- Previously on "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta"...

- As far as the whole situation with your daughter,

this whole thing has me uncomfortable right now.

I'm not liking where it's going.

And I'm not liking how, in the name of love

and supporting you, I have to kind of, like,

be on this mystery life with you.

- When you get 60, you start to reflect.

I'm sending out an olive branch to the band.

But it's just because of the kids.

- Okay.

- Not because what's in my heart,

because I don't like the bitch.

Where did we go wrong?

We didn't start out like that.

You said you graduated from college.

You don't have a college degree.

- Nobody in your family got one.

That's why you're getting sued and your ass is gonna lose.

- I saw some interesting things on your phone.

"Hey, babe, it's been a minute.

How are you?"

- Yeah, I'm still hollering at girls, "I wanna see you."

I don't know if you and I are gonna work out.

- You lied to me.

Even Erica told me. - Oh, really?

- And I should have never [bleep] had your back.

- Everything I had, you wanted, all the way down to my fiancé.

So what? - Since I found out--

- You have said [bleep] you know.

- You need some therapy. - You keep making assumptions.

- You need a cup of wine. You keep your hands in there.

- Renni.

- Hey.

Sierra, I need you to do my hair.

- Okay, but can you do me a favor?

- What?

- Please?

- What is it?

- Can you, uh, make up with Erica Banks?

- Girl.

We just talked about this in Belize.

- Are you ready to apologize to Banks?

- I'm not apologizing. - Why the hell you--

hell no! - [laughs]

- Please.

- What am I making up exactly?

- I just want you guys to have a conversation.

- We tried that twice.

- Three times is always the charm.

- No.

I'm gonna be a little shady, friend.

'Cause you got three rings, and it ain't worked yet.

- Ooh.

Ooh. Why?

But it's gonna work.

I get it, why Renni don't wanna meet

with Erica and make up.

But honestly, after Belize, it really was so eye-opening.

And it was just deep.

We gotta forgive people and move on.

- I don't--honestly, you know, we're all on our healing

journeys and everything, and we've been working

on ourselves and all that.

I can't say that I'm in a place where I can sit

down and have a conversation.

I can't say I'm in that place yet.

- I ran into her at the nail shop.

And when I spoke to her, she was very, like, compassionate.

And she's like, life is short.

I don't wanna be--

I hate what actually happened with me and Renni.

And I wouldn't mind making it work.

No?

- Mm. - Please.

- Mm. I'll think about it.

- It's gonna be good.

- There's been a lot of tension in this friend group

that Sierra wants to squash.

But me and Erica, we ain't been friends for years.

We ain't sat on couches and cried together.

The only thing we talked about was her eating

a little [bleep] and me going about my business.

But I also don't want the ladies

to be put in an awkward position

because she and I can't see eye to eye.

So I will consider figuring this out with her.

- Why are you looking at me like that?

- Because you called me all the way.

You could've ask me that [bleep] on the phone.

- I'm gonna get you two to be friends.

- You're trying to put--you ain't supposed

to open the umbrella inside.

That's a sign the conversation's

not gonna go good right there. - Uh-uh. No, it's not. Come on.

- That's bad luck.

I don't know how to do no umbrella. Come on.

We're gonna go down here and have some drinks.

- I love when a bunch of strong men come together in one room,

and they know their one purpose is to meet girls.

Like, you ain't here to do nothing else

but to meet a woman.

- Girl, not you behind the bar.

- [screams]

We're getting our little drinks together for the mixer.

- Okay.

- I've been planning a singles mixer at my restaurants.

Kai and I have been going through it.

And I think that sometimes, another man's attention

may get your mind off things.

And plus, baby needs to get out the house more.

She needs to be using her mouth.

She needs to get laid.

I mean, come on, girl.

Dust it off.

- So you really got the men locked in?

- Yes.

I got the men locked in.

I got some basketball players.

- Mm-mm.

- I got some football players.

I got some player players.

I want them to come to you like, bam!

Bam! - Karlie.

- Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!

- Yes? - Yes!

- You are so serious. - Yes! I'm excited!

- Oh, my gosh.

If anybody's gonna be trying to hook me up,

definitely, Karlie is that girl.

She has, like, a plethora of men.

She always got a new one.

And it's like, she don't be recycling them, either.

So some comic and romantic relief,

I definitely need it after my last little situation

with Mama Dee.

I took your advice.

And I went to go holler at Mama Dee.

And it was a disaster.

[shouting, arguing]

- [bleep] y'all hos.

- Yeah, [bleep] you too. Mm-hmm.

You know how she been lying.

- Yeah.

- She's been going on the internet, talking about--

- Crazy. Talking crazy.

- Girl. She said she don't do that.

