KIM-BAYA or NAH?! | LAMH Recap with Claudia, Dustin and Dominique Morgen

Reality with the King is hosted by me, Carlos King. I'm an executive producer who have produced some of your favorite shows from the Real Housewives of Atlanta, New Jersey, and my own creation, the Love and Marriage franchise and Bell Collective. Every episode, we recap reality television from the Real Housewives franchise to The Bachelor or Selling Sunset. in addition to celebrity guests, whether in the unscripted space or scripted as well. Dustin is a resident Huntsville historian. And in this episode, Dustin, we were introduced to some new faces.

Yes, we were.

Sylvia and Lynn. For the record, Raindrops, I, Carlos King, am not related to Lynn. We are not related. I didn't see it until y'all posted it. Then I said, I can see what.

Y'all see it.

I did not see it. He's a handsome man, but no, we're not related. But Dustin, Sylvia did a scene as she was eating food and chomping at the bits.

Literally. She was.

That's the whole time. My person.

My person. He was talking like that the whole time. I was like, if she don't swallow that damn food, Sylvia.

Sylvia, I'll see you at the reunion. And I will give you my reality TV 101 rule for all of my stars. If you're at a restaurant scene, make sure you eat after you stop filming. Little advice for you, sis. I love you. I'll see you in a few months.

OK.

Dustin, Sylvia told Destiny that, look, I know Marcel. She's made a comment that got people rattled. I want to hear your thoughts on it. She did say that Marceau is.

There she go, eating and drinking.

She's so pretty, though.

She's gorgeous, might I add. And a good-looking-ass couple. Yeah.

She's fab.

Yeah.

She mentioned that there were rumors, Dustin, that she was the mistress of Tisha Scott's husband, Marceau. and that when she told Marcel, I would like to tell your wife to clear this up, that it's not true, Marcel told her, it's okay, you don't have to, it's all good. And Destiny encouraged her, like, well, I do think, for it not to be weird, you should definitely tell Tisha before someone else does. We'll see what happens when they meet.

But how do you feel about that information and the fact that she said that Marcel is her person.

I would have asked her what she meant by that. And I was surprised Destiny didn't. Destiny just made a face instead of saying, what you mean he's your person? Usually when people say that, they're referring to a romantic partner or like the love of their life, like the one that got away. So what do you mean Marcel is your person? I would have asked that question, but Destiny did not. And I thought it was controversial. And I also thought OK, plus one. You know what I'm saying?

I put a point on the leaderboard for her because that shows a little bit of prowess in the space of being a reality television personality. Like she knew that that was going to be a controversial statement to make and it would not implicate her directly in any wrongdoing. And that was a smart play to me as a reality as talent in the reality space. So it made me want to see more from her. And it also made me want to see what she's got. I was like, okay, this is a new lady and she knows how to play.

She's comfortable in this space. She knows exactly what she's doing by saying that. So let's see what this is. Obviously, I don't think that her and Marcel have any sort of romantic relationship or anything, but it's going to make for a spirited, you know, shake it up ass conversation. And I'm excited for it. So that's what I thought.

Claudia Jordan.

What's that girl's name again with the short hair? Sylvia, listen.

Like Sylvia's soul food that she was eating at that time.

Sylvia, if you think my husband is your person on TV and then said husband doesn't want you to clear it up with me, my antenna is all the way up and give them a contract because I want to know.

I feel like there's something more to it. I really do.

I don't know who calls someone else's man their person without them being their person.

I would never say that about a married man. Never say that about a married man. If anything, you downplay and you make it a fact.

Like if I go to a couple's house, husband, wife, I always make sure, if I know the husband, I make sure to go up to the wife, beeline, introduce myself, disarm her.

Hey, I come in peace. There's no issues with me.

Your first scene, while you're shoving that food in your mouth, which I love a girl that eats, right?

Like, I'm a greedy girl myself.

To say another woman's husband is your person? And Destiny, you gave a face. But I want to know more. We need to delve deeper. There's something to this.

It ain't just this. There's got to be something to this. For real, for real. Not saying they have relations. But maybe there was a... An emotional attachment?

