00:00I don't think I'm able to handle Yesel having another baby with another one.
00:06I think right now I just need to remove myself from this.
00:09It sucks that I have to go home and tell Yesel.
00:12I don't want to be the problem, and it feels like I'm the problem.
00:15Hi.
00:16Hi.
00:17I'm going on my first date with someone other than my wife in over 10 years.
00:23Have you ever been with a man before?
00:26He seems like a guy that would be in a play.
00:30You're awesome, but this sounds more like work.
00:32Okay.
00:33I'm just really deflated now.
00:35Is this really meant for us, or is this how it's going to be every time?
00:39You know, I'm definitely excited.
00:41A little nervous.
00:42I'm nervous, too.
00:43Yeah.
00:44Yeah.
00:45I sent Shanae a text asking her if she would come on this date with me.
00:50Shanae's running late.
00:51I'm starting to get anxious because it's not just me and Shanae's relationship that's
00:56on the line here.
00:57It's Angelica and Shanae's relationship as well.
01:02We actually have to have her adjustment of status done or she can be deported.
01:07We have 17 business days left until we hit that 90-day mark.
01:11And it's going to take like 14 of those days to file for her adjustment of status.
01:16So we need to get married tomorrow.
01:18We need the prenup first.
01:20If we can't get this prenup finalized by the end of the day, we are going to be in an impossible situation.
01:27Whereas the parties intend to marry each other and this agreement will be effective on the
01:49date of the marriage between the parties.
01:51Tomorrow.
01:52Ooh.
01:53The address is wrong.
01:56All day it's kind of been chaotic.
01:58Tonight we are finalizing a prenup for Garrick and Lorena.
02:03Because tomorrow we are going to Aspen to do the legal document for Lorena and Garrick to be legally married.
02:11You ready?
02:12Official?
02:13We didn't know if we would be able to actually have a prenup or if they would just have to get legally married without that.
02:20The lawyer that I thought was going to work with us and translate the prenup for Lorena said she's not a certified translator but ended up finalizing a prenup online.
02:31So this guy, what he does is he's a lawyer but he also is a certified translator so he can translate the document legally.
02:38Oh, I see.
02:40I feel a lot more peace knowing that we have something in place and Garrick and Lorena were able to take care of that.
02:46Sister, do you feel ready and comfortable to go forward and notarize it and sign the document?
02:53Yeah, I see.
02:54Go for it, baby.
02:55Of course.
02:56Of course.
02:57Sure.
02:58Sam and Samantha will be here in a little bit to get Leia.
03:16Can you hear?
03:17I really want to start my life with him and with her together.
03:38Oh, hey guys.
03:39Hey.
03:40Hi Emma.
03:41How are you doing?
03:42Oh, hi Emma.
03:43It's been a nightmare today.
03:45Oh really?
03:46We're trying to do the prenup today.
03:48Yeah.
03:49And it's proving more difficult than we thought because we started it online a while ago but
03:53with her not speaking English, it's more difficult because she has to understand it and like to
04:00be valid.
04:01Uh-huh.
04:02It's like a headache.
04:03Basically, we're doing this online thing.
04:05They'll notarize it today.
04:06Wait, can you guys still go tomorrow?
04:08Yeah, we're going to go tomorrow so we'll have this in place.
04:11We have to because otherwise we risk her getting deported.
04:14I was just a little bit shocked.
04:16I would have thought that they would have done more research.
04:19But knowing Garrick and Danielle, they're more relaxed and more laid back.
04:23And they don't always get on top of things right away.
04:26I don't know.
04:27It's a little bit like insane.
04:28Especially because they brought somebody from Brazil to come and now she might get deported.
04:35I don't know.
04:36It's a lot.
04:37I couldn't handle it.
04:38Is this like a legit prenup and everything then?
04:41It's as it is.
04:43I guess I'd just be frustrated if you can't get this paperwork done together and he still
04:48gets married because like me and him being involved in the business together and stuff.
04:52No.
04:53That's in there.
04:54It asks about that.
04:55And like anything that was acquired before the marriage is his.
04:59So.
05:00That kind of frustrates me.
05:04Yeah.
05:05I hear you.
05:06I'm surprised you guys didn't like look into it sooner.
