00:05Lizzie Marie, you're not finna sit here and try to do this to me.

00:12.
00:13You heard from me.
00:14It's okay.
00:15Come on.
00:16It's okay.
00:17You weren't about that prenup you signed.
00:18Your own with your mother name.
00:19Look at me.
00:20No cameras.
00:21No cameras.
00:22What is the purpose of the collective?
00:24The purpose is a sisterhood where we can support and lean on each other.
00:28We're proud of Latrice for her growing enterprise.
00:31Who put two businesses at the same time?
00:34The Rogers.
00:35But we let egos.
00:37These bitches ain't on my mind.
00:38We let pride.
00:39I don't .
00:40Latrice.
00:41We let competition.
00:42You a black woman, right?
00:44Come between us and divide us.
00:47That is your .
00:48Cause I can't deal with the negative .
00:50The Bells have gotten away from the agenda of what we stand for.
00:54I don't go back and forth with nobody that's lesser than me.
00:57No.
00:58No, but.
00:59I love you, friend.
01:00I feel like we can get back to a positive state.
01:02I know some of you probably didn't expect to see me here.
01:05Marie and Latrice.
01:07Hug it out.
01:08The state of the collective is questionable.
01:12There's a question mark there.
01:14Come on, ladies.
01:15Let's go.
01:16I know what you want.
01:17You want some of this money.
01:18You know what I want.
01:19I want some of that money.
01:20Hi.
01:21Hi.
01:22How are you doing?
01:23I'm good.
01:24How you doing?
01:25Good.
01:26How can I help you?
01:27Is your boss in?
01:28Yes, she is.
01:29May I speak with her, please?
01:30Yes, one second.
01:31All right, thanks.
01:32Uh-huh.
01:33I am visiting Goddess Lent for the first time.
01:34And, you know, I did visit the old Goddess Lent, and that's when things went left between Latrice and I.
01:48Honey, clearly you didn't go to the right store.
01:51No, ma'am.
01:52I went to your store.
01:53No.
01:54And if you're selling this type of product, this is some bull .
01:58But I'm here today.
01:59Since we've decided to move forward, I'm here to support her.
02:02Really?
02:03Uh-huh.
02:04And I need some edge control for my edges.
02:07Hi.
02:08Come on.
02:09I need some edge control.
02:10I got you.
02:11Come on.
02:12Come to the VIP entry.
02:13Okay, me at the back.
02:14Since the reunion, you know, me and Latrice, we are taking baby steps.
02:17One day at a time.
02:19Working on being able to co-exist.
02:22Hey, baby Elmarie.
02:24Yeah.
02:25Hi.
02:26And have real conversations.
02:28Without the rah-rah and bitch this and ooh-ooh-rah-rah.
02:31I don't have time for that.
02:32So, we're moving forward.
02:34Fresh start, new beginnings.
02:37What's been going on, Monroe?
02:39We got the Empress Monroe in here.
02:41Oh, wait a minute.
02:42Put doctor on there.
02:43Goodbye.
02:44To you.
02:45Summa cum laude, baby.
02:46Well, congratulations, Dr. Monroe.
02:50Mm-hmm.
02:51But Latrice, when it comes to my personal life, you don't have it so together.
02:55So, what's going on?
02:56Because I saw you at Taste with Cedric and you know, I'm looking outside like-
03:03I know.
03:04And I'm looking like, Treece, don't do that today.
03:06Yeah.
03:07You had just seen me at Taste with Mars while I premiere.
03:09Girl, baby.
03:10I was like, oh my God, please don't let Treece say nothing.
03:13In my personal life, I have rekindled things with my ex-husband.
03:19And I also have a friend I've been seeing for quite some time.
03:24And I'm just trying to figure out my personal life because I don't have it together right now.
03:30I just can't believe that we're here right now.
03:32I know.
03:33Like, man, who would've ever thought-
03:34Who would've ever thought-
03:35Not me.
03:36I'm just gonna-
03:37She don't know her place.
03:38No, baby, you don't know your place, honey.
03:39She don't know her-
03:40Why you worried about my life, about me?
03:41You worried about me?
03:42I ain't worried about you.
03:43Who the hell has a hair?
03:44I'm gonna beat the brakes off her ass.
03:46I'm gonna stand here, what's up?
03:47I'm gonna be-
03:48Let her keep on.
03:49Girl, on my tree.
03:50Leave me the around.
03:52What you got going on?
03:53Girl, nothing.
03:54Just trying to navigate, guidance lens, and taste.
03:57Like, it's a lot.
03:58You like to micromanage.
04:00Girl, I am the world.
04:01I am a micromanager, baby.
04:02Okay, you the Essie.
04:04Essie?
04:05See, that's why I like Essie.
04:07So, girl, how are things with you and Leticia?
04:10You know, Glenn is, of course, always at taste.
04:12So I hear from her here and there.
04:14When it comes to business, starting a business, and maintaining that business,
04:18like, sometimes friends do go to the back burner.
04:22But when it comes to me and Leticia, right now, we're at a really good place.
04:27Before we leave, I'm having a birthday party.
04:29Okay.
04:30So next Saturday, I'm inviting all of the Bells and their men.
04:33I'm celebrating my thriving 45.
