Previously on Next Gen NYC.
It's Brooks' birthday coming up.
Do you want to go to, like, Jersey Shore?
I might not go.
Does that make me a bad friend if I don't?
I love the Jersey Shore!
Should we talk about the elephant in the room?
I love you. [elephant trumpets]
She took my speakers.
She hasn't returned them.
[laughing]
- You got your speaker back. - Yeah, I did.
You didn't so much as apologize.
You're a stupid, delusional bitch, Georgia.
You still get money from your ----ing dad.
- You're a ----ing joke. - If you were a man,
I'd slap you in the face right now.
- My mom's actually pissed. - Over Charlie?
Just because of the whole thing about how we
basically paid for him to bring all these girls out
and give them drinks.
From the moment that I met Charlie,
we had beef. Owing money,
telling my friend you want to [bleep] me
when you know I have a boyfriend.
He's about to step into a house
full of people he has beef with.
We're all mad at Charlie.
Things that were said are irreparable.
But we made a plan for the first night
to be about Brooks' birthday.
Ariana doesn't have a problem with Charlie at all.
I never said I didn't have a problem with Charlie at all.
Poor kid, he's sitting at dinner.
- Okay, pause. - Don't want any part
in any conflict so I'm just so in my own world.
- Bullsh--. - No, I did not...
[overlapping fighting]
I cannot drink a drink without a straw.
Girl we already had this conversation.
- Bullsh-- - Girl, please.
You're like, oh, Charlie, smile,
- get in this photo with me. - No, I didn't.
I said, Charlie, look.
Oh, aren't you guys so ----ing
sick of saying his name?
- Ariana. - Honestly,
I'm about to literally lose it because
she's just gonna continue on going.
- I'm not. - You're talking sh--
and I...
[overlapping fighting]
Disengage.
[birds chirping]
Disgusting.
[rhythmic music]
I like your smelly morning breath.
- Good morning. - Oh, my God, good morning.
I, like, couldn't hear you.
I woke up so early.
- Kevin's, like, working. - I get it.
And then I had to clean.
Like that seafood boil,
why the [bleep] was it just sitting there?
Is that a souvenir?
Yay.
Smelled like seafood and tequila.
I wanted to vomit the second I walked out here.
I'm excited for the beach today.
I want to see all the water.
I'm, like, scared.
Aren't there, like, a lot of sharks in Jersey?
Wait, I actually have a shark tracker.
Wait, I have that app, too. I love it.
- Did you use it yet? - Yeah, did you see the one
with the two girl sharks and they're, like,
besties and they always travel together?
Uh, oh. Scott is getting really close. You see him?
He weighs 1600 pounds,
so I'm not letting him get me.
[gasps]
There are so many sharks over here.
- Wait, seriously? - Yeah, girl.
I'm not getting in this water.
I love this app, it's so stupid.
[text chimes]
Wait, where is Chloe?
She left at, like, 7:00 this morning.
She had a doctor's appointment.
She went back all the way to the city?
- Yeah. - Oh, damn.
I wonder if Omar came back here.
I don't know. Good question. Is Georgia here right now?
She should be.
[rhythmic music]
Last night, I feel like everything just got
kind of out of hand. At a certain point,
we didn't know what we were fighting about
but we were fighting. So I didn't really
feel like going back to the house with everyone.
I wonder if Georgia's coming back today.
I hope so. I want to talk to her.
I was like, maybe too aggressive.
I've replayed this conversation between me and Georgia
quite a bit. Maybe I could've come off
- as a mean girl. - Ariana doesn't have a problem
- with Charlie at all. - I never said I didn't have
a problem with Charlie at all, to get your facts straight.
Honestly, Georgia, just speak the [bleep] up
if you speak the [bleep] up, if not shut your damn mouth.
Talk it instead of this. It was maybe a little aggressive
screaming over the side of the table.
I was thinking about it all night, I was like
waking up the whole time and was like, oh my gosh,
you know I don't like to have conflict with people.
[ringing]
Hi. Did you just wake up?
I woke up, no joke, I've never had
a worse headache in my entire ----ing life.
- Really? - It's like someone took an axe
and slashed it across my head.
Oh, gosh.
I have, like, a hangover in every like,
level of being right now.
Emotional, spiritual, physical.
I'm hungover across the board.
Where are you?
Omar and I just got a hotel room at the casino.
Wait, where is he?
He had to go back to New York.
- I know. - Oh, what?
I know, I know.
Last night was just so much,
I just had to remove myself. It was just like,
everything was happening all at once
and I was literally, like, ----ing Omar's
mute over there. Mr. Mute.
You said a lot of...
[overlapping bickering]
[chuckles] That'll be the last night
he was my man, to be real.
But I am proud of you sticking up for yourself
'cause I feel like that's the only time,
no offense, that I've seen you have a real backbone.
No offense. - Thank you.
