Original subtitles

I am so glad you called.

I'm guessing the Coffee with Candidates event

at the hospital went well.

It did. The turnout was fantastic,

and the attendees had thoughtful questions.

Of course they did.

Your constituents have always seemed

to be well-informed.

If you'd stuck around the hospital, you'd probably

run into your grandmother.

-Is she okay? -She's fine.

Just a follow-up,

but she would not hear of me accompanying her.

No, no, she called up Titus.

Next thing I knew, they were on their way.

She wouldn't even let you wait in the car?

No. She said she didn't want to be treated like

she was at death's door.

She's back. Anytime I hear Gran

being stubborn or feisty, I stop worrying.

That's the clue.

Well, now that I'm out of my caretaker mode,

what will I do with myself? Talk politics with you?

I'm glad you're pleased about that.

But after you hear what I have to say,

hopefully, you still will be.

[elevator dings]

Hi.

Oh, I'm glad I was in when you called, Anita.

What can I do for you?

Actually, I'm here for a follow-up with my doctor,

but I found I had a little time,

so I wanted to talk to you about Vernon

and these memory lapses he's been experiencing.

I am so glad he opened up to you about what he was going through.

I had no idea that a vitamin deficiency

could cause such serious symptoms.

We're fortunate that it was

something relatively easy to diagnose and treat.

There can be many causes of cognitive issues

among older people, including stress and sleep deprivation.

Sadly, there's no cure for aging,

but it's better than the alternative.

You have been through so much,

I understand why you were prone

to jump to the worst-case scenario.

And I know from experience that many people are reluctant

to get tested when they start experiencing cognitive symptoms.

Even though the root cause is something treatable,

they fear a devastating diagnosis.

As was the case with Vernon.

He waited until my tumor began to shrink

before dealing with his memory lapses.

-I'm glad he came to me. -Me, too.

He has a very full life he needs to get back to.

His classes at Banneker that he switched to Zoom

and his political work.

I'm afraid that my illness has taken up too much of his focus.

I hope now that you're finishing up with chemo,

that Vernon will be able to give more attention

-to taking care of himself. -Yeah.

We'll have the opportunity to get back to taking care

of each other again in far more enjoyable ways.

Grayson did the job.

You did a good job with your warning, Ren.

More than worse for wear,

but still functional enough to do his job.

I did a verbal threat of my own.

Hopefully, it's enough to keep him from saying

anything he shouldn't to his clueless nurse girlfriend.

I don't want anyone suspecting some of our staffers

are doing more than healing the sick.

Ted. Hey.

-Hey. -Where are you coming from?

Uh, tennis court. Had a pickup game. You?

I was in the weight room.

-Ah. -Yeah.

It's nice that I ran into you.

It's been a while since we've had the chance to catch up.

Yeah, that's probably on me.

Seems like Carlton and my practice have been getting busy.

We got to put something on the calendar.

Well, we have that event coming up.

Samantha's cotillion? Yeah, I wouldn't miss that.

Martin and I are actually finalizing

our plans for the evening,

and I was wondering if you'd be okay

with sitting at the same table as Nicole?

I thought it'd be nice if you two were together

for your granddaughter's big day.

Sure, no problem.

Are you gonna maybe bring a plus-one?

Uh, I'm not sure.

I mentioned it to Shanice in passing,

but I, uh, I got to give it some thought.

Well, if you do decide to invite Shanice,

I think she's wonderful, so...

I actually talked to her earlier today.

Really?

Yeah. Yeah, she's helping me out with a story.

You know, I... I still have some questions.

Maybe you could help answer them.

? ?

Your cotillion project rules.

Thanks, Jessica.

I don't know, I...

I was kind of...

Well, tell me if I'm sounding jealous,

but when I think about Leslie Thomas

taking credit for the whole thing

when it was my idea in the first place,

I get kind of salty.

No, that's valid.

Pop says that the most important thing

is all the good that it's doing.

Well, way to slay a mental reset,

but you know, if things had gotten too intense

between you and her, I could've stepped in,

done a little conflict resolution.

Your project is so giving me life.

Conflict mediation,

what the world is so thirsty for right now.

The org I'm volunteering for has taught me so much.

I'm already using some of the skills I've learned.

Really?

It's fun helping people solve their problems

without fists and all that drama.

