90 Day Fiance--"Where Truth Lies" summary s6e10


Previously on “90 Day Fiance”: Natalie came to Ashley's house to yell about how terrible Jay is. Ashley was not having it, because she says Natalie just wants attention and can't take a hint. Ashley and Jay headed to Vegas, where they had a minor argument about how much sex they should be having, a discussion they should probably have had three months ago. Larissa said she was going to be “sweet” so Colt wouldn't kick her out, and she sort of was but not really. Colt accepted her apology though. They went out with some friends and when Larissa whined about attention Colt rolled his eyes and they had a fight about it. Real healthy relationship. Steven's stupid ass got his son's passport taken care of, but he was very matter-of-fact about how he plans to take his son with him to America if Olga's visa isn't ready by the time he has to leave. Because how dare Olga keep him from his son's life, because it's obviously not his fault her visa isn't ready. Oops, spoiler! Kalani and Asuelu discovered she was pregnant, because they weren't using protection, and Kalani freaked out about how her life was ruined and took zero responsibility for this happening. Then Asuelu said some romantic things and suddenly she's sure she wants to get married. Eric decided that Tasha needed to move out, and this is hard but it's what is best for Tasha. He said Leida will leave the US if she's not happy, but Tasha won't, so he has to please Leida. Tania (Eric's ex) spoke to Leida, and Leida basically said she wasn't changing her mind and she didn't care if none of the kids came to the wedding. Jonathan went to meet his friend for drinks, and while there, Fernanda blew up his phone. When he got home, she was very upset he ignored her, because she was having a bad night and he was ignoring her. It sounds like she felt really lonely, or possibly was having a bad night mental health-wise, and Jonathan is all she has. At the same time, Jonathan felt he couldn't go out for an hour without her demanding attention, and she spends hours on the phone, not talking to him. They fought about his “sacrifices” and left things in a bad spot.(click for more)


10 days left for Leida and Eric. Eric says he “doesn't feel good about it”. I'm not sure what “it” is. Eric says that he needed to get Tasha out of the apartment to please Leida. Now all the girls are backing Tasha up and taking her side. Eric meets the three of them for dinner, and says that if he doesn't marry Leida, he'll be alone and he hopes they don't want that for him. I am sure they don't want him to be alone, but they certainly don't want him with Leida. The producers ask the youngest outside if she knows what is going on, and I am pretty sure she's like, 11, so she gets it. She knows it's because Tasha and Leida had a stupid argument about how Leida hates mess. She also clearly is taking Tasha's side in the argument, because hating mess doesn't mean you have to go on a rampage and kick people out. Tasha spits at Eric that she has a place to stay, no thanks to him, but she doesn't know how long she can stay there. She's in a house with eight people. Eric tries to say he's sorry it had to happen, but you can hear the “but” already, so Tasha interrupts him to say he doesn't seem sorry about it. In her mind, Eric is the one who actually kicked her out. Eric tries to argue that she knew she was going to have to move out, she knew Leida and Alless were coming. But does that justify how Leida treated her, and that Eric “threw [her] to the street”? Eric gives up arguing, trying to say “what's done is done” and then also claiming he had no control over how it played out. But the oldest daughter knows that he could have tried to prevent the whole thing, instead of just playing clean-up afterwards. Tasha's still hung up on how Eric has been telling them he can't take his daughters' side in anything because Leida will blow up. He admits this is true, but argues that Tasha forced him to choose. No, Leida forced you to choose. “Because she's so petty that a room that didn't meet her standards meant she had to go home to her own fucking country.” True. Eric wants Tasha to take it easy, but she just responds that he's choosing Leida over his daughters. Eric interviews that Leida is his last shot at love, and he spent 20 years making decisions for the kids, and now he needs to do it for himself. OK, yes, that's not a horrible argument. Except for the part where Tasha is right, he's taking Leida's side over them. Make decisions for yourself and not your kids, but you have to also understand that your kids may not like that. You can't have it both ways all the time. Anyway, Eric claims this is complicated but he's not forcing his kids out of his life and he really wants them at the wedding. He wants to get this settled before then. But they don't want to go to the wedding. Tasha especially, because in her mind if she goes, it means she's giving Leida permission to be a bitch all the time, because there are no consequences and Tasha will still show up. Eric asks her to at least reconsider, for him, but I doubt that will happen. I'm not sure what the other two are doing. Eric thinks they just need to be rational and they'll show up.

