- Anybody who's an asshole.
- Maci and I had this crazy idea
to have a Teen Mom family reunion.
These girls are either gonna walk in and be happy...
- Don't worry, the party is here.
- Or they're gonna walk in, and it's gonna be a [bleep] show.
Are we not together?
- We're married. - Wait, hold on. Hold on.
We have an announcement.
There's some things that we need to work on as a group.
So we brought in a life coach.

We are gonna do an icebreaker called scream therapy.

- I don't know.
And I've been chasing it my whole life.

And for that, I'm sorry.

Yeah, you bitches fake as [bleep].

Great job with taking accountability.

on doing the right thing like you did, and then--
- Not being reactive. - Come on.
And then managing your emotions all the way through.
- I got that. - All the way through.
- Yeah.
- Because you're a bigger woman and because you're--
- Jade, I'm just say this. Right now,
she looks unbothered, and you look bothered.
- You look bothered. Take it and go.
- You need to let it go. It's more of Jade and Ashley.
I'm Jade's friend. My loyalty lies with Jade.
- You have to bring it down a notch.
- Calm down, Jade.
- You have to bring it down a notch.
- No, I said, "I'm not doing the internet [bleep]."
I said, "When I see you in person,
I will see you in person."
Let's keep that same energy, then.
When I call you out-- - But she didn't keep it--
- When I call you out, bring it to me!
- She didn't do it. - Ashley, no.
- What is the argument? I don't know.
- You [bleep] stupid skinny bitch.
- Dumb bitch.
- Please talk to me, nice bitch.
- You don't want that smoke?
I mean, if the bitch wanted to swing,
the bitch would've swung. She just wanted a moment.
And I'm thinking, "What the [bleep] is your problem?"
- Yeah. Tell that bitch to work on her [bleep] skills.
- Work on her self-confidence,
and maybe she wouldn't attack other women for doing this.
- Do I wish I would've never said
"[bleep] the fakeness"? Yeah.
'Cause then it probably would've never started
this whole situation.
- Yeah, well, tell that bitch to come out here
so I can beat her ass
and teach her a lesson like her mama should.
- Oh, not the moms.
- You're easily triggered, right?
- I'm trying. - I know.
- That's why I said sorry. Like, I would never sorry
if I felt like I didn't mean that [bleep].
- Hey, I know. - You got it.
But listen, you know that, right?
You notice your growth, right?
So who else needs to know it but yourself?
So when you get into that space where you feel triggered,
and you're about to blow, I want you to tell yourself
"I work too damn hard." What is your affirmation?
- I work too damn hard. - Say it louder.
- I work too damn hard. - Okay?
- I think that Coach B is really helping me to be calm.
And I'm happy that she's here to help us.

Ashley's apology was condescending, and it was fake.

Probably not.
It had to get out because everyone knows

has communication issues,
trust issues, or just control issues in general.
Okay. I have an activity for you.
I'm gonna take the moms in the first heat,

The key is that the person in the front will have the oar,
but they'll be blindfolded.
- Whoo! - [bleep]
- Blindfolded in that musty, dusty, crusty water?
Mm-mm. Mm-mm, nope.
- So the person in the back will have to tell them
which side to row on and where they're supposed to be going.
All right. Good communication.
- Why?
- To win, the team has to do this whole race
and not flip over.
And no peeking.
- Okay.
- Our winners get a private lunch on the island.

and being bold enough to be vulnerable,
not just with me, but to trust one another.
'Cause that's what it's about.
And you know, you wanna go fast, go alone.
You wanna go far, go as a team.
And as long as we can stay a team here--
doesn't mean we're gonna agree--
as long as we can stay a team here, we can go very, very far.
- We did a good job, guys. - Good job, sis.
- That was easy. - Go, team, go.

- When Ashley started to speak to me
about being that little girl kind of like Leah,
that's what really got me, honestly,
and to know that if I just keep trying that,
that would mean so much
because it would've meant so much to her.
So I know that I'm doing the right thing now.

You guys are funny. Hi. You miss me?
both: Yes.

I understand why she didn't,
but she deserved it 'cause she's the winner.

he said "We're second at least"
before they tipped over.
- Uh-huh. - And I was like, "[bleep].
"I don't how further we got,

You're a trooper. - And I'm in pretty good shape.
My arms are noodles.
Like, they are spaghetti noodles for sure.

