After last week, when Dr Jenn berated and cursed out her clients and Dick Donato told Dr. Jenn he is HIV positive, let’s see what fresh hell is in store for us this week! Oh look! A “human lie detector.” Sigh.
Nikki and Juan Pablo are arguing about moving in together. Nikki storms off and goes to cry in the corner away from cameras. Deena tells Juan Pablo to go after her but he doesn’t.
Jenna is isolating after Dr. Jenn was rude to her. I hate her boyfriend. Dr. Jenn gives them the night off from the human lie detector. Everyone else has to go. Boys on one side of the room, girls on the other. Everyone appears to be less than thrilled.
The human lie detector doesn’t believe Juan Pablo. Dick says he can’t really talk about why he is there. Stephanie is pissed that Dick is here to come out with his medical issue and she was mislead. Stephanie said that there is zero chance they will get back together. Dick is sad. Everyone is curious about what Dick is hiding.
Cicely wants the lady to find out if Treach is cheating. Dick is hysterical in his talking heads. “Is this really happening? Are we are Jerry Springer? Will paternity tests arrive next?” The human lie detector believes Treach. Cicely still doesn’t believe him.
Nikki has major trust issues with Juan Pablo. The lady asks if Juan Pablo loves her. He says he is falling for her, but he is not there yet. Juan Pablo blames it on his culture. Which is odd. Because the Latin culture is all about love, no? Juan Pablo apologizes to Nikki several times. After the activity Nikki explains AGAIN to Juan Pablo that she feels like she is always waiting to be enough for him. Juan Pablo says he wants to make a life with her. He wishes he were more emotional. He wishes she was Venezuelan so she would not expect to be loved. Who knew Venezuelan women are fine with not being loved by their partners? The more you know….#Rainbow
Dick goes in to comfort Cicely. Dick seems to think the activity was damaging. Cicely is still mad at Treach for things from years ago. Nobody liked the activity. They said it was very embarrassing and out of line. Treach is pissed that Cicely didn’t accept the lie detector. Treach thinks Cicely should have apologized to her. He’s pissed. Treach is sleeping on the couch.
Dick says that tonight made it clear to him why most of America thinks he is a fucking douchebag. Which reminds me, I still haven’t cashed my douchebag check from this show. I REALLY need to go to the bank before it expires. I hate going to the bank it’s in the wrong direction from everything. Dick thinks Nikki and Juan Pablo are doomed.
The next day, Cicely is still accusing Treach of cheating and is pissed. If he doesn’t admit to cheating they are done. Treach says Cicely wants to “win” by proving he is not who he says he is. He’s over it. Cicely is pissed that Jenna and John didn’t have to do the activity. Jenna says she’s sorry she could not be there for them.
It’s time for Dick to tell the group about his HIV status. Stephanie finally seems to be ready to deal with it. Dick is terrified. Dick says that there are less than ten people who know, and his life is about to change forever. Dick looks terrible. Dick says that his relationship with Stephanie is probably the last relationship he’ll ever have. He launches into the story about how the second time he went on Big Brother his HIV test came back positive. Every cries.
Can I point out that Deena and Chris are the only normal couple on the show? They don’t seem to have any problems. I can’t see any of these other couples making it. Not a one. And I really want Jenna to dump John.
What do y’all think?
I feel so bad for Dick, and that is something I never thought I’d say.
Jenna and her boyfriend do need to break up, but, she has some ISSUES that need to be addressed off the show. IMO
I actually can feel the misery between Treach and his girlfriend. They need to shake hands and get the hell away from each other. I don’t think he’s an angel but I can see where she could drive you loony.
Deena and her boyfriend are the only stable people there. I agree with you I don’t why they are on the show.
Niki and Juan Pablo… I just have no words for them.
Great recap!
I’m not at all sure what Treach’s girlfriend is looking for here. She doesn’t trust him. It doesn’t matter what he does or says. Even if there was an actual lie detector that said he was telling the truth, she wouldn’t believe it. (To be clear, I’m not that he isn’t cheating on her or hasn’t cheated on her in the past.) So if you can’t believe one word out of someone’s mouth, why are you still with him? Just move on your life or something.
