03x04 - Liar Liar

[bunniefuu]

I met Destinie
on a prison penpal site.

You're bringing somebody around
our kids who's been in prison.

If everything goes well,
we'll get married, and...

I wasn't good enough to marry,
but good enough to have your kids?

I have never met Destinie in person.
I've only seen pictures.

There are a couple of things
that I haven't told her.

DESTINIE: Hi!

I have to come clean.

I'm considered a hot commodity.

I'm financially secure.

The right woman, to me,
is loving, understanding.

Nice butt. That is Chanda.

- Why she like you?
- There's something about me.

I know I'd like your a*s, too,

if you constantly sending me
money while I'm in jail.

Maurice and I got married
while he was in prison.

We both come from
two different worlds.

You really don't know this guy.

You may have been used
this whole time.

What I was gonna do is, just don't
tell them and just go out there.

I'm going to Vegas.

JESSICA: Maurice is not allowed to
leave the State of California yet.

He'll be violating his parole.

I just got Maurice home,

and there's no way
I'm gonna risk losing him.

Scott is my boyfriend.

I have never met Lindsey in person.

In the last few years,

I would say Scott has sent me
around $15,000 to $20,000.

SCOTT: I'm very excited
about Lindsey's release.

I just can't wait

to kiss the woman
that I've spent close to two years

developing
an awesome relationship with.

We're minutes away.

There's felonies.

Like, 30 of them.
- People can change.

I'm gonna turn the truck
into a wedding chapel

and a honeymoon suite, all in one.

I want to marry Kristianna
on the day she gets out.

We gotta get the ceremony
done in eight minutes.

If Kristianna
is late to the halfway house,

she could get sent back to prison.

Feel good about this?

It's a lot to take on.
It's just very overwhelming.

I've been incarcerated for 12 years
for armed robbery.

Quaylon is about to
live with me in Kansas City.

I told my mama I was gonna
come out there with her to Texas.

I want him close to me.

Oh, my God! Like, this is
really about to happen!

- Do you see him yet?
- No.

Look!

- That's not Quaylon.
- Are you sure?

Ooh, look.

Those two and a half years,
that's been the longest,

but today,
it's just something different.

It's like...

He's gonna make a difference
in my life, my daughter's life.

He's capable of doing anything
he put his mind to.

He has a lot of people that's
waiting for him to come home,

and I'm... I'm... I'm one of them.

- Is that him?
- Where?

Somebody's walking this way.

That IS him.

SHAVEL: That is him!

Look, look, look, look! Look!
SHAVEL LAUGHS

Look!

Oh, my God!

Quaylon!

SHE YELLS

LAUGHING

LAUGHING

It's gonna be OK.

- You all right?
- Oh!

Oh, my God. Look at you!

What's up, baby?

Oh, my goodness.

Oh!

I'm actually touching your hands!

- Yeah.
- Oh, this is BLEEP crazy!

Man, Shavel love and support,
it was, like, right on time.

She came through.
She was there for me.

When I met Shavel, I was going
through some things, you know,

so I just appreciate
everything you done for me earlier.

Straight up, I love you.

I love you too.

- I can't believe it's you!
- It's me.

Ooh!

I'm numb. I've waited so long
for this moment,

and just to have him
with his arms around me...

I don't wanna let him go.

LAUGHTER

I said we're gonna do
this little three...

This little three-huggy!

QUAYLON: Ah!

SHAVEL: This is crazy.

QUALANDRIA: This is crazy, ain't it?

Family and success, man.
That's all I want.

Dang.

Ooh-hoo-hoo!

'I wanna be put in a position

'to where my family
ain't gotta work no more.'

You know, so that's my goal, man.

That's my drive -
is to be the greatest I can be.

You know what I mean?
In everything I do.

Man, I can't believe
I'm leaving this place, man.

I wanna cuss prison out so bad,

but I ain't gon' do it.
It feel good, though.

Well, yeah. Express how you feel.

- BLEEP prison...
- Right.

- ..is what I wanna say.
- You can say that.

Trust is very important to me
in a relationship.

'I don't know
what type of conversation

'he had with his mother.

'But me and Quaylon
never discussed anything

'about me moving to Texas
right after.

'We discussed, "Hey, we're
gonna stay in Kansas City." '

I talked to him about everything
that's been going on with me,

but he hasn't told me everything,

so I need to know the truth.

JOHN: How we looking, guys?

- We're looking smooth.
- We gotta fly.

Feel good about this?

Are you dressed?

- Yep, we're dressed.
- All right.

JOHN: We gotta get the ceremony
done in eight minutes.

When I got out of prison,
John proposed to me immediately,

and now he wants to marry me
right away, and, uh...

'I'm very nervous because...

'we've only been dating
for three months.'

You can say "yea" or "nay"
at any time.

'But John is... caring.

'He's free-willed.'

I never thought
I'd find a guy like him,

so why not take a chance?

I like to fly
at the seat of my pants.

That's what life's all about.

Here we go.

- There you go.
- There you go.

OFFICIANT: All right.
Hold hands, and welcome.

Glad you made it.

NATIVE AMERICAN
CHANTING

I don't know anything
about the Native culture.

'Definitely different.'

Today, we gather around you
to support your union.

JOHN: Even though
I've been married four times,

I've never had
a Native wedding ceremony.

For me, getting married like this
means committed for life.

Let this union
be a binding of two hearts.

John, take this symbol
of commitment

and place it
on Kristianna's finger.

Kristianna, do you promise
to always communicate

with an open heart, mind
and continue to grow each day?

I do.

John, will you promise
to provide trust

and vow to keep your heart open
in times of sorrow?

By the powers of the Creator
and the State of Iowa,

you may now kiss your beloved.

- Hey.
- Hey, there we go.

NATIVE AMERICAN
CHANTING

I can't even express into words
how I feel today

about what John has done for me.

I'm overwhelmed with feelings
right now. Um...

I'm just kinda shaky.

You guys gotta get scooting.

Now I have to make it
to the facility on time.

Gotta get the stairs in first.

KRISTIANNA: 'I don't wanna be late

'because I could get a major ticket
and get sent back.'

- Ready?
- Yup.

As it stands right now,
we're half an hour late

to get there...

..and that's going 80.

- Ooh-yah!
- Drop it.

KRISTIANNA: 'I've been in and out
of prison for 14 years.'

I have never
successfully completed a parole.

We got you.

Now I'm panicking. I don't
want to get in any trouble.

My truck door is jammed.

Do you want me to kick the door?

Perfect.

- Drive safe.
- Absolutely.

OK, do you know
which way you're going?

Yup.

It feels amazing
to be married to Kristianna,

but the honeymoon could be over
before we even start.

KRISTIANNA: I'm gonna be BLEEP late.

SCOTT: I'm finally
going to see Lindsey,

and I just can't wait
to kinda grab and kiss

the woman of my dreams,

the person
I've fallen in love with.

I've got the limo waiting.

I've got steaks and Champagne
and the cake,

and Brenda and Mylie Grace,
Lindsey's mom and daughter,

they're in the car,
driving to see Lindsey

at the halfway house
within the hour.

I'm just wondering when Lindsey
is gonna appear down that gate.

Is that Lindsey? No, no, no.

People keep coming,
and I don't see Lindsey.

I'm like,
"What the hell's going on?"

Starting to get really nervous.

You know, this move down here
to Mississippi

was to be with Lindsey.

I bought a house for us

to cultivate our relationship
together,

so, you know,
there's a lot riding on this.

I'm positive this was her flight.

Thirty people come off that plane,

and I'm like, "What the BLEEP?"

I'm at a loss
to explain what's going on.

She gonna be a sugar baby
looking for a sugar daddy.

That's all it is! She's gon'
use my daddy for his money.

Do I look like
I'll let a BLEEP use me?

If it's me and her against
the world, that's what it is.

JESSICA: It's really important
that Maurice

gets the parole switched
to Las Vegas.

MAURICE: Ain't nothing out here
but trouble, man.

JESSICA: He could
go back to prison.

He could get shot and k*lled.
- So I gotta get out of state.

I have six kids.

Well, I thought
that you only had two.

What kind of man goes after
some 27-year-old girl?

What's wrong with him?

- Ooh.
- Slide it over, Ty.

- What's going on, man?
- Hey, what's up?

- What's up?
- What's up, sister?

ALL GREETING
EACH OTHER

I haven't been to
a social gathering in a while,

so I decided to bring my kids
to one of my friend houses.

Hey, baby.

I share bits and pieces
about Chanda to my kids.

I told them she's incarcerated,

but they don't really know
too much about her

because I'm a little bit wary
they're not gonna accept Chanda.

Oh, man.

I heard about this new woman
you got.

Come on. You keep it a secret.

The thing is, man, and I'm
gonna keep it real with you

cos, you know, we family. Um...

You know, she's, like, 28.

- Right.
- I'm 49.

Remember Hugh Hefner?

Yeah. Oh, he was 70,
and she was 30!

Exactly. He was happy.

He was a little old, yeah.

- Hey, what's up, nephew?
- What's good, man?

- How you doing?
- Ty, what we discussing, man?

Life.

I got divorced when I was 30,

and I was going to
remain a bachelor,

but I'm just lonely,
so I hope my kids would prefer

me to be with
anybody who make me happy.

You know about this little woman
he met?

Yeah. Young, pretty Black girl?

- No, she's white.
- White?!

- Yeah, she's white.
TYRICE: Yeah, she's white.

You got a problem with that?

Oh! Hey... Hey, I didn't know
she was white.

- What difference does...
- No, no. No.

I don't have to tell you
what colour she is.

That ain't your business.
- That don't mean nothing.

OK, so what you runnin' on now for?

OK, you right.

I'm not r*cist!
- We know you're not.

I don't care if she's white,
yellow, green or-or brown.

As long as my father likes her
and approve of her,

it don't matter how I feel.

TYRESHIA: That's not true.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry to cut in.

If I meet this lady,
and I don't like her,

and I tell you, "I don't like
her," how would you feel?

Well, why wouldn't you like her?
Because she white?

TYRESHIA: We don't care about white.

Like, we don't care
about stuff like that.

We wanna know who she is,
where she from.

LIL TY:
We just wanna meet her.

You didn't talk to your kids before?

They know bits and pieces.

LIL TY: We tell each other
everything.

Yeah. OK.

Well, you know what?
I tell you what.

Check it out.
That's the picture.

LIL TY: Oh, man.
She's very nice-looking.

She nice-looking.
TYRESHIA: Yeah, she not ugly.

TYRICE: She's 28.

LIL TY: Ma-a-a-an!

BLEEP.

She using you, old man.

My old man is old.
I'm protective over him,

and if she 28, I don't trust her.

He don't know what the BLEEP
he be getting into, you know?

She's gonna be a sugar baby
looking for a sugar daddy.

That's all it is!
That's all it is!

She use... She gon' use
my daddy for his money!

Point-blank here, she 28 years old.

I'm 28. I know how it is!

Sit your a*s down.
Let me tell you something.

Let me tell you something.
Sit down.

Do I look like
I'll let a BLEEP use me?

- Ah, it ain't gotta be that...
- No, you think she using me.

How you know? How you know?

Cos she young!
TYRESHIA: Y'all so loud!

I know 28-year-olds.

You pissing me off.

REGGIE: They're just...
They're concerned.

All we sayin' is, we wanna make sure
she in it for the right reasons.

My dad is loving, caring,
supportive.

My whole life, you know,
we always had a tight bond.

How long she been in jail?

Almost three years.

- Three years?
- Yeah.

I really hope my daddy
don't get his heart broke.

I really hope she for him,
but he barely know her,

so it's like,
I don't really trust her.

Don't worry about
what you shouldn't worry about.

No, we have to worry
about these things.

- Hey!
- No. Yeah, no, yeah.

Do you take care of me?

Hold up! Hold up!

You worried about
if my bills is paid?

Hell, no!

We don't worry 'bout
your bills being paid.

OK, don't worry about nothing else.
You feel what I'm saying?

I feel if somebody
tryin' to hurt you,

now we gotta react to it,
so no, I don't feel what you said.

- I didn't...
- Her. Use...

I don't think she got
no good intentions with you.

OK. Well, it don't matter.
It's my life.

You know, I understand my kids,

but this might be the best thing
that ever happened to me.

You won't know unless you
take a chance, so you know what?

If it's me and her against
the world, that's what it is.

Prove me wrong.

I wanna take a shower.

Is that what that smell is?

BLEEP you!

Oh, this is very cute.

These are my favourite ones.

This is a lot of stuff, Shawn.

You did such a good job.
I can't even believe it.

It feels so good to be out.

I just got out of prison
and met Shawn for the first time.

SHAWN: Hi!
- Hi, babe!

Whoo!

I see you come
with a lot of baggage.

Hi!

I love you.
- I love you, too.

Things so far are amazing,

and they're better than
I thought they would be.

He seems fun.
He's got his BLEEP together.

He's funny.
Like, we get along great.

You can just tell
he's, like, all about me.

I'm really excited
to see my mom and my sister.

It's been, like,

three years since I've seen my mom,
a little over.

She's not even gonna recognise you,
huh?

Not with all this weight, no.

I'm very nervous to go and meet
my mom and sister for lunch

because my mom, she has no filter,

and she can be very mean
sometimes.

But I think that Shawn
is that kind of person

that everybody would just love.

I don't think that he has any
BLEEP-up qualities about him,

so I'm not too worried
about that.

This is gonna be
very nerve-racking

meeting your mom and your sister
after just talking to them

a couple of times on the phone.

Well, you don't think it's
gonna be nerve-racking for me

when I meet your family?

SHAWN: There are a few things
that I haven't told Destinie.

I'm very pissed at myself
for letting it go this far

and get out of control
when I could've just told her,

cos she's probably gonna understand.

But the problem is, it just got
so far out of hand. I just...

I didn't stop it
when I should have.

BRITNIE: She's here!

DENISE: Oh, my God.
- Hi!

Look, she comes strolling in,
like, "Hey!"

Oh, my God.

- Ah!
- Britnie, this is Shawn.

- Hello.
- Nice to meet you.

Hi, Mom. Hi!

Shawn, this is my mom.

- Hello.
- OK.

LAUGHTER

- All right.
- Well, you smell good.

I'll have to say that.

Well, you look good.
- Oh, I feel fat.

- How does it feel to be out?
- I'm happy to be out.

Are you guys enjoying it?

Is it like you guys talked so much,
it's just natural?

- It was kinda natural.
SHAWN: It was natural.

I was surprised.
Like, I was nervous.

DESTINIE: I don't think
it's hit me really yet.

It's too good to be true.

What's next?
The cops are gonna come get me,

next thing you know,
I'm going back.

I don't know, like...
- Yeah.

Oh, God. I'm gonna need BLEEP.
LAUGHTER

I'm about to have
a heart attack over here.

DENISE: Destinie
has been my hardest child,

and at some point, I got angry,
so I quit talking to her

because of something she did
and said,

and I should've never done that,
probably.

You know, I walked away from her.
Anyways...

I'm not gonna blame me
for why she's a criminal

cos I'm not a criminal.

Um... I know she wants to do good,

and I hope that she has it in her.
She's got a whole life ahead of her.

SHAWN SPEAKING
INDISTINCTLY

- Mmm!
- Yeah. That's awesome.

Whoo! Here.

God, that BLEEP is better
than hooch from prison, promise.

What does hooch taste like?

Hooch is, um... pretty sweet.
It's kind of like rotten fruit.

The girl that made it for me
all the time,

she would always put
Sierra Mist in it.

That's cool.

Yeah, and bake cakes,
all sorts of BLEEP.

Yeah, I did it in there.
- "I did it in there."

I was like Martha Stewart,
huh, babe?

CHUCKLES

DENISE:
What I think about Shawn, well,

he went on a website and...
got ahold of a name.

And it's like he's fishing.

I'm not gonna know
until it's all said and done,

and I just hope that it's not
heartbreak for Destinie.

I'm not sure that I want Destinie
to go to Las Vegas with him.

I don't know him,
and in order for her to do good,

I think she needs to be
in a good environment.

'I am so afraid of
Destinie going back to prison.'

I'm sweatin'!

Can you come with me to go change?
I'll be back.

Yeah, I have to go to the bathroom.

OK, Mom.
You guys act accordingly, OK?

So...

Oh, the moment
I've been waiting for.

So, you've known Destinie
for about a year?

Yeah.

And you guys seem to be
getting along good.

Yeah.

You've been married?
Do you have kids?

Never been married.

I have kids. I have, um...

I have six kids.

- Six?!
- All the same person.

Well, I thought
that you only had two.

JOHN: Hang on tight.

Turn, BLEEP. Learn how to drive!

There is no way we're gonna
make it to the halfway house.

You can't, or you don't want to?

WOMAN SPEAKING
INDISTINCTLY ON PHONE

BLEEP!

I'm just wondering when Lindsey
is gonna appear down that gate.

I'm freaking out,

and I have major anticipation

of seeing Lindsey
walking out that door.

I'm finally at the point

where my life
is finally gonna change forever.

I get to meet
the woman of my dreams,

the person I fell in love with
two years ago.

And... that didn't happen.

I'm at a loss
to explain what's going on.

I'm dumbfounded, worried.

My anxiety level skyrockets.

Like, why isn't Lindsey
on this plane?

Oh, she would've...

She would've...

No, I was just kind of
looking around and...

Lindsey gave me her complete,
detailed itinerary.

"I'm taking this flight
from San Francisco to Atlanta,

"and I'm taking
this flight from Atlanta

"to the Columbus, Mississippi
airport,

"and then I have to be at
the halfway house by this time."

So many things
are going through my mind

as to why this could've happened.

Excuse me. Was this the flight
from Atlanta?

- Yeah.
- OK.

Uh... Yeah, I was looking for
my girlfriend,

who was supposed to be on board,
and obviously, she's not.

- OK.
- I'll have to look into that.

Great. Thank you.

I don't know. Unfortunately,
with the dealings that we've had

with the Federal Bureau of Prisons
for the past two years,

this is not totally
out of a surprise,

but I wish she was able to call

to let somebody know
what was going on.

Many things
are going through my mind

as to why this could've happened,

especially since
I have not heard from her

throughout her, you know, trip,

so I have no clue what's going on.

Is she stuck somewhere?
Did she miss the bus?

Was there an issue with the prison?
Did she get in trouble?

The person was supposed
to be released today,

and I wanna check
to make sure that...

that it happened,

so can you...

WOMAN SPEAKING
INDISTINCTLY ON PHONE

BLEEP!

There's no way you can look up...

You can't, or you don't want to?

OK. So, I have to call back
between 6:00am and 2:00pm,

and the people
who can answer that question

will be able to tell me
yes or no.

At this point, I have
no knowledge of where Lindsey is.

No one will give me
any information, nothing,

so I've got a missing person

and a big, bureaucratic
organisation

that I gotta try
to get answers from,

and I'm not gonna get that answer.

I would hope that Lindsey
isn't pulling a fast one,

pulling a scam,
whatever you wanna call it.

I'd be crushed.
I mean, devastated.

MAURICE: Hey, babe?
- Yeah?

- You almost ready?
- Yeah, almost ready.

We gotta go see
this parole officer.

Gotta get this straightened out
fast.

Hey, babe, so,
what I'm gonna do is, right,

I'm gonna go in there,
let him know.

"I don't have nowhere to live
out here in LA.

"This is my marriage license,
and this is my wife home.

"I need to go home.
I don't wanna be out here, sir."

So, I gotta make my way to Compton
to see my parole officer

to check in because I got offenses
in LA County.

- You got everything?
- Yes, ma'am.

'But right now,
I can't travel outside LA.

'I wanna just start my life
with my wife in Vegas.'

It's really, really important

that Maurice gets the parole
switched to Las Vegas

because I have everything
ready for him there.

I have all his clothes.

The house is ready for him.

My job is there.
My family is there.

We can sleep in our own bed
and be safe.

But what if they
don't let you get a pass?

Sometimes, paroles can be b*tches.
Sometimes, they can be cool.

Depends on which one
I get right now.

MAURICE: LA.

Yeah. This BLEEP is not cool.

I don't wanna be over here, man.
Look at this BLEEP.

MAURICE: There's g*ng writing
all on the wall.

BLEEP.

I caught my case right here.
That is crazy. Mm-hm.

You're gonna go to Vegas.

It's gonna be so different there.
- Yeah.

Growing up, it was just me,
my mom and my sister.

And now
I got a beautiful daughter.

She's nine, and she big, for sure.

It k*lled me to see my daughter
grow up, man, through pictures.

Me being in prison, man,
I missed a whole lot of time,

and just, like, people I knew,

to see their face on an obituary
so fast, so early, like,

"He didn't even make it
to see 25."

Like, damn.
That could've been me.

Yeah, I mean, yeah.

Ain't nothing out here
but trouble, man,

and I don't need to be
around that BLEEP.

JESSICA: Are you nervous?

- A little bit.
- I'm a little nervous.

Yeah, park over here.
Park right here, baby.

I never ever, ever, EVER
wanna go back to prison, never.

I never wanna do that again.

Mm-hm.

But the California
three-strike law is,

"Three strikes, and you out."

Simple. I've got two strikes.

If I was to get in trouble again,

my a*s may be grass,
so I gotta get outta state.

KRISTIANNA:
Are you going the right way?

God, I hope so. Son of a b*tch!

KRISTIANNA:
I don't want to lose something

that is finally right in my life.

Lindsey did not get off the plane.

You sure it's not a scam?

There's a possibility
that she's using me for money.

Nine times out of ten,
maybe, it wasn't real.

- Hi, welcome to Lover's Lane.
- How are you doing today?

I'm looking for some lingerie
for my girl.

She's been gone, like, three years.
- Oh, wow.

I wanna get her something sexy.

There's a red one right here
that's really nice.

Chanda told me the other day,

the very first thing she wanna do
once released from prison

is to get out the prison underwear.

So, here's some panties on it.

'Chanda got a nice a*s. OK?'

She's tired of the grandma panties.

I see y'all got
a lot of wild stuff in here.

- Yeah.
- You know?

I don't wanna scare her, so
I just wanna take it nice and slow.

The sex is gonna be amazing.
I already know.

Trust me. I know.

JESSICA: Just stay calm.

It's gonna be all right.

They said
that you can't go to Vegas?

What does that mean?
- I don't know right now.

BLEEP got me irritated.

I can't deal with these people.

'My PO says
I cannot leave California.'

I gotta wait
till my PO transfer to Vegas.

JESSICA: How long do you think
it's gonna be?

Maybe a month or two. You never
know. Sometimes it varies.

It takes 30 days
for them to review it,

and then 30 days to send it back,

so basically,
I gotta do 60 days in LA.

PHONE RINGING OUT

- TIFF: 'Hello?'
- Auntie, I went in there,

and they basically said
that the paperwork,

even though
they put it in Friday,

it just don't happen overnight,
so I gotta wait, like, basically.

And it's like they really
don't give a BLEEP, Auntie.

They really don't.

'Wow.'

'It's, like, it's crazy. I can't
go home, and I'm married.'

I got a home,
but I can't go to it.

I don't understand that.
That's BLEEP to me.

I don't even know what to do
no more, man.

BLEEP. I'm ready to go.

JESSICA: 'We wanna be together.
We don't wanna be split up again.

'They WANT him to go back
to prison, it feels like.'

These people, they don't give
a BLEEP. Like, they don't care.

I just want you to come home.

Well, I'll be home. All right?

I just don't wanna go back
to Vegas without Maurice.

What if he goes back to Compton,
where he's from?

He could go back to prison.
He could get shot and k*lled.

And I'm scared as hell
that that could happen.

MAURICE:

JESSICA: No, we can't go.
MAURICE: No, we going.

OK, so, I have to call back
between 6:00am and 2:00pm?

No-one at the prison can tell me

whether she actually
was released or not.

I have to call back tomorrow.

'I'm concerned about
Lindsey not being on the plane.

'Where is she?
Did she get released?'

What's going on? What caused this?

I've gotta call Brenda
and disappoint them

and let them know that Lindsey
did not get off the plane.

'I'm frustrated with the situation.

'Did anything bad happen?'

And unfortunately,
more times than not,

you cannot get an answer from
the Federal Bureau of Prisons

if something is going on.

OK, so, here's the situation.

Lindsey did not get off the plane.

My guess is,

our good old friends
at the Federal Bureau of Prisons

screwed up somehow.

I wish I could tell you more.
I wish she was here with me.

It's a big disappointment.

Mylie Grace, I know you're
very disappointed and upset,

but we will get her home here
as soon as we can, OK?

It's very difficult
to tell a child,

"Well, she was
supposed to be here.

"She's not,
and we don't know why."

I'm gonna make that call
first thing in the morning,

and I will let you know
right away, OK?

OK, thank you.
We'll talk to you later.

Hey, hey, how's it going?
Everything all right?

- No, not at all.
- What's wrong?

Lindsey did not
get off the plane.

- Wow.
- Yeah, sucks.

When I find out what happened
and make sure she's OK,

I'll feel better.
- Right.

But that's not gonna happen
until tomorrow.

It's gon' be OK.

All right. So, I guess we can,
unfortunately, head back...

- OK.
- Empty-handed, at this point.

LARRY:
Scott, he's very disappointed

cos he was getting to meet
his bride-to-be, maybe.

You know, from my understanding,
when you got a release date,

and you got a date
to be at the halfway house,

then you have to be there.

So if she didn't
get on that plane,

then, nine times out of ten,
maybe...

it wasn't real.

I do have some steaks, cake.

I can carry this.
- OK, then.

You know, I'm hungry,
I'm exhausted, so...

LARRY: Oh, it looks delicious.

The aggravation level
is getting very high.

LARRY: This is the first time
happening, huh?

Oh, I've never experienced
anything like this, no.

Yeah.
- How long she been in prison?

- Four years.
- OK.

So you spent a lot of money
on this girl?

I mean, you sure
it's not a scam or something?

This girl has brought me
into her family here,

her mother, her daughter.

- OK.
- That's not a scam.

OK.

As long as you're sure about it,
that's the best thing.

Obviously, you have to
build trust with anybody,

and I've done that with Lindsey,
but there's always a possibility

that she has been using me
for money.

I really hope that's not the case.

How much trouble can you get in
for a ticket for this?

I've never taken my truck
to this limit before.

Speed limits are just a suggestion
at this point!

All right. I'm gonna
have to take a left up here,

it looks like,
once I weave through this BLEEP.

- Hi, Mom.
- Tammy: 'Hi.'

I just got married.

I just got married.

Say hi to my mom.
- Hi, Mom!

It's going good,

but your son-in-law
is gonna drive like a madman

to get his wife to the halfway house
on time.

KRISTIANNA:
Today, when I got out of prison,

I had no idea
that I was about to get married.

You know, I'm just
taking a chance at love,

but I realise that I'm gonna
be late for the halfway house.

I've been to prison eight times
for different charges,

mostly all burglaries.

I'd go out,
and I'd start robbing people

and do whatever I could
just to get the next fix.

So I've been spending my life
in and out of prison for 14 years.

I've lost, like, half my life.

'Just knowing that I screwed up
again would be bad.

'I'm trying to keep myself
together.'

Ooh, Highway 80. Ha-ha.

- Are you going the right way?
- God, I hope so.

My GPS froze!
- Highway 80.

- Highway 80?
- That's West 80.

We need West 80?

- Or, wait...
- No, we need East 80.

Son of a b*tch!

We're definitely
pressed for time now.

"Pressed" is not the term
I would use.

I think you make a right here, babe.

Well, I'll stay in touch
with you, OK, Mom?

All right. Love you.

JOHN: Hang on tight.

- I'm gonna be BLEEP late.
- I'll get you there.

Come on, baby.

What do you got in the backpack,
babe?

Pretty much everything
back there

except for one bag is yours.

Pick out an outfit you wanna wear,
and you can change in the truck.

Then I can see you naked.
SHE LAUGHS

The original plan
was to have sex at the park

to consummate the marriage.

Obviously, we didn't have time.

I've waited this long.
I can wait as long as it takes.

Absolutely!

I think I just had to eye him.

'You know, he probably got
a BLEEP just looking at me.'

I think he was shaking
in his boots.

Damn. She looks hot.

These people need to get going.

I hate being stuck in traffic
like this.

- Yeah.
- It gives me anxiety.

We're supposed to be at
the halfway house in 20 minutes,

and we are still
about an hour away.

There is no way we're gonna make it
to the halfway house in time.

The worst-case scenario
would be...

her PO is a major jerk
and sends her to jail.

Turn, BLEEP! Learn how to drive.

I hope she doesn't
get in any trouble.

KRISTIANNA: Baby, I can't believe
we're running this late.

Shawn, how old are you?

- What?
- She said, "How old are you?"

He could have somebody
in his basement.

He could be a pervert.
Like, we really don't know.

Come on, people. Let's go.

I'm supposed to be there
at 11:30.

I know. I'm working on it.

KRISTIANNA: Right outside of
Dubuque, I get very nervous

because this is where I've been
and where I screwed up,

and where I started getting high.

JOHN: Yep.

Excited?
- No.

And the facility is that
brick building right up here.

See it?
- Where am I gonna park?

So, park up in front
of this truck if you can.

This is my eighth time
being released on parole,

and I've been to this
halfway house at least four times.

I feel like it's a trap.

There's drug users in there,
drug dealers,

and it's the same people.

'I'm tired of going in and out.

'And being late
makes me very nervous.'

I'm really worried
about going back to prison

because John
is so important to me.

I don't want to lose something
that...

is finally right in my life.

You've been married?
Do you have kids?

Never been married.
I have kids. I have...

I have, um, I have six kids.

- Six?!
- All the same person.

Well, I thought
that you only had two.

- You thought I only had two?
- Yeah.

When I first was
talking to Destinie,

I did tell her that,
and that's because

I just didn't wanna
bring my whole life at that time

cos I didn't know her that well,
and...

So, it sounds like you guys

um, don't know a lot
about each other. Um...

Just the parts that you guys
want to be known.

When people
start lying about their kids,

and they're not honest
about this or that,

what are you hiding?

The fact that he's older -
what kind of man

goes after a 27-year-old girl?

What's wrong with him?

What are your intentions
with Destinie?

Well, hopefully marry her.

Whoa! I think that you guys
are moving too quick.

I-I don't know.
I'm just gonna see what happens

and kind of go from there.

You know, her moving in with you,
I'm just...

I don't think you're gonna
be able to handle her.

She can probably chew you up
and spit you out.

This makes my boobs
look super big.

BRITNIE: Turn around.
I think it looks fine.

DESTINIE: Now that you met him,
what do you think?

Do you like Shawn the way you
thought you were gonna like him?

Is it better over the phone,
in jail?

Well, you can fake anything
over the phone, so...

Like, are you sure you wanna go
all the way to Vegas with this guy?

Yeah, I wanna go. I wanna
go to Vegas and try this out.

Like, I think it's gonna be fun.
- Yeah...

When it comes to Destinie, you know,

you can see
her whole rap sheet.

You know, you can look her up,
it's public record.

But with Shawn,
you don't know cos, uh,

we can't look him up
on public records.

We don't know where he comes from.

He could have somebody
in his basement.

He could be a pervert.
Like, we really don't know.

Does this look fine?

Yeah, that looks fine.

Do I think that, like...
I don't know about this.

He got what I wanted,

but they just don't fit me
like I thought they would.

Like, honestly, I like him,
and I hope things work,

but, Britnie, you know, like,
I don't like to settle down.

- Yeah.
- I don't know.

Maybe it's just because
I always self-sabotage.

I'm a little nervous about this
still, you know?

Like, I'm not... I don't know
if I'm really ready to really...

not do what I wanna do.

She's my baby girl,
and she might be a lot to handle,

but if anything
were to happen to her,

I'd just... I don't even
wanna think like that.

Babe, the clothes
didn't fit me the way

I wanted them to fit me,
so I just didn't wear them.

SHAWN: OK.

It didn't go how I wanted,
so... Bam!

She's just a*usive. Like,
in the car, she smacked me.

Well, you're talking BLEEP.

It almost could be called
elder abuse, you know.

HE CHUCKLES
SARCASTICALLY

LAUGHTER
What?!

You gotta be, like,
close to 50 or 55

when you start talking elderly.
- Yeah, that's right. You're right.

He's younger.
He's way younger than me.

What?

- Shawn, how old are you?
- What?

She said, "How old are you?"

I'm 45.

What the BLEEP?
I thought you told me you were 36.

No, you just
automatically assumed that.

I didn't automatically
think that.

You told me you were 36.
- No, you just assumed.

BRITNIE: Yeah, that's interesting.

I'm walking on eggshells
at this point.

What else are you
not telling me about?

Like, this is crazy as BLEEP.

How many kids do you have?
- Well...

Babe!

Oh, my gosh.

Quaylon went to prison
as a little boy,

so now he get to experience
a grown-a*s woman.

I just hope
she is who you think she is.

You're gonna lose your kids,
you're gonna lose everybody.

Is she still at the facility?

She's just smart enough
to stay in trouble.

Every minute she spend up in there
is one less minute with me.

I don't know what's going on.

Nobody's heard from her.

I'm afraid she might
do something crazy.

I'd rather him
be with somebody normal

than somebody like you.
- Hey. Hey, stop.

I don't see you staying at all.
That's what I think.

All this was planned out,
all of it.

Do you think she's here to use you?

I had this perfect picture
of how it was gonna be

when I got out,
and I missed the mark.

What if you go back to jail?

You with me, or you against me?

Have her call you, you lying BLEEP!

There's obviously something else
going on.

Slow the BLEEP down.

I'm on BLEEP parole!
