00:01Miss Merrifield? Mr. and Mrs. Merrifield?
00:07Now, I am Merrifield.
00:10I think there's still a lot of settling in to do.
00:14I'm wondering how the future's gonna look for all of us.
00:19Has everything been going good? You want some tea on him?
00:22Give me the tea on...
00:23Or the D.
00:26I am feeling jealous.
00:27There is a bit of me that's like, oof, someone's getting a little...
00:31I'm sorry. I'm excited.
00:33Billie shows facial expressions that she's not comfortable.
00:37I want to believe that she won't be jealous, but we never know.
00:43How did it go last night?
00:45The conversation with Jackie regarding my boundary with Yesel not having a baby with another woman
00:51didn't turn out the way we wanted.
00:54Yes.
00:55Well, that kind of sucks now, doesn't it?
01:00I don't think after tonight I want to pursue a relationship with you.
01:04So that's her.
01:06She broke up with us.
01:10Okay.
01:12I haven't told my family about our relationship dynamic.
01:16They're extremely opinionated, but with Shanae being gone, I might need to lean on my family.
01:22The way that you are about yourself, Theresa, it's causing disruptions in the harmony of our situation overall.
01:32I think they are getting tired of me running away and not addressing the issues when they bring them up.
01:38We have reached a sort of a crossroads.
01:42I know. I got you.
01:43I'm going to go take a moment.
01:47I'm sitting here trying to have an adult conversation.
01:48If you want to get up and act all flustered, all extra, just get the up and go then.
01:53All right, you ready?
01:54You're heading straight for that bar.
01:55I'm definitely going to need a shot of liquid curry.
02:00Why are you so anxious?
02:01Today is our second date with Randy and Billy's coming with.
02:05All right, you ready?
02:13We're heading straight for that bar.
02:16I'm definitely going to need a shot of liquid curry.
02:19Why are you so anxious?
02:21Today is our second date with Randy, and Billy's coming with.
02:25And I'm super excited to see her again and kind of see where her head's at and where this is all heading.
02:33How are you doing?
02:34Hey, I'm doing great. How about yourself?
02:35Good.
02:36Good, good, good.
02:37We're going to start with a shot.
02:38Yeah, I guess we'll go big or go home.
02:41I want tequila.
02:43And whiskey, please.
02:44All right.
02:45Now that these feelings of jealousy have hit me, I'm anxious to see Randy again.
02:52But at the same time, Reese is super excited.
02:56I don't want to let him down.
02:58He's already got emotions invested.
03:00And obviously, he sees something in her.
03:03Cheers.
03:04Cheers.
03:06So, I want to give it a shot.
03:09My favorite.
03:12Give us.
03:12Oh, my gosh.
03:13Oh, careful, careful, careful.
03:15All right.
03:16Go first.
03:17Oh, I get to go first?
03:18Yeah.
03:18How are you feeling?
03:19Well, I'm really anxious.
03:20So, I mean, obviously, she's kind of interested.
03:25I don't know how this is going to go.
03:27Just pull off the Band-Aid.
03:28I did.
03:30I did it.
03:31Good job.
03:32How about you?
03:32How are you feeling?
03:33I'm more concerned about you.
03:35We just have to make sure we're on the same page.
03:37You know?
03:37Hello.
03:40Hello.
03:40Hey.
03:42How are you?
03:43Good to see you.
03:45Hello.
03:47You doing okay?
03:48Yeah.
03:49Yeah, I'm doing okay.
03:50You guys are playing Jenga.
03:51You're playing a game.
03:53So, I had a great time with Reese on the first date.
03:57He seems like a great guy, but there are some concerns that I have with Billy that I think
04:03need to definitely be addressed.
04:06So, how's the babies?
04:07How's the kids?
04:08Good.
04:09Getting big.
04:10Oh, my gosh.
04:10You're so cute.
04:11It's crazy.
04:12I was looking at pictures from a year ago, and they just look so different.
04:15And it's only a year.
04:17So, how are you guys feeling, like, with everything's...
