Previously on "Martin.."

Major network wants to take

my show national.

Thinking about asking Shanise to marry me.

What are you doin' in LA?

Well, the record company flew me out here

to look for the next Whitney.

Mr. Whitaker promoted me

to senior vise president.

- That's wonderful! - He wants me to move to LA!

There's been a change.

But they're still gonna do the show, right?

Brah, we gotta move to LA.

I'm flying back today. Why don't you just come with me?

- I'm in the money. - Baby, I'm home!

- You here? - Da, tada, tada.

Yo, boo. Your man's here.

Gina.

Baby, your man's here. Boo!

Gina!

Honey, baby!

- There you are-- - Uh, who are you?

Hey, man, you ain't Gina.

- Where's my wife? - You must be Martin.

Gina is in Detroit. She wanted to surprise you.

Nah, nah, Gina..

Gina's not crazy enough to fly

halfway across the country without tellin' me.

Isn't that what you just did?

Oh, damn.

Are you sure this is how you wanna do this?

Oh, yeah. Yeah, now look, look, remember, man.

When-when Shanise shows up, right, I give you the signal

then you bring the cupcake with the ring in it over.

Right, so you want me to bring the cupcake over after dinner.

Tsk. The cupcake is dinner, Nipsey. Okay?

You know how much I had to spend on that ring?

Had to use my Pacer as a down payment.

You sold the Pacer? Man, you must really be in love.

- Hey. Hi, Shanise. - Hi, Nipsey.

- How you doin'? - Good.

- Hey, hey, baby. Hey. - Hi.

- Come on, sit on down. - Okay.

- Sit right there. Yeah. - Here?

Okay, now, my little cream-filled doughnut.

I've been thinkin' a lot about us and I've been thinkin' about

takin' our relationship to the next level.

I thought we were on the top level.

Oh, unless you wanna go to the roof.

That's not what I meant.

Alright, better yet, I'mma just go on ahead

and show you that.

Here you go, Cole.

Here's the cupcake, uh, y-you had ordered earlier.

Uh, right, right. That's for you.

- Thank you, Nipsey. - You're welcome.

Thank you, Nipsey.

Um, um, you-you can go now, Nipsey.

I wanna see what happens.

Nipsey, don't you got somethin' you ought to be doin'

right about now?

- Nah, I'm on break. - Mm-hmm.

Get out of here, Nipsey!

That was so good, Cole.

You, you ate the whole thing?

I'm sorry, baby. I was starving.

- Open up! - I..

You know what you just did?

You just ate my Pacer.

Oh, gosh!

How are we gonna get home?

Comin'.

Yeah..

- Hey, girl. - Hey, G, what's up?

How did it go with Martin last night?

Pam, you are not gonna believe this.

Ugh, he washed himself in hot water

and shrunk himself again.

No, Pam. Martin's in LA.

What is he doin' in LA?

Shanaynay told me he flew there to surprise me.

Wait a minute, wait a minute, so what you're sayin' is

when we got to Detroit, mighty mouth was on his way to LA?

- Mm-hmm. - Ha! That's hysterical!

- You gotta be kiddin' me, Gina. - No, Pam. It is not funny.

Girl, I flew all the way out here

to tell him about my promotion, geese myself up

he's not here, he's 5000 miles away.

That's not funny.

Be happy he's gone.

Payne residence.

Pam, is that you?

Pam, just be a good Pam and put Gina on the phone.

And don't worry, you'll get your Scooby snacks.

- Shut up, Martin. - Do you like beef jerkies?

'Cause you could snack on that in your free time.

- You snack-- - Martin.

Hey, Gina. What's up, baby?

Hey, hey, baby. How you doin'?

Well, I'm at your LA office, boo.

And, look, I can't believe you are back in Detroit.

What's happenin'?

- Uh, baby. - Yeah?

- Um, I got important news. - What?

Well, Mr. Whitaker offered me a job runnin' the LA office.

Get outta here. What?

- Runnin' the LA office? - Yeah, baby.

Well, well, look. Well, check this out, Gina.

They offered me a national talk show.

So guess what. We both gonna be workin' in LA!

Oh, my God. Sorry, Martin. That is great!

I-I was so scared this wasn't gonna work out.

Me, too, you know? No doubt about that. Me, too.

But, look, check it out, I'm on my way home, alright?

Okay, baby. Baby, hurry up. I love you.

Yeah, I love you, too, boo.

- Okay, bye. - Bye.

What, what, what? It's killin' me!

It's killin' me! Tell me, tell me.

Martin got offered his own national talk show

in LA.

