Oh, look. It's LeBron James.

Ha! Very funny.

Is the hamstring
still bothering you?

Well, it was getting better,

but, uh, standing in the OR
for hours didn't help.

I still can't believe

there was a basketball court
full of doctors

and not a single one of you
thought to stretch

before playing full-out.

Well, it was supposed to be

a friendly, easy-going game,

but, uh, who knew it'd basically
turn into a cage match?

You invited
your ex-wife's current lovers

to compete against each other.

What else would you expect?

Hmm.

-[humming]
-[soft knock at door]

One minute.

-Hey.
-Hey.

What is all this?

Samantha and Tyrell's
cotillion shoes.

Trust me, they are going to want

to start wearing them
around the house

and breaking them in.

Otherwise, it is blister city

and a ruined debut.

Thank you for bringing those,

but Martin and I had it handled.

You didn't have
to go out of your way.

Supporting my grandchildren
is never an inconvenience.

Uh-huh.

Are you sure that's all this is?

Okay, fine.
Samantha called me.

She said that
you have been working a lot

and was worried
that you wouldn't remember.

Think about it
from her point of view.

Sure, I've been locked into
the piece I'm working on,

but I would never let work

get in the way
of my parental duties.

-You know that.
-I do,

but Samantha's teenage brain
may not.

She said
you have been anxious.

And that you have had
a hard time focusing

when you were helping her
with her psych project.

She said you also took off
in the middle of the night

to go see a source.

Wow.

Okay, I didn't realize
she was feeling so neglected.

What else did she have to say?

That she is concerned about
the story you're working on.

Which now has me worried, too.

Are her instincts right?

Are you involved
in something dangerous?

Yo, did you say anything about
seeing me at the hospital?

-Did you?
-I came close.

I almost told Ashley
everything.

And by everything,
what do you mean?

Look, man, I'm just trying
to get ahead of it, all right?

Tell Ashley everything
I've been involved with,

before you and your whole squad
show up with

your guns drawn
and your cuffs ready.

-But I didn't. All right?
-Good.

Because telling her would have
been your worst mistake.

Doesn't make a difference.
Everything's gonna blow up

now that I know
you're undercover.

Look, I don't want
Ashley to think

that I've been lying
about it all,

especially my feelings for her.

Your feelings? What?

Don't ever let me hear you
say that again.

I'm not undercover.

You got it?

♪ ♪

And to think you didn't want to
try the club's infrared sauna.

Told you the club's would
be better

than that old wooden box
you're used to.

You say "old,"
I say "tried and true."

You can play semantics all
you want, but I see that glow.

Welcome to our version
of the Mile High Club.

What do you say to me
paying you back

with a real
Mile High experience?

I'd say,
"How soon are we leaving?"

So... Have you thought any more

about having dinner
with the kids?

I have.

I'm sorry,
my answer's still no.

The most wonderful news!

The shoot for Tatum Stewart
is a go.

The photog's schedule
finally opened up

and we snagged a spot.

-DANI: Oh...
-Ah.

So who did she hire to, uh,
to do the campaign?

[gasps] Only the best photog
in the biz,

the one and only Olek.

Mm.

Oh, present company excluded,
of course.

No, no.
No, no need for all of that.

No, no. Um...
Olek is a rare talent.

I have no doubt that
he'll get what Tatum needs

from our superstar.

Don't be so sure, babycakes.

Why am I the only one excited?

I'm-I'm excited. I'm excited.

And the model?

Dani...

What's going on?

One of Chelsea's last gigs

was an anniversary shoot
for a magazine,

and they gathered all of
their previous cover models

to highlight
past, present and future.

Right. Um, I think
I remember that one. I...

-EleganceEdge. Yeah.
-DANI: Mm-hmm.

Flew off the shelves.
It was a major success.

But Olek was the photographer

and I heard him complain
about the older models.

He said they were
difficult to work with.

He said that he had
to do too much retouching

to get a good photo.

He basically buried all of
the older models in the back.

He was not kind.

Why have I never heard
this story?

