I'M PUTTING OUT MY NEW SINGLE,

"LAST CALL,"

AND I CANNOT WAIT.

- GOOD. - YES, MA'AM.

IT'S FINALLY TIME TO HAVE HER FIRST HEADLINING TOUR.

AS SOON AS TAMAR TURNS AROUND,

WE ARE GONNA COME OUT.

I THINK TAMAR MIGHT BE UPSET.

I DON'T THINK SHE'S GONNA BE UPSET.

I--

WHEN SHE SEES US ONSTAGE WITH HER,

SHE'S GONNA BE HAPPY.

SHE WAS MAD.

SHE THREW THE WATER BOTTLE AT TRACI,

AND THEN SHE WAS LIKE, "IT'S NOT FUNNY."

SHE CALLED US M-F-ING B's.

"THEY DISRESPECT ME AS AN M-F-IN' ARTIST."

FOR THE SAKE OF THE SISTERHOOD,

WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED AT TAMAR'S SHOW,

EVEN IF IT'S NOT GONNA BE PRETTY.

I FEEL LIKE, IF ANYBODY OWES ANYBODY SOMETHING,

THE GIRLS SHOULD COME AND HOLLER AT ME.

"AND THIS IS HOW THIS ENDED UP."

YOU DON'T THINK THAT'S BAD

THAT YOUR PEOPLE KICKED YOUR SISTERS OUT?

TOUR MANAGER KICKED EVERYONE OUT.

EVERYONE'S SO ANGRY, AND I DON'T KNOW

WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN THIS TIME.

SHE PAVED THE WAY FOR ALL OF US.

YES, SHE DOES KNOW.

NOBODY PAVED THE WAY FOR ME.

YES, SHE DID.

JESUS PAVED THE WAY FOR ME!

OKAY, GUYS, ENOUGH-ENOUGH-ENOUGH.

- NO, TONI-- NO, STOP. - WHAT YOU MEAN BY, "20 YEARS?"

♪ WE ARE THE BRAXTONS AND YOU'LL SEE ♪

♪ THAT WE ARE NOT LIKE AN ORDINARY FAMILY ♪

♪ TONI TRACI TOWANDA TRINA TAMAR AND MISS E ♪

♪ WILL TEACH YOU A THING OR TWO ON BRAXTON FAMILY VALUES ♪

OKAY, GUYS, THAT'S ENOUGH.

THAT'S ENOUGH-- THAT'S IT-- THAT'S IT.

- NO, TONI-- NO, TONI-- NO. - WE DON'T EVEN CARE.

WELL, THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A CONVERSATION

ABOUT THE SINGLE, AND WE ALL AGREED

TO MOVE ON FROM THE DRAMA,

BUT HERE WE AGAIN, BUT WE'RE ALWAYS HERE.

THIS IS CRAZY.

- GO-- GO. - UH, T-TAMAR, GUESS WHAT.

YOU COULDN'T READ IF A BOOK WAS IN FRONT OF YOU.

SO, SIT DOWN!

OH, GIRL, I'VE READ YOU A MILLION TIMES, OKAY?

GUESS WHAT-- I DON'T EVEN HAVE THE TIME FOR IT.

- I CAN'T TELL. - YOU CAN, ACTUALLY.

OH, OKAY-- WELL, "T-E-L-L," BITCH.

HOW ABOUT THAT?

DID YOU JUST-- DID YOU JUST CALL ME A BITCH?

MMM-HMM.

WHY YOU GOTTA CALL HER THAT?

AM-AM I THE-- AM I THE SAME BITCH

THAT YOU PUT OUT DURING YOUR SHOW?

- WHOO! - I PUT YOU OUT? - YES, YOU DID.

I CAME TO YOU AND PUT YOU OUT?

NO, YOU HAD YOUR PRODUCTION PERSON PUT US OUT.

- I HAD? - YES-- YES, YOU DID.

OKAY, I SAID-- OH, WHAT'D I SAY?

BECAUSE HE SAID, "I HAVE BEEN INSTRUCTED TO PUT YOU OUT."

- FROM ME? - YES, HE DID.

- OKAY. - BECAUSE TRINA--

THROWING WATER BOTTLES AT YOUR SISTER?

OH, THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED?

AND TELLING THEM TO GET OFF THE --

YES, YOU DID.

I THREW A WATER BOTTLE AT MY SISTER?

NO, YOU-- NO, YOU THREW IT AT TRACI.

- I THREW IT AT TRACI? - YES, YOU DID-- DID SHE?

SEE, I DIDN'T THROW A WATER BOTTLE--

NO-- DID SHE?

YEAH, SHE DID THROW A WATER BOTTLE.

- DID SHE? - YEAH.

- AND THEN PUT US OUT. - I PUT YOU OUT?

- DID-DID SHE PUT OUT? - WE DID ALL GET PUT OUT.

IF VINCE OR I TOLD MY TOUR MANAGER TO TELL EVERYBODY,

"OKAY, I'M TOO UPSET, EVERYBODY GOTTA GO,"

AND THE TOUR MANAGER, HE'S TELLING EVERYBODY,

SISTER, MAMA, COUSIN, GYNECOLOGIST, WHOMEVER'S THERE,

"YOU GOTS TO GO," YOU KNOW?

I MEAN, HE DID THAT.

I MEAN, I HAVE NO EXPLANATION

FOR WHAT SOMEBODY ELSE DID TO YOU.

I CAN ONLY EXPLAIN WHAT I DID TO YOU PERSONALLY, SO...

AFTER THE SHOW, SHE WENT INTO HER DRESSING ROOM,

SHE CALLS HER ALL TYPES OF M-F'ING Bs.

EVERYBODY HEARD IT.

WE-- IT WAS EMBARRASSING.

AND THEN, WE--

I'M NOT DISRESPECTING YOU

AND WHO YOU ARE AS AN ARTIST.

I APPRECIATE WHAT YOU HAVE DONE FOR THIS MUSIC INDUSTRY.

I'M NOT TRYING TO ERASE THE FACT

THAT I WAS YOUR BACKGROUND SINGER FOR 20 YEARS.

I'M JUST SAYING THAT I DON'T FEEL LIKE YOU MADE ME.

I'M SORRY, BECAUSE I HAD FOUR RECORD DEALS BEFORE NOW,

AND IF IT WAS THE POINT OF ME

BEING TONI BRAXTON'S BACKGROUND SINGER NOR SISTER,

I WOULD'VE BEEN PUT ON 15 YEARS AGO.

THAT IS NOT THE POINT.

YOU CAN TAP, TOWANDA.

I-I'M-- STOP-STOP-STOP.

BE QUIET!

TWENTY YEARS-- IT HAD NOTHING TO DO

WITH TONI BRAXTON, 'CAUSE IF THAT WAS THE CASE,

I HAD FOUR RECORD DEALS BEFORE NOW, OKAY?

AND ALL I'M SAYING IS, I BUSTED MY ASS,

AND ONE AND TWO HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH EACH OTHER.