Time for Steven's stupid ass. Oh, no, he's not here right now. Olga is visiting her friend Anna from before. She reminds us that Steven wants to take the baby, and who knows how long her visa would take. Olga is glad her baby has American citizenship, but it's not right for Steven to take the baby. Olga fills Anna in about everything, and how she's afraid she'll never get a visa, and Steven will be able to take the baby and leave her here alone. How is Steven going to work and take care of the baby? He's too small to be without his mother? Olga says every time she brings it up they fight, which she is also worried about. Anna doesn't trust him, as she shouldn't. Did he even apply for a visa at all? Good point. Olga looks shocked, and then admits she's never seen any papers, Steven just told her he did it. Anna thinks it's Steven's responsibility to find out if she can have a visa or not, I guess because he's the sponsor? Olga kept asking him and he would just tell her not to worry. So now Olga is worried that she'll never get a visa, that maybe Steven didn't even apply, and he just came here for the baby. I just have to say, during this whole scene, Olga and Anna are making salad, and then eating it without dressing, and it totally feels like they told them they couldn't just hang out, they had to do something. Also the baby is not there.

2 days left for Kalani and Asuelu. They drive back to California for the wedding. Kalani claims it's taken the whole 90 days to decide to get married, because she's left out the part where it was all her indecision and waffling. They're at another Airbnb. Kalani knows the wedding is going to be on a boat, but since she's procrastinated so much she has to do basically everything else in a couple of days. She of course blames this on not knowing if she wants to get married, not her avoidance of anything difficult. She claims to be happy to marry him, but she also is not acting happy. She also hasn't told her family she's pregnant (except for her mom). She told her mom it was because they'd be disappointed in her, but she tells Asuelu it's because they'll think he got her pregnant on purpose so she'd have to marry him. Again, I get that the breastfeeding complicates some kinds of birth control but don't act like you had zero say in having unprotected sex. Asuelu is worried about the family, and in confessional he basically parrots what Kalani is saying, that her family doesn't like him and when they find out she's pregnant they'll assume he did it to stay here. Is no one going to hold Kalani accountable for her part in getting pregnant? Come on. Kalani doesn't want to ruin the wedding by telling her family.

20 days left for Jonathan and Fernanda. They spent the night in separate rooms and Jonathan says he hasn't spoken to her since yesterday. He feels he's given her “every piece of me”. I noticed on the flashback footage they conveniently left out the part of the fight where Jonathan threw all the money he's spent in her face. Fernanda went for a walk, because they probably needed to be alone for a minute. She gets back home and they don't immediately start fighting again. Fernanda interviews that Jonathan stayed out 45 minutes later than he said he was going to, and he cannot do that. I agree that at some point in the 10 texts or whatever that he could have explained himself, but I don't really agree with how this is unacceptable. Shit happens, you know? I don't know. Fernanda says this is the last straw. Specifically, this is the drop of water that made the glass overflow.

So they sit on the couch, and she says she wrote him a letter, because she doesn't want to get too emotional and screw up what she wants to say. Jonathan is worried because that's not like her. The letter says that she knows that every relationship has problems, and she knows this is hard for Jonathan too. She doesn't want to give him the worst of her. She's sorry, because the way she showed her feelings was wrong, but she wanted him to see it her way. She just wanted to know she's not alone. In confessional, Fernanda tells us that sometimes, apologizing doesn't mean you lost, because if he wins, then she wins. Jonathan says he understands why she's upset, he really does. It's terrible she feels alone here, because he feels her happiness is her responsibility. He's never had to support someone else and think about another person's emotions, and he's sorry too. Fernanda interviews that respect is so important, and that's why when Jonathan fucks up she makes a huge deal about it, because he needs to understand that can't happen again. They negotiate about his coming home. Well, I thought they were going to, but Fernanda demands that if she says “I need you, come home” that he drops everything and comes home. Jonathan tries to ask if it's OK if he tells her where he is, but no, he has to come home immediately, and then he agrees. I don't think I agree? Because she's demanding all the power here? But I guess that's between the two of them. Fernanda (in the dual interview) claims she has a selective memory and only wants to keep the good moments. Uh huh. But I think they both are glad to have had this conversation. They still want to get married. Even though they both admit to being crazy. See, I think they're in a good spot.

