00:00Previously on Bell Collective.
00:02Glenn, I'm so sorry that I didn't make my moment
00:06about y'all asses.
00:07I'm so sorry that I want to elevate.
00:11All I'm asking you to do is be my husband.
00:13I'm so stunned to hear Tisha talk this way.
00:16I feel like Tisha and I, we're not on the same page.
00:20Shantae brought her own information to me,
00:23that Devon and I were not together,
00:28that we decided to have a baby together as friends.
00:32If you irrelevant, if you outside of the collective,
00:34we are a group.
00:35Any outside noise, it shouldn't be there.
00:38I believe Shantae is the biggest outside noise.
00:42It's not like it's another woman, it's a baby.
00:44Right.
00:45Because I want to know how I got in the group,
00:47especially now while I'm planning a wedding.
00:50Right.
00:50Once again, anything that comes out,
00:53let's talk about it and stop outside people
00:55from coming into the collective.
01:00I don't know where I get the motivation.
01:03To keep it pushin', stay impatient.
01:06But I've always been like this.
01:09I'll make it, I'm gon' get there.
01:14I'm gonna make some tea.
01:16Did you see the honey?
01:18Mm-hmm.
01:19I did buy more.
01:20Mm-hmm, I do have it.
01:21I made dad's tea a little different though.
01:24Yes, because I don't want it to, you know, interfere with his medication or anything.
01:28Mm-hmm.
01:32Dad, you want to walk to the back?
01:34Okay.
01:35You got him?
01:36Mm-hmm.
01:37Take your time.
01:39Despite all the drama that is going on in the collective, I have to stay focused on my family.
01:46And I have been staying with my parents to help my mom with my dad.
01:53My family is my priority right now.
01:56He's sleepy.
01:57Initially, they thought my dad had a stroke.
02:02But to this day, do we have a clear understanding of what happened that day?
02:09We do not.
02:11I'm gonna go on a day.
02:12You wanna come in here?
02:12Let me do it.
02:13But we can definitely see signs of dementia.
02:19And the hard part is my dad can see it too.
02:31Let me feel you.
02:37Hey.
02:39Hey.
02:42Hey.
02:44Tamra has been going through a lot.
02:46I'm gonna check on my girl and see where her head space is.
02:48After all that drama that happened at the focus group, I want Tamra to definitely know that she has my
02:54support throughout anything.
02:56How is everything going with that?
02:57He's doing better than what he was.
03:00When it happened, like, I'm talking about literally me and Selena and they're boo-hoo crying like, hold on, we
03:04gotta be strong for Tamra.
03:05Oh, my God. Don't tell me that.
03:07What happened?
03:10My mama found my daddy. Think he had a stroke.
03:13I do appreciate you.
03:14Girl, we need to catch up.
03:15Can we talk about the Dr. Juice clan rumors?
03:19That's crazy to me.
03:20I laughed about it because I thought it was so ridiculous because I'm like, you are reaching.
03:24No, no, no.
03:24I've never heard that.
03:26Chante said that you got a whole boyfriend.
03:29Where did you even get that from?
03:31The information was brought to me saying that, you know, her and Tamra are not together.
03:35They're basically two friends that decided that they want to have a baby.
03:38What?
03:38This is somebody that they have never lied to me.
03:41But they lied to you this time, girl.
03:44This is who you're calling your best friend?
03:46Girl.
03:46And now I can honestly say, when it comes to your best friend, Latisha, every time I see her now,
03:52I feel like she's coming with some mess.
03:55Yes.
03:56That let me know.
03:57Yeah, Latisha, you do not know me.
04:00I don't know.
04:00Do I need to invite everybody and just do a whole reintroduction since they act like they don't know me?
04:04Do we need to do that?
04:06I think it's to the point.
04:08Yeah, I don't have to do that.
04:10Based off of this latest rumor, it is obvious some of these ladies do not know me.
04:17Maybe I need to reintroduce myself.
04:20Because it seems like everyone is digging.
04:22Let me go ahead and give them a shovel.
04:25I'm still trying to get myself together, honey.
04:27I still have a lot going on.
04:28Like, I have to have fibroid surgery like in two weeks.
04:32Really?
04:32Yes, girl.
04:33They came back?
04:34Yes, I have to go back under the knife.
04:36I told you that sometimes they do come back.
04:38They do.
04:39And it makes you feel any better.
04:40I went through three of those surgeries.
04:42That is insane.
04:43So they can come back?
04:44It's a lot.
04:45And my doctor actually did ask me, like, do you want a hysterectomy?
04:49I'm like, no.
04:49No, don't do that.
04:50Because, you know, because I do want, eventually, a baby somewhere.
04:54Yeah.
04:54Somewhere in this life.
04:56Make sure you are an advocate for yourself, and you make sure you are telling them that you would like
05:00to preserve your uterus.
05:01Because you do want kids.
05:03Mm-hmm.
05:03You make that very known.
05:05You will get through it, and you will be healthy.
05:08Tamara's knowledge of fibroid surgery definitely eases my nerves.
05:12And I just appreciate her being by my side, because it means a lot.
05:16I am counting the days down to my fibroid surgery so that I can finally move forward and get back
05:21to my life.
