Briana Dejesus- After dropping the court order against Devoin, she decides to let him around and try to be a father. She explains to him what she did and if he messes with her again, she will persue the court order. She agrees to let Devoin babysit for an hour, but ends up coming back after 30 minutes when he can't handle Nova.



Mackenzie Douthit- Josh decides not to move into Mackenzie's parents' house, but agrees to stay there one night a week to help with Gannon. Even though they have a kid together, Mackenzie's mother makes them sleep in different rooms because she doesn't believe in sex before marriage. Mackenzie is thinking about birth control just in case but, because of her attitudes, she can't talk to her mom about anything. She doesn't want to hide this from her mom, so she texts her to let her know she's getting the Mirena IUD. When she gets home, Mackenzie explains to her mom that she plans to stay abstinent, but with teenagers, things can change quickly. This is a very sad situation and the fact that her mom never had a sex talk with her led to her getting pregnant in high school.

(Smart girl) Now that Joey is making more money, they decide they can afford a bigger appartment so Molli can have her own room.

Katie and Joey begin to fight over their finances, with leads to Joey storming off to work.

They get into a heated argument and her mom interveins, suggesting they try counseling to learn to communicate better.