Wedding day for Jay and Ashley. Jay grabs his tux and heads out to the venue. Ashley will meet him there Jay thinks he's ready to get married. He interviews a lot about being with someone you love, and then being tied down. They don't have time to make everything perfect between the two of them, because 90 days is not long enough. But he's come too far to turn back now. Meanwhile Ashley has hired hair and makeup people. She's actually taking this step that she's bailed on twice. Now we are back to “Ashley runs from engagements”. It's not what she dreamed of, so there's some sadness. She doesn't have anyone to help her get ready, and this sucks. I mean you could have had your friends come to Vegas, but sure. Jay has “given [her] some moments” to make her doubt how faithful he is. But these moments make the relationship “real” and I guess reinforce how much she wants to get married. Her dress is pretty, but I think it's like secretly a crop top? Ashley takes a limo to the venue.

Jay is at the chapel, and he says that he doesn't think anyone is ready to get married unless they're like, 50. Ashley “tamed” him and made him want to get married. She's still harping on how she's alone, and this isn't want she wanted, but sure. Her, Jay,...and Elvis. Listen, when we went to Vegas this summer, some random guy asked if Kmanpat and I were married (lol) and then said we could go to some chapel and get married by a dolphin. And once we kept walking I said “fuck that, if I'm getting married in Vegas it's Elvis or nothing”. So I appreciate this a lot. Ashley opens the door and kind of peeks in, and Jay doesn't grin or do anything really animated, but I think he's about to cry. Ashley won't even really look at him, because I think she's still pissed about being alone. Hilariously the Elvis is still doing his thing even though no one is there but the two of them and the camera crew. The vows include Elvis lyrics because of course. OK...maybe that would be a problem. Ashley finally interviews that she's excited to get married. Jay tells us in the dual interview that all he knows is Jamaica, and it's a big deal to give up all he's ever known for her, but he will. And now they're married! They ride back in the limo, and Ashley still looks like she's very unhappy.

9 days left for Colt and Larissa. Colt claims it's been difficult for him, personally, as if it's not difficult for anyone else. But supposedly the past three days have been much better so he thinks everything is fine now, because he's an idiot. But of course Larissa and Mom haven't spoken for weeks, not since the barbecue. But since the wedding is happening soon, Colt needs his mom and Larissa to reconcile. Colt tells Mom about the dinner with his friends (Larissa has gone upstairs) and he makes it sound like the fight with Larissa was his test to see if she could be more patient. Or maybe it's just his condescending bullshit again. So now after one night he's decided he's making the right decisions and everything is fine. Except for his mom hates Larissa. Mom just starts cleaning, and then says that she doesn't know how to get along with Larissa, because Larissa just fights on everything she says. Larissa said some nasty shit and Mom is not sure she can forgive her. Fair. Colt of course just thought they'd make amends, but I don't think this should all be on Mom's shoulders. Mom agrees, that Larissa needs to apologize before anything happens. Colt just wants to say he loves Larissa and wants to marry her. I mean, he did agree that she needs to apologize, but I think he really thinks he can just say “I want you to get along” and magically everyone will get along. Mom doesn't know about that. In confessional, she whispers, “She's a bitch” which I find hilarious. She's been giving this interview in the living room, but that's the part she doesn't want anyone to hear. Mom's response to Colt's “I love Larissa and want to marry her” is “I don't know if I want her in my family.” Colt claims that breaks his heart, but there is no change in his facial expression or tone of voice. OK, that's not true, because over his interview the shot of him and his Mom looks like he's wiping his eyes. Colt never thought he'd have to choose between his fiance and his mother, because: idiot, and now he's very upset about it. If he can't get Larissa to apologize, then he will have to choose between them. I feel like it's a giant red flag that Larissa hasn't apologized on her own, but of course no one has noticed that.

