College is all about independence.

It's where we learn to do things on our
own, like laundry, managing your

schedule, or for me, starting my own
business.

Big Frank, 23 sacks last season.

Dude, they're going to have to name a
wing of the ER after you. Tell me, what

is your workout routine?

Well, first, I start with 200 push-ups,
and then I wake up.

Okay.

Lately, life has been forcing me to
become more independent.

Whether it's my dad not supporting me,
or someone I thought was a brother

betraying me.

Bro, don't talk to me like I'm a little
kid. I don't need to be patronized. And

unlike you, I've actually lived in the
real world. And now you're back from the

real world.

And where are you living? In my house,
rent-free, right?

I've been having a rough go of it. But
in the letdowns, I have been finding my

comeuppance.

You're the squid, starting with signing
the crown jewel of my company.

And I use that momentum to line up a
bunch of other meetings with uncut gems

to potentially add to my roster.

Thank you. Oh, no, bro.

Let me tackle this bill.

So, Cara, do you have a number of
followers you're trying to get to? Um,

I'm not really good with numbers, but
I've always felt that more is better.

Agreed. And now I know what you're
thinking.

But Big Daddy Andre, aren't you scared
to go broke?

And my answer is, yes.

But scared money don't make no money.

So success isn't free. And when you're
flying solo, you're stuck footing the

bill. So right now, it's very one for
all. And I need it to be a little bit

more all for one. See, my clients rely
on me for all of their needs.

And these bitches are needy.

Wow, Pro West Bank has gotten quite
comfortable.

I need an ambassador, like now.

Every good experience with these Johnson
guys.

What's up, brother? Yo.

Yo, how's that partnership with you and
Ray going?

I'm pretty lucky, man. I mean, Ray's
been dependable, and I've been getting

some good opportunities at the dugout.

But you're not satisfied with that.

You want a bigger slice of the pie,
right?

No. Do you see that sign downstairs?

It's pretty big.

Look, man, I just need to borrow some
money.

Look, why don't you reach out to one of
your Gamma brothers that haven't

partnered up already? Just... Not my
Ray.

You need to find your own Ray. Know I
have good advice?

Aaron. No.

Look, bro, he gives good advice. Why not
him? All right? He did his thing

fundraising for the gamblers and getting
them scholarship money. I was tricked

into doing that by Aaron. Bro, you need
to let the past be the past and be

mature enough to let it go.

Oh, my God.

What's up?

What's up?

Okay. I know you guys have had your
differences, but I'm going to need you

two to put your differences aside and be
adults.

I need my boys to be here for me. I've
set my differences all the way to the

side. Mine are so far to the side,
they're actually in the back.

Okay, I'm being serious right now. I
have it on good authority that a critic

from the Times is coming. Oh?

Which Times?

The good one.

And the grading criteria is ambiance,
food, and drink, okay? You have an

entire staff trained in hospitality.

Why do you need our help? This is a huge
opportunity.

I need my day one's there to hold me
down. All right, I'm gonna hold you

down. I'm gonna hold you down. Firm
grip. Two hands. Don't worry. Well, I'll

hold you down like gravity.

Thank you. This is what I needed to
hear. That's the love.

So, how can I... I guess, how can we
help?

I'm going to need a packed house full of
impressive individuals. Aaron, for you,

that's intelligentsia, authors,
professors.

You heard him.

That's me, cream of the crop.

All right, and now, Andre, I need you to
bring the good vibes, okay? All of your

best Gamma Brothers here. The best ones,
though, the ones that they put on the

brochure, not the ones you crop out. I'm
sorry, so what you're saying is I bring

the fun. Did you hear that, Aaron? I'm
the fun one. I did not hear that. That's

exactly it. Day one.

So we need to be on the same page. We're
not even in the same library right now.

All right.

Your powers combined will give me an
A-plus review in the Times.

You got it. May the best man win.

Oh, the best man will win.

I'm the best man.

I need to win.

All of my client wooing dug me into a
hole, but luckily, I'm about to climb

out with three magic words.

Increase credit limit.

To be clear, you're a student. Your
current job is hopeful CEO. You don't

pay rent because you've got a deal, and
you want your credit limit doubled?

