THIS IS IT. I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HIM WALK OUT THOSE DOORS.

PEDRO! AAH!

[ SOBBING ] FINALLY.

YOU SURPRISED ME HERE. CRAZY. SHE'S CRAZY.

[ EXHALES DEEPLY ] YOU OKAY?

Russ: I AM CONCERNED HOW PAOLA IS GOING TO FIT IN OKLAHOMA.

[ Crying ] IT'S NOT FAIR WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

THAT GIRL -- SHE'S JUST MARRYING YOU FOR YOUR MONEY.

Woman: THIS RING IS $75,000.

WE'RE GATHERED HERE TO CELEBRATE ONE OF LIFE'S GREATEST MOMENTS.

Officiant #1: I NOW PRONOUNCE YOU HUSBAND AND WIFE.

Officiant #2: YOU MAY KISS YOUR BRIDE.

THE AMERICAN DREAM. AMERICAN DREAM.

I DON'T WANT YOU TO RESENT ME FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.

WHAT THE [BLEEP] YOU WANT ME TO SAY?

YES, IT IS A CONCERN.

I'M DONE WITH THIS CONVERSATION. I'M [BLEEP] DONE.

FIRST TIME BORDER PATROL WALKS BEHIND YOU, YOU CAN BE DEPORTED.

HE'S IN TROUBLE.

WHEN YOU HAVE MONEY, THAT'S WHEN SHE SPREADS HER LEGS.

LET'S GO.

YEAH, WALK AWAY BECAUSE YOU'RE A LITTLE GIRL.

YOU NEED TO GROW UP.

YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING.

[ Voice breaking ] I FEEL LIKE HE'S SUFFERING.

I'M NOT GOING TO LET ANFISA DESTROY HIM.

Russ: IN MIAMI, PAOLA'S A DIFFERENT PERSON.

I'VE LOST RESPECT FOR MY WIFE.

I DON'T WANT TO ASSOCIATE MYSELF WITH THAT!

WHAT THE [BLEEP] IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?!

YOU CAME HERE FOR ME!

YOU'RE THE WORST MISTAKE IN MY LIFE!

THE POLICE ARE GOING TO BE CALLED IF YOU DON'T LEAVE.

HAVE A NICE LIFE... THANK YOU.

...BACK IN TUNISIA.

Chantel: PEDRO SENDS MONEY BACK TO HIS FAMILY EVERY MONTH.

EVERYTHING'S GOING BETTER FOR YOUR FAMILY, BUT NOT US.

WE'RE NOT GETTING BETTER.

FOR YOU? YOU LIE.

OH, MY GOD. I CANNOT. I CANNOT.

HE'S LYING TO ME. HE'S HIDING THINGS FROM ME.

I'M NOT GOING TO SCREW MYSELF OVER JUST BECAUSE

YOU WANT TO BE HAPPY.

¶¶

MY NAME'S JORGE. I'M 27 YEARS OLD.

I HAVE A BUSINESS GROWING AND CULTIVATING MEDICAL MARIJUANA.

EVERYTHING WAS GOING WELL,

AND THEN IT ALL CHANGED WHEN I MET ANFISA.

WHEN I FIRST SAW ANFISA ONLINE, I WAS JUST, LIKE, "WOW."

I KNEW SHE WAS MY DREAM GIRL.

WE TRAVELED THE WORLD TOGETHER,

AND I THOUGHT THAT I WANTED TO BE WITH HER FOREVER.

SO, I BROUGHT ANFISA TO THE U.S. ON A K-1 VISA.

BUT WHEN ANFISA GOT HERE,

THERE WAS A WHOLE LOT THAT I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT HER,

SO I HAD TO LEARN IT THE HARD WAY.

WHAT THE [BLEEP].

SHE KEYED "IDIOT" INTO THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR.

SHE BROKE PHONES -- PLURAL.

[ CHUCKLES ]

I TRIED CALLING HER. SHE -- SHE ERASED MY PHONE.

SHE'S VERY CONTROLLING.

I CAN'T TALK.

I'LL CALL YOU BACK IN JUST A FEW SECONDS.

ANFISA: No.

LIKE THAT, I'M [BLEEP]

LITERALLY MAKING A DEAL FOR 15,000 [BLEEP] DOLLARS,

AND YOU'RE REALLY [BLEEP] IT UP.

I HOPE YOU [BLEEP]

BEING WITH ANFISA, I SEVERED TIES WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY.

IT MAKES ME FEEL LONELY.

¶ THEY LIKE HOW I WALK, HOW I TALK ¶

¶ HOW I MOVE IT SO SASSY ¶

¶ SEE ME DANCE, SEE ME TWIRL IT ¶

¶ WORK IT, OOH, I'M SO FEROCIOUS ¶

YOU LOOK BEAUTIFUL TODAY.

WHERE WERE YOU?

GETTING READY.

YOU WANT YOUR WIFE TO BE PRETTY?

OF COURSE I DO.

THEN DON'T COMPLAIN.

MY NAME IS ANFISA. I'M 20 YEARS OLD.

I'M FROM MOSCOW, RUSSIA.

SINCE WE'VE BEEN MARRIED, SHE THREATENS TO LEAVE ME EVERY DAY,

BUT SO FAR, SHE HASN'T DONE IT.

SO FAR.

SO FAR.

JORGE AND I MET ONLINE.

JORGE SAID THAT HE WAS RICH, SO I RESPONDED,

BUT JORGE DIDN'T DELIVER ON HIS PROMISES

TO BUY ME NICE THINGS.

SO WE DO REQUIRE 60% DOWN.

YEAH.

WELL, OBVIOUSLY, I DON'T HAVE $20,000 IN CASH RIGHT NOW.

SO, IT'S NOT MY PROBLEM.

YOU KEEP WANTING MORE AND MORE.

LIKE, WHEN IS THE END?

WE WENT THROUGH A LOT,

AND I DIDN'T HAVE THE SUPPORT OF MY FAMILY,

WHICH WAS PRETTY HARD.

HONESTLY, I BELIEVE THAT SHE THOUGHT

SHE WAS COMING HERE TO THE U.S.

AND THAT YOU WERE GOING TO GIVE HER

EVERY SINGLE THING THAT SHE ASKED FOR.

THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PAY FOR SOMEBODY

TO SPREAD THEIR LEGS.

Jorge: I KNEW MY FAMILY WOULD'VE ADVISED

AGAINST ME MARRYING ANFISA,

BUT I STILL DID IT ANYWAYS.

Officiant: DO YOU TAKE THIS BEAUTIFUL WOMAN TO BE YOUR WIFE TODAY?

I DO.

AND DO YOU TAKE HIM TO BE YOUR HUSBAND?

YES, I DO.

I NOW PRONOUNCE YOU HUSBAND AND WIFE.

YOU MAY KISS YOUR BRIDE.

WE'VE BEEN MARRIED FOR SIX MONTHS AND...IT FEELS GOOD.

WHY YOU SAY IT LIKE THAT?

HOW?

I HATE BEING MARRIED TO JORGE.

AND WE'RE OFF TO A GOOD START.

[ CHUCKLES ]

SO, WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE PEOPLE HERE?

FAKE? THAT'S PRETTY NEGATIVE.

SINCE BEING MARRIED, WE'VE BEEN LIVING

IN A ONE-BEDROOM APARTMENT IN L.A.

I'VE BEEN TRYING TO MAKE MONEY

SINCE ANFISA HASN'T GOT HER GREEN CARD YET.

SHE CAN'T DRIVE, AND SHE CAN'T WORK.

ANFISA'S GREEN-CARD INTERVIEW IS COMING UP,

SO IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT

THAT SHE PASSES THE INTERVIEW AND GETS IT SOON.

SO, WHAT ARE YOUR FEELINGS ON WORKING?

BE A HOUSEWIFE.

MM, YOU COMPLAIN ABOUT BEING A HOUSEWIFE EVERY DAY.

BEING A HOUSEWIFE DOESN'T MEAN BEING STUCK IN AN APARTMENT.

Anfisa: I DON'T LIKE TO COOK, AND I DON'T LIKE TO CLEAN,

SO I'M NOT A TYPICAL HOUSEWIFE.

I WOULD NEVER LEARN TO COOK FOR JORGE.

I'M HAPPY JUST GOING OUT TO RESTAURANTS.

YOU GET YOUR GREEN CARD, YOU KNOW THAT MEANS

THAT THERE'S GOING TO BE SO MUCH MORE TO DO --

GET YOUR DRIVER'S LICENSE, TRAVEL IF YOU WANT TO.

GREAT.

FINALLY, I'M GOING TO FEEL LIKE A NORMAL HUMAN

AND NOT LIKE A HOSTAGE.

HOSTAGE, HUH?

MY FAMILY HAS BEEN DOUBTFUL OF ANFISA'S INTENTIONS

SINCE SHE GOT HERE.

I THINK THAT SHE JUST WANTS ME FOR THE GREEN CARD,

SO I DO WORRY WHAT WILL HAPPEN ONCE SHE GETS IT.

Anfisa: IT IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR ME TO PASS,

BECAUSE WHEN I GET MY GREEN CARD, I CAN BE FREE.

¶¶

¶ SUDDENLY, WHEN YOU LOOK AT ME ¶

¶ YOU SEEM TO SEE MORE THAN ANYONE ELSE ¶

MY NAME IS DANIELLE, AND I'M 44 YEARS OLD,

AND I LIVE IN SANDUSKY, OHIO.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING TODAY?

[ GIGGLES ]

THREE YEARS AGO, I MET MOHAMED ONLINE.

AFTER DATING LONG-DISTANCE, HE PROPOSED,

AND I BROUGHT HIM TO AMERICA ON A K-1 VISA.

[ SOBBING ] FINALLY.

I LOVE YOU, TOO.

[ GIGGLES ]

WHEN HE GOT HERE, WE STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS.

I WENT TO THE LAWYER NOW. DID YOU HEAR THAT?

[ Crying ] IT'S NOT FAIR WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

¶¶

WAITING TILL THE DAY OF THE WEDDING TO DECIDE.

BUT OUR TIME WAS RUNNING OUT, SO WE GOT MARRIED.

I NOW PRONOUNCE YOU HUSBAND AND WIFE.

YOU MAY KISS YOUR BRIDE.

I'M NOT ALLOWED TO KISS IN THIS TIME

BECAUSE THERE'S SOME SPECIFIC THINGS

WE DO IT IN MY RELIGION IN THIS MONTH.

AFTER THE WEDDING, I STARTED HEARING RUMORS

THAT MOHAMED CHEATED.

THE WOMEN ON SOCIAL MEDIA ARE MAKING UP...

THEY'RE PREGNANT.

ALL THE CRAZY STUFF THAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING IS NOT TRUE.

AND THEN TWO MONTHS AFTER HE GOT HIS GREEN CARD, HE DISAPPEARED.

I DON'T KNOW WHERE THE HELL MOHAMED IS.

DO YOU THINK THAT HE'S EVEN STILL...

IN THE SANDUSKY AREA?

I DON'T KNOW.

I FELT USED, SO I FILED FOR AN ANNULMENT.

THAT WAS MY BEST CHANCE TO GET HIM DEPORTED.

IF YOU GET AN ANNULMENT, THAT'S A RED FLAG FOR IMMIGRATION,

SO YOU HAVE TO DECIDE HOW MUCH TROUBLE

YOU WANT TO CAUSE HIM, I GUESS.

I...DON'T WANT HIM STAYING HERE IN THE STATES.

BUT WHEN HE BEGGED ME TO FILE FOR A DIVORCE INSTEAD,

I GAVE IN SO HE COULD STAY IN AMERICA,

EVEN THOUGH I KNEW MY FAMILY WOULD NOT ACCEPT IT.

FOUGHT SO HARD TO BE TOGETHER, AND NOW WE'RE DOING THIS.

WE CAN JUST BE -- BE FRIENDS.

I'M NOT AGAINST BEING FRIENDS.

I THOUGHT WE WOULD BE FRIENDS LIKE HE PROMISED,

BUT HE STOPPED TALKING TO ME.

¶¶

SO, I WENT TO MIAMI AFTER I FOUND OUT HE WAS LIVING THERE.

MOHAMED: Hello. HELLO?

I'm here in Miami.

Anything to do with you, I'm tired of it.

We will never talk anymore. This is the last time.

[ CRYING ]

AFTER HE TREATED ME LIKE THAT, I KNEW WHAT I NEEDED TO DO.

¶¶

I WANT TO GET HIM DEPORTED.

