Previously, on
"The Real Housewives of Atlanta".
IFit has invited
all of you to Jamaica!
[cheers and applause]
This is a couples trip.
You can bring your boo.
- You gotta get a boo, Marlo.
- You bri... you bring no date.
You better get
one of them boys.
You have the biggest brand
out of this group
that's not a brand.
If you just did a small line,
you could use that money
- to get to the next level.
- Mm-hmm.
Kenya, no one in this group
will take me away
from Michael and William.
Oh, 'cause you
gave 'em away.
Bitch, you're trash.
He hopped
the community gate.
Then he came, and he sat
on our front porch.
- Oh, my God!
- God, that's scary.
- What the (BLEEP) is wrong wit' you?
- Arf-arf.
I'm not happy.
So, tonight,
I just called for cars.
I just want
everyone to leave.
Thanks for nothing.
I don't think I've ever
been kicked off a trip before.
This is a first for me.
[♪♪]
I ain't never
skipped a beat or a bag.
K A N D I
I keep you
on the edges of your seat.
D R E W
I always had the juice,
but now I got the peach.
M A R L O
You're always
living in the moment
when you are the moment.
K E N Y A
Spring, summer,
or September,
I'm the one
you always remember.
S H E R E E
I may be a rookie,
but this isn't my first race.

Season 14 Episode 12
Episode Title: "Trust (Planning) Issues"
Aired on: July 31, 2022.
[♪♪]
Lord, help me
with these boys.
What this cup say?
"The Lord is my strength."
Yes, Exodus.
You are my strength, Lord.
For real, you really are.
You know,
I was a junior deacon.
I also heard that she managed
the medical practice,
and then she got fired.
- You did?
- You fired me.
Why?
'Cause I fell asleep
on one of dad's exam tables.
I really don't remember
firing you.
You did.
[♪♪]
So, how is the music
stuff coming?
It's going pretty good.
When I get to
hear some stuff?
I'll let you hear some.
I have a clean version.
- I wanna hear both versions.
- Uh-huh.
You know, I'm working
on She by Sheree,
and I am going to have
some unisex sweatshirt,
- hoodie, jogger.
- All right.
- I may need you to model.
- All right. When? When? When?
I'll let you know when.
I had to bring on a consultant
to help me with the sketches
and things like that,
and she's actually
gonna help me
see the entire thing
through.
I realize that I'm going to make
She by Sheree a success.
I have hired a designer,
and we are in the process
of putting my thoughts
onto paper.
I'm making a lotta changes.
You see it on paper.
You're like, ooh,
I would do this different.
I would do that different.
That's where I am, right now.
This is, like,
do or die for me.
I can't keep talking
about She by Sheree
and then not doing it.
If it does not happen
this time,
She by Sheree
is gonna have a funeral.
[♪♪]
You ready, babe?
A little trailer.
[laughing]
Let me try one
of these wings out
- and make sure they're okay.
- Oh, my God.
[laughing]
- What up? What up?
- Hello, hello.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
- We got a cake?
- We do.
Happy Birthday.
That looks good.
Mm-hmm.
But who all did you invite?
- I invited just our cousins.
- Mm-hmm.
I invited Drew 'cause,
you know, she has a son
- that he likes to play with.
- Yeah.
And I told Kenya,
so that'll be good.
- You gonna hold it?
- Mm-hmm.
You can't drop it.
Ace is turning
six years old.
It always sucks
when your birthday
lands in the middle
of the week.
You still wanna do somethin',
so I'm having a smaller party
for him today,
but I'm gonna have
a very big party for him
this weekend.
Oh, we got more people!
- How ya doin'?
- Hey!
- What's up, y'all?
- We at the party.
- Come on in.
- Where the birthday boy?
These are our cous...
Oh, yeah,
we-we haven't brought him
over yet.
- Okay.
- These are our cousins.
Hi, cousins.
Let me go get
my two little ones,
and then we will
get this thing started.
You're being so shy.
Surprise!
Happy birthday!
[cheers and applause]
I'm so excited
because it's my birthday!
[cheers and applause]
Yay!
We got another one!
- Hey!
- Hey, girl.
Hey, Ace, birthday boy.
Hi, cutie.
- Muah.
- You look pretty.
- Wow, you do, too.
- Thank you.
Come on, everybody.
Let's get around the table.
Blaze!
Too far away.
- Make your wish.
- Blow it hard.
Make your wish.
Hey!
[cheers and applause]
I was gonna take the kids
into the gaming truck.
Y'all wanna
go check it out?
- Uh-huh.
- Come on, Ace.
All right.
Here we go. Ooh!
Ace has gotten into
video games,
so I thought it would be
a fun idea
to get a gaming truck.
I want every birthday
for my kids
to be all the way turnt.
Where should
the birthday boy sit?
Ace, you wanna play
Mario Kart?
Now, what you gonna play?
- Um, Fortnite.
- Yes!
[♪♪]
- Knock-knock.
- Hi.
Oh, yes, lime green!
- Hey, how are you?
- Welcome to Le'Archive.
- Baby, you look so pretty.
- [indistinct].
You're gettin' ready
for Jamaica.
Yes.
I'll get you
some rum punch.
Okay.
Let me look around
before San ya
gets lookin', okay?
I could see you in this
Louis Vuitton swimsuit.
- I see!
- Here you go, Sheree.
- Really cute, I like this.
- Sheree, so cute.
So, wait,
what you been doin'?
How you feel in?
How you... I mean...
Oh, my God, girl.
Michael told Tye that, uh,
he really miss being home.
He said,
"But I'm gonna be honest.
William does nothing
but lay on the bed
and play Roblox all day.
He doesn't take a shower.
He doesn't brush his teeth."
Oh, Lord.
I don't know what to do.
Should I shorten
the 30 days
because are they gettin'
structure there,
or are they on vacation?
So, I called my sister.
I'm like, "Why is he allowed
to be on the computer all day
- and play Roblox?"
- Mm-hmm.
That's gonna make him not
even wanna come back home.
Right.
And she's like,
"No, I'm taking it from him.
I'm gonna take it."
I'm like, okay, whatever.
That Versace hat, Sheree,
I could see you wearing that
with this.
I'm trying to get
that credit card.
I-I... hey.
[screaming]
Hey, party people!
Look, rum punch...
Rum punch.
Yes, rum punch!
We're in Jamaica.
- [laughing]
- How are you, baby?
You finally make it
to Le'Archive.
I did.
Oh, my goodness.
We have your drink
right over there.
Cheers to Jamaica.
Rum punch!
Rum punch! Rum punch!
- Boom, boom, boom!
- Boom, boom, boom!
Let's sit down, eat, talk.
We got a lot to catch up on.
Yes.
What's going on
with the security?
- What happened with the guy?
- Right, right.
So, we spoke to
the police department,
and, basically,
they set up
to just do tours
of the community.
You should just get
an off-duty police officer
- that sits at the entrance.
- Right.
- That what Cardi B has.
- Hmm, that's a good idea.
She lives about a mile
down the street from me.
What y'all talkin' about?
Yeah, they was talkin'
about 24-hour security.
Y'all payin'
for 24-hour security?
Well, I live behind
a armed gate 'cause I...
A armed gate?
What do you mean?
Yeah, like, a security
guard stay there.
- Oh, that sits at the front.
- Mm-hmm.
It gives me a sense
of comfort.
- Yeah.
- Yeah, see, that sh** is dope.
- I love Roswell.
- Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
I like being in this area.
For me, it's just
convenient to everything.
To get to that airport
every time you need to go
and produce a play
on Broadway...
What's been going on
with the play?
Lord, I'm devastated.
We had to shut the play down.
Why?
Well, that new wave
of omicron,
it hit the cast.
[gasps]
Right. And so, basically,
we had to shut the show down
for at least ten days.
That could bankrupt
the-the show.
It was gonna
bankrupt the show,
so we had to basically
just shut it down.
Wow.
We did everything
we could, and it's like,
you feel like you failed.
Yeah, you can't
control COVID.
It's just been tough
all around.
It was just crazy because
so many people had great things
to say about the show.
Then when this happened,
it just... it took us down!
To me,
um, I am
a Black woman.
You know, I come from
a single parent home.
I did not have money
handed to me,
but people
just look at me
as everything
that I've done.
It's like, oh, everything
just happens for her.
It doesn't just happen.
These are things
that I have to work for.
But my whole life, I feel like
I want to make it happen
because I know it's not
just for me.
It was more of...
trying to even
the playing field
for African Americans
who are creators
and want to be on Broadway.
I'm sorry. I didn't...
I didn't even hear about it.
Like, I've been feeling
really blah.
Uh-huh.
Sheree wore her bright colors
to brighten me up.
- Yes.
- I say I needed that.
I mean, last time we saw
each other, it was horrible.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, my God.
Especially for you.
I felt so bad for you.
Come on.
I'm goin' wit' you.
Let's go in the car.
The four of us
are gonna go.
And then I gotta beg
someone to go with me.
- Come on, Marlo. Marlo!
- I wanted to get away.
I didn't want this drama.
So far, me and Kenya
have gotten along great.
I just, at the end
of the day, felt like,
if you're there,
if you're coming,
- why cause so much opposition?
- She drove there by herself.
Like, you know what I mean?
Like, she was gonna ruin
- the trip for everybody.
- For everyone.
And I was disappointed
in Kandi, again.
Kandi has shown who she is.
- That's who she rocks with.
- Yeah.
But who's right, is right.
Who's wrong, is wrong.
True.
- Cheers. Hydration in 2022.
- Cheers. I know.
[laughing]
Hydration.
I'm trying to limit
the liquor intake.
- Ut-oh.
- No, I'm telling you, girl.
Because of all that
happened in Blue Ridge.
Girl, it was
a very bipolar trip.
I just think Marlo is...
Got a bone,
like, a hard on for me.
So, you need a bone.
Is that what you're saying?
- [laughing]
- Uh, maybe.
The bones was funny.
Here, get it. Fetch.
- [laughing]
- Okay, don't play with me.
Play with that.
You are literally
the bone carrier.
I am...
[laughing]
- Move over, Sheree.
- Literally.
Move over,
Sheree and Kandi!
I hope Jamaica is not
gonna be like Blue Ridge.
- Oh, chile.
- 'Cause we can't have
that drama
that we had in Blue Ridge
in Jamaica.
So, I felt like,
when we were in New York,
the trip was a little bit
off-balance.
We had some people
who had couples,
some people who didn't.
So, for the Jamaica trip,
you can bring a friend,
or you can bring a new guy.
Ross and I
are going together,
and so I want everybody
to have a plus one.
So, at least
if we're doing activities
that require two people,
you got somebody.
But I was just
thinking, though,
there is three of you
that are single. Kenya...
So, let me call the other
single lady and tell her.
[phone ringing]
Oh, wait a minute.
Sanya's calling.
- Oh, for real?
- Oh.
Hello.
Oh, look at this hair.
You look pretty.
What are you doin'?
I am actually sitting here
with my girlfriends.
I would love to invite
all of you
to come to my house
on Saturday.