04:36You know, I would love to come.
04:38But because taste is so new, and we have an event that weekend.
04:42I understand that.
04:43I don't think I'm gonna be able to make it.
04:44But that's okay.
04:45Happy birthday.
04:46That's why you came back here to invite me to your birthday party.
04:49That's right.
04:50Because you wanted the presence of the goddess, Sarah.
04:52Are we done with the bees?
04:53Baby, I've been done with the bees.
04:55Yeah, you say that, but you still gone for me.
04:57Okay, so we gonna hug on it.
04:59Are you gone?
05:00Girl, let me see.
05:01Honestly, I like this face.
05:05I like this Marie.
05:06Whatever's different, whatever she's doing, whatever she has in her life right now,
05:10we need to keep it.
05:11This is peace.
05:12And anytime Marie Monroe is at peace, the collective is in a better state.
05:16Peace out.
05:17Peace out.
05:18Peace out.
05:19Peace out.
05:20I'm laying out candles and roses, and I have oil and a massage table, and I'm really,
05:44really working on my marriage.
05:45What are you doing with me?
05:46Hell no.
05:47What are you doing with me?
05:48Hell no.
05:49What are you doing with me?
05:50Glenn is supposed to have a baby, an outside child.
05:54Is this your baby?
05:56No, it's not my baby, Tisha.
05:58We're in a good space, and so right now, my man been good.
06:02So let me show him some appreciation.
06:04I like that.
06:05Get dressed, get comfy, because you know you got a whole table over here waiting for it.
06:08Okay.
06:09I'm feeling that.
06:10The first of the year, Glenn and I, we made a recommitment to each other.
06:14So we now will have tough conversations, and we are really, really focused on working
06:20to make each other better and not assuming.
06:24Mmm.
06:25Oh, okay.
06:31That's what I want to see Mr. Pearson, okay?
06:34Okay?
06:35It's like no infidelity, no anything outside of the marriage.
06:39If you have to delete it and if you have to hide it, then you should not be doing it.
06:42And that goes for both of us.
06:44But right now, so far, so good.
06:47Hi, Mr. Pearson.
06:48My name is Latisha, and I'll be your therapist tonight.
06:50Hi, Latisha.
06:51Hi.
06:52Nice to meet you.
06:53Mmm.
06:54And get on the table.
06:55Glenn has been showing up.
06:57Oh, my God.
06:58I have to give credit when credit is due.
06:59I just want you to relax for me.
07:01I mean, we communicate.
07:03There's no hide, no phone there.
07:05Glenn really went back into the oil and gas industry.
07:08He's happier, and he's able to be home every day.
07:11He's been showing up as a dad even more.
07:14Like, it's just been great.
07:15Like, I can tell that he's really, really, really, really putting in the work.
07:20So tell me about your day, honey.
07:22Always busy.
07:23Just, but I'm more relaxed.
07:25Like, I just feel, like, more feminine.
07:27I feel like, you know?
07:29You were masculine than a mom.
07:32Like, you was.
07:33I know.
07:34I had to be.
07:35Anytime you take a woman out of her masculine energy, you're going to get a totally different
07:40woman.
07:41When she starts operating in her feminine energy, this is who I've always wanted to be.
07:46I'm glad you're, you know, you that now.
07:49Hmm.
07:50In the past, I've been unable to be in my soft girl era because the infidelity just took
07:55a toll on me.
07:56And it was just so much.
07:59But now this is back.
08:00I'm listening more.
08:01I'm not operating in my masculine energy.
08:04And he's loving it.
08:07You know, looky here.
08:08Cross it with my legs.
08:09My legs crossed.
08:10I'm feeling that.
08:11I don't know why I be so flirty around you.
08:14I don't know what that be.
08:16I'm loving it, though.
08:17It's, it's sexy.
08:19For real.
08:20We're in a space now that we can have those hard conversations.
08:23Yeah.
08:24Look, so much has happened.
08:25Like, just good energy.
08:26You know, I'm excited to work with Carrie, the girl I was telling you from the Gulf Coast.
08:31Oh, OK.
08:32The owner of the three restaurants.
08:33And Matt is her husband.
08:35He's an agent.
08:36He's like an MLB baseball.
08:38I'm for real.
08:39But you'll meet her.
08:40I'm inviting them to Marie's birthday party.
08:43Oh, Carrie and Matt?
08:44Carrie and Matt, yep.
08:45Carrie and Matt, yep.
08:46Carrie, I'm looking forward to meeting you.
08:47Carrie Paul.
08:48She's really that girl on the Gulf Coast.
08:51I mean, she's been that girl to me.
08:53And I just love everything about her.
08:55It's giving bells and pearls.
08:57Mm.
08:58And I want to show off my new, more feminine self with Carrie and Marie's party.
09:03Come on.
09:04I mean, we done spent enough time with this.
09:06Oh, that's how you feel.
09:07What you mean?
09:08You .
09:09That's how I feel, bro.
09:10All the time.
09:12OK, OK.
09:13Let's go into the room then.
09:15Coming up on Bell Collective.
09:17Before we go down this aisle, I was going to make sure we on the right track.
09:23Because you went and got this truck without letting me know.
09:26I'm your fiancee.