There was something here for you to say, this is my person. I would never be that bold to say that about someone's husband on a reality show with three cameras on me.

Y'all think that's crazy?

And Marceau is the bizarre world Martel, right? I'm seeing their faces, right? Because then it's the light skin.

Okay.

I'm sorry, Carlos, you didn't cue me in, but I.

No, go ahead, baby.

Go ahead.

I can't fathom it's an emotional connection because I've never seen him express emotion. Like, you know what I'm saying?

Like, he.

Not with his wife. And I've watched the show for years. I've never seen him be like... You know what I'm saying? Like, even pretend emotional. Like, the light-skinned guy whose wife had cancer... He'll pretend like he has emotions sometimes. But Marceau, it's very at a deficit. And I always kind of respected it because he came across as, I handle business. I may not be the person that will sit here and hold your hand, but I will build the house. And in regards to that, you lost the house. So then my question is, for Ms. Thing, if you're his person, either you hunched him or you're his confidant, and what feedback did you give him when he was letting the business crumble and the things just dissipate like that? So

either way, you're derelict. And I too want to know more, but she looks fab while she's being messy.

Yeah.

That drink is sickening.

Look at the look with the drink. She's like.

Yeah, it's sickening.

She's warming the kids up.

And the dress was nice. She had a great... Now, I will say this too. Shout out to the producers and the editors over there at Kingdom Rain because her entrance scene, the way she walked into that restaurant and we got a full body shot, that dress, that skin. If you know you're about to come in here and start some shit, that's how you come in here and start some shit. the way that Sylvia walked in. So that made me, it did make me, as a viewer, say, let me see what she talking about. You know what I'm saying? Like, it did make me do that.

See, Arion, take a page out of her book, Arion.

Don't come up here with a dusty ponytail like you about to go drop off some dry cleaning.

And not give a damn. Please, yes.

Oh, God.

She got something up her sleeve, don't she, Sylvia? She do. She do.

She do.

I feel it.

I can't wait.

Look at Carlos. Are you frozen?

I'm not saying anything. Listen, I will say this. I will say this. I really... Obviously, this is the first scene. Not to spoil anything, but I will say... I really enjoy Sylvia Lynn and the dynamic they bring to this show. One thing that Huntsville gets right is every single new cast member that has ever been on this show, these are real friendships. You know what I mean? They have history.

It's the magic of that. So you'll see more of what happens with Sylvia Lynn. One of the next things I want to talk about is a scene with Nell, Kimmy, and Tisha. Listen, we all saw what happened last reunion where Miss Nell and Kimmy had their verbal spat.

101.

Fuck you, bitch. No, fuck you, bitch.

You know, that whole thing that happened. So, Letitia Scott decided to be the force multiplier in this episode and said, my first meeting of the day will be getting Kimmy and Nell to make sure that everything is good. Again, it's not about you, Dustin. What do you think about that? Because, you know, they haven't seen each other since the reunion.

Do you think Nell and Kimmy definitely made a man?

Yeah, because Kimmy don't give a fuck. Nell would still go ahead and be beefed out, you know what I'm saying? But Kimmy don't really give a fuck, and so she's like, whatever, we can piece it up. I've been over it, honestly. I know you don't fuck with me, I don't fuck with you, whatever. That's just what it is. Kimmy is cool about it, and because Nell is going to respond to whatever energy Kimmy brings in this situation. So Nell is very much like, okay, cool, whatever. What got my focus in this scene was a couple things. Number motherfucking one, Letitia Scott, with that hot pink on, you look beautiful.

That hot pink looked gorgeous on Letitia Scott. She looked so pretty in that scene. What also looked pretty in that scene was the offices for Scope. We know that those have been long rumored to be being updated. We've seen the progress being made up until now. The offices look beautiful, right? Also, this is a little bit of off the show information, but I saw a YouTuber who had reposted a live that Marceau did at Scott Manor, right?