04:21I feel like, um, like, I love being able to get to know you and, like, being able to
04:27message you, and, because now, like, you totally understand him, so I have somebody that I can
04:31relate to.
04:32I know, like, she's had some questions, too.
04:35Yeah, and me, too.
04:36And, um...
04:37Shoot, ask away.
04:38Yeah, I was just wondering, like, how you feel about some things, because it felt like
04:45last time we met that maybe you were uncomfortable.
04:48Got the vibe that maybe it was just, like, not for you, or you weren't sure about me,
04:57or just the whole situation in general.
05:02I really didn't even want to come back.
05:06Oh.
05:06I, about, I, like, basically wanted to cut off contact because of it.
05:13Because of my reaction.
05:14Yeah.
05:15Oh, okay.
05:18Knowing that Billy did feel jealous, I'm not surprised that Randy is feeling this way.
05:23I would be really disappointed if we had to end things with Randy because of these feelings.
05:30I mean, we've put all this effort, I have put a lot of emotion, a lot of time and energy,
05:36and for it to all just kind of be flushed away is really defeating.
05:41This is why Mommy's a nurse and not a cake decorator.
06:04I'm gonna let it slide because you're cute.
06:06Are you excited for Daddy to come home?
06:09No.
06:10Today's finally the day.
06:12Yessel comes home, and I'm super excited.
06:16But I would say this homecoming feels a little bit more awkward than most because we need
06:21to address that things didn't work out with Jackie, which sucks a little bit.
06:28Daddy's gonna be home in, like, 45 minutes, dude.
06:32So Mommy's gotta get cooking, okay?
06:35I don't want negative feelings to fester or, like, resentment or anything.
06:39It feels like it might be a little bit in that arena, which is scary.
06:48So I feel like I kind of, like...
06:53This is why I'm excited for your Daddy to be home.
07:01It's been a long couple of days of traveling.
07:12I am jet-lagged.
07:13Also, I am feeling a little bit cranky about how it was handled with Jackie.
07:21We've had our struggle with seeking a sister-wife, obviously.
07:26Oh.
07:26It just didn't really work out with Jackie.
07:28So it's just one of those things that it sucks, especially because it happened while I was away.
07:36Shortly after Danny and Jackie had that conversation, Jackie did reach out to me.
07:42She immediately let me know how very disappointed she was.
07:48Danny and I haven't really talked about what happened at that dinner or after.
07:53I am feeling a little bit bitter.
07:57We have to really hash this out.
07:59So we're back on the same page.
08:02And just, there's no more awkwardness between us.
08:06Daddy.
08:07Hi, boy.
08:09Oh, my goodness.
08:10Go get home.
08:11Go get home.
08:12Go get home.
08:12Hi, Bobby.
08:13Good job.
08:14Hi.
08:15He's a big boy.
08:33Isn't he heavy?
08:34I am so excited to see Danny and the boys.
08:37Coming home is always one of the best days of the year, I guess one could say.
08:49Oh, yeah.
08:51Thank you, babe.
08:52You're welcome.
08:54Good luck.
08:55I'm about to bust this food down.
08:56I am really hungry.
08:57This is mine.
09:00Where's your guys' food?
09:02Okay.
09:03Did you make some for you?
09:04You know how hard I worked making all of that with your two children running around in the kitchen?
09:09With, like, no other adult help?
09:12I mean...
09:14What?
09:15To be fair.
09:16Mm-hmm.
09:17We could have had a little adult help.
09:22Ooh.
09:23You know.
09:23Mm-hmm.
09:26Uh-huh.
09:27I want to go to my mom.
09:29JJ, JJ, JJ.
09:30No, no.
09:30I could have.
09:36Watch that one, huh?
09:38Are you mad about it?
09:39Are you...
09:40I mean, I'm a little pissed about it.
09:43It happened while I was away.
09:45I wasn't really there to even try to remedy this situation.
09:50I wasn't there to try to support you in this situation.
09:52Right.
09:53So, it sucked.
10:00This is supposed to be a happy time.
10:02I just feel like you're a little hangry and you should probably eat.
