00:00We need to get you a job.
00:01Al has been in prison for five years for possession and distribution of heroin.
00:07Looks like she hasn't checked in yet.
00:09What's wrong, babe?
00:10I'm kind of worried about you right now.
00:12Why don't you pull over?
00:14Oh my god!
00:16Dominic was arrested for getting in a bar fight.
00:19So happy to have you back.
00:21We basically spent 30 days together out of the whole six years.
00:25Let's just go with that.
00:27I'm a Mormon girl.
00:29He's a gangbanger.
00:30Yes, yes, yes.
00:32I do not agree with his baby mama following us around LA.
00:38You're not going to come before my kids.
00:40Who said that?
00:41Stay away from me.
00:43That's what I'm asking you.
00:45This is my freedom.
00:46This is me finally being able to come home, cut loose.
00:49You guys literally went looking for .
00:51Garrett promised me he would never not come home by 2 a.m. again.
00:56And I just feel like that was all .
00:58You said you didn't even care about going out or going to the club.
01:10And now, like, you're staying out until 7 in the morning the first night you can drink.
01:13And it's my birthday two days later, and you don't even get drunk with me the first time.
01:19You get drunk with your stupid friends who were nowhere to be found for all those years.
01:23This isn't the first time that Garrett's really up, but I'm having a hard time moving past it.
01:30Honestly, I don't think that you're understanding what I'm saying to you.
01:34If it wasn't my birthday, we would not be together.
01:38It is hurting my pride to stay with you because what you did was unacceptable.
01:42Garrett has seriously ruined my entire birthday by pulling this .
01:45But I feel obligated to put on a happy face for the friends I invited out for my birthday.
01:51All right, I told you.
01:52I don't know what else you want me to say.
01:54I told you I can't help.
01:54I apologize.
01:56We talk.
01:56You know what I mean?
01:57You're just not being the man that you said you were going to be.
02:00And that's why I get pissed off.
02:02I feel like I'm just one of those girls that got fooled.
02:05This time I really did take it too far.
02:07I really screwed it up.
02:08I can't lose on her.
02:10I'll do whatever I have to do to make this right.
02:14The only thing I'm saying about I love you, it's your birthday.
02:16Let's have a good night.
02:18I mean, we're going to have a good night.
02:18I don't know.
02:20Garrett's been home about a month now, and he still has not proposed.
02:24You know, the ball is in your court.
02:25Let's see if you don't piss me off again.
02:27I've read studies that show that inmates who are released and get married within 60 days
02:32have a better chance of staying out of prison.
02:35But I'm honestly so frustrated with Garrett that if he did propose,
02:38I don't even know if I'd say yes.
02:52L.A. was crazy.
02:54It was crazy.
02:56I got back from California over a week ago.
02:59It feels good to be with my kids and my Mormon friends and family.
03:05Okay, tell me about it.
03:06So, I went to pick him up, and I was freaking out at first.
03:11But when I saw him, I just started screaming.
03:14Because you were happy.
03:14Yes.
03:15But, um, we had a big fight.
03:19What?
03:19We had a welcome home party, and Lamar really wanted his daughter there, which is cool,
03:25you know, because he really, really wanted to see his daughter.
03:27But he was like, her mom's going to come.
03:31And I'm going to be sitting across somebody who had sex with my soon-to-be husband.
03:36Did you leave?
03:36I left.
03:37Good job.
03:38What?
03:38Do you, boo?
03:40Do you, boo?
03:41Do you?
03:42So, then he's mad, and he's looking for me everywhere.
03:45And so, finally, we met up.
03:47And then he's like, I'm not going to play that note.
03:50We start arguing, and he just clicked and turned into, I guess, an inmate.
03:56Like, no joke.
03:58And he's just like, get away from me.
04:00All your whole life is control-free.
04:02You keep talking, what's going to happen?
04:05What you mean?
04:05Get away from me.
04:06You get away from me.
04:07What are you doing?
04:08You're not going nowhere?
04:09Get away from me.
04:11This is, this just took a turn, because you had a good time, but he was basically rude.
04:18He was more than rude, Michelle.
04:20He was like a bulldog.
04:21He was locking me like he was going to just knock me out.
04:25I'm like, don't hit me.
04:28Did he put his hands on you?
04:30No, he was just calling me all these names, swearing at me, putting me down.
04:35And I was like, well, then you should be happy that I'm leaving you.
04:37That's a red flag.
04:37You don't want any kind of man that's going to disrespect you in that kind of way.
04:41I know.
04:44Do you?
04:48This is a person you want to spend the rest of your life with?
04:51I think so, yes.
04:52Oh, he can't treat you like that.
04:54Don't talk to me like I'm that chick, like I'm one of those girls.
04:58That's what you're sounding like.
05:00He's a good person.
05:01Who just gets mad and threatens to hit a girl.
05:04Little by little, Drea is becoming someone she isn't just so she can get married.