We need Carlos and a camera. Y'all gonna have to get down to Scott Manor because when I tell you Scott motherfucking Manor, which for those who don't know is the home for the home, the family home that Marceau and Letitia are currently building. It's under construction right now. Motherfucking gorgeous. When I say gorgeous, gorgeous, this YouTuber even posted The alleged renderings of what it's supposed to look like after it's done. That home is breathtaking. I would love to see what's going on with all. Fuck Whitehall, literally, because they ain't even got it no more, right? I want to know what's going on over at Scott Manor.

We would love a little three-episode spinoff. Carlos, like, condensing the construction down to three episodes. We can, you know, it's palatable for us. Go on and give them the little first love and marriage husband spinoff about Scott Manor. We want to see that house. Second of all, listen. Like I said, I already done said it, I guess.

Kimmy and Nell is dead. You know what I'm saying? Neither one of them is passionate enough about it. Nell has finally realized that she is not in the water. She's on the side of the pool. She's safe. She ain't got to worry about drowning in that pool and Kimmy throwing her in the pool. They're good. You know what I'm saying? I think Tisha, Letitia Scott, mission accomplished.

Claudia Jordan, do you think they can stay cool?

For now.

I found it interesting seeing Letitia Scott in the peacemaker role as the moderator when she still has her issues with Kimmy.

So I was like, okay. It was cool to see her in that role.

It seemed like they're down to kind of put the drama aside, but guess what? They have a new person to all be up against now, so it's actually the perfect time. They can all peace it up and side-eye the mistress.

Oh, girl. They should, though, if I was them.

Mm-hmm.

You know what I mean? I'd be like, all right, let's put our stuff aside.

You know when someone else comes into the chat, like, we don't, our beef has been, come on, we can get past this. Let's be mad at this girl over here, but they ain't challenging her enough. And I know we're going to get to it, but they need to be.

Dominique, more again before we get to the infamous scene between the girls and Arianne.

Yeah, Tisha Scott being a Libra, it's interesting that she moderated the chat, October 1st birthday. And Kimmy and Nell are both Aquarius. Nell being January, Kimmy, February 4th. I think, one, Kimmy being from Baltimore, her coming from the nurse space, I think she is used to, like, deading things.

I think when you look.

At her marriage, she is just either the peacemaker, and I kind of let things go. So, like, that's a cultural thing about her energy, and as someone who's watched the show, but just I wanted to learn more about her. Nell. I will say I like Nell because she will make people get out of character. She's not going to let people on your cast float because there's times when Kimmy should have crashed out that she didn't. So we finally got a little bit of me engaged. I like that from Nell. But I do think it's Squash because I think that it was a kind of a temper flare point.

And I don't think it was that deep. But I do hope that Kimmy continues to. I guess my question is with the show, like we have this new person coming in. Who is the Nene Leakes of this show? And why wouldn't it be Kimmy? You know what I'm saying? Why wouldn't it be Kimmy? Or when would she decide that?

And I think it's going to take you being able to read somebody here and there and step up and gag girls to kind of establish that. If not, Miss Mamas with this poison ivy wig is going to lay all the girls rest.

I feel like if they don't check the mistress, she's trying to be that.

At first.

She definitely is trying to be that for sure. And they are letting her get away with it right now. I'm surprised at the lack of a pushback against this heifer.

That's a good question. You know, it has been, and I do want to ask y'all this.

Shockingly, actually.

Who is, okay. who is the reigning queen bee of love and marriage Huntsville? I'm only asking this because Dominique brought it up, but also, also, also, yes, I definitely love my TikTok reels of people talking about love and marriage Huntsville. And to Dominique's point, especially on TikTok, right, Dominique?

There's a lot of commentary about who's the queen bitch of Huntsville. Is there one, starting with you, Dustin, is there a queen bee of Huntsville If so, who is it and why?

There's two answers to this question, but I'm going to give you one, okay?

Can you text me the other answer?

So there's two answers to this question, but I'm going to give you one. And currently, according to the current standings of the cast rankings, it's motherfucking Destiny Payton, hands down. There's no question about it. Destiny is doing this dolo thing. Destiny has had two great seasons where she has done a literal 180, a total transformation. She turned the beat around on us. She started making sense when she speaks.