6 days left for Leida. She takes her son to her makeup trial appointment. She's alone because her family and friends aren't here and Eric's daughters don't like her. Like she would have invited his daughters in the first place. Leida claims not to care that no one would come with her. Leida describes what she wants, and then says that she doesn't even know how to do her own makeup because back in Indonesia she has a whole team of makeup artists and hairstylists to do everything for her. This is accompanied with a light laugh and a smirk, making it clear that she thinks we're all going to be impressed with her nonchalance about having domestic help. The makeup artist is asking her a million questions, which I am sure are prompted. You can't talk while someone is doing your makeup, come on. Leida claims that it's so nice to have someone to talk to, and again tries to blame the daughters for not talking to her. She tells this woman that her first marriage only lasted two years and that was embarrassing. She only took seven days to fall in love with Eric. Uh huh. But she's concerned about his three kids (so many kids) and child support, and he has so much baggage. Maybe she should have found someone without kids. She does doubt her decision, but now all of a sudden “you can't find perfection”. The makeup artist says you can, but everyone has flaws and that's why we love them. I thought she was going to say you can find perfection but everyone's definition of perfection is different, but I'm OK with this too. This poor woman has to be on this dumb show and listen to all of Leida's bitching, but she can't say she disagrees or she'll be out a client and who knows how they'd spin it. Everything she says is very diplomatic. After she says everyone loves people because of their slight flaws, that actually shuts Leida up for a second. Is she ready to get married? Well, this is it, after you get married then everything is different. I find this interesting coming from someone who is divorced already. You know? Leida still has so many doubts, and she almost left. Like, a week ago. She needs six months to make a decision. Leida does admit that Eric has been trying to prove to her that she's his priority, but she's only 50/50 right now. Just make a decision and quit wasting everyone's time.

Kalani is getting married tomorrow. She has an insane list of things to do, but it's time for a mani/pedi with her mom and sister, before her bachelorette party. I was going to say that maybe if you have a million things to do, don't waste time on nails, but I know that's part of the things I do to get ready for events, so. Kalani doesn't feel right with her sister not knowing she's pregnant. Kolini brings up the last fight they had, because of course she does. Kalani says they've talked through things and now she's got the old him back and she's ready to get married. I think Kolini is still pissed but there are a million reasons for her to be annoyed. She also won't tell Kalani the plan for the bachelorette, and then asks if Kalani is going to have one drink tonight. The producers make a giant deal about everyone looking at each other, because of course she's not going to drink, but Kolini is the only person here who doesn't know why. Mom doesn't want Kolini to figure it out on her own, and then get upset, and then ruin the wedding because she didn't have time to process. Turns out the drama is because Kalani is still breastfeeding, so she should either not drink or pump and dump. When Kalani doesn't respond (come on, you have a perfect excuse not to drink!), Kolini just sighs and says “Whatever” in an annoyed tone. Kolini feels her sister isn't excited, but I think she's also taking that personally. Plus I think the “bachelorette party” is just the two of them, which is not really a party? Once Kolini leaves, they discuss if Kalani is uncomfortable about all the talk about drinking, and is she just going to spill the beans tonight anyway? Kalani is worried that she doesn't have the greatest relationship with her sister, and if she does tell her, it'll just be one more thing for Kolini to hate Asuelu for. What if Kolini is so mad at the two of them she refuses to go to the wedding? Kalani knows she can't tell her at the wedding, so it has to be tonight. I mean, it could be afterwards but sure.

I think we actually have to deal with Steven's stupid ass this time. Anna is watching the baby so Steven and Olga can take a walk in the park and have alone time. Olga is worried Steven didn't even apply for her visa at all. Steven sighs that hopefully Olga will be over soon, and she responds that they don't know when she'll get her visa. He basically doesn't respond. Steven interviews that he's been thinking a lot about their relationship, and he wants to sit down and talk some things out, because he has a secret. I find it interesting that Steven suddenly is thinking of Olga, because the Steven we've seen for the past few weeks has only thought of himself. And that Steven wouldn't bother to tell Olga any secrets at all.