10:05We will talk about it later when we can sit down, focus, full bellies, kids asleep.
10:11Okay.
10:12Let's give them a nap while I eat some food.
10:14Okay.
10:15I think in an ideal world, Yesel would want Jackie here to welcome him home.
10:22I don't like feeling like I let someone down.
10:27And just, like, knowing that, you know, maybe I could have prevented the ending of everything.
10:36Kind of feels like I took it away from him, so.
10:39It's just emotional.
10:40I'm, like, disappointed in myself a little bit.
10:42We let Danielle come in and we let Vera call her mommy.
10:52And then she left.
10:54I don't want to do that again with Teresa.
10:58It's just enough is enough at this point.
11:02There's been some things going on in my family.
11:05I am scared to let my family in on this because it can go either way.
11:11Where is it then?
11:12I want us to be able to have fun and enjoy Jenny's pregnancy and enjoy each other's company.
11:34All the time.
11:34And if every single time we try to talk to her about her.
11:39Self-destructiveness.
11:40Her self-destructiveness.
11:41Let's go ahead and call it what it is.
11:42Right.
11:42Every time we try to talk to her, she runs away.
11:46And then we never get to talk about it.
11:48And then she'll try to come back and act like nothing ever happened.
11:51You know, I love Teresa very much.
11:53We all do.
11:54She's got a special place in our heart.
11:57And she's made a place in our family.
12:00I mean, we'd like to have a place for her and our family.
12:02But it's been eight or nine months that we've had to constantly revisit these same issues,
12:09these same topics that she finds herself stuck on and able to move past.
12:14This is not the energy or the mode that we want to sustain.
12:18All we've done is try to help, making sure that she feels secure and...
12:29Supported.
12:30...try to help her cancel out all of those negative, you know, self-talk moments.
12:36I don't want to have that constant energy in the house of being like, oh...
12:41Right, right.
12:42You know what I mean?
12:42Walking on eggshells, worried about if somebody's...
12:45Gonna trigger her.
12:46Right.
12:47Something's gonna upset her.
12:48Right.
12:48I mean, and I guess if she's just gonna always run away, then maybe we need to just let her run away.
12:54Yeah.
12:55And not keep trying to pull her back in.
12:59It's 100% about Teresa's relationship with herself.
13:05That is the trouble.
13:06Mm-hmm.
13:07There's nothing we can do to help her address the relationship she has inside.
13:15And the thing is, is the baby's gonna be here in a few weeks.
13:18And it breaks my heart because we're so concerned about making sure Teresa feels good.
13:24We can't even enjoy Jenny's pregnancy.
13:26And I just don't want to keep doing that.
13:28It's like maybe she's just, you know, keep giving her a chance and give her a chance and, like, you know, she'll, she'll work through it.
13:40But at the same time, we're at the point that we're at, you know, and so that's what's, that's what has me really torn, you know?
13:49You know, it's like, especially coming up on having a baby, it's like, you know, maybe, maybe I'm being too hard.
13:58You know, maybe it's not a big deal.
13:59Like, maybe, like, I'm overreacting and stuff like that.
14:02It's upsetting and concerning to me for my two beautiful wives to be all emotional and upset.
14:12And I'm really not happy about that at all.
14:14We let Danielle come in and we let Vera call her mommy, you know, and then she left.
14:24And so it's like, I don't want to do that again with Teresa and have my child get attached just for you to leave because you can't get your together.
14:37Yeah.
14:37It's just enough is enough at this point.
14:42Either she's going to commit herself to doing the internal work that she needs to do to help herself heal or she's not going to be here.
15:07Today I'm going over to my mom's house.
15:11I'm going to be meeting with my mom, my sister Chastity, my auntie Pumpkin, and my auntie Tiffany so that I can share that me and Matt, we had this polygamous relationship.
15:25Hey.
15:26Are you ready for a shot?
15:27Here.
15:27Um, shot o'clock?
15:29Yeah, I'll take one.
15:29Shot o'clock.
15:30Good job.
