I'm here to ask you...

...to leave Martin alone.

Oh, no, not again.

When you figure out
what you actually want,

give me a call.

I still look good.

That is how I remember it.

I mean, I'm not asking
if I'm pretty. I know that.

I'm asking if I'm self-centered.

You'll have to
teach me sometime.

You think you'll
have any time left to play

after you decide which one of my
daughters you're sleeping with?

Make sure Laura Peterson
is safe at all times.

Miss Dupree,
it would be a pleasure.

Welcome to WinterFest.

You want us to move in together?

Where did that even come from?

After that incredible weekend
we spent away together,

you're asking me that?

Ah, it was so romantic.

It was like
the whole world evaporated.

Getting to wake up in your arms,

having all those hours
alone together.

It could be like that every
day, Kat, and every night.

But let's be real.

As wonderful as vacation was,

it's very different
from normal life.

Chelsea and I are in constant
ChelseaKat mode,

which is why we moved
into the studio together.

And you're trying
to make partner.

That's why it makes
so much sense.

If we live together,
we'd see each other a lot more.

You must have thought about it.

Look, I do love you.

And I'm always hype
when I get to see you.

I just hadn't
gone there yet, in my mind.

Well...

Catch up.

What do people do at this thing?
I've never been before.

Neither have I,
but I've been checking it out.

There's an ice skating rink.

Cold, slippery-- not my thing.

Have you ever even tried it?

When I was a kid.

Okay, well, then you have
to give it another shot.

And you'll love this-- you can
take a picture with Santa.

Pass.

There's an amazing choir
outside singing carols.

Yeah, I heard them.

They sound good.
I heard them on the way in.

So far, the only thing
I'm into is seeing you.

The real goal is to get
people to drop serious cash.

There's gonna be a live auction
with ginormous prizes,

like a, oh, fancy weekend
at a ski resort.

Not in my budget.

Not in mine either.

But there's also gonna be
a silent auction, too,

You know, with smaller prizes.

I think I might bid on a signed
Wizards basketball for my mom.

Where's all the money go?

Charity, yeah.

This year,
the proceeds are gonna

help fund mental health care
for musicians.

It's gonna be in honor of my
grandmother, Barbara Mitchell.

-Wait, for real?
-Yeah.

She founded the Articulettes
but left the group

before they made it big.

Her story is really sad, but

it's a nice thing that
the Duprees are trying

to make something positive
out of it.

A hot cocoa for you
with marshmallow.

The best part.

Izaiah.

-Good to see you again.
-You too.

There you are, beauty.

Looks amazing.

-How's it going?
-Couldn't be better.

So I guess you decided
to go solo after all.

Not quite.

Hey.

Mother, I would like
you to meet Dr. Kial Rollins.

Mrs. Dupree,
a pleasure to meet you.

I was just telling Nicole

this event has exceeded
my expectation.

It's phenomenal.

♪ ♪

I can never be in
the same place as Leslie

-without being a little jittery.
-You are well

within your rights
to feel that way.

You suffered a lot
at that woman's hands.

Hey, Laura.

Why don't you stop
by my law offices tomorrow?

If we can document
that Leslie's harassing you,

we might be able to get you
a peace order

barring her from contacting you.

What's that?

It's what we call it in
Maryland.

It's sort of
like a protective order.

But you don't have
to be domestic partners.

I just want to be left alone.

Marcel, excuse me.

Two of my guests have arrived.
See you in a minute.

Hello.

Don't you look beautiful?

So do the two of you.

Oh, thank you again
for personally inviting me.

I've heard so
much about WinterFest

over the years,
but I've never been.

The light show, the choir,

and that dusting of snow
in the front walkway was...

I've never seen anything
like it, just, oh, spectacular.

Uh-oh, okay.

Excuse me, a sponsor's work
is never finished.

Let's go check
out the food booths.

I had no idea that
she was gonna be here.

-My baby girl.
-Hi, Dad.

Mwah.

-And my new son-in-law.
-Sir.

-Where's Mother?
-Good question.

She could be checking out
the silent auction.

