Oh! How did my baby
get to be so sneaky?

-What now?
-Only you

could turn what was supposed
to be breakfast in bed

into lunch in bed,
and if you keep it up,

we're gonna be in these sheets
come dinnertime.

Well, you woke up
looking like this.

What's a man to do?

I'm definitely gonna
have a lot to talk about

when the cameras start rolling.

The Tia Allen interview.
Remember?

I'm kidding. Hey.

I would never share
our intimate details.

People are supposed to have
your name on their lips anyway,

-not me.
-Babe.

I know that the Forrester
campaign was a no go

because you didn't want
to steal focus,

but this isn't a shoot.

This is an interview.

You won't be striking poses,
you'll be talking.

By my side.

I don't know, Dani.

Come on.

We get to control
how the world sees us.

Create our own narrative.

People are gonna fall in love
with our love story.

And being the power couple
that we are,

it's gonna pay off
in dividends

-for both of our careers.
-[phone vibrating]

Oh.

What's up, Sissy?

I need you to meet me
at the club.

ASAP.

Ooh-wee, that was brutal.

TED:
There she is.

On her feet.

Can you please
remind your girlfriend

that it's PT, and we're not
training for the Olympics?

-Hmm.
-Hey, my patients end up in better shape

than they were
before the surgery.

One day, I'm sure my core
will thank you, but not today.

Well, you're
one session closer

to me having you back full-time.

Uh, baby steps.

But I am excited
to get back to interviewing

for the clinic, though.

Thanks for letting me meet
my next candidate

-in your office here.
-Of course.

Good luck.

Yeah, and don't forget
to do your exercises

before our next session.

-Yes, ma'am.
-Uh-huh.

MAN [on P.A.]:
Nurse Hugo to ICU.

Well, she was just
starting to like me.

I still love you.

Oh, you better.

Now, I would love to get some
coffee for the woman I love.

Are you in?

Isn't that funny how,
ever since we broke the seal,

we can't stop saying it?

How many "loves" is that now?

Never enough.

? ?

Kat hasn't been this mad at me
in forever.

But it's not like you mentioned
her in your live stream.

That's what she wanted, right?

To not be named the donor?

She thinks
I was too nice to Eva.

I thought they were getting
along better after the surgery.

Kat's been spinning
since the surgery.

She rejected Tomas' proposal
in front of the whole fam

and then bought a condo
as casually

as she buys
a pair of red bottoms.

What do you think
is up with her?

Maybe she needed an excuse
to renew their beef?

Hating Eva has been her baseline
since they met.

Now she's back at it
in full force.

I don't know what's worse,

my supposed bestie cuz
gassing Eva

or her acting
all innocent after?

I caught a little
of the live.

I didn't know
they were tight like that.

Chelsea gets carried away
when she's in do-gooder mode,

but that doesn't mean
she had to make Eva

sound like she was Oprah.

Especially when
you're the real hero.

Why didn't you show up
and get your flowers?

I was not about to debut Eva
as my long-lost,

unwanted half sister
to the ChelseaFam.

Wait. People don't know?

Well, you know, Fairmont Crest

generally takes care
of their own.

I mean, she was interviewed
at Martin's fundraiser,

but they obviously didn't
get into the dirty details.

Well, at least she didn't
spill all and embarrass you.

I am a mogul on the rise,

not a subplot in some
secret baby mama drama.

You're also major inspo for me.

You are very sweet.

Not really, but I am honest.

Whenever I hit a bump, I ask
myself, "What would Kat do?"

And it usually works for you?

Yeah. Mom and I
are making good progress.

Aw. See?

You just needed some time to...
to move past your grief.

Yeah, that wasn't
the only thing between us.

Oh?

You gave me the perfect way
to handle

Mom's thug boyfriend
Joey Armstrong,

and it's working like a charm.

[knocking on door]

Come in.

Hi. I'm looking for Eva Thomas.

-That's me. You must be Noah.
-Yeah.

Thanks for coming in.
Look, I'll get straight to it.

