[Yung Joc]
Previously
on "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta"...

You're pathetic,
that's what you are.

I lived in a shelter,
I've been in a group home.

I've been from juvenile to jail
every single year of my life.

As soon as you try to change,

mother[bleep] just
like keep coming at you

with the same
old [bleep].

[Stevie]
Tommie, you're gonna be okay.
Don't cry.

[Scrappy]
If I'm giving you my mom,

I want her to always be happy.

And most of all, I want her
to stay out my business.

[Momma Dee]
I ain't got no lovemaking
going on.

You ain't been paying
all the bills.

You can get some loving now
but you wanna--

I'd rather have the money.

I'm just trying
to tell you I love you.

Okay.Know what
I'm saying?

This is not the answer.

[Tammy]
If that's your woman,

then you need to show
her the foundation.

Bam... will you marry me?

Bam!

You say yes?

You just had a baby?

Three months ago.

Whose is it?

Kirk Frost.

Oh, ho-ho [bleep].

She said, "Kirk,"
and we was like...

"Kirk who?"...
"Kirk who?"

Shut up.

You know
I'm a married man.

What would you be
doing [bleep] me?

You knew that.

Don't try to flip the script.

So you ain't never
[bleep] her?

No.

[Stevie]
I'm in the gym
the other day, boxing,

I get served with some papers.

[Man]
"Steven Jordan..."

You've been served.

You gotta take
a paternity test.

I knew I couldn't avoid
dealing with this forever

and now's the time
to face the music.

What's up?

You tell me.

I cannot believe
that I have not seen the man

that I've been
with for six years

during my whole pregnancy.

And the only thing that
he can do is run around town

and act like
he's not my baby's daddy.

I got your letter.

What are you gonna do about it?

I never run away
from my responsibilities.

[Joseline]
You say she wasn't
your daughter.

You say it online.
You said it to me.

When did I say it?

Am I making this up or not?
You don't remember saying--

I don't remember
saying that.Of course
you don't.

I understand,
you've got enough kids.

You might not wanna
be in her life.

So I don't expect
anything else from you.

But I don't trust you
and don't believe anything

that comes out
of your mouth because--

[Stevie]
You don't trust me?

Stevie...Yes?

I have not seen you
in how long?

We was together for six years.

[Stevie]
Almost.

And you act like
we never had anything.

[Stevie]
Joseline and I were great
back when we were good.

But I'm not gonna
be disrespected.

First she was running
around town taking pictures,

you know, with all type
of dudes, playing games.

And when she didn't get her way,
she went on social media,

attacking me, my character,
the mother of my child,

telling all type of lies.

Meanwhile, she wanna know
why I think this ain't my baby.

I'm not a bad guy here,
but I've got my doubts.

I only served you with that
paper for you to come around.

If you wanna take the test,
I can retire that paper.

If you wanna come to the baby
shower, you're welcome.

I'm having the baby January 9th.
If you wanna come, you can come.

Stevie, it's not easy
having a baby by myself.

I never wanted that for you.

And for you to say--

[Stevie]
I never wanted that.

That [bleep] hurt me.

Our relationship
was crazy at the end.

I would not--
I don't give a [bleep].

I would never lie about
who my baby daddy is,

and I have not
laid with anybody.

And it hurts that
you would do that.

It hurts that you would
do that to your daughter.

Don't get
the baby all upset.

I'm about to have a baby

and I have not
seen you one time.

[Stevie]
It was one thing
to be a hard ass

when I was keeping
my distance.

Now I'm sitting here,
looking at the woman

that I used to love
once very deeply,

and it's obvious
that I hurt her.

She had to serve me
to get me in the room today.

But now that I'm here,
I'm thinking,

"What if this is my baby?"

I'm never gonna duck
any responsibility of mine.

Either way, though,
I'm--I'm--I'm moving back home.

You're moving back where?

To Miami.

That's why I've been trying
to get in contact with you.

I've been trying to make it--

You're not gonna move to Miami

if the baby mine
you're not moving--

[Joseline]
It's already planned
and the baby is yours.

My parents is in Florida
and as soon as she's born,

I'm taking her
and I'm going to Florida.

No! I'm not going for that.

Then what you gonna do?

You staying right here
where I'm at.

I've already made up my mind.
I'm not staying in Atlanta.

I'm not gonna stay around

just so my daughter's father
can be in her life.

I don't trust that
you're going to do that.

I'm in all my children's life.

I'm a great dad,
and that's what I'm gonna be.

So we'll just take the test
whenever you're ready.

It's a possibility that
I'm the father of this baby.

Joseline and I did slip up
a time or two

when we were broken up.

Now she talking all crazy like
she gonna take the baby away.

And I realized
by taking the test

is the only way
we're gonna find out the truth.

See you later.

Mmm...

I'm not gonna front like
I ain't got love for Joseline.

She is a big part of my life
for a long time.

And now she may
be having my baby.

[Stevie whispering]

Okay.