I haven't had a chance
to check it out myself yet.

Shall we?

We shall.

Where'd you disappear to?

Powder and lipstick, honey.

Takes a little more these days.

-Would you like a drink?
-I would love...

[conversation continues
indistinctly]

WinterFest
is growing in popularity.

We've never had this
many high-end donations before.

Look at this.
Dinner for two at Obelisk.

I've heard
it is not to be missed.

Um, tell me about yourself.

Um...

Two kids, orthopedic surgeon.

You think Shanice didn't
already give me the lowdown?

I'm looking for something
a little bit more

than a Google search
would deliver.

Despite my day job,
I've never broken a bone.

So then you are not
a risk taker.

Let's just say
I'm extremely lucky.

What don't most
people know about you?

Uh, that I absolutely
love horror movies.

There's not enough psychological
thrills in your day job?

Which is why I tend
to go towards slasher films.

They hit a little
less closer to home.

-Hm.
-Any special skills?

Keen sense of observation.

I noticed that

you're worried
about your friend over there.

-Sorry.
-No.

Don't apologize
for being a good person.

Why don't you go over there
and check on her?

-How about you?
-I'm gonna be

right over here.

Just give me a look.

I'll come running.

Thanks, Kial.

Hello, friend.

Oh, hi, Nicole. Lovely event.

Are you not gonna
ask me about my date?

Sorry, I didn't
realize you came with...

Who did you come
with, exactly?

His name is Kial.

Why don't you, um,
go outside for a walk with us?

Third wheel's not on my bingo
card for tonight. Go, enjoy.

So you're just gonna sit here?

I'm actually sort of expecting--

hoping--
someone will meet me here.

Joey Armstrong.

I don't have to justify my
relationships to you, Nicole.

So it is a relationship.

Yes, and if anyone takes issue
with that, it's their problem.

If you need me,
you know where to find me.

No, I didn't end up
going to WinterFest.

Mom will be okay.

But you know
what that means I can do?

Pick up some comfort food
and bring it home to you.

Okay, cool.

I didn't mean for that
to take so long.

No worries.

I know better than to come
between you and your cousin.

Oh, does that mean I can bring
Chelsea along when we move in?

So is that a yes?

I was just joking.

And quite frankly, I thought
you were joking at first.

We haven't
been together very long.

It's been long enough
for me to realize

I want a future with you.

And I was hoping
you felt the same way.

Hey, bro, I was going
to introduce you

to a new friend, Eva Thomas.

But I think you might
already be acquainted.

We're acquainted, but hopefully
this time you're not on duty.

Just so you know,
anything you say

can still be used against you
in a court of law.

He's kidding.

Naomi.

Hayley, I'm surprised
to see you here.

Why? I'm a member
of this community, too.

Well, my dad is busy emceeing,

and you don't really have
any friends in this crowd.

More than you know.

Now that Dani's remarried
and looking happy,

people don't see me as
Hayley the homewrecker anymore,

since everything
worked out for the best.

Maybe you'll see that too,
one day.

Oh, you think I'll be grateful

that you used my friendship
to infiltrate my family,

seduce my father and
publicly humiliate my mother?

Okay, yeah. Go with that.

Excuse me, bartender,

please don't serve this woman
any alcohol.

She's obviously
already high on something.

Thank you.

I'm so freaking fed up
with that family.

We are so pleased
to have you here.

I hope you're enjoying yourself.

Your place looks incredible,
inside and out.

You have totally
outdone yourself.

As have you.
The brows are fantastic.

You are truly a genius,

-darling Damone.
-Thank you.

And as someone whose career
is focused on faces,

I can honestly say
that I am a Damone Roberts fan.

Especially because
you make my job

a hell of a lot easier.

I told you this once in L.A.,

and I'll tell you again, Dani,
this husband: everything.

I completely agree.

Yeah. Okay,
Nicole's signaling me.

Congratulations again
on your stellar event.

-Enjoy.
-Bye.

I know.

Well, you, my dear,

have outdone yourself
with the live auction.

