Lala Kent and Katie Maloney are still on the offense over Leviss’ behavior on the trip — namely that she got drunk and made out with a Vegas waiter Kent liked and then used a kiddo galaxy light to illuminate her Vegas hotel room.“I was being young and fun and single and living my life, and these girls literally set me up to make me seem like I’m only chasing after guys that they’re interested in,” Leviss, 28, says early in the episode.Kent and Maloney, 36, are accused of being the villains in their treatments of Leviss, who seems intent on defending herself against the volatile Kent.“She is kinda thriving, kinda hot,” Tom Schwartz says of Leviss defending herself.Not surprisingly, Tom Sandoval also stands up for the woman we now know to be his mistress, confronting Maloney for being a supposed bully.“Katie, here’s the thing with you: If somebody doesn’t have your exact perspective, they’re somehow wrong” he says.