She stopped trying to just win arguments all the time and started really offering reflections that were valuable to our opinions on her and what was going on on the show. She started calling shit out when it needed to be called out. Destiny really had an ascension. amongst this cast that I respect as the person who was laughing at her hanging off the door at Madonna. You know what I'm saying? That was me doing that. But I also, I'm going to keep it real. I'm not just going to talk about when she does things that are less than favorable. She's had two great seasons consecutively and she's still keeping it real as we can see. So for me, it's destiny. Okay. Of the current cast right now. It's destiny.

Claudia Jordan.

Nobody but Martel wanted to be him.

I cannot. Okay.

Dominique Morgan.

I already had posted a real saying, honey. I'd have hit him so many times. My God, today. But I agree with Dustin, but I really want to focus on and just reiterate, but it needs to be Kimmy. And I think there's room for her to be that. I think there's room for her to be like the benevolent queen. Like you don't have to be angry and attacking people, but you have the tenure to do it. You have survived.

Your story has like, she is why I started watching that show. When she was going through her cancer treatments, that's why I started watching the show. So she is beloved. People have, you've raised these boys. Like there was a scene, it was a couple of weeks ago when the son was talking to the dad. It was like, I'm afraid of you. You can tell, you know, she does a lot of, she does a lot of work to keep things together. And that is what she does. She just has to step in the front. And live in it.

Stop letting them shoot your scenes when your curls have failed. Because Miss Thing that's new on the show, bitch, she ain't been caught lacking once. Ain't no lace lifting or nothing. Why you got this middle part in your, like, because a part of being the girl that's in charge is being snatched and done anytime I take a screenshot. You feel me? So I just, I want that for Kimmy because I think, I think that in her next journey, and I don't, I think in her next journey, she deserves to have a platform. where people know she's that girl.

And I think that'll give her some of the joy that she deserves to have.

I agree with Dominique. And I actually have always enjoyed Kimmy cussing at people on this show. From season one, I've always thought that. I've always enjoyed Kimmy. And I agree. Kimmy has a great opportunity here without some of the tarnish on her name, right? She has a great opportunity. She lacks some tarnish that other people on the cast have on their name. And she has an opportunity to really emerge here, right? And I would love to see that happen. I agree. And I, let me just stop talking, but I've always loved seeing Kimmy cuts Carlos. You know, I've always loved seeing Kimmy cuts people out always. Cause you know why? Because it doesn't happen all the time and it doesn't happen all the time because she's not

dependent upon her prowess in a conflict. You know what I'm saying? Or to, to, to make, to create value on this cat. She shows up in other ways. And I agree actually 100% with Dominique. I wish Kimmy would step to the front. And right now, she has the best opportunity, probably the greatest opportunity she will ever have to do so because Arianne Curry is on the show.

And so, you know.

Speaking of Arianne.

Arianne, I'm sorry. Is it Arianne or Arianne?

You know what's so funny? It's air. I always think the air part is Arianne, right?

Okay, okay.

This thing like airheads.

Yeah, I don't be wanting to... I can state my opinion on her without disrespecting her name. So that's why I really want to know, like, how.

It's Air.

Like, I would say a lot of other stuff, but let me get her name right.

Yeah, you know what I'm saying? Arianne. Arianne. Yeah, okay. Jesus. I'm out of here, Bob.

Okay, well, Claudia, we're going to start with you. So, Arianne had a meeting with Letitia Scott and Kim... And this one scene made social media not happy. And I want to get your thoughts on it, obviously. So listen, the history of Arianne, when it comes to the dynamic with the ladies, okay, because we kind of got a sense of her dynamic with the.

Guys and Yeah, we did.

Right?

So we kind of know that. Not too much. So one thing that I think the audience desired in this scene was like, all right, you got a lot to say about these women's husbands, whether it was you interviewing the alleged mistress of Marcel Scott, how she said that Maurice was messing with linebackers, you know, women who have big backs. pretty much calling out these ladies' husbands. They met with her. Starting with you, Claudia, a lot of people online felt that these ladies should have had more smoke for Arianne, and they felt that Arianne ran them, so much so that Arianne even said in her confessional she believes the reason why she wasn't welcomed was so much angst is because these ladies do not want to

put her in a position to where she has to tell them things about their husbands. What are your.

