"They did," Jayne told him. "And I said no, because I have nothing to hide."
Jayne said her lawyers had warned her that anything she said on the show could be used against her in court. "Whether it is true or not, it almost doesn't even matter at this point," she said.
"But I'm not a quitter," she continued. "And I wanted to honor my commitment. I wasn't going to run away from what's coming at me."
"Why should I be fired?" she said. "Why are you presuming I've done something? Why aren't we letting the legal process play out? Give me a chance to defend myself. I'm ready for the challenge, watch me do it."
The reunion wasn't all serious. When Cohen asked Jayne what look she had been going for with her outfit, she replied: "Hot. Single."
Cohen then asked Jayne what kind of man she was looking for.
"Somebody with a big penis," she quipped. "I would like some hot sex."

In a preview for part two of the reunion - which airs next week - Cohen also asks Jayne about her claims that Girardi had been cheating on her before she filed for divorce.
"I said to Tom, 'If you're in love with someone else, divorce me and go be with her,"' she told Cohen, adding that Girardi said "nothing" in response to that.
