The first night of Couples Therapy explodes with an intense fight between rapper DMX and his estranged wife Tashera. Things are no better between Angelina from MTV's Jersey Shore and her boyfriend celebrity chef Chris Nirschel, who argue in the middle of the night and well into the morning. Dr. Jenn and Dr. Mike are able to calm the couples down and accomplish some meaningful therapy in a group session, and that afternoon a new couple arrives that adds an interesting dynamic to the group. Later, after an intense and emotional therapy session, DMX refuses to attend a mandatory group session, and lashes out at Dr. Jenn and the camera crews.