Mm.

JESSICA: I was looking through UCLA's course listings

and found out they have a bunch of relevant classes.

Wait a minute. You said you got into UCLA?

Yeah.

Wow. Congrats, Jessica.

Why didn't you tell me sooner? Like, when I told you

I didn't get into UCLA's engineering school?

Oh, I just found out.

I think UCLA releases their College of Letters and Science

acceptances way later than everyone else.

You're going there?

I haven't made up my mind yet.

As much as we talked about this, you're still unsure?

Well, there's a lot to consider.

I've chosen Banneker.

If you move to Cali, where does that leave you and me?

I never had the chance to talk to you about swiping

Madison's and my wedding venue for Eva.

Child, please. That is geriatric.

Put it on a ventilator.

I gave you back the venue on the date you wanted.

Yeah, you missed the point, Leslie.

Planning a wedding should be a joyous experience

for the people involved.

You messed that up for us.

And now that your daughter has made it clear

that she isn't anywhere near getting married,

I just want to make sure that you won't be sticking

your talents into any other parts of my plans with Madison.

I wasn't even thinking about your little uppity behind,

but now that you're coming and getting all up in my face,

you know, I just might have to reconsider.

Why are you always so antagonistic?

Choosing a school is literally a canon event.

I'm still figuring my life out.

Can you give us a little privacy?

Sure, but first, you have to prove to me

that you're calm enough to do so.

Come on, deep breaths. You know the drill.

-Samantha. -I'm dead serious, Tyrell.

Cool. I am in the mood for a boba tea anyways.

I knew there was a chance you'd get into UCLA.

I'm happy for you, but I thought you'd choose Banneker.

Like I said, still deciding.

If you move all the way across the country,

all the dudes from Baldwin Hills and View Park,

the high-rizz guys, they're gonna want to get with you.

Just them? What about the rest of these guys in this country?

Or what about those international ones?

All of them.

You're hot enough to pull any guy you want. We got to be real.

So what, you're saying we should break up?

No, that's... that's not what I want,

but I figured that's what you wanted.

Listen, if I end up in California,

we can Zoom and FaceTime each other every day.

Long distance won't be that big of a deal.

Besides, I don't want some California dude

or international guy. I just want you.

Me, too.

We do have the house to ourselves.

Yeah, Martin says you're working on some big story.

Yeah, well, there's a medical component

to the piece, so I figured

a surgeon such as yourself might be able to provide some insight.

Okay.

How much interaction do you have with the hospital labs?

Well, I need to send, uh, tests to the lab to make sure

my patients don't have any underlying conditions

that could adversely affect the procedure.

Have you gotten to know any of the lab employees?

Not really. Why?

Well, with a piece like this, sometimes background players

can provide some texture,

some atmosphere, so to speak.

And I'm sure you're well aware

that there's a worldwide blood shortage.

Yeah, sadly, I am, but fortunately for me,

that's mainly outside of the U.S.

Has there ever been a time where you needed blood

for a surgery and it wasn't available?

It's rare. You know, sometimes, there are short-term shortages.

Like?

[stammers]

Natural disaster with a lot of injuries,

you know, wildfire, earthquakes.

They've called me in on one or two times,

back in my early days.

And what-what did you do when that happened?

We, uh, called the local medical facility.

We urged people to donate locally.

But, uh, that doesn't concern me as a plastic surgeon.

Most of my surgeries are elective.

And, uh, if for some reason something happens,

we just wait until the blood is available.

Now, uh, let me ask you a question.

What is this story about?

It has to do with blood donations.

-Uh-huh. -But anyway, yeah,

thank you so much, Ted.

You've been really helpful.

[grunts]

No Dupree has the right to call me antagonistic,

given that Vernon is the one

who did everything short of calling the National Guard

to prevent me from getting my home.

You've got me all wrong,

Little Miss Fashion Plate.

-Do I, though? -Mm-hmm.

Ted's the one who had the affair with you

and then dropped you like a hot potato,

but you have beef with Aunt Nicole,

who never did you wrong.

Oh, little Nicky has done plenty,

including wrap her skinny little fingers around my neck.

Because you baited her and drove her to it.

I know the story.

Wow. You Duprees will let each other off the hook

for the same things that you judge everybody else for.