Because I filed it away

and assumed I'd never have
to work with him.

But what am I supposed
to do now?

What if I can't give Tatum
what she needs

because I'm-I'm
too self-conscious about Olek?

Dani, baby...

you were born for this.

Don't let
that man's outdated views

get in the way of what
you know you can do.

Exactly.

You know
modeling is like muscle memory.

Your body is going
to get in front of that camera

and just take over.

So pull yourself together,
all right?

[Pamela sighs]

The last thing this agency needs

is for you to tighten up
and ruin this.

Pamela... Dear, is that the way
you speak to our other models?

Because that was awful advice.

[groans]

Is that pain
from the strained muscle

or my bringing up Nicole?

[forced chuckle]

You're just a regular
Leslie Jones today, huh?

I didn't plan on
gathering Nicole's roster.

Oh. Then enlighten me
on how you, Carlton, and Kial

all ended up playing together.

Well, I invited Izaiah...

Eva's boyfriend.

Yeah, I wanted to get
to know him.

-Mm-hmm.
-Obviously, I needed to...

have a team, so I added

Andre and Carlton in the mix.

You know, Carlton and I used
to ball together all the time,

so I figured
it would be a good way for us

to get back to normal.

And how did Kial get involved?

Now, see, that was Carlton.

Maybe he was the one who needed
to get out some aggression.

Because the last thing I need
in my life is more drama.

So you're holding steady.

No 2nd, 3rd or 70th
thoughts about Nicole

moving on with
your business partner?

Oh, I have thoughts.

But when I go there,
I have this vision

that reels me back in.

Of...?

A...

sassy, sultry nurse

that makes me...

think.

SHANICE:
Mm.

Wow, those thought patterns

look quite sexy on you,
Dr. Richardson.

TED:
Mm.

You know what else
looks sexy on me?

You.

[sighs] Vanessa, what can I say
to make this better?

I just don't feel right

about arranging a first meeting

with your daughter
when she's still dealing

with the death of her father.

Considering I can't convince you
that she's better,

I'll just have to accept this.

We have other important things
to discuss anyway.

Good. Lay it on me.

Our laundry service.

It's doing well,
but I'm thinking it's time

we bring in a few more loads.

Maybe even add in
some new colors?

Being proactive will serve
you well in this business.

Being inquisitive, too.

So what do you do
with your laundry,

once it's clean,
fluffed and folded?

I put it into a diversified
investment portfolio.

-How specific.
-[chuckles]

As I've said, this is
my way of protecting you.

Come on. Just one thing
about your latest investment.

The clinic?

Be serious.

I want to know how your
laundry investments progress,

for educational purposes.

All right.

Here's some advice
for when you start sourcing

your own opportunities.

Make sure it's someone
you trust to handle operations.

My latest venture is
a logistical nightmare.

Delivery delays,
warehouse issues,

shipping mishaps.

I mean, it's a bloody mess.

Okay, no more sweet-talking
until we ease your pain.

-Concentrate.
-Yes, ma'am.

-Ah.
-Okay, now, there are a few ways

you can do this
without my help.

-Okay.
-Okay?

It's really easy
to access your hamstrings.

-Mm-hmm.
-You can do it like this,

-bent over.
-Mm-hmm.

SHANICE:
Mm-hmm.

You can do it in
a seated position, like this.

-Just pull forward.
-Mm-hmm.

Got it? Yeah?

Let me see you try.

Okay.

Yeah.

[exhales] Okay.

Ah.

Ah. Mm.

Is that just a gentle pull,

or is that discomfort?

Ah. Yeah.
I'm-I'm-I'm feeling done.

How about I just walk around?

It'll loosen up.
It'll be fine. Huh?

Just like you thought
standing for hours in surgery

wouldn't wreck
your posterior chain.

Look, I appreciate
your professional input,

but this isn't the first time
I've tweaked a hamstring.

Okay?

And it won't be the last,

until you learn
to adequately stretch.

Peace and love.

Yeah, I try to model my life
after that these days.

