(OFF) DANIELLE (VOICEOVER): Previously
on Basketball Wives Orlando--
MEHGAN: Mulan and Nique, y'all called
Morgan and Dani bullies.
- You're a mean girl.
You're a bully.
[yelling]
- Nikki started all of that.
She told Morgan that we said she was a mean girl.
- Mulan called y'all mean girls the whole time.
Like, you're the meanest one of them all.
She sent me a picture of the back of me.
It's really [bleep] up of her because I'm very,
like, self-conscious of my body. (VOICE BREAKING) And I don't--
(OFF DANIELLE): No, don't cry, Nikki.
- I get a picture.
Like, ain't this your baby daddy with Mackenzie in Tulum?
She's going around saying they in love.
You're not gonna bully me up out of a man's life
I've been with for eight years. (ON) MACKENZIE: I don't want to.
- Don't cry, baby.
[theme music]
(SINGING) These haters, they know about me.
I'm gonna spy on every one I can't see.
I'm about number one of three.
- Are you excited to get in the pool?
Go ahead. Jump, Kari.
- Jump.
DANIELLE: Kari, catch.
Ooh!
- This is the best day of my life.
(SINGING) Keep it lit while I spend a couple racks,
hit a lick.
- How are the numbers on TikTok?
What are we doing there?
- TikTok is legit.
We're just about at 20,000 followers.
- Oh, that's amazing.
I know that we need, like, a few more interns.
Have y'all found anybody?
- So we picked about eight people.
Right now, we're going to start screening.
- OK well, I'll follow up with you
guys in, like, a couple of days to see
where we are with everything. (OFF) JOSH: All right.
MEHGAN: OK bye, y'all.
Hi babe.
- What you doing, babe?
I got you lunch and some flowers.
(SINGING) Speed it up, speed it up one time.
I'm gonna throw a fit, throw a fit all night.
- Hi, beautiful.
- I was planning on going to a prenatal.
So you can come with me if you would like to.
- OK, step daddy duties in park.
OK yes, I would love to.
- OK, see you soon. Be safe.
- All right, love.
Bye.
[music playing]
- Hey, friend.
- Hey.
How you been, babe? (ON) MEHGAN: Good.
How are you? (ON) DANIELLE: Good.
- You got you a drink?
- No.
I'm having her bring some water.
- You know, I'm about to happily get a
mimosa, period.
- Girl, they serving mimosas?
You guys have mimosas, alcohol? (ON) WAITRESS: Yes.
- Oh, OK! (ON) WAITRESS: Single, double.
- Can I do a cranberry mimosa?
- Me, too. Can I get double?
- Yes, ma'am.
- Double up too, yes.
- Thank you so much. (ON) DANIELLE: How you been?
- Good, OK.
- I know I see you doing the podcast now.
- Oh, period.
DANIELLE: I love that for you.
- Thank you.
On the podcast is cool, but I don't
really know how to turn off me.
Like, I'm gonna always speak my mind.
And I feel like, you know the world is lacking real bitches.
Like, people do not like real people.
- And what about One of Many?
- Wanna Ming?
Who the [bleep] is that?
- (DRAWN OUT) One of Many-- that's Mackenzie.
- Oh, Wanna Ming.
[laughter]
Apparently, Mackenzie-- Rat Kenzie, Snitch Kenzie--
- One of Many.
- Let's call her Mackenzie Ratatouille.
- Times One of Many because that's her name.
One of Many.
- So Ratatouille One of Many.
- I'd like to think that she's not a bad person.
But I will say that I have done my research.
And I do want to know, like, if you guys are becoming serious
and you guys are dating, why are you stalking me?
- Well maybe, Danielle and Mackenzie
need to, like, have a little sit down and talk to each other.
Or something because she's not that bad, I'm telling you.
She's really not that bad.
I feel like this love triangle is ridiculous,
and somebody needs to let it go.
But, like, what's gonna happen when you guys actually
have to be around each other?
Like, are you going to be calm and talk to her?
Or are you gonna pop off?
- I feel like it's definitely gonna
be room for a conversation.
[music playing]
- You don't even believe yourself, Dani.
- No, I'm serious.
Because you know what?
At the end of the day, I do want to address
the stalking, the harassment.
- Right.
- Because until you found out
that I was gonna be in Orlando, you
had your private relationship private.
Until you found out I was going to be here.
So baby, either you gonna figure it out,
you're gonna be respectful and we going to keep it classy,
or we can get outside in the streets.
And at the end of the day, we have two kids.
So I hope you don't think you're trying
to bully me up out his life because that's
not gonna happen, either.
I'm willing to sit down and have a conversation with Mackenzie
because I definitely have questions that need answers.
But I'm gonna tell you one thing.
She better keep it cute.
- Girl, is it a possibility that Rachaad
could be lying about y'all? Because you know how [bleep] be.
- We know how-- we know how that goes.
