Everyone is getting ready for their appearance on TD Jakes’ talk show.
The family didn’t get much time to contemplate if they should go on the talk show or not, but Tamar has convinced them to move forward.
However, they can’t forget how intense things got the last time, especially when Michael’s new marriage was discussed.
“I didn’t realize how busy new relationships make you.” – Toni
Toni says things are going very good with Birdman, but she’s afraid they won’t be able to remain friends if the relationship doesn’t work out. Evelyn tells her not to worry about the Future and enjoy things for what they are by taking things one step at a time.
Towanda and Tamar feel like it was shady for Tamar to tell them about the appearance last minute.
Tamar has some butterflies of her own and the sisters face obstacles while preparing to sing.
With a lot of bad press surrounding her name, she really doesn’t want anything she says to misunderstood and taken out of context on TD Jakes’ show.
“I’m not here to offend…be a victim…none of that.” – Tamar
Tamar also learns last minute that TD Jakes wants them to sing.
Toni is late but they begin rehearsing anyway. Evelyn tells them that their harmonizing sounds off.
Toni eventually arrives but has to learn the song.
When they go out on the stage, the producers of TD Jakes’ show replay the clips from their last sitdown, and they once again discuss Michael and Evelyn’s divorce.
Michael says things have gotten better and he was able to mend relationships by not giving up on communication.
When it’s time for them to sing “Be Well,” Toni freezes up and never sings her part which is the lead. After seconds of awkwardness, Tamar sings lead and they get through the 30 second performance.
“You did the same thing on ‘Family Feud.’” – Tamar to Tony
Towanda thinks it’s time for a family vacation.
Now that everyone seems to be getting along, Towanda suggests they plan a family getaway. They think Mexico may be the best destination.
Later, they have dinner with Michael and inform him of their vacation idea.
He tells them he’s not sure yet if the vacation will work out because he wants his wife to come.
“Elephant go back!” – Tamar
Before the trip can happen, the family must get Evelyn to agree to Michael’s wife, Ms. Wanda, coming too.
What are your thoughts on the episode?
I don’t know if I could go on a vacation with my father’s side chick. Nope. I can’t do it.
Things are going to get really messy if his wife does go.
If you can forgive your father and accept him, then you should try with his wife.
I think the children would be ok with his marriage if Evelyn would be. She’s the one who seems to still be holding on to the past and refusing to move on. I think it’s pretty selfish of her.
Sh-t I have to admit Traci said some real sh-t when she explained why she is able to be around Michael’s wife with no problems. Sometimes sh-t is just bigger than you and your feelings. But I understand why it’s just hard for Evelyn to deal with. Michael put her through a lot of sh-t.
He has some nerve.
Nah. Not going no where with my daddy’s whore
I feel for Evelyn and the kids.
One of the hardest thing for children to do is separate from their parents relationship and focus on the relationship with each parent, when you as the child can decide to let mommy and daddy heal with their relationship woes, it will be easier for them to move on, but in Tracy’s case I think from what they have all aired on television is that it was also easier for her because she was kinda separated from her siblings and her mom, they all had moved away and really she only had her dad for a long time and so as she said her son needed family too.
ME PERSONALLY I DON’T FEEL LIKE THAT SHOULD EVER BE OR BECOME AN OPTION FOR THIS MISTRESS OF NINE YEARS. I FEEL LIKE SHE’S HAD MORE THAN ENOUGH VACATIONING TIME WITH MR. BRAXTON. ESPECIALLY IF THE LADIES ARE NOT READY TO INCORPORATE HER WITH MISS EVELYN!!!!
Michael Braxton got some damn nerve even bringing up some stupid shift like that! He wants to bring his nasty man stealing whore around his children and their mother is he crazzzy!! This woman and their father is probably the reason why they have suffered bad marriages. They should give him a piece of their minds and tell him stay home with the biatch!!
I don’t think it’s a good idea for the wife to come on the trip!! Mainly cause of the cheating!! Mr Braxton should know better than that he’s the ine that tore the family apart in the 1st place!!!!And ms wanda knew he was married wen she started this nasty mess she should have said no ur a married man!!!! A man want go as far as a woman let’s him go and she did and he knows better to dey just didn’t care dey only thought of themselves!!!!!! And hell to da naw i wouldn’t want her ass on my family trip!!!! Mr braxton should be greatful that his daughter’s still want him in their lives!!!! Cause if was me his ass would be cut off to for awhile cause no one would have my trust for awhile mainly because u hurt my mom and that ish is for real!!!!!!!!!! Again hell to da naw!!!! Mr E shouldn’t have to go through that heart breaking thing again mr braxton have a lot of balls even to asked that stupid as question!!!! Im just saying dey don’t have to except her but just respect her long distance!!!!!!!!!!
None of my business what, who, where, when or why!! That’s their problem. Hey if she was not having an affair with the father but he met her years after he divorced his wife then there should be no problem if she comes along.
You can tell the woman truly has NO self respect to be asked such an asinine question by your stupid as man and except an invite to mingle with the family that you broke up she has no morals or values. He only wants to be in their lives because of the perks that come along with it. He wasn’t trying to be a father when he was crying over that who’re. Him and that trick needs money and once again their using his real wife and children without respect to what the word FAMILY means!! And Vince should have stayed his Fat a– home and let the sisters, mom and dad have some family time as well!!
Ms. Wanda was a side chick and that is the crux of the matter! If Mr. Braxton has not brought her into his first marriage than there probably would not been an issue.
This ms Wanda b-tch she is gonna get hers and some. The nerve of Mr Braxton wanted to bring his whore around Mrs.evelyn and to remind her why their family was destroyed. Mrs.evelyn should beat her azz. I was proud of tamar the only one stood up for their mother, she put that daddy of theirs in his place I’m sorry but sometimes women do some f-ck up sh-t to other women for unnecessary sh-t but you will reap what you sow. yes I believe ms Evelyn still loves Mr Braxton and he still loves her why shouldn’t she after all he’s her husband that is playing house with a home wrecker.
