On Thursday’s episode ofThe Kardashians, the 42-year-old reality star dispelled some of the “ridiculous” rumors surrounding the famous family while having dinner and drinks with her sisterKhloé Kardashian, 39, andScott Disick, 40.

“Have you heard some of these ridiculous rumors that are like written [and] said about you guys?” Scott began, referencing a clip from an episode of the reality show that went viral. “Just like the dumbest rumors are saying that they’re [using] CGI [and] putting tears in Kim’s face.”

Khloé admitted to seeing news reports about the conspiracy, explaining that Kim was in an emotional confessional interview when she dabbed the corner of her eyes though her tear was “perfectly centered” on her face.

“Who would CGI a tear?” Kim asked incredulously as Khloé replied. “Obviously, we know that it’s some f—ing loser that has all this time on their hands.”

Scott moved on to the next rumor and read, “Khloé has fake fingertips?”

According to the Good American founder, the gossip around her digits began when she held a glass on an episode of the reality series and fans claimed that her fingers were too long and oddly shaped.

“You guys I do not have fake fingers, this looks crazy,” she said, before questioning. “Those are just my hands! First of all, why would anyone wear fake fingers?”

The trio also addressed the “Kardashian curse,” a longstanding conspiracy theory that Armenian witches granted the women in the Kardashian bloodline money and fame but misfortune on every man who falls in love with them.

“This is wild,” Scott laughed as Khloé pulled up a TikTok video explaining the theory and Kim joked, “Ugh, guys should I never date?”

“Let me tell you something,” Khloé said, explaining how the rumors about their relationship were based on double standards. “This is where it’s f—ed up. It’s super sexist. Why can society blame us girls but they could never blame men?”

The mom of two then seemingly referred to her past relationships withLamar OdomandTristan Thompson, explaining that the “Kardashian curse” wasn’t responsible for their issues withaddictionandinfidelity.

When Kim claimed she wished some of their exes would “come to our defense,” Scott took a stand and admitted he was responsible for making his own mistakes when it came to his relationship withKourtney Kardashian.

After Kim requested he “look into the camera” and make a public acknowledgment, “Hey everybody,” Scott began. “I’m pretty sure you’ve watched every season since we’ve started the show, and I f—ed up a lot.”

“Thank you Lamar,” she said directly to camera. “Thank you for always coming to our defense. Thank you for just keeping it real.”
