90 Day Fiance, Before the 90 Days; Season 7 Episode 10

Niles & Matilda:

The happy couple were off to Matilda’s hometown of Kumasi so Niles could meet the family. Of course he was going to have to call the caterers to cancel since they wouldn’t be getting married on this trip, but he felt hopeful the family Matilda would still accept him anyway (Hope he brought the Schnapps!)
Matilda took her first airplane ride as the two headed towards their next stop. She asked that Niles get a haircut in order to make a good impression. As he sat down for a shape-up, he spilled his guts to the local barber, including his wedding cancellation and concerns for getting the family’s approval. The reassuring barber let him know that if he screwed up with Matilda, the family might put a curse on him, which would follow him intercontinentally. Niles could not fathom being cursed and was more worried than ever (The threat of a curse is either the best way to get a big tip, or no tip at all).
Later on Niles and Matilda took a cab to her family’s compound where they were all lined up Von Trapp- style to meet the new suitor. The crowd seemed friendly, as an overwhelmed Niles sat down to plead his case. Matilda’s elder uncle (Who was wearing a “China” souvenir t-shirt) reluctantly agreed to allow the “Door Knocking” ceremony with the caveat of a wedding ceremony in approximately 2 months. Matilda coached Niles on what to say, which made him super nervous, as he was trying to avoid any and all curses. The family accepted the loose wedding timeframe, as they set up the outdoor table for a little dinner on the patio amongst rogue chickens. Niles made sure to thank each and every one of the family members in their language, because he’s a mensch.

Vanja & Bozo:

Upon her first morning in Croatia, Vanja packed on her bright pink eye shadow as she tried to decipher if Bozo wanted to be her boyfriend; Check YES or NO. She hoped that their first full day together would bring some clarification, as the two met up to tour the town. Bozo brought her a vegan brownie as a peace offering as they walked through the historic sites, while he sang her praises. Literally. He sang amongst the old buildings, showcasing his vocal skills as Vanja felt like they were starting to make a little progress. He brought up meeting his family, but quickly made it known that it was more of a “Bringing a friend over for dinner” type of way, and not a “serious girlfriend” visit. He admitted that he wasn’t feeling a romantic connection at the moment, but was open to the possibility of that happening within the next three weeks of the visit. Vanja was confused, as the two had dropped the “L” bomb over the phone, and had planned the trip with romantic intentions. Nothing worse than being friendzoned by someone named after a clown when you’re the one in pink eyeshadow..

Sunny & OyVey-Ha:
After finding out Veah had brought her ex boyfriend to South Africa as her “plus one”, Sunny fled the scene, refusing to return. Veah stomped around her hotel room, so stressed out with her hair extension tracks in full view, as she tried to blame her poor decision making on her troubled upbringing. Feeling depressed, she decided to call her Emotional Support Ex to meet her at the market, so as not to make Sunny even more mad if he decided on the off chance to return to the hotel. While waiting for Ex Boyfriend Rory (Which she can’t pronounce and says “Wory”) to arrive, she grabbed a pineapple on a stick from a local street vendor, and was shocked to hear that “Apple Pay” was not an acceptable form of payment. Right before she was going to have to become the fruit-stick lady’s indentured servant, Rory showed up just in time to pay for her snack, as the two discussed the current dilemma. He encouraged Veah to be more open with Sunny about her past, so maybe he would better understand why she would have brought him along to play “Three’s Company”.
Back at the hotel room, Veah was a bundle of nerves, as Sunny finally agreed to meet up and discuss the state of their stupid relationship. She tried desperately (In her whiny, shaky voice) to explain her deep friendship with Rory, including the fact that he had been there during many difficult times in her life, including when the two had lost a baby together. Sunny felt bad, and probably thought he’d be owed a little makeup sexy time, and agreed to stay the night with her at the hotel. This girl needs therapy, not a very supportive ex or her new cyclops-brows vacation boyfriend.

RayNay & Chidi Chidi No BangBang:

Don’t get rid of that Dollar Tree lingerie just yet! Chidi agreed to meet up with RayNay at the beach, giving her some hope that they could work things out. They met up and walked along the filthy beach, stopping at an abandoned boat full of crabs to talk about the recent events. Chidi tried to explain his concern for RayNay’s hatred of sisters, namely his, and their recent turmoil. Raynay maintained that she’s perfectly sane and balanced, without the ability to overreact, and accused Chidi of being biased towards his sister, since she breastfeeds him (I think she’s confusing him with Angela’s Mykol, who was breastfed until he was about 9). She yelled, pointed, and snarled in Chidi’s direction, hurling insults before she jumped out of the shipwreck she’d been sitting in and went on to play in the sand as the two continued to angry-fight on the beach. I know Chidi can’t exactly run away, since he could go right into the ocean and drown and all, but he should maybe taking his chances.

Tigerlily & Adenoids:

T-Lily arrived in Turkey wearing her “Boots with the furrr” and was picked up by Adnan…orrrr a car service sent by Adnan with a card and flowers. He was awaiting his bride’s arrival back at the hotel, setting the mood with flowers and candles strewn about. He hoped his efforts would help smooth over all of their recent middle school problems. Tigerlily pulled her signature “quiet pout”, as she confronted Adnan in her baby-voice about his sexy online photos. Adenoids reminded her that he had removed his steamy pictures, as per her request, so there should be nothing left to discuss. Tigerlily, on the other hand, was still annoyed about the double standard in their relationship, pointing out that he would have been furious if she would have posted the same caliber of photo on her own social media. Adnan got angry just thinking of such a thing, but even more annoyed that they were wasting their reunion arguing back and forth and losing precious baby making time. He stormed out of the hotel room, leaving her to sit and pout in silence, as he tantrumed in the hallway. A few moments later he returned, not to apologize, but to ask that they table the discussion so they wouldn’t waste any of their romantic time together. Tigerlily agreed, though she was still, like, so totally annoyed and stuff, babe. (I’m just curious as to how she’s going to manage brushing her own hair for this whole trip without a tagalong hair-brusher)
