00:00Growing enterprise.
00:01Who put two businesses at the same time?
00:04The Rogers.
00:05But we let egos.
00:07These bitches ain't on my mind.
00:08We let pride.
00:09I don't want Latrice.
00:10We let competition.
00:12You a black woman, right?
00:14Come between us and divide us.
00:17That ain't your because I can't deal with the negative
00:19type now, girl.
00:20The Bells have gotten away from the agenda
00:22of what we stand for.
00:24I don't want to check and pull for nobody that's
00:26lesser than me.
00:26Latrice, let go.
00:27But I love you, Freddie.
00:29I feel like we can get back to a positive state.
00:32I know some of you probably didn't expect to see me here.
00:35Marie and Latrice hug it out.
00:38The state of the collective is questionable.
00:42There's a question mark there.
00:45Come on, ladies.
00:45Let's go.
00:46I know what you want.
00:49You want some of this money.
00:52You know what I want.
00:54I want some of that money.
00:59I want some of this money.
01:01OK.
01:02Hi.
01:02How are you doing?
01:04I'm good.
01:04How you doing?
01:05Good.
01:06How can I help you?
01:07Is your boss in?
01:08Yes, she is.
01:08May I speak with her, please?
01:09Yes.
01:09One second.
01:10All right, thanks.
01:11I am visiting Goddess Lent for the first time.
01:14And you know, I did visit the old Goddess Lent.
01:16And that's when things went left between Latrice and I.
01:19Honey, clearly you didn't go to the right store.
01:21No, ma'am.
01:21Ma'am, I went to your store.
01:23No.
01:24And if you're selling this type of product,
01:26this is some bull .
01:28But I'm here today.
01:29Since we've decided to move forward,
01:31I'm here to support her.
01:32Rooray!
01:33And I need some edge control for my edges.
01:37Hey!
01:38Come on, come on.
01:39I need some edge control.
01:40I got you. Come on.
01:41Come to the VIP entry.
01:42OK, meet me at the back.
01:43Since the reunion, you know, me and Latrice,
01:45we are taking baby steps one day at a time,
01:49working on being able to co-exist.
01:52Hey, Vivielle Marie!
01:54Hi!
01:56And have real conversations
01:58without the rah-rah and bitch this and ooh-ooh-rah-rah.
02:01I don't have time for that.
02:02So we're moving forward.
02:04Fresh start, new beginnings.
02:07What's been going on, Monroe?
02:09We got the Empress Monroe in here.
02:11Oh, wait a minute.
02:12Put doctor on there.
02:13Good back.
02:14To you, summa cum laude, baby.
02:16Well, congratulations, Dr. Monroe.
02:20But Latrice, when it comes to my personal life,
02:24you have it so together.
02:26So what's going on?
02:27Because I saw you at Taste with Cedric,
02:30and you know, I'm looking outside.
02:33I know, and I'm looking like,
02:34Treece, don't do that today.
02:36Yeah, you.
02:37You had just seen me at Taste with Mars,
02:38while I premiere, I was like, oh, my God.
02:41Please don't let Treece be nothing.
02:43In my personal life, I have rekindled things
02:47with my ex-husband.
02:50And I also have a friend I've been seeing for quite some time.
02:54And I'm just trying to figure out my personal life,
02:57because I don't have it together right now.
03:00I just can't believe that we're here right now.
03:02Like, man, who would've ever thought?
03:04Not me.
03:06She don't know her place.
03:07No, baby, you don't know your place, honey.
03:09She don't know her.
03:09Why you worried about my life, about me?
03:11You worried about me?
03:12I ain't worried about you.
03:13He lost her hair.
03:14I'm going to beat the brakes off her ass.
03:16I'm going to stand here and whistle.
03:17I'm going to let her keep on.
03:19Girl, come on.
03:20Treece, leave me the around.
03:22What you got going on?
03:23Girl, nothing.
03:24Just trying to navigate goddess lens and taste.
03:27Like, it's a lot.
