Danny Booko‘s apology tour continues.
The Valley star is confronted about his drinking by BFF Jason Caperna in E! News’ exclusive sneak peek at the Bravo series’ May 27 episode.
The tense talk comes after cast mate Jasmine Good previously revealed Danny inappropriately touched her and her girlfriend Melissa Carelli while blackout drunk last Halloween (which Danny apologized for during the show’s April 29 episode).
“Jasmine felt triggered by the fact that, last night, she saw you in that state being very drunk and things happened,” Jason tells Danny in the preview. “It’s a little PTSD from Halloween.”
When Jason asks, “You apologized to her, right?” Danny confirms, “Exactly.”
However, Jason notes, “She still feels a certain way about it though.”
Danny’s response? “I had no idea. Now that you’re telling me this,” the actor admits. “I’ll have another conversation.”
In a confessional, Danny—who shares three kids with wife Nia Booko and has a fourth on the way—gets candid about the embarrassment he felt after the uncomfortable incident.
“To be honest, I dealt for a while with shame and disappointment in myself,” the 41-year-old shares. “I don’t treat women like that, I don’t treat people like that. The way I was raised was if you hurt someone, you apologize.”
But when Jason tells his pal, “I still don’t feel like you took full responsibility one hundred percent,” a triggered Danny fires back with, “You’re not making sense right now.”
The conversation escalates as the costars try talking over each other before Danny demands, “Can I talk for a second? Stop interrupting me! Shut your mouth.”
“You just said, ‘You know you have to do more,’ when I have,” Danny continues. “I’ve gone to Jasmine numerous times and apologized. I’m going to do it again. I just don’t understand why you are coming at me implying that I have a drinking problem. That’s just not cool, man.”
When Jason replies, “I disagree,” Danny retorts with, “Says the lawyer, not the friend.”
In a confessional, Danny explains his frustrations with the situation further.
“Where is all this attacking coming from?” he wonders. “I feel like there’s a target on my back and it’s making me question my friendship with Jason.”
See the drama play out when The Valley airs Tuesdays at 9 p.m. on Bravo.
