- What are your thoughts on Bambi as a stepmom?
- I don't care for her. I never have.
- You're not around Debbie Downer anymore, so.
- Debbie Downer? - Debbie--Bambi.
Debbie Downer. - Oh.
- Rasheeda has a bone to pick with me because I didn't
tell her where Spice was when I went
to the Dominican Republic.
And Yandy, Bambi, Erica, Sierra,
all of them, same thing.
- If you pushed a little more buttons,
then we can make a grand opening date.
Can't make a grand opening--
- It ain't my fault somebody [bleep]
wanted to talk some [bleep] about
what the [bleep] we're doing.
Kirk lately being an [bleep], talking about
I dropped the ball.
- I apologize for my [bleep] up attitude.
- Well, your apology is accepted.
On another note, we did get the permit.
- So we back moving?
- Yes.
The doctor just told me I have another hernia.

My mom and kids are back in Atlanta again
after that whole allergy scare with my daughter.
I want--[gasps]
- Wait, what's wrong with your face?
- Oh, my God.
Every day is something else.
But she's in a better place now,
and that's just what matters.
Him losing balance. Hit him! [laughs]
The fact that my kids are in Atlanta,
I definitely want them to have fun and enjoy the city,
but at the same time, I definitely
have to share what's going on with my health.
I have multiple surgeries that I need to perform.
Like, you have to get the stent removal,
you know, you have to get the gallbladder removal,
and I have another hernia.
I definitely don't wanna hide this
from them so I can prepare them for what's to come.
I know you guys wanted to stay longer,
but you have to go back because of school.
So I really wanted to talk to you guys
and tell you something that I haven't been open about
what I'm going through.
They may have to open me back up again
and do multiple surgeries, and I
wasn't telling you guys because I never wanted
to get worried about it.
- Okay.
- But I know that God will carry you through.
- He definitely will. - Mm-hmm.
- Turning colors?
Don't cry, please.
You're gonna make me cry, and I've
been crying a lot about this.
- They don't want to cry.
They don't have to cry.
- You don't have to cry, son, trust me.
Mommy's gonna be fine.
You don't need to cry.
Look at me.
- When I was sick in the DR, he started
hearing all these rumors that I'd died
and that I was in a coma, I was having a heart attack,
so he's having that emotion of feeling
like maybe he can lose me.
They found another hernia, so now I have two hernias.
So they will have to repair the hernia.
And you tell me I must tell you everything.
You tell me I must hide nothing from you.
So that's why I'm telling you guys.
But I promise, when I do the surgery, you're going to know.
And I promise we're gonna get through this together.
- Amen.
- That's just hard for me, to put out, like, a good face
and to act like I'm strong and I got this.
Like, I really don't even know if I got it.
- You okay, Toy?
- I love you, okay?
- I love you, too.
- I promise I'm always gonna be here, by the grace of God.