- Yes. Victory, baby.
How have you guys been liking it so far?
- I feel like last night went really well.
- Mm-hmm.
- We had to go around and say, like, "I am"
and then something positive about ourselves.
But I was like, "I'm a good mom,"
and everyone stood up except for Amber.
- Oh, no. both: Yeah.
- It's really difficult for me.
When Amber says that, it's like, part of me
knows where she's coming from and why she's saying it
because she's made so many mistakes along the way.
But on the other hand, I know a lot of those mistakes--
there's a reason for them.
It's like, you know, mental illness and this and that.
- Last night, she definitely opened up,
and I think she's trying.
She said a lot of things that kind of broke my heart.
Are you open to letting Leah and Amber do therapy together?
Or is it just Leah doesn't?
- I mean, I wanna protect Leah,
and then I wanna, you know,
help the relationship, you know, with, you know.
She's like--you know, she was really against it and stuff..
I think the biggest thing is like, a lot of lost trust.
- Mm-hmm.
- I know I missed some very important times in your life.
I am so sorry.
- Sounds like she's apologizing to you.
- But I couldn't tell if, like, the crying
or anything of that was fake.
So I really don't know what to think of it.
- And I can't even begin to tell you how she feels.
- Yep.
- And I know there's like, a-- she's like, no, you know, no.
You know, and she's saying-- - She is being protective.
- And I, you know--I said to Leah, like, "You know,
"no matter how you feel with, you know, your mom,
"you still have a brother.
"And I don't want James to grow up
not knowing who you are."
- Right. - Yeah.
- "I know you don't wanna like, be around your mom
"at this point in time,
but you know, you gotta take-- you cannot lose James either."
- Right. She's a big sister.
- So I don't know if there's recommendation.
I don't know if you had that issue with Bentley.
- I think you need to make this decision for Leah and have
Leah and Amber do therapy sessions together.
- Yeah. When Bentley started going,
the counselor was very much like,
"No, we are not going to bring them both together right now."
I would encourage that but still, let Leah know
that her boundaries aren't gonna get crossed.
- Yeah.
- And it's hard 'cause I think I've heard all of us say, like,
"you never know if you're doing the right thing."
- There's no right or wrong answer.
- I just always tell Bentley-- I'm like, "Son, sometimes,
"as much as I wanna make you happy,
keeping you protected is actually my number one job."
- Yeah.
- Leah wants this, Amber wants this.
I can't force Leah to go here
because I feel like that's the wrong thing to do.
But I will keep an open mind if Amber keeps trying.
- Well, they're both cute. Oh, my goodness.
- Yeah. I know. I should have sold my sperm.
- You can still do that if you want.
- You guys ready to head back? - I am.
- Tell these losers what a great time we had.
- Yeah. Wonderful.
Maybe they'll try harder next time.
- I think Maci tried the hardest.
- I think I did too. - [laughs]

- I think now that the mixer is over and done with

it's been a little bit more chill.
I still feel there's a little bit of tension.
It was my fault.
And I just wanna make it better.
- What's going down?
- I don't know how Ashley's feeling.
Like, there's just more [bleep] to be settled
before we can even continue this family vacation.
- So, hopefully, the night goes well.

I just hope everybody can just get along

We know what our issues are, but it's like,

At this point, I don't even know

Girl, you look so tan and beautiful.
- Really? I got burned.
That's why.
With me and Ashley, there was this big elephant in the room,
and it led to a blowup.
So I'm looking at her, and she's looking at me.
And I'm thinking, like, act, let's act right
because I'm not trying to fight.
But I also do wanna confront issues.
So I'm thinking, like, "Oh, [bleep]."
- I just want everything to be okay between you guys,
all of us, so that there's no, like--
I don't want you guys to think
just because I said "[bleep] the fakeness"
that I wanted to start something between you guys.
- And I hear my friend's voice talking to Ashley.
I'm like, [bleep], put my hair up,
put my good shoes on.
And I'm standing there, like, in the back,
like, "Let this mother[bleep]. Let something happen."
- Like, I can argue with people
and like, get [bleep] off my chest
and be like, "All right." - Done.
- "I feel better. Done."
I feel like I don't really hold grudges like that.
- Then maybe you had to get it out.
Like, at the end of the day, we hadn't seen each other.
- I felt like I had to get that out.
But then I felt bad about, like,
"Damn, I ruined everyone's time."
I ruined the whole night,
and I gotta go home feeling like, damn.
Like everybody the next day,
I was like, "Does everyone hate me?"
- I can be two different people.
I can love someone and be the most loyal person
and right for someone, or I can be a bitch.
I can be mean. And I don't think it's fake.
I think because we don't have relationship,
you guys see more one side of me.
- I think that you weren't necessarily
being fully accountable
or maybe just downplaying some stuff to us.
- Right.
- That's what was making me upset,
is that I wanted you to be like,
"Yeah, I said this. I said that,"
and be like, "I said it maliciously
because I was trying to hurt you"
because you're pissed off.
- You feel like I was downplaying you?
- Yes. Like, downplaying the situation
and were trying to make me feel like I was a little crazy.
And I'm thinking like, "No, I know in my head
[bleep] that happened on my end."
- Right. - I've got that from Sean.
I got that from my mom, people in my family.
And like, as soon--that triggered me, the manipulation
and feeling like someone's downplaying how I felt.
- Yeah. - And it's not funny.
Like, I have an issue with that.
And if that happens, like, I'm sorry for that.
- I think Ashley's apology was genuine and sincere.
I think she seemed very like, soft-spoken.
So I think she was genuinely trying to like, be nice.
It was good that we could all talk
and come at each other like women.
I wish we could have done this the first time around,
but it's like, we've all learned.
- My thought with Jade is that she needed her moment,
and I think she's got it.
- Well, thank you, guys. - Yes.
- I love you so much. - I love you too.
- The rest of the trip shall be this vibe.
She gave some insight for me to understand
why she acted the way she acted.
And I think that there's a mutual respect
in place moving forward.
- All great? - Yeah.
It was good talking to you.
- Thank you for being a mediator.
- Yeah. - Shall we hug it out?
- Yes. I respect you.
- I respect you. We'll be good.
- I'm so grateful that I was there to witness,
you know, Ashley and Jade for figuring things out
so we could actually enjoy this family vacation.