- Yeah.
- We know how that go.
And it's definitely hard to pull away
from him when I know that he still
loves me, I still love him.
But how do we, like--
- Like, love each other and not be together?
- Exactly.
Because at this point, I feel like at what point do you just,
like, stop the disrespect?
- So do y'all still be [bleep]
from time to time or what?
- I'm gonna just drink.
We do.
- And do?
- And do.
And will.
- And will.
[laughs] Not and will.
And will!
[music playing]
- Can't believe I'm folding baby clothes.
I'm five months pregnant, and my husband Devyn is still
overseas playing basketball.
Morgan's been really great filling in for him at times.
Ooh, look at the baby.
Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god.
It's so huge. (ON) MORGAN: Oh, it's the baby.
- The spine, whoa.
LYNDZIE: It's so big.
MORGAN: Look how it's growing.
- But I do miss my husband,
and I really want to experience this pregnancy
journey with him.
[cell phone chiming]
Hi, love bug.
- Hey.
- [chuckles] What are you doing?
- I just made myself a drink.
- Oh, really?
OK well, you know I went to get the ultrasound.
And it's kind of crazy how big this baby looks.
[laughs]
- Yeah, no.
- First of all, it's the spine.
Like, that freaked me out.
That's the first thing I saw was this picture.
That was the first thing she put on there.
Can you get more in the actual FaceTime?
It's on your-- your chin's not in it.
There you go, yeah. Put your whole face.
There you go. Thank you.
- So what do you have planned?
- Just waiting for you to get
here and see me and the child.
- I ain't in no rush.
- Devyn is the type of person,
you really have to really know him to love him.
Like, this child has been growing inside
of me for a really long time now,
and it's just kind of like, I think that he could give
me a little more right now.
- I haven't even asked Brian nothing.
- But I hope that he still
is trying to get you to possibly sign
late somewhere, so that you can be here for the birth.
- I ain't tell him I wanted to do that.
I got to first see what's even going on early.
Before I can tell him I'm gonna just sign late.
LYNDZIE: Well--
- I'm disappointed that Devyn
hasn't talked to his agent yet about signing late to a team.
The longer he waits, the riskier it is that he won't get time
off to be here for the birth.
Things move fast once the season starts,
and I don't want to do this alone.
If you weren't here for the birth,
I think that would definitely [bleep] me up mentally.
[weak laugh]
- We'll see how it play out.
- [scoffs]
DEVYN: All right, I gotta go.
- [frustrated sigh]
[music playing]
WOMAN: (RAPPING) Feeling like a million bucks, all ones.
On the reg, we shake it, then we throw it.
We throw it.
You say I'm a baddie, and I know it.
- I'm on my way to get my sisters in the Maybach.
My upbringing was really rough.
My mom had nine kids, my dad had six.
When I was younger, I was really rebellious.
But one thing about it is I always had a job.
I always had my head on my shoulders,
and I always made sure education was first.
My sisters Jada and Gwendolyn are 17 and 13.
We grew up in the same house together.
They were a lot younger than me, but I changed their diapers,
fed them bottles.
And to see how they are growing up today, I'm proud
but I also am a little concerned.
They've been running wild.
You know, the things that they have been doing
is really affecting the family.
And we're just trying to find a way to get them under control.
Hi, you guys.
JADA: Hey.
[music playing]
Man, I tried to pack.
- Tried to pack age appropriate.
- Tried to!
I got so many hand-me-downs from Dana and so many people.
I don't think I can--
like, all my bodysuits, either they have zip up
or they're automatically made to show at least a little boob.
So I don't know.
But I brought all the zip up ones.
- A little boob. (ON) JADA: The ones that--
- A little boob.
- --the ones that could at least zip up all the way,
you know?
- Yes, I don't want your titties out in general.
- Man.
- Jesus!
Y'all give me anxiety.
I went through an age where I was showing my body a lot more,
and I wasn't respected the same that I am now.
I don't know no 13 year old showing
they titties and they ass.
Do you?
Can I get my Aquaphor?
JADA: Where is it? (OFF) MULAN: Is it in there?
You don't see it? (OFF) JADA: No.
MULAN: It should be Aquaphor,
like a little squirtable--
- Oh, no.
- [laughs]
- Oh my god, oh my god.
I hope I don't think I know what that was.
- Why my vibrator's in my purse, I do not know.
Like, that is not the purse I've been using.
(LAUGHING) I'm sorry.
- I thought that was a Bluetooth--
I don't know. that was funny.
- That was [bleep] hilarious.
MULAN: (VOICEOVER) Coming up
on Basketball Wives Orlando--
- I have a cancer research center above my store.
I would like to do a wig for charity.
I lost my mom to cancer.
- I just lost my sister to cancer.
- It's excruciatingly painful.
- It's very hard to sit across from somebody
like you who's actually in a relationship with Rachaad,
who I have been with for 10 years.
