Love After Lockup: Life After Lockup

She only had an inch or two of black hair, which equals 2-4 months of regrowth. That would mean she definitely colored/bleached it while pregnant.

Andrea/Lamar-this changed my mind about her. She totally is holding him hostage. Among my many other questions about this show, I have to add 'why didn't you bring him to Utah to see how he liked it BEFORE you married him?' 

Clint/My Goddess- poor Alice.

Lizzard/Scott- ew. Surprised Sharlene didn't realize he was on drugs. Where is this old fool getting all this money that he's tossing around (after supposedly going broke spending $100K on Lizzard)? Also, Lizzard dresses younger than her daughter; I don't think I've ever seen anyone wearing what must be an industrial-strength bra under a tube top.

Mike/Megan/Sarah-such cute kids. As predicted, Mike calls BOTH of them 'Pretty Girl', rather than their names. I was slightly hopeful when Sarah vo'd that 'the longer she's in the room with him, the angrier she gets'. Wonder what the big shocking secret is that's going to end the season finale?!!!!🙄

Brit/Marcellino- Still waiting to hear Marcellino apologize for confronting Tito after Brit asked him not to. He seems to be a great dad to Gio now, but can you imagine the scenes when the kid gets into his teens and starts rebelling?

New  season preview (hope this is OK to put here)- the return of Angela and Tony! Do we really need both Duck Lips girl and gold-painted woman who looks like Tracy Morgan in drag? And again with the financial mystery- 'Amber' (with the bank robber BF and the sister who's a prison guard) has spent $30K on him, but is supporting 3 kids on $1200 a week? AND she's an 'intervention specialist' (or something)- like, with drugs?!

The bald guy who works for the government as a specialist seems like he may have had a traumatic brain injury.

How could I forget to mention Clint saying Tracie sucked d*ck for a ride. Sounds like MyGoddess has fallen from the pedestal he put her on.

Clint either has taken acting lessons or was on something in that scene.  His eyes were popping out of his head.

Blonde or light hair with dark roots is the style now.  She may be going with something new.

[Scout Finch]

I don't care what the style is if it looks terrible. When my roots start to show I go buy a box of hair color (medium golden blonde). The roots growth makes my hair flatter and harder to style that area. My hair is also in much better condition after I color it--not that I can figure that part out since I've been bleaching it for centuries, which is supposed to be damaging.

Delusion, thy name is Andrea. She is awful. Yeah, he's listening to you with his headphones on 

Why is Lizzie still walking around in a towel? I'm surprised that she doesn't tip over with those boobs. Oh, now they're quoting the Bible. Yeah,  no.

Megan is an idiot. That is all

That baby is gorgeous! I love that head of hair! How is Mumbles at Sarah's place? Isn't he still on tether?

Throw that phone, Clint!!

Scott is such a  big baby

Michael's big secret is that his boyfriend is getting out of the pen and they are going to run away together and live happily ever after??

At least Michael and a boyfriend won't be making any babies he can't afford.

Quote

Her daughter was so excited to see her dad.

That broke my heart. I can't stand Michael and I think Pretty Girl is going to be disappointed many, many times in her life when Daddy isn't there for her. 

Quote

Is he out of jail for good now?  I understand he is on parole and lives under restrictions, so why hasn't she found a job where he has to live and moved in with him?  Being a server (does that mean waiter?) seems to me a very transportable job.  Is her family financially supporting her?  I think they would be open to subsidizing a move to wherever Michael is if it meant she and her children could be in a stable family relationship.  This whole situation reeks of Cabbage Patch Decay.

I think Sarah is smart to stay near her family. I don't know if they help her financially but I think they probably provide a lot of child care for the Pretty Girls. Free, trusted childcare is gold. Plus Michael doesn't strike me as the type of stay out of trouble for long. If I were Sarah I wouldn't be with Michael at all ever uproot whatever stability I have in my life to move closer to Michael given that he's not likely to stay out of jail for any length of time. Plus other couples have mentioned the ability to transfer parole. Having two young children and a wife living in another state would seem to be compelling argument for doing so. I think Michael could do that if he was truly committed to being a father to his children but he prefers to live with his mama and let her take care of him while also having the freedom to chase women as he pleases.

Andrea acted like a desperate teenager acts after losing her virginity.   I mean damn, had she let the man breathe/relax for a second I think Lamar may have been open to the idea of moving to Utah. She doesn't kniw when to quit. And furthermore,  don't they both have jobs? How can they just pick up and move back? 