05:23Pace blowing you up.
05:24Girl.
05:25They done blew my phone for Smith's ring.
05:30Mr. Incredible.
05:31Mr. Incredible.
05:33Mr. Incredible.
05:35Mr. Incredible.
05:36Mr. Incredible.
05:36Yo, I am a king.
05:38Treat me like royalty.
05:39I am your king.
05:40You get my loyalty.
05:40You be my queen.
05:41Baby, don't talk with me.
05:42I need somebody that's down to go back.
05:44I got a surprise for you.
05:46Mm-hmm.
05:46I just want to celebrate you a little bit.
05:48Oh.
05:49I don't think nothing wrong with that.
05:50I like being celebrated.
05:51Yes, you should.
05:52Hi.
05:53Welcome to the Soul Squad.
05:54Hey, how you doing?
05:55I made reservations.
05:57Okay.
05:57I have you checked in.
05:58You guys can follow me.
05:59All right.
06:00Tonight, I'm surprising my wife with a massage because she's been stressing.
06:04I'm so sorry for wanting to become what God wants me to be.
06:08I don't know what else you want from me.
06:10Oh.
06:10The only thing I've asked you to do is be my husband.
06:13I'm not sure what's going on with her, but I'm just trying to show up as a good husband.
06:17I'm trying to make sure that she knows that I do truly love her, and I want her to be
06:21happy.
06:22So, hopefully, this is moving in the right direction.
06:25Okay, Glenn.
06:26This is nice.
06:27Are you surprised?
06:29I am surprised.
06:31Ooh.
06:32I like the sound of that.
06:33Mm-hmm.
06:34Things have definitely been rough between me and Glenn, especially since things got heated at the dinner.
06:40But I can really appreciate his efforts of planning this spa day.
06:45It's a good time.
06:46Oh, good time.
06:48I like that.
06:48Better days ahead, right?
06:49I like that.
06:50However, I am a little anxious to see where his head is.
06:55Speaking of better days ahead, Carrie has been asking us for, like, this double date for months.
07:01So, you know, I got to get with her just to see when we can make it happen.
07:06Even though things are chaotic within the collective and we have rumors swirling around,
07:12I'm really hoping to just step away from all the drama within the collective and have a double date with
07:18Carrie and Matt.
07:19How did your focus group thing go?
07:21It went great.
07:22A lot in love came on the project on the screen, so she said I had, like, the perfect tone,
07:28personality, energy.
07:29I agree.
07:30You know how to get people to feel comfortable with you to have conversations, so I see a bright, bright
07:37future for you in this.
07:38Oh, thank you, Glenn.
07:39I appreciate that.
07:40After the focus group and I let everybody leave, Selena raised a concern about who initiated or who spoke about
07:51Mike having a baby within the collective.
07:54I felt like she was trying to blame me for not, I guess, for not telling her.
08:00I mean, I had posted a picture on my IG, right?
08:04I saw the picture on your IG.
08:05And I talked to Mike, you know what I'm saying, and Mike was like, hell no, so we all laughed
08:10it off, blew it off, so I don't believe it, man.
08:13Like, people would say anything.
08:15I mean, they're about to get married, you know, we've gone down there, I would wish that on nobody.
08:19I know how it feels to have false accusations against your man, and I'm really hoping and I believe that
08:25it's nothing to this baby rumor.
08:27So, quick question, was first at your focus group?
08:32No.
08:33No?
08:33You know, I did put him on a leave of absence because I want to.
08:39So, what do you want me to do?
08:41Fire him.
08:44As a matter of fact, I think you should fire him and hire me as your manager.
08:53Glenn.
08:54What's funny?
08:55I manage you.
08:57You don't even check your own emails.
08:59That's besides the point.
09:01I had you know that.
09:02What does that look like, managing me?
09:04You don't think I would have your best interest at heart?
09:06Let me ask you this.
09:07What does a manager do?
09:10A manager manage their talent.
09:17I should be Latisha manager because I make a great manager.
09:21I feel like it's good to be marriage and business partners when the only time you can see your partner
09:26is when you're doing business.
09:28I think it's a win-win.
09:30I just don't think that's a good idea.
09:32Like, real talk.
09:32I just don't feel like that's a good idea.
09:34That's not going to happen, Glenn.
09:38Every time I try to be nice to you, you come with some every time.
09:42No.
09:42That's not, no.
09:43Every time Glendale tries.
09:45Look at, look around.
09:46And this is nice and I'm going to need it after you just put that on me.
09:49You're not even allowing me to prove to you that I'm capable of doing it.
09:53I know you're not.
09:55There are so many other things that Glenn should be thinking about other than managing me.
10:00Where is the massage therapist?
10:02Did she get lost?
10:02Did she go home?
10:03Where are y'all?
10:04Because, honey, right now I need a massage.
10:07This is too much.
10:15Coming up on Bell Collective.
10:17I think that Carrie got spooked into submission.
10:21The worst thing you can do in this Collective is try to show loyalty by telling a lie.
10:27I'm the best bowler for sure.
10:28Mad thing to hear about to walk away with another win, he got a whole other thing coming.
10:36My dog got caught in the hole.
10:38I know somebody right now that's dating a man and a woman.
