Original subtitles

OK. OK.

Oh. Whoa, whoa.

Hey. We need to talk.

I'm sorry. I can't.

KJ.

Seriously?

For days, I've been trying to get you to talk to me,

and you choose now, the day of the showcase?

OK. My timing isn't the best.

Look, I get it. OK, I screwed up,

and... and I'm the bad guy, but I can't.

I cannot do this right now.

-That's not what I was... -I gotta go.

Has Khalil signed in yet?

Hasn't the showcase already started?

What you mean, my son isn't here yet?

Hey, look, K., I know this ain't what you wanted to do,

but this gonna be good for you.

I thought we was done lying to each other.

It was the only way I could get you to talk to her.

I ain't got nothing to say.

Well, maybe she got something to say to you.

It wasn't that long ago

where I was in that same exact place.

Now look. We good!

We working on it.

I am just saying,

you gave me a chance.

Give her one.

Why are you so willing to give her another one?

She walked out on both of us.

I'm not thinking about me right now.

This is about you.

I wasn't sure you'd come.

I keep my promises.

OK! All right.

I'm so happy that we are here.

Can you believe our boy got me liking

this bougie-ass food they got here?

That's crazy.

All type of smoothies.

I can't wait to taste it.

I only got time for a drink.

I'm hearing great things about your showcase

this weekend.

You must be excited.

There it is.

The reason you're back.

The only reason I'm here is because I want to tell you

that I'm sorry.

-Yeah? -Yeah.

What are you sorry for?

You sorry for having me?

You sorry for walking out on me and Pop?

Yo, K., come on, man.

Ah. Maybe you sorry for all the nights

I spent wondering if I did something to make you leave.

Ohh. I forgot.

You're probably sorry for standing me up the last time

I tried to come see you.

Gotta go.

Yo, K.

No. Let him... let him go.

Are these really

the nicest dishes you own?

You sound like Jordan.

We're having a dinner party tonight,

and I invited Preach and Amina.

But don't you worry.

Breonna and I are gonna take care of everything.

Not worried, just confused.

Well, with you about to leave for tour

and me about to be really busy with my internship,

I just thought it'd be dope if we all got together tonight

to have dinner here at the Baker house, of course.

Does this have anything to do

with our conversation earlier today?

You mean the one

where a certain friend of mine questioned my happiness?

I think she was just looking out for you.

You know, she sounds like a really good friend.

Sometimes. But...

it's not... it's not just about that.

Amina seems to think that I went all corporate

and somehow lost myself or lost my way,

but I just think that people don't understand

what I got going with Breonna

or what I'm trying to build with her,

so I was hoping by all of us hanging out tonight

that they would.

Got it.

Almost like a power couple coming-out party.

Almost.

What do you say?

I say it is time we show Breonna

we can have just as classy a time as her Ojai friends.

Let's go.

You want to invite anyone else?

Uh, no. I say keep it small.

Less people, less drama.

Ooh, these are nice.

Yeah.

Hey. Got a minute?

You here to check out your new office?

You know, I was actually hoping

for one with a window.

But, uh, I was hoping we could talk.

You make a decision about the job?

Not yet.

Then we got nothing to talk about.

Our showcase is in 3 days.

OK. Cassius, I didn't ask for your job.

And as soon as I got the offer,

I came and told you about it.

I know. But that doesn't mean I'm not allowed

to feel some type of way about all this.

That's fair. OK.

But our kids, they really need this showcase

to go well.

OK? They shouldn't suffer because of us.

No. no. They shouldn't.

Well, look, now isn't a good time.

I got a meeting soon, so...

OK. Um, what if you came over tonight?

You could bring KJ. We could have a drink,

get some work done,

or you could just yell at me some more.

Tempting offer.

I will try to stop by if I can.

All right.

Ah, ha.

Nice. Where you off to?

I think you mean where we're off to.

I'm not sure I meant that.

Coop invited us over to the Bakers for dinner.

She wants us to get to know Breonna or something.

