.
Clayanna, so now you--
the story make sense to you now?
Definitely not what I heard. I heard what I heard.
-[Jac'Eil] What you mean? -I sat there and I said--
you said, "I didn't remember that remark."
You sat there, you said I don't even--
What remark, though?
I'm going to tell you if you gonna listen.
When she said the remark about the breasts,
you was like, "I remember that remark."
And I said, "Well, she also said
that she had a body like a little boy."
You replied to me, you said, "I don't remember that remark."
It's dead, it's dead, it's over.
Like, whatever you feel like you heard, you heard,
like, I'm tired of it.
You be trying to nitpick with everybody and everything.
First of all, why are you yelling in my face?
Regardless of what was said,
I still feel like you were straddling the fence.
And I don't feel like you have the same energy with Brittany
that you had with Brooke and some of the other girls.
I feel like you're being fake.
You want me and Brittany to be [indistinct] so bad.
Like I said--
[shouting, arguing]
You don't know what the [bleep] I said.
[shouting, arguing]
Everybody [indistinct] about their life!
Okay, don't do me no favors.
[indistinct]
I'm trying to figure out why Clayanna
is more upset than I am
because this doesn't even have anything to do with her.
[shouting, arguing]
Bitch, I got a ring.
[Clayanna] Oh, god!
I got a whole mother[bleep] ring!
A $27 ring!
No bitch, some thousands, baby. You ain't get one.
-You ain't got no [bleep] ring. -I get what you get
-in one month! -Stop talkin' about her!
Clayanna is still giving hood.
She go from zero to 100 in every situation.
Talkin' about I got a $27 ring.
Baby, first of all, I got three. You did never got one.
Baby, baby, I get in two months what your girlfriend's team--
I got money! Stop talkin' about her!
I got my own mother[bleep] money!
-[Brittany] Clayanna-- -[Clayanna] She fake as--
What are you talking about?
'Cause it's bull[bleep].
Them bitches ain't gonna play in my face.
-That's why they not gonna do. -Okay.
[music]
[Brittany] [bleep] god, what a [bleep] [bleep] show.
[Jackie] Coming up on Basketball Wives...
Jac'Eil says you wanted to talk to me.
I sure did.
When we were at the skating rink,
at some point you were like,
"Bitches are already on thin ice."
It had nothing to do with you.
[music]
Girl, I was over there knocked out.
I had used that damn spray Vanessa put in the gift bag.
Lavender calming spray. This [bleep] works!
Girl, I don't want none of that bull[bleep].
[Brooke] Oh, honey, speaking about Vanessa,
she said--told the ladies that you're not engaged anymore.
Girl, are you serious?
Like, she's just running her [bleep] mouth.
Let me tell you something.
She is not to be [bleep] trusted.
[music]
I'm checking in for Clayanna.
Whoo, it is so hot out here! Like, I'm from Mississippi,
but damn, this a different type of weather.
All these damn bugs, ooh!
[music]
Oh my god, I am in the goddamn desert, sauna, jungle...
-Girl-- -Zoo.
[Evelyn] We in the [indistinct] zoo, okay?
We're [bleep]...
[Jennifer] I ain't sign up for this!
Me neither! But you know what?
I'm glad--I'm glad we ain't beefin'.
I'm glad we in a good place!
Thanks, [indistinct].
I decided to come to Arizona because
I know it's Brooke's birthday party
and I definitely did not wanna miss that.
So far, Evelyn's the only person that knows I'm here,
and the girls don't know I'm coming, so...
it's gonna be a surprise.
What the hell is this?
I don't know.
No, for real, like--
Wait, is this, like, a game?
Oh wait, I think I know how to do it.
[Jennifer] That [bleep] look like a weapon.
We need to keep this [bleep] away from [bleep]...
Clayanna crazy ass.
I'm happy that Jennifer came to Arizona.
You know, my relationship with Jennifer
hasn't always been great,
but Jennifer and I,
we were best friends.
We went through a lot together.
So did you guys figure out what you're gonna do about it?
Separate.
Awww! It's pretty!
I feel silly.
You know, I had text you when your mom had passed away.
Sorry, this one's hard for me.
I know, it's--can-- it's hard for me too.
[Evelyn] I know what she meant to you.
So moving forward with my relationship with Jennifer,
it just makes me feel better because I have
a soft spot in my heart for Jennifer.
Who plays this type of [bleep]?
Oh.
It's not moving, bitch.
Girl. Wait, let me try.
[music]
[Jennifer] All right, Tiger Woods for the win.
At least get it through the metal.
