[Evelyn] So much has happened in the last couple of months,
especially since I broke up with my ex-fiancé, Lavon.
As far as the relationship,
I think we need to call it quits.
I'm single, I really don't have time to go on dates.
I'm, like, juggling business, I have Leo.
The end of the day, if I want [bleep],
I can get it here, here, here, here, here.

Who the hell is Tattoo?
-A gringo. -A gringo.
After my breakup with Lavon,
it really motivated me to just be super focused on
my brand, my business,
and it's been a positive experience.
With SG, it is doing really, really good,
and it's something that I have to keep putting energy into it.
So, I decided to hire an assistant
to help me with all of my day-to-day [bleep]

-Hi! -Hey.
[Evelyn] This looks so good!
Yeah, so I am changing it to the packaging,

-In three months. -In three?
Oh [bleep], hurry up, come on. Go, go, [indistinct].
[Jac'eil] So the last time you saw me,
I went back to Mississippi.
I spent time with my family, my son,
he was playin' basketball, which was amazing,
'cause I hate missing his basketball.
But of course, I'm back in LA,
and I'm finally plannin' me and Natasha's wedding.
Me and Tasha is getting married, when she come back.
So, I'm tryin' to get fine.
[Jac'eil] I'm engaged to WNBA star Natasha Howard,
three-time champ, don't forget it.
Natasha basketball schedule is non-stop.
She's always traveling.
I'm happy that I got to spend time with you
before I'm leavin'.
I know.
-I'm scared. -[Natasha] I know.
-I'm about to put a heart. -A heart.
I'll put my initials.
So they can know Ms. Howard is still with you.
Here you go.
-Can I have a kiss? -Mm-hm.
With Natasha leaving soon,
I'm just thankful that I really, um, have friends here now.

I know a few things was said on social media,
and I'm seein' what's goin' on, and I'm takin' notes.
-[Evelyn] That was good. -[Jac'eil] That was good, yes.
He's a good trainer.
So, you excited about the wedding?
I am, it's hard 'cause Tasha gotta go overseas.
Mm.
She play year-round.
Sheesh, the year around?
It's kinda hard.
Well, listen, I'll help you with whatever.
-I want you guys to do great. -Right.
You know me and Brooke are here, we can help you figure it out.
We want this to be super great for you.
[Jac'eil] Thank you.
[Evelyn] A couple of the relationships here
are obviously, like, strained.
When it comes to, you know, Jackie,
it's been really, really difficult.
It all comes from her own personal insecurites,
and I'm tired.
I don't know Jackie like that, just be honest.
-I've seen a lot. -Mm-hm.
A few months ago, in this group of ladies,
everybody was getting along
until somebody wanted to open their mouth.
You're talkin' a lotta [bleep],
and that's just the reality of it.
[Jackie] Going on to to say the one thing I don't do...
You're not sayin' [bleep] at the end of the day.
[Jackie] Yeah, I am sayin' it. I am sayin' it to you.
You can try to talk all you want, girl.
Because you're jealous of me.
-Jealous?! -[Jackie] You wanna beef?
Now she's on this world tour of just doing
these meaningless interviews
where she's talking about the group,
and she also got exposed for talking [bleep]
about me and Shaunie.
It just seems like she has it out for everybody,
and it's just...
Not makin' sense.
Do you think she realize that she two-faced?
'Cause, you know, you can meet some people
that really think there's nothin' wrong with them like,
it's really everybody else.
I'm not worried about nothin' that Jackie says, does.

Well, you need to do a spin.

With all the slander goin' on with these ladies,
I just wanted to take a step back
and enjoy my time,
focusin' on what means the world to me,
and that's my family.
I love traveling with my husband.
And with Sacramento, my husband playin' there
and now coachin' there, I am one of their biggest fans.
So, I'm like the mascot.
I haven't seen these ladies in quite some time,
not face-to-face.
And now, I'm just hoping that we can get some resolution.
-[Jackie] I was... -Look at these little roses.
[Jackie] Yeah, I'mma let you look at those.
-This is an important... -[Jennifer] Look at how tiny
-they are. -Let me see.
I know, they're door, they're gorgeous.
-They're like... -I like those.
But I mean, this is your wedding and I don't know what colors
-you're doin'. -[Jennifer] No, no, no.