I already know Breonna kind of.

And I really need to study, so, yeah.

Well, time for a study break.

I barely seen you since you been back.

Besides, Khalil will be there.

And I know everyone wants to hear

everything about Dinsberg.

Definitely want to do all of that,

but like I said, finals are soon, and I...

And like I said, Auntie Coop wants us there,

so we're going.

Now, go get changed.

Reliving the old glory days, huh, Baker?

So where do I stand, Mr. Mosely?

London didn't think the Eagles

would win a single game, much less make the playoffs.

Everyone had written them off.

Not everyone.

No, not everyone.

And, you know, thanks to you,

Beverly has a winning team again.

And how does London thank you, huh?

By offering your job to some unqualified rich kid.

We'll just see about that.

Well, London seems pretty set in his decision.

London still has boosters to answer to.

And lucky for you, I'm finally one of those boosters again,

I'd argue the most important one.

Well, I haven't felt too lucky lately,

so I will take all the help I can get.

Just leave everything to me.

I've been waiting for this for a long time.

We haven't talked about what happened

at Dinsberg.

Everything OK?

I was about to ask you the same thing.

I just talked to my mom earlier, but...

ain't nothing for you to worry about.

What if I want to anyway?

I appreciate it, but it's nothing.

Just more of the same.

What you need to talk about?

Something's for sure going on with KJ and Amina.

I have proof.

What kind of proof?

I saw them in the Beverly hallway,

and they were...

Hooking up?

Talking.

That's not exactly proof, Tori.

No. It's the way they were talking.

They were very close.

How close?

That don't mean nothing.

You know KJ's kind of a close talker.

It wasn't just that.

I caught him repeating this Latin phrase

that's real specific to Dinsberg.

And he's kind of a nerd, too.

I wouldn't worry about it.

Just this morning, you were the one

who ratted out KJ and Amina for keeping secrets.

And now you're all "Don't worry about it"?

Keeping secrets, yeah,

but I didn't say nothing about cheating.

Look, Amina and I ain't really been great lately,

but she's not that type of girl. Trust.

Principal London, come on.

Jordan, Cliff Mosely is

an important member of the Beverly High community.

The board wants to hear him out.

Look, Principal London,

don't let this happen, OK, not when my dad

hasn't left the hospital since last night.

You can't expect him to be here

with everything going on.

That's exactly the point, Jordan.

Your father's right.

With all that your family's going through, it's best

that he and you, for that matter,

put your energy where it's most needed.

That's at the hospital and at home.

This is ridiculous. Don't tell me you're buying this bull crap.

The Beverly Eagles need

a coach able to focus on the field.

Right now your father just isn't that man.

Principal London.

Jordan?

Yo, come on.

Can we pick up the pace a little bit?

Breonna's gonna be here any minute with the food.

Yes. Uh, are you sure you just

don't want me to whip out the Blacktop

and grill up some smashers?

Jordan,

this isn't burger night, OK?

I told you this is an elegant affair.

Right you were, my dear. Right you were.

Coop, please forgive my rudeness.

All right.

You might move a little faster if you don't talk.

Want to give that a try?

Listen, why are you so nervous?

It's just dinner.

I'm not nervous.

I just want tonight to go well.

Are these spots? What? Why am I seeing spots?

OK, here's a trick.

Pour some wine in the glass, you won't see the spots, OK?

And maybe have some and relax, OK?

Tonight's gonna be great. Everybody likes Breonna.

Mm-hmm, even though she doesn't laugh

at any of my jokes.

I mean, everybody loves Breonna.

I'm not worried about that.

Wait. Does Breonna not like us?

Are we not mature enough for her?

So that's why she doesn't think I'm funny.

You know, those elite types, they just...

they never get my simple folk humour.

You know what, I don't like either one of you right now.

And for the record, Breonna didn't grow up

swimming in some pool in Beverly Hills

like some "simple folk" I know.

She's not too different from me, all right,

so y'all can kill all the fancy talk.

And now she's here.

OK. OK. And what is this?

