They were cold.
And I got them, and I was like, what's going on?
And I cried for, like, an hour.

When I drop Ryder off tomorrow, I'm gonna
have a conversation with her.
But she's very pregnant.
- She's very pregnant.
- Very pregnant.
- Very, and her emotions show it.
- And Ryder's birthday's coming up,
and I'm gonna have to miss it.
- Aw. - Aw.
- So you know I'm in the doghouse there.
- Yeah, you know you're in the doghouse, bruh.

I appreciate that, man. Thank you.
Yeah, bye.
- So who was that?
What are you doing? - Ketamine treatments.
- What?
- What the [bleep] is that?
- After all my years of talk therapy, I'm ready to dive
into something a little--
- Horse tranquilizer. - Don't do that.
- Sure.
- Is that what it is, for real?
- What does it do?
- I have no idea.
- I don't know.
- I do because I've been put on so many medications.
It's literally not even funny. - What does it do?
Does it, like, mellow you out, basically?
- I wouldn't say that, from my experience.
- I don't know too much about that, but he looking upset.
So he's on his wits' end.
- I just feel like there's little things that I
would like to just put to bed.
You know, I'll be really happy, and then
I'll be like, oh, Tyler. Oh my god.
You're really-- you know, just not feeling worthy enough
to-- to raise these kids.
- I can relate to their childhood a lot--
the dysfunction that they felt and the environment
that they didn't want to bring their child home to.
- Mm-hmm.
- That's why I say, like, the decision
they made to give their child up for adoption, it was like--
- That's hard. - Yeah.
- It's not an easy one.
All he knows is what his dad has showed him.
- Right.
- How can you look at the way that your dad was with you
and your sister and then look at the way that you are with
your children-- and seriously, you are more of a [bleep]
man than he ever will ever be.
- For real. - For real.
- But like, can we Google, like, what--
what that is? - Ketamine.
- Yeah.
- It induces a trance-like state
while providing a pain-relief sedation and memory loss.
- Maybe under medical supervision,
it's gonna work for him and--
- Yeah, I've never done anything crazy--
- I've just gone to a therapist.
- --besides, like, meditation.
- I've never taken no drugs or done
meditation or hypnotherapy, none of that [bleep].
- I do body massages when I'm stressed out.
I don't know.
Like, I see a therapist on Skype.
- I soak in Epsom salt.
- I take a hot shower. I don't know.
- That's kind of crazy, though, because I'm like--
- Honestly, let's be real.
The medical insurance sucks in America.
And I feel like whatever the [bleep] he
doing is rich people [bleep].
- Do you ever go on TikTok and you see someone
clean out the horseshoe?
And the horse foot is just there,
and they are scraping the [bleep] out of that horseshoe.
It's because they gave him a horse tranquilizer.
- Put me the [bleep] out.
- [laughs]
- Amber. - Indianapolis.
- Amber.
- I love Amber. - I do like her.
- We can relate in ways I didn't think we could.
- You still doing karate?
- Yes.
- How high can you kick?
High kick.
- Me.
[laughter]
- Ooh. - OK, baby.
- Whoop your ass.
- You know she an Indy animal.
- Did Leah ever do karate?
- I have no [bleep] clue.
- It's been a while now, right, since you've
gotten to see her?
- It's been a while since I've seen her.
- That [bleep] sucks.
- Oh, Amber. - Oh.
- She hasn't even answered any of my text messages.
So she's not gonna answer my phone calls.
- I would be so sad if Nova did that to me.
- I mean, I feel bad for her, but I feel like I've
kind of been in Leah's shoes.
- I wouldn't answer my dad's calls for a long, long time.
- Amber wants to be there, though.
- I don't think she's that good a mom.
- I like Amber. I love Amber.
- I think--
I've just seen a lot of clips.
Like, whenever Gary was holding her baby and she smacks him,
that's absolutely not acceptable.
Like--
- But as with us being on TV, you cannot judge people
for what you see on the TV.
- I would never smack somebody with my baby in their arms.
That's not OK.
- Honestly, like, but if it's like that on TV,
I wonder how about it was-- - Yes.
- --whenever cameras were not around.
- And also literally--
- But again, that's their life.
We cannot judge them for their lives because she's not
doing it now. Like, you know
- Literally, I don't give a [bleep].
It's not acceptable.
- A lot of people probably feel the same way about the things
that you've done, too.
- That's completely fine, and I'm not abusive.
And I can't say that about myself.
There is clips, and I take accountability
for what I look like. - No, understood.