Baby, we going to LA!

- Oh, yes! Oh, yes! Oh, yes! - Oh, yes! Oh, yes!

That's wonderful, Gina. I'm so happy for you!

Oh, Pam, this is so great!

While Martin is filming his talk show

we will be shopping in Beverly Hills.

We will be chillin' on the beach.

Yes, we will, darlin', and we're gonna do lunch.

- We're going to do.. - We're gonna meet men.

I'm going to the movies.

- Yeah! Yes.. - I'm doin'..

- Wait a minute. Hold, uh.. - What?

There's just, uh, somethin' wrong with this picture.

What?

I'm not goin' to LA.

Oh.

Pam.

Alright, now, Martin's plane lands any minute now, okay?

So he'll be here in about an hour.

I can't believe how fast you put this together, Tom.

I had to, man. It's Martin's last dead hour at the bar.

- They had to do it right. - Yeah.

It's the last time I can get Martin to pay his tab.

- Are you alright? You cool? - Yeah, I-I'm fine.

But I still don't understand why you took me to get x-rayed.

You, you are so beautiful on the outside

that I had to have a picture of

how beautiful you are on the inside.

That is so sweet.

- I'm gonna go freshen up. - Okay.

Uh, what's up, Cole? Well..

Man, I thought she ate the ring, then I had her x-rayed

and the ring wasn't in there, and I don't know where it is.

Look, okay, don't worry, alright?

You're not the first person to ever lose a ring.

Remember Martin lost his? Ha-ha-ha-ha..

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, word.

Uh, if-if I lost the charm, I-I'd be hurt

but if I lost something like my wedding ring, ugh, I'd die.

Wait a minute, how do I know this ain't fake, Hustle Man?

How you know it ain't fake? Hold on.

Look through there, cuz. Check the clarity on that, chief.

See, now, that's real ice drippin' right there.

You know, maybe I'mma do what Martin did.

Maybe-maybe I-I'll go get another ring

to replace that ring. I'mma go holler at Hustle Man.

I'll be right back.

Alright, man. He is so stupid.

Who you're calling stupid, brah?

I can get a drink in, brah?

Wait, wait, wait, wait. You're George Clinton, man!

Hm. Sure ain't the other--

Hey, yeah! Hey, hey, dawg!

- This is the atomic-- What? - Hey, hey. Shh.

I wanna draw no attention to myself, I just wanna

get that drink, get on back to the mother ship, man.

Alright, cool. Don't-don't get too fogged up.

Okay.

You, you're Clinton. You don't pay.

'Hey, Lisa. How are you doin'?'

- You got it, big Nip. - Hey, uh, e-excuse me.

I-I really don't wanna get in your business, but aren't you

Lisa Leslie, the basketball player?

- Yes, I am. - Oh, man. I'm Tommy Strawn.

It's nice to meet you. You here for Martin's party?

- Who's Martin? - Martin Payne.

- Oh, the talk-show host? - Yes, yes, yes!

- You know him, don't you? - Well, I don't know him.

But I heard my girl's putting on him.

Right, right.

No, no. Hey, we ain't goin' out like that, alright, y'all?

- Just-just follow my lead. - What?

- Ah! My knees! - What're you talkin' about..

Hustle Man's parole thing didn't come through.

He gonna be out of commission indefinitely.

Oh, man.

Tommy, I don't know what I'mma do, man.

I cannot propose without a ring.

Ow!

I just chipped my gold tooth on somethin'.

- Man! - Hold up. No.

Oh, that must be Cole's ring, they must have put it

in the wrong cupcake. Yo, Cole!

What is it?

Look what Lil' Dawg found in his mouth.

In his mouth?

Hey, hey, be careful with that.

You already broke three of my glasses with your clumsy self.

Excuse me. Me, clumsy?

If I can recall, I'm not the one

who got our head stuck in the headboard.

That's right. Yeah, yeah, yeah, remember?

Uh, it-it was stuck in the headboard.

You was runnin' around here all scared

like a chicken with her head cut off.

I was not scared, okay?

Excuse me, that's not the way I remember it.

Martin, will you please help me?

- I can't get out! - Okay, okay, I'm comin', baby.

I'm coming. Look, turn sideways.

Turn, turn sideways, Gina.

- Ow! Ow! - Give me..

- Alright. - Ha-ha-ha!

It wasn't that funny!

Yes, it was.

Okay, okay. You want funny?

No, I'mma give you funny. I'll give you funny.

What about, what about the time you got hypnotized

and you started acting like Martin?

No, that wasn't funny.