[Stevie]
It makes me wonder

if I did the right thing
by staying away.

And I wonder now if it'll ever
really be done for good.

[Jasmine]
My name is Jasmine

and I'm the mother
of Kirk Frost's

four-month-old baby boy.

I met Kirk while I was dancing
in the club

and while my boyfriend, Rod,
was in jail.

But Kirk knew that Kannon
was his baby

and he agreed
to take care of him

and help me out financially.

But then I made
the stupid mistake

of going
to that masquerade party

and telling the wrong people
that I have a baby with Kirk.

Since then, I've been
sitting at home,

avoiding the man
that's been helping me

take care of Kirk's child.

But now I'm here
to try to explain

to my man Rod what happened,
and hopefully he understands.

[Rod]
Where you been?

I just needed
a little space.

I needed a little time.

Space?

My name's Rod Bullock

and I'm in the business
of making music.

In fact,
I was one of those people

who saw something
in Yung Joc

and invested
in his career early on.

Jasmine and I have been
together off and on

for about five years now.

We fell off when I got sent
to prison for money laundering.

But I'm back now and we're
trying to make a go of things.

What's going on?

So...

went to the masquerade party,
everything was all good,

me and Joc's
talking at the bar.

Karlie walks up and assumes
that I'm with Joc, I guess.

So Joc clears it up,
tries to change the subject.

Um, he congratulates me
on having the baby.

Which leads to Karlie
asking how did I have a baby

with somebody
who was in the pen,

and I just let her know

that Kirk is the father
of Kannon.

Lo and behold...

in walks Kirk.

And so...

Wow...I mean, I confront
him about it.

So what does Kirk have to say?

He's denying everything.

He's acting as
if he doesn't no me.

I don't know what you expected
from him but that.

Jasmine and I have talked
through all of this,

and we decided
the best thing for now

is to hold on to our secret.

You know, Kirk has
been sliding her

some bread here and there
and paying her bills,

but, you know, I've been
taking care of the baby.

But I guess Jasmine
couldn't hold onto it anymore.

You made these choices.

That's the man you chose
to have a baby with.

I don't mean to blame you, man,
but I gotta blame you.

I wasn't gone for [bleep] eight,
nine months at the most...

and we come back
to a whole new life.

At first I was pissed

about the Jasmine
and Kirk situation,

but then I got out of jail,
the feelings were still there,

so we decided to try
to work things out.

I'm genuinely sorry
for all that [bleep].

I wish you hadn't have said
nothing in the first place

and let it be.

I don't want his father
to get away scot-free.

You stepped out of bounds.

As long as you was playing ball
it was all good.

The moment you
stepped out of bounds,

he turned his back.

One thing he can't do
is hide from the truth forever.

The world's gonna see the dude
for what he really is.

[Tommie]
I've been sitting
in a grimy-ass jail cell

for the last 24 hours
thanks to Joseline Hernandez.

I went in to talk
and wound up in handcuffs.

I had to bail myself out
because, outside of Stevie,

who was busy
when I was released,

no one else cared
to pick up my phone call.

Including [bleep]
that's been sitting in my house,

eating my food.

My mom's in town.

She's been helping me
with the kids,

but sometimes I forget that her
and I, we just don't mix.

And I've been in group homes,

which my mother could have
intercepted and stopped,

but she didn't.

Now that she's sitting
in my house

not answering
the phone calls from jail,

it's just like
another kick in the face.

What is going on?

I tried to call you.

Yeah.

You tried to call me?

[Tommie]
Yeah.

You be so busy
when I go to jail every time.

So you mad at me?

[Tommie]
I ain't mad at nobody.

I need to, you know, just,
you know, move forward.

Less coward [bleep]
get around me

and [bleep] waiting for me,

like how
it's been my whole life.

Do you understand
what I'm saying?

So I'm just about to rid
all of that [bleep].

That's Jerry.

[Jerry]
Yo, what's up?

Jerry!

What's up, baby?
Thank you so much.

I keep Jerry on retainer.
He's my personal bail bondsman.

Jerry's became like
a member of the family.

It's been almost a decade
I've known him.

It's kind of sad
that I can count on him

more than I can count
on my own mom.

A lot of people have been
doing me like really shady...

Right.

[Tommie]
Through this whole ordeal.

You know, you didn't
answer the phone for me

either or none
of this [bleep].

You wanna play like you
just don't know

what the hell was going on.

Take her back, Jerry.

Get her [bleep] out of here.

Are you serious? Take me back?

[Samantha]
You talking [bleep] to me?!

I'm your
[bleep] mother!

I'm here watching your kids!

How many [bleep] times
did I bond her out?

[Samantha]
What [bleep] difference
does [bleep] even matter?!

Take me back!

Man, shut your ass up!

[Tommie]
True colors, true colors!

Take me back to jail,
take me back to jail?

This is what I've been dealing
with my whole entire life.

Like my mom has never raised me
like the streets did.

The group homes did, juvenile.
I raised my damn self.

I learned so much [bleep]
from strangers.

