My youngest son, Sean, has a baby.
-Stop it. -So, I might be a glam-ma.
[Brandi] It sucks that people always attack me with my man.
We've all lived our lives in the public,
and it's not easy.
Y'all had one date. Right?
We had a weekend. We did set a wedding date.
Brooke, babe...
Kevin and I, I really feel like we may be onto something.
[Jennifer] There's a lot of looming issues,
and I just feel like Jackie has never really been forthcoming.
[Jackie] Stop with the jealousy, stop with the lies,
and go ahead and tell me you just wanna be me.
I'm speaking, Jen.
-No, I'ma get up and walk out. -[Jennifer] No, she...
-Actually, she was. -Well, walk out!
-I ain't got it. -[Woman] Jackie...
-I ain't got it, baby. -[Woman] It's not fair!
I have been on the phone,
hearing Jackie on three-way call on mute.
She absolutely hates Evelyn.
She can't understand why you're here,
unless you're gonna have a baby.
Wow.
She went after the thing that I can't have.

-Hey, how you doin'? -I'm good, what is this?
We're just setting up right now.
This look like a circus venue. What the...?
No, I'm just kidding.
[Jackie] I had to leave the parlay early
because the women and their toxicity
is just not for me.
That nonsense, they can keep.
Right now, my focus is my talk show.
I'm definitely gonna go with you, James, and you, Maki.
My new interns, James and Maki, have been great.
They've done what I've asked them
and over-impressed me.
So, last night I was comin' up with
some different ideas for the segment,
and one should be definitely a ponderosa.
That's what you goin' for.
I love it.
Baby, I been doin' it all.
Production meetings, set designs, scoutin' locations.
You said that bar could stay and,
and there could be drinks during.
-I'm doing it right now, so... -[Jackie] I love it.
Well, give me somethin'.
Today, I'm auditioning for my emcee and my hype man.
What my goal is is more or less than feel them out.
They're bein' put in the hot seat, basically.
I'm praying that in this group of people,
I find what I need.
Wow, we got a full room.
[Maki] Hey, everyone. Hi.
So, thank you for takin' the time to come out.
We're gonna move directly into our hype man position.
So, you guys get it started.
Now, you guys is competin' against each other,
-so, these are the guests. -Alright.
You hype 'em up, first.
Hey, y'all, how y'all feelin' today?
[cheering]
[Man] Okay, good to see you.
So, today, you know, we are goin' on
The Jackie Christie Show,
and it's gon' be a vibe.
And we gon' do what we gotta do.
[music winding down]
[Shy] When I say "Jackie", y'all say "Christie"!
-Jackie! -[Crowd] Christie!
-[Shy] Jackie! -[Crowd] Christie!
Do your do.
I like it.
-[James] Hey. -Now come on, y'all.
[Man] Okay, look, we got a special surprise.
Y'all wanna know who's back there?

[Woman] Michael B.! Michael B.!
[Jackie] Thank you guys, thank you guys for coming,
we got some amazing guests.
Michael B. Jordan, and we got Denzel Washington.
Listen, J, who, who we talkin' about?
Today, Jackie Christie is givin' away a new car!
Yes, oh my God! Yes, yes, thank you.
I am inchin' closer and closer to the airwaves,
and I know these ladies is always doubtin' me,
and they think, "Oh, Jackie starts this,
and Jackie does that."
Jackie always gets what Jackie wants.
Can I get a picture with all of you guys?
I always win in the end.
Jackie Christie!

[uplifting music]
-[Evelyn] Hello. -Hi, how are you?
-[Belle] I'm Belle. -Hi.
-I'm Belle.
-Brandi, nice to meet you. -Nice to meet you.
[Belle] Are you looking to get your aura portrait
-done today? -Yes.
I saw this on Instagram, and I was like,
"Wow, this would be super cool."
I felt the need to invite Brandi to hang out with me one on one
just to kind of just bond a little bit with her.
So, basically, you put your hands on
-these hand sensors... -[Brandi] Okay.
That detect your magnetic energy.
Your magnetic energy is
-translated into colors. -[Brandi] Okay.
[Belle] And then we give you a little interpretation
of what those colors mean.
I think this is kinda strange that we're having a aura reading
and this is our first outing after
the Pilates class that we took together.
But maybe this is her trying to, like, figure me out
and try to understand me.
