Like 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days' first three seasons, the fourth season follows Americans who started online romantic relationships with overseas partners as they travel overseas hoping to get engaged to someone they've never met in person and then begin the K-1 Visa immigration process.

Along the way, they'll encounter challenges that include large age gaps, language barriers, cultural issues, and questionable pasts.

Below is what was shown on the latest episode of 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days.

LISA AND USMAN

Lisa and Usman were recovering from a huge fight, and Lisa was proud of how she and her fiance were able to talk through their issues.

It then became time for Lisa to meet Usman's mother, but first, she stopped to buy a goat as a sign of respect for Usman's mother. Lisa hoped gifting a goat would help her in receiving a blessing from Usman's mother, who was apparently going to struggle accepting her son getting married to a Christian white woman from the United States.

Usman said his mother was going to use the goat for a while but then kill it for its meat.

Usman bought Lisa traditional Nigerian attire called Hausa to wear for her meeting with his mother. Usman acknowledged the deck was stacked against him since Lisa is a white, older woman who's from America, but he hoped for the best and maintained optimism.

Usman's mother apparently believed Lisa was bringing her son to the United States to be a slave, so Lisa said she needed to impress Usman's mother and make her believe that Lisa truly loved her son and wanted to be with him forever.

Lisa needed Usman's mother's blessing in order to get married, so she was nervous and anxious.

Lisa then finally met Usman's mother and his elders, and they were shocked to see how old Lisa was. Usman told his mother that Lisa was a doctor in America although she's a hospice caregiver.

Usman's mother ideally wanted him to marry a local Muslim woman, but Usman assured his mother that Lisa loved him and they wanted to get married. Usman revealed his intentions to move to America, and his mother shook her head, "No."

Usman's mother excused herself from the conversation, and Usman said her walking away was one of the worst signs that she didn't approve of his relationship.

"I disagree with his choice to marry Lisa. That's why I left the gathering earlier. It scares me because Lisa is obviously much older and also that she will take him abroad," Lisa's mother told the cameras.

"I'm afraid of how they will treat him since the whites don't like the blacks over there."

At this point, Lisa and Usman couldn't get married, and Lisa wished Usman had better prepared himself for this conversation with his mother.

Lisa was very frustrated and noted, "At this point, our relationship could be over."

GEOFFREY AND VARYA

Varya was excited to show Geoffrey around her Siberia hometown, but Geoffrey could tell Varya's mother didn't want him to take Varya away and bring her to America.

Geoffrey was worried about his future with Varya, however, because he previously went to jail for dealing drugs.

"I'm afraid if I tell Varya the truth, she'll never speak to me again," Geoffrey told the cameras. "It's time. I've got to tell Varya about my past."

Varya wanted Geoffrey to get to know about her, the good and the bad, so it seemed she might be understanding of the mistakes Geoffrey had made in his past.

While showing Geoffrey around and sharing some of her memories, Geoffrey finally came clean and told Varya he had spent some time behind bars.

"I went to prison for a while," Geoffrey revealed. "For a couple of years, for selling drugs."

Varya said she couldn't believe that Geoffrey had never told her that, and she appeared shocked and distraught. Varya said he had just met her mother and they were in a deep relationship, but Geoffrey explained he was poor growing up and needed the easy money.

Varya pointed out Geoffrey had hurt many families through his actions and she had lost her own cousin to drugs. Varya couldn't believe Geoffrey had been involved with getting people hooked on drugs, but Geoffrey could do nothing other than apologize.

"I don't like thinking about the people I could have hurt. It was a poor decision," Geoffrey told his girlfriend, adding that Varya had a unique perspective on drug dealing since she had lost a family member.

Geoffrey insisted he was totally against drugs now and his children knew all about his past. His kids had visited him in prison, and Geoffrey cried about how his past affected his whole family.

"If you had told me, I would have never, ever talked to you," Varya admitted to Geoffrey.

Geoffrey asked Varya to consider the man he is now and not the man he used to be, but Varya wasn't sure what to do and asked for some space and time to think about things.

ED AND ROSE

Ed had been in the Philippines for a few days, but he and Rose had just arrived to their hometown.

Ed was worried about where he was going to sleep because there were no windows and not much space. Given there was a storm outside, Ed couldn't leave. He wasn't looking forward to sleeping on a mattress pad on the floor under a leaky roof.