05:09She'd be keying my boyfriend's car if he ever talked to me like that.
05:12She'd mess this stuff up.
05:14You make a lot of excuses for him.
05:16After that, he had so much remorse.
05:18They always do.
05:19I am not your friend right now, just so you know.
05:25Man, it go both ways.
05:26Things got out of here now.
05:27If I could take it all back, I would.
05:30That's just too much for me to handle.
05:33I love you.
05:33I can treat you right.
05:34I do everything.
05:35I'm loyal.
05:36I ain't cheating one time.
05:38You the queen.
05:39You the queen.
05:39He can't treat you like that.
05:45Like, you feeling scared.
05:46This is supposed to be your husband.
05:47Your husband's supposed to be your protector.
05:48I only feel scared when he gets into that prison mentality.
05:53He spent 18 years in prison.
05:54Mm-hmm.
05:55How's he going to come out of that?
05:57Michelle, I prayed and fasted about this for a long time.
06:00I'm not saying you didn't.
06:01I'm just saying.
06:02I made the decision to be with him.
06:04And this is something that I'm willing to and honored to work on.
06:10I just can't wait to be a family.
06:12Yeah.
06:12But just with him there and me here, it's hard.
06:16The plan has always been that when he got out of prison, he would move to Utah.
06:21So our entire family can be together and stable.
06:26I'm going to try to work this out.
06:28He's got one more time.
06:29Yes, I agree.
06:31I promise.
06:32Okay?
06:39Man, it's good to have you home, bro.
06:42You know, I'm here.
06:44My brother Dulo, you know, he was nice enough, kind enough to allow me to have a room and,
06:50you know, so I can lay my head until I can get on my feet.
06:53Mi casa su casa.
06:55Somewhere my parole officer can come check out and, you know, make sure that I'm doing the right things.
07:01And that's all I need.
07:03Yeah, I really appreciate it, man, because, um, at first I didn't have nowhere to go when I got out.
07:08You already know, man.
07:08Anything I can do for you, buddy, I got you, fam.
07:12I love you, brother.
07:14You know what I'm thinking of going to Utah, the city?
07:16Andrea, man.
07:17You know what I'm saying?
07:18And meet the kids for the first time.
07:20I ain't never seen them.
07:21I got this marriage coming up in Utah.
07:24She's expecting me.
07:25That sounds good, man.
07:27It's going to be a beautiful thing.
07:28Yeah.
07:29What's your parole officer going to say about it?
07:31My parole officer, you know, she hardcore.
07:34They tell me I can't leave Los Angeles County.
07:37No, she ain't going to play no games.
07:39She's going to arrest me, you know what I'm saying?
07:41Because, um, I'm breaking my parole conditions, but what they don't know, it's going to hurt them.
07:47You can't go to Utah, bro.
07:50What you mean?
07:51You go to Utah.
07:53Meet the kids.
07:55Chill with Andrea.
07:57And your parole officer is at my door looking for you.
08:03Then what happens?
08:04I'm going to go back to prison a year to 16 months.
08:07Come up with a different plan, because that one right there ain't it.
08:12The parole thing is killing my relationship and it's killing my life.
08:17Put yourself on show.
08:18You got a woman that's been supporting you.
08:20She's making sure you got your packages, your food, your letters.
08:23Now I'm home and she expects to see me.
08:26I love her, bro.
08:27Yeah, you know what I'm saying?
08:28I feel like I...
08:28Everybody walked out.
08:29You know what I'm saying?
08:30She walked in.
08:30She was.
08:30She was.
08:31But right now, you out.
08:33You're going to risk going back?
08:35That don't even make sense, bro.
08:36You know what I'm saying?
08:37You're going to have to talk to your fiancee, bro.
08:40Straight up.
08:41She's going to be crushed because I've been telling her I can come.
08:44And I ain't told her, you know what I'm saying, all the conditions on my parole.
08:50I'm really going to have to break the bond to her that it is more than so much.
08:52It's more than...
08:54You know what I'm saying?
08:55But it's hard to just...
08:57I try to be completely honest.
08:59But sometimes it hurt too much.
09:03At first, I believed that I was able to put in some paperwork with my parole officer.
09:09And they was going to understand that my family is in another state.
09:13But I can't leave L.A. County.
09:16It's all about, I ain't trying to keep breaking bad news to my woman, man.
09:21And I've been doing that since prison.
09:25I can't believe he's even considering going to Utah when it's clearly a violation of his parole agreement.
09:35And this is out of your control.
09:37I don't know how she's going to feel about that because she takes everything hard.
09:42She's on a trip.
09:43I'm worried, like, to tell her I can't come to Utah, am I finna lose the woman that's been there with me for so long?
09:51I don't know.
09:59So, Ola was on her way to me at this...
10:01Not only agency place.
10:03She didn't make it out.
10:04It was an appointment.
10:05It's not bad.
10:07Why don't you pull over?
10:09I want to come and get you.