05:09That's probably why they give you 90 days because you need 90 days to do all the paperwork,
05:14not two weeks.
05:17Getting smart there, Sam?
05:18A little.
05:19I have to.
05:20They don't care about this.
05:22I'm just saying like probably that's why they give you 90 days in case you're doing all
05:27this paperwork.
05:28They give you time to do it.
05:30That's probably why they give you 90 days.
05:31Derek said they should give you a year.
05:32I said they should just give you a year.
05:35Yeah.
05:36That's not the way it is.
05:37I have some concerns.
05:39Garrick and I have a business together and if the prenup doesn't get signed properly
05:43and done right, I could end up not having anything to do with the business.
05:48Lorraine has only been here for a couple months and still getting to know her.
05:52And now they're going to be legally married tomorrow.
05:56So I just hope that she's an honest person and really cares for our family.
06:02All right.
06:03Well, we got it done.
06:05Well, hopefully she sticks with the family.
06:07We've stuck together through a lot of tough times.
06:11So hopefully she's down for that.
06:15I believe she is.
06:18You know, I'm just so thankful to God we got the prenup done so we can get married tomorrow.
06:24Me and Danielle and Lorraine are going to head over to Aspen to the courthouse,
06:28get the marriage license, sign everything, and we got to submit it immediately to our immigration
06:35attorney so we can file adjustment of status so they don't kick her out of the country.
06:40Well, I think we're going to head out, buddy.
06:43All right.
06:44Thanks for taking the kiddo.
06:45Yeah, good luck with everything.
06:46Love you.
06:47Love you too, man.
06:48I set up this big date for me and Shanae and she's not here yet.
07:07I'm getting really nervous, to be honest.
07:09I don't really do things like this for anyone.
07:12And Angelica will be devastated and she will look at me like you didn't do enough to make
07:17this work.
07:18work.
07:19Hi.
07:20Hello, beautiful.
07:21How are you?
07:22Nice to see you.
07:23Cold.
07:24What are you doing?
07:25You look cold.
07:26You look amazing though.
07:27Oh, thank you.
07:28So do you.
07:29Are these for me?
07:30They're cute.
07:31And this train like takes us along the coast of Rhode Island.
07:32Okay.
07:33We'll have a nice good dinner.
07:34So this is like a fancy, fancy date.
07:35Yeah.
07:36Okay.
07:37We'll go outside.
07:38I haven't heard or talked or seen Matt for a few weeks now.
07:41And I got a text that he wanted to take me out.
07:42I'm sitting here with a little girl.
07:43I'm sitting here with a little girl.
07:44You look amazing though.
07:45Oh, thank you.
07:46So do you.
07:47Are these for me?
07:48They're cute.
07:49And this train like takes us along the coast of Rhode Island.
07:52Okay.
07:53We'll have a nice good dinner.
07:54So this is like a fancy, fancy date.
07:57Yeah.
07:58Okay.
07:59We'll go outside.
08:00I haven't heard or talked or seen Matt for a few weeks now.
08:05And I got a text that he wanted to take me out.
08:10I'm still really resentful towards him and a little bit angry that he has not reached
08:16out in as long as he has.
08:20But I'm excited to see him and have a good time.
08:24So it's like a ball of emotions all in one that I'm trying to process through.
08:29Is this cute?
08:30This is nice.
08:31How did you find this?
08:33Just looking online, you know, things we should do.
08:37So you Googled things we should do on a hot date?
08:39Things me and Shanae should do on Friday night.
08:42Matt pulling out all of the stops and finding this amazing train ride dinner.
08:47Part of me, it's like, okay, is he really trying to make the effort like he keeps claiming he's going to be?
08:52Or is this just a load of crap and he's just doing it because he feels like this is what's gonna make me happy?
08:58I don't need grand gestures.
09:00I just need genuine and sincere effort.
09:03So, what do you want to drink?
09:06I don't know.
09:07Let's see what they have.
09:09I mean, I'll probably get my usual.
09:11Wait, do you know what my usual is?
09:13I do know what your usual is.
09:15What?
09:16Wine.
09:17What kind of wine?
09:18Red.
09:19What kind of red?
09:21You know who would know what my favorite wine is?
09:26You.
09:27Angelica.
09:28I'll figure it out.
09:29Yeah, when I order it.