I don't know, but I don't mind it.
[Belle] Put your palms on, and...
[futuristic noise]
Go ahead and bring your heads a little closer in together.
Perfect.
[futuristic noise]
Alright, so, it takes a few minutes
for the film to develop, so, if you guys wanna
-hang out here... -[Brandi] Okay.
And then I'll be right out to give you your readings.
-[Brandi] Okay, cool. -[Evelyn] Okay.
-Oh my God. -[Evelyn] I can't wait
-to see it. -I know, I'm nervous.
[Evelyn] I know, right?
I'm like, "What color is mine gonna be?"
After the Pilates, I appreciate you being just so open.
When you were askin' me questions about my husband,
I don't know what it was.
-You know? -Right.
-[Brandi] I don't know. -My aura.
-It is your aura. -Right.
In my marriage, I have caught him cheating twice.
And so, on the second time, I left him.
It was not easy.
Like, do we trust him now?
I just trust that he values me as his wife,
and if he doesn't, he's gonna get the [bleep] out.
It didn't feel good when I caught Jason cheating,
and I will not revisit that.
Seeing women like Evelyn, who is a single parent,
and seeing that it works,
it does give me confidence.
So, if I have to take that length, I will do it.
Yeah. Hi!
We got your aura portraits ready.
-Oh, no. -So, this is your guys's
relationship portrait.
It's lots of fun.
You have this magenta/violet energy,
so that shows a spiritual agreement.
-Mm. -[Belle] So, you guys have
come across each other in past lives,
and you guys have some karmic lessons
to resolve together.
So, you signed up to handle it in this lifetime.
You know?
-Thank you. -Thank you.
That was so cool!
We are a force when we're together.
Yes.
Listen, after that parlay,
I feel like I need to get baptized.
All of us. I expected more from Jackie.
Yeah, I can't wrap my head around that type of behavior.
I would never talk about you not bein' able to have more children
because of the health issues that you had.
I don't really talk that much about that situation,
because I feel like people always use that
as a weapon to hurt me when they're mad,
and I think that's what Jackie did.
-Right. -[Brandi] You know?
Someone's gonna weaponize it
-against you. -[Brandi] Yes,
and the way that she was able to talk [bleep],
like, "Girl, you really are an evil [bleep] bitch."

-She said, "Let me ride that." -[Brooke] She is, she is
a alpha female like her mama.
[Jennifer] Romy's like, "Now wait a minute."
[Brooke] Right! Look at this!
How you been?
Honestly, after that parlay,
-my brain... -Mm-hm.
-Was fried. -[Brooke] Right.
The things that she has said about all of us
are so hurtful and nasty.
-Yeah. -[Jennifer] You know?
I'm like, "Damn, like, this lady is in my movie?"
But at this point, I don't care.
I'm not inviting her to my movie screening
or my wedding.
-[Brooke] Yeah. -It is what it is.
Like, I'm done.
Yeah, same.
-Look at them! -I know.
-I love it. -They love to see each other.
Remind me of me and my man.
Oh my God.
I cannot wait to meet him.
[Brooke] Like, I'm excited that he's gon' meet you guys,
he's gon' meet my family, everything at the same time.
My family is throwing a '80s/'90s party,
because we love a good backyard boogie.
And Kevin is comin' from Baltimore,
so I'm thinkin' that this might be the perfect time
for me to introduce Kevin to my family and friends.
-He's very confident, you know? -[Jennifer] Yeah.
And secure, and he's like, "I'm ready."
Yeah, that's how Christian is.
He's just very confident in who he is.
You know, at first I was like, "Jen movin' so fast."
But now it's like,
-I get it. -It actually wasn't fast.
Jen, you guys did move fast.
-But... -[Brooke] Kinda fast.
We got engaged at nine months.
I'm not engaged yet.
Y'all talkin' about gettin' married.
Brooke met Kevin,
and in a couple weeks, they had a wedding date.
That's so not my story.
I got engaged nine months after meeting Christian,
so we did not move fast.
You moved way faster than me.
Well, you know, when it's right, it's right.
[laughter]
[laidback R&B music]
[phone dialing]
[Brandi] Oh, where you goin'?
I'm coming to a city near you.
Ooh! Girl.
I'm comin' to LA.
You are?
[Brandi] Shaunie and I have come a long way.