- I never talked to Rachaad
while he was in a relationship with you, never.
- Have you been around my kids?
- You wasn't there for me as a mom in the years
that I needed you.
- You don't call me.
You don't say mama, can I help you.
My DNA is not built to kiss your ass.
- [sobs]
[music playing]
- Hi!
Oh my god, how are you?
ASHLEY: I'm doing good. How are you?
- I'm good. How are you?
- This is so cute.
I love it.
Oh my god, so how was Berlin?
ASHLEY: Berlin was good.
- My husband got to, like,
walk in their opening ceremony.
It was a lot of stuff.
Our family connected with the Special Olympics,
and they had the World Games in Berlin.
And they asked Tony to come and be a special guest,
and it was incredible.
Don't ever underestimate these kids
because they've got talent.
I have a cancer research center above my store,
so I would like to do a wig for charity.
- OK.
- I lost my mom to cancer.
- Really?
Please don't start right now.
I'm so tired of crying.
- But it's a lot.
- I just lost my sister to cancer.
ASHLEY: I'm sorry.
- How long ago did you lose your sister?
- April.
ASHLEY: I'm sorry.
- April 6.
- I'm sorry.
- So when did you lose your mother?
- So my mom, I lost her in 2019.
She battled for two years with stage IV,
and she died one year later.
- Oh, I'm sorry.
- When my mom was going
through chemo, like, having to shave her head and--
I would figure out different things,
and I would talk to, like, the other women there.
And a lot of them did wear wigs.
- The wigs really came from my sister.
I cut her hair off for her and everything.
Like, it's hard.
- (QUIETLY) Yeah.
Watching my mom go through what she did,
it made me want to make sure that I'm alive for my kids.
And that-- (VOICE BREAKING) that they have me
for as long as possible.
I wanted my mom to be there when I walked down the aisle.
I wanted my mom to be there when I--
[sniffles] when I lost the baby, when I had the babies.
It was just-- it's excruciatingly
painful that I couldn't share those moments with her.
- There are coping mechanisms.
Definitely been just eating.
- Yeah.
- So now, I'm gaining weight.
ASHLEY: But you gotta be gentle on yourself, honestly.
- You look good.
Your curves are good, honestly.
Unless someone's going through it,
they're not gonna understand.
So-- no, like, all the drama that's
been happening with this circle of girls, it's not important.
In the scheme of life, it doesn't [bleep] matter, right?
So many families are going through this.
It's already suffocating enough.
But then, like, buying wigs could be expensive.
You know?
- And they are real soldiers
because that is heartbreaking.
- I wanted to propose to you.
I would like to do a wig for charity,
and I'd like to have you involved in that.
- OK.
- If we can help even,
like, one person feel good.
- Yes.
See, your mother would be like oh, that's my girl.
And my sister would be like you go, girl.
Yes, let's do it.
I'm ready. Are you ready?
ASHLEY: OK, yeah.
Yeah, let's do it.
- A woman's hair is a major part of their identity.
I'm surprised that a regular wig fitting with Ashley
ended in a good cause.
This is amazing.
Look at me and Ashley bonding.
Girl, you kind of got a small head, too.
- Really?
I don't fit in any hats.
But I'll take it.
I'll take the small head compliment.
[music playing]
- After talking to Dre
about reconnecting with my mom, like, I kind of feel pressured.
- You know, I'm a very family oriented person.
- And you know I'm not.
- But that's the problem.
Family is the most important thing in life.
You need that relationship.
- Before he starts a family with me,
he wants me to reconnect with my family.
But the thing about that is that he doesn't know
the half of the background of the things
that I've been through.
Growing up, my mother wasn't really around.
I was raised by both my grandmother and my grandfather.
So I come from a two-parent home,
so I had a great childhood.
But I feel like my mother could have been there for me more.
From the stories I've heard, my grandparents
asked to keep me because they felt that my mom
was too young to raise a child.
So I don't really fault her for putting
me in a better position, but I do
fault her for not coming back.
I have to fix things with my mom for me,
and for Dre and our future.
[music playing]
- Mulan was trying real hard
to push me to get her to tell her what's
going on with this whole situation between Rachaad,
Danielle, and myself.
- He is playing both sides.
Get to the source, and just get it out.
Because if not, it's just gonna be he said this, she said that.
- Right. (OFF) MULAN: I said this.
Like, you know what I'm saying?
[music playing]
- So when Danielle asked me to sit down and talk,
I agreed.
I've been down to have this conversation for a while,
and I'm hoping we can come to some type of understanding.
- Have you actually met Mackenzie?
- I'm not going to no side bitch.
- Um, a side bitch is someone who messes
with a man in a relationship. I've never done that.
- You want to see screenshots?
- At the very least,
I'm hoping we can put an end to the disrespect
and the chatter that's been going on behind my back.
[music playing]
- I'm very surprised that Mackenzie agreed
to meet me in the first place.
