..90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?
Were you there? Yes. I was squeezing her hand.
She looks like her dad, but she's precious.
You don't have that place to tell me
what I should do with my relationship.
(SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
Pedro's mom should butt out of our marriage.
(SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
Russ's mom arrives soon,
and I felt that I needed to be honest with my mom about Patty.
(SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
I was hoping to start looking for plane tickets to come to Morocco.
Jay and I have filed for divorce.
He's leaving my area and our marriage is over.
I never wanna see him again.
And...
A couple of days after Jay left,
I got really sick. I ended up going to the hospital.
It was really hard to be alone.
What are you gonna do when you get there?
Going back to Morocco means I get to see the love of my life
and leave all our issues behind us.
Well, you know, you could always rely on the store
to fund your stay over there. There is no store.
Right now, Pao doesn't want you holding the baby.
I did fly across half the United States to be here.
Pao was creating all these rules that are unnecessary.
I want to hold the baby.
Just reality in the face, man.
Another mouth to feed. What's your plan?
Stop being rude to me, I'm tired.
I can only take so much. I'm going to divorce you!
(BLEEP)
Did you marry me for love?
Or did you marry me so that you could come to America
and work and send money back?
Don't make (BLEEP) threats at me like that!
I don't know if I can even trust my own husband.
(WEEPS)
Larissa's freaking out right now
because she and my mother had a huge fight
and my mother kicked her out of the car.
And I came home from work,
and she just went off on me
cos I wouldn't go upstairs and yell at my mother or whatever.
Stop talking to me!
Self-centred little... (BLEEP)!
Do you feel better?
Oh, my God.
Do you feel happy right now?
That's ridiculous.
Do you stand by mine?
Why don't you respect me?
You've done nothing but insult me since I got home.
I wanna stand by Larissa's side, but she does things and says things,
I'm like, "Why the (BLEEP) am I married to her?"
It's getting worse and it's becoming more often
and more vile and more personal.
I'm sorry you had a bad day with her,
but why am I the villain in your story?
Larissa...
Do whatever you want, Larissa. Stop threatening me, stop being rude to me, I'm tired.
(CHUCKLING)
OK.
At this point, she's done nothing but cause chaos and destruction
in the very short time I've know her.
I've spent thousands upon thousands of dollars on this woman.
I've bailed her out twice.
I paid for her lawyer. I've done everything for her.
And she keeps on fighting and fighting.
And I can only take so much.
I don't care any more. I'm done. OK.
I don't like you. OK.
I'm tired of you. OK.
I'm gonna divorce you!
This won't end well for either of us.
She looks just like you, baby. Oh?
I feel like I'm looking at you.
Where's my phone? Do you have it?
This is what I made.
You wanna put it inside? Yeah, can you undo the seatbelt for one second?
This is a really bad car seat.
Since the brains over here wanted to order the car seat last-minute,
it didn't get delivered on time
and we're stuck using the piece of junk car seat from the hospital.
(BABY CRYING)
Oh, I know, it's not comfortable.
I'm, like, stressing out right now.
I'm overly exhausted. I just gave birth.
And we're putting our precious little baby
in this piece of crap car seat, it doesn't even have a hood
to cover her head from the sun.
It just tells you, like, how much of a piece of crap it is.
Gosh.
I'm trying to put my seatbelt on, I'm not a fricking magician.
You're OK.
The stupid car seat.
(BABY CRYING) Oh, no, no, no.
Baby, don't go so fast, please.
It's not about driving better.
(BABY CRYING) Aw, OK.
That speed bump scared her, please slow down.
You're not... It's not just us, baby.
I'm very nervous, I'm not gonna lie.
I am just thinking, like,
this is a new, fragile human
that you're responsible for.
I just know how hard-headed Andrei can be
and I'm hoping that he will change now that the baby is born.
We made it.
Oh!
What did he say?
Andrei's dad is leaving soon,
and I know that Andrei is gonna miss him.
Since he moved to the US, it's been nothing but my family the entire time,
so I'm happy that he can be here to share this moment with us.
(SHUSHING)
Hola.
I got really sick and I ended up going to the hospital.
I'm just appreciative that someone was there
to help me get through a really bad time.
Mm? X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:0
ASHLEY: A couple of days after Jay left, I got really sick
and, uh, I ended up going to the hospital.
And, when I got to the hospital, I found out that I was in stage three kidney failure.
I have been having issues with my kidneys for quite some time now
because I have Lupus.
With Lupus, a major cause for a flare up is stress,
and lately, it's been nothing but chaos.
He said, "I was giving her a tattoo.
She asked if I wanted to (BLEEP),
"and it just happened." That's what he said.
What do you have to say for yourself? Are you (BLEEP) proud?
What the (BLEEP) do you mean, "Whose fault is it?"
Is it my (BLEEP) fault? Get your (BLEEP) ass out!
Are you ready to file the divorce complaint today?
I'm no longer interested in being married to him.
This relationship is over. We will be never be together again.
I've already filed for divorce. It's already out there.
I let a beautiful and strong woman walk out of my life forever.
I'm not going to go back. Like, there's no option of me going back with Jay ever again.
I was in the hospital a little less than a week.
And now, they've scheduled a surgery in a couple of weeks.
Hey. Hey.
You all right? Mm-hm.
There you go.
