00:00 The government says while your green card is pending,
00:02 you can travel in and out the United States.
00:05 But unfortunately, the processing times is going to be,
00:08 on average, 8 to 12 months.
00:11 Wow.
00:13 I'm stuck here in the United States with all my children.
00:17 This is a nightmare.
00:18 I made a huge mistake.
00:20 I should have never come here.
00:23 A 90-day fiance happily ever after,
00:28 Big Ed and Liz are back.
00:30 They're gearing up for their wedding,
00:32 and Ed is spending more time with Liz and her daughter.
00:35 And Liz loves their bond.
00:37 So Riley, you know the wedding's coming up, right?
00:39 Yeah.
00:40 What are you most excited about for the wedding?
00:44 To see my family.
00:46 Oh, that's sweet.
00:48 So I'm marrying your mommy.
00:52 So I want to be your stepdad.
00:55 OK.
00:57 Would you be OK with that?
01:00 Yeah.
01:02 Yeah?
01:03 Mm-hmm.
01:06 Yes.
01:08 Because I love you.
01:11 My favorite version of Ed is when he's spending time
01:14 with my daughter.
01:15 However, Ed says they're still adjusting
01:17 to all the major changes, including
01:19 Liz moving to Arkansas and them planning for their big day.
01:22 And he says that he just wants things to go smoothly.
01:26 I'm trying to navigate having Riley live here,
01:29 making sure that Liz is happy, and planning the wedding.
01:33 So there's a lot on my plate.
01:34 And at times, it can be pretty stressful.
01:39 And when we get stressed, that's when we argue.
01:42 And in the past, a little argument
01:44 could lead to a breakup.
01:46 It's a big deal to commit to be with this person
01:50 for the rest of your life.
01:52 And I've been through a divorce.
01:54 Liz has been through two.
01:56 So it's not something that we want to do again.
02:00 Emily and Kobe arrived in Cameroon.
02:02 And Emily and her family are having a bit of a culture
02:04 shock.
02:05 We've been in Cameroon for just a couple of hours.
02:08 And it's pretty shocking.
02:11 This is very foreign to us.
02:12 We've never had this experience.
02:14 It's the same thing.
02:15 Like, when I first moved over to America,
02:17 everybody's eye was on me.
02:19 So I had to try as much as I can to blend in the culture.
02:23 No, I'm excited.
02:24 Everything's just been very overwhelming so far.
02:27 And we're not used to it.
02:28 So it's just another thing that we're learning.
02:32 Last episode, we learned that Sophie and Rob are living apart.
02:35 And they met up to potentially reconcile.
02:37 But things didn't work out.
02:39 Even if we have problems, she should be at home working
02:43 on these problems with me.
02:44 We should be finding ways to get over them.
02:47 We're married.
02:48 Like, I actually look at the sanctity of marriage.
02:53 I care about making it work.
02:56 I care about doing everything that we possibly
02:59 can to make it work before we start tearing it apart.
03:03 He probably is so annoyed at me right now.
03:11 And probably like, oh, she didn't come home.
03:13 She's the worst.
03:14 But it's like, I don't want to move in because, like,
03:16 he's pressuring me to move in.
03:17 Like, I want to move in because I generally
03:19 feel this marriage is going to work.
03:21 And we can be happy together.
03:23 And Sophie's mom is convinced that Rob is never
03:26 going to change and that she shouldn't try
03:27 to work things out with him.
03:29 I did tell you he can't change.
03:31 He's an ass [BLEEP]
03:33 Maybe he can reflect on his actions.
03:35 I don't know.
03:36 [LAUGHTER]
03:36 You're talking about Rob, right?
03:37 That's why I'm trying-- I just want him to do that.
03:40 Like, I'm not 100% sure I'm going back today.
03:42 I'm not going to argue all night for Rob.
03:43 You might go back today.
03:44 Yeah, if it goes well.
03:47 I'm really trying.
03:48 No one can say I'm not trying.
03:49 It's kind of sad that you've got to try to be with the person
03:52 that you love.
03:54 You should just be like--
03:55 Yeah, but it's a marriage.
03:56 That's not as easy as just, like, your boyfriend.
03:59 Mahmood traveled to the United States to be with Nicole.
