Girls Trips & Dick flicks…

Rasheeda needs a break from her everyday so she enlists Karlie Redd and Kalenna for a girls’ trip to New Orleans.

During the trip, Karlie talks about the issues she’s having with Benzino’s new girlfriend, Althea. Thanks to Kirk and his big mouth, Benzino and Althea think that Karlie wanted Benzino back, but according to Karlie, she?s quite happy in her relationship with Yung Joc.

So much so that she has to shade Benzino’s man meat to her friends and offers Joc’s peen pic for comparison.

[Sidebar: What are we? Twelve?!?]

Yes… I’ve seen both pics and Benzino seems to have a slight edge.? Benzino feels the photos that Karlie put out were photoshopped because she feels some kinda way and I’m prone to agree with him.

Why would Karlie put both d*ck flicks out anyway. She was with them both, we already know that. And Zino’s ‘package’ was just fine when she thought she was gonna get that ring wasn’t it?

But I digress…

Who’s Screwing Who?

Benzino’s new chick Althea has a past and apparently has a ‘history’ with quite a few men on the show, including Stevie J. & Nikko.

Mimi confronts Nikko about his past with Althea and wants him to assure her that the relationship is over. Nikko confessed that he thinks Althea is still interested in him and that leads Mimi to bring up the lipstick stains she found on his collar when she was doing laundry.

Mimi spazzes and puts sends Nikko packing with his gym bag. She no longer trusts her p*rn partner and since hindsight is 20/20, Mimi feels that Nikko used her and was the one who “leaked” their sex tape after all.

Broke & Broker…

Erica Dixon’s sugar mama days seem to be coming to an end with her boyfriend O’shea (the model.

O’shea is a broke up & coming model who also happens to be a single father (click HERE for more of O’shea’s history), so his finances are practically non-existent.

“His ass can’t even make a dramatic exit, without my help!” – Erica Dixon

O’Shea felt some kinda way about Erica meeting with her baby daddy, Lil Scrappy, so he packed his bags and moved out.? But the problem is…. he ran out of gas and had to call Erica to help him out. An argument ensued on the side of the road and it’s clear that O’Shea was so hard up that he was using Erica to cover his bills.

From the credit card incident at the bowling alley, to this bizarre incident on the side of the road, it’s clear O’shea is leaning way too much on Erica financially. Erica tells him to fend for himself for a change and refuses to give him money for gas.

It’s over! And O’shea is left walking to wherever as he tries to call someone else for help.

On the flip side, this could be a sign that Scrappy and Erica should give it another try.

DNA Tests & Romance…

Kirk, in a fit of temper, accidentally told his mother-in-law about the DNA test on the baby. And of course she told her daughter, Rasheeda!

Rasheeda is aware of Kirk’s ‘trust issues’ but the DNA test was way too far! Sheeda can’t even enjoy her trip with all that on her mind but she manages to party with her girls while ignoring Kirk’s calls to explain.

But wait… it ain’t over yet.? Kirk surprises his wife by showing up in New Orleans, where he offers a sincere apology about his dumb actions.

He tells Rasheeda he loves her and doesn’t want to live without her. Through her tears and disappointment, Rasheeda forgives him and it looks like things may be making a change in their relationship as well.

Kirk gives Rasheeda a new ring and they both decide to put their rings back on and move forward.