At Phoenix Street, we serve
a very vulnerable community,

so we need a clinic manager
with the necessary expertise

but also someone with heart.

How are your administrative
and tech skills?

Well, I do have
a business degree, so...

Mama, what are you doing?

Don't tell me
that you got started without me.

Who's this?

Hi, I'm Noah. And you are?

The owner of the clinic,

and the one who decides
who should run it.

Mama, I got this.

I'm Leslie Thomas.

My daughter somehow
has forgotten

that I'll be the one
signing the checks,

if you're hired.

Noah, I see that you have
a business degree,

but I'm not seeing any medical
or administrative experience

-on your r�sum�.
-You got me there.

I haven't exactly
had the opportunity

to put my degree to work.

I'm a musician.

Okay, uh, then why would you
apply for a job in health care?

I want to support myself,
mainly.

My dad was in medicine,

and he thought I might be
a good fit for it, too.

Uh, and what do you think?

-Uh...
-LESLIE: Your daddy.

So, what does he do
in the medical field?

He's here in the DMV now,
but he's a traveling doctor.

His name's Kial Rollins.

From Nicole Dupree's
stable of men?

Okay, what a small world.

-Stable of men?
-EVA: Mama has quite

an imagination.

Have you met Nicole yet?

Yeah. She seems really great.

Are you two friends?

Well, we've shared things...

not the closest of friends have.

Which has nothing
to do with this job.

I disagree.

I can't think of anything
more relevant.

-Deanna, what did you do?
-I played nice.

I invited Mom and Joey
to dinner.

Okay, walk me through this,

because I remember telling you
to protect your peace.

Now you're hanging out
over martinis and a meal?

I may have another voice
in my head guiding me, too.

Someone who I hope also knows

that Joey is not
to be messed with.

Someone you would never expect.

And now I must know
who this life guru is.

Mr. Hawthorne.

Every time a student
calls me that,

I still look around for my dad.

You know, you could still become
a model like Aunt Dani wanted.

It would take you far, far away

from your unnecessary
entanglements here.

No, we need Mr. Hawthorne
at Banneker.

He is the best advisor ever.

Thank you, Deanna.

How's that internship going?

You said that working for my mom
would be a great opportunity

for us to repair
our relationship

and get back on track.

You were so right.

Well, sounds like you've
been putting in that work.

Keep it up.

You got it.

Kat. You, uh,
you still good, recovery-wise?

Peachy.

That's good to hear.

Now I'm, uh, I'm-a go see
about my takeout order.

So, Izaiah
is your other advisor,

in school and in life?

You got it.
He's awesome.

You know, Kat just went through
something life-affirming.

She should not be holding on
to all this negativity.

And I'm caught
in the wake of it.

This is not good for Kat
or me or ChelseaKat.

I just want all this lingering
tension to be gone already.

I wish she would see
that her resentment

is weighing her down,

and affecting the people
around her.

You have a business to consider.

Right. I thought the live stream

would be a positive
for me and Kat.

I was wrong.

I thought that the Hero Handbag
was an all-around win, but...

now I'm wondering
if that was a mistake, too.

Mm-mmm. Don't you dare
take back that good thing

because of pressure
from someone else.

You do not walk on eggshells
to appease other people,

and you sure as hell
don't second-guess yourself

because of other people's
issues.

Ooh.

I appreciate the passion
and the backup, sis,

but you're coming in
a little hot.

Are you sure this is still
about me and Kat?

Someone is very interested
in champagne they didn't drink.

I'm just trying
to figure out who sent that.

Well, gifts come with
the territory for top models.

Mostly from prospective clients
trying to get in on the action.

Mm, but why not
just sign the card?

It's not sitting right with me.

Someone literally
left me a Maserati once.

As in, the one in your garage?

Oh, no, baby,
that one was handpicked by moi.

My point is
it's surprises like this

that make life more interesting.

Don't you agree?

Yeah.

Hey, you have nothing to worry

your handsome head about.

Mwah. Now I'm off to meet Sissy.

-All right. Bye.
-Okay.

