“SMothered” TLC, produced jointly by The Post, follows several pairs of mothers and daughters who push the boundaries of what it means to be close.
Season 2 (aired on Sunday at 10 pm) has introduced Floridians Mary and Brittani, who shower together; Marcia and Alena, who licked each other in the morning; and now Laurie and Sarah.
Following are the details of Episode 3, “Date Night for Three.” Spoilers in front!
Cher and Dawn
It’s baby watch for New Yorkers Cher, 29, and Dawn, 59. The duo, who also appeared on MTV “My Super Sweet 16” in 2007, returned from Season 1. In the second season, Cher became pregnant with a girl, and Dawn wanted she does natural birth like she does. Cher’s husband, Jared, disagrees and is not happy that Dawn pushed him.
This week, Cher contracted and was tense as they waited in their apartment – setting the contraction time until they had to go to the hospital. As Dawn helped Cher through, Jared became agitated. “I like being a supporter of Cher in difficult times, but Dawn wants to be by his side,” he complained. “I just hope Dawn doesn’t do this in the hospital.”
Everyone wants to get to the hospital on time because Dawn gave birth in a car. Will they succeed? Will Dawn get in the way of Jared? We have to find out in the next episode.
Mary and Brittani
After last week’s mother-child cleansing, Floridians Mary, 55, and Brittani, 19, are ready to party and celebrate Brittani’s graduation from school to become a correction officer. Brittani is worried because she has a weight-loss operation, and many of her friends who come to the party will see her new appearance for the first time.
As Mary’s friends decorated and arranged the event, Brittani began to cry. Turns out he has a crush, Zach, tells him he’s only interested in being friends with benefits. Mary was worried she would not have a positive influence on Brittani’s men because all of her costs had deceived her. Meanwhile, there is still a problem with Frank, a husband like Mary – who is having an affair.
“They are too close,” he said on camera, referring to Mary and Brittani’s ties. “This is beyond anything I have ever seen. I hope to … change. “

Kathy and Cristina
Success! Kathy, 61, and Cristina, 35 – Chicago couple from Season 1 – have spent Season 2 campaigning to make Cristina’s husband Carlo join their plans. While Cristina and Carlo’s house was renovated, they wanted Cristina’s family to live with Kathy.
Finally, after dragging his feet, Carlo agreed. But he has a few caveats to stay with his mother-in-law: “I want to be free to do what I want,” he said. If Kathy interrupts the night of the film Carlo and Cristina experienced, he will reverse his decision and they will not stay with Kathy again.
Sunhe and Angelica
Sunhe, 52, and Angelica, 32, who shared water, also returned from Season 1, having spent the season in conflict with Angelica’s fiancé, Jason. He is not entirely divorced from his ex. Angelica accepted this, but Sunhe did not. “I have tried to show Angelica that she deserves more than what she got from Jason,” he said.
After weeks of pushing Jason to sign divorce papers to start his life with Angelica without his ex hanging on his head, Sunhe hijacks the process and draws a strange reversal: He offers to sign the papers as a witness, but then postpones the signing.
“I just don’t know what to say about my mother now, really shocked and upset,” Angelica said. Sunhe, meanwhile, is the content he controls.
Laurie and Sarah
This episode introduces a new Florida duo: Laurie, 59, and Sarah, 25. Because Laurie has various health problems, including diabetes and chronic kidney disease, their dynamics have a reversal role in which Sarah acts like she is a parent. “This is why you need surveillance all the time,” he told his mother on screen.
The couple also has a fondness for “snuggle parties” at bedtime, and Sarah uses the bonding moment to appreciate her mother’s natural smell, it seems. “I am a very anxious person, but when I smell my mother’s scent, all my anxiety or worries go away,” he said. “If I had to choose what my mother smells like, I’d describe it as clouds.”
It sounds dreamy, but let’s continue. Apart from health problems, their main conflict was Sarah’s boyfriend, Miguel. Sarah and Miguel had bought a house together but they were not engaged, and Laurie was upset because they were doing everything wrong. He also worried that his health problems would mean he would not be able to attend their wedding if Miguel waited too long. He told Sarah that he intended to encourage Miguel about the problem of applying. “I want to give you your dream marriage,” he said.