- But I'm not abusive.
And she was very abusive to Gary.
- We already talked about, like,
therapy and stuff for Leah.
Just Gary wasn't for it at all.
- Yeah, he should at least let her go to therapy
because that's her mama. - Right.
- They all need therapy.
- Everybody needs therapy.
- Me, too.
- I think that would be good for them, honestly.
- Yeah, but Leah has to want it.
- Yeah, Leah definitely has a choice.
- Because even if she goes-- yeah,
if she's not open to it-- - Right.
- --and then it doesn't matter.
- Therapy is a good thing to get you
and your mother back together.
And to be honest, I want my daughter back.
- Oh. - Oh my god.
- That just broke my heart.
- That is so sad.
- She's so plagued by what she's done in the past,
and she hasn't forgive herself, and other people
won't let her forget it.
She'll be OK, though.
It might take some time.
- She won't give up.
Amber won't give up.
- I love that.
- Maci.
- Miss Maci.
- You've been seeing Dr. Ed once
a week for eight whole months.
- --Ryan hasn't, like, been there in a while.
- You don't call him Dad?
- Damn.
- I can't imagine, like, one day if Braeson's dad were
to come back in the picture and then still
continuing to, like, not try.
- Yeah.
It's like, why did you even come around?
- It would make me crazy.
- Was his dad not in his life when he was younger
or something, Bentley's?
- I think he was in and out.
- I don't think he was ever, like, great.
- No, definitely was never great.
- Yeah.
- Definitely never.
- I think as a kid, you just start to feel like what's
the point in me keep expressing these emotions
if the adults around me are gonna
keep doing the same thing?
- It's so sad.
- Why would Bentley want to put in--
forth effort when his dad is not?
- Ryan battled with addiction for a little while
and is in recovery.
So I think that's where the--
- The disconnect came from?
- Yeah, that's where the disconnect started.
- What's up?
- You know, Mom and Dad, you know,
had their little spat with Maci and Taylor.
- Yeah, this one will take a little bit to get over.
- Yeah, I'm sure.
- I'm sorry, but I do not like Ryan or his--
I don't like Mackenzie.
- The thing that bothers me about Mackenzie--
over the seasons, it just seems like she lacks sympathy
for Maci's point of view.
- Well, I don't understand how she can condone his behavior.
If I was her, I would tell him, you need to take
your ass to that therapy.
- I want it to be better, you know?
- He love that damn dog more than he loves kids.
Like, he puts more effort into the puppy.
- You know, if you've got something to say,
like, let's just talk it over in person and then be done.
- Right.
Well, just ask her right now to sit down
with her for Bentley's sake.
- OK. - Wait, what?
- Is she-- is she--
- Why is she doing that?
- It's your job, booboo.
- She can't lie about it if it's on camera
and she says no or whatever.
- So are they blaming Maci?
- Mackenzie--
- And then oh, we can prove this on TV.
What? - --get in the car.
Take Ryan to the damn therapy session.
- Free in the next week?
But my thing is, why is she reaching out?
Like, you're just the girlfriend
or the wife or whatever. Like--
- But she's trying, though.
- Do you know how mad I get when my dad is
always trying to be like, oh, well,
my girlfriend, my girlfriend?
I don't want to know that bitch.
I barely know you.
Stop letting her--
- Oh, but on the other side, though, Ashley, look it.
If Bar had kids-- and we know this.
If Bar had kids already, how you gonna be with Bar
and not check Bar about them kids?
- And you know what?
I would say, Bar, those are your kids.
You get on the horn.
- Yeah, but if he's not taking care of it.
- You call her. I wouldn't be with him.
I would not--
- You got your own kids with him.
- --I would not be with no man on this Earth who was
prioritizing me and my cooter and my kids
over his responsibilities.
Wouldn't be no cookie in the cookie jar for you because how
dare you?
[bleep]. - There you go.

This is how she want to handle it.
- And she wrong, so play.
[phone dings] - She got the text.

So her mom died, and then they went to Florida,
and left their dad alone? - It's a lot on him.
It's a lot on him.
- Damn.
- I think I've just finally in the last four or five
months realized, Josh, I'm never gonna get
to see her again, you know?
- Aw.
- Yeah, that's sad.
- Imagine being so in love with somebody and then them
just not being there one day.
- I could not imagine.
I don't know how long they were together, but losing
your wife to cancer, like--
- Literally, that would be--
- Or anything.
Just losing them.
- That's the thing I hate about love, though.