Doctors. It's...

It's a combination therapy
focused on injury management.

-Mm.
-Keep your leg elevated.

-Mm-hmm.
-Keep movement, so you can

increase your range of mobility.

-Mm-hmm.
-Pay attention,

most importantly, to the cues

your body gives you as you heal.

Now, I got to get out of here.
I'll come check on you later.

Ah.
Peace, love and Shanice.

That's all a brother needs
in this world.

I'm sorry Samantha called
and got you worried.

The kids, they're used to
having my undivided attention.

And so, now,
when I'm on a work call

or busy writing...

Samantha starts
sending out an SOS.

Yeah. I mean, I love her,
but she wasn't exactly blessed

with a ton of patience,

especially when she's not
privy to every detail,

which she wants
every single time.

Reminds me of her Aunt Kat.

But seriously, I am a call away.

-Whatever you need.
-[sighs]

Cotillion shoes, lunches,

even if it's just a quiet
afternoon so you can focus.

Thank you, Nicole.
That's very kind.

Don't need to mention it.

I know Martin is in
the thick of his campaign,

and you're working
on something important.

Mm-hmm.

Something I have
to assume is dangerous,

since you won't answer
my question directly.

I don't understand.
You're not undercover.

The department doesn't know
anything about this,

and we need
to keep it that way.

All right, no disrespect,
but why would I believe you?

Ashley told me
you're a detective,

and apparently the best at it.

If I was working a angle,

don't you think I would have
arrested you by now?

Come on, man. Think.

All right, you got a point.

So what-what is this all about?

I owe somebody a lot of cash,

and my salary doesn't
even begin to cover it.

Isn't that why people do this
anyway? For money?

Yeah. For me, it's my mom.

You know,
her medical bills are piling up.

And I'm-I'm just--
I'm her only lifeline.

But why is cash
a problem for you?

Doesn't Naomi come from money?

Couldn't you just
ask her for help?

Can you really stand there
as a man and ask me that?

It's my responsibility,
not hers.

And plus, we're dealing
with a few other issues,

and I'm not trying
to pile on top of that.

Ah, you almost had me there.

Look around, man.
This ain't no joke.

I was just with Naomi
and Ashley last night.

And they had something
very different to say

about the state
of your marriage.

I operate out of tough love,
you know that.

Well,
it's not working right now.

All I can think about
is when I made the announcement

that I would be
doing Tatum's line

and that reporter paralyzed me
by calling out my age.

You are Dani Dupree.

You took your power back then
and you can do it now.

Dani, you remember
your Bali story?

This is not the same thing.

It is from where I'm sitting

and who I'm seeing.

The animal sanctuary campaign?
I remember that.

That went off
without a hitch.

I still have the prints.
What are you not telling me?

The creative director
brought out an actual cobra

-for Dani to pose with.
-Well, so what?

-She's not afraid of snakes.
-I was scared out of my mind.

-You never said.
-Because everyone

was treating it
like it was rubber.

Meanwhile,
they're saying things like,

"You better rub off your perfume
so you don't agitate the cobra.

And if the cobra strikes,
don't run."

I had no idea.

How did you handle it?

Andre, I appreciate
what you're trying to do,

but that was many Danis ago.

I am no longer that wild,
daring girl.

Okay.

-[Pamela laughs]
-Let me hear it.

All right.

First, I confirmed

that our slithering friend
had eaten recently,

-so I didn't look
like his next meal.
-ANDRE: Mm-hmm.

And then I used this trick
to relax all of my muscles

so I wouldn't come off
as a threat.

And?

And it was the best shot
of the day.

Exactly. Because my baby
excels when she's challenged.

Listen, Tatum would never have
chosen you for her campaign

if she didn't think
you were the perfect person

-to represent her new line.
-Yeah.

Sadly, she chose Olek
as her photographer.

So...

So I am going to have to show
that mononymous bastard

what my seasoned ass
is made of.

-[groans] Deal.
-PAMELA: Yes!

Wonderful. Wonderful.
It's settled, then.

