How long did it take 0:00:22.880 --> 0:00:25.280 you and Will's ex wife to get to the place 0:00:25.400 --> 0:00:28.360 you are now? Bitch you living in a house I 0:00:28.520 --> 0:00:32.480 picked out? That's some cold Willow. Did you ever feel 0:00:32.520 --> 0:00:36.240 like you needed to defend your parents for any untrue 0:00:36.320 --> 0:00:39.000 things in the press. Yeah, I felt like that all 0:00:39.000 --> 0:00:42.519 the time. When someone called child Protective Services, that was 0:00:42.600 --> 0:00:46.880 the first time I've ever got furious. Plus Jordan's said 0:00:47.000 --> 0:00:49.320 she would take a lie detector test my friends, and 0:00:49.360 --> 0:00:51.080 I really want to know if she did. That's the 0:00:51.080 --> 0:01:03.120 show that I get asked about the most welcome. One 0:01:03.200 --> 0:01:05.640 of the best parts of doing our t T is 0:01:05.640 --> 0:01:09.280 the connection that we feel with you guys. So today 0:01:09.360 --> 0:01:12.200 is a special RTT.

Our 0:01:20.560 --> 0:01:24.240 first question today, Jessica in Seattle. Seeing you at the 0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:27.840 Red Table with Will's ex wife, Sharie was life changing. 0:01:28.400 --> 0:01:30.319 Thanks to you, my ex husband and I will be 0:01:30.319 --> 0:01:34.080 spending Christmas together for the first time in seven years. 0:01:35.760 --> 0:01:38.360 How long did it take you and Shari to get 0:01:38.400 --> 0:01:41.360 to the place you are now? All that makes me teary? 0:01:41.600 --> 0:01:44.760 I love that. That's good and there was a journey. 0:01:45.400 --> 0:01:47.840 It's not easy, you know. We went through some really 0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:52.640 tough times. Very few times in my life. I can 0:01:52.680 --> 0:01:56.200 recall being checked real hard. I have nothing to say. 0:01:56.320 --> 0:01:59.200 You did that I did, but you weren't not a line. 0:01:59.440 --> 0:02:02.200 You picked up the phone and I wasn't really respectful. 0:02:02.440 --> 0:02:05.000 Trey was at the house. I'm calling to talk to Tray, 0:02:05.040 --> 0:02:07.560 but I had to go through you to get to him. Okay, 0:02:09.320 --> 0:02:13.160 So you basically let me know I don't really appreciate 0:02:13.240 --> 0:02:17.520 your tone, and I was like, I don't ain't nomatic 0:02:17.600 --> 0:02:23.960 and you hung up on me. I called back and 0:02:24.000 --> 0:02:28.359 I happened to say, quote, bitch, you living in the 0:02:28.440 --> 0:02:32.080 house I picked out. You said, it's my house. Now, 0:02:33.040 --> 0:02:39.280 that's some I want you to know. Will Smith let 0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:43.960 me have it. What was his take? His take was, 0:02:44.960 --> 0:02:52.520 that is trays mother, and that's just not your place. Yeah, 0:02:53.320 --> 0:02:56.760 that's a movie. That's like a movie scene. It took years. 0:02:57.080 --> 0:03:00.160 I mean, it's been twenty some years for us to 0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:03.560 get to a place where we can see each other. 0:03:03.600 --> 0:03:07.440 There's no buttons, we see each other. It's all system. 0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:10.240 I actually thought about that too, because I was like, 0:03:10.320 --> 0:03:13.920 I wonder how long it actually took me too to 0:03:14.040 --> 0:03:18.400 get to a place of acceptance and openness. However long 0:03:18.440 --> 0:03:21.160 it was, I feel like it was probably too long, 0:03:22.160 --> 0:03:24.519 you know. I wish that it had come sooner. Yeah, 0:03:24.600 --> 0:03:27.480 you come from that generation. It's like once you get divorced, 0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:31.239 that's it. I think you're you pik Holidays, big week, 0:03:32.000 --> 0:03:34.160 and that's it. You go over there and now I'll 0:03:34.160 --> 0:03:38.600 go back to