[sentimental jazz music]

[water spraying]

- [Yari] Rose, call me.

This mission, it turns out Somaya's hit isn't in the system.

Apparently Chase authorized it under the table.

But that's not all, Richard Bolden...

- Something told me you'd be a morning person.

- Nothing comes to a sleeper but a dream.

How you feeling?

- I'm okay.

Or I will be.

? It got me forgiving you

- Three guns, Rose?

- It's faster to change weapons than it is to reload.

? Your love is stronger

- No, you don't have to cover up on my account.

I already got a really good look last night.

[Rose chuckles]

Listen, thank you,

you know, for,

for saving my life.

You're two for two.

I don't know what I would have done

if you wouldn't have been there.

- But I was.

That's what I'm here for, right?

- Is that the only reason?

[phone rings]

- You kept your phone on?

- I just texted Carmen to let her know I was okay.

[Rose scoffs]

You had your phone on.

- I had to, I'm leaving.

- [Somaya] You're leaving me?

Where are you going?

- I gotta run some errands.

But I'm leaving you one of these guns.

- You want me to use this thing?

- If you have to.

- Rose.

[gun clicks]

- Stand up, let me show you.

First, don't put your finger on the trigger

unless you're ready to shoot.

Otherwise, it's here.

Right here.

Safety is here.

Flick it up to fire.

Yeah, both hands.

Yeah.

And if or when you need to discharge,

you grip it firmly and squeeze.

[Somaya exhales shakily]

All right, I'ma leave that one with you, all right?

- Why can't I just come with you? [clears throat]

- Because you're safer here.

Keep the door locked.

No one in, no one out.

- Look, I'm not gonna be a prisoner in my own home.

I need to go to the studio, Rose.

I just need to re-record one more song

and then I'm done.

- Somaya, stop.

I feel like you worried about the wrong shit right now.

- It's the only shit that matters, Rose.

You saw how last night was.

I have to get away from Bingo, okay?

I...

[Rose sighs]

I need to be in control of my life,

my music, my art.

- Somaya, somebody tried to kill you.

Do you not understand that?

- And you stopped them before they could.

Hey, I'm not the first celebrity

to have to deal with this, okay?

Fans can be fucking crazy.

- And if they try again, then what?

- You just said it.

That's what you're here for, right?

- I can't protect you from yourself.

- Listen, I already have one man's foot on my neck.

I don't need another one, okay?

If it's my time to go, then that's just the way that it is.

? If I'ma risk it all

? Might as well go crazy in it

? There is no rose without thorns ?

[pulsing hiphop music]

? Through rose-colored glasses

? I see the future, uh

? This is the wild rose

? I've been trying a long time

? But baby, it's too late

? If I'ma risk it all

? Might as well go crazy in it

? Since I'm all the way deep inside ?

? I might as well go crazy

? 'Bout to go crazy in it

[music fades]

[sultry hiphop music]

? It's a shame I didn't meet you ?

[Bingo sighs] ? At the corner

? On the fourth of July

? And I'll always miss the fireworks ?

? I never make the rooftop in time ?

- Yo, cut that shit.

Cut it off, that ain't it.

- What?

- It's not it.

- Bingo, this song slaps.

Like, it's literally a vibe.

- Do you see me vibing to it, Carmen?

If you're looking for your next big hit record,

the shit you're playing is just not cutting it.

Dead ass. [sighs]

- When is it gon' be my turn, Bingo?

- Oh my God.

Here you go with that shit.

- [Carmen] No, for real.

Like come on, even at the party last night,

before all that shit went down with Somaya,

they played the fuck outta me.

Bingo, they wouldn't even let me walk the fucking carpet.

Made me look like a goofy-

- Last night was not about you, you know that.

- And that's my point.

Nobody gives a fuck about me, Bingo.

Nobody gives a fuck that I'm the pen behind Somaya's hits.

- Lower your fucking voice.

- Look, just let me play you another one, all right?