10:43What I will share is this.
10:45When I was 18 years old, I had a threesome.
10:49She went down there on me.
10:51Live your truth, Marie.
10:52Absolutely.
10:52I'm a fooling.
10:55Who's that walking around, I'm talking to town, and I look like money?
10:58Like money?
10:59Who's that walking around, I'm talking to town, and I look like what?
11:02Like who?
11:03Who's that walking around, I'm talking to town, and I look like what?
11:06Hi, how are you?
11:07How many of you, ma'am?
11:08It's going to be two.
11:09Mm-hmm.
11:09I'm meeting up with Latisha today because at the focus group, I didn't get any answers,
11:16and I just need to get a lot off my chest.
11:19I'm the chef in the kitchen, let me cook a little bit.
11:21None of y'all mess with my fresh and my flight.
11:23I'm gonna switch it up anytime I see you try it.
11:26Hand me my DMs waiting on the replies.
11:29How you pretty girl?
11:31Fabulous.
11:31Hey, so you can stay seated.
11:33How you doing?
11:34Hey.
11:35Hey.
11:36I'm meeting Selena for lunch today to follow up after the focus group and to talk about
11:41all this baby drama.
11:43I'm still confused.
11:44I'm scratching my head like why am I in this?
11:47So what's going on with the wedding?
11:49Girl, I am like stressed out to the max.
11:54Mm-hmm.
11:54My bridal party don't have anything together when it comes to my bachelorette party.
11:59I mean trying to deal with nine women.
12:01What?
12:02It's just been driving me insane.
12:04Yo, Maida, Ana should be handling that.
12:06Do not worry about the food.
12:06You got other important things to worry about.
12:08Selena is telling me about all this drama going on with her bridal party,
12:13how they can't finalize nothing.
12:16Selena has chosen who she would like to be in her bridal party.
12:19My bridal party is here scattered throughout.
12:23It's Tam.
12:27And the goddess herself, Latrice.
12:34I just hope and pray that everything will work out for her.
12:37Mike is taking me out the country to Columbia.
12:40When?
12:40Girl, he told me I'll get my teeth done.
12:42I'm like my teeth.
12:43Girl, Ashley, my manager just got hurt.
12:46Really?
12:46They are so pretty.
12:47He was like, on our wedding day, I just want you to have just, I just want you to just
12:51have the most beautiful smile on your face.
12:53So I'm like, okay.
12:54I want to go to Columbia to get away.
12:56So we're going to make it a little ba-kay and get my teeth done at the same time.
13:01Four of my teeth, they are flipped.
13:04So I'm getting done porcelain veneers for a good reasonable price.
13:09So I'm excited.
13:11You should be.
13:12I am.
13:13And that's why, I mean, not to even bring that up, but Selena, that's why I didn't see anything back
13:18with that message.
13:19I wasn't going to bring no mess like that to you.
13:21But I wanted you to bring it to me.
13:23You knew about this when I came to you about Mike and our communication problem.
13:30And why you didn't say anything to me then?
13:33Because I don't have any concrete evidence.
13:36If I had it and it came to me, I would have been like, Mike, let's have this conversation.
13:42When Carrie brought, you know, because Carrie had been here for two seconds.
13:45Yeah.
13:45And Carrie, it's like when Carrie gets some information, she's just going,
13:48Something about Amy and Mike.
13:50Yeah.
13:50Yes. Carrie brought it to my attention.
13:52Then Marie said something about it.
13:55Then I'm like, why Latisha didn't say anything to me?
13:58I didn't see anything myself.
13:59Even if you didn't see anything, you still could have made me aware.
14:03So I'm sorry about that.
14:04So moving forward.
14:05So let me ask you this.
14:06So how did you feel hearing that Carrie got it from Matt and Matt got it from Cliff?
14:12Like, have you addressed that situation or is it just me?
14:14I'm the one that got to be held accountable.
14:15No, I told Mike to meet up with the guys.
14:18Mm-hmm.
14:19You handle the guys.
14:20I'm handling the ladies.
14:21I like that.
14:22I'm going to take care of the girls and try to figure out where this baby rumor came up
14:26at in the collective.
14:27And Mike is going to have a conversation with the guys once we come back from Columbia.
14:32We're supposed to be standing on business.
14:34We're supposed to be transparent.
14:36But it don't seem like that's happening right now.
14:38Let me ask you this.
14:39I'm a focus group.
14:40How did you feel, like, when, you know, Carrie kind of, like, backpedaled?
14:45My husband went to Matt and was like, this some bull .
14:48Marie over there talking about.
14:49Man, that's a made-up story.
14:51No, I don't remember that part.
14:52I don't.
14:53Honestly, I don't.
14:53You said you found out it tastes, or was it prior?
14:58I heard it from the guys.
15:00So, you know, I mean.
15:02Marie was saying she only whispered in your ear.
15:04You see what I'm saying?
15:06And Carrie was saying she got it from Marie.
15:08But at the focus group, she said she got it from Matt.
15:12She did.
15:12She did say she did say Matt.
15:14Marie was like.
15:15But I think Carrie and Latrice, they met up and had a conversation.
15:19And I think Latrice was probably like.
15:21Don't play with me.