Last night, it was just kind of like,
oh, now all of the sudden everyone loves Charlie.
Charlie, look!
It's literally a twilight zone.
Everyone forgot that Charlie
literally said he would slap Georgia if she was a guy.
If you were a man, I'd slap you in the face right now.
Out of all the things we're mad about with Charlie,
especially like something as stupid as getting a table
at a club, that comment is not okay at all
and I don't like how we swept that under the rug.
Alright, I'll see you later.
[fly buzzing] There are so many flies.
[eerie dramatic music]
- Oh, my God. - I've been dying to use this.
Not the electric fly swatter.
Who brings a fly zapper on a trip?
Oh, my God, I'm gonna throw up. I'm scared!
[loud zap] Oh, I heard it.
Get that away from me.
[shrieks] Oh, my God, they're everywhere.
They're literally everywhere.
[shrieks]
I hate bugs more than the next bitch,
but like a fly zapper?
Like, to pack that in your suitcase
is like, diabolical.
Wait, is that even a bug?
[zap] Ah!
- I don't feel good. - Me neither.
I don't always travel with a fly swatter,
but I've never been to the Jersey Shore.
I grew up going to the Jersey Shore.
You go tubing, you do water sports,
you go crabbing. There's just so much-
- Crabbing? - Yeah.
What's crabbing?
Like, you get crabs.
Like you pick up crabs?
No, like you put a cage in the water.
That's sick.
[electric zapping] Girl.
What are you doing? Let me see this.
Brooks is in his Hannibal Lecter era.
You have to click the button for it to electrocute.
Oh. [zaps]
Oh, my God, no. Don't do that. What is wrong with you?
I killed bugs with that this morning.
Good morning. Rise and shine.
You got water balloons in that bag?
Georgia is staying at the hotel
so she asked me to bring her a swimsuit.
- We need to get outside. - I know, agreed.
Does anyone want to go to the cabana with me?
Because I'm supposed to go with Georgia but I don't wanna go,
like, by myself.
With no preface of what went on with me and Georgia last night,
'cause I would love to actually have a conversation with her,
so outside of all of that, I definitely want
- to go to the beach. - Good morning, gorge.
They're having a cabana at the casino pool or whatever
but I want to do the beach.
[indistinct chatter] I want to do the beach.
- Yeah, we're beach. - Beaches!
- What's good? - What up, baby?
- How you feeling? - Good morning.
- How's the cake? - Stale. I took a bite-
You were eating it, too.
- You ate it, too. - No, I was going out
to go to the hammock last night, okay? I see her and Charlie
in the kitchen eating cake and I'm like, wait?
That was me? I literally walked out, there was a cake
- right there. I'm like, bro. - That was both of you.
- Now I'm nervous. - You're being a little crazy.
I don't remember everything.
I mean, I was really drunk.
Ariana, can I get a shot of...
Casamigos tequila margarita...
A double. Can I get five of them?
Ariana!
Yo, I have a funny video of you from last night.
- I just remembered. - Huh?
- You were whipping Hudson. - Whipping?
Let me see it so I can delete it.
- Nah. - Give me your phone right now.
Not now. I mean, we were all active as [bleep] up here
for like, 'til 7:00 AM.
All in all, last night was pretty messy.
I mean, I was kind of just expecting to, like,
gamble and, you know, eat dinner
but it was just me in the hot seat all night.
I can't look you in the eye.
You're doing a fine job right now.
I still think you're a dick.
I don't ----ing hate you.
I hate you, but do you know how to do crap table?
- No. - Well, hate is a strong word.
- That was a joke. - Thank you.
I don't like you. Do you know crap table?
Then even Hudson, he did pull me aside
up by the restaurant.
Riley told us about
how you think Ariana's hot.
Wait, Riley said what?
- That I think Ariana's hot? - Yeah.
She's an attractive girl. It should be a compliment.
But I didn't say it in a derogatory way.
Ariana's not gonna leave my side.
I'm impressed. 'Cause...
You gotta say something
if you know that sh--, you know?
All I said was she was hot, but I get it.
I didn't think it would come across...
And that's whatever. I gotta bad bitch.
I wonder if he's ever gotten into a fight.
I don't want there to be this underlying bullsh--.
- You know? - Yeah, agreed.
He has to have some ability to defend himself
if he's walking around with that much jewelry.
Is Shai coming today? [video call dialing]
Let's see. Shai. We're waiting for you! Hurry.
- Is he coming? - Hurry, are you coming?
I'm supposed to come see you guys after work.
- We're having so much fun. - We need you here, bro.
- We wish you were here. - Okay, bye.
Ow. I burned my mouth.
You cannot cook.
Does anyone else like their pancakes a little rare?
Mmm...
No, but it's your birthday, so you can have
whatever you want.
Wait, are you excited for the theme tonight, Brooks?
- Jersey Shore. - I can't wait.
Yeah, you do. I told you.
Your black shirt with the black Zara pants.
