All language subtitles for One On One s04e22 The Graduates

Last time on One -on -One. I'm going to
the University of Maryland.

Yes! Baby, what about CalArts? I just
decided to stay here and be with my boo.

We need to make sure that she goes to
CalArts, away from Arnaz. How could

Brianna go to California to follow her
dream and you stay here in Baltimore to

follow your dream?

I've been giving this a lot of thought,
and I really think that CalArts is a

better school for you. Are you talking
about us being apart?

Nicole, if Brianna finds out about this,
she's going to hate us for the rest of

our lives.

You just make sure she gets on that
plane to California, and don't screw it

Look what I found in storage.

It was mine in college, and now it's
yours.

You can't go to college without a Foot
Locker. Why not? I'm going without a

boyfriend. Does that Foot Locker have
soft lips and tell me how beautiful I

Uh, no, but a Foot Locker can double for
a coffee table, a stereo stand, and a

jerry curl restoration center.

Seriously, think of California as a new
beginning, a chance to make new friends,

California friends.

I'll bet they're real nice out there.

Oh, really?

You mean like Phil Spector, Robert
Blake, and Scott Peterson nice?

All right, well, just stay away from old
white men with bad haircuts.

Hey, Flex, I'm almost done with
Brianna's graduation video. All I need

the perfect ending.

How about when Brianna received her
diploma?

When that happened.

See, that's what I get for hiring John
Singledom.

So where's our little college student?
In her room, miserable because of me.

Reminds me of my youth.

So what'd you do to ruin her childhood?

Telling that moonwalking naked during
her lunch period would make her popular?

Look, I convinced Arnaz that it would be
better for Brianna to go to California

without him.

I was right for getting involved, wasn't
I?

Absolutely. But then again, I'm the one
who's getting the perfect ending to my

video.

This is gonna blow up in your face and
action. Thank you.

What have I done, D?

I spent four years trying to build my
daughter's trust, and I'm the one who

betrays her.

And I just wish I could tell her.

Well, you can.

Tell it to the lens.

Don't you get it? I just can't tell her,
D.

And she'll hate me for meddling.

And I still think California is what's
best for her.

So, maybe I did the right thing.

You think I did the right thing?

Yeah, of course I did the right thing.

D, tell me I did the right thing.

Man, you did the right thing. It doesn't
count if I have to beat it out of you.

Mama says it counts more.

You're doing everything without me.

You went shopping.

You got ice cream.

You even went to the post office without
me.

Spirit, did you follow me today?

Why do you have to go to summer school?
Why can't you wait until the fall like

normal people? Because I'm not normal.

I'm a theater major.

We have to start in the summer repertory
program.

Besides, I'm trying to get as far away
from here as I possibly can.

Not to be away from you.

We'll always be friends no matter how
far apart we are.

Okay. But promise me we'll talk on the
phone.

You have to call me.

My parents have toll restriction.

Ooh, a present.

Save your money, girl. You get all this
for free.

No, it's not for you. It's for Brianna.

Oh, good. She could use a pick -me -up.
Then again, so could I.

I'm sorry. I just don't want Brianna to
walk in and get the wrong idea. I've

been her father for a long time. She
knows women can't resist me.

Yeah, you better.

Brianna, I was looking for you.

Really? Did you think I was in the back
of my daddy's mouth? I brought

you a present.

Oh, I'm not grossed out anymore.

therapy this is for when something
wonderful happens to you then you can

it down oh thanks well i i noticed you
didn't give me a pin so i guess you're

feeling as optimistic as i am uh yes
she's been like that ever

since her and on his broke up oh poor
girl but i know she'll get through it

because she has you what's that supposed
to mean i just meant that you're a good

father You know, you two have a level of
trust and honesty that most

relationships never reach.

You're a wonderful and loving parent,
Flex.

Any girl would be lucky to have a father
like you.

Don't you agree?

What's with the 20 questions?

I only asked one.

I went behind Brianna's back and
convinced Arnaz that it's best for her

California without him there. Are you
happy? You with your Freudian mind

Flex, just back off, will you? It wasn't
just me. Nicole pressured me.

You met her.

She's scary.

She doesn't even cook her meat anymore.

Besides, at the time, it made sense.
Look, we just want what's best for her.

