[narrator] Previously on sMothered...
Let's do some questions.
We have the microphone.
[Gabriella] The pageant is right around the corner,
and what worries me most...
[Catherine] That's what lost her the pageant last year.
You never know what I'm gonna say.
[Catherine] Ugh, that's for sure.
Gab, what's the right to bear arms?
What is the right to bear arms?
Because my arms are really hairy.
If they ask a question like that,
you pull the fire alarm.
No marriage, no vagina.
You don't have to live together
to figure it out if she's the right one or the wrong one.
I wanna be with you,
but I don't wanna be with your mom.
You're not dating my mom.
I am so dating your mom, dude, it's not even funny.
If you want it to just be me and you,
we have to get our own place.
-What's this? -I want a butt.
These are butt pads.
Next surgery I really want is the BBL.
The Brazilian butt lift.
Look at her, she's got a great ass.
-This is a nice ass. It's-- -[TJ] Eh.
-"Eh"? Really? -[TJ] Yeah.
[DeLeesa] Are you seriously feeding him?
We cannot be in a room together
without her getting an attitude with me,
her being disrespectful to me.
You just wanna nag. Stop already.
I'm not nagging.
I have a question I wanna know.
-Whenever-- -Okay, nah, nah. Enough.
* Do you want it? *
* Baby, I got it *
* What you want, want, want What you want, want, want *
[Catherine] Okay, oops.
Look at these shoes.
Gabriella and I got them in New York.
We have matching.
So, we're here at the pageant,
and I'm super nervous and I'm very anxious.
Oh. Some underwear. [chuckles softly]
Most families don't stay in the same hotel.
I mean, most families just drop the kid off...
Actually, which I think is bizarre,
most girls just drive themselves.
Tomorrow, Gabriella's gonna be in green with the swim suit.
So, I'm in a similar green underwear.
Luckily for Gabriella,
she gets to show up at her pageant
with her mom on her arm, matching.
I'm going to, uh, just make sure that I can charge my phone.
Because this is my only...
[Lauren] Yeah, how are you doing not being able to see Gab?
You have to keep me distracted.
The pageant rules are
the contestants cannot leave their rooms,
they have to stay with their chaperones,
they have to stay with the other girls
and they cannot see their families.
But she is allowed to call me.
I am on pins and needles waiting.
When the phone rings, everything stops.
-[Sophia] Hmm. -[phone ringing]
-Is that her? -[Lauren] Yeah.
Oh, my God.
[phone stops ringing]
Oh, no, it's not her.
Oh, gosh.
Don't text me.
I don't wanna hear from anybody but her.
Do not text me.
* 'Cause I'm so confident *
* I'm so confident *
* Baby, I got it *
* You know that you want it *
* 'Cause I'm so confident *
-* You know that you want it * -* Yeah *
You can't even talk to her, she's in rehearsal.
I know, but she may like, go to the ladies room or something
and then call me.
Today is a big day for Gabriella.
For all of us, really.
It's the first full day of the pageant.
They have rehearsals all day long.
After the rehearsals,
they start to get ready for the first preliminary competition.
She said that she was gonna call
as soon as she gets in the room.
So, make sure that phone is on.
-Where is it? Where is it? -That's your job.
-Give me my phone. -[Lauren] It's right here.
[Catherine] Oh, my gosh.
The preliminary competition starts with the judges' interview.
And that is just the contestant with the judges.
It's a very private interview,
it's usually three to five minutes.
[sighs] Oh, my God, there she is.
After that,
the elimination comes the next day,
where the pick the top 12
and then they pick the top five.
After the top five contestants are chosen,
they get the top five question.
So, yeah.
The judges' interview can make or break a contestant in the pageant.
[Lauren] Yeah.
That was exciting.
Let me send my mental telepathy right to Gabriella.
I'm thinking of her,
I'm looking at her,
I'm picturing her having a wonderful interview
and I know the judges are gonna love her.
And the questions aren't gonna be too hard. [chuckles softly]
Here she is.
I see her now.
We got this.
My girl.
We got this.
[Lauren] Thank you.
[Catherine] I also want-- Oh, look.
That's my daughter, she's in the pageant.
-[waitress] Ooh. -I know, right?
-[waitress] She looks pretty. -She looks pretty.
[waitress] She looks gorgeous, wow.
[Catherine] You know what, I have an idea.
