[all] Under, under,
front, back.

[kids] Previously on
Doubling Down
with the Derricos...

I actually saw a girl
that I liked.

You got a girlfriend
from step class?

These boys are girl-crazy.

-They text each other.
-[Karen] Oh?

A lot.

What?

She's told me point blank
that she felt pressured.

I discovered that Karen
is pushing Darian

to go to college in New York.

So, we're gonna talk
to Darian, right?

And when she tell you
that she doesn't wanna go,

you're going to accept that.

I'm gonna really encourage her
to go.

This is just another thing
that we don't agree on.

This is the one time
I feel like she just needs
that push.

Oh, my God,
his man hasn't finished.

-[Karen] I thought a lot more
would have been done by now.
-[Deon sighs]

We just keep getting further
and further behind.

This is supposed to be
a great moment.

of us moving in the house.

-It's all stressful.
-Karen.

I don't like this.

[Deon] Most couples
have issues,

but where we are right now,
I, I hate it.

Daician, what's your type?

-He has to be fine.
-[Deonee and Daiten] Fine.

-So fine.
-Fine like a bunch of wine.

He has to be so...

No, I don't even like wine.

He has to be a bucket
of passion fruit.

Bucket of seafood.

[Deonee] No, bucket of love.

[Deonee and Daiten] Wow.

-Dang.
-Like, our mind blows, like,

-wow.
-Boom.

♪ Yeah, we lit, yeah, we lit,
Yeah, we lit ♪

♪ We can turn the party up
Till the sun come up ♪

♪ Yeah, we lit, yeah, we lit,
Yeah, we lit ♪

♪ We can turn the party up
Till the sun come up ♪

[Deon] Look at y'all
Valentine's Day cookies.

I like yours, Daician.

-Don't eat it. Don't eat it!
-Eat it.

[Deon] And don't y'all put
your little fingers in it.

Yours look good.

We're getting
in the Valentine's Day spirit,

'cause we're decorating
Valentine's cookies.

Uh-huh.

[Karen] Y'all know
what Valentine Day
is all about though?

-Love?
-Love, that's right.

Valentine Day
just a little different
from just love.

Valentine Day is typically
between romantic couples.

-[GG] Intimate.
-So-- Say what?

Intimate love.

So what,
y'all know what it means?

[kids clamoring]

Oh, yeah, we know.

Whoo!

My definition
of intimate love is

rose petals, fire,
the good stuff.

The good, good, good stuff.

-Yeah, yeah.
-And...

chocolate.

Yeah, yeah, yeah,
that's good stuff.

What do y'all know
about dating?

Cause y'all, y'all,
the boys got fired up.

You have sex with a boy.

No.

Oh, hell, no.

-[kids clamoring]
-[Karen] No.

-Yes! Oh, hallelujah.
-[all applauding]

[Eric] That's right.

-[Karen] Lord Jesus...
-Amen.

We, we definitely
have to educate y'all.

-Yeah, because there's so much
more to dating than sex.
-Than sex.

Poppy and I can watch a movie.
We can eat dinner.

We can read
a newspaper together.

When you can be intimate
with someone without
physical touch,

now that is real intimacy.

These older children
are growing up way too fast.

Before I know it,
they will be teens.

So, we need to have
these conversations

so that they'll understand
the appropriate way to act

when it comes to dating.

We have to get ahead of it.
Like, now.

You know, y'all are far away
from dating, actually.

But I got something
we're gonna do this year.

So, the boys
are gonna take Mommy out
on a Valentines date,

-and then Poppy is gonna take
the girls out.
-I love that.

So that we can educate y'all
on what dating consists of.

Our early days of dating,

it was moments
where it was embarrassing

and it was a little awkward.

[Deon] When Karen and I
first started dating,

I just remember thinking,
you know,

"Wow, this woman is special."

'Cause she never has gas.

You know, she always seems
to just be the perfect,

you know, just so poised
and just, just--

Hold on,
you couldn't think
of another story?

-I mean... [laughing]
-I mean, something with gas?

Oh, my God.

[Deon] I just remember
leaving the house,

but I had to run back in.

-And I heard the longest...
-[Karen laughing]

...loudest sound.

And I'm like, "So,
you've been holding--"

I mean, as long as that was,

that means you've been
holding this all night.

-I don't remember,
honest to God.
-Yes, you did.

-[Deon] And it had
a head on it.
-Nah.

-[laughing] Really?
-That means
it smelled pretty bad.

Mommy and Poppy,
where are you guys gonna go?

Um, we're taking y'all out.
Y'all taking us out.

No, you two.

[Karen] So, I don't know
what Mommy and Poppy
is gonna do.

