How long is this gonna take?

It could be
a couple of weeks.

Very frustrating.

Every day counts.

Bar Chix is supposed to open
in a couple of weeks,

but there is a lot
that needs to get done first.

I'm still gonna be biting
my nails until we launch.

You ain't pregnant,
are you?

- No. God, no.
- Let me see your stomach.

No babies.

I am running out of patience
with this damn engagement.

You're not...?

No, not-- no.

I might have to do
something drastic.

Okay,
what is the surprise?

You have to guess
what it is.

Okay, um, charades.
Two words.

- Dancing. Baby.
- Baby.

- Baby dance.
- No!

Okay, just tell us.

"Celebrity Family Feud"!

We're going against
Anthony Anderson.

Get ready to lose,
Anderson family.

"Family Feud"! Yeah!

♪ We are the Braxtons
and you'll see ♪

♪ That we are not like
an ordinary family ♪

♪ Toni, Traci,
Towanda, Trina ♪

♪ Tamar
and Miss E will ♪

♪ Teach you
a thing or two ♪

♪ On "Braxton
Family Values." ♪

- So nice to meet you.
-Hold the 'vator.

Man #2:
Girls, I can see that.
It's obvious.

Here we go.
Right that way, ladies.

So it's gonna be
quick up here.

- Okay.
- And welcome
to the "Feud."

- Thanks!
- Have a great time.

- We will.
- Go straight.

Yay.

We're about to play
"Celebrity Family Feud"

to help raise money
and awareness for Lupus LA.

It's a charity that's near
and dear to our family.

I'm a lupus survivor,
so it's super important
that we win today.

Well, plus losing's not
in our genes, so...

- I can't stand it.
-Listen, listen.

- I don't think
anyone likes losing.
- Listen to what I'm saying.

- I'm a sore loser.
- Me, too.

I'm extremely competitive,

so I really need
for all of my sisters

to really concentrate, please.

Uh-huh.

Because if not,
you owe me dinner.

I just wanna make sure

that all of my sisters
have their heads in the game,

especially Trina,
because she dropped the ball

when we did "Who Wants
to Be a Millionaire."

I was gonna say,
"Hey, we're not gonna do it.

We're gonna stop here."

And we would have
taken home $65,000

for Saving Our Daughters.

You're the one who said
"final answer."

- Don't talk to me, Trina.
- You said it.

I am still in my feelings,
because we could have won more,

and today I really think
that we need to bring it home.

We can't be known
as the "Braxton Losers
Family Values."

That's just not
gonna work for me.

- Hey, you.
- Carol, how you doing, baby?

This whose asses
we gonna kick,
sister-in-law.

Sister-in-law,
this whose ass
we gonna kick.

- Heh-hey.
- Hey, baby, how are you?

- I'm good.
- All right. Y'all go on
out there and get ready.

Come out and play.

Go on and get ready.
Go on and get ready.

- If I have to.
- It's prime time.

I thought it was,
but the producer said
too much side slit.

But they just had WWE,
and they had their
little things

and their boobs
were hanging out.

I want to distract
Anthony Anderson
with my cleavage,

but apparently it's too much
side boob showing,

so I have to put
a shirt on, a T-shirt on.

I guess we'll have to beat him
by actually playing the game.

Okay, we're so nervous.
What should we do?

Is there anything
that we should do before--

Well, see, let me
explain something to you.

There's nothing you can do
to prepare for this show.

Okay.

We're gonna ask you questions

that ain't got nothing
to do with nothing.

Matter of fact,
the more you know,

the more intelligent you are,

the worse you gonna be
at this game.

Really?!

So who in the family--

who's the crazy person
in the family?

Traci.

Wow, everybody pointed--
Traci, what--?

I don't know.
I don't understand it.
I don't.

That's when you know
you crazy--

when you crazy
and you don't know it.

It's Traci.

Like, who else
the crazy sister gonna be?

Ding, ding, Traci.
Number one answer.

Who do you think
will be the star player?

Well, Towanda has to be
one of the round players,

because she's the most
competitive out of everybody,

- and I think afterwards--
-

No!

- Lies.
Who told you that?
-Mm-mm.

- Wow.
-No,
you can't do that.

Boy, y'all just
shut her down.

They give you 25 seconds.
I could be the second person.

Five extra seconds.
That's what I need.

- Five extra seconds.
-No.

Well, we know Toni is incapable
of answering questions

fast enough
for the fast round,

so everybody knows
when it's time to play
that round,

you pick
the best two players.

That's gonna be me
and absolutely not Toni.

I might be
too analytical, though.