15:31Two or three years ago, I told Chastity that we had this relationship, but I think I've decided now after three years to let my family in on our secret, on our life, because we just broke up with Shanae.
15:49And I'm hurting.
15:52Right now, I need my family more than ever.
15:56I don't have that extra support to lean on in my relationship because Matt is also hurting.
16:03He doesn't know how to process my pain and his own.
16:08Shot o'clock.
16:09Cheers.
16:09Shot o'clock.
16:10Shot o'clock.
16:15She's so stupid, I swear.
16:16What?
16:17Sorry.
16:17What you been up to, Angelica?
16:20Nothing, just working.
16:21Mm-hmm.
16:22Raising these kids.
16:23Mm.
16:24I'm raising these kids.
16:25Trying.
16:26My family is very judgmental.
16:29They're extremely opinionated.
16:32I am scared to let my family in on this because it can go either way.
16:38All right, Tiff, go ahead and explain the game because some of them don't know.
16:41See?
16:42You have to see.
16:43You have to put it in the center.
16:45Ah, pass it to the right.
16:46Left.
16:48Left.
16:48You have to put it to the left.
16:51There you go.
16:52Center and right.
16:53Yeah.
16:54Oh, I got one back.
16:55Here you go.
16:55All right, so the reason why, you know, I wanted to talk to you guys.
16:59Don't make me fall.
17:00There's been some things going on in, you know, my house, my family.
17:05You can have just one more baby.
17:07No, no more kids.
17:08Where is it?
17:09Where is it then?
17:10So, Matt and I have actually been dating.
17:21You said you're the swingers?
17:22Someone else.
17:24I know, girl, don't tell me that.
17:26What, you swing?
17:27Yes!
17:28But we're not swingers.
17:29We're not swingers.
17:30Listen, let her talk.
17:31Yeah.
17:32We're not swingers.
17:34Matt and I have been dating some, a woman and.
17:38What?
17:39As a sister wife.
17:40As a sister wife.
17:41Oh, hell no.
17:44What?
17:46I don't get it.
17:46I don't know what you're saying to me.
17:48I don't know either.
17:49What she's saying?
17:50So, essentially, Matt has a second, he has a girlfriend or a second wife.
17:55Do you have a girlfriend?
17:57You sign, you, you're signing up to be, you're like, you and Matt.
18:00A sister wife on, like, her TV?
18:02You and Matt are married.
18:03Yes!
18:05Yes.
18:05You and Matt are married.
18:06I lost your mom.
18:08You and Matt got married.
18:09How long have you been married?
18:10Since 2019.
18:11Okay.
18:13How you sign up to be a side chick?
18:15You're married.
18:16You're okay with being a married side chick?
18:18I know you love him, but you know what?
18:21I can promise you his ain't that good.
18:23I know.
18:23He don't even got that much money.
18:24It was actually my idea.
18:26Help us, Jesus.
18:29Why?
18:35It doesn't have anything to do with sex.
18:36It's not fueled by sex.
18:38Not for you?
18:40Why?
18:41Why?
18:41Why did you bring it up, though?
18:42Why?
18:44Because I want the relationship.
18:46I want the relationship dynamic, the friendship, the camaraderie.
18:50With Matt or the girl?
18:51No, with the other girl.
18:52You want a friend, so you're going to find a side chick for Matt?
18:56No, no.
18:57Because you're the side chick.
18:58No.
19:00I don't know how she got to this point where she thinks it's okay to find another, a replacement for herself,
19:07because that's what it is.
19:08I love Matt.
19:11I love my son-in-law.
19:12But I just don't think he's worth any of this.
19:18Angelica, whatever happened to just having an affair?
19:23He's throwing that all in your face.
19:25You know what I mean?
19:26Why can't he just have an affair?
19:29Because an affair doesn't involve a full relationship.
19:32Oh, it does.
19:33Like...
19:33Do you think, okay, do you think he will allow you?
19:37I don't want to be with anyone else.
19:39Yes, you do.
19:40But him, she loves him.
19:41She just wants to make him happy.
19:42That's the way I'm thinking.