- Ah! [both laugh]
- What's up, girl? How are you?
- Come on, blonde.
They say they have more fun.
- You know how we do. - Yes.
- So today, I'm meeting up with my girl, E Double Erica Dixon.
We got a lot of things to discuss,
a lot of things to catch up on.
And I'm excited, because the one-on-ones
is when we really get into all the tea.
What is good?
- It's good to see you.
I feel like it's been forever.
- I know. Life be lifing.
- Yes, we've been working.
- For real. - I love it, though.
Emani is about to turn 18.
- I cannot believe that.
- Yes, girl, listen.
- I can't believe it, Erica. For real.
For us to be able to just see them manifest and grow
and just go in they directions and become who they are.
It's just--it's just a beautiful thing.
- It is. Ooh, yes.
Looks good.
- What you got? - Ceviche.
What you got? - Oh.
Oh, those look like some little crab.
- Oh, they look good. - Don't they?
- Oh, thank you.
What's been going on with you, though?
- So we're in the process of revamping the bistro,
converting it from, like, nightlife
to breakfast and brunch.
Which leads me to the grand reopening of Frost Bistro.
- Yay!
- So I need to see your face in the place.
- You know I'm always there for support.
You know I've been there. - Yes.
- We done hoo! - We did some things.
- We done did some things, baby.
So I am there.
- Now, y'all know me and Erica got some history.
[giggling]
- Open the door.
- Thank you for coming.
Bobbsey Twins. Out of here.
- Call us the Bobbsey Twins if you want.
- Bye, Bobbseys. - Wait a minute.
Hold up. - Get up.
- If I need a ride or die, all I gotta do is hit up Dixon,
and she on the way.
I did invite Bambi, of course.
And Scrappy, of course.
You know, with the whole situation with Scrappy
and Bambi, do you think Emani will still be able to like,
freely come and go and see her siblings,
you know, at Bambi's?
How do you think that whole dynamic will work out?
- I hope they can.
I have actually been supporting Scrappy,
just to make sure, like, this whole divorce is peaceful.
Because I'm just like, you don't need to go through
what we went through.
You shouldn't go through-- you know what I'm saying?
Again, like anything involving kids,
like, I'm just sensitive towards that.
So I want Emani to be happy, and I want her
to have a relationship with her siblings.
But she doesn't have any desire to go there
based off of Bambi. - Really?
- Yes.
Bambi, she constantly talk about me around my child.
You're negative and derogatory about her father
in front of my child.
You don't feed my child.
So drop the good girl act like you're just
the best stepmom ever.
One time, when we was exchanging Emani,
because I'm like, okay, you gonna be with her.
I'm like, hey, I'm speaking to just kind of break the ice.
- Right. - Like, what's up?
What's going on?
She said, you don't say what's up, what's going on to me.
You say, hi, Bambi.
That's how you address me.
I said, say what?
- She said that? - I said--
- That is...different. - I was like, girl, what?
I'm like, who are you talking to?
At the family reunion a few years back,
I actually approached Bambi because, you know,
I just wanted a kumbaya moment.
I really want us to be at a place of peace.
- Yeah.
- If you ever have a issue, anything, you can come to me.
- Whatever you need, I got you.
- It was short-lived.
And then soon after that, you didn't wanna be around me,
and you did not want Scrappy around me either.
And then I'm hearing stories as far as Emani
being over there, and then, Bambi is feeding, like,
everybody else in the house except for Emani,
and your excuse is, she didn't come out the room?
It turned into a big-ass mess.
- It's just so weird to hear that because,
honestly speaking, I always get such, like,
motherly love vibes from her.
Like, she will give her [bleep] last.
- That's not what I get. - That's just what I--
I see such a different side. That's crazy.
- That's the version.
- Bambi is like this nurturing mom.
I've seen her and Emani, you know, together, happy.
And to hear what's going on now,
you know, what's the full story?
Ain't nobody gotta be best friends.
They ain't gotta be buddy buddy, none of that.
But just a hint of a healthy relationship,
because it spills into the kids.
- If you're so nurturing, why do we have a child
that does not care to be around you?
- Right.
- And I made a pact with Scrappy about Emani.
We're gonna do everything that's
in the best interest of Emani.
And with her going off to college,
she needs us more than anything,
because this is shaping her. - It is.
- You know what I'm saying? It's my life.
- For her to be the woman that she's going to be.
- She's gonna be. - Yeah.
- And I hope he sticks with it.
Because you know your boy.
He is hot and cold. - He is. He is.
- I'm like, get your boy.
- He didn't talk to her too much.
He over here talking about,
I need you to really appreciate it.
[bleep] you sound like Scrappy. - [laughs]
- Want his [bleep] feet rubbed. Bitch, I'm busy.
- Girl, don't remind me.
Why you looking at me like that?
- Treat like royalty.
- The things we did for love.
Whoo. - Girl, tell me about it.
- But we are here. - We are.
- It's about growth and prosperity.
- It is.
- Yes.
- Coming up on "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta"...
- One of the main concerns that everybody's been having
is because I have another hernia,
that I can't go on stage to perform.
- It's a little bit complicated.
- Scrap and Erica and Emani, they took
like, a trip to Puerto Rico for Emani's birthday.
- Oh, wow.
- And it's making the situation worse for us.
- He proposed to me first.
He wanted to be with me.
- Let's see if he's with you now.
- I left.
- Why are you still arguing about your baby daddy?
- You're second best.