NO ONE'S DEBATING THAT, TAMAR, BUT GUESS WHAT.

BUT-BUT-BUT, WHO ARE YOU-- - GOD BLESS YA

AND GOOD NIGHT AND-- - AND-AND-AND GOOD NIGHT, TAMAR.

I MEAN, REALLY, NO DISRESPECT

TO TONI BRAXTON-- SHE IS A LEGEND.

BUT, I FOUGHT MY WHOLE LIFE TO BE AN INDIVIDUAL ARTIST,

AND IF MY SISTERS HAS, YOU KNOW, ANY RESPECT,

THEN THEY WOULDN'T HAVE PULLED NO STUNT LIKE THAT

DURING MY SHOW IN ATLANTA.

IT JUST MAKES IT LOOK-- LOOK WE, AS A UNIT,

ARE SEPARATED AND SEGREGATED,

AND I DON'T LIKE THAT.

AND FOR THE RECORD, NO ONE SAID THAT YOU MADE US.

I AM-- I'M SAYING THAT YOU PAVED THE WAY.

ABSOLUTELY-ABSOLUTELY.

YOU MADE BRAXTON A HOUSEHOLD NAME.

IF YOU DON'T RESPECT THE NAME,

AND WHAT TONI HAS BUILT AS FAR AS HER CAREER,

AND AS FAR AS HER HELPING OUR FAMILY,

THEN BE TAMAR HERBERT AND NOT TAMAR BRAXTON.

- WELL, TAMAR DOESN'T-- - YOU CAN'T NEGATE THAT.

SHE DOESN'T-- SHE WANTS TO BE INDIVIDUALIZED.

AND THAT'S FINE.

I FEEL LIKE I'VE DONE EVERYTHING I CAN TO HELP,

'CAUSE YOU GUYS ARE TALENTED, FOR PEOPLE TO SEE.

I FEEL LIKE I'VE DONE EVERY-- I CAN'T DO ANYTHING ELSE,

BUT I'M NOT GONNA APOLOGIZE FOR MY TALENT EITHER.

EXACTLY.

WHAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO DO?

JUST STAY AT HOME AND NOBODY WOULD HAVE ANYTHING?

WE WOULDN'T EVEN HAVE "BRAXTON FAMILY VALUES."

WE'D HAVE NOTHING. - THAT'S TRUE-- NO, THAT'S TRUE.

WE WOULD ALL BE HOME... I'D BE A TEACHER,

WHICH THERE'S NOTHING WRONG BEING A TEACHER.

I THINK IT'S A GREAT THING.

BUT, WE WOULDN'T BE HERE TODAY.

LET ME JUST PUT IT TO YOU THIS WAY.

IF IT WASN'T FOR "BRAXTON FAMILY VALUES,"

YOU WOULDN'T KNOW WHO TAMAR BRAXTON IS.

AND IF IT WASN'T FOR TONI BRAXTON,

WE WOULDN'T HAVE A "BRAXTON FAMILY VALUE."

I'M JUST SAYIN'.

I CAN'T KEEP APOLOGIZING FOR BEING CHOSEN.

I CAN'T-- I REFUSE TO DO IT.

AND YOU GUYS CAN'T LET THAT SITUATION,

THAT YOU KNOW WAS GENUINE IN YOUR HEART,

MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE POO

ABOUT SOMETHING YOU WERE TRYING TO DO FOR YOUR SISTER.

I FEEL LIKE I'M OWED AN APOLOGY,

AND THAT'S JUST WHAT IT IS,

BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT GONNA CALL ME A M-F'ING B...

- RIGHT. - ...FOR SHOWING SUPPORT.

AND IF THAT'S NOT THE KINDA SUPPORT THAT YOU WANT,

THEN SAY, "YOU KNOW WHAT?

"CAN YOU HAVE MY SISTERS COME IN HERE?"

AS OPPOSED TO, "CAN YOU PUT MY SISTERS OUT?"

THINGS ARE JUST NOT GONNA BE THE SAME WITH TAMAR

UNTIL WE GET AN APOLOGY.

WHAT WE DID AT HER CONCERT MIGHT'VE BEEN A MISTAKE,

BUT IT WAS NOT OUT OF MALICE.

AND WITH TAMAR JUST WALKING AWAY FROM THIS CONVERSATION,

WE HAVE TO ASK OURSELVES,

HOW ARE WE EVER GONNA RECORD THIS SINGLE?

I MEAN, HOW DO YOU HAVE A SISTER SINGLE

WITHOUT ALL THE SISTERS?

- HEY, DAD. - HEY, CHICA.

- HOW YA DOIN'? - I'M DOIN' PRETTY GOOD.

HOW ABOUT YOU, BABY? - I'M ALL RIGHT.

I'M CALLING DADDY BECAUSE THE WHOLE ATLANTA THING

IS A MESS, AND HE ALWAYS GIVES GOOD ADVICE.

DAD?

WHAT'S THE MATTER, BABY?

I GOT INTO AN ARGUMENT WITH TAMAR.

OH, WHAT- WHAT HAPPENED, BABY?

WELL, REMEMBER I TOLD YOU ABOUT THE WHOLE THING,

YOU KNOW, WITH ATLANTA AND HER PUTTING US OUT

OF HER CONCERT?

AND THEN, WE WENT TO DINNER,

AND IT BLEW UP, AGAIN.

AND IT'S JUST-- IT'S REALLY TENSE NOW.

AND I LOVE HER-- I LOVE HER, I LOVE HER--

BUT, I JUST CAN'T EVEN TALK TO HER RIGHT NOW

WITHOUT AN APOLOGY.

WELL, I THINK YOU-YOU HAVE, UH, THE RIGHT TO SAY,

"I DON'T APPRECIATE THE WAY HOW YOU TALKED TO ME."

MMM-HMM.

RESPECT SHOULD ALWAYS BE THERE.

EXACTLY.

I'M ABOUT TO GO TO THE ESSENCE FESTIVAL

'CAUSE I'M DOING SOME THINGS THERE,

AND SHE'S DOING SOME THINGS THERE,

AND THAT'S MY SISTER-- I LOVE HER,

AND I'M GOING TO BE NICE,

BUT I CAN'T MAKE ANY PROMISES THAT WE'LL HANG OUT

LIKE WE USUALLY DO, UNLESS WE HAVE SOME KIND OF CONVERSATION.

YES, SIR.

OH, TRACI'S DOING HER VIDEO, AND SHE WANTS US

ALL TO BE THERE.

SINCE ALL OF US ARE IN L.A. ANYWAY,

YOU MIGHT AS WELL JUST COME AND SEE ALL OF US,

AND MAYBE WE CAN HAVE A NICE LITTLE FAMILY TALK.

THAT'D BE GREAT.

I THINK DAD NEEDS TO MAKE A TRIP OUT THERE TO L.A.