Just kind of like a prelude
to our Jamaica trip.
I really want this
to be a couples trip.
I want you
to bring somebody.
- She told us
it was a couples trip.
- She did. Yeah.
Okay,
so, I just want to be clear
that the Jamaica trip
is a couples trip,
um, because I felt like,
you know, you...
Goodbye.
Girl, I'm tired of this.
- Listen.
- Bye, girl.
Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.
Okay, so, I just want
to be clear
that the Jamaica trip
is a couples trip.
I'm tired of this.
- Listen, girl.
- Bye, girl.
Listen.
What the (BLEEP)?
She's pushing
the couples trip situation.
You're not gonna
do that to me, okay?
What the hell?
Not cool.
- She feels she's queen bee.
- Why would she do that?
'Cause she knows
she ain't got nobody to bring.
My thing is,
if we know that Kenya
- is going through a divorce...
- Right.
Like, why are we forcing
the point of her having
- to bring somebody on a...
- Exactly.
You can F
all the way off.
San ya is not
a dumb girl.
She knows that I'm not
dating anyone, right now.
No, don't single me out.
I don't have to go.
I thought she was being
really insensitive.
I'm sure I'll hang up on her,
again, if she tried it.
I don't need it.
I gotta talk
to her sidebar.
That sh** ain't cool.
- That ain't cool.
- Please do it.
Just kill her with
kindness like I do.
- [laughing]
- Don't even lie.
That-that makes
so much sense.
That is not
working, Marlo.
[♪♪]
- Hi, Dr. Tart.
- Hey, Marlo, Dr. Tart.
- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
- Come on back.
- Likewise.
Thank you so much
for seeing me.
Hey, of course,
of course.
Oh, my God, I never thought
I would be seeing the real...
It's a couch.
Like, the couch.
I'll just lay down and...
[laughing]
Well, you have
to be comfortable, right?
We're talking about
important things.
I can't do it.
Well, Marlo,
I'm a Christian psychologist,
so I give believers the option
for me to open up in prayer,
- if that doesn't make you...
- I will love that.
I was referred
to Dr. Tart by Sheree
because I don't know what
my parenting is doing.
Am I doing the right thing?
Am I making
the right decisions?
It's so hard for me
because I never planned
on having children because
I didn't wanna be a mother
like my mother.
- I need that, right now.
- All right. All right.
Hello, God. We thank you for
bringing in Marlo today, Lord.
We ask and pray that you
facilitate change, Lord.
We believe in you.
We thank you, Lord. Amen.
Amen.
Dr. Tart, I'm such
a nervous wreck, right now.
Here you go.
Here you go.
I'm such a nervous wreck.
What's going on?
God.
[sobbing]
Take your time.
What's wrong?
So, I have custody
of my nephews.
Their mom
has mental issues.
She's incarcerated,
right now.
So, two and a half,
three years ago,
I got a call from my nephews,
and they was like,
"Auntie, can you
come get us?"
So, I went and got them.
And then it's
like months went on,
and months went on,
and they're still here.
- Okay.
- But I freaked out,
and I told Michael
and William to get out.
I called my little sister.
I'm like, "You know what?
- "I can't do it anymore."
- What happened?
I was frustrated
because they just take
everything for granted.
I'm like, "William, make sure
you make up your bed."
He's like, "Oh,
I made it up, auntie."
I go upstairs.
The bed is not made.
And Mike got mad at me
when I went to New York.
He punched the wall.
Okay.
There's no structure,
and it makes me feel like sh**
I'm never consistent
with the punishment.
In these three years,
they're a part of my life.
They're like my best friends.
I wanna watch
a movie with them.
I wanna be goofy with them.
But I want them still
to respect me and know
when I say somethin',
I mean business.
I can say this
as a parent.
It's not fun
all the time.
I'll tell you boys
don't listen to talk.
And then I yell
like my mom.
You don't have to yell.
And that doesn't
do any good everyone says.
You don't have to yell.
You can be strong
versus yell strong.
But am I too strong?
Am I being mean to them?
You wanna be consistent
in the message
that you're sending them.
You wanna help
them to be good.
So, I wanna equip you
with some things
that is actually gonna
help you and them.
One, family meetings
each week.
We're gonna talk about
how things are going.
Let's start with
the positives.
Let's start with some things
that need to change.
Second thing, you wanna
give 'em a schedule.
I would like for you all
to pull out your homework
at 7 o'clock.
Third thing
is quality time.
Every Tuesday
is taco Tuesdays,
- if I'm not working.
- Okay, okay.
And it's like I have
to make sure that happens more.
F-first of all, can you
give yourself credit?
You, of the other options,
are the best chance
that they have.
Even though
I miss 'em so much,
and I feel I do
need a break,
is it gonna be bad if I let
them stay there 30 days?
I don't think you're wrong
because we can't discount
what would a happened
if you let 'em stay.
What we wanna
be on guard for,
is making 'em not feel
like they were abandoned.
That's what
I'm worried about.
I'm gonna let 'em
come back.
But part of me, I'm not
gonna lie, I'm afraid.
I'm afraid of them...
Somethin' happening,
and it's like
I failed them.
So, once you're consistent,
they're gonna follow.
I want structure
and consistency for me
and for them, and I want
these boys to be super men.
I really do.
Now, you're saying order
has to be restored.
When you come back,
it can't be business as usual.
Yeah.
Well, I have to say coming
here tonight has helped.
Well, I'm glad.
How often do
I need to come see you?
- And...
- Can I bring the boys to you?
- You can.
- Oh, that...
Give me a hug
on that one.
Would it better if you
see us together or separate?
- As a family.
- Okay, well, next time,
when I let them
back in the house,
- we'll be together, okay?
- Okay, sounds good.
Thank you so much
for seeing me.
- Thank you.
- I totally appreciate it.
Comin' up next...
I'm done wit' y'all.
[♪♪]
Where is Kaela?
Riley?
- All these toys.
- You know, it's so funny.
It's like we don't hardly
have all of our kids
in the house
at the same time.
Thank you, buddy.
You got
the little Nerf gun.
You almost took
my eye out with that thing.
[laughing]
Can you believe
we got four kids?
Hi.
- Four kids.
- Oh, my gosh.
- What's up, K-Boogie?
- Nothin'. I'm tired.
- Here's little R and B. Oww.
- Hello.
So, how are y'all, uh,
New Yorkers doing
here in Atlanta?
[laughing]
- Bored.
- Bored?
Are you doin' good
in school?
Yeah.
Obviously adjusting after
everything was online
the first year,
but we're on a upward slope.
That's what
I'm talkin' about,
- upward slope.
- Yeah.
Riley and Kaela are
both in New York City
living their best life.
Riley is a sophomore
now at NYU,
and Kaela is in New York
working in TV production.
She's doing really good
for herself,
and I'm happy
and proud of her.
So, what type of liquor
y'all drinkin'?
No, we're sober
over here.
- Whatever.
- Oh, God,
you ain't gotta
lie, Riley.
- [laughing]
- All right. I got it.
We're sober.
Anyway, we are finally
going to get our trust done.
Mm-hmm.
We've been talkin' about it
for a very long time.
Really, you can have
three different trusts.
If you have certain desires,
put 'em in that trust.
You have desires.
We'll put those assets
in those trusts.
And then you'll have a trust
in the middle that...
With your shared ideas.
We both had properties
and different things
before we got married,
and then we got things
that we've accumulated
since we've been married.
And, you know, we-we
will be having to figure out
how those things
get divided.
So, like, think about
the Jersey crib.
I will leave
that to Kaela.
- You know what I mean?
- I feel like that's fair.
But my thing is, as far as
finances from the estate
that we have together,
I don't want it to be
where you get a big lump sum,
and they might be, oh,
I got $5 million,
and you look up,
you make a few bad decisions,
and that five is $130,000.
So, I would rather
give out sums
in different stages
of your life.
So, instead
of giving it all to you,
it's spread out
and that you're able
to have financial wealth
throughout your whole life.
- That's...
- What's that face, Riley?
- I would not do that.
- No.
People say it
all the time.
I mean, I still think
I would prefer
to get it earlier
because, like,
what if I wanna
invest in a business?
Like, I'd wanna do,
like, my businesses
starting in,
like, my 20s.
But that's part
of the trust.
Have you done
the due diligence to understand
that this business
operates this way?
Do you have a plan?
I mean, realistically,
we keep talking about,
Lord forbid if somethin'
happened to the both of us,
but what if somethin'
happened to one of us?
Mm-hmm.
And then the other one
is still here.
See, and that's where
we differ, because...
That's where
we differ.
You look at me like,
"Oh, you're gonna be strict.
"You ain't gonna
give 'em nothin'.
You're gonna do"...
I'm like that's not true.
That's what you
give off. Yeah.
I mean, yeah,
it's definitely different.
And not even that,
but I think you guys
treat your kids' lifestyles
very different.
- Look at this view.
- Sixteen...
You got a high rise
apartment in the city.
Kaela said she's
going to New York.
Wait, what?
Only thing I did tell her,
at least if you are gonna go,
you should work.
Stack some money.
So, personally,
I'd be in a bit of a situation.
- No, that's not...
- Yes, I would.
You would not.
That's not true.
- I would be.
- And you know what?
- You know what? You...
- I, definitely,
I don't think
you would agree
to give her the apartments
and stuff that I would agree to.
That's not true.
That's not true.
I think it's also
how much I spend.
Like, I don't think you would
allow me to be part
of the decision as much
as I am with my mom.
You're saying, he would say,
"Yeah, well, this is budget,
"so you got to figure out
how to make it work."
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
That's not true.
Do you think
he would do that?
Well, daddy...
[laughing]
You think...
So, you think...
We all think that,
not just me.
Time out. No.
My dream is to teach you
to be self-efficient.
- And you know what?
- I will do that.
- I want that, too.
- Time out. Time out.
- Time out. Time out.
- I'll give them everything.
Can I... can I say
what I'm saying?
Go ahead.
For you to
be independent.
If you get
my money, it's a bonus.
- Literally.
- Life lessons.
If your parents are not
here to teach you...
And that's
a perfect word.
You always wanna
teach a lesson.
Everything is like, "Oh,
she needs to learn a lesson."
- [sighs]
- Y'all...
And plus, you have
a mom instinct.
He thinks, to me, he thinks
business-wise all the time.
It's never daddy
and business.
It's business
most of the time.
Am I gonna have
a tipping allowance?
Stop.
You don't know how
to show affection.
I'm trying to make
you tough, kid.
I expect a lot out of Kaela,
and I'm proud of her.
She's doing her thing.
She's got
her own apartment.
She pay her own bills.
That's part of
that tough love.
One day, I'm gonna be gone,
and I need to know
that you can
handle yourself.
I don't think you
and I always think the same.
So, that's why
I don't know if I trust you
to make all
the decisions for me.
That's bad.
How is it
really bad, babe?
It's really bad
that you think that,
if somethin'
happened to you,
that I wouldn't make sure
Riley was right.
I think it's... ed up.
