Adriana’s had a relatively calm season, mostly avoiding conflict and focusing on her hurt feelings about Julia’s friendship with Alexia and Marysol. There was a memorable argument with Marysol about her knees, but it felt almost harmless and Marysol seemed to have brought it on herself. However, the old Adriana is returning – the one who frustrated viewers for years with her stubbornness, tendency to misinterpret things, and lack of loyalty unless people constantly praised her. While she was irritating, that’s also what made her such a good reality TV personality.

The self-defense exercise Gretchen arranged was pretty intense! She had the women experience simulated carjackings, and it didn’t go smoothly. Tamra and Gina were genuinely terrified when a large, not-very-convincing actor tried to mug them, and Tamra immediately blamed Gina. Then Shannon and Jenn went through the same drill, but surprisingly, Shannon was the calmest of everyone. It was shocking, considering Shannon usually panics over even small things – she often gets anxious just opening the fridge! No one could figure out how she handled the situation so well.

It was announced back in October that Mehcad Brooks was leaving the show, so viewers won’t be surprised to see his character missing from the season premiere on September 25th (available to stream the next day on Peacock). I recently had the chance to interview the cast at a press event for *Law & Order*, and Reid Scott – who plays Detective Riley, formerly partnered with Brooks’ character – shared that:

Although Marvel Studios hasn’t announced a release date for *Vision Quest*, a new report suggests when we might see it. According to Alex Perez of The Cosmic Circus, *Vision Quest* is likely to come out between Marvel’s two big 2026 movies, *Spider-Man: Brand New Day* and *Avengers: Doomsday*.