I don't wanna-- I may
think about it too much.

And then you
shut down, though.

No, I'll think about it,

'cause I'm thinking
in my head I need more time,

and they give you only
three seconds, right?
I might need five.

No, no, no, no, no.
Five seconds gets an X.

-Yes.
-Right!

Right? And I predict--
this is my prediction.

And I'm only saying this

because I know
that Anthony Anderson
is a complete idiot.

I think that you all
stand a very good chance

of winning this game.

- Whoo!
- Yay.

- I think so, too.
- Thank you so much.

Thank you.
Thank you.

All right, Trina.

Thank you.

I'm a little nervous,

because like
Steve Harvey said,

there's really no way
to prepare for the questions

that "Family Feud" asks.

But hopefully we can kick
the Anderson family's butt

and make lots of money
for Lupus LA.

Welcome to
"Celebrity Family Feud."

I'm your man,
Steve Harvey.

Let's play "Feud."

Give me Anthony,
give me Toni.

Name something
a nude magician

might pull
a rabbit out of.

Oh!

I said "hat," okay?
But it was too late.

- What are we gonna do?
- Play, play, play.

- We gonna play!
- They gonna play.

But then the Anderson family
got three strikes,

and now I have another chance
to answer the same question

and win this round.

All right, ladies.
Here we go.

Name something a nude magician
might pull a rabbit out of.

Toe-- feet.

- We didn't discuss that!
- No, not at all.

- Terrible--
- His feet?

They said,
"We didn't discuss that."

- At all!
- No, we didn't.

You pull a rabbit
out your feet!

Survey says...

Aw!

Like, "feet" is, like,
the worst possible answer
of all time.

But, you know, in spite
of Toni's horrible answer,

we won the game,
and now we get to go
to the fast money round.

Two players need to score
at least 200 points together

to win $25,000.

I went first,
and I got 99 points,

so now, Tamar, you need
to get 101 points.

Name something guys love to do
while watching the Super Bowl.

Eat.

- Try again.
- Drink beer.

Tell me a place
you find an aisle.

Uh, in a supermarket.

Name something guys love to do
while watching the Super Bowl.

You said...
drink beer.

All right, this is it.

All the money is riding
on my last answer,

and I need 36 points
to get to the 200.

Name a place where
you find an aisle.

You said "supermarket."
Survey said...

Oh, yeah!

Yay, we won! Oh, my God,
$25,000 for Lupus LA.

I'm so proud of my sisters.

We did great.

We're-- we're a great team.

I was-- I was a good
team leader, too.

♪ I love winning! ♪

I can't believe we won.

- What?
- Yes.

- I'm not surprised.
- What you mean you can't--

like, you can't believe it?
Like, we won it, too.

Well, we prayed-- we prayed
that we would win.

- Yeah.
- It was good.

It was amazing.

For a second,
it got a little scary.

Me, too.
We were like,

"If we don't
know what to say,
just say anything."

You said nothing first.

I think she was nervous,

because she was the first
person to go up.

And, you know, I mean,
I think it's typical Toni

to freeze up
when she's nervous.

I said "hat"
as the buzzer went off.

Oh!

It doesn't count when
you say it after the buzzer,

so, no,
you didn't say it, okay?

I said "hat,"
but I was confused.

Toni, why you--
Towanda will tell you.

She your right-hand girl.
Tell her.

Tell her.
What she say?

- Nothing.
- I said "hat."

- Okay.
- I already know this song.

- ♪ I said "hat." ♪
- ♪ I didn't answer at all. ♪

♪ I didn't answer
at all ♪

♪ Lord, did you see
my hands in the air? ♪

♪ But I didn't

♪ Well, I didn't

♪ But I did, y'all ♪

- ♪ I didn't answer at all ♪
- ♪ But I did, y'all ♪

♪ Well, I done seen

♪ But I ain't

♪ What'd you say?! ♪

♪ 'Cause I answered
at the end... ♪

-Lies.
-No, you didn't, Toni.

- Bunch of lies.
-♪ The buzzer
went off ♪

- ♪ And it didn't-- ♪
- ♪ No, she didn't ♪

♪ I said "hat"
in the end ♪

♪ In your dreams. ♪

But we won $25,000
for Lupus LA.

Yay!

Okay, I might have missed
an answer or two,

but at the end of the day,
we were able to win money
for a great cause,

and that was the most fun
we've had in a long time.

See, a family effort.

Yeah!
We came together.

Everybody was fantastic.

Oh, y'all tried it.

If it wasn't for me
and my "smarticsness"...

- Are you serious?
- Oh, y'all tried it.
Oh, stop.