And your photo session

you donated
to the silent auction

started a bidding war.

I bid on it myself.

I think I might need
some new headshots.

You know that I would be honored
to photograph you at any time.

Is there something you needed?

Yeah, just to let you know,

I did sound check for the main
event, so, uh, we're all set.

Well, that's great to hear.
Have you seen

the ice sculpture?

It is spectacular.
Come with me.

There you are. Everything okay?

Yeah, sure.

Everything's great.

And then Santa said,

"You know, I'm looking
for a new Mrs. Claus"

-and slipped me
his phone number.
-Oh!

And exactly what area code
is the North Pole?

We need more storage space
for the donated toys,

because they're overflowing
in the donation bins, okay?

I work for the Duprees,
not you, sorry.

I am a sponsor at this event.

You may have come
into some money,

but you're still a low-rent
man-stealer in my book.

Are these ladies bothering you?

Oh, no, it's fine.

They seem to have lost sight

of why we're all here--

to help the less fortunate.

MARCEL:
It's probably best
if you all moved on.

-Gladly.
-Very.

Thank you for
coming to my defense.

I know that you are
working security but

I can't help but notice
how you've

been spending so much time
hovering around little ol' me.

Can you blame me?

-The way you look?
-Okay.

I see you, charmer.

Gonna have to watch out
for you, mister man.

I wonder what that's about.

Who is that guy?

I don't know,
but at least he's not my dad,

so that's a good thing.

Hi, sissy. You okay?

Yeah, I was just deciding
whether I should up my bid

on the cooking lessons for two
in the silent auction.

Hilarious.

So...

So?

What's with this tall drink
of water

who's been on your arm
all night?

Don't think I haven't noticed.

-Friend of a friend.
-Hm, they never look like that.

He's hot. Go, Nicole.

Go, sissy. Get your groove on.

It is wonderful
to see you this happy again.

Different from last year, huh?

I think Bill had moved out

months ago and was
engaged to Hayley,

but they hadn't gone public yet.

So here we are at WinterFest,
just going through the motions.

Bill's glad-handing and I have
this frozen fake smile.

That was hell.

But you said I'd survive.

And come out even stronger
on the other side.

And you know what?

You were right.

I was also wrong
about you and Andre.

I didn't give the two of you
enough credit.

There was genuine affection
and caring there,

and that deepened into love.

I am sorry that I assumed

the two of you were just
using each other.

I hope you will forgive me.

Of course I do.

-[phone chimes]
-Oh, uh... [exclaims]

Darn. Someone outbid me.

Okay, hold that thought.
I just have to up my bid.

JOEY:
Well, hello, beautiful.

I was hoping to get you
to join me at WinterFest.

Well, you didn't,

because of all the reasons
we discussed.

It's one thing
for people to know

that you're my real estate agent
and partner,

but if they knew
you were my lover,

your reputation would suffer,
personally and professionally.

VANESSA:
I'm a single woman now.

I was looking forward to being

open about our relationship,
propriety be damned.

Trust me on this, Vanessa,
it's better to play it safe.

I can tell you're disappointed.

I just thought you'd be
as excited as I am

to step things up
with our relationship.

This is already the most serious
relationship I've ever been in.

I think it would be a good idea
for us to take our time.

You're not
feeling insecure about

the feelings
I have for you, right?

I know you're into me.

Well, you would be
very right about that.

I don't understand.

What's this about for you.
Why the rush?

It blows me away
how this event gets

more spectacular
every single year.

I don't know how your family's
gonna outdo this.

I mean, the front gate alone

made me feel like
I was entering Disney World.

Oh, rushing off to go tubing?

In this outfit? I think not.

Jacob was just looking for you.

Oh, which way did he go?

Uh... there.

Ashley, hang with me for a sec.
We should talk.

Mom.

I don't bite.

Okay, I won't bite.

It's okay, Naomi.

Okay, so I guess Andre told you
about his conversation with me.

Which one?

Look, I didn't get
the impression that...

I mean, I-I didn't think

-that your marriage was...
-Solid.

Right.