-I'm just, I'm just looking. -[Jackie] I'm glad that
you invited me to come out and look at these with you.
Like, I feel like the last time I seen you,
-it was definitely... -A lot was going on.
Last time we got together, it was pure chaos.
I know that Jackie has issues with some of the other women,
and I don't want any drama at my wedding.
Like, this is about celebrating love.
If she can't get along with these women,
she definitely can't come to my wedding.
-How did we get here? -[Jackie] How did we get here?
[Jennifer] Well, didn't you say you were gonna slap Evelyn?
If I said I'mma slap Evelyn, like I told them on that stage
and I told Shaunie in her face,
I'mma just slap the [bleep] outta you.
I could've said...
What happened to sisterhood?!
Sisterhood is still there.
You slap your sister sometimes.
-No, no. -[Jackie] The point is this.
These is some lyin' heathens.
-Who?! -[Jackie] And I ain't
goin' for it.
-Brooke Bailey. -You know she...
And Evelyn Lozada.
[Jennifer] My understanding was,
"Jackie is recording people on her phone line?"
Thank you, Jesus.
-[Jennifer] I'm baffled. -Thank you, Jesus,
that there is such a thing as record,
because luckily...
-But that's such an invasion... -[Jackie] No, no, no.
-Of privacy. -[Jackie] Jackie, didn't, no.
Jackie didn't record it,
but Jackie sure enough posted it, and I'll post it again.
Yeah.
I don't wanna keep doin' this.
I think it's beneath me.
The truth was put out there.
You heard my side and that person's side.
And here we are, havin' to address it yet again.
Despite all the accusations,
I still hold out hope that we can move on like grown women.
If I'm gonna have these women around me,
I do wanna get the ladies together.
And I feel like this'll be a good time for us
to just bring the sisterhood back together.
You know that's what I'm all about.
Sisterhood, I promise. That's gon' be the theme.
I'm gonna send an invite, they can come or don't come.
What?
You can be the reinforcer, because at the end of the day
-we out here in LA... -How I get involved?
I hope that we can sit down and have a conversation.
-Everybody... -About what?
About how do we move forward.
You keep preachin' sisterhood, I need you to remember that
when those hard conversations come about, and...
I'm seriously ready, okay?
Pinkie promise.
-What is this to? -[Jackie] To sisterhood.
But if I think they, like, buckin',
they buck, I'mma knuck.
[Jackie] Coming up on Basketball Wives.
This is Tasha last day in LA,
and I just wish that she could stay forever.
I wanted to try to get the sisterhood back together,
so hopefully you can join us.
Girl, [bleep] your sisterhood.
The safest thing that Jackie can do
is to stay away from me.
She always starts all this drama,
but then you wanna do this whole, "Oh my God,
let's do a Ponderosa or sisterhood."
She ain't ever been a sisterhood to nobody.
She's lyin'. Everybody's lyin'.

[Jackie] Hey, guys.
-Hey, Jackie. -Hey!
Ooh, let me close this.
Thank you guys for coming.
I'm really excited to meet each and every one of you.
So, I'll get set up, and we'll do it.
Regardless of what myself and the ladies are going through
in our girl group,
it does not affect my businesses.
I am a media mogul myself.
I've got my talk show that I'm doin',
I've got productions with TV and film,
and I act, as well.
I did have a test run with my talk show a few months ago,
and it was great.
Today, I have an amazing young woman,
she's gonna share a lot about her and so much more.
Stay tuned.
I'm not sure if I want it to be daytime or a nighttime show yet,
so all that's gettin' figured out right now.
One of the first steps is to get some interns in place
as I start looking for permanent hires.
So, look out, 'cause oh, Jackie's here.
-Hello. -[Jackie] Welcome.
-How you doin'? -[Jackie] I'm good, I'm good.
Jackie Christie, nice to meet you.
Thank you for comin' in.
Of course.
Right now, I'm currently launchin' my own talk show.
Okay.
Sometimes it's hard to admit, but I do need help.
So, I need an intern that's multifaceted.
The type of person that's a suitable intern for me
is someone that's energetic, a go-getter,
somebody that's not lazy,
someone that can think on their own.
And obviously, they do need to know what type of latte I like.
And don't put no sugar in it.
You would have to oversee social media, marketing.
I got you.
You also gotta do security.
Tell me a little bit more about yourself.