03:28You like to micromanage.
03:30Girl, I am the world.
03:31I am a micromanager, baby.
03:32OK, you the Essie.
03:33Essie, see, that's why I like Essie.
03:36That's why I like Essie.
03:38So, girl, how are things with you and Rateshia?
03:40You know, Glenn is, of course, always at taste.
03:42So I hear from her here and there.
03:44When it comes to business, starting a business,
03:47and maintaining that business, like,
03:49sometimes friends do go to the back burner.
03:53But when it comes to me and Latisha,
03:55right now, we're in a really good place.
03:57Before we leave, I'm having a birthday party.
03:59OK.
04:00So next Saturday, I'm inviting all of the Bells and their men.
04:03I'm celebrating my thriving 45.
04:06You know, I would love to come.
04:08But because taste is so new, and we have an event that we did.
04:12I understand that.
04:13I don't think I'm going to be able to make it.
04:14But that's OK.
04:15You have your birthday.
04:16I don't want to.
04:17That's why you came back here to invite me
04:19to your birthday party.
04:20That's right.
04:20Because you wanted the presence of the goddess, Sarah.
04:22Are we done with the bees?
04:24Baby, I've been done with the bees.
04:25Yeah, you say that, but you still gone from me.
04:27OK, so we going to hug on it.
04:30Or do you go?
04:31Girl, let me see.
04:31Honestly, I like this space.
04:35I like this Marie.
04:36Whatever's different, whatever she's doing,
04:39whatever she has in her life right now, we need to keep it.
04:42This is peace.
04:43And any time Marie Monroe is at peace,
04:45the collective is in a better state.
04:47Peace out.
04:49Peace out.
04:50Peace out.
04:50Yeah, I've been looking all week for this.
04:56I've been looking for this.
04:58Can't stop the heat right now.
05:00Can't stop the heat right now.
05:02Feeling all over me right now.
05:04Yeah, I'm feeling so hot, hot, hot.
05:07I'm laying out candles and roses, and I have oil and a massage
05:12table, and I'm really, really working on my marriage.
05:15You got to .
05:17Who are you doing?
05:18I don't know.
05:19What you telling me?
05:20Lynn is supposed to have a baby, an outside child.
05:25Is this your baby?
05:26No, it's not my baby, Tisha.
05:29We're in a good space, and so right now, my man been good.
05:32So let me show him some appreciation.
05:34I'm about to get dressed, get comfy,
05:36because you know you got a whole table over here waiting for it.
05:38OK, I'm feeling that.
05:40The first of the year, Glenn and I,
05:41we made a recommitment to each other.
05:44So we now will have tough conversations,
05:47and we are really, really focused on working
05:50to make each other better, and not assuming.
05:54Mm, oh, OK.
06:01That's what I want to see, Mr. Pearson, OK?
06:04OK?
06:05It's like no infidelity, no anything outside of the marriage.
06:09If you have to delete it, and if you have to hide it,
06:11then you should not be doing it, and that goes for both of us.
06:14But right now, so far, so good.
06:17Hi, Mr. Pearson, my name is Leticia,
06:19and I'll be your therapist tonight.
06:20Oh, hi, Leticia.
06:21Hi, nice to meet you.
06:22Mm.
06:23And get on the table.
06:25Glenn has been showing up.
06:26Oh, my God, I have to give credit when credit is due.
06:29I just want you to relax for me.
06:31I mean, we communicate.
06:33There's no hiding, no phones there.
06:35Glenn really went back into the oil and gas industry.
06:38He's happier, and he's able to be home every day.
06:41He's been showing up as a dad even more.
06:44Like, it's just been great.
06:45Like, I can tell that he's really, really, really,
06:48really putting in the work.
06:49So tell me about your day, ma'am.
06:51Always busy, just, but I'm more relaxed.
06:54Like, I just feel like more feminine.
06:57I feel like, you know?
06:59You were masculine than a mom.
07:02I know.
07:03I had to be.