How are you feeling?
Like crap. Hm?
Like crap.
I guess one of my friends had called Jay
to let him know that I was really sick.
I'm not in a good place,
and so he flew all the way back here from Florida.
Things with Jay and I weren't good.
The last I saw him, I had just kicked him out.
And, um, it was kind of surprising
to see him walk through the door at the hospital.
I was still really mad at Jay,
but I was somewhat still happy to see him,
and happy to not be alone.
I cleaned up downstairs for you.
I threw some of your clothes in the dryer.
Washed you dishes up and everything for you.
Thank you. You don't have to worry about that.
Thank you.
I feel like shit.
I'm just tired.
Doctor told me you were gonna be tired. You need to rest a lot.
Ashley dropped me off at the hotel and I spent the night there.
In the morning, one my friends took me to the airport, and...
I was just there for a few days before I found out Ashley was sick.
Knowing me and the person who I am,
I cannot have her in the hospital by herself and I'm not there,
so, I flew right back to her.
That is what you do when you love someone.
You know, when I was in Florida...
..I honestly thought most of it was my fault.
I know you have Lupus and everything but, like, stress and everything.
I mean, part of it could have been because of everything.
Like, this arguing, it's not healthy for a normal couple.
And, like, for me, physically, it's really bad.
I'm really sorry for everything that I have done.
And I wish I could go back and just, you know, make it right
and just start our life all over again,
but I know I can't, so, I'll just have to work from here.
Go on.
I just wanna help you out as much as I can
cos I know you're gonna be on bed rest and everything, so...
And then I honestly want us to work things out
if there's a possibility that that can happen...
(SNIFFLES)
I'm happy you're here.
It just doesn't really mean that things are fixed though.
RUSS: I'm gonna be that sort of gentleman.
(BOTH LAUGHING)
I'm happy to have my mom coming to visit.
My mom will be here for ten days. She's excited to meet Axel,
and I need someone on my side.
I need someone that supports me, and is recognising my efforts
because things have been difficult with Pao since my son was born.
Well, let's head home. Let's go.
So, you've had a long day. Long day.
I had kind of a long day, but I think Pao's had a longer one.
(CHUCKLES) Welcome to parenthood.
Yeah, I wanna help out.
But it is kind of getting to the point that she won't let me help out.
So, she's been very overbearing and overprotective.
Pao really just doesn't trust anyone at this point.
And she's taking it all on herself which is stressing herself out even more.
And in response, she's creating all these rules
that are unnecessary.
My mom is not gonna be thrilled at all, to hear Pao not wanting her to hold the baby.
She got to the point of... She doesn't want anyone holding the baby.
And she doesn't even want her mom holding the baby.
Am I gonna get to hold it?
Yeah, that is another thing, so...
Right now, Pao just wants to be the only one holding the baby.
And she doesn't want you holding the baby, she just wants you just helping around the house.
She does the same thing with her mom.
Well, I'm gonna help as much as I can, but I do know that I want to hold the baby.
Not that I'm gonna take away from what she's doing,
but I'd like to hold him. I... I completely agree,
and I did talk with Pao about that. I did fly across half the United States to be here.
Right, and I... That's what I've explained and...
I came a long way to not be able to hold this baby.
As a mom, I can see why she's protective,
but I also think she needs to come to realise that I'm family,
and that I should be able to hold Axel.
I'm really just trying to keep the peace and not say anything.
I just do what I can, but it is frustrating.
PAOLA: I'm a little worried about my mom meeting Patty,
because I told my mom our relationship isn't the best,
but I'm really glad that Patty has come here to help.
So, I just hope that this is going to go well.
Hi. Hi.
Hola. Hola.
(BOTH CHUCKLING)
I've got to give you a hug. (KISSES)
How are you? I'm good. How about you?
Good.
(GASPS) You are handsome. Yeah.
Do you hear the noises he's making? (GURGLING) He does that. Yes.
I wanted you to meet him with his eyes open.
He open it for a little bit just to suck the boob,
and he found the boob, so, he's like... He's happy.
Yes. (CHUCKLING) So how long does he usually eat?
Every two hours. That's normal.
It's stressful. Yeah. It is. Yes, it is.
(BABY COOS) PATTY: I got to see Axel for the first time.
It was just wonderful to see.
My urges, when I first saw him, was, you know, I did wanna see,
but he was busy, he was doing what babies need to do,
so I'll just have to be patient and wait.
Are you sleepy? A bit tired? A little bit.
Yeah, we'll get some more time with the baby tomorrow.
Well, I'm excited to see him and I'm excited to see you.
Yeah, I'm glad you're here. And to meet your mom. Yeah.
Get some rest. Yeah. I love you. I love you, too. Good night.
Good night. Good night.
Look, May. Found a ticket!
Going back to Morocco means I get to see the love of my life
and finally get married.
Guess what? I just bought our tickets.
Well, I just know that, you know, how expensive it is to raise kids, and I know that if...
It's time for her to stop turning to me,
and strictly, just turn to you.
I'm ready to cut the cord and just say, "Sink or swim." X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:0
May, you want to go to Morocco?
Mm-hm?
Do you remember going on an aeroplane?
Do you remember? Mm-hm.
For the past few weeks, me and May
have been staying with my mom rent-free
so I could save enough money to go back to Morocco.
