If he had only come to break up with Darcey and go home right away, he wouldn't have needed that big suitcase! I don't think he went to the airport and instead stayed in the city for a while.

doyouevengohere October 12, 2018 Share October 12, 2018 (edited) So late finishing this episode up..... Rachel /Jon- I thought he was "putting on a show" for the friends and family dinner. They were walking in fighting and he turned into "happy" jon for the dinner. yikes. I've wanted to believe he has changed, for Lucy's sake, but I think he's just the same sad angry garbage gnome. Rachel looked beautiful for the wedding. I'm glad she found a dress that she liked that looked her age. She's an idiot for marrying him however. Daycare is pretty expensive; Jon could have been using that to you know....pay down his debt. Darcy/Jessie- His only reason for inviting her to the hotel (or even coming to break up with her) was to get sex out of her. Otherwise, why did he think it would end anything but badly? Darcy and her whore dress are pathetic. I feel so bad for her daughters. Hazel/Torgo- Torgo is mr. right now for Hazel.....he was who was available to pay for a room for her so she wouldn't end up homeless.....and that's about it. She promised to marry him for the immediate problem so she wouldn't be on the streets, THEN she's hoping he can help her get her child back. It's a marriage of convienence for her. Dean was hoping it would become a vacation sex threesome and that's why he's so mad. Marta- why was she on this show? really? what was the point? To boost her exposure as a stripper ? Pol/Karine- both of their lives are just too weird and sad. Angela/Micheal- Micheal is better off. He was the only likeable person on this show (besides Lucy and his friends). He may be a rotten scammer but I don't wish Angela and her nasty family on him. Why didn't she go with him to the bank? She's an idiot. How on earth did Icky's wife get Himena's number????????? yeah right.........

It looked like Mom/Auntie (?) and ex-girlfriend cousin already had plates with food in front of them. And it looked all the world that they got married beside a potting shed.

I was trying to demonstrate what would have a bombshell coming from her if she had waited to tell him about her older daughter til a day before the wedding!! I don’t think either of them truly know the other person well enough to love them. Their relationship isn’t based on reality... it’s a fantasy. Jon offers to pay her daycare to be her protector/knight in shining armor. That’s the way he sees himself, it’s a fantasy he’s created about himself. He even uses it to explain away all his fights... protecting poor defenseless women from bullies. I wonder if Jon has not been working for a long time. We only saw a glimpse of him sorting trash... maybe as someone posted it was part of community service he had to serve. Student loans and two repossessed vehicles and no job. He seems to think that if he can continue to pay for daycare that’s all he has to do? Who is going to pay for the legal expenses to hire a lawyer to process the visa/green card request? With his issues they will need a lawyer and a good one. Tickets to visit him, on her I guess. Wake up Rachel. Dump him and get child support from Lucys real father. Put your energy into bettering the life you have with your kids. It’s just going to be more of what you are looking to escape from if you stay with him, worse even, since the idiot is talking about having children. Even though child support is for the child and the custodial parent is not supposed to waive it in exchange for the noncustodial parent not having a relationship with the child, sometimes such a deal is struck. Maybe Rachel told the father that she would not seek support if he let her raise the baby on her own. For one thing, she wouldn’t then have to get his permission to take the baby out of the country or let her be on tv. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/113/#findComment-4747027

These two deaths gutted me as if I knew these people. I thought where Jon lived looked familiar.

My husband did it twice; once with nothing else lined up and once because he wanted to go to school. We'd talked about the second one, but hadn't agreed to anything. I didn't have children, and it turned out that my husband had a congenital brain disease that I think over the years resulted in many mini-strokes that affected his executive functioning. To be with someone like this when you have a baby? Giant red flag. It's possible that Jon has had some brain damage from fighting that has made him unable to process the concept of consequences properly. 3) Lucy is the most adorable baby ever.

I feel like I've seen Ximena in that dress talking about "I am so excited about meeting this guy" and "I am not sure if I can continue with this guy now that he called me Melissa" and about "I am giving him a last chance because of the text from his wife" and Marta in that necklace saying "I am falling in love with this guy tho we don't speak the same language" and "I hope he sends the letter" and "I know we have a problem because of religion" and "He didn't send the letter and I am sad." I get that there's one long talking head and they can't keep pulling people away from, e.g., throwing their fiance into the pool to drown, in order to get "how are you feeling right now" footage (because of lighting and other issues), and I get that they are interviewing in present tense ("So, take us back. It is the time that you first met Daya. How are you feeling?") in order to get present tense clips. But now that I've seen those outfits telling me "how things ARE" (not were) in twelve different phases of these stupid stories, I get annoyed. You reading TLC? Can you please interview people about the first third of their story, make them wash their face, redo their hair and makeup, and put on a different dress while you switch out the furniture and backdrop, then interview them about the second third of their story, then reset again for the denouement? The hair and makeup people are right, there, it would be a pretty minor cost, and would help me a lot with my suspension of disbelief. K thx bai. This!!!!!! It aggravates the snot out of me with all the talking head interviews in all seasons of this show. At least change your damn shirt a couple of times to give the illusion of a timeline. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/113/#findComment-4748769