She was like, I don't say nothing about you.

You're delusional. You're crazy.

- What!

- So she was on the internet saying

that I was, like, lying about my education or whatever.

[tense music]

So I ordered copies of my degrees.

And I brought one, and I sat it next to her.

And I'm like, you know, since you're, like,

adamant about, like, me not getting my degree,

like, here.

This is, like, the real copy.

And girl, she picked it up.

And she was like, this is fake.

And she ripped that [bleep] up.

- She ripped your degree up?

- That's not real.

That's not real. - You know what,

I could smack the [bleep] out your mouth.

That [bleep] had me so hot, I'm not [bleep] gonna lie,

because I'm like, you're an ignorant ass old woman.

After Mama Dee ripped up my degree

and got a little aggressive with me,

I'm just staying away from her ass.

My lawyers can deal with that.

Enough about that old ass wrinkly lady.

What's going on with you and Kai, honey?

- You mean my man? - Yes.

"Yo man."

- Girl-uh!

So Erica tried to warn me that he was--

- He was what? - Poking around.

She basically said he a ho.

And I was like, thank you for that information,

because I always wanna know if my man is cheating.

- Yeah, yeah.

- But then I'm gonna take that with a grain of salt,

and I'ma go and figure it out, - Figure it out, yeah.

- So then I went and put on my detective hat.

- Oh, bitch.

- I went in his phone while he was sleeping.

Anyway, I saw a lot of [bleep].

He's really a player in these streets.

- Hold on, I need to sit down for this, honey.

- No, girl!

- Kai and I still handle business together.

So I've spoken to him since the fight, but it's not the same.

We--we're just at each other's throats.

It is all business, no pleasure.

- Are you okay? - No. I'm not okay.

I'm not okay. So I'm mad.

- I would be heartbroken.

- You know Karlie.

I'm very petty. - Yes.

- I gotta get my get-back.

- What you gonna do?

- I need him to feel how this [bleep] hurts.

Like, this [bleep] hurts bad.

And since I'm introducing my friend

to a lot of men that day, a lot of ballers in the room--

- So you just basically are gonna take this opportunity--

- I'm a player.

- You wanna have a one-night stand for real to get back?

Don't do that.

Karlie, are you throwing the singles

mixer for us or for you?

Do I think hooking up with another man

to get back at your man is a good idea?

Definitely not.

But am I glad that the relationship drama is

someone else's for a change?

Absolutely.

You're gonna put that whole thing in your mouth like that?

- We're gonna try.

When the guys come, let's see if this kind of, like,

gets them, like--you know, turns them on.

- They probably will.

- [laughs]

They probably will.

- You gotta put it down. - Put it down?

- Yeah. - No. Wait.

- Oh, my God!

Oh.

Karlie!

This is kind of--

- [laughs] I'm trying to do [bleep].

It's wide.

You try it.

- I'm gonna get a little skinny one.

- [laughs]

Now do the skinny one. [laughs]

- Be a good sister. Hold my hair.

- Yes, ma'am!

[laughs]

[screams]

[laughs]

- Coming up on "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta"...

- Sierra reached out.

And she thinks that I should sit down with Renni.

Do you think it'll go well?

- Have your wig glued down.

- So I contacted Mazi, and was like,

hey, I think this little girl is yours.

- I don't want you to end up in my same situation.

Do not lose yourself in it.

- I just literally just came to see you.

You're my plans tonight.

Now let me show you.

- ♪ Make my way to the top and it ain't no stoppin' ♪

- Hey, hey, hey. - Oh.

Well, look what the cat drug in.

- Hey, how are you? - Hey, boo.

- Hi. You late.

- Oh, stop it. - Okay. It's okay.

- I've got, like, 30 kids I gotta cook for.

Today, I'm meeting up with Yandy,

and we are making lotion at this lotion shop.

I wanna update Yandy on life and music

since I last saw her.

Tell me what's happening.

- I signed $1 million deal.

And I only got a $75,000 advance.

- Okay, okay.

Now, we know I always go to Joc for advice, especially

when it comes to the industry.

But today, I want some grown woman energy.

I would take advice from Yandy any day.

And she's an OG in artist management

and I'm newly independent.

And we got [bleep] together, okay?

- First things first.

Go ahead and choose out your fragrances.

Can I start you off with any champagne?

- Yes. - Yes.

She's like, yes.

Okay, okay, yes.

- Baccarat? Girl, hold on.

This my--oh, [bleep].

- How'd you found this spot?

- I picked it because I know

you're in the skincare business.

- Oh.

So what's up with the music?

- I mean, you know, it's musicking.

Last time I talked to you, girl--

- The label mess?

- We figured things out.