A little smoked duck with some cherry glaze.

Sorry, girl.

The only thing Coop told me about this dinner

was that it was tonight and that we had to hurry up.

So I hope this will do.

I mean, Charcoal & Ash? Nice!

I did not know that they did takeout.

You know, they do

when your firm handled their payroll case.

All right, chill.

You acting like you never seen food before.

Hold on, now. The boxes have vents.

That is a clutch move. Keeps the potatoes crispy.

Ha!

Very fancy.

What's going on?

Coop and Breonna are treating us to dinner.

Yeah, Preach and Amina are on their way.

Uh, you cool if I skip? I'm not too hungry.

I'm sorry. Do you smell the truffle barbecue rub

on those wings?

Is everything OK?

Yeah. I'm fine. Uh, just a rough day.

Ah. Well, you're about to have a great weekend.

I just got word that

the assistant coach at Stanford

will be at the showcase.

-For real? -Mm-hmm.

That's great, but, Coach, you know my test scores...

I know. I know.

And I can't promise you anything.

But when you impress the hell out of him,

like I know you will,

maybe he'll tell the coach you're someone

worth reevaluating with the admissions office.

Thanks, Coach.

I needed some good news today.

Just keep up the good work

and there'll be more to come, all right?

Just like these wings. Check that out.

Bet you're hungry now. We got wings!

Coming in hot.

-Oh, wow. -Oh, great.

Careful Jordan doesn't try to steal those, too.

We've been over this.

Jordan did not steal my job.

It was offered to him.

Well, he could've said no.

Anyway, how'd the meeting go with that booster?

I think the only person that hates the Bakers

more than Cliff Mosely is my dad.

Why? What did he say?

It was more of a gut feeling.

Well, well, did he say he could help out?

I mean, he did,

but I don't think Cliff's the type of person

we want helping us.

Besides, Jordan hasn't made a decision.

We don't even know which way he's leaning.

Is there any way that we can find out?

Amina, hi!

-Hey, champ. -Hey.

Wow. Amina, I haven't seen you

since your first day back.

Well, here I am.

OK. Um, how...

or how is it? Are you... are you loving it out there?

I mean, there's not a lot to tell. So...

Uh, what ever happened to the paper you was writing?

Well, some idiots at the school paper

don't know what good writing is.

I doubt they even read it.

They definitely read it, all right.

Has Coop told you that I'm a Boardley Bear?

Boardley's their rival, by the way.

I had the best time at school.

I bet you can't wait to get back.

I'd leave right now if I could.

Um, are... are you in town for long or...?

Just a few more days.

I still have that dead week to study before finals.

Really? Wow! A dead week.

I had friends at Dinsberg. It was intense.

They never had a dead week.

Friends? I thought you said you were rivals.

In sports, yeah, but not in real life.

They were lucky if they had two days to study.

Guess it's a new thing.

You know how progressive Dinsberg says they are.

Right.

-If you will excuse me. -Mm-hmm.

Sorry.

Dog, you notice anything off about Amina

since she been back?

I've barely seen her all week.

That's the point.

I mean, don't it seem like she been trying to avoid us?

Nah, she just busy. Nothing wrong with working hard.

I like to think she learned that from me.

Preach, she was so excited about Dinsberg,

and now every time we bring it up,

she get upset.

Red flag?

Maybe something happened at school?

Whatever it is, I think it's

something she ain't telling us.

OK.

What kind of food is this?

Uh, barbecue fusion.

-What's that? -Rich people food.

-Excuse me? -Well, it looks amazing.

-I can't wait. -Yes.

Ooh.

Where are we supposed to sit?

Oh, we figured it'd get a little crowded,

so we set up on the side patio for you and Khalil.

Yeah, I... I think we've outgrown the kids' table.

We'll sit here.

See? Plenty of room.

Mm. So cozy.

Well, I would like to make a little toast to Coop.

I hope you guys are just as proud of her as I am.

Taught her everything she knows.

Well, as long as we're talking about proud...