09:28I'm not your girlfriend.
09:29Like, talk to me.
09:36Let's party.
09:37I just walked in.
09:40Martin is Marie's boyfriend.
09:43Oh, .
09:44How did this happen?
09:46You know Glenn's the NIDL.
09:48Glendale, not this .
09:55It ain't easy trying to be mean.
09:58That's why it's only one of me.
10:02Can't duplicate it.
10:04No, no.
10:05Or replicate it.
10:07No, no.
10:09It's only one of me.
10:11Today, I am going to my ex-husband Cedric's house to spend some time with him.
10:18And spend time with him in his personal space.
10:20And not having to spend time in my personal space all the time.
10:25So is it usually this cluttered and stuff everywhere when you come over here?
10:31Yes.
10:32Really?
10:33Cedric and I worked together for 13 years.
10:36We have a blended family of six.
10:40We share one daughter, Zuri.
10:42Oh, my goodness.
10:44Oh, my God.
10:45And them milk down in school.
10:47Uh-uh.
10:52What up, fam?
10:53Hey.
10:54Hey, baby.
10:55What's up?
10:56How you doing?
10:59Hey, y'all.
11:00Dating my ex-husband is new.
11:02It feels new.
11:03The reason why I think there is difference this time around is because I've seen your growth.
11:09No.
11:10Because you're at home now.
11:11You're here in the flesh.
11:13Versus then, you were all over the world traveling.
11:17But now he's just saying that grass ain't green on the other side of that fence like you thought it was.
11:22You came right on back home.
11:23You're back.
11:24That wasn't my mindset.
11:25That wasn't my mindset.
11:26Well, you thought it was green.
11:27That wasn't my mindset.
11:28It was green over there.
11:29It was real green, you thought.
11:30I think sometimes you have the right person but not the right time.
11:34You stay out all night and I don't hear from you until the next evening.
11:39Happy birthday to you.
11:47Cedric lost his brother and that death brought us back together.
11:52And I must say, I am surprised.
11:55So, we're taking things slow.
11:57I can't believe your brother is gone.
11:59Psst, man.
12:00Tell me about it.
12:01It took my brother funeral for you to start treating me nice.
12:05I always treated you nice.
12:08Well.
12:09Now, let's be honest.
12:10Now, it was your extracurricular.
12:11Your women was tormenting me.
12:14I take full responsibility.
12:17Yeah.
12:18And accountability for my actions.
12:20And I think I've grown.
12:22And I think that you've grown, too.
12:24I have.
12:25She listens to me more now than she ever have.
12:29And she's more open to my mindset, my perspective.
12:35You know, then versus now.
12:37And so, I'm very, very proud of her.
12:43Also, I have a party that I'm planning for my birthday.
12:47Okay.
12:48I appreciate the invitation.
12:49Uh-huh.
12:50I'm gonna see if I can make it.
12:52Sounds good.
12:54In this chapter of my life, I'm not pressing anyone to do anything that they don't wanna do.
12:58You say you may not make it.
13:00I'm taking it as a no.
13:01So, okay.
13:02I invited my other friend.
13:04I know that, you know, we both had our own, you know, we have situations.
13:09I know you just coming out of a situation.
13:11And, you know, I have somebody that, for the last eight months, I've been hanging out with, going to dinner, that type of thing.
13:19You know how I go.
13:20Mm-hmm.
13:21I have never dated two men at the same time.
13:25I've always been in long-term relationships.
13:28So, like, I don't know what to do.
13:31I'm stuck.
13:32Kind of like what you were telling me about.
13:34Our ancestors, they had multiple wives.
13:38And so, I'm thinking, like, well, if that's the case, can women have more than one man, too?
13:46Nah.
13:47That ain't how they work.
13:48Nah!
13:49Oh, that ain't right, man.
13:50Men can do that, man.
13:51I want my cake and ice cream, too!
13:52Since the reunion, it seemed like everything went downhill.
14:11I done went through hell.
14:14I was in a car accident.
14:16After that, I lost two of my fur babies.
14:20One belonged to my son.
14:21Then, the girls lost their grandmother.
14:23But now, I am trying to get back on track.
14:27Babe, is that you?
14:28Yeah, that's me.
14:29Hey.
14:30What's happening?
14:31My favorite part of the day.
14:33Yeah.
14:34Besides seeing you.
14:35Yeah, that's all you want.
14:36Food.
14:37You want food.
14:38And you know how I like my sandwich.
14:40Oh, you're trying to cut up in four pieces?
14:42OK.
14:43I'm just making sure.
14:44You ain't forgot.
14:45Mike has his own house.
14:46But he's at my house all the time.
14:48Because I have my fur baby.
14:50And if I'm in his house, I'm like, I have to go home.
14:53I have to let the dog out.
14:54I got to feed the dogs.
14:55But we do go to his house maybe.
14:58How often?
15:00How you saying?
15:01Try this now.
15:02I'm just going to shake my damn head.
15:04That's it.
15:05Maybe once a year.
15:06Maybe twice.
15:07You know, Marie invited us to her birthday party
15:11this Saturday.
15:12Oh, OK.
15:13I've been doing this with one of my friends,
15:15making these earrings.
15:16Because, you know, last year was not a good year for me.