That's my girl.
You know I still praise you with all this stuff with baby Jason.
Like, you really saved our lives!
No, don't say that.
Shaunie's son had gone through a heart surgery,
and she ends up telling me the condition that her son had,
and I was like, "Oh my gosh, that's what baby Jason has."
Did you worry with your son
when he started playin' basketball and stuff?
Oh, yeah. I still get worried.
[Brandi] She led me in the right direction
to help save my son,
and I'm forever grateful for her for that.
And it worked out.
[Shaunie] That doctor did his thing.
He did his thing.
But girl, in other news, I need your help.
I have tried to talk to Jackie, and it's not working.
-Why, what's the problem? -[Brandi] She's...
Like, you and her are havin' issues?
Okay, Jennifer had a parlay for all of us to sit down
and have a conversation.
Girl, she wasn't there but ten minutes.
I really do feel let down with Jackie.
For her to say, oh, I'm only interesting if
I have another baby,
bitch, first of all, you know I can't have no more kids.
To hear that, it hurts me.
She's just not wanting to interact.
I have literally tried to make it work with her in the group,
and I just don't know how to get through to her.
Okay, well, I haven't talked to Jackie in I don't know how lon,
but last I checked, we were okay.
So, I don't have a problem chatting with her.
Maybe she'll tell me what's goin' on.
Yeah, that's the only way that we can move forward.

[Brooke] Y'all, listen, I wanna introduce you guys
-to my son, Sean. -Who is this?
-[Ladies] Hi! -[Brooke] This is my twin.
This is my youngest baby.
Now that Sean decided to show up to the '80s/'90s party,
that definitely lifted my spirits,
since Kevin decided to bail.
Even though we're at a party,
I think now is the best time to get more information
about my potential glam baby.
It's family here, and everybody wants answers.
[Jac'eil] Let's go get some drinks.
Oh, don't give her too much.
[Brooke] You havin' a good day?
-Yeah. -[Brooke] Okay, good.
Now, I have been tryin' to get information about
my possible grandchild,
your possible great-grandchild.
And I asked you straight-up, like,
"How come the baby doesn't have your last name,
and did you do a DNA test?"
And you did a DNA test, and the DNA test came back
-positive. -Mm-hm.
So, they just told you it was positive,
or did you see the paperwork?
[Brooke] So, you didn't see nothin'?
The DNA test is negative? What?
-[Brooke] Are you sure? -Negative.
[Brooke] Let me see it.
So, how do you know it was negative?
'Cause you told me it was positive before.
So, then, why would you tell us it was positive?
I'm really confused with where Sean is goin' with this.
When I first heard the news,
'course, I immediately call him.
I asked him if he did a DNA test,
he said, "Yes, and it came out positive."
Now he's tellin' me the DNA test comes back negative.
So, my emotions are all over the place,
my head is all over the place,
and I really don't know how to feel.
-Wait, can I ask you a question? -What, yeah.
-Can we get the girl's number? -[Sean] Yeah.
Wait, we gonna take a picture. No, let's take a picture.
[Man] Damn, Shanti quick.
Wait, hold on.
[Evelyn] I'm tryin' to be there for Brooke as much as I can.
I tried doin' some digging.
This potential baby mom has, like, zero footprint online.
So, the only thing that I could come up with was,
"Let's try to get her phone number
and try to dig into her a little bit more."
It's really, like, a sweet and a sad situation.
-Yeah, I get it. -[Brooke] All at the same time.
He's really sweet.
He is, that's my baby. I appreciate it, I love you.
-Thank you. -Yeah, of course.
I love you, too.

-[Brooke] This my brother. -How you doin'?
[Brooke] This is my son, Sean.
Kevin look like a little Milk Dud.
Kevin wouldn't have showed up, I'm sure, Brooke woulda had him
in a dog house outside with no food and water.
Let's inch our way over there.
[Brooke] Okay, my bad.
So, don't do that.
I was tryin' to get my balance.
Okay, I need to have a conversation with the person
that is stealing my time in the morning.
That's you, Brooke.
Now, she'll give me, like, ten seconds,
be like, "I'll call you back."
[Karen] Yeah.
So, wait, hold on.
I have to take the floor for one second.
-Hi. -[Karen] Oh, Lord.
What are you about to say, Jen?