09:30Yes, exactly.
09:31When the waitress comes back.
09:34Can I get you something for a drink?
09:36Yes.
09:37How would you like?
09:38She would have...
09:39My favorite, Cabernet, please.
09:41Bravo.
09:42That's what I said.
09:43No, that's not what you said.
09:45Wow.
09:47I would like a sunset margarita.
09:50Perfect.
09:52I'll be right back.
10:02My intentions for tonight are to sit down with Shanae and tell her how I feel.
10:07I'm willing to do whatever it takes to make her feel like she's appreciated.
10:12Me and Angelica, we've already talked about working our schedules out so that I can spend
10:18more time with Shanae.
10:19We'll spend every other weekend together.
10:21We'll try and do, like, once a month, have staycations.
10:25I know it's do or die.
10:26She needs more effort from me.
10:28And if she doesn't get it, then she'll walk.
10:33So thank you for coming.
10:35I'm really glad you came.
10:36Thank you for inviting me.
10:39I wanted to do something special for you.
10:42Part of me is smitten that you put the effort in.
10:46But then the other part is, like, is it too late?
10:50You know?
10:53Is it too late?
10:55I guess we have a whole train ride to figure that out, right?
10:58Like, when you didn't respond to my text message, I didn't know how to take it.
11:02So it was hurt.
11:05So why not say that?
11:07Why not reach back out?
11:09I was giving you space.
11:11What that made me feel is that you don't care.
11:14The reason I didn't reach out is I feel like she didn't want to talk.
11:19You know, maybe you would have responded to the message I sent.
11:24I'll kick myself a little bit about it.
11:32I'm trying to, you know, put the effort in.
11:34You know, Angelica tells me all the time I need to put more effort in.
11:38And I felt like I was hiding a lot of things from you before.
11:43Just the way I felt.
11:47That reminded me of a conversation that Angelica and I had.
11:51The last time we seen each other, you said, you know, like, you have nothing to hide.
11:55And you've laid everything out on the table.
11:58And I asked her if you were seeing or attempting to see other people.
12:07She became emotional and her whole body language kind of tensed up a little bit.
12:12So, have you started dating other women?
12:18Um...
12:22I did.
12:23I went on a date with someone.
12:33It's been like a space villain, you know, just...
12:36How are you spilling space with someone else when it's been space is what I've been begging from you for the last three years?
12:43You weren't available. You didn't allow yourself to get available to me.
12:47How do you know if I was available or not if you didn't hit me up for three weeks?
12:54Randy?
12:55Yes!
12:56I'm Reese.
12:57Nice to meet you.
12:58Nice to meet you too.
12:59Are you a swinger?
13:00I am.
13:02Things have been going so well with Randy, I really feel like there's some type of connection there.
13:08So, do I get to meet your wife? Because I would love to.
13:10Do you want to?
13:11Yes!
13:12How did it go last night?
13:14Uh...
13:15Did you guys have fun?
13:17The conversation with Jackie regarding Yesel not having a baby with another woman didn't turn out the way we wanted.
13:23Tell me how to go.
13:24I'm dreading the fact that I have to break this news to him.
13:28Do you want to do a ring around the Rosie or do we want to come up and spin?
13:43Up and spin.
13:44I thought so.
13:45Ring!
13:47Ready?
13:48Jump.
13:49One, two, three!
13:53Being a mother is everything to me.
13:55That's not to say it's not utterly exhausting.
14:01I am the chef.
14:03I am the maid.
14:04I am the entertainment.
14:07First of all...
14:08Yeah?
14:09Where are your manners?
14:10Me!
14:11Oh!
14:12Saved by the bell.
14:13Who's this?
14:14It's daddy.
14:15You want to go talk to him?
14:16Yeah.
14:17Here, we'll go on mommy's laptop so we can see.
14:19Come on.
14:20The conversation with Jackie regarding my boundary with Yesel not having a baby with another woman didn't turn out the way we wanted.
14:27Jackie is done.
14:29It's over.
14:30It's daddy.
14:31Say hi.
14:32Hi.
14:33Say good morning.
14:34Hi.
14:35Say.
14:36Say good morning.
14:37Good morning.
14:38Say.
14:39How'd you sleep?
14:40Good morning, bubby.
