Previously on If Loving You Is Wrong. We can't find Justice.

He's here. Wait, he's here?

Justice? Why didn't you answer your phone?

I was talking to Travis. You are never to talk to him. I'm here from the court

to do a DNA test. There's no guy.

His name is Lucian Morgan. I just wanted to apologize.

I don't care. And to let you know that I'm dropping the lawsuit against you.

You're never going to believe.

What the hell are you doing here?

You ain't going nowhere.

This party's getting started.

What the hell are you doing here?

I was just getting ready to leave.

No, no, no, no, no.

Don't you take one step towards that door.

Eddie, let him go.

Brad, you want to get your dog?

Eddie?

No.

I said let him go.

I heard you.

Well, then do it then.

No.

Eddie, Eddie.

Eddie, so we're doing this again, huh? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. You're going to

tell me exactly what I want to hear. What the hell are you doing here?

Well, I came to apologize to Brad.

To apologize, huh?

Yep. Yeah, is that right, Brad?

Yes.

Who the hell do you think you are coming up to this man's office talking about

you want to apologize?

Eddie, I said let him go.

And I said no.

Eddie.

I'm not letting him go.

So what are you going to do, shoot him? Yeah, you don't think I will?

Eddie.

No, no, no, no.

I don't give a damn anymore.

I'm tired of seeing your face everywhere I go.

I'll shoot him right here in your office. I'll spill him all over this. I

you will.

You know I will. Tell him he better start talking right now. Okay, okay.

See, that's the problem.

All these close calls, all these near misses with you, I ain't going to miss.

I'll put a bullet right in your forehead, right here, right now.

You really going to say you came up here to apologize, that's it?

Mm -hmm.

What did he say during his apology, Brad?

Huh?

He said he was sorry.

Oh, he's sorry.

Well, sorry ain't gonna cut it.

Eddie, he said he was sorry. Now let him go.

Please tell me that you did not fall for his apology.

I just want him out of here.

Now.

Now, Brad, during his little soft ass apology, did he tell you I just left

seeing him and your wife again standing in your front yard in front of your

children? Huh?

All cuddled up with one another. He tell you that during his apology to you?

What did you just say?

No, you heard me.

You heard me. I just left your house.

He was standing out in the front yard with Alex again.

They were about to make out when I pulled up, weren't you?

Is that so?

Yeah, you heard me.

When?

Right before I came here, Brad.

They were right in your front yard. That's why I came in here in such a rush

tell you.

Is that right, Randall?

Yeah, it is right.

You want to tell him, Randall? You want me to tell him?

The only talking I planned on doing today was right at the end of this

We just... You just what?

We were just talking.

About what?

About the child.

The child.

I think he means your child, right?

No.

He means Lucian's child.

What?

Your wife swinging from every jungle tree in town or what?

That's what he said.

What the hell are you talking about?

Go on, Randall.

Tell him. Yeah, go on, Randall. Tell me.

Well, that's what we were talking about.

Alex told me that Lucian is the father.

I ought to shoot you right in your damn tongue for telling such a lie.

That's what she said.

Ask her.

Oh, I will.

I'll ask both of them.

You should.

You know what? I'm tired of your little smug ass.

Brad, any windows open up in your office?

No. What, are you going to shoot me or are you going to throw me out the

Maybe I'll shoot you and throw you out the window. What do you think about

Take your pick.

Eddie, this is my work.

Okay?

And I'd like to keep this job.

You know what? This is worth losing your job over, Brad. You've lost your whole

damn family. Eddie, just let the bastard go.

Okay.

Okay.

All right, you can go.

You're standing in front of the door.

I know exactly where I'm standing.

You want to move?

Nope.

Okay, then how am I going to get through the door?

Thought I just told you.

Eeny, meeny, miny, moe. Pick one of these windows around here.

Eddie, move out of the way.

Just there now.

No, I'm not stopping him from going. Eddie, I want him out of here.

You heard your master.

Well, come on. Get out of here. Come on, big boy. Yeah.

Mm -hmm.