It's like we love these people only
to know that, in the end, when we let them go, it's gonna be,
like, the most painful thing.
If I never got to see Bar again, like,
y'all might have to partially check me into a loony

And then I'm gonna be back, but I
don't know how long I'll be back, maybe two weeks,

Hold-- - I don't have a set schedule.
- I get "The Challenge."
- I don't pick the schedule. - Hold on.
Hold on. Hold on now.
- She said put it-- pause that.
- Let's talk about all the fun things
we're doing prior to that.
- The reunion?
Work.
- My thing is, why does it matter?
- Because it's hard.
What do you mean, why does it [bleep] matter?
- Hard in what way?
- She has the daughter alone.
- So basically, he's gonna be leaving
in and out with no stability.
- Yeah, but he's-- it's work.
- It doesn't matter.
- Oh my god.
Him leaving them kids on her is work, too.
- Exactly, and she's pregnant.
- What kid is he leaving? He leaving one kid.
They splitting it up.
- And one kid is enough to drive you insane.
- What she meet him on?
- "The Challenge," I think. - Thank you.
Thank you.
She knew what it was when she met him.
- But listen here.
If I marry Obama and he--
- He's the president. - No.
And he has-- - He has things to do.
- That does not exempt him from being a father.
- But he's still a good dad, though.
- I don't give a damn-- - What does it matter?
He's still a good dad.
- --if you got to address the nation--
- No.
He's still a good dad.
He's still a good dad, though.
- I'm not saying he's not a good dad.
- Right, but I could see if he was never there.
But he's going to do work. Thank you.
- I don't think she--
OK, play.
- Calm down.

- I got your back, Cory.
I got your back, bro.
I got your back.
- Basically, we're taking about two
to three weeks out of the month to celebrate Cory's 30th.
Understood.
I just had to process that part.
- Oh.
- OK.
Do you really need to celebrate your birthday for two weeks?
- That's his right. - That's his business.
- Come on now.
We be celebrating all month long on our birthday.
Come on.
- You know, everybody deserves a birthday trip,
but I would be upset, just personally.
- Yeah. - I don't know.
I just-- - Honestly.
- --I don't care.
Just when you win, give me some money.
- Give me some money.
- So we're not partying for four months
while what am I doing?
Extra pregnant, extra big, extra tired
with extra heartburn--
- The heartburn.
- --trying to have a baby soon, chasing
behind a four-year-old.
- But her being pregnant is act-- it's not his problem.
I'm sorry. They are not together.
- You are sorry. - Play.
- They're not together.
She's checking him like that's her man.
- Oh, wait, wait, wait. - No, she's not checking him.
- Hold up. Hold up.
That's not her man? - No.
- She's checking him like that is her baby's father.
- That's not her man.
- Exactly.
- It's not his problem that she's
pregnant by someone else. I get that.
That's not his problem.
- Mm-hmm.
- But it is his problem that he's missing out that long
and expecting her to just figure it out.
- What about Ryder's birthday?
Because that's between--
- It's not looking like it's gonna happen.
- Dang.
- But yeah, he's going to his birthday.
- Right, but not your kid's, no.
- If he knows he's going on "The Challenge" for a couple
of months, he should sacrifice his own birthday
to spend as much time with Ryder before he goes.
And he can celebrate his 30th birthday after "The Challenge."
- Or he could take the baby with him on vacation.
- Exactly.
We sacrifice over here when we're parents.
- For you not to be able to attend Ryder's birthday,
you're a piece of [bleep]. - Yeah, yeah.
- I don't get to control the schedule.
- Piece of [bleep].
- I don't get to control the schedule.
- Piece of [bleep]. - Piece of [bleep].
- Yell it.
- Say it one more time for the people in the back.
- Sign language.
- So I'm gonna ask you to leave.
- OK. - You can--
- That's fine. Whatever.
Thanks, Chey.
- Goodbye, Cory.
- You take care. - Buh-bye.
- Get out. - Buh-bye.
- Deuces.
- Bye.
- Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
- Oh, [bleep] you, Cory.
- You gotta do what you gotta do, sis.
- Feel that.
We love you Cory, but this scene made us say--
- [bleep] you, Cory.
[laughter]
- We're right there with you, sis.
- Guess who's on my TV.
We have a group chat with Gary--
- Yeah. - --Gary's face.
- Oh, yeah.
- Let's take a selfie but, like,
this way so that he can see his face on the TV.
- OK.
- All right, let's send it to him.
- Tell him we are talking [bleep] about you.
- Hey.
- I'm home.
You got some explaining to do.