Excuse us, Noah,
but your dad's personal life

is not a part of this interview.

I beg to differ.

Your daddy,
being in medicine and all,

means that medicine
has been your whole life, right?

And he's given you an instant
connection to the Dupree family.

Hmm?

Well, their inner circle
means everything in this town.

EVA:
However, it means

absolutely nothing
to our free clinic.

Guess I just
have to spell it out.

Okay. Fundraising...

is a big part of this gig.

Now, the Duprees do love
to philanthropize,

but there are deeper pockets
in this town.

So, Noah, who do you know?

Do you have a girlfriend?

-A boyfriend?
-Mama, stop.

I don't even think
it's legal to go there.

What? I did not ask
the boy

to stand up, strip down
and show me his goods.

It's okay, I'm not offended.

I don't have a girlfriend.
I'm actually new in town.

Oh, well,
with that face card, honey,

the women will be lining up.

Well, my longest relationship
has been with my guitar.

But if it's a question
of character,

I think I'm a pretty good guy.

I do want to ask you about
that relationship after all.

If music is your life,
then it sounds like

the clinic
is a fallback position.

How will you balance
your rock star dreams

with this day job?

Sorry, I have to take this call.

When your mom is your boss,
work just never ends.

Mm-hmm.

Daddy, I almost blew it.

I just need a moment
to get myself together,

and looking at you helps.

No, I won't let it happen again.

Deanna.

Are you okay?

Hey, Kat.

-Hey.
-Hmm.

I saw Chelsea's live.

Et tu, Andre?

Let me guess. You want to know

why I didn't make it
a half sister act?

Cute wordplay, but nah.

I take pictures for a living,

which means I like to be
behind the camera, so I get it.

You're the first one who does.

Yeah. Broadcasting your moves
never felt right to me.

You never know who's watching.

Chelsea's habits gave that
crazy stalker Allison access.

She's a lot more careful now,

but still, that's
a different level of exposure.

Mm-hmm.

I guess I just
have to get over myself.

Tia Allen wants to do
this huge profile piece on Dani,

and that means she's gonna
interview the whole family,

including me.

-Wow.
-Yeah.

Aunt Dani got Tia Allen?

Right? So, I can't
say no to that.

Yeah, you can.

I don't care who it is.

If you don't feel comfortable
doing it, don't.

Okay, I'm here.
What's with the SOS?

It's Ted.

Are the fantasies back?

We did something
even more risqu�.

We had a no-holds-barred talk
about our significant others.

Oof! Pretty dangerous water
to tread with an ex.

Did his jealousy switch on?

He was in complete control,

and even made
some really valid points.

Had me up all night
wondering if he was right.

What did he say?

Ted basically thinks that I have
kicked Carlton to the curb.

Oh, that?

Well, anyone can see
that you're spending more time

with your ortho boo
than your plastic one.

Why didn't
you say anything to me?

Say what, exactly?

How you appear to feel?

Kial has been
my soft place to land.

Meanwhile, Carlton
is such an amazing man, but...

-You're in a holding pattern.
-But I still don't want

my relationship status
to change.

I need it to stay casual.

Is it possible
that you're a little bit afraid

to become a one-man woman again?

It feels nice to have
these feelings swirling.

I just, I don't want
exclusivity or pressure

changing our arrangement.

I don't see what the problem is.

If you are getting
your needs met,

stay the Kial course
and forget what Ted said.

It's not that easy.

-What's hard?
-Guilt!

I feel like the worst person
in the world

for leading Carlton on.

I don't know what
Nicole's gonna do with it,

but I told her what I thought.

I didn't mean
to cause any drama.

I should have known telling Kial

was like blurting it
to Nicole myself.

Yeah, well, I'm-I'm glad.

I mean, I wanted Nicole
to know where my heart is,

and frankly, I think it's
shifted us into a better place.

Really?

It's never been more clear
that we've both moved on,

and we got to talk as friends.

Oh.

Well then, I will make sure
you and I are the subject

of hospital gossip more often.