And this is what
I've been dealing with.

I want you to shut
your [bleep] mouth right now!

[Tommie]
Or what?!

Shut it up!

Can Jerry take you to jail?

Why would you even say
some [bleep] like that?

This is my mother.

Samantha AKA Finesse.

You think I'm a roller coaster.

This bitch
is a [bleep] thriller.

You serious?
You think that's cool?

Take her-- take her back?

Do you think it's cool
for you to say

[bleep] that you're saying?

What the [bleep] I said to you?!

I ain't said nothing but
[bleep] truth to you, dog!

Man, I don't care nothing about
that ugly-ass [bleep]!

[Samantha]
I don't care nothing
about [bleep]!

Leave, bitch! You wanna leave?
You wanna do this to me?

I'm out!
You [bleeps] bitch!

Don't [bleep] play with me!
I'm your [bleep] mother, bitch!

Bitch, you ain't
never been that!

I've been taking care of myself
since I was 15,

while she's been chasing
the next get-rich-quick scheme.

Just go, just get out my house.

Go back to Vegas,
go back to Cali,

go wherever you going next,

just get the [bleep]
up out of here.

[Samantha]
I'm out this girl house,
I'm out.

[Tommie]
Punk-ass ho!

Always bailed her
[bleep] ass out!

Take me back to jail, bitch?
Get your ass on, ho.

I married you based
upon our dreams.

But guess what I ain't
gonna do is come last.

I took something with me
'cause I don't trust him.

[Melissa]
Joseline, why do you got this
man's drawers in your bag?

I can show you this video
that I have of him.

Oh yes, please,
I wanna see video.

I met up with Karlie.

So what I'm trying
to figure out is,

what the [bleep] is up?

♪ First I do my
lips lashes brows ♪

♪ Can't forget about
my edges ♪

♪ Heels all the flats

♪ All the mother[blank]
wedges ♪

♪ In that order,
in that order ♪

My second hit single
is blazing across the nation.

And I'm out here hustling.

An international superstar
can never rest.

♪ Two claps
and a dab ♪

♪ Two claps and a dab ♪

My nothing-ass husband, Ernest,
he may have booked this event

with the "Soul Train Line,"
but guess what?

He ain't did [blank] else.

Me and Ernest had
some tough times last year.

But I stick around 'cause no one
wants to be a failure

the second time around,
and this time around

I was hoping for better.

Yeah, did you see
that performance?

Okay, yeah, yeah.
That was great.

You are a natural-born
entertainer.

I was just hoping
that you may be appreciative

toward the things that I've--

[Momma Dee]
Of course, you're my husband.

But can I just be honest?
What I want is a man.

Like I really want this man
to step forward.

But guess what?

He's been raised to see that
his mama gonna pay everything.

I've been trying to help out
as much as I can,

but I've been having
some problems with my health,

and that's been keeping me

from being as productive
as I wanna be.

But my wife never let me forget
how frustrated she is.

[Momma Dee]
We've been married less
than two years, and guess what?

You've done more...

[Ernest]
Right.

To help your mom.

I married you based
upon our dreams.

But guess what I ain't gonna do,
is come last.

She can't do what I do.

No, no, you can't
compare yourself to my mama.

Your mama don't pay
our bills to the palace.

Your mama don't [bleep]
you like I [bleep] you.

And if she can,
I want a threesome.

What?!

That might be
the most disturbing thought

my wife had in a long time.

But I know she feel threatened

by how close me
and my mother are.

And that's exactly why I've been
keeping a secret from her.

Baby, I don't want this
to come between me and you.

But I'm gonna put it
on the table, man.

My mother, she coming
back to Atlanta.

She's gonna sell
the house in Florida.

Are you serious? Oh hell no!

Ernest mama here in Atlanta?

How inconsiderate
and selfish is that?

I don't wanna be split
between you and my mother--

[Momma Dee]
And you shouldn't have to.

I shouldn't have to.

So at the end of the day,

it's not about
just spilled milk.

It's about the water
that hit the tray...

how long you stay!

I'm surprised
you've never been here.

This is the Blue Ivory.

You know, this Joe's spot.

Oh really?It's his
joint.

I'm really excited today
because you know why?

My meeting with Stevie
turned out

a little different
than I expected.

I definitely gotta tell Melissa

what happened with me and Stevie

'cause I have
a surprise for her.

I gotta tell you
something, girl.

What's that?

I finally met with Stevie.

[chuckling]
When?

The other day.

So Joseline hit me up today

since I haven't seen her
since the party.

She has no idea about the drama
that ensued after she left,

and it's not my job
to tell her.

"I just don't respect the fact
that you neglected my pregnancy

"this whole time

"and I definitely
don't respect the fact

"that it's taken you
so long to go take this test."

Oh, what did he say about that?

[Joseline]
He's like, "You know,
I'm gonna take the test."

I said, "Stevie,
if you take the test,

"we're gonna have to
go to court.

"I don't even wanna
put you on child support."