WHEN I GET OUT THERE,

WE'RE GONNA GET THIS STRAIGHTENED OUT.

WE'RE GONNA NIP THIS IN THE BUD.

ALL RIGHT, DADDY-O.

I LOVE YOU.

OKAY.

TAMAR!

SO, I'M HERE AT THE ESSENCE FESTIVAL

IN NEW ORLEANS, WHERE I'M ONE OF THE HEADLINERS

FOR 20,000 FANS AT THE SUPERDOME.

BUT, YOU KNOW, BEFORE ALL OF THAT,

I HAVE A Q&A WITH TRINA,

AND SINCE OUR ARGUMENT AT DINNER IN ATLANTA,

I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT.

SO, YOU KNOW, I'M JUST GONNA SHOW UP

AND BE ME AND BE PROFESSIONAL.

WHAT'S THE TEA?

- WE'RE GONNA WALK. - YEAH.

WHEN I GOT THERE, THERE WAS NO GOLF CART.

SO, YOU KNOW, I MEAN, AT THE END OF THE DAY,

NOTHING IS GOING TO KEEP ME FROM MY JOB.

SO, THEREFORE, SHE'S GONNA RUN THROUGH THE TUNNELS,

THE RAILROAD TRACKS, WHEREVER SHE GOT TO GO,

YOU KNOW, TO GET, YOU KNOW,

TO HER TAMARTIAN FRIENDS AND STUFF.

OKAY, DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHICH WAY WE GO?

EVERYBODY'S ALREADY DOWN HERE.

WELL, COME ON.

IT'S TOO LATE-- WHAT DOOR WE GOING TO?

THEY'RE-THEY'RE-THEY'RE GONNA GO RIGHT DOWN, BABY.

OH, OKAY.

A GOOD WAYS?

THAT'S HOW YOU MAKE A GRAND ENTRANCE.

SO, TAMAR, WE WERE JUST TALKING ABOUT ALL YOUR SUCCESS,

BUT YOU-YOU-YOU KIND OF-- THERE'S SOME TENSION

WITH TOWANDA, AND MAYBE YOU'RE FEELING LIKE

SHE'S NOT SUPPORTING YOU AS MUCH

AS SOME OF YOUR OTHER SISTERS.

OTHER SISTER-- TRINA?

- OH. - NO SHADE.

WHAT?

COMING UP, ON "BRAXTON FAMILY VALUES"...

I THOUGHT YOU WERE GONNA STAY.

I HAVEN'T SEEN MY SON IN A MONTH, TAMAR.

EVEN THOUGH THERE'S STILL A LOT OF TENSION

WITH US RIGHT NOW, YOU WANT YOUR FAMILY THERE

FOR YOUR, YOU KNOW, BIGGEST MOMENTS.

YOU ROLLING, TOM?

I'M SO EXCITED THAT MY SISTERS HAVE AGREED

TO BE IN MY MUSIC VIDEO.

YOU'RE GONNA PULL A GROWN MAN IN FROM OUTSIDE

AND JUST HAVE HIM COME IN AND SAY, "OOH, TRACI, YOUR BOYFRIEND"--

- IT'S NOT YOUR VIDEO. - I'M JUST ASKING.

I JUST WANNA KNOW MY SCENE WITH THE--

SO,

SO, TAMAR,

SO, TAMAR, THERE'S

SO, TAMAR, THERE'S SOME

SO, TAMAR, THERE'S SOME TENSION

SO, TAMAR, THERE'S SOME TENSION WITH

SO, TAMAR, THERE'S SOME TENSION WITH TOWANDA,

AND MAYBE YOU'RE FEELINGE LIKE SHE'S NOT SUPPORTING YOU

AS MUCH AS SOME OF YOUR OTHER SISTERS.

OTHER SISTER-- TRINA?

- OH. - NO SHADE.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND-- WHAT?

I WAS JUST KINDA PIGGYBACKING

WHERE EVERYBODY SAW US WITH THAT LAST SEASON

WHEN TRINA AND I WERE SITING DOWN AND HAVING A CONVERSATION,

AND I WAS SAYING HOW I FEEL LIKE SHE'S THE ONLY ONE

WHO REALLY SUPPORTS ME AND COME OUT AND SEE ME,

AND I JUST DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHY.

AFTER LOGAN'S BIRTH, AIN'T NOBODY CALL ME.

ONLY PERSON THAT CAME TO SEE ME AT THE HOSPITAL

WAS YOU AND TONI.

MY SISTERS THAT I KNEW, THAT I GREW UP WITH,

WOULD HAVE BEEN HERE.

BUT, YOU KNOW, WITH SISTERS, YOU KNOW,

YOU GO THROUGH THINGS.

AND, YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU GROW UP,

YOU KINDA GOTTA FIGURE OUT

WHERE YOU FIT IN EACH OTHER'S LIVES,

AND THAT'S NOT SHADE, PER SE.

YOU JUST GOTTA FIGURE OUT WHERE YOU FIT.

I ALWAYS THOUGHT I WAS VERY SUPPORTIVE OF HER,

BUT I'M LISTENING TO TAMAR,

AND I'M THINKING THE IRONY IS,

I DON'T KNOW HOW I FIT INTO TAMAR'S LIFE ANYMORE.

YOU-YOU-YOU GUYS ARE STILL IN A GOOD PLACE

WITH EACH OTHER AS SISTERS AND AS A FAMILY, RIGHT?

ALWAYS.

YEAH, WE LOVE EACH OTHER.

YOU KNOW, I MEAN, ARE RELATIONSHIPS

AS TIGHT AS THEY USED TO BE?

NO.

Y'ALL BETTER STOP CALLING MY MAN.

I'M JUST--

HI, VINCE-- 'KAY.

WHEN-WHEN YOU'RE BEING THE BABY,

AND ALL OF THE SISTERS ARE LIKE, "OH, SHE'S A BRAT,

"SHE'S A BRAT," YOU DON'T COME ACROSS TO ME AS-AS THAT.

I AIN'T NEVER BEEN NO BRAT.

Y'ALL TRYING ME TODAY.

THEY-- LOOK, THEY SAY THAT WITH LOVE, RIGHT?

I JUST FEEL LIKE I WAS, LIKE, OUTSPOKEN, RIGHT?

YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES YOU JUST GOTTA SHUT THE HELL UP,

YOU KNOW?

AND, YOU KNOW, SOMEBODY-- - HALLE-LOO!

I'M-I'M-- THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I'M HEARING THIS.

I-I'M ABOUT TO GET HAPPY.

I'M ABOUT TO SHOUT.

GO GET YOUR LIFE-- GET YOUR LIFE.

IT'S SUNDAY-- GET IT.

HALLE-HALLE-LOO!

HALLE-LOO.

NO, REALLY, I HAD TO LEARN THAT, YOU KNOW?

AND I ALSO WANT TO HAVE A CLOSE RELATIONSHIP

WITH MY SISTERS.