[both cheering]
[laughing] Okay!
All right, sis!
I can't play in this goddamn heat.
Me neither. I feel like I'm melting.
[bleep].
Well, this was positive.
Right?

-Oh my god. -How are you?
I'm good. It's hot as hell.
Oh my god, it's hell week. Is this mine?
-Yeah, it's yours. -Is this water? Thank you.
Girl, so how was the flight?
You know what? I'm not gonna lie.
It was really good.
I wish you would've been on there.
You could be my copilot.
I said, "Vanessa got away without flying with these girls
so she can have a break!" It was, huh?
-Yeah. -[Jackie] I know!
[both laughing]
So, um, what are you gonna do about this Jenn situation, girl?
That ain't the question.
The question is, what are you gonna do about Jennifer?
Because now you have this valuable information.
I have a whole file.
Girl, I don't know if she knows any of this information,
but he did 10 years in prison.
No he didn't, no he didn't, stop.
I just wanna make sure that he's being honest with her.
So what do you plan on saying to her when you see her?
[Vanessa] Um, I don't really know.
Whatever comes to mind.
If she shows up...
I'll have a--I need to pull her to the side
and have this conversation with her.
I've known Jenn for quite a long time,
and I don't think that right now is the time
for Vanessa to deliver this foul,
especially while Jenn has an ongoing beef with Clayanna.
I'm hoping Jenn hurries up and calls,
answers her phone, something. If she doesn't by tonight,
she's more than likely not coming.
And it's disappointing, but I gotta understand
and respect her too at the same time.
She ain't feeling Clayanna.
This is why I wanted to talk to you.
So we went shopping, me, Clayanna and Brittany.
-Mm-hmm. -[Vanessa] And...
she came at me crazy, girl,
and said that we was actin' funny at the cooking class.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
How did I get involved?
Because she said that you wanted to start the cooking class
before Brittany got there.
Is the bitch on drugs? When did I say--
I said, "No, let's wait for her."
Let's take a vote.
Clayanna, wait for Brittany?
Of course!
Okay, wait?
Who?
Oh, Brooke said "Who?" you guys.
It's getting to the point for me
that she keeps having these little mini group-ups
and saying [bleep]--
But I'm not the one to be [bleep] with.
That's what I'm saying. Look, bitch, I was nice to you,
and I'll be your best [bleep] friend until I'm not.
-Don't [bleep] with me. -[Jackie] Right.
[Vanessa] And then she didn't understand
why I wanted you there when I tell Jennifer this tea.
And when I explained the pecking order to her,
she doesn't get it, Jackie.
She's never gonna get it. You know, it's not a big deal.
We're not saying anything to you
to make you feel less than, woman.
-It's about respect, that's it. -[Jackie] That's it.
The more that I think about how Clayannie had me
all the way twisted by trying to start some [bleep]
with me and Brittany at the clothing store
and not submitting to the pecking order,
the more irritated I get.
So I really don't know how I'ma act when I see this bitch.
You should've not invited Clayanna.
Now, had I known Miss Little Mother[bleep]
was running around, talking [bleep],
she might not have got invited or I would've said, listen,
if you got a problem, me and you
won't break bread first beforehand,
before I would've invited her. I didn't know.
I just hope tonight at this pool party for Brooke
we can put our differences aside
and we can just come together and have a good time.
This woman has been through hell and back.
And this is supposed to be a trip of peace,
relaxation, healing.
So, I don't know, girl.
Coming up on Basketball Wives...
I really appreciate you guys doing this for me.
In therapy, struggling with celebrations and holidays
since my daughter hasn't been here,
especially the first of them...
[Jackie] It's okay, Brookie.
[music]
[knocking on door]
-[Brooke] Hey. -[Brittany] Hello.
Jac'Eil said you wanted to talk to me?
I sure did.
And I wanted to start with...
what happened at the skating rink.
I was wrong.
I was out of pocket.
And I'm typically not someone who's a sloppy drunk.
But that day, I absolutely was.
And there's really no defending the behavior,
to be honest with you.
I appreciate that. I do.
I do, 'cause it's been very difficult for me,
and it took me to a place that I don't wanna be in.
When we were at the skating rink,
you and Jenn were sitting down.
And at some point, you were like,
"Bitches are already on thin ice."
Listen, let me tell you,
I just decided that bitches is on thin ice.
And I was kind of like...
"Who's on thin ice?"
It had nothing to do with you,
but everything to do with Vanessa.
I stand on what I stand on.
I believe in what I believe in.
And when I'm wrong, I have no problem admitting I'm wrong.
