Left, right, you do not know what
success like. If you do it right,

college can be a time to discover your
true purpose.

Take Doug. Cal U helped him to discover
that his true purpose wasn't just going

to the bar with his friends, but
creating a bar for his friends.

Brother.

Thank you so much. Of course. Oh, my
gosh. I needed this after everything

that's happened.

I can't believe Brock got arrested and
kicked out of the game. I know.

Apparently, he was wiring money from Cal
U's financial aid office into a bunch of

side gigs, including Andre Johnson
Entertainment, which is why the police

brought me in. Luckily, they cleared my
name because they found a PDF on his

laptop labeled Andre Johnson fake
signature.

The boy's a criminal and an idiot. Yeah.

So whatever, though. You know, I'm off
the hook. Everything's back to normal.

Your boy is unscathed. Good.

So, uh, what do you think about the
drink, man? It's called the Darnell.

Named after my dad, Darnell. He's coming
into town, and he's gonna be seeing the

bar for the first time, so I'm just
trying to make sure every little thing

is extra special.

Yeah, it's not bad.

Old school, strong, with a hint of
sweetness.

Just like my dad. I mean, he never
believed working at a bar was, like, a

legitimate career. He owns a bunch of
buildings in the Bronx, and he thinks,

unless you have a nine-to-five, it's,
like, less than respectable.

That's why I can't wait for him to see
the dugout so he can finally see

everything that I've built here.

I'm sure he'll be impressed, dude. Yeah?
Yeah.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Since when did health inspectors dress
like the damn Jonas Brothers?

Oh, those aren't health inspectors.

They're investors.

They saw the Dugout review and want to
buy the bar. And they're bringing all of

their own people.

Wait, so they want you to sell and then
kick us out? How could they think you

would ever do that?

Well, because I am.

Look, I'm really sorry, Doug.

Look at us, boss.

More than a mess.

Watch out, world.

I'm grown now.

I'm proud.

Learn something new every day.

I don't know, so I'ma feel my way.

Got the weight of the world.

But boy, Chris, this is what I say.

Watch out, world.

Girl, now.

You can't tell me.

Mama, please.

Mama,

love. Girl, now.

Man,

I cannot believe this.

I'm really about to be ousted?

Bro. Think about it this way. The only
reason that the investors want to buy

the bar is because of the amazing job
that you did.

You made this happen, bro. You.

Andre.

Um, I... You're here.

I got your tag.

Um, glad you're not in jail. Yeah,
totally.

Me too.

So, uh... Well, um...

I gotta go. My condolences about the
bar, bro.

If y'all are being weird because you
know Kiela and I dated, and you two just

had a threesome, I don't care. Truly.
Can we focus on the actual love of my

life? Bro, nothing is weird. I'm just
trying to leave. Where are your straws?

Oh, jeez.

Sorry.

Woo!

Boys, I am back.

That was rough.

I just spent an hour and a half getting
questioned about what I am now calling

little Guantanamo, but as you can see, I
am unscathed. Andre, glad to see you and

all, but we need to talk about Brock's
arrest.

Oh, I was actually just cleared, so we
good.

Not so much. Frat phone thin ice with
Cal U, we can't associate with someone

in a judicial entanglement. It's not a
good look.

Is it coming from the guy who can't get
served at Chipotle?

Well, we think you should distance
yourself from the gambits for a few days

until this blows over.

I'm sorry, dude.

All good. Yeah, yeah, no, all good. I'll
keep my distance, for sure. You got to

call me an astronaut, because I'm going
to be giving y'all space, man.

Houston, we have no problem.

Damn, you need a new laptop, girl.

How am I supposed to nap around here
when it sounds like LAX Terminal 4?

I am applying for this summer abroad
program in Portugal.

Now that I'm no longer pre-med, it's
time to have some fun.

That sounds fancy.

Actually, it's super cheap, which is
perfect, because I am hashtag cut off.

Plus, they have amazing food, amazing
bars, beautiful women.

Ew. I have to write a whole essay on
what would I gain by going there?

Sounds like 10 pounds of diseased liver
and a girlfriend.

And I have to get an academic advisor to
sign off?

Oh, why don't you just use ChatGPT and
have Aaron approve it?

Done deal.