[Sophia] Oh.
-Let's put her right here... -[Sophia] Oh. [chuckles]
Oh, that's... Okay.
...so she's right next to us.
[Lauren] It has literally been 12 hours
-since Cath has seen Gab. -[Sophia] Yeah.
[kisses]
[Lauren] When she's not with her,
she's just like, constantly like,
on her phone being like, "Why isn't she texting me?
Why isn't she answering my phone calls?
Where is she?" Tracking her.
-[phone beeps] -[Catherine] Ooh!
-We'll be the-- -It's her!
She gets kinda kooky when she hasn't seen Gab for a while.
[laughs]
Guess what she just texted.
[Lauren chuckles softly]
[Catherine] "I could really use one of your foot rubs right now.
LOL."
[Catherine chuckles]
[phone beeps]
I wish I was rubbing your feet right now.
In general, I try to stay calm,
but I'm very, very nervous.
If Gabriella does not do well
in her personal one-on-one interview with the judges,
there is a 100% chance that she won't even make it to the finals.
And if she didn't make the finals,
that would be devastating.
So, now is the hardest part of the day.
We have to just...
wait.
* So I been, so I been told I am so bold *
* Just a bit *
[Alyssa] Hi, you guys, my name is Alyssa.
-Nice to meet you. -[Alyssa] So nice to meet you.
-So nice to meet you. -All right, are y'all ready to go for the tour?
-[Scott] Let's do it. -[Sunnie] Sure.
-Tonight, we are house hunting. -House hunting.
[Alyssa] This right here is the two bedroom, two bath model.
So, everything in this unit is brand new,
'cause it's completely renovated.
I am 100% house hunting behind my mom's back.
I love my mom,
and I know she's gonna be upset with me,
because she's gonna think that I'm hiding something,
which I am.
This is just really small for me.
-Like, this alone could just be like, my makeup room. -Mmm.
I just want more space
and I can have a guest room and then like, a glam room,
or like, a gym or something.
Or an Eva room?
No.
-Wow. -[Sunnie] Mmm-hmm.
I was laying down the law. [laughs]
I'm putting my foot down on the Eva situation.
That's the one thing that I don't want,
is Eva living with us.
* So I been, so I been told I am so bold *
* Just a bit *
* So I been, so I been told I am so bold *
* Just a bit *
[Sunnie] How was your day?
Uh... [sighs] It's good.
I'm, I'm trying to find some more, um,
apartments and houses for us to look at.
-[Sunnie] Oh, nice. -Yeah.
You know... [chuckles]
House hunting has not gone that great.
And we have not been able to find a place
as nice as the complex that I live in now.
[Scott] I wish there was an available apartment here.
[Sunnie] Me too.
But I think the waiting list is like, a year.
I would tell Scott, "Just move in here."
But my apartment now is a little small.
[both chuckle]
[Sunnie] If there was a three bedroom that came available here,
I mean, that would be the ideal situation.
But hardly anyone ever moves out of here.
I know that today didn't necessarily,
you know, we didn't find our dream spot.
But now, we have a starting point.
-I'm excited about that. -[Scott] Yeah.
And I can't wait to take all these first steps
and do things the right way, and...
[sighs]
...try not to piss off my mom.
[Scott laughs] Yeah.
Have you spoke with Eva today?
No.
So, you're saying this is one whole day no Eva talk?
[Sunnie] No Eva talk.
-[laughing] -[Scott] Yay.
-[kisses] -That means Eva's not comin' over, huh?
-[kisses] -[laughing] No.
[laughing]
[kisses]
[Sunnie] I would love to be able to share
this exciting moment with my mom
and I'm so excited to be lookin' at places
for Scott and I to move in together, but...
it's just gonna cause a lot of...
pain and stress
and disappointment...
to my mom.
Because we're moving in together before we're married.
And that is the one thing
that she does not want.
Just because I'm not ready to...
run to the altar right now
and I have a certain way that I, you know, that I would prefer to do it.
Um... that's why we're doin' this
-right now. House shopping... -[Sunnie] Yeah.
...apartment shopping, that is...
that is my way...
of saying that I'm okay with it.
[Sunnie] I do feel like Scott and I are getting closer, and...
even though it violates my mom's beliefs
and her trust,
I do feel like Scott and I moving in together
is the path to marriage and ultimately,
that's what my mom wants for us.