Sarah drove to him (with DONE papers in tow) and had an air bnb. 

ETA did anyone else notice when Michael was talking about his mom/sis watching the kids so they could go out alone Avianna got extremely upset and yelled "NO!" She really just wants her Daddy 😥

Andrea be crazy! Seriously, you're just not going back at all and neither can he? Kids are on their way, talked to his parole officer, blah blah blah. Uh, no. Her friend was equally as incredulous!

Maybe Andrea visited Scott across town and got into his stash. That’s why she’s talking like a loon.

Or she doesn’t like grandma and auntie.

[cooksdelight]

Earlier scenes showed Sarah getting along with her mother-in-law and Michael’s family. And I’m sure she’d take the granddaughters over to visit. I think this was more of a production setup to create drama.

[RealReality]

Interesting episode...

1. Megan is legit jealous of a newborn baby.  I hope she really thinks about that in her private moments.  Is she proud of making a newborn baby her enemy?  And why would it make things so much easier if the rain wasn't his?  He still has a child with HIS WIFE.

Why would you want a man to have a clean break from one child or two children?  I mean you have to know that he is never getting full custody of either child so then basically, in Megan's ideal world, Michael completely abandons his children? 

He can barely be bothered to remember their names so maybe it's something he would do.....but damn, do you really want a man who would do that?  Do better girl!

2. What joke did Tracie make?  Clint pretending he isn't on drugs is laughable.  

I also don't understand why you'd want to do something as formal as renew your vows in jeans and tee shirts?

Can we please meet Stephanie? 

3. Andrea has lost her damn mind. 

Some of this is on Lamar for promising to move to Utah at all.  He clearly has no intention of doing so on any timetable.  But what the hell could Andrea ever gain with this plan?

It's like that movie Misery and it's creepy as hell.  If I were Lamar she would lose any and all trust.  He needs to get his ID and his debit card, call his parole officer and tell her that he is heading home.  

I think Lamar will end up in jail if he chooses to stay in LA, but that is his decision to make.

That pro and cons list was weird.  How is "lots of Mormon temples" a pro to someone who has been clear that he isn't going to convert?

4. Lizzie was always looking for an excuse to leave.  I'm 250% sure that she only agreed to meet with Scott because she wanted reality show money and attention.  

The idea that she loves Scott or wanted to make it work is laughable.  I suspect that Lizzie told Scott she would try to make it work as long as they were on the show.  Scott, who is pitiful and desperate.....agreed.

So, I think Scott was kind of in on it, but thought Lizzie might really get back with him.  That was never going to happen.

Him guilting her was ridiculous.  

Also, where the hell is he getting all this money and why is he carrying it around in his pocket?  Was he always planning on making it rain on the suburban streets of Oxnard?

I know that $20 beauty shop wig must have been itching like crazy....I can't believe she filmed so long with that thing on.

I'm all about body confidence, but Lizzie just wears things that are just.....odd.  like cut off jeans shorts and a tube top, why? 

5. Brittney and Marcelino fighting in court for full custody of gio could easily backfire.  People relapse all the time, and Britney, who is under a lot of pressure and married to a nitwit who always thinks he is the smartest guy in the room is just as likely to have a relapse.

I doubt Marcelino has any official rights to Giovanni under a custody agreement so if Brittney ends up back in jail it may be Tito who can seek full custody.

And I wonder how Tito will feel about letting Marcelino take Giovanni after an ugly court fight?  I wonder how Tito will feel about allowing Giovanni to stay with Brittany and Marcelino if she gets out of jail again?  

I also think seeking full custody of Giovanni is going to make him hate Marcelino.  He surely isn't going to blame his dad, he won't want to blame his mother but marcellino will be the easy target for his anger at not being around his dad.

My stepdaughter went through literally that exact piss testing scenario the night before this aired.  Her BF wasn't "feeling well" a lot of the time and she insisted he go to the doctor.  They ran some urine tests while he and my stepdaughter waited in the exam room.  Doc came back in, asked if the BF wanted her in the room for the results, and he said yes, he would never hide anything from her.

Stupid fucker tested dirty for meth.  The not "feeling well" a lot was caused by him coming down from the meth highs.  He apparently thought because he hadn't used yet that day, he would test clean.

