'Teen Mom OG': Episode 3 Recap, Amber Plans to Fight for Custody
On this week's episode of "Teen Mom OG," Amber gets frustrated with Gary and plans to fight for custody of their daughter Leah, Maci and Ryan talk about their issues, and Tyler breaks the rules set by Carly's adoptive parents.
Amber is getting ready to hit the road to promote her new book. Before she leaves for the tour, she wants to spend some time with her daughter, so she calls Gary and asks him if it's ok for Leah to sleep over at her place. Gary thinks that it's not a good idea since he has the child on a sleeping schedule for school.
Amber goes to pick up Leah, and Gary tells her they need to be back by 7:30 p.m. They spend the few hours they have together at the park, and Amber isn't happy when Gary repeatedly calls her on her phone. This angers Amber, but she does as she's told and brings back Leah on time.

Amber leaves for her book tour, and during a stop in L.A. on Dr. Drew's radio show, she says that if Gary keeps on doing what he's doing, she's going to have to fight for custody of their daughter.
Meanwhile, Catelynn and Tyler are preparing for the arrival of their baby daughter. They fix up the nursery and go shopping for clothes and a baby carrier.
Later, Tyler starts thinking about Carly, their first born daughter whom they've put up for adoption. Tyler makes a video of all the pictures of Carly and posts it online. By doing so, he broke a rule that Carly's adoptive parents set: no pictures or videos of Carly should be posted online.
Catelynn thinks that what he's doing is not a good idea, and Tyler gets upset and says that he doesn't think that it's right for them to dictate what he can do about their daughter's pictures. Carly's parents call Tyler and they're very upset with him.
"I don't care if the world can't see her — I get to and my family gets to and that's all that matters … We signed her away, we don't have any rights to her," Catelynn tells him.
Ryan is 40 minutes late to pick up Bentley. Maci, sick of waiting, finally decides to bring Bentley to his parents' house. Ryan arrives, and finding Maci and Bentley gone, he calls her up and blames her for their problems.
Later, the two finally agree to meet and talk about their issues.
Maci tells him, "I want to include you. I want to co-parent with you, not your parents. So we're on the same page." Ryan nods and promises to be more reliable.
"Teen Mom OG" airs on Mondays at 10 p.m. on MTV.