15:19The end of last year, from when Treece and Cliff
15:23got ready to open up Taste, you know,
15:24I was supposed to start working there.
15:26Right.
15:27But the car accident happened.
15:29My friend was trying to make a U-turn.
15:32I got a direct hit on my side.
15:36I ended up falling out.
15:38I ended up having a seizure.
15:39I didn't know where I was at after the accident.
15:42And I still have problems.
15:45My back be hurting.
15:46And it's just set me back.
15:48And so I can't work at Taste, because I'm still
15:51trying to recover.
15:53And then after that, I lost my son's dog.
15:57And you know what Nola meant to me.
15:59Oh, yeah.
16:00Because she was there when my son was murdered.
16:02Since the accident and since the dogs died,
16:04she kind of been down a lot, you know.
16:07So I had to be there with her, you know,
16:08to make sure she all right.
16:09Which I'll be at the house to make sure she all right anyway.
16:11You know, she kind of coming back
16:13to where she supposed to be at right now.
16:15Love you.
16:19Love you, too.
16:20I know my lips pink now.
16:22I went to a wedding venue.
16:25Oh, I didn't know about that.
16:27I didn't know about that.
16:28It has a lot of plants.
16:29So I love it.
16:30It's amazing.
16:32And before we go down this aisle, Mr. Folks,
16:38I always want to make sure, you know,
16:41we on the right track.
16:43Because you went and got this truck saying
16:46you're going to get back on the road.
16:48But I'll let me know.
16:50So I've been in a relationship where the communication
16:53wasn't all the way there.
16:55I'm not about to do this again.
16:57I'm your fiance.
16:58I'm not your girlfriend.
17:00Like, talk to me.
17:02You have to tell me what's going on.
17:03Oh, yeah.
17:04I was going to tell you, though.
17:05What was you going to tell me, Michael?
17:06You know, I be wanting to make sure
17:08everything work out first.
17:09Then I tell you when it work out.
17:11This truck is not the first time you got a whole boat
17:14and a parked it outside.
17:16I'm not knowing nothing.
17:17Come on.
17:20Coming up on Bell Collective.
17:22So my husband had this sharp idea
17:25to build condos at the top of taste.
17:28You stay in the condos when I want you at home.
17:31We have females working for us.
17:33So it's a trust issue.
17:34It's very much a trust issue.
17:36You still a guy at the end of the day.
17:38Last time I looked in the mirror, I was.
17:44You have to tell me what's going on.
17:45Oh, yeah.
17:46I was going to tell you, though.
17:47I was going to tell you, though.
17:48When?
17:49When was you going to tell me, Michael?
17:50You know, I be wanting to make sure
17:51everything work out first.
17:52Then I tell you when it work out.
17:55This truck is not the first time you got a whole boat
17:58and a parked it outside.
17:59It's like, baby, I got me a boat.
18:01I'm not knowing nothing.
18:03Because we going to be trying to save us,
18:04so we have this wedding.
18:06And you know it's going to cost a pretty penny.
18:11The venue is going to cost about, I don't know,
18:13probably about $8,000.
18:16I got to get my dress.
18:18Who's ever going to decorate?
18:20That's going to cost a lot of money.
18:23Photographer, we got the catering, the videographer,
18:27flowers, the transportation, the cake.
18:31It's, ooh, yeah.
18:34So we can't be making purchases like this without you consulting
18:39me, without telling me what's going on.
18:41Because, like, it really does hurt my feelings
18:43when you don't tell me what's going on.
18:46And I tell you everything about me.
18:48Sometimes I feel like I am talking to a brick wall
18:51when I'm talking to Michael.
18:53I'm not trying to nag him.
18:54I just want you to talk to me.
18:56If we don't have communication, we don't have nothing.
18:59I just want us to communicate better.
19:04Oh, OK.
19:06So is that a problem?
19:10No, there ain't no problem.
19:12You sure, Michael?
19:13Since the grand opening, taste has been the talk of the town.
19:29Like, it is the it spot to go to.
19:32What would you like taste bar and grill, 1 through 10?
19:3510 out of 10, baby.
19:41We got a great clientele.
19:43We open such a short time.
19:44We packed every Saturday night.
19:46If you don't make a reservation, we won't get in.
19:48You know, the Rogers are on top.
19:50It's called keeping up with the Rogers.
19:52Oh.
19:53Just saying.
19:54What's up, Trees?
19:55I liked it out there.
19:56And here he is.
19:57OK.
19:58You know.
19:59What's going on today?
20:00So one in there, cooking up a nice meal for y'all.
20:02Then he got some red fish for y'all.
20:04In the restaurant business, it's a high turnover.
20:06I think you're going to like it.
20:07You know, he's a really good chef.
20:09And he's been really nice.
20:10Right now, we're going through another executive chef.
20:13And with another executive chef come different taste buds,
20:16different flavors.
20:17So right now, we're doing a taste testing to make sure
20:19that this chef is up to par.
20:21It's really good.
20:23It's really flavorful.
20:25What do you think?
20:26This is a go?
20:27Yeah, it's a go.
20:30So far, I just love everything about taste and how it's going.
20:34How long do you think it'll be before the condos are done?
20:37Probably about three weeks.