Wait now, guys--

- This was a group effort.
- You said if it wasn't
for you?

Oh, so y'all not
gonna give it to me?

Wait, you said
if it wasn't for you?

Um, at the end.

Oh, if it wasn't
for you.

I brought it all home.

That's, like,
we're the Orioles,

and everybody
play the game.

Cal Ripken come out and, bam,
bring it all home.

I ain't bring it?
I brought it.

It was a team effort, everybody.

It was a team effort.

Oh, come on.
I'm LeBron James
right now, okay?

I'm Kobe Bryant.

I'm Magic Johnson
of "Family Feud."

I'm the MVP, okay?

Where's my jersey?

Needs to go up there.

Wait a minute.
Hold up, Trina.

When is the grand
opening for the bar?

I don't know.
You didn't tell us.

You know what?

Right now,
I'm not even focusing
on a date anymore,

'cause I want it
to be right.

Mm.

I don't wanna be
so hell bent on,

"I need to open this
by this date."

Well, give me
a proposed, like--

- the month--
- Not yet.

The month
of "not yet"?

I was planning to have
the grand opening in two weeks,

and I wanna be sure
that the bar will be
completely ready

and that I have
a top-notch staff,

but I'm still looking
for bartenders to hire,

and especially cocktails,

and the research for that
is super important for what
I'm trying to do.

So what's little Kevin
gonna do?

We don't-- I don't know
the ending to that.

Are they gonna
get married?

They still engaged.
That's the ending.

Kevin is what, 19?

He has a lot
ahead of him.

I hope, I pray,
that he does not
get married.

Amen.

I wanna get back
to Maryland,

'cause Kevin Jr.
is stressing me out.

I plan to convince Kevin Jr.
to call off this engagement.

He and his teenage fiancée

is getting closer
and closer than ever,

but I got a plan
to scare the bejeezus
out of them when I get home.

Watching you guys today,
working together--

look at you now.

- Hear, hear.
- Thank God for these
wonderful women.

- Look at us now.
-Clink, clink,
clink, clink.

"Braxton Family Values"!

Coming up on "Braxton
Family Values"...

If we gonna get married,
I can't do everything
by myself.

I hear the arguments
already.

I actually have
a big surprise for them.

Come on, what is that?
You gonna leave us with it?

Ooh, that's high.
Is it that high,
the way you playing it?

- Lies!
- That's definitely the key.

Who gonna sing that high?

You--

You-- you

You-- you have

You-- you have one

You-- you have one job.

You-- you have one job.
It's

You-- you have one job.
It's to

You-- you have one job.
It's to make

You-- you have one job.
It's to make the

You-- you have one job.
It's to make the meat.

- You have one job--
- I got all of this over here.

You gotta clean it up.
That's your job.

I ain't doing this.

You doing it.
Kevin, where are you going?

I'm gonna go back
to cutting stuff up.

- No, you're not.
- That's your job.

You have one job.
I can't do it.

If we gonna get married,
I can't do everything
by myself.

- That's not fair.
- It is fair.

No, it's not fair.

You supposed to be nice
and loving and help me.

This is stressing me out.

No, it's not.
You'll be all right.

Kevin Jr. and Oliviah
are always cooking
in my kitchen,

so I told them they had
to cook dinner for us tonight,

but I actually have
a big surprise for them.

Oh, look at the happy,
happy couple.

Hi.

-I got something
for y'all.
- What?

Come on,
what is that?

I got Junior Jr.
for y'all.

So now y'all have to, um...

cook and hold the baby
at the same time.

- Whose baby is that?
- So this is Junior Jr.

This is yours
and Kevin's baby.

My baby?
And Kevin's?

I'm making
Kevin Jr. and Oliviah

take care of this robo-baby.

It's basically a baby doll
that acts like a real baby.

It cries, it poops,
it keeps you up all night.

Let-- let's see
how they get along

when they have no sleep.

Look, it have a diaper
in here and everything.

This is your real-care baby.

I don't know
where you got it from,
but you gotta take it back.

Look, got y'all complexion
and everything.

Really?

Y'all gotta have this baby
for two-- for two days.

It's gonna be your
little homework, okay?

Two days with...?

Two days.
With Junior Jr.

Okay.

Our baby.

You the pappy.

Junior Jr.,

meet your mom
and your pappy.

Hold the baby head.
Gotta hold the baby head.

- Hold the head.
- Hold the head.

- You the pappy.
- Oh, I gotta do it?
Oh, thank you.

You the mammy.

And it has the bottle
and everything else in there.

So y'all have
the real baby
for two days.