I do want her to understand that my feelings are hurt.
I really hope that she is willing to take accountability.
You play side to me and my children's
father for quite some time.
How could you not understand me?
- She was just here last year, with
the whole situation with me.
- I took my ring off in March.
So to know that Mackenzie was obviously involved with him
since February, I hope that she understands that you were
involved with a man who was still
involved with the mother of his children and his fiancee.
Period.
DANIELLE: Thanks for meeting me here.
- So I invited you here today because I really
wanted to, like, get things on the table so we can have, like,
a woman to woman conversation.
It's very hard to sit across from somebody like you who's
actually in a relationship with Rachaad,
who I have been with for 10 years.
I've been dealing with Rachaad all year long.
Me and him have had extensive conversations
within the last year about him and multiple women.
It's not just you.
My relationship with Rachaad fell apart due to him
wanting to be non-monogamous.
That is not something that I want to participate in,
but he was adamant about that.
I feel like he'll live to regret that decision,
but I'm not waiting around for that.
When I said the side chick comment, that's how I felt.
I still feel that way because it's
clear that he's been proven to be a liar to not only me,
but to you. Correct?
- No, he hasn't.
- Are you sure about that?
- I'm sure.
When I met him, he told me he was single.
He made it really clear to me.
And mind you, I always knew he had kids because we've always
been friends on social media.
I never actually knew who you were until I found
out that you were friends with Morgan
and were gonna be down here.
When I found that out, I was like, OK.
I asked him. I said, do I know her?
He said, no. I said, OK.
- I've never been in a position
where I had to, like, prove myself or prove what
it is between me and Rachaad.
There's not an agent, coach, trainer
from Vegas all the way to Ukraine
that doesn't know who I am.
I've definitely checked a few bitches.
I've definitely stepped to whoever
I need to step to because everybody knows that's my man.
- That's your man right now?
- No, he's no longer.
- Danielle finally admits that she's not
in a relationship with Rachaad, which is what I've
been saying this whole time.
This is why I'm not a side chick,
and I refuse to be called one, point blank period.
So let's put an end to that, Dani Deville.
- As a woman to woman,
I feel like you were just in my shoes
last year with Nique and Dwayne.
At the end of the day, like, we're
more similar than you would like to probably acknowledge.
- It does not matter.
If you're in a committed relationship,
living together-- we're a family, we're a relationship--
talking to somebody else, anybody else,
would be considered cheating.
And then, that would be a side chick.
DANIELLE: I'm glad you said that.
- I never talked to Rachaad
while he was in a relationship with you, never.
So calling me a side chick is just-- it needs to be dead.
- We're not different.
This man lied to you, he lied to me.
Dwayne lied to you, he lied to Nique.
The common denominator is the man, obviously.
Nique understood that.
Mackenzie, why you can't understand it?
You're not with Rachaad 24/7.
He's not in Orlando.
You've been here for--
- I mean, I just dropped him off at the airport
yesterday morning. He has to work.
- And I just saw him too,
when he dropped my kids off.
- (LAUGHING) No
- Have you been around my kids?
Have you been around my children?
[music playing]
(OFF) MACKENZIE (VOICEOVER): Coming up
on Basketball Wives Orlando--
- Mom obviously changing mentally, especially
after Jaylen passed away.
My brother was murdered a few years ago.
It was an attempted robbery.
I don't want you guys just out here,
living life, thinking that it's a game.
And that's why-- (QUIETLY) sorry.
- I don't know how long you're gonna be here.
Are you thinking that you're gonna go or stay?
- I don't-- I don't know.
- You not being here for the birth will
really, like, [bleep] with me.
- My biggest, like, resentment towards you
is that I feel like you wasn't there
for me as a mom in the years that I needed you to be there.
- I'm not kissing nobody
ass, especially my child.
- You're not with Rachaad 24/7.
- I mean, I just dropped him off at the airport
yesterday morning for work.
- And I just saw him too,
when he dropped my kids off.
- (LAUGHING) No.
- Have you been around my kids?
Have you been around my children?
Given the fact that Mackenzie has two children of her own
that are the exact same age as Carter and Kari,
bitch you should be having a little bit more grace
and understanding for me.
You have crossed every single line,
and I'm definitely going to have a conversation with him.
I would never talk about you or any woman in front of children.
- Me, neither.
I don't play about kids, at all. (ON) DANIELLE: Mackenzie.
- What?
I'm telling you.
- Before you went to Tulum with Rachaad,
you were on my page and knew that me and Rachaad--
- I didn't know that you--
- --were still involved.
- No, I didn't.
I was looking to see if there was any sign
of you [bleep] with him. I didn't see anything.
- You saw it.
Wait Mackenzie, didn't you say you didn't know about me?
But all of a sudden, you're looking
for signs on social media that we're involved?
Make it make sense.
You knew what was up.