- I love Gary and Kristina's relationship,
and Gary is so funny.
- So I talked to Leah last night about seeing if she
was open to going to therapy.
I know she's against it.
- See?
He said she was against it.
It was never him.
- Therapy is gonna help Leah regardless, Amber or not.
- I wish I would have done that when I was a kid, like,
been in therapy and, like, been able to deal with my traumas--
- Yeah.
- --as an adolescent and not as an adult trying
to repair my inner child.
- I'm not gonna sit here and make Leah go somewhere
because it'll help Amber.
- Sometimes as the parent, you've
got to make that first move. - You have to take it.
That's why you're the parent.
- Like, I know this might not be what you want,
but in a year from now, it might be what you want.
- And how can I encourage Leah to do something that she
doesn't want to do if her mom is not
doing what she needs to do?
- Gary is such a [bleep] great dad.
- Mm-hmm. - Really.
He really is.
- I'm just listening to him talking.
- She has to be receptive--
- Exactly.
- --to wanting that relationship with her mom.
- She has to be receptive, Kristina.
- No, I don't like that. - Yeah.
- I feel like that's not her mom.
You should be open to anything to help that kid--
- Reunite with her mother.
- --reunite with that mother because she could have good
intentions, but she could feel like she
don't want Leah to get hurt.
She-- she understands being a kid, but at the end
of the day, if the tables were turned,
would she appreciate that? - Right.
- That little girl.
- You can't punish the lady forever.
- Like, if there's going to be any kind of reuniting
or reconciling, it's gonna have to be like, hey,
Amber has really dug deep and really
did what she needed to do to be the mother she needs to be.
- Has Amber apologized to her?
- I think so.
- I haven't watched it.
- The thing is, my mom-- like, my mom came back at 14.
She's apologized to me a thousand times,
and there's things that I will still just never forget.
You know what I mean?
And it's just-- it's something that you deeply, deeply
have to want and work towards.
- And I'm just gonna give it some time
and see what Leah feels about it.
I want to protect Leah.
I want to make sure that she's not gonna get hurt.
- Speaking from a kid's perspective,
me having been that kid, I would
have appreciated y'all just left me the [bleep] alone.
- A kid don't understand-- - Right.
- --because as many times as I had to go to therapy,
I didn't want to go.
- Well, I sure didn't want to, and y'all made me.
- Of course, yeah. - You needed it.
- Thank therapy for the emotionally
aware adult that I am now.

- Catelynn.
- Their house is cute.
- OK, here we go.
- The way that they're doing this with a therapist,
a medical doctor, like, it's not gear--
we're not gonna go out in the field to have
a good time with friend. - No, you guys are--
- Hold on.
They're going out into a field?
- No, they're not. - Oh.
- They're not doing that.
- I was like, wait.
- Hold on.
This got crazy.
- --down for, like, a doctored session.
- This is healing. - Yeah.
- That's what makes me want to do it.
- You know when Tyler's into something
because he starts screaming. - He's passionate.
- He starts yelling.
- I want to silence this self-critical part
of my brain, and I think this is
why they diagnosed me bipolar.
- Me, too.
- Me three.
- She looked at us crazy.
Yeah.
- I'll have these highs, and then it's like I'll
get these huge riffs of crash.
- Me, too.
- That's scary.
- And it's not just sadness.
It's like oh my god, you're a piece of [bleep].
You don't-- you don't deserve these things.
- Man, you can't be trusting all these diagnoses.
- Mom, please.
- Huh?
- Please.
It's literally a chemical imbalance.
- It's society.
You know, I think everybody can agree
that they have negative thoughts at some point.
- I can't do antidepressants.
I-- pills scare me.
I can't do any of that [bleep].
- Literally me.
- If you take medications and it works for you,
freakin' hallelujah.
I envy you.
- I feel this on the max right now.
- I wish I had that light switch that--
that-- that-- solution, right?
- Yeah, just oh, hey, I eat this every day,
and it helps my issues.
- Oh, [bleep]. - Oh my god.
- I'm the same.
I can't take any medication.
- I can't.
- I haven't even started mine yet because I'm so scared.
- I've just never had anything work, and that is hard.
- I know for a fact that that does not work for me,
so my whole thing is like, I got to--
I just got to explore all options that are out there.
- I love that he's exploring his options because there
are so many options.
- Literally.
- Because it's been, like, six years for me
since I went to that treatment facility, but everything I did
was building blocks to be where I'm at today.
- It is.