- I'm excited about this. I've been wanting to do--
- Oh, me too.
- I've never made a candle before.
- With the surgery coming up, I thought
going candle-making with Bambi would be
the perfect thing for me to do.
And I know she's going through a lot right now.
I figured that she would love to have some fun
and just catch up.
- Got y'all some nice, cute jars.
- Oh, nice. - Okay.
- We got nipples, too. Do y'all like--
- Oh, wow, it's a nipple. It really is a nipple.
- That's literally a nipple. - Let me get that.
- You wanna do a nipple?
- Yeah, let me try a nipple.
- It look like your little breast.
So, girl, haven't seen you since the spa day.
- I know. - How have you been?
- I did find a doctor, Dr. Hawkins.
She's one of the best physicians here in Atlanta.
She specializes in cysts and fibroids.
- She a Black woman? - She's a Black woman.
So they have to go in and operate.
I'm so sick and tired of being in pain.
I'm still on pain management because if I don't have
the narcotics, I can't even function or stand up.
I just kind of grin and bear, grin and bear, grin and bear.
- Typical Black woman stuff, right?
- Yeah, seriously. Typical Black woman stuff.
- It really breaks my heart because as Black women,
we go through so much, mentally,
physically, emotionally, and then
we just have to hide it and keep it to ourselves
because we don't even support each other enough
to give each other grace for the things
that we're going through.
But you know what, I'm happy that you're
getting this taken care of so you can be healthy down there.
It's like, you found this amazing doctor.
- Yes. Get me right. - She's gonna get you together.
And then you're gonna have a baby.
- Yes.
- So anyways, I don't know if you're gonna be feeling up
to it, but Rasheeda's gonna have like, her grand reopening
at the Frost Bistro. - Okay.
- So I feel like you should probably come out.
- Yeah, I just--definitely. I would love to.
- Yeah.
- Isn't she friends with Scrap?
- Yeah. They're friends.
- You think he's gonna be there?
- You know what, I'm-- you never know.
Like, recently, him and Erica and Emani,
they took, like, a trip to Puerto Rico
for Emani's birthday.
all: ♪♪ Happy birthday to you ♪♪
- We out here on vacation.
- When we are actually, like, together, he's like,
oh, I would never-- never go anywhere with her.
Scrap is acting off of a lot of emotion right now,
and it's making the situation worse for us.
Like, he's creating, like, a smear campaign now.
So everybody he goes around, if they don't like me,
it's perfect for him, because he can talk [bleep] about me
to his mom, to Erica, to Diamond, to all these people
and just try to turn everybody, like, against me.
- They gonna keep pushing you, though,
and you gonna bark up the wrong tree.
- But you know what?
I hope they don't, because I just don't--
- I hope they don't. It's bad for them if they do.
- It's so crazy. - It's the quiet ones like us.
- Girl.
- They keep quiet, but when people keep triggering us,
we can give it to them.

- Ma Spicy.
Hi. - You made it.
- So my friend Spice has been having some difficult days,
and Spice is so nervous about this doctor's appointment.
So I'm definitely going to be by Spice's side through this,
just helping her to know that
she got a friend, I got her back.
- And I'm hoping for good news.
- Yeah.
- I'm tired of hearing bad news.
My mom and my kids came because of what
happened to my daughter.
- Yeah.
All the swelling went down? - It went down.
The medications worked.
She's better now. - Good.
- When I had that scare from the other doctors
that I may have another hernia,
I wanted just to check up with one of my surgeons,
just to make sure and get a second opinion
and to find out and get his take on what's
really happening, because at this point,
I'm really getting nervous.
So having Yandy by my side as a friend,
it's good to have someone that you
can talk to to share this moment,
because I've been living with a lot.
- So tell me, what's going on? What's new?
- As you know, I went back into the hospital again.
- Right. Did they remove the stents yet?
- No, so the stent is still inside of me.
I was told that I have another hernia.
- Okay.
- And I was also having the gallbladder issues,
and they wanted to do another surgery
to remove the gallbladder.
- Because of the extensiveness of the amount of surgery
that you had, you had a lot of scarring.
In cases like that, you have to open up that previous scar,
and they would have to go through all of the scar tissue
to actually get to your gallbladder.
It's a little bit complicated.
We'll just take you back a little bit.
You can see she has some pretty severe scarring.
- Oh my gosh, sis.
- I know.
You've never seen it, right?
- She has a nice sized hernia right here.
The next step for you, I typically
would recommend that you wait at least, like,
about six months to a year. - Really?
- We can repair the hernia and have your gallbladder done
all at the same time.
The longer you wait, the better off you are
because it will allow the scarring
to kind of minimize.
- I was thinking I had to do all these different multiple
surgeries and go through anesthesia again and again
and again, but hearing Dr. Jones say that just
one more time, and that I can wait a year for my body
to fully heal and recover, that's some positive news
that I really wanted to hear.
I'm like... [sighs] Thank you, God.
One of the main concerns that everybody's
been having is, because I have another hernia,
that I can't go on stage to perform.
- I wouldn't say that.
You can always wear, like, a waist trainer,
just to give you some more support.
And just try to avoid overextending yourself.
- Oh, my God.
- Avoid overextending yourself.
- I won't do much.
Thank you so much, Dr. Jones. - Yeah.
- I shall not die, but live to declare the works of the Lord.
- Ya, man.
- Coming up on "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta"...
- I just feel like Shekinah's jealous of me.