Yeah. Yep. That is what we've been
talking about for the past 20 minutes.

Time is money.

OK. So we've just been trying to figure
out how you have a credit card here at

all.

You all right?

Yes. I'm great.

I'm good.

Is that a blood stain? No.

No.

OK. Excellent. What's good?

Everything. The boy just got invited to
our party. Basil Miami.

Are you kidding me?

Let's go.

What? A week ago, you were spray
painting the library at school, and now

you're going to be featured in one of
the biggest art shows in the world? What

can I say? We better make it rain. Let's
go.

Woo! We're going to make it rain, bro.

Oh, yeah, man.

By the way, we're late on our late fees.

The deadline was yesterday, and I was so
busy being excited that I forgot to tell

you. So all good.

And some supplies.

Anyone need a place to stay?

Solid. Of course. Right? Cool.

I mean, I totaled it all up. It should
be like $4,000, $5,000.

Let's say $5,000. Let's say $5,000. I
like that. You know, $5,000 is one of my

favorite numbers.

That's kind of crazy that you said that.
I was in here with the $5,000.

I don't have a lot of money. If it's too
much, I can go. Bro, are you kidding me?

It's all good. That's light work for a
dude like me. Okay? Half a loaf? What?

We'll get that done?

It's like a dream come true, man.

I don't even know how to thank you, bro.

Has anyone ever told you you are the
best manager?

Dude, stop. No, no, no. You are the best
friend.

Oh, well. Knock,

knock. Hey, Professor Jackson, come on
in.

Sit on down.

I was just thinking about you.

You know what's crazy?

A mere year and a half ago, we were
sworn enemies.

But now we're like Cal U's version of
Kevin Hart and The Rock.

Yeah. You know what? I will take Kevin
Hart because you've been my rock this

past year.

And in honor of that, I'd like to invite
you to drinks tonight. How's that sound?

Isn't this serendipitous?

Okay. Anyway, I'm waiting for the ink to
dry on a deal, but I may have something

very good for us to celebrate soon.
Something that I couldn't have made

happen without you. Me? Yes.

Okay.

Time to celebrate. Let's go Jumanji in
this bitch.

I don't get the reference.

But you can explain it to me over there.

Gentlemen, we just got invited to go to
a very exclusive event at the dugout.

And I was told to bring only the best of
the best.

Before you ask, food will be free and
drinks will be half off. So exclusive.

What's the vibe? Is it more so like
shade room or like a TMZ type?

You split the difference.

What's the time on this? You know, I got
a hard out soon, so.

Damn! That's a nice-ass watch.

Is Brock wealthy?

Peep the limited edition off-white
shoes.

And did y'all see the clarity on those
Cuban links?

I think I found myself a new business
partner.

Yo, Kelly, can I ask your advice on
something?

Do you promise to take it?

No. But what do you think about getting
into bed with one of your very rich

friends?

I mean, financially speaking, of course.

Oh, um, Andre, I'm like flattered, but,
you know, all my money is actually tied

up in a trust right now. Oh, no.

No, no, no. I'm talking about my
fraternity brother, Brock.

Oh. Okay, thank God, because I lied to
you. I have all my money. Are you sure

you want a partner? I know you've kind
of been writing solo, and partnerships

can be difficult, especially with a
friend. Well, he's more than my friend.

He's like a brother to me.

What's better than partnering with
family?

Didn't your dad just tell you no? I'm
talking about chosen family.

Oh, okay. People who chose me.

Cielo, will you please tell this man
that peonies and lilies do not match?

Okay, it's my night, and I say it's
done. Okay, now, which one goes best

with my fist?

You're wearing a tuxedo? Okay.

Wow. Is it too subtle? Or should I have
went for the top hat?

Yo.

Yo, yo, yo, yo. You put that on.

Yo.

Yo, it's almost overwhelming to look,
honestly.

I mean, you are giving, you're giving
Bruce Wayne, right? You're giving James

Bond, Mr.

Darcy, right? You're bewitching my, my
mind. My mind and my soul have never

seen something as exquisite. Okay, okay,
but no, no, seriously, guys, remember,

food, drink, ambiance, okay?

Support me.

I support you. Yes, sir. We all support
you. Just let me in. But me the most.

Take that away.