OK, let's talk about what we know for certain.
What we know for certain--
- What we know for certain is you and he were not
in a relationship, whether you were still [bleep]
around or flirting or whatever, y'all were
not in a relationship.
- We were still involved.
- You were not in a relationship.
- And you still decided to go to Tulum.
- Trying to call me
a side chick when you guys were not in a relationship
does not correlate.
If y'all were together, you'd be living in Minnesota.
You wouldn't be calling him, harassing him
for your [bleep] rent money.
Come on, now.
- Girl, harassing him for rent money?
Why would you even say that? (ON) MACKENZIE: I wouldn't.
- You said--
- Because my baby daddy makes sure I'm straight.
- You saying I'm dumb?
- I'm not gonna sit here--
DANIELLE: That's embarrassing for you to say.
We're not different.
We're the same.
We are the same type of woman.
You fought hard to keep Dwayne in your life.
And how dare you not have grace and understanding
for a woman like me. (ON) MACKENZIE: Oh, I do!
I do.
- I was just you last year.
- I do, but you don't give me a chance.
- Stay from my kids.
- OK.
- Stay away from my children.
We will never be friends.
We will never be cool.
I don't rock with girls like you.
So good luck to you.
- You're hilarious.
I can't wait to call him and laugh at this.
- We're not friends, and you're dismissed.
- I never tried to be your friend.
- Bye-bye.
- You asked me to come here.
You asked me to come here. (ON) DANIELLE: Bye.
- Bye.
- We're not friends.
We'll never be friends.
Clean up the trash, and take it out the door with you.
- Girl, you are so [bleep] ratchet.
DANIELLE: Trashy. (ON) MACKENZIE: Ratchet.
DANIELLE: Lame.
- Ugly.
- Yeah, OK.
[music playing] Sometimes in life,
you just gotta search yourself.
Search yourself.
And know you can't climb the mountain.
No one knows your time.
MULAN: Y'all want something to drink?
- Yeah. (ON) JADA: No, I'm fine.
MULAN: You do? (ON) GWENDOLYN: Mm-hmm.
- OK.
- So what are we eating tonight, chef?
MULAN: OK, so I only have chicken,
and I have ground turkey.
GWENDOLYN: Chicken and ground turkey?
- We can do tacos.
- Yeah, I was about to say that, tacos.
MULAN: Y'all wanna do tacos?
- Mm-hmm.
- Taco Thursday!
It's hard to see my sisters go through so much
trauma at such a young age.
And now with the recent murder of our brother,
it's just a lot.
But still, I'm not trying to be their mom, just a supportive
sister with the hopes that they don't
keep any more secrets from me.
The difference between my house and I
know where you guys have been, there's not a lot of, you know,
structure that's been installed.
But I just want you guys to get that back into your lives
because even if you are getting older, I admire structure.
That's, like, the biggest thing in my life.
Like, I love having a schedule, getting
up, having to be here at this time, having to go here,
do this.
It just makes you feel like you're
really accomplishing stuff, instead
of just floating around.
- Right, it's a routine.
MULAN: Exactly.
- It's good to have a routine.
- Yeah, for real.
Especially, like, going to Miami, crashing the rental.
That was really stressful.
- We've been working on it since we came back, though.
- You're almost grown.
That's different.
We got some years with Gwendolyn.
That's why we don't want her to think just
because she's hanging around you,
she can do the things you can do.
That's not how it works.
- I feel like a lot of, like, our--
the way we act out, it's a stability thing for me.
Like, I want so much more for myself.
I wouldn't even do probably-- not trying to say that half the
stuff I do, I just want to do.
MULAN: I know exactly what you're saying.
She wants to see herself somewhere.
- I mean, with mom obviously changing mentally,
especially after Jaylen passed away, that is the main thing
that I have seen.
Obviously, her behavior has been a lot different.
- Mm-hmm.
- So definitely something that I wanted
to talk to you guys about.
But it seems like you guys are handling it well.
- Yeah.
- We definitely all--
- We're just like-- we're slowly all trying
to be there for each other, like, at the same time
as trying to make sure we're good too.
Because, like, we all grieve in different ways.
Literally, all of us do.
Like Gwendolyn, she doesn't talk about it at all.
But I can tell that her not talking about it is
probably her coping mechanism.
- We all have a day.
We don't know when it's gonna be.
But we just gotta make sure while we're here,
we appreciate the time that we have.
Because stuff happens really fast.
Our brother-- quick.
That's why I don't want you guys just out here,
living life, thinking that, like, it's a game.
Because it's not.
My brother was murdered a few years ago.
It was an attempted robbery, and he ended up dying.
Cincinnati is definitely a small town,
but the environment is definitely
not all the way right.
And that's why I really, really pride myself
on trying to take my family and move
them from that environment, and just
show them something different.
I feel like it's a lot of trauma in Cincinnati.
- Mm-hmm.
- Like for me, when I go home I cry.