Dad, don't.

You better get used to me being proud of you.

You're gonna do some great things.

And Dinsberg is just the start.

Cheers.

You know, your school has a really good pre-law club,

if you ever wanted to follow in Coop's footsteps.

Yeah. No offence, but I want to help our people,

not corporations.

Amina, if you want to sit with the adults,

you need to act like one.

No, babe, that's fair.

Representing corporations is a big part of what my firm does.

Same goes for the firm Coop's interning with.

That's true. But once she graduates

and we're able to open our own firm,

eventually we will be able to focus

on giving back to the community more.

Eventually. Right. My bad.

I just assumed people stayed

in their high-paying jobs until they were

rich enough to retire on a beach

and don't care anymore.

Yeah. Tell that to Mrs. Baker.

To be fair,

I'm pretty sure she is on a beach right now.

You know what? I have an idea.

Why don't we talk about something else?

That's a great idea, babe,

probably one of your best.

Amina, I have barely seen you.

Tell me all about Dinsberg.

You know, this table is a little crowded.

Come on, Khalil.

I'm guessing you haven't told your pops about Dinsberg.

What gave it away?

His speech about how proud of me he is?

He'll still be proud of you.

Maybe not right away,

but you need to tell him, Amina.

I know. I'm just waiting for the right time.

And right now in front of all of his friends is

certainly not that time.

I get that, but you gotta do it soon.

He's gonna find out, Amina.

Khalil, why do you even care?

I thought we weren't friends anymore, right?

So what did London say

when you turned down his job offer?

Mm. Not so loud.

Wait. Is this the job offer Layla told me about?

Yes. London offered me the head coach job at Beverly,

but Khalil does not know,

so please just keep it down, all right?

I wish I didn't know.

I mean, this is gonna ruin things with Cassius.

And you're abandoning your wife on tour?

Coop, I can speak for myself.

Are you seriously considering this?

I thought you didn't want drama tonight.

Can we not talk about the offer or Cassius?

♪ All for you, all for you ♪

♪ You, you, you, and you, too... ♪

No. Jordan didn't tell me

he invited you over to work on the showcase.

I didn't think you would show up,

especially after I saw who you were meeting with.

You guys, uh, having a party?

Yeah, it looks like you're celebrating something.

Big decision maybe?

It's just dinner.

In fact, now that you two are here,

you should stay.

Yeah, I could eat.

I'm not sure there's enough room.

Let's hear it for the cool kids' table, huh?

Give me something.

No?

Uh, KJ, did your dad tell you about

all the new recruiters coming to the showcase?

Yeah. My dad tells me everything you're up to.

OK.

Um, Amina, did you do anything interesting today?

Please say yes.

Let's see. Today, I stopped by your school,

where I had the sweetest, sweetest conversation

with my dear friend Khalil.

I'm a terrible friend and a terrible daughter.

I am the problem here.

After that, I went home to study,

but then my dad forced me to come here, so...

Wait. You went home after South Crenshaw?

Yeah. Is that OK with you?

I'm sorry.

Is there something going on I don't know about?

You know, Coach, I don't know.

Is there, Amina?

OK, you know what, this is ridiculous.

Sorry. You... you can have that.

Nope. It's fine.

Bet you don't eat this good at school.

I know I didn't.

Can we please not talk about school?

Sorry. I... I thought tonight was

supposed to be a study break for me.

Great idea, Amina. No more boring school talk.

Look, how about we talk about

all this great food Breonna brought?

I can't take all the credit.

Coop said she used to love this as a kid.

Really? Coop said she loved

umami-infused rib bites as a kid?

You know, we don't need to talk about food either.

Or talk at all.

Fine by me, all right?

How about we all just finish our meals

without any more...

Come on!

Now what?

I hope I'm not interrupting.

I just wanted to stop by

and give this packet to Khalil.

KJ? I didn't know you were here.

Just full of surprises, aren't you?

Um, yeah, yeah.

It all just kind of happened last minute.

I see. It actually smells really good in here.

