- Daddy, I'm sad that you left
on my birthday, my real birthday.
- Now that Cory's gone doing "The Challenge," Ryder,
last night, she kind of cried a little bit.
I hate that Ryder misses her dad.
I hate that Ryder is so sad because her dad is gone.
- And you feel like you would be complete
if we were together?
- I think it'd be worth a shot.
- Does he see in his mind that if he--
you and him start working
on your friendship and your relationship,
that the gambling goes away?
No, that gambling is right [bleep] there
tapping on his shoulders, and what is that gonna happen
to you and Nova and Stella?
- Yeah, you're right.
- It would be devastating to a lot of people
if you weren't here.
When I found out
that Ryan had overdosed,
Bentley was priority,
but as a mom, you can't just get a Band-Aid.
- My dad's gonna be here in just a couple days.
- I feel better. - Oh, yeah. Look at those.
- Oh, I know. [laughter]
- My mom's about to come home tomorrow.
I don't really know how this is gonna play out.
'Cause I can't enable the bull[bleep] anymore.
- Is that Carly standing there? - Yeah.
- Holy crap!
- Unfortunately, my mom broke one of my boundaries
when she was hanging out with all of us
and she had a few drinks.
She said, you should have pulled me aside,
and I said, my thing is,
I shouldn't have to pull you aside,
especially in this environment.
- I'll deal with that in a day or two.
Go back to what is most important here,
another day with Carly.

Hi, ladies.
You're never going to believe this,
but Bentley is officially graduating from middle school.
And then obviously, he's off to high school in the fall.
I will say it's kind of bittersweet,
though, because Ryan might have to miss it.
Since his overdose, he has been in jail.
He does have a court date coming up.
Then we will know if he's going to be able to leave for rehab
or if he has to continue serving his full sentence
that could be up to a year.
So yeah, crazy things going on.

I just felt poorly about it.
- Yeah.
- I by no means agree with all the decisions he's made,
but I'm not just going to quit.
- Yeah.
- By being there for him, it shows him that, number one.
And number two, I think it shows Bentley that I'm still
recognizing the role that I play in the relationship
that Bentley and Ryan have.

It's just I feel like my mom-- I don't know.
She's had a bunch of job interviews.
Like, I thought she would have had a job by now.
- Where have they been staying?
I thought they were in your camper, no?
- For a few days, they stayed in the camper.
And then my mom was like, it's so uncomfortable.
I don't like being in there.
Like, I had to go sleep in the car
because I was so uncomfortable.
And I'm like, OK.
And then they start staying in a hotel.
And I was like, why would you stay at a hotel if I'm telling
you you guys can stay in the camper and you have,
like, a full private space?
- It's free. - Exactly.
It's like--she was like, that's not comfortable for me.
And I'm like, you know what? You can do what you want to do.
But when you run out of money,
it's not going to be my problem.
It's like, you guys will be living in that car again.
That's why I worry about them living this way
and then feeling depressed, feeling like
they're right back in that same, like, time
when they were addicts.
Toxic, but also, I can't make decisions for you.
I can't take care of you.
Like, they have to do that on their own.
They have to learn how to do it on their own.
So I just kind of have to give them that tough love
and be like, look, you got to figure it out.

Good job, Ry.