15:22Like, don't play with me.
15:23Don't play with my husband or whatever.
15:25So maybe that's the reason why.
15:27Yeah.
15:27I think that Carrie got spooked into submission.
15:31And I asked, well, Carrie, where did you get it from?
15:34She just had this long pause.
15:37And it was like her mind was thinking, do I stand on truth?
15:39Or do I try to fix the situation?
15:42Oh, yeah.
15:43I'm gonna let Carrie know the worst thing you can do in this collective
15:45is try to show loyalty by telling a lie.
15:49At this point, Carrie is trying to switch things up to cover up her own ass
15:54instead of standing 10 toes down in what she originally said.
15:59If Carrie can't own what comes out her own mouth,
16:02it really makes me question, how trustworthy are you?
16:05You don't even believe yourself.
16:06And then get that off your teeth.
16:08You got something real sick.
16:09Uh-huh.
16:10Then I get it.
16:11Mm-mm.
16:11You're gonna have to put it.
16:12You're gonna have to put it.
16:14What kind of lipstick is there?
16:16Girl, don't tell me still.
16:17One more lipstick.
16:19You almost there.
16:20Almost there.
16:21You got it.
16:22I need some porcelain.
16:26Coming up on Bell Collective.
16:28I thought about introducing London Simone to the lady.
16:31I don't want no bad image around my baby.
16:34That was one of the reasons that some of the ladies have not met her.
16:37And these women?
16:38Nah, man.
16:39There's always some BS.
16:41I ain't with the drama.
16:43I'm out here making commas.
16:45But I ain't with the drama.
16:48I'm out here getting money, money, money.
16:50Ooh, watch the potholes.
16:52Well, I'm not a driver.
16:54I don't know how long.
16:54I'm just saying.
16:57What's with you going?
16:59Demond and I are out this evening.
17:03And I am telling Demond everything that I have heard.
17:07All the rumors that I have heard.
17:09I don't want him to be blindsided by anything.
17:12Well, I can say today was actually a really good day for my dad, for sure.
17:17Really?
17:18Yes.
17:18Even London Simone, she was trying to show him where to go.
17:22London Simone, the baby home health nurse.
17:26When I was over there the other night, too, he went in the kitchen and he got an apple.
17:31He sat it on the table.
17:33And she was on her iPad.
17:35And next thing you know, her mom went in the back of London, went over there and snatched the apple
17:41and build a plug out of her.
17:43And he started hollering.
17:47Listen, you have to watch her.
17:49No.
17:49Yes.
17:50So listen, I met with Leticia.
17:55While we were there, her friend, her name is Shantae.
17:58She tells me there's a rumor going around that you and I, we are not together.
18:04We just decided to have a child together.
18:07That I actually have had a boyfriend for years.
18:09Really?
18:09Yes.
18:10And I was like, what is his name?
18:11She was like, well, I have a picture.
18:13You're not going to believe who was on the picture.
18:15What?
18:16Dr. Juice Cleanse.
18:18The owner of Dr. Juice Cleanse.
18:19Malone.
18:20Yes.
18:21Say that again.
18:23Like, where would you even get that from?
18:25Like, it's almost like you just pulled something from the sky.
18:28I mean, look, I know you.
18:30I trust you.
18:32And Malone, he been a day one dude.
18:36Yeah.
18:36And one thing I did realize with these ladies, some of them really do not know me.
18:41So I figured about having an event, invite the girls, and maybe help them understand who I am a little
18:48more.
18:48You saying them, and it ain't them.
18:50No, it's two people.
18:52It's really Leticia and Marie.
18:53That's it.
18:54I feel like it is definitely time to control my own narrative.
18:59So I have decided to host a really intimate sip and see.
19:05So some of the bells can really get to know who I am.
19:10And also, I thought about introducing London Simone to the lady.
19:14I don't want no bad energy around my baby.
19:18I don't know what.
19:18And that was one of the reasons that some of the ladies have not met her.
19:24Cool with the guys, but man, these women?
19:28No, man.
19:28It's always some BS.
19:30It's always some BS.
19:32Ain't nobody else a one by my side.
19:35Is you down to ride?
19:37You could be the one who's getting my hard eyes.
19:40Got me so high, hope it lasts all night.
19:45Hey, hey.
19:46Today, I am rolling up on Jay at the park.
19:49I have to stop by to see if you still have it.
19:51Hey.
19:52We're going to play a game of horse.
19:53OK.
19:54Oh, I'm going first.
19:55Game on.
19:56Let's go.
19:58Oh, OK.
20:00All right.
20:02Let's go.
20:02It feels so great to be in a very positive, great place with my son.
20:08Because in the past, we have had some ups and downs.
20:10My oldest, Jerez, he went to cussing me out.
20:14And he ran up on me.
20:17And he took his fist and punched a hole through the wall by my head.
20:22I apologize because at the end of the day, you're my mother.
20:26You're my mom.
20:29Right now, we are in a very great place.
20:32Much better space.
20:33And I, you know, I'm proud of my son and how far he's come.
20:37I'm always down to have son and mama time.
20:41You know how I am about family.
20:42Yeah.
20:43I value family.
20:44You know how papa is and grandma was.