SO, THEREFORE, I GOT TO SHUT THE HELL UP,

OR WAIT TILL THEY ASK ME, AND THEN LIE TO 'EM.

WELL, ONE-ONE THING WE CAN DEFINITELY SAY,

IT-IT'S SINCERE WHERE YOU'RE COMING FROM, TAMAR,

AS A PERSON, AND THAT'S ALL YOU WANTED,

WAS THE LOVE AND SUPPORT FROM YOUR FAMILY.

Y'ALL GIVE IT UP ONE MORE TIME, TAMAR AND TRINA BRAXTON.

TAMAR SAYING THAT SHE HAS TO SHUT THE HELL UP SOMETIMES,

SO SHE CAN HAVE A GOOD RELATIONSHIP

WITH HER SISTERS,

THAT JUST ABOUT KNOCKED ME OUT OF MY CHAIR.

I CAN'T REMEMBER A TIME SHE EVER SAID ANYTHING LIKE THAT BEFORE,

AND AS THEY SAY, I'LL BELIEVE IT WHEN I SEE IT.

UNTIL THEN, NOTHING'S CHANGED,

AND I'M READY TO GO HOME.

I THOUGHT YOU WERE GONNA STAY.

JENNIFER, HOW MANY TIMES MY C-- MY-- DID MY SONS CALL ME ARGUING?

HI, GUYS.

WELL, WHY DON'T YOU JUST SEND 'EM OVER TO MOMMY'S HOUSE?

THAT-THAT-THAT'S HAD TO HAPPEN.

THEY HAD TO GO TO MOMMY'S HOUSE TO SEPARATE THEM.

I HAVEN'T SEEN MY SON IN A MONTH, TAMAR, A MONTH.

WELL, YOU'LL BE HOME IN THE MORNING.

WE'RE LEAVING RIGHT AFTER THE SHOW.

- NO, I HAVE TO-- - I'M UBER DISAPPOINTED

TRINA'S NOT STAYING.

EVEN THOUGH THERE'S STILL A LOT OF TENSION WITH US

RIGHT NOW, I MEAN, IT DOESN'T REALLY TAKE AWAY

THE FACT THAT YOU WANT YOUR FAMILY THERE

FOR YOUR, YOU KNOW, BIGGEST MOMENTS.

IT'S GONNA BE FANTASTIC.

BUT, NONE OF Y'ALL ARE GONNA BE HERE.

YOU SAID YOU WERE STAYING.

NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS BETWEEN ME AND MY SISTERS

IN THE PAST, I ALWAYS REALLY TRY TO MAKE A EFFORT

TO MEND FENCES AND, YOU KNOW, REACH OUT TO EVERYBODY.

BUT, IF THEY DON'T RESPOND TO ME, I--

WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO?

I DON'T WANNA FIGHT WITH THEM NO MORE.

HELLO, EVERYBODY.

I'M YOUR GIRL, TAMAR BRAXTON.

NOW, IT TOOK ME A LONG TIME TO FIGURE OUT

JUST WHAT KIND OF FEMALE TAMARTIAN I REALLY AM,

OKAY?

AND WHAT I CONCLUDED ABOUT ME IS,

IF YOU'RE NOT GONNA GIVE ME ALL OF YOU--

I'M A REAL SELFISH HEIFER.

I DON'T WANT A LITTLE BIT

THERE'S ONE LAST SHOT WHERE SHE OPENS THE DOOR,

AND THAT'S IT.

I'M FEELING GOOD RIGHT NOW,

AND I'M ABOUT TO FEEL BETTER

BECAUSE IT'S TIME FOR THE FINAL SCENE

WITH ME AND MY SISTERS,

WHO I'M HOPING WILL BE HERE ANY MINUTE.

THEY'RE ALWAYS LATE.

I MEAN, NOT THAT ANYBODY HAS EVER CAME

TO ANY OF MY VIDEO SHOOTS IN MY LIFE.

I DECIDED I WAS GONNA GO TO TRACI'S VIDEO

AND BE IN HER VIDEO BECAUSE SHE ASKED ME.

- HEY, TREE-TREE. - HEY, TRAY-RAY.

THANK YOU FOR COMING.

I MEAN, I FIGURE-- WHERE'S THE ALCOHOL?

IT'S THE LAST CALL.

WHERE'S THE ALCOHOL AT?

IT'S VERY IMPORTANT FOR ME TO COME AND SUPPORT TRACI.

I KNOW, IN THE PAST, SHE DIDN'T ALWAYS FEEL LIKE

HER TALENT WAS APPRECIATED IN THIS FAMILY,

BUT WE'RE ALL EXCITED ABOUT HER UPCOMING ALBUM,

AND WE'RE ALL HERE FOR HER FIRST VIDEO.

WELL, TRACI, HOW DOES IT FEEL

SHOOTING YOUR FIRST VIDEO?

OH, GREAT-- I HAD FUN.

YOU HAD FUN?

OH, Y'ALL BITCHES IS DRESSED UP!

Y'ALL GOT ME .

I GOT ON SEA GREEN HEELS AND JEANS.

Y'ALL GOTTA GO!

AS AN OLDER SISTER, I'M REALLY PROUD OF TRACI.

I THINK THIS MOMENT FOR TRACI IS A MOMENT FOR HER

TO SHINE, AND IT'S IMPORTANT FOR HER

TO FEEL INDIVIDUALIZED AS AN ARTIST, AS WELL.

THIS IS WHAT WE'RE DOING.

YOU THREE ARE GOING TO ANSWER THE DOOR,

AND THEN YOU'RE GOING TO BASICALLY DRAG HIM IN

AND SAY, "TRACI, YOU KNOW, SOMEONE'S HERE FOR YOU."

- OKAY. - THAT'S PRETTY MUCH IT.

WE'RE GONNA PULL A GROWN MAN IN FROM OUTSIDE

AND JUST HAVE HIM COME IN AND SAY, "OOH, TRACI, YOUR BOYFRIEND."

- IT'S NOT YOUR VIDEO. - I'M JUST ASKING.

I JUST WANNA KNOW MY SCENE.

DON'T-- YEAH, EXACTLY, PRETTY MUCH THAT.

OKAY-- OKAY, IT'S YOUR VIDEO.

DO WHAT YOU WANT.

OKAY, WE ALL KNOW TAMAR.

I HAD TO REMIND HER ONCE OR TWICE IT'S NOT HER VIDEO.

CAN WE FOCUS?

YOU KNOW, BUT IT'S JUST TAMAR.

- CAMERA SPEEDS! - ACTION!

OKAY.

THE CONCEPT OF THE SCENE THAT WE'RE IN IS,

TRACI HAS A DATE, AND WE ANSWER THE DOOR,

BEING THE NOSY SISTERS THAT WE ARE.

ALTHOUGH, I THOUGHT THE GUY LOOKED A BIT YOUNG.

WE'RE IN THE SANDBOX ON THAT VIDEO, TRACI.

THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THE SANDBOX.