-Mm.
-After all these years of dishing it,

I guess it's only fair
that I get it in return.

Hmm.

Well, it's a good thing
I know how to get

the rumor mill spinning up.

Sorry, I didn't mean
to come in so harsh.

It was just...

residual energy
from dropping the BRCA bomb.

I'm sorry
for how I handled that.

It's your news,
and I made it all about me.

You were carrying that
all alone all that time.

But now you have us,
you have me.

I might need to cash in on that
sooner than later.

What's up?

Mom.

She found out about my plans

about potentially getting
a double mastectomy.

What did she say?

She is so opposed to it.

She sent Gran
to do all the talking.

-She matriarched you?
-Well, she tried,

but Gran understands
that I don't want to go through

what she just went through.

So, she's gonna try to talk
to mom to get her on board.

Sounds like Gran.

And Andre says
she's really trying.

It's just gonna be awkward
running into her again.

You've been ducking her calls?

More like she's been ducking me.

And it's strange,
because she's usually

the grizzly-level
mama bear, but...

that must mean she's really
having a hard time with this.

Well, do you want me
to try to bridge the gap?

At this point, I know every
trick there is to managing Mom.

Unless you have a magic wand
to make it all go away,

I think we're just gonna
have to get through it.

Okay.

If any man is getting
the presence

and pleasure of your company,
they should be thanking you,

if you get my drift.

I think Carlton only agreed
to be nonexclusive

because he thought one day,
it would help him win my heart.

I was so raw after Ted,

and Carlton was familiar
and so safe.

He got me over the hump.

And what does he get in return?

You didn't use him, Nicole.

Neither of you could have known
that this would happen.

-The heart wants
what the heart wants? -Yes.

That is a classic excuse for
doing whatever the hell we want.

As much as we would like to,

we cannot control
who we're drawn to. We can't.

You saw how Andre and I

went from being sneaky links
to wedded bliss.

What are you saying?

You take care of your own needs.

-That seems...
-Necessary.

That way, when you're ready,
you won't be half stepping.

And let me remind you
in the meantime

that you are dealing
with two grown-ass men

who are completely capable
of opting out

if they are no longer able
to handle

-being your part-time lovers.
-But...

No buts.

If what you need is more time,
then you take it.

You don't have to apologize
to anyone or change a thing.

I know you, and my cousin Andre

is not one to be pressured
into doing things.

Okay, let's just back up before
this becomes a whole thing.

All I'm saying is...

I don't want my stuff
to get in the way,

when Dani is finally
basking again.

You can't make or break
Aunt Dani's rise.

She's friggin' Dani Dupree.

If you want to be
the behind-the-scenes hubby,

she'll understand.

You wouldn't be the first.

And who are you thinking of?

Dolly Parton's husband
was the love of her life,

and we don't know
a damn thing about him

except how deeply she loved him.

Him staying out the spotlight
had no bearing on her career.

Well, unfortunately,
Elvis left that building

when our Vegas
wedding photo blew up.

Everybody knows
who I'm married to.

[phone vibrates, chimes]

What's going on?
You seem upset.

Nothing, just hung up
with a friend

and started thinking
about my dad.

I miss him so much.

Of course you do.

Look, Deanna,
I know you're killing it

with your internship
and at school, but, uh,

that loss you're also carrying
can creep in any time.

So, if you ever need an ear,
I'm a text away.

I appreciate that,
Mr. Hawthorne,

but I'm back home now
with my friends and my family.

I'm good.

If anything changes...

I know.

Good.

I understand you have concerns.

I won't lie, music is my heart.

But my gigs
are always after hours,

although I could see how

me coming into work tired
the next day

isn't the best look, either.

Right.

But hey,
I appreciate your honesty.

Unfortunately, we need
someone who's committed.

Again, very vulnerable
community.

And that's not me.

But I do love what
the clinic stands for.

-Thank you both for your time.
-Yeah.

Uh, this isn't over.

The last man who had
this position, well,

he didn't have
experience, either,

but he wasn't so bad, was he?

