Fecha de emisión: Dic 04, 2013

Crisis expert Judy Smith, who inspired the popular character Olivia Pope on the hit TV show Scandal, takes on the real-life dramas of Dr. Phil’s guests. First, 39-year-old mother of two Kimberly says the media has dubbed her the “Florida Party Mom” after she was arrested for allegedly throwing an alcohol-filled party with 26 teens at her home. Kimberly maintains her innocence and claims police lied in their report. What does she say happened on the night she claims SWAT teams showed up at her door — and broke it down? And, see home video from that night — why didn’t Kimberly immediately let officers in? Plus, Kimberly says she has lost her job and her dream home because of the scandal, and her reputation has been ruined. Judy offers her tips on how to repair her image and move forward. Then, Soraida says her ex-boyfriend, Bruce, secretly posted her and her 16-year-old daughter, Pam’s, information on Internet escort sites — causing dozens of men to show up at their home, looking for sex. Soraida says Bruce also posted an X-rated video of the couple online — and sent it to Pam and her friends. Pam says the experience traumatized her. Why does she say her mother is partly to blame for what happened? Can this mother and daughter repair their relationship — and reputations? Dr. Phil and Judy offer advice.
