Braxton Family Values
First they’re bickering, then they’re booty shaking – Trina, Towanda, Traci, Toni and Tamar are back. When Evelyn and Traci visit Toni in LA, tensions flare due to Tamar’s newfound fame. Trina’s marriage is put to the test thanks to her new houseguests, and Toni admits she’s been seeing her ex.
Unhappy with the producer Vince has chosen for her, Tamar goes behind his back to meet with someone else. Traci considers opening a salon and Towanda attempts to whip Toni’s new assistant into shape.
Gabe and Trina fight over the GPS he installed in her phone while Tamar flies to Chicago to be a guest D.J. After talking to Towanda about their relationship, Andre’s inspired to write a book.
Toni asks Traci to back her as a singer for a show in Indiana, and also asks Tamar to teach Traci the choreography, but the lesson takes a bad turn when Traci walks off the stage; and Trina meets Evelyn's new boyfriend.
Trina graduates from business school and receives a surprise from her dad and also throws a party to celebrate; and Toni and Tamar fight when Toni announces that she's firing her manager.
Toni has surgery; Andre writes a book; Tamar heads into the studio for the recording of her album Love and War.
Trina and Gabe agree it’s time for Towanda and Andre to move out of their house, but disagree on how and when to tell her. With Evelyn on a break from seeing Doc, Towanda informs her mother that she’s fixing her up on a blind date. Evelyn reluctantly agrees to go.
Tamar tells her sisters how stressed she is about their upcoming gig in New York City. They haven’t sung together in a while and have little time to prepare. Terrence, the girls’ vocal coach, runs scales with the girls until Tamar interrupts, saying they don’t have time for Traci being unprepared. Terrence suggests they remove all the bad energy which offends Tamar.
Tamar gathers the girls to ask if they want to record a song without Toni. Traci says she’s been down this road before and isn’t ready to give up her cosmetology career to pursue the family album. Towanda assures her they’ll still be able to pursue their own passions.
Over lunch, Toni tells her sisters that she’s being inducted into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame. Toni asks her sisters to sing at the ceremony as a tribute to her. They are flattered and agree to do it, but worry they’ll have trouble working together without fighting.
True feelings are revealed during a therapy session; Toni opines that Traci needs to lose weight, and she tells her sisters that she is through carrying them.
Tamar and Vince clash during a trip to Chicago; Towanda shows off her new place, but her mood is dampened by a request from Andre; and Trina's husband suggests marriage counseling.
Traci explains how she embraced Toni’s advice to lose some weight, and how seeing Vince’s scary situation was even more motivation.
Mamma Braxton gives her reason as to why Vince pulled through such a rough medical state, and why her family is always there for one another.
The family gathers to be with Tamar, who’s stressed about Vince’s recovery. Evelyn asks what’s going on with the Soul Train Awards and Tamar reveals she was asked to sing a Gladys Knight song. Her sisters are surprised. Trina, Towanda and Traci are going to present with Tamar, but they had no idea Tamar was also asked to sing.
All the sisters go shopping for Evelyn’s wedding dress in Atlanta. They all have opinions but are frustrated because Evelyn is being indecisive. Toni returns to L.A. while everyone else visits the Botanical Gardens as a possible wedding venue. They discuss music, but Evelyn’s not sure what she wants.
Momma E is so stressed from the wedding plans that she’s driving her daughters crazy!
Evelyn calls off the wedding; Toni tells Tamar that she has parted ways with Vince; Gabe tries to make amends by confessing his transgressions against Trina to the family at dinner.
Trina copes with leaving Gabe, and performs original material in front of her sisters for the first time; Tamar speaks with a fertility doctor; and the family appears on "Dr. Phil" to vent their issues.
The reunion show, hosted by Wendy Williams, features the girls, Evelyn and Dr. Sherry. Toni discusses her work, Trina and Towanda explain their complicated marriages and Tamar comments on everything.