Ahh! I'm not speaking to you.
Tell me when I'm wrong so I can fix it
and not do it again, please? You promise?

- I know that Meda and Spice made up lately,
so I'm just gonna let time tell,
and hopefully, she'll come around.
- I'm gonna tell you when you wrong.

finally get back together-- - You can't cry.

I'ma write a contract and I'ma give it to her,
and I'ma say, listen, your job is,
as a friend, if you ever mad at me,
just tell me so I can fix it.
- I mean, if we could get everybody else
out the business giving their two cents,
then maybe you and Spice can get somewhere.
- Like Shekinah?
- Uh, yeah.
- Shekinah is a bandwagon bitch.
She tries to get everybody on her bandwagon
to not [bleep] with you.
She's jealous of me and Spice's relationship,
so she would feed Spice things like, oh, yeah,
don't [bleep] with Karlie.
That's the enemy right there. Not me.
I just feel like Shekinah's jealous of me,
for some reason, jealous of me and Spice's friendship.
So anything to get Karlie away from Spice,
I feel like that's how she is.
Oh, you know a bitch that be trying,
oh, I'm mad at you, so I'm gonna
get everybody mad at you. - To be mad at you.
- A bandwagon bitch.
You know them type of--you know what them type of chicks?
Shekinah's definitely a bandwagon chick.
You don't come around. You never been to no shows.
You ain't never been to Jamaica without no paparazzi.
Now I'm hearing Shekinah saying that I'm the reason
she didn't come visit Spice.
It's her business to tell y'all to come.
- Right.
Yeah, I mean, Yandy approached me.
I had my event at the Art of Women on Friday,
and Yandy approached me about it,
and she said she was mad because you
ain't respond to her.
- I have been calling and texting and calling
and texting Karlie.
No response. - Right.
- All I wanted to hear you say was she's alive
from a person that I considered my friend.
- Have y'all spoken?
- I mean, she called me on the phone and she said,
I have something to tell you, and I'ma say it in person.
I was like, okay.
I know Yandy is also mad at me because I wasn't
responding to her when I was in the Dominican Republic.
If Yandy wants to have it out in public,
let's do it, because I'm tired of this, where was Spice at?
If you wanna find out where Spice is,
go to the Dominican Republic and find out,
too, just like I did.
Remember I was telling you I might write Spice a letter?
- Be honest and put your feelings out there.
- Yeah. - No excuses.
- No excuses. No nothing.
I know I didn't communicate with her.
- It's a grand gesture.
[cork pops] - Whoo!

- I'm a rich one. Don't forget. Rich-ass [bleep].
Joc was there.
- I mean, what was your take on it?
- My take was, I felt like Erica just picked a bad time.
- Was it--did it come off disrespectful?
- She was--she was simple, right?
- Why these men in this generation don't ride for us?
- I rode.
- Let's just be for real, she's gonna have more intel
from your side, from your point of view.
At that moment, no matter what you and her may have discussed,
that wasn't the time to say that [bleep] out loud.
And I just think the conversation
went too far in public.
That's all it was.
- So let's be clear.
I warned them before they left my house, I said,
do not say anything to this guy,
especially in this setting.
Like, he's way too defensive to receive anything
from y'all right now, so just don't do it.
I mean, sometimes friends and family,
they get a little too invested.
- Happy belated birthday.
I'm sorry I couldn't make it. - You weren't at my party.
- I know. Emani turned 18, and, honey,
she wants to live her best life.
- And I know y'all always go away.
- We went to Puerto Rico. - Oh, of course.
You are a super mom. - That I am.
I'm just glad, like, me and her dad
are finally, like, on a good page.
- Oh, good. - Girl, he came out there.
Shocked the hell out of me. - To Puerto Rico?
- Yes, bitch.
- Wait, wait, wait, hold on. Hold on.
Back all the way track.
- [mimics tires screeching]
- He came and met you and y'all's daughter...
- Yes.
- In Puerto Rico?
- Yes. We co-parenting very well.
I was just--I was shocked.
- So he wanted to see his baby for her 18th birthday.