- Expressing myself differently,
working through things that I once thought was [bleep] funny
or, like, processing things, and picking and choosing
what worked for me.
So it's nice that Tyler is exploring
his options because there are so many different--
- Yeah.
- I want to just get myself totally clear
so that way, I have more capacity to love my children
differently, better.
- Take care of yourself and you're better to take care
of your people you care about.
- Everyone you love, yeah.
- I recognize the imbalance, and I
need to just get it balanced.
- That's good.
That's the first step.
- Yeah, recognition is a big thing.
- He'll be all right.
- Wait.
So them horses must be really good, like, you know.
- High as a kite? - Yeah, and like--
- I don't know.
- Do I go to the vet, or do I go to the regular hospital?
- This coffee cake is smackin'.
- Bussin', bussin'.
[laughter]
- It's all right.
It's a whole nother one right there.
- Period.
- So go ahead and have the rest.
- All right, let's see if Cheyenne
has calmed down from her little pregnancy brain.
[upbeat rock music]
♪♪ ♪♪
- Hold Zach's hand, and hold Baz's hand,
and then pray for us.
- I feel like I need to bow my head and pray with them.
- Oh.
- Excuse me.
- Oh.
- Thank you for my mom, keeping us healthy.
- Yeah, right. Mm-hmm.
No coronavirus here. - Mm-hmm.
- Amen.
- Yeah, because we vaxxed and waxed.
- Amen, Ryder.
- That was so cute.
- Amen, girl.
- We're safe. - Nobody got coronavirus.
- We don't need no vaccination. - Nobody got coronavirus.
[laughter]
- I love Cheyenne's dad.
He's really nice.
- Her dad calls Bar "Double Up" because Bar
got two tattoos doubled up.
He calls Bar "Double Up."
- So Chey, it's Friday night.
- They're really having a feast right now.
- I want some, girl.
- I want some. - I want it--
- The butter? The butter?
- --right now. Feed me.
- Why is Ryder not with Cory?
- Because Cory is filming The "Challenge"
reunion from the past "Challenge" he just did.
- Oh.
- OK.
- But he's staying a few extra days
because he's turning 30 while he's in New York,
so he wants to party for his 30th.
- He's trying to have fun.
- Right.
- That's Zach.
- He's at the age where he's not ready to just chill.
- Right.
- But hasn't he been partying--
- You got a child, so--
- Now-- no, now you have two kids.
- Not the sister going off.
- Coming back from New York, he might have three.
[laughter]
- Ooh!
OK, Pops.
- Long story short, he's more than likely going
to miss Ryder's birthday.
So that's when I got upset, which turned into me politely
asking him to leave my house.
- She said politely.
- It wasn't very polite when I look back.
I just-- it was like, [bleep] you.
Get the [bleep] out of my house.
- I already taught you, cuss somebody
up without using a four-letter word,
it's a lot more effective.
- Y'all heard that, right?
- I'll practice it because I don't--
- How do you do that? - I'm trying to figure it out.
- Yeah.
- So you're gonna apologize for cussing at him?
- Mm-hmm.
- Because nobody really deserves that.
- Her sister looking like hell nah, he deserved it.
[laughter]
- She really is.
- You guys are both good.
To think that you guys aren't-- are
gonna live argument-free, you know, that's not gonna happen.
- Preach, Pops.
- That's so true, though.
We're gonna disagree. - Yeah.
- Especially if you're coparenting.
- Jeremy works a lot out of the town,
but we find common ground.
- If you agreed on everything, you'd still be together.
- Right. Right?
- Clearly don't.
- But we don't agree on everything.
- You clearly don't.
- ♪♪ No, baby, I don't want to fight ♪♪
- That text was not genuine.
- I feel like it was. - No!
- It's not genuine.
- Because we saw it play out.
- It wasn't.
- I think it was genuine, but it's not her responsibility
at the end of the day.
- Nothing she could ever do or say
will ever change my mind about the type of person
that she is.
- There's no respect for this extra person when there's
no respect between the two people
who should have the relationship.
- Right.
- That's it, right?
- Well, I agree with everything you just said.
- Ooh. Ooh.
- She's one of the biggest [bleep] stirrers there is.
- Ooh. - Yep.
- You have to say it.
- Actually, it's shocking that she thinks
that she'd be the first one that I'd
want to build a bridge with.
- No, ma'am.
- That's why I was, like, confused.
I was like, why would she text?
Because they don't have that with each other.
- Absolutely not.
I'm glad I didn't respond.
- I feel that. - I feel that.