10:11When Ola tells me that she's sick, I don't give a sh** about anything else.
10:15I just want to get to her and make sure that she's okay.
10:17Okay.
10:27There she is.
10:39Oh, my God.
10:41I'm so sorry.
10:42I couldn't drive.
10:46I feel a little better, but I think I'm a fever.
10:48Feel my head.
10:51I feel warm?
10:52What do you think it is?
10:55Alla is sick.
10:56She said she wasn't feeling too hot this morning,
10:58and, you know, maybe I was kind of pushing her
11:00a little bit too much,
11:01and maybe I was being kind of a dick.
11:04I stood up, and I got really lightheaded,
11:07and all of a sudden overwhelming nausea,
11:09and I had to grow up.
11:10I missed your appointment that I sent for you.
11:12I know.
11:13You know what?
11:14Maybe that was connected.
11:17I know.
11:18I feel like I'm stressing you out with this stuff.
11:19I just don't...
11:20Want to do it?
11:21No, I don't.
11:22That was in the past.
11:23Why?
11:24No, I'm just trying to think of opportunities
11:25of people that will...
11:26I already did that.
11:28There's so much more that I would be happier doing
11:32than something superficial,
11:34like maybe I am pregnant.
11:37She thinks she's pregnant.
11:41She thinks she's pregnant.
11:43With me getting sick like this,
11:44I need to get down to the bottom of it.
11:46Right now, I don't know what to think.
11:48Couldn't get a pregnancy test.
11:49Okay.
11:50I'm so ready for the next chapter of life.
11:53Kids, family.
11:55I am a little bit freaked out.
11:58You know, I'd really like for us to be more established
12:01before we take that journey together.
12:03I'd like for her to live in Chicago
12:05and, you know, ideally be off probation.
12:08If I was pregnant, we need to figure it out,
12:10and I need to figure it out fast.
12:14Cheers to everyone.
12:15Thanks for coming.
12:16All right, we're doing presents, guys.
12:17We're doing presents.
12:18Oh, my God.
12:19I opened the box,
12:20and it's a chocolate-covered strawberry.
12:22What the is this?
12:24When you're dating a prisoner,
12:25and you get a call from a lawyer,
12:27it's not a good feeling.
12:28I don't want to be the bearer of bad news.
12:30You literally just took a pregnancy test.
12:32I know I did.
12:33You want to tell me what happened?
12:34I will tell you.
12:45Come on, Tony.
12:46Make a call, sweetie.
12:47I don't want to wait all day.
12:48Tony video calls me frequently,
12:50and I will hear from him very soon.
12:52Tony is my lover, my best friend,
12:55my soon-to-be husband.
12:57I was excited to start our life in the free world,
13:01but when Tony didn't show up at the bus station,
13:03I had numerous emotions going on.
13:06Well, nothing happened.
13:08You had talked to him today?
13:09No, I haven't heard from him.
13:11He is a convict,
13:13so it could have been all game from the beginning.
13:15I'm about to cry.
13:17I'm going over here.
13:20Tony could have been lying to me the whole time,
13:22but I refuse to believe that.
13:26Oh, he's calling.
13:27He's calling.
13:28Hey, baby.
13:30Can you hear me?
13:32Hi.
13:33Hey, baby.
13:34I need you to hear me.
13:35Yeah.
13:36So what's the deal?
13:37Well, I'm still kind of shell-shocked
13:39over the whole situation.
13:40I don't really know what to do.
13:43Yeah, well, I've been tripping out.
13:45I need details.
13:46I need information.
13:47Tell me something, Tony, please.
13:49I packed all my stuff, and I waited,
13:51and I waited, and I waited to get released,
13:53and it never happened.
13:55Do you have any idea what your new date's going to be?
13:59So you've just been sitting there waiting on somebody
14:03to tell you something?
14:04Nobody told you anything?
14:06I don't really know.
14:09I'm going to be released soon.
14:12Well, I was so angry when you did not show at the bus station.
14:18I waited all day long.
14:20You weren't worried about losing me, were you?
14:23It crossed my mind, babe.
14:26I was really feeling like you had changed plans on me
14:29or something.
14:30It scared me.
14:31You wouldn't lie to me about something like that, would you?
14:39Yeah.
14:40Because I'm sure there's always that worry
14:41in the back of your mind when you're, you know,
14:44dating a convict, and believe it or not,
14:47there's always that worry in the back of my mind.
14:49And, you know, a man is incarcerated.
14:50He has worries, too, about why a woman would write in it.
14:53I have to trust you just as much, you know?
14:56So much unknown goes on with this prison relationship stuff.
15:00And people might assume that I'm desperate or something,
15:03but I'm not in this relationship out of desperation.
15:08So how are you feeling?
15:10I'm supposed to be having sex and eating a steak right now,
15:12not hanging out with kids.
15:14I can understand your frustration there, love.
15:17You've been looking forward to that for a while now.
15:19You know, we've been counting down the days.