- You did?

- We figured things out.

- What does that mean exactly?

- Getting ready to go into a distribution deal.

And I'm just having 1501 partially a part of that

to finish out the two projects.

- Okay, that they're owed.

- That they say.

- Okay, okay, okay.

Are you gonna use their team, or you just--

- Well, I'm not really fond of Carl's team.

- Oh.

- Because he handpicked those people.

- If they're gonna take money off of it,

let them work for it.

- I feel good.

I wanted to go 100% independent.

But now I'm stuck with doing two more projects for 1501.

This is how artists coming up get screwed all the time.

I have to split every dime in my new situation with 1501.

But Yandy right. [chuckles]

If 1501's gonna be getting a cut,

they need to be cutting that marketing budget, okay?

[claps]

- So now that we have our fragrances,

go ahead and pour that into your body butter.

- It's just gorgeous.

- Yes.

Just go ahead and stir it.

- Okay. - All right.

- I could just do it--

- Go ahead and fill up your jars, babe.

- Lord Jesus.

- This smells so good.

- Can I smell the pine tree?

- Let me smell yours.

It's a little older.

- But you--oh, [bleep]!

Listen, I know that I got kids

that's almost close to Erica's age.

But--do I need to put you on timeout, Erica?

Don't be calling my lotion old.

Disrespectful.

- So Sierra thinks that I should sit down with Renni.

- Okay.

- Because you know, we haven't spoken or seen

each other since the incident.

- Renni, you keep making assumptions.

- You're ending now. - You keep making assumptions.

- You need a cup of wine, because you're ending there.

- That's a cup of wine.

- Do you think a sit-down is necessary?

Do you think it can happen?

Do you think it'll go well?

- If I'm gonna have a sit-down, it's going to be with

the understanding that you coming to apologize

first and foremost. - Right.

- And then we're gonna have a conversation.

I don't know what you said to her to make her do that.

- Yeah.

- But sometimes, words can cut just as deep.

That's something that you have to take accountability for

and take ownership of. - Yeah.

- But what I can say is, she says that she's

on a healing journey. - Mm-hmm.

- And I know that when I've seen her get into other things

with other people, she's always very

remorseful that it happens.

See, I know Renni is a really good person.

I know that she has the capacity

to apologize for the things that have happened

and move on.

I've seen her do it with Amy.

I really think that they should get together

and squash this foolishness because we

run in the same circles.

And I ain't trying to be out with my heels

on looking cute, breaking up no fights.

Y'all gonna bump into each other.

Nobody wants to bump into somebody

and feel that funny feeling in your stomach,

like, what's gonna happen? Do I gotta fight today?

- You know what I'm saying? Like, what's the prob?

- You let me know if you need me to go with you.

I ain't having none of that foolishness around me.

I can't imagine her coming to the table

with you having a problem.

- Yeah.

- But have your wig glued down.

Listen.

We ain't got to be friends.

But what we're not gonna do, you ain't messing up my wig.

You ain't messing up my makeup. - You know what I'm saying?

- We ain't throwing drinks and we ain't throwing hands.

- Oh, my God. Okay. - Cheers.

- You gotta act like you own the camera.

- Today, I have a photo shoot for my upcoming single.

I'm super-excited.

I've definitely been in a dark space

since Mazi dropped this heavy news

on about this new bonus child.

I'm just happy to be working, booked, and staying busy

and really stay off of the real nonsense

that I have going on in my personal life.

- Ooh!

- Oh, hey.

- And actually come--come up. - How you doing?

- Good, good.

You look so good.

- Thank you.

I invited Bambi so I can get her real opinion

on this Mazi mess.

Plus I need to check in on her.

Man, you look so good all the time.

- You too.

- And I know you're tired of me saying three kids where?

But I'm gonna say it every time I see you

because you look good.

- Wearing my ass out.

- I haven't seen you since the 1501 event.

It's okay, baby.

- What's going on?

- Breathe.

- My mouth is numb, y'all.

- What's going on?

- I don't know.

- I don't know. - You gotta go.

I'm glad you're in a better space.

- Same.

Although Mama Dee and I just got into it.

I even sent Mama Dee a cease and desist

because she's been doing so much.

- You said you were gonna do it and you did it?

- I sent it. And she got it.

And the same night, she went back online

and was still talking [bleep].

- Damn.

- At this point, I don't think she thinks I'm serious.

I think she thinks it's a game.

- I went through that with my ex.

- Yeah.

- When I left Mazi, he was cutting up on the internet.

I wanted to tell you a little more.

That's why I was texting you a lot.

- Amy, what the [bleep]?

- Like, hey, girl, come out the rock.

I need to say some [bleep].

- What?

