Aaron and I decided to move to Seattle together.

[All] What?

[Karen] Previously on Sistas .

-You're not losing me. -You could just stay.

I support whatever is best for you and Faith.

We'll always be sistas, forever.

I don't know what the -- you want,

but I don't want your dirty money.

It's clean.

You guys can trace it back to the bank.

-Andi? -Officer Green.

You wouldn't happen to be single, would you?

Actually, I am single.

I know someone who's interested. Me.

You know what I'm trying to figure out, though, Gary?

Why you trying to be so nice?

Ever since I've known you, you've only been about Gary.

Always been on some ulterior motive type shit.

Exactly. Are you dying or something?

Are you trying to get right with God?

Exactly what is your angle, Gary?

-I know y'all don't believe me. -We don't.

And I've done some terrible things, OK?

[Zac] You have.

-Yes. And honestly, I was... -Lowdown.

-A thief. -Despicable.

Yes. All of that.

What? Did you go to, like, 12 steps for assholes of something?

I'm not buying this.

Let's just say I stared death in the face

one too many times lately.

And I woke up the next morning and realized

that I've been given a second chance. A third chance, really.

And I don't want to move like that anymore.

Underneath all the lying and manipulation

and the violence and the money stealing and...

I was a deeply, deeply unhappy man.

And...

I don't want to live like that anymore.

Is it just me, or is this new version of Gary even scarier?

-Diabolical. -Right?

Listen. I'm not here to gain your trust or your forgiveness.

I'm here to express my regret and my gratitude.

Zac, you saved my life.

-Don't, no I did not. -I gotta thank you for that.

First of all, I wasn't trying. Don't appreciate me.

-I was trying to save Andi. -[Gary] You saved my life.

And stop saying that. I get mad every time you say that.

-Can I hit him one time, please? -No... mm-mm.

-I can't hit him one time? -Babe, look at this.

Don't tell me you're buying this. You're not buying this.

Look, I'm just trying to see this from all angles, OK?

Look, this is legit.

I'm not trying to be in bed with this -- no further pause.

Zac, you don't have to be, OK?

Listen, I can draft up a document

to dissolve all dealings with your business and his,

but this is legit.

[Gary] Consider it done.

Whatever you need to feel more comfortable,

and make it official, I'll do it.

Well, clearly I ain't getting no money out of this.

So, if y'all want to do me a favor,

y'all can get the hell out.

Head to Waffle House or something.

I can hit him , though, right? At least once.

Zac, let's just try to stay out of jail tonight.

-I can't hit nobody? -We got the money, let's go.

[mellow instrumental music]

Oh, a bitch can't catch a break.

What the...

Baby.

-Ooh, I'm back. -[smacks Danni's backside]

What the -- is wrong with you?

Come on, don't tell me you're still pissed about the lube.

Yeah, but that can wait. My money's missing.

Where's my phone? I think maintenance was in here today.

[Tony] Danni.

[Danni] Can I see your phone? I can't find my phone.

Danni, your money's not missing, all right?

Yes, it... It's not missing? It's missing.

Danni, listen to me. It's not missing, all right?

-[Danni] I don't know-- -Hey, I borrowed it.

♪ My girls hold me down

when them boys mess around ♪

♪ When my love life

is a headache ♪

♪ We're goin' out tonight ♪

♪ 'Cause I'm lookin' for love ♪

[phone rings]

Hey, girl.

Hey. I was just calling to check in on you.

I'm fine. I just, I can't believe Karen's leaving.

Yeah, I know.

Our sister circle's

getting smaller.

It's gonna get smaller than that.

I don't know how much longer I can take Danni's ass.

I get it, Andi. I know that Danni was being--

A bitch, right?

I was gonna use the word "abrasive", but...

You know what? It doesn't even matter.

And as a matter of fact,

Dr. Vaughn is on his way over right now.

OK, Andi. I see. Is it gonna be dinner?

Followed with some wine? And some passionate sex?

I don't know. I just...

-What's going on? What's wrong? -I mean, I was fine until...