Thoughts on that?

Agree.

She 1,000% ran that scene.

She probably came into the scene nervous, like, oh my God, I'm about to be held accountable here, taking a task, checked for my past remarks, and none of it happened. So it was such a letdown. It was like meeting a guy on Raya and y'all talk for months and he's so fine and he talks about how he was in a wear it out, and you finally lay down with them, and he has erectile dysfunction. This scene was erectile dysfunction. There was no payoff.

There was nothing. They cowered to this woman, and they empowered her. Now she thinks, she just got such a battery in her back now. Yeah, that's right. That's what I thought. That's what I thought. She ran her mouth about OGs on this show. They had a chance. They didn't have to cuss her out.

They could have just had a spicy conversation or even just a stern conversation. We can move on, but before we move on, let's get through you saying we linebackers and all this other stuff. Where is all of that? Because when something's uncomfortable, you just want to bury it and just get over it. That's not a way that it gets resolved because all it's going to take is one argument down the road for all to come out.

It's better to just hash it out right now, have a real conversation, as Carlos likes to say, and then move on, because then it would feel more real.

This feels fake.

It feels like putting a Band-Aid on a major wound, and it feels good for a second, but later on, this is going to be a problem later on. This is going to come back to bite them in the ass that they didn't check this girl when they had the opportunity. This is the perfect time when you're not emotionally attached to this person, because it makes it feel like, it makes it seem like, I know as an audience member, damn, she must have got some more stuff up her sleeve, and they're afraid of her saying it on the show.

That's what it gave for me, and I was like, wow, they missed an opportunity to like, put her a check a little bit or just like, you know, hey man, let's have a conversation and then move on.

But it gave, they were scared of her. They empowered her.

But I will say, you know, I got to give some positive notes. This is the best area I looked. I loved her hair. She pulled it together for this scene.

She came ready for the smoke and it never happened.

This is Reality with the King and I'm Carlos King. Let's get back into the show.

First of all, Arianne had on her archival Charlotte Ruth best. 2009, Somebody's Club.

Pretty girl.

I think, let me move with grace, because I made a video today. I said I would not let Arianne around my bacon grease because it's got meat. You understand me?

Never.

But that being said, people do grow. People do evolve. And what I thought, to go off of what Claudia said, If the other cast members had challenged her, it could have been an opportunity for Arianne in real time to demonstrate how she has evolved. Because the waterworks and the tears and talking about what you didn't know We've all seen and learned too much since then. And I don't know if the interview that she did, because I feel like I saw that snippet of them promoting the interview was maybe a couple of months ago. So I'm guessing that happened after this was filmed. But who are you going to be in this community on this show? What's your intention? What is your plan? And you can't be sketchy anymore because you're no longer on. When you were

on the outside, you could kind of pull those stunts and kind of move. But you've chosen to come into the fold. We've chosen to, whether they like it or not, they need to navigate what the journey is. Martel has put her in the position, I think, a part of, she could be more transparent and more vulnerable if she had a good man with her that would protect her and cover her. But she has to hide and protect her while hiding and likely protecting him because there's probably Mige that we don't know about that. And I don't think anybody wants to see them play pity pad. People either want you to get into the things or go home, honey.

Yeah. So a couple. Is it my turn?

Yes.

OK, let's go. So a couple of things. I agree with my sisters, Claudia and Dominique, that. the resolution is premature for sure, right? This nod to, oh, well, let's, you know, have one conversation and move forward is bullshit. Whatever happened to fighting for a whole season? Whatever happened to that? Like, why haven't y'all, and by y'all, I mean Kimmy and Letitia specifically, and Martel and Maurice, why haven't, and, I mean, and Marcel and Maurice, and Martel's at S2, and Arianne, they should all be duking it out for a whole season. I know that sounds toxic and problematic, But we're making a TV show and there has been years worth of egregious actions offline. I saw a video that somebody pulled up the other day where Arianne was

online debating with married women. You know what I'm saying about the nature of her relationship with Martel and whether or not she was at fault for continuing the relationship. It's been those types of games played offline have painted a very clear picture of exactly what's going on here. So I don't understand how these very tepid, very surface level conversations have now inspired a desire to work towards a resolution and move forward, whatever the hell that means.