- Somebody contacted Mazi, and was like,

hey, I think this little girl is yours.

Mm-hmm.

She's kind of a big girl. I was like--

- A big girl. Like how old?

- Like, seven.

Now that the shock has worn off,

I am pissed off that Mazi did not tell me

more about this from the jump.

How old is she? I mean, we haven't--

- Seven.

- Seven.

I feel like I have to ask you questions to get the details.

So she's seven. That's nice to know.

I have always been able to look past so much

bull[bleep] that comes with Mazi.

But a whole-ass human child?

I definitely cannot let [bleep] go by.

I haven't even talked to my sisters about it, my mom.

- Oh, [bleep]. They're gonna be pissed.

- But he is also slipping back into his old ways at the house

and on the couch, doing everything other than focus

on his damn business.

- Amy, this is a lot.

You are in the prime of your career.

And then you have all this other stuff that's just--

- It always gets me off of my trail because I'm so busy.

Like, what are you doing, sir?

- You can't let it, though, Amy.

Like, I did that [bleep] for years.

I lost crucial years of my life just

being with someone based on potential

opposed to reality.

And I just don't want Amy to get caught up in that.

She has her career.

And she's just a beautiful girl,

and things are limitless for her right now.

I've been in this position for many, many years.

I contributed a lot to this family

and just doing the most.

You can be an amazing stepmother.

- Yeah.

- But that one moment that it's a tiny little issue,

you're gonna get swept to the side.

And everything that you did, all the time you put in,

all the effort, all the resources

you brought to the table is gonna

be looked at like nothing.

I don't want you to end up in my same situation.

Do not lose yourself in this.

- Yeah.

- Coming up on "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta"...

- You're literally showing me again.

I'm not gonna take accountability?

- What you mean?

- When you're seven. - I don't [bleep]!

- Hi.

- How you doing? - Good.

So let's mix this [bleep] up.

[all shouting answers]

- Okay, next question.

What is your favorite position?

- Definitely give me a doggy style.

I mean if we--

- Doggy style on the first night?

- If we're gonna do it, we might as well just go all out.

- What's that again?

- Everybody gonna [bleep] on the first night,

please raise your hand.

Thank you!

Finally, some honesty up in here.

I really wanna do this singles mixer once a month

and see how it goes.

I'm so excited to play Cupid for Bambi and Jessica.

Maybe for myself too.

[chuckles]

Okay, so wait, wait.

Who in here is kind of cute for you?

- Nobody. Where's the ones you brought?

- Let's do it.

- Okay.

You single?

- Ready to mingle?

- I guess so.

Have you ever been engaged?

- Never.

- Check.

Married? - Never.

- Check.

- Are you a scammer or a drug dealer?

- Nah.

- Check, check, check, period.

Alpha's gonna do right by me.

Do you have a mother?

- Yes, I do.

- Oh.

Oh, hell nah.

[buzzer]

Bye, Alpha.

You need to come from God like Jesus Christ, okay?

Because I'm not dealing with no mamas.

Not even Mary.

Am I making you nervous?

Because I got to make you a little nervous,

at least a little bit.

Can I touch your beard a little bit?

Let me see.

I have a hair salon.

And we give, like, facials.

It's called, like, Baecials.

- Baecials? - Yeah.

- Okay, I might have to try that out.

- Yeah, you gotta come by the House of Shimmer.

- Is it just me, or I see Bambi and Alpha

having a good time talking over there,

getting to know each other? Yes!

It worked!

Bambi is back in the game.

Swoosh.

A match made in heaven.

- We ain't got no goddamn match.

- It ain't no match.

She ain't giving [bleep] for months.

So you'll have a dry [bleep] forever, baby.

You better start telling the truth now.

A long time is six months, baby.

You ain't getting no ass for a very long time.

Baby, I'ma go outside.

- Wait-- - I love you.

- My [bleep] is so [bleep], it don't matter

if you have dry [bleep].

I'm overflowing.

I keep flowing and going.

I'm the Chattahoochee River.

You just--we don't give up.

- But you're gonna have to just talk to me.

If you really want some [bleep] on your sister.

I love you, baby, because you done

came here with your little suave suit on.

And you came with your best answers.

You just got to be real, my [bleep].

What the [bleep] are you about?

- Are you done?

- No, no, no. Are you done?

Are you done with the lies?

- I haven't started yet.

- I blinked my eye.

And Jessica went from excited to, oh, my gosh, she is wasted.

Does she know I'm playing Cupid?

- Karlie, I'm out of here.

- Okay, okay.

- None of these [bleep] is for me.

- No, I did not.

That's where you mother[bleep] go wrong.

I did not [bleep] sit there and drink alone.

I arrived drunk.