Danni had you second guessing?

Yes. And I'm thinking, is she right about me having a roster?

Who cares? OK? There's nothing wrong with having a roster.

You don't think I'm a hoe, do you?

Mm-mm. No, Andi. I just...

I just think you're in your 'Unapologetically You' era.

You know?

Like, no one can tell you

who you should love,

especially not

who you should sleep with.

That's the way I feel, but it's so hard

when one of your closest friends is calling you out

in that spectacularly unfiltered way that Danni does it.

Yeah, look, I know.

You know I don't like to get in between you two

when you guys are going through this.

But you're not wrong. She was coming off a little judgy.

Oh, you say judgy. I say hypocritical,

especially with that train station of a bed she has.

I don't know. She just makes it hard

to want to confide in her about things.

Yeah, I get it.

Do you think I should sleep with Dr. Vaughn?

I mean, Andi, no one can tell you this.

This is really up to you. I will say this, though.

Don't let Danni have anything

to do with your decisions.

[sighs] You're right, girl. Thank you.

I'm gonna get going. He should be here soon.

All right. Well, I love you. Have fun, but be safe.

-OK. Bye. -Bye.

[intriguing instrumental music]

OK, how did he tell me how to pose?

Let's see if he likes this.

-Look at Peach's eyes! -[entrance bell rings]

-Woo! -[Karen] Hello?

I am not riding the clock.

Ooh, bitch, you ran like that was Mister in Color Purple .

Blink twice if you being abused.

-[Karen] Hey, Maurice. -[Maurice] Hey, bitch.

Looks like you got a fresh lineup.

Well, you know what they say.

A fresh lineup makes the -- line up.

I know that's right.

I was just getting to those supplies right after...

Finish looking through the comments, right?

Oh!

♪ Pamela's in trouble

and her booty is double ♪

[Karen] Not today. Not today.

Good girl, because today has been a day.

No, I just came in to, um, to thank you.

Thank me for what?

Pam, for holding things down, as best you can,

because I know it's been tough

having a boss that's out of commission.

For a boss, yes, it's been very tough.

But for a friend, never a problem.

Mm. Well, I came to tell you something.

I knew you was being nice. You came to fire me?

No, not at all! But, you know, I do have news.

OK.

So, Maurice, I'm glad you're here, too.

As you both know, it ain't been easy for me lately.

Mm. Yeah, I know. I've heard, and I'm so sorry.

Thank you.

I just been so tired of it all, you know?

So... I'm leaving.

We moving to Seattle.

-See-what-tle? -[Karen] Seattle.

Oh, that's stupid, friend.

Why would you go to a place like that?

-Are you sleepless? -What?

It's bland there, vanilla. It's bland like hospital food.

It ain't that bad, OK? It just seems like

it's the place that we supposed to be right now.

It's best for us.

I mean, if that's what you want. What about Roots to Riches?

Well, I'll still be a part of it, you know?

But just like, a silent partner.

-Mm. And the salon? -Yeah.

Well, I'ma sell it.

Would either of you like to buy it?

-[Pam] Well... -Hm?

Pam's Fresh Start does have a ring to it.

[Maurice] Mm. Mm-mm.

Maurice's Fresh Start. Now that's powerful.

[Pam] Whatever.

I ain't even got the capital. Not yet, anyway.

Me neither, bitch. Ever since I stopped shaking ass

and I started counting cash at the bank, I been broke.

[Pam] Yeah.

Guess I'ma have to look for another job.

[Karen] No, you don't know that yet.

Yeah, the new owners will keep you on.

You know almost every... most things about this place.

Y'all don't even have to worry about me,

'cause Pam always comes out on top.

-[Maurice] I know that's right. -I'm really happy for you.

Me too, Karen.

Well, thank y'all. And I hope you're both free tomorrow.

I want to get everybody together.

I'm free.

Hell yes. I have a leather dress I have been waiting to wear.

And oh, my God. How about a pregame at my house before?

Oh, I would love that, Maurice.