A lot.
I can't-- like, that shit--
that city, the energy, the vibrations,
everything is just so low.
And that's why-- (QUIETLY) I'm sorry.
JADA: It's OK.
- It's literally OK.
- Oh, my god.
That's why I'm like, I want--
I want more for y'all.
Like, I want y'all to get the [bleep] outta there.
Because it's just so much more to life and more
you can do, more opportunities.
And the more you stay in that-- that bubble.
- It's holding you back.
- It's holding you back, it's holding you back.
My sisters are still young enough where I feel
like I could change their path.
Even though I'm not excusing their actions,
I do understand that it's coming from a place of hurt.
So tomorrow, I'm gonna take you guys shopping.
And we're going to find you some clothes
that I feel like are age appropriate.
- Like I said, I do want to see the malls out here.
So I'm happy about that too, because I want to see--
- I wanna see a movie.
- And dinner will be-- what time is it?
Give me an hour.
- OK.
- Just give me an hour, OK?
MACKENZIE: (VOICEOVER): Coming up
on "Basketball Wives Orlando"--
- You haven't talked to Danielle.
- I can't accept, like, Dani
just putting her hands on me.
The way that they was moving, it was giving mean girl vibes.
I don't want to pick a side.
I was thrown on a side.
(RAPPING) I thank God every day that I'm awake.
Can't tell the future, but I know I'm gonna be great.
Can never care about what haters gonna say.
Gotta focus on yourself and putting food on a plate.
- After the ultrasound
and how our talk went, I'm happy to say Devyn is in town.
I'm so excited that we're spending time,
and he's able to really see me in my pregnant element.
LYNDZIE: You should get the hat.
That can be a boy or a girl hat.
- Nah, for sure.
- The first thing you're buying for your baby.
- Yeah, I do like this hat.
- You know I want a girl.
But I don't wanna get caught up on it, and then it's a boy
and I embarrass myself.
- Yeah, I said I wanted a girl first, though.
- Right. (ON) DEVYN: But then you--
- So there we are.
- But you keep talking about wanting it done,
so it's like--
- So you'd rather have
a boy, if it's one and done?
- (QUIETLY) Yeah.
- Why, so you and the boy can do what?
- So we can do whatever we want to do.
What you mean?
- Devyn has always said that he wanted three kids.
I think that's absurd.
The way my body feels right now, I couldn't imagine going
through this again voluntarily.
So I'm just gonna see what happens this first time around,
and then we'll go from there.
I don't know how long you're gonna be here.
But how are you-- what do you think?
Are you thinking that you're gonna go or stay?
How are you feeling about it?
- Nope, I don't--
I don't know.
Like--
- I'm fine with you going overseas because I feel
like your mom will be here.
My mom, like-- we have a lot of family that's
ready to love on this child.
It's gonna be ridiculous, actually.
But I feel like as long as you're
able to come home for the birth, that's the only part that
freaks me out.
Like, you not being here for the birth would
really, like, [bleep] with me.
I know.
DEVYN: Yeah.
- I'm really glad that Devyn now understands
how his absence affected me.
Now, we can move forward in a healthier way
for ourselves and the baby.
But also, weren't you gonna give me a push gift?
It's supposed to be, like, right before I give birth,
like right before I push. (ON) DEVYN: I though--
- This the gift?
[laughs jokingly] That's funny.
[music playing] All my life, I'm running.
Running to the life I want.
- After reaching out to my mom over and over again,
she finally responded and agreed to meet.
Like, I don't know how this is gonna go.
But here goes nothing.
(SINGING) Whenever I'm hurting, I shove it down and move along.
- In the past, like, when I've
tried to make amends with mama or whatever, it's like OK,
we back cool.
But, like, what about everything that
has happened over the years?
It always gets swept under the rug.
(SINGING) I didn't give up hope, and I know it's worth it.
- Over the years, it's been so much tension.
It's overwhelming for me.
But at the end of the day, like, we are family.
- Thank you.
Ooh girl, can I have a shot, too?
Child, my nerves bad.
WAITRESS: Yes, what would you like?
- Tequila. (LAUGHING) Thank you.
In this moment, I'm so nervous.
Flashes from my childhood are just popping into my brain.
And, like, I can feel myself almost about to cry,
and I just don't know what to do and how this is gonna go.
[music playing]
- Hey, Mehgan.
- Hey, Mom.
How are you doing? (ON) MEHGAN'S MOM: Good.
- You look good. (ON) MEHGAN'S MOM: Thank you.
You do, too.
- Thank you.
- So what's going on?
- Well, I had Brian come out here,
and we were just talking.
My biggest, like, resentment towards you
is that I feel like you will always be there for Brian.
And I felt like you wasn't there for me as a mom in the years
that I needed you to be there.
- OK, OK.
Well, I can acknowledge.
I can take some of that, but I'm not gonna take all of that.