us. Yeah, we've only gotten closer, you know. Yeah, 0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:41.760 it's just so great. I love me so much. And 0:03:41.800 --> 0:03:45.760 she taught me how to make right yeah, because she 0:03:45.880 --> 0:03:49.520 cooks so well. She does. And we'll be spending Christmas 0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:53.160 together this year, you know. But it's difficult to put 0:03:53.200 --> 0:03:57.520 the children first, put all of that astult mess aside, 0:03:57.680 --> 0:04:01.560 and make the children your priority. And I've not had 0:04:01.640 --> 0:04:07.520 to deal with it because I purposely purposely dated men 0:04:07.520 --> 0:04:09.600 that did not have children. Right. Well, you knew what 0:04:09.640 --> 0:04:14.760 you could have, So that's actually smart. I actually more 0:04:14.840 --> 0:04:17.560 because I'm always like, you knew the guy had or 0:04:17.600 --> 0:04:21.400 the woman had exactly, So what did you expect that 0:04:21.400 --> 0:04:23.560 that person was just going to leave their family behind? 0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:26.479 So anybody that would do that, they're gonna they could 0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:29.120 do that to you. Totally. I didn't want to have 0:04:29.200 --> 0:04:31.520 to deal with a whole lot of baby mama drama 0:04:31.640 --> 0:04:33.440 and all of that. I just didn't want it. I 0:04:33.800 --> 0:04:37.960 just didn't want it. The most difficult part was week 0:04:38.000 --> 0:04:41.360 He told me he was introducing you to Tray and 0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:43.920 I said, no, I don't think that's a good idea. 0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:48.120 And he's like, well, it's happening, you know. So Trey 0:04:48.240 --> 0:04:51.200 comes home. I said, how did you like miss Jada? 0:04:52.240 --> 0:04:55.840 He said, I really liked her. Mommy, oh my god, 0:05:02.640 --> 0:05:08.200 thank you for loving my baby. Yeah, that makes me 0:05:08.279 --> 0:05:15.720 want to cry. We're all cried. Yeah, how about not cry? 0:05:16.120 --> 0:05:18.839 It's not easy. The one thing that I will say 0:05:19.240 --> 0:05:23.320 is that the next generation, the grand babies, will get 0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:28.200 a better version. Because you guys got the working out version. 0:05:28.920 --> 0:05:32.719 We didn't have really any examples. We had to figure 0:05:32.720 --> 0:05:35.159 out and figure out the tools. What it really takes 0:05:35.240 --> 0:05:40.200 is you having the desire to make it happen. The 0:05:40.320 --> 0:05:44.799 three of us really wanted it. Yes, all right, So 0:05:45.200 --> 0:05:48.200 next question, my best friend is pushing her boyfriend for 0:05:48.240 --> 0:05:50.920 a really huge Valenhein's date wedding, and I'm just afraid 0:05:50.960 --> 0:05:53.360 that they don't know each other very well. Jada, I 0:05:53.360 --> 0:05:55.520 know you and will have been married for twenty years. 0:05:55.880 --> 0:05:59.480 Any advice America is probably gonna hate me for saying this, 0:06:00.320 --> 0:06:03.920 but I feel like weddings, the way that weddings are 0:06:03.960 --> 0:06:07.159 set up right now, the way that that celebration is 0:06:07.160 --> 0:06:11.880 set up, is such the wrong start to a marriage. 0:06:12.760 --> 0:06:15.880 The wedding celebration now is something you should have after 0:06:15.960 --> 0:06:18.480 you've gone through forty Do you get to like twenty 0:06:18.600 --> 0:06:25.440 years and even twenty years okay? Or or if not that, 0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:28.120 here's what I think you should be doing. You, you 0:06:28.200 --> 0:06:31.239 and your partner, if you survive an amazing race. Yeah, 0:06:31.800 --> 0:06:35.599 you guys, have three or four days in the jungle 0:06:37.560 --> 0:06:41.240 the trenches together, you make it to that finished line, 0:06:41.480 --> 0:06:44.520 and you still want to get married. Now we can 0:06:44.600 --> 0:06:48.920 have a ceremony. Now we can have a ceremony, I 0:06:49.960 --> 0:06:52.920 because that is a let me tell you, that sets 0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:57.160 up a fantasy that you can that marriage to maintain. 