It's Jersey Shore night. All you need to do
is look yourself and you look like the Jersey Shore.
I really want to go play water sports.
Let's go.
[upbeat music]
- Hi. - Hey.
Are you back in New York yet?
Oh, really? Are you ever going to travel
with me and my friends again? [chuckles]
Like, clearly there is stuff that you guys have to work out.
I was not in a position to say anything.
I understand why you didn't say anything at dinner.
I know, like, some people feel really strongly, like,
oh your man should be standing up for you.
It's like, well A, I can fight my own...
Yeah, but there is a way to deal with things
the right way and my intention,
for me to sit down with Charlie
and have a man-to-man conversation.
- Yeah. - But then...
Us all fighting,
it was like about him but it wasn't about him,
- you know what I mean? - No, I know.
I don't think it's like, his intention
to create fights between you guys, but I think...
I think it just follows him.
Like death follows a grim reaper.
Can I ask the meaning of this?
- Does it have a meaning? - It's a scythe.
The grim reaper cuts, like, people with it.
Coming up...
Georgia, please, oh, my God.
- Georgia... - What?
All I'm gonna say is this is a terrible idea.
[confident music]
Nothing, I'm at the nail salon.
Did you hear about the cockroach in my apartment last night?
It was horrifying.
I didn't stare at it.
I don't even want to think about it.
All I know is that when the maintenance man came,
he went, "Ooh!"
And I was like, "What noise was that?
Can you not make that noise?" And he was like,
"Sorry, it was just a big one."
Mm.
[rhythmic music]
I'm going to a brand event in the Hamptons.
Unfortunately, the event is in the middle
of the birthday trip.
Um, yeah, you could do one more, please.
I moved to New York to focus on my modelling,
so my team told me I should be at this event.
Sometimes I have to miss out on things that I don't want
to have to miss out on, but I do,
and there's a lot of events happening all the time.
It's non-stop. My friends who are also working,
like Brooks, totally understand.
[mariachi music]
We're not going in the ocean, though, so you're good.
Oh. Wait, it's not an ocean?
- No, it's the bay. Look. - Oh, true.
We're here. Thank God.
Let's go. Water sports.
[upbeat music]
- Oh, my God. - Oh, my God, I want to play.
Bruh, this looks fun as [bleep].
- Hell yeah. - We're gonna get you guys
some life jackets and then we're gonna take you down
to the boats for some shooting and some wakeboarding today.
- Perfect. Awesome. - Awesome, thank you.
- There you guys go. - It's kind of a vibe.
Oh, watch your step.
- Is there a bar on the water? - Have fun!
- Thank you! - Thank you, guys.
[horn honking]
[dark pop music]
- Hi! - Hi. Oh, you look beautiful.
- How are you? - Oh, this is cute.
The big, like, live streams of the beach right there going on.
- It's kinda cute. - Why was I sleeping
- in the house? - I know!
- Wait, where's Omar? - He went back to New York
a bunch of hours ago, actually.
So what have you been doing?
I've literally been watching TikToks on my phone.
Oh, okay.
I don't know exactly where his money comes from.
Think he did like, good crypto trades
and investments in other crypto companies.
And, um...
I think he has some Airbnb properties.
Stuff like that.
- You wanna go to the pool? - Yeah.
Okay, well can you put on your swimsuit and your fit?
Yeah, did you bring my stuff, perchance?
Did you forget it? [chuckles]
[upbeat music]
Hello, how are you?
Good. Do you guys have a cabana available?
Wow, beautiful.
Ooh, look at this. Oh my gosh.
One thing I do know how to do is open a bottle of champagne.
Do you ever get, like, shaky when you're hungover?
I get shaky with anxiety every day.
- Really, every day? - Mm-hmm.
- That sounds terrible. - It comes randomly.
Like, I'll be chilling by myself
and then I have to be in a social situation
and I'm, like, I start shaking.
Aww. Well you can't tell, honestly.
Good. I feel like everyone can.
Wait, is that for the drink? [chuckles]
It looked like whipped cream.
I see a softness in Riley
and I can tell she has, like a good heart.
- Let's do a cheers. - Cheers.
- Thank you for joining me here. - Period. Yeah.
Yeah, I'm always gonna feel a little weird
being in the bathroom with her when I don't wash my hands.
[toilet flushing]
I think we can have a real friendship, genuinely.
Like, I think she's a really sweet girl.
- Girl. - What?
I thought we said mimosas. You just poured champagne.
I know. And then you put a glob of who knows what, so,
we're past that. [chuckles]
Oh, my God. We're gonna fly.
What we say out here is if you don't get hurt
after tubing, you didn't do it right.
- Exactly. - Woo!
They better speed that sh-- up.
[upbeat music]
Mayday, mayday.
[upbeat music]
- Hi, how are you? - Good. My name's Melody.
- I'll be your server. - Nice to meet you.