Because Azan and I decided that we're gonna get married this time.
This distance is hard.
Are you ready to get married?
What is it like?
Going back to Morocco means I get to see the love of my life
and spent time with him and leave all our issues behind us
and, finally, get married.
(RINGING)
Hey, babe.
Guess what?
I just bought our tickets.
Really? Maya, look, tell Daddy.
Hey, May! You got tickets?
Did you hear her? Isn't that's so funny?
I know.
I'm really excited, I leave, like, so soon.
I can't wait. Mm-hm.
Really?
Are you ready to get married?
OK, I'll get all the papers
and we'll make sure we get everything gets done, OK?
So, I'll let you go, OK?
I love you.
Bye.
May, did you bring Grandma over here?
Yeah? What did you tell her?
I not thrilled that Nicole is heading back to Morocco
because I'm just not sure
if she's prepared.
Really prepared, about money and getting married,
and May deserves some structure.
You've managed to probably use up most of your money, that you had in reserve, for these tickets.
What are you going to do when you get there?
Do you even have a plan
for how you guys are gonna support yourselves?
Don't worry.
Well, you know, you could always rely on the store to fund your stay over there.
Nicole and Azan told me they were going to try to secure their future
and start a business.
So, instead of doing the wedding,
we've decided to try an open a beauty shop.
Oh, my Gosh. (SIGHS)
So, basically everything Nicole saved up,
that's gonna all be in the shop.
You know, I'll like to see that it's for real.
Mom, there's a shop. It is happening. Where's the pictures?
I swear I'm not lying to you. There's no reason to lie to you.
I'm not even sure what happened with the store.
I don't know because
she just doesn't wanna... she doesn't wanna talk about it.
Any businesses, it is not easy to keep it running.
It requires so much of your time and effort.
Well, um...
..there is no store.
What you're telling me is, you've been lying to me this whole time?
Well, I mean, if you gotta put that way.
There's no shop. It was an idea,
cos we're trying to find a way to make a living.
And it just didn't work out.
I just wanted her to get off my back about why were getting married.
We weren't getting married just because...
It was a lot of stress from both families,
a lot of pressure, and it's just a lot more than I expected.
You're telling me that you gave him $6,000 to start this store.
(SIGHS)
We were looking at a store and we did have pictures... Mm-hm.
..of a store. Of a store? Yeah.
Was this because of him? No. Did he make you do this?
He didn't make me do it. I wouldn't do it just because he asked me to.
Sorry, I don't know... You know how I feel about lying.
I lied, but, you guys are really pushy.
And when you're there in person,
he was very nervous around you.
He's got my daughter and my grandbaby.
Of course, I wanna make sure you guys are taken care of. I mean...
I'm supposed to constantly worry about whether or not
you have enough money for food?
He's been doing some fishing stuff and then...
Fishing? What kind of fishing? Like, I don't know.
Like, on boats and stuffs, I guess.
You didn't even ask him? I didn't ask the details.
It's just a job.
He's been really tired lately, so I just didn't push it.
Ah, I guess my biggest concerns with Azan right now is just that
in Morocco, he lied to me about a business
and, um, that's little unsettling.
You know, Azan shows his true colours over and over again.
Nicole's life right now is pretty much in a tailspin,
because of their relationship and not knowing what's gonna happen next.
Not knowing, you know, what part of her future's gonna play out,
and which part is gonna crash and burn.
Mom, we'll be fine.
I'd still like to hear this plan on how you're gonna be "fine".
No matter what my family throws at me,
negative about Azan, I don't really care.
Right now, there's not a future that doesn't involve Azan
because I love him and I want a family with him.
(CHUCKLES)
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. (CRYING)
I can't believe you're here.
Oh, my God.
(CHUCKLES)
Yeah.
I know.
We had sex.
(LAUGHS)
Yeah. Really? OK... Oh, my God.
Look! Look!
Oh, he loves you!
(GIGGLES)
Look. Wooo!
I love you too. We'll see you soon, hon.
Yeah.
I can't tell if she pooped or not. You smell her butt. (LAUGHS)
Sniff it.
Eleanor is just a few days old
and I am still getting used to motherhood.
She is a lot more needy than I thought,
just cos she's a brand-new baby.
So, I'm not getting much sleep at all,
but she's my little, sweet girl.
(DOORBELL RINGS)
(DOG BARKS)
(SIGHS)
Hey, how's it going, man? How are you?
Congratulations. Thanks.
Hey, Dada.
I invited my dad over to meet the baby because he couldn't make it to the hospital.
Things with Andrei and my dad are still tense and awkward
and I'm hoping Eleanor will somehow bring the family together in a way
and create some kind of peace.
How precious! Look at her hair.
Uh-oh, she looks like Daddy.
Yep. That could be a problem.
(LAUGHS) She's beautiful.
She's absolutely gorgeous, beautiful, precious angel,
but the baby looks exactly like Andrei,
mainly because of the dark hair.
Well, I could see traces of Libby in there, somewhere.
Well, I'm glad that I came over today, finally.
Got to see the place, got to see the baby. Mm-hm.
Mm-hm. Thanks for finally inviting me over.
(CHUCKLES)
This is not only his first time meeting Eleanor,
but also being in our home.
This is the house that he gave us a deposit for it
and he has never been here.