Because we constantly, you know what I'm saying,

And I'm just like, at the end of the day,
like, focus, focus, focus.
The goal is Emani. - Yeah.
- Goal is Emani. - That's it.

- What? - Grand opening, grand closing.
- You never told me you married to him.
- I'm just trying to make it happen.
- [indistinct]
- Trying to. Trying to.
- Hey, girl.
- I came bearing cocktails. - Yes.
I'm gonna call you back.
- Ooh, what's going on?
- I've been asking--
I've been asking, everybody been saying the food
is good, honey. - Yeah.
- Everything is so good.
Thanks, queen.
- You know, we're here, and hopefully,
everything just works out really, really well,
and we can make [bleep] happen.
You know Bambi is here.
- I heard. - Yeah. She's here.
I've always been the one to try to get Erica and Bambi to get
on, like, the same page.
Giving it a try right now might not be a bad idea.
I really hope that y'all can get on the same page.
Emani has two little sisters and a little brother
that she should be able to kick it and do
all of those fun things.
Like, that's what life is about.
That's what having family is about.
Are you cool if I bring her over here to talk?
- Okay. - Okay?
I'll be back.
Watch my drink.
- It is Rasheeda's event, so she thinks it's
a good idea to do this now.
Hell, why not give it a shot?
I know that I'm mature enough to have
this conversation with Bambi.
Let's just hope that she can do the same.
- Can you come outside with me? - Yeah, sure.
- I have someone out here who I want you to talk to.
- Is it Carter? - It's not.
[laughter]
- Okay. That's fine.
- No, I do not. - Okay, babe.
All right. All right.
- Oh, my God. - All right.
- When I got outside and I saw Erica, I'm like,
okay, here we go.
Like, what's the point?
Your daughter is 18.
My kids are one, two, and four.
Your baby daddy is released back to the world.
So, like, what do we even have to talk about?
- So y'all know forever, I've been trying to get
y'all to talk, of course.
- Oh, we've talked. - I know, but--
- Yeah.
- You guys have children who are siblings.
- Absolutely. - You know what I'm saying?
I think it's important for us as women and as parents
for us to get to a level for our family
that everybody can love on each other and be together,
and the children are always the ones who come first.
- Right. - You know what I'm saying?
- Well, yeah, because of course--see, Emani's 18 now.
I would like for her just to be able to have a relationship
with her siblings. - Of course.
- And she can-- - And I--I think--
- I mean, the door's always open.
I have a new house.
She still has her same bedroom furniture in there.
She's always been welcome to come
over and visit her siblings.
And so it's not an issue.
- It's not an issue at all. - Never.
- It is an issue.
- Why is it an issue?
- Because Emani hasn't even been over there.
- To my new house?
- She hasn't been to the old house...
- Yes, she has been to the old house.
- In--in quite-- quite some time.
If we're gonna talk, we gonna have
a real conversation. - Let's--let's do it.
- And we're gonna keep it all the way real.
- Absolutely.
- My child has not been over there because of you--
- Yes, she has. I--I have cameras...
- Come on.
- Put in right now of her being at the house
when I'm not there.
- Yeah, when you're not there. - Exactly.
- Notice what you're saying. When you're not there.
So she's went when you're not there, Bambi,
because you've mistreated her.
Our child.
- Let's keep it all the way 100.
- We are gonna keep it 100. - If we're gonna keep it 100--
- Let's keep it. - No, no, no, no, no, no.
- Do you know why-- - Let's keep it 100.
- Do you know why she had an issue with you?
- Let's keep it 100.
- Because your daughter told me you abused her.
- So after all these years of just being quiet,
Erica trying to accuse me of mistreating her daughter
was the final straw for me.
I'm like, you wanna accuse me of mistreating a child
when Emani confided in me, you know,
she would be upset in telling us that her mom, you know,
was basically abusing her.
- Come on.
- That's why I had an issue with you.
And I have a tape. - We gonna start with the lies?
- That--no, this is--listen.
- That's what we're gonna start with, lie--
- No, no, no, no.
- My child ain't never told you nothing like that.
- The police came to my house. I have a police report, Erica.
- Well, see, those were you and Scrappy's accusations.
- I have a police report of her talking to the police.
- See, y'all two raggedy asses had me investigated.
And guess what?
- You sent the police to our house.
- My children are still with me.
- So the abuse accusations came when
I had to actually go to Scrappy's house
to getting money.
My lawyer told me to get a police escort
because it was just so much drama.
When the police got there, it turned into,
oh, she's abusing Emani.
What bothered me the most was the fact
that Scrappy tried to use the police report
to get full custody of Emani, knowing good and well
that I wasn't abusing her.
- You fighting for child support in the same [bleep]
with Scrappy right now. - Who's fighting for child--
I don't need child support. - You, bitch.
I went with Scrappy to the--
- Why are you calling me a bitch?
I've never called you a bitch. - That's what you are.
You a [bleep] bitch. - That's too much.
- That's what you are. - That's enough.
- That is my husband. - I do one thing.
I don't give a [bleep] about that.
Bitch, you're second best. - Girl.
- He followed me to the Dominican Republic.