Do you have anything like a frozen drink?
- Can I get a Miami Vice? - We do.
- Can I get one as well, please? - Sure.
When I'm, like, in a bad mood I just need something frozen.
Cool down literally and metaphorically.
Oh, my God, that looks amazing.
Cheers to happiness.
Yes, thank you.
Mm, yum.
[action music]
They're flying.
- Oh, my God. - Oh, my God!
I want to go to La Mode too. Honestly, my only concern
is I love Ariana, and I respect her so much,
and I don't want to be fighting with her.
Like, what is the sentiment from Ariana
and like, Hudson and Emira and all them?
Like, they're chill. Emira, I haven't heard
her say anything, but I also don't know, like,
y'all's conversation.
I think she might have just been tired and hungry.
I mean, obviously this sh--'s going on with Charlie,
but besides... Like, I don't like fighting with my friends.
I don't do it often.
[rhythmic music]
So I was extra fiery last night at our dinner,
but I don't ever want people to feel attacked,
and I feel like Georgia felt attacked from me last night.
I think you were 100% valid in what you were saying
and what you were feeling and how you were reacting to it.
I feel like part of it was maybe influenced
by what I told you earlier.
Basically, what happened was,
I got our burgers delivered, and she goes...
You know we're going to dinner, right?
Um, yeah. But I didn't eat earlier.
I haven't had any food all day.
Are you gonna go to the beach?
Oh, my God, the Ozempic is wearing off.
- You need to take your shot. - No, no, I haven't had any
food all day. It is the most classless thing
to comment on what someone is eating.
That is, like, basic etiquette number one.
That's something you learn when you're in, like,
- third ----ing grade. - It's common sense.
But also you never know what people go through internally
- with food and things. - Exactly.
It's a very big thing for women.
Everyone! Everyone has some kind of relationship for food.
It's a sensitive topic for even her.
Listen, I used to dance competitively and that alone,
I have a very weird relationship with food and my body,
so I think it just triggered and brought up so much emotion
from my past. It just, like, threw me for a loop, bitch.
There are things you do not say to someone.
There are things you do not say to your friends.
That is just, grow up.
- How old are you, Christian? - 23. How old are you?
- 29. - Oh, you should be getting
ready to have a kid soon, no?
- Me? - Do you wanna get married soon?
Married? I'm not dying to get married.
It's not something that I, like, need to do before I die.
- Oh. - What about you?
Do you think you're gonna, like, be down to get married?
If Kade proposed to you, would you be like,
- so over the moon? - Yeah. I feel like
when you know you know.
I honestly thought when I was 25
I'd be married and have, like, a kid.
I feel like I have so many visions
for what I want for myself at 25
and I don't know if I'm going to be able
to attain those things.
I want a kid soon.
Soon?
Would you adopt or would you do sperm?
- Um... - Sperm's what? You both jizz
in a cup and then you mix it and they choose a random one?
[laughing]
But that's dead-ass what they do.
You guys are laughing.
By the way, do they have you come
in separate cups or do you both put your dicks
and like you touch tips in the same cup?
That's actually a great question.
Ready to go back shore-side.
I want to do this so bad.
What in the world?
What the [bleep] is going on? Where are we going?
[shrieks] Shut up, are you serious?
No. Oh, my God. Are you serious?
Bro, I'm going home, bro.
Shut up.
Coming up.
When you get a little tipsy,
you get a little rough.
Wait, mm-mm.
[rhythmic music]
- Wait, why is she in a robe? - What in the world?
Where are we going? [shrieks]
- Shut up. Are you serious? - No! Oh, my God!
Are you serious? Shut up.
- Oh, no. - What is wrong with her?
Are you serious?
No way that just happened.
- Riley! - Bro, I'm going home, bro.
If anyone finds my phone right here I'll pay you $1,000.
Oh, I'll swim down and grab that for a rack right now.
- Wait, actually? - [Bleep] yeah.
Are you kidding me? Shut the [bleep] up.
She said $1,000, so far be it for me
to not jump in a pool of water.
Yeah.
If this dude is diving into the water for $1,000,
I know me nor Hudson are getting our money back.
- It's super muddy. - At all.
- You're not gonna find it. - Wait, I feel like
I can find it.
Do you guys mind that I'm topless?
- This is bizarre. - Just borrow my shirt.
Oh, true. Riley, can you cover me with my bathrobe?
I'm gonna put on Charlie's shirt and dive for you.
I'm gonna get this for you, Riley, I'm gonna get this.
What the [bleep] is going on?
She just got butt naked.
It's gone. No shot.
I gotta say, the temperature feels amazing.
The cold is really helping.
- I'm glad I did this. - Honestly, I feel great.
Right?
Call Riley Burruss.
So embarrassing, bro.
It's going straight to voicemail.
[groans]
Go to Verizon or something if you have
insurance on your phone.
No, I have my second phone, but like...
