Meanwhile, Monster’s living fulltime with Marsau and Kimmi. As they’re getting ready for the day, Maurice knows Kimmi’s nervous about quitting her nursing job. He tells Kimmi that he doesn’t want to make her a housewife. He does want her to be an entrepreneur like him. Next, Kimmi tells Maurice about LaTisha being thrown out by Melody. Maurice says it was too much.
Later in the morning, Marsau and LaTisha reveal they are building a shopping center that will be anchored by a cigar lounge. They own the entire complex and it’s their crown jewel. While they’re checking on construction, Marsau expresses his frustration with LaTisha’s beef with Melody. He feels LaTisha’s not listening to him about it. He wants LaTisha to stop forcing a relationship with Melody. He wants LaTisha to “keep that same energy’ for their marriage. LaTisha leaves in disgust, calling Marsau a jerk after he tells LaTisha this.
Martell wants another child.
Meanwhile, the Holts visit Melody’s doctor. They are talking about Melody possibly getting her tubes tied. Martell wants another child and Melody isn’t excited about this. He’s insistent about having this 5th child. When the doctor leaves the room, Melody and Martell bring up LaTisha’s comments. They also didn’t like Kimmi straddling the fence and Martell calls her the side chick, referring to how she met Marsau. Martell says people on social media accused Maurice and Kimmi of getting together before he was divorced.

Wanda then brings up Melody, saying she should get over Martell cheating as she knew he was a cheater two years into the marriage. Wanda jokes that she would’ve taken Martell to the clinic to get a vasectomy. She then goes off after hearing Melody had LaTisha escorted out of her MBrace Beauty event. She shocks LaTisha when she tells her she should’ve “slapped that b****.”
Wanda also warns LaTisha that Kimmi is shady and is straddling the fence. LaTisha doesn’t want to get involved and in-between any beef between Kimmi and Wanda.

She didn’t cook dinner and that frustrates Marsau. He tells LaTisha he gave up a part of himself to be in this marriage and LaTisha needs to do the same. But LaTisha still has her own goals and is expressing this in her speech. Marsau feels LaTisha is discrediting him a bit by mentioning how she had to put her career last for her family.
