Paige shows up to dinner with Alberto Del Rio. All the Divas are kind of dumbfounded that she is so smitten already. She says that she is in love and the rest of the Divas didn’t even know she was with him. So, if you haven’t seen other seasons of Total Divas, let me fill you in quick. Paige has run from commitment from ALL prior boyfriends. She didn’t even want to get engaged to her last boyfriend and had to break it off because she didn’t like him all that much. So, it is a complete surprise to viewers and the other Divas that all of a sudden Paige is in love and with someone they hadn’t even seen her with.
Maryse and Eva go and have a chat in the pool. Maryse tells her that Eva that her and Mike are going to shoot the Marine 5 and Trinity is in it too. Eva gets bummed since she literally not doing anything. Maryse suggests that Eva needs to go talk to them and make them put her on TV.

Renee and Lilian Garcia talk about Paige. Paige is missing live events and Lilian tells Renee that Paige is moving to San Antonio to live with Del Rio. Renee gets mad because she didn’t hear it from Paige herself and feels like she is being different. Renee tries to get info out of Paige and invites her for coffee. So, Renee does this the right way, typically when the Divas get upset they immediately jump down each other’s throats. Props to Renee.