I think you feel like I just gave up on you,
or you make it feel like I don't want you.
You make it seem like I don't love you.
That's not the case.
It never was the case, you know?
I did the very best with what I had.
You know, and I couldn't do no more.
So I'm not understanding, why are you
getting on these platforms and just using your family
and putting us down?
It is so embarrassing.
- Can you take some accountability, though?
It's not only just me.
- I just gave you some accountability.
I let somebody take over what I should have been doing, OK?
And that was raising my children together.
If I had it to do all over again,
I would do it much, much different, OK?
- Mm-hmm.
I give my mother a pass for letting
my grandparents raise me.
I feel like if I would have had a child at 17 in the world
that we live in today, I wouldn't
know what to do as a teen mom.
But I don't give her a pass for not coming back.
If that truth is embarrassing for my mom,
then that's on her at the end of the day.
- You've been placed on this pedestal
until it's like you forgot who was down here.
You don't call me.
You don't say mama, can I help you?
Or, are y'all OK?
I made it a long way.
I came a long, long way.
- This is the thing, Mom.
Like, I'm not a kid anymore.
I'm an adult. And I feel like you
don't know Mehgan the adult.
- You got to a status,
and you said else everybody, OK?
I am your mama, OK?
And if I tell you something, it's not to put you down.
- You know, like, I'm just really--
I don't really know how I feel.
Like-- [cries]
- You can't express how you feel crying,
so just take a deep breath and tell me what's going on.
- I just want to know, like--
what do you feel can make the situation better?
Because I don't know.
- Mehgan, I welcome you.
My love ain't gonna never change.
Good, bad, disrespectful, you are my child.
And you owe me some respect.
This is what's gonna solve the problem.
We have to respect one another.
And I feel sorry for you, Mehgan.
I feel sorry for you.
Because see, when these lights go out
and that green screen turn black,
you're gonna be in a dark, dark place.
- OK, you know what?
It's cool.
I'm just gonna go. (ON) MEHGAN'S MOM: OK.
- I'm just gonna go.
- [clicks tongue]
- (CRYING) Respect her.
(OFF) MACKENZIE (VOICEOVER): Coming up
on Basketball Wives Orlando--
- What the [bleep] happened with Mackenzie?
- The timeline still don't match up.
The fact that you would even insinuate that you've
been around my children, I told her,
I said bitch, that'll get you drug.
[music playing] High life, one love, city living.
Bright lights, bright lights.
Set the world on fire because we're living.
Because we're living.
City living.
- So I'm just forgetting
about that whole crazy situation with Danielle.
In fact, I don't even want to hear her name today.
Because today is my baby girl's birthday party, Chanel Bacon.
This is her first big birthday party.
For Chanel, so cute.
I invited a few of the ladies.
Unfortunately, Dwayne and Nique couldn't make it.
But he usually does his own thing for birthdays.
Look at this cake.
Co-parenting is going really well this summer,
but that doesn't mean we do everything together.
Oh, my goodness.
[music playing]
- This is cute.
It looks cute. You're so pretty.
- Thank you. (ON) ASHLEY: Hi!
Happy birthday.
- Can you say hi?
- She's like, is that a present?
- Yeah. She's like, is that for me?
ASHLEY: I got her a Barbie for each team
that Dwayne has played on.
- Oh, my gosh!
That's so cute.
Where did you find this?
ASHLEY: I collect them.
- Oh my goodness, thank you.
- Yeah, so then that way-- oh, yeah.
- Oh, that's so cool.
ASHLEY: Oh, sharing.
MACKENZIE: You're gonna share with friends?
You're gonna share with friends?
So cute.
ASHLEY: Arranged marriage, is that what we're doing?
- That's what it's looking like.
This is where it started.
Hey.
Oh my gosh, your belly's out.
- I know.
- It looks so cute.
Oh, my goodness. (ON) LYNDZIE: How are you?
MACKENZIE: Can you say hi? Can you say hi?
- Happy birthday!
- Say hi.
- She wants to go play.
- You wanna go?
- So should we go find some food or something?
I need pizza.
- I want some cheese pizza.
[music playing]
- Oh my goodness, hi.
Yes.
- You look so pretty.
- Thank you.
- CC, we're gonna go cut your cake.
- (SINGING) Happy birthday, dear CC.
Happy birthday to you.
- OK, mama.
[cheering]
[music playing]
- Oh my goodness, we need to catch up.
- I know.
- I feel like I haven't seen you--
- Since the dinner. (OFF) MULAN: I know.
You got the dinner, I'm thinking every which way.
But when I really sat down and evaluated, I'm like,
Lyndzie was pregnant.
- I know.
And, like, that was the first time I ever was in a situation
where I even had to think like, oh wait, you're pregnant.
- Big bully to yo bitch ass.
- He's lying.
DANIELLE: Big bully to yo bitch ass.
- So you haven't-- you haven't talked to Danielle?
