It's the season finale, and the moments we've been waiting have finally arrived! Justine and Run bring home their new baby daughter … and Jojo cries on camera! The girls are heading out to Los Angeles, and the boys… they're chilling, skateboarding, you know. (Glad ya finally got rid of the pink helmet, Diggy.)
Of course there has to be some sort of conflict in the finale, and that comes when the family realizes the girls are heading to L.A. on the same day the bay is set to arrive. (Come on, y'all can afford the flight change fee!). Rev recognizes the bitter-sweetness of the whole thing: He does the math and figures out he's gonna be down a girl.
Jojo can't stop heckling the Vanessa and Angela, but anyone who saw the commercial for this episode (and Run, too) knows he's just frontin'. "Not gonna miss them," he repeats over and over. (Hmmm, that could be a good hook for Team Blackout.) He's practically begging the girls to leave already -- but really he's probably just afraid he can't hold the tears back much longer. When the three kids have lunch with the mother Valerie and step-pops Alfonso, Jojo finally lets the tears roll. And it ain't because he hasn't gotten his hot chocolate yet.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Justine is floating on air, enjoying the serenity of the baby's newly decorated room. Rev signs Russy, Diggy and Jojo up to decorate the house and surprise Justine when they arrive with baby in tow. And Vanessa and Angela, looking like movie stars already in their dark shades, head to the airport. But in a fairy-tale twist, they tell the limo driver to turn around and take them back so they be there to greet the baby. It's like a romantic comedy with Matthew McConaughey.
Rev and Justine arrive home with their beautiful new baby, introduced to the world as Miley Justine Simmons. And the family is happier than ever, all together, one year after the devastating loss of baby Victoria. All that was missing was a big group hug. But I'm sure that happened once the cameras stopped rolling.