This baby is used
for educational purposes.

There's a wristband
and a computer chip in the baby

that records
all the results.

It'll let us know
if we kill the fake baby.

And nobody wants
to kill fake Junior Jr.

-
Hold the head.
- Hold Junior Jr.

'Cause if it cry,
that's on you.

- Oh, that's nice.
- So that's your baby.

Be careful.
Don't you dare drop it.

Oh, don't forget
to stir the noodles.

You gonna
leave us with it?

Hold on.
I can't open the top
while holding the baby.

Here, I'll open the top
while you hold the baby.

You can't put the baby
on the counter!

I hear
the arguments already.

Now you know the stress
of new parents!

Can you hold it?

Kevin, I can't do this.
Can you hold it?

I'll do the sauce.
Can you hold the baby?

The baby wants you.
It doesn't like me.
It wants you.

Whoa, hold up.
Where's the baby
grandparents at?

Where's the baby's daddy?
Right here.

You the baby daddy.
There's your baby.
You hold it.

- There you go.
- Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

So how about you go find
your parents 'cause--

so they can
take that back?
Is that--

Kevin, you can't--
oh, my God.

You can't put the baby
on the counter.

- Why not?
- 'Cause you--

- How the baby
on the counter?
-Really?

-I didn't do it.
- By the knife?
On the counter?

Give me the baby.
Lord Jesus.

Finish cooking.
Give me the baby.

They had the baby
on the counter!

We need to eat.

Oh, my God.
They gonna kill
fake Junior Jr.

I'm going to slap the piss
out of that boy

if he doesn't start
taking this seriously.

This is not a joke.

This is a real fake baby!

I'ma take
Junior Jr. downstairs

so y'all can
finish cooking
so we can eat,

'cause y'all talking
too much over there.

Then y'all go put the baby
on the daggone counter.

How you gonna put the baby
on the counter, Kevin?

'Cause the baby
wasn't-- I mean--

That's baby cruelty.

I mean, hey, hey, hey,
what you gonna do about it?

- You gotta--
- Really? Really?

No, no,
I didn't mean it.

- You got the baby.
- You got the baby
in your hand.

You gonna put the baby
on the counter.

Really, Kevin?

You gonna get us killed.

Bar Chix bus!

Oh, we got a pole in here!

Towanda, make sure
no one gets on the pole.

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,
ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.

Oh, what, they got
a pole in here?

- Yeah.
- That's how
you sit down, Aja?

- That's how I sit down.
- I gotta spread first.

You don't know
who hands been on here.

See?

Can I get
some of that, too?

- Yeah, sure.
- Thank you.

You're just, like,
rolling on it.

Can you guys believe
we're here?

We're not on the tour bus.
It's being refurbished.

Um, I heard.

I heard about Aja and Seth

hooking up on
the Bar Chix tour bus,

but that
was a long time ago,

and none of that nonsense
is going on tonight.

We're doing research
for the bar, and that's it.

Well, the game plan
is we're just going to
hop a couple of bars,

just to-- we're not gonna
steal their drinks,

but we're just gonna get
some ideas for the bar,

and of course
we're gonna look and see

how they incorporate things,
the way their bar works.

We can take some pointers,
or "let's not do this,"

kind of thing, so...

What about that one girl?

You got her meeting you
at the bar?

Oh, there's a young lady
that's going to be meeting us.

I met her
at a bartending school.

But she seemed to have
a lot of potential.

Now, we're gonna be
good little bartenders

and bar boys-- bar chicks
and bar boys, right?

Yes, we are.

Why did you
look at me first?

Because we know you.

- Very confrontational.
-Let's work together.
Let's play nice.

Excuse me?
When have I ever been
confrontational with you?

- Not towards me,
but everyone else.
- Other girls.

I've seen firsthand

how Aja can be very
confrontational with
other women.

- I have a problem.
-I'm sorry?

Excuse me? Yes.

Okay, my-- my question is
are you just talking

or are you talking
directly to me?

Nah. Nah,-- that.

She tried me
on several occasions,

so but I had
to put my foot down
and let her know what's what,

so now we have
a nice understanding.

New faces are good.
Pretty new faces are good.

You're not here
to date people, Aja.

We're here to have bartenders
who know what they're doing

and who's going to represent
the bar well, and--

They still have
to be attractive.

I wish it were
more of a clear night
instead of all this rain.

But, you know,
knowing Aja,

she'll turn it into
a wet T-shirt contest
or something, so...

Very true.

I'm gonna need
for Seth and Aja to act
like professionals.

I don't want potential
new bar staff

thinking that I run
a loose ship.

