- Hi, yes, I am just calling
to see if C.J. Payne

is still in--yes, chief--
yes, that's it.

Is he still in your unit?

Oh, he's been transferred
to the tenth floor?

Okay, well, ma'am, please,
can you transfer me

to the tenth floor?

You can't?

Okay, thank you.

They can't transfer me
to the tenth floor!

- The tenth floor!

- What's on the tenth floor?

- He's alive!
- ELLA: Yes!

Come on, come on,
come on, come on!

- Oh, this is bad, baby.

- Please don't tell me
he in the burn unit.

- Oh, no, no, that's
the first place I looked.

See, one of my boys
a custodian over there.

- Did you see him?

- No, I didn't see him.

But I'll see him next week when
he picks up his catering order.

- C.J. Curtis, did you see C.J.
in the burn unit?

- No, baby, he wasn't there.

- Is he in the ICU?

I mean, we need to get
over there.

- That's the second place
I looked.

One of my classmates is
a surgeon over in ER.

- And did you talk to him?

- Did I talk to her?

I know, it sounds crazy,
but women can be surgeons too.

Don't be sexist, baby.

- Curtis!

Have you seen my C.J.?

- No, baby, he wasn't there.

- Were you at the right
hospital?

- He's not at the hospital.
- Curtis!

We want to know about
the fire!

- Okay, baby, well, one of
the firefighters got hurt

pretty bad.

But I'll tell you what,

C.J.'s gonna be a hero
in all this.

- How?

- Everybody was leaving
the building,

he went back inside.
- Oh God.

- And saved a guy.
- Oh.

- And he didn't have to
go back in there.

- That's it.

This is the last firefighter
in this family.

I cannot do this
anymore.

- Ella.
- Curtis.

- Come on, baby, now you
know what this is.

We Payne men.
This is what Payne men do.

Now if you don't mind,
I gotta go to the restroom.

Are you in pain?!

Are you hungry?!

We cooked for you!

- He can hear you.
He's not deaf.

- Not right now.
Not right now. I'm good.

- Are you gonna sit down?
- Yeah.

- Okay, sit down.
- Careful.

Get the pillow.
- Sit down.

Jump in the water, son.
- Hold on, hold on. Uh!

- Whoa, whoa, with that!
Come on, that's too dramatic,

C.J., come on.

- Help me up. Help me up.
- Give me these.

- Come on, come on,
sit up a little bit.

- C.J., wait a minute, she's
gonna put the pillow

behind you, baby.

- Okay, you alright
with that?

- Yes.

- I'm praying for you,
Mr. Payne.

I think I saved your life.

- Thank--thank you, Lisa.

- You know, this could have
been a lot worse.

And I've seen it happen.

This could have gone
the wrong way.

C.J., son, you can't be taking

unnecessary risks like that.

Do you understand me?

- Yes, I hear you, Unc.

- C.J., what is all
of this?

Did you hurt your head?

- Doc--Doc says I sprained
my neck and my back,

but I'll be okay, but, uh,
I--I'm in a little shock,

and my adrenaline
is running like crazy right now.

- Okay, okay.

- The urgent care doctor said
he needs pain meds and rest,

and we're gonna make sure
he gets a lot of it.

- Yes.
- But, Unc, I know

you gotta get ready for your
barbecue tour, man, so--

- Mm-hmm, don't you worry
about that.

I'm not leaving you
like this, man.

Don't worry, I already
rescheduled anyway.

What I'm gonna do is I'm gonna
go back to the house,

and I'm gonna get you
some home remedies, okay?

- I appreciate that, Unc.

- Curtis, what home remedies
do you have for back pain?

- The same ones I have
when I watch the football game.

Alright, son?
- I'm good.

[groans]

- Lisa, could you just let me
sit right there?

Get him some water.
- Okay.

- Thank you, baby.

♪ Hey, C.J.

♪ Hey, Mama's baby

C.J., I just wanna say
I'm sorry.

I know we had a bit of a tiff
on yesterday.

But I just want you to know...

I didn't mean any harm,
baby.