14:41I'm nervous just because my fear of disappointing him is definitely at the top of my mind.
14:50I'm dreading the fact that I have to break this news to him.
14:54Boys are all over you this morning.
14:56Yeah, that's why I utilize the bribery cupcakes to get them just a touch off my back.
15:01Not every day is bribery cupcakes.
15:03Not every day is bribery cupcakes.
15:04But they made them with the nanny while I was out at dinner last night.
15:08So you know what?
15:09They can have a sweet treat.
15:11How did it go last night?
15:13You guys had fun?
15:16A few drinks?
15:18Tell me how'd it go.
15:20We had a couple drinks.
15:22We had some good food.
15:24Okay.
15:25The conversations, however, were, as you know, a little heavy.
15:31So we talked about the whole baby thing about how you, you know, wouldn't be the biological father if she were to have another baby.
15:41How did she take that one?
15:44She didn't like it.
15:45She didn't like it.
15:46She didn't like it.
15:47She felt that it was unfair and she was very hurt by it.
15:53And she was kind of hurt by the fact that we didn't address it with her sooner.
15:59Well, coming clear, if she wasn't happy, how did, what else came out of that?
16:08I, that was it for her.
16:14Did she basically end things with us?
16:16Is it like, was it basically a breakup?
16:18Yes.
16:19She removed herself from the situation entirely.
16:23Well, that kind of sucks now, doesn't it?
16:28Like, definitely not ideal.
16:30It's not what I wanted.
16:32Right.
16:33I don't think it's what either of us wanted, you know?
16:37We knew going into that conversation that there was two outcomes.
16:42I mean, I get it.
16:43I get why she wouldn't be receptive to the baby thing.
16:46Right.
16:47Absolutely.
16:49I guess what I'm getting at is, is there wiggle room for like, from you to like, you know,
16:54I was like, oh, maybe I could change my mind.
16:56Or do you think there's a world where, you know, we all get together again, kind of squash
17:03it a little bit, you know, work out our issues and differences and maybe we get back together
17:10with her?
17:11I, I, like, I just don't see it necessarily being a repairable dynamic.
17:21Oh, okay.
17:25To hear Yesel ask me if there's a chance that I could change my mind and we could get Jackie
17:30back is, it's hurtful.
17:36It's hurtful because I feel like my feelings weren't necessarily considered.
17:43He was just worried about getting her back.
17:46You know, I know it sucks.
17:47I, I hate to disappoint Yesel, but this boundary will always be firm for me.
17:54I, I won't change my mind no matter who we meet.
17:58So it definitely poses challenges moving forward that I, I hope we can overcome as a team without damaging our marriage.
18:06All right, man.
18:07Well, I gotta go.
18:08I gotta get to work.
18:09Okay.
18:10I'm pretty freaking pissed off.
18:11This whole baby thing, this is gonna make our search for a sister wife a lot, lot harder.
18:23And I don't necessarily think it's, it's fair to me.
18:26Um, just because I'm, I'm open to having more kids.
18:44What's your name?
18:45What's your name?
18:46They're right.
18:47Yep.
18:48The name?
18:49Lorena D'Souzio Merrifield?
18:51No.
18:52I have to call him Johanna Hilario Merrifield.
18:55Johanna Hilario Merrifield?
18:56Yeah.
18:57Ah, okay.
18:59You're right.
19:00You're right.
19:01Why are you?
19:02Oh my gosh.
19:03Today is our day.
19:05Me and Lorena are getting married.
19:07Oh, my gosh.
19:09Today's our day.
19:10Me and Lorena are getting married.
19:13Getting hitched.
19:15Hitched.
19:17It'll be official.
19:19Lorena Merrifield.
19:22I've been waiting for this day for, like, six years.
19:25And for me and Lorena to get married, I mean, this is exciting.
19:31I think yesterday was so much emotion, like, so much going
19:35on with the pre-nup and thinking if everything is going to work
19:38and hopefully everything goes smooth today, sister.
19:41Well, today I woke up emotional.
19:46I feel a bit nervous, even because I've never been married.
19:52So, I don't know if something will change,
19:56but I believe that this nervousness is normal.
20:00I feel like I'm really giving a start in my life
20:06to a married woman.
20:14She's coming.
20:15You're bright.