Let me let the girls know, see what they say.

[Maurice] Please do.

Do you got room in that little-ass apartment?

You live in a one-bedroom in Bankhead, Cheetah Girl.

-I'ma head out. -Touché.

OK, Tony. Um...

You've officially lost your mind.

Look, don't spaz out on me, all right?

I just needed to borrow it.

Tony, when you borrow something without asking permission,

that's called stealing. And that's some broke-ass shit.

Whoa, time out. No one's broke, all right?

Plus, I'm still working on my severance from the airline.

I don't care what your reasons are.

Look, I was gonna replace it first thing in the morning.

And I can't even believe you acting like that over ten racks.

Ten racks when you just got that entire settlement?

How dare you? Why are you in my pockets?

And I don't care if it's 10K or $10,

you don't just take people's shit, Tony!

Look, I was in a bit of a bind.

How? You were the VP of an airline less than a week ago!

Huh? What are you spending your money on,

besides unnecessary -- lube?

Don't tell me. You spent my money on that?

Does that even matter?

You're right.

I need to know what's going on, right now.

Why did you steal from me?

Ugh, I didn't steal. I borrowed--

-You stole! -Look...

Was it for your child support, huh?

Them little crumb snatchers of yours?

I see where they get it from.

OK. Let's chill on calling the kids names, all right? But yes.

Let me tell you. Just help me understand.

How is it you knocked a bitch up ten years ago

and now I'm out 10K? What I had to do with it?

Look, Danni, it wasn't all for them.

Oh, really? What else did you spend it on?

I had to pay a gambling debt.

[elevator bell dings]

-Damn. Perfection. -I aim to please.

Well, then Andi, you have hit the target.

Thank you. Oh, please.

[instrumental R&B music]

How was the rest of your day?

It was a day. It was gratifying, but exhausting.

I mean, there's never a dull day on the maternity ward.

-I've seen it. -How was your day?

It was a day.

I can't say it was gratifying, but definitely exhausting.

Yeah. You know, I noticed when I was leaving

that things with you and your mom were pretty tense.

Was I the only one who was mortified?

No. I mean, of all the things for her to walk in on.

I mean, it could have been worse.

Oh, please.

If it was worse, she would have passed out in the hallway.

No, thank you. Please.

My mom's traditional and conservative.

Yeah. I mean, there was a lot of judgment in those eyes.

She's not staying with you, is she?

No. Thank God. She's staying with my aunt Myra, so...

You know what? Um, if you will excuse me,

I need to change into something a bit more comfortable.

Oh, well, don't let me stop you.

OK. I'll be right back.

Yo, Hayden looked like he was living his nightmare.

I mean, he did have three people

that have threatened his life at some point.

I mean, that's what you get for being so slimy.

But let me find out

that you got a soft spot for Gary Marshall Waters.

G--...

Did you just call me... Wow! Look, see?

-I didn't mean it. -OK.

Babe, you know that is not true. Look, seriously.

I just think his past finally caught up with him.

But look, he owed you that money.

He did. But if I ever see that -- again,

-it'll be too soon. -I have a feeling we won't.

Ooh.

-Damn, your shit loud. -Don't, don't do that.

What happened? Seeing them made you nauseous?

No. I'm embarrassed to say, but I'm hungry.

What's embarrassing about that?

Babe, I have eaten six times today.

So? Yo, don't be depriving my son, yo.

He in there trying to grow elbows and shoulders

and knees like his pops, yo.

Listen, we both eating for two now.

And I ain't never turned down no Waffle House, so...

Oh, we both eating for two?

Last time I checked, I was the only one eating for two.

But I do appreciate the solidarity, babe.

I do.

Mm. You little devil. But no, seriously.

If you're hungry, you hungry. I don't mind stopping.

Yeah, well, if we're gonna go somewhere,

let's just get something healthy.

I haven't exactly been eating good today.

-I know the right spot. -OK.

[sultry R&B music]

It's perfect.

-[blows candle out] -No, no, no.

No. No. No romance. No romance. OK.