And to make matters worse, Rose's father Freddie insisted he sleep with them.

Freddie didn't feel comfortable with her daughter sleeping alone with Ed, so he figured he could keep an eye on them and find out whether Ed really respected and cared for his daughter.

However, right before bed, Freddie announced he was going to leave the pair alone.

Ed was thankful for that, but the 1000-thread count sheets he had shipped Rose never arrived. Ed shared how her bed might present a problem for his skin since he suffers from atopic dermatitis.

Ed was clearly scared to fall asleep, and Rose joked about how he's a bit of a baby.

"After seeing Rose's village and how she lives, it makes me wonder: Who wouldn't want to come to America for a better life?" Ed asked the cameras.

"I already have questions about money and her sister Maria, who asked me for money. Is that what it's all about for Rose... Am I just her meal ticket and her way out?"

The next morning, Ed revealed it was one of the worst nights in his life and he hadn't slept at all. Ed was sweating, uncomfortable and wet, and he said he felt "broken" and probably wouldn't be able to spend another night with her in her family's home.

Ed suggested to Rose they get a hotel together, but Rose didn't want to leave Prince behind and she desired that her son spend more time with her boyfriend. However, Rose seemingly knew how important it was to Ed that they get to know each other better.

Freddie then suddenly showed up and revealed he wanted to shower with Ed. Rose explained it was normal for her family members to bathe together, but Ed was a little caught off-guard.

Ed and Freddie stood in separate buckets and rinsed themselves with buckets of cold water. After soaping themselves down, Rose sprayed both men with a hose.

After Ed bathed, he discovered a rat near the water bucket, and Ed was disgusted and terrified.

Later that day, Ed, Rose and Freddie took a ride to a local pig farm, and Ed tried to stir up conversation with Freddie so that Rose's father would like him, but there was definitely a language barrier.

Freddie's passion was big farming and he apparently lived on the farm with the pigs. Ed then asked Freddie if he could take a vacation with Rose for a couple days because he was so hot sleeping at her family's place. Freddie agreed to the vacation and told Ed to take care of her.

Ed said he needed alone time to determine whether Rose truly loved him and he could put a ring on her finger.

STEPHANIE AND ERIKA

Stephanie had been in Australia for three days, but things weren't going as planned. For example, she and Erika fought over the fact Erika was reluctant to delete a dating app on her phone.

Stephanie briefly considered packing her bags and going home, but she said she didn't want to throw her relationship away after a couple of arguments. Erika therefore intended to still introduce Stephanie to her friends, and the couple attempted to move forward.

Erika told her friend over the phone Stephanie had jealousy issues, and she had apparently felt "trapped and backed into a corner" during their date the night prior when Stephanie had promised to treat her like a princess.

Erika was starting to question the person Stephanie really is, especially after Stephanie asked Erika to not share their problems with her friends.

Erika said Stephanie had to learn how to trust her or else their relationship was not going to work out.

After nearly four hours of driving, Erika told Stephanie that she seemed to have some control issues, which scared Erika since she's a free-spirited person.

Stephanie shared that she probably came across as controlling because she lacked stability in her life, like when it comes to her health crisis. Stephanie promised to do her best to trust Erika going forward despite her own personal issues.

Stephanie and Erika's romance had been plagued with problems so far, so Erika decided to invite her friend Clair, an overall positive and happy person, to the outgoing to hopefully lift everyone's spirits.

Stephanie admitted she was nervous to meet some of Erika's friends because Erika had hooked up with some of them before, such as her friend Adam. Stephanie told the cameras that "didn't sit well" with her, and Stephanie was clearly getting jealous again.

Clair could tell Erika was being quieter than usual at the restaurant they went to, and Erika let Clair know she was a bit disappointed in her relationship with Stephanie, especially due to their lack of physical affection.

"What do you think is going to happen?" Clair asked.

"I have no idea," Erika replied.

Stephanie said after dating Erika for four months, being together was a lot different than she had anticipated. Erika cried, saying she wanted her girlfriend to be excited about being around her and Stephanie never wanted to hold her or kiss her.

Stephanie didn't want Erika to think she wasn't attracted to her. Stephanie hadn't been intimate with a person in over a year, so she didn't want to rush into anything.

Erika argued that everything seemed "too hard" for Stephanie so maybe she shouldn't have traveled all the way to Australia to begin with.

