After a chaotic premiere, the second episode of Baddies USA: Chapter 1 opened with the venue in complete disarray. As cast members arrived for what was supposed to be a group event, they were met not with conversation, but with multiple simultaneous physical fights. Tables and chairs were thrown and scattered across the floor. For OG Bad Girl Tanisha Thomas, who entered amidst the chaos, the scene was so shocking and unfamiliar that she could only describe it by comparing it to a viral, out-of-control spectacle.
Multiple Fights Break Out Simultaneously
The episode, which aired on November 30, 2025, picked up with tensions from the premiere already at a boiling point. The conflict was not isolated to one pair but erupted in several spots at once.
One major altercation was between Rollie (Rollie Pollie) and Smiley (Krystal Borrego). Rollie accused Smiley of bringing up discussions about her late husband, a line she found deeply disrespectful. This accusation led to a physical fight where Rollie demanded answers, yelling, “Tell me why you talk about my man?”. Smiley denied the claims, stating she never discussed him, but the denial only fueled more anger.
At virtually the same time, another fight ignited between Kold Killa and Tinkaabellaaa (Tatyana Williams), adding to the bedlam. The preview for the episode had already hinted that conflicts starting inside the venue would escalate and even spill out into the street and onto a party bus later on.
Cast Reactions to Walking into Chaos
For the women arriving after the fights had started, the experience was jarring. Sapphire Blaze walked in to see her castmates “brawling.” Her immediate, relatable concern was simply trying to find her assigned seat. “I was still walking around looking for my name on the table….. There was a lot going on,” she said in a confessional.
Tommie Lee arrived dressed for an event but was stunned by the riot-like atmosphere. “You know me, btch, I’m always overdressed. But when I came here, I’m like, what the fck! That’s sit was a riot,”* she confessed. Fellow OG Scotlynd ‘Scotty’ Ryan had expected a more subdued scene. “I’m thinking, you know, I’mma walk-in. Some people would be sitting. Maybe there could be a couple people would be, you know, talking it out…Man, the tables was moved. It was a sit show,”* she reacted.
It was Tanisha Thomas, however, who delivered the episode’s most memorable quote. Taking in the surreal sight of fights erupting everywhere, she summed up her disbelief: “We pull up. It was a fight here a fight there…a fight there…a fight everywhere. I never seen no sit like this. And it looks like the Chinese restaurant in Brooklyn.”* This reference to a past, widely-shared viral video of a massive brawl in a restaurant perfectly captured the unprecedented level of chaos.
The Big Lex, Tavii Babii, and Fania Altercation
Amidst the existing fights, Big Lex (Big Lex, Not Da Lil One) initiated another major confrontation. She had unfinished business with Tavii Babii and Fania (Jeffania Cherry). Big Lex walked directly up to Tavii Babii and a physical fight began. Security intervened, but separating them proved difficult, and the two managed to start fighting a second time.
After that altercation, Big Lex called “next,” and Fania stepped forward. Their fight was intense, involving them snatching each other’s wigs. In a later confessional, Tavii Babii expressed confusion over why Big Lex targeted her, stating she was trying to figure out the reason for the attack.

Other Tense Confrontations in the Episode
The episode was packed with other heated moments that contributed to the tense environment. A clash between Summer None Other and Tesehki (Latifa Malone) built from past issues. Summer repeatedly tried to de-escalate, saying, “I’m not fighting you. I like her. I like her,” and later, “Ok, ok, ok. That’s enough. That’s enough.” However, the tension peaked with both women yelling at each other to get out of their faces.
Another significant argument featured Chrisean Rock and Big Lex. It began with a charged group discussion where Chrisean stated, “I know who’s not to touch, and who’s not to touch.” Big Lex interpreted this as a direct comment on her past actions, leading to a rapid back-and-forth that had the entire room’s attention. The confrontation escalated as they spoke over each other, with Chrisean demanding, “Who do I jump? Who am I ever gonna jump?” before security moved in.
Not all interactions were confrontational. The episode also showed Rollie attempting to resolve a separate misunderstanding with Tanisha that had started from online remarks. Rollie approached Tanisha to talk, stating, “You know, I just want to dent it all issues.” Their conversation, which involved clearing up hurtful comments, ended on a positive note with an apology and a hug, showing a different side to the cast dynamics.