0:06:57.360 --> 0:07:01.000 I get that that that's a you ain't gonna maintain 0:07:01.040 --> 0:07:05.360 it well, but hopefully you've been challenges before you get 0:07:05.400 --> 0:07:10.480 to that day. Not enough that some people want to 0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:14.240 get married just to have that day. Yeah, And for me, 0:07:14.880 --> 0:07:16.960 that was one of the reasons why I didn't want 0:07:16.960 --> 0:07:19.160 a wedding day. I knew from the gate when I 0:07:19.200 --> 0:07:21.400 was getting into it, I knew that wasn't gonna be 0:07:21.440 --> 0:07:24.080 a cake in the walk in the park. I was 0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:28.200 gonna say cake in the park, park walking apart. I'm 0:07:28.200 --> 0:07:32.720 gonna be easy, all right. Just because it's not easy 0:07:33.040 --> 0:07:38.160 doesn't mean that it's not a journey to be worthy journey. 0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:41.000 It's a worthy journey. It takes a lot of work, though, 0:07:41.320 --> 0:07:44.240 because it's a lot of ego deaths, it's a lot 0:07:44.360 --> 0:07:50.360 of unwinding. How you have been conditioned to relate to 0:07:51.320 --> 0:07:55.320 relating the fight with our relationship partners more than we 0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:59.440 fight with anyone else. But here's the thing, and intimate reationships, 0:07:59.440 --> 0:08:03.600 it does because in intimate relationships you come across your 0:08:04.480 --> 0:08:08.480 deepest traumas. I mean, they hit right on the button. 0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:11.280 So there's so much learning to be had there. And 0:08:11.320 --> 0:08:14.400 that and that's really how I look at my relationship 0:08:14.480 --> 0:08:17.520 with your father. All I'm saying is that starting your 0:08:17.600 --> 0:08:22.320 journey that way is a is A is a huge center. Okay, 0:08:22.520 --> 0:08:25.640 next question, Willow, I have a question. Do you ever 0:08:25.680 --> 0:08:28.040 feel like you need to defend your parents when there 0:08:28.080 --> 0:08:31.080 are rumors and the press about them? Yeah? I felt 0:08:31.080 --> 0:08:34.360 like that all the time, when they would say things like, oh, 0:08:34.440 --> 0:08:37.960 they're letting their kids do this, and I would be like, well, 0:08:38.520 --> 0:08:42.160 would you rather them allow their kids to express themselves 0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:44.880 and find themselves or just be controlling? And then we 0:08:44.960 --> 0:08:47.320 just end up doing drugs and being on TMC and 0:08:47.360 --> 0:08:51.640 being sad, And when people thought that you guys were 0:08:51.640 --> 0:08:58.080 getting just so much. I don't understand how people can 0:08:58.320 --> 0:09:01.760 write this stuff. It's just not true. And I can 0:09:01.880 --> 0:09:07.360 just be remember being very very upset and telling you 0:09:07.400 --> 0:09:10.480 that you should sue them, you need to sue them, 0:09:11.080 --> 0:09:13.840 it's not true, and just carrying it on and you 0:09:13.880 --> 0:09:16.480 were like, my, it's just not worth it. Oh when 0:09:16.600 --> 0:09:21.920 someone called ch'all protective services and I remember, oh my god, 0:09:22.240 --> 0:09:26.960 that was I was like, wow, when did that come out? 0:09:27.000 --> 0:09:30.320 That story about child protective I can't even think, Willow, 0:09:30.600 --> 0:09:32.960 was what were you were you fourteen, I