Erika pointed out how Stephanie claimed they had just met and needed to get to know each other better before making love and being affectionate, but at the same time, Stephanie had already asked her to move to New York.

"You're not trying to work with me. You're trying to make me feel bad about it," Stephanie said. "We're not seeing eye to eye, and I feel like you don't understand me at all."

Erika was annoyed Stephanie was making it seem like her struggles were tougher than her own, and so she stormed out and left Stephanie alone in Erika's apartment. Stephanie wasn't sure where she had gone wrong, and she cried.

DAVID AND LANA

David was desperate to find and talk to Lana, because he thought their relationship would go back to normal once they were able to talk to each other again. David was confused because Lana had said she wanted to marry him and move to America.

David traveled about 400 miles to find Lana, who had no idea David was on his way to see her.

"I put seven years into this relationship and I flew halfway across the world to see her, so I need to talk to her in person and find out what's going on," David said in a confessional.

David said he was tired of Lana's games and would stop talking to her if she asked him to stop.

Almost 300 miles into his journey, David had car trouble and caught a flat tire. David had been warned the streets to Lana's alleged hometown were dangerous, so he tried to fix the tire quickly.

David believed what he and Lana had was real, and he apparently still planned to propose to his love upon their meeting.

After five days in Ukraine, David had yet to hear a word from Lana, and he was both upset and frustrated. David had arrived in her hometown to hopefully talk to her, but David didn't want to scare Lana. He decided to walk around her city on the off-chance they may bump into each other.

David walked around and showed people in little shops Lana's picture, asking if anyone recognized her. No one could say they knew Lana, which surprised him since Lana had said she stopped at these stores once in a while.

David wandered around for a while and then returned to his hotel, where he suddenly saw a message from Lana online that read, "Do you still want a meeting for a photo and start a relationship and visa?"

"God yes!" David gushed to the cameras.

David felt beside himself with happiness, but in order to process a K-1 visa, they needed to obtain evidence they're in a relationship together. Half of David's trip was over, but he didn't care and was ready and willing to start fresh.

AVERY AND ASH

After a few days together in Australia, Ash was whisking Avery away for a romantic getaway.

Although the pair had great chemistry, Avery wasn't sure Ash was being honest about the struggle he would have moving his son Taj to the United States. Avery wanted Ash to be real with her and tell her the truth, even when it hurts.

Avery and Ash kicked off the day with an airboat ride, where they viewed crocodiles and other wildlife in The Outback. Avery was trying to figure out if Ash was going to be her lifelong partner, so she needed more answers from her man.

Avery knew Ash's decision to move to America would be very difficult for his ex-wife Sian because she'd have to say goodbye to her son. Ash shared that he was still working on that situation and was trying to get Sian to come around.

Knowing Sian is a very honest person, Ash feared what she might say to Avery. Avery realized there might be more to the situation that Ash didn't want her to know, because he seemed far from thrilled to introduce the girls to each other.

DARCEY AND TOM

Tom couldn't believe how his conversation with Darcey ended, and he admitted he was frustrated with himself because he had said some really rude things to her. Tom, for instance, pointed out Darcey's alleged weight gain and said his life would be much better without her in it.

Tom then FaceTimed with his sister Emma to share how he was feeling about the breakup.

Emma didn't think Darcey was right for Tom and that the pair weren't a good fit for each other. Tom admitted Darcey had stormed out on him and he never went after her.

Tom told the cameras he spoke out of anger and hurt with Darcey and so he owed her an apology. Tom thought it would be "a real shame" for his romance with Darcey to end so badly.

Meanwhile, Darcey told the cameras her relationship with Tom was "all gone."

Darcey decided to stay in a hotel after her split from Tom so that her daughters wouldn't have to see her so upset. Darcey said she just wanted to feel loved and thought Tom was going to be The One.

"He always promised me he was never going to hurt me the way [my ex Jesse Meester] did, but my biggest fears came true -- Tom is Jesse in disguise," Darcey told the cameras.

Darcey felt "backstabbed" and "taken advantage of." She said Tom threw things in her face, including the blonde woman he was seeing, and she felt "used" and "played for a fool."

Darcey decided to block Tom so he couldn't text, call or reach out to her. Darcey insisted she'd be fine if she never talked to Tom again and she was "so ready" to move on from this chapter in her life and find love with somebody else.
