Lana said: ‘I’m on completely different stages with Casey and Ron, it’s hard to rule that out, but am I being…?’
Samie replied, ‘Lana, he’s a flirt, he’s a real flirt,’ but Tanya told her, ‘Lana, no.’
Beloved: Lana previously talked to Casey and he told her, “I won’t need to fuck with you to realize what I have with you if it makes you feel any better.”
Safe: Lana said about the fact that Ron (pictured) wasn’t at risk of being dumped in the previous union: “I was glad when they called your name.”

Sensing there was a problem, Lana asked, ‘Why, what are you telling me?’
Speaking of Ron, Samie replied, “I think he’s just messing everyone’s heads up.” She is trying to keep everyone happy.
Lana asked Samie, ‘Is he still trying to keep options with you?’
Samie responded, “He was very clever with what he said and how he said it.”
He then said that Ron had insisted that he and Samie had the same spark that he had with Lana.
Samie added that Ron had said that he wanted to get to know her more if things went sour with Lana, insisting, “I think he’s just as confused as everyone else.”