[Jennifer] No, it's all positive.
We really want the best for Brooke,
and we love that you're putting a smile on her face.

Yes, me, too.

I'm already drunk.

there was a lot said.
-It's good to see you. -How are you?
How are you?
[Jackie] Brandi should be comin' in neutral.
I'm hopin' that we can get a clear understanding,
first and foremost, of where do we stand,
and also, how do we move forward.
You feelin' good? Well, you lookin' good.
You always do, though, bitch. What?
Oh, God. So, how you been?
Girl, doin' my thing, bein' Jackie Christie.
What's up?
What do you mean?
[Brandi] You came to the parlay, and when you left,
Brooke shared with me the whole recording
that Sundy had of stuff that you had...
I'm not talkin' about Sundy.
I'm blown away that Sundy was a person that
I considered a friend for a decade.
And we were talking, she decided she wanted to
record the conversations and share them with the ladies.
And I think she really would love to see me fail.
Jackie, I have literally tried everything that I possibly can
to get you to be a part of the group.
-First of all, I am the group. -[Brandi] To be involved..
-So, let's be clear. -Can, can I finish?
Like, Jackie, I really love you, but I don't know what to do!
[Jackie] I'm not talkin' about Sundy.
-No, no, no, no. -[Brandi] That is not fair
that you do not allow anybody to say anything!
I'm at a point... Jackie can't do it.
You can't do what?!
You're gonna get up and walk away?!
I am, I'm goin' to see my husband, I'm going to the game.
-I love you. -Well I actually invited someone
-to try to help us. -[Jackie] Oh, good.
[intense music]
-Hey, how are you, Shaunie? -[Shaunie] I'm good.
Come right on in, Mama. Give me a hug.
I sure will.
I feel like Shaunie bein' here is an ambush, so to speak.
If that was their attempt, failure, y'all.
Let me show you how to ambush somebody.
I'm the master at that.
So, Brandi decided to have you come to do what, mediate?
Well, she's struggling with you and the whole group.
Like, you leave and you're not allowing conversation to happen.
So, I was like, "Yeah, I'll talk to her."
Like, I didn't know anything to be off with us.
But since that conversation,
I was sent several recordings of you talkin' horribly of me.
There is an hour of audio of her talkin' [bleep].
So, I'm just givin' you bits and pieces.
You're a lunatic.
I don't even know what to say to that.
You said I was a narcissist, I'm wild, I'm mean...
You're wild? I wish you was wild.
But you ain't.
What have I done to make you have the level of hatred
you have for me?
I felt like me and you had an understanding
-and a friendship... -Mm-hm.
[Jackie] That was separate from the other women.
But before the reunion,
when all that stuff started with Evelyn and Brooke,
and I felt like it was aligning yourself with the bull[bleep]
that them women were already doing.
All the conversations we had, you've never mentioned this.
No, and I probably should've.
But you know what I kept
-hopin' for, Shaunie? -[Shaunie] Yeah.
-What? -[Jackie] I kept thinking,
"Me and Shaunie's relationship, it'll get past it."
I'm always on good terms with Shaunie.
We have our ups and downs, but that's my girl.
I'm glad hard conversations are happening,
and I said what I said
because I had a right to feel the way I felt.
I don't tell anybody else how to feel, it is what it is.
But the point is this: I apologize.
I receive and accept your apology,
because I'm gonna do the right thing.
I'ma be very honest,
I probably will never trust you again.
I have never betrayed you,
-Jackie Christie. -I beg to differ.
You have yet to tell me how I have.
Have I said mean things about all of you women?
I have.
Do I apologize for some of the angry things?
Absolutely, 'cause I'm human.
You're still not holding yourself accountable.
You're saying certain things that you're holding yourself
accountable for.
But we all know you shared hurtful things
about me and Shaunie.
How much you hate Evelyn, all these things about Brooke.
-Stop it! -[Shaunie] Here we go.
You said that, "You're using your dead daughter
to make money!"
You don't give a [bleep] about her!
I didn't say I didn't give a [bleep] about her.
I said I don't give a super [bleep]
about Brooke and her [bleep].
-[Shaunie] Oh my God. -Well, okay, you said
what you said, and that's cool.
Because you said some [bleep] about me,
and about my lack of ability to have children
and all this other stuff.
And there's a lot of things I could say about you.