Come on, enough.

Yeah.

Bye,

Eddie.

And that's all you're going to do about that? That's it?

I can't go around killing people, Eddie. Oh, no, but you can go around jumping

in lakes, saving babies if that ain't yours. That's what you can do now? You

know, it's becoming more and more hard to be your friend.

Come on, Brad.

What the hell's wrong with you?

What is wrong with you? What the hell's wrong with me? What the hell's wrong

with you? What's wrong with me?

Can't you see I'm out here trying to protect you through all this? I've had

enough.

I've had enough of all of it. All I want is peace.

There is no peace, Brad. Your wife is still sleeping with this man.

I just saw him in the front yard. You didn't hear anything that came out of my

mouth?

Just leave.

Just go.

You're not mad about them at all.

I drove all the way up here to tell you what I just saw.

I need you to leave me alone. Just go.

All right, man. I'll go.

But you're a damn fool if you go back with that bitch.

I don't know who you are right now, Brad.

Yes. This is Dr. Ralston.

Oh, hi.

How are you?

Oh, I'm as good as can be expected, I guess.

I heard about all that's going on.

Yeah. How did you hear?

Your son is here, and I'm caring for him.

He is?

Oh, thank God.

Oh, thank God. At least he's with you.

Would you like to see him?

Can I?

Wait, but the judge said it was... I, uh... Well, when I found out that he was

here, I told the judge that I needed you to breastfeed him.

Oh, my God.

Thank you. Thank you so much.

Now, Alex, you can't take him out of the nursery.

No, no, no. Of course. Of course I won't.

Alex, promise me.

I promise. I promise. I really won't. I promise.

Okay. How soon can you come down?

Um... I just, I need to make a phone call and have somebody comment it with

kids really quick, but I can be there just a little bit.

Okay. You do that.

Okay.

Okay. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much.

Can you believe the mess that's going on with Travis?

Yeah.

God, how do you know that they're having any problems?

No, no, no. They're not having problems. He's legitimately stalking her.

Where is she?

She's in there talking to the officer right now, but I don't know. She's been

there a really long time.

Listen,

Essie, are you at work right now? I mean, yeah, I am, but not really. I'm

the clock. Why? What's wrong?

Oh, is there any way that you can leave?

Uh, yeah.

What's wrong?

Um, I just, I need to get to the hospital.

What's wrong? Are you okay? Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. I'm fine. I need to go and

check on the baby.

Oh, honey, I'm so sorry.

No, no, no, no. It's okay.

It's okay. My doctor just called and they said that I, she's going to let me

and feed him. Really?

Okay. That's really good. Okay. Um, I'll, I'll go pick them up.

Oh my God. Thank you. Look, um, do you think you can give me a ride there? Oh,

sorry, honey. I forgot about your car. Yeah. Yeah.

Look, we'll trade off, we'll take the kids, and I'll give them to Kelly when

gets out, okay?

Okay. Okay, I'm on my way, honey. Okay. Thank you so much. Thank you. You're

welcome.

Kids?

I don't even know why you're calling this guy, all right? He can't help you.

Natalie.

Natalie. You hear what I'm saying?

We need to try it, Lucian. This is not trying, all right? This is a waste of

time.

Hey, thank you for coming. Sure. Come on in.

Hey, how you doing, bro?

Would you like some coffee?

That would be nice.

He don't need that.

Lucian. He's here to talk.

About Joey, not play happy homemaker.

Stop it.

Natalie.

Lucy, will you help me with the coffee, please?

Please.

Listen, if you're not going to help me, you can go to my sister's and pick up

the girls. That sounds like a great idea. Good.

As soon as he leaves.

Bruh, I understand you being upset.

Bruh? No, no, no. I ain't your bruh.

I'm here to do your job.

All right? So I'm not upset.

Am I right?

Yes.

Yes, I am. There you go.

Thank you. Would you like some sugar?

No. Black is fine.

You have a lovely home.

Thank you. Thank you.

So, can we talk about Joey?