Flex, you're a wreck. You have to come
clean with Brianna. No, I can't. Well,

why not?

You never had trouble being honest with
her before. Why is it so hard now?

Is it because you know you shouldn't
have interfered? Oh.

All right, you're right.

I'll tell her.

Curse you and your PhDs.

You're welcome. No, that'll be $100.

No, seriously, go get your checkbook.

All right, sis, your flight gets in at 8
o 'clock.

I know it's a six -hour flight.

Yeah, I know there's a time difference.

You're three hours behind.

What do you mean, and how are we having
this conversation right now?

Bernadette, please, just pick her up.

Thank you. Bye.

Daddy, is Aunt Bernadette still picking
me up from the airport?

Yeah, but it's a chance she'll be three
hours late.

Baby, look, there's something I need to
tell you. I already know no drugs, no

booze, no babies.

No, I mean, yes.

And don't forget, no reality shows.

But in addition to that, I just want
to... Oh, I'm going to miss you.

Oh, don't worry, girl. I already told
you you're going to visit me in

California. Remember?

Sunshine, beaches, hot boys.

I guess that could be fun.

You know what else is going to be fun?
Never seeing you again.

Oh, come on, just one last dig before I
never see you again.

All right, seriously, get out. Come on.
Come on.

Bye. Say bye. Bye.

All right, baby, we need to talk
seriously.

What is it, Daddy?

Sweetie, I...

Rihanna and I need to talk. Man, this is
an outrage.

I'm her godfather. I was there when she
was born.

And I was listening when she was
conceived. All

right, look, I'm going to make

this quick so we can hurry up and get to
the airport.

I kind of tricked Arnaz into telling you
to go to California without him. I'm

glad that's off my chest. Let's roll.
Wait, wait, wait.

Hold up. You didn't what?

Look. Bree, your mother and I were
worried about you and Arnaz being too

up in each other. And we didn't want you
to make the same mistakes we did.

So I talked to him and helped him
realize that you two being apart was

everyone.

Your mother made me do it.

How could you?

How could you go behind my back and
meddle in my life?

Baby, I just want what's best for you.
Stop saying that. All you care about is

what's best for you.

Look, I know you're hurt, but I'm still
your father.

Father, but I'm not getting on that
plane until I talk to Arnett.

What? You are not leaving this house
without me going with you.

They're gone, Arnaz.

They left for the airport a while ago.

I just wanted to say goodbye.

Dwayne, you're killing me.

I know how you're feeling.

Next time, try knocking with the side of
your hand and knock your knuckles more

meat.

Dwayne, I hope I did the right thing.

I mean, I can't eat. I can't sleep.

Brianna's been my world for the last
four years.

I really love her, and I'm going to miss
her.

Yeah, I feel the same way.

Except for the can't eat part.

I was about to fire up the fondue. Can I
tempt you?

I can't believe I pushed her away.

It wasn't just you.

It was what Flex and Nicole wanted. Why
do you think he came to talk to you in

the first place?

Well, because he was just pointing out
that Brown would be better off in

California without me.

Oh, my God.

How could I be so stupid?

Sorry, Sonia. You get that from me.

Dwayne, you know you're not my dad,
right?

That hurts, Arnaz.

After everything I did for you.

Look, look.

Flex just did what he thought was best
for Brianna, and so did you.

Yeah, but it hurts so much.

Oh, son.

That's because you made the ultimate
sacrifice.

You set her free.

Now it's time to start thinking about
yourself.

I mean, music has always been your
dream, and now that dream is starting to

true. I heard your song on the radio the
other day.

Fighting for revolution.

Brianna,

I will not

let you get on that plane without you
speaking to me.

All right, don't make me buy a ticket
and come with you.

Fine, I'll talk to you.

Thanks for the ride. Bye.

Brianna, what I did was one of the most
difficult things I've ever done, and

that includes marrying your mother.

Look, I'm just trying to keep it real.

Look, sometimes, as a parent, you have
to be the bad guy.

I tried for the last four years not to
be that guy.

This is something I had to do, baby.

So you can be mad at me if you want, but
I feel California is where you belong.

It's all right, baby.

It's tough for me, too.

I just wish Arnaz would have fought
harder for me.