That's your workout for the day.
- I like to see them all playing.
It just makes me happy, even though they all
drive me crazy.
- How are you guys doing? You guys doing all right?
- We're good. I feel like Ace is growing up.
He's talking more. And he's a parrot.
He just repeats everything that Ryder says.
- It's killing me.
- So he calls Zach Zach
because Ryder calls Zach Zach.
- Right.
- And she looked at me, and she's talking about, like,
the family dynamics, the names, how Ryder addresses everybody.
In the beginning of this, we really did
want Ryder to understand as a baby, like, I'm Mom,
you're Dad.
We're her parents, but she has bonus parents.
And I do-- I feel like sometimes,
the question comes up.
For example, she called Zach Dad.
And she kind of, like, tensed up and wanted
to see how he responded.
And she wanted to see how I responded.
But I can tell that it's awkward for her
because she doesn't know if it's allowed.
We wanted to make sure that we're all on the same page.
- I want what's best for my kid.
And I want what's easiest for her.
If she feels comfortable calling you Dad,
then be my guest.
So at the end of the day, Ryder knows
who her biological father is, me, right?
I don't need her to prove that by not calling--by calling
you Zach over and over.
If she feels comfortable calling you Dad,
I'm OK with that.
The last thing I want is for her to be stressed out.
I think the best move is for me to sit Ryder down one on one.
I'm just going to talk to her about it.
- I do think because Ryder is getting older
and she is figuring out more about her family dynamic,
that these conversations are going to come up.
And I just want to make sure that we're
all comfortable to have them with each other.
- These are co-parent check-ins.
These are talks that we're going to have to have.

How are you?
- I'm doing pretty good. How about you?
- I'm good. I'm here with my mom.

I saw that he was on an app called Florida Lottery.
If he has that on his phone, I don't think
that's a good sign.
- No, I agree.
That would be of concern.
- I didn't say anything because I wasn't
sure how to bring it up.
I didn't want to accuse him of something that I don't
really know what's going on.
- If you're being honest, like, it's not
necessarily accusing anything.
It's just saying, you sent me this picture.
I see this.
This is concerning.
You know what I mean? - Mm-hmm.
- Because he's in a way, you know, offering up
that information, whether, you know,
intentionally or unintentionally.
It's absolutely appropriate to say something.
I would start with just saying, you know,
I'm just trying to be somebody that cares about you
and loves you.
And I'm seeing some things that are concerning.
- Like, what's the next step?
Like, if he did relapse, like, what do we do?
- Well, you know, there's been many recommendations on my end
and our end as far as continued care,
whether that be support groups, therapy.
You know, it screams to me if somebody is not
able to participate in those recommendations,
that there's a need for potentially
a higher level of care.
So perhaps, if he is open to this, reengaging
in residential treatment...
- I agree. - Or something like that.
Because he's proving that he needs that higher
level of care, and structure, and accountability,
and support.
- OK.
Well, thank you.
I appreciate you taking your time to talk to me.

- Today is Ryan's court date.
We're going to find out if he's going to go to rehab
or continue serving his sentence.
Obviously, I don't agree with the things that Ryan did,
and he needs to pay the consequences.
But I am trying to support him as, you know, Bentley's dad
and as a friend too.
So we will see what happens.
I'll keep y'all updated.
- I don't know what's going to happen today,
but I appreciate you coming in.
- Yeah.
- Being support for us, I know Ryan appreciates it too.
So hopefully, it'll be something we can
move forward and be positive.
- Yeah. Hopefully.
- We'll see.
- Going into the court hearing, I'm anxious.
It's kind of intimidating to see him
in the jumpsuit and handcuffs.
But he looks like Ryan.
And I haven't really seen him look like Ryan in a long time.
The DA asked Ryan, what's different this time?
Because you've had this chance before.
He says the difference is that I'm tired of living like this.
[tense music]
[doorbell rings]
Hi. - Hey.
I made it. Your dog's been swimming.
- I know. - [laughs]
- So I heard you were going to court.
How did that go? - Good.
- Basically, his attorney was requesting for him
to be furloughed, court ordered in Ryan's situation,
to go to an inpatient rehab.
And this particular program has an injection
that's called Vivitrol.
So if you drink or use opiates like--or heroin on it,
it makes you, like, deathly ill.
- Does he have to do that?
- I think he wants to.
It's got very high success rates so far.
So he'll be released into rehab in a couple of weeks.
If he doesn't stay in the rehab or tries to leave
or if he doesn't abide by every single thing, textbook, bang,
bang, bang, bang, he would be sent back to jail
and resentenced for all of the three charges,
harassment, possession of a controlled substance,
and DUI, all of them to the highest level.
- Got you.
- If you add those up, it would be years,
which I'm not mad about.
- Right. - I mean, it sucks.
And he's miserable in there.
But, bro, at some point, you got to pay the price
for the choices you've made.
- Right.
- He's never had real consequences for anything,
you know?
- So is he passing the drug screens in jail?
- Yeah, every one of them.
I think Ryan and Bentley communicate
more since he's been in jail.
- I don't doubt that.
- Isn't that crazy, though?
- Well, if he's not on drugs, it makes perfect sense.
- Yeah.
I was just thinking from a standpoint of--
- That it has to be that way? - Yeah.
You can be hopeful without expecting anything,
which is the seat I'm sitting in.
Like, of course, I'm sad for Bentley
and that Ryan won't be at his eighth grade graduation.
But at least, he's alive.
- All we want is the best for Ryan
because that means it's the best for Bentley.
- Yes. Facts.
- His recovery is about Bentley.
Of course, it's about him.
But for us, it means a better experience for Bentley,
a better life for Bentley, a better relationship
with Bentley and his father.
- Yeah.
- And it doesn't matter what you do in your life.
That's still Bentley's dad.
And if things go bad for him, it's still Bentley's life.
- Yeah. - You know.
- Addiction's gnarly.
- Yes, it is.
- I really don't know what's next for Ryan and Bentley.
I think that that's up to Ryan.
Bentley has accepted how things have been
and how things kind of are.
But I also know that Ryan is his dad.
And there's a space that will always
be there for him to fill if he chooses to do so.
But I hope that Bentley is able to be a child
and Ryan will show up as the adult.
- We have had such a great visit with Carly.
Literally, the days have been flying by.