Get my [bleep] story right.

Okay?

- What's up?

You lost, baby girl?

How are you?

- Hi.

- How you been?

- Been good.

- Good to see you.

- Who's that?

Hi.

- Nice to meet you.

- Nice to meet you too. - Summers. Nice to meet you.

- You've been knowing him for a minute?

- No, I-- - Damn.

- I'm just asking. - Sheesh.

- I mean, you look-- - It's a little too soon.

- I like your chain. - Thank you.

I appreciate it. - All right.

Y'all carry on. I'm going to the restroom.

I'll be right back. - I gotta--

I gotta appreciate this outfit real quick.

Let me see?

Okay.

Now you're looking-- you're looking right.

- I can't believe you showed up.

You flew all the way out here to see me?

- Wow, facts.

And let me tell you something.

It was hectic at the airport today.

- Summers just a good friend.

I've been honest, loyal, and faithful to Kai

up to this point.

Everyone knows Karlie's not getting played.

She is the player.

You think Kai is the only one with friends on speed dial?

- I just literally just came to see you.

- You don't have no plans tonight?

- You're my plans tonight.

- You promise?

- I promise.

Now let me show you.

- Is this a singles mixer or a sex party?

Because I'm about to shove a condom

between Karlie and Summers and head the hell on out of here.

- Coming up on "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta"...

- How's your energy today?

- Mm. - Let's get to the--what?

- Erica, where are you?

- You can't keep saying you're gonna get it together

and not doing it.

- Please.

Watch me closely.

And if I do fall short again, you got the right

to do whatever you want.

- I like y'all together.

- I'll be right back.

Because I know where you at.

I know where you at.

Let me get there, feel the vibe.

- I'm just scared that if we put them two around

each other, if they don't get on one accord,

then they're gonna be on some bull[bleep] every time.

It's gonna be a fight. - Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. - We just gotta--

- Hey. - Oh, hey, bool

- Hi! You look pretty.

I like this black hair on you. - Thank you.

I'm not really ready to have this

little pow-wow, sit-down conversation,

this come to Jesus moment with Erica.

But I definitely don't want the group

to feel like I'm the hold-up and I'm the one

keeping the tension going.

So I put my best foot forward and put

my big girl panties on, and sucked it up and tried.

- Erica--she was really kind of like,

I don't know how it went left.

She was like, I'm not really sure.

- She may not have deserved me hitting her.

- Yeah.

- But I feel like I was disrespected.

- How's your energy today? - Mm.

Let's get to the-- what?

You're so cute.

Don't play with me.

- It's clear from Renni's vibe that she still

got some unresolved issues with Erica.

I wanna make sure the bats and balls stay inside the cage

and not outside the cage

where this conversation should happen.

While we wait for Erica, let's hit some balls so we can,

like, let out some aggression.

Like, hit the ball so we don't have to hit each other.

- I don't know if I feel comfortable

with bats being here.

- Oh, yeah. I forgot about that.

- Go ahead, Sierra. You got this.

- Where are you standing? - Stay right there.

- You gotta toot it up.

[laughter]

- Hold on.

[cheering]

- Now you gotta run to the base.

Run to the base.

- No, no, no!

- Wrong way.

- Watch the ball! Watch the ball!

[laughter]

- Hold on. Wait a minute.

- You gotta keep swinging.

- Girl, give me that bat.

- Come on position. - Dang.

- Whoo! - Oh, no.

Wait a minute.

- She don't play no game.

- Oh, yeah.

- Oooh.

- Dear God, please let all the aggression

that Renni has towards Erica disappear

before Erica gets here.

And also, God, can you please let none of these balls

hit my face.

It costs a lot to look this good.

Amen.

- You good. - Good.

- I got a little pent-up tension.

- Yeah.

- Okay, now it's definitely been time.

- She didn't respond. Call her, like--

- Oh, hey.

- Erica. Where are you?

- Girl, I just finished my drink.

- What you mean? Where are you drinking at?

- I'm not pulling up today.

[bleep] ain't no pulling up and kumbaya-ing and all that.

- Why you ain't telling me you wasn't coming?

- I slept on it. I woke up. And I was like, you know what?

That ain't even me. - Okay.

- Hold on. Wait, wait, wait.

- It don't got nothing to do with you and Amy.

But I'm not doing it.

- You got beat up. It's okay.

We all gotta take an L sometimes.

- Sometimes you gotta put that [bleep] to the side.

- I don't think a batting cage... [scoffs]

Is the right place for a civil conversation.

Bats and bitches and swinging and--

I ain't never been to jail before!

And I don't wanna [bleep] go.

[chuckles]

- Let me talk to her.

But you know what, Erica?