15:21What were you waiting for, the steak or the sex?
15:23Of course, love.
15:24I was waiting on the sex, okay?
15:26You know that.
15:28I can't wait till I marry Tony.
15:30I'm so ready to marry Tony.
15:33I definitely would marry him tomorrow if I could.
15:36Um, so I have to give him some money.
15:39Yeah, I got you.
15:40Just gotta hang in there, sweetie.
15:43I don't think Tony is using me for the money.
15:46I just, I don't think Tony would lie to me.
15:49I do love taking care of him,
15:51but I'm definitely ready for him to get out
15:53so he can take care of himself.
15:55Can I have a kiss?
15:57Mmm.
16:01Mmm.
16:02I love you.
16:03I love you too, baby.
16:04You have a good day too, all right?
16:05Bye.
16:06Bye, baby.
16:07I will always say to have to hang up.
16:09Where are we going?
16:23Wait until you see.
16:25Even though Dom just got out of prison,
16:27we haven't been able to spend much time together
16:30because he has to stay in the halfway house.
16:32But I can't wait any longer to get married,
16:35and I need Dom on board.
16:38I need you helping me plan.
16:40Like, this is happening.
16:41So, this is the big surprise.
16:44I wanted to show you some tuxes for our wedding.
16:49I never said I was coming here.
16:51Like, you're not allowed to be here?
16:53No, I'm not supposed to be.
16:56Mary knows my parole,
16:58expects me to plan out the whole day
17:00and let them know in advance.
17:02Do you think since we're here you could?
17:03All right, I can do it quickly.
17:05Mary has no idea what being in prison was like
17:08or just dealing with that side of all this .
17:13Hello.
17:14Hi.
17:15Welcome to Got Style.
17:16Thanks.
17:17I'm Melissa.
17:18I'm Mary.
17:19Mary, nice to meet you.
17:20Dominic.
17:21Dominic, nice to meet you.
17:22What can I help you guys with today?
17:23He didn't know he was coming here,
17:24but I wanted him to check out some looks for tux for our wedding.
17:29Oh, congratulations.
17:30Thanks.
17:31So, there's a couple different options we can do.
17:36You could do a classic black.
17:39What's sort of trending right now is color.
17:42So, we've got a really great blue.
17:44Ooh, I kind of like that.
17:45Blue.
17:46Okay.
17:47We're almost there.
17:48Ooh.
17:49I'm not used to you.
17:51Like, you've bulked up so much.
17:53You're not the skinny guy you used to be.
17:55Seeing Dominic in that tuxedo, like, wow, that's my man.
17:59Like, he's sexy and I've never seen him look so good.
18:04I look good.
18:05I look good.
18:06You gotta admit, you look good.
18:09Is it something you think you would see wearing on your wedding day?
18:12This is way better than what you're wearing in prison.
18:17Obviously.
18:19I just need to get out of here to get back, but...
18:24I know.
18:25I'm just...
18:26We'll just quickly, like, add a couple things, try the tie on, and then we can go.
18:32I have to do a phone check-in soon from a landline.
18:35What does that mean?
18:36I just call from a pay phone or a landline so they know that I'm in the right area.
18:41Okay.
18:42Well, we'll just finish trying this on, and then we'll...
18:45I'll make sure we'll go outside and we'll find you one.
18:47All right.
18:48Dom seems really paranoid.
18:51He never used to be like this, afraid of other people, and I'm starting to get really worried about him.
18:57I just feel like you're not really into it.
18:59Like, we're trying to plan our wedding here, like, you don't even care.
19:02Yeah, I just didn't see our first day of being out looking for tuxedos and stuff.
19:08I don't identify with this prison or inmate situation anymore.
19:13Like, that life is over.
19:15He needs to care more about me and this wedding, and I need him on board.
19:21I thought this would just be something fun we would do, but...
19:24Yeah, you don't have to be annoyed about it.
19:25It's just what I can do, and that's it.
19:27You just don't seem to care.
19:29Oh, let's just go.
19:30There's the last thing I want to be doing right now.
19:34The fact that I just got out and she keeps pushing all this wedding stuff on me is starting to piss me off.
19:39Being on parole is kind of like walking on eggshells because the slightest thing could send you back.
20:02I stayed out all night.
20:04Jonna feels very betrayed.
20:06I feel like after being in prison for six and a half years, I'm kind of torn because I have this amazing woman that's been by my side all these years.
20:14But on the other hand, I never really got a chance to live life, so I'm at a tough spot.
20:21What brings you in today except for probably the obvious?
20:25I need some jewelry. I need engagement.
20:29All right. So, first of all, I'd like to get to know your girlfriend slash fiancee.
20:35Why don't you tell me something about her?
20:37A handful.
20:38She's a great woman. She's a very beautiful young lady.
20:42She's everything in one.
20:44Why don't you tell me how you guys met?
20:46We're always interested in the love story because we're in the love business here.
