- I got a phone call from your dad.

He's coming for your birthday.

I see Devoin coming in and out.

It's causing a lot for Nova.

And like, now she's in therapy.

She basically was telling the therapist

that her dad shouldn't have left Florida.

- Are you gonna talk to Devoin about this?

- Yeah.

- Now that you are, you know, sober,

does it feel good to be able to be there for Bentley?

- If he ever needs me, I'm here for him.

- You and Ryan, I know you guys have had your little,

you know, up and down.

- It's gotten better, but I feel like there was just, like,

a lot of stuff that just kind of has been pushed to the side.

I've been thinking, we ought to go hang out

and just kind of clear the air.

So you want to go golf tomorrow?

- Yeah, I'll go golf with you. - All right.

Let's do it.

- How's school?

- I'm on leave. - OK.

- I can't keep my head on straight.

- You know Granny has got to take a job.

I'm gonna be on a cruise for a long time.

All right, see y'all later.

- It's just you and me again.

- I've just been having anxiety with the divorce.

- What you doing? - Not a damn thing, apparently,

for the next four months.

I have to start school next semester.

What the [bleep] am I gonna do?

- We are trying to get pregnant.

It's definitely taking longer than what I thought.

- Good news, there are eggs in your ovaries.

We'll do another ultrasound in two and a half weeks

to see if you're ovulating.

You have lots of sperm.

But they weren't swimming.

If someone's smoking a lot of marijuana,

we're gonna want them to stop that.

- OK.

- I feel like as women, we always just think, OK, it's me.

Like, my body is not allowing my body to get pregnant.

But it takes two people.

- All right, we have four embryos.

But we are choosing to transfer two

because if you transfer two embryos,

there's an 80% chance one of them sticks.

- I might be knocked up next time you see me.

- So it's been a few days since my embryo transfer,

and the doctors told me to wait 12 days for my blood test.

And we can tell you for sure if you're pregnant.

But I can't wait that long.

After everything that you've put your body through,

the waiting game is pretty brutal.

So I'm very tempted to go and take an at-home test.

IVF has been one milestone after another,

and I just did the last big milestone.

So this is a very big deal.

And I thought, why not celebrate?

We're gonna have some friends over,

eat some cupcakes, play some games, and laugh.

[line ringing]

Hey.

- Hi.

- OK, so I'm at the pharmacy, right?

And I'm buying pregnancy tests.

- No, I think I'm gonna take it tomorrow,

because today's a little too early.

Every hour I wait, I'm slowly dying on the inside.

- Aw.

- So tomorrow, we're having, like, an embryo party

just to celebrate it happened.

We're having, like, egg and sperm cupcakes.

- Yeah, I think--no one knows I'm gonna take the test.

And I'm not telling anyone for a while

until I'm kind of out of that, like, scary zone.

But I think if it says negative,

then I will just, like, cry for a week.

- But even if it's negative, that doesn't mean

you're actually not pregnant.

That can still--

you can still have a false negative tomorrow.

Try to relax. - Yeah.

Easier said than done. - Yeah.

- I do have my hopes up, but at the same time,

I'm also cautious about it.

- This is half of our embryos.

So if it doesn't work, we start the cycle over.

- We try, we try, we try.

- But it's a very big financial burden

'cause you have to repay for everything.

But I think I want to test tomorrow.

I just can't handle it anymore.

She's like, all these things play a role in it,

We do this for you and you.

Always.

- OK. - And the food was fire.

- Mac and cheese. - Thank you, Mom.

- You're welcome.

- Love you.

- Where's Devoin?

- I think he stepped outside.

- Hey, hey. - What's goody?

- I'm glad you're out here 'cause I wanted to talk to you

about Ms. Nova.

- Sorry.

- What's going on?

- So did I ever tell you that I put her in therapy?

No? - A while ago.

But it wasn't, like, consistent.

- Yeah, now it's consistent.

She's been going every week.

They did, like, a-- an assessment,

a evaluation just to, like, see what's going on with her.

And they diagnosed her with a few things.

And this paperwork, I want you to have it

just so you can go over it.

But basically, in here, it's saying how Nova--

you leaving affects her so bad,

like, really bad.

Like, she wants you back home.

And then also, in there is stuff about me, too.

Like, she wants me to spend more time with your family.

That's why I set this all up.

- She wants you to bridge the families for the most part.

- Now that you have everything and you know everything,

what is D gonna do?

- Hi.

- Yo.

- Mom pissed me smooth the [bleep] off, like.

- What the [bleep]? What she do?

- So yesterday, you know, I had to go to court

for the divorce, right?

- Yeah.

- So I ended up getting there late.

So, of course, the lady, she's like,

we can't recall your case.

You need to go refile the default divorce.

Remind you, I've already been waiting three months

for this court date.

So of course, I'm irritated.

But Mom's like, I don't understand

why you're irritated.

- Thank you!

Like, just give me some support on that!

Just feel me a little bit.

- I don't know.

Never got in the courtroom!

Anyways, Mom's about to come over to talk.

Pray it goes well.

I don't know, I might be cooking

my whole own Thanksgiving meal.

[bleep].

- Oh, my God.

[tense music]

[doorbell chimes]

Intrude.

- What's going on? - Hey.

Not much.

- What's going on with you, girl?

What happened yesterday?

What--what's going on in your head?

- Nothing. I'm just annoyed.

- Why?

- Why shouldn't I be annoyed?