Because how do you move forward with somebody that's set up on YouTube with a lady with the posturing that she had, I'm not going to call it good or bad, sitting on a stool and in a white room saying that she slept with your husband and his brother in the front and in the back, getting graphic about the details and positions, all of those things, that sort of break in communication or whatever you want to call it, that moment does not get glazed over. I also don't buy this smoking gun notion that people are purporting when it comes to Arian showing up ready for war and Kimmy and Letitia retreating. What more could she say? What more information could she have access to than what they've already done by interviewing that woman on YouTube? What else

can she say? They've already accused Maurice and Marcel of being cheaters. They've already accused, like what is, and Martel in the conversation that we saw at the end of the episode with him and Nell and Chris Fletcher and Arianne out to dinner, and he kept saying, well, they don't want to be exposed. Of what? What's going to come out that y'all haven't already said? So I don't really buy this notion that Kimmy and Letitia are holding back because they're afraid of information being revealed that they'll have to confront. The fans have done that enough. Arianne's done that enough offline. What the fuck else is? What is it? And if you have a smoking gun, put it out. Because this mission to avenge herself, that Arianne

appears to be on this mission to like, Have her say now. You never had a say in the first place because you willfully participated in an extramarital affair. And while people can get past that mistake or that bad decision, because we all make fucking mistakes and bad choices in our own way, it's everything that has happened after that has been really intentional, doubling, tripling, and quadrupling down on certain things that needs to be addressed and can't just be swept under the rug in one insincere conversation. And it's baffling to me. And I just wonder why they won't argue for the season. That's all I don't know.

Why are they not doing that with her? They should be discussing this every time they have a group scene with her. Arianne should not appear to be holding a smoking gun of information. Call it the fuck out and let's get to it because now's the time. That's why everybody's questioning their actions right now and thinking that Arianne has something that she is holding that's powerful.

I think that what is really gagging me in regards to the South and the patriarchy are deeply married. And they just need to get comfortable with the understanding that we all know that cheating is not a deal breaker for these marriages. And if you release that, there likely is no smoking gun unless one of them niggas is getting paid. or something like that. But even with that child, depending on the situation, get your life. I think what is important about the show and why people fall in love is that these characters represent experiences of a lot of people. And so when people are watching that, it's like, as me who was married and my husband cheated on me, I'm sitting in their roles, right? And I'm like, you

should have said this, right? There are the women who have been on the other end because when I posted that video, there were women in the comments saying, well, she met Martel when she was this age and she didn't know. So people have grace and care for her. You didn't evolve your story. You should not be trying to avenge yourself. You did the things. You should be showing that you evolved. You should be showing the woman that you are today. This should be a new introduction.

And so if they had encapsulated this conversation in, y'all ask me everything y'all want to ask me, I'm going to address it. But after this, I'm on a different journey. I'd be like, cool, but that's not what it was. Also, love and marriage Huntsville doesn't betray love. the patriarchal history of the south but it doesn't silence the powerful black women on this show so it also feels incongruent to like these women who we know have opinions about all the things why don't y'all have opinions now and what is behind.

It and men too because we look the onus is not just on kimmy and leticia with this it's also on my my soul and maurice as well Because they were very, it was very, you know, lighthearted at the introduction dinner that Arianne threw for herself. It was very lighthearted, jovial banter, joking and laughing and shit. What's funny, when that woman sat up there, y'all saw that woman. I'm not going to talk about her. I'm not. But y'all saw that woman that sat up there in that video that said that she had a sexual encounter with them in Vegas. I'm not finna be kicking it like that. Allegedly?

With Martel, excuse me, with Marcel allegedly and Maurice allegedly. And I didn't believe not for one second anything that lady said in that video. I knew that it was a stunt, Dominique, you know what I'm saying? But I just, I don't know. To me, we need a real sit down, Carlos. I know you can't tell us. Maybe I'll just text you.