20:49Out of nowhere, she kind of popped up on me one day.
20:53And then, love at first sight?
20:56I'm going to tell you, it's kind of, it's crazy.
20:58I was, uh, actually, I was in prison.
21:03She actually wrote me out of nowhere.
21:05And she wrote me for, you know, months and months.
21:07And then one day I asked her if she wanted to come see me.
21:10And she came to see me.
21:11And she never stopped.
21:13You know, I've been doing this for 35 years.
21:15And just when I heard it all, this is a great story.
21:19Thank you for sharing that. I appreciate that.
21:21Thank you very much.
21:22Okay.
21:23All right.
21:24Take a peek.
21:25Okay.
21:26I kind of like that one right there in the front.
21:27Okay.
21:28So this is a part of our signature collection of rings.
21:31It has a third of a carat diamonds down the side.
21:35That's beautiful.
21:36It's gorgeous, right?
21:38Um, $1,295 for a quality ring.
21:42Then we're going to choose the actual diamond at your price point.
21:45This is without the diamond, of course.
21:47Okay.
21:48Okay.
21:49Great prices.
21:50But yes.
21:51Yes.
21:52You do need to incorporate the diamond into the middle.
21:53That's a big part of it, huh?
21:54Yes.
21:55All right.
21:56Absolutely.
21:57Okay.
21:58First, I'd like you to hold that.
22:00This is a 91 point stone.
22:01So this is just shy of one carat.
22:04Jonna has made it very clear to me that she expects a one carat diamond ring and she won't
22:09accept anything less.
22:10But I'm a server at a restaurant with car payments to me.
22:13What's the price on that?
22:14It's $2,825.
22:15All right.
22:161.01.
22:17Just over.
22:18Just over.
22:19Then the big bad boy, as we say.
22:20Yeah, exactly.
22:21You know, the lady's dream and the guy's nightmare, the one carat, is $79.95.
22:32Oh, my goodness.
22:33$79.95.
22:34Oh, my gosh.
22:35I know.
22:36And like I said, I'm happy with that.
22:38.9.
22:39Right.
22:40You know, if it looks nice and it has a nice setting, I'm happy with it, you know.
22:44Even with all the money I put up for my tips and the money I borrowed from my dad, I still
22:49can't give the rings to always wanting.
22:51Who says you can't put a price tag on what?
22:54I really just want to win it back after this fight.
22:59I think I know exactly what I want to go ahead and do.
23:02Okay.
23:03Well, if it's not going to be today.
23:04Yeah, it would probably, I'd have to get my finances in order.
23:07Sure.
23:08But I definitely, I definitely know what I want.
23:11All right.
23:12Thank you very much.
23:13You're very welcome.
23:14I don't want to be the bearer of bad news.
23:17I have to be honest with you and tell you exactly what she's looking at.
23:20When you're dating a prisoner and you get a call from the lawyer, it's not a good feeling.
23:24Allah is wondering whether she doesn't feel well because she's pregnant.
23:27Wouldn't you want to introduce me to your family before you want to have a baby?
23:32Then let's end this.
23:33What the are we doing here?
23:34I decided to surprise Dominic with a little visit to the tuxedo shop.
23:51My surprise didn't really work out in my favor.
23:56You know, he's kind of giving me the cold shoulder and I'm not, I'm not feeling it.
24:04So what's like going on with you?
24:08I just don't want to get in trouble because of all my restrictions and I don't think you get it.
24:14No, I definitely like get it and I understand where you're coming from.
24:18Just, I don't know, I've been like dreaming about this wedding and it's the only thing that's kind of been keeping me happy while you've been gone.
24:27And the dream that we'll actually get married one day.
24:30I just, I do understand you have restrictions and I don't want you to get in trouble, but.
24:34Yeah, it's too much all at once.
24:39Mary expects too much too fast sometimes and doesn't realize that I've been gone for years and it's just overwhelming.
24:48So what does this mean then in terms of when we can actually get married with all your restrictions?
24:53I don't know, whenever I can leave the halfway house.
24:56So you think that would be like a couple months or?
24:58Probably longer, at least probably a year.
25:04I just feel like I've been waiting a really long time for you and this is just another thing added to it and it's like not even worth it waiting this point.
25:14If you're saying that to me, I just would rather just walk away, you know, it's just annoying the out of me.
25:23I can't do anything about it.
25:24So if that's how it is, then I just say it.
25:28When Dominic got out of prison, my expectation was we would get married, have a family.
25:34All right, let's go.
25:35But I'm starting to think that it doesn't seem like it's going to, you know, go that direction.
25:42So do you need help walking out of the .
25:44I don't know. I don't really want you to help.
25:46All right.
25:49Like, heaven forbid, you have to touch my arm.
25:52Shut up.
25:53Mary keeps talking about the wedding nonstop.
25:55It drives me crazy because right now my priority is to still just show that I can be in society as a normal person.
26:04I'm already stressed out enough about all this .