07:04Anytime you take a woman out of her masculine energy,
07:09you're going to get a totally different woman.
07:10When she starts operating in her feminine energy,
07:14this is who I've always wanted to be.
07:16I'm glad you're, you know, you that now.
07:19Mm-hmm.
07:20In the past, I've been unable to be in my soft girl era
07:23because the infidelity just took a toll on me.
07:26And it was just so much.
07:28But now this is back.
07:30I'm listening more.
07:31I'm not operating in my masculine energy.
07:34And he's loving it.
07:37You know, looky here, cross it with my legs, my legs crossed.
07:41I'm feeling that.
07:42I don't know why I be so flirty around you.
07:44I don't know what that be.
07:46I'm loving it, though.
07:47It's sexy, for real.
07:50We're in a space now that we can have those hard conversations.
07:53Yeah.
07:54So much has happened, like, just good energy.
07:56You know, I'm excited to work with Carrie, the girl
07:59I was telling you from the Gulf Coast.
08:01Oh, OK.
08:02Um, three restaurants.
08:03And Matt is her husband.
08:05He's an agent.
08:06He's like an MLB baseball.
08:07I'm for real.
08:08But you will meet her.
08:09I'm inviting them to Marie's birthday party.
08:13Oh, Carrie and Matt?
08:14Carrie and Matt, yep.
08:15I'm looking forward to meeting you.
08:16Carrie Paul, she's really that girl on the Gulf Coast.
08:21I mean, she's been that girl to me.
08:23And I just love everything about her.
08:25It's giving bells and pearls.
08:28And I want to show off my new, more feminine self with Carrie
08:32and Marie's party.
08:33Come on, I mean, we done spent enough time with this.
08:36Oh, that's how you feel?
08:37What you mean?
08:38You , that's how I feel, bro.
08:40You're all the time.
08:42OK, OK, let's go into the room then.
08:45Coming up on Bell Collective.
08:47Before we go down this aisle, I was
08:50going to make sure we on the right track,
08:53because you went and got this truck without letting me know.
08:56I'm your fiance.
08:58I'm not your girlfriend.
08:59Like, talk to me.
09:06Let's party.
09:07I just walked in.
09:10Martinis Marie's boyfriend.
09:13Oh, .
09:14How did this happen?
09:16You know, Glendale's the idea.
09:18What's that?
09:20Glendale, not this ,, Gaze.
09:22It ain't easy tryin' to be mean, that's why it's only one of me.
09:31Can't duplicate it, no, no.
09:35Or replicate it, no, no.
09:38It's only one of me.
09:41Today, I am going to my ex-husband Cedric's house
09:46to spend some time with him and spend time with him
09:49in his personal space and not having
09:51to spend time in my personal space all the time.
09:55So is it usually this cluttered and stuff everywhere
10:00when you come over here?
10:01Yes.
10:02Really?
10:04Cedric and I were together for 13 years.
10:07We have a blended family of six.
10:10We share one daughter, Zuri.
10:12Oh, my goodness.
10:14Oh, my God.
10:15And that milk down there is full.
10:17Uh-uh.
10:22What up, fam?
10:23Hey.
10:24Hey, baby.
10:25What's up?
10:25How you doing?
10:26Mm-hmm.
10:29How y'all doing?
10:30Dating my ex-husband, it's new.
10:32It feels new.
10:34The reason why I think there is difference this time around
10:37is because I seen your growth.
10:39Because you're at home now.
10:41You're here in the flesh.
10:43Versus then, you were all over the world traveling.
10:47But now he's just saying, that grass ain't green
10:49on the other side of that fence like you thought it was.
10:52You came right on back home.
10:54That wasn't my mindset.
10:55Well, you thought it was green.
10:57It was green over there.
10:58It was real green, you thought.
11:00I think sometimes you have the right person,
11:03but not the right time.
11:04You stay out all night, and I don't hear from you
11:07until the next evening.
11:09Happy birthday to you.
11:14Oh, my God.
