Welcome to the recap for Summer House Season 9, Episode 10. Last week, Lexi forgave Jesse for #toegate and decided to take her frustration out on Imrul instead. The group then got dinner and a show when Lindsay accused Carl of DMing Lil while they were still together. But Carl ended with a bow when he had the receipts to prove otherwise. Lastly, Paige was still uncertain about her future with Craig. Would she decide to end it once and for all? Here’s exactly what went down in Summer House Season 9, Episode 10: “Flirting with Disaster.”
What happened in Summer House Season 9, Episode 10?

Imrul finally pushed it too far with his late-night rendezvous and got chewed out by Paige and Ciara. He apologized, but would he be able to behave moving forward? Meanwhile, Jesse and Lexi got into a fight over her flirting with West. However, according to Lexi, it was all in Jesse’s imagination. And it also might have been in Jesse’s imagination when he thought Ciara was flirting with him. He told her not to do it, or he was going to get in trouble. Ciara was shook. Would their friendship ever be the same?
Jesse turned the tables on Lexi

Not even Kyle acting like Diplo could distract Paige from the stress she was going through. She said, “I feel guilty that I’m not more happy … I’ve literally manifested the apartment I live in; manifested having a boyfriend who is obsessed with me; I love my career. So, then why am I the most anxious I’ve ever been in my entire life when I have everything I want?”
After Kyle’s DJ gig, the group all went out. Including Lindsay, who wanted to “whoop it up at the club for twenty minutes and then go home.” She said, “Here I am with my ex, at a club pregnant, celebrating my 38th birthday. You can’t write that sh*t.” Lindsay, as always, was doing things her way.
In unsurprising news, Lexi and Jesse got into another fight. Yawn. According to Jesse, Lexi and West were all over each other at the club. Which is surprising, as West’s body language was pretty clear he couldn’t stand her. Jesse told Lexi, “How you were with West tonight was worse than how I was the weekend you were away.” The deflection was real.
Lexi said in her confessional, ”You got your toe sucked by a stranger, and apparently you’re saying that you would have dated our friend that we live with. I was not flirting with West … The hypocrisy and jealousy that’s going on right now is mind-blowing.” But instead of spitting those facts at Jesse, she cuddled with him in bed and said she loved him. Sigh.
Imrul continued to let his freak flag fly by having yet another girl spend the night. But it was one time too many, as his entanglement interrupted Paige’s sleep. And she was pissed.
Carl was vibing with Ciara

The next morning Jesse spun his narrative on why Lexi was a worse flirt than him. He said, “Last night, West was, like, massaging Lexi’s shoulders and, like, dancing and touching her … I think Lexi thinks it’s not apples to apples because she didn’t see how she was being flirty with West. Which is kind of funny because that’s how I felt when she accused me.”
However, Jesse and Lexi’s drama wasn’t on everyone’s top of mind. It was Imrul’s sexy shenanigans. Paige complained to Ciara, Amanda, and Lexi about having to listen to 45 minutes of fake moaning. Imrul had crossed a line. Then, right on cue, Imrul sauntered in. Paige quipped, “You need an STD check.”
While everyone waited for Amanda to finish making Lindsay’s birthday brunch, Carl went outside to talk with Ciara. He spilled the tea that Lindsay checked in on him because of his brother’s passing. At least there was still some goodwill between them. But Carl’s mind was wandering to a what-if scenario with Ciara.
He said, “I want to go back to being good friends with Ciara. The first summer I met her, back in 2020, we had a really good bond, and she was incredibly supportive when my brother passed away. It’s like there’s an emotional intelligence that I appreciate. It’s something I’m absolutely looking for, and I want in my next partnership.” And she’s definitely not into magic.
Ciara announced to Carl she was over Imrul’s lack of respect and rotating door of ladies. Imrul then unknowingly jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire when he left Paige to go and sit down next to Ciara. Like Paige, she had had enough.
Imrul decided to put a pause on his playboy ways

Imrul shared that he had a fun night last night. Ciara responded, “Yeah, we heard you.” Oop. It suddenly felt like he was on trial. Ciara said, “Dude, do you bring home girls like this in your own home? It feels obnoxious at this point.”
But Imrul didn’t want to make any waves. He shared, “I’m not going to keep doing it if it’s bothering everybody. From the ages of six to twenty-three, I was undocumented … A big part of what I’m doing right now is just living a bit more freely than I did before … I want that to be part of who I am because that’s what I’m doing. I just don’t want that to be everything that I am.”
Meanwhile, the lack of sleep did not help Paige’s mindset. She was still pretty anxious. Paige told Ciara, “I always feel like I’m doing the wrong thing. Or, like, I get nervous that me and Craig are going to break up … that everything I have will go away.”
On a lighter note, it was finally time for Lindsay’s birthday brunch. A producer asked if she thought this was where she would be at 38. Lindsay cackled, “I think that timeline ended at like 36.” She joked that they kept flashing back to her life plan that she had written and she was never going to hear the end of it. And life definitely never goes as planned.
Lexi spilled the tea to producers that Jesse has said he loved her for “a long time,” and he first said it on day 11. And what are they on now, day 12? The catch was he said it when no one was around. Red flags kept getting thrown at Lexi, and she continued to ignore them.
Ciara and Jesse’s friendship was on the rocks

Jesse met up with the group at the American Cancer Society Hope Lodge to serve dinner to those who were receiving cancer treatment. He shared about his cancer experience, “It’s one of the best things that ever happened to me in a weird way. It’s just hard to see it like that now. But life is so much sweeter on the other side.”
After dinner, Ciara was joking around with Carl and Jesse. Carl shared the news he “finally broke his streak” and had hooked up with a girl. Lindsay would be thrilled.
They were all playing around, and Ciara leaned on Jesse. Suddenly, Jesse snapped, “Ciara, enough with the touching!” She said, “Wait, really?” Jesse said he had gotten into trouble. But Ciara was in shock at his response.
Later on, Ciara met up with Paige and Amanda at a rooftop restaurant. Paige dished that Craig had come to visit, but they just rehashed their same conversation. So, she decided to deal with her “emotional problems” after the tour.
Ciara then filled them in on what Jesse said to her. In her confessional, she said, “This motherf*cker has some nerve to tell me not to touch him … You’ve been all up in my sh*t all summer. But ok, I see you.”
She told the girls she didn’t even want Jesse in her room. Ciara said, “Don’t even come around … You know how I am. If you really want to play that game, your feelings will be hurt at the end of the day. Like, I won’t even look at you.”
Summer House continues Wednesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