I'm just scared to tell my mom
because she turns into a crazy person when she gets angry.
You know, the gremlins when they eat after midnight,
that's literally my mom when she's angry.
She's a different person.
[Scott] Come here, baby. Mmm.
[kisses]
An Eva-less night.
[laughing]
Eva-less night.
Today is mine and DeLeesa's baby shower.
[Cheryl speaking]
That was over the top.
I forget that he really does have a mom.
Sorry. 'Cause I'm your mom.
* Hands up on the floor*
* Dance-off, here we go*
* Drop down, take it low*
So we're on opposite sides of the room.
-[India] Okay. Mm-hmm. -All right?
So it's a clap. Walk.
Kick. Back. One step.
[India laughing]
Today is mine and DeLeesa's baby shower.
Baby number three is comin'.
And Trevor and I decided to do a mother and son dance for the occasion.
Nobody else can dance like we do.
-No. -Nope.
* Hands up on the floor*
* Dance-off, here we go*
* Drop down, shake it low*
* Jump up, get some more*
One, two,
-kick. And we're gonna hop. -[India] Got no balance.
[Trevor] That way.
[India laughing]
You already know this is a mess.
[Trevor] So my mom and aunt have flown in
for the baby shower and I don't think
they've been at the house since mom moved in.
-You know, I mean, this mom. Not, like... -No.
...my mom. This mom.
[softly] I'm the mom. The mom.
-One, two, three. Just hold? -Boom. It's just hold. Right. Yup.
-[India laughing] -There you go.
Okay, we made it that far.
-That's part one. -Okay, that's good.
-[Trevor] Okay. We got part one. -Hoppin'.
-Let's see it again. -I don't understand what y'all got goin' on
-over here anyway. -Yeah.
It's a dance.
Son and mother-in-law dance?
-[Trevor] So? -[India] Yeah.
Okay.
-Okay. -That's so weird...
when you got mom standing right here.
[India] Uh-oh.
What? But like...
she lives with us.
What's the... she lives with us.
My name is Cheryl
and I'm Trevor's mother.
He's my only child.
Trevor's my one and only.
Interesting.
[laughing]
I'm...
-He never danced with me like that. -[Trevor] Why you doubting?
-But I forgive you, son. -[India] Uh-oh.
-[Angela] Okay. -[Cheryl] I'm not jealous.
[Trevor] I mean, it's not like India's trying to replace my mom.
I'm not trying to have my mom be replaced.
It's just that she's here. It's...
it's really nice to have that mom figure around that
cares about what's going on with me.
-Hello. -Hi.
-[Trevor] Here we go. -[Cheryl] How are you?
-[Trevor] One, two... -[DeLeesa] I'm okay.
-I'm hot, I'm tired. -Ready?
-[Cheryl] Tired? -What are they doing?
Do they do this all the time?
All the time, guys.
-[India laughing] -[Trevor] Hold on. Hold on.
Toni, come on. Let's go.
'Cause we actually have to get ready
to go to the baby shower.
It'll be nice to have some help.
Just saying.
-Just saying. -There's help here.
Mom, can you go help?
-Yes, I will go help. -[Trevor] Thank you.
-Please. -I will help.
[Trevor] Please.
And, please, I do hope you guys get it together.
This is the first time Trevor's mom
has actually been around to watch
this weird, crazy relationship
between Trevor and my mom.
I'm wondering if she's actually feeling a little bit jealous.
I would think that she is confused
as to how their relationship transpired to this level.
-Feel good? I feel good. -[India] I feel good.
-One, two, one, two. -[Trevor] All right.
[both] Boom.
-All right. Let's go get dressed. -[India laughing]
Baby shower time.
* Come in and catch my vibe *
* Na, na, na, na, na*
* Come in and catch my vibe *
[Trevor] All right, y'all. Let's go, let's go, let's go. Come on.
All right.
[DeLeesa] I'll ride with you.
No. I gotta drive mom.
-[DeLeesa] What are you talkin' about? -I gotta drive Mom.
Baby, come on.
[Trevor] I'll see you over there.
-So I have to drive? -[Trevor] Ma, come on.
-[Trevor] Yes. -[DeLeesa] Of course. Of course.
[exhales]
[Angela speaking]
Well, listen, she's been there.