I can understand anyone's point of view, even if I don't agree,
and respect them, and not invalidate their feelings.
I've learned a lot about myself.
And I'm proud of myself.
And yes, there was a conversation I had with my mom
pertaining to my child's father
and some issues with the pickup.
Nerves were just struck with me.
I was out of line.
I was extremely disrespectful.
And I was at fault.
I appreciate you being an adult and a woman
and, you know, recognizing that you did open that.
I know it's not easy being a single parent.
So I would never wanna tear another mother down,
another woman down.
I'm just really not in a place that I want to just...
I, I've been through enough.
There's really nothing, like, to say
other than I was wrong.
I would never wanna add anything stressful to your life.
I just don't.
[Brooke] I appreciate that.
Brittany definitely came in here with her big girl panties on,
and I'm really surprised.
This is making me look at her through a different set of eyes.
Jackie is throwing me a birthday pool party tonight.
So I would like to invite you as a peace offering.
Oh, I would be honored to celebrate you.
Mmkay, go practice twerking in the mirror before you come!

So I'm like, I'm excited about that.
And then Miss Clayanna's on ten.
She's mad because, you know, me and Brittany reconciled
on what we got going on.
Started talkin' all kind of bull[bleep].
She's a mess.
I mean, I did invite her,
but I don't even know if she gonna come.
Hey, mama!
That's gorgeous!
[music]
Hi, Brookie! Hi, Evelyn! [laughs]
[music]
This is so cute!
Jackie, thank you.
[Jackie] You are welcome.
-This is so cute. -You are welcome.
Look at you guys being besties.
[laughter]
-Oh, there you go! -She gon' have me crying.
[music]
[cheering, laughter]
No, you did not!
Oh my gosh!
How could I miss your party, boo?
Thank you!
[Jennifer] Walking up to Brooke,
she is so surprised.
Like, everybody is happy.
And this is exactly the energy that I wanted to walk into.
First and foremost, Brittany and I
just had a whole conversation.
[Jackie] Oh, good!
-She took full accountability. -Go ahead, Brittany.
That's amazing.
I invited her to join us today.
[cheering]
That's healing. That's what it is.
[Brooke] It is.
We gon' have fun tonight, you guys,
and just let our hair down.
Now, I really appreciate you guys doing this for me.
Like, one thing that I've been dealing with in therapy
is struggling with celebrations and holidays
since my daughter hasn't been here,
especially the first of them.
I don't know, it's weird sometimes to laugh and smile
and to have a good time and to celebrate myself.
[Jackie] It's okay, Brookie. It's okay.
You are strong.
You are an inspiration to all of us.
And I know that she would want me to celebrate, you know?
So, it's like I try to always put my best foot forward.
-And you do. -You really do.
You always have positive energy.
You've been great these last couple of months with everybody.
And I told you what I always tell you.
When I'm around you, you act like a what?
[laughter]
[Jac'Eil] What you actin' like?
Everybody's momma.
[laughter]
Jackie, get us some margaritas!
I know!
This wine is killing us.
And some ice water.
[excited chatter]
Brittany! [indistinct]
[excited chatter]
I told her to come here ready to twerk.
[cheering]
I'm still very hopeful that as a unit,
maybe we can still bond and...
form some genuine friendships.
It's nice for the waters to be calm for once.
So I'm, I'm hoping we can all move forward...somewhat.

-Shots, shots. -Whoa!

Happy birthday!
Y'all ain't [bleep].
Jackie did an amazing job
putting my birthday pool party together.
I'm letting my hair down.
I'm leaving all my problems at home.
This is really the vibe of a girls' trip.
♪ Happy birthday to you ♪
[Jennifer] I see your ass.
Oh my god!
There you go, Brookie! There you go, Brookie!
[Brooke] Do the guys come with it?
♪ Happy birthday to you ♪
[cheering, laughter]
There you go, mama.
[cheering]
I feel like it took a lot for Brooke
to just finally let loose, have a good time.
It's her birthday.
I really want Brooke to enjoy her life, have fun,
even if it's just for a couple of hours.
[cheering, laughter]
[Brooke] I love this! Oh, okay, boo!
[Jackie laughs]
[Jackie] Coming up on Basketball Wives...
It wasn't my problem. That was between you and her.
-[indistinct] -I said--
-You did. -I said you should've kept
the same energy.
Don't point your finger--
I'ma do what I want to.
-Don't point your finger-- -Brooke! Get Brooke!
[music]
[ladies cheering, laughing]
I love it, I love it.
Clayanna walks in, and...
doesn't say hello.