I could talk about Doug, Doug be cheatin' on you.
But I don't do that because I have respect for you!
-[Jackie] Brandi... -And you don't have respect
-for no one else. -And I have respect
-for you. -And I really just don't wanna
-sit here in this heat. -You know as well as I know--
-In this beautiful dress... -We're not at ease outdoors.
[Brandi] And talk to you about this.
Shaunie, I love you, I can't.
-[Jackie] So, any... -That's what's happening.
-[Jackie] Listen. -One by one.
I've had it with all of this.
I'm not doing any more favors, I'm not going out of my way,
because I don't think that she likes anyone in this group.
I don't even think she likes herself.
Well, Jackie, there's a lot of hurt ladies,
and I think in order for the group collectively
to move forward in a healthy way,
you're gonna have to talk to the ladies.

[Karen] Did I tell you this?
When she was five, she was five years old,
she looked at me and she says, "So, Mom, babies come from sex?"
I said, "Yeah," she said, "So, you had sex?"
I said, "Only two times."
Only two times!
For me and my brother!
[Evelyn] That is too funny.
I'm so happy Kevin came to the '80s/'90s party.
-It was nice! -[Evelyn] Yeah.
[Brooke] But everything's just been moving fast,
and he's, like, you know, offered, like,
he'll take care of me and, you know,
I can be a housewife.
But I'm just now gettin' to the stage of
havin' my own independence, and that feels good.
Like, give it time, let it breathe,
and you can decide five years from now,
"Okay, I'm ready to be a housewife.
-I'm tired of hustlin'." -Right, yeah.
-[Evelyn] You know what I mean? -[Karen] Right.
I don't know if I could say that I'm team Brooke and Kevin.
But if it's something that makes her happy,
then I'm always gonna support her.
[Brooke] Speakin' of boys, you know,
Sean told me that the DNA test is negative.
With this whole possible glam baby of mine.
[Evelyn] But at the party, I saw in his phone,
he had her on the BM, which we all know is baby mama.
[Brooke] Right.
I invited him to come over, so...
-Good. -We could have a conversation
-with him, and... -Yeah.
You think we could call her?
I'm open to calling her.
'Cause I feel like you gotta chip at this a little bit.
-You know? -Yeah.
-Especially with him, too. -[Evelyn] Yeah.
'-Cause... -He's comin'.
Uh-oh.
-Sean, is that you? -Yeah.
How you doin'?
-[Sean] I'm good. -[Brooke] Mm.
It's definitely difficult
to get straight answers out of Sean.
But that's my child,
so if anyone knows that there's more to this story, it's me.
When I first got the information
about you possibly having a child,
you told me two different stories.
Was the DNA test originally positive or negative?
Positive the first time. Negative the second time.
[Karen] This is just not makin' any sense to me.
[Brooke] Well...
This is, like, a little bit of a different of a story
than what I was expecting.
So, I'ma just call her.
It's okay.
[Brooke] How are you? This is Sean's mom.
I've just really kind of just been searchin' for the truth.
So, is Sean the father?
[tense music]
[Brooke] This is Sean's mom.
I've just been searchin' for the truth.
Is Sean the father?
[tense music]
And you know that 100%, right?
Okay.
She gave me confirmation that Sean is not that father.
Uh-huh, buh-bye.
The truth shall set you free.
A part of me is happy,
because he's definitely not ready to be a parent.
And another part of me is a little sad,
because as a glam-ma,
I would definitely pick up the slack.
Was that so hard?
Gonna be honest, I just want one.
-[Brooke] What, you want a baby? -Yeah.
-Okay, but listen... -Because I miss my sister.
Okay, we all miss her, but the baby's not gonna...
-I know. -Take the place of Kayla, okay?
Yeah, but I wanted, I wanted to name my baby Kayla.
[emotional music]
I can't handle the, um, the up and down rollercoaster.
That's a lot.
[emotional music]
And as much as we all miss Kayla,
we can't use her to justify a lot of your actions.
I'm not tryin' to use her, I just wish, like,
I could feel her.
But no one can, do, do, you understand that?
[Sean] Yeah.
Now that I have the truth and I see what's goin' on,
I feel like my family definitely needs to continue to heal.
Everyone is in their own stage of grief.
So, all I can do is try to lead by example.
[emotional music]
I love you, okay?
