'Mama June: Family Crisis' Season 4 returned on Friday night (April 17) for Episode 4, and fans are furious with Jennifer's behavior towards Alana and Pumpkin. 

This week's episode was a wild one as the family was able to get new information about Mama June and her whereabouts. But what shocked them all was the video of Geno looking drunk while Mama June tries to drag him inside. While the family continues to cope through Mama June's missing, her drug addiction, and relationship with Geno, Jennifer is making the situation worse for the family. 

Claiming she's just looking out for Alana, fans on Twitter affirm that Jennifer is just trying to take Mama June's place. Tonight when the family went out for dinner, Jennifer and Pumpkin, as usual, got into a tiff, when Alana excused herself to the washroom. When Alana excused herself, Pumpkin questioned Jennifer if it is safe to let a 13-year-old walk off on her own. 

While Jennifer just shirked it off, Alana didn't go to the washroom but instead sneaked into the night club above the restaurant. Despite Pumpkin questioning why Alana has not returned even after a long time, Jennifer didn't seem to care as much. 

Watching this behavior, fans on Twitter claim that Jennifer is not fit to be taking care of Alana, and Pumpkin is doing a better job. "I agree with Pumpkin. Alana shouldn’t be going anywhere unaccompanied at 13. Yet, Jennifer wants to take over the role as Alana’s mother. #MamaJune #FromNotToHot," a fan wrote. 

"I have to agree with Pumpkin. She is protecting sister Alana. And now Jennifer wants to take over and be the role model as Alana’s mother. #MamaJune #FromHotToNot," a fan shared, while another added, "I need Pumpkin to give Jennifer that smoke one good time to shut her Patrick from Spongebob built ass up. She want to be #mamajune so bad. Imagine being so miserable you competing with a meth head who not even worried about her children, let alone you!" 

"Pumpkin is the definition of a proud mama. Too bad June can’t be there. #MamaJune," a fan shared. Adding to that another said, "The world needs more sisters like pumpkin and doe doe period #MamaJune." 

"I would love to see pumpkin file a restraining order against Jennifer... #MamaJune #FromNottoHot," a fan wrote.