IT'S BEEN MONTHS SINCE I'VE SEEN HIM,

AND I AM STARTING TO MOVE ON FROM HIM.

I'M GOING BACK TO COLLEGE, AND I'M LOOKING

FOR A NICER HOME FOR ME AND MY DAUGHTERS,

AND I EVEN HAVE A NEW BOYFRIEND.

[ GIGGLES ]

WE'RE IN A LONG-DISTANCE RELATIONSHIP.

HE LIVES LIKE SIX HOURS AWAY.

IT HAS BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE I'VE FELT THIS HAPPY.

I'M MOVING ON FROM MOHAMED, BUT I WANT TO SHOW HIM

HE CAN'T TREAT SOMEONE LIKE THIS AND EXPECT TO GET AWAY WITH IT.

AFTER I SAW HIM IN MIAMI, HE DISAPPEARED.

I'VE BEEN TRYING TO TRACK HIM DOWN FOR A WHILE,

AND I FINALLY FOUND HIM.

HE'S GOING TO HAVE A VISITOR SOON,

AND I'M FINALLY GOING TO GET SOME PAYBACK.

¶¶

NOW THAT I'M HERE IN MIAMI, I FEEL AMAZING.

THERE'S, LIKE...THIS EMPTINESS. SHE'S GONE.

AT THIS POINT, I FEEL LIKE YOU SHOULDN'T DESERVE ANYTHING.

Jorge: IS SHE GOING TO LEAVE ME OVER THIS?

THE WORD "DIVORCE" COMES INTO MY HEAD.

[ KNOCKING AT DOOR ]

Man: ARE YOU MOHAMED..."JOOWALLY"?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT SHE'S TRYING TO DO,

WHY SHE'S DOING THIS TO ME. I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

¶ I WANNA LAY YOU DOWN ¶

WE'RE ABOUT TO GET DIVORCED.

I DON'T WANT TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH ANYONE.

THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE ANY PROBLEMS.

CUT! NICE!

¶¶

MY NAME IS PAOLA, AND I'M FROM COLOMBIA.

GOOD JOB.

YOU DID GREAT. YEAH.

I'M RUSS. I LIVE IN OKLAHOMA CITY,

WHICH IS 1,500 MILES AWAY FROM MY WIFE.

Paola: I MET RUSS WHEN HE WAS WORKING IN COLOMBIA.

I MET HIM IN A PARTY.

I WANTED TO PRACTICE MY ENGLISH, SO I WENT TO TALK TO HIM.

WE WERE DATING WHEN RUSS FOUND OUT HE NEEDED TO GO BACK TO U.S.

Russ: WHEN IT WAS TIME FOR ME TO RETURN TO THE UNITED STATES,

WE FILED FOR THE K-1 VISA

SO THAT PAOLA COULD BE WITH ME IN OKLAHOMA.

¶¶

MWAH!

I WOULD SAY PAOLA WAS PRETTY OVERWHELMED AND SHOCKED

WHEN SHE FIRST MOVED TO OKLAHOMA.

Paola: I HAD TO CHANGE MYSELF A LOT

TO TRY TO FIT INTO SUCH A CONSERVATIVE PLACE.

GOOD MORNING.

YOU WANT TO GO PUT SOMETHING -- A ROBE ON?

GOOD IDEA. THANK YOU.

Russ: EVEN THOUGH MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY

DIDN'T TRULY UNDERSTAND MY RELATIONSHIP, I DIDN'T CARE.

WE WERE MADLY IN LOVE,

AND I WAS SO HAPPY TO MARRY HER AT THE END OF OUR 90 DAYS.

[ SIGHS DEEPLY ]

[ Voice breaking ]

YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MY FIRST, MY LAST, MY EVERYTHING.

¶¶

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]

PAOLA DEFINITELY DIDN'T FEEL LIKE SHE WOULD FIT IN OKLAHOMA.

SHE DIDN'T HAVE VERY MANY FRIENDS,

AND SHE THOUGHT PEOPLE WERE JUDGING HER.

I DIDN'T KNOW THAT IT WAS GOING TO BE FOR YOU,

SO HARD TO FIND A JOB.

I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE LIKE -- PSHEW! -- REALLY QUICK.

IT WAS STRESSFUL, AND WE WERE JUST WAITING IN THERE

FOR AN OPPORTUNITY, AND WE WERE NOT DOING GOOD.

¶¶

I LIKE YOU. I WANT TO HELP YOU.

AND I ENDED UP BOOKING A PHOTO SHOOT

WITH A REALLY FAMOUS PHOTOGRAPHER HERE IN MIAMI.

Man: GOOD. GOOD!

¶¶

DON'T BE TOO CONSERVATIVE ON ME.

I'M MARRIED, BUT I'M SHOWING MY BOOBS.

[ BOTH LAUGH ]

WHEN I CAME BACK TO OKLAHOMA, I WANTED TO SHOW HIM WHAT I DID.

HE WASN'T HAPPY WITH THAT.

YOU DIDN'T CONSENT WITH ME.

YOU DIDN'T ASK IF THAT'S OKAY FOR YOU TO DO THAT.

THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN A LOT?

AND I'M SUPPOSED TO BE OKAY WITH IT?

Russ: AFTER THAT, EVERYTHING CHANGED.

PAOLA WENT AHEAD AND DECIDED,

"I'M GOING TO GO DOWN THERE AND WORK WITH THIS AGENT."

AND...THERE'S NO CHANGING HER MIND.

WHEN I TOLD RUSS THAT I WAS GOING TO MOVE TO MIAMI,

HE TOLD ME THAT I ABANDONED HIM.

IT WAS REALLY HURTFUL, BECAUSE THAT'S NOT WHAT I DID.

I DIDN'T WANT TO BE A BAD WIFE.

I WANTED MY MARRIAGE TO WORK.

BUT I WAS SO UNHAPPY UNTIL I CAME TO MIAMI

BECAUSE IT'S GOING TO HELP OUR RELATIONSHIP.

¶ DON'T GIVE UP HOPE ¶

¶ 'CAUSE THE RIVER STILL FLOWS ¶

¶ I'M COMING HOME ¶

¶ AND I'M COMING HOME ¶

IF I'M HAPPY, I CAN MAKE HIM HAPPY,

AND I HOPE HE CAN SEE IT THAT WAY.

COME ON.

WHEN SHE LEFT, IT WAS...

VERY HARD ON ME, VERY FRUSTRATING.

IT JUST...

IT WAS LIKE THIS EMPTINESS.

IT'S...

SHE'S GONE.

¶¶

Paola: I FEEL ALIVE NOW THAT I'M IN MIAMI.

-HI! -HELLO!

¶¶

NO, NOTHING. HE HASN'T FOUND ANY JOB YET.

IT'S HARD FOR HIM RIGHT NOW

BECAUSE HE'S ALONE AT HOME WITH THE DOG.

BEING AROUND MY LATIN GIRLS, IT FEELS GREAT TO BE MYSELF --

NOT TO TRY TO FIT IN.

NOW IT'S ME, AND THEY LIKE IT.

THEY DON'T JUDGE ME FOR IT.

WISH ME LUCK, GIRLS, BECAUSE I'M GOING TO WORK MY ASS OFF.

REMEMBER, MI AMOR, YOU CAN DO IT.

YEAH, I HAVE THAT LATIN BLOOD IN ME.

[ LAUGHTER ]

WHILE PAOLA'S DOWN IN MIAMI,

I'M SPENDING MOST OF MY TIME ALONE,

PACKING UP THE HOUSE, MEETING WITH THE REALTOR.

HOUSE IS REALLY EMPTY.

I'M TRYING TO MEET THE RESPONSIBILITIES

THAT I HAVE HERE IN OKLAHOMA

TO GET THIS HOUSE SOLD

SO THAT I CAN MOVE DOWN TO MIAMI AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE.

I WOULD RATHER SELL IT TO BE OFF MY HANDS.

THE MARKET JUST DOESN'T HAVE IT IN IT RIGHT NOW.

I DON'T THINK IT DOES.

OKAY.

ARE YOU TRAVELING DOWN TO SEE PAOLA?

FINANCIALLY, THAT'S NOT REALLY A MOVE TO MAKE.

I HAD NO IDEA SHE MOVED.

IT'S BEEN ABOUT THREE WEEKS NOW.

Russ: PAOLA'S OBVIOUSLY UNHAPPY IN OKLAHOMA,

BUT WHEN YOU GET MARRIED, YOU BECOME A TEAM.

YOU DON'T JUST FIND WHAT MAKES ONE PERSON HAPPY

AND LEAVE THE OTHER ONE BEHIND.

I FEEL BAD I SOLD YOU THIS HOUSE NOW.

¶ WEARY EYES ¶

¶ LOOK UP AT THE MARBLED SKY ¶

¶ KNOW THAT THE CLOUDS CAN'T HIDE ¶

¶ THE LIGHT THAT YOU SHINE ¶

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]

¶ DON'T YOU KNOW IT'S A BEAUTIFUL WORLD? ¶

¶ OOH, OOH, OOH ¶

¶¶

I'M LOREN, I'M FROM HOLLYWOOD, FLORIDA,

AND THIS IS MY DELICIOUS HUSBAND,

ALEXEI, FROM ISRAEL.

WE MET THREE YEARS AGO WHEN I WENT ON A TRIP TO ISRAEL.

WHEN I FIRST SAW ALEXEI, THAT WAS IT.

I THOUGHT IT WAS THIS CRAZY, LITTLE AMERICAN.

IT WASN'T LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT,

BUT IT WAS DEFINITELY LUST AT FIRST SIGHT.

BUT ONCE WE FELL IN LOVE,

WE KNEW WE COULDN'T BE WITHOUT EACH OTHER.

AND SO, WE APPLIED FOR A K-1 VISA.

SINCE ALEX GAVE UP EVERYTHING IN ISRAEL

TO COME BE WITH ME,

I GAVE UP MY LIFE AND MY JOB IN NEW YORK CITY.

I MOVED IN WITH MY PARENTS IN HOLLYWOOD, FLORIDA,

SO I COULD AFFORD ALL THE EXPENSES

TO BRING HIM HERE TO AMERICA.

Loren: WELCOME HOME!

[ BOTH CHUCKLE ]

THIS IS OUR HOME.

YOUR BAGS CAN'T EVEN FIT IN HERE.

THERE WERE DEFINITELY SOME BUMPS.

¶¶

Loren: WHY ARE YOU SO ANGRY AT ME?

BECAUSE I WAS [BLEEP] DISRESPECTED LIKE THAT.

YOU WERE WILLING TO JUST PACK UP AND LEAVE AND GO TO ISRAEL

BECAUSE OF THIS? YEAH.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

BUT WE KNEW WE REALLY COULDN'T LIVE WITHOUT EACH OTHER.

SO, AFTER 90 DAYS, WE WERE MARRIED.

All: MAZEL TOV!

NOW WE'RE MARRIED.

Man: ...ALEXEI AND LOREN FOR THE FIRST TIME AS HUSBAND AND WIFE!

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]

OUR WEDDING IN THE U.S. WAS GOOD,

BUT MOST OF MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY COULDN'T MAKE IT HERE.

Loren: SO, WE DECIDED TO RENEW OUR VOWS IN ISRAEL

SO ALL OF ALEX'S FAMILY AND FRIENDS

COULD CELEBRATE WITH US.

LOOK, THERE'S TEL AVIV TO THE RIGHT!

THE SKYLINE!

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]

WHILE I WAS IN ISRAEL, I OPENED UP TO ALEXEI'S FAMILY

ABOUT ME HAVING TOURETTE'S SYNDROME.

GO AHEAD. I CAN'T EVEN SAY IT.

GO AHEAD.

[ Voice breaking ] I DON'T KNOW WHY IT'S SO HARD.

IT'S OKAY.

I HAVE TOURETTE'S SYNDROME.

IT'S LIKE A NEUROLOGICAL AND NERVOUS-SYSTEM DISORDER

WHERE I INVOLUNTARY MOVEMENTS AND -- AND SOUNDS.

IT WAS REALLY HARD FOR ME TO DO, BUT I'M GLAD THAT I DID

BECAUSE IT BROUGHT US CLOSER AS A FAMILY.

I FEEL LIKE, WHILE IT WAS REALLY HARD FOR ME TO OPEN UP

ABOUT HAVING TOURETTE'S SYNDROME,

IT WAS THE BEST DECISION I MADE.

AND HAVING ALEX BY MY SIDE, LIKE, IT'S MADE IT A LOT EASIER.

SHE'S MORE CONFIDENT WITH THAT,

AND SHE SPEAKS ABOUT IT VERY OPENLY NOW.

