MTV Real World: Ex-Plosion Episode 9 Review

This week, Cory and Brian's relationship has deepened and it makes Jenny a bit uncomfortable. According to Brian, what he and Cory have is special. "It's deeper than bromance," he says.

We also learn this week that the production team apparently likes to post videos of footage for the cast to watch. This episode gets a bomb of drama when a video is posted with the thumbnail of Jay and a girl looking cozy at the club. Jay wonders if the production team can air the footage of him being at the club, going after other chicks, and that one time he kissed another girl. So, he deletes the video in hopes to cover the cheating tracks.

He also totally forgot that the production team was going to use the interviews from casting. In his casting interview, Jay mentions how he has three girls on rotation, including Jenna. Whoops.

Jamie stays true to herself and tells Jenna about the video. When Jay finds out that Jenna knows about the tape, he knows exactly who told Jenna and he says, "Jamie's a f***** rat." Honestly, everyone knows Jamie is loyal to no one but Truth and Justice.

Jenny eventually has an intervention with Hailey about Hailey's down mood. Besides living with her ex who has moved on, Hailey confesses her absent father past. Meanwhile, Arielle confronts Tom and tells him he needs to speak up. Tom wants Hailey to leave, but he doesn't want to ask Hailey to leave directly. He just expects her to leave on her own, but we all know that's not going to happen. This pushes Tom to confess, "Hailey might commit murder on the show. In cold blood, with the cameras running."

To try and find out about the video, Jenna emails production to get the video Jay deleted. When production delivers, Jamie and Hailey band together with Jenna to watch the video. Not only does Jay kiss a girl in the video, but he says, "You're the one whose been sending me dirty emails," to the girl.

"How am I going to trust you now?" Jenna says after he admits to having been seeing another girl when they first got together. For Jenna, their entire relationship was founded upon lies and deceit. This makes her uneasy, uncomfortable, and ready for some revenge (we'll get to that later).

"I don't want to lose Jenna," Jay says but what he really means is that he's upset he was caught.

The house goes out to the club and Hailey cozies up to Jamie and says, "I'm not violent, but I've tried so hard." She says this meaning that Tom gets her mad and she's frustrated that he isn't treating her to her liking. Why she's saying this to Jamie, I don't know.

After a number of drinks, Hailey decides that she's ready to make her dance moves on Tom in an attempt to get his attention while doing a downward dog move in a miniskirt. This catches Jamie's eye and she pulls Hailey to the side and says, "I'm not okay with you touching him." To which Hailey says, "Honestly I'm over it."

When the group returns to the house, Hailey rolls around on the floor while Tom and Jamie have a relationship therapy session facilitated by Jay and Cory. "You're gonna regret this tomorrow," Jenna says while she watches Hailey make a fool of herself. It is obvious that Hailey is reveling in the tension she stirred up between Jamie and Tom.

Tom confronts Hailey and demands she leave because of all the drama she has brought to the house. She responds, "That kind of hurts me, Tom." The confrontation escalates to what Cory declares was, "One of the best backhands I've seen in a long time."

Hailey is confronted by Jay and Cory, the resident relationship counselors when Arielle is off-duty, and Hailey says," I can't watch him date someone thats not good enough for him."

Hailey calls her mother after being held in isolation and threatening death upon Tom. She and her mother talk about her options, staying in the house or leaving, she says that she wants to stay just to make his life hell. She says, "You better believe that I will ruin his life."

Next Episode: Jenna gets dressed up for a night of dancing with other guys at the club. From the preview, it looks like she's dancing with another MC. Poor Jay.
