Jenn (left) arguing with Emily (off screen)
Andy asks Jenn what the "dirty business" is. Emily volunteers to explain. Japanese professional baseball player Shohei Ohtani's interpreter has a gambling addiction and makes bets with Matt, who has an illegal bookie business. In order to settle the debt, the interpreter stole money from Ohtani, and that money went into Ryan's account. Ryan then moved the money to an "marker" account, specifically Resorts World and Pechanga Resort Casino. Ryan and Matt then took "32" trips to Las Vegas to gamble those chips from the marker accounts. Jenn attempts to explain that the only mistake is Ryan's name being on the account, when it is in fact managed by Matt. Gina is worried for Jenn because Ryan is aware of Matt's illegal bookie business. Jenn doesn't believe what the ladies are saying.

In Reunion Part 2, Ryan had sent Tamra a cease and desist for her statement accusing Ryan of the lawsuit on Watch What Happens Live! Tamra explains it as Ryan was trashing Eddie, but Eddie and her's CBD business makes more in a year than the money stolen from Shohei Ohtani. She "butchered" the statement on WWHL and instead said the FBI raided Ryan's house, which is not true. Jenn wants Tamra to know when she makes statements like that it has consequences on others.