Yeah, that's why he's here. I mean, I believe that's the reason why he's here,

right?

Well, as I said on the phone, there's nothing I can do. He violated his

probation. Yeah, I know that, but you do know the circumstances.

Yeah, but that's not for me to debate.

The judge will have to rule on that.

But they took him out of that hospital.

He's still in the hospital.

In a prison.

He's getting good care.

You don't understand.

Really, Joey?

He was starting to turn his life around.

He was.

Miss Henning. He was. He had a gun.

I know that.

And he shot a man in cold blood.

Who was trying to kill him.

I'm sorry.

Okay, so what was he supposed to do?

Was he supposed to just let him kill him? He wasn't supposed to have a gun.

Okay, well, what was he supposed to do? He wasn't supposed to have a gun.

I know that.

Do you know how hard it is for a black man once he gets out of jail?

Yeah. I have lots of guys that never violate. Okay, then you need to

that Joey was doing good. He could have went back out on the streets.

He could have went back to slanging.

I mean, he had a good job.

Miss entertaining, there's nothing that I can do. It's in the judge's hands.

That's exactly what I thought.

Lucian. No, no, no.

Get your ass out my house. Lucian. You can't help him.

He's standing there like he got all the power in the world, and he over there

making goo -goo eyes at you. Get your ass out my house.

We need him.

Can you, can you not get him out of jail?

No, I can't. That's what I thought. Get your ass out.

Let's go. Excuse me.

Come on.

Bye, bro.

Oh, damn, Lucian.

We'll get him a lawyer. We'll get him a lawyer. Yeah, we're going to still have

to go through him.

And? So what?

If he's back on the case, I'll have him removed.

Oh, look at you.

You got all the power all of a sudden, huh? I know people.

Yeah, I bet you do. I bet you do.

You probably know the president, don't you?

Over $200 ,000 in the bank.

You know, tell him what's up your sleeve, Lucian.

Well, it's not that much. No, not after this house and Joey's bills.

You paid his bills?

Correction.

I'm paying his bills.

Still got some calls to make and...

Figure some things out. I know some people.

Damn.

I'm engaged to an OT.

Better start acting like you know one.

I'm like that jealous.

I wasn't jealous. I wasn't nothing.

And you're going to stop inviting random men into my house.

Sorry.

And you're going to stop getting mad at me every time I want to do things my

way.

You know that's new for me.

Well, get used to it.

I'm trying.

But you got me, don't you?

You can't tell by now.

Let's go break this bed in.

I know. I know.

Come on, girl.

I'm tired.

I thought you'd be up out of the bed.

I wish I was.

Oh, you're back.

I'm so glad and so sorry that Randall ran you away. How are you? Still good?

I'm still good.

Well, then, let's get out of here. Let's go shopping.

Oh, you're in good spirits.

Am I?

Yeah. I must admit, I'm happy to see it. I don't know what's the point of being

sad and mad all the time, right?

Garden into you.

Well, if you were Randall, I would say it was... Don't brag.

I asked you not to say it. You asked.

I asked you not to say it. Sorry.

Well, you know, I've been wondering what it was that you wanted to say to me a

little while ago.

I can't even remember. Right.

I can remember everything as old as I am, and you can't remember what you

to say?

Sorry.

Come on, Missy. Out with it. What?

What you wanted to say.

Okay.

Okay, you ready for this?

Do I need to go get the defibrillator?

No, stop it.

What?

It's Brad.

Okay.

I'm in love with him.

Are you sure?

And when did this happen?

I don't know exactly when.

Marcy, be careful.

No, look, it's fine, it's fine. We're not going to be together or anything.

Well, that's good, because he's the rebound man.

The what?

The rebound man. The man you meet right after a breakup.

And he helps you get over it. But then one morning you wake up and realize that

he is not all you thought him to be.

The rebound man.

No, Brad.

Brad is all I think he is. You can't be with him.

No, I know. I know. And like I said, we're not trying to be together.

It's just nice to feel.

Love. This isn't, this isn't like what Randall and I have.