[Bingo sighs]

[relaxed pop music]

? Feelin' really free

? With my insecurities

? It's so crazy how you see the things ?

? That I don't even see

? But you're just what I need

- Okay. ? I don't wanna leave

? Life ain't bout forgetting

? When I'm with you, I can breathe ?

- [Bingo] Aye, okay, yeah!

Yeah! - [Carmen] Yeah!

- Now that's a fucking hit!

- I'm telling you.

- [Bingo] Now that's a hit.

- You like it?

- No, I fucking love it.

[both laughing]

Once Somaya put her voice on there, though, Billboarded.

I'm telling you right God damn now, oh my God.

Man, I can already see the video.

Who could I get?

Tyla, ooh, Tyla would be perfect for the remix.

- [Carmen] Hell no.

Fuck no.

No, no, no, no, this is my song.

Come on, Bingo, I wrote it for me, my album.

The one you promised me, remember?

- Well if it's your goddamn song,

then why the hell would you play it?

- 'Cause I'm showing you what I'm capable of.

- [Bingo] Carmen, I'm just gonna keep it a hundred with you.

You're an amazing songwriter.

You can write your ass off.

But it takes a certain it for that star power,

and you just don't got it.

Somaya does.

So all I need from you at Platinum Prime Records is

to continue writing hits like that one for Somaya.

That's your first priority.

[soft pensive music]

[Bingo sighs]

So have you spoken to your little friend lately?

Hmm? [slurps]

- I called her this morning.

- Mmm.

- Went to voicemail.

- [snickers] Well, that's your weekly allowance for my weekly report,

- That album leak.

- [Bingo] Mmm hmm.

- It was all her.

- When the fuck did you know that?

- I just found out, for real, like I swear.

- And that wasn't the first thing your Black ass

couldn't say to me when you came in here this morning?

Playing shit that nobody wants to hear?

[low tense music]

[Bingo sighs]

What else you sitting on?

And for your sake, Carmen,

you better not leave out one damn detail.

Talk!

- Her and EQ,

they been re-recording her debut album for,

for an independent release.

And Rose, they been hanging out like a lot.

Like he's at her house right now.

[Bingo sniffles]

[knuckles cracking]

[dreamy melancholic music]

? Shelter you with these arms

- Damn.

? I been waitin' for you

? There can be no right or no wrongs ?

? Baby, you put my body

- You late.

- Shh.

- Were you followed?

- That's amateur shit.

- When was the last time you checked your car for bugs?

[adaptor beeps]

Frequency adaptor.

- Exactly, never leave home without it.

You think I'm under surveillance?

- Can't be too careful.

You're not exactly employee of the month at Civil.

Especially not after what happened last night.

I mean, you know the consequence for not following through.

It's gonna be- - Is death

Yes, Yari.

Thanks for the reminder.

But I've already made my decision.

There's a chink in Civil's armor,

and I feel like we being lied to.

How's the bug on Chase's phone?

- It's active.

I listen in when I can, but so far it's just same old Chase.

- [sighs] So your voicemail.

- Against my better judgment

and likely at the risk of both of our lives,

I looked into the Somaya hit.

It's definitely unsanctioned.

Literally there is no record of it in the guillotine.

It has to be Chase. - Has to be Chase.

- But who would hire him?

- She is in a multi-million-dollar firestorm with her label.

Somebody has something to gain.

- Okay, but what does the label gain?

- I don't know.

Who is this?

- The man who shot you.

- Bolden?

- Died in a boating accident

and mysteriously shows back up alive?

- And now Civil wants him dead, again.

- Yes, it's fucking confusing.

But there is something going on here

that is bigger than the both of us.

And I just wanted you to know what you're dealing with.

So maybe now you'll leave it alone.

[Rose smacks lips]

[engine rumbles] [low tense music]

- I have to be honest.

I was hoping you would give me some other good news.

- Nothing yet, Rose.

- I dream about them every night.

It's like I can save everyone else except them.

I need them back, Yari.

- I know.