With the whole just jet-setting
off to Vegas thing

and getting married by

someone impersonating
your mother, I mean,

it just didn't
seem serious to me.

I get it.

Our marriage is not typical.

But Andre made it very clear
that he is in love with you.

And I totally respect that.

Okay.

Okay?

Yep.
Just wanted to clear the air.

What'd you think
I was gonna do?

Well, we are at the same club

where you pulled a gun at
Bill and Hayley's wedding, so...

You are not Hayley.

And Andre sure isn't
Bill Hamilton, thank God.

No.

Andre has a lot of integrity.

He's a good man.

And him loving you...

You're really lucky.

I'm well aware.

We figured it out--
this event is like you.

Uh-oh, I'm almost afraid
to ask you to elaborate on that.

Like you,
it's elegant, generous...

And really, really beautiful.

I get misty
when I think about Barbara

and all the good
you'll be able to do

with the money
you're raising in her name.

That makes all this
even more meaningful.

And you have just
given me inspiration

how to kick off my speech
to start the live auction.

I'm gonna share

why it matters so much to me
to honor our friend.

Oh, Lord, I know
I'm about to get emotional.

Barbara would be as
proud of you tonight as we are.

We're gonna grab our seats

and sit right out front.

If you need moral support,
you just look at us.

We got you.

-That's right.
-Thank you.

Your friends
are 100% on target.

You overheard all that?

You have done something
extraordinary here, love.

Turned your grief and remorse

into a force
for healing and compassion.

That's a rare and remarkable
kind of magic.

You are my rock, Vernon Dupree.

And to think I was worried
that you would think less of me

once you heard the whole story.

You never need
to worry about that.

Every day, I find
new reasons to admire you.

Look, I want everything
you want, you know.

Just maybe not as fast.

If you slow your roll a little,

we'll both get what we want.

I'll hold you to that.

Tell Chelsea I hope
she feels better soon.

You're leaving already?

You might be able
to miss WinterFest,

but I need to be there.

It's a prime
networking opportunity.

Lots of influential people
in that crowd,

including most
of the firm's partners.

Glad I could get a couple
of minutes alone with you.

You didn't have to disappear
when Izaiah showed up, okay?

You're not just my dad.
You're my date.

So, where'd he go?

To try out
those peppermint churros.

What have you been doing?

Looking at auction prizes
you might like.

A trip to New York Fashion Week,

donated by
Dani's modeling agency.

I think you've got me confused
with your other daughter.

-Yeah.
-Ah. Wine of the week.

Not sure my boss will like me
coming into work

after trying to finish off
all those bottles.

Oh, how about a walk-on role

on that new soap?

You'd be great.

Me, act?
You're cray.

My life is already soapy enough,
and I'm fine just being me.

Besides, you don't need
to give me another present, Dad.

You've already given
me a beautiful scarf,

and you've given me
the one thing I've been missing

my entire life:
spending time with my father.

Nothing on that list
can top that.

-Yeah?
-Yeah. Champagne?

Yeah.

Hey, lovely. What are you up to?

Shh. Vernon and Sharon
are coming.

I can't do it now.

I need more time to prepare.

Vernon, you are as ready
as you'll ever be.

Is this your way of saying
that you can't

go through with this at all?

Tonight is so important
to Anita.

It would be cruel
to ruin it for her.

Curious.
What'd you just overhear

that made you so excited?

Well...

there's a scandal brewing

that's gonna rock the very
foundations of this community,

and I'm here for it.

But you--

well, you wouldn't think
anything of that, right?

That's nothing to you,
I mean, compared

to what you must see
every day on the job.

Gosh, you must have tons

of stories, and I am very
interested to hear all of them.

So, you get to move around
in polite society

after trying to kill someone.
Twice.

You too, for that matter.

-Pardon me for a moment.
-Uh-huh.

Are you okay?

No, I got stood up.

Well, Joe is just
playing it smart.

He...

he doesn't want
you two going jail.

-Mm-hmm.
-LESLIE: Teddy!

Hey, are you having
a nice evening here?