- What? - It's not my first phone,
- though. - Oh, my God.
- Are you kidding? - You have two phones?
Yeah, that's the one that had good service.
[chuckling]
I've never seen a problem solved so quickly.
When I lost my phone, I used my laptop for a month.
Like, Riley loses her phone in the ocean and she has
a new one in five seconds.
Hey.
We were about to get on the boat,
you missed it, Riley's phone
bounces off the green thing into the water.
Swear to God. Yes.
Girl, this is why we use iCloud.
We are going back to the house.
- I'm coming with you. - Okay, come.
Wait, did anybody do the obstacle?
- Hey, stop it. - Let's do it.
At this point, my phone is already gone.
Let's do it! Let's do the obstacle.
- Wait, stop. - Go, go!
[excited shouting]
Girls, restart! [shrieking]
[playful rock music]
[chuckling]
[indistinct chatter]
Riley!
Riley, I don't know if this is your forte, girl.
- No, it is. - Riley! Get up, Riley.
Alright, babe. We gotta go home. Like, soon.
Very proud of myself.
Yeah, just do that, Riley. Let's go home.
[groans]
- Slutty-ish? - Yeah.
This is fully ready to go.
- I could put a stage in here. - Or a catwalk.
What's up with your man Charlie?
They all just went on a trip to the Jersey Shore
that I didn't go to 'cause I'm going
to a Dolce and Gabbana event. Brooks, it's his birthday.
- Oh, it was his birthday? - Yeah.
You know, I moved to New York with the intention
of really focusing on my career,
and so when I have opportunities
like, I have to take them.
So how did he take that?
He completely understood.
And he, you know,
is working and has his own business so he gets it.
Well this is a guarantee. When you get a bunch of friends
in the house, some leave as enemies.
Not always.
I mean if it's people that are hiding things from each other.
[sultry music]
What are you doing tonight?
Dinner at the house.
- Looks amazing. - Thank you so much
- for doing this. - Christian. Pleasure.
It's our friend Brooks' birthday.
We wanted to do a nice little Italian dinner.
We're doing a Jersey Shore theme.
- Love, love, love. - Oops.
[text chimes]
[rhythmic music]
Beautiful.
We look so ratchet.
We look like we're going to, like,
steal your credit card from your wallet.
[spraying]
Ow.
- I'm actually obsessed. - Am I giving Jersey?
This is so good.
Look at Riley saying nothing.
Look. Butthole's almost out. Whole thing. Whole thing.
Wait, should we call the police?
- Why? - 'Cause a hooker's
in the building?
'Cause I can't find her waist.
- Wait no. - It's happening.
- It's ----ing happening again. - No!
You say these nice things to me,
you say these nice things to me and I want to just
----ing hug you.
I'm giving Kim Kardashian or what? At the Met Gala?
'Cause that's what I'm trying to.
Literally.
- Can we go down and get drinks? - Yes!
[dialing]
- Hey. - Yo, yo.
Wait, I'm about to get in the shower. Can I call you back?
Yeah, I'm just smoking this pre-dinner Johnson
and like, it's a perfect time to talk.
Okay, well I'm gonna need to take a shower and call you back.
- Love ya. - Love you.
[tense music]
Coming up...
I was gonna throw a party next week at a bowling alley.
I'm gonna tell you a little piece of advice.
If you plan to serve food there,
I would just not comment on what the patrons are eating.
Ever. Like, I was so offended by that.
[upbeat music]
- You look good, man. - Oh!
- You look so good. - Thank you.
It's everything. It's everything.
- You look so cute. - Oh, my God, thank you.
Emira, you also look hot as [bleep].
Everyone looks so good.
Wow.
Look at that. That's cute.
Oh, my God, shut up. I'm so excited.
That's very cute. And the lights and everything.
That's very nice.
Aw, we're at Love Island.
- Anyway. - Yes.
- How are you? - I get, like, very emotional
when I get aggressive, in a sense.
- Me too. - I'm really sorry if I like,
came at you and attacked you.
Whispering across the table is rude as [bleep].
I'm sorry about that. In the moment I just
weirdly got triggered
and it was really just in the mix of every ----ing
thing else going on.
If I make a mistake or I jump too quickly to something,
like, I'm happy to apologize.
I think it's the healthy, right thing to do.
So I'll own up to apologizing.
I'm glad we can be mature about it.
I was just like, let's just have fun
and we can have this conversation.
Ariana's new to this city
and we haven't known each other too long,
but I think she has a really good heart
and she has good intentions.
She's not jaded like everyone else from New York.
She's, like, sweet and optimistic
and I'm just not used to that.
Yeah, I'm not gonna break her.
New York will do that.
That's why I feel like we also get along, 'cause we're
kids almost, and we had so much damn fun on the American
- Ninja Warrior course. - That was like the most fun
I've had in years. I'm not even kidding.