She was quite the realist when she asked Michael if he was going to wipe her butt when she couldn't anymore. Maybe she's going after younger guys because she's afraid of being alone with no one caring for her. She works hospice, right? Maybe she comes across people who are alone at the end of their lives & she's worried about herself. Or maybe I'm over thinking this & she just wanted a young lay. Or both. If she's in perimenopause, her clock is probably ticking loudly. It's not unusual even though she has a daughter. As for as worry about end of life stuff, it's something many of us think about. I am a cold-eyed realist, so I know already that in terms of the unpleasant side of elder care, we will ALL be taken care of by strangers. To ask your child to wipe your incontinent ass is the height of selfishness and most people, no matter how close they are to their parents, won't do it. I have a friend who is interviewing "honorary daughters" to try and get this promise. It's unrealistic. Angela is a hospice nurse so she KNOWS what disease and death looks like. She may end up taken care of by a Nigerian man, but it will be a nurse's aide or home health aide, not someone who pretends to be in love with her. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/113/#findComment-4748792

Of course Hazel would need money for food, etc...Tarik is the perfect mark, he is desparate for love and needs to feel like a hero rescuing a fair maiden and all Hazel had to say was that she loves him and jackpot! I am quite sure when Hazel told Tarik that her ex boyfriend said she could buy back her belongings she gave the puppy dog eyes as in Tarik should open his wallet and give her the money. Tartik is the one person who I wish WOULD get taken just because of his and his brother's attitudes towards women. He truly disgusts me and when Hazel had mentioned in that one TH that they hadn't had sex yet, I thought Don't do it girl, you won't get a penny after you do. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/113/#findComment-4749433

But I think it's equally possible that he stole the money, figuring he wasn't going to throw good money after bad. 2) Being married to a man who quits his job without consulting you is not fun. My husband did it twice; once with nothing else lined up and once because he wanted to go to school. You made me rethink this. I bet you Michael did spend the $900, but on Angela's approval. She knows he had no money and there's no way he could afford every place he took her. She needed both her credit cards just to pay the hotel, there's no way she had $900 sitting anywhere. If he stole it, they get tv drama and he can give it back to her, or spend it. Whatever. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/113/#findComment-4749540

ALittleShelfish October 14, 2018 Share October 14, 2018 @magemaud I was wondering exactly how many tell alls did they film while Jesse was here. Because, you're right, he and Darcey haven't changed... But I don't think they could have gotten an entire other season filmed at the same time and said "okay you guys, don't peep any of this because it'll air.... a year from now..." but the Rachel/Jon timeline is weird and you know what? I need to stop putting so much thought into this shit because I just can't care anymore.

Not sure if she meant he gave her the 300 as she requested, but that an additional 2 withdrawals were made for 300 each back to back with the first and that he pocketed that 600. Or did she tell him to take 300 for his use and he took 2 additional withdrawals of 300 at the same time for a total of 900. Odd that she had exactly 901 dollars in her account, not 946, 978 or some other number. 901, just enough to make 3, 300 dollar withdrawals leaving a single dollar to keep the account in the black. Odd. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/113/#findComment-4749650
magemaud October 14, 2018 Share October 14, 2018 I'm still convinced that most of the Darcey/Jesse scenes (his first trip to NYC, meeting the girls and Stacey, CT Air BnB, restaurant tantrums, etc.) and their THs were all filmed about a year ago, around the same time as last season's Tell All was filmed. Later Jesse returned to the city to film the Break Up scenes and for this year's Tell All and when that was completed, he was shown at the airport going home to Amsterdam. Just a theory, but that's my story and I'm sticking to it... 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/113/#findComment-4749732

Mothra October 14, 2018 Share October 14, 2018 Remember Marta and her cross? I've been rewatching, and unless I missed something, that scene where she's talking on the computer with her Muslim boyfriend is the only one in which she is wearing the cross. With a low-necked top so you can't miss the cross, and a smug look on her face as well. I call shenanigans on her whole non-story. What a stupid idea, having a christian woman court a muslim man and make sure she rubs her religion in his face. There's no way this was going anywhere. TLC needed filler. 11 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/113/#findComment-4750618

Really wouldn't you just want to dress to impress just a bit meeting so many of his friends and family for the first time. But even when she had her hair curled, eyeshadow, and wedding dress on I still didn’t have the feeling that she was done up. She’s not unattractive she just lacks any personality or presence. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/113/#findComment-4750669
