Monday on Teen Mom 2, Jenelle and Barbara Evans' feud came to a head, as did ongoing tensions between Kailyn Lowry and Javi Marroquin.
Big surprise on both fronts, we know.
When Teen Mom 2 Season 8 Episode 10 got underway, Kailyn's entire storyline focused around fighting with her ex-husband, as usual.
If you watch Teen Mom 2 online, you won't see any of the biggest drama, because it happened when the film crew wasn’t there for it.
We got to hear her talking about it, though, and talk about it she did, describing how “psycho” Javi broke into her house in a fit of rage.
His goal? Ransacking her place to see if anyone was living there with her. His version of events, told later to friends, was a bit different.
He was going over there to pick up the kids, he said, though he acknowledged hopping a fence and breaking in, for reasons unknown.
In any case, as the cops told Kail, there's not a lot they can do with those accounts and considering the house is technically still his too.
As we all know by now, Kailyn Lowry is pregnant again, and Javi Marroquin is not happy about it, providing an interesting subtext here.
We didn't know this at the time this was filmed, but watching these events, you can see why Kailyn got a protective order against Javi.
Lowry's friend Sterling backed up her side of events to producers (JC Cueva among them), calling Javi's behavior scary and terrifying.
Even Jo Rivera, who was staying neutral between Javi and Kail, felt he crossed a line by scaring son Isaac with the breaking and entering.
Jo was clearly onto something, as Javi's behavior - whatever and however he wants to say about it - is clearly impacting Kailyn's kids.
A few days later, when Kailyn showed up to get Lincoln, her son with Javi, and Javi wouldn’t let him go, leading to a fight in the driveway.
In less insane news, Chelsea Houska got one of “those fake babies in home ec” for her fiancé, Cole, and daughter, Aubree, to practice with.
Yes, that's what Houska's storylines have become.
She's so pulled together that producers have to manufacture reasons to keep her on camera, which if you think about it, is quite a compliment.
Meanwhile, Leah Messer was considering going back to beauty school, which she attended once, but failed to finish that first time.
The program director was more than willing to welcome her back, but pursuing her education takes time, which she has little of.
Fortunately, it doesn't look like Leah is pregnant with her fourth child, but she's got three kids by two exes, and a lot on her plate.
In Jenelle Evans' world, the Teen Mom 2 terror vowed to be “civil” with her mother Barbara this week, but ended up at odds with her.
Big surprise there, right? She told fiance David Eason that if her mom kept fighting her over custody, she’d become “more distant than ever.”
She was true to her word, for what that's worth (a lot of awkwardness), as Jenelle escalated their ensuing conversation into a shouting match.
Her son, Jace, sat there looking uncomfortable in what must be a sadly familiar situation for him as Jenelle went at his grandma and guardian.
Accusing her own mother of only being interested in screen time, Jenelle ripped MTV’s camera from her car’s dashboard in a fit of rage.
Barb ended up storming off, promising that if she got custody, Jenelle would have limited visitation ... why can't these two just get along?!
