Troubling 911 audio and a follow-up complaint are shedding light on a chaotic and emotional situation involving "Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" star Taylor Frankie Paul and her on-again, off-again partner Dakota Mortensen.

In 911 audio obtained by TMZ, you can hear a tense exchange unfolding in real time during a call placed on February 22 of this year ... with a child wailing and crying in the background.

At one point, Dakota is heard saying, “I told you,” while Taylor can be heard speaking in the background ... though much of what she says is unclear, aside from a phrase ending in “to me" as the dispatcher is actively trying to assess the situation while Taylor repeatedly pleads -- saying “please” several times.

Moments later, Dakota gets on the line and explains he’s calling because his son “isn’t doing good” and he wants advice on what to do. He tells the dispatcher the child had thrown up but appears to be okay now, adding that they plan to take him in themselves. When the dispatcher offers to send help, Dakota declines and the call ends shortly afterward.