-Yeah, exactly. I don't know, I feel like... -She's been there...
long enough.
Yeah. [chuckles] Long enough.
They... hang out,
they go to bingo.
They exclude me even if I wanted to hang out with them. Like...
Oh, you're not even asked.
I'm not even invited or nothing. No.
-Cra... -[Angela] Oh, I didn't know it was to that extent.
Yeah, I know.
[Cheryl] Based on what I've seen,
it seems as though
Trevor and DeLeesa's relationship is...
in trouble actually.
Because it's too much of India.
I don't think it's worth jeopardizing their marriage
for DeLeesa's mother. No.
[indistinct chatter]
Hi.
[laughs] So cute.
[exclaims]
I'm so excited. Like, we've got a DJ,
a bunch of food, we got
so many games planned.
So I think it's gonna be a fun day.
[DeLeesa] Toni, can you look at the camera?
Tori, look at... look at the camera.
-Can you... can you... -Sorry.
[India laughing]
[emcee speaking]
[Trevor] Uh-oh.
[emcee speaking]
[India laughing]
[both laughing]
Oh, my goodness. Look at that.
[emcee] Two, three...
-[Angela] Yuck. -[emcee] ...four, five.
That was over the top.
[India laughing]
That was... crazy.
-[emcee speaking] -[India laughing]
-[DeLeesa] Here you go. -Wow.
[Angela speaking]
[both laughing]
No.
Look at 'em.
I think my sister, Trevor's mom,
is a little jealous.
Feel a little left out.
And I don't think
it's the same type of relationship with his mother.
[Trevor] Uh, we're gonna take a second because
my mom-in-law and I have a dance...
-[crowd exclaiming] -...that we are going to surprise y'all with.
[crowd cheering]
Are you ready?
One, two,
three, come on.
[crowd cheering]
You ready? Let's go. One,
-two. -[India laughing]
-[exclaims] -Come on.
We got it, Ma. We got it.
Come on. One, two, three.
[India laughing]
[Catherine] I think the relationship they do have
is a little weird.
I don't... I don't know. It's just...
something I wouldn't prefer my mom and my husband to have.
Especially when I don't have a relationship with her, I think it is weird.
-[crowd cheering] -[Trevor] That's it. Okay. Thank you, Ma.
-Thank you. -[India laughing]
-[India] Can you say you love me? -[Trevor] Thank you.
[giggling] All right.
[shrieks] [India speaking]
-Oh, my... -[Trevor] Oh.
[DeLeesa] I could never...
in a million, gazillion,
ka-pa-trillion, bazillion years
see one of my daughters act like this
with their in-laws.
-[chuckles] We tried it. -Thank y'all. Thank you.
[indistinct chatter]
Not in front of me.
Mmm-hmm. I don't play that.
No. [chuckles, swishes] No.
You know your mother-in-law is cute.
I'm bein' sarcastic.
Just gonna pretend like you didn't say that.
Are you mad at me, son?
Don't have nothin' nice to say,
-don't say anything at all. -You're absolutely right.
[Trevor] I don't have to stay there.
I'm gonna get some cake and I'm gonna go sit over there
away from the haters...
-See ya later. -...and the negativity. See ya.
I feel like my mom took...
a lot of opportunities
at the baby shower just to throw shade.
Why're you acting like that?
I felt like it was just super petty.
Far as I'm concerned, this is my son.
She's not around.
So I really didn't even think about it.
And when, uh, she does come around,
you're like, "My mama's here", I'm like, "Your mom?"
And then I forget that he really does have a mom.
Sorry. 'Cause I'm your mom.
You okay? Right.
[Trevor] Oh, my God.
[DeLeesa] Does it feel like my baby shower, does it feel like hers?
At, like, every event
-she takes over like this... -But you know what?
You gonna have to put a stop to that.
I'm gonna have to put my food down...
-Yes, you are. -...and stomp her out, right?
Because you said every event, I would not allow it.
But the thing is, because it's, like, two against one,
-so then it's, like... -Okay. You tough.
I know.
I tried to have that conversation with my mom
and Trevor about her getting
the [bleep] out of my house, right?
But...
we had no resolution done.
And even his own mom and aunt can't get through to him.
It is going to be a very serious talk
where he understands
that it's either my mom leaving
or him and my mom leaving.
Because...
I just can't take it anymore.
[clicks tongue]
No more.
