Alicia Fox has been watching Eva’s videos on social media. She has concerns that she is working with Kendrick, a man, and not the girls. There is somewhat of a difference. She doesn’t understand why after two years Eva wants to focus on working on her work in the ring. She didn’t see her watch the shows in the past or work to improve before the live events. She feels she hasn’t earned her respect. Ariane tells Eva what the girls were saying about her, namely Alicia, during a shopping trip.

Nikki and Brie want to open a wellness center focusing on barre classes that will give a percentage of the sales to the environment. Nikki brings up the idea of bringing their brother JJ and mother on board. Brie was not happy about that  since Nikki failed to talk to her beforehand and wants to keep it just the sisters.

She is protective and that  they are losing control of what their initial vision was for their business.

Trinity bonds with her two stepchildren over a weekend with them staying over. She tries to be the best stepmom ever. The diva rents a minivan, which Jon isn’t too crazy about. She gets a bounce house, which the kids enjoy. This wasn’t enough. So she also brings in their own petting zoo, which includes a small alligator, miniature pony and goats. From there they go to Fun Spot for go-carts and other activities.

Jon thinks she is going overboard. She was trying to be their friend rather than a authority figure. Jon gets a call from the kids’ mom concerned the they are spending too much time playing and not enough on their school work. Trinity doesn’t want any tension. Jon says he wants the kids to earn the fun rather than just be spoiled. Trinity understands his point point and respects it. There is a delicate balance, parenting 101 on ‘Total Divas.’