It is making the friend group uncomfortable.

- I don't think y'all are putting

y'all selves in my shoes.

I don't think y'all are looking at it

like y'all are me.

- I think it's just a lot of pride and ego.

Sometimes, we gotta--

- I put my pride and ego to the side, and I came.

- I mean--but what do you--what do you want?

If you want the beef to continue, just say that

and I'll--and I'll shut up.

- You popping all that [bleep], you don't know

why you got knocked in it.

- So then--but that's the conversation.

You're having this conversation with me

when you could be having a conversation with her.

- We had words. We had a conversation.

We had a heated conversation.

I may have said something that, you know, triggered her

or that made her upset.

But that's no excuse.

- Renni is rolling on the floor.

Sierra ain't hitting no balls.

I rushed, cooked dinner, left my husband,

left my kids, all to hear that you're out

drinking and having a ball.

The least you could do, if I'm gonna show up,

you can show up.

I'm kind of pissed off right now.

- That mouth right there's the same [bleep]

that got her knocked in it.

Somebody take us to the boxing ring or something.

WWE really do need me.

- So since rap ain't working out for you, sis,

maybe you just need to go sign up

for sumo wrestling or something.

WWE--I don't even know if they're still a company.

But maybe we should call them for your big ass.

- Oh, God.

- Oh, my God.

Renni.

Okay, this concludes our session.

- I ain't got kids.

My healing ain't all the way done.

- I came out here to support Mazi

to pull up at this gas station/ convenience store parking lot,

and to see BLKLV, which was once in a store.

If this is the hustling that he thought I was talking

about doing, we gotta revisit this

and have another conversation.

What's going on?

What made you come today to set up?

- I ain't got no choice now.

But it's like, I'm doing what I can, man.

You see the stuff that I got ahead of me

with my daughter coming and all.

- I've been with this man for six years.

There's gonna be more excuses.

There's gonna be no real change.

It's simple--consistent bills, consistent partnership.

I can't depend on him the way he can depend on me.

It breaks my heart because this is to me my person.

Mazi, we need to talk.

I left you and broke up with you a year and a half ago.

So why I came back, I watched you from afar

and it looked like BLKLV was blossoming back up.

You had your merch in the store.

I drove past--I seen a billboard of you.

I'm like, it's working, God, because this is

the person I'm in love with.

You were the person that I always wanted.

So then, of course, guess what?

I unblocked you. We get back the [bleep] around.

Now you're with me every day, and now we're with each other.

But in these few months of being with you,

you're literally showing me again,

I'm not gonna take accountability.

The only thing I'm asking for is every month,

can you just give me half of the rent?

- I'm self-employed. I'm this--

- I'm self-employed. - I'm doing this [bleep].

I don't have the resources.

You got your whole family here.

I'm here by myself.

I've got none of that.

I have to watch my steps.

The reason we moved from the condo

is because of your success.

The reason we moved from the townhouse

was 'cause of your success.

- Yeah. - I never was stable.

- Why? But why, though? - And you're talking about

- --bills adding up. Come on, man.

Let's not--come on.

- But why weren't you stable? - What you mean?

- Why? - I was new to this [bleep].

I'm fresh out of the streets. - It's year seven!

- I don't give a [bleep]! I was no one!

How am I supposed to keep up with her financially,

and I don't have the same resources, family, support--

none of that in Atlanta?

Like, huh?

I'm really doing the best that I can.

You need to see that and just accept me for who I am.

- I don't really know where we go from here.

But I'm definitely tired.

I'm very tired.

- We've been making money six years.

I don't know why I mismanaged this.

I'm gonna get that together.

- You can't keep saying you're gonna get it together

and not doing it.

- I am, though.

- But you keep-- - I'm gonna stay consistent.

Please.

Watch me closely.

And if I do fall short again, you got the right

to do whatever you want.

- I've heard it too many times.

I would be a fool to believe it again.

I'm really hoping that everything that you're saying

you was gonna do for me, I hope

you start doing it for yourself,

because you really are a good person.

You really deserve so much better.

But actually, I do too.

- Well, wait, it's just done?

- It's just--it's done.

I'm still going to support from afar.

But I'm actually gonna start picking myself first.

- To give my heart, my--

like, all my heart to someone, and it seemed like they're

just holding it and just taking it away from you right now,

it's devastating.

It hurt. It hurt bad.

- Uh-uh. I'm not doing that.

- Coming up on "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta"...

- I'm gonna say my mother [bleep] piece!

I'm not [bleep] playing.

- Driving with someone with cheap jewelry.

- Stop it. Stop it. - No, no, no.

If he don't come with no flowers, he's gotta leave.