[glasses clink together]

Just don't...

Shh.

Mm-hmm.

-Yes. -[puts bottle on table]

Yeah. OK.

[sighs]

Rules.

Number one. No romance.

-This is gonna be easy. -[knock on door]

Coming!

OK.

-Damn, you look sexy. -[Sabrina] Thank you. Come in.

-[sniffs] -Something burning?

Um, no. I was just... It was just a candle.

-Oh, word? -[Sabrina] Mm-hmm.

You know, I wouldn't mind

seeing your gorgeous skin under the candlelight.

-Let's sit for a minute. -Fine.

You know, I'm surprised you texted me back.

I know I'm not exactly boyfriend material.

Well, that's the thing. I'm not really looking for a boyfriend.

And you have a certain skill set that I like.

But I feel like we need to set some ground rules.

You know, for this situation-ship.

I just never had--

A sneaky link, yeah, I know. I can tell you're new to it.

I got just the thing that'll calm you down.

Oh. Hey, baby. Look, mom's home.

-[Karen] Hi, my baby! -Mom's home, baby.

-Hi. Oh. -So how was dinner?

[Karen sighs]

Did the ladies take the news well?

Yeah. Mm-hmm. After I answered about a billion questions

and heeded off a few fights.

That bad, huh?

I don't know. I think it was just the shock, but umm...

Seems like Andi and Danni

are really beefing about something for real.

You know, Danni seems like she just...

rotates between being pissed off at each of you.

Oh, don't talk about my girl like that.

But... True.

[laughs]

Anyway, what have you two been up to?

Oh, man. You know, I've just been here

taking care of this little love bug.

Huh, baby? We've been hanging out.

Though I did reach out to a colleague of mine.

His name is Derek, and we went to seminary school together.

So he now stays in Seattle

and works with this Christian nonprofit out there.

And?

And they have a new position open

that he thinks I would be perfect for.

Oh my gosh. Congratulations, Aaron.

I'm so happy for you.

-Happy for us. -Well, yes.

Happy for us. When do you interview?

Well, here's the thing. He was so excited with my inquiry

that he convinced the team to hire me on the spot.

-Well, that would mean... -Yeah.

It would mean that I would start training in a week.

I mean, it's just that I didn't expect to move so quick.

Yeah. Yeah, I know. Um, and I'm obviously gonna imagine

your sistas won't be too happy with this news, either.

This ain't about them. It's about us.

So, um, I mean, we don't have a place. Where would we even stay?

I have some good news on that front, also.

It seems they have some rentals available

for new recruits who are relocating.

-That is quite a perk. -It is.

Yeah. Um, so, what do you think?

Do I take it? Do I tell them no?

Tell them yes. I'll be ready.

Are you sure? Because you don't just have to say that.

Like, I know this is a lot, right?

Like, getting everything settled here,

and us preparing for a move, right?

In the span of a week? I mean...

If you feel like we're moving too fast,

and I don't just mean with the move,

I mean me and you, you tell me.

Aaron.

You're my person.

OK? Where you go, I go.

There's no more too fast for us. It's just us.

-I love you so much, Karen. -I love you, too.

[Andi] Uh...

-Oh... -[dialing phone]

OK, I am leaving you a voice note, Sabrina,

because not only has Danni ruined my dinner,

she has ruined my evening.

OK, you're right.

No one can tell me if I should sleep with Dr. Vaughn or not.

Not even Danni.

But I'm having a hard time deciding if I should or not.

OK, call me back, girl. Bye.

-[Vaughn] Andi? Everything OK? -Yes.

I'm just deciding what to wear.

[Vaughn] Well, if nothing comes to mind,

I'm good with that, too.

[laughs] I bet.

-I'll be right out. -[Vaughn] All right.

I don't...

It's just something that I do to blow off a little steam.

It's a hobby.

Hobby?

If a hobby got you stealing,

you might want to pick up knitting or some shit.

Look, I was going to put the money back

first thing in the morning.

I went over my ATM limits, OK? That's it.