You basically won the lottery,

thanks to a trust set up by my Gran,

so why not thank her for making it possible

for you to live in the lap of luxury

and move someplace else?

You could really be happy if you just forget

all about my family, but...

you'd rather devote your life to nursing resentments.

Who are you, Iyanla Vanzant?

Let me give you a little life coaching, child.

Contrary to your self-absorbed belief,

my life does not revolve around the Duprees.

See, I have been a fixture

in this community. Yeah.

I have a free clinic.

Trying to buy yourself a decent reputation?

It won't work

because everyone knows that you are

far too selfish to do any real work for the greater good.

You're gonna feel like such an idiot when you realize

how wrong you are about my involvement

in the clinic.

Whatever's going wrong with your campaign-

bad polling numbers,

baseless attacks from your primary opponent-

I am willing to brainstorm a solution.

The issue isn't about my campaign in itself.

Oh?

It's about my home life.

Smitty has asked me to remove the security detail

because it's getting in his way

of an investigative story he's chasing.

Uh...

Why would a security detail even matter to him?

What precisely is Smitty writing about?

He's keeping it hush-hush.

All I know is that it's potentially dangerous.

It seems to me that's even more reason

he should have security.

Agreed. And I'm worried about him.

But?

All the hard work that we put in our marriage

to get on solid footing...

I just have to respect Smitty's wishes.

And the kids?

We're on full agreement about their security detail.

Well, that's a relief.

Although it's difficult,

try not to worry about Smitty, hmm?

Your husband knows how to take care of himself.

Oh, I trust him,

but unfortunately,

I wish I could say the same about Joey Armstrong.

What on earth does Joey have to do with this?

Joey overheard a conversation I was having with Smitty.

Overheard?

We were at the country club, and it got a little heated.

Oh, you had words with Smitty about security.

And Joey offered to have his men

watch Smitty without his knowledge.

How did you respond?

Well, I wanted to tell him to go straight to hell,

but I politely declined.

What would you have done?

Exactly like that.

But Joey doesn't know how to take no for an answer.

No. If he smells blood in the water,

-he's going fishing. -And he's already started.

The guy's not letting go any favors that he's done

for you or me in the past.

-He brought that up? -To Mom.

She and Carlton went on a double date with him and Vanessa,

and Joey cracked a joke about politicians

having bodies buried, sometimes literally.

-A threat. -In front of two witnesses.

He reminded Mom that he has the power

to expose our deepest and darkest secrets.

And honestly, I know I shouldn't even

be thinking about running for Senate in two years.

Joey would just relish having a senator in his pocket.

Don't get ahead of yourself, Martin.

I'm trying not to,

but with the pressure that the party and the donors

are putting on me...

What do you want?

I want to help the people.

I want to make my constituents' lives better

in a way that only a representative

of the people can.

Well, I see you do that every day.

Is it enough for you?

I convinced myself it was.

I'm standing in front of a man who remains unconvinced.

Deep down, I want to rise above the House of Representatives,

especially with people stepping up and opening their wallets.

The Senate is a real possibility,

and as much as I should turn my back,

even considering something so dangerous,

how do you stop from wanting it?

You're acting like there's more than one path.

There isn't.

Whether you run for that Senate seat or not,

your next step is very clear.

Win the primary.

Simple as that.

Because if I lose my congressional seat...

You don't only lose a Senate run,

you also forfeit your chance

to shape what's happening in the here and now.

Leave it to you to give it to me real.

Hey, there's only one thing

to do right now, Martin.

Focus on winning your primary.

Get out the vote,

lock down the endorsements,

and promote the fundraiser.

All that and more.

Because if you want to have any sort

of political future, you must keep that seat.

Thanks, Granddad, for always being my best sounding board.

Dr. Montgomery.

I was gonna give you a call later.

About a neurological consult?

Not this time.

You'll be getting written notice,

but you should know the hospital has been informed

by the state medical board

that you are being sued for malpractice.

That suit is nothing but a bogus cash grab.

Your work here has been excellent,

as far as I'm concerned,

but we do have to take certain steps.

-The Parkinson's project... -Is not being funded by Garland,

however, although the hospital attorneys

have signed off on you continuing your research,

as far as seeing patients goes,

I have to suggest that you take a brief sabbatical.

What? Why?