I mean, we just got a lot
going on with the move
and all, so.

We'll just be happy to enjoy
this time with our babies.

Yep. Mommy's right.

You know, recently,

Karen and I have faced
some challenging times
within our marriage.

And it's very important for us
to take the time

to make sure our spouse
or each other feel appreciated
and seen.

And especially when
we're going through
an extra amount of stress.

Right, it's very important.
That's that communication.

We, we need that

so we can kinda update
each other what's going on

and have conversations

so you can both
be on the same page.

I mean,
that's a good question.

I can't really give you
an exact answer,

but just know Poppy is trying

to get us in that
other house ASAP.

So, we have to all
stay optimistic,

stay excited.

Look forward to--
We're moving in our new house.

-So, we lit.
-[kids exclaiming]

[Deon] Yes!

[Karen] This is the time
for bed.

Let's get these little teeth
right here.

[vocalizing] Brush!

[in normal voice] Okay.
I'm gonna start with Diez.

Y'all step over there.

[Dior speaking]

-Diez has stinky breath.
-And you.

And me. I mean, not me.
Not me, not me.

So, you need to brush
all around the sides,

the bottom.

We make sure that
our five younger children

understand the importance
of brushing their teeth.

Rinse.

[Deon]
We want them to understand
great oral hygiene.

That's for one.

But also we do not want
our babies

infringing on someone else
with some bad breath.

-Hallelujah.
-No.

All right, Dyver,
you saw me help them.

So, let's--
Show me what you got, okay?

You do.

[Karen]
Start with your tongue.

That's where the stench
is coming from.

Ew!

All right, Dior.

[Dior speaking]

[Karen] Oh, wait, put that up.

-Go put that up.
-Says his tooth hurt.

Where does it hurt?

-You gotta get that
checked out.
-[Karen] Yeah, we do.

Let me see, let me see. Open.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, we gotta get them
into the dentist chair.

You know,
I was hoping I could postpone
the dentist visit

until after we move
into the new house.

Because it is extremely tricky
to make dental appointments

for all of my 14 children.

But we can't have
a child that's in pain either,
so it's...

We gotta get him there
to see what's going on.

[Deon] Yeah, I see it.
It's inflamed.

No.

-No?
-[Dior] No.

[Diez speaking]

[Dior] Mmm... mmm.

♪ You gotta hit the ground
running ♪

♪ And believe in yourself
you gotta trust it ♪

[Deon] There's so much
still to do. [sighs]

-One day at a time.
-Yeah, one day at a time.

But, I mean, look,

there's still
stuff up there
that ain't finished.

So, Eric and I are over
at the new house today.

I left the mold test there,
and I'm praying God

it does not show
positive for mold.

-We gotta check
for some mold, huh?
-[Deon] For black mold, yeah.

My contractor told me
that he saw moisture
in the wall.

At this point,
I regret I ever told Karen

about having this house
before it's ready.

It was not for sure worth it,

with the pressure and tension
that's put

on Karen and our relationship.

Oh, here you go.

-Yeah, that's not nice.
-Damn it!

Just like I thought.

Damn, I knew it!

-[Eric speaking]
-Yes.

Now, add that
to the list of crap

that I already
had to handle.

Black mold is
a major health concern.

It could wreak havoc
on anyone in perfect health,

not to mention like,
Dawsyn with her heart,
GG when she visits.

I just cannot put
any of us in harm's way.

Now I can't finish painting

until the mold problem
gets figured out.

I'm so frustrated right now.

This could throw us off
at least three weeks,
if not more.

[mumbling indistinctly]

Check and see if this--
if that's plugged up.

[Eric] It's plugged up
over here.

Yes.

No!

-Why not?
-No light, no electricity.

Have you used
these before?

-These are those--
-[Deon] Yes.

Let me go check
this breaker box.

Not this, too.

You know,
we should be celebrating,

considering
we're getting ready to move.

And I know Rico
is beyond stretched

trying to get
this house ready.

And definitely, you're not
gonna meet deadline
if that's the case,

because you know,
stress can harm anybody.

Especially the heart.

Okay, is it on?

No light.

Now?

[Eric] It's not.

[Deon] That?

No.

Oh my God,
that's all of them.

No light.

[Deon] I had a budget
for my repairs,

but the way things is going,

this budget
is quickly dwindling.

Karen been texting,
asking for updates

because she can't figure out
why is it taking so long,

why is there
so many issues.

But I have not told her
all the issues

because that's more pressure,
that's more--

You know,
although Karen and I

are working
on proper communication
in our relationship,

I don't want to tell Karen
about any new problems

that will lead
to further delays,

that will also lead
to pissing her off.