I really didn't.

Things were crazy over here,
and I just--

I just took the kids
to my house.

- It's okay, Auntie. I wasn't
even thinking about that.

It's over.
I apologize too.

- Okay.

So, C.J., I know I'm not
a firefighter.

And I don't know
procedure.

But I do know common sense.

And you didn't have no business

going into that building.

- Thank you.

- You sip a little bit?

Just a little bit.

Ooh.

- Thank you, that's very
quenching.

It's just instinct, Aunt Ella.

That's all.

- ♪

- Hey, do you have everything
for your dad?

- Yeah, I think we're good.

Again, thank you so much
for everything you're doing

for us, we really appreciate it.

- Look, no worries.

When Calvin was injured,

I wished that I had
someone to help me out.

Listen, I know things are
gonna hard,

so anything that you all need,
just ask.

- You know, that's good to know.

I was thinking, I'm gonna
need a midwife

for when I go into labor.
- Huh?

- A midwife? What?

- Oh, no, no, I am...

woefully under qualified
to deliver a whole human being

in a baby blowup pool
in the living room.

I--I don't do that.
- We can do it in the kitchen.

- Okay, um, so listen...

Malik, do you have
everything?

All your dad's favorite snacks?
Favorite foods?

- Uh, yeah, I think
we're good.

- Okay, good, good.
- Hey, I really don't

know what we would do without
your help, so thank you, really.

- My pleasure.
- You know, I had a cousin

who got hit by a hearse on a way
to a funeral.

- What does--what does that
have to do with anything?

- I had to take care of her.

She had no legs.

- The hearse crushed her legs?

- No, diabetes did.

- What does that have to do
with my dad?

- I know how to take care of
the sick and shut-ins.

- Okay, I think we got it,
with Miranda and Auntie Ella,

I think we're good.

- I don't even know
why I try.

- What do you mean?

- I try to fit in. I don't think
his family likes me.

- What?

- Okay, listen, I have
been where you are.

I literally had to go
on a hunger strike so they would

let me sit at the adult table
on Thanksgiving.

- [chuckles]

Now you know that's impossible.

They love you,
especially Uncle Curtis.

- They love me just as much as
a Montague loves a Capulet.

- Okay, Shakespeare.

Go on with the beauty
and the brains. [laughs]

- Did you just use
a "Romeo and Juliet" reference

to describe a Black family
in the South

and how they feel about you?

- Wow.

You know, I expected that
from them, but not my own man.

- Wh--what do you mean?

- You think because I used to
shake my ass,

I don't read Shakespeare?

- I mean, I don't really read
him I've never shaken my ass.

I mean, not--not that it's bad
that you, you know,

shake your--I'm--I'm gonna
put the soup on.

- Now, Lisa, you know that's
not at all what I'm saying.

- You don't have to.

And neither does your family.
I see how they look at me.

- Come on now,
you're overreacting.

- No, I'm not.

And I guess I was wrong about
people looking past my past.

- Okay, guys, listen.

Can I please give you
some advice?

- No disrespect but--
- Okay, listen.

Whatever you say, I'm sure
it's about to be

disrespectful, okay?
- Okay. You're right.

- You guys sit down.
Just sit down.

[sighs]

As someone who has been
in a long-term,

serious relationship, you guys,

you have to talk to each other.

You have to listen to each
other and understand.

And you have to compromise.

Because if someone had given
me that advice...

I don't think things would have
turned out the way they did.

You all talk.

- ♪

- Malik, I wanna do better
for my life.

- I--and believe me, I know
that.

And I wanna be a part of it.
I wanna be in your life.

- Well, you and your family are
gonna have to stop judging me.

- [sighs]

Come on, bae, I thought we
were #RelationshipGoals.

- Stop being so nerdy.

- I'm the nerdy one?

You were just referencing
"Romeo and Juliet."

- "My only love sprung from
my only hate.

Too early seen unknown and known
too late."

That's from the first act.

You ain't gonna be around for
the third

if you don't quit trippin'.

- ELLA: Lisa!
What's taking so long, baby?