20:38So my husband had this sharp idea to build condos
20:42at the top of taste.
20:44You can drink, you can eat, and you can just go upstairs
20:46and relax.
20:47So how are we going to navigate that?
20:49Because now you stay in the condos when I want you at home.
20:56You're always under me 24-7.
20:58Now all of a sudden, you get a lounge.
21:02If I'm under you 24-7, you're under me 24-7,
21:06who's sweating who not to be with them?
21:08Me or you?
21:09Listen, one thing you know is I don't ever switch you.
21:14Ever switch you.
21:15But as a married couple.
21:17Now you're sweating.
21:18Is that what I'm building for?
21:20Still a guy at the end of the day.
21:22Last time I looked in the mirror I was.
21:24We have females coming up and through here all day.
21:28Every day we have females working for us.
21:30So it's a trust issue.
21:32It's very much a trust issue.
21:34Most times I ride home with you when we leave, right?
21:37But it's a lot of times that you don't.
21:41Mandy!
21:42Hey!
21:43Amanda Panda!
21:44Amanda is one of my BFFs.
21:46I've known her for years.
21:47We went to high school together.
21:49She knows all my deepest, darkest secrets.
21:51Shut up.
21:52Hi, boobs.
21:53Hey, babe.
21:54And my husband loves Amanda.
21:58By default.
21:59What y'all been doing?
22:00You been giving my girl hair?
22:02Well.
22:03She been giving me hair.
22:04We was basically having a conversation.
22:08And I'm going to insert Mandy in our business.
22:10I was just telling him, as a husband,
22:11I feel like he should come home every night.
22:13Mm-hmm.
22:14And, you know, I know with Mandy, because, you know,
22:17of course, she just got her divorce.
22:19And this was a lot of the issues that she had.
22:22This isn't my business to tell, but Amanda has gone through
22:25some stuff with her ex-wife.
22:27It's the infidelity, staying out all night.
22:30Like, it was just a lot.
22:32And she just got fed up.
22:33And eventually, she filed for divorce.
22:36And Amanda's free.
22:39Well, y'all know I'm trying to get my feedback
22:41wet in the dating pool.
22:43I'm excited!
22:44Which one of your old friends, um...
22:47You said what I'm looking for.
22:48Yeah.
22:49Man, woman.
22:50I don't know what you're looking for.
22:51Can't go.
22:52Whoever gonna act right at this point.
22:54Coming up on Bell Collective.
23:01You going to Texas tomorrow, and you claim you told me that.
23:04I told you that last night.
23:05I don't remember you telling me.
23:07On a scale of 1 to 10, my frustration level with Mike
23:11is at a 8.
23:13Can I go into this marriage without communication?
23:17When you get a little older, you get a little bolder.
23:27And you don't really care what the people gotta say, do you?
23:30No.
23:31Cause you gon' do everything that you wanna do your way.
23:34Yup.
23:35So once you go on here and brush the haters off your shoulders, brush.
23:38Brush.
23:39Brush.
23:40Hey.
23:41Hey.
23:42How you doing, neighbor?
23:43Hey, neighbor.
23:44The reason why I'm here early to Marie's birthday party is because I know I said that
23:53I may not be able to make it, but I wanted to show her how important she is to me.
23:58It's been a while.
23:59How you doing?
24:00Good.
24:01Good to see you.
24:02So hey, I'm here on time, ready.
24:05Hey, hey.
24:06I'm blessed.
24:07Good to see you.
24:08I'm blessed.
24:09Good to see you.
24:10I'm blessed.
24:11Good to see you.
24:12Honey, I see Cedric.
24:13What the hell is going on?
24:14Because the last time I saw Marie, she was with somebody else.
24:31And it was not Cedric.
24:32Y'all saved my seat.
24:33Oh, yeah.
24:34I speak to a couple people.
24:35Good seat.
24:36Good seat.
24:37Good seat.
24:38Glad you can make it, man.
24:39Communication is key, baby.
24:40Listen, in a relationship.
24:41Oh, okay.
24:42And communicate with me more.
24:43Just like we was just sitting in the car before we pulled up here.
24:47What'd you just tell me?
24:48What?
24:49You going to Texas tomorrow, and you claim you told me that.
24:52I told you that last night.
24:53I don't remember you telling me you going to Texas tomorrow.
24:56Hi.
24:57Hi, darling.
24:58How are you, too?
24:59How are you, beautiful?
25:00Since the reunion, I have been minding my business, enjoying life, enjoying my career, motherhood.
25:06I've been booked busy and very productive.
25:07Where's the birthday girl?
25:08You know she has to make her grand entry.
25:09Okay.
25:10You know my time is very precious.
25:11But it is a great time to reconnect with the Bells and really see where we are right now.
25:15Look at the baby.
25:16And to my mom.
25:17Yeah.
25:20Hi.
25:21This is very nice.
25:22I'm glad to see Leticia because I'm in my life, enjoying my career, motherhood.
25:26I've been booked busy and very productive.
25:27Where's the birthday girl?
25:28You know she has to make her grand entry.
25:29Okay.
25:30You know my time is very precious, but it is a great time to reconnect with the Bells and really see where we are right now.
25:34Look at the baby.
25:35And to my mom.
25:36Yeah.