I think that it's because him and Andrei don't have, like, the best relationship.
Maybe he doesn't feel comfortable just coming over.
It's nice. It's nice to see what I helped paid for.
Well, you can come over whenever you want. Thank you and I will.
You don't need an invitation.
Wanna hold her a second? Sure.
She has a stinky diaper though, so... Uh-oh.
Oh, look how beautiful. (CHUCKLES)
Has he, uh, done the changing of the diapers and...
No, he was saying, he was like, "Babe, I don't I'm gonna change any diapers."
I'm, like, that's not gonna happen. I was joking.
This is a dual effort, man. You know what I mean?
Absolutely.
Taking care of my baby is pretty much her division.
She's the woman in charge of house,
like, I don't get involved in this kind of stuff.
Now, I'm gonna change her diaper.
Well, she's absolutely gorgeous, sweetie.
And I'm so glad that you...
..everything worked out.
She's healthy and you're healthy.
Well, you guys, enjoy. OK, sweetie. She's absolutely beautiful.
(DOOR SQUEAKS)
(DOOR CLOSES) So dude, again, congratulations.
Thank you. Your daughter's beautiful. Mm-hm.
But just reality in the face, man.
Another mouth to feed, somebody to take care of.
What's-What's your plan?
You got some irons in the fire? Mm-hm.
What have you got going? What do you...?
Yeah, but when you're not doing your part and she comes to me...
Well, show me you're doing your part.
You're telling me, you got
irons in the fire, I mean, like, what's your job?
He thinks that, all of a sudden, his phone's gonna start ringing
and people are gonna be like, "Hey, Andrei, you want a job?
You wanna work?" But it doesn't work like that.
Libby is going to be on maternity leave for the next two to three months.
You know, that's gonna be hard.
She's not gonna be making her commissions and her bonuses
that she normally gets.
That's gonna put a little pinch on their finances.
So, all the more reason for Andrei to say,
"OK, you know, this was my wake-up call.
Now, time to get out and hit the bricks."
Well, I just know how expensive it is to raise kids.
And I know that if...
Yeah. She's gonna turn to me if there is a need.
And all I'm saying is that
it's time for her to stop turning to me
and strictly just turn to you.
You're married. You have a kid.
It's time for her to rely 100% on you.
I have offered to keep the money in the family,
and hire Andrei,
but he turned me down.
So, I'm done helping them out.
Hit the bricks and get busy.
(LAUGHS)
Now, Andre's a prideful guy.
You know, and he wants me to step back,
and he wants pay the bills on his own. Fine.
I'm ready to cut the cord and just say, "Sink or swim." X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:0
Pedro and I are headed back to Atlanta today.
Things between Pedro and I have really improved
since he agreed to come home with me.
But, before we leave, Pedro wants to say goodbye to his family
and I'm worried because, last night,
I met up with Pedro's mom and sister, and it went terribly.
(SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE) Yeah, I know.
I'm a liberated woman, I'm not gonna let him take the control
of this entire relationship, I'm sorry.
(SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
I'm tired of Pedro's mom and sister
and I'm just ready to be back in America.
How do you feel about heading to America?
Well, you're gonna come back.
I really don't think that I should say goodbye to your mom and sister.
It may be a better idea for you to say goodbye by yourself.
(SIGHS DEEPLY)
(SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
Ah. Good bye.
Mm-hm.
OK.
Bye.
Why?
Saying that the past two weeks have been a rollercoaster ride is an understatement.
I don't know how you go from loving someone
to filing for divorce the next day to, you know, getting sick
and then, a couple of days later, now you're back together.
I don't know. It's a lot.
But Jay is still here because, I guess...
..I'm not well and he's here helping me
and it feels good right now, at the moment to have him here.
Hi. Hey. Hello. How are you?
I'm well, how are you? Good. Good to see you.
This is Jay. Hey. Hi. Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you. So...
I'm surprised to see the two of you together.
Ashley asked me to meet again.
And I was quite surprised to see Jay was actually with her.
It's, uh, I don't represent two parties.
I've made it clear with Ashley that I can only represent her.
So, I was surprised that he would be with her, cos I couldn't give him legal advice.
So, is this about the service, or what's going on?
Um...
I think I made a decision, a little quickly.
Yeah, I guess, basically, I wanna see about
withdrawing the divorce, if that's possible.
Hm. Yeah.
Jay and I didn't fight at all.
Not while I was in the hospital, or while I was home recovering.
He was definitely very hands-on, very helpful.
So, I guess I wasn't really thinking about the past,
and I was just appreciative that someone was there to help me
get through a really bad time.
It just makes me not wanna give up.
I think we wanna work on things.
So, I just didn't know what my options were.
As we discussed when we met,
you know, we can always withdraw the complaint.
It's a pretty simple paperwork, that we can do that.
You do lose your filing fees, and the cost
and things associated with the filing of the divorce complaint,
but we can absolutely withdraw all it, if that's what you're sure you wanna do.
(SOFTLY) Yeah.
OK.
Yeah. OK.
I definitely have concerns withdrawing the divorce with Jay,
as we haven't had time to really work on anything.
But, because I never filed his adjustment of status,
and because I filed for a divorce,
there's the possibility of him being deported.
I already have enough stress
and I don't need ICE coming to my house trying to deport him,
so it's kind of a situation.
