Love After Lockup; S3, EP 2

John & Kristiana:
John is decked out in his fancy shirt with the purple streamers as it’s the morning of his prison girlfriend Kristiana’s release. He hired a limo for the classiest Love After Lockup meet up of all time. John also completed his wedding-on-the-go project, by building a wedding altar in the back of his pickup truck. His limo driver and “Shaman” (also a fellow streamer shirt enthusiast) helped him to assemble the portable wedding location before heading over to the prison to bust out the bride….who he has yet to propose to. Why not just get it over with all in one day?! One stop shopping.

The limo driver, who sounds like he possibly also worked part time for the mob, was very involved in the whole mission. He gave John a pep talk, helped him with the logistics, is possibly going to be the best man, and even took Kristiana’s cardboard box of prison trinkets into the front seat for safe keeping. John better give him an excellent 5 star review!

Kristiana emerged from the car that dumped her outside the prison walls and we finally got to hear more of her story. She was incarcerated for burglary, though she has had several felonies due to drug addiction. Kristiana,(who looked like she might have been captain of the prison softball team) was so impressed to see the limo John had hired, though she seemed weary of his impromptu proposal. They left her answer as a cliffhanger, and noe we have to wait a whole week to find out her answer. I hope the eagle wing cake topper doesn’t defrost and spoil by then…

Scott & Lindsey:

Scott is preparing for his 27 year old girlfriend Lindsey’s arrival by stocking up on her new wardrobe from Rainbow and prepping her overnight bag. He headed an hour and a half to meet up with Lindsey’s grandmother, who is currently raising her daughter, Miley Grace. Scott has been supporting Miley Grace as well, taking her school shopping for clothes and spending time with her. Seems a bit creepy, but theoretically very nice. Scott discussed the need to be close to Lindsey’s daughter, as he lost his own son at the age of 19 to a car accident. It seems like Scott does have the right intentions, though there is a big creep factor due to the huge age gap, and the fact that Lindsey is most likely scamming him… Scott has this idea that she is just a victim of circumstance, though Lindsey admits she’s just “really bad at being good”. Looking forward to seeing this pan out, especially since there was a preview where Lindsey is caught admitting to using him. 

Shavel & Quaylon:

Shavel is giddy, as she is about to head off to pick up Quaylon from prison. She has a pep talk from her mom (who’s orange hair complimented her gold shimmery lipstick beautifully). Moms feels like she needs to make sure to pay attention to any red flags she may see in her new relationship on the outside, as she’s been fooled by men before.
Shavel made a pit stop on her way to the prison to pick up Quaylon’s mom and obvious namesake, Quaylandria for the big release day (I thought he was possibly named after his mother’s love of Quaker Oats and a triathlon, but guess not). Shavel and Mama-quay are making small talk, which seemed to escalate quickly into a disagreement about where Quaylon should live. His mother wants him to come to Houston with her to have a fresh start, which it sounds like he agreed to. However, Shavel was told he would be staying with her in Kansas City. The Quaystion of the day is; where will he choose to go? Staying tuned….

Shawn & Destinee:
Shawn met up with his Babymama Kelly and eldest daughter, Gracie at Plato’s Closet, of all places, to discuss his new roommate, Destinee. His ex-girlfriend/babymama, Kelly, seems rightfully concerned that her kids will be spending time with an ex con with a prior history of drug problems, which Shawn chalks up to jealousy. He talks to his daughter about Destinee moving in, and it was pretty heartbreaking seeing her so upset. Shawn has not even met Destinee in person as she claims to have gained a lot of weight in prison (wait until he sees that she doesn’t even have filtered cat ears in person!). His poor kids… I’m sure his kids are already smarter than he is, though. Also… who let this guy have 6 kids?!

Jessica & Maurice:

Jessica is getting all dolled up to spring her prison husband from the big house. She chose a super tight dress, showing off every nook and cranny and bra strap. She went over the difficulties of being married to an inmate, such as the long drives for visits, putting money on his phone card, and coming up with new daily material to write her sexy letters every day. She also divulged that she had a little competition… Apparently Maurice was talking to another woman while incarcerated who was sending him a lot of money, though he claims never to have met her. He did, however marry Jessica, which allowed them conjugal visits, and now she is questioning if he was just using her for love, while IN lockup. Scandalous!

In most fairy tales the prince arrives on a shiny white horse, but Maurice made his entrance via a shiny white prison van and right into Jessica’s arms. He claimed to feel “exuberated” being released into the free world and with his spandex-clad boo, as they drove off to the hotel for a free range conjugal visit.