26:06He's not even affectionate at all to me and you're like, no, that's just how I am.
26:11Dominic used to be excited to see me and was more affectionate before he went to prison.
26:16And I just don't even think that he wants to get married.
26:19That is how I am.
26:20You're not overwhelmed. Chill out.
26:22Giving someone a hug is not overwhelming.
26:24I don't care about that.
26:25That's what you're doing.
26:26You're just like a board.
26:27If I touch you, you're like stiff like a board.
26:30I didn't wait for someone that won't even .
26:32Still hasn't done one thing nice for me.
26:35You could have gone to the store and got me flowers.
26:37You could have got me a card.
26:38How would I do?
26:39Okay, you need to shut the up.
26:41You don't get nothing until you're not a delusional bitch.
26:43No, you're just a who's not nice.
26:50She doesn't get that it's really overwhelming and I don't want to do a lot of the things yet that she wants me to.
26:55Dominic is making me feel bad about myself.
26:59He's making me feel like I wasted my time.
27:02I would do like anything for him.
27:04And, you know, now he doesn't really seem to care at all.
27:08I mean, maybe he's changed.
27:11Hi, welcome to Bufino's 2.
27:25Right this way.
27:26I thought maybe it might be good for Allah to get back into modeling.
27:29So I called around and I set up an appointment for Allah with a talent agent and a modeling agency.
27:35But she's not feeling too hot.
27:37And she is wondering whether maybe she doesn't feel well because she's pregnant.
27:42How are you feeling?
27:45It's scaring me a lot.
27:47The lady at the gas station, the receptionist, she's like the tenth person that asked me,
27:55Oh, maybe you're pregnant.
27:57And I had to get a pregnancy test.
27:59Do you really think I might be pregnant?
28:08Yeah, I think there's a good chance.
28:14It's too early to take a pregnancy test, but I want to see.
28:18At least it'll make me feel better if it says negative, because if it says positive-
28:23It'll make you feel better if you're not pregnant?
28:26Well, what do you think, James?
28:28I don't know. Like, how do you feel?
28:29It's exciting.
28:31You don't think so?
28:33Yeah, it could be exciting.
28:34I just, it's more scary than anything and I can't help but notice.
28:38I'm not as much a part of your life authentically and genuinely.
28:45I don't even know your family, you know?
28:48It's just kind of scary.
28:51James decided not to tell his family about how exactly we met, which actually had a really
28:57huge effect on me.
28:59Wouldn't you want to have me in your life and meet me or introduce me to your family a little
29:04bit before you want to have a baby?
29:08Like, it's just kind of-
29:10So why do you think I say that?
29:11You think it's just something to placate you?
29:13You answer questions with questions all the time and it's this tactic.
29:17Like, I don't know, you cannot a .
29:20Right now-
29:21You've told me so many times that you can't wait to be a mother.
29:23Yeah, I know.
29:24You want to have kids.
29:25Yeah, I just never met anyone that I could see myself doing that with.
29:30Things that are going through my head is maybe she's stressed, maybe she's overwhelmed, maybe she's pregnant.
29:35I feel kind of bad.
29:36I'm here and I just want to be here for her.
29:38I've never done this before, so it's not funny to me.
29:41It's not something I particularly want to make jokes about.
29:43So, and like, I've been so stressed out.
29:49I've been such a wreck this week and I can't deal with all that and then have this.
29:57Um, this is not what I wanted for myself.
30:00So what if it's positive?
30:03If it's positive, I'm going to be way more scared.
30:09You think that I was nervous about that modeling thing?
30:16Hell no.
30:17I wasn't afraid of that at all.
30:19What I am afraid of is while I'm sick and if I'm pregnant, I'm going to change.
30:27I'm hot and gross.
30:29I was sick.
30:30So I'm going to go to the bathroom.
30:32I'm going to take this test.
30:37Yay.
30:49Happy, concerned, worried.
30:55There's a flood of emotions going through me.
30:59The seconds are going by and they seem like hours.
31:02And, you know, you want to know, like, what the is going on?
31:06Being a father and to be able to share that with somebody, I think, is one of the most intimate things.
31:13So for me, it just got real.
31:16All right.
31:21Yay.
31:22So last night, he tells me he might have a drink.
31:26And first of all, I don't like him going out and I don't like his friends, but I'm trying to be, like, cool about it.
31:33Three o'clock rolls around.
31:34I'm like, seriously, where are you?
31:36And he's like, oh, we're at a strip club.
31:39Why does he go to the strip club so much?
31:41I honestly would rather him be there than, like, where girls are looking for hookups.
31:45They're not, like, trying to look for their husband.
31:47And if they are, they're going for a sugar daddy, not Garrett.
31:49Like, he's like, oh, yeah, I just got my ankle monitor off trying to hang out.
31:53Like, no.
31:54So he never came home last night.
31:56Oh, my God.
31:57I was like, I don't want to be with you.