IT'S GOOD FOR US, AND AS A COUPLE,

I THINK IT'S GOING TO BRING US EVEN STRONGER.

THANK YOU. YOU'RE WELCOME.

-HELLO. -HI! -HEY, GUYS.

HOW ARE YOU? HOW ARE YOU?

SO, TODAY WE'RE MEETING UP WITH MY PARENTS FOR LUNCH.

WE HAVEN'T REALLY SEEN THEM SINCE THE WEDDING.

SO, HOW HAVE YOU GUYS BEEN?

GOOD. GOOD.

WORK IS GOOD FOR ALEX. YEAH, VERY BUSY.

BUSY IS GOOD. YEAH.

I'M IN TRANSITION BETWEEN JOBS.

I HAVEN'T BEEN WORKING FOR A WHILE NOW.

I'M HAVING A VERY HARD TIME FINDING A JOB IN FLORIDA.

IT'S BEEN A LOT HARDER THAN I THOUGHT.

IF I COULD'VE DONE SOMETHING DIFFERENTLY

IN THE BEGINNING OF THIS RELATIONSHIP,

I PROBABLY WOULD'VE TRIED TO CONVINCE ALEX

TO GO TO NEW YORK INSTEAD OF BOTH OF US GOING TO FLORIDA.

BUT WE MOVED HERE, AND IT'S AWESOME, AND I LOVE IT HERE,

AND NOW THERE'S NO WAY WE'RE GOING TO GO ANYWHERE ELSE.

¶¶

MM-HMM.

YOU KNOW, YOU THINK A LOT WHEN YOU HAVE TIME,

AND I KEEP THINKING,

LIKE, IN NEW YORK, LIKE, I HAD A GREAT JOB

AND I HAD -- IT WAS A DIFFERENT LIFESTYLE.

OF COURSE.

IT WAS BUSY, AND I HAVE SO MUCH TIME.

LIKE, I'M REALLY MISSING IT.

I MISS THE HUSTLE AND BUSTLE, I MISS THE WEATHER CHANGES.

I TOLD YOU FLORIDA ISN'T NEW YORK.

WELL, NEW YORK'S BEEN ON MY MIND A LOT.

Alexei: WELL, LOREN LOVES NEW YORK.

SHE HAD A GREAT JOB, AND SHE HAD A COOL LIFE,

AND I UNDERSTAND ALL THAT,

BUT LATELY SHE JUST TALKS ABOUT IT SO MUCH,

AND IT'S NOT FAIR.

LIKE, I'M THE IMMIGRANT AT THE END OF THE DAY.

YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES IT FEELS A LITTLE BIT TOO MUCH.

LIKE, I FEEL LIKE SHE'S A LITTLE BIT SELFISH.

YOU KNOW, ALEX GAVE UP EVERYTHING TO COME BE WITH ME,

BUT I ALSO GAVE UP EVERYTHING TO BE WITH HIM

AND START OUR LIVES TOGETHER DOWN HERE.

BUT, IN NEW YORK, LIKE, I WAS SET.

WE'RE NOT REALISTICALLY MOVING TO NEW YORK RIGHT NOW.

I'M NOT MOVING TO NEW YORK, SO...

I WAS VERY LUCKY, AND I GOT A GOOD JOB,

AND SHE CAN GET ADJUSTED.

YOU CAN TAKE THE GIRL OUT OF THE CITY,

BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE THE CITY OUT OF THE GIRL.

JUST CAN'T.

SO, ON ANOTHER NOTE,

I REALLY WAS UPSET THAT SARAH COULDN'T COME TO THE WEDDING.

I KNOW SHE WAS AT THE WEDDING IN AMERICA,

BUT SHE WASN'T AT THE WEDDING IN ISRAEL, BUT I MISS HER.

I REALLY MISS HER, AND I'M THINKING

ABOUT GOING TO SEE HER... IN NEW YORK.

AGAIN WITH NEW YORK.

I HAVEN'T SEEN SARAH IN OVER A YEAR.

SHE'S MY BEST FRIEND.

BUT THE LAST IMPRESSION THAT ALEX HAS OF SARAH

IS THE BACHELORETTE PARTY, AND HE DOESN'T TRUST HER.

THE NIGHTLIFE IN NEW YORK

IS ONLY GOING TO GET YOU IN TROUBLE IF YOU GO WITH SARAH.

AND YOU KNOW IT YOURSELF.

OBVIOUSLY, LOREN IS NOT GOING TO TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER.

SHE'S GOING TO GO TO NEW YORK

AND HAVE HER GIRLS' WEEKEND WITH SARAH.

I'M JUST A LITTLE BIT WORRIED, 'CAUSE LAST TIME

THEY GOT TOGETHER, WE ALMOST DIDN'T GET MARRIED.

I DON'T KNOW IF NEW YORK IS THE PLACE TO MEET.

¶ FRESH JEANS, FRESH JEANS ¶

¶ FRESH KICKS, FRESH KICKS ¶

¶ FRESH JEANS, FRESH AND IN THE MOMENT ¶

¶ OKAY, FRESH 501s ¶

¶ AND SOME BRAND-NEW KICKS ¶

[ CELLPHONE DINGS ]

MY NAME IS MOHAMED.

I AM FROM TUNISIA, AND I AM 28 YEARS OLD.

I CAME TO AMERICA THREE YEARS AGO TO MARRY DANIELLE,

BUT WHEN I GOT HERE, I FIND OUT THAT SHE WAS UNSTABLE,

JEALOUS, AND IN DEBT,

AND SHE TURNED OUT A PERSON I CANNOT STAY WITH.

¶¶

Danielle: WHEN I WANT TO TALK ABOUT SOMETHING,

YOU DON'T EVER WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT.

I DECIDED TO LEAVE DANIELLE AND MOVE TO FLORIDA.

DANIELLE AND I SEPARATED, BUT WE ARE STILL MARRIED.

IT'S HARD FOR ME TO MOVE ON IN MY LIFE

BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T WANT TO LEAVE ME ALONE.

SHE EVEN CAME DOWN TO MIAMI

AND SHOWED UP TO MY HOUSE WITHOUT BEING INVITED.

THAT SHOWS HOW, REALLY, YOU ARE.

I AM GOING TO GUARANTEE I WILL GET YOUR [BLEEP] ASS

DEPORTED BECAUSE YOU'RE A [BLEEP] USER!

¶¶

AFTER SHE HAD MY ADDRESS, I KNEW THAT I HAVE TO LEAVE MIAMI.

I'M DOING THE BEST I CAN TO START ALL OVER AGAIN

IN SOMEWHERE NEW.

BUT IT'S HARD TO DO, BEING A FOREIGNER.

[ CELLPHONE RINGS ]

HELLO.

OKAY.

¶¶

I HAD TO DO THINGS FOR MONEY THAT I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD.

MOHAMED? YES, COME IN.

SO, WE STILL GOING TO THE SHOPPING CENTER, RIGHT?

YEAH, SHOPPING CENTER ON LITTLE ROAD.

YES.

¶¶

YOU NEED MORE A.C. OR SOMETHING?

NO, I'M FINE. ALL RIGHT.

I HAVE A JOB NOW AS A DRIVER, AND I MOVED TO PORT RICHEY,

FLORIDA, AND I HAVE MY OWN APARTMENT.

I'M MOVING ON FROM THE DRAMA WITH DANIELLE.

I JUST WANT MY DIVORCE AND FOR HER TO LEAVE ME ALONE.

[ KNOCKING AT DOOR ]

HELLO.

ARE YOU MOHAMED... "JOOWALLY"?

JBALI.

JBALI. YEAH.

¶¶

[ KNOCKING AT DOOR ]

¶¶

Mohamed: HELLO.

ARE YOU MOHAMED... "JOOWALLY"?

JBALI.

JBALI. YEAH.

I NEED YOU TO SIGN RIGHT HERE.

ALL RIGHT, THESE ARE FOR YOU.

¶¶

¶¶

I JUST GOT SERVED WITH ANNULMENT PAPERWORK.

I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT DANIELLE, SHE FILED FOR AN ANNULMENT AGAIN

BECAUSE LAST TIME WE SPOKE, WE AGREED FOR A DIVORCE.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT SHE'S TRYING TO DO,

WHY SHE'S DOING THIS TO ME.

IT'S SO FRUSTRATING THAT DANIELLE CHANGED HER MIND,

AND SHE JUST WENT FOR A SECOND ANNULMENT

BECAUSE SHE KEEPS DOING THE SAME ALL THE TIME --

LIKE, PROMISE ME SOMETHING AND THEN DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT,

SO IT'S FRUSTRATING.

¶¶

THIS IS SCARY FOR ME, BECAUSE LAST TIME,

WHEN I SPOKE TO A LAWYER,

HE TOLD ME IF THE ANNULMENT GO THROUGH,

I COULD GET DEPORTED.

I'M GOING TO CALL DANIELLE

AND TRY TO TALK TO HER ABOUT CHANGING HER MIND.

[ Line ringing ]

DANIELLE: Hello? HELLO.

Hi. HOW ARE YOU DOING?

I'm doing fine.

I JUST GOT SERVED NOW FOR THE ANNULMENT PAPERS.

I DON'T KNOW. WHAT IS THIS?

I re-filed the annulment,

and I'm not pulling it this time.

OH, REALLY? Yeah, really.

I WOULD DO ANYTHING UNDER THE LAW

TO STAY HERE IN THIS COUNTRY.

IF DANIELLE IS NOT GOING TO PULL THE ANNULMENT,

I HAVE TO GO TO OHIO AND SEE A LAWYER

AND TALK TO DANIELLE AND SEE

IF THERE IS ANY WAY TO FIX THESE PROBLEMS.

I THINK I'M COMING TO OHIO SOON.

I'M GOING TO GO TO THE COURTHOUSE

AND CHECK ABOUT IT, OKAY?

Okay.

IF YOU HAVE TIME, WE CAN SIT DOWN AND TALK.

We can sit down and talk.

I HOPE DANIELLE LISTEN TO ME WHEN I GO TO OHIO.

I DON'T THINK THAT SHE CAN FORCE ME TO LEAVE THE COUNTRY

BECAUSE IT'S NOT UP TO HER.

SHE IS TRYING TO RUIN MY LIFE, BUT THAT'S NOT RIGHT.

BYE. Okay, bye.

[ CELLPHONE BEEPS ]

¶¶

Paola: LAST TIME THAT I WENT TO MIAMI,

MY AGENT, CAROLINE, TOLD ME THAT I WILL HAVE

A LOT OF OPPORTUNITIES, AND THAT I WILL DO REALLY GOOD IN MIAMI.

THANK YOU.

THAT'S WHY I'M HERE -- I'M HERE TO WORK AND MAKE SOME MONEY

TO SUPPORT BOTH RUSS AND I.

HI!

OH, HAPPY TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

WELCOME TO MIAMI. THANK YOU.

SIENTATE, PLEASE.

I'M REALLY EXCITED TO START WORKING.

I'M READY TO START MAKING MONEY.

THANK YOU, LONZEN.

HOW DO YOU FEEL? GREAT TO BE HERE.

THAT WAS A BIG MOVE.

I SWEAR, PAOLA, I DIDN'T THINK YOU WERE GOING TO DO IT.

OH, REALLY? YEAH.

MY HUSBAND IS TRYING TO SELL THE HOUSE,

SO AS SOON AS HE SELL IT

OR RENT IT OR SOMETHING, HE WILL COME HERE,

BUT I'M NOT SURE WHEN THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN.

HONESTLY, I DIDN'T THINK SHE WAS GOING TO MOVE.

WHY? BECAUSE SHE'S MARRIED,

AND SOMETIMES YOU SACRIFICE YOUR DREAMS FOR YOUR FAMILY.

BY HER MOVING TO MIAMI, IT SHOWS THAT HER CAREER DOES COME FIRST,

AND I ADMIRE THAT IN HER.

I'M NOT GOING TO LIE, PAOLA, THIS IS NOT AN EASY BUSINESS.

THIS IS NOT AN EASY CAREER,

AND THE COMPETITION IN MIAMI

IS REALLY, REALLY, LIKE, STRONG.

YEAH.

SO, THE LOOK YOU HAVE NOW IS LIKE EVERYONE ELSE.

I WOULD GO BLOND. OH, REALLY?

BLOND, HIGHLIGHTS, VERY BEAUTIFUL.

STILL EXOTIC AND SEXY, BUT AT THE SAME TIME,

WHEN YOU GO TO A CASTING, YOU'RE GOING TO STAND OUT

WHILE EVERYONE ELSE HAS THE SAME LONG, BROWN/BLACK HAIR.