Nothing like this has ever happened before.

-Says every addict ever. -I'm not an addict.

You stole money off of somebody's coffee table,

but you don't think you have a problem?

You don't think you're an addict?

I borrowed, and no, I'm not an addict.

The only problem I ever had with it is over. It's paid.

I can't believe what I'm hearing.

I can't believe you are justifying yourself.

Look, I'm not an addict, all right? Come on.

You know sports is my thing, and I'm really good at it.

-Um... -[Tony] Mostly.

So, how long have you had this hobby, huh?

How much money have you lost?

This is the most I've lost at one time.

I've been sports betting off and on since college, so...

-Since college? -[Tony] Yeah.

Somehow, this has never come up.

I mean...

I mean, it's never really involved you and I, so...

Until you did involve me,

when you stole my money to pay your gambling debt.

And now, you're acting like I'm crazy, or I'm overreacting.

I want to reiterate again that I borrowed it,

and I never said you were crazy, but you are overreacting.

[Tony] I'm giving the money back.

You know, Tony, this has been too much.

This is... This is... This is too much. This is too much.

-What's too much? -You. All of this. You know?

Because you Mr. Fix-It when it comes to me and everybody else.

You enrolled me in a leadership program at work.

Leadership program? You bringing that up again?

-Oh, yeah. -[Tony] Oh, man.

And then, you know, just all in my business

about my journey with Cretia.

And "Are you getting over your vices?"

OK, so we're keeping score now, that's what you're doing.

Then you buy lube for a problem that you make my problem,

when it could be you. We don't talk about it.

And then, you got my house a mess,

smelling like corn chips and Chinese food.

And you asked to move in here

because you need to rent out your house for income,

because you quit your job without having a plan.

-I have a plan. -You don't have a plan.

But you used my money for your child support,

and to pay your gambling debt.

I think it's time you start fixing yourself.

Let me just level with you for a minute.

Do you wanna know why

I wanted to rent out my house and move in?

Sure.

Look, the child support usually comes out of my check,

but, you know, obviously I missed the last payment.

And then with the gambling, it's...

I just feel like I hit an unlucky streak, but...

This can't continue. I know I'm due a win. I'm due a win.

[Tony] Yeah.

From the mouth of an addict. You are an addict.

I'm not an addict. It's just something I do for fun.

-That's it. -Fun?

You about to be without a house and a home, you dummy.

My uncle was a gambling addict. And, um...

They lost everything.

I'm not letting you take me down with you.

So what are you saying?

[dramatic instrumental music]

-[Tony] Danni! -That's what I'm saying.

Danni, come on.

-Wait. -Get your hands off me.

[object hits ground in hallway]

All right, fine. I'm leaving.

Leave the key.

-[Key hits ground] -There.

You can take this with you.

You're gonna need it a lot more than me.

[Rich] Thank you. Hey, y'all have a wonderful night.

-Hey, Fatima. How you doing? -Good. How you doing, Rich?

[Rich] I'm all right. I'm all right.

What's up, boy?

Yo! Well, if it isn't my favorite drinking buddy.

-[Rich laughs] -[Zac] Ha, ha, ha...

[Zac] Why you got to do that, man?

-Yo! Yo, you all right? -[Zac] Yeah, I'm fine.

You tried to drink up all the bourbon in the damn bar.

Just going through some stuff. It's OK.

But you know what? Thank you for helping me get home.

I owe you one.

Yo, it's no problem. I mean, except for your singing.

Oh, I didn't hear about that part.

[Rich] Oh, you didn't hear?

Your man was singing Respect

at the top of his lungs.

Off note, off key, off rhythm. You know, next time,

how about we leave that one to Ms. Franklin, all right?

Yeah, I got something for you. I was going through some things.

[Rich] Clearly.

All right, so what brings y'all in here?

The baby is hungry. I know you're about to close, but...

OK, say less, I got just the thing.

I call it Baby Mama Banana.

We got bananas, obviously, little strawberries,

little chia seeds, some flax, and some organic honey.