20:46Yeah.
20:47You know, family is.
20:48Real big on family.
20:49Yeah.
20:49Family is everything.
20:51Jay and his oldest son, Carson, and his middle son, Zane, are residing with me.
20:57And so to be surrounded every day with my children and my grandkids, it gives me purpose having them in
21:03the house.
21:04So how are you since the last time we talked?
21:08How you feel about the new office, the new building?
21:10Of course I'm excited, as always.
21:13Right.
21:13To be opening my night service location, I am beyond proud of myself. I'm so grateful.
21:21Myself, I've been thinking about doing like a little dispensary thing.
21:25And I wanted to get your input on that.
21:28Like, how would you feel about something like that?
21:31Let me just say, business is hard.
21:35It takes money.
21:36The type of business you want to start, a dispensary.
21:40Where's the capital going to come from?
21:43And honestly, I'm not trying to shove my business down y'all throat.
21:48But it makes sense, too.
21:49If my mom have several multi-million dollar businesses, right, that are thriving, why not learn those businesses?
21:59So your inheritance in those companies, right?
22:04Right.
22:05You can take it and start another business.
22:08Anybody will be a fool not to take on the inheritance that you built.
22:13You know what I'm saying?
22:14Mm-hmm.
22:14So what can I do to help you accomplish your dream of opening up your own business?
22:22What you doing now?
22:23Just keep standing on me, leading me, guide me in the right directions to be the best me as possible.
22:29And if anybody can do that, I know it's you.
22:33It means a lot to me to hear Jay creating his own legacy and not solely depending on my legacy.
22:41Well, it was good talking.
22:43Yeah.
22:44If you need anything, you know I'm around.
22:46Okay, you riding with me?
22:48Yeah, because I need one.
22:49I've been up here all day.
22:50I got dropped off.
22:51Okay, well, come on.
22:52Coming up on Felt Collective.
22:55You're the one who sent Shantae the Tambor.
22:57Maybe that wasn't the best way to do it.
22:59Carrie, you don't tell me what to do.
23:00Let me tell you something.
23:01Had I not said anything, y'all would be like, well, why you just didn't come to Tambor?
23:27Tonight, we're meeting the Pals at the bowling alley.
23:30This is our first time ever double dating with the Pals.
23:35And after all the stupid and nonsense rumors and drama at my focus group,
23:40I'm definitely excited about tonight.
23:42Need a little fun.
23:43You know, I let Matt win in basketball.
23:45Oh, when y'all play basketball?
23:47You're not gonna be...
23:49Oh!
23:50Oh!
23:51Oh!
23:51No good.
23:52Ball gun.
23:53I got to give them the business today.
23:57That's us.
23:58We clicked up over here.
24:01Everybody got bags over here.
24:05We throw it like a boomerang.
24:07Watch it come back.
24:08Ching, ching, ching.
24:10Yeah, like that.
24:12Hey!
24:15Hey!
24:16The bottom lane!
24:16The bottom lane!
24:17The bottom lane!
24:18The bottom lane!
24:18The bottom lane!
24:19How you doing?
24:19Matt!
24:20You better give me a back.
24:21I am more than excited to finally have the chance to sit down with the Pearsons.
24:29Oh!
24:30Dang it!
24:31And to just have fun, especially with all the drama that has been swirling with the collective.
24:37I hope he's better in bowling than he is basketball.
24:40Now, don't do that.
24:41Don't do that.
24:42I'll let you win.
24:43I'll let Matt win.
24:45I got to redeem myself.
24:46I'm gonna tell you, hey, this the night to get it.
24:48Matt thinks that he's about to walk away with another win.
24:50He got a whole other thing coming.
24:52I promise you.
24:53Pierce is walking away with a win tonight.
24:55That's just what it is, Matt.
24:59Is that heavy?
25:00Is that a heavy one?
25:01Nah.
25:05Come on, baby.
25:06Come on.
25:07Glen, come on.
25:08How you dropped the ball?
25:09My dog got caught in the hole.
25:11Come on.
25:12That's what she said.
25:14You know, I'm sizing Glen up.
25:16Oh!
25:18I'm sizing Letitia up.
25:20That might be it.
25:23And I'm thinking about me and my wife.
25:24And I'm like, you know what?
25:26It's gonna be easy money.
25:30Just missed that.
25:34Oh!
25:35Oh!
25:35Boom!
25:38Left hand.
25:39Open!
25:41Get it, get it, get it, get it!
25:43Come back up there!
25:46Oh!
25:46Oh!
25:47Oh!
25:48Oh my God.
25:50Uh-oh.
25:52There you go.
25:53There you go.
25:55There you go.
25:56There you go.
25:56Yes, sir.
25:57Yes, sir.
25:59Oh!
25:59That's okay.
26:01Now you get my strike.
26:02Yeah!
26:03Girl, we gonna let them bowl it out.
26:04We can come just here.
26:05Okay, yeah.
26:06Okay.
26:10What's up, girl?
26:11How you been?
26:11I'm good.
26:12Since the last time I seen you at the focus group.
26:16Shantae brought her own information to me.
26:20That Daman and I were not together.
26:23And I've had a boyfriend this entire time.
26:26Oh, man.