He, all of a sudden, gets up,

wanna come over
and kiss my forehead.

Would you be open to moving back
and figuring this out

and raising a baby
with your child's father?

[Joseline]
No. Go take your ass
to take the DNA test

and then there could be
a conversation about anything.

That's more than fair.

He called me back when I left
that meeting with him.

So he was like,
"I gotta go home.

"Do you wanna come by the house
and check it out?"

Wait a minute, did you go?
You went.

Oh my God, you went.

Wouldn't you like to--You did go.

Did you hook up
with this guy?

[Joseline]
No, we did not have sex.

[Melissa]
Did you kiss him?

No.

Did you kiss him?

No, we did not kiss.

Where'd you wake up
at the next morning?

Just out of curiosity.

[laughing]

[Joseline]
I woke up at his house
but I didn't give him any.

I didn't want to.

Mm-hmm.

It took awhile for Joseline
to get to where she is now,

accepting that Stevie's
not around.

Now she can be okay without him.
And then now this?

You know I was going
through his [bleep]

in the house
while he was sleeping.

I took something with me
'cause I don't trust him.

Girl, what you about
to pull out this bag?

Joseline, why do you got
this man's drawers in your bag?

No, and are those new drawers
or old drawers?

[Joseline]
He wore them already.

All right, yo,
keep them in your face.

I was not leaving the house
without proof

that he is my baby daddy,
because I don't trust the fact

that he's going to go
take that test.

What are you talking about?

The drawers is the DNA.

So I want you to go
to the DNA place with me.

We are going to take them
to take a DNA test.

[Karlie]
I know I gotta tell Rasheeda
everything I know

about this baby situation.
I don't know much.

So I wanna make sure
I have all my facts straight.

And what better way than going
straight to the source?

Hey.

Hey.

First of all, um...

thank you for wanting
to meet with me.

I have so many things
to ask you.

Mm-hmm.

I was surprised to get word

that Karlie wanted
to meet up with me.

But I'm actually happy
because this gives me the chance

to tell my side of the story.

The secret's out,
I can't take that back.

But I can damn sure
try to clear my name.

[Yung Joc]
Man, listen.

Joc don't normally get involved
with all that he say/she say.

I just don't.

But the way Jasmine
just dropped that ball,

I had to get it with my man
to find out some truths, man,

'cause, whoo, it's getting
ugly around here.

Homey. What's happening?

What's up, boy?

What the hell--
how did all of this begin?

First of all, I used to dance.

Got you.

That's where me and Kirk met.

He really liked me
and I told him

that I was dealing
with somebody

and he was like,
"Well, I have a wife.

"So what's the problem?"

We used to go out together.

Him, his friends,

some family members.

Family knew about you?

[Jasmine]
He would even bring Karter over.

Oh my God.

Kirk's now my partner.

But you grew up
from way back.

Yeah.

[Yung Joc]
Let me ask you this, though.

How sure is Jasmine that Kirk
has fathered her child?

She done been straight up.

She come to see me
in prison,

she already telling me
Kirk the baby daddy.

He gaming her.

He telling her,
"You who I wanna be with."

She falling for it.

So he just moving around,
extra sloppy,

like he don't give no [bleep]
about his relationship.

No offense to you,

but Rod is a scammer.

He has scammed Mimi,
and-- and--

What?

Has in the past.

You know, it may--

No, he hasn't.

I feel like that has
nothing to do

with what we're
talking about right now.

But you got receipts.

Like give me some receipts
'cause now I'm like--

What you wanna see first?

Anything!

This is a conversation
between me and him.

[Karlie]
I know his number.
Can I see it?

Oh, this isn't gonna be
the same number that you know

because he has a separate phone.

It's a phone that Rasheeda
has no idea about.

He tell her,
"You get a spot here

"in the same building.

"It's gonna be easier that way.
I can see you easier."

[Jasmine]
So this is the car
that he let me use.

He let you use the car?

[Jasmine]
Yeah.

[Karlie]
What's that?

[Jasmine]
Proof of insurance.

And his name is on here.

He was paying my bills.

I done seen
[bleep] on camera,

holding the baby at her house.

You know your homey.

[Jasmine]
I can show you this video
that I have of him.

I was hoping to show up

and, you know, this chick
give me a half-ass story.

But instead, she got like
documents and proof

and text messages and all type
of [bleep] like [bleep].

Dammit, Kirk.

That is Kirk's ass.

Let me see this.

[Jasmine]
Say hi to Daddy.

And I heard you say, "Daddy."

[Rod]
Come on, that's her
and him at her house.

He openly admitting
this is my baby,

this is what I want you to do

and I'm supporting her
the whole time.

Y'all having a baby, congrats.

[Yung Joc]
Is that Kirk in the video?

It looked like it.
But guess what?

Who's to say he didn't
superimpose Kirk's face

on another man's body
while holding this child?

I don't know.

Did he ever tell you
he love you?

Yes.

[gasping]

These men ain't [bleep].