Doesn't greet the birthday girl.
Just sits down.
Where are your manners? Who taught you?
Like, hello? Happy birthday?
You just once again appear.
Hey, Clayanna, it's my birthday!
You didn't even walk in and say happy birthday.
'Cause you were doing your thing!
Yeah, but you came to my party.
-Happy birthday. -[Brooke] Thank you!
-Happy birthday. -Thank you.
Thank you.
Happy birthday. You look beautiful.
Thank you.
Jackie, can I open my gift now?
[Jackie] Yes, you can open it.
I mean, I just--I hope-- It's just something simple.
Clayanna, can I talk to you for a second?
Come here, we can sit right here.
Listen.
I...
I think that I wanna break the ice with you.
I think that you--I want you to feel included, 'cause you are.
I invited you to come 'cause I wanted you to be here
with all of us.
What's wrong, and how can I help?
I'm good.
Like, I don't need validation from anybody.
[Jackie] Do you think someone reaching out to you
and saying, "Clayanna, what's going on?"
is, is saying that you need validation?
-Or is it just-- -No, it's just saying--
It's saying that the idea of...
inclusiveness or non-inclusiveness,
where I feel that, that validates my day to day,
I don't give a [bleep].
[Jackie] It feels like, to me,
there is a wall around you and you don't let people in.
-And when you do, you have to-- -No, not some fake [bleep],
because it's a lot of fake [bleep] in this space.
There's a lot of fake-ass bull[bleep].
It's a lot of fake-ass bitches.
It's a lot of fake-ass conversations.
They have one energy, one way, and you fake as [bleep].
Jackie coming over here to talk to me,
she's full of [bleep].
Time and time again, you guys have crossed each other.
And time and time again, the dynamics,
they have been proven to not be genuine.
[Jackie] I was told there was a comment made that--
Vanessa said she shared it with you--
a hierarchy that's with the league.
[Clayanna] Mm-hmm.
Did you say, oh, well, everybody's guys
that don't have what Andre has is, uh, Z-list or something?
No, I said--no, I said
the whole idea of the pecking list is bull[bleep].
Like, there's no hierarchy.
My, my stance is, I have been
married to my husband a long time.
We have a committed marriage. We respect each other.
We are highly respected in the league.
And that's what I mean by the levels of
there is a sense of hierarchy.
And I think what Vanessa's trying to say
is there's a certain level of respect
that comes along with longevity in the league.
I know what she was trying to say.
I'm just saying it's bull[bleep].
[Jackie] You have every right to feel your way
and she has every right to feel hers,
and I have every right to feel mine.
[indistinct] with you.
Are you coming?
Yeah, baby girl.
[Jackie] Okay, so we're having a discussion about the hierarchy.
And like I told her, I've been around the league a long time.
Yeah, so have I.
I've been respected around the league.
-She's been around the league-- -A long time.
She feels--so then you should feel a certain way.
You shared with this woman and you shared with other women
that he has all of these different accolades--
No, I didn't say that. Brittany said that.
Brittany shared those accolades.
Brittany shared that, yeah.
Oh, she didn't share these accolades?
-Yes. -At the clothing store?
Yeah, Brittany, Brittany said that.
Girl, you explained to me, like, three times about--
After she put it on the table.
--Andre and all this [bleep], girl.
I was a girlfriend to somebody that was a championship player.
My daughter's father's been in four or five championships.
We never got married, but he is somebody
that is very distinguished.
You said that you have all this access, girl,
the same access that we have.
Yes, a lot.
I know your ass not sittin' out here, talkin' [bleep], Vanessa.
You sit here and tried to air out [bleep] Brooke.
You tried to [bleep] air out [bleep] Brittany.
You're a lyin'-ass [bleep]!
At this point, it seems like Clayanna
is just trying to throw Vanessa under the bus
because she's already under it by herself.
[Clayanna] I'll pull up the [bleep] messages.
Air me out about what?
-[indistinct] -Do it!
Do it, do it!
Shut the [bleep] up before I barbecue your lips!
[music]
You sit you here and tried to air out [bleep] Brooke.
You tried to [bleep] air out [bleep] Brittany.
You shut the [bleep] up before I barbecue your lips, bitch!
[Clayanna] Do it, do it!
-[Vanessa] You fake, bitch! -You fake, bitch!
[shouting, arguing]
I'm gonna pull the [bleep] messages.
I'ma [bleep] you up.
I'm like, show me the receipts,
because Clayanna, you are a known liar
and the only way I'm gonna believe you at this point
is if I see it with my own eyes.