- What about you, Dad?
- Well, I hope you get everything all figured out.
- I'm sure I will.
- So you're not living in the same cycle of being unhappy.
Living in a hotel, doesn't that just
feel like you-- just what it felt
like before you went to rehab?
I feel like that can't be a good feeling.
- Yeah, but I mean, I feel like being with family
would feel way more--
way better than being somewhere with strangers, you know?
- I feel uncomfortable everywhere I'm at.
Literally, it's sad.

I didn't know she went.
- She just started getting-- like, I don't know.
Her anxiety gets the best of her sometimes,
so she had to go step away.
- I'm just so worried.
I just want you to be all right.
Like, you're my child or something.
I'm worried about you. - Quit being like that, please.
Because I'm not going to go-- - I just want you to be OK.
- I'm going to be OK.
I'm not going to go out and relapse or nothing like that.
I hate that, like, you, like, feel like you need to fix
it because I made the mistake.
I have to fix it.
I'm doing good now.
- You're not doing good right now yet.
I want everyone to be great.
I wish I could just, like, snap my fingers
and just make it all happen.
- But I mean, I took the first step in, like,
the right direction.
- I'm proud of you. I'm happy for you.
I'm just--I think it's just all this stuff
is just taking a toll on me.
I feel like all the people I loved around me
are having these issues that--imagine
how frustrating that is that you want to fix stuff
and you want to help, but you can't fix that.
- I love you, Jade.
- I love you too.
I'm just--I'm just a nervous wreck, and I'm anxious.
My parents are both home.
Since I was 17, I wanted this for them.
I wanted a sober life.
But they're really not in the spot
that I was hoping that they would be in.
I'm hoping they can get out of this rut that they're in.
But ultimately, I can't really control them.
I played Mom for so long.
I have to stop doing that because if I want
a mom and a dad, I have to let them stand up
and be Mom and Dad.
And I have to put boundaries when it comes to them putting
their problems on my plate.
I still have my own [bleep] going on.
I'm not going to lose hope on them
or lose hope in their sobriety.
I'm just hoping that they can really just figure it out.

- I am about to talk to Devoin about the screenshot
and the whole Florida Lottery app.
I'm a little nervous. I'm a little scared.
I don't know how this conversation is going to go,
so let's just see what happens.
I'll keep you girls updated.

