BK and Brittany walks up to everybody around the buses. "Who's excited as I am that we're back out on the road", BK asked everyone?! Karen walked up laughing with some new guy, Jensen, she had been seeing for about a week now. Jimi watched them with a sadden look on his face, then got up to walk off. "Jimi man, where you goin", Luke asked? "I need to call Lil Man", Jimi responded as he got on the bus not even looking back. When Kimberly saw that Jimi shut the bus door behind him she turned towards Karen. "Who's this and why'd you bring him here", Kimberly asked Karen about Jensen? "Oh everybody this is Jensen, we've been talking for about a week now" Karen said smiling. "Ok why is he here, you know that hurt Jimi", Kimberly upsettingly said. "I didn't mean to upset him, but he's the one that chose to let me walk out the door and not try to fix us" telling Kimberly. Kimberly just shook her head in disappointment. Karen sighed, "I'll be right back," talking Jensen. Jensen shook his head okay. Karen walked on the bus and everybody sat outside awkwardly quiet until Luke spoke up. "You know you don't have a chance in hell", Luke told Jensen. Jensen gave Luke a confused look. "They're gonna end up back together", Luke said. "There's somethin bout you I don't like also", T-Hubb told Jensen. Jensen started shaking nervously.The bus door opened back up. "I didn't tell you to go get a new man to replace me", Jimi yelled at Karen. "And you didn't stop me from walkin out either", Karen yelled back. "Karen wait", Jimi said as he grabbed her arm. Karen stopped and looked at Jimi, Jensen got up and started dodging after Jimi. "Let me go", Karen told Jimi rolling her eyes. "Karen please just listen", Jimi said still having a grip of her arm. "She said let her go", Jensen said. Ignoring Jensen's comment Jimi continued, "I shouldn't have let you go! I should've tried to fix us! I regret it all! Can we please call off the divorce?" "Get your damn hands off my woman", Jensen angrily told Jimi as tried to move Jimi's hand off of Karen's arm. Jimi got this fighting look on his face. "Do not touch me again", Jimi angrily told Jensen as nice as he possible could. "Then get your damn hands off her", Jensen told Jimi. Jimi just gave Karen the 'better get him' look. "Sweety back up", Karen told Jensen. "You gonna let him run over you like this", Jensen asked? Karen didn't say anything, she was kinda nervous and everybody could tell. "Whatever, I'm gonna go get a beer", Jensen said. "I'm sorry Jimi, I can't" Karen nervously said as she backed up and throwing Jimi's hand off her arm. "What do you mean you can't", Jimi curiously asked not knowing what she meant?! "I gotta go", Karen nervously told Jimi as she walked off. Jimi watched Karen walk away again, only this time worried about her. "Don't worry man, she'll come back to you" Phillip told Jimi! "Yeah there's somethin about him I don't like either", Tyler said! "Did y'all see that", Jimi asked with a confused look? Everybody gave Jimi a weird look. "That wasn't the Karen I know! That was a terrified woman," Jimi said worried!
A couple of hours passed Hayley, T-Hubb, Luke and Caroline were walking around the venue for some couples time, until they heard someone crying near the porter potties. "Honey do you hear that", Caroline stopped and asked Luke? "Yeah it sounds like it's comin from over here", Luke responded and started towards the porter potties. It turned out to be Karen who was crying. "Karen Sweetie, what's wrong" Caroline asked as she wrapped her arm around Karen? "I can't leave, he won't let me" Karen cried as she kept her head down. "What do you mean", Hayley asked? "The drinking makes it worse", Karen just kept crying. "Do I need to go get Jimi", T-Hubb asked Luke? "Please don't" Karen begged real quick as she looked at everyone. When she had looked up everyone had seen her bruised eye and busted lip. T-Hubb and Luke both got a pissed look on their faces. "Oh Sweetie, did he do this" Caroline sadly asked Karen? All Karen could do was cry. T-Hubb and Luke then stormed off pissed.