Pull the message, [bleep] lying-ass [bleep].
You're full of [bleep], bitch!
[Clayanna] We're gonna see--
Okay, you're full of [bleep]!
Miss Ugly over there.
Here she go.
About Jennifer?
You were texting me about Jennifer's boyfriend?
It went back, and then we have phone calls too.
[Vanessa] You're lying! You're full of [bleep], bitch.
You said Brooke looked like a [bleep] blow-up doll.
-No, I didn't, bitch! -You lyin'. I swear.
I'm not gonna sit here and [bleep] lie.
Well, bitch, I do look like a [bleep] blow-up doll--
-a good one. -[Clayanna] I'm not lying.
And then what? 'Cause that don't hurt my feelings.
My phone a little cracked up 'cause [indistinct].
Okay, so what happened?
Yes, read these [bleep] messages. Yes.
Clayanna is in her phone, lookin' for her receipts.
And honestly, I don't trust any of the receipts
that Clayanna has.
I don't trust any receipts that Vanessa has.
What I do know is that both of them as messy as [bleep].
"I'll see you tomorrow."
"Oh, I'm glad."
You's a fake-ass bitch.
"I'm happy." Look at her.
I'm happy you're back.
"I'm so so happy you're back."
"Hey, girl, just checkin' on you."
-Where is it about me? -We was on the phone.
-Okay, so what was said? -You're a lying [bleep]!
I'ma tell you what it said.
This--you look like a [bleep] blow-up doll.
You a fake-ass bitch.
You're a fake-ass bitch.
You's a fake-ass bitch too, so get on her.
How am I fake?
I don't have no problem with you, Jennifer.
We good. We can move on. I'm not even trippin'.
Did I--
I'm sorry.
Am I hearing things?
Girl, we're cool how, when, where?
You never apologize.
Oh, you think because now you're into it with somebody else,
you're gonna be cool with me? Uh-uh.
Look at you with your little [bleep]-up tit job--
Okay, so what--
[Clayanna] What the [bleep] is on your feet?
Whoa, let me just, before you even go there,
before you--this is my [bleep] birthday party.
For what it's worth, Clayanna, before we even go there,
since this is my [bleep] birthday party,
let's just go here.
You know what? Let's move on.
Let's talk about it later.
We ain't gonna talk about it later.
We're gonna talk about it right now.
So what, um--the things that I have heard that you were saying
is that you told Jac'Eil that she should've checked me
about body shaming Brittany or whatever,
that Brittany didn't body shame me first, which is not true.
But prior to that, you were saying--
telling Jac'Eil, like, what does she say to me
without knowing the full story instead of asking me.
And one thing that I wanna get clear is, like,
it's not a bitch standing here
that can [bleep] check me about [bleep].
[indistinct] likewise.
[Brooke] Yeah, not [bleep], not [bleep].
So if anybody at any given time has anything to say to me
-about anything, that's fine. -Likewise.
[Brooke] But at any given time,
if anyone has anything--
then you should've [bleep] said it to me
instead of tellin' her to give me the [bleep] message.
Well, it wasn't my problem. It wasn't my problem.
[Brooke] But you was puttin' your two cents in it.
I didn't put my two cents in--I said--
[Brooke] You did.
--she should've kept the same energy.
-Don't point your finger-- -I'ma do what I wanna do.
Don't point your finger at me when you [bleep] talk to me.
No matter where you come from,
if you're sticking your fingers in somebody's face,
that's usually a trigger for
the other person receiving the finger.
Brooke! Get Brooke!
[arguing]
Clayanna, now what you doin' is
you ain't trying to talk to nobody.
You got that--no, watch out. Watch out, Brooke.
I ain't gotta watch out--
What the [bleep] is going on here?
[indistinct], bitch. You ain't--
You're a [bleep] bitch!
Take your [bleep] and go home!
[Jackie] Next time on Basketball Wives...
I don't think you realize that your energy
and how you speak to people is [bleep] rude.
That pool party was crazy.
And I'ma make sure these women know
I'm done playing around.
We goin' to the shaman. Get up, get dressed right now.
You ready for some healing?
[exhales]
Brittany, I feel like your vulnerability to me
was super amazing.
We accept you for who you are and for who you want to be.
Thank you.
At that event, you saw that I was happy.
I know you saw that [bleep], because everybody sees my glow.
Yes.
So for you to try and diminish that [bleep]--
I just wanted to make sure you knew 'cause I would wanna know.
You don't have to make sure [bleep] about me!
You need to really look and be like, dang,
why am I doing the stuff that I'm doing?

[whoosh]