I PLAY IN IT, OCCASIONALLY.

TRACI!

ALL RIGHT, COOL-- CUT!

THEY'RE NOT SHOWING HIS FEET.

A JUNIOR MINT REALLY MEANS, LIKE, A YOUNG BOY.

HE WAS JUST BOYISH, NOT MANISH.

BUT, YOU KNOW, JUNIOR MINT COULD MEAN TINY PEE-PEE.

THAT'S A WRAP!

YAY!

CONGRATS.

THIS DAY HAS BEEN PERFECT.

EVEN THOUGH WE'VE HAD OUR PROBLEMS LATELY,

I'M SO HAPPY TO HAVE MY SISTERS HERE TO SUPPORT ME.

SEE YOU LATER.

WHILE MY DAD WAS TRAVELING FROM BALTIMORE TO L.A.

ON THE PLANE, HE GOT SICK, AND HE PASSED OUT,

AND THEY BELIEVE HE HAD A SEIZURE.

AND WHEN HE CAME TO, THEY ASKED HIM IF HE WAS OKAY,

AND HE HAD NO IDEA WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM.

SO, WHEN MY FATHER LANDED,

WE TOOK DADDY TO THE HOSPITAL.

I'M JUST PRAYING THAT MY FATHER'S OKAY.

TO HEAR THAT SOMETHING SO TERRIFYING

HAPPENED TO YOUR FATHER,

AND YOU HAVE NO EXPLANATION FOR IT,

IT'S REALLY SCARY.

IT'S SO LUCKY THAT ME AND MY SISTERS

ARE ALL IN L.A. RIGHT NOW,

SO WE CAN BE HERE FOR DADDY.

IF THIS IS SERIOUS, IT WOULD BE DEVASTATING

TO ALL OF US.

- HI, DADDY. - HI, GUYS.

HEY, SUGAR.

WE'RE GOING TO THE HOSPITAL TO CHECK ON MY DAD.

THEY SAY THEY WAS RUNNING TESTS,

SO WE NEED TO FIND OUT WHAT'S GOING ON WITH HIM.

- HI. - Y'ALL HAVE ROOM FOR ME?

I'M THINKING TO MYSELF THAT I DONE--

I DONE BIT THE BULLET.

I GOT THE BIG ONE.

YOU KNOW, I-I WAS - I WAS, FOR THE FIRST TIME

IN A LONG TIME, I WAS REALLY AFRAID OF MY HEALTH.

WELL, YOUR GIRLS ARE WORRIED TO DEATH.

I KNOW.

I KNOW IT.

YOU KNOW, A LOT OF TIMES, WHEN YOU SEE SOMETHING

HAPPENING TO YOUR FAMILY MEMBER,

YOU FORGET ABOUT ALL OF THE RIFF THAT'S GOING ON,

AND YOU JUST KINDA COME TOGETHER WITH LOVE.

I JUST HOPE THAT WE'RE ABLE TO DO THAT WITH DADDY.

- LOOK AT GOD. - WON'T HE DO IT.

IT'S ALMOST 8 O'CLOCK.

YOU KNOW, I HATE WHEN PEOPLE ARE LATE FOR DINNER PARTIES

OR, YOU KNOW, DINNER BECAUSE YOUR FOOD OVERCOOKS.

- THAT'S TRUE. - IT DRIVES ME TO DRINK.

LOGAN!

DADDY!

THERE'S MY FELLAS.

HI-HI! - HEY.

OH, DAD, I'M GLAD TO SEE YOU HOME.

AH, IT WAS TOUGH.

CAN YOU SAY, "HI, POP-POP?"

SINCE THEY DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING SERIOUSLY WRONG

WITH MY DAD, THANK GOD,

HE WAS ABLE TO COME HOME WITH US TODAY.

SO, TO CELEBRATE, I INVITED ALL OF MY SISTERS

OVER FOR A BIG FAMILY DINNER,

AND I TOLD EVERYBODY TO BE AT THE HOUSE AT AROUND 7:00-ISH,

BUT IT'S 8:00, AND NOBODY HERE.

WELL, DAD, ME AND MOM BEEN COOKING ALL DAY,

AND IT'S NO GIRLS.

SO, IT'S JUST US.

- NO GIRLS? - NO.

NO GIRLS.

WELL, GOOD BREAD, GOOD MEAT, GOOD GOD, LET'S EAT.

I MEAN, YEAH, I SAY WE EAT WITHOUT THE GIRLS

'CAUSE EVERYTHING IS GETTING OVERCOOKED.

NOW, I AM NOT HAPPY ABOUT THE FACT THAT I GOT STOOD UP

AGAIN BY MY SISTERS.

I MEAN, AT THE END OF THE DAY, IT'S ABOUT RESPECT

FOR MY FATHER, NOT ABOUT ME.

TOWANDA, CAN I GET YOU SOMETHIN'?

CAN I GET YOU A PIECE OF CHICKEN, GIRL?

YOU SURE?

ALL RIGHT.

LET ME KNOW IF THAT BEER'S COLD ENOUGH.

HOWEVER, I FEEL LIKE MAYBE THIS IS A GOOD TIME

TO TALK TO MY MOM AND DAD BECAUSE THERE'S SOMETHIN'

THAT HAS BEEN WEIGHING ON ME,

AND I THINK THAT TALKING TO THEM NOW

WOULD REALLY BE HELPFUL.

SO, I GUESS NOW THAT I GOT Y'ALL ALONE,

I SHOULD ASK Y'ALL A QUESTION.

I NEED SOME SERIOUS-- - WHAT'S THE MATTER?

I NEED TO KNOW HOW Y'ALL FEEL ABOUT SOMETHIN'.

WELL, YOU KNOW ALL THE BICKERING, AND ARGUING,

AND FIGHTING ME AND MY SISTERS HAVE BEEN DOIN'.

I DON'T THINK THAT WE SHOULD WORK TOGETHER.

COMING UP, ON "BRAXTON FAMILY VALUES"...

YOU KNOW, I HATE WHEN PEOPLE ARE LATE

FOR DINNER PARTIES.

WE BROUGHT THE CRABS.

BUT, Y'ALL ARE THREE HOURS LATE.

- NO. - YES.

I'M NOT GONNA LET HER FINISH!

YOU KNOW ALL THE BICKERING, AND ARGUING,

AND FIGHTING ME AND MY SISTERS HAVE BEEN DOIN'.

I DON'T THINK THAT WE SHOULD WORK TOGETHER.

I FEEL LIKE, YOU KNOW, I-I SHOULD ELIMINATE MYSELF

BECAUSE I WANNA ELIMINATE THE DRAMA.

I AM NOT IN ANY WAY SAYING I DON'T LIKE WORKING

WITH MY SISTERS, BUT EVERYBODY HAS SAID THE ISSUE IS ME.

SO, I THINK REMOVING MYSELF FROM THE SITUATION,

NOT FROM THE SISTERHOOD, BUT, YOU KNOW,

FROM THE DRAMA

WILL HELP HEAL THE RELATIONSHIP

BETWEEN MY SISTERS AND I.