They have to take
their job seriously

or my business will suffer
and they'll be fired.

We're gonna play nice
with others

and just have a good time.

What's a prewash?

Vince, you know
how to do this?
Can you help me?

- I wanna wash my jeans
and my favorite pajamas.
- Put 'em on "colors."

But it's not colors.
It's jean colors.

Well, it wouldn't
be whites.

Well, it wouldn't
be colors.

Colors is, like,
multiple-- like--

But jeans are a color.
I mean, they're blue.

I think you're wrong
about that.

"Sanitize."
I don't wanna do that.

"Sanitize" is, like, for what?
Like rags and stuff?

What's "options"?
Options to do what?

Okay, do you know
how to wash clothes, Damon?

- Absolutely.
- You do?

- Yeah.
- Is jeans "colors"
or "normal"?

- They're colors.
- Oh!

- Well, what
makes them colors?
- 'Cause they blue.

Oh, okay.

-I told you that.
- Is blue a color?

Mixed colors.

So Damon is over to help me
with this arrangement
for one of my songs,

and thank God he is,

because he can help me
with my laundry.

I mean, do I look like
I can use a washing machine?

No.
What is that?

-And what's
the temperature?
-Cold.

Press start.

It's good to go now.

Why suddenly so--

- There you go.
-There you go.

It's all a computer now.

You gotta just
hit one button
and you good to go.

Oh, that was easy.
I can wash my own clothes now.

-There you go.
- I'm lying.

Everybody is loving my new
single, "If I Don't Have You,"

so I'm so excited
to be working with Damon,

half of the producing team
of The Underdogs.

Now, we about to come up
with a special arrangement

for one of my
live performances.

- What part is that?
- "If I Don't Have You."

It's near that
"If..."

Ooh, that's high.
Is it that high,
the way you playing it?

- Lies!
- This is the key
of the song.

Who gonna sing that high?

That's the key
of the song.

Yeah, that's the key
of the song.

I'm not gonna be able
to make that.

That's really high.

If I sing
"All the Way Home"
and then that...

I mean, for real, Damon
just needs to stick with
helping me with this laundry,

because I don't feel
like singing that high.

I mean, I ain't fixin'
to blow out my vocal cords.

I ain't got time
for that today.

Yeah, that's definitely
the key.

Coming up on
"Braxton Family Values"...

Vince, you can't give us
a snippet of the video?

I mean,
it ain't ready yet.

I know you have it.
I know you have it.

Oh, my God.

You wanna keep
your work environment

drama- and stress-free.

- That was drama for you?
- For her.

Oh, oh, okay.

Aja seems to be getting
just a little too territorial.

I hope this doesn't
get ugly.

I don't know what
I've gotten myself into.

You

You supposed

You supposed to

You supposed to be

You supposed to be
on

You supposed to be
on your

You supposed to be
on your best

You supposed to be
on your best behavior.

We started
this bar hopping early

because it usually gets
really crowded at night.

I am always down
with helping Trina

when it comes
to trying out cocktails,
'cause they're delicious.

What are we drinking
today, Trina?

I don't know.
I need to see a drink menu.

Ooh, okay, guys.
I want you to pace
yourselves, okay?

The creamsicle is actually
one of my specialties.

Really?
I might have to try that.

- I think I want
something to--
-Hey, Trina.

Hi, Shari.

- How are you?
- Good to see you again.

Good to see you, too.
This is my friend Rachel.

- Hi, Rachel.
My sister Towanda.
- Hi, Towanda. How are you?

Shari is a bartender
I met recently,

and I'm really thinking
about hiring her.

Shari brought her friend,
Rachel, who's also a bartender,

and she is super cute,
and that's great

because I'm still looking
to fill eight bartender slots.

So the more options,
the better.

Where are you from?

Illinois, originally.
I live here now, though.

- How long have you
lived in Atlanta?
- Like, five years.

Oh, I worked
at, like, Five Aces

where one night I was,
like, so disgusted.

It was like, "I cannot
do this Peasantry stuff
compared to I.V."

And so, then I started
doing Big Sky stuff,

which was hilarious,
because...

Aja seems to be
getting just a little
too territorial with Rachel,

so Rachel better watch out,

because she doesn't know
what she's stepping into.

Aja knows she needs to be
on her best behavior,

but I hope
this doesn't get ugly.

Is that a promise ring?

No. Oh, my gosh.
Left hand.

Well, I know it's, like,
the ring finger.

I didn't know
if, like, on the right
it signified anything.

I'm about to take it off.

I hate to break up
the flirting situation.

Thank you.