- Never. Erica. Erica! - And you know that ho.
- He proposed to me first. - Listen.
- He wanted to be with me. - He did.
So let's see if he's with you now.
- He wanted to marry me and I left, ho. I left.
- Let's see if he's with you now.
Why are you still arguing about your baby daddy?
- You're second best, ho. You're second best.
- What do you wanna do? Do you wanna square up?
- When I see you on the streets--
[both shouting indistinctly] - No, no, no, no, no, no.
- You know I don't like you, bitch.
- You ain't gonna do [bleep]. - Oh, is that a fight?
- Girl, what? Who ain't gonna do [bleep]?
- No.
- Let me out. Let me out. - I'ma go out there.
- Whoa. I ain't paid my insurance yet.
- ♪♪ Make my way to the top, and there ain't no stoppin' ♪♪
[tense music]
- The streets. - You wanna square up?
- [shouting indistinctly]
- No, no, no, no, no.
- Oh, is that a fight? - Let me out. Let me out.
- I'ma go out here.
- You ain't gonna do [bleep]. - I will slap that up out you.
- You had a whole lot of opportunities.
- I'ma come see you. Where is she? I'ma be cold.
This raggedy ass bitch is sitting here, mother[bleep]--
bitch, you ain't gonna do [bleep]!
- Listen, I'm not about to argue with a baby mama.
- You're gonna be a baby mama.
- No, I'm gonna be an ex-wife.
- You gonna be a baby-- - No, no, stop. No, no.
- This bitch be talking so much [bleep].
- Stop, stop, stop, stop. - Keep going.
- Bye, bitch. Yeah, walk off.
- You all right?
- Yeah, I'm good.
This girl is gonna be mad at me forever.
- Ain't no disrespect to you, Rasheeda.
But that [bleep] pissed me the [bleep] off
because it took me back to what the [bleep]
I went through, okay?
- Yeah, that's a lot.
- And then, the thing about it is, I was investigated.
They almost took my [bleep] kids.
And for you to-- you the bitch that lied.
- They both knew, like, I'm not abusive.
It's just that--just hatred.
So with God, with prayer, and with therapy,
I have been able to forgive Scrappy
because he's apologized for everything.
So my thing is, if he's mature enough to take accountability,
why can't Bambi?
- What if I made those accusations towards you
and got you investigated with your kids?
- That's--that's a lot.
- That's some trifling [bleep].
And it's all out of spite and hate.
- All right. I didn't know any of that.
And you know that I love you. - Mm-hmm.
- And I don't know all this stuff that
you guys have between you.
What I know of her, I do like her.
And what I do still know to be true is your children
are brothers and sisters, and-- - Period.
- And you guys are going to be in each other's lives.
- And then, even with these type of things transpiring
and this being something that they see.
Because you know what?
When your daughters get older, you don't want them
going through this [bleep]. - Yes.
- Maybe this wasn't the right time.
I thought maybe both of them were ready to have
a grown woman conversation, but I was wrong.
And I will say, with everything in my heart,
my intentions were really good.
- Bambi, let's go. Come on.
- I don't know why she wanted me to talk to her.
Like, it don't even make no sense.
- Okay, well, don't worry about it.
- I don't necessarily think Rasheeda set me up.
But I do think it's like, we're grown women.
We can approach each other if we wanna have
grown women conversations.
I don't need a mediator.
So please, just let's not try it again.
- Rasheeda, why you wanna have me
talk to this [bleep] girl? About what?
- That is not what I thought was gonna happen, bitch.
- You knew what was gonna happen.
- I didn't.
- Let me ask you this.
You've seen me with her child.
Have you ever seen anything that seemed
a little suspect or shady?
- I have not.
- Let me show you something, okay?
It's a pink piece of paper, right?
And this is Scrap trying to get full custody of Emani.
- So we never called the police.
Erica called the police.
But when they got there, it kind of backfired
because then her daughter
went and told the police, my mom has been abusing me.
So you're running off to Puerto Rico with the man
who was trying to get full custody of your daughter
and accusing you of abusing your daughter.
It was not me. It was him.
- We know kids can be manipulative.
- Of course. - You know what I'm saying?
- Ah, yes, they can.
- So that's why I stay out of it.
That's why I've never said anything.
Now, when you're trying to say that I'm mistreating
your child, bitch, we gonna keep it all the way 100
because your child told the police that you
was two-piecing her ass.
You know what I'm saying?
- I don't know what is what.
Erica says certain things about Bambi.
Bambi says certain things about Erica.
You just have to hope that eventually, over time,
that they can kind of, like, come together and get
some type of understanding.
- I don't have no problem with Emani
coming to see her siblings.
The door is gonna always be open.
But I will never [bleep] with her.
Ever. Period.
So please don't try it again. - I won't.
I'm gonna stay my Black ass out of it.
- And I'm gonna stay my blonde ass--
- But I say-- [laughs]
- Bambi, get your ass in the car.
- I love y'all. - Love you.
- Love you too. Bye.
- Bye. - Okay.
- If y'all have this bitch on set again, I'm quitting.
- Coming up on "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta"...
- That's why she never comes around.
Ever. - Karlie.
- She a fake-ass [bleep] friend.
- I got the text right here, honey.
- ♪♪ Make my way to the top, and there ain't no stoppin' ♪♪

