The Valley After Show is almost more dramatic than the actual show. On the first two episodes, we get more insight into Jax's manipulations and they go way further than what we've even seen on the show so far. Brittany (and basically the entire cast) fill us in on how far Jax has gone with his lies, manipulation and gaslighting. And spoiler alert -- he has no one on his side.

On this week's reunion episode, Dorit completely dominates the conversation, leaving little room for the left side of the couch (except Kyle) to even respond -- does anyone else get to talk? Kyle continues to try to say she's a "girls-girl", even though her actions say otherwise. Erika proves herself to be useless once again, and even with conflict served up on a platter from her shady comments on WWHL, she backs down. Andy Cohen (finally) does the lord's work calling out Kyle about Morgan, and

Should she have stayed for the photo? And what really led to her being "done"? We also have a lot more gaslighting, hypocrisy and fakery in this episode. Kyle continues to try to prove she's not a mean girl (while calling women snakes), Erika continues giving us nothing in regards to Tom Girardi's sentence/verdict
