Couples Therapy Recap: Meatball Problems (Recap)

Couples Therapy Treach's dad

We’re back for essentially a part two of the last episode which I recapped at length here. Tonight’s recap will be much shorter.  Treach’s dad was still being a jerk when Dr. Jenn spent a few more minutes with him. She ditches him to go find Treach. Dr. Jenn comforts Treach who is really devastated. His dad is having a huge breakdown in the green room, a place they do not usually film so this seems really real. Dr. Jenn goes to get Treach who doesn’t want to go see him, but Cicely goes with. His dad spills his guts. He is crying so hard, telling Treach he is sorry and he loves him. He knows he messed up and he’s sorry. Treach walks over and pulls his father up off the couch and they embrace and Treach’s dad sobs like a young widow over her husband’s casket. The sounds he makes are heartbreaking. The entire thing is heartbreaking. He’s begging for forgiveness. Sobbing. He says he will do anything. More begging. Treach says, “You just did it.” Oh dear God #allergies. Treach wipes his father’s eyes and says he is glad he came. #DeepBreaths

Deena and Chris finally argue about something. Deena doesn’t rub Chris long enough. He wanted 45 minutes and she only gave him 30 minutes.  Seriously. That is the issue.

It’s time for group. The experience is almost over so Dr. Jenn wants each of them to tell their partner what exactly they need to go to the next level.  Jenna is first. She says that for the first time in her life, she feels like most of her needs are being met. She is concerned that Mike might try to change her. Mike says he needs to be heard and not interrupted. Dick says he doesn’t know how to answer the question because they are trying to remain friends after the breakup. Dick says he just needs to keep her in his life because she is one of the only people he can open up to. There relationship is over but he doesn’t want to lose all of her. Stephanie’s response is not shown. She was never there as a girlfriend but as an ex and is in another relationship so this whole thing has been uncomfortable for her to say the least. Couples Therapy Deena and Chris

Deena says that what she needs is for him to tell her what he needs because he spends so much of his time doing what she needs. AKA, he’s Gregg Leakes Jr. carrying around his balls in her purse for her. Chris is worried about the future. Chris needs to get his own identity. He doesn’t know who he is. Chris leaves group angry. Chris feels inadequate after group so he gets angry and withdrawn.

Later, Deena and Chris talk in bed. Deena asks if Chris is okay. He says he feels like he has heard this all before. Deena points out that she tells him that everyday, so does his mother and the rest of the family. Perhaps now that people who have only known him for a couple of weeks are telling him the same thing, he will take it in. Chris seems to be lacking in ambition. He keeps saying if it were easy he would do it. Why does it have to be easy?

Dick and Juan Pablo both talk to Chris. Chris doesn’t know what type of job he wants. They guys are not very good at mentoring the kid. But it’s hard to mentor someone with no direction whatsoever. But somehow, I think Chris realizes he is not ready to marry Deena. He needs to get his own act together first.

Dick talks to Chris about Stephanie. The breakup was not really Dick’s idea. He’s still very attached to her. Dr. Mike takes Dick to meet a guy named Jake who has tons of tats just like Dick. I wonder if Dick has ever considered he could have gotten it from a dirty tattoo needle? Nah, he probably knows how he got it. Anyway, Jake tells him he got HIV in 1983 from one night of drug use shooting up coke. Basically, Jake tells Dick he will be able to get laid again.

Now, for Jenna’s closure about her mother. Dr. Jenn found her mother’s grave and wants to go with her to the gravesite. They will go there next week. Also, Treach goes off on Cicely about something and she says the relationship is over.

    The Treach scenes with his father were heartwrenching. I am glad they ended on a good note and hope it stays that way.

    Maybe Dick and his new friend will get together later…….

    Glad this episode wasn’t all about the Juan Pablo.

    Wow. It was beautiful how Treach was able to not only lift his father up but to also wipe away his father’s tears and forgive him. Treach showed so much compassion to the man who had hurt him for 30 years. What a class act.

      Treach is just too good for Cecily. Maybe he’s too forgiving, because I would have to get away from her constant harping and accusations.

        ​I think Treach’s less desirable side comes out next week…

    I love Treach! What a great reunion for him and his father, I hope they continue to build their relationship. Jenna seems better this episode, but was it me, or did she look like a clown in the group session?
    Also, can they PLEASE fix the camera shot of the front of the building between scenes with the dead flower hanging down the side of the flower pot? it drives me nuts every week, they used the same shot last year, too!

    Oh my goodness!! It was great moment for everyone when Treach’s father finally said he was sorry and asked for Treach’s forgiveness. That moment of resolution from hurtful past experiences is what healing is about, and it was good to see that it can happen when people are open to the process. I hope Treach and his father stay in contact and continue to build a good relationship. I was happy that Dick spoke with someone who has lived with the HIV virus for 30 years. It seems to have given him hope and opened his eyes to the possibilities of living a fulfilling life despite his status. Jenna seemed more present on this episode, as if she had come down from whatever substance she had been taking. I will try to keep an open mind about her visit to her mother’s grave next week. Deena does not need to hold onto Chris because he is not contributing to their relationship. She should wake up before it’s to late and he derails her life.

    Strange, my allergies were acting up too – must have been something in the air (throughout the U.S.).

    It now makes sense why Dick’s (ex)girlfriend appeared so uncomfortable since the 1st episode. But being in another relationship, I’m surprised she even came on the show.

    I must have missed something or they’ll go further into it next week – why did it take the show / Dr. Jenn to find Jenna’s mother’s grave? You’d think after all these years she would’ve sought it out herself?!

    Thanks TT.
