The same way you have more than one fragment anywhere else: put more
than one in a container (e.g., two FrameLayouts in a LinearLayout).

Sure. An action bar tab is a button. It dictates nothing about what
happens when a tab is clicked.

Off the cuff, I'd have a LinearLayout with three FrameLayout children.
When the first tab is chosen, load your three fragments in the three
FrameLayouts. When the second tab is chosen, load your one fragment in
one of the FrameLayouts and make the others have visibility of GONE.
