90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way episode 3 aired on TLC this Monday, July 24, at 8 pm ET. The episode showcased Mary finally meeting Brandan after texting and video calling him 24 hours a day. Mary's grandparents had already warned her against getting physically intimate with Brandan and also asked her to tell Brandan that he will have to ask for their permission to hug or kiss her.
Initially, Mary agreed to this, but she was scared about Brandan's reaction and so decided not to tell him right away. She was also able to convince her brother to take her side and kissed Brandan at the airport after hugging him.
Even in the car, they could not keep their hands off each other and Mary's brother had to tell him that this was against their culture, as it brings shame to the ancestors. Brandan was shocked by this as Mary had never said anything about this and revealed that he would have taken care of his behavior if he knew it.
Mary disregarded her grandparents' rules to make their first meeting special, but got nervous when they asked Brandan what they did after meeting at the airport. She refused to translate or say anything to them.
90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way fans slammed Mary for not telling Brandan about the rules.

Mary revealed that her grandparents, who raised her after her parents left her, did not talk to her brother for a year when they found out that he had kids outside of marriage. They were concerned about their growing age and hoped that Brandan would respect them. But Mary herself did not adhere to the rules and kept on kissing Brandan in front of her brother.
However, she did confess that things will turn sour if her grandparents feel disrespected by Brandan.
90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way fans criticized Mary for not making Brandan aware of the rules in her house and disregarding what her grandparents told her.
About Mary and Brandan's relationship
Mary was cheated on by her ex-boyfriend several times so she became very suspicious of Brandan when they started dating. She also revealed that she had abandonment issues and so was always on video call with him. He also sent her every penny of his savings, which helped her build their dream home.
Mary also slammed him for sitting next to a woman on their flight, making him shift the seat and also asking him not to visit his mother and sister.