"Teddy, are you
having a nice evening?"

I am. I-I brought Eva.

She's never been to

-an event like this.
-Mm-hmm.

That's actually really sweet.

Girls need their daddies.

Uh, V-Vanessa, how about, uh,
you and I go for a walk, huh?

Get some fresh air, huh?

I would love to.
If you'll excuse us.

Hi.

I don't mean to intrude
on your evening,

but do you remember me?

Miss Richardson.

How could I ever forget
a lovely young lady

who turned to me
in her hour of need?

And you helped
when you didn't have to.

Thanks for coming through
with the information

we needed to find Chelsea
when she was missing.

How's she doing?

Oh, well, she's got a miserable
cold right now,

but otherwise,
things are pretty normal.

It's terrifying to think how
things could have turned out.

Your cousin
is lucky to have you.

And to have fortune on her side.

You sound like the Buddha.

So I've been told.

Now, um...

Uh, I won't keep you.

Thank you, again.

Of course.

Ah, glad to see
I'm not the only one

who gets bored with
all this speechifying.

Take my advice--

don't marry
into a political family.

Technically, you didn't actually
marry to the Dupree family.

Mm, I don't think so either, but
it sure feels like it sometimes.

I wasn't expecting
to see you here.

I wasn't expecting to come.
Jacob invited me.

And you always do what
your big brother tells you?

Hardly ever.

Then what was the draw?

The skating rink
is basically empty

since all the muckety-mucks
are headed to the auction.

Perfect time for a beginner
to try it out.

I don't know, I don't want
to fall on my backside.

I promise to hold your hand
and keep you vertical.

Have you met Hayley Hamilton?

Oh, no, I haven't.
But I've heard a lot about you.

Likewise.

Would you like to skate, too?

Oh, no, thank you,
there are some things

I want to bid on at the auction.

-We'll catch you around.
-Mm-hmm.

Have you seen Bill?

He's with Dani.

The legendary

Anita Williams Dupree?!

Keke Wyatt?

-You look stunning.
-So do you.

I'm a big fan.

-Oh, the feeling is mutual.
-Oh...

We are so honored
to have you here at WinterFest.

If I had known
you were coming...

That's on me.
I had a show in Bethesda

when I heard about the cause.

Mental health services
for musicians.

Honey, I know
nothing in this world

would keep me from attending,
so here I am.

How would you like
to do more than that?

I haven't had a chance
to tally it yet,

but I'm pretty sure that we
broke some records

with that auction.

Yeah, well, Dani,
you were a terrific auctioneer.

And you were a great emcee,
as always.

Thanks for, uh,
goading your golf buddies

into making higher bids.
Made a huge difference.

Yeah. You know, it kind of felt
like old times, didn't it?

You know, Bill, actually,

I was thinking
the exact opposite.

To me, everything feels new.
Easier.

I mean, it's obviously different
from last year

when I was utterly miserable,
but even before that,

we'd come to these things

and you'd flirt with
some random woman

and my gut would clench
because...

because I didn't know
if it was nothing

or if you slept with her

or maybe you just wanted
to sleep with her....

-Hey, what-what's
happening here?
-Don't worry,

don't worry.

I'm not saying any of this
to make you feel guilty.

I'm not even angry anymore.

I'm just happier than
I ever thought I'd be again.

And there are possibilities
that I never even imagined.

And there's my husband.

Creator of so many
of those possibilities.

Excuse me.

Damn. Girl, you killed
in there tonight.

You were the perfect emcee.

Thanks, babe.

So, um, you ready
to blow this place?

You want to leave? Yes, yes.

Great, um,
let me go get the things

that I won
at the silent auction, okay?

And I must have
put my purse down somewhere.

Okay, well,
I'll get the auction items.

Okay.

I'm afraid this night
did not go as Vanessa had hoped.

Aw, don't worry.
Eva and I can get her home.

I'd appreciate that.

Eva seemed to really
enjoy herself tonight.

We had a great time.
It meant a lot.

I miss Kat being here, though.

Yeah, me too.