It just shows how
disengaged we are.
Y'all done wore me out.
I'm done wit' y'all.
Y'all so disrespectful.
Get that paperwork right.
I don't want no smoke.
Yes, Todd will do what
he thinks needs to be done,
but will it be
what I think?
We have a lot of
things together.
So, how do we
manage that?
Ooh.
Them ungrateful kids.
Oh, my God!
I think his
feelings are hurt.
Oh, yeah, his feelings
is probably hurt.
I mean, I was just
telling the truth.
Comin' up next...
Your tone was
very condescending.
Was it?
That's not how
you're-you're supposed to
♪ La la la la la la ♪
♪ la la la la ♪
♪ look ♪
Please give me more.
You wanna do it now?
[phone dings]
I actually didn't even know
it was Sheree's birthday
until two days ago.
And so, I decided,
since we were all
getting together anyway,
why not celebrate her
and make it
a special moment
for her, too?
Yes.

Hi. Welcome to
Melanated Fabrics.
Hi. Awesome.
My name is Brittany.
Welcome in.
- Hi. How are you?
- Hi. How are you?
- This is Mimi.
- Nice to meet you.
- You, too.
- Yes.
Do you know, uh, what
you're interested in?
Yes. I'm, uh,
revamping a line.
- Nice.
- Yeah.
Okay, so, are you interested
in knits, or wovens,
- fabrics that stretch?
- Uh...
definitely fabrics
that stretch,
- uh, knits.
- Okay.
I'm not just gonna
put anything out there.
So, right now, I am
still sourcing fabrics.
I'm still sourcing
all the notions.
These, right here,
are woven fabrics,
so they wouldn't work if you're
looking for, like, a knit.
I am really trying
to make sure
I have everything in place.
Are you gonna have a show?
I want-I want
a huge show.
- A huge show.
- I love it.
I want a huge show.
That's exciting.
Is it menswear? Women swear?
- Is it both? Everything?
- It's...
Well, it started out
as women's.
But I've gotten so many
requests from men.
- Mm-hmm.
- Oh, okay.
Who are like, "Oh,
I want a jogger, too."
Yeah.
- With men...
- Yes.
There will be a-a VPL.
- You know what that is?
- Uh-uh.
You know what it is?
Never heard of it.
A visual print line.
- Like, they like that.
- Oh, like, a visual print line.
- A visual print line.
- Oh, they like to...
give you a little peek,
a little sneak.
Yeah, just a little...
A little sneak peek.
- [laughing]
- Oh.
I mean, hey, both men
and women like to see
a little somethin' dangling
every now and then.
So, I'm gonna give
the people what they want.
These are actually new in.
These will be fantastic
for dresses, some velvets,
which will be fantastic
if you wanna glam up the jogger.
Yeah, yes.
This is a Liverpool knit.
This could be actually
good for joggers.
It has a great weight.
My birthday is approaching,
and I made a promise
to myself
that this year
I am going to make
She by Sheree a reality.
Do you have more stock?
We have some really
good wholesalers
that we're in
close contact with.
- Okay.
- We're happy to share those.
So, they're wholesalers.
They can get you
all the stock that you need.
Okay.
After dealing with
the Tyrone situation,
for once, I do not
feel bad about
putting Sheree first.
- Let's do the gray.
- Which color did you like?
I like the gray.
I like the nude.
Okay.
We're able to get
more of this, if needed.
These, yeah,
these are reorderable.
- Mm-hmm.
- Okay.
Here are the samples here.
I have them cut.
Oh, that is amazing.
- Thank you so much.
- Yes, absolutely.
We're always here to help.
Okay.
[♪♪]
What up, babe?
How you feelin'?
I'm feelin' good,
like a million dollars.
[laughing]
You still feeling good after
meeting with our daughters?
Oh, I don't
(BLEEP) with them.
What?
Why would you say that?
They're very entitled.
It didn't feel good.
You wasn't over there takin'
stuff personal, were you?
Oh, it's always personal.
We are a family,
and it should be a space
where they can feel
comfortable telling you
- how they really feel.
- Oh, no, they can,
but I... I'm not supposed
to take it any kind of way?
Like, you didn't trust that
if somethin' happened to you,
and Riley was here with me,
that you didn't trust
that I would
take care of her
or make sure she was good.
- And...
- Um, there's a difference.
I think you would
take care of her.
- Uh-huh.
- But it's obvious
that I'm a little
bit more free
with giving out
the coins than you are.
Let's just put it
that way.
Probably I am gonna
be more structured.
So, when you do say
you don't trust
that I would do
what you would do...
- Mm-hmm.
- I probably wouldn't.
So, whatever you got,
please leave it for them.
- Sure.
- And put it in writing.
Make sure your thing
is detailed out
to where they ain't even
gotta ask me a question.
Yeah, I mean,
I definitely will.
The estate planning
has been stressful,
but the two of us
can always somehow
come together
and see eye to eye.
Also, we need to just
buckle down and get it done.
Well, moving forward,
we gotta figure out
how to continue building
this whole empire situation.
What you talkin' about?
Well, you know,
I have been really
down in the dumps
about the whole play.
That was, like,
a really tough blow,
but the crazy thing is,
one of the other producers
reached out,
asking would I possibly
be interested
in being a producer
on another Broadway show.
But the other thing...
And it's probably
gonna be a dope show.
I did talk to Nick
about it,
and he was like, "I don't know
if you should do it because
'Thoughts of a Colored Man'
closed early,
and this show could be
in jeopardy
of the same thing."
I mean, that's
the scary thing.
- Yeah.
- I'm thinking about it.
I'm not gonna just
jump on it because...
I think you jump on it.
Everybody wants
to be so instant.
Like, your first show,
you get a Tony.
Like, come on.
Like, why can't you have
two shows that close,
and you go for
the third ones?
Yeah.
I think it just shows
your dedication
to wantin' to be
in that community.
Oh, wow, she came back.
I respect her.
Well...
I love how you
push me, babe.
I don't know.
That's how I feel, man.
I guess I think
a little differently.
Yeah.
We bump heads a lot,
but one thing about Todd,
he knows how
to motivate me
and to keep me
goin', honey.
Give me a hug.
Y'all wear me out.
[groans, sighs]
I have the perfect
partner in life.
Do that play
and see what happens.
It'll just be a few dollars
the kids won't get.
[laughing]
But it'll be somethin'
you wanted to do.
Comin' up next...
As you are getting older,
maybe you just
don't remember.
Bitch, you better hope
you look like this
when you get my age.
[♪♪]
All right.
Party people, [indistinct].
All right, so,
what we got, Rakeem?
What we got?
What's happening?
We got these
happy birthday balloons
- we need to hang up somewhere.
- Oh, nice.
I got the streamers.
- Okay.
- Bottles, the whole setup.
- Okay, cool.
- So, uh, photo booth
actually is landing
in, like, 30 seconds.
- Perfect!
- Yeah.
This is exciting.
Ooh, smells good.
So, we'll do the cake, gifts,
everything right there.
- Sharon!
- Hey, guys.
- [indistinct], cutie.
- What's up?
Um, so, okay, we're
gonna hand it to Rakeem.
So, maybe you want
to hold that side,
so it don't pop
onto the thing.
Okay.
The first time the ladies
are coming to the criz-ib.
I know.
[laughing]
Are you ready?
- For real.
- I is ready.
[♪♪]
Oh, this is
such a pretty home.
[doorbell rings]
- Hey!
- What's up, Marlo?
You look so pretty!
You look so sexy.
This is so pretty.
Oh, thank you.
- Muah, muah.
- So good to see you.
- How are you doin'?
- Awesome.
[laughing]
- Let me get the door.
- Girl, I got 'em blushin'.
- He blushin'.
- Yeah.
Oh, I look cute.
What's up, girl?
And the Deuce
is here, too.
- Hello.
- Say, "Hi, Miss Kandi."
Oh, you don't know me yet.
I'm sorry.
Hello.
- Hi.
- So, you feelin' better?
As in not being in
the mountains with people?
As in not wanting to
kick us out no more.
I don't know.
Y'all definitely...
We're not gettin'
kicked out today, are we?
That happened.
That happened.
Monyetta is here.
- Hey!
- Monyetta is in the house.
- Yes, hi.
- Hi, girl.
I made it!
Welcome to my home.
I-I was like,
am I still in Georgia?
Ah, girl.
I should have booked a flight,
a helicopter, a train.
She is not in Atlanta.
You do know that, right?
We have our Sheree
gift pile.
- Okay.
- Looks like you might
have forgotten about.
Listen, you was there.
You saw what happened
in Blue Ridge.
- Sit down.
- Oh, I'm sorry.
- I didn't even notice you.
- Sit down!
Sheree is comin'
to get her puppy
and put her
on her leash, honey.
- So, I'm here in peace.
- Okay.
And I'm here to wish her
a happy birthday.
Okay.
I feel like
that's the present.
Drew is in the house.
- Hello.
- Hey! Yes, hair!
- Hi!
- How are you?
- Oh, you look cute.
- Thank you. So do you.
- Oh, hey.
- Hey, girl.
Hi, Monyetta.
Hi!
Hi, Marlo.
Hey, everybody.
- Hi. Hi, Kenya.
- Hello, hello.
Yes, you guys look great.
I'm going through
a tough time, right now,
with Michael and William.
I need nothin' but positive.
So, no matter what
you do, little Kenya,
you will not
spoil my vibe.
It's always been
really easy for me
to ignore Marlo because...
she's irrelevant.
- Hey, cutie.
- I'll give you a tour
- of the house, and we...
- Oh, I saw the, uh,
the railings, I'm like,
okay, what's going on here?
I love the neighborhood.
I mean, I had to pack
a small lunch to get here.
Girl.
And I love
the patterned rug.
Thank ya.
You have to get a real tree,
though, no fake trees.
No fake trees?
Kenya loves home decor.
How is the furniture
stuff comin' along?
Girl, don't get...
I don't know nothin'
- about no furniture.
- Yeah.
So, I would love
for her to look around
and kinda give me
some ideas,
and I always wanna
tell her how I feel about
her hanging up on me.
And then this is what I wanted
to talk to you about.
- Okay.
- So, I went with a darker wall,
but I don't know if the gray
is givin' the gray I want.
I feel like it's
kind of blue-ish.
I don't like the gray.
I think what you need
is more, like, grandeur,
- draperies here.
- Yeah,
- definitely drapes, yes.
- Get rid of the shutters
and the blinds.
I always just take
those right away.
- Okay.
- It's nice.
Before we go out, though,
before we go out to the girls,
- I wanted to...
- Yes, what?
- [laughing]
- You're not fittin'
to hang up on me
when you don't like
what I'm sayin'.
I'm gonna hang on you
any time I want...
You're not fit to do...
You're not fittin' to do that.
...if you're talkin'
some bullcrap, okay?
I wasn't talking bullcrap.
- Was I?
- You were.
But honestly, though,
if you don't like somethin',
just tell me.
Like, don't hang up on me.
We ain't playing that.
I wonder where San ya
and, uh, Kenya at.