25:38This is very nice.
25:41Hey, babe.
25:42Hey!
25:43I'm glad to see Leticia because Leticia and Glenn has been through hell and high war.
25:49And the problem Mike and I are having with the communication, I feel like Leticia is the best person to talk to.
25:56What's going on?
25:57I don't even know where the hell to start.
25:59Oh, Lord.
26:00You know, look, I don't first of all set my wedding day.
26:03But girl, I'm like, I cannot go into this marriage without communication.
26:09Right.
26:10Why Mike though went and got a vote?
26:12And then he did the same damn thing Glenn did.
26:14What?
26:15That went about a damn 18 wheeler box truck without me knowing her.
26:20Girl, you're triggering me.
26:21You are triggering me right now.
26:23On a scale of one to ten, my frustration level with Mike is at a eight.
26:29Maybe we all need to have a conversation.
26:32Me, you, him, and Glenn.
26:33And before I say I do and walk down that aisle, we need to fix this problem.
26:40My name is Carrie Paul and I'm from the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
26:53I'm more than a boss.
26:55I'm an owner.
26:56Okay.
26:57I'm running three restaurants.
26:58I'm also the mom of a set of twins with a little sister who was born the following year.
27:03Everything y'all got, everything you will ever have.
27:06It's because of God.
27:08Yes.
27:09And God working through your mama.
27:11Okay.
27:12And a fabulous husband who is a sports agent.
27:16It's a pleasure to meet you, sir.
27:18Cedric Astin.
27:19Nice to meet you, man.
27:20This is Marie's ex-husband.
27:23Well, you want something to drink?
27:24Yeah.
27:25Come on, let's go over here.
27:26And then I'm going to introduce you to the girl.
27:28So let's sit down.
27:29I don't know how y'all party up here in Jackson, but the party was...
27:33I got nothing.
27:34I mean, it was a little shabby chic.
27:36I'll give it shabby chic.
27:38But where's all the guests?
27:39Like, where is everybody?
27:41I was expecting a big rah-rah time and I'm looking like, huh?
27:44This is Selena.
27:46Should I sit?
27:47Oh, yes, please.
27:48Hi.
27:49Well, what's going on?
27:50Are you from?
27:51What are you from?
27:52Currently, I live in Gulf War.
27:54Oh, I love it.
27:55So have any...
27:56Y'all heard from Marie at all?
27:58I have not seen Marie since I've been here, but I've seen Cedric.
28:01I've seen Cedric.
28:02Can I have some backstory?
28:04So Carrie, basically, the guy that you met, Cedric, is Marie's ex-husband.
28:08Right.
28:09So they are cool again.
28:11But Marie was recently out with another guy that she was dating.
28:17Good evening.
28:19Woo!
28:20Time for the win.
28:21Hello.

29:04OK!
29:05Sandra told me that he didn't know if he was coming.
29:07But for me, I took that as a no.
29:09I'm shocked.
29:10I'm surprised to see you.
29:11But hey, let's party.
29:13Hi, Ashley, with the mask.
29:15Oh, you're looking so good.
29:16It's so beautiful in here.
29:29You good?
29:30Yeah, I'm great.
29:31What's up?
29:32Martin just walked in.
29:34Martin is Marie's boyfriend.
29:38And I see Cedric greet Marie with this huge kiss.
29:43I'm confused.
29:44I'm, like, literally, I really don't have an answer.
29:49Ced, Martin, Martin, Ced.
29:51All right.
29:52Where you from, Martin?
29:53I'm from Berlin, Germany.
29:55Berlin?
29:56OK.
29:57I am so confused.
29:58I met Martin during the Christmas holidays.
30:04Marie introduced him as her boyfriend.
30:07He was super nice.
30:09Child, Marie got a man.
30:14Breaking news.
30:15Bell Collective Edition.
30:17Marie Moreau has a man.
30:18Yes.
30:19Is he white or black?
30:24I am in a total shock.
30:26I don't know what's happening, why it's happening,
30:28and how it's going to turn out.
30:30How did this happen?
30:32How they treating you?
30:33Good.
30:34Elena, what could I possibly be talking about right now?
30:36I have no idea.
30:37How to treat Marie?
30:40Coming up on Bell Collective.
30:42How the kids?
30:43So you have children here?
30:44No, they were here, but then they went back,
30:47unfortunately, with my wife.
30:48Wait, wife?
30:51Martin is separated.
30:52And you know what that means?
30:53Still married.
30:55Abysmal.
30:56I am so confused right now.
31:02I came here one year ago.
31:03Good for you.
31:04Yeah.
31:05So I stayed all my life in Berlin.
31:09Selena, what could I possibly be talking about right now?
31:11I have no idea.
31:12You need to get over there.
31:14I have two men here, my ex-husband, my friend guy.
31:18And I guess I'll just make the best of the situation
31:22and enjoy them both.
31:24How you doing?
31:25Oh, you look amazing.
31:26Good to see you.
31:28Thank you for the invitation.
31:29Absolutely.
31:30Hello, Jess.
31:31I'm good.
31:32You want something to drink?
31:33Not yet, but there's a bar.
31:36Yeah.
31:37Oh, OK.
31:38I don't know what to say, but I just feel tense right now.