We just had a big fight
the other day.

I'm confused.

Like I don't even know
if I really wanna get married.

Your mom is trapped.

She trapped in that alcohol.

And you're fighting the battle.

[Momma Dee]
Ernest has blew my mind

with the news that his mother
is moving back to Atlanta

from West Palm Beach, Florida.

But ain't nothing like
a good old shopping spree

and an old-fashion venting.

What's happening, Mom?

You know, I'm just
shopping and stuff, you know?

Shopping?

Yeah, I'm kind of depressed.

There's some things going on.

Can we talk?

Yeah, let's talk.

I got anxiety.

You know, the queen done told me
to meet her at this shop.

It's a 9-1-1.
Man, it's gonna mean bad news.

But I came for sure, though,

'cause on the real I got
something to tell Momma Dukes.

I just gotta figure out
how I'm gonna say it.

What can the queen
possibly be depressed about?

I called you here because
I have some devastating news.

Ernest's mama
moving back to Atlanta.

But what's so bad
about her coming to Atlanta?

She's undermining my marriage.

Like it's always been her
calling the house.

"Do this?
Can you do this for me?"

But at the end of the day,
I have my marriage to work on.

But that's so funny,
you know what I'm saying?

That is so funny and weird.
You're known for doing that.

You're known for meddling
and just jumping in folks' stuff

and just hovering.

So it's like,
how can you even be mad?

This is so ironic.

You want somebody
not to do what you do.

That's an oxymoron.

You just overreacting.

And I think you're putting it
on the wrong person.

You need to be
putting it on your man.

You a man and you pay bills.

Don't you pay the bills
where you and the Bam live?

Momma Dukes done open the door

and I'm gonna go ahead
and step on in there

and just let
Momma Dukes know,

hey, Mom, you may not
be getting a wedding.

I've been living at a hotel,
you know what I'm saying?

A hotel?

[Scrappy]
Yeah.

We just had a big fight
the other day.

Like I ain't even talked
to her in a couple days.

Now, see,
I got down on one knee,

one knee and proposed,

to a woman who I thought

I was gonna spend
the rest of my life with.

We even got
a house together.

But we've been
arguing ever since.

Like things even got so bad

I done had to pack
my [bleep] and bounce.

Bam don't trust me.

She be on my head. It's hard.

I'm learning to have patience.
So sometime it be me.

It took me a long time
to accept the Bam

and her hooves
in the royal palace.

But now that I have,

I don't need my son Scrappy
messing it all up.

I want you two guys
to work it out

because you got in front
of the whole world

and you asked this woman
to marry you.

But right now, Mom,
like I'm confused.

Like I don't even know
if I really wanna get married.

See, I can't even tell you

all why me and Bam
going through it right now

'cause we argue about
the stupidest things, you know?

She get petty.
I get stubborn.

She angry...
and I get the hell on.

Now the way things going
with me and Bam shorty,

I ain't getting married
just to get divorced.

No. And I sure as hell
ain't gonna spend my whole life

arguing like my Momma Dukes
and Ernest.

What I'm gonna do--

[Scrappy]
What you gonna do?

I'm gonna throw a dinner
and I want Ernest's mom to come.

I'm gonna send for her.
And you bring the Bam.

And I think we need
to discuss some things, to talk.

I'll think about it.

♪ You're taking me closer

♪ Feel so lonely

♪ You're taking me closer

♪ Feel so lonely

[Tommie]
My mother and I haven't spoken

since she left the house
the other night.

I don't know where she is
and I really don't care.

Sometimes she's not around
for months.

So I know she'll be back
when she needs something.

♪ Feel so far away

♪ Feel so far away

But what about what I need?

I could use some support
and encouragement, good advice.

So I reached out
to an old friend

who is a mom
who maybe can understand

what I'm going through.

What up?

Some things never change.

You know this is my baby.

[Karen]
Tommie has always
been like a daughter to me.

She was my friend before
she was Scrapp's girlfriend.

And then they drove
each other crazy.

Then he got locked up.

And even though
we fuss and fight,

she gonna always be in my life.

What the hell
you been doing?

Well...

Just give me
the [bleep] rundown.

I've been to
jail.

Oh, Jesus, for what?

[Tommie]
Joseline.

For something she got
some little video,

and they made it sound like

I was saying
I was gonna shoot her.

Was that that argument
y'all had?

Yeah, from the argument
on Peter Street.

She's pregnant.
You know that, right?

[Tommie]
I don't give a [bleep]
about that.

I could care
less about you.

I just don't wanna
go to jail, bitch.

So what does Stevie say?

Stevie been going through
his [bleep] with her too,

so he like, "Man, this bitch
is a [bleep] nightmare."

He took me to the precinct

but I haven't heard
from him since.

Stevie was there
when I needed him

but of course, now that he's
trying to figure out

his paternity mess
with Joseline, he's ghost.

So I'm gonna just
leave Stevie alone for now

until he get his mind right.