Have you noticed Treach’s gf is mad at EVERYONE? She’ll never be happy. He seems like he’s been pretty patient with her.
So true Cicely really doesn’t like Nikki. She wouldn’t want anyone to talk about her friend either. I don’t like her. I have met Nikki at the hospital taking care of my daughter. She is very sweet and very kind. She said herself she had some ways but everyone does in my opinion. She is one of the nurses that love their job , not just do the job
I usually like watching this show, but this season our local cable company dropped all Viacom programing after the second episode! Grrrrr! So, thanks Tamara for the recaps! Nikki and Juan Pablo will never make it…Never! I don’t know what has happened in Treach and Ciecly’s past, but if you truly want to kill a relationship, keep accusing someone of cheating with no proof! Treach – RUNNNNNN. I feel bad for Dick but this is not going to the last relationship he’ll ever have. Positive thoughts! Jenna is on the wrong show. And, if I were Chris and Deena, I would sit back with a glass of wine and a bowl of popcorn and just enjoy the show. C & D should just take the other couples as an example of where they don’t want to end up. OK that’s my rant. Lol.
I cannot believe Nikki is still with JP. I believe he was telling her that Americans say I love you willy-nilly and that’s why he wants her to be from another background. He doesn’t believe she loves him, so it’s ok he’s not in love with her. They are a mess and probably should just stay together so no one else has to suffer being their partner.
I must say… I agree with your logic!
Oh and Jenna’s teeth really bother me.
Me too…
And me !
Ugh but something about Dr. Jenn’s mouth bugs me more!
JP is a narcissist and is in love with himself. I dont believe he has ever loved or will ever love Nikki or anyone else. Nikki keeps wanting him to “choose” her. The Bachelor is over and JP has no rose to give.
Cicely, Cicely…you’ve been with Treach 8 YEARS and the human lie detector tells you he has been faithful and this is how you act?? Basically, if Jesus Christ came down from the heavens and told you the same thing, I dont think you wouldnt believe him either!
Preach!
OMG Tamara I am so late to the party on this. Jesus Christ – Juan Pablo is a TOOL. I have read that he was, but thought perhaps there were just a lot of haters out there. LOL In the entire history of time, almost every man has said he loved a woman to get a little arsh, not this guy! Man watching him trying to fake sincerity was absolutely priceless.
I use to be in love with Treach, no longer my friend. He is a trip too.
I will definitely go back and read all of the recaps and pray for a marathon!
My favorite part, was Dick’s imitation of Juan Pablo! Including when Dick states ” Now I know why most of America thinks he’s a Douche! ”
That part made my night!
I think Jenna is the devil. She seriously reminds me of someone who should have horns, red eyes & a slithery tongue. She thinks she is better than everyone. I don’t know why she came there if she isn’t going to participate.
Clearly, the accommodations aren’t up to her standards.
Can you say DIVA?!
When she quit porn to go into non-porn movies, I was proud of her & thought & hoped she would succeed. Now I see why she hasn’t. She’s really got a big chip on her shoulder. If I were her boyfriend, I’d run.
(Slowly stepping away from my iPad… Wondering what I have just said…).
I love JP! He’s being honest to Nikki and she just can’t handle it. The bachelor, as a show, has always been skeptical because how can you fall in love with someone on such a platform!? Nikki only said that because she was on national tv and that’s what’s supposed to happen. I don’t think she is in love with JP. He won’t tell her what she wants to he, he’s saying what she needs to hear, she just needs to relax and let the relationship start taking it’s course and stop forcing it.
What is Jenna on? She should have been drug tested before coming into the house because she is not all there. Every season, there is at least one couple that refuses to participate in the process and sabotages the other couples’ experience. This season it happens to be Jenna and what’s his name. The formula is not working, and it makes Dr. Jen look like a pushover who lacks credibility.