20:17You know, me and Danielle, about five years ago,
20:21got divorced legally,
20:23so we could do this very thing that we're doing today,
20:26be able to bring a sister-wife to America to live with us.
20:30So, it's kind of like,
20:32we didn't make that sacrifice for no reason.
20:35Look pretty.
20:38Gloss.
20:39We've been through a lot of heartbreak
20:41since we started living this way,
20:43and, you know, it's all led up to this moment
20:46and to Lorena,
20:48and it's just perfect.
20:54Sister?
20:56Oh, bonita.
21:05Si?
21:06Yeah, si.
21:09Glossy, of course.
21:10Okay.
21:11Yeah.
21:12Bonita.
21:13Bonita, amor.
21:14Yeah?
21:15What?
21:16Yeah, si.
21:17Sexy, beautiful.
21:19You and sister.
21:20Beauty queens.
21:23Yeah.
21:24Oh, my God.
21:25Seeing Lorena come down the stairs in the white dress,
21:28you know, she looks beautiful.
21:30I mean, we had a couple people that were just bad apples.
21:33So,
21:34it's nice to see the commitment and the sincerity of Lorena loving Danielle and the whole family and committed to all of us, not just something with me.
21:42So, to finally see it, like, somebody coming in and, like, valuing them, that means more to me than Lorraine even loving me, just to see her love the family and Danielle.
21:55Sincerely, that, I'd rather see them loved than even me, so, yeah, just think.
22:05Okay.
22:06Okay.
22:07Okay.
22:08All right.
22:09You guys, did you grab a jacket?
22:10Please?
22:11Yeah, we have.
22:12Okay.
22:13I have a text from Billy.
22:15I can't wait to meet her.
22:17Is she coming now?
22:18Yeah, she should be here any time.
22:19Okay.
22:20I think, honestly, Billy is underestimating what the real emotional impact will be once this kind of starts rolling.
22:28It'll be interesting to see if she stays as cool and calm and collected as she says she is.
22:34Nikki has actually come through and found a new person for me to go on a date with.
22:53This is the second blind date that Nikki has set us up on, and I'm concerned, I will say, because the first date was a big bust.
23:02We were very different, just totally different people, but I am staying optimistic on this date.
23:08Oh, whoa.
23:11Her name is Randy, and she lives about an hour away, so that will be interesting navigating.
23:17But if this date is another bust, I am not trusting Nikki to set us up on any more blind dates.
23:23I chose to meet at a playground for a first date because I'm a big kid, so I know it might not be, like, the first date a lot of people go to,
23:32as a place, but I feel like if Randy can have fun and do this, our personalities will mesh,
23:37and she can get along, and I think it'll be a great time.
23:41Hi.
23:42Randy?
23:43Yes.
23:44I'm Reese.
23:45Nice to meet you.
23:46Nice to meet you, too.
23:47Are you a swinger?
23:48I am.
23:49I mean, I'm a swinger.
23:51Which kind of swinger?
23:52Would you like to swing?
23:53I would like to swing these.
23:55Yes, actually.
23:56It's been forever, and I thought, you know, let's just have some fun and, you know, go back to theโ
24:01Hey, I like the swings and the slide and all of that.
24:04I can't do the merry-go-round anymore.
24:05Right, right.
24:06It makes me sick.
24:07Exactly.
24:08That comes with the age.
24:09Just starting this date, Randy and I are already having a hundred times more fun than I did on the last date with Bess.
24:16She's really cute, she's attractive, she has a really nice smile, so that really helps with the nerves.
24:23This is the first time I've ever been on a date at a children's park before, butโ
24:28Well, I thought, you know, we'd kind of just start out somewhere fun.
24:31Let's go check it out if you want.
24:33Okay, yeah.
24:34When I first saw Reese, I thought, he's cute, he's adorable, he looks like he's easy to talk to, and he is.
24:43So, being on kids stuff, do you have any kids?
24:47Do youโ
24:48I do, I have three.
24:49Three?
24:50A 17-year-old, a 14-year-old, and a 5-year-old.
24:52Wow, so I've got a little bit younger.
24:53I've got twin 13-month-olds.
24:55Twins?
24:56How is that?
24:57It's been crazy.
24:58It's been my identity.
24:59Have you slept?