- I feel like Lyndzie shouldn't
be bringing up Danielle at all.
I keep coming and sitting down and trying to mingle.
And every time I sit down, I hear
Dani Deville being brought up.
Why is this being brought up at my daughter's birthday party?
- I talked to Dani about a specific--
and I told her, like, the way that they was moving,
it was giving mean girl vibes.
I can't accept, like, Dani just putting her hands on me.
You know what I mean?
- So how do you feel about just,
like, y'all being cool?
- I feel like it's-- she's full of [bleep].
It took days and days and days for her to finally text me.
I don't wanna pick a side.
I don't have to pick a side.
But now, it's like I was thrown on a side at this point.
- There's two islands,
and then there's a boat that takes people back and forth.
- I like that.
I like that boat that goes back and forth.
- There's a boat that goes back and forth.
[music playing]
(SINGING) Pick it up now, pick it up now.
Pop it, drop it.
- Hi. (ON) BARTENDER: Hi.
How are you?
- Could I get something that looks
really cool and that's purple?
(RAPPING) I'm a bad chick.
I'm a who's who.
Watch me clap it back, show you what I can do.
- Hey, girl.
- Hey, friend.
- Thanks for meeting me here.
- Girl, look at my drink.
It's smoking.
DANIELLE: Oh, my god.
[music playing]
(RAPPING) Lights out, bottles popping.
- I'm just so excited to see some pretty faces
and some fun smiles and laughs today.
It just is very refreshing for me
to know that I have at least a couple of ladies in the group
that I can at least get along with.
NIKKI: Y'all, this place is so cool.
MORGAN: Yes, I love it.
NIKKI: I love it.
I love Halloween, too. It's fun.
You could be a [bleep], and nobody gonna judge you.
- You could do that every day, too.
- But they gonna judge you every day.
- I don't care.
- Where is the Protect Black Women purse?
- You're dismissed.
- You asked me to come here.
DANIELLE: Bye.
- Didn't go with the outfit today?
- Child, that's a receipt bag.
When y'all see me bring that bag out,
know it's receipts in it, OK?
I'm so glad y'all came here with me today
because I got some tea, child.
MORGAN: You got some tea?
- Ooh, this is spicy.
- What the [bleep] happened with Mackenzie?
- Girl, I invited Mackenzie to come
sit down with me at a bar.
I was a little thrown off because she had on leather,
like, thigh highs.
And I just couldn't get past the fact
that it was 155 degrees outside.
Honestly, from the conversation that I had with Mackenzie
was that the timeline still don't match up.
Still to this day, he has not admitted to dating you,
to being with you.
He assures me that he is as single as he's ever been.
And she kind of, like, smirked and insinuated that she
had been around my kids before.
- That [bleep] pissed me off a little bit.
- That [bleep] pissed me off.
So the fact that you would even insinuate that you've
been around my children--
I told her, I said, bitch that'll get you drug.
- I'm proud of Danielle
for being able to keep her cool.
Because I'm not sure I would be able to do the same.
And where is Rachaad?
He's the only person that can put this mess to bed,
and he's been MIA.
MORGAN: But that's what's been going on in your life.
DANIELLE: Yes, friend.
NIKKI: Wait, have you talked to Mulan?
- Yeah.
So I invited Mulan to come sit down with me.
MORGAN: To squash it.
- To squash it, just be dead, like, done.
It's over with. I don't care.
- It's so disgusting.
- You know, she told
me she felt like she was in the middle of all of our drama.
And she acting like basically her cup is empty right now.
- I'm confused.
Bitch, I'm drunk.
[laughter]
- Mulan is a [bleep] flip flopper.
She doesn't know her truth because all she does
is spew out lies and rumors.
- But my thing is like baby,
you place yourself in the middle of our situations.
Nobody signs you up to be the mediator.
- Everything that happened between Nique
and I at Mulan's dinner happened because Mulan didn't
want the truth to come out.
Period.
- I just feel like because Mulan felt violated,
she got punched in front of everybody,
she didn't react in that space.
The tough guy train left the station.
- [bleep] Mulan.
When we all getting together again?
- Well I mean, I don't know.
Nique told me about a pajama party that she's having.
- Well girl, share the location
and let me pull up.
We in Orlando.
We here to stay.
[laughs]
- Rachaad and I have gotten extremely close.
- If I were to have a side piece,
I would probably just tell you.
- Raheem ended up getting shot.
It was bad.
(VOICE BREAKING) He's literally, like, my best friend.
- Tonight is my slumber party.
I just really want us all to squash the drama.
You know we gotta have a twerk off.
- I have a question for you.
Did you give [bleep] our address?
- No, I did not. (ON) MORGAN: You're a liar.
- You already threatened to kill me.
- It's not a threat, it's a promise.
- Dani handled herself really well today.
- And you sell your [bleep] on OnlyFans, bitch.
