When a group of friends decides to swap the bustling nightlife of West Hollywood for the slightly more suburban (but equally dramatic) San Fernando Valley, you know there’s bound to be friction. Bravo’s “The Valley” has documented that friction with the kind of close-up, interpersonal scrutiny that only reality TV can provide. This week, the drama reaches a boiling point.
“Behind Closed Pantry Doors,” airing Tuesday, finds the group wrapping up a trip to Santa Barbara. But relaxation is far from anyone’s mind. Remember that simmering tension between Nia and the trio of Brittany, Jasmine, and Janet? Consider it fully boiled over. The episode suggests a confrontation of epic proportions is on the horizon, one that could fracture the group for good.
Meanwhile, back in Los Angeles, Jesse is still reeling from his wine country disagreement with Michelle. The episode finds him looking for guidance, perhaps recognizing the need for some outside perspective on his relationship struggles. Running a business and keeping up with these friendships proves to be a tricky balancing act.
Tune in to Bravo on Tuesday, May 20 at 9:00 PM ET to witness the fallout.