All the couples, with the exception of Deena and her boyfriend, need to separate because their relationships are emotionally/mentally abusive and they do not seem connected. Treach’s girlfriend was territorial and overly concerned about Dick, which rubbed me the wrong way. She did not need to be abrasive and dismissive of the other women when Dick and his girlfriend met privately with Dr. Jen. She needs to focus on solving her own issues instead of checking everyone else in the house.
This series needs to be cancelled because it makes a mockery of therapy (i.e. Farrah Abrams) and the good that can come from seeking help with your relationship. I feel everyone could benefit from personal therapy, and this show could have shown us how we have to work on ourselves, if we wish to improve our personal relationships. Folks that may have wanted to seek therapy may be turned off to it because it seems as if nothing is accomplished or resolved by going to therapy. Therapy is a good thing, but you have to want it and participate in the process if you wish to become more self aware and make a change in your behavior.
Who would have guessed that the little falling down drunken, hard partying, stunt pulling meatball Deena of Jersey Shore fame and her boyfriend would be the normal couple on Couples Therapy? That has to tell us something. They are definitely scraping the bottom of the barrel for therapy couples. Evil Dick was not a favorite of mine on Big Brother but I feel for him telling his secret that he has kept for so long. Plenty of others have done it before him but it’s got to be scary not to know what will happen when you finally tell your truth. Like with life I suppose. Some response will be supportive and some not so much. Treach just needs to say he cheated whether he did or not because Cicely isn’t going to believe him either way. She had a human lie detector. What does she need, a Magic 8 Ball? Juan Paublo will never give Nikki what she really wants. He may finally say he loves her but, she’ll never know if he said it to shut her up or if he means it. I think the only reason Jenna and what’s his name are together is because their partners left them and got together. Not a good reason for them to become a couple. They don’t like anything the other one says ever.
Treach’s girl is AWFUL. She is pissed at the others for caring about Dick. Pissed at Nikki for saying give Dick some time because it’s his issue, not theirs. Pissed at Jenna for not attending a group activity (per Dr. Jenn’s advice). Pissed that Treach passed the lie detector: was honest that he had not cheated!
First: focus on your own shit.
Then: WTF DO YOU WANT??? THE MAN IS TRYING AND NOTHING WILL SATISFY YOU! BITCH!!!!!!!!!
That is all.
I don’t understand why treach hasn’t dumped cicely or cicely hasn’t dumped treach.

This comment section is for comments on things at this site. If you read something interesting at another site please comment on what you read there, there. I am sure they will appreciate your thoughts on their story.
Thanks.
Sorry about that. Forgot that rule. Thought if I didn’t enclose the .com address, I would be OK. Consider me duly chastised.
I don’t like this show anymore because Dr. Jenn knew that Dick and Stephanie’s reconciliation was all phony, and that Stephanie came to the house later than Dick because she was hesitant to be part of the lie. Dick came on the show because he was short of money, and wanted the publicity from disclosing his HIV status. Dr. Jenn didn’t kick them out because it’s good TV, just like she didn’t kick out Farrah
Dick got ENGAGED to a girl named Amy who lives in Colorado after the whole BB13 incident happened. She is a “civilian” who has a real job so I’m not sure what she saw in him, but he moved out there and lived with her for a year or more. So Dick saying he hasn’t had a romantic relationship since then sounds like hogwash to me.
Amy gave Dick the boot at some point, after which he moved back to California, then to Ireland, where he got his ass beat down, then back to California (for the VH1 show, apparently) and now somewhere in Florida (maybe Orlando).
So the timeline Dick is presenting on the show seems rather sketchy, but whatever. I’m guessing he had to run out the clock on his CBS commitment before he could shop his story around for a paycheck. Stephanie is just a prop for Dick on this show. Their body language in their scenes together makes it evident that they have no intention of “dating”.
I think Couples Therapy is just The Surreal Life mixed with Noah’s Ark.
And don’t get me started on Jenna J….that is just sad, sad sad.