I appreciate you being
so cool with me bringing Eva.

-Of course.
-I'm sorry

to interrupt, but some bad news.

I was outbid for
the dinner for two at Obelisk.

Somebody paid more than
twice what it's worth.

Ooh, that's a shame.

Ted Richardson.
It's good to see you again.

Kial Rollins.

Been a minute, man.

The last time
I saw you was, uh...

when?

Uh, conference
on orthoplastic surgery

-in Denver.
-Kial told me

-you traveled
in similar circuits.
-Yeah.

Hi. I've got some silent auction
cards for you lucky winners.

Here you are,
a dinner for two at Obelisk.

-Oh, thank you.
-Mm-hmm.

Congrats. You must
really love that place

to pay twice what it's worth.

Uh, never been, actually.

Well, enjoy.

I was the one that
donated the gift card.

I feel so bad.

You fell after I promised
I wouldn't let you.

You're never
gonna trust me again.

-Oof.
-What's wrong?

I'm trying to not make
the obvious pun here

for falling for you,
but I-- it's right there.

It's right on the tip
of my tongue.

Be strong. I believe in you.

-I believe in-- no, no.
-I got to say it.

Aw, aren't they just adorable?

Who knows--

maybe your favorite outlaw

just might become
your favorite in-law.

And you, Pepé Le Pew,

you picked the wrong sister.

Ooh, Vernon! Hi.

Yeah, well, listen,
I want you to be rest assured

that you are going to have
at least one person

in your corner
when the shoe drops.

Yeah, in the end, you know,

you reap what you sow.

Even if that reaping
just takes its sweet old time.

I have no earthly idea
what you're talking about.

And frankly, my dear,

I don't give a damn.

What in the blue blazes?

Lord, give me strength.

ANITA:
Ladies and gentlemen, may
I have your attention, please?

May I have your attention?
Thank you, thank you so much.

We have a very special guest
this evening.

I would like to introduce

my fellow soul sister,

the incomparable

Keke Wyatt!

Whoa!

Hey, Keke.

Sweetheart, you made the night
as our auctioneer. Brava.

You're praising me?

That Keke Wyatt surprise
was the showstopper.

-Well, let's call it a tie.
-All right.

You'd better treat
that woman right.

Some of us don't
have to be reminded.

I finally found my purse.
We can leave now.

-Sorry to keep you waiting.
-You are worth the wait.

Aw.

I can hardly believe it.
Everything went so smoothly.

I just wanted to
say good night, baby girl.

You're leaving?

-With him?
-The gentleman

was kind enough
to escort me to my car.

And nowhere else?

Mind your own beeswax.

Night, night, Izaiah.

KIAL:
Do you moonlight
as a mixologist?

There's a lot about me
people don't know.

It really was
a lovely evening, wasn't it?

-You seem surprised.
-I am.

Mm.

Uh, it's just, when Shanice

mentioned the country club,
a charity event, a psychiatrist,

is my next option
doing the dishes?

Shanice wouldn't take no
for an answer.

Oh, you met the woman?

You surprise me.

You don't just do the glam.

Wait to receive
the polite accolades.

You do the work.

I saw the way you commanded the
entire room tonight, it was...

It was sexy as hell.

I must admit, I do love
a little bit of glam.

Well, it was an honor
to be on your arm tonight.

Pleasure was all mine.

Again?

Maybe.

Well, I'll call.

And surprise me with a yes.

I will show myself out.
Thank you.

Gran, this was
the best WinterFest yet.

It really was.
I mean, every year I think

you can't possibly top
what you did the year before,

-but you always do.
-Thank you, Jacob.

I mean, people we've never met

are gonna have their lives
turned around by the work

-you both did here tonight.
-Mm-hmm.

I am so proud
to be your granddaughter.

Aw.

-Thank you.
-Of course.

-Get home safe.
-I will. Night, Granddad.

Well, I don't see that

look of satisfaction
of a job well done.

More like relief
from a bullet dodged.

-Leslie.
-Mm.

She made for a tense WinterFest.

But on to happy holidays.

The happiest.