- I'm like, ooh. Oh.
- Hey, how are you? - I'm good.
- Well, I didn't even wanna blow up
like that at Rasheeda's event.
That is not what I was here for.
But I have calmed down.
And I just--I just need to have me
a drink and enjoy myself.
- Hey, y'all. - What's up?
- Shekinah, where the [bleep] were you?
- She got me-- y'all better stop playing.
- Nice to meet you. I'm Jessica.
- Oh, hey. Hey, Jessica. - Pleasure to meet you, baby.
Nice to meet you. - How you doing?
- I'm--I'm walking out.
- Why are you leaving?
Hold on. Let me get this right.
Are you-- - Jessica.
- Oh, you never met her?
- You know, I know who you are.
- Where? Where?
- You were [bleep] that boy?
[whoops and laughter] - Oh, [bleep]!
- That's the daughter. - Whoo.
- Let's take a picture. I love you, sister.
- Now, who was she [bleep] the good boy?
- Oh. - At least he had a check.
- Who are you talking about?
Somebody did say that [bleep].
I seen it on the internet.
You know she been on the internet with?
Now you start with it again, bitch.
What?
- You never told me.
- I would have stayed out of it.
- I didn't know.
- My whole entire eight-year relationship
was reduced down to nothing.
I'm mortified, and I just wanted to get out.
- I'm sorry. I'm--I'm just outspoken.
- Shekinah, I love you.
- I love you. And I--
- You gotta know how these men are.
- Oh, my gosh.
Somebody get Shekinah. - Get your friend.
- All right. I love you.
- Get your--
- Messy bitch.
- Hi, babe.
- Oh. - Hi.
You look nice.
- Oh, thank you. Hi. - Hi, friend.
- I haven't seen you for so long.
- I know.
Sorry I'm so late, girl.
What did I miss?
- It's been a crazy night.
- Really? Recap.
- Erica Dixon was here.
Something happened with her and Bambi.
They crossed paths, and it was just--
- Sheesh.
- But listen, well, you know that I felt away
with that whole thing with Spice.
- Yeah, and I thought about it. - But listen, wait.
- But I'm gonna let you talk. - Hold on. Let me finish.
So when I saw Spice, when I first saw Spice
for the first time at her house, she wasn't well.
She was just coming out of the hospital.
I said to her, I said, Spice, I gotta keep it above with you.
I said, the fact that, you know, you and Meda told Karlie
that she couldn't let me know what was going on,
I said, I feel a way about that.
And she looked at me like I had 17 heads.
I've been upset with Karlie for months now
because I was told Spice told her not to tell me
what was happening in DR.
But when I asked Spice, why couldn't she tell me,
Spice said that was a bold-faced lie
and she never told Karlie that.
So now I gotta get to the bottom of this.
- They told me, hey, guys, let's keep this between us.
Let's not tell anybody.
I didn't wanna look messy. - Oh, come here.
I'm talking about you right now.
- What? Me? - Matter of fact. Come here.
- Talking about you. - Why are you talking about me?
- I told her I did not wanna look messy
telling your business about somebody
being in a hospital. - But what you--
- No, that's not what she told me that you said.
- No, no, no, hold on. Hold on.
- No, I told her, that's why I said, I did not wanna say--