26:27That's what I wanted to know.
26:28You were the one who said Shantae to Tambra.
26:31And you said you were going with a good heart.
26:33But maybe that wasn't the best way to do it.
26:35Let me tell you something.
26:36Had I not said anything and y'all found out about it,
26:40y'all would be like, well, why you just didn't come to Tambra?
26:43I see you and Tambra trying to work on your relationship.
26:46Yeah, that was a part of me trying to show her.
26:48One thing you're gonna learn, especially within this group, Carrie,
26:51the more you hear, it's better to ask for forgiveness
26:54than it is for permission.
26:58Carrie, you don't tell me what to do.
27:00I do what I want to do, how I want to do it,
27:01and when I want to do it.
27:03So I did it.
27:04Y'all worked together though, right?
27:06Yeah, we worked together a lot.
27:07We doing the restaurant stuff, yeah.
27:08I brought it up to Leticia that, you know,
27:10I wanted to be her manager.
27:12And she said, what you mean?
27:14I didn't say manager.
27:15See?
27:15Yes.
27:16Well, what's your skills then?
27:18Managing.
27:20I just don't think it's a good idea.
27:22As a person that runs several multi-million dollar businesses,
27:26I think this is my lane to give advice on.
27:29So Glenn, baby, you're not it for Tisha.
27:32She's always working, right?
27:33Right.
27:34So that will put us in the same...
27:36You trying to connect.
27:37You trying to connect with your wife.
27:38I'm trying to get that connection.
27:40That's what we're reading.
27:40He didn't tell me that.
27:41He wants to be with you.
27:42He didn't tell me that.
27:43I think that it's extremely sweet and kind
27:46that Glenn wants to be a part of my growth,
27:49a part of my brand.
27:51But my brand is my brand,
27:53and my marriage is my marriage.
27:55Two separate things,
27:56and they have to stay separated.
27:57But anyway, this can go on.
27:59We need another date with the pause later,
28:01because I love talking to just, like, real people.
28:03You know what I'm saying?
28:05So let's finish this.
28:06Come on, girl.
28:07I don't Tisha so far back.
28:09I don't thank you.
28:09Yeah!
28:10I like you.
28:1265.
28:14I can't help you on this.
28:16Coming up on The Collective,
28:19Tambra, she's ready for our guest.
28:21Woo!
28:22Welcome, welcome to the museum of Tambra.
28:37My friends here at the Smith-Robertson Museum
28:42and Cultural Center, they have been so gracious
28:46to allow me to host my event here.
28:50This was the first African-American school
28:54for kids in the city of Jackson.
28:58Yes.
28:59So I am about to take The Collective to school.
29:02Class is in session.
29:03Hi.
29:06Hi.
29:07Hi.
29:08Hi, baby.
29:10What is this?
29:11A B.
29:12That is a B.
29:13That is a B.
29:14That is a T.
29:15Yes, very good.
29:17And then a little work here, I see.
29:18Yes!
29:19I've definitely had help.
29:20Yeah.
29:21Do you like it so far?
29:22Almost definitely.
29:23Of course.
29:25She's the highlight now.
29:26OK.
29:27OK.
29:27She's the grand finale.
29:29Yeah.
29:30Yeah.
29:30I am in the midst of greatness.
29:34I'm a modern masterpiece making statements.
29:37I am so excited to be here today
29:39to support my girl, Tambra.
29:41Hi.
29:42Well, hello.
29:43How are you doing, beautiful?
29:47Knowing Tambra, she is always over the top
29:49when she does any event.
29:51Would you all like some champagne?
29:54Meet me at the mall, at the park, the ball,
29:57at the concert, cause we back outside.
30:00Champagne.
30:01Hey.
30:02How you doing, girl?
30:02I'm good.
30:03Cute.
30:06Walking into the sympathy, I don't know what to expect.
30:09Hi, y'all.
30:09OK.
30:10We've been greeted with champagne.
30:12What is this, Tambra?
30:13I don't know what to think.
30:19How y'all doing?
30:21Doing.
30:22OK, ladies and gentlemen.
30:23Tambra, she's ready for our guest.
30:25Follow me, please.
30:27It's like a secret.
30:28I don't want a lady to go for it.
30:29There you go.
30:30Choke tag.
30:31Woo!
30:32I'm a hander.
30:34I'm a hander.
30:34I'm a hander.
30:36Welcome, welcome.
30:39To the museum of Tambra.
30:44It was brought to my attention that a couple of the girls
30:48feel like they just don't know me.
30:51Tambra said, let me reintroduce myself.
30:53Let's see.
30:54Yes.
30:56Tambra was like, girl, y'all listen.
30:58Y'all tell my child don't know me.
30:59Here it is.
31:01These are my parents.
31:02They have been married for 57 years.
31:06They're my love goals.
31:07So family is really big to me.
31:09So this is baby Tambra.
31:12So there is actually a story with this.
31:14My leg is actually broken right here.
31:16Mm.
31:17When my mom picked me up from the babysitter,
31:19my leg was broken.
31:20Mm-mm.
31:20That is one of the reasons that it took me so long
31:23for London Simone to actually go to a babysitter in school.