He also did the "I can't piss!" twice in her presence and she caught onto his game and left.  When she wouldn't answer his calls, he deflected back onto her, saying she wasn't supportive enough and that's why he couldn't stop using, she just didn't love him enough.  Ugh.  It was just like the conversation between Scott and Lizzie.  

I'm not sure if that scenario on the show was scripted or not, but if it was...well, that was the epitome of life imitating art.  

Yeah, it's a rare occasion when I can't at least squeeze out a few emergency drops at a doctors office.  

Sorry about your daughter.  Maybe she can try going to an Al-Anon meeting or something along those lines.  I feel like no matter what the addiction a lot of addicts must use deflection and victimization to justify their behavior and so people at those meetings probably have some good strategies to deal with that or at least a good idea of what your daughter is struggling with.

I don't mean to pry, but it's just a thought.

Sarah thinks she's the shit. How many times have we heard her crying to her friend about how amazing, wonderful, and great she is and how dare Michael do this to her. Her view is: How dare he mention divorce. He has no right to do that because I'm amazing and wonderful. I, on the other hand, am getting the shit end of the stick so I'm entitled to file for and demand a divorce. He is not. He should be devastated beyond belief to lose me." What did she expect? To rent an AirBnB, introduce him to his newest Pretty Girl, have some nice family moments, spring the papers on him and he fall down in tears, begging for forgiveness and pleading with her to take him back so he can save his family? Yeah, right.

I think another part of it is that Sarah feels that if they get divorced he is free do to whatever he wants with Megan or anyone else and she does not want him to have that unchecked freedom because she's stuck at home with the two kids with no spousal help. The idea of him floating around and mumbling his way into other beds and having a grand old time infuriates her. Being married gives her the right to contact him constantly, demand to know his whereabouts and to be all over him about that all the time. Of course, married or not, he's doing that anyway but being married does put obligations on him that Sarah does not want to lose.

What will end up happening after a divorce is that he'll show up at her house on occasion to see Pretty Girl 1 and 2 and owes no explanation for his whereabouts or sex life. She will be doing all the real work of raising kids, and he'll come by and color for an hour every once in a while, gaze in Sarah's eyes, get sex from her and be on his way. Then she'll go out and get her hair and nails done and lament once again to her friend how poorly she's treated and doesn't deserve this. She can look forward to this for the rest of her life.  Wait until she gets herself another prince and Michael doesn't want some "other dude" around his daughters. That'll sure make life even more fun.

Lamar and Andrea are never going to work because they want different things in life.  But to have a chance they need to pick a third, neutral place to live.  They can find a place where there is a significant African-American population and where one religion is not so dominant, yet where Lamar will not have preexisting relationships with gang members.  But that would be just the first step.

Sadly, I doubt she will.  This debacle in the doctor's office happened about 6 weeks ago and she's left/taken him back three times since then because he continues to use.  She's a beautiful girl with a heart of gold, but this dude is dragging her down a rabbit hole and has addict manipulation down to an art form.  And my stepdaughter has 3 kids under the age of 13 being dragged through this fuckery, which really pisses me off.  

If Scott is back on drugs, even "off and on" (yeah, right), I hope Lizzie walks away from the easy TLC money and goes back to obscurity and her forklift driving job.  

At least there are no small children involved in the Scott/Lizzie situation.

I am sorry for your daughter and doubly sorry for the kids involved, @Persnickety1.  Sounds to me like your daughter is codependent and I speak from prior experience.  I was in a relationship back in my 20s where I felt I couldn't live with him, couldn't live without him.  I loved him but was absolutely miserable.  I was on an emotional rollercoaster 24/7, worrying about who he was with, what he was doing, would he come home, what if he did, what if he didn't.   If I voiced any concerns, if I spoke out, I was made into the "bad guy."  His bad behavior was always my fault.   When I did finally leave, although it was extremely hard for me to do because I had almost been institutionalized of sorts, it was ultimately unbelievably freeing.  I didn't realize how horrifically miserable I was until I was out of it.   No one deserves to live like that and children certainly shouldn't grow up thinking that's a normal family environment.   I hope your daughter will leave sooner rather than later.

Andrea really jumped the gun and overplayed her hand.  Had she remained quiet about her desire to move back to Utah, at least during the trip, and let Lamar form his own opinions about the area without his wife and her friends pushing it on him constantly, he may have developed a different viewpoint.  However, she clearly does not like LA (understandable) and I don't think her kids do either.  She should pack them up and move back and let Lamar do whatever he's going to do.  