think so. 0:09:33.520 --> 0:09:35.680 I think it's started with that home bisless thing. We 0:09:35.760 --> 0:09:39.200 took a picture and Moises had his shirt off. The 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:42.600 boys basically lived with us, so they like her brother 0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:48.040 Columbians like these boys are always in this. There was 0:09:48.360 --> 0:09:53.200 no sexual intonation in that picture whatsoever. But I find 0:09:53.280 --> 0:09:58.640 that other celebrities, females who aren't black, who are younger 0:09:59.360 --> 0:10:02.679 and who do post things that are way more sexual 0:10:02.679 --> 0:10:06.479 than that, get away with it. They don't get any backlash. 0:10:06.720 --> 0:10:09.920 And that was what was That's that to me? Yeah, 0:10:10.080 --> 0:10:12.200 that's not a lot. That was the first time I've 0:10:12.240 --> 0:10:17.520 ever got furious because of you. But not only that, 0:10:17.760 --> 0:10:20.200 it just was one of those blatant moments that you 0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:29.200 just blatantly difference. There's something about black skin and anything sexual, 0:10:29.559 --> 0:10:32.760 anything considered you know what I mean, and the fact 0:10:32.840 --> 0:10:37.079 that what's considered sexual if you have black skin inappropriate 0:10:37.240 --> 0:10:40.600 exactly white. I was looking at the lady and the 0:10:40.640 --> 0:10:43.839 whole time I was thinking, you could be helping so 0:10:43.880 --> 0:10:47.680 many kids right now, and you're wasting your time with 0:10:48.160 --> 0:10:50.840 a child who has everything that they need. The woman 0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:53.040 that was on our case, she was a nice lady, 0:10:53.080 --> 0:10:59.200 she's good, She actually know my kids were like whatever, 0:10:59.600 --> 0:11:02.120 that's how they treated it, and Jane and both and 0:11:02.160 --> 0:11:04.400 there was nothing will and I could do nothing. We 0:11:04.440 --> 0:11:07.160 were just like, please chill out. And they were like, no, 0:11:07.640 --> 0:11:11.480 this is stupid and it's ridiculous. It was like their 0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:15.679 personal protest. The way they were conducting these interviews was 0:11:15.800 --> 0:11:19.120 literally like what are you doing here? Yeah? We were gangster, 0:11:20.280 --> 0:11:25.840 don't these kids. I was like, listen, I need for y'all, 0:11:25.400 --> 0:11:28.719 need your best your best behavior when I tell you, 0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:31.240 it was the complete opposite. And I was sitting there 0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:36.520 like I cannot believe this. I'd be like these kids 0:11:36.640 --> 0:11:40.319 right here, that's when you get the backlash of giving 0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:44.520 your kids their individuality. I was just like, please, y'all chill. 0:11:45.120 --> 0:11:48.760 I was eating in the interview o'clock in the afternoon 0:11:48.760 --> 0:11:51.520 because I knew. Because I knew, went a bowl of cereal. 0:11:51.640 --> 0:11:55.400 And the woman was like because I She was like, no, 0:11:55.480 --> 0:12:00.559 I just got up. This is like my breakfast, playing games. Okay, 0:12:00.600 --> 0:12:03.840 playing games. I was like, they already think we're starving you. 0:12:03.840 --> 0:12:08.199 You're gonna walk in with a bowl of cereals your 0:12:08.280 --> 0:12:11.760 first meal. I was like, Lord Jesus would taking little 0:12:11.920 --> 0:12:14.920 I walked in with with a bowl of cereals, specifically 0:12:14.920 --> 0:12:18.080 because I knew that they said you were starving me, 0:12:18.520 --> 0:12:21.160 and so I was like, you know what, I'm gonna 0:12:21.200 --> 0:12:23.800 walk in with food and I'm gonna eat the entire time. 