IT

IT HAS

IT HAS BEEN

IT HAS BEEN TAMAR

IT HAS BEEN TAMAR VERSUS

IT HAS BEEN TAMAR VERSUS EACH

IT HAS BEEN TAMAR VERSUS EACH AND

IT HAS BEEN TAMAR VERSUS EACH AND EVERY

IT HAS BEEN TAMAR VERSUS EACH AND EVERY ONE

IT HAS BEEN TAMAR VERSUS EACH AND EVERY ONE OF

IT HAS BEEN TAMAR VERSUS EACH AND EVERY ONE OF MY

IT HAS BEEN TAMAR VERSUS EACH AND EVERY ONE OF MY SISTERS,

IAND I DON'T WANT THAT-- EACH THAT'S NOT A GOOD FEELING.S,

I FEEL LIKE, YOU KNOW,

A LOT OF EVERYBODY GET AWAY WITH EVERYTHING.

WHEN IT COMES TO TAMAR, IT'S LIKE A BIG DEAL,

YOU KNOW?

LIKE, IF I WOULDA THREW THOSE GLASSES UP IN MOMMY'S FACE--

NOBODY EVER CARED ABOUT HOW TOWANDA FELT!

NOBODY CARED ABOUT ME!

THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A SERIOUS ISSUE

IN THIS FAMILY.

IT WOULD'VE BEEN ME VERSUS THE WHOLE FAMILY.

IT'S JUST SHADE ALL DAY, AND I CAN'T.

AND I DON'T REALLY WANT THAT KIND OF RELATIONSHIP

WITH MY SISTERS.

WHY DON'T YOU WORK ON GETTING IT TOGETHER?

HOW?

I'VE TRIED.

I FEEL LIKE I'VE DONE ALL I CAN DO.

I CAN'T MAKE OTHER PEOPLE FEEL THE WAY THAT I FEEL.

I CAN'T MAKE OTHER PEOPLE HAVE ENOUGH.

LIKE, I-- LIKE, I'M-I'M DONE.

I'M TAPPED OUT.

I'LL TELL YOU ONE THING ABOUT WORDS.

ONCE YOU LET WORDS COME OUT YOUR HOUSE--

OUT YOUR MOUTH, CAN'T TAKE 'EM BACK.

MOM, GO AHEAD,

'CAUSE YOU'RE ABOUT TO BITE YOUR TONGUE.

YOU KNOW, THE STUFF THAT COMES OUT YOUR MOUTH,

THE NAME CALLING THAT YOU GUYS HAVE,

I MEAN, THAT'S RIDICULOUS.

I AGREE.

THAT-THAT IS PATHETIC.

SO, WE CAN PRAY DAY AND NIGHT,

BUT YOU GUYS HAVE TO WANNA CHANGE.

I'M SO DISAPPOINTED.

WHAT HAPPENED WHEN THESE GIRLS TRIED TO DO

THE SISTER ALBUM IS JUST A PERFECT EXAMPLE

OF HOW THEIR ACTIONS CAN BE JUST HARMFUL.

THESE GIRLS HAVE LET THINGS GO TOO FAR.

I DON'T HAVE WORDS TO DESCRIBE HOW DISAPPOINTED

AND BROKENHEARTED I AM.

THE PAST DAY I WAS IN THE HOSPITAL,

Y'ALL DIDN'T TALK ABOUT WHAT SOMEONE SAID OR WHAT SOMEONE DID.

I DON'T WANT TO BE SICK OR YOUR MOTHER BE SICK

FOR Y'ALL TO RALLY TOGETHER,

AND THAT'S THE WAY YOU GOTTA THINK ON THINGS, TAMAR.

SO, THAT'S WHY I THINK MY DECISION IS JUST.

- TO LEAVE OUT THE-- - OH, DEFINITELY,

BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE IF WE KEEP DOING THIS,

THEN IT'S STILL GONNA BE DRAMA, AFTER DRAMA,

AFTER DRAMA, AFTER DRAMA.

THEN WHY DON'T YOU JUST-- WHY DON'T YOU GET--

WHY DON'T YOU GET TOGETHER?

AND TAMAR VERSUS, TAMAR VERSUS, TAMAR VERSUS,

TAMAR VERSUS-- AND I CAN'T.

I'M REALLY RELUCTANT TO TELL MY SISTERS BECAUSE,

YOU KNOW, I DON'T WANT TO HURT NOBODY,

AND I DON'T WANNA BE, YOU KNOW,

THE CENTER OF AN ARGUMENT, AGAIN.

SO, I'M JUST GONNA SHUT THINE ASS,

LIKE I'VE BEEN PRACTICING, JUST FOR NOW.

- HEY! - HI, KIDS.

- HOLA. - WE BROUGHT THE CRABS.

WHY DON'T Y'ALL PUT 'EM ON THE, UH--

PUT 'EM ON THE COUNTER?

THE COUNTER, 'CAUSE Y'ALL ARE THREE HOURS LATE.

- NO. - YES.

OH, TRINA, WHERE YOU BEEN?

TO THE HOSPITAL WITH YOU.

I HAVEN'T BEEN HOME YET.

WE WERE LATE FOR DINNER AT TAMAR'S BECAUSE IT TOOK

A LITTLE LONGER THAN WE ANTICIPATED

TO GET READY FOR THE EVENING.

NOT EVERYTHING IS SHADE AGAINST YOU, TAMAR.

IF WE'RE TO GET TO A BETTER PLACE

IN OUR SISTERHOOD, WE CAN'T KEEP ASSUMING

THE WORST OF EACH OTHER.

BOOM, HUH?

MMM-HMM.

WHAT IS THAT?

WHY Y'ALL GOTTA LOOK AT IT LIKE THAT?

CRABS.

- WHO MADE THAT? - I MADE THAT.

TASTE.

THIS IS ACTUALLY GOOD.

- ARE WE SURPRISED? - I AM.

OH, MY GOD!

- HEY! - HEY!

all: HEY!

I WAS LATE TO TAMAR'S HOUSE FOR DADDY'S DINNER

BECAUSE SOMEONE TOLD ME THE DINNER WAS AT 9:00.

SO NOW, I'M LOOKING SHADY, LIKE I'M LATE.

SORRY, DAD.

HOW YOU DOIN'?

- HI, MAMA. - HEY.

HEY, DENIM, COME GET YOUR BABY.

HEY, DAD-- HOW YOU FEEL?

TAKE LOGAN WIT' Y'ALL.

DADDY, YOU SIT HERE-- I'LL SIT THERE.

I'M REALLY GLAD THAT THEY FINALLY SHOWED UP

FOR MY DAD, BUT I THINK IT'S SOME BULL .

WE'LL SIT AROUND AND ACT LIKE THERE AIN'T NOTHING WRONG.

AIN'T NOBODY SAY NOTHIN'

WHEN THERE'S A WHOLE BUNCH OF TENSION.

ISN'T THIS HOW WE USUALLY DO IT?

I THOUGHT Y'ALL SAID DINNER WAS AT 9:00.

WHAT DO THEY THINK?

THEY THINK WHAT?

WHAT DO THEY THINK YOU HAVE?

THEY THINK I PROBABLY DID HAVE A SEIZURE,

BUT THEY SAID PEOPLE HAVE A SEIZURE.

A, LIKE YOU'LL NEVER HAVE IT AGAIN?

OR-- I THINK YOU SHOULD GET SOME OTHER DOCTORS

AND GET THEM TO LOOK OVER IT, AS WELL.

I'M GLAD EVERYBODY GOT TOGETHER IN THIS CRUCIAL TIME.

OF COURSE, THAT'S- THAT'S WHAT FAMILIES DO.

I'D LIKE TO SAY THAT THIS MAKES ALL OF OUR ISSUES IRRELEVANT,

BUT THERE IS STILL A LOT OF TENSION BETWEEN US,

AND I FEEL LIKE WE'RE ALWAYS SWEEPING THINGS

UNDER THE RUG, AND NOTHING EVER GETS RESOLVED.

GO GET SOME SLEEP, DAD.

I'M GLAD YOU'RE FEELING BETTER, THOUGH.

YES, I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE FEELING BETTER.

- WELL, I LOVE YOU, DAD. - LOVE YOU, DADDY.

KISSES, DADDY-O.

ONLY TIME WILL TELL IF WE CAN HEAL OUR SISTERHOOD THIS TIME.

I JUST HOPE WE CAN.

HEY, GIRLS.

- HEY, GUYS. - HI.

IS MOMMY ON HER WAY?

SHE WENT TO THE BATHROOM, HONEY.

YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU'RE 60, YOU CAN'T HOLD IT

LIKE YOU CAN WHEN YOU'RE 30.

I DON'T THINK MOMMY HAS THOSE ISSUES, THOUGH.

- LIES. - SHE DOESN'T.

THERE SHE IS-- SEE?

- HEY! - COME ON IN.

I HAVE TO TELL YA WHAT YOUR BABY DAUGHTER

HAS SAID ABOUT YOU. - WHAT?

TAMAR SAID, "WHEN YOU GOTTA GO,

"YOU GOTTA GO WHEN YOU'RE 60."

THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID. - I KNOW THAT'S RIGHT.

SEE?

THANK GOD MY DAD IS BETTER

AND ON HIS WAY BACK TO BALTIMORE.

AND BEFORE EVERYONE ELSE HEADS HOME,

TONI WANTS TO GET THE GIRLS TOGETHER FOR A LITTLE WINE.

I WOULD LIKE SOME CLEAR, UM, WATER.

- RIGHT, TRACI. - CLEAR WATER.

OH, YOU'RE JUST HAVING WATER?

WHY ARE YOU GUYS DRINKING WATER?

I WANNA CELEBRATE-- I GOTTA DO A TOAST.

I HAVE SOMETHING I WANNA SAY.

YOU'RE PREGNANT.

I JUST HAD TO ASK.

TRACI SEEMS TO THINK THAT YOU HAVE A-A BOYFRIEND.

YES, DO YOU?

I'M-I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU A HINT.

YOU'VE BEEN KNOCKING THE BOOTS.

OKAY.

- SHE AIN'T GOT NO MAN. - ELTON JOHN.

THEN SHE REALLY AIN'T GOT NO MAN.

ROCKET M-- ARE WE GOING IN SPACE?

ROCKET MAN?

ELTON JOHN AND-- OKAY, LET'S SEE.

OH, A RELATIVE OF HALLE BERRY.

WHAT'S THE NAME OF THIS GAME?

I'M GIVING YOU HINTS-- MUHAMMAD ALI.

FIGHTING.

JESUS.

COMING UP, ON "BRAXTON FAMILY VALUES"...

DON'T-- LOOK, DON'T SPOIL THE FUN.

I'M KEEPING IT 100.

JUST SAY, "WE'RE GOING."

I AM NOT HAPPY WITH WHAT HAS TRANSPIRED

OVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS WITH US.

WHY YOU GOTTA RUIN EVERYTHING?

JUST SAY, "OKAY."

WHAT'S

WHAT'S THE

WHAT'S THE NAME

WHAT'S THE NAME OF

WHAT'S THE NAME OF THIS

WHAT'S THE NAME OF THIS GAME?

I'M GIVING YOU HINTS-- MUHAMMAD ALI.?

FIGHTING.

JESUS.

CHILD, I DON'T KNOW WHAT HINT TONI'S GIVING, HONEY.

I MEAN, SHE'S TALKING ABOUT HALLE BERRY,

AND MUHAMMAD ALI, THE CAT IN THE HAT.

AND NO SHADE-- I-I DON'T KNOW.

I'M LOST.

UH, CAN I SING A SONG?

JUST A LITTLE BIT.

♪ OOH NA NA NA AH OOH ♪

- RIGHT. - AFRICA.

- AFRICA. - I'M GOING TO AFRICA!

WHAT YOU GOING TO AFRICA FOR?

I HAVE A SHOW.

I'M GOING ON TOUR ALL OVER THE PLACE.

I HAVE A HUGE FAN BASE IN AFRICA,

AND IT'S GOING TO BE GREAT TO BE CONNECTED WITH THEM,

THE CULTURE, THE FOOD.

AND IT'S NOT JUST ME ON TOUR--

IT'S ME AND BABYFACE.

WE'RE PROMOTING "LOVE, MARRIAGE, AND DIVORCE."

WAIT-- WAIT A MINUTE.

I GOTTA CHECK YOU ON SOMETHING.

WHAT?

HALLE BERRY?

MUHAM-- - NO--

MUHAMMAD ALI WENT TO SOUTH AFRICA,

SO THAT MAKES SENSE.

- YES. - OH, OKAY.

WELL, YES, GIRL!

YOU'RE GOING, AND YOU'RE GOING,

AND YOU'RE GOING, AND YOU'RE GOING, AND YOU'RE GOING.

- REALLY? - I'M GOING, TOO?

WE'RE GOING TO SOUTH AFRICA!

MY RELATIONSHIP WITH MY SISTERS NOW

IS BEING STRESSED AND TESTED,

AND I'M HOPING THAT A TRIP TO AFRICA

WILL HELP US.

WE NEED TO FEEL LIKE A FAMILY, AGAIN.

I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO GO TO AFRICA.

WE'RE GOING TO GO TO SAFARIS.

YAY!

- THAT'S GONNA BE FUN. - YES, WE'RE GONNA DO FUN STUFF.

WE'RE NOT JUST GONNA GO ON THE STAGE.

ARE THE CHILDREN GOING?

NO, NO BABIES-- NO BABIES.

- I CAN'T WAIT. - NO KIDS ALLOWED.