04:03 But she seemed way more into PDA than him.
04:06 I just saw him, and I just went running.
04:08 And I just wanted--
04:09 This time, she's the one.
04:10 Wait, not me.
04:12 Yeah, I just went running to him.
04:14 I love you.
04:17 Come here.
04:18 Don't be shy.
04:19 I'm not shy.
04:19 I'm just, like, tired.
04:21 Like--
04:21 [CHUCKLES]
04:24 I noticed you didn't want to kiss me on my lips.
04:26 [CHUCKLES]
04:30 [KISSES]
04:32 [CHUCKLES]
04:33 Does that make you uncomfortable?
04:35 Yeah.
04:36 Mahmood's in America.
04:37 I can do whatever I want to him.
04:40 She lives like that, I know.
04:41 But, like, as Muslim, I'm not, like, feel
04:44 good to do that around people.
04:46 He also wasn't a fan of how she dressed
04:48 to greet him at the airport.
04:49 What are you talking about?
04:53 No.
04:53 [CHUCKLES]
04:56 I wanted to look nice for you, honey.
04:57 You always look nice.
04:58 It's OK.
04:59 I'd like to show you.
05:00 [INAUDIBLE]
05:01 [CHUCKLES]
05:03 Just don't even ruin a nice moment.
05:05 So you-- don't stare.
05:06 So don't stare.
05:07 I'm saying don't running after that.
05:09 [CHUCKLES]
05:10 [MUSIC PLAYING]
05:15 I know the rules here.
05:16 I know how things work.
05:18 Whereas, like, in Egypt, I don't know,
05:20 like, how far you can take it.
05:22 But here, nobody cares, so.
05:23 [CHUCKLES]
05:25 I didn't know yet because I'm just come.
05:27 I'm just, like, having a few minutes here.
05:29 Nicole was concerned about how he
05:31 was acting during their reunion and what
05:33 this could mean for their relationship going forward.
05:36 I'm just so excited to have my husband here and by my side.
05:39 And I was, of course, hoping that the reunion
05:42 was going to be, like, happier.
05:43 But I know from personal experience
05:45 just how exhausting the flight from Egypt can be.
05:48 And I know he's homesick.
05:50 I just hope that Mahmoud really is just exhausted.
05:54 And that's it.
05:56 Because I start to, like, go into this, like,
05:57 doomed area in my mind that maybe he'll never--
06:03 maybe he'll never like it.
06:04 And that's, like, a huge concern of mine.
06:07 Ashley is upset at Manuel because he still
06:09 hasn't told his kids about her.
06:11 And they're married.
06:12 I see deflection, loads and loads of deflection.
06:18 It's your personal life.
06:26 It looks like you're hiding something.
06:29 I want to be your wife, Manuel.
06:40 [CRYING]
06:43 [SPEAKING SPANISH]
06:47 Oh, my God.
06:47 [SPEAKING SPANISH]
06:51 Jasmine and Gino have babies on the brain.
06:53 But Jasmine's worried about telling him
06:55 about her fertility issues.
06:57 To sustain my pregnancy, I have to receive daily an injection.
07:02 It was very traumatic for me.
07:05 Baby, don't be in such a panic.
07:08 You're young.
07:09 You are only in your 30s.
07:11 The fact that I'm now the age I am,
07:14 it's going to make everything more difficult.
07:16 And that's not the only thing on Jasmine's mind.
07:19 She's also worried about her mom's health.
07:22 I really miss my family.
07:23 Now my mom is really sick.
07:28 And now I'm a crappy mom.
07:30 I'm a crappy daughter.
07:32 Should I take a plane back to Panama right now?
07:35 And I don't know.
07:36 I don't know.
07:37 I'm so confused.
07:38 I don't know what to do.
07:39 Oh, my God.
07:49 I feel so bad right now.
07:50 I'm sorry.
07:51 They met up with a lawyer about bringing Jasmine's kids
07:54 to the States.
07:55 And they received the devastating news
07:57 that it could take up to two years.
07:59 This is a nightmare.
08:02 I know that this was going to take time,
08:04 but never, ever two years.
08:07 Like, if I had known that, trust me, I wouldn't be here.
08:11 I feel at this moment that I make a huge mistake.
08:15 I should have never come here without my kids.