31:40Yeah, I'm small.
31:41I ain't never this tense at a birthday party.
31:44How you feel?
31:45About what?
31:46OK.
31:47Well, that's OK.
31:48What happened?
31:49Feel about what?
31:50I don't know.
31:51I'm just so confused right now.
31:54You need some ice in your drink.
31:57What in the poly is going on here?
32:00Like, weird.
32:02But I don't judge.
32:04OK.
32:05Have something.
32:06Then I go here, get a piece of cake and walk away.
32:08I mean, because everybody, like, everybody confused.
32:11Everybody need answers.
32:13Strawberry margarita?
32:14Enjoy.
32:15I'm going to walk the room.
32:16Oh, yeah, sure.
32:17OK.
32:18See you later.
32:19What you hear over there?
32:20I ain't hear none.
32:22Well, listen, when we pulled up to the party,
32:25that guy was next to us in the car.
32:27I was like, maybe he's with the catering company or something.
32:29Little did I know, he's the guest of honor, apparently.
32:33I have never dated a white man before.
32:36I love black men, honey.
32:38I dated a white boy in high school.
32:40Everybody started jumping on the trend after I dated one.
32:42Everybody else wanted a white boy.
32:43Golly.
32:44I'm an influencer then in the 90s.
32:46I didn't even know they had influencers.
32:47I've heard about the experience,
32:49but I've never dated a white man before.
32:51John Travolta from Greece.
32:53Just the, ooh, the greaser just, yes.
32:56Love John Travolta.
32:58I'm sorry.
32:59One sec.
33:00Can I talk to you for one second?
33:01Oh, yeah, sure.
33:02And I think Marie was asking you to grab something for her, Cedric, over there.
33:05Okay, yeah, let me get a drink.
33:06Come here.
33:07How are you doing?
33:08You were sitting next to me outside.
33:09I noticed you.
33:10Yeah, you're right.
33:11You're right, yeah.
33:12Do I hear an accent?
33:13Yes.
33:14Yeah, oh, yes.
33:15Do you speak Swedish?
33:16German?
33:17Oh, not far away, Germany.
33:18So what brings you this?
33:19Oh, they do good.
33:20They're good.
33:21They're good.
33:22Wait, kids?
33:23So you have children here?
33:24They were here, but then they went back, unfortunately, with my wife, with my ex-wife.
33:28What wife?
33:29Yeah, with my ex-wife.
33:30How long?
33:31Y'all must not be exes too long.
33:32You still can talk about the wife.
33:33We are separated.
33:34Martin is separated.
33:36And you know what that means?
33:37Still married.
33:39We're just gonna have a conversation with Marie really quick.
33:42Marie, how you got a love triangle going on with a man that's even unavailable?
33:46You know, if you're gonna get you a white boy, girl, get you a white boy.
33:49What's that movie where they dancing around and he look like he go with black girls?
33:52Get you one like that.
33:54Martin?
33:56Abysmal.
33:57I am so confused right now.
34:00Okay, here's the thing.
34:02I invited Martin first, and I invited Cedric, but Cedric said he wasn't coming.
34:08But at the last minute, I guess Cedric showed up.
34:11Like, I...
34:12So, Marie, you mean to tell me they don't even know anything about each other?
34:15Well, Martin knows that Cedric is back coming around, but he don't, I guess, don't know who
34:22Cedric is.
34:23And Cedric is aware that I had a white friend died.
34:28But is he still married?
34:32I don't wanna get off into his personal business.
34:36No, that, mm-mm.
34:37That, that, that, that all the hunt.
34:39Yeah.
34:40Harpo?
34:41Who this woman?
34:42Leticia just introduced you.
34:45I don't even know you from a bag of rocks.
34:47Who are you?
34:49All up in my business.
34:51I'm just uncomfortable.
34:52You're just uncomfortable.
34:53Okay.
34:54But, but let me say this.
34:55Y'all go ahead and have this conversation, okay?
34:57I'm gonna step over.
34:58Okay.
34:59You did invite MoGo.
35:00Yeah.
35:01So, you like the drama?
35:03No, I don't.
35:04Ah!
35:05Let's go!
35:06Let's party.
35:07This is a practice game.
35:09Come on!
35:10Come on!
35:11Come on!
35:16Come on!
35:17I love Cedric, and I like Martin.
35:24I'm not choosing one over the other tonight.
35:29I'm just celebrating turning up tonight,
35:31and I'll decide another time, but not tonight.
35:34Hey, let me twist you around the whole time.
35:36There you go.
35:37There you go.
35:38There you go.
35:39Salina, go mighty!
35:40Salina, go mighty!
35:42Come on!
35:43Come on!
35:44Come on!
35:45Come on!
35:46Come on!
35:47Come on!
35:48Come on!
35:49It's so .
35:50It's your birthday.
35:51She busy.
35:53I think Martin takes directions very well.
35:56I think Cedric looks like he takes directions very well.
35:59So, I think anybody that follows Marie's directions,
36:02that's a good fit for her.
36:05May the best submissive man win, okay?
36:16I'm out.
36:20I think it'll be right now.
36:21I'm out.
36:22Let me get loose on the floor now.
36:26I'm off the wall, baby.
36:27Get down.