If I want to try and make my marriage work,
then I have to withdraw the divorce.
You think, like, immigration will see that we filed for a divorce?
Is that something that they can...
There's always this possibility, just because it's still out there,
so it's still gonna be a record with the courthouse.
We definitely have to file for his adjustment of status,
so that's one of the main reasons also why I'm here.
Cos I need to withdraw the divorce,
before I can file for his adjustment of status. OK.
It's a little concerning that part of her reason is, to withdraw the papers,
is the potential of him losing immigration status.
That's certainly not a reason, you know, to maintain a relationship.
I did sense that it was a little bit of a quick move on her part.
I don't know if she's necessarily had time to breathe and think about everything.
All right, so, um, I'm just getting ready to, uh,
file the withdrawal. (TYPING)
You're totally OK with this?
Yeah. OK.
I'm definitely happy to be back here.
I'm definitely happy that, you know, Ash gave me a second chance.
A third chance.
And, you know,
it's just up to me not to mess it up again.
So, this is the paperwork. It just confirms that,
when the divorce complaint was actually filed.
OK. So, I can just sign this and submit it to the court,
and, um, that will withdraw the complaint.
(CHUCKLES)
So, again we just have to wait for the court to accept it.
I'll get an e-mail and confirm with you that it's been accepted.
OK. And you guys can move forward with your lives. All right.
Hopefully, everything will work out going forward.
Yeah. I can't say I'm 100% sure that I'm making the right decision.
But I love him, and...
..I'm going to try everything I can to make this marriage work.
Thank you very much again for everything.
I hope you're feeling better. Thank you.
You're welcome. Nice to meet you.
I don't know what the future holds for Jay and I
but I'm not ready at this point
for our story to be over. X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:0
Look how cute I look. Aw!
Oh, he's looking cute. Yeah. (BABY COUGHS)
My mom arrived last night
and I'm excited to have my mom meet my son.
I want my mom to take full advantage of the time she has with him.
But, my biggest concern is
how she doesn't want anyone holding Axel.
And I'm a little nervous with my mom and Paola's mom,
getting to know each other and making sure
that there's no stress within the household.
I would give you a hug, but I've the baby, Patty.
You guys thirsty? Yeah, I am. I'm always thirsty.
(SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
Yeah. Last night you were not able to see the baby.
You are handsome. Yes, you are.
(EXCLAIMS) Yes, you are.
Oh, my God! Yes, you are.
Look at you. Did he give her a smile?
Yeah. A big one, like, a nice to meet you.
He's actually staring at her.
So, do I get to hold him?
You wanna be held?
I know that she really want to hold Axel.
To be honest I haven't let anyone besides Russ to hold him.
But I know that it will mean a lot for Russ, and I'm gonna try.
Yeah, I know like, you heard that
I didn't want anyone to be holding the baby.
Mothers can be protective. Yeah.
I feel like I've been over-protective with the baby.
But this is your grandson. That's right.
You know, it's your blood. You wanna go with Grammy?
Come to Grammy.
Come to Grammy. Here you go.
I got it. (BABY COOING) I know.
Yes. There you are.
Oh, I love holding this baby. Well, look at that.
There you are.
(SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
I haven't even let my mom hold the baby. We'll share.
We'll share.
(SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
It's actually really nice to see you both there.
Like, I see this and having my mom in here is a such a big deal,
because I didn't have anyone from my family on my wedding or...
(SNIFFLES) Yes.
Now, tell me again, what do they call your mom...grand mom.
(SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
Grammy. Paola's mom, she's a delight.
I really wish I knew Spanish,
because I think we could... we'd be a team, let me tell you.
I can share, do you want a turn?
(SOFTLY) There you go. (CHUCKLES)
(SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
My mom and Russ's mom are actually getting along.
I'm so glad because I was kind of worried
so it makes me feel really happy.
(SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
Baby, hold him.
He's really hyperactive.
Hot? Mm-hm. (CHUCKLING)
(THUDDING) Shit, Russ.
I'm doing it by myself here. (BABY COOING)
Well, imagine there are single fathers.
How do you gonna do when I leave the baby by yourself?
I'm not gonna have a sink full of dirty dishes.
Of course there's gonna be a pot banging around. That's your problem.
You get so defensive when I tell you something.
I just got scared. You're holding the baby,
I'm gonna get scared if I hear something like that.
And I never said, you're doing something wrong.
But he's fine, like, I'm used to, like, "Is everything OK?"
Not automatically, "Oh, it's your fault."
You don't need to snap at me like that.
I just said, I'm doing this by myself.
Can you understand why that noise happened?
I wish you were to talk to me like that,
before you answering me in that strong way.
Like I said, it gets defensive because I hear you snap.
He's holding the baby and of course I'm always...
I'm protecting my baby - But stop - ..if it were to be you or my mom or anybody.
It's his baby as well and so he is going to protect that baby.
When I see Russ and Paola fighting, like, back in Oklahoma City,
it still concerns me that they haven't
really gotten to the root issue.
The greatest gift they can give each other is to love each other, and to show Axel that.
To they need to be aware of that, you know, we're moulding a life.
They have got to get their stuff together.
I really don't feel that you're understanding. I do understand.
I don't think you understand me in my perspective.
(SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
This is you guys, this is what we see all the time and that's why we worry.