Never mind. Because I don't want to know shit. You didn't even tell me we were getting new people. You ain't told me shit. As a matter of fact, I'm definitely texting you when we get off. Because I didn't even know we had a new couple.

You ain't told me shit. I will say this. So, Dominique, welcome to my world to where because of my shows, I got to preserve my commentary per my contract for the reunion. that I host. Okay. I respect my contract. Thank you very much. No, but I will say this, and I felt comfortable saying this. When I watched that scene for the first time, because obviously I get cuts of the episodes, I, too, admittedly, was surprised by the dynamic in which I saw. And I think that's fair to say. And this is somebody that created the show, was there, you know, day one. Truly doesn't understand it from the standpoint of watching the show. Imagine me having to live through it. And be on the phone calls with these people and understanding the gravity of her. And

her meeting Arianne. I understand the gravity of what that woman has brought to these people's lives, right? I had a front row seat at it. So when I watched the scene, I 1000% was surprised by the level of conversation that occurred. And I remember watching it and saying to myself, because, you know, I'm also a podcast host as well. I also said, this is going to be an interesting topic on Monday Night Live. I already knew.

I knew.

I knew. I knew.

I watched it and said, this is going to be very interesting. And listen, I have a lot of thoughts to this particular.

Meeting.

I have to reserve it for the reunion. But I will give you all this. I think 99.9% of the viewers were surprised by this scene. And I think that's fair to say.

It was disappointing. Like, come on. And it was like a easy win. You know, like it made everybody look weak.

It made everybody look scared of this girl. Made everybody look like, wait, where was all that smoke? Like this is someone that caused major issues and like was running her mouth reckless as hell. And you have this person in front of you in an environment where it's a safe space to talk about it and nothing.

Holy letter off the hook.

That would make anybody question, well, why?

What are y'all afraid of? I get being tired of fighting, but we haven't seen no.

Fight with them.

This be the first time, right? They all got together like this?

Well, the women.

This was the first time.

Women.

The reason why this was... the reason why all of you guys, plus the viewers and the creator of the show, all felt that, wow, this did not, this was not what I expected. And listen, I'm not going to say, and I want to say this for the record, I'm not saying I was disappointed in them.

I'm not saying that.

So I don't want to, I want to make sure that I at least say that. I'm not saying that. What I am saying is, I did expect something different based on the history of the dynamic of what Arianne brought to these ladies and their husbands. So what I will say is this. When the scene happened and I watched it, and obviously I know how this entire season goes, I will give y'all.

This.

This Saturday's episode... goes to a different dynamic that I think you all would be like, now we're getting someplace.

Okay, good.

Someone gets checked. I love it.

Well, in the preview I saw, Ariana was getting down to business asking detailed questions. So who told you that? When? Where did you get that from? And I saw Letitia Scott. Let me say it like that. Letitia Scott, I saw her struggling. You know what I'm saying? Not struggling. I saw her shrugging, going, hmm. And not really answering the question.

So that's going to piss me off. I'm telling you right now, like if we're playing them kind of games of let's be vague and let's not really get engaged in the conversation, that's going to piss me off. Because now when Elle brought it up to you, to Letitia Scott, she said, well, it is what it is. The proof is in the pudding or whatever about the rumor she said about Martel, right? And Arianne was asking direct questions related to it. Y'all are face to face. Let's hash it out and get down to business. That's how you make progress. So being coy and vague is really going to frustrate me watching that next week if that's what we get.

Again, it's a band-aid and not a cure. Like, they need to go ahead and just head on, fearlessly, let's go. Let's have it.

Not from you, Carlos, from the people who are being coy and vague.

No, I get that.

I get that.

And that's why at the end, the episode ended with, obviously, like Dustin saying, you know, Miss Nell, Chris Fletcher, Martel, they asked Arianne, how did things go? And she said, look, they were nice. And they made, listen. Nell, say it.

Nell started the shit in that conversation talking about Nell was being messy, which we love her for because sometimes you have to push the story forward, right? So Nell was pushing the story forward and she said, that's what they said. It sounded like they tucked the tail. And then it was like, you know what I'm saying? And they was like, what?