It seems like
as close as we get,

it moves further back.

Yeah, man, I don't know.

I mean, what do I say?

Which one of y'all have
girlfriends or crushes?

[Dallas] Deniko and Denver
are probably the most
girl crazy

because you know,
they're talking about

"Oh, I want this girl,
I want that girl,

I want this girl,
I want that girl."

And what do you think
you're looking for?

[all laughing]

[Karen] Derrico hasn't
updated me on the house yet.

I've been asking him,

and... it's like
I'm just left on read.

This just adds to tension
between the two of us.

The lack of communication
is really, really stressing
me out.

♪ I feel good, baby
I feel great ♪

♪ I ain't got too much
on my plate ♪

♪ We're gonna have
a good day ♪

[Karen] All right.
Y'all ready to do some nails?

[all exclaiming] Yes!

Karen's nail salon
is booked and busy today.

-Who's first?
-Me.

[Karen] Sparkle clear.

[both] Sparkle, clear.

Right.
Okay, let's go.

Today we are doing our nails
in preparation of

the girl's Valentine's Day
date with Poppy.

No woman should have
dirty nails going on a date.

You can't move
your hand, Dawsyn.

My mom did not talk to me
about dating.

Her rule was, "Don't bring
a baby home."

So, I didn't get serious
with anyone

because it was always
in the back of my mind.

But now, have 14 children.

Oh my gosh,
that is so cute, De'Aren.

-[exclaiming] Yes, I like it.
-You like it?

[Karen] My expectations
for my daughters is that

is that they will have
high self-esteem
within themselves,

to not feel like a man
has to validate them.

So, girls, are y'all ready
for your big date with Poppy?

[all] Yes.

Where do y'all think
you're going?

-A restaurant.
-[Karen] A restaurant?

-Fancy restaurant.
-I wanna go to a restaurant.

Now what if you
get to the table?

Is Poppy supposed to
sit down first or you?

-He's supposed to
pull our chair.
-Pull our chair.

[Karen] Good job.

If you got out
on a date with any man
and he sits down first,

you don't even sit down.

[indistinct]

More than anything,
I don't want them to feel
that this is a man's world.

Because it won't be nothing
without a woman.

And I mean,
that's just the truth.

-[indistinct]
-[indistinct]

That's right.
That's right.

So y'all get a chance
to see our new barbershop.

-In GG's house.
-This is great.

I likey, I likey.

Welcome to the new barbershop
at GG's house.

All right, so we're
gonna do this in birth order.

Derrick, you're first up.

This barbershop space
gives us the opportunity
to be with GG more.

But, it also takes me
out of my hot garage.

It was very, very hot
in the garage
in the summertime.

So today,
I'm getting my boys
ready and fresh

for their Valentine's Day
with Mommy.

Y'all can't look bad
going out with Mommy,

because when I went out
with Mommy

for the first time,
I was tight.

For me, growing up
being in a barbershop,

the camaraderie
that we shared,

I want to give that
to my boys,

and this is my opportunity
to give it my way.

-Your mama so--
-[Deon] Wait, hold on.

Cause y'all all have
the same mama,

-y'all better not say nothing
about my mama.
-[boys laughing]

Smack talk, sports
and talking about women,

that's a common conversation
that you're gonna hear

in every barbershop.

So which one of y'all have
girlfriends or crushes?

Well, I'm a free agent.

I don't really have
nobody right now.
Right now.

So, Derrick,
what do you think
you're looking for?

I don't know, kind of like,
people who enjoy
watching sports

or like someone
who just likes to work out.

[Deniko speaking]

[all laughing]

All right, so,
wait a minute.

Wait a minute, now,
that's a good one, now wait.

I want my girls to be...

short a little bit
because I don't want them
to be taller than me.

I want them to have donk.

I don't know,
someone nurturing
and supportive.

I kind of like shy girls,
you know?

[Dariz] What do you want
your girls to look like?

Do you want them to be bad,
good, evil, mysterious?

See, that's the thing.

And by the way,
girls like bad boys.

[both] Yeah!

So babies, do y'all know
what chivalry is?

[Derrick] I do.

-[Deon] You do?
-Yes.

[Deon] Who else knows?

-Nobody.
-[Eric] They're supposed
to know, Derrick.

That's a reflection of you.

You're supposed to be
passing them game.

Chivalry is when a man
really goes out of his way

to show his young lady
that you know she's special.

It's very important
that I educate my boys

on how to treat a woman

and how to respect a woman.

-So, you know, girls,
y'all listening to me?
-Yes.

I want to make sure
y'all know how to know

that y'all
are being respected.