[Sean] I love you too, Mom.
[somber music]
[upbeat music]
Okay, guys, you ready?
-[James] Yup. -[Maki] Yeah.
Okay, let's do it.
Everybody, get on your feet, stand up!
Because the queen has come in! Jackie Christie!
Oh my God, my heart is beating through my chest, you guys.
First of all, welcome to the show.
[Jackie] After sitting down with Shaunie and Brandi,
I feel like I gotta focus on my talk show.
And then I'm gonna sit down, right?
Then, nope, we gon' go straight into our first segment.
I am so excited, I found my people.
My Emcee and my hype man, Shy and J'Lamar,
and I hired Sergio, a known Hollywood stylist.
Alright, we gon' have you fitted like the first lady.
Yeah!
-Yeah, yeah. -I like this one.
You get my style.
Now what are we doin'?
[Woman] Yes.
[Jackie] This is the final walk through,
I need to make sure everybody's up for the task.
And I really hope that my team
can make this dream of mine a reality.
[Shy] Now, Ashanti done posted on her Instagram account
-that she is pregnant! -I know!
And guess who it's by?
Tell me!
None other than Nelly!
And then we leave.
And then we leave, we go on our little break,
our little three-minute break.
I don't know what's goin' on right now.
I need to see what's next on that board.
I have an amazing guest.
We got Denzel Washington in the house.
Everybody, everybody!
Denzel!
Thank you for coming!
All right, Nelly!
Yes!
A little side note.
I will need you, actually, on this side
-and your guest on that side. -Okay, okay.
That way it can be easier
-to go to him. -Okay.
[Jackie] I have so much to lose with this talk show,
because I'm gonna be messed up with my confidence
if it doesn't work.
That was okay, and to most people, would've been okay.
But it's, like, a 2 on a 20 scale for me.
-[Maki] I agree, yeah. -I need to get my [bleep]
really together, 'cause I'm scared to death now.
My rehearsal is blowing me away, and not in a good way.
I need it to be perfect.
-It could be good. -[Shy] Yeah.
But the hype ain't what's gon' make people say,
-"We wanna buy her show." -[Shy] Right.
If we don't get these kinks worked out,
we got a problem.
-It needs to be... -It needs to look tight.
There it is, it gotta be tightened the [bleep] up.
[Female Narrator] Coming up on Basketball Wives.
I'm here to talk to you!
You want me to clear it up, I will!
Actually, I don't need you to clear up [bleep]!
-'Cause I hear it! -Don't talk to me about it!
[Brooke] I'ma say what the [bleep] I wanna say!
Well then, I'ma say what the [bleep] I wanna say!
-Good, say it, bitch! -Good, I am, bitch!
[Brooke] You been sayin' it!

-[Shaunie] Hi. -[Evelyn] Hi.
Hi.
You look cute and warm.
Shaunie was able to get Jackie to agree to meet with the group.
So, we are coming together for the Shaunie-rosa.
[laidback music]
We have tried this before.
And even though it's Shaunie helping,
you're dealing with Jackie.
So, I honestly don't know how it's gonna go.
♪ I step into the arena and I own the floor ♪
I'm tired of going down this road.
I'm literally at a dead end.
Yes, I feel a way, you're sendin' my nudes around.
I'm kinda just over it.
[upbeat music]
♪ Bring it, got that energy ♪
My wedding is two weeks away,
and I just hope we really get things resolved today.
Because I have more [bleep] to deal with
than to be goin' back and forth with this group.
♪ I'm applyin' pressure ♪
[Brooke] I have absolutely no expectations from Jackie
because I have kicked my own self in the ass before
from having any type of expectations from her,
and that didn't go well.
Hi! Ooh, you are bright.
[Jennifer] Gotta be bright!
Had to bring some color into my life.
[Evelyn] Gotta be bright!
♪ I'm a big deal ♪
Walking into this luncheon that Shaunie's havin',
I do have some trepidation.
These women, ain't no tellin' what they gonna try to do, say.
I'm comin' with love. We'll see how it goes.
Oh, well, there she is.
-Hello. -[Jackie] Hello.
[Shaunie] How are you today?
-[Jackie] I am good. -Awesome.
[tense music]
So, Brandi could not be here?
Yeah, she said what she needed to say.
-Okay. -[Brooke] Um,
when you guys all met.