No, me too. And watching Riley
----ing bust her ass and fall
off the damn thing over and over-
Dude, that would've been on America's Funniest Home Videos
back in the day.
Alright, let's celebrate Brooks.
Let's get back in there, yay.
[rhythmic music]
Jersey Shore! [cheering]
Hi!
- Hello. - How are you?
Y'all look like you've been on the Jersey Shore too long.
Let's go get a meatball!
Beautiful. Aw, this is so nice.
Oh, my God, shut up.
It's so cute.
I love this.
You want Pinot Noir?
- Yes. - I love wine.
I'm so happy you came, Shai.
I'm so happy to be here, honestly.
Wait, why couldn't you come yesterday?
I had work. I work a 9-5 job.
- Like, you guys don't... - I get it. I get it.
- Kevy does. - I wake up at 7:00 am to work.
- Hello. - How's everybody doing?
We're going to start you off with a few appetizers.
Thank you so much.
We've got some crispy calamari
and there's heirloom tomato salad.
Oh, delicious. My mouth is watering.
Thank you so much.
[phone ringing]
Guys, say hi to Ava.
Hi! Where are you?
What are you doing, Ava? Why aren't you here?
[laughter]
Uhm, yeah. Like, there's so many things
that I get invited to all the time
that I try to pick and choose
what makes the most sense for me and my career.
Alright, yo, you're frozen as [bleep].
We love you so much, Brooks.
- Cheers to that. - We love you.
Happy birthday, Brooks.
[overlapping chatter]
This reminds me of Sunday dinner at my house.
Aww.
By the way, you guys, I kinda have a little mini announcement.
- You're pregnant? - Oh, god.
Fortunately, no.
I'm potentially opening a new venue.
- A new club in New York City. - Oh!
And the concept is a bowling alley club.
[music fizzles]
- Oh, fun. - Why bowling?
Because bowling is a great unifier.
Everyone loves bowling.
We're kinda in very early phases but I was gonna throw a party
next week at a bowling alley.
It's gonna be nothing like the club I'm planning.
I'm building from scratch my own space.
Imagine a Brutalist space and there's, like,
three to five lanes, cement with, like, purple...
Metal ass lanes... And also there's a separate room
with a dance floor. My mom loves bowling,
I love bowling... I literally have it in my head,
- like no joke. - Oh [bleep], I forgot
to respond to that email from my mom.
Like, I get it. Anyway...
I wonder if there are any sharks near this beach.
Maybe they're, like, already sleeping.
Do sharks even sleep?
And then, like... Why are you laughing?
The point is, I really want everyone's feedback.
Genuinely, I want your feedback.
Wait, so who's financially backing this?
Well, to be honest, Omar's gonna invest,
'cause he's been wanting to do a club for a while.
But I don't want to have him spend millions of dollars
and then everyone's like, "A bowling alley club?
That sucks!"
It doesn't sound like the world's greatest
idea, frankly.
It's a terrible idea. Horrible.
I'm just not the biggest bowler, personally, but like,
I'm sure there are people that would love to bowl and dance.
I guess. I don't know.
I mean, listen, it's obviously a risk.
If I could offer, hang on, though,
if I could offer you a little piece of advice
- in this business venture. - Please, go ahead.
Guys, this is what I told you guys about it for.
I'm gonna tell you a little piece of advice.
If you plan to serve food there,
I would just not comment on what your patrons are eating.
Ever.
Wait, what?
I think that should just be something
you just don't do, in general.
Wait, what do you mean?
Well, so, the other day when I'm upstairs
and I pulled that burger out of that Red Robin bag,
and you immediately made the comment like,
"Oh, my God, you're eating a burger?"
I was like, "Yeah, I haven't had any food all day."
- You go... - I was just confused 'cause
- we had a fridge full of food-- - No, hold on, hold on.
And you said, "Oh wow, your Ozempic must be wearing off."
- She did say that. - I'm sorry.
And you shouldn't say that to your friends.
Wait, Emira, you said let me offer you advi-
- Oh, I'm sorry. - Wait, I really didn't think
- anything of it. - I was so offended by that.
- Wait, really? - It actually really upset
- my feelings. - Oh, I'm sorry.
- I'm really sorry. - Yeah, that's why
I'm telling you now. Thank you. Apology accepted.
I just want you to know that moving forward
so you don't say that to any of your other friends
because some other people might not take that as well.
Okay, I didn't read it as, like, it was an offensive thing
and I understand why it was. I'm sorry.
Okay. Apology accepted.
But the idea for the food at the club
is that it's gonna be, in the 50s and 60s
there was literally like these, wait I wanna keep...
[chuckles] Wait, like, she doesn't care
if you're having food.
Yeah, I'm gonna be so real, I could care less
about the food in this place. I don't think I'd ever go.
"I don't think I'd ever go."
Basically, it's one of these things where you go up
with a cafeteria tray
and you tap your credit card and you pull your food.
It'll be like, a banana split.