Having
an unconventional background

could actually be
a good fit for you.

How's that?

Well, you pull out
your guitar on stressful days

and serenade the clinic,
and make everyone feel better

about whatever
their struggles are for the day.

I hadn't thought about it
that way.

Plus, being a musician-

you know, it's not a good way
to make a living.

My mother was one, so I know.

Really? What'd your mother play?

Oh, her instrument
was her voice.

Unfortunately,
I never met her, but...

she was cast out
of the music industry

and forced
to struggle unnecessarily.

Mama, can we chat outside?

No, baby girl,

because my mind is made up.

Noah, you're hired.

-Really?
-Yes.

You don't seem sold.

Uh, well, we still have
a few more candidates

that we're considering.

Uh, ones that may be better
for the job.

No, we don't.

We've been struggling
to get applicants.

Mama, perhaps we can
go out here and talk.

No, perhaps we can't,

because, come on, baby girl.

I feel good about this.

And you seem like
a smart man, Noah.

Are you a smart man?

-Think so.
-Yeah.

Oh, well, there it is.

And he looks like
a quick study, too, so...

What do you say, boo?

Welcome to Phoenix Street
Free Clinic.

EVA:
Yes.

-Thank you.
-Mm-hmm.

-All right. Thank you so much.
-Yeah, absolutely.

Welcome.

[knocking on door]

Well, there she is.

How was therapy?

Shanice makes it feel
like Pilates on steroids.

Mm. Well, every move is a step
towards you being better.

You're not the one
having your body contorted

into weird positions.

Okay, why am I feeling a little
jealous of Shanice right now?

I did an interview
while I was there, too.

Hired a new manager
for Phoenix Street.

Oh, nice. You must be relieved.

Not really.
Mama basically demanded

that I hire this guy Noah.

Why?

-What's in it for her?
-Exactly.

And he's not even qualified.

But then again,
Derek wasn't, either.

But you said Derek had related
experience, though, right?

Yeah.

I guess there's a lot
of skills that translate,

but he just doesn't seem
excited about the job.

As excited as Derek, you mean.

Baby, no one's gonna be able
to fill those shoes,

so you got to stop
looking for it.

Yeah, you're right.

I'll just hope
this wannabe rock star

is an admin rock star, too.

Here to ask for more money?

No.
Looking for you.

You never sent me
a cash request.

I didn't want to take
what was probably your last.

-Ouch.
-Besides,

I don't even know your name.

I'm Noah.

And your ark brought
you all the way from Cali?

Sorry.

You probably
get that all the time.

No, you're the first.

And you are?

Deanna.

Sorry, no fun jokes
to be made there.

It's cool.
I could work it into a song.

No one's ever written
a song about me.

Well, allow me to be the first,
and allow me to pay you back.

You only owe me 20.

Consider it interest.

? Baby it's you?

? Baby, it's you.?

Well, we can finally
take that trip

we were talking about
and celebrate our milestone.

Oh, I recall us having
two very different ideas

of a romantic getaway.

I heard you loud and clear.
No camping.

It's only thousand-count sheets

and five stars only
for my woman.

Oh, that's music to my ears.

Are you in a New York
state of mind?

I love New York.

Oh, we can start at Sylvia's
in Harlem and work our way down,

take in a Broadway show,

climb Lady Liberty
and take in the view.

Mm.

See, you were this close.

I live on my feet.

A vacation should be relaxing.

Hmm. Okay.

Uh, how about
we take in the statue

from the comfort
of a private boat?

Ooh. Now you're speaking
my language.

I cannot believe I let Ted
get in my head like that.

I hope I didn't pull you away
from anything important.

I was spending quality time
with my honey,

but Andre and I have
endless supply of that.

I will never get tired
of seeing you this happy.

-And dare I say domestic?
-I object.

The days of me

simply being a homemaker
are behind me.

No, now I am
enjoying my marriage

while also building
my personal brand.

And what does that look like?

Reintroducing the supermodel
to this generation and the next.

I have had it up to here

with these
influencers-turned-models

who can't even walk.

