Naomi’s Bombshell on BTG: She’s Out of the Lawsuit... & In Her Feelings
Let’s kick off this full episode recap with the queen of courtroom tension herself—Naomi. After weeks of legal sparring and frosty glares, she decides to pull a dramatic Houdini act and remove herself from Bill’s lawsuit. And before you start thinking this is some kumbaya moment of reconciliation, Naomi makes it crystal clear: this is not a reconciliation, and no, they’re not about to go braid each other’s hair.
Bill, as confused as ever, demands answers. Naomi? She tries to dodge. But Bill keeps pressing like the nosy dad he is, until Naomi finally snaps: “Fine. Maybe I’m just scared.” And then, boom—she drops the emotional nuke: “I love you. Life is short, and I love you too much to ruin whatever time we have left.”
Cue the awkward father-daughter feelings fest. Bill gets all misty, saying he actually liked having Naomi challenge him in court because it meant she was around, even if she was there to metaphorically strangle him in front of a judge. Naomi, in peak emotionally unavailable mode, confesses that she’s still mad as hell, doesn’t forgive him, and maybe never will—but she also knows that hashing this out in court is just not it.
And just when you think the drama is cooling down, Bill reveals another shocker: Mike is officially fired. Finally. Justice may be blind, but this one’s been overdue.
Tyrell, Trauma & Takedowns
Meanwhile, on the teenage angst side of town, Tyrell’s world is exploding thanks to that viral photo. Martin gets wind of it, and let’s just say, he is not amused. The reporter offers to bury the story in exchange for a future scoop (because, of course, everyone has a price), but Martin’s more interested in why Tyrell lied about his mysterious “bike fall” in the first place.
Tyrell, ever the wounded teen philosopher, goes off. According to him, Martin and Smitty’s well-meaning interventions are actually part of the problem. Being known as the “bougie Congressman’s pity project” has made him a permanent target at school, and Tyrell is done. He rejects every solution they toss his way, because apparently he’s in his “main character energy” era and nobody understands his pain.
Martin’s ready to charge into the school and go full Liam Neeson, but Smitty urges him to dial it down. Spoiler alert: Martin probably won’t. Stay tuned for fireworks.
Dani’s Vodka Spiral & Andre’s Unwanted Wake-Up Call
Now, let’s talk about Dani. Our girl is at home, working on her runway strut—but it’s less Vogue and more please dial 911 after she downs way too much vodka. She’s feeling frisky and invites Andre over for a “birthday suit” performance (subtle), but he’s still stuck at the hospital, being a responsible adult and shooting his documentary.
Jacob, ever the bro, offers to set Andre up with a “certified baddie,” but Andre passes, which raises serious eyebrows. Who’s got Andre tied up in knots? (Hint: she’s currently face-down on her living room floor.)
By the time he shows up, Dani’s a giggling, half-conscious mess, and Andre has to go into full caretaker mode. Blanket? Check. Tylenol? Check. Awkward energy? Oh, it’s thick.
Post-nap, Dani tries to rally and get the vibes going again, but something’s off. Even she seems low-key terrified by her own behavior. Could this be the moment Dani finally realizes that maybe—just maybe—vodka is not a food group?
Vanessa & Doug: Living in the Land of Denial, Population Two
Over at the country club, Vanessa’s showing up early, looking fabulous, and shutting Diego down like a pro. He offers her a little flirty one-on-one training session, but Vanessa says “no thanks” with a sprinkle of condescension. When he suggests her partnership with Joey might be more than business, she looks like she’s about to file an HR complaint right on the spot.
Doug, meanwhile, is booked and busy—too busy, if you ask Shanice, who’s checking his schedule like it’s her full-time job. He brushes her off, but something’s clearly up. Enter Joey, who drops by to “check in,” and Doug suddenly confesses he’s quitting gambling cold turkey.
Sure, Doug. And pigs are lining up for flight school.