0:12:23.880 --> 0:12:26.800 I'm gonna eat throughout the entire interview. But I said, 0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:32.200 I said, these kids get it honestly. They get it honestly, 0:12:32.200 --> 0:12:35.000 because that is definitely something Will and I would have 0:12:35.080 --> 0:12:37.559 done back at the day if that was the moment 0:12:38.640 --> 0:12:43.480 that I feel like we really locked up together as 0:12:43.840 --> 0:12:46.719 a family. It was like a crisis, yeah, because I 0:12:46.840 --> 0:12:49.080 was like, oh, we're getting a tax. So the kids 0:12:49.120 --> 0:12:53.080 got to see for the first time why Will and 0:12:53.120 --> 0:12:56.560 I have been so protective. Be careful who you talk to, 0:12:56.559 --> 0:12:59.880 be careful who you hang with, watch yourself because people 0:13:00.280 --> 0:13:02.840 say things and people, you know, people try to hurt you. 0:13:03.360 --> 0:13:07.480 And they saw they were like oh oh, and so 0:13:07.559 --> 0:13:13.120 then I got to see the soldiers in them. So 0:13:13.640 --> 0:13:18.000 Carly and San Francisco, have you ever had anyone at 0:13:18.040 --> 0:13:20.880 the Red Table that you click with so much that 0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:26.720 they became your new friends? After yes, yes, I'd have 0:13:26.880 --> 0:13:31.400 to say Talula and we started talking after the show 0:13:31.960 --> 0:13:34.000 and I got our numbers. We ended up going to 0:13:34.000 --> 0:13:38.079 get some dinner rumor scouting to me came to your birthday. 0:13:38.200 --> 0:13:41.559 It was really good and we had some awesome conversations 0:13:41.679 --> 0:13:44.760 and just to connect with them outside of the table. 0:13:45.559 --> 0:13:48.560 When the show ended with Demi and her beautiful daughters, 0:13:48.559 --> 0:13:51.520 we kept talking and here's a little more of the 0:13:51.600 --> 0:13:54.480 conversation that you haven't seen, where t Lula opens up 0:13:54.600 --> 0:13:56.800 about being the daughter of Bruce and did me more. 0:13:57.679 --> 0:13:59.160 I don't know if you can relate to this, but 0:13:59.240 --> 0:14:02.319 growing up the way that we did, um, I felt 0:14:02.440 --> 0:14:05.360 that we weren't allowed to have pain and problems because 0:14:05.360 --> 0:14:08.080 we had so much and I've struggled with it my 0:14:08.280 --> 0:14:12.800 entire life. Um, and so I also didn't or other 0:14:12.840 --> 0:14:15.480 people don't believe that, don't believe. You're like, oh, this 0:14:15.559 --> 0:14:18.240 is and then they're like, ha, you have it all. 0:14:18.280 --> 0:14:22.600 There's no prom and you're like, okay, you don't. Being 0:14:22.640 --> 0:14:27.760 criticized at a much higher level to and you can't 0:14:27.760 --> 0:14:30.440 really share about it because it's like I know that 0:14:30.480 --> 0:14:32.080 she would have killed me. Yeah, Like who do you 0:14:32.120 --> 0:14:34.400 share this with? The first thing they're gonna go to is, oh, 0:14:34.480 --> 0:14:37.560 your mom is who You'll never know what we feel like, 0:14:37.680 --> 0:14:39.600 that's right, you'll never know what it's like to be 0:14:39.680 --> 0:14:42.760 born into a world where people know about you and 0:14:42.840 --> 0:14:45.640 comment about you, and that that is pain in it. 0:14:46.960 --> 0:14:48.880 We set at the table for a long time. That 0:14:48.960 --> 0:14:51.120 was one of my favorites. I really got a joy 0:14:51.240 --> 0:14:55.080 out of seeing you Rumor and Tulula have that camaraderie 0:14:55.120 --> 0:14:58.640 and have somebody who kind of understands why. That was 0:14:58.920 --> 0:15:01.960 the first time, yeah, that I had ever talked to 0:15:02.520 --> 0:15:06.000 I mean, besides my brother's like anyone who has grown 0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:09.480 up like me in a deep like like really talking 0:15:09.520 --> 0:15:12.920 about