Do you drink?
I do drink a little bit.
Okay.
Have you ever interned for anybody of my caliber?
I haven't in a large capacity, no.
Have you ever been arrested?
I've never been arrested.
Amazing.
It's 24 hours, pretty much. On call.
I can always put myself on hold for you.
That's what I love to hear.
I'll be honest, some of it might be wild.
Gettin' drinks, gettin' food, gettin' coffee,
gettin' women, if that's what they want.
Oh, you got females and males. That's even better.
Meeting the interns has been amazing.
A lot of them aligned with what I'm looking for.
It's gonna be a tough decision,
but I got a lot on my plate and I'm ready to dig in.
Thank you so much for coming in, every single one of you.
I will definitely be in touch. Thank you so much.

Here we go.
Hey, ladies, um, I know the last time we saw each othe,
things were kinda up in the ai,
and, um, everyone was at each other's throat.
I would love to get together fr some good food,
some wine, and of course, some hard conversations.
You know I'm all about sisterhood,
and I would love for us to be able to sit down
-and chat it out. -Bitch...
[Jackie] So, hopefully you can join us,
and hopefully we can move on.
-Okay. -[Jackie] See you soon.
Whew, this is gonna be interesting.
[Evelyn] Whew, that voice!
"Hi, I just wanted to, like..."
-It was the head for me. -"Invite you..."
-When she was like this. -And her eyes look like this.
Evil.
Girl, [bleep] your sisterhood,
you are not [bleep] sending me your [bleep].
You know, last year, Jackie came and gave me an apology
about how she was not there for me
during the death of my daughter.
I love Kayla just like I love you.
What do I even say?
I struggle with that,
-and I didn't get a chance... -I understand.
To really tell you, so I'm sorry...
-[Brooke] Yeah. -That I didn't tell you.
Shortly after that, for whatever reason,
I see Jackie doing interviews
discussing how she was forced to give me an apology,
and those were not her true feelings.
So, I didn't take accountabiliy for anything,
because I got asked 15 different times.
Begged, pretty much.
"Please, we really need you to do this scene."
I felt like she slapped me in the face,
and the safest thing that Jackie can do
is to stay away from me.
Your invitation is a [bleep] no from me.
[Evelyn] Coming up on Basketball Wives.
[Evelyn] This is horrible.
[Tanya] You might not be able to return it.

Of course.
Today I'm going to meet with my manufacturer, Tanya
to, uh, go through the designs,
and just to really get my ducks in order
for when it's time to launch these amazing bodysuits,
and I am so excited.
First of all, the color, so amazing.
Well, it has a built-in bra. See?
Which is good, because you don't have to wear an extra bra.
-[Evelyn] Yeah. -[Tanya] Especially when
you're working out, and, you know,
it's the four-way stretch,
-so... -[Evelyn] Yeah.
-[Tanya] That's the best. -[Evelyn] I love it.
Wanna go to my office?
Let's go to where the magic happens.
[Tanya] Yeah.
My goal is to, uh, attract new buyers.
So, I'm putting together a photoshoot to, you know,
have great photos,
reels, content for the social media page,
and, more importantly, the website.
[Tanya] So, wait 'til you feel these.
This is 'butter soft'.
-Oh, yeah. -[Tanya] It's new,
and it's recycled.
-This is really pretty. -This is a pretty color.
-[Tanya] Mm-hm. -What do we have goin' on here?
[Tanya] Okay, so this is the, uh, fabric that we bought
because we couldn't wait.
Yeah, so...
It looks cute.
[Evelyn] Maybe I should try this on
and see how it looks.
[Tanya] Yeah.
So, my spring/summer line,
I would love to add bodysuits that are sexy.
But you don't always select the right fabric,
you don't always select [bleep] people like.
So, there are times that
I could look at a swatch and think, like,
"Wow, this is gonna be amazing,"
but I haven't always hit it out the park.
What?!
[Tanya] Where are you goin'?
Wait!
-It looks... -[Evelyn] Tanya,
where am I going with this?
Like, uh-uh, this fabric is not gonna work.
It's cool in here, I feel hot.
We're gonna get yeast infections wearin' this.
-You pull it off, but... -No.
Well, I have more news.
We may not be able to return it, that's the problem.
Yeah, so...
Are you kidding?
Mm-mm.