19:46I can't say nothing, because the stuff I'm going to say, you're not going to like.
20:02Oh, yeah.
20:10Hey, babe.
20:11Hey.
20:13Boys are down after about seven books.
20:17Two bedtime songs.
20:19The usual.
20:20That looks nice.
20:21Ooh.
20:22A little hot.
20:23A little bit.
20:24Almost got me.
20:25Since Yassil's been home, there's definitely some tension in the air.
20:29I can tell he's upset.
20:30A little more paper doesn't hurt.
20:33I think he's pissed.
20:35I know he's pissed.
20:39I want to touch some grass with my toes, because the last three months, I feel like I need to
20:45be grounded.
20:47The last few months have felt very long.
20:52While I was away, Jackie and I were video calling, messaging on a pretty regular basis.
20:58Things were going well.
20:59I feel like we had a strong bond.
21:01I felt pretty close to her.
21:03And then in one day, it just blew up.
21:07What happened at that dinner?
21:10What exactly happened?
21:11There it is.
21:12You still a little spicy?
21:14Obviously, things completely fell apart.
21:17Right.
21:17So?
21:18We had the conversation about the no kid thing.
21:22Like, I'm just not comfortable with her having a biological child with you.
21:26What did she say when you brought that up?
21:28I just feel like she was a little too shell-shocked, and she definitely thought it was unfair.
21:34I feel like, you know, woman to woman, I feel like maybe she could have took it as you asserting
21:46almost like some sort of dominance or something.
21:50She could have took it as a threat.
21:51You don't know.
21:51I could have possibly been the buffer there.
21:55It sounds like a her problem.
21:57No, it's a all of us problem.
22:00If you were there, that boundary is not going to change.
22:05So this is not a her problem.
22:09It's not a her problem.
22:10I wonder every day if Danny really wants this.
22:21I have kept a lot of my opinions to myself, and I feel like maybe it wasn't the wisest
22:27choice to completely let her, you know, give her the reins.
22:31And I am regretting not being more vocal with my concerns initially.
22:36I don't feel like it, I just kind of want to ask, like, is it, is it, do you still want
22:40to do this, or is it the boundary awaited for you to, like, sabotage, kind of like the
22:48relationship?
22:50So?
22:52You got to look at it from somebody else's point of view.
22:56You're a person coming into an established marriage, an established family.
23:01If somebody's telling you, you cannot have biological kids with my husband.
23:06I mean, wouldn't you see that as a major red flag?
23:10Like, what, what else?
23:12Are they trying to control me, you know?
23:17It's not about control.
23:20Like, it's not, I could, I could see how it would seem unfair to someone.
23:24Absolutely.
23:24And I get that.
23:25But this is not like a new boundary just because it's her.
23:29Is it something that, is it fair to me?
23:32Because obviously I want more kids.
23:36Oh, I feel like that's another discussion to have.
23:40And we're, we can have it right now.
23:48Do you think it's fair to you?
23:49Just, just, just a thought in my head is all it is.
23:58Well, if I could give you more, I would.
24:00Oh, I know you would.
24:01I just, like I've said multiple times, like, I just don't.
24:05My journey's over with it.
24:07My body's done.
24:07My heart is not.
24:08So to watch another woman have what I want so bad, I can't do that.
24:20I can't do that.
24:21I believe if someone wants this dynamic with us that bad, then they would, you know, be willing to compromise.
24:37Can you live without having more biological children?
24:49Yeah.
24:51Okay.
24:51Absolutely can.
24:52I mean, I have our three boys.
24:55I have you.
24:56We're perfectly happy.
24:57I'm perfectly happy.
24:59Okay.
24:59I am more than prepared to sacrifice having another child for the sake of my family, my boys, and my wife's happiness.
25:12All right, let me guess.
25:18During this, during this process, I feel like I've been giving you more of the reins and, you know, with Jackie and all that.
25:26And I feel like it, it, it possibly bit us in the ass.
25:32Maybe if we are more together in, in, in all of it.
25:41I just realized we both kind of did the same thing in different ways.
25:46Irony.
