We pick up where we left off in Miama at Sheana’s birthday party. From Sheana’s instagram pictures it looks like everyone put aside their differences and had a good time. Tom and Jax recovered after their fight at dinner and Jax did some major flirting with Vail. Kristin on the other hand was shooting Ariana dirty looks all night, but Ariana being an adult, is just going to let it go so she doesn’t ruin Sheana’s weekend. Tom and Katie seem to be in a really great place in their relationship now, but Katie’s relationship with Stassi is really strained. Tom meets up with an old friend John. He was a model scout that took the guys under his wing. Jax (or Jason back then) lived with him, drove his cars, basically let this guy be his sugar daddy. They had a falling out where Tom kept in touch and Tom invited him to dinner for a little reunion.
The girls are in Sheana’s suite making toilet paper wedding dresses. Kristin arrives over 30 minutes late reeking of sex and Tequila and Sheana makes her judge. She spent the time throwing nothing but shade Ariana’s way. Of course with Kristin as a judge Sheana wins. They all meet up at the pool later. Jax is bragging about how he hasn’t had sex that weekend and tells Vail 4 or 5 days is the longest he’s gone without it. He ADMITS to possibly being a sex addict and Vail says she has woken up and her flirting with Jax will stay just that. I don’t believe that for a second! Do you? Everyone is at Dolce having dinner. Tom and Ariana are late and Kristin starts in on how she’d love for her to be hit by a car or a bus or anything and JAX of all people is telling her to cut it out. You have to be doing something pretty awful for Jax to be the voice of reason! Ariana is in the cab having a breakdown over how horribly Kristin is treating her and how it’s ruining her weekend. Ariana’s anxiety is through the roof and Ariana is bawling and Tom does his best to comfort her. He realizes that he needs to change his tactics with Kristin. He tells Ariana about John coming together and we get some more background on the Jax/John relationship. Rumor has it they were hooking up and not long after, Jax aka Jason picks up and moves to LA and changes his name to Jax. John shows up at the restaurant and we learn more about Jax and his modeling, John still has a nude of him in his living room, Jax said he lived in his room. Now does he mean his bedroom or a room in his house? That is the biggest question here. At dinner Tom and Ariana are having some PDA and Kristin is unhappy about it. Ariana is sitting next to Katie and Katie takes this time to let Ariana know how much she respects how she is handling the whole Kristin situation. She thinks Ariana has been so good at ignoring the BS for Sheana’s sake and wishes Stassi could be more like her.
Stassi is back in LA melting in her apartment with broken A/C talking shit about Katie with Christina. While everyone is away Stassi turns up at SUR. I don’t know what go into her but she started telling Lisa all her tricks to stealing liquor while working. Red Sangria in a coffee cup, glasses of pino gregio, soda water and lemon were just a few. Lisa didn’t look to impressed while Stassi thought it was hilarious. Her proudest achievement was hiding mini wine bottles in the toilet and she goes to show Lisa and they find that someone is still doing that trick Stassi sits down with Lisa. Stassi tells Lisa that she loves SUR and Lisa tells her that SUR will always be her home. Such a lovely conversation, you know some trouble is brewing! Lisa lays it down pretty bluntly that she shouldn’t be cutting whole chapters of her life out. She has issues with Kristin and Jax but cutting everyone (including Katie out) isn’t right. Stassi says that Katie hurt her by going to Miami and she is cutting out people in her life that aren’t good for her. Lisa is trying to get her to realize that Katie has done nothing wrong, she went to Miami to be with Tom just like Stassi when to NYC to be with her boyfriend. Katie has been a loyal friend to her unlike Stassi to Katie. At first I thought Stassi had come back a little more mature but she’s starting to revert back to the Stassi who gets bent out of shape if you don’t do as she wants and hate the people she hates and love the people she loves.
The party moves to a night club after dinner. Katie calls Stassi who reluctantly answers the phone. She is so cold to Katie and gets her off the phone as soon as she could. Lisa was happy she took the call and urges her not to cut Katie out of her life. Like the spoiled brat Stassi is she tells Lisa she just doesn’t get it, she only listens to the people who will do what she tells them to and storms out of the room. Lisa is right when she says that Stassi doesn’t want friends she wants followers. The sooner Katie realized that the better of she’ll be. Katie is upset and Vail talks to her about it. Katie explains Stassi wants her to be friend with no one in the group but she has to be for Tom’s sake. Vail tells her to choose her boyfriend and not Stassi. Katie knows she’s right. Sheana is checking off more items on her to do list and Kristin is still obsessing over Ariana. Tom decided to pull Kristin outside to talk. Kristin wastes no time turning on the water works crying about how it breaks her heart to see Ariana and him together. She despises her, she can’t see them together, she wants him to stop being so hateful. Tom is trying to explain that after 6 years of struggling to make it work it’s time to move on and be happy with other people. Tom reaches his emotional breaking points and starts crying. He just wants her to be happy, they had times he’ll always remember and he thought at times they’d spend forever together but it’s time to move on. He pulls himself together and tries to make her see his actions are never intended to hurt her, he’s just moving on with his life. He tells her that he will be cool with James but she needs to do the same with Ariana and she reluctantly agrees. All this had done is amped up the psycho in Kristin’s mind and inspired her to break the two of them up even more.
The next morning everyone is looking pretty rough and not to into the notion of having to get on a plane. They drag their buts out of bed. Sheana thinks the trip was the best Bachelorette party a girl could have and thinking the absence of Stassi was the reason it went so smoothly. Is she right? Probably. In the light of a new day Kristin is still wishing Ariana and wants to break Tom up. You know who I feel sorry for? James. He’s too infatuated with Kristin to realize that she is just sleeping with him because she can’t have Tom right now. I wish he’d wake up and tell her to hit the road.
