previously
on "90 day fiancé"...
michael: juliana and i met
on a big yacht party
and i was amazed
that she was 20 years old.
have you talked about
how she's going to stepparent?
i don't pretend at all
that she's going to
take over a mother role
like you.
i'm so excited
for this.
i'm excited, too.
emily: i am going to be
sasha's third wife
and this is his third child
with another woman.
anna: mursel is muslim,
plus we don't speak
each other's language.
hi, mursel.
when i told the boys that mursel
was going to move here,
they weren't very happy
about it.
mursel seems weird.
give him a chance, okay?
anny and i only spent
eight hours together.
right then and there,
i asked her to marry me.
right now, i really hope
anny's not all about money
because this is a red flag.
he landed 10 minutes ago.
i can't right now.
i really can't.
i planned the best coming
to america day for syngin,
and now i'm running so late,
getting stuck in traffic
to the airport,
everything is
just falling apart.
i'm so ‐‐ i'm really
mad right now.
and coming up...
she comes down here, then you
have 90 days to marry the girl?
yeah.
you only met her
how many times, like once?
once.
dominican girls, all they think
about is dollars,
dollar signs, dollar signs.
once they get that green card,
it's a done deal.
what's that make me,
a pimp?
no, she's not a prost*tute.
i need to go outside
for a bit.
how does mursel's family
feel about your kids?
mursel doesn't want
to tell his family.
that's messed up.
he landed 10 minutes ago.
i can't right now.
i'm going to pick up syngin from
the airport and there's traffic,
i am stressed out
because i'm late.
i always want things
to be perfect,
and now things aren't perfect,
so i am having, like,
an anxiety attack.
okay, my heart.
terminal four.
i'm nervous.
what'd he say?
oh, he messaged you.
"i'm on the plane,
you're my dream girl,
this is all so crazy.
i'm a lucky guy
to have a girl like you
waiting for me."
wait, check
your voice message.
i'm not ready.
‐yep.
‐oh, gosh.
wait.
‐i think straight.
‐okay.
baggage claim?
‐okay.
‐yes.
all right,
let's start grabbing petals,
that way we just have to
sprinkle them around us.
‐okay.
‐right here.
‐oh, let's ‐‐
‐put them around.
put them around.
give me one because i'm going
to do like a little...
and you should hold
these flowers, i feel like.
‐okay.
‐ooh, yeah,
‐that looks really pretty.
‐right?
‐okay.
‐want me to hold this?
yeah, start opening it.
how's my hair?
‐perfect.
‐the day is finally here.
he's in america.
like, he's called me.
he landed. he's here.
i'm nervous, excited,
energized, tired, everything.
i'm like shaking,
i can't even touch my phone.
i'm nervous, i'm very nervous.
i just don't know.
yeah.
with the visa, it's really
pushing her to have to
rush to actually get
officially married,
and i just hope we see him
like she sees him,
i hope it's not like ‐‐
yeah.
yeah, i'm just nervous
about that part. i'm like...
yeah, of course
we're going to judge,
that's what we're here for.
what if we don't ‐‐ we're here
for her 100% though.
‐for sure.
‐yeah.
i'm sure he's going to be
judging us too though.
i'm paying attention,
is what i'm doing.
so, i see people
getting their bags.
i know. oh, he's going
to have like a big, army,
military camo bag,
which it might be easy to spot.
and that's it,
that's all i know.
oh, oh, sir, please, no.
no, no, i'm so sorry, but we
were waiting for somebody.
‐i know, but...
‐nope, uh‐uh.
wait, you can wait like
two minutes.
he's coming right now.
he's coming.
don't even think about it.
i know,
this is more anxiety.
like, uhh, where you at?
i'm realizing i'm actually
not breathing.
don't forget to breathe.
let's not forget that.
now i'm really
lightheaded.
‐oh, i see him!
‐that's him,
camo backpack
and his hair.
and his hair.
woo, syngin!
yo, yo, yo!
oh, wait.
i want to get a picture.
yes! oh, my god!
oh, my god.
he's right here.
i don't know how to pop it.
i can't breathe.
my name is syngin.
i'm 29 years old,
and i'm all the way
from cape town, south africa.
do you want to try?
whoo!
it's quite a surreal moment
because when i met tania,
i didn't really see it
as a thing,
because i thought maybe
this is just going to be
a one‐night stand.
oh! oh‐h*!
but now it's like, i'm planning
on getting married in 90 days.
‐aww.
‐i'm finally in america.
it feels fantastic, amazing,
a lot of emotions that are
flowing right now and...
that's how, i'm like,
i don't even know what happened.
i blacked out.
it feels, like,
overwhelming.
yes! pucker up!
pucker up!
you're here. he's here.
he's here.
‐we're in america!
‐whoo!
you're here.
it's so nice to meet
everybody.
oh, yeah, so this is
marian. marian, syngin.
‐yeah.
‐monique. monique, syngin.
they'll see a lot
of me now, yeah.
‐see?
‐see a lot of each other.
i'm real.
tania is not fake
having a boyfriend.
this is the start
of our 90 days.
yeah. 90 days to figure out
if our future's a lie.
you're going to be
my old ball and chain?
i'll be your old ball and chain,
whatever that means.
you're so ‐‐
oh, stuck to you,
something like that.
i'll take that.
thanks for the flowers.
that's super cool.
juliana has her visa interview
next week
and we hope that
this is the last step.
and within a few weeks,
she'll be with me in america.
this has been a very long,
trying process for juliana,
for both of us,
but especially her.
and i thought getting her
a nice piece of jewelry
would make her feel good
about being here in america
and make her feel loved.
‐i'm robert.
‐hey, robert.
‐pleasure to meet you.
‐pleasure to meet you.
what's got you out today?
hoping to get a nice
piece of jewelry.
okay.
my fiancé, she's in brazil.
oh, wow.
she's coming to america
hopefully and ‐‐
hopefully?
what do you mean hopefully?
well, we're trying
to get her a visa.
‐oh, okay.
‐and that's not an easy thing.
you have anything specific
in mind?
well, i was thinking
trying to do something
in a red, white,
blue theme from america
and then something to bring
in her brazilian identity,
so green and gold.
okay.
i'm very open minded.
all right. come on back.
i'm a very sentimental person,
and juliana is very modest,
so i'd like to give her gifts
that will carry some weight
and meaning
if we do something like this,
turn this red, white
and blue like that.
and is the setting what?
white gold?
yeah, white gold.
i spent a lot of money,
but it's okay.
this is just how i've wanted
to live my life.
it's felt right.
it's what i want to do it.
so, what my friends
and family think, i don't know.
i don't talk to them about it.
it doesn't matter
what they think.
i don't really care.
all right, so here we go.
so, now we've got that, right?
so, we got the precious topaz.
nice emeralds.
then you put that together
with the sapphires
and rubies.
it's perfect.
yeah, that's cool.
okay.
well, then let's talk
with delivery,
with tax, and everything,
what would that be?
what do we say?
$1,950.
$1,350.
so, change it into yellow gold,
you're looking at about $4,000.
all right.
want to do it?
let's do it.
all right.
it's not every day we have
somebody coming in
welcoming a fiancé
from another country.
i believe in the good in people,
but i don't know
that i could do it.
but if it makes him happy,
why not?
and then you tell her
when you give it to her,
"it's a gift.
i bought you a pendant
because i want you
to wear it close to your heart."
‐you've done this before.
‐see?
rack up a few brownie points
right off the bat.
i don't even want to think
about how much money
i may have spent on her to date.
i ‐‐ i don't know.
i don't know.
i don't want to comment.
hold on a second.
hey, sweetie. what's up?
hello?
i'm just not in a great place
to try to sort this out
at the moment,
but let me see
what i can do.
you're gonna ‐‐ you have ‐‐
i don't know.
you have the bank card
and you have the other card.
he's talking about
credit cards.
yeah,
that's the bank card.
i have let her use
my credit cards,
especially when she's in brazil.
i want to make sure she's safe.
she can feed herself,
get groceries,
but she does sometimes
use questionable judgments
in some of the spending.
i got to tell you,
i think that card is like...
you probably maxed it out,
so i'd have to see
what's going on.
oh
she recently bought a car
on my credit card,
which was very unusual
and not expected.
yeah, try that one.
let me know.
i'm not sure exactly why
juliana bought a car.
she should be moving to america
within a few weeks.
i think it was
a bit of a impulse,
quite a big expense
for an impulse.
let me let me know
if it works or not.
okay? all right.
i love you. bye.
i do want her to respect
the value of things
and the value of working hard.
and i hope that especially
when she gets to america,
this is something that
she'll quickly learn
and won't become a problem.
you know, these things
have their limits.
evidently not.
well, oh, my gosh.
there is some pressure
on this first meeting.
it has to go well because we're
all going to be living together.
nope, that's fine.
that's fine.
you only met her
how many times? like once?
once.
bringing a girl from d.r.
to the united states is insane.
are you ready?
okay.
my fiancé mursel just arrived
from turkey last night.
you get to see your new house,
mursel, in nebraska.
you get to see the bees.
let's go.
we spent our first night in
the hotel next to the airport.
last night was great.
that's all i'm going to say.
you're excited?
meet joey and gino?
yes.
are you?
let's hope they got
their chores done.
today, we are driving back from
chicago to nebraska,
and mursel is going to meet
my boys for the first time.
it's a pretty long drive,
but mursel has never been
to the u. s.,
so i'm excited for mursel
to see it.
what?
mountains?
no mountains over here.
huh?
flat? yes.
the great plains.
yes.
corn? so much corn.
oh.
turkish culture makes mursel
so happy.
anytime he hears turkish music,
he's singing and dancing.
he loves it.
he'll do it wherever.
so, it might embarrass me
a little bit,
but i'm going to have to
just deal with it
because he's going to be
my future husband.
oh!
i'm excited for mursel
to see my life.
i don't think it's going to be
what he's expecting.
mursel and i have only spent
and i'm starting to get nervous
about mursel meeting the boys.
the boys have never met mursel,
and i don't know how
they're going to react to him.
i hope everything goes okay.
there is some pressure
on this first meeting.
it has to go well because we're
all going to be living together.
are you ready?
‐hello.
‐hey, mursel.
‐oh.
‐hey, boys.
‐leo!
‐hi, mom.
‐how are you guys?
‐good. how are you?
‐oh, my god.
‐that's fine.
no, it's fine.
no, no, no.
no. nope, that's fine.
that's fine.
it's a head bump.
it's fine. it's fine.
it's fine.
how was the trip?
here. he uses
a translator.
okay, so ‐‐
yeah, what do i do?
voice?
how was your trip?
oh, good.
do you like pizza?
i like pizza.
you do like pizza?
i like pizza.
you don't think so.
is that go‐‐
i don't know if that ‐‐
çok guzel?
is that good or bad?
‐good.
‐good.
‐what's bad?
‐kotu is bad.
‐well, are you guys hungry?
‐yes.
all right, let's get pizza,
come on.
joey: i don't know how i feel
about the situation right now.
i'm not worried about making
a good impression
of me to mursel.
i just think he should
try to be creating
a good image for himself.
‐this some good pizza.
‐this is good pizza.
not turkish ‐‐
turkish pizza?
turkish pizza is good.
american pizza bad?
yeah?
well....
gino.
bad?
yeah, he says it's bad.
gino: i don't think he really
liked the pizza
or the ‐‐ or, like ‐‐
or just, like, the house.
he thinks that
turkish places,
turkish things, are better,
and i'm kind of like, "oh."
what do you guys
think so far?
no, he doesn't.
what do you mean?
he's not even a part
of the family yet.
just because he's in
the house doesn't mean
he's part of the family.
just give him a chance.
he's a good guy.
i'm not interested in getting
to know mursel right now,
because i just think, like,
it's all too fast,
and she thinks he can be
our new dad or something.
but it's not that.
i don't think the same.
you want to play leo?
‐yeah.
‐let's let him play.
here, wait.
yeah. give him that one.
‐no.
‐yes, yes, yes, yes.
‐anna likes games.
‐yeah.
she's like, oh, my, god,
so good. i beat you guys.
video games, çok guzel.
every day is...
çok guzel.
i got a question.
okay.
do you plan on giving us
a bunch of rules?
no.
good.
can somebody go get
mursel's luggage?
i'm feeling, um, concerned.
it was really awkward.
i thought joey would give him
an easy time, but nope.
in the next 90 days,
it's very important
that mursel builds
a relationship with my boys,
or i don't know if this
relationship's going to work.
have two days until my fiancée,
anny, arrives,
and tonight i'm getting drinks
with one of my
best friends, juan.
i've known him
about four years now.
oh, we pretty cool.
we close. we tight.
what's up, bro?
about time, homie.
how's it going
with you?
i'm all right,
how're you?
chilling, man,
chilling.
you know,
doing the same thing.
hustling, working.
dealing with my boy.
how you doing, miss?
a beer.
thank you.
i tell him that anny was coming
to the united states
so we could get married,
and like anny,
juan is also from
the dominican republic,
and he has some concerns.
brah, this is going to be
my last time really
chilling before my lady get here
on saturday, you know?
juan: i'm from the same country
as she is.
dominican girls, all they think
about is dollars,
dollar signs. dollar signs.
bringing a girl from d.r.
to the united states is insane.
so what's the deal
with your girl, man?
when she gets here, i just want
to give my lady my all,
go out with her,
enjoy my life and have fun,
and my son will have
a loving woman to be around,
that's going to give him
that motherly love.
i mean, i hope ‐‐
i hope i'm wrong,
but do you know her
like that, man?
yeah, i know her.
we talk.
we talk every day, bro.
you know her by phone,
basically.
'cause you only met her
how many times? like once?
once.
thing is that he seems like
he really loves this girl.
when you love someone,
it's hard to see
what's going on around you.
so this is another point that
i'm going to bring up to you.
all right.
and i don't want you
to get upset, bro,
because you know,
we boys.
yeah, i'm listening.
why a girl from
over there, man?
you're going through spending
money to bring her down here,
and she haven't asked you
for anything?
i mean, nothing at all?
yeah, she want an iphone
when she gets here,
but other than that, nah,
she don't really bother me
to tough about
giving her stuff.
yeah, i'm not going
to believe you, bro.
you haven't sent her
any type of money?
i send her money.
i send her money,
but she don't ask for it.
i just send it.
she don't need to ask for it
because you sending it.
not all the time, though.
random.
but she's expecting it.
it's not on a weekly thing.
you're spending
money, man.
you're spending money
on a girl
that unknowing what she's
going to do afterward.
well, like, yo, what
relationship you don't spend it?
but not like this, though.
i'm telling you man, from what
i see bro, it's not worth it.
i don't feel that way.
i don't feel that energy
with her.
i'm telling you man,
those girls in d. r. right now,
they can play the game.
they can play the game good.
until they get
that green card.
once they get that green card,
it's a done deal.
robert: i know if juan is just
trying to look out for me,
but he's a little bit
out of line.
he don't even know anny.
have you met her?
have you even talked to her,
spent time with her?
you say you know
the girls in your ‐‐
but i know my girls, bro.
i know the girls
from my country.
how are they
your girls, man?
you don't know each and every
girl in that country.
she's acting right now,
but you really want her,
and she knows
she can get it from you.
she comes down here, then you
have 90 days to marry the girl?
yeah.
and you know what's going to
happen after that 90 days?
what?
i know a friend of mine.
my boy was just like you, man.
this guy used to brag
about his girl.
ah, man, i got this girl
that's in d. r.,
i'm going to
bring her down here,
we're going to get married,
all of that stuff.
six months later, gone.
don't do it, man.
don't do it?
you're my boy. i'm letting
you know what's going on, man,
and what's going to happen
after those 90 days.
you're going to last
three months with her,
until she gets her paper.
done deal, man.
i'm telling you.
write it down.
juan: i know what's going on,
'cause i've seen it.
they're just after the paper.
once they get the paper,
they just going
to bounce on him.
but you know what?
i respect your opinion
'cause you know me and you know
what i go through.
but i know she ain't
because i feel the energy
that she gives me.
i don't feel like
i'm being used at all.
well, i mean,
if you're happy ‐‐
and i seriously
doubt that.
i don't want her
to break your heart,
because, obviously, man,
you're in love with this girl.
yeah.
besides the money,
that's the whole point, man.
i don't want her
to break your heart.
you live, you learn.
you crash, you burn.
robert:
my homeboy juan, he's my boy,
so he's looking out for me,
but at the same time,
i'm going to live my life
and do me.
point blank.
we're going to get married,
and enjoy our life,
and you see that i'm happy
and you see that she's there.
‐i'm going to applaud.
‐how're you going to feel?
and what are you
going to say after that?
i'm going to feel stupid.
well, you're going to feel
real stupid,
because it's going to happen.
i don't know what exactly
will happen,
but i need to go
outside for a bit.
okay.
‐emily?
‐oh, hey, babe.
my love.
how do you feel?
we should prepare
to meet masha.
i hope that the baby doesn't
show up at the restaurant.
be optimistic.
yeah.
we're getting ready to go
and meet sasha's
first ex‐wife, masha,
but this is really lousy timing
because i'm nine months pregnant
and the baby could basically
come at any minute.
i can't believe
i'm meeting her.
i think i'm nervous
more than you.
why?
because she was crazy,
but this was a long time ago.
sasha and i have been engaged
while waiting for the k‐1 visa,
but i am going to be
sasha's third wife.
sasha was married
for the first time
when he was 22 to masha.
and he had a child
with her, named daniel,
but it was just doomed
to fail.
she's
a so difficult person.
so they divorced.
then a few years later,
sasha met his next wife,
and they had their son.
in the beginning,
everything was okay,
but then things changed.
she said, "i don't like you.
it's not what i wanted."
i said, "okay, i'll find
someone who will like."
that someone was me.
yes.
actually, i knew you
before this time, already.
yeah, this is when we were
talking as friends.
okay, baby. careful.
the only reason we're meeting
with masha
is because it would be
a dream for daniel
to be able to come to america
and stay with us when he wants.
so, i think it's important
that she meets me
and sees that i'm normal,
because i want masha to be able
to trust me watching daniel.
it's freezing.
i still have to be as kind
as possible
and be fake because she is
the mother of sasha's son,
and i don't want
to mess anything up.
‐hm?
‐yeah, good.
well...
‐is that her?
‐yeah.
masha: hi. oh, hi.
so, em,
this is masha.
masha, emily.
hello.
so now you meet each other.
yeah.
so...
she ask why did you want
to meet her?
because i'm with you
and daniel is your son
and daniel is her son,
so it's important
that she knows me.
she ask why we don't ‐‐
she ask why ‐‐
if sasha wanted to stay
in russia,
of course i would stay.
she's just worried about
if daniel will come,
he will come to another family
and nobody care about him.
i can care for him.
i don't want her to think
that i want to, like,
be his mom,
but i will care for him
and make sure he's safe
and that he's okay.
so, um,
i'm feeling pretty tired.
sash, can you just ask her,
like, is it okay?
can daniel come
to america with us?
in the future, right?
in the future, da.
it's his choice
if he want to ‐‐
i'm not going to take him
if he doesn't want to go,
i'm not going to.
i don't know what exactly
will happen
but i'm not feeling good,
really,
and, um, i just...
i need to go outside
for a bit.
okay.
i will come soon.
mm‐hmm.
michael:
i just got off an overnight
flight to rio de janeiro.
thank you.
at this point,
the only thing i can think about
is juliana's visa approval.
if she gets denied,
i don't know what i will do.
michael: i'm meeting juliana
in rio de janeiro tomorrow
for her k‐1 visa interview.
the interviews all take place
in rio de janeiro
at the american consulate,
so she has to fly down
from her town of goiania,
which is a very poor,
remote section of brazil.
we are very much
hoping for good news,
but quite nervous that one
more thing is going to come up
or happen or continue this saga
that we've been on.
after we'd been together
for a few months,
juliana and i
had started working
on getting her visitor visa,
but she was
immediately shot down.
the people at the u. s. consulate
that she spoke with,
they really didn't give her
much of a chance.
you can't appeal
these decisions,
that's why i got
an immigration lawyer
to explain what had happened,
and she said,
the k‐1 visa was really
the only option to get her
to the united states.
i spoke with juliana
about the credit cards
and letting it go,
no big deal.
just excited that we're on the
cusp of her coming to america.
bye, howie.
♪♪ baila, baila ♪♪
michael: i just got off an
overnight flight from new york.
juliana arrived in rio
before i did,
and i'm on my way
to meet her at the hotel.
the excitement never changes,
and i can't wait to be
with her again.
oh, hey.
how's it going?
i'm fine. just kind of checking
in so you guys know
i landed safe and sound.
sarah: yeah.
my ex‐wife, sarah, we're both
sort of first call
if there's problems
or issues in life,
or if there's something
one or the other of us
needs to talk about.
you know, tomorrow we have
the interview,
and just hoping for the best.
so for juliana, i've tried
to just be open about the fact
that i'm still close
with my ex‐wife.
and really, if nothing else,
it's because we share
two children together.
it's a double‐edged sword.
i sometimes forget that juliana
doesn't like to talk about
any other women in my life.
well anyway, sarah,
i'm coming to the hotel.
let the kids know
i landed safe and sound.
okay, thanks, sarah.
bye.
thank you.
every time juliana and i see
each other, it's amazing.
it's very special.
i love everything about her,
really.
she's beautiful, she's funny,
she's thoughtful, she's smart.
despite such
different backgrounds,
we met at the right time
in each of our lives.
my name is juliana.
i'm from brazil,
and i'm 23 years old.
sorry i'm late.
never seen you so skinny.
i don't think you ate
since the last time
i saw you a month ago.
we're not eating
and drinking all the time.
you're a poor brazilian girl
when i'm not here with you.
then you're a rich american
when i am.
and tomorrow.
how are you feeling?
me too.
of course.
depends on what they say,
you know?
i've heard some people
get to go with the spouse.
sometimes they interview spouse
and fiancée separately.
yeah.
not that it would be a problem.
i mean, we know each other.
well, exactly.
but i'm worried.
it's exhausting.
i'm not going to
give up on you.
of course not, sweetie.
i promise. of course.
no matter what happens,
okay?
i love you.
no matter what happens,
even if things
don't go right tomorrow...
well, and we're going
to have as much fun
as we can together, okay?
it's so great to be back
with juliana, but at this point,
the only thing i can think about
is juliana's visa approval.
‐mnh‐mnh.
‐mnh‐mnh.
just such a roadblock for me
being able to move on
with so many other things
in my life, and for her, also.
if she gets denied,
i don't know what i will do.
there's going to be a girl
in the house now.
that means you're going
to have to start
putting down
the toilet seat.
robert: bryson is not used to
being around a strong woman,
but that's going to change
once anny gets here.
finally syngin landed.
he's here in the states.
‐ whoo!
‐ ohh!
i'm a simple guy from the bush.
now i'm planted here
in the middle
of a concrete jungle.
times square!
whoo!
robert: bryson,
anny gonna be here soon.
bryson, you know
what this say?
no.
huh?
anny. it says anny.
no, it don't.
i see a "n,"
but it don't say bingo.
today is the day
i been waiting for.
anny is flying from
the dominican republic
to orlando, florida,
so we can begin our 90 days.
you like it like this?
should i go like that?
yeah.
that's good for anny?
yeah.
alright, let me go
get the tape.
bryson talks to anny every day,
but since we only spent
one day together in person,
she never saw my son.
so i can't wait to see anny
and anny meet bryson
for the first time.
you excited to see anny, bryson?
yeah.
when you see anny,
what you gonna say to her?
why would you tell her
happy mother's day?
aww.
let's roll. whoo!
come on, come on, come on!
oh, sh**t.
but there's going to be a girl
in the house now.
so you know
what that mean, right?
that mean
you gonna have to start
putting down
the toilet seat.
yeah.
bryson is not used
to being around a strong woman,
but that's going to change
once anny gets here.
this feels like
my dream coming true,
and i'm just living it
in reality,
and i'm happy,
and my adrenaline is just going.
we're looking for anny.
you excited to see anny?
yeah.
yeah, me, too.
i'm looking forward
to just seeing my girl,
being around my girl every day
instead of being on the phone.
i'm supercharged. i'm pumped.
i'm excited,
and i can't wait
to see my girl.
‐dada! da‐do!
‐what?
bryson:
where is anny? where is anny?
where is anny?
where is anny? where is anny?
where is anny?
we've been waiting
for a while now,
and it's frustrating me
a little bit.
where is anny? where is ‐‐
put my hat
back on my head.
‐i want it.
‐put my hat back on my head.
robert:
no. you don't listen. give me
the hat. give me the hat.
give me the hat. nah.
alright, bryson.
bryson:
i want the hat.
i want the hat.
i want the hat.
no. chill out.
we'll take a nap.
no!
yep.
what the fudge?
bryson is starting
to fall apart.
i get it.
it's what little kids do,
but being a single dad,
it's a little tough.
you finished?
it's all over now?
i'm looking for anny.
who's that, bryson?
anny!
hi, baby!
my name is anny.
i am 30 years old
i am from dominican republic.
forever.
yes.
oh, yeah? you thought
he looked big or smaller?
robert:
to see bryson take to anny,
it was a beautiful thing.
i was excited, but bryson
was super‐duper excited,
and he was pumped.
he stole my moment.
bryson stole my moment.
i love bryson because
bryson is my new kid.
i don't have kids.
now i have bryson.
bryson: i got it.
yes, you got it.
it's been long, right?
six months?
yeah, six months.
tania:
finally, syngin landed.
he's here in the states,
and we are heading to the hotel
so we can get some rest
before i show him
around new york some
and be like, "voilà!
new york."
i just see city now.
wow.
that's crazy.
i have all these surprises
lined up,
like basically,
"thank you for moving
halfway around the world for me.
love you."
♪♪ welcome to new york ♪♪
i can grab that, though.
thank you.
oh, wow.
look how much effort
you've done. oh, baby.
aww, i tried.
wow.
woman:
what do you guys want to do?
i don't know.
see what happens.
see how much energy
the lady has.
syngin: right now, you know,
it's been a long flight
so i just want to have a shower
and have a bit of sexy time.
but it's tough, you know, with
the friends there right now.
see you ladies
a bit later?
kicking us out?
i have to kick you out,
unfortunately, no?
alright. alright.
‐we'll see you later, though.
‐see you in a few.
yeah, it's been about
six months, you know.
bye.
alright, i'll let you guys
know when we're ready
to hit the town. okay?
okay.
‐bye.
‐bye, guys.
tania told us one thing,
and that's do not disturb
for two hours.
yes.
that's it.
do not disturb for two hours,
and then
they're ready to go.
so, you ready to head on out
into the streets?
are you ready?
are you ready?
i'm so excited.
i don't know.
i am, like, over‐excited,
because...
so i don't know if you ‐‐
what is your plans
involving friends and family
all the time or?
someone ‐‐ hello?
hello?
thanks, baby.
‐time's up.
‐hey. fun police.
hey. we were just talking
about you, actually.
‐are we heading out?
‐already?
‐yeah.
‐alright. time to go.
do you want to take shots?
see times square?
yeah.
okay.
can you pour us
some shots, baby?
of course.
syngin was exactly what we
thought he was gonna be.
he's goofy. he's got
a dramatic personality,
so that's just how he is.
cheers. ching‐ching.
ching‐ching.
but tania, she's not that type
of person.
now, like,
he just got here,
so it's fresh,
and she's excited,
but i think that's going
to get on tania's nerves.
for sure, yeah.
so ‐‐ yes, for sure.
‐let's roll.
‐thank you.
‐let's roll.
whoo‐hoo!
♪♪ new york, new york ♪♪
new york, baby.
‐welcome.
‐wow.
this is so cool.
syngin:
it's my first time in the u. s.
i mostly saw usa on the tv
and on news, you know,
not always on good things
on the news.
but it always said
the land of opportunity
where all americans
are well off, you know?
and everybody's just doing great
and doing their thing
and happy and smiling.
but it just looks amazing.
like, i heard
the concrete jungle.
it literally is
a concrete jungle.
alright. at this blue thing,
we're putting on your blindfold.
is it blindfold time?
do you trust me?
yes.
is that good?
is that comfy?
this is such a crazy way
to see something
for your first time.
actually, hold on.
put my purse on you.
stay right there.
stay right there.
no, wait, wait.
turn around.
like, face that way,
so that way, that's ‐‐
yeah.
go right here.
perfect.
‐so frustrating not to see.
‐no, it's worth it!
ugh!
tania:
hold this in your hand.
here.
alright, baby,
open up your blindfold.
‐ whoo!
‐ oh
whoo!
i'm a simple guy from
a small town living in a bush.
now i'm planted here in the
middle of the concrete jungle.
so i was very overwhelmed.
my eyes and mind totally
just pop at this stage.
i am just flabbergasted.
‐look at your flag, baby.
‐south africa.
yes!
i've maybe seen maybe four
or five skyscrapers in my life.
now i'm standing here,
i'm like, "ahh!"
this is fantastic ‐‐ i couldn't
ask for anything more than today
or ‐‐ i told you in beginning,
even you are enough,
but all of this
is just extra for me.
aww, thanks.
yeah.
syngin: me and tania, we've only
been physically together
for a couple of months.
the rest,
she's been away from me.
this was a very short time.
it just feels like
i just need more time, man.
it's like, i wish it was
but it's not, you know, so...
are we meant for each other,
and ‐‐
you know, so
it's kind of stressful.
it's something that i have to
figure out in the next 90 days.
times square! whoo‐hoo!
michael:
we've been going through this
for almost two years,
and every step of the way,
something has come up.
so, what if mursel
gets mad at you
because you want
to buy beer?
i'm concerned for my daughter,
because in turkey,
they still do stone people,
and then also, they cut
their heads off.
will he pick up rocks
out in the parking lot
and start throwing them
at you?
ju‐jie, we got to get going.
good morning.
come on. big day.
today is an extremely
big day for us.
it's the interview.
wakey‐wakey.
i love you.
after tons of paperwork
and applications
and what have you,
mostly waiting around,
she talks to an agent
at the u. s. consulate,
and then there's a decision
about whether or not
she gets the visa.
visa goes through
as it should,
plans are juliana will be
on a flight right away
once she has it in hand, and
we'll start our life together.
i am quite nervous,
because she's been denied
a visitor visa twice.
and there's been a lot
of strange road bumps
with this process
that really haven't made
a whole lot of sense,
and it just feels like
there still could be
some reason they say no
or there's another problem
or this or that.
so we're nervous.
when juliana was denied for the
visitor visa, it was crushing,
more because of
how the consulate handled it
where it was, there didn't seem
to be much due process.
she's in a high‐risk category
in the eyes of immigration.
she's a young, single girl
from a very poor part of brazil.
she has a lot of stamps
in her passport,
and there is concern
that her plans for coming into
america
are to come here
and potentially be involved
in illicit activities.
you look great.
ready to rock and roll?
yeah? you'll be fine.
deep breaths.
everything's going to be fine
no matter what, huh?
no matter what,
i'm with you.
alright? and i love you.
taxi?
yeah.
i know.
they flat‐out asked,
"were you working as an escort
when you and michael met?"
this doesn't seem very ‐‐
very right.
i don't know what else to say.
i'm not sure why that had
to be part of this process.
i guess it's because
juliana and i met overseas
with friends
who were hosting parties.
and as a young model,
these girls get to travel.
and when they have time off,
they'll go party with people
and have a fun time,
just as any of us do.
but of course,
no, she's not a prost*tute.
it's kind of insulting.
how do you feel?
do you feel insulted?
it's ridiculous.
like, i'm surprised
they even can
ask questions like that.
i'm going to talk to my lawyer
about it, really.
it's very upsetting.
what are you going to say
when they say,
"have you been a prost*tute
in the last 10 years?"
you're going to say,
"well, yes"? i mean ‐‐
what's that make me,
a pimp or a john, you know?
never had to pay for sex.
never need to.
i'm not pimping you out.
you know?
i'm sorry i had to go
through that, really.
it's like it's intended
to grind you down
and just hope
you give up,
you know?
after the interview,
the one thing we need
is one police report.
that's what we were asked for,
and i hope it's that simple,
and juliana will
come to america.
but we've been
going through this
for almost two years,
and every step of the way,
much like this,
something has come up.
i've been extremely naive
with women my whole life,
and i've had as much heartache
and heartbreak as anybody.
but i don't feel like
i'm at this point
marrying somebody i don't know.
anna: yep. go to
the restaurant. okay.
the past couple of days
have been pretty intense.
mursel just got here and met
the boys for the first time.
it didn't go very well.
‐is grandma here?
‐i don't know.
well, she didn't text me
or anything.
today i'm taking mursel
to meet my mom,
and gino is coming along.
i'm hoping it goes better
than with the boys,
but i'm really worried
and nervous,
'cause my mom has some pretty
extreme views on turkish people.
i don't know what's going
to come out of her mouth.
she has no filter.
so i have no clue
how this meeting's going to go.
mom, what do you think grandma's
going to say
when she meets mursel?
it's good
that he doesn't understand.
he won't really know
what she's saying.
yeah, if she says
something offensive.
yeah, she's coming here.
you didn't know that?
mursel.
welcome, son.
welcome.
i'm so glad you are here.
what you wearing?
what is that?
sun visor.
"san vizor"?
yes.
oh, a sun visor.
oh, oh, oh.
okay. so keeps your neck
from getting sunburnt.
what?
okay?
i need that
to go here for food.
mom.
i'm charlene. i'm anna's mom,
and i'm excited to meet mursel.
the thing that
i'm really nervous about
is she's catholic,
and then mursel's muslim.
and so, i mean,
that's a big difference.
can i grab you something
to drink?
yeah, could you
grab me a water
and then also a beer
with the orange?
what, you're
getting a beer?
thank you.
i am, yeah.
mursel is a very
conservative muslim,
and he does follow,
like, no drinking, no smoking.
drinking is a huge part
of our culture.
i'm really worried about what
he's going to think about that.
you're not
drinking tonight?
can i get a beer?
you?
yeah.
it's good.
uh...
go ahead.
they're fat?
oh, yeah, i know.
i have a baby right here.
i'll have a water.
‐a water? okay.
‐yeah.
charlene: i'm concerned for
my daughter, because in turkey,
you've got to do
what the man says, period,
no questions.
you have to do it.
and they still do stone people.
and then also, they cut
their heads off.
so what if mursel
gets mad at you
because you want
to buy beer?
will he pick up rocks
out in the parking lot
and start throwing them
at you?
hey, gino, why don't you
go ahead and type for me,
"please don't stone anna."
promise?
mm‐hmm.
yeah.
yeah.
how are the kids
taking mursel being here?
well, joey said he isn't
going to put the effort
into getting to know mursel
or do things with him.
why?
i don't know.
he said that mursel is not part
of the family, and i don't know.
how does mursel's family
feel about your kids?
they don't know
about them.
why?
'cause mursel doesn't want
to tell his family.
how does mursel's family
feel about your kids?
they don't know
about them.
why?
'cause mursel doesn't want
to tell his family.
that's messed up.
it bothers me
that me and my brothers
have to be a secret
from mursel's family.
i don't know how much mursel's
really in love with my mom.
ask mursel, "why don't you
want your family
to know about
my grandchildren?"
i don't understand.
hinder. hinder.
so what's going to happen
if they find out?
they can expel you.
gino:
what does it mean, expelled?
expelled, like vanish.
from turkey?
from his family.
that sucks.
so what made him decide
to go ahead
and come here and get married,
knowing that you have the boys
that he can't talk about?
that's why
he's coming here.
he wanted me to go to turkey
and live with him in turkey,
and i said i wasn't
going to leave the boys.
so he had no other choice
but to come here.
okay, but he asked you
to leave your sons.
what kind of guy does that?
anna: i'm feeling frustrated,
because this is a topic
that we've gone back
and forth about,
but everything my mom
is saying is correct.
it's not right.
and having gino at the table
listening to this conversation
was pretty upsetting to me,
because he didn't know
about this.
and i don't want him to think
that i'm choosing a man
over them, because i'm not.
charlene:
what are you going to do?
what can i do about it?
i don't know.
if mursel's family ‐‐
no.
don't you think that he should
tell his family
about joey and gino
before you get married?
because you don't know
what's going to happen
on the other side.
are you going to get married,
and then they're going to say,
you need to go ahead
and leave the family or ‐‐
he's going to choose me
over his family.
if push comes to shove,
do you really believe that?
i mean, how long
have you known him,
actually spent time
with him?
i guess ‐‐ almost a month.
a month.
i believe him.
i believe he will.
charlene:
anna and mursel dropped
a bombshell on me tonight.
just boom.
and now all of this stuff has
come out that i didn't about.
anna said that mursel's chosen
anna over his family.
i don't believe that.
and to be honest with you,
i just don't see this working.
i'm glad that you go ahead
trusting mursel,
but to be honest with you,
i don't have that trust.
i don't know that
he's not going to go ahead
and get up
some morning and leave.
ask him, "is he really
going to choose my daughter
over his family?"
are you going to go back
if your family find out?
you need to lay down.
...i want a lot of sex tonight.
'cause i love you.
hell yeah.
robert:
i feel excited. i feel nervous.
knowing that anny has no family
out here in florida,
i have to give her all my time
and all my energy.
and me and bryson
is going to do that,
so it's our job
to make her happy.
here's home.
wow.
what a beautiful.
‐thank you, baby.
‐welcome home, baby.
i'm‐a put you
in your bed.
why?
'cause you was sleeping.
no.
geez, look at your legs.
before anny get
to the united states,
it's just me and bryson
sleeping in the bed.
all three of us is going to
have to sleep in one bed now.
i intend on getting bryson a bed
at some point in time
but not right now.
anny's just going
to have to deal
with bryson
sleeping in the middle.
my plan is to buy
a little bed or something,
and we put it over there.
get under your little cave.
go. boom.
hibernate.
anny: thank you for
the beautiful welcome.
i try.
to a new beginning.
yes.
baby, thank you for everything
you did today to me.
i appreciate it.
what happened, bryson?
let me check
on my little booger.
yeah, bryson?
how about i put "ninja turtles"
on for you,
and you watch it
by yourself?
yeah.
there you go.
"ninja turtles," alright?
bryson, give me a bounce.
give me fade away. a'ight?
you heard him.
it's like bryson ready
to take you away from me.
oh, lord.
what's up, bryson?
you need to lay down.
get out of my way.
oh, gosh.
bryson is not going to rest.
anny: bryson.
never stop.
too much for you?
anny, what you doing?
rowr!
bryson ain't
going to go to bed.
we haven't talked about
what would happen
if you just don't get
this visa at all.
it's a real possibility.
michael:
it's run through my head,
what if there's something
in her history
that doesn't allow her
to come to america?
you never know,
and you have to be careful
how much you trust anyone.
i'm returning to the u.s.
after juliana's interview,
really not knowing if she will
finally make it to america.
the one document in question
is basically a police
clearance document
saying she has a clean record.
it's very unsettling.
i feel i know
her history very well,
but, you know, the reality
of life is sometimes
you never know,
and you have to be careful
how much you trust anyone.
juliana was denied two visitor
visas to come to the u. s.
so i got to admit,
i think at best...
get the visa granted.
we haven't talked about
what would happen
if you just don't get
this visa at all.
you know?
i hate to think about it.
i don't want to be negative,
but...it's a real
possibility.
if the visa doesn't work,
then what?
it's almost like we've been
living in a fantasy land
in a way.
it's been so much fun,
traveling, being places,
hotel rooms, fancy stuff,
but we both want
to move on with life.
we really can't continue
like this.
i know i can't.
so if juliana can't come
to the united states,
there's going to be
a lot of soul searching
and a lot of very,
very difficult decisions
that i'm going to have to make.
i don't know.
i have to talk to my lawyer.
i have to see
what the options are.
i don't know if we can
start the process over.
i've got max and cece.
obviously, i got to
be for there for them.
if it's something where
you're just denied,
and there's nothing
we can do about it,
then we have to think about
what kind of life
would we make
for each other, you know?
michael:
it's run through my head, maybe
there is something i don't know.
what if there's something
in her history
that doesn't allow her
to come to america?
and if it's such
a shocking surprise,
well, of course it's going to
make me rethink a lot of things.
next time on "90 day fiancé"...
mike: despite spending
only two weeks together,
i feel like me and natalie
are meant to be.
hi, love.
but i haven't told natalie
the real truth,
and i hope she doesn't get too
mad or upset with me about it.
robert:
you like anything in here?
whether i'm having kids with you
or not, i'm having kids.
i will not, like,
be under pressures
and told when to have a child.
it's almost like
you wrote the story,
and i'm just a character
in it.
michael:
i've been on e‐mail, on texts,
on video calls with juliana
the whole time.
just anxious that we get
some information.
so, are you going to ever have
to choose between us and mursel?
i'm not going
to leave you guys.
i don't believe you
at all.