I would say I'm looking forward
to the Dani renaissance,

but I think we are already here.

Tia Allen wants to do
an in-depth interview on me.

It feels like old times.

Better, because now
you're in control,

and you're not making
any sacrifices

for some ungrateful man
cheating on you.

I don't want to dwell
on the past, Nicole.

And we won't.

I am very proud of you, Sissy.

And I am proud of you.

You have found your power,

and you're refusing
to put it back down.

Here's to the Dupree girls.

Really, Naomi?

You cousin-bombed me?

Kat, I had no part in this.

Okay. The only way the two
of you are going to make up

is if you actually
talk to each other.

Well, apparently I've already
said too much on my live stream.

Nope.
I will not be painted

as the irrational villain
yet again.

No one is painting you
as the villain.

But come on, Kat,

how can you slam me
for only doing what you asked?

You're not seeing
the big picture.

I was backed into a corner.

My only options
were to let Eva die

and forever be known
as some kind of murderer,

or to give up a piece of my body
to someone I hate.

You're a hero for what you did.

And all Eva had to do

was wake up
with a shiny new liver.

She never knew
she was hours away from dying,

never had the stress
of facing surgery.

I carried that.

All Eva did was lie there,

but yet you kept praising her
for being so brave when...

when she didn't do anything.

I had no idea
that's how you were feeling.

Thanks.

Eva was lying there

because that's all she could do.

And telling her story
to the entire Internet

took courage.

I-If you had just joined us,

I would have sung
your praises, too.

Told the whole world how heroic
and unselfish you are,

but you wouldn't even let me
say your damn name.

Because I want
all of this behind me.

Kat, I'm sorry
you have organ donor's remorse,

but this is not on me.

Okay, I understand
how you're feeling, too.

Uh-uh.

You set up this meetup,
so you have to choose a side.

-The best is yet to come, Sissy.
-You rang?

Keep it moving.
We were having a nice time.

Aw, I want to drop
some knowledge on Nicole.

Positive I don't need it.

Oh, you might not, but
your vanilla latte Kial will.

I just hired his son
to manage my free clinic.

Good for Noah.

He is every bit as fine
as his daddy.

You know,
he was a bit confused, though,

when I told him about
your flighty dating style.

Yeah. So, does that mean

that you are going back
to being Miss Prim and Proper

with just one man?

Or are you still Naughty Nikki,

still in the house?

Keep talking
to my sister like that.

I dare you.

Yo.
I'm sorry, Unc.

I should have texted.

No, all good. I don't mind
a surprise drive-by.

Well, that makes one of us.

Yeah?
What's going on?

I could use your take
on something.

Hey.
Lay it on me.

Okay, I checked the calendar,
and there are three weeks

I can take off. We just need
to coordinate our sch...

Oh. I'm so sorry.

Um, excuse me.

I hope I'm not interrupting
anything heavy.

Uh, not exactly sure.

Andre was about to fill me in.

-Where'd you get the money?
-My dad.

But I'm done freeloading.
I just got a job.

New gig?

Uh, no, it's a day job.

My dad was pushing me
kind of hard,

so I did the interview
and I got it.

Congrats.

I know, I should be
more grateful, it's just...

I mainly got my business degree
to buy time,

and I thought
I would have made it by now.

But honestly, when they told me
I was hired,

a part of me was relieved.

I don't love relying on my dad

or having pretty ladies
cover my lunch.

I feel you.
I don't exactly dream

of being like one of those
Selling Sunsetwomen,

but working for my mom's real
estate company has been fun.

Maybe your new gig will be, too.

I hope so.

The idea of being confined
to an office

40 hours a week
always sounded soul-crushing.

What's the job?

Managing a free clinic.

The Phoenix Street Free Clinic?

Yeah.
You know it?

Yeah, it's dedicated to my dad.

Did Shanice wear you out
too much

or do you have
some energy left for me?

What did you have in mind?

I want to take you out
to where it all began.

Uptown?

I remember rolling up

and seeing you with

a book thinking,
"Damn, he's fine and smart."