All right, I'm going
to leave you two to it

and go powder my nose
before my next appointment.

-All right. I love you.
-I love you.

-[both laughing]
-Oh! She's so pretty.

-Right.
-Ciao, ciao, ciao for now.

-See you.
-Love you.

-Yeah...
-Ah.

Man.

-If you were on set in Bali...
-Mm-hmm?

would you have protected me?

[chuckles]

Woman, please.

One Andre versus one snake?

That cobra would have
struck a pose

and been begging
for the spotlight.

Wait.

Excuse me.

As you know, I'm very good
at problem-solving.

Why don't you let me whip
your latest venture into shape

just like
I did with Heart Attach?

Heart Attach was doing fine
before you came along.

I don't recall you filing
any complaints.

Sure, it scratched an itch
as a subscriber,

but as an owner,
I've doubled membership,

increased
our satisfaction ratings,

and recruited some of
the hottest talent in town.

You have been
a wonderful connector,

but some opportunities
require a little more distance.

You don't need to have
these fingers in everything.

Yeah, yeah.

You know where I'll be when
this one starts falling apart.

Hmm. Right next to me.

In bed.

Mm.

Pamela will be here any minute.
We have a meeting.

You don't want
to give her a show?

I don't work for free.

Hey, hey.

It's not that
I'm avoiding the subject.

It just seems dangerous
and elusive

because I can't go
into specifics.

I have sources to protect.

I hear you.

In our line of work,
we have a duty to safeguard

confidential information.

Exactly.

This could be a big story

and I just don't want
to get scooped.

Martin doesn't even know
the details.

How's he reacting to that?

He understands why I can't
talk openly about it.

He respects
my professional boundaries.

Okay.

Just promise me
that you will reach out

if you feel overwhelmed--

with the story,
the kids, anything.

I promise.

And thank you again
for the shoes.

[exhales heavily]

So you're saying I'm lying?

I'm trying to understand.

Naomi was gushing over
the flowers you sent her.

She even showed Ashley
a picture.

She kept them?

Wow. I thought she was going
to toss them in the trash

after the last argument we had.

So that's good to know.

Ah. So she knows about
your financial situation?

She snooped through my phone

and saw a message
from my debt collector.

And she was pissed.

So I sent the flowers as a way
to make it up with her.

Ah.

Well, Ashley was singing
your praises, too.

I don't think she'd do that

if she knew her best friend's
man was messing up.

You think Naomi tells Ashley
every aspect of her life?

Listen, man, just 'cause
we're going through a few things

doesn't mean you
just put all your business

on front street
for everybody to know.

But enough with the questions.

-I need some assurances
from you.
-Like what?

When you see me out here,

I'm Rashad. You got it?

Just Rashad.

If somebody catches wind
that I'm somebody else

or that I'm a cop...

that's a wrap for
the both of us, believe me.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. When did
your cover become all about me?

Because if my chief of
police father gets this first,

he won't hesitate to throw me
under the jail.

And I'm taking you with me.

He comes
from a long line of cops.

Life or death is
the oath to him.

Your own father would
do that to you.

Hell yeah. In a heartbeat.

And if I get caught up
because you running your mouth,

I'm taking you down.

And then who's going
to take care of Mommy?

We got a deal?

-[exhales]
-[distant clatter]

-Vanessa.
-Oh!

Thank you so much for taking
the time to meet with me.

-Mwah. Mwah.
-Mwah.

Of course.

Thank you for your flexibility
in meeting here.

Oh, it's no problem at all.

I was just finishing up
with Dani.

Listen,
I'll get right to the point.

I'm on the board of an
organization called Femmeployed

and we are very interested
in Vanessa McBride Realty.

I've heard of them.

They do great things
for female entrepreneurs

and women-led businesses.

Mm-hmm. Oh, I'm so glad
that you've heard of us.

We would like to feature you

in our
Shine a Light On program.

This is a national campaign,

complete with profile write-up

and a spot
on our advisory board.