I spend $4,000 on this material.
It was almost five, yeah.
[Evelyn] Oh my God.
It's not gonna work.
This is a huge lesson learned.
You know, I took a, a, a big financial hit,
but at the end of the day, I am always gonna bet on myself,
and I'm gonna do whatever it takes
to make it even better than ever.
Literally all the money that I spend on this brand
I make, and I'm like...

But I'm so happy, like, my baby is here.
-You know? -Yes.
My son, in January of 2023,
he was diagnosed with Anomalous Right Coronary Artery.
We went to the doctor,
and the doctor saw something that was abnormal.
And he mentioned to me that this is something serious.
We had to do the surgery for him to live.
It still breaks me that I could've lost my baby.
My son is perfectly fine, a brand-new, beautiful heart.
[Brooke] Yes.
I'm happy you're happy,
'cause I know how stressful life can be.
Well, we're caught up on you.
Um... Did you get Jackie's invite?
I'm not goin' to that [bleep].
Wait, what's goin' on?
First of all, I'm appaled that she even had the nerve
to send me an invite.
Wait, what?
-Okay. -What's goin' on?
She came to me [indistinct], she was like, "Hey, I wanna get
all the ladies together."
I haven't seen Jackie in so long.
I don't trust her.
-Uh... -[Brooke] As you shouldn't.
The last issue that I had was when she posted the recording.
Brandi was on the phone, I was on the phone.
-She said... -[Jennifer] She said
-she did not... -She was gonna slap Evelyn,
and she said Shaunie was hiding from her,
-and she said she was... -Bro, it was a joke.
I was on this phone call with Brittish and Jackie.
And she's mad that she's not in this photo,
and started going off on Shaunie and Evelyn
for no reason.
I don't even know if I can see her,
well, just face-to-face, like...
Well, you have to come to this party with me.
Hm?
Well, did you tell her that I was gon' come?
'Cause she gon' be like, "Oh."
I don't have to tell her [bleep] she's lucky I'm coming.
[Brandi laughing]
[Brandi] Okay.
[Brooke] Coming up on Basketball Wives.
Was you really on the phone?
I was dead-ass on the [bleep]ing phone!
-Okay, but please be careful... -[Brandi] Hold on, hold on.
-Of these lies. -[Brandi] Hold on.
Her deflecting, her lying,
her [bleep]ing not letting nobody talk,
it's like, why are we here?
[dramatic music]
[upbeat music]
[singing in French]
[All] Bonjour!
[speaking French]
[Cynthia] Nice to meet you.
I heard there is, like, a special occasion
for your class?
-Yeah. -We're getting married in Paris,
and we just got back from Paris.
-So, we're still in... -[Cynthia] Nice.
Parisian mode.
I'm takin' French lessons, oui, oui,
because I am getting married in Paris,
and Christian and I wanna say
a little something to our guests in French.
Do you want to know how to say anything specific
for the ceremony?
Maybe a little toast, or...?
-A toast would be cute. -A toast would be good.
Yeah? I'm sure you know 'welcome'.
[Jennifer] 'Bonjour'? No, that's...
-Hello, hello. -Yeah.
[speaking French]
-You're gonna drag the T. -Oh, drag it in.
[speaking French]
So, French is a very difficult language,
and I am a Jersey girl.
It's just, you know,
my tongue doesn't roll a certain way.
So, I gotta just get the, you know,
the zhuzh of French.
[speaking French]
-[Cynthia] Yeah. -That's good.
[Cynthia speaking French]
Maybe then you can end with cheers.
[speaking French]
[Cynthia] Cheers, cheers, the best.
-Thank you. -[Cynthia] You're welcome.
[Cynthia speaking French]
Six months and counting!
Six months.
I just want it to be stress-free.
-[Jennifer] Yes. -So, what's your thoughts on,
you know, the girls?
Like, inviting them, have you put them on the list already?
I would definitely invite Evelyn, Brooke, Jac'eil.
But...
I feel like Jackie...
I don't know, I just feel like a lot has transpired
where she has, like,
a bunch of issues with other people.
So, I'm like, "Well, if they come..."
I just don't want it to be about that.
So, yeah, we'll see.
I thank God that I am not in the center of Jackie's bull[bleep].
I have had my journey with Jackie,
and right now,
I'm just tryin' to stay in a good space with her.
