Welcome back to the island, my fellow Summer House: Martha’s Vineyard lovers, for Season 2, Episode 7. Last week’s episode saw the arrival of Bria and Amir’s romantic partners, the return of last year’s most hated, Phil Brooks and Mariah Torres, and Summer’s explosive blow-up on Bria and Noelle. This week’s showing, titled Flamingo On The Bluffs, features a much-needed conversation between some of the girls, more misunderstandings between lovers, and a fight that gets nasty. Here’s everything that went down in SHMV Season 2, Episode 7.

Summer and Noelle will never be the same…

Summer has caused most of the drama in the Martha’s Vineyard shared house this season. First, she exposed her secret sexual relationship with Alex to the rest of the table by saying that he’s “been inside me.” Then, she got into it with her bestie, Jordan. And the last episode showed her blowing up on Bria after taking her comments the wrong way. “This is why your man doesn’t f*ck with you, you dumb bitch,” Summer told her.

Episode 7 picked up where we left off. As Noelle was attempting to settle Summer down, Summer shoved her, telling her to get off of her. Being the good friend that she is, Noelle followed her and tried to get to the bottom of the issue. After talking for a little while, Noelle revealed she was going through a lot and that things were reaching a boiling point.

The next day, Summer discussed her behavior in the “Truth Booth,” saying she felt “regretful” for how she treated the people she loved. She continued, saying the stress has caused her to not deal with the pressing issues.

Later in the episode, Summer and Noelle finally spoke, and it was an emotional conversation. Although Summer admitted to being in the wrong and said that Bria’s comments caused her to lash out, her actions had nothing to do with Noelle.

Noelle told Summer that when she drinks, she comes off as a “spicy, mean drunk,” which concerns her. She said that Summer pushing her and making rude comments made her feel “discarded,” but she’s willing to forgive her and move forward. However, Noelle noted things would “never be the same.”

Bria and Nick aren’t seeing eye-to-eye…

This week’s episode finally centered around Nick and his event. If you know anything about the 37-year-old, you know he’s very Type-A and likes everything to be in order.

For his night, he wanted to give his roommates chores to complete to get the house ready for the evening. Nick planned to talk to his co-stars during a scheduled house meeting, but Bria wasn’t feeling that at all. She told Nick she didn’t need to sit around for a meeting to find out what he wanted her to do. “Just tell me what you need to me to do so that I can do that one job,” she said.

Nick, clearly thrown off guard, assigned Bria bathroom duty, asking her to clean the mirrors with Windex, ensure fresh hand towels were available, and stock the bathrooms with toilet paper.

Upstairs, Bria and Shanice complained to each other about Nick’s requests. After consulting with each other, they decided that if Nick wanted tidy bathrooms, he should’ve hired a maid. Whew. Okay, Bria. Maybe Preston was right — you’re kind of giving brat-like behavior.

Natalie and Amir bump heads over a misunderstanding…

Now that Natalie is in the house, we’re seeing more of her relationship with Amir. The first few episodes of the season have shown a little bit—specifically, them fighting over petty misunderstandings. And this episode was no different. Except this time, they’re fighting over Natalie’s insecurities about Jordan.

Since so many people were in their house, Amir mistook another woman for Jordan. When she walked past, he said, “Is that Jordan?” with a hint of curiosity in his voice. From Natalie’s perspective, she took it as him drooling over another woman. For the record — he wasn’t. But, again, Natalie is insecure about and around Jordan, which isn’t Amir or Jordan’s issue to work through.

Like we’ve seen many times before, Amir asked what was wrong, and Natalie said, “Nothing,” leaving Amir to try to read her mind. Eventually, she said his comment, “Is that Jordan?” rubbed her the wrong way. Girl, get f*cking real, or get out of this house, please.

Amir was also confused, asking why his comment bothered her. “I was just taken back because it looked like her,” he said. “These girls have like six different wigs.” When does Natalie leave the house again? We miss the old Amir.

Nick opens up about the challenges he’s going through…

In case you didn’t know, Nick is an avid runner. He’s competed in marathons across the world, including Tokyo and New York City.

During his event, he gave a toast and told his guests that he had run a race on the Vineyard earlier in the day and finished in fifth place. As he continued sharing, he became emotional, telling everybody that his placement was significant to him because his fraternity brother, who was number five on their line, had passed away earlier that year.

He shared more about Greek life on HBCU (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) campuses, explaining that the culture and relationships they build with their counterparts are so rich it’s something that can’t be duplicated.

Nick fought back tears in his confessional, telling producers that his friend, Biv, had “so much more to give to the world.”

“And I miss him,” he said.

Bria loses her cool on Simon in front of her roommates…

As the party continued, drinks began flowing, and you know what that means … DRAMA. In case you forgot, Bria’s boyfriend, Simon, is in town. If you saw Season 1, you already know Simon LOVES to party.

During this party, he wanted to have fun in an inflatable flamingo costume. As soon as Bria saw him in it, she lost her cool. “You’re being trash as f*ck,” she told him. “It’s being disrespectful.”

She continued asking him to put the costume away, and Simon wasn’t interested in listening. “I’m going to break up with you if you don’t f*cking cut the sh*t,” she said.

Later, Bria grabbed Simon’s flamingo by the neck with such force that it startled Shanice, Alex, and Preston. “I swear to f*cking God, I’m not playing with your dumbass,” Bria said. “Why do you swear to f*cking God?” Simon asked. “Stop that sh*t.”

“I kindly asked you,” Bria said before Simon cut her off, saying, “I kindly asked you to don’t give a sh*t.”

Bria went off on poor Simon upstairs. “You’re bugging,” she said. “I’m just having a good time,” he replied.

In her confessional, Bria told producers that because Nick dedicated the night to his line brother who passed, she wanted to ensure nothing took away from the moment. “I feel like it’s the tipping point of bigger issues that we’re dealing with. Listening and respecting my friends and my feelings and how he puts himself first,” Bria said.

The episode ended with Bria telling Simon their relationship was over. “Pack your sh*t up and go,” she said.