If he's a gentleman,
he smells good,

he takes care of the bill,

he has a close relationship
with his family,

you know, all of that stuff.

That's how y'all got here,

because Poppy checked off
every single box

and then some.

[Deon] Women love to be heard,

so like, you want
to be a good listener.

You know,
mommy always loved hugs,

and I would just give her
just, I would hold her.

I wouldn't just hug her,
I would hold her.

And I'll never forget
one time,

I had picked her up
from the airport,

it was late at night,

but she was disappointed
because I forgot to hug her.

And he pulled over
on the side of the road,

I'm like, why'd we pull over?

I done forgot
I just complained

that he didn't give me a hug.

He got out the truck,
he walked around,

he opened up my door,
he helped me out,

and he gave me a hug
right there on the side
of the road.

-That was nice.
-Very nice and sweet.

That was what really got
mommy, you know,

when I stopped
and gave her that hug.

You listened to her,
you paid attention to her.

Very good, yes, man,
you're getting it, yes.

You know,
sometimes the keys of life

has always been a woman hug.

Poppy gave it to her,
and she was happy.

[Denver] In that case,
Mommy needed it.

[Dallas] Yeah.

Poppy definitely has game.

He does.

You do this. [blows air]

Mmm-hmm, good job,
keep doing that.

Keep doing it.

Mommy, here's a good one.

What if they say that,
"Oh, I forgot my wallet."

Oh, my gosh,
you call that waitress over

and you split that bill,
you pay yours, and you bounce.

-Bounce.
-You bounce, that's right.

You bounce.

It's very important
for a lady to feel

totally understood by her man.

It goes a long way

when it comes
to a healthy relationship.

You know,
you're building that trust.

Y'all better be very good on
your date with Poppy, okay?

Because if y'all not,
I'm gonna hear all about it.

-[Dawsyn] Okay.
-I want y'all
to be on it, okay?

On it.

So I want you babies
to make me proud

and press Mommy on this date.

Do y'all have the assignment?

Or do y'all have
the assignment?

[Derrico boys]
I got the assignment!

That's what I'm talking about.

All right, who's next?

-Oh. Hey, guys, welcome in.
-[Karen] Hi.

Hello.

So today I am taking
13 of my 14 children

to get some teeth cleaning.

Thank God I was able
to bring GG there to help.

And thank God
there's a dentist out there

that is catering
to our busy schedule.

-Hi, I'm Dr. Jensen.
-I'm Karen Derrico.

This is amazing.

I've never had one family
fill my waiting room.

-[laughing]
-I don't even know
how you handle this.

We don't often get families
as big as the Derricos.

We do have some families
in the six or seven kid range,

which is pretty big,
but never in the 14.

So that's a first
for Smile Reef.

[Karen] Come here, Dior.

So it started with him
because his gums were sore.

Oh wow, yeah, that is a little
bit inflamed back there.

[Karen] Yes.

[Dr. Jensen] We're gonna have
to get an x-ray of that.

[Dior] Mmm.

[Dr. Jensen] Do you guys know
what a sugar bug is?

-[Derrico kids] No.
-Turn around.

So when the food gets stuck
in your teeth,

they go in and eat it,
and then they make acid.

And that's what kind of
eats through your teeth

and makes little holes
in your teeth.

So to try
to protect your teeth,

we wanna make sure
that you're brushing good

and brush the sugar bugs
off your teeth.

Yeah, all right, let's go.

-Come on.
-[Karen] Come on, let's go.

Babies, y'all go in front.

[nurse] So one right over here
and one right here.

Getting 13 children's
teeth clean

takes a whole lot
of coordination.

You're gonna go over
to one of those

other chairs over there,

and you wanna go
to the green chair?

So you're gonna come
right over here, okay?

Getting them situated,
figuring out

where GG and I
need to be for support.

You're gonna sit in this
green chair, okay, sweetie?

And doing our best
to make the process

as smooth as possible.

[nurse speaking]

[indistinct chatter]

-[nurse] No?
-Yes, he likes it.

[nurse] Oh, he does.
[laughing]

Tickle, tickle, tickle.
Does it tickle you?

-Yeah?
-I got my teeth clean.

See?

Pearly white.

[nurse] You have
such pretty teeth.

All right.

They're doing great.

[Dr. Jensen] All right, Dior,
we gotta protect your eyes.

[Karen] Cool dude.

[Dr. Jensen] Yeah,
you're looking awesome.

And we're gonna use
this really bright light.

Go down to those bottom teeth.

Let me see here.

All right, so looking
down here, we can see

that we're getting
a little bit of a
shark tooth problem here,

so this tooth is actually
dissolving pretty good,

-but this one's not.
-[Karen] Oh, wow.