25:00Not much for the last year, butโ
25:02I've been having baby fever lately, soโ
25:04Have you?
25:05Yeah, yeah.
25:06So, yeah, my wife's been talking about it, too, so she's, like, alreadyโ
25:09I'm like, hey, we've got to chill out.
25:10Does she want another one already?
25:11Oh, yeah, she's ready.
25:12That's awesome.
25:13Yeah, so I definitely love kids, and we want more kids.
25:16Love people that have kids, you know, so that's what, you know, we just love our little community.
25:21When Nikki first told me about the situation, I was shocked, but not at the same time.
25:30I am interested in this dynamic because I've been a single parent.
25:36I've tried traditional marriage.
25:38I've tried dating.
25:40I don't know.
25:41It's hard.
25:42You know, it takes a lot to raise kids, and, you know, it makes sense, actually, when you think about it, because more adults and more kids, and I do love kids, so all the help is welcome that you can get.
25:54So are you looking for one other person, or are you guys open toโ
25:59Right now, we're just going to start with one.
26:01Start with one.
26:02Okay.
26:03I mean, it's been tough.
26:04I mean, obviously, this is not something that everybody's out doing, so it's reallyโit's been difficult.
26:11Once people get past that it's not, like, a sexual thing, that it's a familyโyou know, this is about family, it's not about, you knowโ
26:20So is it going to be sexual, too?
26:22I meanโ
26:23Are you guys open to that?
26:24I mean, I think that kind of will play out as it does naturally there and find its place, but there's not pressure on that.
26:32Yeah, I'm very vanilla, too, I'll be honest, so it's not likeโ
26:35I hate that word, vanilla. Stop it.
26:38I'm sorry, I'm sorry, butโ
26:40No, I know.
26:41But, you know, like, that's not the first thing on my mind for it, you know.
26:44It's definitely a discussion for the later time.
26:47So, what's your wife like?
26:49My wife? I mean, she's my best friend.
26:52I mean, we get along great.
26:54But, yeah, I mean, this was all actually, like, her idea, likeโ
26:57Really?
26:58Yeah, so, she loves family.
27:01Why not just, like, grow our family more, like, grow our village?
27:04Yeah, that's kind of how I feel, too, because it does take a village.
27:08Yeah, and I just don't feel like you can have enough, like, people that love your kids.
27:11Yeah.
27:12And, you know, like, I'm a goofball and stuff, but at the end of the day, like, Iโ
27:15What's best for my kids and my family?
27:17Yeah.
27:18Hearing that this is his wife's idea is actually comforting, because usually, if the male brings it up,
27:24it can cause tension for the female.
27:28But since she brought it up, then I know she's probably not going to be a jealous, angry type
27:34when it comes to relationships.
27:36So, that's actually a good thing.
27:38So, do I get to meet your wife?
27:40Because I would love to.
27:41Do you want to?
27:42Yes!
27:43Okay, I mean, I actually know a place, like, really close by that we could grab a dream,
27:47get it warmer, and if you wanted toโ
27:49Yes, let's do that.
27:50Okay.
27:51She's available right now?
27:52Yeah, yeah, she's not too far around.
27:54So, yeah, if you would like to.
27:55Yes, let's do it.
27:56All right.
27:57Whoa!
28:00I wasn't ready for that.
28:03Things have been going so well with Randy.
28:06I really feel like there's some type of connection there.
28:09It's right here.
28:10You ready for some drinks?
28:11Yes, actually.
28:12All right, let's get it.
28:13I know.
28:14I'm really hoping, like, things go well with Billy and her, or I'm really going to be bummed.
28:20I actuallyโI have a text from Billy.
28:24Yeah?
28:25Meet me and my date.
28:27That's so weird.
28:29I can't wait to meet her.
28:31Is she coming now?
28:32Yeah, she should be here anytime.
28:33Okay.
28:34I'm very nervous for Billy to get here because I think, honestly, Billy is underestimating
28:40what the real emotional impact will be once this kind of starts rolling because it's all
28:46just been an idea as of now.
28:48So, it'll be interesting to see if she stays as cool and calm and collected as she says she
28:54is.
29:10Being at home and waiting, not really knowing what's going on during this date is extremely
29:18nerve-wracking.
29:20I don't want to lose Shanae.