31:59I just told him, you already ruined my birthday.
32:01So you have to work really hard to, like, make it better.
32:05Make it better.
32:06And I don't know what he could do.
32:07I would have lost my .
32:08And let me tell you, he's not getting any sex.
32:10Yeah.
32:11You know, we always talk about getting married and stuff.
32:13But, like, if he keeps it up, it'll lose me.
32:16I don't know.
32:17I don't know.
32:18I don't know.
32:19I don't know.
32:20I don't know.
32:21I don't know.
32:22Al has been in the washroom taking a pregnancy test.
32:25And it's a complete possibility because, you know, we're doing what adults do.
32:33And, you know, probably not taking all the precautions that, you know, we should because
32:39we're a young couple in love.
32:42Hey, how'd it go?
32:48Keeping me in suspense.
32:54What happened?
32:59Does everything have to be, like, right away?
33:02Jimmy's...
33:03Jimmy wants this.
33:04You literally just went to take a pregnancy test.
33:06I know.
33:07You can't tell me what the results are?
33:08Of course I can.
33:09Why do you have to pressure me?
33:10I'm the one who took it.
33:12I understand that.
33:13Right, so can you give me a second?
33:17For what?
33:20James?
33:21Okay.
33:22Just give me a second.
33:23Is it, is it, is it, you're spoiled?
33:26Or is it like a marine thing?
33:28I don't know how you were raised, but, like, what is it?
33:31Does it make you feel better to say that?
33:33No, no, not at all.
33:34What does that have to do with you taking a pregnancy test at all?
33:36That is absolutely nothing.
33:37Your attitude.
33:38My attitude.
33:39Yeah.
33:40I just want to know what the results are.
33:42I just want to know what it says so that we can, you know, figure this out together.
33:47You know, because I'm here to support.
33:49I'm not the enemy.
33:51Babe, you literally just took a pregnancy test.
33:53I know, I did.
33:53You won't tell me what happened.
33:54I will tell you.
33:56My thought is that there must be something on that pregnancy test that's making her act the way that she is.
34:02Can't you just say whether it's positive or it's negative?
34:04It, it says it's negative.
34:06Okay.
34:07Is it so hard?
34:08No, it's not hard at all.
34:10Was it, was that so hard to wait?
34:11Three seconds?
34:13I'm not.
34:14I don't know if it's like the thought of you maybe being pregnant that's really with you.
34:17You have a really hard time looking at yourself and you get, you get so upset when I do.
34:22I think you need to take a look in the mirror and look at yourself.
34:25Wait, so you keep, you're literally using my words and turning them towards me.
34:30I feel a little bit disappointed.
34:32I'm angry, you know, because I don't, I don't like just getting, you know, blindsided for no reason.
34:39Allah's demeanor is definitely, um, different.
34:42But I don't know why and I'm not, I'm not sure what to make of it.
34:47I'm telling you.
34:47Find your own material.
34:48You need to look in the mirror.
34:49Find your own material.
34:51This is ridiculous.
34:52Then let's end this.
34:53What the f*** are we doing here then?
34:54What's the point?
35:09Because he's been in prison now for over eight years.
35:12We are engaged.
35:14But now, I don't know why she's getting up.
35:18You here to pick up, sir?
35:19Elizabeth?
35:20She's in my mirror.
35:21Well, sir, she's not going to be.
35:26Damn it.
35:27F***.
35:40I'm thinking right now, I've been scanned.
35:43But Aaron, our lawyer, called me because I paid for legal fees.
35:48Aaron wants me to drive over there and talk to him.
35:51About the release.
35:53But when you're dating a prisoner and you get a call from the lawyer, it's not a good feeling.
35:59It raises a hair on the back of your neck.
36:03How's it going, Aaron?
36:04Hey, how you doing, Scott?
36:08As much as I don't want to be the bearer of bad news, I have to be honest with you and tell you exactly what she's looking at.
36:14Okay.
36:16Okay?
36:17Understandable.
36:17All right.
36:19She's not getting out next week.
36:23She's been allegedly caught with some amount of possession of heroin, some amount of possession of methamphetamine, and a cellular telephone.
36:32Okay.
36:33I'll be honest.
36:40I buy her the cell phone in prison.
36:42Once every six months, maybe she might get caught with it.
36:45And they take it away, and I buy her a new one because that's what made her happy.
36:49But now, I feel horrible.
36:52The heroin, that's a different story.
36:55Sometimes I just don't know about her.
36:57It's almost like she's screwing it up to stay in there.
36:59I don't know.
37:00I'm, I'm, I'm shocked.
37:04Um, what's the best you can get her?
37:12Of course, any best scenario would be a dismissal.
37:16Yeah.
37:18That's not going to happen, is it?
37:19No.
37:20Okay.
37:21Not with these charges.
37:24Lizzie's charges are very serious.
37:27Drugs and cell phones are a rampant problem in the California prison system.
37:32What's the worst?
