I've been kind of a bitch the last few weeks.
Like, we're doing the long distance thing once--

It's my grandparents' house.

That's crazy!

She said that she loved me, and then I, like, froze.

- Sure.
- 'Cause I know, like, her and Ben
were kind of, like-- - Yeah, she was just flirting.
- What did they talk about in his room for an hour?
- Wait, hold on.
- According to Bailey.

that Bailey would just start saying things.

- You had mentioned to Lindsay
that when I was there that other weekend,
that I was, like, alone in Ben's room
for, like, an hour.
- Did you guys not go in Ben's room?
- I had gone into Ben's room
because they put my suitcase in there.
So, I basically changed out of my costume.
- Got it. - And he, like, did duck in,
at one point.
- What's going on?
- I'm gonna go change into normal people clothes.
You gonna help me?
- Yeah, where are you going?
- I guess a bathroom.
- I don't know. - See, the whole rhetoric
was that you and Ben were flirting,
but, like, I didn't tell anybody
you guys, like, hooked up or anything.
I don't know what happened in that room
or didn't happen in that room. - No, yeah,
I think that was just-- I think, honestly,
in the moment, when KJ said something,
it was, like, two-fold
feelings hurt, one just because
I immediately got defensive. - Yeah.
- Because I was like, we didn't hook up.
I feel like I was just, like, testing the waters.
- Which is-- you have every right to do.
- Yeah. - I'm sorry.
I would not-- - No, no, no.
I appreciate that. - I don't want you to think
that I would spread a rumor about another girl
that, like, she hooked up with somebody when she didn't.
- No, that was the only thing.
- My point was, there was very clearly
a Ben and Dara moment happening.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. - And then, all of the sudden,
you were dating KJ,
and I was like, what is happening?
I thought Ben and Dara were vibing last weekend.
I thought they seemed obsessed with each other.
I thought they were in love. I don't know.
I might be extremely dramatic,
but I'm not a liar.
I might fluff it a little,
but it's not a-- I would never lie.
- It was obviously flirty, like the whole day was--
- Yeah. - Not what happened that night.
- Well, I'm glad you can admit you and Ben were flirting
'cause Ben acted like I was making it up, and he--
there was nothing, and he was like,
"What are you talking about?"
- Don't insult me. That's insane.
- I-- you're the-- Okay, thank you.
I think Dara and Ben might've fallen in love tonight.
- Did you fall in love with her?
- No. We were all drinking and playing games,
and then that was it.
- I feel like that day was just, like,
a fun, flirty day. - Yeah.
- And so, for Ben to say we didn't have chemistry
is, like, odd.
What a strange thing to need to lie about.
Speak of the devil.

- Welcome. - This is Sabrina.
Sabrina, that's Lindsay. - Hi. How are you?

- Oh, thank you. - These are for you.
- That's so sweet. Thank you.
- And, like, thank you for having me in your home.
- Yeah, of course.
- I'm sure he's gonna say that he never said any of that
and that I'm being dramatic--
- No, no, no.
If he would love to rewrite history
that he was never interested, then by all means.
- He-he just downplayed it, and I was like,
that's not what was happening.
- Yeah. - He was interested in you.
- It's okay. - They all were.
- We all get our feelings hurt when you get rejected.
- How are you? - This is Jesse.
- I've been dying to meet you. - You have?

- What? - And you, as well.
- Very nice to meet you.
- So, you guys met when?
- Well, we met in March.
- Uh, and then after that,
reconnected, and here you are. - We rematched.
[laughing] Here we are.
- When I reached back out to Sabrina to let her know
that I'm thinking of her, she was very open, positive,
and raring to go, like, yeah.
I feel pretty special that she was willing
to give me another chance because I've realized
that, like, I care about her a lot,
and this is what I want to work.
So that's why I'm nervous as (BLEEP).
[laughing]
- Um, she's very sweet, and I-I like her energy,
um, but I'm still just hung up
on how quickly they're just jumping back into things.
I thought they had been hooking up this whole time
and that Ben said that he wasn't seeing anybody
when he, like, had a secret girlfriend, potentially.
That's a good theory.

Amanda and I agreed to go to couples therapy.

- They really did a clean sweep of the entire house.
This house has been in my family forever.
It's honestly the only house I really know.
Growing up, we moved around.
We probably lived in, like, five different houses
from, like, kindergarten to high school,
but my grandparents always just had this one house.
I don't-- it just feels like home, you know.
- Hi. - Hey.
- How are you? I'm Ciara.