25:48You know, we got to learn lessons the hard way.
25:51It's true.
25:51During our first attempt at seeking, Yassel took the reins and I took a back seat and it, it blew up in her face.
26:02The second time around, Yassel let me take the reins because I feel like he felt a little bit guilty and it blew up in her face again.
26:12We're one for one each.
26:13Dead even one for one.
26:15Yes, we are.
26:15Okay.
26:17Knowing that we're both learning from our mistakes is reassuring.
26:21And now it's even.
26:23Moving forward, we should definitely bring up the baby subject in the beginning, you know?
26:28We.
26:29We.
26:30Together.
26:31Together.
26:31So it's not just one person delivering that very big piece, especially if we know it's somebody that's definitely interested in having a child.
26:41You know, put it in our profile.
26:44It's just one of those things we, I feel like we need to be really upfront about.
26:47Right.
26:48I have learned that keeping quiet doesn't work because emotions are very loud.
26:55Yeah.
26:56And this is for everybody out there.
26:57If your relationship is not solid.
26:59Right.
27:00On solid freaking ground.
27:02Right.
27:03Try and polygamy out.
27:04Whew.
27:05It is not for the faint of heart.
27:07No.
27:08No.
27:08As long as we commit to being on the same page with each other, then I feel like, you know, third time might be the charm.
27:19Or fourth or fifth or sixth.
27:21We're not going to speak.
27:24We're not going to do that.
27:27This experience has made our relationship better.
27:31Learning how to just slow things down a little bit.
27:34Finding more of those compromises that we never thought we'd have to make.
27:38Right.
27:39As many times as it takes.
27:41Jesus.
27:44Okay.
27:45I think our needle in haystack is out there.
27:50How far out there?
27:52No idea.
27:53I don't think it'll be easy, but I'm looking for a lifelong bond with someone.
27:59You don't take the easy road to get that.
28:01Hot, young couple, done with kids, but looking for a sister-wife.
28:07You're not wrong.
28:09I am hoping third time is the charm and we hit a home run.
28:14But in the back of my mind, all I'm thinking is, does she really want to do this?
28:18We'll see what happens.
28:19Well, I'm about done stroking this fire.
28:25Stoke.
28:26Stroke this fire.
28:27I'm going to stroke that fire.
28:28Can we go inside now?
28:29Okay.
28:31How do I know you're not just going to run away with my husband?
28:34I just really hope that Billy can get her feelings in check because I like Randy.
28:41I felt like last time we met that maybe you were uncomfortable because, I mean, basically
29:04it was jealousy.
29:06I really didn't even want to come back.
29:08Because of my reaction.
29:12Yeah.
29:12Okay.
29:17I don't know.
29:18I wanted to talk to you about that a little bit more if we could and just make sure.
29:23I've got to run the restroom, so I'm going to leave you ladies so you can sit and chat
29:27for a minute, okay?
29:28All right.
29:31I just really hope that Billy can get her feelings in check because I like Randy.
29:35I see something there, but this relationship has to work for Billy as well.
29:40So I'm just going to excuse myself and let them talk amongst themselves because there
29:45are going to be a lot of tough conversations in the future if we do move forward with this.
29:50So I think this will definitely be a test for them to see, I mean, if they're compatible in this journey.
29:58So how do you think that you will handle the jealousy if we do bond and click?
30:08Because I'm not fully convinced right now that you would be able to deal with that.
30:18So one of my biggest fears is how do I know you're not just going to run away with my husband?
30:23What if my husband ends up loving you more?
30:29Because everything is, you know, shiny, it's new, it's fun, and I'm not.
30:35I'm what's been here before, you know what I mean?
30:37Old news.
30:38Like, yeah, like the old news.
30:41I wouldn't do that.
30:44I mean, I can understand those fears.
30:46I don't want to ruin anything that you guys have, you know?
30:50Yeah.
30:50I mean, I wouldn't be human, I think, if I didn't have some sort of emotion.
30:55You know what I mean?
30:55I totally agree with that, too.
30:58Like, having all those emotions and fears is natural.