YEAH, DEFINITELY.

AWESOME.

AWESOME. [ LAUGHS ]

THIS IS A TOUGH COMPETITION.

SHE'S NOT THE ONLY EXOTIC ONE HERE IN MIAMI.

PAOLA HAS TO DO SOMETHING DRASTIC TO STAND OUT,

SO I HOPE PAOLA DOES NOT ACT LIKE A DIVA WITH ME.

YOU'RE ONLY GOING TO BE SUCCESSFUL

IF I TELL YOU THE HONEST TRUTH.

I DON'T SUGARCOAT ANYTHING, AND I DON'T PUT UP WITH B.S.

I'M VERY STRICT AND FIRM WITH ALL MY MODELS,

BUT IT'S ONLY BECAUSE I WANT YOU TO BE SUCCESSFUL.

MY GOAL IS TO WORK HARD FOR YOU

AND TO GET YOU ALL THE OPPORTUNITIES I CAN.

I WANT TO BRING YOU DIFFERENT TYPES OF JOBS --

MODELLING IN THE MUSIC VIDEO AND COMMERCIALS AND SOAP OPERAS,

YOU KNOW, FOR THE ENGLISH MARKET

AS WELL AS THE SPANISH MARKET.

YOU'RE BILINGUAL, YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL,

AND THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT IN THIS BUSINESS.

BUT I WANT YOU TO UNDERSTAND

YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE GREAT WEEKS WHERE YOU MAKE A LOT OF MONEY,

AND YOU'RE DOING AMAZING, AND YOU FEEL LIKE,

"OH, MY GOD, I COULD DO THIS FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE."

AND THEN SOMETIMES THERE'S GOING TO BE WEEKS

WHERE YOU'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE A JOB.

SO, THE FIRST THING WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT IS THE SMALL,

PART-TIME -- NOT LIKE AN OFFICE JOB,

BUT MAYBE, LIKE, BARTENDING AND STUFF.

I DON'T KNOW. I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT IT.

LIKE, I HAVE TO START SOMEHOW.

I DON'T THINK MY HUSBAND IS GOING TO BE

REALLY HAPPY WITH THAT.

HE'S EXPECTING ME TO START MAKING MONEY RIGHT AWAY.

DEPENDING ON THE GIG, YOU CAN START IN THE BEGINNING

MAKING $100, $250, MAYBE $350.

I'LL NEVER CALL YOU FOR LESS THAN $100, THAT'S FOR SURE.

I'M SUPPOSED TO BE MAKING A LOT OF MONEY RIGHT NOW

TO SUPPORT RUSS AND I,

BUT NOW IT'S LIKE IT'S NOT THE WAY IT WORKS.

IT WASN'T WHAT I WAS EXPECTING.

I'M TAKING THIS SERIOUS.

LIKE, I WANT TO DO THIS. I WANT TO MAKE THIS WORK.

YOU'RE DEDICATED TO THIS BUSINESS,

SO THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT.

I'M NOT PLANNING ON GOING BACK TO OKLAHOMA AT THIS POINT.

NO. I'M STAYING.

WE'RE NOT GOING BACK. WE'RE NOT GOING BACK.

WE'RE STAYING IN MIAMI.

WHEN RUSS FINDS OUT THAT I'M NOT MAKING THE MONEY

THAT I TOLD HIM RIGHT AWAY...

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

I WILL SEE YOU SOON.

AND IT'S, LIKE, OKAY, MY HUSBAND OR MY CAREER?

BUT I'M NOT COMING BACK TO OKLAHOMA.

¶¶

THIS NEIGHBORHOOD LOOKS PRETTY NICE.

¶¶

Jorge: SINCE WE GOT MARRIED, ANFISA WANTED A HOUSE,

SO TODAY, WE'RE GOING TO MEET UP WITH THE REALTOR

BECAUSE SHE'S NOT HAPPY IN THIS LITTLE APARTMENT.

WE NEED TO GET A BIGGER PLACE.

I'M REALLY WORRIED ABOUT WHERE THE REALTOR'S TAKING US TODAY,

'CAUSE WHAT ANFISA WANTS IS WAY OUT OF THE PRICE RANGE.

I TOLD MY REALTOR THAT MY BUDGET WAS ANYTHING UNDER $5,000,

BUT SHE TOLD ME THAT THIS HOUSE WAS A LITTLE MORE THAN THAT.

Anfisa: I CAN'T WAIT TO MOVE SOMEWHERE ELSE.

I HATE OUR TINY APARTMENT.

IT LOOKS POOR. [ CHUCKLES ]

IS THIS THE HOUSE?

¶¶

SO, DRIVING UP TO THE HOUSE, I WAS REALLY BLOWN AWAY.

IT LOOKS LIKE A CASTLE.

BUT I CAN ALREADY TELL IT'S OUT OF MY BUDGET.

HI, JORGE. HEY, ANFISA.

HOW NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN. COME ON IN.

WELL, WELCOME TO YOUR MINI-CHâTEAU.

THIS HOME IS FIVE-BEDROOM, FIVE-BATH, SO IT IS QUITE LARGE.

Anfisa: I CAN SEE MYSELF LIVING IN THAT HOUSE.

I LIKE THAT THERE IS A POOL IN THE HOUSE,

AND IT FEELS VERY SPACIOUS.

LET'S TAKE LOOK AT THE MASTER BEDROOM.

IT HAS ITS OWN FIREPLACE, AND IT'S NICE AND SPACIOUS.

THIS IS PROBABLY JUST AS BIG AS THE APARTMENT WE'RE IN.

REALLY? WELL, THERE YOU GO.

YOU'RE DEFINITELY UPGRADING A LITTLE BIT, THEN.

Jorge: SO, ALREADY, I CAN SEE

THAT ANFISA'S REALLY LIKING THIS HOUSE.

I PROMISED HER THE LIFE HERE IN AMERICA,

BUT I DON'T KNOW IT'S SOMETHING THAT I CAN AFFORD.

NOW, THIS BATHROOM IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES.

IT HAS THE CLAW-FOOT TUB HERE, WHICH IS ANY GIRL'S DREAM.

Anfisa: BACK IN RUSSIA, SIZE OF THE HOUSE SHOWS

HOW WELL WE'RE DOING, AND THE HOUSE SEEMS VERY BIG.

ACTUALLY HAVE HIS AND HER CLOSETS,

WHICH I THINK YOU'LL LOVE A LOT.

I WILL. [ CHUCKLES ]

ON THE LEFT, IT'S A LITTLE BIT LARGER,

SO THAT'S THE "HERS" CLOSET, OF COURSE,

AND ON THE RIGHT WE HAVE HIS CLOSET

WITH LOTS OF SPACE FOR THE TWO OF YOU.

OR I CAN JUST HAVE BOTH TO MYSELF.

I KNOW WE WANTED MORE SPACE, BUT THIS HOUSE IS RIDICULOUS.

THE MONTHLY PAYMENT ON THIS HOME IS $7,800.

THEY ASKED FOR A SECURITY DEPOSIT,

SO THAT WOULD BE ABOUT $15,600 TO GET STARTED.

WOW, YEAH, THAT'S A STEEP NUMBER. UM...

OKAY, WELL, I'LL GIVE YOU BOTH A MOMENT TO DISCUSS THINGS,

AND I'LL WAIT DOWNSTAIRS. THANK YOU.

WHEN A WIFE WANTS A HOUSE, AND THE HUSBAND CAN'T AFFORD IT,

IT GETS VERY TENSE.

A LOT OF TIMES, IT PUTS US IN AN ODD SITUATION

'CAUSE WE DEFINITELY HAVE TO MAKE SURE

WE GET THEM ON THE SAME PAGE.

I LOVE IT, YOU LOVE IT.

I MEAN, IT'S REALLY NICE.

WELL THEN, LET'S RENT IT IF YOU LIKE IT.

IF YOU CAN AFFORD THIS, LET'S GET THIS.

CAN YOU AFFORD THIS?

I MEAN, IN ORDER FOR ME TO RENT A HOUSE IN THIS BUDGET RANGE,

I WOULD NEED A LITTLE BIT OF EXTRA TIME

TO GET SOME MONEY TOGETHER.

HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU NEED?

I DON'T KNOW, TO BE HONEST WITH YOU.

IT COULD BE A MONTH OR TWO MONTHS FROM NOW.

WHY? WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO IN THIS MONTH TO TWO MONTHS?

I'M GOING TO WORK.

I JUST THINK THAT IT'S A LITTLE OUT OF THE BUDGET.

Anfisa: JORGE SAYS THAT THIS HOUSE IS TOO EXPENSIVE,

AND IT MAKES ME CONFUSED 'CAUSE HE SAID HE HAD MONEY,

HE COULD AFFORD IT.

HE SAID HE GOING TO GIVE ME EVERYTHING I WANT,

AND IF THAT'S WHAT I WANT,

HE SHOULD BE ABLE TO GIVE IT TO ME.

SO, THERE'S SOMETHING I HAVEN'T TOLD ANFISA

ABOUT MY FINANCIAL SITUATION, AND I'M REALLY WORRIED,

'CAUSE I HAVE A FEELING SHE'S GOING TO BE REALLY MAD.

HOW DO I KNOW IT'S NOT JUST ANOTHER EMPTY PROMISE?

¶¶

Chantel: THINGS BETWEEN PEDRO AND MY FAMILY HAVE BEEN STRAINED.

THEY DON'T TRUST HIM.

Mohamed: DANIELLE IS TRYING TO PROVE THAT I WAS HERE

JUST FOR THE GREEN CARD.

FIRST, LET ME TELL YOU HOW SERIOUS THAT IS.

THE FIRST TIME BORDER PATROL WALKS UP BEHIND YOU,

YOU CAN BE DEPORTED.

¶¶

HI. HI, WELCOME.

I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT. OKAY, RIGHT THIS WAY.

THANK YOU.

Paola: TODAY, I'M GOING TO DO A MAKEOVER.

I'M GOING TO CHANGE MY LOOK.

I'M GOING TO GO BLOND.

IT WAS A SUGGESTION FROM CAROLINE, MY AGENT.

I DON'T KNOW. I JUST WANT TO GIVE IT A TRY.

MAYBE SHE'S RIGHT, AND MAYBE I WILL LOOK BETTER BLOND.

PAOLA? HI.

HEY, MARIO. NICE TO MEET YOU.

SO NICE TO MEET YOU. HOW ARE YOU DOING?

I'M DOING GREAT, THANK YOU.

COOL, COOL. TALK TO ME. WHAT ARE WE DOING TODAY?

I'M GOING TO GO BLOND.

YOU WANT TO GO BLOND? YES.

REALLY? YES.

COOL.

IT'S KIND OF SCARY TO CHANGE

BECAUSE I'M USED TO HAVE MY DARK HAIR FOR, LIKE --

JUST FOR FOREVER.

THAT'S LIKE MY LATIN STYLE.

BUT I WANT TO LEAVE THAT BLACK HAIR BEHIND IN OKLAHOMA,

THAT GIRL, AND I'M GOING TO BRING SOMETHING

BRIGHTER IN HERE TO MIAMI.

I WORK WITH A MODELLING AGENCY.

YEAH, AND SO, I JUST MOVED HERE

BECAUSE SHE OFFERED ME A CONTRACT, SO...

COOL. WHERE'D YOU MOVE FROM?

I WAS LIVING IN OKLAHOMA.

YOU WERE LIVING IN OKLAHOMA?

YES.

WOW, YEAH, WE HAVE TO MAKE YOU BLOND.

BUT MY HUSBAND, HE'S STILL IN OKLAHOMA.

WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT MIAMI --

MIAMI'S THE MARRIAGE KILLER.

I DIDN'T WANT TO TELL RUSS THAT I'M GOING TO CHANGE MY HAIR.

I WANT TO KEEP IT AS A SURPRISE.

I REALLY DON'T KNOW HOW HE'S GOING TO REACT,

BUT I HOPE HE LIKE IT.

THIS IS ROBERT. I'M ROB.

PAO. NICE TO MEET YOU. YOU GUYS HAVE FUN,

AND I'LL SEE YOU IN A LITTLE BIT.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.

YOU READY TO GET STARTED? YES.

¶¶

¶ NO, NO, NO ¶

¶ DON'T BE SO FAST ¶

¶ TO UNDERESTIMATE THE LIGHTER SHADE ¶

¶ DON'T SIP THE HATER-ADE ¶

¶ BECAUSE THE BLONDES HAVE MORE FUN ¶

IT'S DEFINITELY A LITTLE MORE EXPENSIVE

THAN YOUR DARK HAIR, THAT'S FOR SURE.