31:28Knowing that Tambra experienced what she experienced as a child,
31:33it gives me so much insight as to why she's decided in the past
31:38to move the way she moved with London Simone.
31:42This is my actual cheerleading outfit in middle school.
31:47Go team!
31:48I was co-captain of the cheerleaders, which explains the loud voice.
31:53Which explains why I project.
31:55I have been cheering for people my entire life.
31:58I think a lot of you knew about this journey, the fibroid journey.
32:04Mm-hmm.
32:04I have dealt with fibroids since my 20s.
32:07This surgery where they removed 39 fibroids, it was my most difficult surgery,
32:14which was one of the reasons I was thankful that I had actually frozen my embryos.
32:20Now that I know Latrice is dealing with the same thing,
32:26I really do wish Latrice the best on this fibroid journey.
32:33And this is when I was pregnant.
32:36Okay.
32:37Some of the bells have missed this part of my life.
32:39When London Simone was born, I was in ICU, she was in NICU.
32:44I only saw London Simone for the very first time on a picture.
32:47This picture right here is actually the first picture I saw of London Simone.
32:53I've never seen Tambra be this open about London Simone, ever.
32:58She's always kept the baby away from the collective and protected.
33:03You better let me meet my niece.
33:05I don't think nobody's met her.
33:06Nobody?
33:08Girl, don't let her out the house.
33:10Tambra?
33:11Yes?
33:12Daman is ready.
33:14What?
33:15Okay.
33:16Baby, what are we about to have?
33:18Hold on.
33:19Hold on.
33:20Hold on.
33:22Hold on.
33:22Hold on.
33:22Hold on.
33:25My biggest accomplishment for this time.
33:44I am loving this moment.
33:47Now, this right here, I was not expecting.
33:51Oh, my God.
33:53She is a little cutie patootie.
33:55Oh, my goodness.
33:56Hi.
33:57Look how she looking at you two.
33:58Hello.
33:59Is she sleeping?
34:01Is she sleeping?
34:02Are you okay?
34:03I over-stimulated.
34:04Oh, my God.
34:05She said, who is these helpers?
34:07She oughta pulled in in my Maserati.
34:09I don't have time for that.
34:11Are you on a walk?
34:12Baby, where's she?
34:12Come on, girl.
34:13Oh, my God.
34:14I said baby.
34:17She said no.
34:18She said I'm over.
34:19You said I'm over.
34:20I'm over.
34:22Listen.
34:22You better for sharing your little princess with the collective.
34:26Honestly.
34:27It meant a lot to finally meet Tambra's daughter.
34:32Everything that we should have known in years in this sisterhood
34:35about Tambra, we learned tonight.
34:37I definitely look at Tambra in a different light now.
34:40She's a mom.
34:41And I feel like I understand her a little better.
34:44I wish I could stay, but I can't stay.
34:45I know.
34:45I know.
34:46You have to go to work.
34:48Seven o'clock.
34:48I know.
34:49He has to go to work.
34:50Hey.
34:51Hey.
34:51Think about hanging out with the guys.
34:52I thought I'd do something.
34:53Just let me know.
34:55If we could get the guys maybe to put the bitches together,
34:59the seats together, so we can kind of hang out a little bit.
35:04And there's also an area for the guys to hang out
35:06if they want to hang out, too.
35:08Okay.
35:08I am excited that this night has gone so well.
35:12And it seems like the bells have received this event very well.
35:17However, there is just one piece of unfinished business
35:22that we need to discuss.
35:24Tambra, this took work.
35:25Yes.
35:26And it was very thoughtful.
35:27Yes.
35:29I just wanted to share.
35:30I love it.
35:31We appreciate it.
35:32Thanks for sharing.
35:33But on a more serious note, I would like to tell you this
35:35about what Shantae said to me.
35:37Mm-hmm.
35:37It's a rumor.
35:38Shantae was saying she got it from a reliable source.
35:41She needed to slap her source.
35:45You wanna talk trash?
35:47Well, you better watch your back.
35:49I got all my sisters and we coming for your dinner.
35:52Yeah, yeah, yeah.
35:53What Shantae said to me.
35:54It's a rumor.
35:55You know, Shantae was saying she got it from a reliable source.
35:58She needed to slap her source.
35:59But with that being said, I definitely didn't want Shantae
36:03around town spreading a rumor that's not true.
36:06And that's our station client.
36:07I did not want him to hear that from anybody else.
36:11So Daman and I, we went and saw Mr. Juice.
36:14I don't wanna come to you with any type of mess.
36:17But there's a rumor going around that.
36:19You're my boyfriend, not him.
36:21You're actually my boyfriend.
36:22You know what it is.
36:23We in Jackson.
36:24This is a small community.
36:26It's always so many rumors.
36:28And hey, welcome to the J.
36:31I hope this is the very last time
36:35that anyone brings up my name and Dr. Juice plans
36:41in a negative way when it comes to the collective.
36:46It sounds like they're getting long over there, though.
36:48How about you guys?
36:48I mean, you're a teacher, man, y'all.
36:50It's better.
36:51You know, I'm trying to persuade her to let me manage her.
36:56Yeah.
36:58Why you laughing?
36:59You made me take a different approach
37:01and not necessarily call it manager.