Yeah, that is brilliant.

Thank you.

It was her time.

Hey, hey, hey, why does it smell like
Bath and Body Works took a dump in here?

I'm just doing some finishing touches
before my dad comes. Wait, what?

What did you say, Dee's coming?

Beth, I know you shared a moment when we
all went to dinner last year, but... Let

me set the theme for you.

It's a quiet night.

Love within the air.

We read Olive Garden, Unlimited
Breadstick, Alfredo's Father. Brother,

I'm going to need you to reel it in. I'm
sorry. It's too much. It's just I'm good

with parents. And do not mention the
investors, all right? I'm still trying

to get him on board with the whole bars,
the career path. And if he finds out how

I lost this place, he'd take his belt
off.

So you're just going to lie to your dad
about this forever?

Not forever. Just until he dies.

Solid plan.

Yo, Dad.

My man, A-Rod. How you doing, man? Good
to see you, man.

Son?

I named a drink after you. Darnell.

I wish you named a bank account after
me.

Way too much whiskey, son.

And I can't wait to show you my biggest
accomplishment thus far.

How long are you in town for, man? We
should have a catch or something. I'm

around. We'll get it in. Okay. It's good
to see you, my man.

Wish my dad would say that to me.

So, the Gammas need some space for me.
That is fine. Because you know what? I'm

going to go kick it with my girls. And
by girls, I mean THE Golden Girls.

Season 5 is fire!

Word must have gotten out about this
whole Brock thing because my clients are

asking more questions and wanting even
more answers.

Even coal's blowing me up.

Andre, does this sound like me?

Portugal's known for codfish, a food
I've always identified with because it

is both salty and firm.

I've got bigger fish to fry, Zada.
There's an article.

Oh, we saw.

Cal UConn men.

Yeah, and now the Gammas want nothing to
do with me, and all of my clients are

dropping me. I mean, you know, it's not
your fault, but it also is kind of your

fault. You just need to be more careful
about who you get into bed with.

Maybe you could write a rebuttal.

I don't have time for the written word.
My business is on the line.

I know what I'm going to do.

I'm going to go on live.

Ooh, I don't know.

IG Lives are like a lot of pressure.
They're the number one cause of

cancellations. Well, that and rampant
racism.

OK. Aside from that, you guys know I'm
in my bag when I'm off the cuff, OK?

I've got this.

Thank you, though.

He is tragic under pressure.

Have you seen his driver's license
photo?

The worst.

All right.

Dad, welcome to the dugout.

It's not too shabby.

In fact, it's very sophisticated for a
college bar.

And you own a stake in this?

Uh, yeah.

Yep, sure do. And I picked out
everything from the glasses, the menu,

to the lights. I mean, and you should
see the kind of artists we get down

here. Big names.

Come, just chill.

Yep, yep. And I organize the faculty
karaoke night here.

You know, my president is going to see
my office.

I've got a great parking spot.

Well, you know something? When you told
me about this bar thing, I had my

doubts. But I have to say...

You built something worthwhile here, and
you were making a solid future for

yourself. Well, I'm just getting
started.

I got big plans, you know. Yeah, that's
what I like to hear.

Yeah. I thought I heard voices down
here.

Wait, you must be Doug's dad.

I'm Ray, Doug's boss. Hey.

Or should I say former boss, right? Dad,
don't you have some stuff to do back at

the hotel? Uh, excuse me.

Former boss?

Yeah. Doug whipped the bar into such
great shape that some investors

approached me about buying.

And I agreed to sell.

Was that so?

Yeah.

Because as of a minute ago, my son, a
stakeholder, was unaware of this sale.

Well, first of all, I told Doug... Whoa,
whoa, hey, are these investors even

legit? I mean... Yeah, they are.

A lawyer sent over a contract.

Sounds like a can.

God bless, man. I don't know what's
going on here, but the sale's going

through. And legally, there's nothing
that Doug or anybody else can do about

it. All right?

Sup y'all, what is going on? So I've
just been hearing some rumors twirling

around about me being engaged in some
illicit activities. And I wanted to get

on here and set the record straight.

So no, I did not wire any money, nor did
I know about any money being wired from

the financial aid office.

Oh my gosh, look at you guys. I see
those thumbs up in those hearts. Thank

you so much for the love and the
support.