Clint and MyGoddess are a hot mess.  They yell, scream, fight, say they aren't going to get married, storm off, come back and then after a few more insults, decide sure, let's go ahead and renew our vows.   Neither deserves the other although they are both messy.  

I agree that Marcelino pissed me off in that he really didn't take responsibility for the fight with Tito.  He went over there looking for a fight.  And it made zero sense.  Sure, Tito had full legal and physical custody but if Marcelino and Brittany had Giovanni for a year, that does count for something.  Don't rock the boat, keep the peace.  If Tito made moves to get Gio back, then you go get an attorney.  But going to TIto's house, insulting him as a father and then throwing punches was stupid.   And not to pick on Brittany but maybe someone should remind Marcelino why exactly Tito had full custody.

Lizzie and Scott are both fuck ups.  Lizzie is a trashy user (of people, I mean) and Scott will never learn.   Did he get clean because of Lizzie initially?  Is that why he's so attached to her?  I don't get it.  Shar deserves better though.  #FreeShar  

I don't even know what to say about Cabbage Patch/Michael/MeganMyQueen.  Wait.  Yes, I do.  Cabbage Patch is playing a tired, never successful game of "I'll pretend that I'm done with you and you'll come back on your hands and knees, begging."  Obviously her mother never read her the story about the little boy that cried wolf when she was younger because that's exactly what she's doing.  She's screamed she's done at that little sprite Michael so many times, it means absolutely NOTHING.  To him or anyone else.  If you're done, Cabbage Patch, then be done.  The end.  Period.  If you're not, then just admit to yourself and everybody else that you're not going to dump Michael and then shut it about his lying and cheating because that will never change, no matter how long you've been married or how many Pretty Girls you have.  But be prepared for not only your daughters to have God knows how many step-siblings but for them also to grow up and find a Michael since you are teaching them how home life and family should be.  

I honestly don't care about what MeganMyQueen does; I only care about Cabbage Patch because of the children.  Both women are chucklefucks IMO.  Aim higher.  Do better.   If women wouldn't settle for allowing little shits like Michael to do what he does, he and others like him wouldn't be successful.  

What is Michael's secret?  Wouldn't be surprised a bit if he's got yet another side piece but it will probably be something like he's told Cabbage Patch to get a divorce (yawn). 

I really wish Tennyson and Nala could show up to lay down the truth for MeganMyQueen and Cabbage Patch, since they are clearly the most intelligent people on this show.

Ugh, he actually pulled the "I can't piss!" after the doctor appointment.  She had temporarily left him but gone back because he swore to her he would quit.  She had picked up a couple of home tests.  She wanted him to test whilst she was there, and that's when he claimed he couldn't piss (just like Scott!).  After he "couldn't" piss for 36 hours (lol), she cut it off with him again.  She said she knew he wouldn't piss because he was dirty.  This latest separation won't last, though.  She actively looks for reasons to take him back.  She left her upstanding husband for this jackass and doesn't see the impact all of this drama is having on her kids.  She won't let him move back in, but she takes him food, texts/phones constantly with him, has sex with him, and goes for overnight visits...He has no motivation to change and at this point she's a classic enabler.  I've suggested NA a few times for him, but I'm going to take your suggestion and suggest she check out Al-Anon for herself.

The odd thing was the audio mentioned only making a joke but the closed captioning added about doing drugs.  Later in the convo the audio did reference joking about doing drugs and it being the one year anniversary since she abandoned him on the wedding night to go on the crack binge.

Yes, remember when he took Brittany’s plate away while she was eating?  He is controlling to the nth  degree. Brittany begged him, with fear in her voice/eyes, to leave things be.  But no one tells Marcelinho what to do!

I vaguely remember that Michael had asked for a "travel pass" to go to upstate New York to see rain being born.  

Of course he decided to ask days before the C-section that had been scheduled weeks in advance and right after meganmyqueen had been branded with a scarlet A for kissing roc.  And the PO told him to pound sand.

So I think you can get a travel pass even when you have a ankle monitor on.  Michael's PO may have been more amenable when Michael asked in advance and he understood that Michael's appearance fees for being on the show could help pay his costs to the state for ankle monitoring. 

[queenbee24]

This show man. I wanna quit you but I can't.