And Jackie, I know that it has been said,
you keep leaving.
Yeah, I'm not goin' nowhere.
Okay, you promise to sit through it?
I hope that today, we can have an open dialogue.
I'm not here to bash anybody, I'm not here to yell and scream.
I'm here to take accountability for my part in
all of this bull[bleep].
When I talked to Sundy,
did I vent to her how I felt about a lot of things?
Yes, I did.
Whatever you guys heard, it came out of my mouth,
there wasn't a ventriloquist there.
-I wanna know, like... -[Jackie] Okay.
Why were my nudes that happened definitely over a decade ago,
why is that a topic of conversation?
[Jackie] I don't even know you had any nudes.
When I saw 'em...
-[Jennifer] You sent 'em! -Wait, wait!
No, I didn't. She sent 'em to me.
But hold on, hold on!
[Brooke] Right here, Jackie sent your nudes to her,
and sent this picture of me, if you would like to show her.
-Okay, okay, there was no... -[Brooke] Oh my God.
Did you see me doin' anything with those [bleep] nudes?
That's classy as [bleep] being on it.
[Jackie] We were just two girlfriends
doin' what girlfriends do,
like what me and you used to talk on the phone.
-[Brooke] We don't do that. -I can't even finish.
-Evelyn, go ahead. -[Evelyn] Yes.
I'm just tryin' to get clarity of why you wanna slap me.
[Jackie] I have a lot of good times with you, Evelyn.
I don't wanna slap you.
You remember that weight loss thing.
[Female Trainer] You're first gonna go down and up for 20.
-Yup, 'cause you still fat. -Same old you, it wasn't...
Now, see? That's disrespectful.
That's disrespectful, because you don't see,
you don't see anything fat about this.
-I got a fat ass. -[Evelyn] No, 'cause you got,
'cause you got it tied up, honey.
-Where, you see this, bitch? -[Evelyn] Yeah, yeah.
I ain't fat, but you are.
Your arms is kinda chunky, they look like turkey legs.
It's okay, though. It's okay, though.
But I dont got that brace.
That's big as [bleep], but see, I ain't sayin' that.
-But hey. -[Jackie] Exactly,
-and I'm fine as [bleep]. -I don't got it.
She's been on this bull[bleep] journey of,
"Oh my God, I've been tryin' to lose weight."
So, my point in bringin' that up was that,
"Girl, you lie literally about everything."
So, why did you say you hate me?
Listen, everything that you guys have heard on the recordings,
Jackie Christie has said.
We know, 'cause we have you recorded.
[Jackie] Okay, you have the recording.
That's why you're admitting it.
Okay, are you done?
'Cause I wanna make sure you're clear.
Are you finished so I can answer?
-I'm finished with that part. -[Jackie] 'Kay.
Now, here's the situation.
Why do you want me to keep bein' in conversations with you
-about Kayla? -I don't!
-[Jackie] Okay, why do you...? -You went to the media!
Because you went into the media!
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. I'm here to talk to you.
You want me to clear it up, I will!
Actually, I don't need you to clear up [bleep]!
-'Cause I hear it! -Don't talk to me about it!
[Brooke] I'ma say what the [bleep] I wanna say!
Well, then I'ma say what the [bleep] I wanna say!
-Good, say it, bitch! -Good, I am, bitch!
[Brooke] You been saying it!
You're yellin' and screamin' like an idiot.
You are an idiot!
-[Jackie] Girl, bye. -You [bleep] seen the screenshot
-that say they... -[Jackie] Girl, bye.
-Brooke having a dead daughter! -[Jackie] Girl, bye.
We're all used to the wacky Jackie,
and Jackie just sayin' some [bleep] off the wall.
But now, it's more like, you tryin' to, like, cut people.
Baby, look at all the screenshots that I have!
I have the recording from nine days ago
sayin' that I'm usin' my daughter for a check.
-No, no. -[Brooke] I was on the phone!
I definitely didn't expect her to deny the screenshots
and the voice recording of her voice talking [bleep]!
I don't wanna argue with you about your daughter anymore.
That is a pain that I am so sorry
-that you have went... -[bleep] your sorry, Jackie.
Okay, well [bleep] my sorry.
What comes out my mouth is
-always gonna be true. -[Woman] Can I finish?