31:02So I know you have your fears, but I have mine, too.
31:07And how, you know, am I supposed to know that I'm not always going to be second?
31:12Yeah, and that's totally legitimate.
31:18And I've told Reese I don't like, like, the terms, like, first wife, second wife,
31:22because I don't want there to be a hierarchy among people.
31:27It's all, it's all of our relationship.
31:30Like, yeah, we got married first, and I understand that, like, when we have history.
31:34But that's why we're going slow and dating, is to build up that rapport
31:39so that you guys can be just as comfortable.
31:42You have very valid fears, you know?
31:45And as long as we go slow and steady and everyone's comfortable,
31:49I think we'll be on the path to the right way.
31:52Because, I mean, those fears that you have of being kicked out
31:55is the same fears that I have, you know, of being kicked out.
32:01I'm glad that we were able to have this conversation
32:04and talk about these things, because that's really reassuring
32:07that things could work, you know?
32:10I'm definitely glad that we had this conversation.
32:15There you go, ladies.
32:17Oh, I'm starving.
32:18Randy seems really receptive to everything I'm saying,
32:21which is a good quality.
32:22You know, I want to be able to have a sister wife
32:24that I can talk to and ask hard questions
32:26or have hard conversations.
32:28So I feel like it's definitely a good thing.
32:31Well, look who's here.
32:34Oh, there he is.
32:36Food is here.
32:37Food is here.
32:38Sorry, I would call you.
32:38The man, the myth, the legend.
32:40That's right.
32:42So after, I mean, I guess, so where do we stand?
32:47Like, where are we going from here?
32:50I think that we can continue to talk and see where, explore it,
32:57see where things go, and hopefully it will work out.
33:02Okay, cool.
33:03Okay, I was kind of nervous.
33:05I was like, oh my God.
33:06I know, I give up vibes, but I promise I'm okay.
33:10I'm really satisfied with the way she handled my concerns.
33:16I feel better knowing that she's willing to communicate
33:19and hear my side too.
33:22I'm excited to see where this goes
33:24because they're great people.
33:28And Reese is cute.
33:30And he gets cuter too.
33:32Like, he's one of those people that's like,
33:34you get to know their personality and they get...
33:36So, it's good.
33:38He's so fun.
33:40All right, so what are we thinking for third date then?
33:44So we're going to do a third date?
33:45I mean, that's what I was thinking.
33:48All right.
33:48Okay.
33:49And...
33:50We're going to do it.
33:51I was really nervous that it wasn't going to happen.
33:54I don't want Billy to be uncomfortable or feeling jealous.
33:58I don't want our relationship to go negatively and get worse
34:02while a relationship with someone else is getting better and forming.
34:07So, you're going to have to speak up, obviously,
34:09and then we can address it.
34:10If Lorena is pregnant, there is no going back.
34:26We're tied to her for life.
34:27Why are you happy?
34:30No, I'm a sister.
34:42Where were you when he met this girl and went on a date?
34:44So, if you let me explain, I can put all that out there.
34:50About three years ago...
34:51Are you kidding me?
34:52We met her on a dating app.
34:55No, he met her, not me.
34:56No, no.
34:56We met her on a dating app.
34:58Okay.
34:59I created his dating profile.
35:02I helped him write the biography.
35:03I was the one that was swiping through the photos.
35:09So, you picked her?
35:09And I was the one...
35:11I liked her profile.
35:13For him?
35:13For him.
35:15Her name is Shanae.
35:17You know, she's been a great friend to me
35:18and, like, a support system, a sister.
35:23What is this about you don't have a support system?
35:25You need to bring this bitch in because you need support?
35:28When your sister's right across the street,
35:30I'm always around the corner.
35:31Shanae, what do you need support for?
35:34For what?
35:35For Matt?
35:35No, it's more than that.
35:38What?
35:38What is it?
35:39It's a different relationship.
35:41She and I are experiencing the same thing.
35:44We're going through the same thing.
35:45What?
35:46What you're going through?
35:49And it's, like, a frustration with Matt.
35:51She understands how, you know, how he can be and how...