Chop-chop, he needs it.
- Turkey sandwich

and a glass of water,
per your request.

- [laughs] I said
toasted, Havarti cheese,

room-temperature water.
- You know what?

It's fine.
- No, it's not.

No, it is not. We have got to
do everything we have to.

We have got to do everything
to get you back on your feet.

And I need you to have exactly
what you need.

- Okay, thanks.
- ELLA: Yes.

- I see why Uncle Curtis is
always parked in his chair.

I could get used to this
right here.

- Get used to what?
Yes.

- All this care
and comfort.

You know, it could take months

to recuperate from a back
injury.

- I will not be moving in
this house for a month

to take care of you.

- That's what me and Malik
are here for.

- That's right.

I do have two grown kids
living in my house.

- And we are here to do
whatever you need.

- What I need is for y'all

to get jobs and move out.

- And while you're at it,
get married,

and stop all this shacking up.

- I was just trying to help.
- Lisa.

Can you check on the bathrooms
for me, baby?

Just make sure they're clean.

- I sure can.

And while I'm at it, I'm gonna
do my sisters' dresses,

and my pumpkin, get it ready
for the players' ball,

and milk the cow, and get
dinner ready and do all--

- Thank you!
That's perfect!

- [phone ringing]
- Oh. Oh, that's my wife.

- Oh. Hi, honey.
- Hey. Hey, baby.

Huh? No, I'm fine.
I'm a little sore,

but I'll be alright.

Uh-huh. Say what?

No. Oh, okay, well,
thanks for letting me know.

Alright. Love you.

- Here you go.
- [exhales]

- Everything alright?

- Well--
- Put your hand out.

- Janine--Janine says that, uh,
she working on a PR firm.

And the media has called
a city council meeting because

the mayor's asking questions
about a breech in procedure

during the fire.

- Why?

- They looking for somebody
to terminate. A scapegoat.

- [laughs]

Well, who are they looking at?

- I don't know.

But Janine is looking
into it.

I don't know, whoever it is,

they sure gonna wish they
hadn't come out of that fire.

- ELLA: C.J., sit down.
Baby, you--

You're never gonna get better
if you keep moving around.

- Yeah, but while you're up,

can you grab me another
home remedy?

- Curtis!
- It's okay, I, uh--

I need to keep moving around
to keep from getting stiff.

I wanna walk tall
into my meeting.

- I cannot believe that they
are investigating you.

This is why you never should
have run into that building.

- I'm gonna tell you what,
I've seen how these things

can become witch hunts.

It happened to one of my boys.

- What did he do?

- Threw a back-to-school
fundraiser in Magic City.

- [laughs]

- And that thing was lit!

You heard me?
- That's crazy. That's good.

Hey, how did he get caught?

- An audit revealed they made
more money

than a Falcon home game.

- Hey, look.

I can appeal, right?
- Yeah, of course you can.

Burger appealed his termination.

- Burger got fired.
- And lost his severance.

- C.J., did the city say
why you're being investigated?

- No, they just said something
about, uh,

department protocol and
procedure.

- Get out of there!

- I didn't do anything wrong.

- Except play Superman
without a cape.

- Every man in that company
would have done the same for me.

I hired Andre, so I'm
responsible for him.

I want to make sure that he gets
home to his family every night.

- I wouldn't have done that
for Andre.

- C.J., who's gonna come in here
and take care of your family

when you don't come home?

Who's gonna live in your house?
- Ooh.

- Put your hand down.
- Put your hand down,

Uncle Curtis.

- I'm just saying, why trust
a stranger?

Might as well will it
to family.

I am in your will, right?

- ELLA: C.J.

Curtis said that these
review boards

almost never work out for
the person being investigated.

- Well, I'll let you know
when I walk out of there,

cleared, with my head
held high.

- Or on the chopping block.

- "Good morrow, my lady.

"Reputation is an idle

"and a more false imposition,

oft go without merit and
lost without deserving."

- Don't be coming out here
trying to make up.

That ain't even
"Romeo and Juliet."