- That's what being an adult is, though, like,
but also, you don't have to fake friend people.
- Yeah.
- Sometimes it's good to wipe your hands clean of people.
- Yeah, for real. - And keep moving forward.
- Family or not, for real. - I don't know.
I don't get how you could, like, say you love your kid
and just not put in the effort.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- At the end of the day, it sucks
because the only one that's gonna be affected by it is--
- Is the kid.
- --the kid.
- I don't plan on having any communication with them.
- But I feel like you got to have
a little bit of a communication because y'all share a kid.
- Well, her thing is, he is not making
no effort for the therapy, and he knows that he has to do
it to get them in a good spot.
- Yeah.
- And you're intentionally not doing it.
Where-- where are we gonna go from here?
- Damn.
- This is my first time watching an OG
episode in a minute, and-- - Me, too.
- --when you get into, like, your 20s, like, in your early
30s, people start to get sick.
People pass away.
- Yeah.
- Or your kids grow up or whatever.
A brief synopsis, this [bleep] is sad.
- Yeah. - Like--
- I did not realize that it was this deep like this.
- I be bawling my eyes out every week.
- For real, though.
Like, what the [bleep]?
[somber guitar music]
- Aw.
- Oh, no.
- Oh god.
I'm about to break down.
- This soundtrack, no.
Straight tears.
- She was pretty.
- It's so sweet that they're getting together and doing
a birthday party for her mom.
- You all right?
- Yeah, I'm OK.
- It's OK.
- Stop it.
I'm too much of a softy. - Me, too.
- Seriously, my eyes are watering.
- Stop it.
- Those are all the kids, right?
- Mm-hmm. - Damn.
- Party time.
Woo-woo.
- I feel like she's handling it well.
- That man is going through it.
- But I love the positivity because they're
very much positive.
They're not, like, looking at this negatively.
- Yeah.
- Like, they're, like, trying to shine a positive light
on the situation.
- Yeah, because had it been me, I'd be like, why me?
Why my mama?
- For real.
- I know she's up there just looking down and beaming, so--
- About took me out.
- Ah!
OK.
All right, let's sing.
- Oh, no.
And they're singing happy birthday.
- Brittany about to cry.
[together] ♪♪ Happy birthday, dear Mom ♪♪
♪♪ Happy birthday to you ♪♪
- She got the vocals.
I will say that. - So sad.
- That was so sad. - Aw.
- It's like because you try to be happy
and you try to celebrate, but--
- None of that [bleep] makes you feel better, honestly.
- Yeah. - No.
- Yeah. - It doesn't at all.
- All right, group hug.
- That was heavy.
- Happy birthday, Mama.
- Aw.
That's so sad.
Are you crying?
- I stayed so strong.
- I thought for sure she was gonna cry.
- No, I said not the lashes.
[laughter]
No, for real.
- I love Cate and Ty.
I really want to see how this ketamine therapy works.
- I really do, too.
- If he follows through and--
yeah.
- I'm very intrigued.
- What's up, honey?
- I know Jordan's coming over tonight.
He's gonna spend the night tonight
to take you to your ketamine appointment tomorrow.
- I'm excited. I'm nervous, though.
I'm kind of nervous. - I'm nervous.
- What are you nervous about?
- Well, I just don't know what--
I don't know how I'm gonna feel.
- You finna to feel good.
What are you talking about?
- And your main goal is what, now just to, like, go in there
and work on to help yourself feel more worthy about things?
- Feel like you don't really deserve this house.
You don't deserve your life.
You don't deserve this little life you got.
- Damn.
- Aw.
- You deserve it all, Tyler.
- Like--
- Do you think that's the bipolar?
- I don't know. I don't know.
- And it runs in your family.
- I think he's so terrified to turn out like the role models
that he had that weren't good.
- He does want to end up like them.
- Right, right.
It's like he's trying so hard to be
this, like, great, great dad, and
he's just beating hisself up.
- Shh, shh.
Watch this.
- I do feel like you do have your bouts of anger that come
out of nowhere all the time--
all the time.
And you know, it's like kids can feel that, too.
Like--
- Does that worry you?
- I mean, a little bit, yeah.
I don't want them growing up thinking that their dad was
always angry or--
- Yeah, I don't, either.
- Growing up as a worrisome kid, like,
being worried about your parents and not just being
able to be a kid, it's like-- turns
you into a worrisome person.
When you would see, like, your mom go to jail out of nowhere,
your dad go to jail, like, trauma happen that quick, then
your whole life, you're thinking like, I know this
quick, my life can change.