Wow, I-I'm so flattered
that my business

is being acknowledged
in this way.

It's not only that.

You also get
an all-expenses-paid trip

to New York City,

where you'll get
to mingle and network

with businesswomen,
politicians and culture makers.

-How does that sound?
-A-Amazing.

-Better than amazing.
-Wonderful.

I'm so happy to hear it.

So, of course, there'll be a
little bit of a vetting process.

Nothing out of the ordinary,
just a quick internal check

to make sure
that we are all aligned

with our chosen partners.
You understand.

-Oh, sure, sure.
-Of course.

Now, once you pass, which
I absolutely know you will,

we'll set up the photo shoot
and the interview.

Money laundering has gotten
such an ugly reputation.

But really, if you think
about it, it's just swapping

my hard-earned dollars
for yours.

It's also a crime.

I could end up
in federal prison.

I'll have someone reach out
this week.

Is email okay?

Um, actually,

that-that won't be necessary,
Pamela.

Oh? Why not?

Because, as much as I appreciate
the consideration...

I'm going to have
to turn down this opportunity.

Oh.

I'll have another one
of those green juices, please.

[phone chimes]

[Dani laughing]

[Andre and Dani converse
indistinctly]

Well, you two sound like you're
still enjoying wedded bliss.

What's it to you, Joey?

-You jealous?
-Inspired.

In fact,
I was thinking of having

that Anita Williams
impersonator--

the one that sang
at your wedding--

come do some shows
at the casino this fall.

Hey...

you two should come
and renew your vows

on your anniversary.

We can do up one of
the private rooms like a chapel.

Just like old times.

Oh, unless...

Unless what?

Well, you're still,
what, six months out?

DANI:
Mm-hmm.

Well, that can be a long time,
especially nowadays.

Things change so quickly.

And what's
that supposed to mean?

Uh, I think what
Mr. Armstrong is saying

is that he is rooting for us
more than anyone else.

10,000 times more, in fact.

-[Joey laughs]
-You know what, Joey?

Here's what I'm going
to do for you.

When it's time
for our renewal ceremony,

I'm going to make sure
that you and my girl Vanessa

are seated
right in the front row,

so that you can witness
our unchanging

and ever-growing love.

I'm counting the days.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

I so rarely get to come
to the country club.

I'm going to explore
the chef's private herb garden.

[Dani laughs]

Huh.

You two clearly have some kind
of an inside joke going on.

Mm. Don't take him seriously.

He's out of his mind.

-Mm.
-You heard him.

He said he was going to go
to the herb garden.

You know...

...herb?

Some reason I can't imagine that
guy relaxing enough to partake.

Yeah, but...
made you look.

What am I going to do with you?

Love me forever.

And I'll do the same in return.

[knocking at door]

[grunts]

[groans]

Ah...

I have missed you.

Ah-ah-ah.
Slow your roll, lover boy.

I am here
in an official capacity first.

I need to make sure
you're healing well.

Ah.

This, uh...

hands-on approach
sounds enticing.

Doctors truly are
the worst patients.

Do as I say, sir...

-Mm.
-...or I'll have to punish you.

You promise?

Ah. Extend that leg out more.

Really stretch that band.

If I push any more,
I'm gonna overextend.

Try.

-Mm-hmm.
-[grunts]

I told you already, that is not
how you release the band.

That's how you knocked
everything over last time.

[groans]

-How are you feeling?
-Ah.

Beat up. Better. Thank you.

You know, I, uh,

couldn't even do this earlier.

Ooh.

Another satisfied patient.

So, the leg is better.

Mm-hmm.

Let's, uh...

get the rest of
that body checked out.

Mm.

Promise I'll go easier
this time.

TED:
Mm...

Yeah, well...

[exhales]

Mm. You seemed so excited
about being honored.

-Yeah.
-What happened?

The timing is off,
unfortunately.

I don't know if you've heard.

I'm in the middle of opening
the Phoenix Street Free Clinic.

Oh, I've heard rumblings
about the clinic.

I didn't know
you were involved.