[Dr. Jensen]
So we call it shark teeth

because the teeth
go in behind,

and you get a layer of teeth.

Let me see, open real big
for me, bud.

So right down in here,
you can see

those two teeth coming in.

-[Karen] Yeah.
-Open real big for me. Ah.

Oh, my gosh.

[Karen] What's going on?

[Dr. Jensen]
He has extra teeth.

So you're only supposed
to have four bottom ones,

but he has one, two,
three, four, five.

Instead of taking out two,
we'll take out three.

Rule number one as a parent,

you do not let
your children see

that you're freaking out.

In my mind,
I am so freaked out

because we had no idea
we was gonna come

and have teeth pulled today,
let alone three.

And I hope that this procedure
goes completely easy,

painless,
because if this goes wrong,

this can definitely scar him
for life

as far as going
to the dentist.

[Dr. Jensen]
So what do you think
about losing your teeth today?

[Karen] Mommy's right here.

[Dr. Jensen]
All right, you ready?

[Dr. Jensen]
All right, can you stay
like a statue for me?

Open big.

We're gonna make a car wash
in your mouth.

Here we go.

[laughing]

[Karen laughs] Ooh,
he's got that giggle.

Dior has three teeth
on the bottom

that has to be extracted.

This is probably why Dior
was in so much discomfort.

[Dr. Jensen] What about that,
does that hurt?

[Dior speaking]

[Dr. Jensen] Okay, so we're
pulling that one out.

-[gasps] One's out.
-[Karen gasps]

-[nurse] Good job.
-It's out, Dior!

[Dr. Jensen] Open big, ah.

Number two.

[Karen] You got
two of them out.

[Dr. Jensen] All right,
how did that feel?

[Dior speaking]

[Karen] You did so good.

I absolutely hate to see
any of my children in pain.

So I'm so glad the dentist
was able to make my baby

feel so much better.

All right, buddy,
here's your teeth.

Keep them in here
and then you can put them

under your pillow
tonight, okay?

You were
the best patients ever.

[Diez speaking]

[both laughing]

[Karen] Derrico hasn't
updated me on the house yet.

I've been asking him,
I'm in the bed
before he gets home.

So I'll just send a text
and be like,

"Hey, what's going on
with the house?

Let me know."

And... it's like,
I'm just left on read.

Derrico and I,
we talk about everything.

We communicate everything.

We update each other
on everything.

So the lack of communication
is really,

really stressing me out.

This just adds to tension
between the two of us.

But I'm not gonna keep asking.

I'm just ready to move
into the new house.

[Deon] So, I just got
the phone to electrician.

The electric issue
that I had is gone.

It was very, very minimal.

The remediation company,
they were able to come out,

take care
of the black mold issue.

It was a very small area,
so they were able
to get it rectified,

but there's still so much more
that has to be done.

And I'm paying the mortgage,
of course, here,

the mortgage
at our other house.
That needs to end

on top of all the things
that I'm having to to do

to do the seams that keep
coming up with this house.

Yeah.

Every time I talk about it,
it gets me stressed. Yeah.

[Karen] Y'all excited to take
Mommy out on her date?

[children] Yes.

[Karen] Whoo.

[all laughing]

-Isn't it a date
for your mom, though?
-[all] For your mom, though?

[Karen] Let's get
in here to our date.

This is amazing!

But next time, ask the woman
where she wants to go
on a date.

Because had I known
we were coming here,
I wouldn't have wore heels.

Yeah, yeah.

I can just sit-- I know,
I'm gonna play
with y'all, too.

I wore heels to play golf,

and I mean, I know I'm a...
a bad mamma jamma
and all,

but heels, playing golf
is a whole 'nother level.

-Hey, Mommy.
-[Karen] Mm-hmm.

Ask whoever he saw
his balls to the hole,
gets to pay for a date.

So, whoever doesn't get
the ball in the hole

-has to pay for the date?
-[Dariz] Yes.

[Karen] Y'all are the men,
y'all supposed to be
paying for the date.

[all] Not it.

-Not it.
-I have 70 bucks, so
I literally can't pay for it.

I have 10 bucks.

So y'all know when y'all bring
a woman on a date

and if she gotta pay for it,

we called men
like that "scrubs," okay?

Y'all are supposed
to pay for the date?

-Yeah!
-Y'all ain't got
no gold for me to dig!

Boy, bye!

Like, a girl
doesn't like a man,

-she'll gold dig for him.
-Yeah.

That's just true.

So, look, who,
whoever doesn't get
the hole in one,

-has to pay. So who's up?
-Me.