11:17Cedric lost his brother, and that death
11:19brought us back together.
11:22And I must say, I am surprised.
11:24So we're taking things slow.
11:27I can't believe your brother is gone.
11:29Psh, man.
11:30Tell me about it.
11:31It took my brother funeral before you
11:33start treating me nice.
11:36I always treated you nice.
11:39Now, let's be honest.
11:40Now, it was your extracurricular.
11:42Your women was tormenting me.
11:44I take full responsibility and accountability
11:48for my actions.
11:50And I think I've grown.
11:52And I think that you've grown, too.
11:54I have.
11:55She listens to me more now than she ever have.
11:59And she's more open to my mindset, my perspective,
12:05you know, then versus now.
12:07And so I'm very, very proud of her.
12:10Oh.
12:12Also, I have a party that I'm planning for my birthday.
12:17OK.
12:18I appreciate the invitation.
12:19Mm-hmm.
12:20I'm going to see if I can make it.
12:22Sounds good.
12:24In this chapter of my life, I'm not pressing anyone
12:27to do anything that they don't want to do.
12:29You say you may not make it.
12:30I'm taking it as a no.
12:31So, OK.
12:32I invited my other friend.
12:35I know that, you know, we both had our own, you know,
12:37we have situations.
12:39I know you just coming out of a situation.
12:41And, you know, I have somebody that for the last eight months,
12:45I've been hanging out with, going to dinner,
12:48that type of thing.
12:49You know how I go.
12:50Mm-hmm.
12:51I have never dated two men at the same time.
12:55I've always been in long-term relationships.
12:58So, like, I don't know what to do.
13:01I'm stuck.
13:02Kind of like what you were telling me about.
13:04Our ancestors, they had multiple wives.
13:08And so I'm thinking, like, well, if that's the case,
13:12can women have more than one man, too?
13:15Nah.
13:17That ain't how they work.
13:18Nah!
13:19Oh, that ain't right.
13:20Men can do that, man.
13:21I want my cake and ice cream, too!
13:23Wow!
13:37Since the reunion, it seemed like everything went downhill.
13:43I don't went through hell.
13:45I was in a car accident.
13:47After that, I lost two of my fur babies.
13:50One belonged to my son.
13:51Then the girls lost their grandmother.
13:54But now I am trying to get back on track.
13:58Babe, is that you?
13:59Yeah, that's me.
14:00Hey.
14:01What's happening?
14:02My favorite part of the day.
14:04Yeah.
14:05Besides seeing you.
14:06Yeah, that's all you want, food.
14:08And you know how I like my sandwich.
14:10Oh, you're trying to cut up in four pieces?
14:11OK, I'm just making sure you ain't forgot.
14:14Mike has his own house, but he's at my house all the time.
14:18Because I have my fur baby, and if I'm
14:21in his house, I'm like, I have to go home.
14:23I have to let the dog out.
14:24I got to feed the dogs.
14:25But we do go to his house maybe.
14:28How often?
14:30How you saying?
14:31I'm just going to shake my damn head.
14:33That's it.
14:35Maybe once a year.
14:36Maybe twice.
14:38You know, Marie invited us to her birthday party this Saturday.
14:42Oh, OK.
14:43I've been doing this with one of my friends,
14:45making these earrings.
14:46Because, you know, last year was not a good year for me.
14:49The end of last year, from when Treece and Cliff got
14:53ready to open up Taste, you know,
14:55I was supposed to start working there.
14:56Right.
14:57But the car accident happened.
14:59My friend was trying to make a U-turn.
15:03I got a direct hit on my side.
15:06I ended up falling out.
15:08I ended up having a seizure.
15:09I didn't know where I was at after the accident.
15:12And I still have problems.
15:15My back be hurting.
15:16And it's just set me back.
15:19And so I can't work at Taste because I'm
15:21still trying to recover.
15:23And then after that, I lost my son's dog.
15:27And you know what Nola meant to me.
15:29Oh, yeah.
15:30Because she was there when my son was murdered.