[door slams]

[gun cocks]

- You gonna shoot your brother?

- Depends.

Is my brother gonna shoot me?

- Come on, man.

It's me, big bro.

- Am I a target?

Am I in the guillotine?

- I had the chance to snipe you

when you had your pow wow with Yari.

If you were my target, you woulda been dead already.

- [Rose] What happened to us, Chase?

- Life.

The job.

Shit, I lost count of my kills a long time ago.

This one I had last week had a gambling debt.

He owed the contractor a quarter million.

- Now that contractor won't see a dime.

- Sometimes teaching a lesson is more valuable than money.

All the contractor wanted once I killed him was a picture.

To warn others.

I hit him from a distance, but that first shot,

it didn't take him out.

He was choking on his own blood.

It lasted about two minutes.

I snapped a photo and sent it to the contractor.

- You let him suffer.

Clear violation.

- Everyone has vices, Rose.

Even you.

Somaya?

You let your feelings for that girl

get in the way of the mission,

cloud your judgment.

Pope wants revenge.

- He can get it any time.

And my judgment has never been clearer.

I'm at 27 kills.

And I do keep count.

Every one of those kills takes a piece of me.

I feel something.

I don't know how many pieces I have left.

- You don't love us no more?

- I love my family.

But I have a new family.

- See, that's where she went wrong.

Summer forced you to choose between her and us.

No one is suppose to come between us.

No one.

Family's important to me too.

We're on the same team.

And that's why I'm here.

'Cause soon I'll be head honcho at Civil.

And I have to make some really tough decisions.

And I need to know where you stand.

I need to know if my brother will help continue the legacy

that Mom and Dad built for us.

And make more bread than you could even ever imagine.

Or if you're gonna continue to interfere,

end up on Civil's hit list.

- Who put the hit out on Somaya?

Bingo?

- That goes against the code.

- Now you wanna follow the code.

Chase, we don't want the same things.

You always chased the money.

I'm more of a vigilante.

Batman.

Even if that means going against the establishment.

- For the record, Batman was rich as fuck.

But you've made your decision.

I'm gonna miss you, brother.

[engine revs]

[thumping hiphop music]

? Start prayin'

? Nobody's safe

? Nobody's safe

? Nobody's safe

? Yeah, nobody's safe

? Yeah, nobody's safe

? Yeah, nobody's safe

[fist pounding]

- Somaya!

[fist pounding]

[Bingo grunts]

Somaya.

- What the fuck, Bingo?

Did you just break my fucking door?

- I'm sorry, you mean my fucking door.

- You can't just barge in here like that.

- Where is he?

- Who are you talking about?

- Rose.

- He's not here!

- I know he's here.

Don't, don't do that.

Don't fucking lie to me.

- I'm not lying.

What the fuck was that?

This is my space.

- [scoffs] Your space?

- Yeah. - This is your space?

All this shit in here is mine.

I paid for every goddamn thing that's in here.

You have all of this because of me.

You understand?

This...

This is mine.

[glass shatters]

Mine!

You know what else?

This is mine!

Do you understand that?

And you know what else is mine?

Look at me.

You.

And you know what else, baby?

That little secret album you're recording is mine too.

All of it.

- Bingo, I-

- I, I, I. [gasps]

You what, you thought what?

What was you about to say?

You tried to take money out of my hand,

food off my plate after,

after the millions that I've invested in you.

[Bingo exhales sharply]

[low tense music]

- The masters on the original albums are all yours, okay?

But the new version is mine.

And the Copyright Act of 1976

[Bingo snickers]

allows for me to record a new version

of a previously recorded song.

Okay, let's just let the fans decide

which version they wanna support.

[Bingo chuckles]

- So what, you a goddamn attorney now?

You're a lawyer.

Let me tell you something.

You're playing with fire, Somaya.

- Good thing I'm a water sign.

[Somaya pants]

Get out! - [Bingo] Okay.

- Right now!

- Ooh wee.