¶ EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT THE BLONDES ¶

¶ OH, OH, OH, OH ¶

¶ SIT BACK, RELAX, AND JUST ENJOY THE VIEW ¶

YOU HAVE TO SPEND MONEY TO MAKE MONEY, RIGHT?

YEAH.

¶ BLONDES HAVE MORE FUN ¶

¶ EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT THE BLONDES HAVE MORE FUN ¶

Mario: SO, WE'RE GOING TO BLOW-DRY IT,

AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO TRIM IT,

AND THEN WE'LL CURL IT AFTERWARDS.

¶¶

YOU READY? YOU SURE?

OH, I DON'T KNOW.

YEAH? YEAH.

COOL.

[ GASPS ] OH, MY GOD!

THIS IS AWESOME!

HOW DO YOU FEEL? BLOND.

YEAH, SUPER BLOND.

WELCOME TO MIAMI.

BYE-BYE BLACK HAIR.

MY HAIR LOOKS UNBELIEVABLE.

I LOOK LIKE A COMPLETELY NEW PERSON.

LOOK GOOD. [ GIGGLES ]

I'M REALLY BLOND RIGHT NOW.

GOOD JOB.

YOU GUYS MAKE ME LOOK LIKE A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PERSON.

I LOVE IT.

IT FEELS AMAZING.

I FEEL, I DON'T KNOW, READY TO START WORKING.

[ LAUGHS ]

THANK YOU SO MUCH, GUYS.

OKAY, NOW THIS IS THE FUN PART.

[ LAUGHS ]

CHANGING MY HAIR FROM DARK TO BLOND, IT COST $450.

I'M NOT EVEN GOING TO MENTION THAT TO RUSS.

HE WILL KILL ME!

I KNOW THAT CAROLINE WARNED ME THAT I WON'T BE MAKING

AS MUCH MONEY AS I THOUGHT,

BUT YOU'VE GOT TO INVEST IN YOURSELF

IN ORDER TO MAKE MONEY, AND THAT'S WHAT I'M DOING.

HERE YOU GO. THANKS SO MUCH.

I KNOW THAT I'M GOING TO START GETTING A LOT OF GIGS.

I BELIEVE IN THAT. I DON'T KNOW.

I HAD A FEELING. I'M REALLY POSITIVE.

THIS IS A NEW ME.

THIS IS A NEW PAO.

¶¶

¶ YOU CAN CALL ME SUPERSTAR ¶

¶ OOH, WHOA ¶

¶ YOU CAN CALL ME SUPERSTAR ¶

¶ OOH, WHOA ¶

Anfisa: TODAY, I'M GOING OUT SHOPPING WITH MY FRIEND MIRANDA.

MIRANDA'S MY ONLY FRIEND.

THIS ONE?

I LIKE THEM A LOT, BUT THEY'RE [BLEEP] EXPENSIVE.

MIRANDA WORKS AT THE JEWELRY STORE

WHERE JORGE CAME TO PICK UP A RING FOR ME,

AND WE BECAME FRIENDS.

I THINK WE HAVE A LOT IN COMMON.

SHE'S A STRONG WOMAN, SHE SPEAKS HER MIND,

SHE DOESN'T BEAT AROUND THE BUSH.

OH, I LIKE THAT.

I DON'T THINK I COULD PULL THOSE OFF.

WHY NOT?

I DON'T HAVE THE BODY FOR IT.

LIKE, YOU HAVE GOOD HIPS.

LIKE, MY HIPS ARE, LIKE...

I DON'T KNOW.

IT'S NICE TO SPEND SOME TIME WITH MY FRIEND

AND BE AWAY FROM JORGE,

BECAUSE HE'S BEEN GETTING ON MY NERVES LATELY.

HE PROMISED ME A NICE LIFE HERE, BUT HE CAN'T AFFORD THE HOUSE,

AND HE HASN'T BOUGHT ME ANYTHING THAT I WANT LATELY.

SO, DID JORGE GIVE YOU A BUDGET FOR TODAY?

LIKE, HOW MANY THINGS DO YOU THINK YOU'LL GET?

I DON'T KNOW.

HE'S HAD...

A LOT OF PROBLEMS LATELY WITH MONEY.

JORGE USED TO SAY THAT I COULD GET WHATEVER I WANT,

BUT IT ALL HAS CHANGED SINCE I CAME TO UNITED STATES.

IT MAKES ME FEEL MAD AND UPSET BECAUSE I LEFT EVERYTHING,

AND I THINK HE OWES ME FOR THAT.

WHEN I WAS IN RUSSIA, WHEN WE HAD LONG-DISTANCE RELATIONSHIP,

IT WAS EASY FOR HIM TO PRETEND TO BE SOMEBODY ELSE.

SO, NOW THAT I'M HERE, I SEE HOW THINGS ARE,

AND I DON'T REALLY LIKE IT.

I THINK A LOT OF AMERICANS HAVE THIS STEREOTYPE

ABOUT BEAUTIFUL RUSSIAN WOMAN

DATING SOME AMERICAN MAN JUST FOR MONEY,

BUT WHO WOULD WANT TO DATE A BROKE MAN, REALLY?

LET'S BE HONEST.

ONCE YOU GET YOUR GREEN CARD, LIKE, DO YOU HAVE ANY FEAR ABOUT

WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN BETWEEN YOU AND JORGE.

HONESTLY, I DON'T KNOW.

I'M TIRED OF PEOPLE SAYING THAT,

"OH, SHE'S GOING TO GET HER GREEN CARD.

SHE'S GOING TO LEAVE."

IT'S NOT BECAUSE I'M GOING TO GET MY GREEN CARD

AND I'M LEAVING, IT'S BECAUSE HE LIED TO ME.

COULD...JORGE DO ANYTHING TO REGAIN YOUR TRUST

OR, YOU KNOW, FIX THE MARRIAGE?

OF COURSE HE COULD DO SOMETHING.

HE COULD WORK MORE, MAKE MORE MONEY,

AND KEEP HIS PROMISES.

I THINK THAT ALL THE PROMISES THAT JORGE MADE

AND DIDN'T KEEP IS ABSOLUTE CRAP.

HE PROMISED HER THE WORLD.

SHE MADE A CRAZY SACRIFICE TO MOVE ACROSS THE WORLD,

AND IT COMES TO WHAT? NOTHING.

YOU GUYS ARE MARRIED, AND HE'S GOT YOU.

BUT NOW IT'S LIKE WHAT INCENTIVE DOES HE HAVE TO CHANGE NOW?

YEAH. I FEEL LIKE HE'S NOT GOING TO CHANGE.

IF YOU AREN'T HAPPY, YOU NEED TO MOVE ON.

¶¶

Jorge: I'VE BEEN WORKING ALL DAY.

ANFISA'S BEEN SHOPPING, SO RIGHT NOW

I'M HEADING OVER TO PICK HER UP.

¶¶

HI. WHAT'S WITH ALL THIS?

TODAY WAS ONE OF THOSE DAYS WHERE I DIDN'T MAKE MUCH MONEY,

AND WHEN I SEE HER, AND SHE HAS A BUNCH OF BAGS,

I'M JUST THINKING, LIKE, "WHAT DID SHE DO?

WHAT DID SHE BUY?"

HOW MUCH DID YOU SPEND?

NOT MUCH. IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, "IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL"?

Anfisa: WHEN JORGE SAYS THAT I SPEND TOO MUCH,

I THINK, "UH, YEAH, YOU KNEW THAT.

WHY ARE YOU COMPLAINING NOW?"

IT LOOKS LIKE YOU SPENT A LOT.

I ONLY SPENT $250. YOU CAN AFFORD IT.

...AND NOW YOU DON'T HAVE MONEY FOR NOTHING.

IF YOU'RE A MILLIONAIRE, THIS IS NOT MUCH FOR YOU.

[ SIGHS ]

I HAVE SOMETHING THAT I REALLY NEED TO TELL HER,

AND SHE'S REALLY GOING TO GET UPSET.

BUSINESS IS SLOW, AND I HAVEN'T BEEN DOING,

YOU KNOW, THE SAME AS BEFORE.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

AREN'T YOU A MILLIONAIRE?

NO.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN "NO"? THAT'S WHAT YOU TOLD ME.

I'M NOT A MILLIONAIRE.

I'M JUST TRYING TO BE HONEST WITH YOU.

IN FACT, IN ALL HONESTY, I AM IN A LITTLE DEBT.

WHAT? WHAT DEBT?

¶¶

BUSINESS IS SLOW, AND I HAVEN'T BEEN DOING,

YOU KNOW, THE SAME AS BEFORE.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

I'M NOT A MILLIONAIRE.

I'M JUST TRYING TO BE HONEST WITH YOU.

IN FACT, IN ALL HONESTY, I AM IN A LITTLE DEBT.

WHAT? WHAT DEBT?

I GOT IN DEBT BEFORE US BEING MARRIED.

AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME?

UM...IT'S JUST SOME ACCOUNTS THAT I FELL SHORT ON

BEFORE GETTING MARRIED WITH ANFISA.

BUT I LOST THE MONEY BECAUSE...

YOU JUST HAVEN'T BEEN HONEST WITH ME.

WELL, I'M TELLING YOU NOW.

YOU SHOULD HAVE TOLD ME BEFORE.

I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN HONEST WITH YOU,

AND YOU ALWAYS LIE TO ME.

YOU PROMISED ME I WILL GET WHATEVER I WANT.

WELL, TIMES HAVE CHANGED.

AND IF YOU'RE NOT READY TO ADAPT...

I'M NOT GOING TO ADAPT.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN, "ADAPT"? ADAPT TO WHAT?

TO YOUR LIES?

IT'S NOT GOING TO WORK LIKE THAT.

Anfisa: JORGE CONFESSES TO ME THAT HE'S IN DEBT,

AND I THINK IT'S [BLEEP]

THAT'S STUPID AND IRRESPONSIBLE OF HIM.

WHY DO YOU BRING YOUR FIANCéE FROM ABROAD

AND GETTING MARRIED WHEN YOU'RE IN DEBT,

WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE YOUR [BLEEP] TOGETHER?

WHEN YOU TOLD ME HAVE IT ALL ALREADY

AND YOU'RE GONNA GIVE ME WHATEVER I WANT.

BUSINESS DOESN'T GO WELL, WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO?

BUSINESS NEVER WENT WELL.

YOU JUST LIED TO ME. HOW DO YOU KNOW?

WHEN I WAS IN RUSSIA, YOU WERE LYING TO ME.

HOW DO YOU KNOW? DON'T INTERRUPT ME.

MAYBE I EXAGGERATED A LITTLE BIT TO ANFISA

ABOUT HOW MUCH MONEY I HAD,

BUT I SPENT EVERYTHING I HAD TRYING TO IMPRESS HER.

WHERE DO YOU THINK ALL THIS MONEY

THAT YOU SPEND ON SHOPPING -- WHERE DOES IT COME FROM?

THIS IS NOTHING!

ALL THIS STUFF THAT YOU'RE SAYING IS SO STUPID,

DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE. IT'S CHILDISH.

WHAT'S CHILDISH IS YOUR LIE.

SO, NOW THAT ANFISA KNOWS THAT I'M IN DEBT,

I'M WORRIED THAT SHE'S GONNA EITHER LEAVE ME

OR PUT ME MORE IN DEBT.

EITHER WAY, IT'S NOT GONNA BE GOOD.

IT JUST MEANS THAT HE'S BEEN LYING TO ME THE ENTIRE TIME,

AND I FEEL LIKE I CAN'T TRUST HIM ANYMORE.

¶¶

I'M CHANTEL, AND THIS IS MY HUSBAND, PEDRO.

[ CHUCKLES ]

AMOR, IS THIS OKAY?

WE MET BECAUSE I WANTED TO LEARN SPANISH,

SO I WENT TO THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC.

¶¶

WHAT DID YOU THINK?

AND WHAT ELSE?

WHEN I FIRST MET PEDRO,

I WAS ATTRACTED TO HIM INSTANTLY.

YES, I WAS SCARED THE FIRST TIME.

[ LAUGHS ]

I DIDN'T KNOW IF HE REALLY WANTED TO TAKE MY ORGANS

AND KIDNAP ME AND CHOP ME UP. [ LAUGHS ]

WE STARTED DATING RIGHT AFTER WE MET,

AND I VISITED HIM SEVERAL TIMES.

AND ON ONE TRIP, HE PROPOSED TO ME.

OHH.

