Oy vey. On the Nov. 23 episode of ‘Vanderpump Rules,’ Scheana was forced to reassess her marriage amidst Shay’s painkiller addiction. Meanwhile, Kristen and James sought couple’s therapy, while Tom Sandoval and Tom Schwartz proposed a business plan to Lisa.

While Tom Sandoval and Tom Schwartz were looking to move on to bigger and better things on the Nov. 23 episode of Vanderpump Rules, Scheana was desperately trying to hold on to what she’s always known, and that’s her relationship with Shay. But thanks to his painkiller addiction, it won’t be that easy.

Following last week’s bombshell confession, during which Scheana admitted to Lisa Vanderpump that her husband has been addicted to painkillers, she felt forced to reassess her marriage. However, her idea of reassessing her marriage was subjecting Shay to an intervention, which consisted of her friends awkwardly watching while they had a very long tear-filled argument. And after all was said and done — Shay confessed that he often feels very intimidated by Scheana — she and Shay both seem to believe he doesn’t need rehab. Even though he’s been addicted to painkillers for eight years. Instead, Scheana just made him take an at home drug test, but she said she’ll let it slide if he fails for marijuana. Lisa, who seems to be the only smart one on the show, raised her eyebrows at Scheana’s idea of how to keep her husband clean and sober.
Meanwhile, Kristen and James sought couple’s therapy this week, as the skinny Brit continued drinking his sorrows away. While talking to the doctor, James admitted he has a hard time dealing with the fact that his girlfriend has already slept with two of his friends — Tom Sandoval and Jax. Kristen, on the other hand, kept “parenting” him, which led James to call her a “stupid b***.”  We’d love it if this relationship would just end already — and then we can all call it a day. How toxic! Hopefully, Kristen soon finds out that James had full-on intercourse with her friend, Jenny.
And while Kristen and Scheana focused on their relationships this week, Sandoval and Schwartz kept things professional, as they pitched a business plan to Lisa. Apparently, they want to become business partners with her daughter, Pandora, as well as her husband, and help develop the Lisa Vanderpump Sangria brand. Pandora suggested they take some time to think about it and once they create a plan, they can all reassess the situation.