You crying tears over the boy?

No. I mean, he has one talk with you,
and he just lets me go.

What kind of man is he?

Oh, baby, you know, I am kind of
convincing. I do this thing with my

You know what?

Maybe you did do me a favor.

Going to California alone is going to be
the best thing that ever happened to

me.

That's my baby.

Yeah.

I'm not going to let some cute, mindless
boy hold me back.

Okay.

Time.

Oh, Daddy.

Oh, wait a minute. I got something for
you.

Your mom sent it to me a while ago. She
must have eaten the other ear during one

of her feedings.

Thanks, baby.

All right, now you better go before I
start.

Oh, too late.

Bye, baby.

Bye, baby.

Bye, baby.

Bye.

Bye.

He's got a name.

He's got a soul.

He's got a heart.

It's got a home.

He's got a name.

He's had to go first class, huh?

Look, that's where I'm headed. I got my
passport and everything.

Are you serious?

Yeah. I don't bother to leave Baltimore
without a passport.

Rana, look, it's important that I'm true
to myself and that I follow my heart.

And my heart's going to California, so
that's where I'm going.

Oh, well, what about your band, your
career, your future?

The only future that I'm sure of is the
one with you.

And I was a fool to let anyone, even
your father, try to convince me

Yeah, about that.

You have one conversation with my dad
and you're ready to just give me up?

Why didn't you just say no? Haven't you
learned anything from being with me?

I know.

I'm sorry.

But your daddy does the thing with his
eyebrow.

Look, Brianna, I know you don't want to
hear this right now, but I would give

anything to have parents who cared about
me the way that yours do about you.

I love you more than anything, Brianna.

I love you, too.

Let me get the light for you.

I love first class.

Danielle, maybe this was a mistake.

You won't be able to cheer me up.

I miss my baby too much.

I'm just in a funk.

Just crystal. Keep going.

I wish I had a shower.

Take it down.

Maybe I had no idea you looked so
naughty.

Me neither.

Until I met you.

Oh, don't choke me.

I can't explain this.

Baby, what happened? What are you doing
here?

Daddy, I'm not going to California.

And the shoes better be at the end of
that sentence.

Look, Daddy, I appreciate what you and
Mommy were trying to do for me, but I'm

18 now, and I need to make my own
decisions.

I've heard something I thought I'd never
say to my daughter.

Baby, could you untie me so we can talk
about this?

Uh, yeah, in one minute, because it's
just one more thing.

Uh, I'll just stand by the door.

Uh, I won't be living with you anymore.
I'm moving in with Arnez because that's

where my heart is.

Oh, your heart?

What about my heart, huh?

The one that your mother's gonna rip out
of my chest when she finds out you're

moving in with the boy.

Look, look, Daddy, I know this is a lot
of information to take in right now, so

why don't you go back to doing...
whatever it was y 'all was doing.

Look, I'm sorry, Mr. Washington. I just,
I love her too much to let her go. Hey,

Martinez, I understand. I appreciate
that, man. Come here, man. We never get

talk, man. Come here.

I'm so proud of you and the band and
everything.

You know what I'm saying?

No, Mr. Washington.

Not the eyebrow.

Oh, no, no. There's no brow, bro.

Just why don't you untie me so we can
shake hands like men?

I'm done, Mr. Washington.

But I don't want to be dead dumb.

See ya!

Now open the

door to our apartment.

What's that?

An eviction notice.

Arnaz! What?

Okay, I was behind a couple of months
with the rent, but I raised the money

I was gonna pay up today.

And I use it so I can buy a ticket so I
can get on a plane and get my girlfriend

back.

Aw.

But wait, wait. Where are we going to
live?

Well, as long as we're together, it
doesn't matter where we live. Right,

I'm sorry. Have we met? I'm spoiled.

You need to take care of me, Arnaz.

Hey, we're a team now. We split
everything.

If I had a sandwich, half of it would be
yours.

Oh, really?

Well, where are we eating this sandwich?
On the street?

There's no actual sandwich.

It's just a metamorphosis for our
relationship.

And you're the one going to college.

It's called a metaphor, Arnaz. A
metaphor.

Well, I don't know anything about
metaphors.

But I know what this is for.

Love you too, Netta.
