Jenelle Evans never really comes off looking that great on Teen Mom 2.
And while that’s great for us, consumers of delightfully trashy television, it’s not so great for Jenelle herself, who is actually a real person.
Although she’s been doing much better lately at not getting arrested, she’s still a pretty big mess, and we’ve been seeing a lot of that this season.
For example, in last week’s episode, we saw her follow a stranger to his house and pull a gun on him with her kid in the car.
And while that was more than bad enough, things got even stranger in the season finale.
So. Much. Rage.
OK, so last week, Jenelle did maybe the worst thing she’s ever done on the show, which is impressive, considering all the terrible things she’s done.
The Irony
While driving Jace home to Barbara’s house after his therapy appointment (LOL), a man in a big white truck tried to pass her. She sped up so he couldn’t, then blocked him in and slowed down, because being a jackass just comes naturally to her.
Crazy Meets Crazy
Eventually the guy passed her on the shoulder, pulled in front of her, then slammed on his brakes. Jenelle had to slam hers, and that’s what made her lose her damn mind.
Yikes
She called the police, then followed the man back to his house. On the way, she pulled out her gun and set it beside her, and when she got to his house, she pulled it on him.
An Altercation
He blocked her in with his truck so she couldn’t get away because he’d called the police too, and while she was trying to go around him, she hit his mailbox. When she did get away, he followed her back out to the main road, then finally left her alone.
Bad Move, Jenelle
A cop pulled her over, but as we know now, nothing happened. Though she was scolded by David, which was surprising, because we figured he’d be all about that kind of backwards justice.
Poor Jace
And let’s not forget, Jace was right by Jenelle’s side this entire time, witnessing everything. He was also apparently the reason the man didn’t shoot Jenelle — he said in an interview that he was about to pull out his own gun before he saw Jace in the passenger seat.
Well, Jenelle …
The season finale picked up right there, with Jenelle pulled over. After the police officer let her go, she asked Jace to call Barbara so she could meet them out somewhere — she explained that he was going back home that night, but she’d get him back the next day for the weekend.
So Awful
Jace had called Barbara before while Jenelle was with the police, and he’d told her what had happened, so when they met up with Barb, she asked Jenelle if she really had pulled a gun on that guy.
Ugh
She said that she hadn’t, and Barb told her that Jace had said that she did. So she looked at Jace and said “Why are you telling her I pulled a gun out on him? I did not do that.â€Â
Come On, Girl
Except she did do that, and she knew she did that. She knew that Jace was right there next to her, watching the whole thing, and that there were cameras in her car that captured it all.
Over It
Teen Mom 2 viewers were very displeased.
Oh, CPS!
Here’s a viewer who threatened to call CPS repeatedly until they take all of her children away.
Lying is NOT OK
And here’s one who so sweetly thinks Jenelle can be convinced to be a good role model for her son.
Yeah, You Dumbass
And here’s one who threw Jace’s own words in Jenelle’s face in a pretty beautiful way.
Just Getting Started
But the part where Jenelle accused Jace of lying happened pretty early in the episode … WAY more awful stuff happened after that!
Get Her, Barb!
In another scene, we saw Barbara call Nathan to tell him what had happened. She said that she’d be calling her lawyer the next day to see what could be done about limiting Jenelle’s visitation with Jace even more, and she thought he might want to do something for Kaiser’s custody, too.
What’s Less Than No Custody?
Last year, Barbara and Jenelle had their big court case over Jace — they ended up mediation where it was decided that Barbara would get full, permanent custody while Jenelle would get a visitation schedule. So for Barbara to go to court after already having full custody, she must have been truly troubled by Jenelle’s behavior.
So Gross
Oh, and you know what else was truly troubling? Jenelle’s little rant at the end of the episode.
No More David
At one point, Jenelle showed up to film with David, except he’d already been fired at that point. The producers shut everything down, and then she decided to throw a fit.
Quitting?
“He will film the next season or I’m not doing it,†she told crew members.
Creepy
She said that he’s going to be around forever, so why shouldn’t he be around while she works? She also called him her “security blanket” and explained that he needs to be with her at all times. Totally normal relationship.
Demands
She said that MTV needed to let him film, and also to pay for his travel to the reunions and any other specials. Again, because she just can’t possibly do anything alone.
Yeah, Right
“I have people offering me stuff for Netflix and Amazon right now,” she claimed. “I will do my own thing.â€Â
Suuuuure
Is that true? Has she actually gotten offers from Netflix and Amazon? Nobody seems to believe her.
Free Trial
This could be what really happened and Jenelle just got confused. You never know with her.
Stop the Lies!
Really though, why wouldn’t she? You’d think she’d jump on an offer like that since MTV has apparently offended her so many times.
The Real Questions
Yeah, Netflix, what’s up?
Boycott!
Would you cancel your Netflix or Amazon subscriptions if Jenelle got her own show? Apparently this person would!
Cancel Everything!
Actually, several people claimed they’d cancel their subscriptions over Jenelle and David. That’s how much people despise her.
What Are We Going to Do with Her?!
So to recap, Jenelle could be quitting her high-paying MTV gig over her dumb husband, she was filmed lying about the gun incident and essentially calling her own son a liar when he told her mother the truth, and she could be losing her visitation with her son. Sounds like a good time to be Jenelle!
