First, Jax struggles to keep his anger in check during a therapy session with Brittany, leading to some uncomfortable revelations about their relationship. Meanwhile, Tom Sandoval and Max get into a heated argument over the latter's flirtations with Dayna, which spills over into the workplace and puts Lisa in a tough spot. The situation is compounded by the fact that Tom Schwartz is feeling left out and neglected by his best friend Sandoval.

On the personal front, Stassi is thrown for a loop by a surprise visit from her father, who tries to make amends for past mistakes. She sees through his insincerity, however, and struggles with whether or not to forgive him.

She tries to turn the tables by confronting Dayna about her own behavior, but things don't go according to plan and Scheana ends up looking petty. Finally, James tries to make amends with Katie after their dramatic blowout last season, but his efforts may be too little too late.