However, I wanna
go ahead and give a toast

to Bar Chix, to Trina,
and to the new bar people,
potentially, Trini.

Bar chicks and bar boys.

Bar people, yes.

- Potential bar people.
- For citing the facts,
thank you, Towanda.

- Cheers.
- Clink, clink,
clink, clink, clink.

Give me some love.
Don't spill it.

Okay, let's hit
the next bar, Trina.

I'm ready to have
another drink.

You pay this round and then
I'll pay at the next place.

Why I gotta pay, then?

What? What? What?
I'm paying for six drinks?

What-- what the hell, Trina?

Really? I thought
I was coming to help.

Yes.

Mm-hmm.

I saw that Seth was flirting,
and that got on her nerves.

Well, because do you remember
when we did the Grammy party...

- Yes.
- Seth and Aja hooked up.

Yes, they hooked up.

- Oh, hooked up.
- Yes.

But did you hear
when you was like,

"Okay, I hate to stop
the flirting session,"
Aja was like, "Uh, yeah"?

Yeah.
I was wondering
why she said--

Let's go. Come on.
'Cause I don't wanna
leave them alone for so long.

- Come on.
- Okay.

- Did you pay the tab?
- I did.

- Whoo-hoo!
- Shut up, Trina.

Wait, I'm having
just a little sip,

'cause I don't like to drink
in front of my staff.

Okay.

Chug-a-lug, chug-a-lug,
chug-a, chug-a, chug-a-lug.

Chug-a-lug. Choo-choo!
Ch-ch, choo-choo!

- Okay, let's go.
- Okay.

Okay.
How's my breath?

- It smells purpley.
- Oh, okay.

I'm not gonna be able
to make that.

That's really high.

This is the key
of the song.

What part do you
want us to focus on?

Doing, like,
a verse and a chorus?

- Yeah.
- And a verse and a chorus?

Yes.

I mean, it's so high,

it's different than
"All the Way Home."

Yeah.

Well,
I just don't remember
recording the record

singing that high.

I mean, I was really
in my feelings,

so, you know,
I wasn't thinking about,

"Dang, that thing
high, honey.

Am I gonna
be able to do this
every night?"

♪ 'Cause you know
if I don't have you ♪

♪ I can't love no more ♪

♪ If I don't have you... ♪

♪ I'll be worth
fighting for ♪

♪ I'll tear down
these walls ♪

♪ That's on my life ♪

♪ I'll lose my mind
if I don't have you. ♪

Beautiful.

It's always
a little different.

Like, once you sing
a song in the studio,
then you sing it live,

it's like a different
record, right?

No question.

I mean, I kind of felt like
that key was a little high,

but once I started
singing, honey,

I sounded like
a nightingale, okay?

My Tamar-tian friends
are really gonna like
this arrangement

when I perform it live.

Yay.

Ooh, I can't wait.
I'm "nerv-excited"
about that, too.

- I wanna see it.
- Have he told you about
the treatment at all?

He didn't tell me
anything.

The video is about
me and my homegirls
in a brothel, right?

- Ah!
- Yes.

I been kicking it
with this one dude,

because I feel like
we in a relationship,

but then he shows me that
we are not in a relationship.

He's just my John.

My mother's in the brothel,
but she's not necessarily--

I'm gonna beat
both of y'all.

- Y'all sinning.
- Okay, listen.

Okay, don't you know how,
like, "The Great Gatsby"

and, like, "Harlem Nights"

with, you know,
the mother hen...?

Vince, you can't give us
a snippet of the video?

We can't see
none of the video?

I know you have it.
I know you have it.

Nah. I mean,
it ain't ready yet.

I cannot wait to see this video
for "If I Don't Have You,"

but I'm super nervous
about my mama,

because I don't know
how she gonna react,

because it's taking place
in a brothel, honey.

- So we're good.
- Okay.

Yeah.

Where is my money?

I knew--
how can you say it?

Singing the song.

Bye, Vince.

I gave you Logan.

The research part
of this adventure
is going pretty well,

but introducing
the potential bartenders

to the veteran bar chicks

isn't going as smoothly
as I anticipated.

You never been
to a pole-dancing class?

- No, I need to.
- I had a blast.
I just can't twerk.

You know how to twerk?

- Me?
- Yeah.

- Yes. You wanna see?
- No.

You gonna
have to show me.

I'm not getting up
to twerk.

Trina, we all know
you can shake that thing.

I'ma leave that at home.

But you do wanna
see your boss twerk,

but it's not professional.

There's that gray line
about fraternizing and
sexual harassment.

