The teaser covered the emotional reunion of Teresa and her daughters Gia, 15, Gabriella, 11, Milania, 10, and Audriana, 6, and her husband Joe Guidice, who will be sentenced to prison for 41 months this March for the same fraud charges. Everyone in the room are seen holding "welcome home" signs which brought Teresa to tears. Joe is also heard saying, "Hi, honey. Welcome home" before giving his wife a big hug and a kiss.