Anyway, the secret is that when Steven told her he applied for her visa (he says “last December” but I'm not sure how long ago that was), that was a lie. Had he actually applied for the visa, she would have been in the US a month ago. So all your whining about how shitty Russia is, and it was all your fault? This is not the Steven we've seen at all so I wonder who got through to him. Olga doesn't respond at all. Steven didn't apply for the visa until he got to Russia. I think he starts to give an excuse about why he didn't, but then he just stops and says that he didn't, and “I know that it was very wrong of me.” But he wants to be honest. I don't hear an apology, and “I know it was wrong of me” smells like someone yelled at him and he doesn't truly believe this obvious fact. Olga says he does need to be honest, because she specifically asked him about it. He has “no words” because it was his mistake. I know usually excuses are obnoxious, but I honestly would like to know his logic. Was he always planning to ditch her here? Or is he just an idiot? Eventually Steven does start babbling, and it looks like he's claiming that everything happened so fast, and they didn't know where their relationship was going, so he held off because I guess he wasn't sure he wanted to be with her. But he was convinced he needed to take his child? So was that his initial plan, to not get the visa, but still go to Russia and take the baby? Only apply for the visa if he liked Olga enough? I would rather he was just a complete idiot who thought he needed to be in the country to apply. He of course demands Olga acknowledge his explanation, and she says she's still mad, because why didn't he just say “maybe we need to wait” the first time? Instead of lying? And now his son has citizenship so now what? Steven says he “thought about it”, and he doesn't “want to be an ass”, so the baby should stay for now. Olga breathes a huge sigh of relief and it breaks my heart. Just, to know she was so worried. Steven keeps talking about how it was his mistake and whatever, and I'm even more convinced now that someone yelled at him. He called home and his grandma or the family friend told him he was being an asshole. I just don't see him as self-reflective enough to do a 180 by himself with no prompting. Either that or the embassy told him he can't do it. Steven will miss his son, but it's the right thing to do. He asks Olga to be patient and not give up on him, because he really loves her. And then he actually gets down on one knee with an actual ring to propose. Olga is so giggly that she says she doesn't know which hand to use, and Steven says “Neither do I” and this moment is so nice and Steven isn't an asshole for a brief moment. Steven claims he's very relieved, and this is what they wanted. He promises to be honest with her and keep up on the visa thing. I am glad, it's just weird that out of nowhere, Steven is able to look at his behavior and realize he's been an ass. There has to be outside intervention.

It's the day before Leida and Eric's wedding. They go for a walk in a park, while Leida complains about bugs. Eric doesn't have time to fix things, but he says Leida needs to accept his kids and know they're part of the family. He has to start by telling her she's the priority, but his kids are still part of his immediate family, and this fight bothers him. Leida's reaction is that it wasn't her fault, and Eric promises he doesn't blame her for it. Ugh. You can't take sides and expect everyone to be fine with it. No matter what side you take. Leida bitches that it will take time, so even though Eric wants them to all get along it's not going to happen right away. Eric says it's not always going to be so cut-and-dried, these fights. So Leida's answer to that is “So are you choosing me, right now?” All of Eric's language is how you speak to someone you are trying to kiss up to, because you're terrified of their reaction and tantrums. Because he was afraid of exactly this reaction. Then he asks Leida if it would be a problem if Tasha showed up at the wedding. I don't think this is going to happen, but sure. After Eric says she probably would just sit there and not interact with Leida, Leida just says “Well, I can always leave.” Then fucking leave already. Eric knows this is emotional blackmail, and he claims in interview that he can't get into a marriage with someone who does this. Except she's been doing it this whole time so don't act like this is some boundary you won't cross. Eric threatened to break up with her about the child support, but now suddenly he is telling everyone he can't cross her and he seems willing to piss off his kids. Eric says that once they're married, they're married, so she can't keep threatening to up and leave. She can, you're both divorced so you know how that works. Leida says if Tasha shows up, then she's there, but she's not going to talk to her. Leida then says she's choosing not to go back, she's choosing to stay with Eric. That's not what you said thirty seconds ago. She reminds Eric she's giving up “everything” to be with him, and she expects the same thing, “and you are”. Leida is choosing Eric over her family (the family she bitched about because they were too overbearing), and Eric is choosing her over Tasha. So she thanks him for that, because I guess we're all supposed to forget she just threatened to leave. Leida interviews that so far he's made good on some promises, but of course if this changes she'll leave him. Can't be soon enough, honestly. Leida orders Eric to be happy about being married, and then claims she's not going to leave him. Oh, but that depends on him. If Eric keeps pissing her off, then she'll walk away. So just don't do it. This bitch. Honestly if I were Eric I would have bailed long ago. You can't tell your partner that all your conflicts are all their fault and if they would just do what you want, you'd have a great relationship. Shit doesn't work that way. Eric tries to reason with her, saying that he told her in the beginning that he would make mistakes or say the wrong thing. Leida just says “don't do it” because of course she doesn't have to do any work in this relationship because she's perfect. Eric, my dude, there are worse things than being single. Leida has the gall to tell Eric (in a very condescending tone) that they're in this together. Oh, but the success of the marriage all depends on Eric not pissing you off? Eric still thinks his daughters have to be part of this family, except they don't. I wouldn't.