I thought that was all
the work of Leslie Thomas.

The clinic is
actually a memorial

to my late husband, Doug.

For his sake
and for my children,

I can't let anything pull
my focus from that right now.

Well, if it's timing
that's the issue,

we can always adjust
on our end.

You'll have plenty of time
to open your clinic.

No, it's not only that.

Launching a business like this

relies on community support.

I-I... I would be worried
that people thought

my involvement with Femmeployed
was them thinking

I was trying
to manufacture donations.

Oh...

You see,
this is why you're perfect.

We only take honorees
with integrity

and purpose-driven missions
of their own.

Look, we'll adjust around
your schedule, all right?

Don't worry about it.

Please, Pamela,
this is difficult enough.

I... I'd never forgive myself

if the attention that's supposed
to be focused on the clinic

was rerouted to me. It...

it just wouldn't be right.
So...

really, thank you.

But no thank you.

Oh. Well, all right.

I mean, I can't understand
how difficult it is

to open a business
with a split focus.

I'll decline on your behalf.

But I'm keeping you in mind
for the future.

Thank you, Pamela.

Mm. All right.
You're very welcome.

You have a lovely
rest of your afternoon.

-You, too.
-Okay.

DANI:
All hail Nicole,

empress of the reverse harem.

-Oh, my gosh...
-Excuse me?

Your sister's just
playing around.

A reverse harem is when the
female protagonist in a novel

is surrounded by all of
her multiple love interests.

What?

I was just telling Dani

about a friend
who designs book covers.

Reverse harem is
a huge romance genre.

Mm-hmm. She's being coy,
but she knows all about it.

-ANDRE: Mm-hmm.
-Andre, here,

was just sweating it up

with your multiple,
multiple lovers.

Okay.
Clearly, I need a translator

for whatever language

you and Andre are
speaking right now.

Okay. A couple days ago,

Uncle Ted got
a couple of us together

to hit the B-ball court.

And then they hit each other.

Wait, what?

I didn't hear
about a basketball game.

A bunch of accomplished,
sexy, glistening men

battling it out over you, Sissy.

Isn't that the hottest thing
you've ever heard?

Andre, tell her.

Come on, Dani.

I do have a bro code to respect.

And you have a wife code that
takes precedence over that.

Don't you remember
our wedding vows?

"I vow to divulge every detail

"of my interactions
to the lovely Dani Dupree

for both her amusement
and entertainment."

You know,
I wouldn't be surprised

if you really did whisper that

into the ear
of that impersonator.

I can barely remember
that night.

It's... kind of hazy
around the edges.

Same. But you said, "I do,"
so it holds.

Nicole, sit down
so Andre can fill you in.

Take a seat.

[sighs]

[phone chimes]

[phone chimes]

[sighs]

[phone ringing]

Yeah?

It's me.

SMITTY:
Finally.

I've been over here
ready to jump out of my skin.

What happened with Grayson?
Did you talk to him?

There was a close call when we
thought somebody overheard us,

but it was just
a kid passing through.

-Grayson's on board.
-What'd you tell him?

I fed him a sob story about

owing somebody a lot of cash,
and he bought it.

Do you feel like
you can trust him?

I don't know 100%,

but I realized today
that he has a lot to lose.

He has a sick mother
to think about.

At least,
that's what he told me.

Did you do
that deep dive on him?

Yeah. The guy comes up clean.

How'd you leave it?

I made it very clear
that if he turns against me,

it won't go down well.

So you're on track
with your plan?

I am.

Use this alliance
to my advantage.

Get Grayson
to fully open up to me,

and then turn him.

Having an inside source
at Garland...

it would crack
this investigation wide open.

Exactly.

And then we can really find out
who's running things.

Tell me who did it
so I can do them.

Pamela Curtis works with
this organization, Femmeployed,

and they wanted to honor me
as a woman leader in business.

It's a huge deal.

What's the problem?

Comes with national recognition,

a written profile,

social media piece and...

...an internal vetting.

I see.

Relax.

I-I turned it down.

