If you ever felt likeVanderpump Ruleswas too sunny and cheery then boy do I have an episode for you!
Why am I not surprised by this?
Shes a little overwhelmed by how much work it all is.

Um, gurl, then why did you take it away from James?
Like, let him have his night and just avoid the place.
Meanwhile, LVP is very much not here for Katies laziness.
She suggests that Katie keep taking all the gigs she can since her husbands check bounced hard.
Then, she gives Katie some dirty plates to take away.
Excellently played, Vanderpump.
James goes to visit Sandoval and Ariana at their apartment.
Naturally, Sandoval is playing his penis flute as James arrives.
They tell him Mexico was terrible which…was it?
It seemed okay compared to some of the real insane trips theyve taken in the past.
Sandoval then brings up Billie wanting James to DJ her next brunch but Lisa still wont let him.
James flips out, as usual, and storms out of the apartment…but then comes back.
He starts yelling at Sandoval and Ariana like its their fault but they were just delivering the message.
Then come the tears.
One things for sure: James does not have the dryeye problemaffectingJen Aniston.
Meanwhile, Stassi is off shooting the cover of her book, which she still has yet to finish.
But first impressions are everything so she arms herself with various basic props, like an iced vanilla latte.
In her own words, she becomes Scheana.
the insane woman she becomes when she drinks.
They both agree shes gotta pull it together.
Brittany admits that she still has moments where she doesnt trust Jax and hes shocked by this.
Im surprised the therapist didnt stand up and throw one of the plants at him.
How did these two bond?
I still really dont understand.
Kristin, for once, showcases some responsibility for her behavior in the past.
Sandoval wanted to go and see Ariana and Kristin throw a fit.
Even Lalas showcase is pretty low-key and sad.
Maybe the darkest moment of the episode is the puppy party thrown by Raquel and (sorta) James.
First of all, to say the party was sparsely attended would be too kind.
Second, the games were almost as janky as the flyer.
Third, Raquels mom is kind of a horn dog.
She meets Peter and like immediately gets fired up.
Schwartz attempts to rectify his bounced check by bringing Lisa and Ken $50,000 IN CASH.
Isnt PayPal an option?
Katie takes him to the bank and lets him borrow her purse/backpack to hold the money.
Schwartz then delivers it to Lisa and Ken at TomTom in a briefcase handcuffed to him.
The two actually seem amused by it and thankfully no one got their arms ripped off by thieves.
Katie couldnt be there for the drop-off because she took Stassi to see The Oracle of Los Angeles.
The oracle, Amanda Yates Garcia, greeted the two gals and then immediately tried to sage Stassi.
She mostly just screamed at her.
The oracle basically thinks Stassi acts out because a demon is pushing her to do so.
Some might just say she has trust issues but I suppose a demon is also plausible.
Next to a portable fan, the group sits on the floor and attempts to wrangle Stassis demons.
But after the oracle dances around a bit, Stassi feels like a Super Mario Bros-esque cloud has parted.
Lets see how successful this ghostbusting has been after shes had a few shots of tequila.