So I'm not forced to suspend you,

which would be extreme, unfair, and damaging to your career.

-But... -You know hospitals

are as much business as healing.

This is all about making sure Garland

is protected against liability.

Until Legal has an opportunity to look into this case further,

this really is the best course for everyone involved.

Not for my patients.

I'm not a danger to them.

I have never even met this person filing the lawsuit.

I know that, and you know that, but...

Okay, if my attorneys can explain the situation

to the hospital's lawyers, will that be enough

to get my attending privileges back?

Perhaps, but I can't make any promises.

Ah, Mrs. Dupree. How'd it go?

The doctor just scheduled my final chemo session.

Oh, that is music to my ears.

Yours?

Would you pass the good news along

-to your Aunt Monica for me? -Of course.

It was incredibly reassuring to have a physician

of her caliber consult on my case.

She was absolutely brilliant the way she integrated herself

into the team so seamlessly,

it was as if she'd been here for years.

I will surely tell her.

Aunt Monica's not only a kick-ass oncologist,

she is truly one of the best women I know.

I just wish she didn't live so far away.

Let me know the next time she's in town, will you?

So we can discuss the plans

for the new cancer research division

for the Dupree Heritage Foundation.

Ah, congrats on the launch of that.

I will be sure to tell her next time she's here.

-We really... -I need to speak to Lia.

Didn't you notice we were in the middle of a conversation?

You changed some of your posters. Sinners?

Y-Yeah. I'm a total Michael B. Jordan fan.

Me, too.

I hope you didn't come all the way up here

just to tell me my posters hit different now.

I'm interested in seeing what else hits different up here.

? ?

-[door opens] -SMITTY: Anybody home?

No. No, this cannot be happening right now.

I thought both the 'rents were gonna be gone all afternoon.

Damn.

CHELSEA [over phone]: Hey, Madison, what's up?

New developments with the malpractice suit.

Did the patient that you never met change her mind and drop it?

If only.

The chief of staff strongly suggested

that I take a short sabbatical.

That's ridiculous.

Everyone keeps telling me this lawsuit will be dismissed.

My dad and Naomi are confident, okay?

In the grand scheme of things, this will be no big deal.

I'm being barred from treating patients because of it, Chelsea.

I am so sorry, Madison.

I don't know who to be angrier at.

The hospital's lawyers who decided to sideline me,

or the woman who's filing this insane suit,

or my mother who's the reason

I'm being sued in the first place.

I know something that will make you feel better.

[phone chimes]

[door opens]

[door closes]

Uh, where did Tyrell and Jessica go?

I don't think they're home.

[footsteps descend stairs]

Oh, h-hey, Dad. Um, I just ran into Jessica upstairs

when she came out of Samantha's room.

Is that really what you're gonna go with?

You put more into getting me out the house

than you did in that lame-ass cover story.

For the record, they were downstairs

when I left, and when I invited Jessica over

to do cotillion prep, that was sincere.

I wasn't plotting anything with Tyrell,

so please don't ground me.

You're not in trouble.

What about Tyrell?

Uh... He knows that he's not allowed to have anybody

upstairs unless your Pop and I are home.

-I'm sorry. -SMITTY: It's cool.

Really, Dad? That's all you're gonna say?

I think you need to apologize to Shanice for being so rude.

Oh, while I appreciate the assist, Mrs. Dupree,

I can handle myself in this ring.

Since I'm finally strong enough to take care of business,

please allow me.

Apologize.

So "sowwy" to interrupt your little chitter-chatter

by asking Shanicey here

if she can actually do something work-related.

No one works harder than nurses.

Oh, Anita, please.

I've already had a self-righteous lecture

from one Dupree today.

I don't need another one from Our Lady of Eternal Superiority.

ANITA: Obviously, you do,

and you know full well I was not born

with a silver spoon in my mouth.

Every little bit of anything we had was hard won.

And my mother made sure I had some home training

before I left Cabrini-Green.

Then you should consider yourself blessed

because not everyone is fortunate to be raised by,

or to have even had the opportunity

to meet their mother.

-There you are. -I almost didn't come in.

You were so vague about what we'd be doing here.

Warning, if it's yoga,

that won't do a damn thing to calm me down.

It's not even close to that.

I want you to take all your aggression out

on the heavy bag.