If you're telling the truth, How did you
afford such a nice-ass chain?

This was actually a gift from my mother
for graduating middle school. Thank you

for noticing.

Ha, there's no way that somebody could
be that ignorant. You were ob's an

accomplice. Okay, so just because you're
an accomplice doesn't mean that you know

you're an accomplice. Dogs don't know
that they're dogs. It happens.

Okay, I didn't victimize anyone. I am
the victim here.

Oh, Rich Boy wants us to feel bad for
him. People are dying.

Okay, we are completely losing the
thread here. You guys are just a bunch

of trolls. You don't know anything about
my life.

We know that you have ashy ass knuckles,
little boy.

Why did Ray say there was legally
nothing you could do?

You're partial owner.

You know, when I said Ray gave me a
steak, I meant...

Like a handshake deal.

Look, I'm sorry. I just wanted you to be
proud of what I've done.

I've worked hard.

Really hard.

Life is tough, son.

We all get knocked down.

But I believe that you can get back up
and do very well.

You do? I do.

Which is why I advise you come back home
to New York and you join the family

business.

Come home?

Yeah.

No, I feel like I finally found my thing
here.

I couldn't leave all of this behind.

Well, unfortunately, you don't have much
of a choice, brother.

It has already left you.

But I've got that great building uptown
that could really use your eye.

Yeah, I guess.

Hey, you were making the right choice,
son.

Thank you for meeting with me. I just
need your signature at the bottom. All

right.

What are you doing?

Just reading it. Why? I just need a
little signature, a little John Hancock,

a little squiggle squiggle. Portugal is
the number one producer of cork, and as

someone who makes a lot of vision
boards, cork is symbolic of my hopes and

dreams.

You don't know me.

Okay.

Yeah, look, I'm under a lot of scrutiny,
extra scrutiny, since my promotion,

okay? So if you want me to sign off on
this, you gotta dig deep.

This tells me why AI wants you to go,
but not why you want to go.

I didn't use AI.

What's the capital of Portugal?

New Portugal?

Right.

There you go.

Look, Ray, I put too much of myself into
this place.

Oh, you don't give a shit.

All right, cool.

I guess I'm moving back to New York.

You're moving?

All our favorite booths still be here?

We just got this plaque made.

Look, man, I hope you could get a
refund, but I made a dumb move and lost

the bar.

So I'm going to have to go work for my
dad now.

Damn. You're really going to let this
place go that easily?

Your baby?

That's a weak-ass, deadbeat father shit,
dude. I don't have a choice.

Well, you do.

Not everyone gets lucky and finds their
thing, Doug.

Yeah. And when you figure it out, you
got to fight for it.

Now, where are your pirate tools at?

Never mind. We'll find them.

Okay, despite your doubt, I crushed the
live and I spoke my truth.

Yeah, yeah, maybe I lost my cool a
little bit when that hater insulted my

eczema, but other than that, I nailed
it.

What'd you think?

Oh, um, I think you totally killed it.
Like straight man-plotter. Thank you,

thank you. Hey, uh, before we stop and
get coffee, the Gammas actually asked if

I could swing by the house. Seems like
somebody saw my live and wants little

old Andre back.

Okay. What's up for my nose? What's
crackin'? Andre, you're out of

the fray.

Sorry, Andre.

We asked you to distance yourself, and
instead you wore our letters while

further attaching yourself to the crime.

I got cold, and I put on the nearest
thing to me. I didn't even realize.

Well, your iron-deficient blood made you
violate the gamma rules and put our

reputation at risk.

I just... You guys know that I would
never... I can't lose you guys. Please.

Sorry, man. We made our decision.

Okay.

Um... Should we just go?

Wait, are you really gonna do this?

Ostracize a brother at his lowest point?

And Andre?

A guy who has always told the truth,
even if it's gonna hurt his reputation?

That's not the kind of person who would
knowingly entangle himself in a crime,

or purposely make the gammers look bad.

Face it, Andre's the type of person
you're lucky to be around.

Come on, let's get out of here.

Also... Crack a window.

It smells like burps in here.

Hey, guys.

Thank you for meeting with me.

You said Ray wanted to treat us to
dinner in the downstairs with a secret

tunnel to Ruth's Chris?