T-Hubb and Luke walked back to the buses mad as hell. "What's the matter guys", Phillip asked? "Jensen get your sorry ass out here" Luke yelled! "Seriously, what's goin on" BK kinda nervously asked? "The hell, I'm goin and draggin him out here" T-Hubb angrily said as he got on the bus that Jensen was on. "Why is he highly pissed and goin after Karen's new guy", BK asked about T-Hubb? All the sudden Jensen came flying off the bottom step of the bus with a pissed off T-Hubb coming after him. T-Hubb then just started pounding Jensen's face. "Guys please stop", Karen yelled running up from behind. "T man, I know you don't like the guy but you can't beat him", BK told T-Hubb as he pulled him off of Jensen. "Oh I got a damn good reason", T-Hubb said pissed off. "It was my fault", Karen said about the situation. "How the hell it was your fault", Luke aggravatedly asked? "Karen, did he do that to your face", Phillip concernly asked? Karen just walked over and helped Jensen up off the ground. "That better be the last damn time I hear of you layin a finger on her", T-Hubb told Jensen angrily. Jensen then put his arm around Karen and they started back on the bus, then he looked back everyone with a smirk. Luke then started to dodge after him but was stop by BK, who still had ahold of T-Hubb. "Who's gonna tell Jimi bout that", Caroline asked? "If he finds out there won't be no stoppin him", Phillip replied. "Why is she with him if he's obviously beatin her", Rebecca asked confusingly? "She refuses to leave, but why", Hayley asked aloud? Everybody walked into the venue still discussing this.
Phillip was going to the stage for LBT to do their sound check and everybody else going in the auditorium to listen to their sound check. "We need to open her eyes to what he is doin to her", Brittany was telling everyone as they got to the stage. "Yes we do, before it's too late", Phillip added. "Who's eyes are y'all openin", Kimberly asked? "Umm", Rebecca was afraid to tell say cause Jimi was standing there also with Schlappy. Jimi wasn't hisself up there on the stage, it was like a piece of him died ever since his and Karen's split. "Jimi, think you need new shoes man", Luke jokingly asked cause Jimi's shoe had a big ole hole in it. Usually Jimi would crack a joke back with Luke, but not this time he just sadly shrugged his shoulders. Karen and Jensen came walking up, Karen had sunglasses on hiding her busted eye mainly from Jimi. "Don't even think bout goin after him again, not now anyhow", BK quietly telling T-Hubb and Luke. They unwillingly agreed to what BK said. "Why the sunglasses Karen? We're inside", Kimberly asked. "Does it matter", Jensen rudely asked? Karen wasn't on the stage yet, she was still down next Jensen. "Don't talk to my wife like that", Schlappy told Jensen. "Then tell her not to ask stupid questions", Jensen told Schlappy. Luke started after him, but Caroline grabbed his arm. Karen started to walk off to get on the stage, just before Jensen grabbed her arm. "Not a damn word ok", Jensen angrily warned Karen. Jimi then looked up from his guitar with a concerned look. Karen started to turn back around towards the stage, but Jensen kinda jerked her back by her arm again. "I said ok", Jensen angrily told Karen. "Jensen your hurting me", Karen painfully said. Jimi threw his guitar off him and watched Karen. T-Hubb started to go after Jensen again, until BK grabbed him. "Let Jimi handle it this time until otherwise", BK told T-Hubb. "Let go of her", Jimi told Jensen. "This don't concern you", Jensen said. "She's my wife still and the mother of my son, so yeah it concerns me" Jimi said as he jumped down off the stage. "See she's with me now! You told her her to leave months ago and filed for divorce" Jensen told Jimi! "Yeah, and that was the biggest mistake of my life", Jimi said regretful. "Tell him your mine now", Jensen told Karen as he shook her. "How bout you let go of her arm and we handle this like men", Jimi suggest. Jensen then slung Karen away and her sunglasses came off, first thing Jimi saw was her busted eye. "Did you do that to her", Jimi yelled at Jensen?! Jimi was beyond furious, mad as hell was an understatement. "Did he do that", a furious Jimi asked Karen?