- Yes.
- They've been gone a minute.
I needed some water.
I'm a little...
San ya!
Bring us some food if y'all
are gonna be gone this long.
Yeah.
Can I test out the bed?
- Get a little comfy?
- Of course, of course,
of course.
Listen, I'm gonna hang up
because I'm like,
no, that's not how
you're-you're supposed
to make somebody feel.
You know, 2021,
I was in a great place.
I was just trying to get
back to where I was
before I was married,
like not letting
people run over me,
and that's kinda like
what happened in my marriage.
- Yeah.
- I let so much stuff slide.
You let it slide, yeah.
And now, I'm just to
the point where it's like,
no, don't do that to me.
I feel like sometimes
when people...
Like, if you're
feeling a certain way,
then you receive stuff
differently.
San ya called Kenya
to talk about the trip.
Okay.
And it was like,
"Hey, I just wanna make sure
you is bringing somebody."
So, Kenya was like,
"Girl, I'm not
going through this wit' you,"
and hung up on her.
What? No.
A grown woman shouldn't
hang up on anyone.
It-it was just very
off-putting,
and your tone
was very condescending.
- Was it?
- Yes.
Okay, so, I just want to be
clear-clear-clear-clear-clear.
Goodbye.
The reason I brought it
back up was because
the first time I said it,
I didn't get a chance
to tell you,
you don't gotta bring somebody
you're having a, you know,
relationship with.
Bring your girlfriend.
I want to apologize to you
because I never want you
to feel like I am putting you
in a position
that you felt like you were in
when you were married
or anything like that.
That's not
the kinda friend I am.
- And I appreciate that.
- All right.
Yes, I appreciate that.
I know you wanna
be my friend.
I know you love me, girl.
I know you love me!
So, cut it out.
[laughing]
Go out there
and we're on
our best behavior tonight.
When am I not?
All right, ladies.
Sheree is here,
so I'm thinkin' we should
go by the door.
So, um, Rakeem,
I wanna make sure
we have some music on
when she walks in.
We're still working it out,
right now.
[groans]
We can do somethin' a
cappella.
If San ya can't host
a house party,
how are you gonna host
a whole vacation in Jamaica?
I'm a little concerned.
♪ Peaches and dreams ♪
[doorbell rings]
All right, guys,
let's just sing "Happy Birthday"
when she walks in.
That's the music.
Kandi, start singing
"Happy Birthday."
Lead, lead.
You ready? You ready?
- Hey, Marlo!
- Hi!

Happy birthday to me?

- Hey!
♪ Happy birthday ♪
I'm so shocked that San ya,
someone who I
just recently connected with,
put this party together for me.
She is definitely a ride or die

Sheree, you're
gonna go up first.
- Oh, I love that.
- Boom.
- We gotta... you gotta do it.
- Okay.
- She's fine today.
- So, wait, what do I do?
- I don't know how to do this.
- You just stand on there.
So, can we get
Sheree first on here?
Oh, how much time?
We've been having
issues with the battery.
Twenty minutes?
- Hey.
- Beef patties,
chicken on the left,
beef on the right...
Would y'all like some?
San ya, did you cook this,
or did your mom?
No, this was catered.
We didn't cook.
Oh, okay, okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah.
All right.
San ya, what is with
this dry catered food?
I need a whole tin of rum punch
to wash down this dry-ass food!
Sheree, yes, you go first.
Basically, you just, like,
hit your poses or whatever,
and the thing will
go around you.
Okay.
I want you to work it
'cause you're lookin' good.
You're lookin' like money.
[♪♪]
The fact that she does not
have white meat chicken,
no bartender, and a photo booth
that doesn't work...
Uh, maybe
we should eat first.
We're all right, for now.
- Come on.
- Okay.
- Let's go in here with...
- Yeah.
I mean, I guess it is
the thought that counts,
so I can give her
an A for effort.
We'll come back.
So, what you been doin'?
Girl, workin' on
damn She by Sheree.
I've been tunnel
vision focused.
I'm determined.
All right, ladies.
We're gonna get
some food goin'.
We have, um, jerk chicken,
and rice, and plantains.
Ooh, yummy.
As dry as
those tortillas were,
we might need to
make our own food, too.
Okay. Ahh!
[laughing]
Kenya Moore!
You got one more time, Kenya!
One more time in my house!
We need drinks.
That's what we need.
That's what we need!
We need drinks, girl! Yes!
This isn't how you throw
a party for your friends.
Where is the bartender?
Do we have a chef?
It's giving Party City
and a child's birthday party.
Is this Deuce's birthday?
[laughing]
It's a twist top.
I don't do twist tops.
[laughing]
So, wait, so, we have not
seen each other since...
Oh, the cabin, basically.
I had to ask Drew,
"Did you pack those bones
- to bring wit' you?"
- Absolutely, she did.
I stay on ready.
You wasn't ready
that day, boo.
Just know I'm always going to
express myself in my way.
You wasn't ready that day.
But when people
won't express themselves,
when they throw rocks
and hide their hands...
Who threw a rock
and hid their hand?
You did.
When people
won't express themselves,
when they throw rocks
and hide their hands, I'm just...
Who threw a rock
and hid their hand?
Yeah, you did.
I was addressing the-the dog
that was barking in my ear
that you had to
address me for you.
Oh, stop calling her a dog.
She did not address...
Let-let me say. Okay.
What I'm saying to you is,
you brought this person around.
- You brought the person around.
- Tomato, tomato...
I'm throwing tomatoes at you,
bitch.
What are you saying?
You're not makin' any sense.
I'm throwing tomatoes
at this bitch 'cause she whack.
I'm throwin' 'em at you.
You deserve 'em,
all the tomatoes.
I think Drew secretly
lives for me.
What are you saying?
You're not makin' any sense.
I'm saying shut up.
Let somebody talk.
This bitch is lookin' for
my attention.
It's your birthday, girl.
Stay cute.
Because we see
she's not gettin' it at home.
Listen, I'm not gonna stop
talking to Fat um
because she doesn't like
what Fat um said.
But it didn't stop there.
She-she proceeded to then
get a detective to run me
- and my husband's information.
- And that lead...
That brings me to say,
who are we talkin' to,
- right now?
- So, if we're in...
Hold on.
Are we talking to Danielle,
Andrew, uh, Tiffany?
- Who I am talkin' to, right now?
- I don't even know... so...
- Now she don't know.
- So, that's a problem!
Drew loves to fight.
Drew has a sign
on the side of the road.
Will fight for free.
Just tell me where.
[laughing]
Well, I got somethin' to say,
right now.
- Oh.
- Hello.
- Okay.
- Hello, talk.
So, Drew...
Let me get ready
to receive this.
Girl, get that
weave off my head.
It's good weave.
It's good weave.
- It's good... it's good weave.
- Oh, okay, okay.
If you guys sit back
and think,
every time we've had a sit-down,
she's arguing with somebody.
Oh.
Because you always feel like
you gotta make things about you.
This woman has
made it about me.
When I came to
Brooklyn's party...
About her... you guys,
she made it about her.
She said what she said
about my husband,
and I don't...
I don't know her.
'Cause your-your-your
assistant said that.
But maybe you don't remember.
No, you absolutely
never said that.
I mean,
as you are getting older,
maybe you just don't remember,
and that's fine, honey.
Bitch, old and cold.
Bitch, old and cold!
- Oh!
- And that's okay.
That's my mother... in'
story, bitch!
Old and cold.
You better hope
you look like this
when you get my age.
Drew is pretty,
but she better hope,
at Sheree's age,
she still looks good
because Sheree looks
damn amazing to be 60.
Oh, sh**!
Sheree gonna curse me out.
Lord Jesus.
You came real tough today,
honey.
- I love it, though.
- I'm always tough.
- I'm always tough.
- You ate your Wheaties, girl.
Had your Red Bull, honey.
Yes!
You better hope.
At the end of the day,
you don't find
nothin' wrong with it,
so it's cool.
I know where I stand.
We-we see where
each other is at,
and I am done with it.
I am done with it.
- We done with it!
- I am done with it.
All right.
Okay, let's move on.
Let's do the cake cutting
over here.
Drew.
I would love to hear you sing
"Happy Birthday" to Sheree.
Well, no,
we're not doin' that.
I'm-I'm not using
my voice to sing.
- Drew is... Drew, Drew...
- Never mind.
She ain't gotta sing.
She don't gotta sing.
She wanna be petty.
It's my birthday.
- She ain't gotta sing.
- Be the bigger person. Sing.
- ♪ Happy birthday ♪
- Oh, she's singin'.
- Oh, oh, this is to me?
- Good.

- Oh!
Wait. What?

[applause]
We all know that Drew
doesn't how to apologize.
So, I am going to assume
this is her apology.
Thank you, Drew.
- This cake is really good.
- It's so good.
All right, ladies.
You can guys can
go get on the couch.
I'll be right back.
- All right.
- Have a seat.
Have a seat, ladies!
- Oh, gosh.
- All right, ladies.
Class is officially
in session.
We got rules for Jamaica.
[laughing]
Today's lesson,
Sanya's rules for Jamaica.
- All right?
- Alrighty.
After Blue Ridge,
we're not going down
that track, again, okay?
So, this is how we're gonna have
a successful trip.
[laughing]
All right.
Rule number one,
I want everybody to have
water friendly hair.
Rule number two,
Jamaica, no problem,
which means no stand-offs!
She should have set a rule
on not having
this dry-ass catered food here.
That should a been a rule.
Let's move to
rule number three,
absolutely no props.
[laughing]
I can't promise that one.
I can't promise that one.
I'm an actress and this is
the way I express myself.
I love a good prop
when I am making a scene.
All right. Rule number four,
no weed, no jail.
So, y'all might think
weed is legal in Jamaica.
Weed is not legal
in Jamaica, okay?
- Oh, it's not?
- No, it's not.
- Since when?
- It's not legal in Jamaica.
If y'all go to jail,
I'm leaving y'all there.
Got it.
Rule number five,
iFit invited me,
like I told you guys,
on a trip to Jamaica
to film for my series.
- Okay.
- So, all I'm saying is,
I really need you
on your best behavior.
This is a work trip for me.
IFit is footing the bill.
Ain't nobody fightin'
in the driveway
or throwin' doggy treats
in my hometown, okay?
All right.
Everybody gonna be bringing
their best behavior
and a smile on this trip?
- Ya, mon.
- Hey, mon.
All: Boom, boom, boom,
boom, boom, boom, boom!
Hey!
Coming up, on
"The Real Housewives of Atlanta"...
- Hey!
- We made it, Jamaica!
Boom, boom,
boom, boom, boom!
This is so nice!
- Oh! Oh! Oh!
- Go, Drew!
For some reason,
I went to the lobby.
- You weren't there.
- Another time.
We can talk
whenever we want.
All right. Hold on.
Don't (BLEEP) with my wife.
Ooh!
Your girl is
back on the market.
You like older women?
[laughing]
You do not think
that it's weird
that you sent your nephews back
and made them feel, like, away?