Larissa and Colt's mother go to get their nails done. Larissa tells us that Colt asked her to make up with his mother. She at least has enough self-awareness to know that if she doesn't make up with Mom then Colt will be against her. Also the pressure will be really hard. Boo hoo. Mom is skeptical but she's willing to try. Larissa asks for natural, but also glitter and a French manicure. The manicurist is very chatty. Larissa admits they have some issues, and the woman working on Mom says that one time she fought with her mother-in-law and then that woman took her out to dinner. Hmm. They get along now, so it's good. Larissa takes this as her cue to thank Mom for coming, and apologize, because some of her behavior is not great. And sometimes she's a bitch. Mom admits she can be a bitch too. Larissa says she regrets some things she did, and this part does seem very sincere. They both regret somethings they have done, but they both want what's best for Colt. Larissa offers that they should be friends. Mom believes the apology and is hoping they've figured out things. He's a momma's boy (Mom answers this before Larissa can do it). Then Mom says she's glad Colt's getting married, because it's about time. She wasn't sure at first, but now she thinks they've worked through their problems, and he loves her. Mom knows Colt is madly in love with Larissa, so she hopes they work it out. Mom offers to always be there for Larissa, and judging from Larissa's expression, she was not expecting that. And I think she's touched. Mom then says she'll move out because they need to just live by themselves, and Larissa immediately says “No! You, you live in the same house.” Oh really. I mean Mom asks her if she really means it and Larissa is kind of like “yeah” but not very excited about it. Larissa tells us that Colt asked her to get along with his mother and since Colt's important to her, then Mom is also important. I wonder what Colt said to her. Just like with Steven, Larissa doesn't seem like a person who would do any kind of self-reflection and change her mind so far that she's interviewing that she has a new family now.

Time for Kalani's “bachelorette party”. This means she's wearing a white dress and a veil. Oh, no, it's an actual party. I was wrong, there's like 8 girls here. Of course we have penis balloons and swizzle sticks and so forth. There is a lot of giggling and discussing the hottest thing about Asuelu (of course his penis because what else would be sexy). Of course Kalani is being super weird because she feels she has to tell her sister she's pregnant at some point. So she decides the best way to do this is when someone asks if she's OK, to tell everyone she's really glad they're all here, and she loves everyone, but she needs to steal her sister away for a second. Subtle.

Kalani thanks her sister for all the decorations because she's having so much fun. And then she just says that she feels bad about how things have been going, and they apparently agreed they'd be honest with each other at some point, and then she admits she has been keeping the secret from her sister that she's pregnant. Kolini says “No, you're not” but then realizes she's serious. Then Kolini starts crying, which forces Kalani to go hug her and apologize. Kalani knows it's disappointing news and bad timing and she didn't want to keep lying. Kolini says she doesn't want to do this and she walks off. Kalani was hoping her sister would just be mad, but she's upset so Kalani feels like she just ruined everything again. I'm not sure why Kolini is making this about her, like, I don't think Kalani being pregnant is a great idea, but it's not like she got pregnant to get back at Kolini or something, you know? Eventually Kolini calms down enough to say that Kalani is a grown ass woman, and then she gets pregnant, when she has a seven month old and Asuelu can't work. Kalani agrees and then Kolini bitches that she's sure Asuelu's stoked because he doesn't get that they have to pay for a baby. OK well whose fault is that then? Who should have explained to him how much things cost in America and gone over a budget? Kolini then sighs that it's always something. As I thought, Kolini is making this about her. No one is asking her for anything, so her crying and being mad about it is unreasonable. If you feel they're irresponsible, then don't give them money or offer free babysitting. But “It's always something” doesn't sound like worry for her sister's finances, it sounds like she resents Kalani for being unwed, being broke, whatever, and she's predicting this new baby will become her problem and she's mad. Kolini walks off and some other girl from the party appears to give her a hug. Kolini whines that this isn't how it's supposed to be, and having “this” happen the day before the wedding is terrible. Fair, but I think we all know that had Kalani waited to tell her she'd be pissed about that. And of course Kolini thinks Asuelu did it on purpose to force Kalani to get married. So even though they went to have girl time, and Kolini planned this party for her sister, she doesn't trust Asuelu and doesn't think she should get married. OK then why did you plan an bachelorette party? Why are you going to be in the wedding? (You know she is.) Don't act like you didn't just change your mind in the last five minutes. Kolini is crying and now the whole party is comforting her in the bathroom, and finding out that Kalani's pregnant, while Kalani stands around at her own party, alone. I know I said that this was a dumb way to do this, but Kalani is the one with the secrets, and not one person has come over to find out how the star of the party is doing. They were all busy comforting her sister.

