Katie Maloney-Schwartz and Tom Schwartz on Being Neighbors with Jax Taylor

Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright had been traveling since mid-December. So when they got back to their Los Angeles digs on January 9, the Vanderpump Rules pals were excited to kick back and relax at home. But little did the lovebirds know they'd have quite the cleanup ahead of them, thanks to their prank-happy friends and neighbors Tom Schwartz and Katie Maloney-Schwartz.

How to Watch

Watch Vanderpump Rules on Peacock and the Bravo app.

Jax recorded the prank on Instagram Stories. Walking into his pad, he showed a stack of packages leaned up against the wall, along with a trail of Tom and Katie's headshots leading to his living room. Once in the room, he found that the floor was covered with more headshots. (We hope they were at least autographed!)

"Twenty thousand packages, and then this is what I find," Jax groaned on Instagram, showing off the pictures on the floor.

"And 20,000 photos," Brittany chimed in. Jax added: "What did Tom and Katie do to my floor, with their headshots? My God!"

Brittany also showed the prank on Instagram Stories, and was all giggles. "This is hilarious," she laughed.

Katie shared Brittany's clip, adding the caption: "We are excellent neighbors!" And for Tom, seeing the videos was a funny surprise. After sharing Brittany's video himself, the Tom Tom co-owner admitted: "Forgot we did this." Hm, were some half-shots involved in this prank, perhaps?

In any case, if anyone needs a photo of Katie or Tom, here's just where to find them:
