Previously on
"Braxton Family Values"...

After last season,

we sisters are divided
like never before.

Later today I will be
pressing charges.

Ooh, so mad!

Nobody-- cared
about me!

I'm done.
I'm tapped out.

I don't think that
we should work together.

This season,
a family crisis
unites us again.

I wanted to find out
how things have been
going for you.

The pain today
is just terrible.

-What happened?
-I think her
sugar dropped.

My mom being put
to sleep for some surgery,
honey, that dangerous?

We don't know
what's happening!

And I need my sisters, too,
because I'm facing

the biggest challenge
of my life.

Gabe is my
soon-to-be ex-husband.

Heard that before.
I know that song.

The thing is, I think
he's really starting to
turn crazy or something.

Don't go back!

Gabe scares the hell
out of me.

- It's a lot.
- It is a lot!

I'm the one dealing
with it!

But the truth is,
we're still divided.

She doesn't
answer my calls.

No one's talked
to Tamar?

You don't run
my life.

I'm not doing
this anymore.

We need to get it together
and we need to feel like
a family again.

I don't understand.
Am I supposed to fight?

Am I supposed
to not fight?

What am I supposed
to be doing?

♪ We are the Braxtons
and you'll see ♪

♪ We are not like
an ordinary family ♪

♪ Toni, Traci,
Towanda, Trina ♪

♪ Tamar and Miss E will ♪

♪ Teach you a thing or two ♪

♪ The "Braxton
Family Values." ♪

No call is off limits.

From all around the country,
what you got?

Traci's here.
She's here with us every week
now on the Heat.

- Yes!
- And it's time for...

Traci's Takeover!

'Cause that's what
I do, baby.

I'm really excited
because today is the first day

of my new weekly,
national radio show.

Yes, honey.

♪ Traci's going national ♪

♪ Traci's going
national ♪

♪ She has a hit what
big-time, oh, y'all. ♪

Okay.

- Woman on phone: Hi, Traci!
- Hi.

- How are you?
- I'm peachy.

- I have a question.
- Uh-huh, answer.

What's going on
with you and your sisters?

Uh, well, me and my sisters,
we're still sisters

and we share the same DNA.

Why y'all keep calling me up
and asking me

about the drama between
me and my sisters?

Really? Like y'all ain't
never had no drama done before

in your family
or your household?
Really?

Oh, it's, you know,
it's still sisterhood.

You know? You have
your moments, you st--

you love each other--
I mean, we really, really,
really love each other.

But when you get with them,
y'all just fight!

-It's beef.
- You make up for lost time
by fighting.

- Yes, we do, honey.
- Woman on phone: Well,
thank you so much.

- No, thank you.
- Thank you, Jackie.
Appreciate you.

-Thank you.
-Bye.

- Bye.
- So, at the end of the day,

what's really going on
with you and your sisters?

Dion is trying it.

It seems like every time,
you know, y'all talk about

doing some music together,
it's like, "Ehh..."

It doesn't work out.

I feel the same way.
It's like an orgasm
that never happen.

The family album brought up
too many past issues.

I mean, come on, guys,
let's just drop it.

Stop trying to make
fetch happen, okay?

It's not gonna happen!
There's no album!

It's good for you,
though, Traci,

because that way the spotlight
is on you guys individually.

You know, with your music,
her music, her music.

It's like we can see you guys
as individuals now

and not as--
and not as "The Braxtons."
You know what I'm saying?

I couldn't agree more.
I am more than happy
to be focusing

on my own career
right now

with my new national
radio show

and my own solo album.

Yes, honey,
this child is booked.

Traci, I told you to keep it
real on this show, right?

- I told you to keep it real.
- I'm keeping it real.

- So why don't you
tell all of SiriusXM...
- I'm gonna keep it real.

...about y'all fake-ass noses.
Come on now!

The only fake I can
tell you about

is a couple of caps
in my God daggone
mouth, okay?

Oh, that's right.
Oh, that's right.

- That's all I can tell you!
-Now I know.

- The caps, not real.
- They're not real.

- The nose is real?
- I got some back here.
They ain't real.

- The hair?
- Oh, the hair is not real.

It's dyed.
It's real hair.

- I could put heat to it.
-You bought it.

- It's yours. It's hers.
- Yes! It is mine!

It is mine for a good
three weeks.

- Let's wrap this thing up.
-Yes!

More to come
inside the...

Traci takeover!

Yeah!

Hey, little girl.

Well, you look like
you feel horrible.

I do.

What's going on?

Same old, same old.

- Same old pain.
- Still?

I'm sorry,
I know you can't wait
till you have your surgery.

Oh, my God.
Thank God for Jesus.

So Mommy's staying
with me and Vance

while she waits
to have her surgery to fix

her herniated disk
in her neck.

The surgery
isn't scheduled yet,

but it will be sometime
in the next few weeks.

I'm trying to be brave
for her, but really,
I'm scared.

So, how are things going
with you and your sisters?

Why you asking?

Because I need to know.

Mama, I don't want
to stress you out.

Well, you see,
by me not knowing,
that stresses me out...

- Does it?
- ...because I think y'all
need to let some things go.

Let stuff go.

So after my sisters
surprised me onstage
in Atlanta...

The girls and I
have planned a wonderful
surprise for Tamar.

And I'm like,

"What the hell is that?
What we doing here?"

- She was mad.
- Was she mad, though?

Yes.

And then they
mistakenly thought
I threw them out.

Tamar's tour manager
looked me straight in
the face and said,

"I'm sorry, but I have to
ask you to leave."

She wasn't talking
about y'all.

No, he told me
personally.

But I talked to
my tour manager D. Leeks

and he feels
uber-bad about, you know,
telling my family to leave

just because I wanted
all the camera crew to leave.

So, D. Leeks apologized
to Trina when he saw her

at my recent concert
in Atlanta.

So, I don't really know
what her issue is after
all of that.

You just can't ignore
things and think things
will go away.

'Cause it doesn't work
that way.

- Mama.
- How about that?

I'm here for that,
but I don't want to

make the situation
more stressful.

How would that make
the situation--

'Cause, you know,
my mouth--

the Lord is still
working with me

and, so, you know,
when somebody say something,

most of the time
when it's not true,

or when I feel like
I have to defend myself,

pop, pop, poppity,
pop, pop, pop.

I get like you
with the popcorn.

You can't solve anything
if you don't work on it.

Then you're having
a conversation with
the wrong person.

Ma, I've left
the situation alone.
I don't even...

- talked to nobody.
- Well, then, maybe
you've left it alone,

but maybe there's others
with other ideas.

They have.
They don't talk to me.

They will.

We're gonna sit down
and we're gonna talk.

'Cause y'all gotta
throw all of that drama away.

Nobody wants us to be
as close again more than I do,

but I'm worried about
bringing up old issues

'cause I know
it's gonna turn into drama.

But my biggest priority
right now is my mama's health,

so I want to keep
things positive for her.

God done healed you today

to make me and Logan
some biscuits.

- So, come on.
Won't he do it?
- God have healed me,

- but I'm not gonna
make any biscuits.
- You are making biscuits!

- I want some biscuits, Mama.
-You're not gonna eat
the biscuits.

You want me to open
the door for you?

Isn't this "loverly"?

I am opening up
a wine and tapas bar

and Towanda and I
are buying appliances

for my Bar Chicks
restaurant.

And I've invested
a lot of my savings into this

and Gabe hasn't
contributed anything,

but it's okay
'cause this is my baby.

I'm gonna look at
some deep fryers for me.

- All right. Very good.
- Wait, one second, Towanda.

I see that this one
has a bottle opener on it.

- I can get that for you
on that as well. Yeah.
- On this?

You know I'm glad
that I get a chance
to hang out with Trina

while we're shopping.

Because, you know,
lately she's been, like,
really consumed

with working on
her new restaurant.

Trina, let's look
at these deep fryers.

Tamar gave me
a Go Daddy one.
A Deep Fryer Daddy?

- Big Daddy?
- I have some-- yeah--
something like this.

Everybody needs
a deep fryer.

You know,
speaking of Tamar,
I went to her show.

I know.

Recently Tamar had another
concert in Atlanta

and I was just
a little bit hesitant,

but I decided to go.

You know, that guy--
what's his name?

D-- Dman?

- The one who kicked us out?
- Yes. Yes.

- Right.
- He apologized.

He did?
What he say?

He was like,
"I'm sorry for...

the last show.
You know, and putting
you guys out.

I apologize from
the bottom of my heart.

If there's anything
I can do."

I said, "I might
get onstage tonight.
You can kick me out again."

I was just joking.
I had to break the ice.

- It was kind of awkward.
- But he was only doing
what he was told to do.

And I get it,
but I still--

I'm glad he apologized.
I would rather get
an apology

- from, you know, Tamar.
- Tamar's never gonna
apologize.

But, you know...

Since the concert,
you know, I've spoken
with Tamar.

Of course, we're sisters,
and regardless of
what's going on

we love each other,
but I just know that

Tamar's just gonna always
refuse to acknowledge

or own her part
of the situation.

When you address it,
it gets brushed off.

So what's the point
of even saying anything
to her?

She's not going to change.
So I just accepted her

for who she is.
That's all.

Yeah.

I'm never ever

going to waste my time,

breath, or energy

trying to resolve
any of our past conflicts.

You know,
whether it's Tamar
or the rest of my sisters.

I'm not doing that anymore

because it's not
gonna change anything.

Pleasure to meet
you sister today.

- Isn't she super cute?
- Yes.

I feel like
right now there's a Band-Aid
on our sisterhood.

Especially because
no one ever wants to address
the problem.

But you know what?
Eventually that Band-Aid's
gonna fall off

and all hell's
gonna break loose.

Coming up on
"Braxton Family Values"...

I'm glad that you
entrusted me

in telling me
and confessing.

- Just promise you're
not gonna say anything.
- I promise.

She tried it.

I'm not being shade,
it comes from love.

Does anyone else have
something loving to say?

So you've been eating
all the daggone bacon?

-I did.
- Oh! Look.

Look what happened.

Really?

- Don't play with me.
- You won't eat it.

I'm not eating it,
you're eating it.

I'm excited to make brunch
today for my husband

and my baby boy Kevin Jr.

I never really get to spend
much quality time

with my son these days.

He doesn't have time
for his mama anymore.

Look, I'm an old-fashioned
kind of person.

- Making pancakes.
- Those are perfect cakes.

- Kevin!
- Where's our son?

I thought I heard him
coming upstairs.

- Uh... where you going?
- Oh.

K.

-Go out to eat?!
- Kevin Jr.: Yeah.

Oh, hell, no!
I'm making these
damn pancakes.

- I don't think so!
- Well, why you cooking
so late?

It's called brunch.

I already made plans
to go out to eat
with Olivia.

But y'all see
each other every day.

Don't you think
y'all two need a break?

Why I need a break for?

Are you done?

- All right, bye, son.
- Kevin Jr.: I see y'all later?

- Goodbye. Have a good day.
- Okay.

Kevin and Olivia
have been dating for
three years.

And I think
it's three years too long

because I do believe
they need to adventure
out in the world.

You just don't marry
the first booty that
comes at the door.

I'm really scared
of keep pushing him

away from her
because that means

he gonna wanna
be with her...

- even more.
- Yeah.

I just had him yesterday!

Nine hours
I pushed him out!

Now he got a girlfriend.

That he's possibly
pushing in.

Eww.

And we all know
what comes next.

Trina had her child--
Mommy and Daddy got married

when they was younger.
You know--

- How old were they?
- 17 and 18.

- Mommy and Daddy
was freaky like that?
- Yes!

- I can't imagine them
getting it then.
- Mommy was what?

Um, 18 when she had Toni.

Following year
after they got married.

Kevin Jr.
already postponed college,

but I'm really hoping
he start in the fall.

His focus should be
on getting ready for college

instead of his
little nasty girlfriend.

Okay, I lost
my appetite.

- Where you going?
- In the store.

-Hi, how are you?
-Hello.

Your daughter
is beautiful, by the way.

Yes, yes.

I'm taking Trina
dress shopping with me

because I'm actually going
out on a date with Andre.
Yup, I am.

So I decided that
I wanted to go get me

some "Do me, baby"
booty dresses.

Y'all know I love
those dresses, okay?

- I have to get
something cute to wear.
- To wear for where?

- I'm going on a date, girl.
- You and Andre going on
a date, Towanda?

Why don't you and Gabe
come with us?

- You know what?
I need some jewelry, too.
- Jewelry, too.

- That's cute.
- Because this necklace
is cute.

Trina, why don't you
to go with me?

- You and Gabe.
- Towanda, on a date?

Yes, the four of us can go.
That'll be nice.

I don't wanna go
on a double date.

- Why?!
- Because I don't have
a date, Towanda. Come on.

Gabe is your date.

We haven't slept
in the same room in...

What's the face for?
The "I'm trying to look
sympathetic" face?

No, no, because I was--
No.

This is my
sympathetic face, Trina.

Really, Towanda?

Okay, I'm sorry.
I knew it.

Why you say it like that?

You know I'm at your house
all the time, Trina.

And when I was there
and I went upstairs

and I was in your room,
his stuff wasn't in
the closet anymore.

- What, you looking for clues?
- No. I was looking for
something to wear.

I was waiting for you
to tell me

'cause I didn't want to,
you know, pry

and do what your
other sisters--
what they do. So...

- Did you tell the other
girls what you thought?
- Absolutely not.

- You didn't tell Toni?
- Nope, was none of my
business to tell.

- Nope.
- We've been
broken up for months.

Gabe is my
soon-to-be ex-husband.

I'm not trying to show
my happiness...

...that, you know,
I'm tap dancing
in the inside

because I'm excited
that Trina is...

actually gonna do this
with Gabe.

However, comma,

guys, how many times

have you heard
Trina say

that she was gonna
get a divorce from Gabe?

I'm filing for divorce,
can you please pass the salt?

- What?!
- Ah!

Tamar, you doing too much.
Tamar, you doing too much.

- I got to give him praise.
- Tamar...

I'm in love with my husband.

- Go and get your life.
- You get yours.

And now I will

pronounce you
husband and wife.

You may kiss
your bride.

See?
There's been so many times.

So no one
really believes her.

Every season is a divorce
or getting back together.

You know,
we never know.

Trina filed the papers.

Yay.

Come on, now. Come on, now.

- Hi, Gabe.
- Gabe!

Hey, Gabriel.

- Ew. I'm still shocked.
- Why?

Because I didn't know
they got back together.

Trina and Gabe is like
Herpes simplex one,

it never goes away.
You know, it just pops up.

Then it goes away
and then it pops up.

Then it goes away,
but it's always in
your bloodstream.

So I'm not trying
to get too excited

because you just
never know with Trina.

Well, I'm here for you, Trina,
whatever you need.

I need to not have an opinion.
I need for you to not tell
the other girls.

- I won't.
- I'll tell them
in my own time.

I'm not ready for
the "I told you sos."

And, "I never really
liked him."

And the shouting
and the-- I can't.

Okay, I'm glad
that you entrusted me

in telling me
and confessing.

Have you been crying, too?

No, Towanda,

I was doing cartwheels
throughout the house.

I know I have
to tell my sisters

about my divorce,
eventually,

but I just don't feel like
all the commentary

that comes along with it.

"Oh, Trina, we never
liked Gabe in the first place."

"Oh, Trina, I'm gonna
shout, shout, shout, shout."

I don't feel like that
right now.

Okay, well...
Let's go--

- Just promise you not
gonna say anything.
- I promise!

Right hand
to the Man.

- Hello.
-Hello, good evening.

- It's just two of us.
- Okay, perfect.

- I have a table ready for you.
- Okay, thank you.

Toni really needs to get
her ass out the house.

So, I'm gonna take her
on a little sister date.

I'm super, uber always
happy to spend some time
with my big sister, Toni.

Can I get you ladies
started with some flat
or sparkling water?

- I'm gonna have vodka
with my sparkling water.
- Okay.

I think I'm gonna start
with the stuffed mushroom.

- That's gonna be it for me.
-Yeah, of course.

Would I like
anything, Tamar?

- I don't eat mushrooms.
- I'm so cold.

- You wanna wear my jacket?
- It's beyond cold.

It's cute with
your little outfit.

And she's vintage
Valintino.

- I need a jacket.
- Won't he do it?

- It's too big.
- Well, you ain't
got it all the way on.

- This gonna help me
get a man, too, huh?
- Maybe.

Okay, thank you.

I'm not ready for Mommy
to have surgery.

She has to have
the surgery.

She can't postpone it
any longer.

I can't handle it.

I am so scared.
No one wants to

sit back and watch
their parents have surgery

and they can't
do nothing about it.

It's tough.

It's dangerous.
You know they have to go
through her carotid.

And her jugu--
juggler?

They have to
go through her neck
to get to five and six.

You know,
"Get him in the jugular."

- That's Mommy's word.
Everybody knows that.
- No, that's the neck.

"They grabbed you
by your jugular."

- Neck.
- "Got you by your jugular."

I don't think that she--
she was saying balls.

I don't think
Mommy thought that.

I thought she meant...
You know Mommy don't
say words...

- I think you
thought that, Tamar.
- ...but say words.

- Jugular is definitely
not the balls.
- The jugular.

I don't know what dictionary
she's reading

because the jugular
never meant balls.

I mean, maybe they juggle.
Maybe they can be a jug--

I don't know what
she's talking about.

- Jugular is balls!
- It is not!

- I'm gonna ask her.
- Don't ask her.

- Don't ask some stranger.
- Excuse me.

- Hi, can I ask
you a question?
- Yeah, of course.

Um, have you ever heard
of the term jugular?

- No.
- "They grabbed you
by your jugular."

-Oh, yeah.
- Where is that?

- Your throat.
- Is it?!

Yeah.

Okay. "They got
you by your jugular."
Got you by your neck.

- I think so. I think so.
- Thank you. Thank you.

You're welcome.

- How are the mushrooms?
- It's delicious.

- Fantastic.
- If they cut your jugular, you
can bleed to death and die.

- She don't know.
- She does know!

She just told you--
said what I said!

She don't know--
she ain't know.

The point I'm saying is,
it's a dangerous surgery,

but this doctor,
a specialist--

I don't really
believe you.

I'm gonna call
somebody like Towanda
'cause Towanda--

somebody who know us
and who's, you know,

- brown-skinned like us.
- Watch.

Oh, my throat hurts
a little bit.

- Hello?
- Towanda, it's me and Toni.

- We got a quick
question for you.
- Hey, Tones.

Towanda, jugular is where?
"They grab you-- they got
you by the jugular."

Where is that?
What Mommy talking about?

No, she wasn't
talking about the throat.

- She talking about balls.
- ♪ Wa, wa, wa, wa. ♪

- Told ya.
- Fine.

- Well, anyway.
- How's Mommy--
wait a minute. Hold up.

She needs the surgery.
She has to have the surgery.

- She can't put
it off anymore.
- Yup.

Tell Trina about Mommy.

Holy...

Coming up on
"Braxton Family Values"...

We know that he's gonna make
some outlandish allegations.

- He always does.
- And I'm gonna tell you
what's gonna be the fight.

Towanda and Antavius:
What?!

Is there something else
that you don't wanna tell us?

Why don't you wanna talk?
It's safe here.

Safe table.

I don't wanna talk
about the safe table.

Here we go again.
All the "I told you sos."

Towanda on phone:
Holy...

We what?

Listen to what I'm saying.
Hear me out.

I'm not telling
y'all anything.

You should ask her...

You know,
general conversation.

"Hey, Trina, what's going on
with you and Gabe?"

- I'll ask.
- That's all I can say.

- You should ask her.
- I bet you she'll leave out
some details.

- Just ask her.
- Just close your eyes

and picture Toni,
Tamar, and Traci

finding out about Trina's
divorce on the tabloids.

You picturing that?
Exactly! You know?

It's gonna be a sister
chain call.

They're gonna ask her
why she didn't tell them.

It's gonna be a mess.
So, that's why, you know,

I told them to ask
Trina about, you know,
her situation.

When y'all
coming out here?

- You can't come
out before that?
- I mean, I guess we can all

come to LA
for a sister's weekend
before Mommy's surgery.

Now, we haven't had
a sister weekend

in a really long time

and I know my mother
really wants us to address

our sister issues,
but I don't think that

right now is the time
because we're all stressed out

about Mommy's surgery
and now...

we hear there's something
that's going on with Trina

and I feel that there's
bigger fish to fry.

- All right. We'll call
you later, bye.
- Okay.

What she talking about?

Girl, talking about him
give me scabies and stuff.

I can't.
Can't talk.

- Well, I thank you, date,
for a wonderful time.
- Thank you.

- Are we gonna kiss?
- Mm-mmm.

Not if you have
a sore throat. Lies.

- I got a one-year-old.
- All right, well, you're
not a good date

- 'cause this was a cheap meal.
- I'm a really good date.

I mean you bought me
for the price of a cocktail.

You a liar.
You ate, you full.

- I'm not really full.
- You wore me some
tight pants.

I didn't wear tight pants.
I didn't wear tight pants.
Get off of my booty!

Push it.
Push it real good.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- How are you?
- What's up?

- Good to see you.
- Good to see you.

Hey, babe,
what's going on?

I'm really going through
with the divorce this time.

And I am not
changing my mind.

Now, let's get this
divorce process over with.

- We've gone through this
a couple of times.
- Ah, thanks.

More than a couple.
A couple's only two.

- A couple's only two.
- You're here for moral support.

That is moral support
to let you know that
you're ready.

- I know you ready now.
- But she is right, Trina.

I mean, you file this
thing and dismissed it.

I want to be completely,
utterly, unfathomably
divorced.

But then you understand,
Trina, we've been--

There's no going back.

Okay. All right.

You know, this is not
only the end of an era,

it's the end of an error.

I said that.

I actually sat him down
and I was like,

"Gabe, I can't
do this anymore."

And-- and I was like,
"I would love for us
to be amicable."

And he was like,

"No, I'm not gonna do that.
I'm not gonna be amicable."

I'm like why--
why do you have to be mad?
Why do you have to do that?

He was like, "You know,
whoever you end up with

they're gonna end up
cheating on you, too."

He was like,
"You ain't no prize."

Towanda and Antavius:
What?!

We know that
he's gonna make some
outlandish allegations.

- He always does.
-Mm-hmm.

He was like, "I created you.
I created your brand."

- Like, "Whoa, wait, now."
- And yet they know him as

- the Internet guy, right?
- He is the Internet guy.

I mean, I didn't even
know him in 1989 when we
came out as The Braxtons.

I don't know how he
built my brand, but...

Did he teach you
the hand gesture thing?

Did he--
did he say that?!

If he taught you
this hand gesture

that means he was
wearing your pumps.

I am 100% serious
about the divorce

and there is no way
he's gonna win me back
this time.

This is going to get ugly.

Are you all still
living in the same house?

We are living
in the same house
and in different rooms.

- Clearly you're
not cohabitating...
- No.

- ...and sleeping together.
- No.

But I'm gonna tell you
what's gonna be the fight.

I want the house
especially because
Caleb is still in school.

Of course you do want
the house, 'cause that's
your house.

You're entitled to the house.
This is your boy's home.

And knowing Gabe
and the way that he
operated the last time,

he's probably gonna try
to come after Bar Chicks.

My biggest fear
in this divorce

is that Gabe is going to try
to stake a claim
on Bar Chicks.

In all the other attempts
when Gabe and I

were going through
our divorces--

you know, every time
he came after my finances,

came after my music,
he came after my businesses.

Gabe is just
being greedy.

Ass--.

I think, for him, it's like,
"Okay, well, she's-- she's
never gonna leave.

-Sure.
- No matter what I do,
she's never gonna leave."

And I think he's really
starting to get angry
because he can see.

Based on what you've
shared with me now,

I'm even more concerned
about how he's gonna
respond to you.

Whenever it comes around
this divorce issue,

um, and you leaving him,

he begins to unravel.

I think Gabe finally realizes

that I'm finally going
through with this divorce

and now he's gonna
lose me for good.

And I'm worried that he might
do something desperate.

Plus, there's even more
to the story

that I can't even bring
myself to tell right now.

This man is not stable

in my opinion.

I shudder to even think
about the possibilities.

I really do.

I got to get
my life together.

You know I have not worked
out at all this year?

- I've been working out
like twice a day.
- At all, not once!

That's why I got the flats
on because my ankle's
been bothering me.

I'm just glad
we're all together
for the weekend.

You know, just to hang out
and have fun

because the next time
we'll be together

it'll probably be
for Mommy's surgery.

And that's gonna be
stressful for everyone.

I had heard that
you moved.

- I wanna see your new house.
- I did. I moved.

Oh, she moved.

- Hey, big money.
- Hey, guys.

- Hey, big boots.
- Hey.

How was your flight?

- I don't want to
see your butt.
- Jesus.

Towanda's very
"Soul Plane" today.

- It is real "Soul Plane."
- Well, I do have soul.

Don't get me wrong,
I love seeing my sisters,

but I'm a little worried
about this weekend.

We definitely have issues
we should discuss,

but I'm not ready
to deal with that now.

I don't even know if this
is the time

to tell them
about the divorce.

Are you excited
about moving Tray?

Oh, my God, yes,
I am so excited.

Well, talk about the house.
Talk about it!

Um, it's about 10 minutes
away from where I used to live.

And I need to move out
of that neighborhood

because people was knocking
at my door and was like,

"Uh, oh, my God,
it is you!"

Or they'll stay out in front
of the house before I--

you know, when I leave out
the house and take pictures.

- So, I had to move.
- Are you serious?

- Little Kevin, he happy?
- I don't think Kevin
really knows

because he's always
with Olivia.

You know,
after he graduated I said,

"Kevin, you gonna
go to college?"

He said, "Well, no, Mom,
I'm just gonna take
a year off."

I told him to do that.

You told him to do that?!

- Like three years ago.
- That was your bright idea?

No, wait, wait, wait.

We were talking about plans.

He said he wanted
to be an entrepreneur, so...

I want him to go away
so he can know himself.

He gonna meet somebody.

No, he really
like this girl.

No, he really,
really like this girl.

- She's a sweetheart,
he really likes her.
- They spend every moment.

Kevin Jr. and his girlfriend
Olivia are too much.

Young love
is nice and all,

but I don't like it.

They obsessed
with each other.

I mean, isn't it good
to be a Braxton?

I mean, look at--
Trina got her hair
chopped up.

Trina, what you
going through,
what's wrong?

I'm just saying,
whenever Trina's going
through something,

- she cuts her hair.
- That's what I said!

What's happening?

It looks amazing.
That's not shade at all.

No, I didn't take it
as shade.

Okay, good segue, Tamar.

She didn't need to--
to be so obvious

with putting
Trina on the spot.

Subtlety is not
Tamar's specialty.

I just feel like Towanda
knows, but we don't know.

-I think she--
- Towanda, I can speak
for myself.

I know, I just know
you're not ready to
talk about it.

I just know you not
ready for that part.

I can speak
for myself,

but I don't
choose to speak for
myself right now.

That's all I'm saying.
That's what I said.

I can say it
about myself, though.

You're going through
something, yes?

We're getting a divorce.

Coming up on
"Braxton Family Values"...

It's more serious
than you guys think it is.

Gabe scares
the hell out of me.

Is it something
we're gonna find out?

It's gonna be on
the Internet again?

If they knew the whole
truth about Gabe,

they would go
absolutely ballistic.

I have some news
to tell y'all.

This is some bull--,
everybody!

Ooh, I'm gonna kill him.

We're getting a divorce.

- Again?
- Tamar...

Are y'all really?
Seriously?

Seriously.

Trina said she's getting
a divorce from Gabe.

Heard that before.
I know that song.

Uh... we'll see.

I hope so.
I shouldn't say that.

I'm not holding
my breath this time

and I am not going to
nobody's other wedding.

Renewal of anything.
Okay?

I'm still waiting
on the call for her to say,

"We back together."
You know?

You're going through
something, yes?

We're getting a divorce.

Again?

Tamar...

Are y'all really?
Seriously?

Seriously.

We've been, um...

living in a separated state
for a long time.

- I was in the master,
he was in the guest.
- How you didn't tell us?

-Well, because...
-Of me.

Because last time I told you,
you started shouting

- and that's inappropriate.
-Yes, you did.

Well, I was happy for you.

I want her to know
that I am super supportive

of her decision making
and I've always been happy

when she's filed for divorce.
No shade, girl.

But we've always recently
tried to support Trina

when she wanted
to work it out with him again.

How long y'all
been back together?

It's been a couple--
been about two months.

Shut up!
Hear, hear to working it
out when it's worth it.

- Yes!
- The only person to tell
y'all that is y'all.

- It's your life.
- Clink, clink, clink.

Ever since I figured out
he was a fool

from outerspace.org,
I got it.

You know what I mean?
So that's why I was shouting.

I wasn't trying to be funny.
I was just happy for you

'cause, you know,
you got your life.

You seen what everybody
else-- what, you know,
Towanda was seeing,

like 13 years ago,
but it's okay.

Here we go again.
All the "I told you sos."

Especially from Tamar.

Even though she
just a little bit right,

it's still
really humiliating.

Thank you.
It's hard to move on.

You wanna make
something work.

He's your family.
He's your husband.
I get it, but...

y'all know Trina
believes in magic.

She tried it.
She tried you.

Your tank should be
full, honey.

She filled your tank
all the way up!

- I believe in magic.
- Premium! Read her!
She tried it.

I don't know if you paying
attention, but I pay
attention, okay?

So, I told Trina
she need to read Toni
for pure filth

for that because
she don't be getting...

the reads.
Why? Why you don't
catch it, girl?

I caught it.
I always catch it.

- Trina believes in magic.
-She does.

Trina believes in love.
She's old-school.

There's nothing
wrong with that, Trina,
I'm kinda like that.

I can't sure if
I can hear you

past the palm trees
that you are giving me.

I'm not being shade.
I'm your older sister.

- I'm telling you this
comes from love.
- Palm tree.

Okay, does anyone else
have something loving
to say?

- Tamar.
- Thanks, Trina.

Well, um...

is there anything
in particular

that happened
that made you want to,

you know,
file for divorce?

- Was it another woman?
- I mean, there was some
other things going on.

- Just some other things.
- He did something else you
don't want to tell us.

Why don't you wanna tell us?
It's safe here.

Safe table.

I don't-- I don't wanna talk
about the safe table.

What he do
to make you say,

"Okay, enough
is enough"?

I just-- I was just ready.

So you just woke up?
Ding, ding, ding, ding!

- Bells.
- Yes, pretty much.

You just giving us
half the story.

I feel like
I'm reading a novel,

then I open it up,
the middle pages is gone.
Really?

Is it something
we're gonna find out?

It's gonna be on
the Internet again?

I'm just saying
it's, um...

it's more serious
than you guys think it is.

What happened?
So tell us what happened then.

They haven't even
heard the scariest part

and ere is no
effing way

I'm telling them
the whole story right now.

The thing is, I think he's
really starting to turn crazy
or something because...

- Starting?!
- Turn?

No, no, mm-hmm.
This is different.

Gabe scares
the hell out of me.

I mean, Trina overlooks a lot
of his crazy behavior.

The GPS did it for me.
When he had a LoJack on you.

My phone's acting funny.

I got your phone and I installed
some software on there

that allows for me
to track everything.

- you
and-- your couch

and-- that horse
that you just
rode up in on.

'Cause that some
bull-- right there, Gabe.

That's craziness!

Gabe is just
too possessive
and obsessed.

You know, even though Gabe
is cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs,

I'm just not ready
to tell the girls

everything that's going on
in our divorce.

He's trying to take
everything I've worked
so hard to build.

If they knew the whole truth
about Gabe,

they would go
absolutely ballistic.

Well, Trina,
don't you gotta go
to the bathroom?

Why?

You're not going
to the bathroom?

No, she don't need
to go to the bathroom.

You don't wanna go pee?
Go take a load off.

- Just let it out.
- I don't want to.

She don't have to pee,
Tamar, you don't have--

I'm not leaving so you can
talk about it right now.

- Oh, damn.
-Enough said.

She wanted you to leave
so she could talk about you.

- Yes.
-Right.

Coming up on
"Braxton Family Values"...

A divorce is war
and you better fight.

You better go
for their jugular.

I don't look so bad
with this.

- I look kinda cute.
- No.

- You don't think?
- No, ma'am.

I'm just trying to
figure out why you got
your purse?

Where you going?

Even though Mommy's neck
is hurting her,

she strapped on her
neck brace to hang out

with us while we
were all in town.

I wish Toni could have
been here, too,

but she had to work today.

They say old people do,
they carry their purse,

- but I don't feel
comfortable without my purse.
- I can make it more stylish.

- Here. Put it
around your shoulder.
- Oh!

Oh, drape on your--
oh, you told 'em that.

I look pretty good
with it.

- Traci.
- It's amazing.

- There you go, Traci.
- Yeah, cowgirl.

- It look great.
- Whoop, whoop.

- Whip it, whip it.
- Tamar, why do you
always do...

-...the same dance?!
- Because she's a twerking
cowgirl.

-Girl,
the same dance?
- Over and over.

- What? What? What?
What? What? What?
- See?

- What? What? What?
What? What? What?
- I make it rain.

- All over my purse.
I better take it back now.
- No.

- If it gives you
all that energy.
- Yes, honey.

'Cause I need
more energy.

You know, it feels really good
for all of us to come together.

I'm sure it's even more
comforting for my mom...

...to see us, you know,
all getting along

and just putting
whatever we have aside

just to be there
for her.

Can you turn around?

- Wow.
- What?

- I quit.
- What?!

You turned your back
completely around?

- That's the only
way I can walk.
- It's the neck brace.

It is, 'cause she
can't turn around nowhere.

Yeah.

Wait a minute,
this whole conversation
can't be about me.

I don't know.
I'd rather talk
about you than me.

So what's going on?

Finally filed for
my divorce with Gabe.

What?

It was just like,
I'm just...

sick and tired of
being sick and tired.

And I'm finally all right
and I'm finally ready.

Like, for real this time.

- For real?
- For real, for real, for real,
for real, for real, for real.

She looks so sad.

My heart just bled for her.

But sometime you've got to do
what you've got to do.

If it's not working out,

let it go,
for God's sakes.

I'm telling you
a divorce is war.

And you better fight.

You better go for
their jugular.

Yeah.

Everybody know
the jugular mean the balls.

You know, I think Tamar
thought I was talking about
something else,

but Tamar knowing me,
she know I wouldn't--

certain things
I just won't say.

I may say testicles,

but Tamar know
good and well

I didn't mean
the man's testicles.

But then, if it need be,

and you going through
a horrible divorce like that,

maybe you should.

So you watch your back.

Mommy's right.
If Gabe thinks I'm not
gonna fight for what's mine,

he's dead wrong.

The more he pisses me off,
the stronger I become.

And if Gabe wants to fight,
he better be ready to
take on all of us.

- Let's go.
- Come on, Mommy.

I know.
And all days.

I don't have my--
my jacket on.

I was happy.
He was like, "Let's go."

I was like,
"All right."

Oh, my goodness.

Tonight Kevin Jr.
surprised us and he said

he wanted to
take us out to dinner.

He's finally
missing his mama.

Yeah, right, y'all.

So I'll give you guys
a chance to look
over the menu.

- Okay.
- We got some large crabs
on order for you.

- Well, I'm giving you
all the updates. Okay?
- Okay.

Trina and Gabe
are going through
another divorce.

Another divorce?
Wow.

I would never thought
they would've woke up.

-Yeah.
- Really?

Yeah.
They seem always close.

I know.

I guess I have
some news to tell y'all.

What news?

- His blessings?
- Kevin Jr.: Yeah, for
his blessings.

- What you mean "blessings"?
-Blessings?

Blessings like
blowing the candle?

For marriage?!

My 19-year-old son?!

Proposed to his
girlfriend?!

Ooh, I'm gonna
kill him.

This is some bull--,
everybody! Really?!

Is she pregnant?

Look at my face.