I don't even think I have it in me to throw a punch.

I'll show you how.

How do you know about boxing?

My dad taught me how to box before I started modeling.

-As exercise? -As self-defense.

The modeling world isn't all beauty, babe.

There's some very creepy people in that life,

and my dad knew it.

I didn't know that.

When I was kidnapped,

having that in my back pocket not only gave me the skill

to fight Allison, but the confidence to do so.

Knowing how to defend yourself is so empowering.

So, I'm gonna teach you how to fight

so you feel that same confidence about this lawsuit.

How was your appointment?

And don't think I'm gonna let you sneak out on me again.

I intend to start doing things for myself again, my love.

Give you some of your time back and your life.

And my appointment was fine,

but I had a run-in with Leslie

that might have temporarily raised my blood pressure.

Mm.

I had a conversation with Martin that did the same to me.

What kind of conversation?

Well, apparently, Joey Armstrong has offered

to provide security for Smitty.

Martin had the good sense to turn him down.

And we know, when Joey offers a favor,

it's not motivated by altruism,

and it's not simple as turning him down.

I'll have to handle Joey myself.

It's the only way to make sure that he doesn't get

his hooks in any deeper into Martin than he already has.

I can see how tense this has made you.

-Let me fix you a drink. -No, no, no, no, no, no.

No, no. I'll do it myself. I... You preserve your strength.

I am feeling fine.

So, why don't you just sit your handsome behind down

and let me take care of you for a change?

Yes, ma'am.

Your Pop and I will have a talk with you later.

There's stuff I have to handle for work.

No, no. When I got caught with Nathan,

you and Pop acted like the Earth blew its orbit.

You grounded me for an eternity

and took away all my electronics.

Why are you so amped to get me grounded?

What did I do to you?

Besides gaslight me

into making me leave you and Jessica alone?

Nothing. This is about basic fairness.

[door opens and closes]

What's going on?

Tyrell and I committed the exact same crime,

and he's getting treated way easier

than how you guys treated me.

TYRELL: It's not the same at all.

Nathan was scum.

He was just out to put a notch inside of his belt.

Jessica and I have a real relationship,

which Pop and Dad approve of, and which will continue,

no matter where Jessica goes to college.

We just decided that.

I bet you did,

but I don't see how any of that matters.

The rule is about hooking up with someone

in the house unsupervised.

So you guys are okay with your son doing it

but not your daughter?

Oh, this is exactly the type of conflict

I've been learning to resolve.

Okay, so the idea is to make both sides feel heard,

and then find a way to meet in the middle.

So...?

Uh, so, uh, given I had a front-row seat

to Samantha's long and arduous grounding,

you know, I-I bet you guys, as parents,

feel some sort of regret for how harshly you treated her,

and so you wanted to handle things differently.

But to Samantha, who will never get back

those weeks of social life lost, it feels unfair.

Mm-hmm. It's criminal.

JESSICA: Hmm. It seems your two father figures,

in spite of being members of the LGBTQ+ community,

have failed to escape the sexism of the patriarchy.

-You saw all that? -Uh, yeah.

I had a flashback to Anita telling me off

about Dana and Eva.

When she dresses you down, it hurts your very soul.

Yeah, well, Leslie had it coming.

Yeah.

Oop.

Duty calls.

Dr. Whitmore.

I heard you were looking for me, Ms. Thomas.

-Mm-hmm. -But since your mother

is no longer a patient here, I can't imagine why.

Well, this won't take long.

I have some ideas for how to expand the partnership

between the Phoenix Street Free Clinic

and Garland Memorial.

Ah.

Call my assistant and schedule an appointment.

I won't be calling your assistant,

but I will be calling your boss.

What?

Seems like you're really taking it on the chin today.

I'm gonna regret asking this, but, uh...

do you want to talk about it?

What are you doing?

Just wondering what my nails

are gonna look like after this.

Your nails will be fine. Okay, this is a jab.

This is an uppercut.

Okay, now you try.

Jab.

Uppercut.

Again. Jab. Uppercut.

Okay, okay.

So, you want to protect your face,

so keep your hands up. Okay.

Now, hit hard. Jab. Uppercut. Jab. Uppercut.

Let out all that anger and aggression.

Let out all that emotion.

Mm-hmm.

Okay, okay, okay, okay.