29:23She means everything to me.
29:25She's my best friend.
29:27She's my sister.
29:29She's my heart, really.
29:33Other than Shanae, the closest people I have right now are my family.
29:41I haven't told my family about our relationship dynamic.
29:46They're extremely opinionated.
29:50If we lose Shanae, I have no one to turn to, so I might need to lean on my family.
29:58We really need some good news tonight.
30:02I don't know.
30:03I'm just, I'm so nervous.
30:04So nervous.
30:09Have you started dating other women?
30:21I did.
30:22I went on a date with someone.
30:31It's been like a space filler.
30:32You know?
30:33Just...
30:34How are you filling space with someone else when it's been space is what I've been begging
30:38from you for the last three years?
30:40You weren't available.
30:41You didn't allow yourself to be available to me.
30:46How do you know if I was available or not if you didn't hit me up for three weeks?
30:50I really wish Shanae wouldn't have asked me about the date with Marilyn.
30:55Tonight was supposed to be about me making her feel special.
30:57It wasn't supposed to be about anyone other than her and me and just time together.
31:03How are you available if you're with someone and you're trying to be happy with that person?
31:07You don't know who I'm with.
31:08You don't know what I was doing.
31:09You said you were in a relationship.
31:10We want to pursue your relationship.
31:11I said that I met somebody and that we were testing the waters to see if it was something
31:16that I could do.
31:17Do you really think that I would call it a relationship when I'm still in a relationship
31:20with you and Angelica?
31:21I don't see how that's any different.
31:26Don't bring him up.
31:27He has nothing to do with this.
31:30Shanae's being very hypocritical.
31:32You told me that you've been seeing someone and you've been intimate with that person
31:37and you're upset that I went on one meaningless date with someone.
31:41But tonight isn't about placing blame.
31:43Tonight is about us mending whatever the issue is and moving forward with our relationship.
31:49If I never asked, would I have ever known?
31:52You would have definitely never known.
31:54Why not?
31:57After I made a decision to leave the person that I could foresee something really great
32:03with and stay in the relationship with you and Angelica and really give it one last chance
32:07that's going to break it on me that you decided to pursue other relations with another woman.
32:13There's just been too many arguments and disconnects and time not speaking and time not seeing each other.
32:23There's just been too much of the bad and not enough of the good.
32:28I'm just, it just doesn't feel the same anymore.
32:31It'll just then come up in conversation.
32:34And you think that it would have been received well?
32:36No.
32:37Okay.
32:38Yeah, absolutely not.
32:39Not even being received right away, no.
32:40No, it's not.
32:43I thought we would be able to figure out a way to spend more time with each other,
32:46but now all we're doing is arguing and blaming each other for everything,
32:50and now tonight's just a mess.
32:52So are you interested in this other woman?
32:57Something about me and her didn't feel right.
33:00Her and Angelica didn't feel right.
33:02The three of us didn't feel right.
33:03So Angelica met this person?
33:05Yeah, she met her before.
33:06Wow.
33:09I feel hurt and betrayal from Angelica knowing that she also met this person.
33:15This is my best friend.
33:16Like, I told her everything, and I get it.
33:19She became emotional because she knew if she told me in that moment that it would hurt me.
33:23But I still deserve to know.
33:26And that wasn't for her to tell you, though.
33:30On one hand, I could say that I know her well enough to know that she truly didn't want to hurt me,
33:34and she knew that it would.
33:36But on the other hand, a small part of me just is, I'm angry with her.
33:46Matthew, I don't think I can do this with us anymore.
33:48I don't think, after tonight, I want to pursue a relationship with you.
34:03That's it.
34:04I came on this last date so conflicted and thinking that Matt was going to pull out all the stops for me to get me together.
34:17Not only did I find out he was dating somebody else, but now Angelica lied to me about it.
34:23I just, I can't do this anymore.
34:25I can't do this anymore.
34:26I can't do this anymore.
34:32It hurts to see her cry.
34:33You know, you want to grab her, hug her, tell her everything's going to be okay, but it's kind of in the circumstances that we were in, it didn't seem like that's what I should do.
34:38I don't, I don't, I don't know how to express it or deal with it, but it didn't seem like that's what I should do.
34:48I don't, I don't, I don't know how to express it or deal with it right now, but definitely heartbroken right now.