37:03Right.
37:04Maybe I should change the word, right?
37:06Yes.
37:06Because that's a little struggle.
37:08Like, let me just contribute to your beast.
37:12That might sound better.
37:13Contribute.
37:14Listening to, you know, the guys talk is making me realize
37:17maybe I need to change my tactics the way that I come in Tisha
37:21when I'm trying to be a supportive husband.
37:25Have you met my bonus daughter, Amber?
37:27Yes.
37:27So she says, are you, you know, ready to start back then?
37:29I'm like, girl, yeah.
37:30Like, I'm ready.
37:31I'm going outside.
37:32I said, girl, I'm on the date apps.
37:34I'm on all of them.
37:35She was like, date apps?
37:36Date apps?
37:37She was like, deal on these date apps.
37:38She said, Mama Marie.
37:39I am a matchmaker.
37:41Matt and I have matchmade several...
37:42We can do that.
37:43...marriages in my friend group.
37:44And we can have...
37:45We can have...
37:46For every man.
37:47We can have each one of the guys to bring in a friend.
37:51Can we hear Marie's preference first?
37:52What do you want?
37:53What's your preference?
37:53Okay, what about women?
37:55Can we do men?
37:55Oh, hell no.
37:56I don't want a woman.
37:57Look at...
37:57I know somebody right now that's dating a man and a woman.
38:02Now, I love beautiful women, but I don't want one for myself.
38:05But what I will share is this.
38:08When I was 18 years old, I had a threesome.
38:14So the goal was, like, we didn't have sex.
38:19She did on me.
38:21She went down there on me.
38:23Well, what we said was true then.
38:25What we said was true.
38:26Would you date a woman?
38:28Girl, of course.
38:31What kind of question is that?
38:33Is this too much information?
38:34What?
38:34You like the part of what she did, but afterwards,
38:37you wanted a little bit more.
38:38It's not.
38:38Is that what you're saying?
38:39I don't want that from a woman.
38:41You want it from the man.
38:42I want it from a man.
38:43That wasn't for me.
38:45And I learned early on when I was a teenager, it wasn't for me.
38:48Live your truth, Marie.
38:49Absolutely.
38:50I'm not ashamed of anything I have experienced in my life.
38:54I don't regret that.
38:55I experienced it.
38:56However, it's not for me.
38:58All right, ladies.
38:59Well, we're going to table this for the next time we get together.
39:01Because I know my baby is somewhere running around.
39:05I know she is probably ready to go.
39:10I think tonight went great.
39:13And I am looking forward to see where we go from here as a collective.
39:20Oh, Lord.
39:21Come on.
39:21This was nice.
39:22This was nice.
39:23This was nice.
39:24But how have y'all been?
39:26We did good.
39:27How have y'all been?
39:28That's good.
39:29Good.
39:29I can't even lie.
39:30It's better.
39:31Mm-hmm.
39:31Right?
39:33Hopefully.
39:33Yep.
39:34Mm-hmm.
39:34Baby.
39:35Yep.
39:35It's better.
39:37Glendale, tell Tisha she need to give you some.
39:40Oh, she's celibate.
39:42Ah!
39:42She's...
39:43How has that been?
39:44Good .
39:45Babe, we should try it.
39:47Don't.
39:49Don't do it for me.
39:50A man got two heads.
39:51That's all of them.
39:52It's different.
39:52No.
39:53I knew you was going to side with him.
39:55But you have to look at him.
39:56He's a man.
39:57Just say y'all want to hang out with each other.
39:59Nah, seriously.
40:00Nah, we want to hang out with our wife like it used to be.
40:02It used to be this time.
40:03I'm with it.
40:04I think we should do a double date.
40:06Well, can you guys plan a perfect date then if we're going to go on a date?
40:09We got this.
40:09For all of us, not for y'all.
40:11We can ride four wheelers and talk at the same time.
40:14For all of us.
40:14How about that?
40:14Nothing like that.
40:15Nah, I want to eat.
40:17I'm genuinely excited to see what this double date could bring.
40:20I'm hoping that this is the start of a new chapter with the Rodgers.
40:26I'm definitely hoping that this is one step towards moving forward and just coexisting peacefully.
40:32Y'all be careful in this weather.
40:34All right, you guys too.
40:36OK.
40:36Hopefully this ice let me slide into something.
40:39You know what I'm saying?
40:41It ain't.
40:41It ain't.
40:41Next on Bell Collective.
40:43Oh.
40:44Hey, girl.
40:46Hey, girl.
40:46You look so cute.
40:47You, girl.
40:48Booty.
40:49I am finally back from Columbia with my new smile.
40:53They had to put shots in my mouth to numb them.
40:55And every time they did it, my blood pressure went up higher and higher.
40:59And they was like, we don't want you to have a heart attack.
41:03What's the update on the mobile location?
41:05We have it on the market.
41:06But as long as we stay on the market, we are emerging.
41:08Right.
41:11You don't comprehend, like, the extent of everything that I do.
41:15Right.
41:16I understand the state.
41:17What you can do, you can do it on a laptop.
41:19What you do, you push the button.
41:21So what's the big deal?
41:22I have to make sure that this business is still functioning.