When it comes to this wedding invitation,
let's just see how this ponderosa goes.
What do we always say, happy wife, happy life?
Yeah.
♪ I'm a God, obliterate you ♪
♪ From my heart, I'll make them hate you ♪
♪ Don't cause harm to a god ♪
♪ god, god, god, god ♪
♪ What? ♪
-[Jackie] This is so beautiful. -[Cheyenne] I love it.
Jac'eil, Evelyn, Brooke.
[Jackie] Tonight is the ponderosa.
Cheyenne Bryant is a good friend of mine,
and she might be able to bring some resolution to this mess.
What's the intent?
To move forward.
I am going in with an open heart, an open mind,
but I'm not sure what kinda vibe they're gonna have
as they come in.
It is going to be an extremely tough task.
[Cheyenne] I like this.
♪ Once you lie, there's no empathy ♪
♪ I don't break bread, epecially not with my enemies ♪
[Evelyn] Are you ready for tonight?
I'm surprised as hell that you are here.
Um, I am, too.
But you know what? I feel like I need answers.
[Evelyn] There's a part of me that believes
havin' a conversation with Jackie
may give me a little bit of clarity as to
what did I do to you,
and why do you wanna slap me in the face?
But she's a narcissist,
and she's gonna do what she usually does,
which is lie.
♪ Don't be surprised if I go and ruin your everything ♪
[Cheyenne] Somethin' doesn't go right, then...?
Bring it on, I'mma pivot.
I'mma pivot!
Watch me pivot, girl!
Hopefully we'll figure out what the [bleep]in' problem is.
But I'm cool never talkin' to Jackie ever again.
♪ I'm a god, obliterate you ♪
♪ From my heart, I'll make them hate you ♪
[Female Narrator] Coming up on Basketball Wives.
[Jennifer] This is the sisterhood.
But then, something hurtful happened.
-Or... -[Jackie] It's kinda like
when Jen supposedly talked about Evelyn's daughter,
and she treated her [bleep]ed up for the last three years,
and nobody was her friend, but I was.
-Jesus Christ! -[Jackie] Go ahead, go ahead.
I rest my case. Let's keep it one hundred.
Misery loves company, and she's the miserable bitch.
[dramatic music]
♪ Ooh, ooh, ooh ♪
♪ Please pass me tonight ♪
-[Jennifer] Hello. -Hey, Jennifer!
I've arrived!
You look absolutely [bleep] stunning.
Thank you for coming,
and I would love to introduce you to Cheyenne.
-I'm Jennifer. -Hi.
-[Jennifer] Nice to meet you. -Pleasure.
[Jackie] She is a friend of mine,
and hopefully she can help bring some sense to all of this.
I need you right next to me, girl,
'cause you supposed to be helpin' me.
-Remember our pinkie promise? -I'm glad I'm close to the door,
'cause I might have to dash out.
I don't know how I feel about this girl Cheyenne
and her bein' the moderator.
Because I feel like she's going to be biased.
Wait, do we need a drink first?
Yeah, we need a drink first.
I know me, I'mma ride for my friends.
So, if that's the situation, we're not gonna get anywhere.
-Do you have a cab? -I have a merlot.
Ooh, no.
-[Jackie] Oh my God, I forgot. -I'll do a champagne.
I should've had Dom Pérignon for this one.
No, I just don't do merlot.
My palate is a little bit more advanced.
Especially after Paris.
Yeah.
[bass-heavy music]
Hello, ladies.
-Hello. -[Jackie] Hi.
[Cheyenne] How are you?
-Hey, you. -Hi.
[Cheyenne] I didn't get to meet you already, hi.
-Nice to meet you. -[Evelyn] Nice to meet you, too.
[Jac'eil] This is nice. This is nice.
Oh, I invited Brandi. Brandi is coming.
[Jackie] Oh, good.
Good, that's amazing.
[bass-heavy music]
♪ Boom, boom, does it hurt when I call out the facts? ♪
[Evelyn] We was just talkin' about you, girl!
[Brandi] Hi, Evelyn!
I am very surprised to see Brandi at Jackie's ponderosa.
But I'm happy that she is another set of ears
that was on that call with Jackie
talkin' [bleep] about me and Shaunie.
Now Jackie is gonna have to say the truth.
-You're Jac'eil. -[Jac'eil] Yes.