Girl, no.
Bitch, you ain't nobody!
You're only known
in Atlanta, baby!
Bitch, I'm worldwide!
Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.
"The Real Housewives of Atlanta".
IFit has invited
all of you to Jamaica!
[cheers and applause]
This is a couples trip.
You can bring your boo.
- You gotta get a boo, Marlo.
- You bri... you bring no date.
You better get
one of them boys.
You have the biggest brand
out of this group
that's not a brand.
If you just did a small line,
you could use that money
- to get to the next level.
- Mm-hmm.
Kenya, no one in this group
will take me away
from Michael and William.
Oh, 'cause you
gave 'em away.
Bitch, you're trash.
He hopped
the community gate.
Then he came, and he sat
on our front porch.
- Oh, my God!
- God, that's scary.
- What the (BLEEP) is wrong wit' you?
- Arf-arf.
I'm not happy.
So, tonight,
I just called for cars.
I just want
everyone to leave.
Thanks for nothing.
I don't think I've ever
been kicked off a trip before.
This is a first for me.
[♪♪]
I ain't never
skipped a beat or a bag.
K A N D I
I keep you
on the edges of your seat.

I always had the juice,
but now I got the peach.

You're always
living in the moment

Season 14 Episode 12
Episode Title: "Trust (Planning) Issues"
Aired on: July 31, 2022.
[♪♪]
Lord, help me
with these boys.
What this cup say?
"The Lord is my strength."
Yes, Exodus.
You are my strength, Lord.
For real, you really are.
You know,
I was a junior deacon.
I also heard that she managed
the medical practice,
and then she got fired.
- You did?
- You fired me.
Why?
'Cause I fell asleep
on one of dad's exam tables.
I really don't remember
firing you.
You did.
[♪♪]
So, how is the music
stuff coming?
It's going pretty good.
When I get to
hear some stuff?
I'll let you hear some.
I have a clean version.
- I wanna hear both versions.
- Uh-huh.
You know, I'm working
on She by Sheree,
and I am going to have
some unisex sweatshirt,
- hoodie, jogger.
- All right.
- I may need you to model.
- All right. When? When? When?
I'll let you know when.
I had to bring on a consultant
to help me with the sketches
and things like that,
and she's actually
gonna help me
see the entire thing
through.
I realize that I'm going to make
She by Sheree a success.
I have hired a designer,
and we are in the process
of putting my thoughts
onto paper.
I'm making a lotta changes.
You see it on paper.
You're like, ooh,
I would do this different.
I would do that different.
That's where I am, right now.
This is, like,
do or die for me.
I can't keep talking
about She by Sheree
and then not doing it.
If it does not happen
this time,
She by Sheree
is gonna have a funeral.
[♪♪]
You ready, babe?
A little trailer.
[laughing]
Let me try one
of these wings out
- and make sure they're okay.
- Oh, my God.
[laughing]
- What up? What up?
- Hello, hello.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
- We got a cake?
- We do.
Happy Birthday.
That looks good.
Mm-hmm.
But who all did you invite?
- I invited just our cousins.
- Mm-hmm.
I invited Drew 'cause,
you know, she has a son
- that he likes to play with.
- Yeah.
And I told Kenya,
so that'll be good.
- You gonna hold it?
- Mm-hmm.
You can't drop it.
Ace is turning
six years old.
It always sucks
when your birthday
lands in the middle
of the week.
You still wanna do somethin',
so I'm having a smaller party
for him today,
but I'm gonna have
a very big party for him
this weekend.
Oh, we got more people!
- How ya doin'?
- Hey!
- What's up, y'all?
- We at the party.
- Come on in.
- Where the birthday boy?
These are our cous...
Oh, yeah,
we-we haven't brought him
over yet.
- Okay.
- These are our cousins.
Hi, cousins.
Let me go get
my two little ones,
and then we will
get this thing started.
You're being so shy.
Surprise!
Happy birthday!
[cheers and applause]
I'm so excited
because it's my birthday!
[cheers and applause]
Yay!
We got another one!
- Hey!
- Hey, girl.
Hey, Ace, birthday boy.
Hi, cutie.
- Muah.
- You look pretty.
- Wow, you do, too.
- Thank you.
Come on, everybody.
Let's get around the table.
Blaze!
Too far away.
- Make your wish.
- Blow it hard.
Make your wish.
Hey!
[cheers and applause]
I was gonna take the kids
into the gaming truck.
Y'all wanna
go check it out?
- Uh-huh.
- Come on, Ace.
All right.
Here we go. Ooh!
Ace has gotten into
video games,
so I thought it would be
a fun idea
to get a gaming truck.
I want every birthday
for my kids
to be all the way turnt.
Where should
the birthday boy sit?
Ace, you wanna play
Mario Kart?
Now, what you gonna play?
- Um, Fortnite.
- Yes!
[♪♪]
- Knock-knock.
- Hi.
Oh, yes, lime green!
- Hey, how are you?
- Welcome to Le'Archive.
- Baby, you look so pretty.
- [indistinct].
You're gettin' ready
for Jamaica.
Yes.
I'll get you
some rum punch.
Okay.
Let me look around
before San ya
gets lookin', okay?
I could see you in this
Louis Vuitton swimsuit.
- I see!
- Here you go, Sheree.
- Really cute, I like this.
- Sheree, so cute.
So, wait,
what you been doin'?
How you feel in?
How you... I mean...
Oh, my God, girl.
Michael told Tye that, uh,
he really miss being home.
He said,
"But I'm gonna be honest.
William does nothing
but lay on the bed
and play Roblox all day.
He doesn't take a shower.
He doesn't brush his teeth."
Oh, Lord.
I don't know what to do.
Should I shorten
the 30 days
because are they gettin'
structure there,
or are they on vacation?
So, I called my sister.
I'm like, "Why is he allowed
to be on the computer all day
- and play Roblox?"
- Mm-hmm.
That's gonna make him not
even wanna come back home.
Right.
And she's like,
"No, I'm taking it from him.
I'm gonna take it."
I'm like, okay, whatever.
That Versace hat, Sheree,
I could see you wearing that
with this.
I'm trying to get
that credit card.
I-I... hey.
[screaming]
Hey, party people!
Look, rum punch...
Rum punch.
Yes, rum punch!
We're in Jamaica.
- [laughing]
- How are you, baby?
You finally make it
to Le'Archive.
I did.
Oh, my goodness.
We have your drink
right over there.
Cheers to Jamaica.
Rum punch!
Rum punch! Rum punch!
- Boom, boom, boom!
- Boom, boom, boom!
Let's sit down, eat, talk.
We got a lot to catch up on.
Yes.
What's going on
with the security?
- What happened with the guy?
- Right, right.
So, we spoke to
the police department,
and, basically,
they set up
to just do tours
of the community.
You should just get
an off-duty police officer
- that sits at the entrance.
- Right.
- That what Cardi B has.
- Hmm, that's a good idea.
She lives about a mile
down the street from me.
What y'all talkin' about?
Yeah, they was talkin'
about 24-hour security.
Y'all payin'
for 24-hour security?
Well, I live behind
a armed gate 'cause I...
A armed gate?
What do you mean?
Yeah, like, a security
guard stay there.
- Oh, that sits at the front.
- Mm-hmm.
It gives me a sense
of comfort.
- Yeah.
- Yeah, see, that sh** is dope.
- I love Roswell.
- Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
I like being in this area.
For me, it's just
convenient to everything.
To get to that airport
every time you need to go
and produce a play
on Broadway...
What's been going on
with the play?
Lord, I'm devastated.
We had to shut the play down.
Why?
Well, that new wave
of omicron,
it hit the cast.
[gasps]
Right. And so, basically,
we had to shut the show down
for at least ten days.
That could bankrupt
the-the show.
It was gonna
bankrupt the show,
so we had to basically
just shut it down.
Wow.
We did everything
we could, and it's like,
you feel like you failed.
Yeah, you can't
control COVID.
It's just been tough
all around.
It was just crazy because
so many people had great things
to say about the show.
Then when this happened,
it just... it took us down!
To me,
um, I am
a Black woman.
You know, I come from
a single parent home.
I did not have money
handed to me,
but people
just look at me
as everything
that I've done.
It's like, oh, everything
just happens for her.
It doesn't just happen.
These are things
that I have to work for.
But my whole life, I feel like
I want to make it happen
because I know it's not
just for me.
It was more of...
trying to even
the playing field
for African Americans
who are creators
and want to be on Broadway.
I'm sorry. I didn't...
I didn't even hear about it.
Like, I've been feeling
really blah.
Uh-huh.
Sheree wore her bright colors
to brighten me up.
- Yes.
- I say I needed that.
I mean, last time we saw
each other, it was horrible.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, my God.
Especially for you.
I felt so bad for you.
Come on.
I'm goin' wit' you.
Let's go in the car.
The four of us
are gonna go.
And then I gotta beg
someone to go with me.
- Come on, Marlo. Marlo!
- I wanted to get away.
I didn't want this drama.
So far, me and Kenya
have gotten along great.
I just, at the end
of the day, felt like,
if you're there,
if you're coming,
- why cause so much opposition?
- She drove there by herself.
Like, you know what I mean?
Like, she was gonna ruin
- the trip for everybody.
- For everyone.
And I was disappointed
in Kandi, again.
Kandi has shown who she is.
- That's who she rocks with.
- Yeah.
But who's right, is right.
Who's wrong, is wrong.
True.
- Cheers. Hydration in 2022.
- Cheers. I know.
[laughing]
Hydration.
I'm trying to limit
the liquor intake.
- Ut-oh.
- No, I'm telling you, girl.
Because of all that
happened in Blue Ridge.
Girl, it was
a very bipolar trip.
I just think Marlo is...
Got a bone,
like, a hard on for me.
So, you need a bone.
Is that what you're saying?
- [laughing]
- Uh, maybe.
The bones was funny.
Here, get it. Fetch.
- [laughing]
- Okay, don't play with me.
Play with that.
You are literally
the bone carrier.
I am...
[laughing]
- Move over, Sheree.
- Literally.
Move over,
Sheree and Kandi!
I hope Jamaica is not
gonna be like Blue Ridge.
- Oh, chile.
- 'Cause we can't have
that drama
that we had in Blue Ridge
in Jamaica.
So, I felt like,
when we were in New York,
the trip was a little bit
off-balance.
We had some people
who had couples,
some people who didn't.
So, for the Jamaica trip,
you can bring a friend,
or you can bring a new guy.
Ross and I
are going together,
and so I want everybody
to have a plus one.
So, at least
if we're doing activities
that require two people,
you got somebody.
But I was just
thinking, though,
there is three of you
that are single. Kenya...
So, let me call the other
single lady and tell her.
[phone ringing]
Oh, wait a minute.
Sanya's calling.
- Oh, for real?
- Oh.
Hello.
Oh, look at this hair.
You look pretty.
What are you doin'?
I am actually sitting here
with my girlfriends.
I would love to invite
all of you
to come to my house
on Saturday.
Just kind of like a prelude
to our Jamaica trip.
