Total Divas Island - Total Divas recap for February 22, 2015

Eva Marie and Jonathan are in Las Vegas for Eva's family vacation - the first in 23 years. She is excited to see her extended family for the first time in a long time. Despite the awesome hotel and view, Eva Marie wants to treasure any time that the whole family can spend with her dad.

At Raw, Nikki tells Brie that she has found out two of her famous designers are collaborating to create a $15,000 handbag that will be made in very small quantities. Brie thinks that Nikki has a spending problem, but Nikki says it's her life and her money.

Eva Marie talks with her mom. Eva thinks that her dad is up to something since her family doesn't tell her much about what's going on with them. Eva's mom assures her she'll be the first to know if his health takes a turn for the worse.



Nattie talks with her mom on the phone. Her dad is doing better since going to rehab. As for TJ, Nattie feels she has to keep him at arm's length.

Eva Marie's family has a party. Eva Marie has an idea to make the party super memorable.

Nattie heads to her mother's house...and finds out that the house has suffered from a pretty bad flood. She calls TJ, who says he'll look into a few things and get back with her.



Nattie and her mom clean up the house when TJ shows up. TJ gets right to work, calling somebody up who can help with the flood damage.

Brie and Nikki are at home. Nikki shows Brie three brand new dress, and Brie thinks that Nikki is not being smart with her money and should sit down with a financial advisor. Nikki asks Brie if she's planned the next five to ten years of her life, and Brie reluctantly decides to see one with her.

Eva Marie talks with her siblings. She thinks they should try to do some sort of bucket list for her dad, as she's afraid this vacation might be her dad's last. After some persuasion, they get an itinerary together.

Brie talks with her mom. Mom tells her that Brie and Nikki are completely different, and they just spend their money differently. Brie thinks her mom is defending Nikki, even though she says she's comparing both sisters' passions.

TJ's friend Art shows up to renovate the house...and the house revamp begins.

Eva Marie and the family take on an eight-pound burger challenge that Jonathan wanted to go to. The burger is bigger than anyone can even handle.

John Cena has a big box of mail for Nikki that is addressed to him. It's the bag that she wanted. It turns out that John Cena got it for her, so she doesn't have to pay a cent.

Eva Marie is ready to do more stuff, but everyone else is pretty tired. She announces that she's pre-paid for some skydiving, and everyone is waking up at 7 AM to go do it.

Nikki shows up at a show with the bag and a whole bunch of other new stuff. Brie is shocked, and tells Nikki she could have paid a down payment on a new house with all the money it could have cost to get all of it.

Nattie checks on the house. Things are moving along smoothly with the renovation.

Eva Marie's family goes skydiving. Eva Marie's dad doesn't seem up to it. As he walks away, as does everyone else, the cat is let out of the bucket and Eva Marie's plans are revealed. Eva's dad says he's not worried about a bucket list and talk about him having "one foot in the grave," and he plans to be around for a long time and have plenty more vacations with the family.



Eva Marie talks with her siblings later that night. One of her brothers said the stuff she planned "was off the chain, but it wasn't off Dad's chain." Eva Marie talks to her dad so she can make amends with him, and her dad says that he's been in great shape as of late, especially since Mom is making sure he does what he's supposed to, and that he's not kicking the bucket just yet. Her siblings show up, and Dad says that he really appreciated the effort.

Nattie calls TJ. TJ says he doesn't have to spend a lot of money to replace all the furniture in her parents' house, but he wants to. Nattie appreciates the fact that TJ is making an honest effort in making everything better.

Brie and Nikki meet a financial advisor. Nikki has a back-up plan as a real estate agent after she's done with WWE. Brie, on the other hand, is the one without the back-up plan...and now she looks like the one who isn't smart with her money.



On the car trip home, Nikki says she has plans to buy stock in wine. Brie is down with a plan to invest in a wine bar. They both think about running some businesses on the side in case they leave WWE.

Trinity and Nattie check out some furniture. Nattie says that every problem she's had with her dad will repeat with TJ, as her dad was high-maintenance and gone all the time while she was young. Trinity tells Nattie that she can't punish TJ for stuff he hasn't done yet, and that TJ is really being helpful at a critical juncture right now despite all that the both of them are going through.

Eva Marie's family heads to the racetrack to drive some race cars, which is something that Eva's dad has always wanted to do. The family is happy and everyone is together, something that Eva said is something that her dad always wanted.

Nattie and TJ head back to Nattie's parents house, which looks more or less like a brand new house. Nattie's mom breaks down and is so happy that her house is livable again. Nattie realizes that just like her parents' house, her marriage with TJ is worth salvaging, especially since TJ deserves a lot of the credit for taking the time to make sure the renovation went smoothly and that Nattie's mom didn't have to be out of her house for a long time.