-[Karen] All right.
-Oh, that's Derrick.

Derek, get ready to pay
for this meal for this.

Okay, let's see
what he gonna do, y'all.

[Karen and children exclaims]

[Karen] They missed.

He missed the hole.

Boys, I may miss the hole,
like, one time,

-but y'all missing,
like, several.
-No.

[Karen] Show 'em, Dariz.
Oh, God.

-Bad shot.
-[Derrick] Wait, wait,
wait, wait, wait, wait.

It collided. It collided.

I think I'm good at golf.

I think I'm extremely
good at golf.

I think I'm literally
the best one ever.

[Derrick] Okay.

[all laughing]

[Karen] Take a look
at Mommy.

'Cause this seems like
I can give birth to y'all,

breastfeed y'all,
homeschool y'all,

and teach y'all
about some golf.

Ready?

[Derrick] Set, go.

Ooh. [gasps]

[Denver] It doesn't
go in the yellow.

-It went in the hole.
-[Derrick] Would it?

[all exclaiming]

I've showed the boys
a thing or two about
golfing and competition.

None of y'all
made a hole in one.

-So, y'all are paying, right?
-Fine. I'll pay.

I appreciate that.

The date was fun,

but above all else,
I hope they can learn

about how important
it is to communicate,

because that's the key
to making relationships work.

You know, I wanna make sure
y'all meet a girl

that y'all know
how to listen as well.

Listening is important.

And you're gonna communicate--

-Use our words
-[Karen] And you're gonna use
the right words.

-Okay?
-Yes.

So, the boys still have
a lot of work to do,
but they're getting there.

This date has been good.

Unusual, but I'm so glad
that I just happened
to really love all of you.

Because otherwise,
I would've left y'all
a little scrub selves, right?

[laughs]

So, why didn't you tell me
what's going on in the house?

Why would I bring this type
of headache home to you?

I just really need
Derrico to understand

that he has
to communicate with me

when it affects
the whole entire family.

I am not in the Valentine's
dating room.

Really?

[Deon] Miladies.

-Ooh, this is nice.
-Wow.

[Deon] So, I'm taking
my daughters out for tea

and I'm also gonna
give them the tea

on what to expect
from a gentleman

who's taken them
out on a date.

But I am setting the bar
very high

for all of my daughter's
future boyfriends.

This is so nice.

-Look, I'm... I'm as
excited as y'all are.
-Uh, uh, uh.

Strike one, Papi.

You... You didn't even...
You didn't even pull
our chairs out.

-Red flag.
-[Deon] All right.

Let me come
pull your chairs out.

All right, madame.

-Thank you.
-You're welcome.

I've been
a gentleman for 53 years.

I already have it
down pat.

I just forgot this one time.

And here's your little teapot.

[Daician] We're gonna have
to come here more often.

[Deon] It is very important
For my daughters

to understand
how to be treated on a date.

And remember,
Darian is an adult.

So at any point, Darian
could be going on a date.

This is so neat.
I feel so fancy.

I am currently
not dating anyone,

because I wanna focus
on thinking about college

but also, I have a crush
on Cam Whitmore.

He is a basketball player.

[laughs] I just saw him on TV,
ooh, he's cute.

Oh, my gosh, that's good.

Mmm!

Nice and sweet.

How many cubes
you put of sugar?

I don't know.
But it got my mind
right in a good way.

[laughs]

Papi, did you put
your napkin on your lap?

Oh, my God.

-[laughs] Oh, my God.
Red flag, for sure.
-Red flag.

See, Papi's
not used to this.

Papi has two red flags,
so far.

It was a lot of red flags.

[speaking indistinctly]

And he did not put
a napkin on his--

Oh, yeah,
'cause he's really messy.

This date is not going well.

Yes, sure isn't.

Well, this is really good.

[Deon] It is.

So since we're on is a date,
I have a few questions
to get to know you.

-Okay.
-So, what do you do
for a living?

-I live
in my mother's basement.
-Whoa.

-Mmm, okay.
-And I'm a gamer.

You sound like
a 10-year-old.

-[all laughing]
-[Deonee] Security. Secur--

We need security.

How do you feel
about having children?

Honestly,
I don't want children.

I just feel like having
children will take away

from the things
that I wanna do for myself.

-Yeah, that's... that's gonna
be enough for me, dawg.
-You don't wanna do nothing.

You sound really lazy.
I have two words for you,
"boy, bye."

-[all laughing]
-"Boy."

Oh, my...

He was a nice bum.

-[all] Yeah.
-A nice bum.

An adult baby
that needs his mum
for every little thing.

-That's sad.
-That's very sad.

That's extremely sad.