You two cannot be fighting like this, especially, with him.
I feel like, there are times that the baby brings us closer together,
but then there are times that the baby is tearing us apart.
We're both totally exhausted,
and it's not helping the situation whatsoever.
It's not just Russ, it's you too.
It's...both of you changing. Yeah.
Cos you feed off of each other. (SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
Mm-hm.
Today is the day that Andrei's dad leaves Florida
and goes back to Moldova, and it's really bittersweet.
I know you will miss him.
For what?
What's gonna be our budget?
15?
Do we have money for that?
I mean, I can't help but just, like, think about money.
I'm not saying that we shouldn't.
I'm just thinking about money.
And I want our conversation to be realistic.
It's a lot.
I understand Andrei's sense of urgency
to start planning our wedding in Moldova.
But currently Andrei is still doing
just random handyman jobs here and there.
And my dad is going to stop helping us financially.
So, to be honest, I have no earthly idea
where Andrei thinks he's gonna get $15,000 for our wedding in Moldova.
(SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
Whatever, but, uh...
It's good that he liked it, you know.
OK, thank you.
(SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
We're going. Leaving? I'll take you to the airport.
(SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
I'm really sad because this was a really special time for us.
My family has been a huge part of our lives,
and they've been through all of our milestones together.
And it's not really fair to Andrei,
for him to miss out on all his family time with his family.
So, I know that this wedding in Moldova is so important to him
and...I hope that we can figure it out financially.
(BOTH CONVERSE IN OWN LANGUAGE)
(INDISTINCT PA ANNOUNCEMENT)
We've been back in Atlanta for a few days,
and Pedro has returned to his same ways.
When I come home he's always playing his video games,
and sometimes he doesn't even say, "Hi."
I feel like, he's there but he's not present in our relationship.
Baby?
We still need to talk about some things
that happened in the Dominican Republic.
I just want to know where we're at.
I know we're here physically,
but I need to know, like, where we're standing.
Because I feel like, it was a big problem for you,
that I didn't go to say goodbye to your mom and your sister.
No, it's because
I didn't feel like I could see them without going off on them.
If I would've gone up there to say goodbye to your mom and sister,
they wouldn't have liked what I had to say to them. So...
I don't trust your mom and sister still.
What are you talking about? I feel like
if I would have said goodbye to your mom and sister,
I couldn't hold back from asking them about what Obed told me.
Who? His family.
I'm still suspicious of what Obed told me,
even though Pedro denies it.
I want to trust that Pedro was 100% honest about our marriage
but, he's treating me so badly
that it makes me question him more.
Now that we're back in America, I wanna talk about this and I want to know the truth.
I wanna know the truth about why you asked me to marry you.
Did you marry me for love...
..or did you marry me so that you could come to America
and work and send money back? X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:0
Did you marry me for love...
..or did you marry me so that you could come to America
and work and send money back?
Did you marry me for love, or did you marry me to come to America
and send money back to your mom and your sister?
"Yah-yah-yah-yah!"
Well, I don't know, because you're not acting like you love me.
No matter how many times Pedro denies
that he used me for a Green Card,
it's only his words against Obed's words.
And it's hard, cos I can't prove them either way.
It's always in the back of my mind now.
And it's hard moving on with life here
with that sort of insecurity.
Pedro, I don't want to be like this with you right now.
I want to have a happy life.
I did not expect to be with a husband
and have these kind of problems.
Don't make (BLEEP) threats at me like that!
You're not going to sit here and talk to me like a dog.
You don't ever say that (BLEEP) to me ever again.
Get away from me.
OK. (BLEEP)
(SNIFFLES)
Hey, hey, hey. (BABY CRIES)
I know, I know.
But this is an American thing to have a baby in a car seat.
Yeah, we're not gonna be like they're in Columbia,
when they ride with the infants on the motorcycles.
(CHUCKLES)
My mom and Russ's mom went back home a few weeks ago
and today we're going to the beach with Axel.
It's going to be his first time and I am really excited.
I wanna see his reaction.
(GRUNTS) OK.
Ooh!
Hey. Hey.
(KISSES) Yes. We finally made it out.
Yes. Mm.
It's not that my body is quite there yet, the way it was,
but it's getting there.
I am working out, um, trying to get back in shape.
Put him in there.
(CRYING)
Sh. Sh.
There's sun in his legs.
I am about to get him into the... Here, Pao.
Yeah.
Are you OK?
(SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
(GRIZZLES)
You're too sleepy.
Ssh.
Well, we made it. Yeah. It's a lot of effort, huh? Yeah.
It hasn't been easy since my mom left
and I've gone back to work.
Pao isn't happy with my work schedule.
I feel like I'm still figuring out this work and home-life dynamics.
It is difficult, but I really just want to enjoy these moments
so, being here at the beach with Pao and Axel, for his first time, is awesome.
You wanna feel the sand in your toes?
What is that? What is that? Is that sand?
You think he will get used to Miami?
Because you're a Latino. Yes, you're a Latino.
You look like you're father. Mm...
You wanna hold him?
You think the baby is gonna be, like, speaking Spanish
like better than you, or you're gonna catch up?
I need to catch up, that's for sure
but, yeah, I think he'll force me to learn.
Yeah, you need to because I don't want him to be just a gringito.