¶¶

WE APPLIED FOR THE FIANCé VISA

SO THAT PEDRO COULD COME BACK

TO THE UNITED STATES AND LIVE WITH ME.

[ SIGHS ]

AAH!

PEDRO!

AAH!

BABY!

OH, MY GOD.

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, BABY.

I WAS SO EXCITED ABOUT BEING ENGAGED,

BUT I DIDN'T TELL ANYBODY THAT WE WERE GOING TO GET MARRIED

BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID OF THOSE STEREOTYPES

THAT HE COULD BE USING ME FOR A GREEN CARD.

I TOLD MY PARENTS THAT PEDRO WAS COMING OVER ON A STUDENT VISA.

SO, PEDRO, WHAT ARE YOU STUDYING IN COLLEGE?

A LITTLE ENGLISH FOR ONE.

OH, HE'S GOING TO STUDY ENGLISH FOR A YEAR?

-YES. -Sí.

Chantel: THERE WAS LOTS OF PRESSURE DURING THE 90 DAYS,

AND BECAUSE OF THE LIE,

THEY FELT LIKE HE WAS HIDING SOMETHING.

MY FAMILY, THEY'RE NERVOUS.

-OF ME? -YES.

MY FAMILY NERVOUS.

I DON'T KNOW, MAN.

BUT I FINALLY DECIDED TO TELL THEM

RIGHT BEFORE WE HAD TO GET MARRIED.

IT COULD'VE BEEN DONE BETTER.

GOOD NEWS OR BAD NEWS?

BETTER BE GOOD. BETTER BE GOOD NEWS.

SO, PEDRO IS NOT HERE ON A STUDENT VISA.

HE'S ACTUALLY HERE ON A K-1 VISA.

THE K-1 VISA IS A FIANCé VISA.

AND WE HAVE TO GET MARRIED ON THURSDAY.

MY PARENTS WERE SHOCKED,

AND THEY DIDN'T TAKE THE NEWS WELL.

WHEN PEDRO AND I GOT MARRIED,

I WAS SO HAPPY MY FAMILY SHOWED UP.

YOU LOOK VERY NICE.

I WISH THAT I HAD TOLD THEM BEFORE

SO THAT WE CAN HAVE EVERYBODY THERE,

AND I COULD HAVE ALL MY FRIENDS SEE ME GET MARRIED

TO THE LOVE OF MY LIFE.

Officiant: WE ARE GATHERED TOGETHER HERE TO JOIN TOGETHER

THIS MAN AND THIS WOMAN IN HOLY MATRIMONY.

YOU MAY KISS YOUR BRIDE.

¶¶

YOU LOVED OUR WEDDING, RIGHT, BABY?

¶¶

Chantel: I'M WITH THE LOVE OF MY LIFE EVERY DAY,

WAKING UP TO HIM, COMING HOME TO HIM.

THAT'S THE BEST PART.

Pedro: [ YAWNS ] I NEED TO GO TO BED, BABY.

YOU JUST WANT TO GO BACK TO BED.

YEP.

TOO BAD.

GOT TO GO TO WORK.

PEDRO FINALLY GOT HIS GREEN CARD

AND HE'S WORKING AS A DISHWASHER AT A RESTAURANT

AND ALSO WORKING IN A WAREHOUSE.

I'M GOING TO SCHOOL, AND I'M WORKING FULL TIME, AS WELL.

IS THE HONEYMOON OVER?

I MEAN...

HE'S TELLING ME NO.

OKAY.

HE'S STILL ROMANTIC.

I MEAN...

¶¶

IT'S 55 CENTS PER OUNCE.

Chantel: GOTCHA.

OUNCE.

THANK YOU.

THE 90 DAYS WAS WORTH THE STRUGGLE.

BUT IF I COULD DO IT AGAIN,

I WOULD'VE DONE IT TOTALLY DIFFERENTLY.

EVER SINCE WE'VE BEEN MARRIED,

I FEEL LIKE WE HARDLY EVER SEE MY FAMILY.

YOU KNOW, I NO FEEL VERY COMFORTABLE.

I NO FEEL COMFORTABLE IN YOUR FAMILY, BABY.

SINCE WE DIDN'T HANDLE THE SITUATION RIGHT THE FIRST TIME,

THINGS BETWEEN ME, PEDRO, AND MY FAMILY HAVE BEEN STRAINED

'CAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW HIM.

THEY DON'T TRUST HIM.

THEY'LL COME AROUND.

I WISH THAT PEDRO WOULD BE ON GOOD TERMS WITH MY FAMILY.

YEAH.

Chantel: SO WE CAME UP WITH THE IDEA OF HAVING A WEDDING

IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC.

IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE GO AND LET MY FAMILY SEE

WHERE HE'S FROM, WHERE HE GREW UP.

I FEEL LIKE IT WOULD BE A NICE IDEA, YOU KNOW?

THEY GOT TO MEET SOMETIME.

YOU THINK THEY DON'T WANT TO GO?

YEAH.

I'M A LITTLE WORRIED ABOUT RIVER,

BUT I THINK THEY CAN AGREE THAT IT'S ONLY RIGHT

THAT THEY MEET YOUR FAMILY.

I WANT TO MAKE THIS RIGHT FOR OUR FAMILIES.

TOGETHER.

¶¶

OH, MY GOD. I WANT TO SEE YOU.

ALEXEI'S STILL MAD AT MY BEST FRIEND, SARAH,

ABOUT THE BACHELORETTE PARTY.

SO, I WAS THINKING NEW YORK.

Is Alex gonna be okay with you coming?

IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BE IN THIS RELATIONSHIP

BECAUSE OF MONEY...

BECAUSE YOU LIED TO ME.

Jorge: IT JUST SEEMS SO FISHY.

THE WORD "DIVORCE" COMES INTO MY HEAD.

AT THIS POINT, I FEEL LIKE YOU SHOULDN'T DESERVE ANYTHING.

THERE YOU ARE!

Hey! HI!

Loren: SO, TODAY I'M SKYPING WITH SARAH.

IT'S BEEN LIKE A YEAR AND A HALF

SINCE WE'VE SEEN EACH OTHER.

HOW ARE YOU?

OH, YOU LOOK GREAT.

Really? Oh, well, I was just trying to, like,

Freshen up before I talked to you.

I've been trying to do better with my eyebrows

'cause I never did them before.

OH, MY GOD. I MISS YOU SO MUCH.

I HAVEN'T SEEN SARAH IN OVER A YEAR

BECAUSE SHE LIVES IN BUFFALO, NEW YORK,

AND ALEXEI'S STILL MAD AT SARAH ABOUT THE BACHELORETTE PARTY.

STRIPPERS ARE PAID ENTERTAINMENT.

THERE'S NO REAL MEN HITTING ON YOUR GIRLFRIEND.

AND BECAUSE OF THAT, HE DIDN'T WANT HER TO COME

TO THE WEDDING IN ISRAEL.

YOU AND I DISCUSSED, LIKE, SARAH COMING TO THE WEDDING.

MM-HMM. AND SHE'S MY BEST FRIEND.

I DON'T LIKE HER. THE IMPRESSION I GOT FROM HER IS NO GOOD.

I'm sorry I didn't make it to Israel,

but you know what? It was probably good, though.

Because I would have wanted all of your time.

YEAH.

I RESPECT ALEXEI'S WISHES TO NOT HAVE SARAH COME

TO THE WEDDING IN ISRAEL,

BUT SHE'S MY BEST FRIEND.

I WANTED HER THERE WITH ME FOR THAT MOMENT.

I WANT TO SEE YOU.

Yeah! Let's plan something.

It's been over a year!

I KNOW.

So, do you want to come up to Buffalo?

It's like 18 degrees out!

NO. I DON'T WANT TO GO TO BUFFALO.

That's why I wear a blanket as an outfit.

NO, I WAS THINKING NEW YORK.

[ Gasps ] That's such a good idea.

BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE, IN NEW YORK,

I COULD, LIKE, BE A LITTLE BIT OF ME AGAIN,

LIKE, THE HUSTLE AND BUSTLE, THE YELLING, THE HONKING.

WE COULD RIDE TAXI CABS.

WE CAN GO OUT.

LIKE, I THINK THAT IT WOULD BE REALLY FUN.

Is Alex gonna be okay with you coming?

UM, YOU KNOW WHAT?

HERE'S THE THING.

ALEX HAS TO UNDERSTAND THAT YOU'RE MY BEST FRIEND.

AND I DON'T THINK HE'S GONNA BE HAPPY

THAT WE'RE GONNA GO TO NEW YORK

BECAUSE HE KNOWS HOW MUCH I MISS IT.

BUT...OH, WELL.

I KNOW ALEXEI DOESN'T LIKE THE IDEA OF ME GOING TO NEW YORK

TO SEE SARAH, BUT I REALLY NEED TO SEE HER

BECAUSE THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT MY BACHELORETTE PARTY

THAT HE DOESN'T KNOW,

AND I KNOW I NEED TO TALK TO SARAH ABOUT IT.

AND, YOU KNOW WHAT?

I JUST -- IT'S, LIKE, WEIGHING ON ME.

I NEED TO JUST COME CLEAN WITH EVERYTHING.

THAT I'M CONSIDERING BUYING

THAT WOULD BE THE FIRST PLACE THAT I'VE OWNED ON MY OWN.

-DO YOU WANT TO GO IN? -YES.

IT'S BEEN NICE NOT DEALING WITH MOHAMED

BECAUSE I'M ABLE TO MOVE FORWARD

AND DO THINGS THAT I'VE WANTED TO DO.

I MEAN, IT'S BEEN HARD

BECAUSE IT'S HARD TO DO IT BY YOURSELF.

BUT I'M DOING IT.

Beth: THIS IS -- THIS IS NICE.

YOU HAVE A SLIDING-GLASS DOOR HERE TO THE DECK, TOO, HUH?

THAT'S A GOOD-SIZE DECK.

YEAH.

I'VE NEVER OWNED A HOME BEFORE.

ME AND MY KIDS HAVE NOT ALWAYS HAD A STABLE HOME IN THE PAST.

I'VE HAD ISSUES WITH FINANCES AND STUFF LIKE THAT,

SO WE ALWAYS HAD TO MOVE.

I'M REALLY PROUD OF HER.

I'VE SEEN A HUGE CHANGE IN HER DEMEANOR.

SHE'S HAPPY NOW.

SHE'S BUYING HER OWN PLACE, EVEN THOUGH IT'S A TRAILER.

IT'S A START.

IT'S SOMETHING THAT SHE'S GONNA OWN FOR THE FIRST TIME.

YEAH. YOUR OWN PLACE!

THAT'S -- THAT'S EXCITING.

YEAH. YEAH. [ LAUGHS ]

IT'S ALL UP FROM HERE, GIRL.

YEAH. [ BOTH LAUGH ]

SO, YEAH.

YOU KNOW, ARE YOU TRULY, FINALLY OVER MOHAMED?

I'M TRULY OVER HIM. GOOD.

BUT IT'S STILL A LONG ROAD.

AND HE'S COMING TO OHIO.

[ SCOFFS ]

HE'S WANTING TO MEET WITH ME.

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT WHAT, BUT [laughing] WE KNOW.

OH, I THINK WE KNOW.

IT'S ABOUT THE ANNULMENT.

OBVIOUSLY, HE THINKS YOU'RE DUMB ENOUGH FOR ROUND TWO.

NO, I'M NOT DUMB ENOUGH TO PULL IT.

I WANT THIS OVER WITH.

I'M NOT PULLING THE ANNULMENT.

BECAUSE I WANT THIS TO END

'CAUSE I'M TIRED OF THE DRAMA.

AND I WANT TO CONCENTRATE ON MY FUTURE.

I KNOW YOU STILL HAD FEELINGS

LIKE MAYBE YOU COULD TRY AND WORK IT OUT.

I REALLY DON'T CARE THAT HE'S COMING.

AND YOU DIDN'T INVITE HIM UP HERE?

I DIDN'T INVITE HIM.

HE CAME ON HIS OWN.

Beth: I WORRY ABOUT DANIELLE SEEING MOHAMED THIS WEEKEND.

IF HE SCREWS UP ANY OF HER HAPPINESS

BY BEING IN TOWN AND TRYING TO, UM, YOU KNOW,

SCREW UP THE GOOD THING SHE HAS GOING ON,

OH, MY GOODNESS. I'LL BE PILOTING THE PLANE

BACK TO TUNISIA FOR HIM.

WHEN RUSS AND JUAN MET IN COLOMBIA,

IT WAS -- IT WAS TOUGH.