So, the thing that
I'm most impressed with,

that all of you all did,

y'all stood firm on
what your expectations
of me were.

And that's the key to life
and relationships,

is to be upfront
and to ask

the very important questions
that you all were asking.

I love how you all caught
the red flags,

and you have to be
able to do that.

I have actually done that
with women.

I've asked
a couple of questions

and quickly knew like,
"Yeah, this ain't gonna work."

And mommy brought
the opposite side of that.

With every question
I asked her,

she answered it perfectly

and you want
to look for that.

As a father,
I am relieved and delighted

that my daughters
have a good grasp

on what to expect
in a young man.

I feel confident
that they will choose partners

that will align
with their self-worth.

Well, Poppy,
I see why mommy kept you,
'cause you're a keeper.

Thank you, baby.

So I'm a keeper for mommy

and I'm a keeper
for my children.

-Yes, of course.
-Yeah, automatically.

But I have
thoroughly enjoyed
our date.

And we must have a second one,

-and a third one.
-Amen to that.

Yeah, amen.

That tea is something else.

♪ I'll be doing the most♪

♪ When I'm outside

♪ Doing the most
I'll be still so fly ♪

Babies, have you all
brushed your teeth yet?

-[kids] No!
-[Deon] You haven't?

[kids] No!

I can almost smell
y'all breath in this room.

No, you don't want
no sugar bugs, Dawsyn.

Well, you better get in here
and get these sugar bugs
out of there.

Ew.

Remember, you got to brush
twice a day

to keep the-- yup, yup...
twice a day

to keep the sugar bugs away.

It seems like
the little ones are finally
getting the concept

of how important it is
to brush their teeth.

-[breathes out]
-[both laugh]

And I'm hoping they can soon
do this on their own.

Well, baby, I must say,

we've done a great job
with our daughters.

On our date,
they told me where
I was messing up

and things that I was
supposed to say differently
and all of this.

Yes, I'm glad that
our girls did good, right?

Because the boys need
a lot...
They need some practice.

We played golf

and they didn't bring
no money.

So I had to give them
a lesson on,

"Okay, so the first thing
a woman don't want
is a scrub

-and it's coming off
kinda scrub-ish.
-Scrub-ish. [laughs] Right.

And they learned it,
technically, from me,

-from my mishaps.
-Uh-huh.

Well, you know what?
This will be my chance

to sort of make it right
for them and for myself.

I wanna do something
special for you
for Valentine's Day.

You really thought
this through?

[excitedly] Okay,
come through, Poppy!

[squealing]
Come through, Poppy!

Yeah, we can go out
and just, you know, talk.

[Deon] Having our dates
with all the children

put things in
perspective for me.

With the stress
of two mortgages,

packing up a house
of 16 people,

GG pausing chemo,

Darian possibly going away
to college

and hemorrhaging money
into a new house...

We need this time
to just appreciate
one another.

Amen.

I like that.

I like that. Thank you.
I appreciate that.

Oh, you're welcome, baby.

[Karen] Can you
give me a hint?

Last time you surprised me,
it was a... it's a house.

Is the next one a mansion?

Or are you gonna tell me,

actually, we are,
you know, billionaires,

-and you about to show me
all the money. [laughs]
-Yes, now that's it.

We're billionaires
and I'm hiding it.

Just to see how much
you really love me,

to make sure
you love me for me...

-What, it took you
over 20 years?
-...and not my money.

Yes, I'm still...
I'm still making sure.

-I'm setting it up.
-I mean, 15 children?

[Deon] Yes. I wanna make sure
you're not using me.

-[Karen laughs] Oh, my gosh.
-I want to stop at the
at the new house real quick.

I need to check on something.

[Karen] Okay.

I need to stop
by the new house

because I actually left
Karen's Valentine's Day
gift there.

Hopefully she likes them,

and the progress
that's been made on the house.

What do you think, Ma?

-[hesitates] I... think--
-A happy Valentine's Day.

Aw...

Thank you.

I love the these.
These are beautiful.

-Yeah.
-Ah...

Thanks.

Why do you have that grin
that's a pretend grin?

I really, really love
what you're doing
with the date.

Mm-hmm?

I just expected
more from the house.

Like, more closer
to being ready.

The color,
I feel is beautiful.

[Deon] Okay?

[Karen] I just feel like
we're at ground zero again.

This is why I don't bring you
to any of my real estate jobs

because you don't
have the vision
and I get it.

Any of your previous
real estate jobs
we aren't living in.

All I'm waiting on
for you to say is,

"We're in. Let's--
let's go ahead
and start

getting our furniture--"

Baby, there's been
all types of issues
with this house.

