MTV's Jersey Shore: Family Vacation Season 5 returned for another entertaining episode on Thursday night. Apart from the obvious drama, this week's episode left fans in splits after seeing Snooki, aka Nicole, take a tumble after partying.

Episode 22 of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation, titled It's Fine, I Work Here, kicked off with Angelina and Jenni loudly arguing with each other. After finally coming to terms and calming down, the group decided to attend the pool party they had been looking forward to. Sadly for them, by the time they settled down, the party came to an end.

Mike and Vinny arranged for the group to party elsewhere and have dinner. While Mike, Lauren, Vinny, Jenni, and her husband returned to their hotel earlier, Deena, Christopher, Angeline, and Snooki decided to stay out longer. But what turned out to be a long and fun night out ended with Snooki taking a tumble not once but twice.

After spending the night partying in San Diego, Deena, Christopher, Angelina, and Snooki returned to their hotel. Deena and her husband, Chris, were in the confessional room when they saw Angelina and Snooki heading to their room. The Jersey Shore: Family Vacation star called out to her two friends and asked them to join her in the confessional room.

Entering the confessional room, Snooki embraced Deena and called the Jersey Shore: Family Vacation star her best friend. Since they were the only four group members to stay out late at night, they started chanting,

"Dirty stay-out! Dirty stay-out!"

While chanting, Snooki slipped from the seat and fell to the ground. Chris immediately said, "meatball down." Deena leaned over and enquired if her friend was okay. Snooki told Deena,

"I wanna lay here. I don't care. I'll see you guys later."

Deena, Angelina, and Chris continued with their confessional with Snooki on the floor. Following this, Snooki got up and told the group that she lived in the room.

After this, she leaned over Chris to retrieve her phone from the floor. Instead, she toppled over and fell again. The three Jersey Shore: Family Vacation stars immediately rushed to their friends' rescue. A producer immediately made a call and requested a medic in the confessional.

When Chris and Deena enquired if Snooki was doing okay, she told them,

"I'm fine. I work here."

This caused everyone, including the crew members, to erupt in laughter. Fans who witnessed Snooki's fall took to social media to share their opinions.