This is real love.

Safe and pure.

It's based on sex. No.

No, it isn't.

It isn't? No. Are you sure?

Yeah. No, we're not even having sex.

You aren't? No. Most of the time he just, he kisses me.

He holds me very good with intimacy.

Lately, no sex.

Promise.

Do you want my advice?

Yes, that's why I came here.

Let it go.

Let it go until you've cleaned up your old house.

You can't move into your new house unless you do, or you won't get your

back.

What the heck does that mean?

Make sure that you're over your

feelings for the old house, Randall.

Make sure they're gone before you move into the new house, Brad.

Otherwise, you won't get your deposit back, which means you won't be

able to stay one day.

That you're still in love with Randall.

I do love Randall.

Well,

all the more reason to throw it down.

I will never be with Randall. Never say never.

Never, never, never, never.

I'll remember that at the never re -wedding.

You wish.

I am so damn mad at you.

Excuse me?

Don't act like you don't know who this is.

Miss Diane?

Yes?

How can I help you?

How can you help me?

I'm at the jail.

Okay.

They're not sure whether they're going to let him go on probation.

Oh, really?

Don't act surprised.

Did you call them? No, I didn't. Are you sure? I didn't.

Because if I find out that you had anything to do with it, girl, I promise

I promise you.

How was it?

It was really hard leaving him.

Tell me what's going on.

Oh, it's nothing.

It's nothing.

Tell me. Maybe I can help.

It's, um... It's Randall.

He's trying to take him away from me.

You think?

Yeah.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

No, it isn't.

No, it is. I get it. It's his baby, too.

Is it?

Yes.

Are you sure?

Yes. Why do you ask that?

I just heard something about multiple partners.

No, no.

That isn't true.

You know, it's a very small town.

Yeah, too small.

Who... Where did you hear that?

Well, let's just say you marry a judge who talks to other judges, who talks to

lawyers.

The doctor -lawyer -judicial thing is very close.

Is there a way that you can help me?

Help you how?

Keep him from taking the baby.

Alex, is he that bad?

Yes. Would he hurt him?

No, no.

Okay, well then...

How is he bad?

He needs to be with me. The baby needs to be with me, not him. Maybe you should

just find a way to co -parent.

No, that is not going to happen. Okay, tell me one bad thing about him.

He's arrogant and he... Okay, tell me why he would be a bad father.

That is my child.

Yeah, I get that. He needs to be with me. Okay, there's nothing I can do to

you, especially if you can't even tell me why he shouldn't have him.

He only wants the baby to be able to control me.

Okay, he cannot do that unless you let him. He can if he has my baby.

Alex. No, you don't understand. You don't know him.

I'm sorry.

There's nothing legal I can do unless you can give me some. No, it's okay.

okay.

I get it. It's fine. Thank you.

You come see him as much as you can, okay?

I will.

Thank you.

No, it's okay.

How's that baby coming?

You're pregnant?

Oh, I'm sorry. You two know each other?

Yes. Yes, this is the bitch that was sleeping with my husband.

I'm sorry.

What?

No, no, it's fine. It's fine because now I'm having one by her.

So... What?

We're even.

What?

Yeah. Yeah, Brad and I are having a baby.

What, you thought you were the only one that could play that game?

I am so sorry. I didn't know.

No, no, it's fine.

She was bound to find out sometime.

Oh, look at her.

She looks like she got punched in the gut.

Alex, I'm so sorry. I didn't know.

Don't be. Don't be.

Hold that elevator.

Now, why do you look so shocked?

Say something.

Cat got your tongue?

Yeah, well, Brad had mine, too, so... I just love screwing your husband.

So much that it knocked me up.

This is just the longest elevator ride ever.

And the worst one.

It's for you anyway.

I'm gonna have a baby.

Your husband's baby.

Oh, you know, I think I'll name him Brad.

Just like your baby.

Twinsies.

Hey, did he ever do that thing to you that he does to me?

I think that's how I got knocked up. You know the... You know the one where

he... That one.

Yeah, that's how you make a baby.