My mother wasn't answering
my calls while I was in jail,

so I had to bond myself out

and, you know,
the bondsman, Jerry,

he come to the house
to get the money

and she's just going crazy
on some [bleep].

Like, "Yo, Jerry,
take her back to jail."

And I'm like,
"What the [bleep]?"

What's really going on
with you and your mom, like--

[Tommie]
I don't know what's going on.

I just feel like she does
not know how to love.

You know, my grandmother
had so many kids,

she probably got
neglected a little bit.

When I see it happening
to my sister,

it happened to me,
it happened to everybody.

You selfish.
We didn't ask to come here.

I understand that,
but just listen.

Sometime, at some point,
somebody gotta break the cycle.

You've been to therapy.

Life is good for you right now.
Do you understand?

Life ain't good for me.
Who told you that?

[Karen]
No, no. What I'm saying is,

you're getting
all the help that you need.

Do you understand?

If your mom is still drinking,

just be compassionate,

because she does not know
where she's at right now.

Sam is a work in progress,

and you can't help somebody

if you a work
in progress yourself.

She-- she trapped.

She trapped in that alcohol.

Do you understand?
And you're fighting the battle.

But you can't be fighting her.
You can't.

Because it puts her
in combat mode.

Do you understand?
'Cause I don't-- I can't--

I ain't going to see Scrapp.
I can't come to the jail.

You already know my deal.
I can't come to the jail.

So I'm not gonna be able
to come see you.

So leave that [bleep]
in the past.

Okay?

I talk to Scrapp all the time.

But it's a shame.

I can't even visit him
because I'm a felon.

Tommie got
the same problem as me.

I know that that's
killing Tommie

but some way, some how,

she just need
to move on with her life.

I support whatever it is
that makes you happy

and keep you focused

because I love you like
you're my daughter.

I'm no longer with Scrapp.
Basically, it's done.

I can't even go see the [bleep].

You know, I'm just dating,
you know, I'm just--

And you should.

I ain't even, you know,
sweating that or whatever.

But Karlie,
I'm gonna address this ho.

I may not be
with Scrapp anymore,

but I'm never gonna forgive
that fake-ass bitch

who tried to take him
away from me.

I'm gonna make sure I got
some get back for Karlie Redd.

The fact still remains
that you tried me.

Like a bitch does not
never try me like that.

Let me just say this.

She was never
your homegirl.

I'm not a bitch you can
play with like that,

and you gotta know.

Joseline and I spent some time

together at the crib
the other night.

After our meeting
the other day,

I texted her to come by
and sit down and talk.

And that's all we did, chill.

I'm not trying to get back
together with her or nothing.

She really want me
to take this DNA test,

and I'm thinking maybe
I should do that

just so I know the truth.

I walk in and I see
this suitcase.

And I'm thinking,
"Has Joseline taken it too far

"and try to move in?"

And then I see a beat-up boot,
so I know it ain't Joseline.

This could only mean one thing.
My daughter Savannah's here

when she's supposed to be
in school in Philly.

So I'm wondering
what's going on.

Vannah?

[Savannah]
Hi, Daddy.

[Stevie]
What you doing here?

It's not just me.
Say hi to Savage.

Savage?

What's up?

I love having my kids around.

In fact, I had everybody with me
for most of the summer.

But for Savannah
to hop on a plane

in the middle of a school week
is a whole different thing.

What you doing here?

I don't know.
Like you like summer, right?

Yeah, summer was fun.
We had a blast.

[Savannah]
We had a blast, right?
So...

um, Savage and I,

we're gonna reside at this
residence from now on.

What you talking about?

First of all, you in school.

Your mother's
not gonna have that.

Well, I'm gonna
finish school online.

I already signed up and started.

What is online school?

That's not physically
being in school.

You gotta find
a school to go to.

This is where I need to be.

Like I'm 18,
I make my own decisions.

But you can't make
your own decisions

just to come here
without even telling me.

My daughter's in her final year
of high school

and I don't know nothing
about finishing up online.

To me, it sound like she wanna
be a high school dropout,

and that ain't gonna fly
with me or her mother.

What can you do now?
We're here.

You gonna tell me
to get out?

[Stevie]
No, I'm just saying--

Tell me to get out.

I would love for you to be here.

But this is the bachelor pad.

Bachelor dad.

Hey.

Vannah and her mother

have the same
up-and-down relationship

that most teenage girls
have with they moms.

She's here and she's safe,
and I'm gonna hit up her mom

soon as we finish
this little conversation

and see what this is all about.

When are you gonna
clean this crib up?

I'm not living like...

Dog bowls in the middle
of the living room?

[clattering]

[Lyric]
Uh, got it.

What's up, Mr. J?

It's nice to see you again.

You're not gonna
say hi back?

That's rude,
that's rude.

What the [bleep]?

Not only is Vannah
and her dog here,

her best friend Lyric
is crashing through my kitchen

like Bruh-Man from "Martin."

This is all spur
of the moment for me.