36:37Mandy!
36:38I am here.
36:40No, you late.
36:41Wait a minute, girl.
36:42No, I'm not.
36:43Don't leave.
36:43Yes, you are.
36:44Today, I'm at my girl's Amanda Salon.
36:46I'm here for my weekly maintenance.
36:49And just to catch up on a little girl talk.
36:51Let's see what you got going on.
36:52Girl, don't do it, too.
36:53Oh, my god.
36:54My late's coming up.
36:56Well, we're going to get it together.
36:58Cliff been behaving.
36:59Girl, we had the conversation about him not coming home.
37:04You're going to have to put your foot down,
37:05because everything that you continue
37:07to allow him to stay at that suite,
37:09you know what's going to happen.
37:10Mm-hmm.
37:11We got so many different females working there.
37:13Not that I'm insecure about females working there.
37:16It's just, I know men.
37:18Yeah, and he married.
37:19He should be coming home every night.
37:25Knock, knock, knock.
37:27Hey.
37:27Hey.
37:29What you doing here?
37:30Hey, girl.
37:30Baby Prada, we're putting it on the street.
37:33You coming to the window.
37:36How you doing?
37:37Hey, baby.
37:38What you mean?
37:39You know, it's an appointment.
37:40Appointment.
37:41Your girl, I relate.
37:42You missed Marie's party.
37:45What's the white guy from Germany?
37:46Martin.
37:47OK.
37:48He was there.
37:49But also her ex-husband, Cedric, was there.
37:53Girl.
37:54Yes.
37:55How was Cedric acting?
37:56How was Martin acting?
37:57They were cool.
37:58But I will say this.
38:00When she does have a man, her attention is not on me, nor you.
38:04Oh, yeah.
38:05And then she's not in nobody's business.
38:07She is focusing on herself.
38:09Like, girl.
38:10See, I can deal with Marie.
38:12I'm glad I do have Amanda here.
38:13Mm-hmm.
38:14How do you feel about the reconnection of Latrice
38:17and Latrice?
38:18Oh, God.
38:19Do not get her party.
38:21I just get it.
38:22With Marie, you know what you're going to get
38:25before you get it.
38:25But with Tisha, she had her hands with everything.
38:28And I don't even see why she's able to deal with her
38:32as much as she do.
38:33We're collective, so we literally have
38:35to be around each other amongst Tisha's husband.
38:38And my husband are, like, best friends.
38:41So I have to do this.
38:44You know, Glenn's in my DMs.
38:46Wait, what?
38:49Wait a minute.
38:50Glenn been in the DM.
38:51What?
38:52I don't know if I can get some of that.
38:54Wait a minute.
38:55You going too fast.
38:57Pressure you been giving.
38:58I did get to you.
39:00My pressure, girl.
39:02I entertain him a little bit because, you know, he black.
39:05He ugly.
39:06He my type.
39:07A little bit.
39:08Oh, my God, this is in, like, Glendale, not this again.
39:15We're in a good space, and it's like no infidelity,
39:18no anything outside of the marriage.
39:21Right now, so far, so good.
39:24And Latisha, she's such an amazing woman.
39:26She does not deserve this at all.
39:29I don't want to be the person who, you know,
39:33everybody knows a situation, and then we're around Latisha.
39:36Like, this is something that I literally wouldn't take to her.
39:39I wouldn't either.
39:40I kept it from you, because I know the relationship
39:42that y'all had with each other, so I would never put you
39:46in a situation to where, oh, you don't know which way to go.
39:49I'm kind of stuck in the middle because Amanda's my girl,
39:53and Latisha's my girl.
39:55I really value our friendship.
39:57You know, I really do.
40:00So where do I go from here?
40:01Like, I don't know what to do.
40:04Because he tried to come at you in a different way?
40:08Like what?
40:10Moving like a single man.
40:13See, this is something she not saying.
40:14But you, you see me, and then you see what he married to.
40:18Girl.
40:19Girl.
40:20Listen.
40:21This season on Bell Collective, we're back stronger than ever.
40:31Hey.
40:32I have never felt so much positive energy
40:34within the collective.
40:35The issue that I was having with my husband,
40:37him not wanting to come home.
40:39He's a man.
40:40The flesh is weak.
40:41Temptation, and you know how these women are.
40:43Honey, I'm home.
40:45This ain't home?
40:46This is home now.
40:47I have lost my son.
40:48It upsets me when I don't know where you're at.
40:50I just want you to talk to me.
40:52There's not going to be a wedding.
40:54This grandmom-ish?
40:55No, no, no, no.
40:56This is timeless classic.
40:57What do you mean?
40:58I'm giving a different world, and so are you.
41:01A different planet.
41:02You need to kind of take some steps back.
41:04Cut the bull , Glenn.
41:05I seen a DM.
41:06Tisha, I'm getting Glenn.
41:07What?
41:08I told you, just stay calm.
41:10What you saying?
41:11I'm saying what I'm saying.
41:13You can't take responsibility, and you
41:15waiting until the last meeting.
41:15Oh, really?
41:17Don't worry about it.
41:18it.
41:19Lord have mercy.
41:20it.
41:21I'm done.
41:21OK.
41:22Man, bro, turn that up, bro.
