Vanderpump Rules' Season 11 Opener Makes It Clear Ariana Madix Is Ready to Spill the Tea The segment goes inside Madix and Katie Maloney's Something About Her sandwich shop and hints Tom Sandoval and Tom Schwartz will go it alone for a while as the group remains divided by the Scandoval
These are the best days of our lives, Vanderpump Rules fans: season 11 is only one sleep away!
In PEOPLE’s exclusive first look at the Bravo show's brand-new opening credits, Ariana Madix is showing off the long-awaited Something About Her sandwich shop alongside VPR costar and business partner Katie Maloney. Ariana looks steamy in a plunged-down-to-there mini dress, and it's safe to assume the contents of the teacup in her hand are piping hot.
Elsewhere, Ariana's ex Tom Sandoval takes refuge at TomTom bar with his co-owner pal Tom Schwartz. Season 11 will be about redemption and rekindling for the guys after Schwartz's disastrous flirtation with former now-departed castmate Rachel "Raquel" Leviss, who — it turned out — was actually having a months-long secret affair with Sandoval. Back where it all began, the group's official new No. 1 guy James Kennedy is joined by Lala Kent and Scheana Shay at West Hollywood's SUR (that's Sexy Unique Restaurant to the uninitiated).
And behind every great Scandoval is a great woman — namely, Lisa Vanderpump. Season 11 will see the cast navigate the fallout of Sandoval's affair, which triggered Ariana's decision to end their relationship after nine years.
"If I can survive what I thought was the worst-case scenario, then I can do anything," Ariana said in in the show's extended trailer, which also featured scenes of her toasting with her friends and kissing boyfriend Daniel Wai, whom she met 10 days after uncovering Sandoval's infidelity.
An earlier tease showed that a line was apparently literally drawn in the sand as to who will support Sandoval and who will side with Ariana.
For his part, the "young, hot, single [and] ready to mingle" Schwartz & Sandy's co-owner Sandoval declared himself ready to get back into the dating pool.
At this, Ariana cringed, "The worm is worming."