I really want this
to be a couples trip.
I want you
to bring somebody.
- She told us
it was a couples trip.
- She did. Yeah.
Okay,
so, I just want to be clear
that the Jamaica trip
is a couples trip,
um, because I felt like,
you know, you...
Goodbye.
Girl, I'm tired of this.
- Listen.
- Bye, girl.
Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.
Okay, so, I just want
to be clear
that the Jamaica trip
is a couples trip.
I'm tired of this.
- Listen, girl.
- Bye, girl.
Listen.
What the (BLEEP)?
She's pushing
the couples trip situation.
You're not gonna
do that to me, okay?
What the hell?
Not cool.
- She feels she's queen bee.
- Why would she do that?
'Cause she knows
she ain't got nobody to bring.
My thing is,
if we know that Kenya
- is going through a divorce...
- Right.
Like, why are we forcing
the point of her having
- to bring somebody on a...
- Exactly.
You can F
all the way off.
San ya is not
a dumb girl.
She knows that I'm not
dating anyone, right now.
No, don't single me out.
I don't have to go.
I thought she was being
really insensitive.
I'm sure I'll hang up on her,
again, if she tried it.
I don't need it.
I gotta talk
to her sidebar.
That sh** ain't cool.
- That ain't cool.
- Please do it.
Just kill her with
kindness like I do.
- [laughing]
- Don't even lie.
That-that makes
so much sense.
That is not
working, Marlo.
[♪♪]
- Hi, Dr. Tart.
- Hey, Marlo, Dr. Tart.
- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
- Come on back.
- Likewise.
Thank you so much
for seeing me.
Hey, of course,
of course.
Oh, my God, I never thought
I would be seeing the real...
It's a couch.
Like, the couch.
I'll just lay down and...
[laughing]
Well, you have
to be comfortable, right?
We're talking about
important things.
I can't do it.
Well, Marlo,
I'm a Christian psychologist,
so I give believers the option
for me to open up in prayer,
- if that doesn't make you...
- I will love that.
I was referred
to Dr. Tart by Sheree
because I don't know what
my parenting is doing.
Am I doing the right thing?
Am I making
the right decisions?
It's so hard for me
because I never planned
on having children because
I didn't wanna be a mother
like my mother.
- I need that, right now.
- All right. All right.
Hello, God. We thank you for
bringing in Marlo today, Lord.
We ask and pray that you
facilitate change, Lord.
We believe in you.
We thank you, Lord. Amen.
Amen.
Dr. Tart, I'm such
a nervous wreck, right now.
Here you go.
Here you go.
I'm such a nervous wreck.
What's going on?
God.
[sobbing]
Take your time.
What's wrong?
So, I have custody
of my nephews.
Their mom
has mental issues.
She's incarcerated,
right now.
So, two and a half,
three years ago,
I got a call from my nephews,
and they was like,
"Auntie, can you
come get us?"
So, I went and got them.
And then it's
like months went on,
and months went on,
and they're still here.
- Okay.
- But I freaked out,
and I told Michael
and William to get out.
I called my little sister.
I'm like, "You know what?
- "I can't do it anymore."
- What happened?
I was frustrated
because they just take
everything for granted.
I'm like, "William, make sure
you make up your bed."
He's like, "Oh,
I made it up, auntie."
I go upstairs.
The bed is not made.
And Mike got mad at me
when I went to New York.
He punched the wall.
Okay.
There's no structure,
and it makes me feel like sh**
I'm never consistent
with the punishment.
In these three years,
they're a part of my life.
They're like my best friends.
I wanna watch
a movie with them.
I wanna be goofy with them.
But I want them still
to respect me and know
when I say somethin',
I mean business.
I can say this
as a parent.
It's not fun
all the time.
I'll tell you boys
don't listen to talk.
And then I yell
like my mom.
You don't have to yell.
And that doesn't
do any good everyone says.
You don't have to yell.
You can be strong
versus yell strong.
But am I too strong?
Am I being mean to them?
You wanna be consistent
in the message
that you're sending them.
You wanna help
them to be good.
So, I wanna equip you
with some things
that is actually gonna
help you and them.
One, family meetings
each week.
We're gonna talk about
how things are going.
Let's start with
the positives.
Let's start with some things
that need to change.
Second thing, you wanna
give 'em a schedule.
I would like for you all
to pull out your homework
at 7 o'clock.
Third thing
is quality time.
Every Tuesday
is taco Tuesdays,
- if I'm not working.
- Okay, okay.
And it's like I have
to make sure that happens more.
F-first of all, can you
give yourself credit?
You, of the other options,
are the best chance
that they have.
Even though
I miss 'em so much,
and I feel I do
need a break,
is it gonna be bad if I let
them stay there 30 days?
I don't think you're wrong
because we can't discount
what would a happened
if you let 'em stay.
What we wanna
be on guard for,
is making 'em not feel
like they were abandoned.
That's what
I'm worried about.
I'm gonna let 'em
come back.
But part of me, I'm not
gonna lie, I'm afraid.
I'm afraid of them...
Somethin' happening,
and it's like
I failed them.
So, once you're consistent,
they're gonna follow.
I want structure
and consistency for me
and for them, and I want
these boys to be super men.
I really do.
Now, you're saying order
has to be restored.
When you come back,
it can't be business as usual.
Yeah.
Well, I have to say coming
here tonight has helped.
Well, I'm glad.
How often do
I need to come see you?
- And...
- Can I bring the boys to you?
- You can.
- Oh, that...
Give me a hug
on that one.
Would it better if you
see us together or separate?
- As a family.
- Okay, well, next time,
when I let them
back in the house,
- we'll be together, okay?
- Okay, sounds good.
Thank you so much
for seeing me.
- Thank you.
- I totally appreciate it.
Comin' up next...
I'm done wit' y'all.
[♪♪]
Where is Kaela?
Riley?
- All these toys.
- You know, it's so funny.
It's like we don't hardly
have all of our kids
in the house
at the same time.
Thank you, buddy.
You got
the little Nerf gun.
You almost took
my eye out with that thing.
[laughing]
Can you believe
we got four kids?
Hi.
- Four kids.
- Oh, my gosh.
- What's up, K-Boogie?
- Nothin'. I'm tired.
- Here's little R and B. Oww.
- Hello.
So, how are y'all, uh,
New Yorkers doing
here in Atlanta?
[laughing]
- Bored.
- Bored?
Are you doin' good
in school?
Yeah.
Obviously adjusting after
everything was online
the first year,
but we're on a upward slope.
That's what
I'm talkin' about,
- upward slope.
- Yeah.
Riley and Kaela are
both in New York City
living their best life.
Riley is a sophomore
now at NYU,
and Kaela is in New York
working in TV production.
She's doing really good
for herself,
and I'm happy
and proud of her.
So, what type of liquor
y'all drinkin'?
No, we're sober
over here.
- Whatever.
- Oh, God,
you ain't gotta
lie, Riley.
- [laughing]
- All right. I got it.
We're sober.
Anyway, we are finally
going to get our trust done.
Mm-hmm.
We've been talkin' about it
for a very long time.
Really, you can have
three different trusts.
If you have certain desires,
put 'em in that trust.
You have desires.
We'll put those assets
in those trusts.
And then you'll have a trust
in the middle that...
With your shared ideas.
We both had properties
and different things
before we got married,
and then we got things
that we've accumulated
since we've been married.
And, you know, we-we
will be having to figure out
how those things
get divided.
So, like, think about
the Jersey crib.
I will leave
that to Kaela.
- You know what I mean?
- I feel like that's fair.
But my thing is, as far as
finances from the estate
that we have together,
I don't want it to be
where you get a big lump sum,
and they might be, oh,
I got $5 million,
and you look up,
you make a few bad decisions,
and that five is $130,000.
So, I would rather
give out sums
in different stages
of your life.
So, instead
of giving it all to you,
it's spread out
and that you're able
to have financial wealth
throughout your whole life.
- That's...
- What's that face, Riley?
- I would not do that.
- No.
People say it
all the time.
I mean, I still think
I would prefer
to get it earlier
because, like,
what if I wanna
invest in a business?
Like, I'd wanna do,
like, my businesses
starting in,
like, my 20s.
But that's part
of the trust.
Have you done
the due diligence to understand
that this business
operates this way?
Do you have a plan?
I mean, realistically,
we keep talking about,
Lord forbid if somethin'
happened to the both of us,
but what if somethin'
happened to one of us?
Mm-hmm.
And then the other one
is still here.
See, and that's where
we differ, because...
That's where
we differ.
You look at me like,
"Oh, you're gonna be strict.
"You ain't gonna
give 'em nothin'.
You're gonna do"...
I'm like that's not true.
That's what you
give off. Yeah.
I mean, yeah,
it's definitely different.
And not even that,
but I think you guys
treat your kids' lifestyles
very different.
- Look at this view.
- Sixteen...
You got a high rise
apartment in the city.
Kaela said she's
going to New York.
Wait, what?
Only thing I did tell her,
at least if you are gonna go,
you should work.
Stack some money.
So, personally,
I'd be in a bit of a situation.
- No, that's not...
- Yes, I would.
You would not.
That's not true.
- I would be.
- And you know what?
- You know what? You...
- I, definitely,
I don't think
you would agree
to give her the apartments
and stuff that I would agree to.
That's not true.
That's not true.
I think it's also
how much I spend.
Like, I don't think you would
allow me to be part
of the decision as much
as I am with my mom.
You're saying, he would say,
"Yeah, well, this is budget,
"so you got to figure out
how to make it work."
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
That's not true.
Do you think
he would do that?
Well, daddy...
[laughing]
You think...
So, you think...
We all think that,
not just me.
Time out. No.
My dream is to teach you
to be self-efficient.
- And you know what?
- I will do that.
- I want that, too.
- Time out. Time out.
- Time out. Time out.
- I'll give them everything.
Can I... can I say
what I'm saying?
Go ahead.
For you to
be independent.
If you get
my money, it's a bonus.
- Literally.
- Life lessons.
If your parents are not
here to teach you...
And that's
a perfect word.
You always wanna
teach a lesson.
Everything is like, "Oh,
she needs to learn a lesson."
- [sighs]
- Y'all...
And plus, you have
a mom instinct.
He thinks, to me, he thinks
business-wise all the time.
It's never daddy
and business.
It's business
most of the time.
Am I gonna have
a tipping allowance?
Stop.
You don't know how
to show affection.
I'm trying to make
you tough, kid.
I expect a lot out of Kaela,
and I'm proud of her.
She's doing her thing.
She's got
her own apartment.
She pay her own bills.
That's part of
that tough love.
One day, I'm gonna be gone,
and I need to know
that you can
handle yourself.
I don't think you
and I always think the same.
So, that's why
I don't know if I trust you
to make all
the decisions for me.
That's bad.
How is it
really bad, babe?
It's really bad
that you think that,
if somethin'
happened to you,
that I wouldn't make sure
Riley was right.
I think it's... ed up.
It just shows how
disengaged we are.
Y'all done wore me out.