Who done taught you how to hold a gun?

That's crazy.

'Cause you gon' tell me right now

that you gon' bite the motherfucking hand that feed you?

Huh?

No, no, no, no, no, no.

Come on, come here.

Yeah, no, no.

Let me tell you something, you ungrateful bitch.

[gun thuds]

Don't you ever pull a goddamn gun out on me.

You understand?

You must be out your goddamn mind.

[Somaya wheezes]

[door thuds]

- Get your fucking hands off of her.

[Somaya coughs]

- No, no, no, it's okay.

It's okay, okay?

Boom!

There he is.

Hey Rose.

Just the man I was looking for.

No, it's okay.

You can put the gun down, pretty boy.

I just, I just wanna talk, okay?

It seems to me that you two have been keeping secrets.

Do you remember the first time we met?

What did I tell you?

I said you can't trust anyone.

- Except for you.

[Bingo chuckles]

- Oh my gosh, so you were listening.

He was actually listening.

Well, it must be selective hearing

because I also recall the price for failing me.

You have to understand a man in my position.

I got eyes and ears everywhere.

And a little birdie landed right here and just...

[Bingo whistles] [Rose scoffs]

Telling me everything,

that you've been going above and beyond.

Even overnight.

So I want you to know that I'm not just the CEO,

I am the head of HR.

Which means you're fucking fired.

And you got five seconds to get the fuck out

or you won't be able to recognize yourself

when you look in the mirror.

Five.

Four.

Fuck it.

[fighters grunting]

- Bout to whoop your Eddie from Techie looking ass

right in the goddamn mouth.

Come on, nigga.

[Rose grunts]

[Bingo thuds]

[glass shatters]

[fighters grunting]

[glass shatters]

[head thuds]

[Rose groans]

- Somaya, we need to go.

[sultry hiphop music]

- Oh my God.

Fuck!

Fuck. [pants]

He's fucking crazy.

? Been on the run

? Now I'm lookin' for someone

? To love me right

- We've gotta get you to a hospital.

- No, it's fine.

It's just a flesh wound.

? I'm not even asking for forever ?

- [sighs] God.

? To whatever gets my mind off

? The right and the wrongs

? What do you know

? I found you

? You

? I found you

? Babe

[Rose groans]

- [Somaya] That's a lot of blood, Rose.

- Yeah, I'm good, I'm good.

- Damn, you buy the whole store?

- It's not like you had time to pack, right?

[paper crinkles]

- What am I gonna do with these?

- You gotta keep a low profile.

We both do.

[engine revs] ? Handgun, handgun

? Handgun, handgun, handgun

? Aye, aye, aye, aye

? I call my baby when I'm stressed ?

? Not nina, but a Glock

? It gon' pop you when you step ?

? Aye, I call my baby when I'm stressed ?

? Not nina, but a Glock

? It gon' pop you in your chest ?

? Pop you when you step

? Like a zit on my chest

? Oh my god, duck ya head

? Like you ducking from the fed ?

? I got a shot

- [Clerk] So what type of card would you like to use?

- I have cash.

- Usually we like to have a card on file, but I get it.

You don't want the charge hitting

your credit card statement.

- Yeah, yeah, you know how it is.

- [chuckles] Oh boy, I wish I did.

That'll be $78.50 per night, Mr. Tate.

- [Rose] Yes, thank you.

[neighbors chattering]

- You've gotta be fucking kidding me, Rose.

What, the Ritz Carlton was booked up?

- We're outta the way.

No one will expect you to be here.

- Yeah, I wouldn't expect for me to be here.

Can you imagine if someone got a video of me

walking up in here?

- You really care what people think, huh?

- We all do.

- I don't.

[Rose groans]

- Well, you're a nobody.

I didn't mean it like that.

I just meant that you don't have thousands of haters

and blogs making derogatory comments about you

on social media for clicks and views.

- [sighs] No, you right.

I don't have social media.

- No, because you're a regular ass person

with a regular ass life.