After that crazy singles mixer,

Karlie invites me on a double date now

with Summers and Alpha.

The kids are away, so why the [bleep] not?

- Y'all, I told you.

- [squealing]

- Okay.

- How you doing?

Come on, respectfully.

- You look beautiful, man. - They look beautiful.

- They are.

Normally, I won't be assisting my friends

while they're cheating.

But you know, she wanna get her lick back,

I'm gonna be right here while she get her lick back.

We were looking at your Instagram [bleep].

- Okay. - I was [bleep].

I was like, I don't like them flowers he's holding.

- Oh, yeah? - She was talking [bleep].

- You was holding flowers in your IG?

- Yeah, man. - I was just joking.

- You know, I was-- I'd be modeling.

So that was just-- - Let me see.

Hold the flower, like, on your face.

Period.

[laughter]

- Is that what y'all do? Do y'all look at IGs?

Like, yo, let me see this guy?

- Yeah, and I be talking that [bleep].

- Yeah, I'm looking at your IG.

I'm looking at who's following you.

I'm looking at who you like, whose pictures you're liking.

I'm looking at who you're liking.

I'm looking at everything. - Let me tell you something.

Social media gets you in trouble.

- Yeah, it does. - Yeah, so stay off it.

- No, listen. I do.

It's not even worth it, bro.

- Thank you. - It's not even worth it.

- That's what I'm talking about.

- It really ain't worth it, bro.

- [yelps]

- I haven't 100% ended it with Kai

because his [bleep] is still in the house.

But that didn't stop him from cheating on me.

I'm doing the same thing you're doing.

I'm going on a date with Summers.

How come men can do it?

I'm pulling a you on you.

- How you feel about her not over a situation,

but yet she's here on a date with you?

- Well, me and her got a different type

of relationship, you know what I mean?

We're kind of cool like that.

Like, she could be in a relationship,

going through what she's going through,

and I'll still be here, you know what I mean?

- But he wants to marry me. - What?

Karlie, what the hell do you got?

- We met--we locked eyes from across the room.

It's been like that ever since.

- Okay.

- I've always had men like Summers

who are very open about wanting me.

Unlike Kai, I've never taken them up on it.

But if Kai wants to keep women in his back pocket

and cheat on me, then I need to figure out

what these men are all about.

- Who's your friend, the crazy one?

- Um--okay. About her, she's not crazy.

- You done came here with your little suave suit on.

You just got to be be real [bleep].

What the [bleep] are you about?

- She's not like that at all. - I got the message, though.

She was just looking out for your best interest.

- Yeah.

- So how many women do you wanna be in a relationship

with at one time?

- I wanna build with one at one time.

- You basically just asked him if he wants to--

if he wants to indulge in, like, polygamy, basically.

- Oh, I've been in that.

I'm in that right now.

- Are you in polygamy right now?

- Oh, might as well be.

- Really? - [chuckles]

- I can't waste time on somebody who--

oh, they wanna make sure they want

to send rings to another girl.

They wanna make sure-- - Oh, wow.

That's what you going through? - Send rings?

- Oh, yeah, he sent some engagement ring

to another girl. - No freaking way.

- Yes, he did.

- Why are you still basically, like, straddling the fence?

- I'm not straddling the fence here with this situation

We have business-- - That's a good question.

[bleep] Bambi. Cheers, man.

- Cheers. - What the?

[laughs]

- Uh--hello, Bambi.

What's up, girl?

You're supposed to be on my side.

Kai and I are still in the house together

and we still work together.

So it's not that easy to walk away.

- She's asking the questions for me, you know what I mean?

I just gotta-- [laughs]

- You know--

- I'm still a girl's girl.

I like y'all together. [phone buzzing]

I love that connection. - Mm-hmm.

- For real? - Yeah.

- Mm-hmm. - Oh. I'll be right back.

[clears throat] - Oh.

[tense music]

- Mm-hmm?

- Um--I'm busy.

- Yeah, I'm at a friend's house having dinner with my friends.

- Uh, what is there to swirl around about?

- But you do whatever you want.

- You always do whatever you want.

Where you at?

Because I know where you at. You feel me?

I know where you at. That's the problem.

I know where you at. You feel me?

- Summers, Summers, Summers.

- You on a tracker, right? You on a tracker?

You got that much balls to be out here?

- ♪ Make my way to the top and it ain't no stoppin' ♪

- I don't even rock like that.

I don't even rock like that.

Where you at, though?

Where are you at?

Because I know where you at.

You feel me? I know where you at.

That's the problem.

I know where you at. You feel me?

- Summers, Summers, Summers.

- You on a tracker, right? You on a tracker?

You got that much balls to be out here?

What is this?

- We're having dinner. - Having dinner?