I'm-- I'm dealing with
a whole bunch of other stuff.

I just sat down with Joseline.

With who?

She's very much pregnant.
She needs me to take a test.

So this could be your child?

Yeah.

The fact that you're sitting
down with her in itself

is a disaster.

Vannah has seen me and Joseline
go through a lot,

and she don't like nobody
messing with her father.

But now that Joseline and I
are on better terms,

Savannah's attitude
is just another reason

why having her around
might pose some problems.

This the house
that sleaze built.

There's gonna be rules
and regulations

if you're gonna live here.

[Savannah]
At the end of the day,

we're going to be
a big, happy family.

You're moving back to Atlanta.

Yes, I am.

Why?

I met with the girl.

Oh, you did?

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Tonight I'm supposed
to get all of my family together

so we can talk about
some important issues.

Oh, hello.

Hi.

Wow.

[Momma Dee]
My monster-in-law
need to be reminded

that I am the queen.

So I really flew her in
from West Palm Beach

just to remind her
I run this palace.

Thank you for coming out.

What's going on?

You're moving back to Atlanta.

Yes, I am.

Why?

Is that okay with you?

Yes, but I have issues.

Every day you call and you say,

"Ernie, Ernie, come over here.
Ernie, do this, Ernie, do that."

Let me tell you
something.

When I call Ernie and ask him
to do something for me,

if he has something to do,
he will let me know that.

[Momma Dee]
But he doesn't.
He puts you first.

What's going on?

[Momma Dee]
What? Where's the Bam at?

This is supposed to be
a family function.

You're solo tonight
or what?

Yeah, we ain't doing
too good right now.

Yeah, I thought about
reaching out to the Bam.

I don't think it's
a good idea right now.

She's still in the crib,

I'm homeless,
living in hotels and [bleep].

Now ain't no dinner
that Momma Dukes can throw

can change anything
going on right now.

Bro, I see tears in your eyes.
What's happening?

Oh no, it's-- I ain't gonna lie.
Like, you know, that's my love.

We ain't seeing eye
to eye right now.

Of course I'll help
if you need me to

but I don't wanna
overstep my boundaries.

No, she wouldn't
wanna be like me.

No, I sure wouldn't.

She's accusing me
of overstepping mine.

[laughing]

You don't tell me his business.

Ernie does not
tell me everything.

Okay, but listen, yes, he do.

Guess what I heard you say
on the speaker phone?

You said, "I'm sick of Dee."
And I'm like, "Sick of Dee?"

And Dee paying all the bills.
That hurt me.

And as a woman,
she's gonna tell you,

"Son, that's your wife."

No, you don't tell me
what to tell my son.

[Ernest]
Dee was a bit out of line.

My mom handle
Momma Dee very well

and I think that Dee
has met her match.

But Dee is the type of person
that steps on your feet

and then expect you to say,
"Excuse me."

With that being said,
I have brought you a gift.

[Scrappy]
Now, when Momma Dukes
get to pulling out party favors

and stuff like that,
all I know,

it's either fitting
to be a prize fight

or some hurt feelings, shorty.
But either way,

[bleep] gonna go left.

Here's your pacifier.

You can put that in his mouth.

And you can change his diaper.
And here's your onesie.

[laughing]

'Cause all you do is
take, take, take.

And I got you a new T-shirt.
TakeTakeTake@gmail.com.

I'm out of here.
I'm sure it'll fit.

[Ernest]
You've got to be kidding.

Yes.

What in the world?

♪ It's do or die

♪ The finish line

♪ Seems so far away
from yesterday ♪

♪ From yesterday

another test ♪

♪ I hope the path
will become clear to me ♪

I haven't really been
doing anything

but going to work
and taking care of my kids

since all these rumors
been swirling around

about Kirk in these streets.

And I damn sure
didn't wanna talk to nobody.

But Karlie's been reaching out
and I know she was there

the night that
the whole situation went down.

So I finally got myself together

and I'm gonna listen
to what she has to say.

♪ Come clear to me

♪ Come clear to me

Hey.

I don't even know how to feel.

I know it's my responsibility
as her friend

to tell her everything I know,

but this woman's whole life
is about to change.

I wish I don't even have
to be a part of it.

Thank you for, um,
like finally answering my calls.

You're probably like,

"I don't wanna talk
to that Karlie."

I figured...

I might as well...

hear what you got to say.

'Cause he told me
he don't know the girl.

At all?

That's what he claimed.

I met with the girl.

Oh, you did?

She said he met her
at a strip club.

Fast forward to they had sex.

Fast forward
to now she's pregnant.

Fast forward to he moved her
in your old building.

[Karlie]
I met with the girl.

Oh, you did?

I was willing to talk to Karlie
'cause I knew she was there

the night that this little bitch
dropped a bomb

on whatever the situation
is going down with her and Kirk.

But it never occurred to me

that Karlie was gonna
take it upon herself

to go meet up with the chick
on some one on one.

Now I'm feeling
a little like "Eeh."

She said he met her
at a strip club.