I'm gonna tell you something.
I already have a consultation scheduled
for my Brazilian butt lift.
-And I'm gonna see-- -What?
No, that pisses me the hell off.
[Mary] Brittani!
What, Mom?
Whoo-hoo, roller skating.
You wanna go roller skating?
Are you, like, the Energizer Bunny?
Yeah, I have a lot of energy. I'm ready.
I'm ready.
Whoo-hoo!
-[woman] Oh! -I got it.
[groans]
* Ah, ah *
* Na, na *
You look like you got fried.
Look at how red you are. Look at your arm.
Let me go get the cream.
-Where is it? -[Brittani] It's in the fridge.
[Mary] Brittani, TJ and myself went to the nude beach
and there was another argument
and things are a little bit tense
between Brittani and I.
Whoo-hoo, this is fun.
So how I ease the tension is,
you know, I'll throw on a pair of roller skates.
-Crazy. -I like roller skating.
-What is it? -[mimics crashing]
-Get comfy. -All right, move your toesies.
[exhales]
[Mary] I mean, she does get a chuckle out of me
-because I'm the roller skating queen. -Mmm.
I'm so much fun.
Mmm.
[Mary] Can we think about going roller skating together?
[Brittani] I'll think about it.
So, what do you think?
-Doesn't that sound like fun? -I just... I just said...
-Okay. -...I'll think about it.
I don't know why you gotta think.
Why can't we just go to that tomorrow?
Mom, I can't go tomorrow.
Okay, but... why?
I'm gonna tell you something.
The reason why I can't go
is because I actually talked to a surgeon.
I already have a consultation scheduled
for my Brazilian butt lift.
-And I'm gonna see-- -What?
You didn't... You didn't ask me to go?
[Brittani] I've been wanting a Brazilian butt lift
since I've lost weight.
And the reason why I booked a consultation without my mom
is because I know
she is already unaccepting about the surgery.
I wanted to do it for myself
to show her that I'm very serious about this
for my well-being.
Britt,
when you had your tummy tuck done
and we went to see that other doctor
because I was gonna have my breast augmentation...
-Mom. -...I was with you. Why did you do that?
-That's sneaky. -Because you would be telling me,
"Don't do it."
[Mary] No, that pisses me the hell off.
You tell me everything.
Every time I open up my mouth...
"Oh, let me just argue."
Why can't you just talk to me calmly?
You're hurting me.
[tearfully] But I'm so tired of being yelled at, Mom.
You're always yelling at me.
I'm sorry, okay?
-Can you please stop? -I said I'm sorry, okay?
-Okay! -I love you.
I love you.
This doctor, how did you find him?
TJ told me his family member
-got surgery from him. -You're gonna listen to TJ
about a doctor over me, your mother?
-Mom... -The one who created you?
Gave you life?
I'm so tired of this guilt-tripping game.
Brittani, my thing is why...
Why do you want this?
I just want a bubble.
Like, something that fits my body.
I don't want a wide ass or...
too big. No, I just want it
to be perfectly aligned with my body structure.
That's all I want.
[Mary] So the last surgery that Brittani had,
I am the one that went to the consultation with her.
I was the one that made sure that the surgery went good.
That's my job as a mom.
Okay, I'll tell you what. I'll tell you what.
You know my concerns.
-Yes, I know. -Okay?
And I'm understanding you want a nice, round, bubble butt.
But we have to make sure that this guy is good.
Let me just go to the consultation...
because I got a list of questions.
-Okay, that's fine. -Okay. Good.
If Brittani is determined to do this,
I'm gonna make sure she the best doctor to perform it.
GIve me a hug. I love you.
I'm sorry I upset you.
Because we will always be together
and have plastic surgery together.
-Okay. -And then we'll... We'll get this done.
-We'll get it done, okay? -Okay.
-I promise we'll get it done. Okay? -Okay.
You know, if we're not happy with him,
we can...
-[Brittani] Find another doctor. -Find another doctor.
-Yes. -[Mary] All right. I do love you.
I don't want anything to happen to you.
If something happens to you, I die.
So the craziest thing just happened.
We have a bigger unit available
in our complex.
So Scott and I decided to go ahead
and jump on it and sign the lease.
However, my mom is taking over my old apartment
and she's excited that we're gonna be neighbors.
But she doesn't know that I'm moving in with Scott.