- Yeah. - It look like a date to me.

That looked like a date-- - It's homie time.

- It's homie time? - Yes, homie time.

- Well, why don't you introduce me to your homies?

Introduce me to your homies. I'ma go introduce myself.

- Come on. No, no, no.

- I'ma introduce myself.

- No, no, no, no. - What you talking about?

So it's gonna be a dinner for five, then.

Is it dinner for five or is it dinner for three?

- You're my crib, making a scene.

- Dinner for five, my boy. Yeah.

So listen, check this out. So I'm--

- You're in my crib, making a scene, bro.

- But listen. Check this out. I'ma share this with you.

It's all good because you got your tap dancing shoes on.

This is my broad. She giving you rhythm.

- You can't be mad at her for having taste.

- We're gonna have dinner.

- You're out there doing all type of with bitches.

- We're gonna have dinner. - Oh, no, no!

- Dinner for three or dinner for five?

- He is crazy. He came up to his house.

- I'ma be home in an hour.

I'ma be home in an hour. - You mad now.

- If you're not there, you know what it is.

- The same [bleep] you-- - You know what it is.

- I'm doing the same [bleep] that you do every [bleep] day.

- Karlie. Leave that [bleep] alone, man.

- Who you [bleep] tell.

[mumbling] - Hey. Check this out.

You can have it. Come on.

Get in the truck. Come on.

Come on, baby. - [yelling indistinctly]

- Don't worry about that.

You ain't got to worry about that.

Don't worry about that. We gonna holler at you.

- And now what?

I'ma say my mother[bleep] piece.

I'ma say my mother[bleep] piece!

I'm not [bleep] playing!

- Ma'am?

Ma'am, how can I help you?

- Stop the [bleep] car.

- You were having dinner with someone with cheap jewelry.

Bye-bye. You know the vibe.

- You deal with prostitutes. - So does Michael Jordan.

Back away from the car, ma'am.

- You mad because I got-- - No.

- Yeah. Oh, you mad.

Oh, you mad. - Do I look mad?

- Oh, you're definitely-- - Do I look mad?

I'm not mad at all. - Oh, you're mad.

- I love you. - Oh, you're mad.

I don't give a [bleep].

- You were having a private dinner.

- You're a cheater.

- A text message is not a cheat.

- Yes, text messages are [bleep] cheating.

You're a [bleep] cheater! - I literally just caught you.

- Where's she at? - Now you're mad?

You are a cheater, and you won't stop cheating.

And it [bleep] pisses me off.

So now he's mad that I was [bleep] going to [bleep].

Like, I wanna [bleep] some time?

- Can you please stop cheating on her?

- Listen. I promise you, Bambi.

I'm giving her my heart. - [yelps]

- Stop cheating on me! No.

- I'm just asking. I'm like Ali, baby.

Look at that. Stop it.

- No, no, no. Put that down.

- Stop it. - Wait a second.

I wanna say something.

[grunting]

- [sighs] I thought I had entered a phase in my life

where I wouldn't have to wrestle my friends

in the middle of a double date,

but clearly, I have not.

And Karlie is Karlie-ing.

Go! Go! Drive! - No, no, no, no!

[thud on glass] - Karlie!

- Oh, wow. - You threw your phone.

- Yes, because he's a [bleep] cheater.

I hate his ass.

- Can you throw her phone in the grass?

- I might. - Please.

- But listen-- - Please.

- Tell buddy with the cheap-ass jewelry

to buy you another one!

You go get your phone.

We holler at you. - You mother[bleep].

I'm gonna to beat his [bleep] ass--

- Later! - Mother[bleep]!

Came up, and he broke my mother[bleep] phone, bitch.

Our whole relationship, you've been cheating on me.

So now you mad?

Stand up!

You giving me [bleep]?

Now take that [bleep].

You [bleep], man.

- You're in front of this man's house asking a goddamn fool.

I will not stand for this if I just went out on a date

with you and you got a whole man over here.

You better start turning your [bleep] location off.

[tense music]

- Next on "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta"...

- You lied about what you're doing.

- I just lied because I didn't wanna have to go

through the bull[bleep]. - That's worse.

- Just behind the first mother[bleep] time.

- And I don't care what this one right here says.

Her and Karlie were like this. - Yeah.

- Maybe there's a world where Karlie needs to be

there for you for something.

God didn't put him in your life for no reason.

- Hi, Karlie.

- How did y'all feel about what Joc said?

About performing in front of gay people, turning it down?

- I just felt like it's inappropriate.

- I don't like clown [bleep].

- I just don't know if I should go

to someone's birthday party.

- I heard that he could have possibly been offended.

- Hey, y'all.

[tense music]