I'm done wit' y'all.
Y'all so disrespectful.
Get that paperwork right.
I don't want no smoke.
Yes, Todd will do what
he thinks needs to be done,
but will it be
what I think?
We have a lot of
things together.
So, how do we
manage that?
Ooh.
Them ungrateful kids.
Oh, my God!
I think his
feelings are hurt.
Oh, yeah, his feelings
is probably hurt.
I mean, I was just
telling the truth.
Comin' up next...
Your tone was
very condescending.
Was it?
That's not how
you're-you're supposed to
♪ La la la la la la ♪
♪ la la la la ♪
♪ look ♪
Please give me more.
You wanna do it now?
[phone dings]
I actually didn't even know
it was Sheree's birthday
until two days ago.
And so, I decided,
since we were all
getting together anyway,
why not celebrate her
and make it
a special moment
for her, too?
Yes.

Hi. Welcome to
Melanated Fabrics.
Hi. Awesome.
My name is Brittany.
Welcome in.
- Hi. How are you?
- Hi. How are you?
- This is Mimi.
- Nice to meet you.
- You, too.
- Yes.
Do you know, uh, what
you're interested in?
Yes. I'm, uh,
revamping a line.
- Nice.
- Yeah.
Okay, so, are you interested
in knits, or wovens,
- fabrics that stretch?
- Uh...
definitely fabrics
that stretch,
- uh, knits.
- Okay.
I'm not just gonna
put anything out there.
So, right now, I am
still sourcing fabrics.
I'm still sourcing
all the notions.
These, right here,
are woven fabrics,
so they wouldn't work if you're
looking for, like, a knit.
I am really trying
to make sure
I have everything in place.
Are you gonna have a show?
I want-I want
a huge show.
- A huge show.
- I love it.
I want a huge show.
That's exciting.
Is it menswear? Women swear?
- Is it both? Everything?
- It's...
Well, it started out
as women's.
But I've gotten so many
requests from men.
- Mm-hmm.
- Oh, okay.
Who are like, "Oh,
I want a jogger, too."
Yeah.
- With men...
- Yes.
There will be a-a VPL.
- You know what that is?
- Uh-uh.
You know what it is?
Never heard of it.
A visual print line.
- Like, they like that.
- Oh, like, a visual print line.
- A visual print line.
- Oh, they like to...
give you a little peek,
a little sneak.
Yeah, just a little...
A little sneak peek.
- [laughing]
- Oh.
I mean, hey, both men
and women like to see
a little somethin' dangling
every now and then.
So, I'm gonna give
the people what they want.
These are actually new in.
These will be fantastic
for dresses, some velvets,
which will be fantastic
if you wanna glam up the jogger.
Yeah, yes.
This is a Liverpool knit.
This could be actually
good for joggers.
It has a great weight.
My birthday is approaching,
and I made a promise
to myself
that this year
I am going to make
She by Sheree a reality.
Do you have more stock?
We have some really
good wholesalers
that we're in
close contact with.
- Okay.
- We're happy to share those.
So, they're wholesalers.
They can get you
all the stock that you need.
Okay.
After dealing with
the Tyrone situation,
for once, I do not
feel bad about
putting Sheree first.
- Let's do the gray.
- Which color did you like?
I like the gray.
I like the nude.
Okay.
We're able to get
more of this, if needed.
These, yeah,
these are reorderable.
- Mm-hmm.
- Okay.
Here are the samples here.
I have them cut.
Oh, that is amazing.
- Thank you so much.
- Yes, absolutely.
We're always here to help.
Okay.
[♪♪]
What up, babe?
How you feelin'?
I'm feelin' good,
like a million dollars.
[laughing]
You still feeling good after
meeting with our daughters?
Oh, I don't
(BLEEP) with them.
What?
Why would you say that?
They're very entitled.
It didn't feel good.
You wasn't over there takin'
stuff personal, were you?
Oh, it's always personal.
We are a family,
and it should be a space
where they can feel
comfortable telling you
- how they really feel.
- Oh, no, they can,
but I... I'm not supposed
to take it any kind of way?
Like, you didn't trust that
if somethin' happened to you,
and Riley was here with me,
that you didn't trust
that I would
take care of her
or make sure she was good.
- And...
- Um, there's a difference.
I think you would
take care of her.
- Uh-huh.
- But it's obvious
that I'm a little
bit more free
with giving out
the coins than you are.
Let's just put it
that way.
Probably I am gonna
be more structured.
So, when you do say
you don't trust
that I would do
what you would do...
- Mm-hmm.
- I probably wouldn't.
So, whatever you got,
please leave it for them.
- Sure.
- And put it in writing.
Make sure your thing
is detailed out
to where they ain't even
gotta ask me a question.
Yeah, I mean,
I definitely will.
The estate planning
has been stressful,
but the two of us
can always somehow
come together
and see eye to eye.
Also, we need to just
buckle down and get it done.
Well, moving forward,
we gotta figure out
how to continue building
this whole empire situation.
What you talkin' about?
Well, you know,
I have been really
down in the dumps
about the whole play.
That was, like,
a really tough blow,
but the crazy thing is,
one of the other producers
reached out,
asking would I possibly
be interested
in being a producer
on another Broadway show.
But the other thing...
And it's probably
gonna be a dope show.
I did talk to Nick
about it,
and he was like, "I don't know
if you should do it because
'Thoughts of a Colored Man'
closed early,
and this show could be
in jeopardy
of the same thing."
I mean, that's
the scary thing.
- Yeah.
- I'm thinking about it.
I'm not gonna just
jump on it because...
I think you jump on it.
Everybody wants
to be so instant.
Like, your first show,
you get a Tony.
Like, come on.
Like, why can't you have
two shows that close,
and you go for
the third ones?
Yeah.
I think it just shows
your dedication
to wantin' to be
in that community.
Oh, wow, she came back.
I respect her.
Well...
I love how you
push me, babe.
I don't know.
That's how I feel, man.
I guess I think
a little differently.
Yeah.
We bump heads a lot,
but one thing about Todd,
he knows how
to motivate me
and to keep me
goin', honey.
Give me a hug.
Y'all wear me out.
[groans, sighs]
I have the perfect
partner in life.
Do that play
and see what happens.
It'll just be a few dollars
the kids won't get.
[laughing]
But it'll be somethin'
you wanted to do.
Comin' up next...
As you are getting older,
maybe you just
don't remember.
Bitch, you better hope
you look like this
when you get my age.
[♪♪]
All right.
Party people, [indistinct].
All right, so,
what we got, Rakeem?
What we got?
What's happening?
We got these
happy birthday balloons
- we need to hang up somewhere.
- Oh, nice.
I got the streamers.
- Okay.
- Bottles, the whole setup.
- Okay, cool.
- So, uh, photo booth
actually is landing
in, like, 30 seconds.
- Perfect!
- Yeah.
This is exciting.
Ooh, smells good.
So, we'll do the cake, gifts,
everything right there.
- Sharon!
- Hey, guys.
- [indistinct], cutie.
- What's up?
Um, so, okay, we're
gonna hand it to Rakeem.
So, maybe you want
to hold that side,
so it don't pop
onto the thing.
Okay.
The first time the ladies
are coming to the criz-ib.
I know.
[laughing]
Are you ready?
- For real.
- I is ready.
[♪♪]
Oh, this is
such a pretty home.
[doorbell rings]
- Hey!
- What's up, Marlo?
You look so pretty!
You look so sexy.
This is so pretty.
Oh, thank you.
- Muah, muah.
- So good to see you.
- How are you doin'?
- Awesome.
[laughing]
- Let me get the door.
- Girl, I got 'em blushin'.
- He blushin'.
- Yeah.
Oh, I look cute.
What's up, girl?
And the Deuce
is here, too.
- Hello.
- Say, "Hi, Miss Kandi."
Oh, you don't know me yet.
I'm sorry.
Hello.
- Hi.
- So, you feelin' better?
As in not being in
the mountains with people?
As in not wanting to
kick us out no more.
I don't know.
Y'all definitely...
We're not gettin'
kicked out today, are we?
That happened.
That happened.
Monyetta is here.
- Hey!
- Monyetta is in the house.
- Yes, hi.
- Hi, girl.
I made it!
Welcome to my home.
I-I was like,
am I still in Georgia?
Ah, girl.
I should have booked a flight,
a helicopter, a train.
She is not in Atlanta.
You do know that, right?
We have our Sheree
gift pile.
- Okay.
- Looks like you might
have forgotten about.
Listen, you was there.
You saw what happened
in Blue Ridge.
- Sit down.
- Oh, I'm sorry.
- I didn't even notice you.
- Sit down!
Sheree is comin'
to get her puppy
and put her
on her leash, honey.
- So, I'm here in peace.
- Okay.
And I'm here to wish her
a happy birthday.
Okay.
I feel like
that's the present.
Drew is in the house.
- Hello.
- Hey! Yes, hair!
- Hi!
- How are you?
- Oh, you look cute.
- Thank you. So do you.
- Oh, hey.
- Hey, girl.
Hi, Monyetta.
Hi!
Hi, Marlo.
Hey, everybody.
- Hi. Hi, Kenya.
- Hello, hello.
Yes, you guys look great.
I'm going through
a tough time, right now,
with Michael and William.
I need nothin' but positive.
So, no matter what
you do, little Kenya,
you will not
spoil my vibe.
It's always been
really easy for me
to ignore Marlo because...
she's irrelevant.
- Hey, cutie.
- I'll give you a tour
- of the house, and we...
- Oh, I saw the, uh,
the railings, I'm like,
okay, what's going on here?
I love the neighborhood.
I mean, I had to pack
a small lunch to get here.
Girl.
And I love
the patterned rug.
Thank ya.
You have to get a real tree,
though, no fake trees.
No fake trees?
Kenya loves home decor.
How is the furniture
stuff comin' along?
Girl, don't get...
I don't know nothin'
- about no furniture.
- Yeah.
So, I would love
for her to look around
and kinda give me
some ideas,
and I always wanna
tell her how I feel about
her hanging up on me.
And then this is what I wanted
to talk to you about.
- Okay.
- So, I went with a darker wall,
but I don't know if the gray
is givin' the gray I want.
I feel like it's
kind of blue-ish.
I don't like the gray.
I think what you need
is more, like, grandeur,
- draperies here.
- Yeah,
- definitely drapes, yes.
- Get rid of the shutters
and the blinds.
I always just take
those right away.
- Okay.
- It's nice.
Before we go out, though,
before we go out to the girls,
- I wanted to...
- Yes, what?
- [laughing]
- You're not fittin'
to hang up on me
when you don't like
what I'm sayin'.
I'm gonna hang on you
any time I want...
You're not fit to do...
You're not fittin' to do that.
...if you're talkin'
some bullcrap, okay?
I wasn't talking bullcrap.
- Was I?
- You were.
But honestly, though,
if you don't like somethin',
just tell me.
Like, don't hang up on me.
We ain't playing that.
I wonder where San ya
and, uh, Kenya at.
- Yes.
- They've been gone a minute.
