Spyder tells Bux their friendship can’t be saved.
The crew makes it to Orlando sans Tati for the boot camp. Ceaser tells them she wasn’t allowed to come because she skipped the recent team meeting. In a green screen interview, Bae makes it clear that she doesn’t agree with Ceaser’s decision. And she thinks Tatti is too loyal to be punished for taking a “mental health day.”
After everyone gets settled into their rooms, they get together for a bite to eat and fellowship. Bux attempts to hash things out with Spyder but he’s not interested. He tells Bux the friendship is dead because he told his former fling some personal things about his wife. Although Bux denies telling his ex-fling anything, Spyder says he knows this isn’t true because the woman said things he told Bux in confidence.
A blowup takes place between Ceaser and Tatti.
Tatti pops up. Ceaser isn’t happy to see her. So he’s immediately cold towards her. And this hurts Tatti’s feelings.
So she snaps. She calls Ceaser out for not allowing her to open a Black Ink. Tatti tells Ceaser that she’s sacrificed so much for Ceaser. Well, this sets off Ceaser. He asks Tatti what she’s actually contributed all this time. Then he tells Tatti he didn’t want her to open up a shop because of the fed case she just beat. And he takes it a step further by telling her that Spyder, Vanity, and others at the shop don’t even like her. He owes her nothing.
Vanity denies disliking Tatti. She says that she had some professional issues but they have always been good on a personal level. So she doesn’t want to be dragged into Ceaser and Tatti’s argument.
In a green screen interview, Vanity says she had a conversation with Ceaser 6 months ago. And she said that even though Tatti is the apprentice, she feels like she has to do a lot of Tatti’s tasks.
Tatti wants the truth.
Bae takes Tatti outside to cool off. Vanity attempts to come outside to clear things up with Tatti, but Tatti doesn’t want to talk. So she snaps at Vanity and Vanity decides to just walk away.
Draya from 9 Mag and Nychelle show up to join the crew after being invited by Ceaser. The staff is split into two teams with Draya and Nychelle being captains to complete a scavenger hunt and a quick tattoo exercise.
Later on, some of them go to the bar to unwind. Tatti hasn’t moved on from what Ceaser alleged. So she takes Bae’s advice and asks them if it’s true that they don’t like her.
Bae and Vanity clash.
Krystal tells Tatti that they have never had any problems. She just thinks Ceaser said that to rile her up because he was mad she came to Orlando when she wasn’t invited. Vanity says that Tatti was so upset that she was snapping at her. Bae taunts Vanity for getting emotional and they start arguing. The episode ends on a cliffhanger after Bae throws her drink at Vanity.
