Strange Love

The lovebirds wake up in Como. Brigitte is feeling guilty about her trist last night. Flav feels her unease and coaxes her to take a bubble bath. Flav tries to be romantic, but blows it when he kicks over a glass of wine then goes ballistic on the chambermaid when she tries to clean up after him. They tour a vineyard and stomp grapes, and take a ferry to Bellagio where they go to dinner. They have a long conversation in which they open their hearts. Brigitte agrees to go to New York because she needs to see if she and Flav really still have something.

It's the final push for New York. After cooking a ""bonding dinner"" for her kids, Flav lets Brigitte go home to face her fiancé‚ and stresses that she might not come back. She surprises him and us by showing up with her bags packed. The couple departs for the Big Apple.

In preparation for his upcoming Public Enemy show, Flav takes Brigitte shopping to ""pimp out"" his girl. Now in NYC, Brigitte finds that Flav's attentions are scattered and they have a fight about him making phone calls during lunch. That night, they go to the Russell Simons PE show. Brigitte makes a fool of herself and Flav destroys his dressing room. They fight and sleep apart. NY might not be all Brigitte thought it would be.

Flav takes Brigitte to the Bronx and she's warmly accepted by Beverly Johnson (his ex) and her family. They get her fitted for gold teeth and an adoring mob forms outside the jewelry/teeth store. They have dinner with Luigi and talk about their relationship, and Brigitte still has concerns. Flav straightens things out with Public Enemy and takes Brigitte to the next Public Enemy concert that night, giving her silver teeth as a token of his love. She comes onstage and flashes the crowd a silver smile. The fans go wild.

Vegas. Brig & Flav arrive at the Hard Rock and discover a suite full of gifts. They go gambling and to a strip club, but they bicker over each other flirting with other people. Brigitte gives a guy chips. Flavor gets a lap dance. The next morning, they have breakfast in the room and then a couple's massage. They have a conversation about their relationship where Flav tells her that Mattia is only after her for her money. At dinner, Flav tells Brigitte to move to Vegas. He wants to have a child with her. They go gambling; Flav snaps at Brigitte (he doesn't like to be touched while gambling) and she goes to bed alone. He stays up and loses all his money.

Brigitte receives her ticket home. She's leaving tomorrow. Her impending departure brings out the desperate side of Flav. He tells Brigitte that if she moves to America he will help her raise her kids. He tells her not to marry Mattias. If she has to go home, he wants her to at least stay single so they have a chance together. It's hard to tell where Brigitte's heart lies. She loves her Flav, but this whole experience has left her emotionally exhausted. She's confused about what to do ... and that's BEFORE they get to the wedding chapel.