Kolini deigns to come back and sit with Kalani and I guess talk. Or complain, who knows. Kalani apologizes for making her sister upset. She thinks that every time Kolini is coming around to the idea of Asuelu, something happens to piss her off. OK well why is there so much drama here, you know? Kolini agrees, because is no one going to give Kalani any fucking blame for getting pregnant? Not anything. If you think she had no say in the matter, then go to the police and report him. Kalani can choose to not have sex, and she can insist on having protection, and if she can't do that then you have bigger problems. Like, get the police involved legal problems. But knowing she treats him like he's a child and she's so condescending about how stupid he is, I cannot believe if she said she didn't want to have unprotected sex, that Asuelu would force her to. Not even that he would talk her into it. Kalani says that she is going to marry Asuelu, and she's sorry her sister is upset but hopefully they can enjoy the day tomorrow. Kolini just says “whatever”. You know, if you didn't leave all your important conversations until the night before shit was about to happen, they might be a little more successful. Kolini doesn't want to see Asuelu, and says she's going to remind her sister she can back out. On her wedding day.

Back to Ashley and Jay. A week after the wedding, the cameras are here and there is some “shaky” footage to act like the camera crew has been woken up to drive over here. A producer asks Ashley what's been going on. She says someone was FaceTiming Jay at like, midnight, and it was a girl's name. He claimed it was about a tattoo, which doesn't make sense. Jay kept denying everything so Ashley finally messaged the girl, asking why are you calling my husband at midnight? And the girl responded, who, the Jamaican guy I met on Tinder? The girl then said that Jay never told her he was married, claimed he was visiting family, and wanted to hook up this weekend. Oh, no, I'm so shocked. I hope she tries to go back to Natalie and Natalie just says I FUCKING TOLD YOU SO and blocks her. You had every warning and you chose to ignore all of them. Anyway, Jay's been on Tinder. She confronted Jay, and told him that this girl was sending her screenshots. So he could either come clean, or if they were real he's out on his ass. He apparently admitted to being on Tinder, and then Ashley told him they were done. Then he “punched a hole in the wall”, which is an exaggeration. You can see someone punched the wall but there is no hole. Ashley tells the producer that she doesn't know if Jay actually slept with her, all she knows is he admitted to being on Tinder and talking to people and that's enough. He created the account the day they got home from Vegas. Yikes. Ashley says “Everything that I have done for him? And this is how he treats me?” I mean...what have you done for him? Not that I think he is justified at all. Ashley doesn't know how you can go to bed at night, treating someone so poorly. But you thought he was doing that in Jamaica and you didn't care? Now it's that she did so much for him, but there is no discussion of love. Ashley then says that the signs were there and she ignored them, so ultimately it's her fault. Well at least she knows that. She should have known better. Oh but the story continues because this bitch went straight to Natalie's house. You know, the woman she has been ignoring, who she cut out of her wedding and her life, who she shittalked constantly. Natalie told her she knew it was a matter of time. So “maybe she was right”. Gee, you think?! I really hope that conversation with Natalie came with a million apologies. I still think Natalie should have reminded Ashley she said their relationship was over and shut the door in her face.

Ashley then says she can't even kick Jay out of her house, because she's responsible for him for ten years. She just wants to take back the relationship, because if he was on Tinder this soon, then he's been doing it this whole time. He told Ashley he was bored. Then Jay comes home. He sits on the end table next to Ashley, because I'm sure he knows what's up. He asks if she wants to talk about it.

Next time: Steven leaves without his son, as it should be, Eric's kids may not show up to his wedding, Fernanda is sad her family isn't here, Kalani makes sure not to tell her dad she's pregnant, Colt calls the police on Larissa and the state pressed charges, Jay says he's not going anywhere without the police backing Ashley up. I think next episode is the last one of the season, and then there are two “tell-all” episodes, like reunion episodes. I think I'm going to try to do the two reunion episodes together.