-Mom. -[Eva] Yes?
-Guess what I just did? -What?
-I got the key to the new apartment. -Oh, my goodness.
-We get to be neighbors. -Yay, yay. My goodness.
Yeah.
[Sunnie] My mom lost her home due to Hurricane Harvey.
[Eva] And I've been living with my other daughter Sarah since then.
But, honestly, my mom has been at my house
-literally 24/7. -Yeah. [chuckles]
[Sunnie] So when, uh, the apartment called
and said that there is a bigger unit available,
I was like,
"Why don't you take over my apartment
that I currently live in now?"
Before anybody sets foot in there,
we have to go in there
and we have to go in there and sage.
-Okay, yeah, absolutely. -So we can walk over there right now.
We are gonna be living
as close as we can to each other
without living under the same roof.
The apartments are both on,
like, the left hand side of the complex.
You know, when people say,
"I can throw a rock at their house", like...
-Right. [chuckles] -I literally can, but I won't,
-'cause I don't wanna... -That is the...
...break one of your windows. [laughs] So...
-I'm so excited, we're going to be neighbors. -I'm so excited.
[Eva] I cannot really believe it's happening.
It's going to be like my own house
next to Sunnie's in the same apartment complex.
I didn't even thought this is going to happen one day.
Oh, my goodness. Look how big it is.
I know.
Look how much space there is in here.
Oh, I know. I read this. Yes.
We're not gonna be bumping butts anymore in the kitchen.
Yeah, I know.
-Oh, you have a nice size pantry. -Yeah.
-That's nice. -I know.
[Eva] The energy in here feels off.
-We need to start saging. -Oh, yes.
Absolutely.
[Sunnie] Now I just need to tell Scott about this.
He doesn't know?
No, I haven't said anything to him.
Seriously?
Are you trying to hide it from him or something?
All you need to worry about is how you're gonna decorate
-your new place, okay? -Yes, okay.
I would say every corner of the house,
it has to be blessed with sage.
So I created a double dilemma.
Scott and I are for sure moving in together
and I do not have a ring on my finger yet.
So I have to tell my mother, hey, we're gonna move in
together and we're not married yet.
Problem number two is that I have to tell Scott
that my mom's gonna be moving into my old place,
which is down the hall from us.
Oh, yeah, that smells really good.
I don't know how to tell them this because
I don't want to jeopardize a potential marriage proposal from Scott,
but I also don't want to upset my mom.
Ah, I just hope I don't end up in a one-bedroom...
by myself.
Brittani and I do surgeries all the time, so, like...
-Whoa, all the time? -Yeah, and I wanted to be here.
-I'm her mom. -Okay.
And I have some questions for you.
[all cheering]
I am very, very, very nervous.
They call my name.
I walk up, being all graceful, when inside I'm like, "Damn,
oh no, oh no."
I'm really looking forward to this.
It's like the olden days.
Remember my tummy tuck and everything?
I know. I remember that.
Do you remember the hard time I gave to the surgeons?
I know.
This is why I have this question sheet.
You have to deal with me.
Did you notice that question down there?
Oh, yeah. The two-in-one special?
You have your butt done. I could have my boobs done.
I know.
-Hi. -Hi.
-Hello. -Hi.
-Hi, I'm Michael. -I'm Mary, Brittani's mom.
-Nice to meet you, Mary. -I'm Brittani.
Nice to meet you.
My mom and I are going to Miami for my consultation
for my Brazilian butt lift today.
Since my mom is so against the surgery,
originally I was going to go by myself.
[Mary] I've realized that she's going to do the surgery
with or without me.
So I want to be there.
Brittani and I do surgeries all the time, so like...
Whoa, whoa, all the time?
Well, yeah, and I wanted to be here.
I'm her mom.
-Have you had a BBL? -No.
-Oh. -No.
I've had several boob jobs.
Okay.
And I have some questions for you.
-Go ahead. -Okay.
Bring them on.
Well, I can't see, because I'm almost 60, so...
-Let me put these on. -You look great.
Thank you.
So, let's see what we got here. Um...
What does the procedure actually involve?
So she'll be completely asleep,
but I make little incisions in the areas of the body
where I'm gonna take the fat out from,
and I suck out the fat, then I put antibiotics in it,
and then pump it back into the butt,
into the areas that she wants it.
Fat could be hidden behind muscle.