- Want some champagne? - Oh, I would love some.

- Thank you. - Sash.

Two glasses of champagne, please.

Wassup, wassup, wassup?

Oh, what's up with you?

Nothin'. Just chillin'.

Layin' here in the cut.

I-I like the cut of that dress.

- It-it's very stunning. - Oh, this?

Ah, just a little somethin' somethin' I put together.

You know how I do.

Boom-pow!

Like how!

Ow! Babe!

Oh, tha-that was funny.

- Shut up, Gina! - Ouch!

I guess we both have gotten a little wild sometimes.

Oh, Pam, Pam, remember the time that we auditioned

to be Martin's friend's background singers?

- Oh, my God! - Oh, my God..

Girl, come on. We better stop clownin'.

- We got a lot of packin' to do. - Sure do.

Hey, Pam.

I'm gonna miss you.

I'mma miss you, too, G.

- I love you, girl. - I love you, too, baby.

Yo, Tommy. What's up, man?

Tommy "Hitman" Hearns is in the house, y'all!

I'm glad you could make it, man.

Well, you know I had to say goodbye to my man Martin, man.

Hey, y-you don't have to worry

'cause, um, he ain't, he ain't mad at you

even though you beat him like he stole somethin'.

Yeah, we needed to give him couple of good lessons.

'Where did he get this strike?'

Got him. I cornered him, baby.

'Uh-oh.'

'This could hurt.'

Hey, Tommy. Did the swellin' ever go down?

Yeah, yeah. Everywhere but his ears.

Ha-ha-ha! Tut-tut-tut..

- Yo, excuse me, my man. - Ah, you..

You better, you better be careful or may knock you out!

- Was that The Hitman? - Yeah, yes, ma'am.

Ms. Geri, that was Tommy "Hitman" Hearns.

Oh! Would I love to go on a few rides with him!

Now, careful, Ms. Geri, you gonna hurt yourself.

Mind your bald-headed business.

I'll take care of you like I did your big-headed buddy.

Uh, excuse me. Oh! Hey, hey, whoa! Hey, hey!

Hey! Hey, hey, hey! Hey, lady!

It's alright, it's alright. It's alright.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I got to catch up with The Hitman

Ooh, that's funny, I got a letter from a lady the other day

For that same thing.

Oh, excuse me. Um..

Yeah.

Oh, I'mma miss Martin.

You know, I gotta tell y'all somethin'.

Uh, first time he come in the barber shop

I was a little worried.

Well, I had to figure out how to navigate around him head.

You know, when Martin was a kid

they forgot to teach him three letters in the alphabet.

- Uh-huh? - The T, the I and the P.

Uh, till this very day

Martin still don't know the meanin' of tip.

But he better watch himself in LA

'cause those West Coast barbers don't play that.

Uh, sure you're right. That's right.

- I heard that. - Hey, Martin.

What's happenin'? What's happening, y'all?

Hey, y'all did all this for me?

- Yeah. - Yeah.

Oh, man, it's enough to make you emotional.

- Yeah. - You know what?

We just wanted to say congratulations, Martin

Alright, you two squabbling people.

Alright, Gina, alright, we all packed and ready for the movers.

Cool. Shanise, you're gonna let the movers in, right?

Oh, yeah, I'll let them in. Oh, and don't worry.

I won't let them take anything.

I'll handle it, I'll handle it.

Um, Shanise, they're movers.

They're supposed to take Martin and Gina's things.

- Oh. - Right.

Don't worry about that, Gina. I'll handle the movers.

Thank you, Tommy.

Martin, come on, baby. Let's go!

I'll meet you in the car, okay? We're gonna miss our flight.

- Let's go! - Oh, I'll help you.

Yo, G, I'll give you a hand.

You know, Flea Von Little won't be able

to carry this by himself.

Ha-ha-ha!

I heard that, scary Seinfeld.

Look, Martin.

Before you go, I just wanna let you know

that I really hate you.

And what I hate most about you is..

...is that you're leavin'.

Thank you.

Well, uh

anytime I guess she gives me a kiss goodbye

I guess it really means goodbye.

- I guess so. - So I guess this is it, huh?

I can't believe you're leavin', man.

You know, things ain't gonna be

the same without you.

I-i-it's not like it's the end. You know what I mean?

It's the start of a new beginnin'. For real, you know?

Better get to the airport, man.

Um, cool, I'll just, uh, I'll meet y'all downstairs

I got a little somethin' business.

Thank you.

Yeah.

Hm. Yeah.

Hey, you know, man, maybe I'mma do what Martin did.