35:55Kind of how?
35:56Because they're in a relationship as well.
35:58My understanding is she's looking for her village, her support system.
36:07She has it right here.
36:08I know.
36:09I said it in front of me and hurt my feelings, but when she explained it to me...
36:12The thing that came out of your mouth right now was supportive.
36:15I...
36:15We're in shock!
36:18It does bother me and hurt me to see her sad and tearing up and holding back her feelings.
36:25At the end of the day, I'm not okay with this, but I am okay with my sister's happiness.
36:29So, um, we actually just got broken up with by Shanae.
36:35Good.
36:36And, um...
36:37And you're sad?
36:39I am sad.
36:40Who gives a if she left?
36:41And it's still not going to be you and your husband like it should be.
36:45And your kids.
36:46But I've developed a really good and close relationship with her and friendship.
36:49That's fine.
36:49You can still be her friend.
36:50You can still be her friend.
36:50Well, that's...
36:51And she can be your best friend.
36:52You know?
36:53That's what I was getting at.
36:54Okay.
36:54Okay.
36:55What?
36:55She's...
36:56You guys are...
36:56You and her are going to still be friends?
36:59Hopefully, yeah.
37:01You know, this was...
37:02There was a lot of love and a lot of...
37:05A lot that went into this.
37:07I'm in a lot of pain.
37:09You know, I am in a lot of pain.
37:10I'm hurting.
37:11And I'm looking for my community, my support system.
37:15And I'm coming to you guys asking for that.
37:19That's why I'm here today.
37:21That's...
37:21I love you.
37:22That's what I need.
37:24I don't agree with any of this stuff you're doing, but I'll be here for you.
37:35You can maintain her friendship.
37:37Just keep her out of your bed.
37:39At this point, I'm completely over even attempting to have a conversation with them.
37:44Maybe this wasn't the best way to go about telling my family about our situation.
37:51It just reminds me why we're on this journey.
37:58And it's...
37:59If anything, it's pushing me to continue down this path even more.
38:06I...
38:07I need Sine.
38:09I...
38:09I cannot lose her.
38:11I...
38:22Okay.
38:23Okay.
38:24Sister.
38:24You?
38:25Peepee?
38:26Un, dois, tres, cuatro, cinco.
38:28Three weeks after Lorena and Garrick got married, Garrick and my brother Sam ended
38:40up having to go out to Wisconsin to help my grandma with some remodel work for her
38:44house that she's trying to sell.
38:46So, shortly after Garrick left for Wisconsin with my brother, Lorena realized she was a
38:58little bit late with her period.
39:00E, grávida, dois.
39:03Entende?
39:04Grávida, dois.
39:05Dois.
39:06Não grávida, dois.
39:07Não grávida, um.
39:08Ok.
39:28Uma do inglês, e ter um bebê e também a minha famÃlia longe de mim me deixa um pouco
39:35preocupada se vai mudar as coisas muito, tanto pra mim e pro Garrick, mas também pra famÃlia.
39:41O meu Deus!
39:45Lorena's only been in the USA for three months and Garrick and her literally just got married
39:50like three weeks ago so everything is really happening fast to be honest
39:54everything with the relationship with Lorena has happened fast immigration
39:58I think it's kind of surreal how fast everything is going
40:05Garrick and I have never been to this point in polygamy where he's having a
40:10child with another woman and so I really don't know how I'm gonna feel the
40:15reality is that if Lorena is pregnant there is no going back we're tied to
40:19her for life okay any minute now she should be here I have no idea what to
40:30expect from this conversation this interaction we're about to have with
40:34Teresa oh she's here I just hope that we can all leave from this experience still
40:42being friends at the very least I see my house over here I see her
40:53house over here I feel like we're getting really close to having our
40:57dream you know our village our family now would you be okay though knowing I'm
41:01right next door with the sister-wife
41:07how are you I'm doing all right you yeah I went with Matt to see another woman and I
41:16didn't tell Shanae I think what broke the camel's back for me is you met this
41:22person I'm not ready to lose her at all I'm angry Angelica