-Oh, that sounds amazing. -All right, we'll take two.

All right, say less, I got you.

Yes, we don't worry, Zac junior.

Daddy is not going to let your mommy starve you.

No, he's not.

-I'm not starving the baby. -No, you better not.

Yo, any luck with Sabrina?

Nah, man, nah, she's still really pissed at me.

Yo, let me ask y'all two something, OK?

I know y'all had y'all ups and downs,

but y'all still found a way to make it work. How?

Well, in my vast experience of mess-ups,

it is better to not mess up in the first place.

And baby, you learned the hard way.

All right. I mean, but honestly,

there's got to be something I can do, right?

You know what? You helped me out, I'll help you out.

Son, I got the master plan to help you get your girl back.

-[Rich] All right. -You do.

You still here, right?

Yes, I do. I got you. Trust me, I got you.

[Rich] All right, all right.

So what is this master plan, Zac?

You ain't gotta worry about all that.

Just know that I used to be a little Cupid back in my day,

you feel me?

Back in your day?

Yeah, I'm not no more. It's all about me and you now.

Look, I got to give it to you, Rich.

Most guys would have just moved on.

It's clear that you really have feelings for Sabrina.

Thanks. Yeah, but...

Look, I just can't stop thinking about her.

I can't stop thinking about how much I hurt her,

and how lonely she must feel right now.

[instrumental R&Bmusic]

So what's these you got hiding under this monk robe?

Oh, something special for later.

Something later? Why not now?

Because we have to lay these ground rules down.

Look, what I got right here will have us laying across the couch.

Yeah, I told you I have to work tomorrow.

Maybe another time. OK?

But after you have me laying across this couch, what's next?

Then I'm going to take this heavy-ass robe off you.

Well, it's warm.

Hey baby doll, I can keep you warm.

OK.

No pet names, OK?

I got you, my bad. I forgot about the rule number...

-Which one was it again? -Five.

-OK. -That's right.

We have a few more to jot down.

No, no, no, I got it, I got it, I got it.

-No romance. -No romance.

-Just hot. -Mm-hmm.

Animal...

-Sex... -OK, OK, I forgot the rules.

-Oh. -[Andi] Hi.

Uh...

-Is everything OK? -[Vaughn] Yeah.

Yeah, no, I just, um, you're wearing a different kind

of comfortable than I thought you would.

I was thinking a little lounge.

Um, could you do me a favor and grab some tea I made for us?

Yeah, come on. Mm-hmm.

-OK. -Yeah, thanks.

[Vaughn] When did you even make these?

Oh, I have a timer. It's a whole thing.

-I... -[Andi] It's gourmet.

-OK. -[Andi] Yeah.

-Are you, uh, you feeling OK? -Yeah, I'm feeling great.

You know, I am a doctor.

You can, uh, tell me where it hurts.

I was, um, hoping that we could maybe take it slow.

I mean, there's no rush, right?

Right.

Good.

So, uh, what do you want to do?

We can, uh, watch a movie,

finish that fantastic bottle of wine.

Mm, yes. Or, um, we can enjoy this gourmet tea

-and talk about the case. -The case?

The Dr. Cruise case?

-Oh, the case. -Yeah. Yeah.

[Andi] I thought you forgot for a moment.

No, I guess I just, um, I'm in a different headspace, you know?

Mm. It's probably the wine. Try the tea.

Um, so, what I wanted to discuss was how

I'm having a real block with finding witnesses,

but my best friend, she was mentioning a woman's group,

-and she was saying that-- -Actually...

-[Andi] What's wrong? -Nothing.

Do you want me to make some coffee? I can.

No, no. It's fine. I just, um...

To be honest, I've been at the hospital

for the last 24 hours,

and I've helped six women deliver nine babies,

so the idea of talking about work, just, uh...

What do you say we call it a night?

-Uh, only if you're sure. -I'm sure.

Yeah. I mean, I just... I'll call you tomorrow.

OK.

-Well, you know I could... -Mm.

[Andi] Nope?