- Yeah.
- You know, so it's probably that fear.
- Yeah, and that's where the anxiety comes in and [bleep].
- Anxiety.
- But the thing is, is that, you know,
people can be aware of it, and do things
to fix it, and not have to suffer,
and end up like your grandpa did.
- And they have each other, too.
That's the biggest support system right there.
And the way that they've stood by each other through it all,
I really admire it.
- So what made you, like, want to do ketamine in particular?
- You can tell she's not all the way for it,
but she gives him that space to be comfortable
and let him experience it.
- Yeah, yeah.
- Is it a psychedelic?
- A psychedelic?
- Yeah.
I mean, they-- and they-- that's what they said.
- And that's the scary part, though.
You don't know how it's gonna affect you.
- I don't know. - Google it.
It says, "Ketamine-- ketamine is
a medication primarily used for starting
and maintaining anesthesia."
- Oh.
- That's another state of mind.
- That's scary.
- I think it's just to get you to a state to where you let,
like, all of your worries go, to get
you out of your own mind.
- You know, I'm not too sure about the horse tranquilizers.
I don't know about all that. - I can't do that.
- But if it's for you, it's for you.
- Yeah.
- Well, it's scary.
- It's scary?
- I wouldn't-- I don't know. Yeah.
- Like, what's your biggest fear?
Like, what do you-- what do you think, I'm totally gonna be,
like, a crazy [bleep] ketamine mother-mother-[bleep] or, like,
you know what I mean?
Like, what do you think I'm gonna do?
- Literally this.
- Yeah.
[laughter] - No.
I mean--
- Like, what are you afraid of?
What are you-- if you're afraid at all?
- I'm glad Cate's worried because I was worried.
- You walking out of there and being like,
I don't want to be with her anymore.
- No, babe.
- And they've been through so much.
- I know.
- And plus they split up, remember?
So I think she's scared he's gonna, like,
get enlightened or help and then be like--
- [bleep]
- --oh my god, I want a divorce or something.
- I want to get the hell out of here.
- Right. Like--
- Yeah. - That's a lot.
- You know, why we have to be born with these
[bleep] up brains of ours.
- It makes us human. We're human.
- Did they film him going and getting this ketamine [bleep]??
- You want to call him?
- Like, is this filmed?
- See if he answers.
- I got a question.
- So I got a question.
- He's not gonna answer.
- Your call has been forwarded.
- He forward your [bleep].
- He just got a treatment of that ketamine,
and he is vibing.
- Good vibes only.
- If I got a personal trainer, I would definitely
go on "The Challenge."
- You know I got that upper-body strength.
- Yes. - You know I got that--
- I'm gonna give that to you. - --you know I got that--
I'd do "The Challenge" if it was something that was like--
- No.
- --I would do it.
I would take my ass in the gym, really get together for, like,
a month or two ahead of time.
- Mm-hmm.
- You know, and get myself together--
- Eat clean.
- --because I would want that money.
- That's when I would actually eat kale is
if I was go on "The Challenge."
I would buy kale and eat it.
Only time you'll catch me eating that vegetable.
[laughter]
So--
[gentle music]
- See, that was no time.
- Girl, to you.
- On TV, right.
- Well, hello there.
- Hi, bud.
- Oh, she happy today.
- You know, I think we need to talk about--
- Yeah, I definitely think we need to talk.
We didn't leave on good terms, but--
- No.
- Definitely seem nervous about this talk.
- I should be able to get my points across without cursing,
or calling you names, or asking you to find the door.
- It's the hormones, baby.
It's OK.
- I do feel really awkward apologizing to you because I
honestly think that I was-- - I know.
You're not very good at it. - --always right in situations.
- Ooh.
- At least she can admit that.
[laughter]
- You're just so annoying.
- See, this-- that's why-- annoying, like the whole,
all right, now you're done.
- Shut the [bleep] up.
- Just accept her apology.
- So I do apologize for that.
- I appreciate it.
- Yeah, she was definitely the bigger person.
I applaud her for that.
- In this situation, I would have
been like, where was I wrong?
Yes, I cursed at you, but beyond that?
- I feel like in the back of her head,
that's what she was thinking.
I still am pissed at you, but I'm
gonna be the bigger person.
- Yes.
I'm gonna apologize for me. - Yeah.
- And for Ryder.
- For my senses and my mind. - Yeah.
- Mm-hmm.
- I decided to change Ry's party so that it's
at the very beginning of April so that there's no chance
that you could miss it.
- And that is what coparenting looks like, you guys.
