Braxton Family Values: Season 5 Episode 8 ‘You Want That Old Thang Back?’ [Weekly Recap]

At Toni Braxton‘s L.A. house, Tamar Braxton is here for Toni’s titties out and compliments the “living legend” on the look.

“Hey titties,” storms in Tracy Braxton. Towanda Braxton notices her boobs were out too, but who is making the drinks? Toni admits she has a dinner date late tonight. That explains the glow. Tamar asks Toni if she knows how to twerk. Her response? “Ladies don’t have to twerk.” Even Michelle (referring to Michelle Obama) twerks! Tamar teaches her to wash her hands and twerk and Towanda holds the cup. Toni proves she can too. Toni Braxton, the closet twerker is back in the world. Toni signs the sisters up for a “real” cooking lessons.

The competition is on. Towanda calls Trina Braxton and she can only come and taste the food because she has some stuff to take care of real quick. The sisters side-eye in wonder. What is the mystery with champagne and chips? That is called Hood Rich.

Trina receives a call back from her “wasband” after receiving her message on her way to the class. She tells him she wants to talk to him about something, but she is still in L.A. He wants to know what about and she wants to do it in person, but she does tell him a hint of what it is about. He drops the bomb that he has some stuff he should tell her too. They agree to meet up in a few days when she gets back. She just isn’t looking forward to telling her sisters.

Tamar shows up to slay and Toni tells her not to take this a** whipping personally after stating she is boss in the kitchen second to Mommy (Evelyn Braxton). Put the chef jackets on and the groups are on.

Trina and Traci tag along with Towanda to acting class because her instructor asked her to do so. Traci is warned to be on her best behavior, because of David’s direction and abrasion. He wants them to participate and Traci doesn’t know what she’s signing up for. Close your eyes and Traci leans too far into sleep. They are invited back again in 48 hours with characters. Trina is here to be supportive, but not to be a supporting actress. She feels bamboozled.

At Toni’s house, she is frustrated after planning a five course meal with her sisters. She knows she is the best chef in the Braxton’s and she plans to prove it. Trina shocks the house when she comes out and admits the conversation she had. Tamar is not here for it at all. The sisters and Mommy have different opinions. Trina confides in Traci on closure. The concerns arise like, WWIII and the public humiliation. She just wants a listening ear and not necessarily a open mouth, but they don’t want to see her hurt again. It’s time to cleanse your pallet and Toni is getting overwhelmed. Tamar wants to know who wants to go half on a pizza. Toni needs a drink while they leave her outside by herself.

The sisters are back and they are some “perfessionists,” according to Traci. Towanda is not 80% present. Towanda gets out of her own head and concentrates and channels on the role. Judith needs a cocktail. Tamar, Traci, and Towanda are at a restaurant where Marilyn Monroe used to be and Traci needs a cup. They re-mention Trina and Gabe and that is not Tamar’s ministry.

Watch how the heated cooking competition/class amongst the sisters went down in the kitchen and check out all that Tamar had to say about Trina’s recent forgiveness below:

On Thursday, will Gabe and Trina give it another go? Then you’ve heard the rumors, now Toni reveals her brand new “bae”. Wait until you hear what the sisters say on WE tv at 9:00 PM ET.