Yes. I'm sorry. I just wanted to talk to
you. Look, despite what the reviews say,

I'm the one that makes this bar what it
is.

All right? So if you want to preserve
the soul of the dugout, you want to be

working with me and not Ray.

Well, Ray has a deed.

What do you have? Ask me any questions.
I know this place inside and out.

All right.

What's your current overhead?

$16,780 a month.

What's your best-selling product?

Smokey Paloma. What color are my eyes?

Let me look you in those creamy hazel
irises and tell you this.

I love this bar with all my heart. And
yes, you may be investing financially,

but there's no one who ever has or will
invest more than me emotionally.

So I propose to you...

Name me manager and grant me partial
equity.

This is my baby and I deserve to raise
it.

I will be back soon. I'm going to hand
in this new and improved Portugal essay.

I locked myself in my room for hours
thinking about why I really wanted to go

abroad. I realized every decision that
I've made until this point has been

dictated by pre-med, which was someone
else's dream. Now that I'm on my own

path, I can make whatever choice I want.

I'm finally free.

Yes, it's giving Britney.

If I want to spend my Mondays taking
shots instead of administering them, I

can. And if I want to spend my modeling
money going abroad, I'm gonna preach.

For the first time ever, my future isn't
laid out for me.

I'm more happy for you, Dada.

I am a little bit jealous, though. You
don't have to be. You should come.

To Aaron's office?

No, bitch, to Portugal.

Yo, where you been, Dad?

The hotel only has tri-folded towels,
none of the cute origami ones, and it

turned into a whole thing.

Well, I, uh...

Pitched myself to those investors and
proposed I manage the bar to receive

equity. And guess what?

They agreed.

You did what?

Yeah, no, you don't have to worry. I
signed a contract, so it worked out

well. I don't got to move back home.

So you went against my advice, huh?

You took a risk on something that was
way over your head.

Pitching yourself to investors behind
your boss's back.

You know you could have burned Bridges,
Douglas.

Worse, you could have made a fool of
yourself.

I'm sorry, Dad.

And I couldn't be more proud of you.

You were following your purpose.

And I will be here cheering you every
step of the way. You hear me?

Thank you, Dad.

My man.

Come on, make us a couple of Darnells.
Oh, you want the Darnell now?

Yes, yes. Oh, and there's not too much
whiskey? You can cut back on the

whiskey. It's satisfactory to your
liking. You know, a little something.

You know, thank you so much for what you
said earlier.

I now know who I should trust.

The real ones forgive you, and the even
realer ones defend you.

You made a mistake, but, you know, that
doesn't take away from the fact that you

are the most thoughtful and passionate
guy I know.

Well, stop.

Plus, I had to call those idiots out.
Men under 25 really shouldn't be left

alone. Not at all.

General! Hello!

What's up, man? Yo!

What's up?

We voted and we decided...

We're not gonna kick you out.

But you are on probation.

You're a solid brother and we don't want
to lose you over Brock's mess.

Oh my god, thank you, man.

Yo, yo, yo.

Don't thank me.

Thank no Sir Nick.

He was the deciding vote.

Come on, bring it in, bring it in.

Bring it in, bring it in.

Oh, just rubbing together.

Look at that. That's right. I gotta say,
it does feel good to be back with the

game. It's good to have you back,
brother. Come on now.

Yeah,

we gotta bounce.

Wow. Even in hard times, you can always
depend on your friends to go through.

Still right.

Oh, my God.

Cole's texting me again.

I didn't want to kick you when you were
down earlier, but I've given it a lot of

thought, and I'm dropping you as my
manager.

I'm sorry, man.

I can't believe this.

Don't panic.

It's just one client.

No, it's not just one.

I've lost everyone.

That's not true.

You still have, you know, Annika and Vic
and Zara and

me.

You're not even my client.

The thing about purpose, once it smacks
you on the lip, you'll never want to let

it go.

Doing y'all's laundry is probation?

I've got this on lock.

Okay, I don't mind washing your stuff,
but please, if it is underwear, place it

in the bin. Thank you.

Oh my... No shirt, Nick.

When do you even wear all these?

Oh!

Oh! That has gotta be Big Boy.

I hate that I know whose this is.