37:34Um, that she have to do approximately 12 years.
37:37When Erin tells me she could be facing up to 12 years, I don't know what to think.
37:43I mean, my whole world's just crumbling around me.
37:47I mean, two and a half years?
37:49You know, it's, it's not that I put in two and a half years.
37:51It's, I love the woman.
37:53I, I cannot see her spend another day in prison.
37:57I really can't.
37:59It's kind of a tough thing to say.
38:00I get it.
38:01Uh, because I know you guys have a relationship.
38:03I know you guys love each other.
38:04But even though she's my client, I'm kind of worried about both of you guys.
38:07Because 12 years, being incarcerated further, can take a toll on the relationship.
38:14I mean, I'm stunned.
38:15It's, uh, it's some heartbreaking news.
38:19And, uh, it can shock anyone.
38:21Okay.
38:24I know you're gonna do your best.
38:26Of course I'm gonna do my best.
38:28Okay.
38:28Um, have you spoken to her?
38:30I haven't had a chance to speak to her yet.
38:32Okay.
38:32So she doesn't know.
38:35If you haven't told her and you're just now finding out, I'm sure she doesn't know the,
38:38the gravity of the situation.
38:40It's hard being alone.
38:41I don't want to be alone no more.
38:43And Lizzie doesn't know.
38:44She could face up to 12 years.
38:46She will be devastated.
38:47And now, I feel responsible for this charge.
38:52And I'm gonna have to tell her.
38:54I'm gonna give her the bad news.
39:00Well, it is my birthday and it seems like everybody forgot.
39:02The birthday doesn't mean the world revolves around you today.
39:04We'll do what we can to make the world revolves around you.
39:11That should mean that people are nice.
39:13You're tripping.
39:15After this fight with Garrett, I feel like I don't even know where we stand.
39:20I feel like he's not really the person that he said he was gonna be.
39:26And his priorities are all out of whack.
39:29And I'm just not willing to settle.
39:34I want a beverage.
39:39What do you want?
39:40Scotto.
39:40They don't have a Scotto girl, only shard.
39:42I guess I'm gonna have to do shard.
39:43And probably not the best idea, but let's do it.
39:46Why?
39:46Because I get wild on shard.
39:47Oh my God.
39:49What I'm really looking forward to is drinking a lot and then going to bed.
39:53Because I'm not in the mood to celebrate.
39:58Everybody.
39:59Garrett, thanks for coming.
40:01Especially you.
40:02Cheers, baby.
40:09Happy birthday.
40:11John is still really upset, but I'm hoping she can forgive me for everything.
40:17One, two, three.
40:19Open.
40:21All right, we're doing presents, guys.
40:23We're doing presents.
40:23Oh my God.
40:25Start off with it.
40:25Open it, bud.
40:26What the f*** is this?
40:35I'm thinking, okay, Garrett got me something nice.
40:49I was expecting maybe a new bag or something, and I opened the box and it's a chocolate-covered
40:55strawberry that's all melted.
40:56Like, what the f*** is this?
41:00And I have one more present.
41:03Thank you very much.
41:04Present.
41:04Damn!
41:05Damn!
41:05I didn't even ask for anything, so it's like, girl, you can't even ask for something.
41:15I put all the stops to make sure Jonna has a great birthday tonight.
41:20Double box.
41:22I'm so nervous at this point.
41:25All right.
41:26I feel like these are just a bunch of big boxes with little boxes.
41:31Oh my goodness.
41:33More boxes, baby.
41:41Baby.
41:41I love you more than anything in the world.
41:49You've been there for me since day one.
41:51I want you to be there for me for the rest of my life.
41:54Remember?
41:54Yeah.
41:58Yeah.
42:01Yay!
42:09Even though I was a b***h all day.
42:11She was.
42:13Were you crying?
42:14Is that why?
42:14That was crying.
42:15He cheered a little.
42:17I feel like a fiancé.
42:19One, two, three.
42:20Go.
42:22My ring is beautiful.
42:23It's everything I ever wanted, and I love him, and I can't wait to spend the rest of my
42:27life with him as long as he acts right.
42:33Yay!
42:36Next on Love After Lockup.
42:38I'm done with this b***h.
42:41My dad has me second guessing whether or not Garrett really loves me.
42:45So y'all know Lamar was supposed to come here this week.
42:48I'm not too hyped about Lamar.
42:50He was in prison for a long time, so it's going to be awkward.
42:54He put that ring on your finger, and it doesn't just end there.
42:57I've just been wondering, like, why did you ask me to marry you?
43:01Yes!
43:03Yes!
43:03If he can't come here, we can't get married.
43:07Oh!
43:09We'll be here.
43:10Oh!
43:10Oh!
43:11Oh!
43:11Oh!
43:14Oh!
43:16Oh!
43:17Oh!
43:18Oh!
43:18Oh!
43:19Oh!
43:20Oh!
43:22Oh!
43:22Oh!
