The reunion pt2 was just JoEllen harassing Rulla
Jo-Ellens reasoning for exposing the details of Brian’s affair all boils down to her need to prove she isn’t a “liar”. It’s disturbing watching her smile at Rulla’s pain and the downfall of Rulla’s marriage.
Rulla is a victim of Brian.
Pretending like it’s the easiest thing in the world to leave a man that’s abusing, at a bare minimum controlling her is so unfair. Added he is the father of her children & cultural reasoning.
Watching Jo-Ellen sit there and grin while picking apart the details of Brian’s lies was not for Rulla, it was only for herself at the expense of another woman.
Being called a liar isn’t as bad as being abused by your husband, dealing with the emotional rollercoaster of his affair, etc.
Jo-Ellen is spooky. Liz was unfortunately correct in reading her as a demon and psycho. Shes nasty.
Rulla may choose to stay with her cheating husband, but bullying and attacking her over it is only putting her in danger.
Why does nobody consider after Rulla + Brian were confronted about his affair (beginning of season), Rulla disappearing from filming in the following episodes might’ve not been her hiding from production because of her ego. It very well could be from his control.
