RHOA Season 14 returned to Bravo for an all-new episode on Sunday night. This week, Marlo had a conversation with her nephews. Their mother was incarcerated, and Marlo claimed that the boys had been acting differently since. Sitting down to find out what they'd been up to, Marlo asked the boys if they needed to go to therapy, but they declined the offer.

Titled Midnight in the Chateau of Good & Evil, Episode 9 of RHOA showcased Marlo sitting down with Michael and William to check up on them. She shared that ever since their last call with their mother, the boys had not been listening to her. She added that they weren't cleaning up after themselves, and she didn't know what to do with them.

She told her nephews:

"Your auntie is so worried about you at school. Do you guys feel that you need therapy right now?"

They declined the offer for therapy, but the RHOA star speculated that they would be having a lot on their minds. She asked them if they missed their mother. Marlo also told one of her nephews that he had received three referrals in the last 30 days. However, he claimed that he hadn't done anything wrong at school.

Marlo brought up a recent incident where Michael had talked back to a teacher and told her that she wasn't getting paid enough. He replied by saying:

"No, I said she didn't get paid by arguing with me."

Marlo told him that it was disrespectful. During her confessional, the RHOA star shared that there's no book on how to raise nephews. She added that the only thing she was certain she had to do was make it known that they were loved.

Marlo told her nephews:

"I just feel like I'm failing, y'all. I don't want school to call me. I shouldn't have to get upset. That's how I was raised. I don't wanna have to raise you like that. I don't want the teacher talking about you're skipping class."

Marlo shared that her mission was to shape Michael and William into strong, smart, and independent young men. Fans who watched the episode took to social media to share that the boys required therapy even if they said they didn't need it.
