Tamar visited Taz Singh, a spiritual advisor and a healer, to get some closure concerning Traci's passing. As Trina mentioned previously, Traci and Tamar had a lot of disagreements and when Taz connected with Traci spiritually, she revealed that Traci wanted to say "I'm sorry" to Tamar.
"She says, 'Before I passed, I did a lot of things that I wish I could do differently. I love each and every one of you. Just remember you are my baby. And what do we do when we have a baby? We protect you and that's what I did with you,'" said Taz.
This left Tamar in tears on The Braxtons as she expressed her love for Traci and wished for another chance to be a good sister to Traci. She also revealed that she had some hard conversations with Traci on her deathbed which were overdue. Tamar thanked Taz as she bid farewell to her and showed her gratitude for getting a chance at some closure.

Despite challenges, Toni performed for a full house and later celebrated with her crew and sisters. The next day, Evelyn and Towanda joined the ladies, while Tamar left to take care of her child. Trina revealed that she and Towanda would be part of Toni's show.