- But to the point--

to that point, no.

- You were failing to understand in that moment,

I was irritated.

- Yeah, but you're irritated,

and this should not affect me.

I really didn't see how frustrated you were

over something I saw to be so minute.

- But that's your problem.

You seeing my anger as minute is your problem.

- That's my responsibility, to make sure

that whatever I've got going on doesn't hurt you or affect you.

And I'm asking for that same--

- But how many times do you say,

I don't want to talk right now, I'm irritated?

- Well, then that's fine. That's fine.

- Or you walk away. - Or at least that's not--

- Villainize me for doing something

everybody [bleep] does.

Everybody gets irritated. - Oh, Ashley, what I'm ask--

but if somebody is there for you--

- I am there for everybody else, too.

- And so am I. - Who am I not there for?

- So am I, Ashley.

- Who am I not there for?

- I love you. I gots to go.

This is the energy that I don't want.

I don't want this. - Me, either.

'Cause if I'm not there for somebody,

I really got us tallied up

and see where the [bleep] I was lacking.

People ask me to do [bleep] all the [bleep] time.

And the moment I'm not in the mood to kiss ass,

people are [bleep] upset.

Your emotions are not my [bleep] problem.

Who do I not show up here when I was just

raising my little sister for months

'cause you decided to take your happy ass on a boat?

Like, you don't have another kid

that needs to be taken care of, a minor child.

And what do I do once again? Step in.

Do I get a thank you?

Do I get a, you're probably [bleep] tired and broken?

I don't get nothing.

But I have to walk on eggshells for everyone,

and it's so [bleep] exhausting.

It's so [bleep] exhausting, bro.

[sobs]

- I understand why you left.

I support It, you know?

But at the same time, it's tough to see her sad and down.

And now hearing this, is this, like,

motivation for you to make plans to try to come back?

- I mean, it's a lot to process.

It's a lot for me to figure out, honestly.

I dropped everything I had here and went there.

I would literally have to do the same thing again

and come back here.

You know, like, I can't just go home and snap my fingers

and be back. - Mm-hmm.

- But I mean, I definitely noticed change in her.

She stopped writing me,

and I know she got her phone on her.

- Yeah. I asked her.

I was like, I see that your dad texts you

and, like, how come you don't write back?

Is that your way of telling him that you're angry that he left?

And she was like, yeah.

I didn't know she was going through all that.

It hurts.

- I understand both parties

and what they're going through and how they feel.

Like, what do I do now?

- One party is more important than the other,

and that's Nova.

- Yeah. - Let's just be real.

- Yeah.

And it's up to us parents to try to help her heal

and all the mistakes that we've made and--

- I got to figure it out ASAP

before she just say--

- Yeah.

- Know what I mean?

- We want to prevent that from happening.

- Right. I appreciate you

for telling me this 'cause now I know.

- All of Nova's information is on here.

Like, her therapist, her doctors, all that stuff.

- OK.

- A weight is lifted off my shoulders, for sure,

being able to tell you this

'cause it was a lot of information

that I was sitting on.

I think this was the first time

we had a really good conversation.

And it didn't end on a bad note,

and it was more positive.

So now we just got to wait and see what he does

'cause I told him everything.

I did my part, and now it's time for him

to do what he has to do.

- Hi, honey. - Hello.

- How was your day? - It was good.

I got a hole in one. - No, you didn't.

[laughter]

You and Taylor played golf? - Yeah.

- Any sticky conversations or--

- No, not really.

You know, Taylor's always been there for Bentley,

and, you know, I told him that I appreciate it.

And Taylor told me that, you know,

even when we didn't get along and all that

and everybody was arguing, he said that, you know,

he was always--

always wanted the best for me and Bentley and everything.

So I thought that was pretty cool.

- Well, I'm proud of you.

Are y'all gonna hang out again?

- I mean, I'm sure we'll all hang out again.

- We all need to go bowling or something.

- You ain't gonna be bowling [bleep].

We'll bowl your ass down the thing.

- Yeah. - Golfed a little bit?

What was more fun, the talking or the golfing?

- No, it was fine. It was all good.

Ryan had quite a bit to say about his addiction

and how he was in the past,

and he was like, I couldn't imagine--

I wouldn't have wanted to deal with me, either, so.

- That's...good. - Yeah.

He put--he put a lot of it on him.

- First time for everything.

It's really nice to see Ryan, like,

where you can actually, like, talk to him.

- Yeah.

- And understand, too, that you didn't have

to show up for Bentley and me.

But you did.

You didn't just throw in the towel and say [bleep] it.

- ♪♪ You say goodbye to my past ♪♪

- I think it's important that Ryan and Taylor finally spent

some one-on-one time together.

Because let's be honest, Taylor and Ryan,

they ain't doing [bleep] they don't want to do.

So they had to have wanted to do it for it to happen at all.

It was a true first step for, like,

them genuinely moving forward.

I never thought it would happen,

but better late than never.

- Is Jeremy going to the procedure?

- Yeah.

We were there for Addie, and that's all that matters.

- Ryder started to not feel good,

and I needed to bring Ryder to the hospital.

- Trying to track down Luis to sign that paper for consent

so that Stella can travel.

I don't know how you're feeling about your dad coming over.

- I don't know.

- He's here. - He's here?

- This is the third time that she says

she does not want to see her father.

- The last conversation could have used

emotional intelligence from you.

- She can kiss the blackest part of my [bleep] ass[bleep].
