Air date: Dec 16, 2019

Jaclin says she has been living a nightmare since she lost her 11-month-old daughter, Madalin, 10 years ago, when she accidentally suffocated while sleeping in the same bed with Jaclin and her boyfriend, Justin. Jaclin says she has become a “ticking time bomb” and looks for ways to punish herself for what happened to Madalin. Justin, who says he’s been with Jaclin since high school, says they both blame each other for their daughter's death. Justin says they talk about marriage, but there is no way he can marry Jaclin in the state she is in now. Alicia says she has been friends with both Justin and Jaclin since high school, and their relationship has always been tumultuous. Alicia says Justin and Jaclin are both still in pain and need help.