I hear about you, too, girl, all the time.
Hi, Brandi.
-You look [bleep] amazing. -[Cheyenne] How are you?
Seein' Brandi here at my event without an invite
definitely feels like a setup.
You weren't even invited.
Get the hell out.
I'mma just come really raw.
The last time I was around these ladies,
we got into some words.
I'm not really here to rehash it,
but the harder conversation is why did it happen,
and how do we move forward.
Because I don't wanna live my life
arguin' with the very women that I considered friends.
I was assuming Brooke was coming,
she did get an invite,
we'll deal with that another time.
I invited my friend Cheyenne,
that could mediate the situation.
'Cause I think it, it just gets out of hand most of the time.
So, what do you know about the situation?
She didn't say the root of the harvest.
Okay, so, the root of the harvest
is Jackie and I had a conversation.
We hang up the phone, and right after that,
she goes and she calls someone that is not here
to talk [bleep] about me and Shaunie.
Like, I didn't do anything to you.
So, for me to hear from Brooke
that there was [bleep] being said,
and Brandi, if you want, you can hop in,
-because I wasn't on the call. -What was said, what was said?
She didn't want her here in, in LA.
She didn't want her in the circle.
First of all...
You didn't even want Shaunie or Evelyn around.
-Oh gosh. -[Brandi] Because you said
it's your city,
there's no reason for them to be here.
[Jackie] This is silly, Brandi.
You should know me better than that, Brandi.
Brandi was on the call.
[Jackie] Lie, lie, lie.
Can Jennifer talk?
Yes, she can.
-You were on the call, Brandi. -[Brandi] Yes.
Why do you keep emphasize a [bleep]in' phone call
she was illegaly listening to, which she really wasn't?
I can't even finish what I needs to say!
Jackie's tell-tale signs when her ass is lyin',
she's definitely gon' do this with that wig.
She's gon' make faces, she's gonna talk over you.
It's very frustrating to even witness.
Was you really on the phone?
I was dead-ass on the [bleep]ing phone!
-Okay, Brandi... -[Brandi] Hold on, hold on,
-hold on, hold on, hold on. -Please be careful
-of these lies. -[Brandi] Hold on.
Why are you recording your friends over the phone?
[Jackie] I didn't record it.
Luckily, a good friend of mine did and gave it to me,
-and I did post it. -Oh my God.
I wanna know why she wants to slap the [bleep] out of me.
-Like, what led to that? -Right.
Did anyone hear her say it?
-Yes. -[Jackie] You heard me say it?
Okay, if I did say it, I don't wanna slap you, Ev.
Okay, what does that do for you, or where does that put you at?
I'm in the same spot that I was at ten hours ago.
She's always preaching sisterhood.
She always starts all this drama,
but then you wanna do this whole, "Oh my God,
let's have a ponderosa or sisterhood."
She ain't never been a sisterhood to nobody.
She ain't never supported nobody here.
Keep lyin'. Everybody's lying.
So, let's rewind a little bit
-another issue. -[Jackie] I'm fine, I'm fine.
[Evelyn] You went and had
a great conversation with Brooke,
y'all had a sisterhood, and what does she do?
She goes and does a [bleep]in' interview
talkin' about, "No, I didn't mean that apology."
Like what?! Like, this woman lost her child!
And you are gonna, like, and you guys had this beautiful moment,
and you didn't apologize, like, for, like, not bein'...?
Girl, bye.
You [bleep]in' whack-job.
Comin' into this ponderosa,
I coming in with an open mind.
But her deflecting, her lying,
her [bleep] not letting nobody talk,
it's like, why are we here?
[Evelyn] I'm done.
Bye-bye! A liar gon' be a liar always!
No, you're the liar.
-Get home safe. -[Evelyn] I will.
-Bye-bye, liar! -Please.
Thanks for coming.
[dramatic music]
Bye-bye, a liar gon' be a liar always!
No, you're the liar.
-Bye-bye, liar! -[Evelyn] Please.
Thanks for coming.
Evelyn jumpin' up and walkin' out
instead of finding a resolution
just shows me even more that's not what she came for.
[Jac'eil ]You don't have to stay.
-[Evelyn] Sis... -I'm not, I'm not doin' it.
There's no accountability there.
I'm tellin' you, this is what she does.
This is what it's been for [bleep]in' ten years.