No peeing. No, no, that's not needed.

Thank you.

Okay,

he's here. Andre, I need you to turn
things all the way up with the gammas,

but not too much.

Precision turn level incoming.

Okay. Sweet Kiela, I need you on
Hawkeye.

Hawkeye vision, okay? Make sure that the
table is facing Aaron's with the dean.

Copy that. Okay. What can I do?

Do what you do best. Mm-hmm.

Have a blast with that man.

I'm about to light this bitch up. You
understand me?

Celebration time?

Engage.

Another round for the impressive
gentleman.

Oh, thank you, sir.

Cheers. Cheers to the bright futures of
tomorrow.

Hear, hear.

I bet you're probably wondering what all
this news is about.

No, not at all. Just every waking moment
since you mentioned it, yes.

Well, the wait is over, because I have
just secured a seat on the board for Pro

West Bank.

That's it? Yeah.

I mean, wow, okay. That's very cool.
Congrats.

What does that mean exactly?

Well, it means I'll be going to work
about once a month. It means I'll be

leaving school. And it means I'll be
making lots of money.

How's that good news for me?

It's good news for all black men.

Really? Because it sounds like it's only
good news for one black man in

particular, that being you. What
happened to the change the world shit

that you were talking about? Come on,
don't go all Marcus Garvey on me. We

made change, and now I'm making dollars.

I owe you a lot of credit.

When the bank learned that I raised $5
million in an afternoon?

You know, the worst thing is, it's not
that you're stepping on my head for your

own personal gain. Jack, don't get all
dramatic.

The worst thing is that I actually
thought you were my ally here, my

friend.

That's what I get for shaking hands with
the devil, right?

You know, I gave you my barber's number,
man. His direct line.

Here you go.

That was crazy.

Yeah, sorry.

Damn.

Y'all might hold the shit out of us, the
biscuits.

Is that better good?

What was that?

I'm sorry. Look, I just got the worst
news from Dean Carnegie, and I just, I

can't believe he'd screw me over like
that. No, no, no, no, no. You couldn't

wait to go off on him until after you
were strategically sitting in front of

the credit? Look, I'm sorry, but don't
worry.

I'm going to make up for this.

I got you.

How we doing? You having a good time?

Yo.

What's up, my brother? Of course.

What are you working on?

I've been so inspired lately, dude.

You know what I'm saying? I've been
drawing something up. It's 14 by 10.

inches or feet feet you know i don't
believe in a metric system man okay so

we'll we'll have to pay for that and
then the supplies and shipping so so

what are we looking at like around two
racks at least okay

fantastic i'll catch up with you in a
bit

What's going on, playboy? How you doing?

You enjoying the night so far? Is this
exclusive enough for you? Could be a few

more biddies, but, you know, I'm having
a good time.

You know what?

Let's keep the good times rolling, all
right? We got to link up more, though.

Yeah, yeah.

We should. You know, and also, speaking
of linking up, you strike me as a smart,

savvy kind of guy, you know?

Someone who'd be interested in a
mutually beneficial business

partnership, something that works great.

I guess we'll just... Get everything
ironed out. End, end, end.

Dude, you had me at hello.

I don't think I said hello. You've been
wheeling and dealing for the past few

weeks in the chapter room. You got a lot
going on.

Yeah. I just want to be around when it
goes down.

So what you're saying is you want to
invest in Andre Johnson Entertainment

with me, and in turn, you get to be in
the room where it happens. Yeah, you got

yourself a deal, partner.

All right, then. Yeah.

Wow.

That was a lot easier than I thought it
was going to be.

It's always great when someone
recognizes you for all that you do.

Hey, hey, hey. Sorry, guys. Pardon me
for one second.

I'm actually in the middle of something.

I need you to take these lobster roll
corn dogs over to table 10, just real

quick. Why can't you do it?

Because Dean Carnegie's over there, and
we're beefing right now, and I don't

feel like talking to him. Oh, okay. All
right, so this is you getting it done

with your own two hands. Well, lucky for
Doug, I'm here.

I'm always here.

Dependable Andre.

That's me. If you don't take these
lobster roll corn dogs over to where

Dean Carnegie's sitting in three
seconds, I'm going to drop them. One. Go

ahead. Drop it. I'm going to drop them
like it's hot, too.

