Tension is brewing once more as 1000-lb Sisters star Tammy Slaton and sister Amanda squabble while on a family trip. Tammy went on a cuss-filled tirade as she butted heads with her siblings about her new electric wheelchair.
In the new teaser for this week's episode, Amy Slaton asks Tammy if the wheelchair helps with her mobility and freedom. However, it seems Tammy is not in the mood to talk about that.
"I guess we all know it helps y'all out," Tammy retorts as her family insists that the wheelchair is a "blessing to have." They also point out that the new technology is easy to use since they only had to plug it in at night, and it'll be ready to go the next day. All that's left to do for the 1000-lb Sisters star is to get on it and "wheel [herself] around."
1000-lb Sisters: Tammy Slaton Questions Family's Motives
Despite the encouragement from her family, Tammy Slaton still has a hard time operating the wheelchair. She even questions the motives of her family as to why they got the device in the first place.
"It was a little difficult using the electric wheelchair," the 1000-lb Sisters star explains. "I don't know what the heck's going on. I don't know what to do. I never used one. I didn't want the thing in the first place. So I'm wondering if this is for me or is it for them?"

1000-lb Sisters: Tammy and Amanda get at Each Other's Throats
During lunch, Amanda encourages Tammy Slaton to use the electric wheelchair. She even tells the 1000-lb Sisters celeb that they're "grateful" they brought the wheelchair on their family vacation. "I'm not trying to be ugly, sis, but it does take the burden off the body," Amanda stresses.
Things start to get ugly after Amy Slaton asks Tammy about her experience driving the electric wheelchair.
"I don't have any experience driving it," Tammy claps back. "I just got in the damn thing. Leave me alone *****."

The 1000-lb Sisters star insists that it is not easy to use the wheelchair, but Amanda buts in saying otherwise. This angers Tammy, even more, leading to the siblings exchanging harsh words.
After telling Amanda to "shut up," the older sister snaps at Tammy. "You are not gonna keep hollering at me like that," she fires back. "Everybody has bent over backwards. It's rude!"
But Tammy Slaton is not backing down. The 1000-lb Sisters cast member counters her sister, calling her "rude" for "running her mouth."