[Cheyenne] Nothing y'all say is gonna change her perception.
What conversation do you believe is gonna shift this
into somethin' else?
I think the issue comes in when we keep sayin', like,
-"This is a sisterhood." -Right.
But then something hurtful happened.
-Or... -[Jackie] It's kinda like
when Jen supposedly talked about Evelyn's daughter,
and she treated her [bleep]ed up for the last three years,
and nobody was her friend but I was,
and now it's a whole different story.
That's what it is.
-Jesus Christ! -[Jackie] Go ahead, go ahead.
I rest my case.
Let's keep it one hundred.
[Jennifer] Jackie, Jackie, Jackie.
See, now you goin' down the wrong rabbit hole.
Misery loves company, and she is the miserable bitch.
Because you wanna deflect your bull[bleep]?
I'm not gonna allow it.
Now I know who not to invite to my wedding.
-What's goin' on? -Evelyn's just upset
because she just feel like she really came here to...
Bull[bleep].
[Jac'eil] Jackie, let me talk.
Evelyn's just upset because she just feel like
she accepted Jackie's invitation.
She's goddamn lyin'.
The bitch tryin' to call me out my mother[bleep]in' name,
you heard her.
What, what are you...?
She want me to sit and let her say dumb [bleep],
and I ain't.
I'm not sayin' let her say some dumb [bleep].
You ain't lettin' me talk, and me and you ain't even beefin'.
It's me and you at the table now.
She wants to talk about when you and I were beefin',
and all of this.
-Like, stop trying to deflect! -Mm-hm.
You invited me.
All because you were on the call!
I know, but like, it's too much.
If Jackie can't even admit to anything that she said,
I don't know where the group can go.
People are hurt, no one trusts her,
and I just can not take the lies anymore.
You just get into this thing in your head
where you'll feel like if I say somethin',
you feel like I'm takin' up for person
and I'm not takin' up for you.
You are automatically pushin' me to Evelyn, like...
-Bye. -Because you feel like
-I came in with her. -Bye.
So, it's like... You see what I mean?
I love you, though. But bye.
[tense music]
What the [bleep] is goin' on with her?
I can't understand a group of women
who have so much goin' on that's positive...
[Jackie] Oh yeah, we won. Thank you, Jesus.
[Cheyenne] Just project so much unhappiness.
-No, she's bein' a mean ass. -Oh, Lord.
-You a mean ass. -[Jackie] Oh, Lord.
I don't think Cheyenne really knew what she was up against.
She ain't do nothin'.
Miss Christie, you tell me to shoo like I'm a damn dog,
and that literally pissed me off.
But that shoo [bleep] almost made her catch a shoe.
I'm just bein' honest.
I have nothing to gain by bein' mean to these women.
Never have.
What I will not tolerate
is for someone to assassinate my character.
I have kept elevatin', and they want me out the way.
[dramatic music]
[Jackie] This season on Basketball Wives.
[Jackie] Despite what the women say,
my talk show will be a huge hit.
I would like to first introduce
the most amazing alpaca you ever seen!
[Woman] Oh my God.
Boom.
You got some [bleep] recently?
I did.
[Brooke] This is not a rebound, he's the one, yes.
I promise to love you for richer or richer.
Jennifer, what?
[Christian] Budget is gettin' crazy.
It's a astronomical amount, little under $250,000.
Well, I can't do broke, I'm allergic to it.
[Jac'eil] Natasha always working.
It's just hard.
I don't know if I can do this.
[Woman] Where the [bleep] is Jac'eil?
[Brooke] Where is Jac'eil?
[Evelyn] You should be questioning your [bleep] dude
that slept with 300 bitches.
You can't bring up my husband in, in the friendship group!
I'm sorry that my past is a weapon towards you.
[Jac'eil] We say we a sisterhood,
we gon' have disagreements.
This is silly, and it's beneath me.
It's beneath me, actually!
Don't step closer to me!
If I wanted to fight you, I will fight you.
[Jackie] [indistinct], I dare you.
I'll beat your ass while I finish this [bleep] taco, bitch!
[Evelyn] I started doing some digging,
and I stumbled upon some information.
-On Jackie? -Yes!
Girl, you're an imposter.
Oh, I'm an imposter?
[Evelyn] She's livin' a double life.
Clutch your pearls.