The second we locked eyes,

I knew you were special.

Tell me more.

For real, I, uh, I was still
dealing with whatever

with Yolanda, but something
to me just clicked on.

I didn't know stuff like that
happened outside of rom-coms.

Are you saying
I'm your romantic lead?

Mm-hmm. And tonight
will be a movie.

You know,
there's always a preview

to get you
in the right frame of mind.

Mm.

[grunts softly]

What's wrong?

-Doug McBride's your dad?
-You know him?

No, I just read the plaque
at the clinic when I went by.

He must have been a great man.

He was the best father
in the whole world.

He didn't deserve
to die like that.

Feel the same way
about my mom.

Can I ask what happened?

Car accident.

-You?
-Heart attack.

Hey, I'm sorry, I didn't mean
to stir anything up. I...

It's been a while since my mom,
so I guess it's easier

for me to talk about it.

Yeah, probably.

Now that you're rolling
in the big bucks,

what are you gonna do with it?

Twenty-five whole dollars.

The options are endless.

Right.

Do you have
plans tonight, Deanna?

I don't know.
What are you thinking?

That I want to get
to know you better.

But I'm new here, so I'm
definitely open to suggestions.

Did I hurt you?

No, I'm just out of practice.

Besides, I need to put together
tonight's look.

My return needs
to have the girls gagged.

Well, you could put on
a garbage bag

and still be beautiful.

But seriously,
there's no pressure

to do anything strenuous
if you're not feeling it.

No, I'm-I'm feeling it.
Don't worry.

Prepare to be dazzled.

I already am.

There is no right or wrong here.

I kind of agree with Kat.

You made us lay out
our grievances.

-Now tell her why I'm right.
-KAT: Mm-hmm.

Not cool.

It worked when you were little,
worked now.

What did I miss?

You two needed a common enemy.

Voil�. Now you can take
your frustration out on me.

At least you're not mad
at each other anymore.

So sneaky.

I guess if we can agree

that Naomi
is highly manipulative

when she wants to be...

...then we're not too far
out of sync.

It's not like we won't
eventually make up anyway.

May as well just
cut to the chase.

Damn, I'm good.

-Oh, my gosh.
-Ugh. Ugh.

I am.

Uh, I'll let you two talk.

Oh, no, you can stay. Really.

I was just about to tell
Uncle Ted how Dani

booked an interview
with Tia Allen.

Oh.
She's a big deal.

-Mm-hmm.
-Yeah.

And Dani's headed back out
into the fame stratosphere,

so I'm trying to adjust
to the altitude.

-Yeah.
-You've been around high-profile people your whole career.

I can't think of anyone
better prepared for this.

I have, haven't I?

I guess I'm making
something out of nothing.

You got this, neph.

Yeah. You know what is
a big deal, though?

This-this trip
you guys are finally taking.

So, what made you guys
finally pull the trigger?

Should I tell him?

Well, we don't want him
to be the last to know.

Last to know what?

That I realized the obvious:

I am head over heels in love
with this woman,

and thankfully,
she loves me back.

Oh, man.

I'm happy for you.
Really.

You know, Dani and I had love
sneak up on us, too.

I wish you both what we found.

That deep, long love.

No pressure, though.

Well, after a bumpy start,

we're both ready for smooth
sailing from here on out.

You want some of this,
Itty Bitty?

It's been a while since I made
a scene in this country club.

I'm long overdue to check a ho.

Uh, Dani, stop.

I got this.

You know what, why do we even
have to fight at all?

I mean, your daughter gave mine
a chunk of her liver,

so why can't we mothers just
come to some common ground?

You are so transparent, Leslie.

You don't want my friendship.

Like you'd ever get it.

You are here
digging into my business

because you are
obsessed with me.

And deep down,
you are clinging on to hope

that Ted will take you back.

But please, allow me to give you
some advice, sweetheart.

Give up, once and for all.

Why? That nurse ain't nothing
but a placeholder.

Ted told me himself.

He is all in with Shanice.

They're in love.