It's more like
a dotted line
for you, Seth.

Those spaces in between.

You wanna keep
your work environment
drama- and stress-free.

So you think
that was drama for you?

Not for me.
For-- for her.

Wow.

I've learned
that you don't crap
where you eat,

because you end up
eating crap.

These are supposed
to be my veterans,

and they're acting
like hormonal teenagers

in front of people
that they just met.

Aja has that look
in her eye,

and this is gonna
get really bad.

Is this always
gonna be like this?

Seth, Aja:
No!

We're just having
a conversation.

- Is that what that is?
- This is a heated debate.

- This is how
you have a conversation?
- Yes, this is how.

- Ooh! Sexual tension.
-I'm chillin'.

- Absolutely no--
- Cut it with a knife, right?

Absolutely
no sexual tension.

- How are you today?
- Ooh, well, calm down.

- Oh!
- Wow, that fast, right?

- Okay.
- I'm just changing--

- I'm changing the subject.
- All right, great!

I'm turning my attentions
somewhere else.

Oh, my God.
I think we're at our next bar.

Ages ago.
Ages.

Enough to be forgotten.

Forgettable, rememberable.

Oh, oh, okay.
Oh, oh, okay.

This is going
way to the left.

Professionalism.
Hello.

We're not gonna have
that conversation,

'cause we're not gonna--
this is the real world,

so I'm not gonna
put your-- out there.

Right.
Right, Seth.
Please.

I've worked with Seth and Aja
for almost two years,

and I've never
seen them like this.

I'm kind of in shock.
Like, speechless.

They're supposed to be
setting an example
for my new staff,

setting the bar,
and this is not it.

I don't know what
I've gotten myself into.

That is hilarious.

Coming up on
"Braxton Family Values"...

I'm trying to wait for me.
I'm trying to be patient.

What, you want me
to fast forward to your part?

- That would be nice.
- You tried it?

- Yeah.
- So you don't wanna see me
in my music video.

Oh.

Okay,

Okay, it's

Okay, it's "flow-acious,"

Okay, it's "flow-acious,"
honey.

She got that good
Malaysian hair.

You can still get a good
pack hair and add it in.

I don't even know
what any of that means.

I'm still doing
my satellite radio show.
Yes, honey.

We about to start
a two-hour live show
in about five minutes.

- And you didn't
even invite us?
- Screaming like a girl.

- That's so disrespectful.
- Now, see, first of all--

What's that?

- I can't--
- Take him where?

- I can't right now.
- I'm working.

- Oliviah's at work.
- How you gonna go in my job?

Take the baby.

We're going live
on the air in two minutes,

and Kevin bring
damn Junior Jr. up in here.

This is some bull!

- Thank you.
- This is not kosher.

- This is so disrespectful.
- Thank you.

I told you you're
too young to be parents.

What-- what the hell
just happened, Traci?

What

What the

What the hell

What the hell
just

What the hell
just happened,

What the hell
just happened, Traci?

- Kevin and Oliviah
is engaged.
- Right.

So I said,
"Well, since y'all
getting engaged,

y'all might as well
have a baby."

So I gave him a baby,
her and him a baby.

But you gonna drop
the baby off to me?

I am not a babysitter.

I'm a professional.
I got jobs now.

And being a grandmamma
isn't one of 'em.

How long have
they had the baby?

- Only a day.
- A day?

- Yes!
- Uh-uh, and he just
dropped the baby off.

Yo, so, Kevin
couldn't handle a day?
Like, really?

One day.

Here you go.
Go to your godmother,
Junior Jr.

I mean, it really proves
your point, Trace.

It really proves your point
that he's not ready.

Right.
They don't need
to get married.

- That he's not ready yet.
- They not ready.

And then they not--
they saying they not
having sex,

but they been together
for four years.

Somebody's chafed.

Somebody has to use
Desitin between they legs
or something like that.

I don't believe it.

I'm going to send Junior Jr.
back to the factory,

because I didn't do this
to put more stress on me.

I knew they wouldn't
be able to handle real
adult responsibilities,

but now I have proof.

This is the "Traci Takeover"
plus one.

One the radio
with the baby.

- On the radio, right.
- I can't believe this.

On my job.

Thanks, Traci.

I gotta call my son.

He needs to come
and get this baby.

- Hey, love.
- Right here?

- I'll sit here.
- And I'll sit here.

Ooh.

How y'all doing?

- What's up, man?
- Y'all all right?

Chillin', man.
Chillin'.

What's your special?
Do you have a menu?

I'll take-- I'll take
a gang-bang tonight.

- Hey, Trina.
How you doing?
- Hi, Michael.