Yeah.
I have to show you the visuals. I have to show you the visuals!
Georgia, please. Oh, my God.
I'm, like, kind of confused how we're just like
- moving right past it? - It's fine.
[overlapping chatter]
This is ridiculous.
Emira drops this bomb and Georgia has no clue
what she's talking about.
I think Georgia lives in Georgialand.
There's a river of chocolate milk
and there's a bowling alley
which is also a club
and along the way there's vending machines.
And that's Georgialand and Georgia lives there.
- Georgia. - What?
- Never mind. Sorry. - Okay.
Well Riley, you obviously now have to say it.
- Everyone's looking at you. - Well, as your friend,
all I'm gonna say is this is...
[high-pitched ringing]
...a terrible idea.
[dramatic music]
Georgia, please. Oh, my God.
- Georgia. - What?
All I'm gonna say is this is a terrible idea.
[dramatic music]
Riley...
I'm literally just sitting here.
I'm literally just talking.
Yeah, but you can give constructive criticism.
I'm sorry. I should not have said that.
- I really am sorry, Georgia. - No, I appreciate the feedback.
- My delivery is really bad. - Thank you. I appreciate it.
It was just, like, a little out of nowhere
- but I get what you're saying. - No, I'm sorry.
I'm letting you know that I'm really apologizing.
You're fine, you're fine. We all say dumb sh--.
That's it. That was just a dumb way to phrase it.
What did I say that was dumb, though?
Riley, it was just rude, babe.
You said, "That's a terrible idea."
To somebody who's starting a new business.
You're right. You're right. I should've said it differently.
I would've gotten pissed.
- I'm working on it. - I think when you get
a little tipsy, you get a little rough.
Wait, hold on, when she's sober, she acts the same.
She will tell somebody exactly how it is.
Yes, but I don't think it's as triggered as easily.
I definitely think that no matter what I do,
somehow Gia always kind of has an issue with me.
The poor kid, he's sitting at dinner.
Shut the [bleep] up.
Okay, pause. "This poor kid"?
He's 29! Who gives a [bleep]?
You can listen.
I'm just saying, like,
I see her sober,
I see her when she's drunk,
I see where the switch can flip a little bit,
is what I'm just saying.
And I'm just saying that to help her.
Please.
- Wait. - Mm-mm.
Okay.
This is absurd! No, you guys are like, this is absurd!
Like, sorry, she's been drinking this entire weekend.
I have to say it at some point.
And has everybody at this table not been doing
that the entire weekend, though?
Yes, but Ariana.
What? You said she's been drinking.
I'm not pinpointing her.
Gia is my girl, but sometimes,
it's like, okay, just shut the [bleep] up, Gia.
We don't need to say that or address that.
Everyone can vouch that she's nasty
when she drinks a little bit.
She comes in like mom.
Like, everybody's drinking.
How's your glass of wine, Gia?
Hey, what's going on? You okay?
I'm not crying 'cause I'm sad,
I'm crying 'cause I'm mad.
I know you're crying 'cause you're mad.
What happened in that conversation?
Gia was saying that when I drink, I get harsh.
And I said, "No, I just..."
I feel like everyone gets harsh when they drink.
Yeah. And then they keep going on.
It's like, I sit there and I said, "Mm-hmm."
- Mm-hmm, I know. - What the [bleep] do you want
- me to say? - No, I understand.
I'm definitely confused
as to why the message is coming from Gia.
We're both harsh, quote un-quote, in our own ways
and so for her to be able to say things
she does and me not to be able to,
I just feel like there's a big double standard.
I was talking to her very, very, very carefully
because it is like walking around eggshells around her.
You don't know what you're gonna get.
Whenever I feel like people who I knew
are gonna feel sensitive, I try to shut my mouth but...
No, they're egging you on.
- They're pushing you. - Yes, exactly.
My perspective, I came for this dinner
for Brooks' birthday and people are freaking about a joke.
Oh yeah, let's focus on Brooks.
I'm not trying to come at you.
I get it, you're gonna defend her.
I cannot do this sh--.
What would my mom do?
I should've just gone to Bali with her.
I think we should just go back in there and be like,
"Alright y'all, it was a misunderstanding.
Georgia, let's go bowl sometime."
But it's not Georgia. It's Gia.
Just say, "Gia, what's up?" That's it.
Yeah. Okay, so I'm going in and I'm saying...
I'll be Gia. Hi, Christian.
- You know what? I think that-- - Oh, Riley. Hi.
[chuckles] Stop.
- Redo. - Okay, okay.
Christian, hi.
- Okay. - I'm doing...
Keep going.
Oh, Riley, you're back.
No. Restart.
What'd you say, Christian?
- You know what? I think- - Oh, hi, Riley.
Yes, you had something to say?
[laughing]
- What are you laughing about? - Stop.
I'm enjoying my Sunday sauce.
[chuckles] Let's go. Let's go.