We'll just start here since we're in here.
This wall-- I don't know what's load bearing
and what's not, but, in my head,
I want to take this wall down. - Okay.
- I want it to be all the way open.
- Right.
- My idea is to, like, fix it all up.
Bring everything up to code.
I wanna update this one time.
Do a big renovation on it.
But my grandfather built a lot of this house himself,
and it's, like, something I wanna preserve.
- Right.
- My grandfather owned, like, three or four houses
on this street, like, through my childhood,
and each of his kids were given a house,
and they, like, slowly kind of sold off
some of these houses,
but my grandfather was trying to create
some type of generational wealth for his kids.
In Black families, like, home ownership is a big deal.
We didn't get to own things for a long time.
And so, to have something that you own, that's all yours,
is so important.
So, I feel like my grandfather wanted to create
that opportunity for his kids, and I just feel like
I wanna restore his original plan,
and it's like buying this house is the first step to it.

Honestly, I kinda forgot it was his birthday.
I was, like, so tired.
I had, like, such a bad headache,
so I asked if he could just, like, walk the dogs.
I probably should've, like, woke up and said, like,
"Happy birthday. Can you walk the dogs?"
But, instead, I was like, "My head hurts.
Can you please walk the dogs?"
Last weekend was really, really bad.
- But, I feel like there's a lot of things,

In the contract, I have that he can only be gone

How long have you been together?
No. - You're so--

That-that was hard to come out of your mouth.
It looked rough when you said it. - A... a timeline.
I created a very specific timeline,
which is move in together this summer.
Get engaged next summer.
Get married the summer after that.
Tick-tock, mother----er.
Have you guys, like, talked, like, about marriage, kids?
- Yeah. Here's the thing.
Both of my parents passed away.
- Oh, my God, I'm so sorry.
- And I'm just-- no, it's okay.
So, I don't have a village to help me raise kids,
and that's why Scott being away for so long
is even more triggering for me 'cause I'm like
I will feel so alone.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- I've been dealt very strange cards this lifetime.
I lost my dad of cancer when I was 22.
Then, a year and a half ago, my mom died suddenly.
It was the hardest thing I've ever gone through
in my life.
She was my best, best friend.
I talked to her every day, all day.
She was my person. I'm, like, lost without her.
I feel like-- I feel so untethered in the world now
'cause I don't have her anymore.
I feel like I have to work twice as hard now with work.
So does he.
I'm like we're gonna have to pay for a village,
at this point.
- That's what I do because my parents live in Florida.
- Mm-hmm.
- And my baby daddy's parents are in another state.
- Mm-hmm.
- You need to make sure that your goals are aligned with,
like, okay, if we wanna start a family,
I'm not gonna be a single mom within my marriage.
- Yeah.
- No, that's-that's literally what it feels like to me.
- Yeah.
- I have such a fear that, like, I'm gonna be 45,
never had kids, have an amazing career.
That would be fine if I didn't want to have kids.
- Yeah.
- There's nothing wrong when people don't wanna have kids.
- Yeah. - But I know I want that.
- Yeah.
- In some weird way, having a baby would heal me.
I feel like I have all this love to give,
and I don't have anyone to give.
- But, like, you-- yeah. Yeah.
- 'Cause I would give it to my mom.
So, like, I need to give all this love that I have
to something. - Totally-- totally.
- Yeah.
- So, you don't know this about me,
but I don't talk to my mom. - Oh, wow.
- Yeah, but now that I have a baby girl,
it is healing in ways that will come to you

