Then he inquired about Tiffany’s whereabouts to no available.

When she called back she was drunk and out with Dante- who was being overly brash yelling disrespectful comments in the background.

Maisha got a chance to chat with Jemma solo. She confronted her about being the wedge between two best friends. Ex-besties Jake and Kevin got a chance to have some words at the party. Kevin tells him, “when I told you to get a girlfriend… I didn’t mean mine.” Ultimately, the two shook up and made a truce.

Kevin and Jemma got a chance to talk. They both confessed their jealousy of seeing each other with other people…

Love Jones

Tiff is doing yoga and hears a knock at the door, it’s Emmett. She’s confused why he didn’t use his key to their home. He staggers in and asks about an Isley’s Brother CD. She catches on, he’s roleplaying his favorite scene from Love Jones. She digs it! The two go on a date and stay in character…

They attend a comedy show and you know how comics can be… they point out couples in the crowd and go in! Of course, the comedian did so and targeted the two. He said some things that shook Emmett back to his reality.

After the comedy spot, Emmett took Tiff to dance and see the beautiful city of Chicago. He took her to the spot where they first meet, at the Taste of Chicago. Emmett got down on his knee, she was confused because they were already married. He wanted to upgrade her ring and confess he didn’t want an open marriage. He told her, when he’s having sex with other women, all he can think about is her. Tiffany wanted to keep their open arrangement. She wanted variety. He vowed he could give her that.

However, Emmett gave her an ultimatum that if they weren’t exclusive to each other then he didn’t want to be married to Tiff anymore!