- Long time.
- How are you, love?

Good, good.
I'd like you to meet
my friend Jess right here.

Hi, Jessica. Trina.
Nice to meet you.

Michael really caught my eye
at the bartending school

with his mixology knowledge.

'Cause I do a lot more
craft bartending

and molecular mixology,

so I like to do, like,
advanced presentations.

I like to do menus.
I do menus for a lot
of places I've worked for.

And I think he'd be a great
addition to the bar boys.

He's young,
he's attractive,

and he's really easy
to get along with.

We should do
some shots right now.

Oh, I don't think
that's something

that I wanna just kinda
delve into at hello.

-You bartend, too?
- I do bartend.

- Nice.
- In the Bahamas
and whatnot.

I'm from the Bahamas
and that, so...

I just moved
to Atlanta, you know.

Take your hood off.
Let's get a good look.

I don't wanna let
my pretty hair loose.

We need to get
a good look, right?

Yes!
Eye candy.

Why were you hiding that?

Oh!

Michael could give Seth
some healthy competition.

Not only will my customers
get exotic premium liquors,

imported beers,
and fine wines,

but also the hottest,
the most talented bar boys
in Atlanta.

- I think I saw a dance floor
when we first came in.
- I'm a lightweight.

Towanda got them dance moves.
Y'all don't even know.

We're gonna let these people
get gang-banged.

Let's get gang-banged,
bitches!

Who else getting
gang-banged?

- Hey, Mama.
- Hey, little lady.
How are you?

What you doing, beautiful?
Yes, your face is-- mwah, mwah.

I can't even kiss you,
it's so dusty.

I know, girl.
Don't I look good?

- Yeah, you do.
- I know, I know. You, too.

- Bless your heart.
- You enjoy this?

- Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
- I'm glad. Thank you.

Oh, I finally got my hands

on my soon-to-be,
hopefully-number-one
music video,

"If I Don't Have You,"

and I do not know how
my mom is gonna react
to the brothel concept,

but, baby, I love it.

I wanted you
to see yourself
in my new video

before you see it
for a premiere.

Let me see it.

You dusty then
and you're dusty now.

No, girl.
Tell me your plan.
Is it all of that?

Yes. And I don't mean, like,
"dusty" as in ashy, old.

I mean like, yes,
face come through.

I was so honored that
Tamar asked me to be
in her music video.

It was so fun to shoot
and everyone looked so pretty.

I can't wait
to see the video,

but I'm sure
it turned out beautiful.

What, you want me

- You tried it.

So you don't wanna see me
in my music video,

just the part
that you wanted--

You know
I want to see you.

- Oh.
- But you said you
want me to see me.

Well, it's not
gonna fast forward.

Oh, okay.
I can wait.
I got patience.

You tried it
a little bit.

Coming up on
"Braxton Family Values"...

Well, you know,
that's what they used
to do in a brothel, Mom.

You had me in what?

I don't think so, Tami.
Should have told me.

You better run.

- A brothel.

Oh.

Oh, child,
Mama definitely
doesn't get it.

Like, "Yes, Evelyn, you are
in a brothel, darling."

I was a little upset.
I'm like, "Wait a minute."

And then I look like

because I'm the oldest one
in there?

I don't think so, Tami.
Should have told me.

I mean, I hope she not,
you know, too upset about,

you know,
her being in a brothel.

It's not like she playing
a ho or nothing.

I'm playing the ho.

You just, you know,
the ho's-- ho friend.

Wait a minute.

You got me in a video
in a house of ill repute?

Is that what it is?

I-- I didn't know
it was a whorehouse.

Who knew?
You had me in what?

Wait a minute.
You better run.

How I'm gonna get you
a stepfather like that,
in a whorehouse?

Well, that way he know
what you doing.

- Tamar.
- Ma'am.

Girl...

Clearly Aja
is being inappropriate
on the dance floor

just to make Seth jealous.

This turned into complete
and utter drunken debauchery.

Both the veterans
and the newbies are
out of control.

And Towanda,
"the responsible one,"

is absolutely no help.

I don't know if Michael
is being serious or not

when he's talking about
"linking,"

and I'm not quite sure
what "linking" means.

You know what I mean?
I might have to ask him.

Child...

Child, why don't you go
and dance with the girls?

There's a lot of potential
in this group,

but if they're gonna behave
like they did tonight,

that could be
a complete fiasco.

But I'm not gonna
confront them right now,

because they've clearly
had way too many drinks.

If I hire these guys,

I definitely need
to set some boundaries.

This cannot be going on.
Not in my bar.