No, you won't, because you're a bitch.

Two and three quarters.

Two and a half.

That's backwards.

I didn't get my Ph.D. in math, all
right? You don't have a Ph.D. at all. Ph

.D. in math. What Ph.D.? Well, what is
it?

You guys are causing a scene.

Go upstairs for a chat.

By chat, I mean yell.

See what you did?

There are times in your life when you
realize you've really screwed someone

over.

Especially when they're screaming,
You've screwed me over!

Over and over again.

It's times like these that really put
things into perspective and make you

realize that some shit just isn't worth
risking that bond.

I put everything into this bar.

And all I needed you both to do was to
put your differences aside so I can have

one night. You know, unlike you two
having it out at the Cal U bike rack

like a couple of middle schoolers, I'm
in the real world, making real risks. I

needed you guys to be my guys tonight.

You're totally right.

We messed up.

I'm really sorry, man. I know what it
feels like to be abandoned by someone

you thought you could depend on, and I
don't want to be that to my friends.

We should have been there for you.

Should have all been there for each
other.

So what, now you guys are cool?

It's all good?

Yeah. I mean... Wait, no, actually,
there was one more thing. I was

wondering, could you sing When You Wish
Upon A Star for us?

Boy, I'd see it now.

Jiminy Cricket, that is it.

Yeah? Funny.

Yeah? That's where we want to take it?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, man. We
took it too far. No disrespect at all.

Serious question. Honest, serious? No,
for real. Let's be serious.

What's life like as a peanut?

You think you could get me a fair deal
on Park Place?

Okay. Why? Because you a bum living on
the Gamma Couch? Gamma Couch?

You have a weak lumbar, dude. You might
as well move back to the crib.

Are you sure?

Yeah. So I haven't changed my mind about
what you did with Carnegie. Well, I

have. All right, backing Carnegie was
not the best move.

I got to break up with my barber. I love
Daryl.

Damn. Yeah, that's tough.

You know, I got to get my haircut if you
want to come to mine.

Sure. Oh, really cute. I guess tonight
isn't a bust anymore if I get you two to

get along.

Maybe tonight wasn't a bust at all. I
feel like I can fix things with the

critic. Let me just whip up a strong
margarita. Oh, he left. He said he had a

great time. He gave me, like, a fat tip
and is going to give the bar an A-plus

review. This is what happens when you
have a crew. This is what happens when I

have my crew. Thank you.

Wait. No, I...

Are you for real? This is what happens
when you have Kiela. Because I did this,

which is why I will be taking the next
two weeks off fully paid. Bye.

Yep.

You know, we're hitting up a strip club
later. Student discount vibe.

Trying to roll?

I wish I could, but I told Doug I would
stay behind and help him clean up.

Will you guys have fun?

See? That's why you're a good business
partner.

Your gamma.

So,

I guess you're partnering up with H&R
Brock, huh?

I'm afraid to answer in fear of another
lecture.

No, okay, no more lectures. I have
spoken my piece.

Wow, you're actually growing.

Okay, one more piece of advice, though.

Try to learn from the disaster that was
you working with Annika.

You know, you're in a partnership now,
and it's not just about you. You have to

listen. And compromise.

Just can't help but to look out for
people, huh?

Only people I care about.

You, uh, you missed the spot, by the
way.

What?

I was just making sure she didn't trip.

I used to think depending on someone
else was a sign of weakness.

But I've learned there's no shame in
asking for help.

That's what brothers are for.

Support.

Whether that be financial,

Or emotional.

Or libational.

Thank you, sir.

Best brothers I could ever have. Cheers.

And that's how you know who you can
really depend on. No matter how hard the

relationship bends, it never breaks.

I'm back.

Oh, it's good to be back.

Although I was starting to get used to
the smell of stale beer and abject

horniness. Well, there's no stale beer
here, but you might want to vacuum in

your bedroom because there's still some
cat hair in there. A cat? Yeah. You see,

it was feral.

I was lonely.

And I named him Andre Jr. Jr.

By the way, I heard you broke your love
pump.

Where's your that?

It doesn't matter. It's a long story,
but I need to talk about it.

I've got all morning.