No. No.
I want to my baby to learn English and Spanish
and of course, Spanish is going to be his first language.
One of the biggest reason is that
nobody in my family speak English.
So I want my son to be able to communicate with everybody
in my family, so he can connect with them.
(SIGHS) But I am glad that we're doing this.
Me too. See, it feels good to be out of the house.
And the monotony. Yep.
I am enjoying it with my family, that's what I'm thinking.
Why can't you think that way? I am enjoying it.
You're making comments about how it's good for you and Axel.
It's not good for me to be a part of this?
Yeah, it is good.
And Axel and I we're just, most of the time at home, so...
Axel is so young, but he hasn't been long in this world
and Russ has been travelling a lot, like, he's missing so much.
Literally, it's been 50% of our son's life, I've travelled
and honestly, I am frustrated just as much as Pao is,
um, but duty calls.
(BABY CRIES) Shh. Shh.
It's OK. (SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE)
(EXHALES)
See, Mama knows how to do it.
Mama knows best.
Thanks.
Yeah, you know, it's difficult
knowing that I have to go to the office.
And my work does involve travel, so...
Just the fact that you have to leave for five days.
When I travel I get paid more, so there is that benefit behind it.
It's not about money, it's about you being gone
so much and now when Axel needs you the most,
when we both need you the most.
You think I should go find a new job?
What do you think? I feel like I did what you asked before
and was looking for work back in the oil industry,
I find something and then I have to turn it down.
Yeah, but in the worst place that I want to go back.
I get that Oklahoma is not in the picture any more.
I just feel like, "What about the things that I want to do?"
I would love to try something new.
I would like to go back to motherland,
but all those things requires for me to be out of the house
and I can't do that because I am the only one taking care of Axel.
You're not the only one taking care of him. Stop saying that.
And I want you to pursue your dream just like I want to pursue my stuff.
I will, yeah. I am not gonna hold you back.
You're gonna have to realise it's gonna take some co-ordinating.
It's gonna take some teamwork.
We can both do this.
(SIGHS) We just have to work together.
I really felt that after having the baby,
everything was going to keep being smooth.
Like, we're going to be all together,
and loving each other but I feel like,
it has been really overwhelming for me.
And, it's kind of affecting our relationship.
Yeah, we need to work on our marriage. We do.
It's stressful, making sure we're making the right decisions.
It's stressful between parents, ourselves...
..but at the same time, the birth of our baby:
it's so beautiful that I wouldn't change it for the world.
And I love and adore Pao even more.
And I find her just as attractive and even more now.
Aw, I love you.
Look, I just wanna enjoy this moment OK?
OK. No comments, nothing like that.
Hello. Look who's here.
Sister time. (LAUGHS)
I haven't seen my family much since I have had Eleanor.
Just because I've been busy at home with her
and Andrei and I are still getting into this routine.
So, I am at Jenn's house today to meet up
and hangout with my sisters
and tell them about the second wedding in Moldova.
Libby, you look good. Oh, thank you.
I know, flat tummy. You look really good. Thanks.
Have you been working out? I'm walking.
That's it? Can't really work out yet.
You look like a little European lady. I do?
..with your shoes and that backpack.
(LAUGHING) Her outfit's so cute.
Hm, thanks to aunt Jenn. That's the outfit you got her.
Andrei didn't want to dress her in any of the stuff you got her.
Why? Cos he thinks it's like you dressing her.
Strange human being. Like, see my daughter.
What? It's a baby.
He has a screw loose.
When she told me that Andrei said, he didn't want the baby
wearing those outfits, I mean...
I think nothing of it, because some of the stuff
that comes out of his mouth is just, like...nonsense.
So, I don't... I kind of brush it off.
Libby, I think the last time I saw her was when Thomas and I came up, like two-and-a-half weeks ago.
Yeah. And now she's a lot bigger. What have you been doing lately?
I mean, besides the obvious. Just being a mom. (LAUGHS)
Besides that, have you and Andrei gone out anywhere?
Uh-uh. Not really, I mean we got like a massage.
I just remember when Jenn had kids,
I feel like I... was with her all the time.
From the moment she brought him home from the hospital.
And I feel like, I've only seen you literally only seen you twice.
Yeah. Does Andrei not want us there?
No, I mean he hasn't said anything.
I don't know, I just find it kinda funny,
that you haven't really, you know, said,
"Hey, come over and see the baby!"
I don't - You don't need an invite.
Yeah, you say that... Dad said the same thing.
Do you get that vibe, Jenn? What?
That Andrei doesn't want us there.
Yeah, he's definitely more like...
When you're there, you feel that way?
It's like he's become more territorial of you.
But I feel like's he's always been like that, he, like...
He tries to keep, like, Libby, like...
But now, it's like even more - that's the vibe I'm getting.
I think Jenn forgot what it's like to have a newborn baby, because
they're literally sitting here giving me grief
about not being around as often.
But they don't need an invitation to come over to our house.
They can come over whenever they want.
And Andrei and I are starting our family,
so Jenn and Becky need to give us a break.
Is Andrei been helping you a lot? (SIGHS) Yeah, he's been, like,
doing the cooking and doing the dishes and stuff,
but I am still cleaning because he doesn't know how to do that.
You're still cleaning, with your newborn? Yeah.
Libby, I think that is crazy.
