Y’all… this episode was pure confusion, chaos, and lace fronts flying in 4K. The way we started the season with rumors of Rollie Pollie vs. Lex??? I NEVER thought we’d get there. Zeus really said nobody is safe this season.
First off, Natalie Nunn is back acting like the CEO of Conflict Incorporated while shooting her “Big One” music video with Diamond The Body and Kold Killa. And honestly? The casting this season is kinda stacked. They really did their big one with the mess lineup.
We got DTB and Kold Killa returning as “Most Valuable Baddies,” while Bahati enters already shading the whole Baddies Gone Wild cast talking about “they’re meh.” GIRL THE SHOW JUST STARTED 😭. Then Neek joins representing the cabaret girls and immediately the energy gets aggressive.
Kold Killa still mad at Rican. DTB bringing up old fights. Then Kold Killa saying the Tavi situation “doesn’t count” because “that’s a man” had me HOLLERING because the shade was nasty. And the way she said “just like Diamond face, we were shocked too”??? Zeus editors need jail time.
Then we get the mommy era of Scotlynd Ryan. Natalie and Rollie pull up to meet Scotty and the baby, and Scotty saying her daughter is all she ever needed was actually sweet for two seconds before they immediately went back to being messy about casting and old drama. Rollie trying to be the mature one this episode was NOT on my bingo card.
Now let’s talk about Tommie Lee and Ciroc because WHAT was going on??? Natalie calling Tommie while she’s literally in the bathroom was already insane. Then Tommie acting like she barely knows Ciroc had me weak because girl… didn’t YOU bring her here? Meanwhile Ciroc is emotional because she felt abandoned during the reunion jumping situation and immediately wants smoke with everybody. And somehow Tommie’s friends ended up fighting too. Typical Tuesday on Zeus.
Then Zeus unlocked the boss battle section of the episode at the establishment/lounge:
Ivori vs. Pressure featuring ET.
Pressure walked into that establishment carrying ORGANIC BEEF from every direction. Ivori immediately treated that girl like unpaid rent. ET came back looking MUCH better than the Dora the Explorer reunion wig era, but the tension was still there. Pressure definitely started doing better by round three, especially against ET, but baby… the damage had already BEEN done. Then Damon jumped in the mix and at that point I just gave up trying to track who was fighting who. Zeus really turned somebody business establishment into a wrestling arena.
Outside with the Baddies Gone Wild crew, Daisy still furious Bahati posted her address online. Hurricane came back sounding like somebody uncle after two packs of Newports, and TeeTee still giving roach energy. Bahati and Hurricane throwing hands outside felt extremely on brand for Zeus at this point.
And finally… THE TRIO.
Biggie arrives and surprisingly makes up with Tesehki after all the reunion tension. The hugs were cute and all… but let’s be real: for how long? 😭 The energy still felt cautious, like everybody agreed to peace until somebody watches the confessionals back or Twitter starts tweeting clips again.
Natalie brings up the reunion blowout and the Lex/Biggie drama while everybody acts uncomfortable. Then we get the trio reveal:
Lex, Dolly, and Summer.
Why Summer came back after acting like she was above Zeus last season needs to be studied. Dolly saying Summer turned from a Baddie into a BLOGGER sent me into orbit 😭. Then immediately they start fighting and Natalie basically declares the trio dead on arrival.
Episode 2 proved one thing:
Nobody on this cast likes each other, nobody can communicate, and Zeus cameras will NEVER stop rolling. And honestly? That’s why we watching. ☕👀