So you know, it's not behind the muscle.
It's right on top here.
Everything you can grab here is fat.
All this and this and this is fat.
Okay, well, that's interesting.
-Yeah. -Huh.
Okay, will there be any visible scars?
They're tiny.
-Is it really? Okay. Um... -Yeah.
Could we go skating?
-Skating? Yeah, sure. -For instance.
-Sure, just don't, uh, yeah, roller skating. -What if she fell on her butt?
No, you're gonna have to take a week off
-from all the fun roller skating. -Yeah, okay.
Um, I want new boobs.
Okay.
Do you offer a two-for-one special?
You'd have to talk to the girls in the front
that deal with the financial stuff.
-And this is the big question. -Okay.
Can I be in the surgical room with her during her surgery?
No. No, no, no.
-I do have an observation room. -Okay.
'Cause Brittani, Brittani's the love of my life.
-She's my best friend. And... -I understand completely.
-You're a good mom for coming. -Thank you.
-I appreciate it. -You're welcome.
-It's nice to meet you. -Nice to meet you, too.
Thank you. All right.
[Mary] I feel so much better since I talked to Dr. Michael,
and he gave me good answers.
Thank you, ma'am.
I feel better.
I'm really happy that I brought you with me.
I would have never felt comfortable moving forward
if you didn't come with me.
But you know what? I'm glad I'm here.
I'm supposed to be here for you.
And I'm always going to be here for you.
[Brittani] I needed my mom more than I thought.
Yes, I could do things independently,
but nothing is the same when she's not with me.
That's the special bond that we have as mother and daughter.
And I never want to lose that.
Where does TJ come into all of this?
TJ is fully capable of taking care of me, too.
He wants to help out.
He's supporting?
Yes, he's very supportive.
Okay.
I could reassure you that 100% I wanted to do
this surgery before I met TJ.
Listen, I could have done the other route where
I wanted boobies.
If TJ liked boobs, like big, juicy boobies.
-You'd be getting them right now. -No.
Oh, yeah. Just like the butt.
No.
You don't need a butt. You don't need boobs.
You don't need any of that.
And that's what really... [grunts]
Every time I think about it, I get mad.
I can always stuff my bras with socks,
make it look like I have big boobs.
I can't do that with my butt.
Your boobies look pretty big today.
Yeah, it's because my bra, I stuffed it with socks.
-Did you really? -Yes.
They look big.
They look good.
It's socks!
-They look... You did. Oh, my God. -They're socks.
Why would you put freaking socks in there?
[Brittani] I'm very grateful that my mom is accepting of my surgery.
And I'm thinking right after I'm recovered from surgery,
I'm gonna be telling her about my engagement.
I really hope she accepts it, but it's not gonna stop me
from being with TJ.
Well, I'm glad that we had this talk.
Sometimes we argue because of stupid people
sticking their nose in the middle.
-You know? -Nobody can be really in the middle.
That means a lot to me.
-[host] Come on up, Gabriella Vigorito. -[all cheering]
When Gab didn't win last year, Mom was, like, devastated.
Pressure's really on for her that might not be able
to pick Mom off the floor if she even stumbles on her words once.
* Think I'm a little Too excited *
* And there's no way I'll deny it *
Okay, don't forget the special knock.
-Okay. -I'm gonna be right over here.
You're staying in the elevator?
-Yeah, I'm gonna wait right here. -Oh, okay.
[Catherine] It's the pageant finals today.
Last night, Gabriella texted me,
and she did really, really well
in her interview, so I'm assuming
she's gonna make the top 12.
I want to make sure Gabriella starts her day off perfectly...
Hurry up.
...so I am sneaking her the celery juice.
The hard part with the pageant is Gabriella and I
don't see each other,
and you have to have the celery juice fresh
every morning upon waking.
-Shh, shh, shh. -Hurry up.
I don't want to get caught.
That celery juice is the secret to our success.
* I'm feeling ready *
* To step into The spotlight now *
* I'm feeling ready *
* To step into The spotlight *
When Gab didn't win last year, Mom was, like, devastated.
[Sophia] And then we went on, like, vacation the next week,
-and Mom was still mad at Gab on the vacation. -Still hung up.
-It was probably, like, three months after. -Three months.
This year, pressure's really on for her
that might not be able to pick Mom off the floor
if she even stumbles on her words once.
