Life After Lockup, Love After Lockup's spin-off segment, documents the inmates' lives in a wider sense. Episode 41 was the first episode of the segment in season 5, released on October 4. Titled Welcome Home?, it saw several couples struggling with various issues during their initial days out.

Kerok and Brittany were among the couples who did everything to make ends meet. They were both inmates and had planned to move from Virginia to Texas, in search of a better life. The two quit their jobs and packed their things, until in episode 41, they found out they couldn't move states without getting permission.

Disheartened, Kerok and Brittany tried speaking with the officials to find a way out, but the only way was to get special permission beforehand. Fans of Love After Lockup flocked to X to comment on the state denying Kerok to move in. Most of them believed this should've been the first step the couple should've taken in the process of changing states.

"Kerok & Brittany packing up to move & his parole hasn’t even been approved for the transfer is crazy…. Are ya’ll OK?!!" said one fan.
"Kerok why would you make all these arrangements based on an assumption??? What’s not clicking????" said another.
"Kerok, done packed up the whole family AND quit the job? This is crazy. Who does this without verifying they're approved," a user added.
"Why Kerok and Britney dumb *sses try to move out of state knowing they didn't have approval to do so?" another fan said.

Most fans of Love After Lockup expressed disappointment in Kerok and Brittany's decision to move out of the state without checking if they needed a permit. Some were surprised to see how they found out about the permit on their way to Texas.

"These fools Kerok and Brittany in the car... on the way to Texas.... when they find out she has no approval to move TO TEXAS?" an X user wrote.
"Note to self: DO NOT HIRE KEROK AS YOUR MOVER!" another X user wrote.
"I was feeling bad for Kerok, but you made all these plans and didn't have approval. That's on you, boo!" a comment read.
"So Kerok has no common sense. He’s hollering at the PO like he has no damn sense. Quit his job, packing up and says there’s no reason they should get denied. That’s *ss backwards. You get permission first," another fan wrote.

What happened with Kerok and Brittany on episode 41 of Love After Lockup season 5?

In episode 41 of Love After Lockup season 5, Kerok was seen standing in Richmond, Virginia, talking to an official on the phone, who told him it was up to the state to approve or deny his move. They told Kerok that as of the time of the phone call, the pair weren't allowed to travel or move to the state of Texas.

Kerok then argued that he packed up his family, quit his job, and was ready to move his life to a different state. The officer explained to him that he shouldn't have taken all these steps before obtaining the approval. Kerok argued that he did all the preparations because he didn't think there was any reason for a denial.

Brittany walked in when Kerok was still on the phone, asking him what happened, and he told her. The Love After Lockup pair then heard the officer saying they would get a request from the parole officer to expedite them to the state of Texas, but that could take up to 30 days. Brittany then demanded to speak to the official herself.

She told the officer that they had to be out of their house and that they didn’t have 30 days as they would be homeless. The officer offered the Love After Lockup couple a government-funded motel room till they got their permit. Further, Kerok admitted that he felt like he failed because he was the provider and the protector.