THEY BOTH DON'T LIKE EACH OTHER.

IT'S JUST BECAUSE THEY WANT PAO.

[ Laughing ] THEY WANT ME.

AND JUAN GET ANNOYED BY EVERYTHING ABOUT RUSS.

HE'S NOT BORING! HE'S NO...

IS HE REALLY THAT BAD?

HE'S FUN.

NO, HE'S NOT. HE'S NOT BORING.

[ LAUGHTER ]

JUAN IS...

HE LIKES THE CONTROVERSY.

HE LIKES MAKE PEOPLE FIGHT.

[ LAUGHTER ]

POOR RUSS.

NO, HE -- I LOVE HIM.

HE'S NOT FROM THE FARM.

-NO? -NO!

WHATEVER HE THINK, HE SAY IT OUT LOUD.

THAT'S LIKE -- THAT'S LIKE ME, YOU KNOW.

WE DON'T HAVE A FILTER, WE JUST SAY IT.

BUT MOST OF THE TIME, I TAKE IT AS A JOKE.

THAT IS WHY I LAUGH.

IT'S BECAUSE -- IT'S BECAUSE RUSS DOESN'T LIKE HIM EITHER.

THAT'S WHAT IT IS.

DO YOU THINK RUSS IS NOT GONNA BE HAPPY

THAT YOU GUYS ARE HANGING OUT?

I RESPECT MY HUSBAND,

BUT I WANT HIM TO RESPECT MY FRIENDSHIP WITH JUAN, YOU KNOW?

MNH-MNH.

Paola: I HAVEN'T TOLD RUSS THAT JUAN IS IN MIAMI

BECAUSE THE FIRST THING THAT'S GONNA COME TO HIS MIND

IS LIKE, "PARTY!" [ CHUCKLES ]

[ LAUGHTER ]

I HAVE MY CRAZY FRIEND HERE,

SO HE'S NOT GONNA LIKE IT.

I KNOW HE DOESN'T -- HE WASN'T IMAGINING ME

WITH SOMEONE LIKE RUSS.

BUT I FELL IN LOVE WITH HIM, AND THIS IS MY HUSBAND.

JUAN, DON'T BE MEAN.

DON'T -- [ SPEAKING SPANISH ]

¿POR QUé?

REALLY? EVERYBODY --

A LOT OF PEOPLE THINK THAT? "WHAT AM I DOING WITH RUSS"?

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

REALLY? OH, MY GOSH!

THAT'S AWFUL.

JUAN WAS TELLING ME THAT THEY TALK ABOUT ME IN COLOMBIA

AND THEY SAY LIKE, "OH, THAT'S NOT PAO."

I DON'T LIKE IT.

OH, MY GO-- I DIDN'T KNOW THAT!

I HAVEN'T SEEN YOU IN, LIKE, FOREVER,

AND I DIDN'T KNOW YOU GUYS WERE THINKING THAT I'M --

RUSS AND I, NO.

THAT MY BEST FRIEND HAS CALLED ME OUT FOR THAT IS, LIKE, WOW.

I WAS NEVER EXPECTING TO GET MARRIED WITH SOMEONE LIKE RUSS.

WE ARE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.

¶¶

Danielle: HELLO?

HE CHOSE TO LEAVE, SO I CHOOSE NOT TO HELP HIM.

ANY TIME I DO HAVE ANY TYPE OF MONEY,

YOU'RE ALREADY THINKING ABOUT HOW YOU'RE GOING TO SPEND IT.

JORGE DOESN'T HAVE THE MONEY HE TOLD ME HE DID.

WHY WOULD I STAY WITH A LIAR?

YOU LIED TO ME, AND I'M LEAVING.

GOOD. THEN LEAVE.

¶¶

Mohamed: LAST WEEK, I JUST FOUND OUT

THAT DANIELLE FILED FOR ANOTHER ANNULMENT.

¶¶

I TALKED TO THE LAWYER,

AND I'M GOING TO OHIO AND MEET WITH HIM.

AND I FEEL LIKE I NEED TO GO THERE AND TALK TO HIM

BECAUSE NOW IT'S SERIOUS.

IT'S NOT JUST TALKING.

IT'S REAL. I HAVE THE PAPERS.

¶¶

I HOPE THE LAWYER CAN HELP ME UNDERSTAND THE SITUATION

AND TELL ME SOMETHING THAT I CAN DO TO FIX THIS MESS.

SO WHILE I'M HERE, I'M GONNA TRY TO CONVINCE DANIELLE

TO PULL THE ANNULMENT

BECAUSE IF THE ANNULMENT GO THROUGH,

I COULD GET DEPORTED.

¶¶

Danielle: MOHAMED SAID HE'S COMING TO OHIO TODAY,

BUT I'M NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING HIM.

I'M WORRIED THAT HE'S GONNA TRY

TO FIGHT ME ABOUT THE ANNULMENT.

[ CELLPHONE RINGING ]

¶¶

HELLO?

OKAY.

OKAY?

HMM.

[ CHUCKLES ]

UH...

NO, I CAN'T COME AND HELP YOU.

I HAVE WORK AT 3:00.

I WOULDN'T MAKE IT BACK.

[ Laughing ] I WAS VERY SURPRISED

THAT HE REACHED OUT TO ME FOR HELP BECAUSE...

I DON'T KNOW WHAT HE WAS THINKING,

BUT... [ LAUGHS ]

MOHAMED: Well, I don't know what to do.

HE CHOSE TO LEAVE, SO I CHOOSE NOT TO HELP HIM.

¶¶

Mohamed: I WAS DRIVING AND GETTING CLOSER.

I STARTED THINKING ABOUT THE LAWYER,

THE DIVORCE, THE ANNULMENT, DANIELLE --

LIKE, SO MANY THINGS.

AND I SAID, "OKAY, I'M GOING TO STOP."

BUT I KEPT THINKING AND THINKING AND THINKING.

I FORGOT ABOUT THE GAS, SO I JUST RAN OUT OF GAS.

DANIELLE -- I DON'T KNOW IF SHE IS GETTING READY FOR A FIGHT,

THAT'S WHY SHE DOESN'T WANT TO HELP ME.

BUT I'M TRYING TO BRING SOME PEACE

BETWEEN ME AND DANIELLE HERE.

AND NOW I AM WORRIED THAT SHE WON'T PULL THE ANNULMENT.

¶¶

¶¶

Paola: I LOVED GOING OUT WITH JUAN THE OTHER NIGHT,

BUT I DIDN'T LIKE HEARING ABOUT THE COMMENTS ABOUT, LIKE,

RUSS AND I SHOULDN'T BE TOGETHER.

POOR RUSS.

I FEEL BAD FOR HIM.

IT'S REALLY HARD.

YOU NEED TO BE REALLY IN LOVE TO MAKE IT WORK.

-HI, BABY! -Hey, babe.

I HAVE A SURPRISE FOR YOU.

TA-DA!

[ LAUGHS ]

WHAT IS THAT LOOK ABOUT?

Yeah, you look really pretty.

IT'S A BIG CHANGE. I MOVED TO A BIG CITY,

A NEW CITY, WITHOUT HIM.

AND NOW I'M CHANGING MY HAIR COLOR.

I HOPE HE UNDERSTANDS THAT THIS IS JUST FOR, LIKE,

TRYING SOMETHING NEW

AND IS PROBABLY GONNA HELP MY CAREER A LOT.

CAROLINE TOLD ME I ACTUALLY, LIKE,

SHOULD CHANGE MY LOOK A LITTLE BIT,

MORE LIKE AN AMERICAN WAY.

No, I think it's more like the Miami way.

MIAMI WAY?

[ CHUCKLES ]

Russ: I REALLY LIKE PAO'S NEW LOOK.

BUT AT THE SAME TIME, IT'S VERY DRASTIC.

AND I'M JUST A LITTLE SURPRISED THAT SHE DID IT

BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THE AGENT ASKED HER TO DO.

Oh, yeah.

BABY, I WAS TALKING WITH CAROLINE.

AND, YOU KNOW, YOU WANT ME TO START MAKING MONEY

SO I CAN ACTUALLY PAY THE MORTGAGE IN OKLAHOMA.

BUT IT DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY, ACTUALLY.

SHE TOLD ME THAT NORMALLY, THE OTHER MODELS HAVE LIKE TWO JOBS

OR SOMETHING, BECAUSE I CANNOT LIVE WITH THE MONEY

THAT I'M GONNA MAKE WORKING AS A MODEL OR AN ACTRESS.

¶¶

That's...

That's kind of a different perspective from what --

when you spoke with her before.

Paola: I CAN TELL HE'S UPSET.

I CAN TELL THAT HE FEELS THAT, LIKE,

I LEAVE HIM WITH ALL THE STUFF THAT IS GOING ON IN OKLAHOMA.

I DON'T WANT TO DISAPPOINT YOU, YOU KNOW.

LIKE, I'M MAKING THIS BIG MOVE

BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT SOMETHING GOOD IS GOING TO HAPPEN.

PAO DOESN'T SEEM TO CARE ABOUT THIS, YOU KNOW,

FINANCIAL PICKLE THAT WE'RE IN.

I WANT TO GO TO MIAMI BECAUSE MY WIFE'S DOWN THERE.

SHE'S WAITING FOR ME.

BUT AT THIS POINT,

UNTIL SOMETHING HAPPENS WITH THE HOUSE,

I CAN'T.

I MISS YOU A LOT, BUT I DON'T KNOW.

I FEEL LIKE I'M HAPPIER.

LIKE, EVEN MY FACE, LIKE, EVERYTHING IS SO, LIKE,

THIS IS WHERE I BELONG.

DO YOU KNOW?

I'VE BEEN HERE FOR A SHORT TIME,

AND I'M ALREADY, LIKE, MAKING A LOT OF FRIENDS.

So, you're meeting new people?

UH, WELL, BABY, UM...

¶¶

Paola: I HAVEN'T TOLD RUSS THAT JUAN IS IN MIAMI AND THAT I SAW HIM.

IT'S BETTER NOT TO.

I DON'T WANT MY HUSBAND TO WORRY TOO MUCH.

LIKE, WE HAVE A LOT OF THINGS GOING ON IN OKLAHOMA.

I imagine you're a lot more --

just with the new atmosphere,

you're a lot more open to things,

and that's great.

YEAH. I'm excited for that,

and I want to be a part of that.

AND I WANT YOU HERE, MI AMOR.

YOU'RE GONNA LOVE IT THE WAY I LOVE IT.

I KNOW THAT I LOVE MY WIFE AND I WANT TO BE WITH HER,

BUT I HATE NOT KNOWING EXACTLY WHAT'S GOING ON

WITH HER DOWN THERE

OR EVEN WHEN WE'LL BE TOGETHER AGAIN.

WE NEED TO FIGURE SOMETHING OUT.

OTHERWISE, THIS MARRIAGE ISN'T GONNA WORK.

¶¶

THE FIRST TIME BORDER PATROL WALKS UP BEHIND YOU,

YOU CAN BE DEPORTED.

HE'S IN TROUBLE.

THERE'S SOMETHING I HAVEN'T TOLD ANFISA,

AND SHE'S REALLY GONNA GET UPSET.

YOU LIED TO ME, AND I'M LEAVING.

GOOD. THEN LEAVE.

SO, WE CROSS HERE. WE CAN CROSS OVER THERE.

¶¶

¶ RUN UP, RUN WITH ME HERE ¶

¶ BOY, SO COME GET ME ¶

FINALLY, I'M IN OHIO AFTER I RAN OUT OF GAS ON MY WAY.

I MANAGED TO WALK TO THE GAS STATION,

AND NOW I'M MEETING WITH A LAWYER.

LAST WEEK, I RECEIVED PAPERS FROM DANIELLE

SAYING THAT SHE APPLIED FOR ANOTHER ANNULMENT.

SO HOPEFULLY, THE LAWYER CAN EXPLAIN

HOW THAT IS GOING TO AFFECT MY IMMIGRATION.

OKAY.

SO, NOW THERE IS ANOTHER ANNULMENT STANDING.

FIRST, LET ME TELL YOU HOW SERIOUS THAT IS.

TO HAVE THAT GREEN CARD STAY VALID,

YOU HAVE TO BE WITH THE PERSON WHO WAS THE ORIGINAL PETITIONER.

THAT'S HER.

OKAY.

IF YOU'RE NOT WITH THAT PERSON, THEN YOU'RE OUT OF STATUS.

WHICH MEANS YOU CAN BE DEPORTED.

THE LAWYER IS TELLING ME THAT I CAN BE DEPORTED ANY TIME,

AND THAT'S NOT SOMETHING GOOD TO HEAR.

AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET OUT OF THIS.

I'M SCARED OF BEING DEPORTED.

AND THAT MEANS THE FIRST TIME

BORDER PATROL WALKS UP BEHIND YOU,

ASKS FOR YOUR STATUS,

ASKS FOR YOUR GREEN CARD,

OR ASKS FOR ANY INFORMATION LIKE THAT,

YOU COULD BE DEPORTED.

AND WE NOW GOT TO BUILD UP ENOUGH OF A CASE

FOR YOU TO STAY HERE.

SO NOW, YOU HAVE TO MAKE SURE YOU'RE COVERED

IF THE ANNULMENT GOES FORWARD.

THE WAY THE K-1 VISA'S DESIGNED IS TO PREVENT FRAUD.

SO THE BIGGEST ISSUE THAT WE'VE GOT IS INTENT.

DID YOU INTEND TO MARRY HER IN THE BEGINNING?

DID YOU? YES.

DID YOU MARRY HER WITH GOOD INTENTIONS,

OR DID YOU MARRY HER ONLY TO GET A GREEN CARD?

I MARRIED HER WITH GOOD INTENTIONS.

THEN YOU'VE GOT TO ESTABLISH, THEN,

THAT "MY INTENTION WAS TO MARRY HER.

MY INTENTION WAS TO --

THE REASON FOR GETTING THE K-1

WAS NOT JUST TO GET A GREEN CARD,

BUT TO BE MARRIED."

WELL, THAT'S MY INTENTION FROM THE BEGINNING.

I CAME HER TO HAVE A LIFE WITH HER.

BUT I CANNOT HANDLE ANYMORE, YOU KNOW?

I WAS LIVING IN A NIGHTMARE WITH HER.

ALL THE DRAMA, THE SOCIAL MEDIA, THE PEOPLE INVOLVED,

AND HER BEING, LIKE, VIOLENT, AND, LIKE, ACTING WEIRD

AND THREATENING ME.

THERE IS EVEN DOMESTIC VIOLENCE WITH HER SON.

I HAVE A RESTRAINING ORDER AGAINST HER SON

WHEN HE WAS LIVING WITH ME.

OKAY. THERE IS POLICE REPORTS.

OKAY. THERE IS PEOPLE INVOLVED.

THERE IS SO MANY THINGS.

WE WOULD PUT THAT MATERIAL TOGETHER IN YOUR FILE.

WE EVEN HAVE, LIKE, MUTUAL FRIENDS INVOLVED.

WHO WILL TESTIFY TO THAT.

YEAH. OKAY.

AND THEY EVEN, LIKE, TELL ME,

"IF YOU NEED, WE WILL GO WITH YOU."

TO BE HONEST WITH YOU, I HAVE NOTHING TO HIDE.

AND IF I TALK TO THE IMMIGRATION,

I'M JUST GONNA TELL THEM WHAT HAPPENED

BECAUSE WHAT HAPPENED IS NOT SOMEBODY CAN HANDLE, YOU KNOW?

IT'S TOO MUCH. OKAY.

WE GOT A SITUATION HERE WHERE MOHAMED COULD BE

DIGGING HIMSELF DEEPER.

IF SHE ESTABLISHED THAT ALL OF THIS WAS HIS FAULT,

THAT HE HAD NO INTENTION OF MARRYING HER FOR A GOOD REASON,

BUT THAT THE INTENTION COULD'VE BEEN JUST TO GET A GREEN CARD,

THEN HE'S IN TROUBLE.

SO, LET ME EMPHASIZE TO YOU THAT THIS IS VERY SERIOUS.

WE'VE GOT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU, YOU KNOW,

YOU DON'T DO ANY FELONIES.

[ Laughing ] YOU DON'T DO ANYTHING LIKE THAT

TO RAISE THE FOCUS OF IMMIGRATION.

IS THERE AN IMMIGRATION PATROL

THAT'S COMING AROUND TO LOOK FOR YOU?

NO.

BUT IF THEY HAPPEN UP ON YOU

AND YOU'RE OUT OF STATUS,

YOU CAN BE DEPORTED.

Mohamed: THE LAWYER TOLD ME BECAUSE I LEFT DANIELLE

AND SHE FILED FOR AN ANNULMENT,

THAT MEANS THE GREEN CARD IS NOT VALID ANYMORE.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. GOOD ENOUGH.

I'M GONNA BE CAREFUL TO BE ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE LAW

BECAUSE I WANT TO STAY IN THIS COUNTRY.

¶¶

DANIELLE IS TRYING TO PROVE THAT I WAS HERE

JUST FOR THE GREEN CARD.

IF THEY GRANT THE ANNULMENT

AND THEY SAY THAT I COMMITTED A FRAUD,

THEN I WILL HAVE TO LEAVE AND GO BACK TO MY COUNTRY.

¶¶

I WILL TALK TO DANIELLE TOMORROW

AND I WILL TRY TO CONVINCE HER TO BE FRIENDS AGAIN.

IT'S GOING TO BE EASIER IF DANIELLE IS ON MY SIDE.

¶¶

JORGE RECENTLY ADMITTED

THAT HE'S NOT ACTUALLY A MILLIONAIRE

LIKE HE TOLD ME BEFORE I CAME HERE.

IT SCARES ME WHEN JORGE SAYS ABOUT HIS DEBT

BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT'S GONNA MEAN

FOR OUR RELATIONSHIP.

AM I GONNA BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS DEBT, TOO?

IS IT GONNA BE MY DEBT?

¶¶

SO, WE'RE GOING TO BE RIGHT HERE FOR YOU.

Jorge: NOW THAT I TOLD HER ABOUT MY FINANCIAL SITUATION,

I'M KIND OF WORRIED.

I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHERE WE STAND.

IS SHE GONNA LEAVE ME OVER THIS?

WHY WEREN'T YOU HONEST WITH ME

ABOUT YOUR FINANCES FROM THE START?

YOU TOLD YOU HAVE MUCH MORE THAN YOU ACTUALLY DO.

I WAS HONEST.

YOU WERE NOT HONEST!

I BECAME STUPIDLY OBSESSED WITH YOU,

AND I WANTED TO BE WITH YOU.

SO I DECIDED TO SCREW UP A LOT OF THINGS OF MY BUSINESS...

YOU'RE LYING AGAIN. ...TO GO AND BE WITH YOU.

YOU'RE STILL LYING.

Anfisa: IF JORGE DOESN'T HAVE THE MONEY HE TOLD ME HE DID,

THEN WHY WOULD I STAY WITH A LIAR?

HOW MUCH, EXACTLY, DO YOU OWE?

¶¶

YOU KNOW, SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS.

JORGE SAID HE'S A FEW THOUSAND DOLLARS IN DEBT.

NO. NOT REALLY.

A FEW THOUSAND CAN BE $2,000, OR IT CAN BE $100,000.

OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD, ABOUT $30,000.

¶¶

I CAN'T BELIEVE HE OWES THAT MUCH MONEY, AND WHO KNOWS?

IT CAN BE EVEN MORE.

I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO BELIEVE ANYMORE --

SWAT'S TRUE, WHAT'S LIES.

IT'S VERY HARD TO TELL WITH JORGE.

I DID MY RESEARCH, AND I FOUND OUT

THAT SINCE CALIFORNIA IS A COMMUNITY-PROPERTY STATE,

IT MEANS THAT IF HUSBAND HAS SOME KIND OF DEBT,

THEN WIFE COULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR IT, TOO.

AND I WANT TO PROTECT MYSELF FROM THIS HAPPENING,

SO I WAS THINKING MAYBE YOU COULD GET

A POST-NUPTIAL AGREEMENT.

¶¶

WHEN I HEAR THE WORD "POST-NUP,"

THE WORD "DIVORCE" COMES INTO MY HEAD.

I FEEL LIKE HER BRINGING UP THE POST-NUPTIAL AGREEMENT

DAYS AWAY FROM GETTING A GREEN CARD,

IT JUST SEEMS SO FISHY.

¶¶

IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BE IN THIS RELATIONSHIP

BECAUSE OF MONEY, WHATEVER IT IS...

WHY I DON'T HAVE MONEY... -BECAUSE YOU LIED TO ME.

-WHY I DON'T HAVE MONEY... -BECAUSE YOU LIED TO ME.

AND ANY TIME I DO HAVE ANY TYPE OF MONEY,

YOU'RE ALREADY THINKING ABOUT HOW YOU'RE GOING TO SPEND IT.

OF COURSE, BECAUSE YOU PROMISED ME.

SO WHAT?

YOU TOLD ME YOU GIVE ME WHATEVER I WANT.

YOU SEE, WE ARE IN A PROBLEM.

YOU SEE WE ARE IN A PROBLEM, SO WHY ARE YOU ADDING TO IT?

I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM. YOU HAVE A PROBLEM.

ANFISA MIGHT'VE BEEN MISLED A LITTLE BIT,

BUT IF YOU REALLY, TRULY LOVE SOMEBODY,

NO MATTER POOR OR RICH,

YOU'RE GONNA LOVE THEM REGARDLESS.

AT THIS POINT, I FEEL LIKE YOU SHOULDN'T DESERVE ANYTHING.

I'M EXPECTING CERTAIN THINGS THAT YOU PROMISE ME.

WELL, WHAT IF I DON'T GIVE THEM TO YOU? THEN WHAT?

THAT MEANS YOU LIED TO ME, AND I'M LEAVING.

GOOD. THEN LEAVE.

¶¶

THIS SEASON ON "90 DAY FIANCé: HAPPILY EVER AFTER"...

HAVING RUSS HERE, IT MAKES ME FEEL SO SPECIAL.

I'M HAPPY. I'M A HAPPY PERSON.

Jorge: ANFISA'S MY DREAM GIRL.

MY GOAL IS ALWAYS TO MAKE HER HAPPY.

NOW LET'S GO PARTY!

[ CHEERING ]

Chantel: I THINK I DESERVE TO HAVE A NIGHT OUT

WITHOUT MY HUSBAND.

[ LAUGHS ]

[ GASPS ]

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

OH, MY GOD!

OF COURSE, I'M STILL TRYING TO FIND LOVE IN THIS COUNTRY.

YOU GO FROM ONE WOMAN TO ANOTHER.

YOU'RE GOING TO BE LUCKY IF YOUR [BLEEP] DON'T FALL OFF.

ONE MINUTE, SHE'S HAPPY.

[ GRUNTS ]

ONE MINUTE, SHE'S MAD.

YOU MET CHANTEL TO ACHIEVE MORE MONEY TO SEND BACK.

River: I FEEL CHANTEL IS BEING USED.

IT WAS A SETUP FOR HIM TO PICK A WIFE.

I DON'T KNOW IF SHE THINKS IT'S A GAME.

SHE BROKE MY HEART INTO A MILLION PIECES.

SO YOU'VE BEEN, LIKE, LYING TO ME

ALL THIS TIME, BASICALLY. RIGHT?

I DIDN'T MEAN TO HURT YOU INTENTIONALLY.

BECAUSE YOU CHANGED MY LIFE TO LIVE YOUR LIFE.

HOW DO YOU KNOW? YOU KNOW NOTHING!

I TOLD HIM! I TALKED TO HIM!

YOU KNOW WHAT?

BYE-BYE!

Danielle: [ Weeping ] I AM GOING TO PROVE IT IN COURT THAT HE USED ME.

¶¶

WE NEED TO MEET AND TALK.

I WILL MEET YOU, BUT AWAY FROM THESE CAMERAS.

OKAY?

Chantel: MY BIGGEST FEAR IS THAT HIS WHOLE PLAN

IS TO JUST COME TO THE UNITED STATES

SO THAT HE CAN SEND MONEY BACK.

MAYBE YOUR [BLEEP] MOM'S ONLY THINKING ABOUT HERSELF.

NO [BLEEP] MORE!

NO [BLEEP] MORE!

SHE ONLY CARES ABOUT YOU GOING BACK WITH ME

AND SENDING MONEY BACK TO HER.

YOU KNOW WHAT?

I DON'T NEED YOU. I DON'T NEED YOUR FAMILY.

IT'S A HORRIBLE FEELING.

I CAN'T EVEN -- I CAN'T EVEN DO THIS RIGHT NOW.

LIKE, I CAN'T. MOVE!

Chantel: I DON'T HAVE THE CONTROL RIGHT NOW

BECAUSE YOU'RE [BLEEP] YELLING AT ME!

Danielle: [ WEEPING ]

I HATE MOHAMED SO MUCH!

[ WEEPING ]