Oh, this elevator is so slow.

Must be like molasses for you.

Hey, did you guys know that she slept with my husband?

I'm sure you got that by now.

But now I'm sleeping with her.

I'm not a bad person.

Really. She started it.

But now I have a baby on the way, so it's all good.

We're going to be great parents.

Neighbors. Friends.

You like it, girls?

Yes, I love our room. This is beautiful.

You look like princesses. Oh, baby, you are princesses.

Are you rich now?

No, we're not rich now. Lucian and I have to work very hard to pay for this.

But this is our house. Yes, it is our house. Yes.

I love the color. You do?

Yeah. Good.

And my bed.

Oh, you love your bed. Well, great.

All right, listen. Do not make a mess in here. Okay. All right.

So what do you think, huh?

Our house?

Oh, yes. Yes, it is.

This is my room?

Yes, it's your room.

I have my own bed.

Well, this one is mine.

George is going to have to sleep somewhere else.

Is that right?

Yeah. Where is George?

He's in the hospital.

Is he okay?

Mm -hmm.

He's going to be just fine.

Okay, good. I won't let nobody touch his bed until he comes home.

Oh, I get it.

Hey, that's that probation officer. You better get rid of his ass.

All right, look, I want you to do your homework, okay?

Uh -huh.

Come on, do your homework.

Hi. Hi.

Can I help you? Yes, I'm looking for a Natalie Henning.

That's me.

And a Lucian Morgan.

Who are you?

My name is Tiffa Haynes. I'm from AFTG Labs.

And what's this about?

I have a court order to get DNA samples from the both of you.

For what?

Well, Ms. Henning is being ordered to give DNA to eliminate her as a suspect

the Ramsey -Wolters homicide.

What?

If you need to know anything else, you need to call me. No, no, no. I didn't

have anything to do with that, now. No, it's fine, all right? Just because you

were in the house before.

Before what?

Before he was killed.

Oh. Wait, he was killed in the south.

No, no, no, he wasn't.

It is the same address.

Just give her the sample. No, why?

To eliminate you.

No, I don't want them having my DNA.

Lucien, you know Edward is down there.

He's not Edward, okay?

All right, trust me, this makes sense.

Wait, he died in here?

Look, we're glad to give you the DNA sample.

No, we're not.

Natalie.

No. Please, come in.

This is crazy.

I just need your hair, and I need to take a blood sample. What?

Why? Yeah.

No, no, no. I don't do needles. I'm good. You won't feel it.

You know what? I'll go first.

Yeah, you do that. Okay, thank you. Step up. I just need to take your blood, and

I'm going to swab your jaw.

Why my jaw?

Oh, this is for the paternity test.

Paternity?

What?

Yes, I can kill two birds with one stone. Wait, what? Okay, wait a minute.

Paternity.

I'm not submitting to a paternity test.

What is this?

Paternity? We are trying to determine paternity of Alex Montgomery's baby.

Oh, hell no.

Hey, uh -uh. Get out of here.

What? Get out.

Miss, this is from the court. Then you have the court come arrest us.

You're going to have to leave.

Okay. Fine, then I'm going to have to report that I came and you both refused.

Yeah, well, you do that.

Don't.

What?

Come at me crazy. I'm not coming at you crazy.

It's that damn Alex I'm going to go at crazy.

How the hell did I get into this?

I don't know, but I'm going to get you out of it.

You sure that ain't your baby?

How's my body doing?

Uh, hey.

How you liking that car?

Uh, good. I actually haven't driven it yet.

You kidding me? Why not?

Uh, I mean, I'm a cop, and, you know, people would... Hey, you don't have to

drive around cop.

Take it out on the highway.

Go for a ride, man.

All right, yeah.

Thanks. Of course, brother.

We're friends of four.

So, uh, what's up?

Well, I'm thinking about having a party.

I want you to come by.

Yeah? Yeah, man. So what do you think?

We have a lot of Colombian pure candy.

Really?

Yeah, really.

Yeah, for sure.