How are things going this summer?
- Um, they're good.
I told you Mia has been coming to the house
pretty much every weekend,
but it's actually been really nice having her around.
- How are you feeling about New York now?
- I think I'll always have a place in New York.
- Right.
- But, like, in terms of where I see raising a family,
it's definitely gonna be with, like, more land.
- Right.
- So, I can at least have a couple cats and a couple dogs,
maybe a goat or a horse, and a cow, and a pig.
- Oh, you need a fence in your backyard.
- You had pigs. Why can't I have pigs?
You're so country. - Yes, I am, absolutely.
- Dad's side of the family is country.
You're, like, kind of backwoods. [laughing]
'Cause they had one pig. You had three.
- We did have a toilet inside the house, Ciara.
You know, now I haven't discussed with your dad
anything about who really owns the house.
So, you know, eventually, he will find out but--
- Well, I already know he's gonna be pissed
because I did it behind everyone's back.
- I don't feel like you did something behind his back.
I think it was something that you wanted,
and this is a way in which you needed to
make that purchase.
- He does now.
He doesn't know, but, you know...
- Yeah, he'll know now.
I knew my grandparents' house was gonna be up for sale,
but I haven't talked to my dad in, like, four years now,
and I just wanted to get the house fair and square.
I didn't want to jump through any special hoops.
So, I mean, I just had to find a real estate agent,
get an attorney, have my accountant make
a separate LLC,
have my accountant make a trust,
and then make up a name for the trust,
and then buy the house under the trust,
and then send my realtor to court with my dad
and his family, and they rejected my offer.
I put in another, and then I won.
I just think, in terms of Dad, like, I don't know.
Sometimes I feel like he, like, misconstrues my intentions,
and, like, I just don't know if we're in a state
where he'll actually understand my intentions.
It's, like, it's just, like, a new chapter in that house.
- Yeah, absolutely. - And it's, like, as I'm, like,
venturing into the next phase of my life,
it's, like, where your grandkids will come.
- Yeah.
- And, like, you'll spend time with them, hopefully.
- Right. - And, like, it's a place where,
like, we can have Christmas there.
We can have a Thanksgiving there.
Like, I do want it to be a home base,
and I know it's not, like, your parents' home,
but, like, hopefully, now-- - Well, it's-it's where you are.
That's, for me, what's more important.
- My relationship with my parents--
it's probably gonna always be layered.
It's probably gonna always be complicated.
But I... [voice breaks]
I really loved my grandparents,
and I hope that, one day, my kids can feel that
from my parents.
And, like, in that house, too, as well, it's, like,
maybe it's a dream. Maybe it's not.
I don't know.
But, you know, whatever the house turns into,
I still just feel really lucky and blessed
to even be able to keep it in my family.
- I know where you came from, and I see where you are,
and I'm just, you know, really proud of that.
Just keep-keep doing more. - Thanks, Shelia Miller.
- Yes, keep doing more, dear.

It's Friday. We're gonna sit by the pool.

- It's because I had a cold brew,
so now you all have to deal with me.
- All fired up. How was your week, C?
- Okay, so, me and Mia went to Lindsay's birthday lunch,
and I asked her about the text that she sent you.
- It was actually really thoughtful.
Like, he got Gemma a book about, like,
being a New York City baby.
- That's really sweet. - That's really thoughtful.
- Yeah, so, I felt like it deserved a thank you text,
you know. - Yeah.
- I see Lindsay Hubbard pop in, and I was like, "Oh!"
Like, oh, God.
I haven't had a text from her in almost two years.
- Yeah. - Wow.
- So, progress. - Oh, my gosh.
- That is awesome. - Which felt really good.
- Do you feel like you and Lindsay
could ever be friends again?
- I-I don't ever wanna say never.
- Yeah. - But, you know, who knows?
It was really nice that she invited me
to the housewarming.
You know, last week marks five years
that my brother has been gone, and it's always definitely,
like, a-- kind of an emotional time.
- Yeah.
- And I really appreciate you reaching out.
- Oh, my gosh, of course.
- And, like, Jesse had messaged me,
which was really cool, and Jesse wasn't even there
that summer. - Yeah.
- But he checked in.
Not what I was asking for anything special from anybody,
but it is nice to hear from your friends.
- Yesterday, I met up with Ben and Carl for a quick beer,
and, uh, yeah, I think Carl is kinda just going through it.
You know, it was the anniversary of his brother's passing,
and Kyle didn't text him.
Instead, like, Instagrammed about Lindsay's birthday.
- That's a really tough one.
- So, anyway, the last week has definitely been tough.
Not to, like, hog the conversation, but...
- On a lighter note, I met Sabrina
at the housewarming, and we bonded.
- Yeah, I do, like, I-- oh, so, I need to have--
I need to have a little chat with Amanda, at some point.
But coming off the back of Lindsay's housewarming,
Sabrina told me that they were talking,
and, like, just towards the end, she's like, "Oh, you know,
Ben has been great the whole time.
Everybody in the house thinks that he's in love with me,
but, apart from that, that's fine."
And she was kinda, like-- like, "Hold on. What?"
I don't understand where that was coming from.
Like, what did you want to get out of that?
It's at the end of the housewarming.
Sabrina and Amanda are having a really beautiful
heart-to-heart.
- I'm fully aware of what I'm going through,
and I love hearing other people's experiences, too,
and, like-- - Yeah.
- And then, according to Sabrina,
Amanda said this really off comment.
Sabrina's now upset.
Like, why are you saying that what--
this guy I really like is in love with you, not me?
Like, what are you-- like, why are you--
what are you doing?
It's frustrating 'cause, like, I was really happy
that they were getting along so well, and, like,
I want my friends to get along.
I have a great relationship with Amanda and Kyle,
and now this is all ----ing awkward.
Like, what the--
like, now we're not gonna be going out,
just the four us, like, hanging out anymore, are we?
'Cause of this. Like...

It just seems like it's a (BLEEP)--