I needed some water.
I'm a little...
San ya!
Bring us some food if y'all
are gonna be gone this long.
Yeah.
Can I test out the bed?
- Get a little comfy?
- Of course, of course,
of course.
Listen, I'm gonna hang up
because I'm like,
no, that's not how
you're-you're supposed
to make somebody feel.
You know, 2021,
I was in a great place.
I was just trying to get
back to where I was
before I was married,
like not letting
people run over me,
and that's kinda like
what happened in my marriage.
- Yeah.
- I let so much stuff slide.
You let it slide, yeah.
And now, I'm just to
the point where it's like,
no, don't do that to me.
I feel like sometimes
when people...
Like, if you're
feeling a certain way,
then you receive stuff
differently.
San ya called Kenya
to talk about the trip.
Okay.
And it was like,
"Hey, I just wanna make sure
you is bringing somebody."
So, Kenya was like,
"Girl, I'm not
going through this wit' you,"
and hung up on her.
What? No.
A grown woman shouldn't
hang up on anyone.
It-it was just very
off-putting,
and your tone
was very condescending.
- Was it?
- Yes.
Okay, so, I just want to be
clear-clear-clear-clear-clear.
Goodbye.
The reason I brought it
back up was because
the first time I said it,
I didn't get a chance
to tell you,
you don't gotta bring somebody
you're having a, you know,
relationship with.
Bring your girlfriend.
I want to apologize to you
because I never want you
to feel like I am putting you
in a position
that you felt like you were in
when you were married
or anything like that.
That's not
the kinda friend I am.
- And I appreciate that.
- All right.
Yes, I appreciate that.
I know you wanna
be my friend.
I know you love me, girl.
I know you love me!
So, cut it out.
[laughing]
Go out there
and we're on
our best behavior tonight.
When am I not?
All right, ladies.
Sheree is here,
so I'm thinkin' we should
go by the door.
So, um, Rakeem,
I wanna make sure
we have some music on
when she walks in.
We're still working it out,
right now.
[groans]
We can do somethin' a
cappella.
If San ya can't host
a house party,
how are you gonna host
a whole vacation in Jamaica?
I'm a little concerned.
♪ Peaches and dreams ♪
[doorbell rings]
All right, guys,
let's just sing "Happy Birthday"
when she walks in.
That's the music.
Kandi, start singing
"Happy Birthday."
Lead, lead.
You ready? You ready?
- Hey, Marlo!
- Hi!

- Hey!
♪ Happy birthday ♪
I'm so shocked that San ya,
someone who I
just recently connected with,
put this party together for me.
She is definitely a ride or die

Sheree, you're
gonna go up first.
- Oh, I love that.
- Boom.
- We gotta... you gotta do it.
- Okay.
- She's fine today.
- So, wait, what do I do?
- I don't know how to do this.
- You just stand on there.
So, can we get
Sheree first on here?
Oh, how much time?
We've been having
issues with the battery.
Twenty minutes?
- Hey.
- Beef patties,
chicken on the left,
beef on the right...
Would y'all like some?
San ya, did you cook this,
or did your mom?
No, this was catered.
We didn't cook.
Oh, okay, okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah.
All right.
San ya, what is with
this dry catered food?
I need a whole tin of rum punch
to wash down this dry-ass food!
Sheree, yes, you go first.
Basically, you just, like,
hit your poses or whatever,
and the thing will
go around you.
Okay.
I want you to work it
'cause you're lookin' good.
You're lookin' like money.
[♪♪]
The fact that she does not
have white meat chicken,
no bartender, and a photo booth
that doesn't work...
Uh, maybe
we should eat first.
We're all right, for now.
- Come on.
- Okay.
- Let's go in here with...
- Yeah.
I mean, I guess it is
the thought that counts,
so I can give her
an A for effort.
We'll come back.
So, what you been doin'?
Girl, workin' on
damn She by Sheree.
I've been tunnel
vision focused.
I'm determined.
All right, ladies.
We're gonna get
some food goin'.
We have, um, jerk chicken,
and rice, and plantains.
Ooh, yummy.
As dry as
those tortillas were,
we might need to
make our own food, too.
Okay. Ahh!
[laughing]
Kenya Moore!
You got one more time, Kenya!
One more time in my house!
We need drinks.
That's what we need.
That's what we need!
We need drinks, girl! Yes!
This isn't how you throw
a party for your friends.
Where is the bartender?
Do we have a chef?
It's giving Party City
and a child's birthday party.
Is this Deuce's birthday?
[laughing]
It's a twist top.
I don't do twist tops.
[laughing]
So, wait, so, we have not
seen each other since...
Oh, the cabin, basically.
I had to ask Drew,
"Did you pack those bones
- to bring wit' you?"
- Absolutely, she did.
I stay on ready.
You wasn't ready
that day, boo.
Just know I'm always going to
express myself in my way.
You wasn't ready that day.
But when people
won't express themselves,
when they throw rocks
and hide their hands...
Who threw a rock
and hid their hand?
You did.
When people
won't express themselves,
when they throw rocks
and hide their hands, I'm just...
Who threw a rock
and hid their hand?
Yeah, you did.
I was addressing the-the dog
that was barking in my ear
that you had to
address me for you.
Oh, stop calling her a dog.
She did not address...
Let-let me say. Okay.
What I'm saying to you is,
you brought this person around.
- You brought the person around.
- Tomato, tomato...
I'm throwing tomatoes at you,
bitch.
What are you saying?
You're not makin' any sense.
I'm throwing tomatoes
at this bitch 'cause she whack.
I'm throwin' 'em at you.
You deserve 'em,
all the tomatoes.
I think Drew secretly
lives for me.
What are you saying?
You're not makin' any sense.
I'm saying shut up.
Let somebody talk.
This bitch is lookin' for
my attention.
It's your birthday, girl.
Stay cute.
Because we see
she's not gettin' it at home.
Listen, I'm not gonna stop
talking to Fat um
because she doesn't like
what Fat um said.
But it didn't stop there.
She-she proceeded to then
get a detective to run me
- and my husband's information.
- And that lead...
That brings me to say,
who are we talkin' to,
- right now?
- So, if we're in...
Hold on.
Are we talking to Danielle,
Andrew, uh, Tiffany?
- Who I am talkin' to, right now?
- I don't even know... so...
- Now she don't know.
- So, that's a problem!
Drew loves to fight.
Drew has a sign
on the side of the road.
Will fight for free.
Just tell me where.
[laughing]
Well, I got somethin' to say,
right now.
- Oh.
- Hello.
- Okay.
- Hello, talk.
So, Drew...
Let me get ready
to receive this.
Girl, get that
weave off my head.
It's good weave.
It's good weave.
- It's good... it's good weave.
- Oh, okay, okay.
If you guys sit back
and think,
every time we've had a sit-down,
she's arguing with somebody.
Oh.
Because you always feel like
you gotta make things about you.
This woman has
made it about me.
When I came to
Brooklyn's party...
About her... you guys,
she made it about her.
She said what she said
about my husband,
and I don't...
I don't know her.
'Cause your-your-your
assistant said that.
But maybe you don't remember.
No, you absolutely
never said that.
I mean,
as you are getting older,
maybe you just don't remember,
and that's fine, honey.
Bitch, old and cold.
Bitch, old and cold!
- Oh!
- And that's okay.
That's my mother... in'
story, bitch!
Old and cold.
You better hope
you look like this
when you get my age.
Drew is pretty,
but she better hope,
at Sheree's age,
she still looks good
because Sheree looks
damn amazing to be 60.
Oh, sh**!
Sheree gonna curse me out.
Lord Jesus.
You came real tough today,
honey.
- I love it, though.
- I'm always tough.
- I'm always tough.
- You ate your Wheaties, girl.
Had your Red Bull, honey.
Yes!
You better hope.
At the end of the day,
you don't find
nothin' wrong with it,
so it's cool.
I know where I stand.
We-we see where
each other is at,
and I am done with it.
I am done with it.
- We done with it!
- I am done with it.
All right.
Okay, let's move on.
Let's do the cake cutting
over here.
Drew.
I would love to hear you sing
"Happy Birthday" to Sheree.
Well, no,
we're not doin' that.
I'm-I'm not using
my voice to sing.
- Drew is... Drew, Drew...
- Never mind.
She ain't gotta sing.
She don't gotta sing.
She wanna be petty.
It's my birthday.
- She ain't gotta sing.
- Be the bigger person. Sing.
- ♪ Happy birthday ♪
- Oh, she's singin'.
- Oh, oh, this is to me?

We all know that Drew
doesn't how to apologize.
So, I am going to assume
this is her apology.
Thank you, Drew.
- This cake is really good.
- It's so good.
All right, ladies.
You can guys can
go get on the couch.
I'll be right back.
- All right.
- Have a seat.
Have a seat, ladies!
- Oh, gosh.
- All right, ladies.
Class is officially
in session.
We got rules for Jamaica.
[laughing]
Today's lesson,
Sanya's rules for Jamaica.
- All right?
- Alrighty.
After Blue Ridge,
we're not going down
that track, again, okay?
So, this is how we're gonna have
a successful trip.
[laughing]
All right.
Rule number one,
I want everybody to have
water friendly hair.
Rule number two,
Jamaica, no problem,
which means no stand-offs!
She should have set a rule
on not having
this dry-ass catered food here.
That should a been a rule.
Let's move to
rule number three,
absolutely no props.
[laughing]
I can't promise that one.
I can't promise that one.
I'm an actress and this is
the way I express myself.
I love a good prop
when I am making a scene.
All right. Rule number four,
no weed, no jail.
So, y'all might think
weed is legal in Jamaica.
Weed is not legal
in Jamaica, okay?
- Oh, it's not?
- No, it's not.
- Since when?
- It's not legal in Jamaica.
If y'all go to jail,
I'm leaving y'all there.
Got it.
Rule number five,
iFit invited me,
like I told you guys,
on a trip to Jamaica
to film for my series.
- Okay.
- So, all I'm saying is,
I really need you
on your best behavior.
This is a work trip for me.
IFit is footing the bill.
Ain't nobody fightin'
in the driveway
or throwin' doggy treats
in my hometown, okay?
All right.
Everybody gonna be bringing
their best behavior
and a smile on this trip?
- Ya, mon.
- Hey, mon.
All: Boom, boom, boom,
boom, boom, boom, boom!
Hey!
Coming up, on
"The Real Housewives of Atlanta"...
- Hey!
- We made it, Jamaica!
Boom, boom,
boom, boom, boom!
This is so nice!
- Oh! Oh! Oh!
- Go, Drew!
For some reason,
I went to the lobby.
- You weren't there.
- Another time.
We can talk
whenever we want.
All right. Hold on.
Don't (BLEEP) with my wife.
Ooh!
Your girl is
back on the market.
You like older women?
[laughing]
You do not think
that it's weird
that you sent your nephews back
and made them feel, like, away?
Girl, no.
Bitch, you ain't nobody!
You're only known
in Atlanta, baby!
Bitch, I'm worldwide!
Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.