Brittany and Marcelino- Wow he is really really screwing things up. If they were at all smart, they would have approached Tito for joint custody. the fact is right now Tito has 100% custody which is super problematic as if Tito shows up Brittany has to give him the child at any moment. Also, Brittany likely has no decision making abilities for the child right now. Even if Tito has just dropped him on them and hasn't seen him for months (which who knows if that's even true) the Court isn't likely to just give them 100% custody, Tito would at minimum have visitation. of course Marcelino burned any bridge Brittany tried to build. I feel like SHE was going about it the right way- she recognized a change in the custody order needed made but was trying to go about it in a way that wouldn't trigger Tito. Now apparently Tito is on the warpath in real life. Poor Gio.

Andrea and Lamar- I can't help but like Lamar, which I did NOT see coming. He's really never said he'd even consider moving, he just said he'd visit. Then she went all crazy. FYI ladies going off the deep end rarely works out. I agree with whoever posted that they need to move to a third, neutral location.

Clint/Goddess- I can't even keep up with their shenanigans. I mean they spend like 97% of their time mad and running off. How exhausting. But I guess tweakers dont' get tired as easily as the rest of us. Watching their scenes makes ME twitch too.

Sarah/Meghan/Mumbles: Sarah, you had me on your side up until this episode. I know, she's an idiot to get pregnant again BUT she got pregnant again I assume thinking ok he's out now we can live our lives, etc. And she didn't know about Meghan til after she was knocked up with PG2. But now? Girl teach your daughters how they should be treated and move. I commend her for taking the girls to see their tethered daddy and facilitating that relationship though. As for Meghan, well she's scum. You know he's on tether, you know he is MARRIED and just had his second child, you know he's a loser but you just want to "beat" Sarah now. Those poor baby girls. I hope Sarah has a good support system and they have some positive role models in their lives.

Tito had his ass handed to him in an embarrassing way and it wasn't even close.  He is likely to act out just based on the fact that millions of people saw him getting held on the ground and basically told who his daddy was by Marcelino.

I got the impression that legally Tito has full custody, but that he and Brittany had a side arrangement that worked for them.  And it especially worked during these times when one of them (Tito) was having a hard time.  

The court system takes time.  If Tito is on drugs and Brittney has to hand him over that means Giovanni is in danger.  Which she seems to have wisely avoided by taking her son full time and not going through the court system.  I think Tito had no problem letting Brittney care for Giovanni while he was in a bad place.  But now that the situation has been pushed he will demand that Giovanni be with him even if he isn't in a position to care for him properly.

Poor little Giovanni will be the pawn in all this and it could have all been avoided.  

Seemed like Brittany got that calmed down because when they were at the lawyer's she said Gio was still with her. 

On 7/28/2019 at 2:36 PM, mochamajesty said:

Upon rewatch (don’t judge lol), Tito stated that the “state of Nevada granted a father 100% custody.”.  He was trying to imply something about Brittany there. I thought it was rare for the father to get sole custody unless the mom is a hot mess. No wonder Brittany looked frightened in the lawyers office while discussing the case. She seemed truly frightened of Tito. Now I see why. 

Was Brittany ever on drugs? I can’t remember her charges. 

He was absolutely implying that Brittany was a hot mess enough for a father to get 100$ custody.  But Brittany also alluded to that when they were in the lawyer's office and she was explaining how he got 100% custody.  I think drugs were her main charges.

I mean I question Andreas judgment at every turn, but I kinda understood how she thought she might accomplish something.  But this is so behavior is so bizarre.  

Does anyone really know where nyla and tennison's dad is?  Are we absolutely sure he is alive and not chained in a cave somewhere?  

She is cuckoo mcbonkers.  She would have to literally be willing to hold onto his ID and debit card for the rest of his life?  Make sure he doesn't ever have access to a phone to call....anyone....

Like, in her mind, best case scenario....how did she see this playing out?

Thank you for this. My new name for apeshit crazy people.

I know this is an unpopular opinion but I have some sympathy for Megan.  She is young and in "love" and lost her virginity to someone she loves.  When I lost mines (way back when)LOL, to the boy I loved, I could not imagine having sex with anyone else.  Sex is a strong pull when you feel you are in love you just want that person.  Now granted I didn't have all those obstacles that she has (a wife, a brand new baby that he made while professing his love for her) BUT when you are young you are selfish and only thinking about yourself and what you want.  She is probably rationalizing it that Michael loves her and not his wife. She is not listening to her dad or anyone because she wants to believe Michael.   Believe me, when she gets older and thinks back to this era of her life, she will probably be saying about herself what everyone here is saying.

