you've got to know about supplies, 04:25
you've got to know all these different things. 04:26
In all the years that I had this company, 04:28
never did we run out of a product, 04:30

Listen to Mama Dee. 04:35

you're gonna get in trouble. 04:40

we do not have a signed agreement yet. 04:43
My mother may say, "Oh, you know what? 04:46
I don't think I can step away." or 04:48
"I don't think D'Andra can handle this." 04:50
I don't want her to pull the rug out 04:51
from under me again. 04:52
So, I'm like a cat on a hot tin roof right now. 04:54

- I mean, if you ever got into a big, 05:01
big pickle and you said, "Mom, can you call 05:02
the president of this company or this." 05:04
I would do that for you. 05:06
I think it's been difficult for D'Andra because 05:07
she's always felt like she's in competition with me. 05:09
She thinks, "I've got to show my mother 05:12
that I can be head of a big corporation." 05:14

It's very important to me that she's there 05:35

LeeAnne is highly irritated with me right now, 05:56
we got into a big fight. 05:58

between D'Andra and I was that-- 06:06

all these events, that that's her justification 06:11

Is this where I go to Columbia and 06:21
visit with my other wife and four kids? 06:23
- Yeah right. 06:25
Why are you looking for something negative 06:27
in my relationship when you're my best friend 06:29
and you want to be a part of the wedding. 06:32
Here's the problem, I'm not sharing 06:34
information with D'Andra right now. 06:37
And the reason is because 06:40
she's Brandi's drinking buddy. 06:43
If Brandi and D'Andra sit around drinking, 06:45
bitching about me, I'm obviously not her best friend. 06:48
If she wasn't getting drunk and telling Brandi 06:52
everything, then maybe I would trust her. 06:56