He is.

And it's all facts. That's what Nell said. Mind you, what Letitia Scott said was the proof is in the pudding. So there was a little inflating going on there, but Nell was being messy. She said that and Arianne being gullible and naive to the space, right? She bit the bait like them people that's putting Kool-Aid on raw chicken and going fishing. Bit the bait just like that and took it up talking about, well, they wanted to play games.

Now it's my turn, which reflects nothing. other than her original and her intentions since the very beginning of her inclusion in this show, which is to play that get-back game with Letitia and Kimmy specifically, and especially Destiny. But that's not really a get-back game. That's a get-you game. They're deep in the center, in the bullseye of their conflict right now, and it's just starting to brim over.

So we're going to see that. That's probably what's going to give me the long form, you know what I'm saying, situation. I think I'm going to get there from Destiny and Arianne.

Destiny.

Yeah, I can't wait for that because I think Destiny's not going to be as scary as the others are being right now.

Oh.

What was you about to say? Because I thought you, I think you was about to tell us something. You just stopped yourself. No, nigga. Spit it out. No, no, no.

I was saying, I was saying, Destiny... Destiny gives it to her with an okay, sir. It's... Destiny... I mean, you saw something in the trailer. I will say this. When Destiny is face-to-face with Arianne again, and I want to... It's not this week's episode, it's next week. What I will say on the record.

Destiny versus Arianne... It's for the record books.

Let's do it. Let's do it.

And it's one of many.

Let's do it. So don't ask me no more about who has taken the leadership role, the star of the show, currently. Because that revolves, right? It's a revolving seat. But Destiny's in it. She's occupying it because of things like this. Letitia and Kimmy have an option here. I really hope, which I know, not even I hope because I know you, At the reunion, you're going to go through a timeline with this situation. And you're going to remind everybody on that stage what has happened. And we're going to get the coverage, the acknowledgement, and we're going to get into the minutia of that relationship, those relationships, and all the occurrences therein. I know we're going to get out to it.

Your husband put his thing in her hole. How did that make you feel?

Front and back. Brothers, she said that.

What is that dynamic?

That's right.

How was the holidays? Don't let him have tomorrow.

Oh, Jesus.

Listen.

Listen, this week's episode on Saturday, 11 Match Huntsville, you will see Arianne come face-to-face with Tisha and Destiny. Arianne confronts Tisha and On what Miss Nell told her. She said about Martel. And Arianne comes in. They're having a midnight brunch. And Arianne comes in.

Baby.

And listen.

Letitia Scott is a Libra. So I will say stay tuned. She's a Libra. She's a Libra.

She's Wanda's daughter.

And she's Miss Wanda's daughter.

So don't ever get it. Letitia Scott. That's why I'm like where is it? When are we going to mine that? We're going to mine that and bring that to the surface.

Letitia Scott and Aryan have a moment and Destiny comes in and I'll leave it at that.

And saves the day, hopefully.

You said what, baby?

Saves the day, regulates.

That's what she needs to come and do because it's all this smoke. It's like, what is going on? Are we fighting over the same man?

Now, Aryan is a Leo.

He is.

One means that she ain't ever been wrong in her life, let her tell it. And two, feels like she can go up against anybody. So this might make mama feel, you know, that might put a batter in her back. Even if they whip, even if they kind of whip her, she'll be like, oh, bitch, I'm coming back the next time for my thing.

So. Yeah.

And that's exactly what happens.

All right, that's enough tea for y'all.

My mom's a Leo.

They never wrong.

I know a Leo. Girl, please.

Never wrong.

That is so good.

All right.

They just came back. They're back on the Young and the Restless now, right?

But Shamar ain't got no big age. Shamar is too sneaky. Carlos, he ain't going to tell Carlos nothing.

That's true.

He's probably ready to pour tea.

Debbie Morgan cussing and shit on Beauty in Black now.

That's Angie. Shit. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Is it Crystal?

Did you say from the soap world?

Is it Crystal? Would you consider Beauty in Black as soap?
