Towanda invites Sean to Napa Valley.
The episode opens with Towanda bringing Sean a bottle of wine in the studio. She uses the time to nervously invite him to Napa Valley for Tamar’s birthday. But first, Towanda shows him the album cover of the Braxtons album he produced, and reminisced their time recording the album.
Sean’s excited to go on the trip. She also insinuates that she may be pregnant and Sean can’t believe it.
Eventually, Trina and Traci show up with Kevin and Von and are greeted by Toni hiding her face. She explains to them that the sun can mess with her due to her Lupus. She arrived early and picked the best room. Inside of the villa, every room looks amazing.
Kevin and Von bond.
Kevin pulled Von aside to commend him for everything he’s done for Trina. Von take a liking to him as well. Birdman conveniently missed the trip. With the sisters, Traci asks Toni if she’s engaged to Birdman. Toni brushed it off and directed attention to Trina and Von. Trina seems to be open to marriage with Von.
Towanda and Sean are next to arrive. Sean and Von are talking and Towanda hears them talking about having children. So she brings over a glass of champagne to everyone for a toast. Trina notices that Towanda isn’t drinking. So she begins to think she’s pregnant also.
Finally, the birthday girl Tamar arrives with David. Tamar pitches a fit when she notices their room is small. However, David is completely happy to be in any room with Tamar. Tamar finds Trina and Von’s room to complain.
David makes things akward.
Later the night the chefs are busy cooking dinner and the couples show up for dinner. Sean is passing out drinks and Towanda declines a shot of Don Julio. So, Tamar uses the moment to ask Towanda if she’s pregnant but she brushes it off.
The dinner goes off well but Toni brushes off questions of how she met Birdman.
Later on, everyone laughs at David’s story of how they met because he couldn’t tell if Tamar was black at first.
The next morning, Towanda and Sean are up for breakfast and they recap how David may have put his foot into his mouth. When everyone joins them for breakfast, Towanda runs off the itenariary for the day which makes Tamar quite happy.
One of the events will be taking a trip to Madalvi Winery. Here, they taste various wines and break out in song during the process.
Tamar calls shooting dice “ghetto.”
Before the trip, The guys hang out and Kevin pulls out dice. As they show David how to play, Sean asks him if he got in trouble with Tamar from dinner yesterday. They also asked Von if he’s prepared to propose to Trina. Von’s ready to propose and could do it on the trip. However, he reveals the passing of her ex Gabe was tough for him. It was tough because she was crying over another man.
Suddenly, Tamar comes over and pulls David away from the rest of the guys. Thankfully for him, he likes getting in trouble with Tamar for the make up.
When David tells her he was learning how to shoot dice, Tamar says he can’t do that because it’s ghetto. David understands Tamar’s trying to protect his image.
Tamar gets irritated at her birthday dinner.
To end the episode, they are heading for Tamar’s birthday dinner. Kevin prays over the dinner and wishes Tamar and Traci a happy birthday. Toni notices that it irritated Tamar a little bit. Toni gives her a trip to a hot air ballon ride and Tamar declines it. But she likes her other gifts. Lastly, her cake comes out and she has everyone grab the cake but Toni didn’t do it which irritates her more.
This is only a sign of things to come.
“This is the worst birthday I ever had.” – Tamar