Fast forward to they had sex.

Fast forward to now
she's pregnant.

Fast forward to he moved her
in your old building.

She lives downstairs from y'all.

She's met Karter.

She's hung out
with Kirk's family.

And I didn't believe anything
she's telling me

at this point, right?
I was like, "Show me something."

So she shows me
text messages from Kirk.

I said, "Let me see the number."

She was like, "No, he uses
a whole nother phone."

He got two phones.

Really?

She showed me a video.

And the video was her
in her apartment

and Kirk is holding a baby.

And she was like,
"Say hi to Daddy."

I was like, "Okay, so--"

I don't even know what to say.

Feeling a little sick
to my stomach right now.

I'm disgusted.
Like I don't even know...

This [bleep] so far
and all over the place,

it almost seems like
a [bleep] movie to me.

Like is this real?

Let me tell you something.

I've been married
for 17 years, right?

[Karlie]
I know.

And, yes,
you go through [bleep].

But I would not wish no [bleep]
like this on no-[bleep]-body.

I'm not surprised
that that bitch--

I don't know her,

I don't give
a [bleep] about her.

At the end of the day,

the person who's supposed
to be my best friend...

and my husband
and my soul mate...

You understand
what I'm saying?

We built this whole [bleep]
life together.

But to hear that [bleep]
is hurtful as [bleep].

Karlie, I don't--
I'm gonna be honest with you.

At first, I didn't
wanna talk to you

'cause I was thinking you
would be on some [bleep].

But at the end of the day,

you have to be
a sick mother[bleep]

to make that [bleep] up

and I would hope
that you wouldn't.

This is what she showed me.
And I pray

and I hope

that this bitch is
on some scam artist [bleep]...

because...

you don't have
no paternity test.

That's just too much.

I can't even think to think that
he would go this [bleep] far.

Karlie tells me
that there's a video of you

with the girl holding
a [bleep] baby in your hand.

♪ Comes to please
oh I feel uneasy ♪

♪ About it

♪ I feel so

♪ Uneasy

[Rasheeda]
It was hard as hell
for me to sit there

and listen to Karlie tell me

all these things about
my husband and this girl.

But the harder part was for me

to listen to my husband
of 17 years

sit blatantly in my face
and lie.

I've gone from confused

to heartbroken
to just damn angry.

But tonight
I'm gonna let Kirk know

he gonna have to keep it
all the way real.

It's smelling good.

You right on time too.

Come on.

Things have really
been tense at home.

But when I walk in the door
and Rasheeda,

the working woman,
is whipping up a meal,

I'm thinking things are about
to get better around here.

You might wanna say your grace.

I'm sitting here
looking at this man

that I've known since
I was damn near a teenager

and I'm thinking to myself,
"Do I even know you right now?"

What's up?
How you feeling today?

Pretty cool.

I mean, just average day,
doing, you know, what I do.

Doing what you do?

You seem like
you're a little tense.

I've had better days.

So...

I met up with Karlie.

Mm-hmm.

She told me a bunch
of information

that really, really threw me.

First of all,

when you came home
from that damn party...

Mm-hmm.

[Rasheeda]
And you came in the house,

you said that you didn't
know that girl.

Right?

Yeah.

Well, it's so funny to me how...

Karlie had a conversation
with the girl.

Mm-hmm.

And I will guess
if you don't know her,

then she don't know you, right?

But obviously she does know you.

She knows a whole lot about you.

Y'all done been
in a relationship...

That's not true.

That your ass
take care of her.

Then Karlie tells me

that there's a video of you
with the girl,

holding a [bleep] baby
in your hand.

So what I'm trying
to figure out is...

what the [bleep] is up?

[Kirk]
Next time on
"Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta"...

You ain't been home
in six months?

Hell no.

[bleep]

[Tammy]
Why are you in my house?

You're not a part
of this anymore.

Why are you here with you bags?

I miss you.

I might not be perfect,
but [bleep] damn!

I'm the type of bitch

you wanna go [bleep] a bitch
at the strip club?!

The cheating part
is one thing.

Mm-hmm.

But a baby...

Is he gonna do a paternity test?

He gonna have to do something.

There's a girl running around
saying she has a baby by Kirk.

How about the chick
is Rodney girlfriend?

Scambo?

Scambo.

Now we get Mimi coming out with,
"Oh, Rod's a scam artist."

I think you need
to talk to the bitch.

Hearing around
the streets,

"Mimi got this scam artist
[bleep] say about you."

I don't know where
you getting all this from.

You the same [bleep] lying-ass
[bleep] you've always been.

[Rod]
And what are you, though?

You the same porno star,
swinging from rod to rod.

I do have my reservations
about coming out tonight.

You know, I was trying to get
one year without going to jail.

'Cause you know how catty
they all can be.

Bitches can be.

Karlie, I know you had to do
what you had to do, girl.

He was fine, right?

Moving right along--

This bitch is never
gonna change, Lord.

Because it's not
gonna be good.