- Hello, hello, hello, hello.
- Hey, what's up? - What's up?
What's going on?
- So Nova's on a field trip, and she texted me.
She was like, I'm having the best time.
- Yeah?
- But nothing.
I've just been-- I don't know, a little,
like, I want to say worried or concerned.
- Concerned. Why?
- You sent me this.
And then look on the top left.
I've seen that.
What is that?
Are you playing the lottery?
- I play here and there, the Powerball.
- Come on. - Why not?
- You're not supposed to.
- The Powerball is like $500 million,
$2 if your [bleep] hit.
- Isn't that considered--
- It's considered a relapse.
- Are you open with your sponsor
about you playing the lottery?
- No. Of course not.
But I'm good.
Like, concerned would be if I took a trip to Las Vegas
or some [bleep] like that.
- I don't think you're OK.
You could put this front up and say that you're fine.
But I know you're not fine.
- I mean, of course, I'm not where I want to be.
- You have bad urges still, or like, what?
- I mean, that's an ongoing thing.
That never really stops, you know?
It's a constant battle.
But at the end of the day, like, it's not breaking me
to where I want to go, and like,
literally stand in front of a casino.
- Which is good to hear.
- But therapy is something I should look into, for sure.
- Because the last thing I want is for something,
you know, bad to happen and you end up in a place
of, like, no return.
You don't want that for Nova.
- That's not a possibility.
- No.
- It's not even an option.
- No. Let me get your phone.
Unlock it. I'm deleting the app.
You don't need it.
You're better than this.
What are you doing?
- It's deleted. - No, I want to delete it.
- It's deleted.
- It is deleted.
It's not even on there.
- I just deleted it.
Yeah.
- I spoke to Nick because I was concerned.
Nick thinks that you probably need to go back
or to go to another place.
- To another rehab center? No.
I'm not in an addict mode.
Like, the help you're trying to throw me
is, like, go back to rehab.
That's not--rehab ain't going to help what I got going on.
Appreciate the concern, though.
- To know that Devoin is now gambling again is concerning.
I'm worried.
I'm stressed.
He made it seem like it was not a big deal,
but that was a relapse.
He [bleep] up.
If Devoin ends up at the casinos again,
I would have to tell him it's either gambling or Nova.
You can't have both.
And I will leave it up for him to decide.
But I know he's trying to get the gambling under control.
And I will continue to be a cheerleader with a little sign
saying, you can do this.
Keep going.
But I can't walk him to the finish line.

- Hi, baby.
I love you.
- Mom, it's OK.
- I'm just emotional, you know?
It's hard to say goodbye.
- Dawn was saying that this is the most, like, one-on-one
time you guys have ever had.
- Yeah. - It is.
That's what I told Tyler. - Yeah, I noticed that.
- It was nice.
- That was fantastic just watching you guys
laugh, and cuddle, and hug.
And the way she looks at you too and looks at Ty--
- Oh, yeah.
She's always had an obsession with Ty
ever since she was wee big, man.
- Yeah.
- It's awesome seeing all of my girls together.
There was one point where when we were saying goodbye,
Nova just looks like Carly.
And she's like, why can't you spend the night at my house?
And Carly looked at her, and she goes, well, one day,
I just might be spending the night at your house.
And Nova said, really?
She was like, yeah.
Then when I said goodbye to her too,
I said, I love you so much.
I said, I really hope that you know that.
And she's like, I love you too. And I do.
I really do.
- She knows.
- Carly, I just want you to know that you are the biggest
blessing in my life, somebody who has pushed me
to grow in so many great ways.
You were meant to come into the world to literally create
change, to teach me things, to teach your parents things,
to teach my other family members things.
I am so proud to watch you grow up.
I love learning about your passions and stuff
and just seeing how great of a person you are.
I love being able to witness your goofy and silly sides
because it reminds me so much of Ty.
And to see that you have a little bit
of our personalities is something
that's truly amazing.
I just want you to know that you are loved.
If you weren't loved, I never would have made the decision
that I made for you.
Because I wanted to be selfish and not make it sometimes.
And I know it would have been selfish to keep
you in that chaos.
And literally, it's all about love.
Like, I don't ever want you to think that you weren't loved
or that we didn't want you.