It's not true that I use my daughter
-for a check, bitch. -[Jackie] Oh my God.
[bleep] prostitute.
[tense music]
Well, if I was a prostitute, bitch, I was a good one!
I know this pussy must be good, bitch.
It ain't!
Shut the [bleep] up.
Brooke callin' me a prostitute...
I've heard worse by much better.
[Brooke] The last thing I have to say to you is this.
That you know it's illegal to record in California, right?
-[Jackie] I didn't record. -You recorded me.
-Sue me, Brooke, sue me. -I will.
[Jackie] If that's what you think I did.
You should be happy that I sue you and not
-beat your mother[bleep] ass. -[Jackie] Sue me!
Again, bitch.
-Jump, jump, bitch! -[Brooke] Right, bitch!
I don't wanna go to jail for elderly abuse.
-Jump! -[Jac'eil] Brooke, Brooke...
[Jackie] I gotta go.
-[Jac'eil] Jackie... -I think this has been
a very interesting conversation,
and yeah, we didn't move forward.
[Brooke] Yeah, we didn't move forward, bitch.
-We don't want you around. -[bleep] you, hoe.
[Brooke] I don't like you. [bleep] you, bitch.
-[bleep] you, hoe. -No, [bleep] you, bitch
[Jackie] Brooke ain't nothin' but a arrogant ho.
[bleep] you, bitch, then do somethin'.
[Shaunie] No, Brooke, Brooke.
Do somethin', bitch, I'll beat your ass while
I eat this taco, hoe.
[tense music]
I'll beat your ass while
I finish this [bleep] taco, bitch!
[bleep] you, hoe.
-Bitch, I'll beat your ass... -[Jackie] Y'all better keep
-your ass over there, hoe! -In my hand and eat it
-at the same time, bitch! -[Jackie] Bye, hoe, bye!
[Shaunie] She ain't worth the taco, Brooke.
Jackie not bein' worth Brooke's taco is just, like,
"Well, damn, the taco only, like, $5, girl.
Like, what you mean?"
Brooke never let her taco go in her hand.
The juice was comin' out from it a little bit,
like, it was crazy.
I was like, "Not the taco."
[Jac'eil] I really didn't want her to leave.
I didn't, either!
Like, every time you ask her what came out of her mouth,
she deflects.
Let's just deal with what you said.
-That's it. -[Evelyn] Right?
But I really appreciate y'all even makin' the attempt to,
to get it right,
but, like, the lack of empathy and sympathy she has for you
disturbs me.
[serious music]
This is the happiest that I've been
in a very long time in my life.
She is the only thing that pokes at the one wound that I have,
that I cannot fix!
I don't wanna have these type of conversations,
so I have made decisions not to be around her!
Because this is what I always get
when I'm dealin' with her,
and it's very hurtful to have someone in your circle
to take advantage of things that you can't change!
She has me so livid right now,
and I've come to realize that after this,
there is no turning back with Jackie.
Every time we've showed up to this space,
it's been like we want the wacky Jackie.
We're fine with that person.
-Yeah. -[Evelyn] You know?
We're just trying to figure out how to pivot from this, like,
where do you go?
Every time we start
trying to make a little headway with Jackie,
she says a lot of [bleep]-up [bleep],
and she always wants to get up and leave.
I feel like a lot of what she's been through
is the reason why she's the person that she is today,
but most people would want to change their life,
become a better person.
Not Jackie, she's still [bleep] a mess.
I know I have to forgive her, but I won't forget.
-Right. -[Shaunie] And I won't
let it happen again.
Now, let me be honest.
I would have really told Jackie, "Thank you for your services."
-In real life. -Why didn't you?!
On that note, is she thanked for her services?
I feel like she thanked herself for her services.
Yes.
Cheers.
[laughter]
[Evelyn] We're good, we don't need no more receipts.
[Female Narrator] Next time on Basketball Wives.
[Jac'eil] It's wedding day.
[Woman] Everyone, please stand.
Wow.
I know we were supposed to do this screening,
but I'm really not comfortable with where the movie is.
So, what do you guys think about Kevin?
I feel like he make her happy.
So, they're moving in together.
Mm.
Kevin and I are a great match.
-He is random! -He is not.
-He came into the fold... -[Brooke] Mm-hm.
And stole your heart.
Am I wrong for saying to you, "Brooke, slow down"?
