What I would love to do is continue to do what
I've been doing, is what I've said
I've wanted to do since 2019.
Thank you, Kimmi. Which would--
With [INAUDIBLE] kids? MELODY: You said what?
- Come on, Martell. - Martel.
[INTERPOSING VOICES]
Why you ain't fought for full custody?
Hey, I did.
At one point you said OK about it.
No, you just told me a month or two ago
that you were going to give me full custody.
Golly.
MELODY: Can I ask you something?
Why did y'all want to do business with Martel?
People ask me all the time, do you think you and Martel
will get back together? You think y'all can get back?
The answer is no.
And it has nothing to do with him cheating on me.
And it has nothing to do with the baby.
It has everything to do with the morals,
and integrity, and the man that I've seen you to be.
That was quick.
[INAUDIBLE]
Yes, sir.
Dad, everything was so quick.
So my question is y'all have seen this too.
Why y'all so dead set on doing business with him?
Look, Mel, all of us had a good working relationship.
If we can eliminate a lot of the BS, we can work well together.
Because we all bring different perspectives to certain things.
Well, people change.
I'll be honest with you guys.
It doesn't take me long to learn a lesson.
Facts. And that's what I'm saying.
Martell is a great business guy.
And Martel has proven himself over time
to be a pretty reliable friend.
But Martell is choosing to lose his cool when it comes
to interacting with Melody.
In the end, it's not going to bode well for him.
Here's what people, I think, don't do.
After they know that this person is this person,
they keep trying to be surprised when that person
is doing what that person does.
It wouldn't be a comeback group meeting without at least
someone arguing.
That's fair.
Mel and Martell usually aren't the ones that are arguing.
It's usually you know one group versus the other group.
But this is new.
This is different.
Y'all were everything to each other, interwoven completely.
So why am I OK?
Because I'm OK.
You know why? MELODY: Why?
Because you're winning.
Had your ass been losing, you wouldn't
be in such a great place.
That's how life is, OK?
[PHONE VIBRATING]
Hello?
MARTELL: Hey, Mel.
You need to talk to Mariah.
She's over there crying really bad.
What's wrong?
MARTELL: I don't know.
Something about-- [INAUDIBLE] to you.
Yeah, you can-- yeah, bring her back up here.
MARTELL: I'm about to be pulling in now.
OK, all right.
I guess this is a wrap.
Yeah, yeah, that's a wrap.
Yeah, I got to go.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Mariah, what's wrong?
[CHILD SCREAMING]
What's the matter?
Come on.
Come on, come inside with me.
Come to my office.
Come on.
MARTELL: When I left, Mariah, she was crying.
And I'm like, what's wrong, sweetheart?
And she had mentioned that the office
used to be yours and mommy's.
And now it's just mommy's.
You know, she's our first.
So she remembers everything.
And when she hurts, I hurt.
I want us in a better place.
I want us all to be in a better place.
This is the co-parenting, this is the--
Yeah, I know. That's why I walked out.
Yeah.
I wanted to go home in peace, with the kids.
- Right. - With the kids.
Well, you stirred it up real good before you
got to the peace part. - Yeah.
That's what I'm saying.
I know I shouldn't hit below the belt.
But, you know, when certain things come at me,
it's like I got to fight back a little bit.
Look at me, OK, for real.
Internalize this, please.
Stop putting this [BLEEP] out there.
Martell--
Look, I know, you're right.
This is a life-- you see what's in the car right here?
This is a lifelong battle.
MARTELL: Right.
You don't get this back.
MARTELL: Right.
And you're going to be explaining the same exact story
when you're 50 and when you're 60 to your kids, who are old.
Stop it.
MARTELL: Yeah, I understand.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
SINGER: (SINGING) We all have ghosts that come and find us.
- All right, bro. - All right, man.
- All right, man. - I appreciate it like always.
I definitely feel embarrassed that we're
continuing to display we can't control ourselves
or something like that.
You know, stop taking daggers at each other.
And I feel that it has to come to an end.
We have four children.
And it's like, we're going to be each other's lives
for the rest of our lives.
So I think that we have to take a different approach,
a more respectable approach, a more loving approach.
Yeah, we have to.
OK, sweetheart.
[DEEP SIGH]
We love our babies.
Both of us love our children.
And I want them to know that we, as parents, we're
here to hear you out.
We're here to support you and offer
you love and encouragement.
Because that's what we want to do.
Because at the end of the day, the kids are the most important
thing-- most important.
Where y'all about to go?
Home.
OK, I'll call you when I leave here.