like what's the problems here exactly? And the first 0:15:12.960 --> 0:15:16.680 time and then that's a safe space for for all 0:15:16.680 --> 0:15:19.520 of you expressed that to each other, So that that 0:15:19.640 --> 0:15:22.160 made meself feel that felt good right to be able 0:15:22.240 --> 0:15:25.400 to just talk and feel a level of comfort. There's 0:15:25.440 --> 0:15:28.320 been so many times where I've had the fear of like, oh, 0:15:28.360 --> 0:15:31.840 like if I open up in this area, what if 0:15:31.880 --> 0:15:34.840 this gets out into the media, or what if what 0:15:34.920 --> 0:15:37.320 if I think this person is like, oh, really feeling me, 0:15:37.520 --> 0:15:39.880 but then they're recording me on their phone and that's 0:15:40.320 --> 0:15:43.880 it's real and it's hard because and even for me 0:15:44.120 --> 0:15:47.960 as an adult, you know, you you want to believe 0:15:48.040 --> 0:15:52.520 that people want to be your friend because they like you. 0:15:53.200 --> 0:15:55.360 I want people to want to be my friend because 0:15:55.400 --> 0:15:57.640 I'm Adrian, right. I don't want them to want to 0:15:57.680 --> 0:15:59.960 be my friend, oh because I'm Jada's mom and I'm 0:16:00.000 --> 0:16:01.720 one red Table And I know there's some of that 0:16:01.960 --> 0:16:04.920 I and I understand that too. I think finding sincere 0:16:05.000 --> 0:16:08.920 friends it's hard for everybody, you know, I don't think 0:16:08.920 --> 0:16:12.960 that that's just specific to you. Need. It's just so 0:16:13.040 --> 0:16:18.040 hard for people to find genuine friendship. Yeah, it's really difficult, 0:16:18.120 --> 0:16:21.760 no matter who you are, no matter who you are. Yeah, okay, 0:16:21.840 --> 0:16:25.440 next question, So Sam from Detroit, I have a question 0:16:25.480 --> 0:16:28.680 for Willow. When was it that you realized that your 0:16:28.800 --> 0:16:34.560 dad was the Fresh Prince of bel Air. That's a 0:16:34.680 --> 0:16:38.720 good question. Is actually like it was a gradual, like oh, 0:16:38.840 --> 0:16:41.720 when we go out, like people are looking at us 0:16:41.720 --> 0:16:44.800 and like people like are really excited. And when was 0:16:44.840 --> 0:16:47.120 the first time you watched Fresh Prince? How old were you? 0:16:47.120 --> 0:16:50.240 Because I remember you going, oh, my goodness, that shows 0:16:50.280 --> 0:16:55.200 so funny, like last year I watched the whole thing, 0:16:55.520 --> 0:17:00.320 right and the whole series. Yeah, and I didn't realized 0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:01.680 because at first I was like, oh, I knew it 0:17:01.720 --> 0:17:04.160 was funny. And I knew people thought it was amazing, 0:17:04.720 --> 0:17:08.760 but like when I watched it, the writing, it was 0:17:08.960 --> 0:17:12.320 so beautiful and so amazing, and because it was funny, 0:17:12.359 --> 0:17:14.720 there was a lot of commentary. Yeah, but that's why 0:17:14.840 --> 0:17:17.639 I remember you going, oh my goodness, mom, the fresh 0:17:17.680 --> 0:17:21.320 princess genius, and I'm like, oh, you're just figuring that out, 0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:25.280 just figuring that Yeah, so that was last year, so 0:17:25.320 --> 0:17:30.200 you had to be eighteens. So next question during the 0:17:30.280 --> 0:17:32.960 Jordan Woods episode, Jordan's said she would take a lie 0:17:32.960 --> 0:17:35.240 detector test my friends, and I really want to know 0:17:35.240 --> 0:17:42.280 if she did. Right, asked me straight up, Okay, did 0:17:42.400 --> 0:17:49.000 you sleep with Tristan? Never? Never thought, never consideration never happened. 