Mold.

-Mold?
-Mold, yes.

Why didn't you tell me
about the mold?

-Black mold.
-How serious is the mold?

-Black mold?
-No, baby, listen.

I don't like you doing this.

I'm not gonna put our family

in a precarious or
a dangerous situation ever.

-I know you won't.
-So if I'm in here
or you're in here,

you know, I must have
taken care of it.

-I hired a company--
-I know you would
take care of it,

but why didn't you tell me
what's going on in the house?

[Karen] Black mold?

So why didn't you tell me
what's going on in the house?

Just tell me.

We were just...
I was just talking

-to the boys on our date--
-Why would I tell you
that, baby?

You're taking care
of 14 children.

You're taking care of things
at the other house.

Why would I bring
this type of headache
home to you?

I just really need
Derrico to understand

that he has to
communicate with me

when it affects
the whole entire family.

I hear you.
I just don't agree.

I am not in the
Valentine's dating mood
right now.

-Really?
-Have it as you may.

That's how I feel.

Okay.

Because I-- You don't...
You're not realizing
what I'm telling you.

But you're not realizing
what I'm telling you.

-That's the thing.
-What do I need
to realize?

-You need to realize
that you need to...
-I know that you--

-...tell me the stuff.
-I know you've been
waiting to get in the house.

-Yes!
-I know you complained
over the other house,

about every single thing
at the other house.

-Was the only one complaining?
-At what point does
the complaining stop?

I just want to go home.

This is definitely
not how I imagined

our Valentine's date going.

It's just
extremely frustrating.

Derrico knows
how much I care
about this new house.

And more than anything,

how much he has
to keep me in the loop
with it.

[Deon] The tension
in this car is thick,

and I don't want to be
in a fight with her right now,

especially on
Valentine's Day.

I know we're both frustrated
with the situation,

but I also realize
that Karen does have a point.

[car beeps]

Where are we?

[whispers indistinctly]

Seriously, where are--
Why you stopped the car?

You just stopped
in the middle of...
I don't even know.

Why are we here?

-Step up.
-Oh my gosh.

-[Deon whispers indistinctly]
-Oh... [cries]

Just give me a hug.

Seriously, baby, I heard you.

I appreciate that.

It's the place
where we first met.

-And you pulled
the car over... [laughs]
-That's why I did it.

Do these more often.

Yeah, see,
I'm always full of surprises.

-Yes, you are.
-You never know
what I'm gonna do next.

-That's true.
-See?

That is so true.
So thank you.

You're welcome.

All right.

[exhales]

I just want to let you know
that I do apologize
for not hearing you.

Stop.

I need to let
those words simmer.

-Because I rarely hear it.
-I apologize
for not hearing you.

Oh, gosh,
stay right here again.

I apologize for
not hearing you.

I'm just trying
to fill you up with them.

It's like a turn on
to hear you apologizing.

I apologize for
not hearing you, baby.

[sighs] Oh, my gosh.

[Deon] Well, I promise
going forward,
I'm gonna do my very best

to keep you in the loop
on the house.

That means good
or bad things.

[Karen] I appreciate that.

And I really appreciate
just how hard
you've been working,

-you know, on the house.
-I appreciate that.

Progress. Look at that.

All right. You ready?

I am ready.
Let's go home and...

continue our
Valentine's Day celebration.

-Not with all of them
14 babies at home.
-[Karen laughs]

Plus GG and Eric.

-[Karen laughing] Oh, my gosh.
-Roadblock.

[Karen] Next time on
Doubling Down
With the Derricos...

I'm going to go snow skiing,

and I want all of you guys
to come with me.

[kids] Yes!

[Deon] I don't know
about that.

Living my best life.

[humming indistinctly]

-Black people don't ski.
-Mmm-mmm.

[screaming]

Oh... [bleep]
No! [bleep]

It's hard on another level.

I never saw the fun in cold.

Oh!

[woman] GG, you okay?

Just feeling
a little dizziness.

How long have you been
experiencing dizziness?

At least a couple of weeks.

[GG] Deon didn't want me
to stop the chemo.

So I dare not
mention this to him.

Because the first thing
that's going to come up is,

"I told you not to stop."

[Deon] Come here, Dawsyn.

-I've made you a snowball!
-[Deon] Come here.

It's so cold
to go outside.

-Mommy-Tommy
-[girl] Mother.

She's hurt.

Karen, what happened?

[man] Let me
check her pulse.

Let's not everybody
crowd around.

[Deon] Karen,
what's wrong?

-[Karen whispering] My heart.
-[Deon] Your heart?

[man] Call an ambulance.

[siren blaring]