You got it down.
What about the ice cream cake? Is that up for grabs?
[smoke alarm beeping] Is that our house?
The worst spot we could have possibly done this.
This is my favourite place in the whole world.
Shai, what the [bleep] are you doing?
Oh, I needed this.
Happy birthday dear Brooks!
No way!
[shrieks]
Happy birthday to you!
We're good, we're good, we're good, we're good.
Oh, my God it's so good. This is the best cake ever.
Make a wish!
[laughter] Harder!
- Woo! - Yay.
Sorry, I think it got too heated
and I feel like we should just, you know,
have a great night and everything.
- It's okay. Yeah. Okay. - Happy birthday, Brooks.
Thank you, Shai.
I missed the cake?
[tense music]
You walked out while we were doing it.
Oh, awkward.
Coming up...
- Girl, are you dumb? - That's what you just said!
- Don't say I'm dumb. - I didn't say. I asked you.
Riley, just because you say something-
Ariana, no. Ariana, please.
[upbeat music]
Brooks is in his silk pyjamas.
We should all do a shot.
I'm tired. I think I'm gonna go to bed.
Wait, Georgia.
I'm really sorry, I should not have said it like that.
I should've done something more positive.
I'm not good with delivery
and I know that, and I'm trying to work on it.
That's why I didn't really take offence.
I asked for feedback.
I don't think it matters. It's over.
I'm just confused why it's such a big deal
that we're fighting about your club.
We've been dissecting the most privileged argument.
Wait, privileged? I literally have no...
I have $4,000 in my bank account.
Privilege? I literally worked for this for four ----ing years.
We're sitting in a nice ass house for Brooks Marks'
birthday party and we're arguing about who's opening a club.
Privilege means my daddy gave me a million dollars.
No, it doesn't. No, it doesn't.
If you're sitting in a house in the Jersey Shore
enjoying a meal from a private chef, like,
that's pretty privileged.
Definition of privilege just means basically
you have it better than others.
We're all privileged in a way.
Just acknowledge it is privileged to say,
"Oh, my boyfriend is investing in me."
Like, that is privilege. Like, period.
Do your thing, but that is.
Like, no one's shading you for that.
I literally ----ing manifested a rich boyfriend
that I didn't even expect out of nowhere?
- Girl... - I had no intention.
I'm sorry, that is absurd. Wait.
I don't know a ton about Riley.
I do know she comes from a legacy
of being in the music industry.
For her to say, "Oh, every opportunity you have
and everything you get to do is because of Omar,"
is kind of insane.
You are a 24-year-old
that is about to open a club.
Like, that is privileged.
Who is 24 years old in New York and can open...
Because I worked my ass off for ----ing years
- to get to this point. - No one said you didn't,
- Georgia. - But it's literally
invalidating everything I've done.
Oh, my God. First of all, Why are you coming at me
'cause I honestly don't care, but like, I can go back
and forth with you-- - You saying, "Oh,
- you're privileged," like... Girl, I'm not the one
that said that to you.
[tense music]
Shai was saying it more, like, generally.
- You're making it personal. - I'm trying to describe
it to you.
This is absurd in the ----ing kitchen. I can't.
What's happening in the kitchen?
- Oh, lord. - I said the word privilege
and now it's just...
Oh, you [bleeped] up bad.
You really [bleeped] up bad.
I don't want any part of that.
We're staying here for the rest of the night.
You are making it so personal.
Shai, now you just, like, I can't.
Because I'm privileged. That's what she's saying.
- Girl. Are you dumb? - That's what you just said!
What do you mean, am I dumb? Don't say I'm dumb.
I didn't say, I asked you. Please stop.
Like, actually.
- You're literally saying... - I didn't say sh-- to you,
Georgia. I explained everything.
Shai is the one that said something. Yeah, laugh, bitch.
'Cause you're dumb.
[dramatic music]
Are you serious? That's literally
what Charlie said to me.
Well, you are, but I didn't mean to say that.
But dumb bitch? Are you serious?
Riley, I love you more than anything,
but just because you say something-
Ariana, no. Ariana, please.
But if you say something out of pocket
and you come back with, "I shouldn't have said that."
It still was said, girl.
I'm just confused.
I thought Ariana would have my back.
I just don't understand, like, what's going on
'cause I thought Ariana and Georgia weren't cool.
- Are you okay? - Yeah, no, no, I'm fine.
It's fine. Don't worry about it.
Oh, my God.
Ew. It's by my feet. I'm stuck.
Next time on the season finale of Next Gen NYC.
We're asking where the [bleep] you were
when we were all on our trip to Jersey.
Is this drama circle about me right now?
I don't want you to resent me for leaving you.
What is attachment issues?
I don't know you. I just know what you said,
and language like that, it was obviously wrong.
This is so ----ing messy.
- What? - Oh, my God.
That's crazy.
Did she post a TikTok about this?
I love being messy.