15:32Since the accident and since the dogs died,
15:35she kind of been down a lot, you know?
15:37So I had to be there with her, you know,
15:38to make sure she all right.
15:39Which I'll be at the house to make sure she all right anyway.
15:41You know, she kind of coming back
15:43to where she supposed to be at right now.
15:45Mm-mm.
15:48Love you.
15:50Love you, too, now, mother.
15:51I know my lips pink, now.
15:52.
15:54I went to a wedding venue.
15:56Oh, I didn't know about that.
15:58It has a lot of plants.
15:59So I love it.
16:00It's amazing.
16:02And before we go down this aisle, Mr. Foltz,
16:08I always want to make sure, you know, we on the right track.
16:12Because you went and got this truck saying you're
16:16going to get back on the road.
16:18But I'll let me know.
16:20So I've been in a relationship where the communication
16:23wasn't all the way there.
16:25I'm not about to do this again.
16:27I'm your fiance.
16:28I'm not your girlfriend.
16:29Like, talk to me.
16:32You had to tell me what's going on.
16:33Oh, yeah, I was going to tell you, though.
16:34What was you going to tell me, Michael?
16:35You know, I be wanting to make sure everything work out first.
16:38Then I tell you when it work out.
16:41This truck is not the first time you got a whole boat,
16:44and I parked it outside.
16:45I'm not knowing nothing.
16:50Coming up on Bell Collective.
16:52So my husband had this sharp idea to build condos
16:56at the top of stage.
16:58You stay in the condos when I want you at home.
17:00We have females working for us.
17:03So it's a trust issue.
17:04It's very much a trust issue.
17:06You still a guy at the end of the day.
17:08Last time I looked in the mirror, I was.
17:14You had to tell me what's going on.
17:15Oh, yeah, I was going to tell you, though.
17:17I was going to tell you, though.
17:18When? When was you going to tell me, Michael?
17:19You know, I be wanting to make sure everything work out first.
17:22Then I tell you when it work out.
17:25This truck is not the first time you got a whole boat,
17:28and I parked it outside.
17:29And tell me, oh, baby, I got me a boat.
17:31I'm not knowing nothing.
17:33Because we're going to be trying to save up,
17:34so we have this wedding.
17:36And you know it's going to cost a pretty penny.
17:41The venue is going to cost about, I don't know,
17:43probably about $8,000.
17:46I got to get my dress.
17:48Who's ever going to decorate?
17:50That's going to cost a lot of money.
17:52Photographer, we got the catering, the videographer, flowers,
17:58the transportation, the cake.
18:01It's, ooh, yeah.
18:04So we can't be making purchases like this without you consulting me,
18:08without telling me what's going on.
18:10Because, like, it really does hurt my feelings
18:12when you don't tell me what's going on.
18:15And I tell you everything about me.
18:18Sometimes I feel like I am talking to a brick wall
18:21when I'm talking to Michael.
18:22I'm not trying to nag him.
18:24I just want you to talk to me.
18:26If we don't have communication, we don't have nothing.
18:29I just want us to communicate better.
18:33Oh, OK.
18:36So is that a problem?
18:39No, there ain't no problem.
18:41You sure, Michael?
18:43Since the grand opening, taste has been the talk of the town.
19:00Like, it is the it spot to go to.
19:02What was your weight, taste, bar, and grill, 1 through 10?
19:0510 out of 10, baby.
19:11We got a great clientele.
19:13It opens up a short time.
19:14We packed every Saturday night.
19:16If you don't make a reservation, we won't get in.
19:18You know, the Rogers are on top.
19:20It's called keeping up with the Rogers.
19:22Oh, just saying.
19:24What's up, Trees?
19:25I liked it out there.
19:26And here he is.
19:27OK.
19:28What's going on today?
19:29So one in there, cooking up a nice meal for y'all
19:32I think he got some red fish for y'all.
19:34In the restaurant business, it's a high turnover.
19:36I think you're going to like it.