I didn't answer her.
So the reason why--
- I didn't answer her at all.
- And then, when she did answer me, what I said--
- I was like, yo, they-- I didn't--I was like, hey--
- She said, Spice-- Spice and Meda told me--
- Didn't want us to tell nobody.
- You--we can't tell you. - No, no, no.
She knows damn well I wasn't even talking.
I couldn't even walk.
- What was said was, Spice and Meda
sat me down and said to me--
- How can we set her down? - Wait a minute.
- Did you say that, Karlie? - Wait a minute.
No, I said Meda and-- - No!
- Listen, they don't want nobody to know
about what's going on. - But who--who said it?
- Because it's already on the block.
- But who--who said it? Meda and Spice, right?
- Meda.
- No, no, no, no, you said Meda and Spice.
- Yes, Meda and Spice afterwards.
It's already on the block.
- Me and Meda was what? - After.
- After what? I never said [bleep] to you.
So be very clear what you're saying.
- Meda definitely said--
- But nobody told you nothing about Yandy.
Nobody ever brought up Yandy.
- I didn't say Yandy. I said Yandy.
I never told Yandy it was to her specifically.
Not to you specifically. - You mixed up my name.
- This is why Meda told me not to come, see?
- Oh, bitch, Meda told you to come because I got
the text right here, honey. - No, Meda told me not to come.
- What? - No, Meda told you to come.
Shekinah is a big [bleep] Cabbage Patch liar.
I pulled the text out when Meda said, "Come.
Come to Dominican Republic."
Right here. I got the text.
And let's keep it a buck.
It was before the season started.
They didn't have cameras up.
And that's the only reason why you didn't go.
Stop lying.
- You only show up-- - What the [bleep]?
- You only show up for paparazzi.
You never come to any of our [bleep].
- Bitch, you in that [bleep] house across the street.
- You never come-- - You a groupie-ass bitch.
- Yeah, bitch, and you're [bleep] a married man!
- You a groupie-ass-- - Ooh!
- [bleep] a married man, bitch! - Oh, what?
- If you my enemy, I'ma find out your deepest,
darkest secrets.

Keep your legs closed to married men.
- Who? Who? - Listen.
- Karlie, talk to me.
- Spice, she's a fake-ass [bleep] friend.
She never comes around. Ever.
When do you see her around for any of the shows?
When do you see her around for anything?
- Karlie. Karlie!

- Well, y'all done ran all my customers off.
Everybody left.

- No, no, we're not talking about Shekinah.
- She only come around for the camera.
- We not talking about Shekinah.
We not talking about Shekinah.
- You're not seeing it. It's not right.
I'm not even pissed at this moment.
It's just that I'm tired of talking about this [bleep].
I have to pick and choose the right people to be around.
That's what I realize.
- Yo, listen, man, I don't know how you got
the mental to deal with this.
- Yo, you funny because you just
sat your ass in the corner...
- And he be like, I ain't got the time for [bleep].

and then here we go with another one.
This is supposed to be a restaurant revamp,
eat good, have cocktails, and have fun.
This ain't the WWE [bleep] Fight Night.