- [laughs]

I know it's not.

It's "Othello."
- "Othello."

- I performed it when I was
in elementary school.

- Okay, I didn't really take
you as like the "Othello" type.

- What does that mean?
- I don't know.

It just--Othello is more like
a James Earl Jones.

Or like a LeBron James or...

a Barack.

- I could be all of those
dudes.

Besides from LeBron.

- Yeah, 'cause he has like
multiple championship drip.

- So now the judged is becoming
a judge.

- I'm not judging you.
- No, that's exactly

what you're doing.

You were just doing what you
got mad at me for doing earlier.

- Babe, no, I'm not.
- Yes, it is.

You literally told me that I
couldn't be LeBron.

- No, I said LeBron is more
like Othello than you are.

- I can absolutely be Othello.

I was Othello.

And I Othello-ed the hell
out of "Othello."

- Okay, now you're talking
crazy.

- [laughs] No, what's crazy
is that we're arguing about

Shakespeare with my baby mama
who was a dancer. [laughs]

It's crazy, but it's one
of the things

that I love about you the most.

- Don't try to hustle
a hustler.

- [laughs] Look, it's no hustle.

There's no shade.
It's just all facts.

Lisa, you take chances.

You know how to survive.
- Mm.

- Me, on the other hand,
I normally like to play it safe

and do what's comfortable.

- And that's what I love
about you.

You're grounded
and stable.

You're normal.

- That don't sound like
a compliment.

- Ain't nothing wrong with
normal.

I mean, I want that in my life.

I've never been with anybody
like you.

- No, see, that's a real
compliment.

- "This above all,
to thine own self be true."

- "For she had eyes
and chose me."

- I sure did.
And I'd do it again.

- Okay, I have filled out all
of your workers' comp paperwork.

However, I do need you to
just sign right there--

- Oh.

And your confirmation should
be in your email.

I really appreciate that.

I don't know what I would
do without you.

You guys are being
so helpful.

- Oh, you'd be dead.
[laughs]

- Wow. Can't wait to get
rid of me, huh?

- Oh, no, no, no,
you know we're just kidding.

I would give you a kidney
if you needed it.

You don't need a kidney,
do you?

- [laughs]

If there is one thing that
I have learned from this family

is that we always help
each other in a time of need.

Oh, and how to make
a bomb snickerdoodle. Mm.

- Pot roast.

- I hate to be the old man
in the bed

ringing the dinner bell,
but y'all are making me hungry.

- Well, C.J., I'll make you
a snack if you want something.

What would you like?

- Anything that will help me
get my strength back.

I wanna be able to get up,
walk into that meeting

with my head held high,
state my case,

and get my name cleared.
- C.J.

I would be lying if I said
I was not worried about you...

going into that meeting.

- Why? I got a stellar
record,

and I didn't do anything wrong.

- This is different, C.J.

You're gonna have to do
what I learned

going through this divorce.
- Don't use DIY legal services

for a prenup?
- [laughs]

No.

You just--you have to learn
what you can control.

And what you can't control,
you just have to surrender to it

and just keep moving forward.

- That's good advice.

- You know, like you say,
Miss Ella.

May God's will be done.

Sometimes, all you can do
is pray about it.

- Amen.

- Romeo. Hey, yo, Romeo!
- [laughs]

- What's up, Juliet?
I'm right here.

- That ain't how that go.

- Well, sometimes you have to
rewrite history

so you have a better future.

- So you don't mind my past,
and my flaws,

and my scars, Othello?

- As long as you don't mind
my snoring and passing gas

in the middle of the night,
Desdemona.

- Hell yeah, I do.

You gotta stop doing all that.

- Well, I will truly
work on that, my love.

- I do.

- Oh, but--baby, this not--
this not the time.

I thought we was--I thought
we was playing.

- Why would I play like that?
- Okay, but we--

we could work on that.
We can work on that.

- Why would I play like that?
Like that's dumb.

Why would I play about that?
- Well, that's--

- I love you.
- I love you, too, but--

that's a part of the role play.

I thought--

You're so frustrating.