19:37You know, he's a really good chef,
19:38and he's been really nice.
19:39Right now, we're going through another executive chef.
19:43And with another executive chef come different taste buds,
19:45different flavors.
19:46So right now, we're doing a taste testing to make sure
19:49that this chef is up to par.
19:51This is really good.
19:53It's really flavorful.
19:55What do you think?
19:56This is a go?
19:57Yeah, let's go.
20:00So far, I just love everything about taste and how it's going.
20:04How long do you think it'll be before the condos are done?
20:07Probably about three weeks.
20:08So my husband had this sharp idea to build condos
20:12at the top of taste.
20:13You can drink, you can eat, and you can just go upstairs
20:16and relax.
20:17So how are we going to navigate that?
20:18Because now you stay in the condos when I want you at home.
20:25You're always under me 24-7.
20:28Now, all of a sudden, you get a lounge.
20:31If I'm under you 24-7, you're under me 24-7,
20:36who's sweating who not to be with them, me or you?
20:39I don't.
20:40Listen, one thing you know is I don't ever switch you,
20:44ever switch you.
20:44But as a married couple.
20:47Now you're sweating.
20:48That's what I'd be looking for.
20:50Still a guy at the end of the day.
20:51Last time I looked in the mirror, I was.
20:54We have females coming up and through here all day.
20:57Every day we have females working for us.
21:00So it's a trust issue.
21:02It's very much a trust issue.
21:04Most times I ride home with you when we leave, right?
21:07But it's a lot of times that you don't.
21:11Mandy!
21:12Hey, Amanda Panda!
21:14Amanda is one of my BFFs.
21:16I've known her for years.
21:17We went to high school together.
21:19She knows all my deepest, darkest secrets.
21:21Shut up.
21:22Hi, Boots.
21:23Hey, Peggy.
21:24And my husband loves Amanda.
21:28By default.
21:29What y'all been doing?
21:30You been giving my girl hell?
21:32She's been giving me hell.
21:36We was basically having a conversation.
21:38And I'm going to insert Mandy in our business.
21:40I was just telling him as a husband,
21:41I feel like he should come home every night.
21:43And you know, I know with Mandy, because, you know,
21:47of course she just got her divorce.
21:49And this was a lot of the issues that she had.
21:52This isn't my business to tell, but Amanda
21:54has gone through some stuff with her ex-wife.
21:57It's the infidelity, staying out all night.
22:00Like, it was just a lot.
22:02And she just got fed up.
22:03And eventually she filed for divorce.
22:06And Amanda's free.
22:09Well, y'all know I'm trying to get my feedback
22:11with in the dating pool.
22:12I'm excited.
22:13What you looking for?
22:14Which one of your old friends, um?
22:16You said what I'm looking for.
22:17Yeah.
22:18Man, woman, I don't know what you're looking for.
22:20Can't go.
22:21Whoever's going to act right at this point.
22:28Coming up on Bell Collective.
22:30You going to Texas tomorrow, and you claim you told me that.
22:33I told you that last night.
22:35I don't remember you telling me.
22:36On a scale of 1 to 10, my frustration level with Mike
22:41is at a 8.
22:43Can I go into this marriage without communication?
23:06Hey.
23:07Hey.
23:08How you doing, neighbor?
23:09Hey, neighbor.
23:10Hey, neighbor.
23:11The reason why I'm here early to Marie's birthday party
23:13is because I know I said that I may not be able to make it.
23:16But I wanted to show her how important she is to me.
23:19Hey, it's been a while.
23:20How you doing?
23:21Good.
23:22Good to see you.
23:23So, hey, I'm here on time, ready.
23:26Hey, hey.
23:27I'm blessed.
23:28Hey, hey.
23:29I'm blessed.
23:30Hey.
23:31Hey.
23:32Hey.
23:33Hey.
23:34Hey.
23:35Hey.
23:36Hey.
23:37Hey.
23:38Hey.
23:39How you doing, Celine?
23:40Good to see you.
23:41So good to see you.