- Yeah, maybe you should follow suit.

- And lose 32 million followers?

Okay, maybe one day I'll have the courage for that,

but no, I need my soldiers.

[Rose sighs]

[soft tense music]

[Rose groaning]

Why can't we just go to your house?

Bingo's people won't know I'm there.

What are you hiding?

- Not hiding, just not sharing.

- Okay, well I told you, I'm not hiding out.

I refuse for Bingo to scare me off from my art.

I booked a studio session with EQ tonight.

I can't miss it.

The studio is my safe space.

Bingo knows what I'm working on.

I need to finish this project and get it out there

before he finds a way to block it.

Otherwise I'll never be free of him.

- Somaya-

- Look, it's his home studio.

It's super secure.

No one will know I'm there.

And you can sit in the car and wait till I'm done.

[computers beeping]

[papers rustling]

[camera clicking]

- [Joyce] Oh, headed somewhere?

We interrupting you?

- [Yari] Uh, no, no.

Hey, what's up?

- Well, won't you tell us, daughter?

And remember, before you answer,

the penalty for lying to me or stealing from me is steep.

You see, I didn't raise my daughter to be a thief.

Did you, Franklin?

- Listen, kiddo, you didn't leave me much of a choice.

Something's just not adding up.

Honey, we are worried about you,

and clearly something's going on,

and we need to know what that is.

- I'm losing my patience.

- I told Daddy.

I needed training and stuff.

Just to keep the organization on the cutting edge

and ahead of the curve.

I swear, I was just trying to take some initiative.

- Okay.

Then you should be able to provide receipts

for over $25,000 worth of training and stuff.

Right?

I'll expect those receipts available for audit

in the next 48 hours.

Until then,

we're revoking all of your access and privileges.

- Wait a minute.

Yari supports every agent in this organization.

- Right, no.

Mom, you cannot be serious.

The team needs me, I can't just not be here.

- We'll make do.

You're dismissed.

Oh, and if you're planning on taking

any of those laptops or your phone,

that's Civil property.

It stays here.

[pulsing R&B music]

? Why you playin' with my head

? That's a hard pill to swallow, uh ?

? I still feel what you said

? Though it was done in the shadows ?

? Yeah

? Energy don't lie

? You could try to kill the vibe ?

? But it's comin' back to life, yeah ?

? Only so much I can say

? 'Cause my intuition [phone dings]

- [EQ] Hey, can you grab that food outside real quick?

? Like October, I still fall

? Love with no GPS

? So now it's lost [Postmate grunts]

? Blowin' smoke to keep my head right ?

? You no longer by my bedside [gun pings]

? But I can't even lie, lie

? You got that fire, I can't lie to you ?

- [Assassin] Hey!

? But it's way too much

? To lie with you [both grunting]

? Uh, so I have to say goodbye to you ?

- Somaya!

Somaya!

? 'Cause if I didn't I'll be lying ?

[gun cocks]

[gun bangs]

[Somaya screams and pants]

[phone ringing]

- [Rose] Somaya?

[Somaya screams]

Somaya, what's going on?

Somaya, talk to me.

- I need help!

- [Rose] Don't move, I'll be right there.

- Let's get the fuck up outta here. Come on, let's go.

[low tense music]

[Somaya sobbing]

- Somaya, Somaya!

- Rose? [sobbing]

- We gotta get outta here.

- But EQ!

- No, no, no, he's gone.

He's gone.

- No.

- Yo, who else knew you was here today?

- Just you and EQ and,

and Carmen. [sobs]

- [Rose] One to the head.

This is a professional hit.

This has Civil written all over it.

- No, no! - Come on, come on.

Civil Code number 10, never reveal your mission.

[warm soulful music]

? We had coffee in the morning

? Tea in the afternoon

? Then I had Hennessy in the evening ?

? Got me forgiving you

? We had coffee in the morning

? And a tea in the afternoon

? Then we had Hennessy in the evening ?

? It got me forgiving me

? More than pride