Extra eyes on me means
too much visibility on us and...

I am not going to prison
so I can attend a luncheon.

Well, I'm sorry you had to pass.

It sounds like
something you wanted.

I did.

But, like I told Pamela,
I need all of my focus

to be on our clinic
and Doug's legacy.

I don't want anything
to overshadow that.

That's what's
most important right now.

Doug was an upstanding member
in this community.

That will be
his lasting impression.

Not all these secrets
that have come out and-and

certainly not how he died.

He gave his life to his work
and saving people.

That's how Donnell
and Deanna will remember him.

He wasn't the sum
of his many mistakes.

Mm. Stop it.

Doug's legacy deserves better

and I intend to make sure

he is honored
in the right way.

But...

I hope you know,

just because I am focused
on reclaiming his reputation,

it doesn't mean
I am stuck in the past.

You are my future.

Why do you think
I am pushing so hard

for you to sit down
with the kids?

I want the people I love most
in the world to be together.

How's the hammy?

Mm.

Recovered.

You healed me.

Damn, I'm good.

You're the best thing
to happen to me in a long time.

You know that?

I never thought I'd be
with a man like you.

What's a man like me?

-We come from completely
different worlds.
-Ah.

Ah, not really.

We're both
healthcare professionals.

-We both have to...
-You know what I mean.

You've...

lived in a mansion with...

more rooms than any place
I've ever lived in combined.

You can afford
to stay in a fancy hotel

for months on end.

You were married
for decades and

have grown kids.

My longest relationship has
been me and my hairstylist.

-And it is an important one.
-Yeah.

And me and Miss Juanita are
not breaking up anytime soon.

But that's not the point
I was trying to make.

Mm.

We're different.

So we come from different
economic backgrounds.

So what?

Why sell yourself short?

You're smart, you're funny.

You're the strongest woman
I know.

-I know I'm great.
-[chuckles]

It's just...

It's taking more of
an adjustment than I thought.

Hmm.

You remember
how that lady reacted

when I was your date
at the country club?

Mm.

Like I didn't belong.

Anastasia, you put
that old gossip in a place.

I'm the one
that doesn't measure up.

Okay, you have to explain that.

I mean...

last year, my reputation
took a major hit.

Got exposed to
all of Fairmont Crest

as a liar, a cheater, a...

deadbeat dad.

Basically cast aside.

No one took me seriously.

Until you.

You saved me, Shanice.

Gave me a sense of myself back.

It's been my pleasure.

I have an idea.

Why don't we forget
where I came from,

and we forget
where you came from...

-Hmm.
-...and we create...

a whole new place together,
just us.

-Hmm?
-We can build
our own little cocoon.

Mm-hmm.

Our own galaxy,

where I can give you
all the good things

that you deserve.

Miss Juanita included.

Dani is making it
more than what it is.

Like I said, Uncle Ted gathered
a couple of us

to play basketball.

During the process,
a couple of ribs

and maybe some egos
were bruised.

Tell her which ones.

Uncle Ted strained
his hamstring.

Yeah. Carlton hurt his wrist

and Kial tweaked his elbow.

DANI:
And my man got away
without a scratch.

All your men are old and busted.

-ANDRE: Come on, baby.
-[laughs]

Grow up, Dani.

First of all, what were
you all doing together?

Is the hospital running
their league again?

No. Uncle Ted wanted
to get to know

Eva's boyfriend, Izaiah, better.

So, yeah,
he thought this would be

a low-pressure way
of doing that.

And how we all got pulled
into it, I'm not really sure.

But if you do the math,
that's you,

Ted, Izaiah, Carlton and Kial.

That's only five. Don't you
need an even number to play?

Yeah. There was another guy
who jumped in.

Ooh! Did you get his number
for Nicole?

-Dani...
-[giggling]

Do you ever stop?

My sister,

the recipient of
the Distinguished Service Award

and now Fairmont Crest's
most eligible bachelorette.

Both titles I wear with pride.

DANI:
I know that's right.

[both laughing]