23:42Honey, I see Cedric.
23:43What the hell is going on?
23:44Because the last time I saw Marie, she was with somebody else.
24:00And it was not Cedric.
24:01Y'all saved my seat.
24:02Oh, yeah.
24:03Speak to a couple people.
24:04Absolutely.
24:05Good to see you.
24:06Glad you can make it, man.
24:07Communication is key, baby.
24:09Listen, in a relationship.
24:10Oh, OK.
24:11And communicate with me more.
24:13Just like we was just sitting in the car before we pulled up here.
24:16What'd you just tell me?
24:17What?
24:18What?
24:19You going to Texas tomorrow.
24:20And you claim you told me that.
24:21I told you that last night.
24:22I don't remember you telling me you going to Texas tomorrow.
24:25Oh, my God.
24:26Oh, my God.
24:35How are you beautiful?
24:36Since the reunion, I have been minding my business, enjoying life, enjoying my career, motherhood.
24:47I've been booked busy and very productive.
24:50Where's the birthday girl?
24:51You know she has to make her grand entry.
24:53OK.
24:54You know my time is very precious.
24:56But it is a great time to reconnect with the Bells and really see where we are right now.
25:02Who got the baby?
25:03And to my mom.
25:04Aw.
25:05Aw.
25:06Yeah.
25:09Nice.
25:10This is very nice.
25:12I'm glad to see Letitia because Letitia and Glenn has been through hell and high war.
25:18And the problem Mike and I are having with the communication, I feel like Letitia is the best person to talk to.
25:26What's going on?
25:27I don't even know where the hell to start.
25:29Oh, Lord.
25:30You know, look, I don't first of all set my wedding day.
25:33But girl, I'm like, I cannot go into this marriage without communication.
25:39Right.
25:40Why Mike don't went and got a boat?
25:42And then he did the same damn thing Glenn did.
25:44What?
25:45He went about a damn 18 wheeler box truck without me knowing her.
25:50You are triggering me right now.
25:53On a scale of one to 10, my frustration level with Mike is at a eight.
25:59Maybe we all need to have a conversation, me, you, him, and Glenn.
26:02And before I say I do and walk down that aisle, we need to fix this problem.
26:09Hey, hey, hey.
26:14My name is Carrie Paul and I'm from the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
26:22I'm more than a boss.
26:23I'm an owner.
26:24Okay.
26:25I'm running three restaurants.
26:27I'm also the mom of a set of twins with their little sister who was born the following year.
26:32Everything y'all got, everything you will ever have.
26:35It's because of God.
26:37Yes, and God working through your mama.
26:40Okay.
26:41And a fabulous husband who is a sports agent.
26:45Matt, it's a pleasure to meet you, sir.
26:47Cedric Astin.
26:48Nice to meet you, man.
26:49This is Marie's ex-husband.
26:52Well, you want something to drink?
26:54Yeah.
26:55Come on, let's go over here.
26:56And then I'm going to introduce you to the girl, so let's sit down.
26:58I don't know how y'all party up here in Jackson, but the party was, I got nothing.
27:03I mean, it was a little shabby chic.
27:05I'll give it shabby chic.
27:07But where's all the guests?
27:08Like, where is everybody?
27:10I was expecting a big rah-rah time, and I'm looking like, huh?
27:13This is Selena.
27:15Should I sit?
27:16Yes, please.
27:18Well, what's going on?
27:19Are you fine?
27:20When are you fine?
27:21Currently, I live in Gulf Coast.
27:23Oh, I love it.
27:24So have y'all heard from Marie at all?
27:27I have not seen Marie since I've been here, but I've seen Cedric.
27:31I've seen Cedric.
27:32Can I have some backstory?
27:34So, Carrie, basically, the guy that you met, Cedric, is Marie's ex-husband, right?
27:38Right.
27:39So they are cool again, but Marie was recently out with another guy that she was dating.
27:47Good evening.
27:48Woo!
27:49Time for the win.
27:50Hello!

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