Amy Slaton asks Michael Halterman to 'get out' of the house

As Amy Slaton and Michael Halterman's marriage fell apart, the former felt "overwhelmed" and "stressed" because her husband wasn't helping her take care of the household and the children.

In the trailer, Amy tearfully admitted that every part of her life has been "chaotic" as the camera cut to a dramatic fight. Amy's sister, Amanda Halterman, was seen telling Michael to return her debit card, but he denied the request.

However, his refusal led Amanda to get into Michael's face, as Amy demanded Michael to "get out" of her house. A furious Amy confronted Michael and said, "No, he’s got two seconds to get his s**t and get out of my house."

As the fight between Amanda, Amy, and Michael escalated, there was no choice left but to dial the police.