He needs to get over himself.
He really needs to get over himself. Seriously.
It's like he has, like, this ego and, like, this pride.
You know I was really hoping that
Eleanor would bring the family together in a way.
But there's still, like, this great divide
between Andrei and my family
and Jenn and Becky are just looking to cause tension with Andrei.
So I am not going to mention the Moldavian wedding
because I think it's going to create
more drama between my family and his. X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:0
I knew marrying Larissa was going to be hard.
It was gonna be a long shot,
but I saw a possibility and I wanted to follow that.
But I failed.
Larissa was arrested again.
Larissa's has been here for a year and she's been arrested three times.
Larissa and I just started to argue, like we usually do.
Larissa was upset at me
and she kept going and going, and going.
And, as the hours progressed, she became more vile.
During the argument, my mother must have woken up
and she was freaking out, and she wanted Larissa to calm down.
My mom felt like Larissa was out of control
so, ultimately, my mother called the police.
DEBBIE: Hey. Hey.
Can I help you? Probably.
Here.
I have no idea what to do with all this stuff.
Just pack it up, I don't know.
Larissa is no longer living in this house.
She called me from jail
and started begging for help, asking for help,
but I can't bail her out any more.
Larissa was released from jail two days later.
Honestly, I have no idea who posted bail for Larissa
and I have no idea where she's at.
I never thought it would end like this.
I'm...devastated.
I know.
I saw a future with this woman. I know.
Here I am and...
I am packing up our life.
I am packing up Larissa in these boxes.
You bought all this stuff for her to be happy. $20 here.
$100 here. Oh, look, she wanted this, $50 here.
$30 here, and this made her happy for maybe ten minutes.
She consumed me. Consumed everything.
My bank account, my very existence.
She wanted to just take everything that I am.
And just... I know.
..kill it. I know.
And she did not care, at all. Nothing.
I know.
When Larissa decided to come to America,
I never thought she'd act like this, not in 1,000 years.
I never thought she'd be attacking me.
I...
This is not the person that I met in Mexico.
This is not the person I fell in love with.
She's destroyed your self-respect,
destroyed you, your humanity.
You don't know who you are.
(WEEPING)
(SOBS)
Mom, Mom, Mom. Mom, Mom, Mom...
Mom, I am sorry. (SOBS)
Mom...
(SOBS)
Uh, I think our relationship is strained right now.
I don't know what's gonna happen
because I know, deep down inside, he blames me, I know he does.
He says, not he doesn't, but...
(SNIFFLES)
I think probably maybe...
..maybe they would have been different if I wasn't living with them.
(SNIFFLES)
No, no, Mom. It's OK.
(CRYING)
(SOBS)
Mom, look at me, Mom.
Mom, I don't resent you.
I love you, you're my mother.
I'm your son. Hey.
I don't blame you.
You've always been there for me.
Since I was born. (CHUCKLES)
I know you've always wanted what's best for me. I love you.
What if she called you tomorrow and said,
"Colty, I need you."
Colty's dead. I am not there for her.
I worry every day
that somehow she's gonna convince Colt to welcome her back.
Because I hate Larissa. I don't like who she is.
I don't like what she did to Colt.
I don't want them to keep doing this.
This needs to stop.
What do you want to happen to her?
You done? Are you through?
Can you...move on now?
It's over.
And you know what?
Right before her third arrest,
I filed for adjustment of status.
She's gonna try to get a Green Card.
She could stay here.
I could be liable for her for ten years, supporting her.
Larissa needs to go home.
She crossed the line, not once, not twice, but thrice. It's over.
She will not get that Green Card. I don't give a (BLEEP).
I will testify against her.
Larissa's first two criminal cases were dismissed
because I didn't testify.
This time it's different.
I will do everything that I can
that makes sure that Larissa is found guilty.
There's no more excuses for Larissa at this point.
She has to be punished for what she did.
I don't know what the future will hold for me or you,
but I'll be there for you. OK.
I love you. I love you too, and I'll be there for you.
Love you.
..The Couples Tell All...
How many women in America have you had sex with?
Two. That's a lie.
Do you love your momma more than your ex-wife? Shut the (BLEEP) up!
Don't open your mouth to me again for the entire Tell All.
Aaaaah!
You went over there, to hang out with (BLEEP)!
Who is that girl? Have you ever been intimate with her?
Hold up. We've got a situation here.
You put me in the middle of it, it's not fair.
I am trying to help and I see this kind of attitude.
Cut her off.
Azan, why did you cancel this trip at the very last second?
Are you there with somebody, Larissa?
Scoot over. Who the (BLEEP) are you?
Get (BLEEP) off the screen. Face the facts.
It didn't work. You're not a part of this, dude.
(BLEEP) off. Looks like I am.
Larissa, you're (BLEEP) now.
Dude, just wake up, you know.
This is enough. (BLEEP)
This is (BLEEP) too much.
Jay?
I'm going back to Jamaica.
But first, the surprising details leading up to Larissa's trial...
ICE may be looking to deport you between now and then,
or at least pick you up and detain you.
Find out if Colt and Larissa's relationship can survive.
Larissa's been texting me.
She's never gonna let him go.
She's using you.
If Debbie and Colt testify against me, my life in America can be destroyed.
Today is the big day OK? Ready to go?