I MEAN, YOU KNOW, I'M REALLY EXCITED ABOUT

GOING TO SOUTH AFRICA UNTIL-- ERRR, STOP THE TAPE.

OH, BUT LOGAN CAN'T GO.

GET YOUR LIFE.

TAMAR, DON'T POUT LIKE THAT.

I DON'T WANNA RAIN ON NOBODY'S PARADE,

BUT I GOT TO PRAY ON THAT.

DON'T-- DON'T-- LOOK, DON'T SPOIL THE FUN.

- I'M KEEPING IT 100. - JUST SAY, "WE'RE GOING."

JUST SAY, "WE'RE GOING."

WELL, I-I HAVE A BABY.

WE ALL HAVE BABIES, CHILDREN.

- I KNOW, BUT, I-- - YES.

WHY YOU GOTTA RUIN EVERYTHING?

JUST SAY, "OKAY."

HOW-- WELL, HOW AM I RUINING ANYTHING

BECAUSE I GOT FEELINGS ABOUT SOMETHING?

I FEEL LIKE, EVERY TIME I SAY SOMETHIN',

IT ALWAYS BECOMES, LIKE, SOMETHING ELSE.

NO, IT'S-- BUT-BUT, WHY CAN'T SOMETHING LIKE

THIS BE A CONVERSATION?

I MEAN, LIKE, FOR REAL, OF COURSE, I WANNA GO

TO SOUTH AFRICA AND ESPECIALLY

WITH MY SISTERS.

BUT, LIKE, FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS,

IT'S LIKE EVERY TIME I TRY TO SAY SOMETHIN',

THINGS TURN OUT TO, YOU KNOW, BE NEGATIVE.

I REALLY DON'T WANNA DO THINGS LIKE THIS ANYMORE.

TAMAR, YOU ARE THE FUN POLICE.

YOU ARE THE FUN PO-PO. - NO-- NO, I'M NOT.

- YOU ARE THE FUN COPPER. - NO-- NO-NO-NO.

LISTEN, I'M ALL FOR BONDING, FOR REAL.

I'M ALL FOR--

I'M ALL FOR HAVING A GOOD TIME WITH MY SISTERS.

BUT, I AM NOT HAPPY WITH WHAT HAS TRANSPIRED

OVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS WITH US.

I'M NOT GONNA LET HER FINISH!

LET ME TELL YOU WHY-- BECAUSE THIS IS GOOD.

THIS IS WHAT WE NEED.

IT'S GONNA BE FUN-- IT'S GONNA BE GREAT!

YOU KNOW, I'M TRYING TO EXPLAIN TO MY SISTERS

THAT I AM NOT HAPPY.

I JUST DON'T GET WHY THEY DON'T GET IT BECAUSE,

I MEAN, HAVE WE NOT BEEN ARGUING EVERY SINGLE DAY

AND EVERY TIME WE GET TOGETHER?

TAMAR SEEMS, LIKE, SLIGHTLY UPSET RIGHT NOW.

BECAUSE I'M FRUSTRATED,

'CAUSE WE CAN NEVER GET ANYWHERE.

YOU KNOW, I-I JUST FEEL LIKE EVERY TIME

I TRY TO SAY SOMETHIN' THAT I REALLY MEAN

AND SOMETHIN' THAT I FEEL LIKE NEEDS TO BE SAID,

IT'S JUST, LIKE, TAKEN-- ALWAYS TAKEN THE WRONG WAY.

AND THEN, IT'S GONNA BE LIKE I'M TRIPPIN' AGAIN,

AND THAT'S ALL I WAS REALLY TRYING TO SAY,

BUT I COULDN'T GET IT OUT, BUT, YOU KNOW.

RIGHT NOW, THE STATUS OF OUR RELATIONSHIP

IS NOT THE BEST.

WE'RE IN A PLACE WHERE WE'VE NEVER BEEN BEFORE,

AND WE JUST CAN'T SEEM TO COME TOGETHER.

I'M STARTING TO FEEL LIKE TAMAR'S MAKING A CONSCIOUS CHOICE

TO SEPARATE HERSELF FROM THE REST OF OUR FAMILY.

NOW, SEE, Y'ALL NEED TO GET AWAY, REALLY,

SO Y'ALL-- YOU GUYS CAN SIT DOWN AND TALK.

THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE GONNA DO WITH THE SINGLE,

AND WHEN YOU'RE GONNA DO IT,

AND BLAH-BLAH-BLAH- BLAH-BLAH.

SPEAKING OF SINGLE, I THINK WE SHOULD WAIT

A LITTLE BIT LONGER TO DO IT

BECAUSE WE CAN'T SEEM TO COME TOGETHER.

WE CANT EVEN PLAN A TRIP TO AFRICA.

THE SISTERS SINGLE IS BEING PUT ON ICE.

I THINK IT'S GONNA HAPPEN, BUT I DON'T THINK

IT'S GONNA HAPPEN RIGHT NOW BECAUSE EVERYBODY IS BUSY.

TONI'S ABOUT TO GO ON HER INTERNATIONAL TOUR,

AND TAMAR HAS A TALK SHOW.

HOWEVER, COMMA, I'M NOT SURE IF TAMAR REALLY WANTS

TO DO THE SINGLE WITH US.

SO, WE-WE MAY DECIDE TO MOVE FORWARD WITHOUT TAMAR.

BUT THEN, IT TURNS TO TAMAR'S TRIPPING AGAIN,

I GUESS, SO-- - YOU KNOW WHAT?

NO-NO-NO, WE'RE NOT GONNA GO THERE.

Y'ALL HAVE ARGUED FOR MONTHS.

YOU HAVE TO GET IT TOGETHER.

IT'S ENOUGH, OKAY?

YOU CAN'T EVEN TALK ABOUT TRIPS.

IT'S SOMETHING ELSE THAT COMES OUT OF THAT.

WE CAN'T DO THAT ANY LONGER,

'CAUSE IF YOU KEEP GETTING IN YOUR FEELINGS,

YOU'RE NOT GONNA HAVE A SISTERHOOD.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA HAVE IT.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE SISTERS RIGHT NOW

IS IN TROUBLE.

FIVE STRONG WOMEN TOGETHER

WITH THEIR STRONG OPINIONS, YOU KNOW?

UH-UH, IT'S NOT REALLY WORKING.

I AIN'T WALKIN' OUT.

I GOTTA GO TO WORK.

I HAVE TO GO TO THE STUDIO,

AND LASHAWN HAS BEEN WAITIN' ON ME

FOR ABOUT A HOUR AND A HALF.

I LOVE MY SISTERS.

I WISH 'EM THE BEST.

I WANT A REAL RELATIONSHIP WITH MY SISTERS

LIKE I HAD BEFORE, AND I'M NOT SAYING

THAT I AM 100% NOT AT FAULT,

I'M JUST SAYING I DON'T KNOW WHAT COULD MAKE IT BETTER,

AT THIS POINT.