- Period.
- Someone chooses to be the bigger person.
- Somebody has to. Someone has to to.
- But then you find common ground.
Like, you're like, all right, like, maybe I was being petty.
Maybe I-- you were being petty.
Like, maybe-- maybe we both were, but at the end
of the day, it doesn't matter.
- Oh, Jesus!
Thank you. - Aw.
- That was so sweet.
- For you to be doing that, like, that's huge, Chey.
- See? Easy peasy.
- Good job.
- Right.
That was a good solution.
- Stressing that man out for no reason.
- Get out.
- No.
- She said now get out.
- Well, perfect.
Look, this is the perfect example of compromising.
- Now get the hell out.
- We don't have to be mad at Cory.
- I would have sent him the bill, though.
- Yeah.
- I compromised for you, so compromise for me.
- Miss your "Challenge."
- They got "The Challenge" money.
- Some black card. - He be on "The Challenge,"
but I don't think he ever won a "Challenge"--
like, won "The Challenge," right?
- He be on there, but did he win?
- Is he a champion on Challenge?
I don't [bleep] know. - I don't know, but he be
working out like he is, so--
[laughter]
- Got his ass. - He never won.
- All right, we're gonna cut that out.
- Never.
- Let's go, Amber.
- OK, yes. This is juicy.
- Oh. That's my doctor.
Hello.
- What are those dolls on the back?
- For real.
- You know, I'm trying to figure out a way
to fit Leah into a situation that she
just doesn't want to be in. - Amber, don't cry.
- She's trying to hold it in so bad.
- She is, and she's trying so hard.
- Oh, she's trying. Yes.
- Oh, it's gonna make me cry because I
know how hard she's trying.
- The hardest decision I had to make
was going to the treatment facility.
So I understand.
Like, my kids don't hold it against me.
It wasn't two years.
I was gone for a month.
All I could think about was my kids.
Were they gonna remember me?
So imagine, like, two years and then coming home to this.
- Literally.
- You know what I mean?
- Woo.
- But she made that decision for the betterment
of her daughter.
- Right.
- And now she's getting attacked for it.
- I can't take away my past.
- I feel like she's constantly repaying for her past.
- Yeah.
- Like, refeeling it, and, like,
it's like she's trying to move forward,
but it's like the past is still lingering there
and [bleep] up her present.
- That's the worst, like, feeling like--
like you can't-- it's nothing you can do about it.
It's already happened.
- Yep.
- You've made some really tough decisions for your kids
that people will never understand.
- No, but we're gonna take that past
and we're gonna build on it.
- I wouldn't be alive if I didn't make certain decisions.
And Leah hates me for it.
- She doesn't hate you.
She just doesn't understand it yet.
- I just want her to understand that everything I did
was to be alive for her.
- It's gonna come around, though.
- It is.
It is.
- If I wouldn't have went away and--
- You can't take away your past.
- You can never take away your past.
You cannot change your past.
- I think back to my addiction, and struggling,
and all of that being played out on TV--
Amber's, too.
Not only do you have the world, like, judging you, but even
your daughter.
Like, that's the people you need support from the [bleep]
most.
- [bleep] hate my [bleep] mental illnesses.
Like--
- Amber.
- We love you, Amber.
- I love you, Amber.
- It's gonna get better. - You're gonna be OK.
- Everything's gonna work out.
- I wonder, does her daughter watch these?
- I wonder.
I don't know.
- Probably not yet, but one day.
And like, she's gonna look back and see how much her mom
really did-- like she just want so much better
she really does.
- But like I told Amber, once you tell her the worst,
all she can do is respect what you're doing
now because it's so opposite.
- Yeah.
- So this is what I'm gonna keep doing.
I'm just gonna keep trying.
I'm just gonna keep reaching and praying.
- Damn.
- You know what?
Maybe OG ain't that boring, after all, because this
[bleep] got me on my toes--
- Yeah.
- --between the ketamine, and the fights,
and, like, the heartbreak.
- I don't know much about them, but I think
they're the bad people, so--
- Oh my goodness.
- Kids grow up fast on TV.
- They do.
- Right.
I could have swore they just had her.
- You love to cry.
- Not love to cry.
- Leave me alone.
- She love to cry.
- I'm not desensitized like y'all.
- There's so much more to know.
I'm like-- I feel like we just got into stuff that I'm like--
- Can we watch another episode, please?
- Well, I'm sure happy this [bleep] is over [bleep].
- Damn.
- Because it was wearing my emotions.
- It is.
Poor Amber.