0:17:49.240 --> 0:17:52.840 It never would I And that's why I'm willing to 0:17:53.000 --> 0:17:56.879 be put up to the tests attached me to a 0:17:56.920 --> 0:18:00.359 lie detective, whatever it is. I need people to know 0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:04.320 the truth, and more importantly, I need the people involved 0:18:04.359 --> 0:18:07.840 to know the truth. Got it? Mm hm. That was 0:18:07.880 --> 0:18:10.600 a deep show. It was It was a deep show. 0:18:11.080 --> 0:18:14.000 I'm super proud of her. I learned a lot about her. 0:18:14.200 --> 0:18:18.680 She and I have gotten much closer than I actually 0:18:18.720 --> 0:18:22.120 had some healing with her mother and that was great too. Yeah, 0:18:22.800 --> 0:18:28.520 can we Abby is Abbey? Is that what's happening? That 0:18:28.680 --> 0:18:31.879 is the problem with filming in your house? That's funny 0:18:31.920 --> 0:18:36.159 that Abby started gradu We could we could have this 0:18:36.240 --> 0:18:39.119 conversation because she wasn't here for the show. Yeah, the 0:18:39.200 --> 0:18:43.000 answer is yes, Jordans did take a lot of detective 0:18:43.040 --> 0:18:46.960 tests and it was arranged. It was Jordan's request. What 0:18:47.000 --> 0:18:49.040 was her request even be here? Yeah, it was her 0:18:49.080 --> 0:18:51.320 request to be here, and it was her request to 0:18:51.359 --> 0:18:56.880 take the live detective test, and we had forensic polygraphs 0:18:57.320 --> 0:19:00.440 with more than twenty five years of experience in criminal 0:19:00.520 --> 0:19:05.840 and civil investigations. Well you know, well now at the time, 0:19:05.960 --> 0:19:08.800 it really it wasn't for this show. It was for 0:19:08.840 --> 0:19:12.200 her and for people that she loves. Okay, this is 0:19:12.200 --> 0:19:13.679 a new thing for me and you, as far as 0:19:13.720 --> 0:19:16.040 being on the camera, usually do it pretty secretive, so 0:19:16.359 --> 0:19:20.280 I don't even know your last name, to be honest, Woods, okay, Woods, Okay, 0:19:20.520 --> 0:19:22.920 how did you end up coming here to do the 0:19:22.960 --> 0:19:25.480 polygraph today? Like? What are you hoping to get out 0:19:25.480 --> 0:19:28.160 of it? I just want everyone to know that I'm 0:19:28.160 --> 0:19:31.320 telling the truth, and that's the most important part of 0:19:31.320 --> 0:19:33.000 the story to me, is the truth. All we do 0:19:33.040 --> 0:19:35.439 in the polygraph is we record the hardship on you 0:19:35.640 --> 0:19:38.280 when you purposely lie. It's very hard on the body 0:19:38.320 --> 0:19:40.760 when you lie. Telling the truth is very easy. And 0:19:40.800 --> 0:19:42.919 we do do a lot of tests where I feel 0:19:42.920 --> 0:19:45.119 that the other person should be tested as well. This 0:19:45.200 --> 0:19:47.000 is an important test for you, and it's something that 0:19:47.040 --> 0:19:50.600 you want, obviously, um, you know, to come in and do, 0:19:50.720 --> 0:19:53.080 and you're volunteering to do it, and you're putting yourself 0:19:53.119 --> 0:19:56.359 in front of a lot of people right to do 0:19:56.400 --> 0:19:58.800 the test, and so that takes a lot of courage 0:19:58.800 --> 0:20:01.000 to come in and do it. So let me, Um, 0:20:01.000 --> 0:20:02.560 what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna have you turn 0:20:02.640 --> 0:20:05.760 the chair this way. Yeah. So the path that you're 0:20:05.800 --> 0:20:09.160 sitting on is called a motion sensor because there are 0:20:09.240 --> 0:20:12.359 a certain part of the population that comes in and 0:20:12.359 --> 0:20:14.840 tries to cheat on the test. Part of the cheating 0:20:14.880 --> 0:20:17.200 what they do is they'll move around, do secret movements. 0:20:17.440 --> 0:20:19.639 And so now we have to have someone sit on 0:20:19.680 --> 0:20:22.560 the motion pad. So if you even move at all, 0:20:22.680 --> 0:20:24.359 it will show up on the screen. And I'm just 0:20:24.400 --> 0:20:27.600 gonna wrap this around your waist first, okay, So lean 0:20:27.680 --> 0:20:30.320 forward just a tiny bit and this will go right here, 0:20:30.400 --> 0:20:35.840 just like that. Perfect, and this just takes regular blood pressure. 