[phone rings]

What does this -- want?

The hell do you want?

[Tony] I returned

your damn money.

Good. That's good.

Saves me a trip from having to beat you over the head.

[phone rings]

I know he's not calling me from another number.

What do you want now?

-[Officer Green] Well, damn.

-Who is this?

[Green] It's

your favorite police officer.

Oh, hey.

[Green] Oh. Were you

expecting someone else?

It's not worth mentioning. Um...

It's kind of late, but what do you want?

[Green] You.

[instrumental R&B music]

-Whoo! -Mama, you startled me.

Were you expecting someone else?

No.

Good. Because the only things open at this hour

are legs and the emergency room.

Um, I thought you were staying at Aunt Myra's?

I thought you had a date with Dr. Demon.

I did. His name is Dr. Vaughn, actually.

Oh.

We ended the night early.

Well, I must say that I'm surprised, because earlier,

the two of you were wrapped around each other like snakes.

Hardly. What happened with Aunt Myra's house?

Girl, Aunt Myra's gonna have me

sleeping on flea market sheets with a low thread count.

And let's not even talk about the decor.

Fake flowers, dusty pillows, and a TV with an antenna.

Oh. Oh, that's bad.

Oh, I got something for you, boo. Here.

"Walk in the spirit,

and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh."

-Galatians 5:16. Yes. -Yes. Thanks, Mommy.

You're welcome.

-It's a great gift. -You're welcome.

Oh.

Bye.

You sure you don't want to stay for round three?

No, I'ma head out.

And plus, I don't want to break your rule number,

-which one was it again? Uh, 36. -Whatever. Will I see you soon?

Yeah, I'ma hit you up. Can you send me

another one of those pictures that I like tomorrow?

Maybe I will.

Oh, and Roc, just keep this between us?

Don't tell that certain cousin of yours.

-It's our little secret. -[Sabrina] Thank you.

-Peace out. -Bye.

[romantic instrumental music]

[phone rings]

So I see you couldn't wait. Changed your mind, huh?

-[Damany] How'd you know?

-What? Uh, Damany?

Why are you calling

me this late?

Look, Sabrina, I made a terrible mistake.

Look, I shouldn't have given you my sperm.

I shouldn't have donated it.

I need you to

get rid of the embryos.

[baby cries quietly]

[Karen] How can you smile at me like that

when don't even know me. Hm?

It's because she recognizes your voice.

What do you mean?

For nine months, your voice,

your heartbeat, that was her whole world.

So of course she recognizes you.

-[Aaron] Yeah. -That's sweet. Thank you.

Yeah.

This. This right here.

What?

This is it. This is all I need.

You, me, Faith.

Nothing else matters except for this.

Except for us. Everything else is just noise.

I finally understand that now.

Mmm...

I don't think you do.

-Excuse me? -I don't. I don't.

-Really? -Mm-hmm.

Karen, I don't think you realize just how deeply,

how irrevocably in love with you I am.

Every single day, whether it goes right or goes wrong--

OK, come on.

--is the best day of my life.

You see, that's the love I'm trying to deserve.

For you and Faith.

And to see you, such a good man,

become a father for the first time.

And I've just been...

hiding away.

I'm so sorry.

-No. -I am.

Hey, listen. You've been grieving. OK?

You don't owe me an apology.

I got enough space in my heart for every single version of you.

When I look at you, I don't see grief.

I don't see troubles.

I just see you. Karen.

My Karen.

-That's sweet. Thank you. -You're welcome.

And I want to spend the rest of my life

making you happy.

Aaron...

Oh my God...

Karen, will you marry me?

Are you sure about this?

[Sabrina] Next on Sistas .

Reconsider and get rid of the embryos.

Those are my embryos, and I'm not going to discard them.

I'm in a relationship. I don't cheat.

-I don't care. -I am Hayden Moss.

-He's kinda cute. He single? -I think he's gay.

Your dad left Atlanta about ten years ago.

And the deadbeat didn't even think to reach out.

So this is her?