If she loses the pageant, it's, like, her losing the pageant,
not even, like, Gab losing the pageant,
'cause they're one and the same.
-[all cheering] -Here we go.
-There she is! There she is! Whoo! -Oh my God. She looks so good!
[Catherine] I think Gabriella is flawless.
She looks beautiful.
When she comes on stage, you just feel an energy,
a great vibe.
And I think it ties into our life together.
Gabriella Vigorito, Miss Shoreline USA.
[all cheering]
And I believe that not only with the pageant,
but everything else that we do together is going to be
a work of art, just like her.
Let's hear it for our girls. Who are you rooting for?
[all cheering]
One of these women is going to be your next Miss Connecticut
and will go on to compete for Miss USA.
Let's get started.
Jovana holds a bachelor's degree in fine arts.
Christina is a registered nurse.
I am very, very, very nervous.
[woman] There she goes.
Put your hands together for Miss Shoreline USA, Gabriella Vigorito.
[all cheering]
You know when you ride a roller coaster
and you're, like, going up and it's like high highs
and then it's like really lows and then like high highs.
It was like that like heart beating like adrenaline.
That's like the feeling.
Gabriella is a cosmetologist at an award-winning salon.
Miss Shoreline USA, Gabriella Vigorito.
Nice.
Next up, we have evening gowns.
Carla has three bachelors of sciences
in biology, chemistry, and nursing.
Sarah holds a master's degree in applied psychology.
She is currently an NFL cheerleader
and a track and field coach.
There she is.
Miss Shoreline USA, Gabriella Vigorito.
[all cheering]
Oh, my God.
-Oh, I just saw her. -That dress.
-Did you see the dress? Oh, my God. -The queen.
[Gabriella] Right when I went out on the stage for the evening gown competition,
I have never felt more like a goddess.
Watch this. Watch this.
-[all cheering] -We did it!
She was flawless.
Her posture was beautiful. Her walk was beautiful.
I felt so proud and so connected to her.
When she's on stage, I'm on stage.
I mean, we are in the same gown.
I know.
And we know that I'm wearing those green underwear.
[whoops]
This is our top five from Miss Connecticut, USA.
Beginning with Sarah Barrett, Miss Milford.
[all cheering]
Up next, we have...
-Gabriella Vigorito. -[all cheering]
Yes! Yes!
That's right.
-Hello. Yes. Yes. -Queen!
Of course my Gabriella made the top five.
She was perfect.
And now there's the top five question.
I am most nervous about the top five question
because that's what lost her the pageant last year.
I'm very, very nervous about it.
How does social media affect women's self-image
and the way that they view themselves?
The worst part is you have to stand on stage
while the other girls are answering their questions.
So I'm standing there, heart's pumping,
and girl one goes out to answer her question.
I think it's important that we recognize that all that
we see online may not be what's appearing in reality,
and take that opportunity to change the script
and be more honest, unique, and vulnerable.
[all cheering]
And I'm standing there waiting, and then she nails it.
I'm like, okay, cool, cool.
And so now it's my turn. They call my name.
Come on up, Gabriella Vigorito.
-[all cheering] -Yeah.
I walk up, being all graceful, when inside I'm like,
"Damn, oh, no, oh, no."
In that moment, I had to block everything out.
I was thinking maybe this blue thing.
Don't wear anything too sleazy. It's a baptism.
We had a little bit of a spat the other day
about my diabetes.
I feel like it was your fault.
Why was it my fault?
Because you did not tell me what was going on.
If there's something to worry about, I'll let you know.
I don't believe you.
I'm hoping that we can just get past this.
I need my mom out by the time this baby comes.
So two months.
I don't realistically think she can be out of here in two months.
I think that is too short of a window to give her.
Either she goes or y'all both can go.
Okay, so it's time to announce the winners.
[Catherine] It's make it or break it time.
Gabriella is only steps away from winning the crown.
The next Miss Connecticut USA is...
We have to achieve it.
I don't think there's even an option of not.
I just wanted to talk to you because I'm moving in
-with Scott. -It's our apartment.
Are you [bleep] kidding me?
What, are you going to be, like, a slut or a...
-Are you serious, Mom? -Yeah. Why are you laughing?
-I don't even know what to do anymore. -It's not funny.
I swear.
Are you, Mom, are you [bleep] serious?