A lot of people advise against coloring/bleaching your hair while pregnant. 

I checked with a friend of mine who is an OB - it's perfectly safe to color your hair while pregnant. I think it's an old myth that won't die.

I'm pretty sure it's also illegal.

(Didn't watch Season1) Did we ever get to see the father? And is he also the third child's father?

I have a very strong feeing that Megan was no more of a virgin than I am. But it makes for a good storyline.

I agree - she talked about it WAAAAY too much.

As far as I remember we never saw the father and I feel like Andrea may have said or intimated that he wasn't involved.  Now I wonder if his corpse is rotting on a rock somewhere after he said he might wanna try living in Oregon or something.....🤔

Roll on over to Married at First Site and acquaint yourself with Iris. I believe she has "virgin" listed on her LinkedIn. Her virginity is a whole third character on that show. And I do believe she is technically a virgin.

I hate cultural appropriation with a vengeance, so I will just say this about Sara:

She is like a lot of white women who date black men - she talks street because he does.  She didn't speak that way with her friend, if I recall correctly.   I am surprised she didn't have a dreadlocked weave. 

And have we seen her with any black people other than Michael? All of her friends that we have seen are white. 

Exactly. Sarah is just one of those white women who thinks dating black men/men of color gives them "street cred" and the right to act a certain way to look tough.

Reminds me of How I Met Your Mother when Lily's friend from college shows up (a young woman of color) and Lily goes all Sarah with everyone!!!!

I would like to know when Andrea became Mormon and if the ex was Mormon. Was she raised Mormon? Where is the rest of her family? I wonder if she was adopted by a Mormon family. I can get family not wanting to be on the show but she never talks about them. 

[Armchair Critic]

Michael was talking to ANOTHER woman while on his way to Megan's?!! smdh

[configdotsys]

Sarah goes into blaccent in the TH and then goes all out with it when they talked divorce. It’s so cringeworthy. So Sarah files for divorce, drives all the way there to present the papers then goes crazy when he says he wants a divorce? “How dare you get me pregnant”? Give me a break. She got all weepy as if this was a complete shock to her. This is the situation that she created for herself. Real smart to bring another kid into this situation. Michael was pretty vicious in his comments about only proposing so he could see his kid but I can’t feel bad for Sarah. She’s a fool and thinks she’s nothing but a victim here.

Not that I’m a fan of Megan, but Mother Michael: Megan wasn’t responsible for the destruction of the marriage. Your son was. 

Wasn’t this the last episode of this group? And we don’t get to hear what surprise news he has for Megan? All the other stories closed up. WTF is up with this ending?.

I don’t think Marcellino is particularly good looking but he looks awful when clean shaven. Brittany and Marcellino. 60/40. Okay. Snore.

Lizzie and Scott are terrible actors. I’m embarrassed watching this farce. Was Scott beating up his own car?

Andrea is crazy AF. Lamar is a riot.

The person that married Clint and Tracie sounded high. Yikes, in the TH after the wedding, Clint looks like he weighs about 100 pounds. He’s totally using with her. I laughed when someone on the street called them Scott and Lizzie.

[Armchair Critic]

I was in an out during the show so I may have got this wrong but did I see in the previews for the new season some rough looking woman saying to the inmate she picked up "do you want a blow job or steak first?" and he said "steak". 😂😲

I laughed out loud at that wedding.  Clint looked deranged when they were saying their vows with his sad bowtie.

I thought they would have the black card of doom to say Tracie is back in jail.  I guess not.

I thought in previous clips she said sex or a BJ.  Lol.  Today it sounded like steak or BJ.   Sad he picked steak...😯😯

And she's from the 1st season and 2nd.  Her "boo" never for out for those seasons

There is no way Brittany's friend could read the little lettering on that sign all the way from her jail window.

Sarah gets on my GOT DAMN nerves!!! She marches her "done" ass over there with divorce papers and then is so devastated when Michael says we need a divorce. Oh, it's because he was holding Rayne when he said it 🙄 Bitch Bye/Sure Jan!! But then she's okay with crying and begging in front of her kids. I KNEW he wasn't going to try and sweet talk her (see previous comments) and now the best she can hope for is to make some money from the Xavier Roberts autograph on her ass.
