Sarah and Michael's relationship is tough on themselves and their two kids. They are not divorced yet and custody issues are still undecided. In the premiere episode of 'Life After Lockup', we see how the couple were struggling to have one conversation without jibes and snide remarks. This seems to disturb her because she wants Michael to be a part of her and their kids' lives. But she has someone to fall back on, someone to guide her and course correct her and that person is Malcolm.

But we saw how he reacted to Michael's presence and his visits. He was not pleased with Sarah entertaining him but she appeared adamant and continued to explain why she invites Michael into her life. "I am a big girl," she said and added how she felt for everyone, including Michael, which pushed Malcolm to ask a few important questions. He asked if he was revenge and wanted to know why she was still emotionally attached to him. In the preview we see her having a good time with Michael, booping his nose and laughing together. Clearly, they are in a good space and are enjoying a few moments together. Does this mean she is getting back to her? Unlikely, because a few seconds later she is seen worrying about him showing up at the court for their divorce proceedings.

Meanwhile, fans have dug up a photo of Malcolm, which was posted by his mother, and sort of hints that he's an actor. Sarah has never mentioned his profession, only that they have met online. And so, viewers are speculating of he was paid to play the role of Sarah's new boyfriend. "I kinda wouldn't be surprised. They have so very little in common, it seems," a fan commented on a Reddit thread, while another added: "it’s becoming so obviously fake that it isn’t as fun to watch. Bummer." "Not surprised...whoever casted Malcolm should be smacked...there is ZERO chemistry between him snd Sarah," a user pointed out.