34:56I think Angelica is going to be upset.
34:57I think Angelica is going to be upset.
34:58She's going to be really upset.
34:59I have a lot going on in my mind right now, so I don't, I'm trying to kind of piece things together and, you know, make sense of what I should do.
35:06And, um, I guess accept things that I don't really want to accept right now.
35:34I don't know.
35:36I don't know.
35:37I don't know.
35:38I don't know.
35:39I don't know.
35:40I don't know.
35:41All right.
35:42See you in a minute.
35:43Love you.
35:44Love you.
35:45Love you.
35:46It is a little emotional.
35:47Somehow it makes me feel a little bit less, like, tied to Garrick.
35:52I don't know why.
35:53And it's just papers, right?
35:55I don't know.
36:04Do you feel nervous, babe?
36:09How are you feeling?
36:10I mean, just like, maybe just nervous and wanting just everything to go smooth today, you know?
36:17Yeah, that's what I've been thinking.
36:18I've been praying.
36:19I probably can't even go in, huh?
36:21No, it's just only...
36:23You two?
36:24Only us two.
36:25They don't want anybody else coming in doing paperwork, they said.
36:29I'm a little upset, right?
36:33Because I would like it to be a beautiful wedding, a big ceremony.
36:38And we had to marry first together, signing the papers, which is different.
36:46But I hope that when we do the ceremony, it's beautiful, beautiful.
36:54My faith in God makes me not worry, but at the same time, my flesh says, like, this is crazy.
37:08You're crazy for moving forward and letting them get married.
37:11Like, that's nuts.
37:13My heart says to trust her, but at the same time, I definitely have my apprehensions about moving forward.
37:19It's not an easy decision.
37:21You trust people and that trust can be taken advantage of.
37:26All right.
37:27See you in a minute.
37:28Love you.
37:29Love you.
37:30Love you.
37:37It reminds me of when Garrick and I got our marriage license.
37:41That's crazy.
37:43A long time ago.
37:51I still have it, even though it doesn't mean anything now.
37:58Okay.
38:00I'm trying not to get emotional, but you know, I know it's a piece of paper.
38:14It is.
38:15But seeing their piece of paper and knowing mine isn't, uh, isn't...
38:23I know it's just a piece of paper, but it still makes me think about...
38:42When Garrick and I got our piece of paper, you know, we were very young.
38:54We...
38:55It just makes me think about all the things that we went through.
39:01And maybe because Garrick and I have gone through so much in our marriage and considered really divorcing each other, that it, like, hits a point in my heart.
39:14Even when we got divorced, it did.
39:16And so, you know, it's really me, I think, trusting Lorena that, like, like, she's not gonna screw me.
39:27That she really loves me, you know?
39:29And our family, and she's in it for all of us.
39:32It is a little emotional.
39:35So, I don't know why.
39:37I mean, it's just a piece of paper.
39:38I know that.
39:39It doesn't change Garrick's heart with me or my heart with him.
39:42I mean, we've been divorced for, like, four years now.
39:46You know, I know that, but...
39:48Simone makes me feel a little bit less, like, tied to Garrick.
39:54I don't know why, and...
39:57I know that's stupid, probably, but...
40:02It's just papers, right?
40:04I don't know.
40:10Has everything been going good?
40:12You want some tea on him?
40:13I would love some tea on him.
40:15Oh, no.
40:16Or the D.
40:17Someone's getting a little excited.
40:20Why is it so easy for you to just, like, joke?
40:24Like, has it been that long already?
40:29She broke up with us.
40:32I just don't want her to feel like I was going behind her back.
40:38I guess.
40:39But I did tell her that we went on a date together.
40:42At one point in time, I thought that Nick could fix me, you know?
40:48Nick's the one I want to be with, and this family is what I want.
40:52Quite often times, you find yourself causing disruptions in the harmony of our situation overall.
40:58I think I'd like to have this conversation at another time.
41:01We're trying to get our family established.
41:03If you don't want to understand that, or you don't want to work towards that,
41:06well then, just never mind.
41:07Miss Merrifield, Mr. and Mrs. Merrifield.
41:17Oh, my God.
41:19I think there's still a lot of settling in to do.
41:22I'm wondering how the future's going to look for all of us.