I think you're ready for the heavy bag.

The patriarchy?

Every local women's organization

has endorsed me because of my support for women's rights.

Easy to do in theory, Pop, but that support may change

when they realize that, even though you vote

for all the right bills, you're a total chauvinist at home.

That's a bit harsh, Samantha.

However, you two may have some gender-based stereotypes

surrounding teen sexuality.

I mean, when your son does it, it's "boys will be boys."

In fact, you're probably a little proud of him.

But when your daughter does the same thing,

it's like she has to be locked up like Rapunzel

for her own protection.

See? That part.

For the record, we were only kissing.

Just like me and Nathan.

-Uh, hello, condom wrapper. -Yeah.

Uh, hello. He was upstairs with Jessica.

If you guys let Tyrell off the hook,

you're not just misogynists, you're hypocrites.

Please don't put either of those labels on me.

I'm the last person you should accuse

of being tied to gender roles.

I was a stay-at-home dad for years.

Okay, so what I'm hearing from you

is that this conflict will not be resolved

to your satisfaction until there are actual consequences

for Tyrell.

And what I'm hearing from your fathers

is that their sexist behavior was completely unintentional,

and you'd like your daughter to cut you some slack

for falling victim to toxic masculinity.

Okay, Jessica,

you've made a persuasive argument,

so fine, we'll punish Tyrell.

Okay, tell me what's going on.

Okay. It's just that this thing with Anita

got me thinking about how much I missed out on

by not having Barbara in my life.

I mean, it's unfair

that I did not get to know my mother.

And it's unfair that Eva grew up without her father.

All right, listen, I have so many regrets

about how I was hiding Eva's existence

from you for so long. All right?

Thankfully, though, you get to make up for lost time.

Yeah, that's what I've been trying to do.

It's, uh, coming up on a year

since I found out Eva was my daughter.

The anniversary to the anniversary party

that instigated the death of my marriage to Nicole.

Okay, yeah.

You know, we have really done some things to hurt each other.

But here we are.

Being all compassionate

and caring with each other.

-We've come a long way. -Yes, we have.

Aren't you my girlfriend?

You're not supposed to get me in trouble.

Uh, sorry. I just really wanted to resolve a conflict.

Now it's resolved. Great.

You know, maybe

we should tell Jessica's parents about what happened.

-Oh, no, that's good. I'm okay. -So what's my sentence?

-You're grounded for... -Until the cotillion.

What?

That's no time at all. The patriarchy lives.

As my plus-one for cotillion,

he is expected to come to a couple of rehearsals this week.

He can at least make it to those, right?

I'm gonna be grounded. I won't be able to go.

Oh, with that, you made a commitment,

so your Pop and I will make sure that you honor it.

I'd rather be locked up in my room.

You would?

Yes. It'll give me a break from you two.

Yes.

Who knew that would be so amazing?

You nearly knocked the bag off the hook.

[phone buzzing]

Ugh. It's my mother.

Wouldn't a normal person figure that if someone keeps

ignoring your calls, they don't want to talk to you?

Well, since ignoring Willow isn't working,

how about I handle it?

Would you?

Hi, Willow. This is Chelsea.

Madison isn't interested in hearing from you.

She needs you to respect her wishes.

No. No, I won't be passing along any messages.

Any communication about the lawsuit

will come from Madison's attorneys.

Best fianc�e ever.

Thank you so much.

You said everything that needed to be said

just as it should be said.

You take such good care of me.

Come here.

It's so nice to be able to take care of you for a change.

Like you, I'm capable of caring for myself.

Of course you are.

But taking care of each other is what we do best.

Mm.

You got that right.

Ted can't seem to keep his hands off me.

Look, I was just offering her a shoulder to lean on

because what Anita said seemed to really get to her.

Leslie instigated that whole little tiff.

Even so, she's still a human being.

[scoffs] I'm-a keep my mouth shut on that one.

Look, today, I caught a glimpse of the woman who I first met.

Back then, she wasn't always on the attack.

Oh, well, she sure is now.

That woman makes a conscious choice to be hateful.

I feel like I brought that mean, unpleasant side out of her

when I dropped her. I just shoved her to the side.

I feel like I owe it to Dana to extend some grace

to the woman she is today.

Well, when that urge goes away, you let me know.

? ?