Tori, you want to join us?

Sure.

Welcome to the kids' table.

So catch me up. What'd I miss?

Well, KJ was gonna tell us

about his trip to the Bay.

Oh, great. KJ's barely told me anything about it. So...

Hmm.

I mean, um...

nothing really happened.

I just hung out with my mom.

I... saw some friends. It was... it was cool.

Yeah. KJ's mom lives pretty close to Dinsberg,

right, Amina?

Surprised you two didn't hook up.

I mean, it's like an hour away.

That's a lot of time.

Time reveals truth, right?

You know, I wish you could've seen Coop

hold her own with the other lawyers.

She was like a rock star.

Not surprising.

I mean, it ain't no different than being onstage.

You just got to get the crowd rooting for you,

and then, boom, mic drop.

More like gavel drop.

Very nice.

Hey, I got to say,

these might be the best wings I've ever had.

Did you know that they vent the boxes?

Clutch move.

Hey, listen, real quick,

I just want to say that I know this dinner

didn't go exactly as planned.

And if that doorbell rings one more time,

I'm probably gonna lose it, but...

it really means a lot

to me that you guys are here

-and I just... -Amina!

You must've lost your damn mind.

I give up.

I just got off the phone with your dean at Dinsberg,

but apparently, I've already had

a long talk with him yesterday.

Is there something you need to tell me?

-Um... -Speak up.

Um...

There's no dead week.

I can't hear you.

There's no dead week.

I wrote an article calling out Dinsberg

for staying silent after an ICE raid.

They wouldn't let me publish it,

so I released it anonymously online anyway.

Now I'm suspended pending expulsion.

So you've been lying to us this whole time?

Coop, I got this.

So you've been lying to us this whole time?

Well said.

What the hell were you thinking?

I was thinking that Dinsberg,

a school that's already on stolen land,

said nothing when ICE took their custodian.

But I guess I'm the only one who cares about that, right?

Well, I guess I'm the only one who cares about your future,

'cause you threw it away so damn casually.

Hold on. Preach, I know you're upset. I am, too.

But she just stood up for something she believed in.

Didn't you teach her that?

I didn't teach her to lie to me.

OK, I'm just saying, there's nothing wrong

with doing what you think is right.

I mean, Breonna, help me out.

Honestly, I understand where Preach is coming from.

That didn't help.

Listen, opportunities like Dinsberg,

they don't come around often for Black girls like us, so...

I'm nothing like you.

I'm trying to make a difference now,

not in 10 years, when it'll be too late.

Well, the only thing you gonna do is go home

and go to your room.

And just one last thing.

Which one of you fools pretended to be me, huh?

Khalil knows better.

And my son wouldn't do anything so...

-It was me. -Dumb.

Oh. OK, Denzel.

How about you drop one of your Preach gems?

No, how about this?

Pretend that I'm yelling at a kid who's in trouble.

OK, let's take it easy on poor KJ.

He's been telling so many lies,

he probably can't keep them straight.

Um, Tori, let's go get some air, OK?

Nope. I'm good.

You sure there's nothing you want to tell me, KJ?

Or you, Amina?

Hey, um, can we maybe go talk in private?

What kind of private?

Private like the conversation

you had in the hallway with Amina earlier

or private like the dance you had with Amina at Dinsberg?

Yeah. I found this on the Dinsberg website:

#loveacrosstime.

Y'all see?

Yeah, there are a few, but this one,

this one's my favourite.

Look, I'm sorry that I didn't tell you,

but I only went because it was an emergency.

What kind of emergency has you rushing over to Dinsberg?

Well, she needed a date for her dance.

Look, she organised the whole thing,

and... and she spent so much time

setting it up that,

look, she had no one to go with.

It's only an emergency if it's your girlfriend.

Or if you, like...

Just tell me the truth.

Did something happen?

I can't believe I trusted you.

Tori, I'm sorry, OK? It was a stupid mistake.

Is there anybody you not lying to?

I know you like to make everything about you, