since we got back from

And now it's even worse.
Since [bleep] stupid-ass Sky
brought up that stupid-ass
Sophia the Body incident,
it's kinda puttin' a strain
on our relationship right now.

My heart was broken and I'm not
about to be having to go

other bitches, he need to go

>> We both know nothing
happened with me and Sophia
the Body.
I did nothing with Sophia
the Body.
She got a little flirty,
and I shut that [bleep] down.
Sky was just tryin' to get
the attention off the bull
[bleep] that happened between
her and O [bleep].
That's all that [bleep]
was about.
After I cheated on Dutchess,
I don't really think I really
regained her trust and it gets
kind of frustrating because
you're guilty until proven
innocent.
It's kinda [bleep] up.
>> I guess.
DUTCHESS: I believe Ceaser.
I feel like he's sincere.
Of course, Cease ain't do
nothing with that slutbag.
My [bleep] has a certain level
that he won't [bleep] with
and that bitch is definitely
below the poverty line.
I shouldn't have been insecure
about that.
He's gonna be my husband.
I have to trust him.

I don't know.

I lost the baby that me and
Maxwell were planning on having.

or nothing, but I just let her
in on something that's like
real serious and I feel like
she let me in, too.

out to me and she says that
she wants to come to the shop
and talk to me.
After the tumultuous
relationship we had in the past
year, me and Kathy are finally
learning how to have a peaceful
co-existence.
The way things are going right
now, I don't feel like me and
Kathy will ever have any more
drama.
>> So, what's up?
Like how've you been?
How's your sobriety?
>> Great. Great. Good.
Everything's good with that.
>> I found out through someone
else about this vasectomy.
>> Yeah, it was kinda like I was
just gonna surprise it on
everybody.
>> Oh, were you?
Can you stop surprising me?
Why are you doing this?
Why are you getting a vasectomy?
>> Because they're my balls.
I can do with them what
I please.
>> I have my concerns.
I'm very against this vasectomy.
>> Uh...what?
This is the last thing that
I would expect for Kathy to say.
This is the same woman who was
praying to God and was crying
because I got Anya pregnant.
>> I thought you learned
the first time, the second time.
This is already the third time.
How you commit the same mistake
three times now?
I do not wanna be [bleep]
O [bleep] baby mama for
the [bleep] rest of my life.
>> I thought you would have been
pro-vasectomy.
I don't think you should be too
concerned about me getting
a vasectomy.
I mean like it's just a little
ball snip.
It's the least invasive
procedure and after that,
I won't be able to have any
more children.
>> My concern is that if you get
this vasectomy, you're gonna
be reckless.
Right now you're sober
and you're clean.
But when you have a drink
and you start partying
and you [bleep] and you see all
these bitches with fat asses--
>> So, you're saying that I am
gonna downfall because I get
a vasectomy.
>> Let's be real.
Let's be honest.
>> I hear the words that are
coming out of your mouth, but
I just can't comprehend what
you're saying because it just
sounds like dumb [bleep] to me.
Just because I get a vasectomy
doesn't mean that I'm gonna go
around just shakin' my [bleep]
for dollars.
>> But you have been.
>> No, I haven't.
>> You know you cannot lie
to me.
You know I'm psychic.
>> Hm?
>> I don't want you thinking
because you cannot get this
woman pregnant that it's okay
for you to go [bleep] her.
>> Yeah, I understand you.
>> I just don't want you to be
reckless with your [bleep],
y'all.
There's other things other than
children that you have to watch
out for.
>> Yeah, I know.
>> And there's things that are
very real like STDs...
>> Mm-hm.
>> ...and HIV.
>> Yeah.
>> I do not wanna plan your
funeral.
Like I'm sorry, even though
that's not my [bleep] concern
anymore, even though that's not
my [bleep], I do care about it.
>> I know.
>> Okay, I don't want that
[bleep] to fall off.
I don't want that [bleep]
to be the death of you.
>> O'S T: A part of me believes
that Kathy is so upset about me
getting this vasectomy
is because she does have hope
that I will go back to her and
that she's gonna have another
child from me.
>> Let me tell you something.
Ever since I've been in your
life, I've been looking out for
you whether you wanna see it
or not.
I've been always looking out
for you.
I've always watched over you
and I always made sure you
were good.
>> You don't have to worry
about that.
It's not your job to.
>> I have a gift for you.
It's a black tourmaline,
a protection stone.
Okay, this is your protection
from negative energy.
I put my energy in it, okay,
I put my love.
>> And you put your sage.
>> No, I didn't do no sage.
I didn't do sage.
I asked my spirit, my guide,
my angels to look out for you.
>> If I feel one ounce of hate,
I'ma tell you, I'ma kick this,
I'ma punch this [bleep] like
a football.
>> [laughing] No.
>> Ah!
>> BOTH: [laughing]
>> ♪
>> CEASER: It's kinda cold,
isn't it.
>> Cold ain't the word.
>> [knocking on door]
>> [siren blips]
>> Well...
What's good? Come in.
>> DUTCHESS: Today, we're going
to see Oba.
Oba is a spiritual advisor.
He was referred to me by
a friend.
I'm hoping that maybe he can
give us a little bit of guidance
to understand the things that
we could strengthen in order
to make our relationship work.
>> Yeah.
So what brings you here today?
>> We came in to just get some
insight on this whole wedding
stuff.
>> All right, so this is what's
gonna happen.
The spirits, more than likely,
they coincide.
You understand what I'm saying?
>> I don't understand why
we need a spiritual advisor.
This is a crock of bull [bleep],
if you ask me.
Some feminist bull [bleep]
that Beyoncé made up to tell
all these [bleep] that y'all
need counselling and get your
man in counselling.
She probably made a song
about it.
>> Relax.
No [bleep] with me.
[speaking non-English]
>> This is not the type of guy
you wanna play with.
Your hair might come up short.
You might lose a limb.
>> [speaking non-English]
>> CEASER: You might lose your
mother [bleep] nose, you play
with this guy wrong.
So, I'm gonna be very, very
respectful 'cause he might go
from my spiritual advisor
to my spiritual assassin.
>> [speaking non-English]
The spirits.
They're talking about...
What do you think it is?
>> Cease asked for a prenup.
That made me feel like I've been
there for you.
Why would that have to be
even a question?
To me, a prenup is saying one
day y'all gonna divorce each
other and what y'all gonna do
with y'all [bleep]?
I wasn't even thinking like that
'cause I'm thinking we're gonna
be together forever type
[bleep].
>> What do you say?
>> I don't know.
>> So when y'all trying to
get married?
>> What are you lookin'
at me for?
I've done my part already.
I gave her the ring.
>> We ain't in a rush.
We just wanna get some stuff
together before we do that.
>> Are y'all sure y'all wanna
get married or is it just
it's something to do?
What is it that's stopping y'all
from getting married?
>> Like I know we ain't ready to
get married right right now.
And certain things we've gotta
work on to get to that point.
>> Where do you see yourself
in ten years?
>> That's the problem.
Listen, I love Dutchess,
and this is the woman I'm gonna
marry one day.
But the truth of the matter is
I don't wanna move to
North Carolina.
Like how you wanna go back to
North Carolina and take it over
and that's your hometown.
That's the same thing I feel--
like I have a real opportunity
to really put a grasp on
something that's never been
done.
I still have a dream.
I wanna be a mogul in Harlem.
I wanna build my empire in
this city.
Just because I passed on
Ink 124 doesn't mean I ain't
gonna [bleep] take over
this city.
>> I don't see a problem with us
making sacrifices for each
other.
That's what getting married
is about.
>> I just can't leave
just right now.
>> I'm a little bit nervous.
I'm not gonna lie.
>> Could you just imagine if
I stuck a needle in your
scrotum right now?
If you are not ready,
then don't do it.
>> ♪
>> I don't see a problem with us

>> I'm hurt.
Cease sold me a dream.
That's what a lot of the [bleep]
at Black Ink do--sell bitches
dreams.
Cease makes me think for a
moment that he really loves me
and it's what we want and all
of this us against the world.
But then he goes back to his
selfish ways and it's just
about him.
>> I feel like you would
understand that because you went
through the same.
>> It's hard to have dreams
when my dreams are controlled.
It's hard to have dreams when
they're controlled by people,
that you can't even dream
freely.
It's just another mother [bleep]
confirmation for me to see
that apparently he don't love me
the way he say he love me.
Those are just words.

O'S T: It's time for me to
finally get my vasectomy done.
And I'm ready.
It's time for me to finally
get that snippy snip.
>> SKY: Are you nervous?
>> Nah.
There's nothing to be scared of.
The worst thing that can happen
happened already--pregnancy
scare.
>> SKY: [laughing]

O'S T: After this pregnancy
scare, I can't put this off
no more.

You're doing the right thing.
We're gonna give you sedation,
so you won't feel it.
You'll be feeling fantastic.
Could you just imagine if I
stuck a needle in your scrotum?
>> I'm not really afraid of him
doing anything too crazy with
my balls, but let's say he does
happen to sneeze and winds up
cutting off one ball, then I'm
Lance Armstrong out this bitch.
I mean like that's pretty scary.
>> You're nervous, right?
>> Yeah.
>> You need to think about it.
I'm gonna come back in five
minutes.
>> Yeah, give me five minutes.
>> Don't be nervous.

But I have to do it.
I always think about like
my children and how my reckless
decisions can affect them.
It's hard enough for me to
take care of the children that
I have.
I have to go through hell
and high water to do for them
and I can't afford to bring
another child into this kind
of situation and this kind of
environment.
>> Are you set for this?
Are you sure you wanna do this?
If you are not ready,
don't do it.

this is something that's very
permanent.