0:20:36.080 --> 0:20:38.320 We do not pump it up as much as they 0:20:38.359 --> 0:20:42.359 do in the hospital. Please remain as still as you 0:20:42.400 --> 0:20:45.040 can and listen carefully to the questions that I'm going 0:20:45.080 --> 0:20:48.680 to ask you. So are you ready to do your polygraph? Yes? 0:20:50.359 --> 0:20:57.000 Are you now in the state of California? Yes? Are 0:20:57.000 --> 0:21:04.520 you currently sitting down? Yes? Did you have sexual intercourse 0:21:04.600 --> 0:21:10.280 with Tristan Thompson? No? Alright, this concludes the test. Please 0:21:10.280 --> 0:21:13.119 hold stone. So I released the pressure from your own cuff. 0:21:14.680 --> 0:21:24.960 All right, Well, you are all done with everything. Jordan 0:21:25.040 --> 0:21:27.639 thought you did a fantastic job and you definitely passed. 0:21:27.640 --> 0:21:31.119 And I believe you're being truthful on the test. And 0:21:31.200 --> 0:21:33.480 she passed with flying colors. I'm real proud that she 0:21:33.560 --> 0:21:39.240 did that. And the thing that is so important to me, 0:21:39.760 --> 0:21:41.800 you know, and I don't want to blame it on 0:21:41.920 --> 0:21:44.560 social media or anything like that, but I do want 0:21:44.600 --> 0:21:48.520 to say that people pass judgment when they don't have 0:21:48.640 --> 0:21:51.960 all the information, and people get a little bit of 0:21:52.000 --> 0:21:54.879 that and you know, and and just run with it. 0:21:55.600 --> 0:22:01.359 And what I'm so happy about or proud of Jordan's 0:22:01.440 --> 0:22:04.720 is that she was able to take something that could 0:22:04.720 --> 0:22:11.280 have been disastrous, you know, because this could have destroyed 0:22:11.800 --> 0:22:16.359 her reputation and her career, you know, and she didn't 0:22:16.359 --> 0:22:20.560 allow that to happen. She came in and she she 0:22:20.720 --> 0:22:24.000 told the story, because what happens is you get her story, 0:22:24.480 --> 0:22:28.000 their story, and then there's the truth. So what we 0:22:28.119 --> 0:22:30.800 hope is that at some point in time, the truth, 0:22:30.880 --> 0:22:35.160 all the whole truth, actually comes out for real, because 0:22:35.200 --> 0:22:42.840 there were a lot of untruths that were put out there, 0:22:44.040 --> 0:22:46.400 and one of them was about the fact that there 0:22:46.520 --> 0:22:50.200 wasn't an apology from Jordan's right right right right right 0:22:50.240 --> 0:22:54.119 from the text messages that I saw that that is 0:22:54.160 --> 0:23:01.679 not necessarily the case, got it, So don't be ending 0:23:01.880 --> 0:23:07.119 this out of the show, because that's important, right, I 0:23:07.160 --> 0:23:09.760 hear you, yam okay, don't make me have to come 0:23:09.760 --> 0:23:12.640 to the editing. No, I hear you, you know, And 0:23:12.880 --> 0:23:15.080 you know, I'm just saying, no, I get it. I 0:23:15.119 --> 0:23:17.480 get it. That's why we're going to talk about it, 0:23:17.600 --> 0:23:21.239 you know. And let's be honest. It taught me a 0:23:21.240 --> 0:23:25.760 lot just watching the whole thing and just understanding there's 0:23:25.800 --> 0:23:29.240 always more. It's always there's always more to the story. 0:23:29.359 --> 0:23:32.760 So you gotta be careful how you judge no matter 0:23:32.840 --> 0:23:35.800 what exactly, no matter what you hear, no matter what's 0:23:35.840 --> 0:23:38.760 out there, there's always more. Why are you pointing the 0:23:39.440 --> 0:23:41.879 pointing the thing? And it's three fingers pointing back at you. 0:23:43.359 --> 0:23:49.960 And because somebody get Willow, she's probably put Abby upstairs? Willow. 0:23:52.480 --> 0:23:55.480 It's Abby, Okay, she was she let me tell you. 0:23:55.520 --> 0:24:00.560 She's just here's my voice and it's like she wants 0:24:00.560 --> 0:24:05.000 to be where you are. Yeah, well this was good.