When is it?

Tonight.

Okay. All right, cool.

Where?

Send you a nap.

All right. Yeah, cool.

Can I bring my girlfriend?

Girlfriend?

Yeah, she's cool.

No, this is not the thing for girlfriends, man. This is a man's party.

Okay,

yeah, cool.

I need you to do me a favor, Ben.

Okay. I want you to bring something for me.

It's... It's the price of admission.

Cool. I mean, what do you need?

I want a file on Eddie.

Uh... Uh... Uh... Um...

What? Well, what? You heard me, right?

Look, uh, I don't... Look, man, I got a... lot of stuff on him from the

internet, but I need his personal file.

Well, I mean, why do you need that?

First rule of combat is knowing your enemy.

I don't know if I can get that.

I think you can, man. I have faith in you.

All right.

Yeah,

I'll try.

There's no trying, Ben. There's only doing.

Look at it... Look at it this way. You're not doing something for yourself.

You're doing your best friend a favor.

Yeah.

I'll do it.

All right, then. I'll see you tonight.

Uh, yeah.

Sure.

Yeah, grab us some coffee, will you? Yeah, I got you. Thanks.

Go on.

I'm telling you, I did not tell him to take my child.

Okay.

Why aren't you arresting him?

We do have people looking for him. You did see that, so... I cannot believe he

took my son.

Are you sure you didn't ask him to pick him up?

I already told you a hundred times, I didn't.

Thanks, bud. Yeah. There you go.

The time he was at your house, did you not ask him to come over?

Are you hard of hearing?

Okay.

Read that.

Read it.

Come over.

There's more.

Justice is in my bed asleep.

Don't ring the bell.

Come to the back.

Look familiar?

No. The hell it doesn't. No. I did not write this.

It came from your phone.

It couldn't have. It did.

What? Did he give you this?

Yeah.

You do understand that people can manufacture text messages.

How do they do that? Oh, my God.

All you have to do is get another phone, put my name in the contacts, and send a

message to yourself. You're a police officer. You didn't know that?

Oh, I do.

Then why don't you believe me?

Why are you taking his word?

I'm not taking it. Is it because he's a man?

No. You know what?

Let's just stop. Stop all of this. Can I get a woman on this case, please?

Because that'll change the evidence.

That's insulting.

No. No, what is insulting is that he has threatened me, he has come into my

house, he has kidnapped my son, and now I have to defend myself?

Look at this.

I already read that. Oh, so it's the same message. Yeah, it's the same. Oh,

because, you know, me as a man doing my job, this is from the phone company of

your phone records at the exact same time.

What? Yeah.

I didn't text him.

Right, and today?

What? Yeah.

Look, I did not send this.

Read it aloud.

Please.

Can you... Read it.

It's not... Do you want me to read it for you?

Can you please pick Justice up from his baseball game?

And I think I may have left the oven on. Can you check it?

What do you have to say about these?

I didn't write that.

Miss, the records show that it pinged off a tower a few blocks from your bank.

Do you believe him?

I'm an officer.

I follow the law.

Okay.

Okay.

So, leave him.

You know what? Not so fast. What?

The men and women of this department have a job to do.

A job.

This guy is not into you.

You don't need to be dragging us into it. Are you? Kidding me? No, no, I'm

serious. You could press charges. Press charges? Yeah.

You know what? I am out of here.

Yeah, not so fast.

What? Listen, unless you have a warrant for me, I'm going home.

I do.

What?

A warrant.

For me?

Yeah.

I have a warrant.

For what? DNA.

Next. On if loving you is wrong. Wait, what the hell? I'm afraid to go.

Yeah. And the warrant? I'll get it lifted.

He let him go.

Do you think that he's going to come back?

Yes, he's going to come back.

You know, he caught me out of his will. You know, I had nothing to do with that.

But it all comes to it. You can stop Edward. Why are you here? Oh, there's a

chance that that child might not be mine after all.

Alex. I can show you how to get all the inches, not just the little you've been

getting. It's much better if you know what you're doing.
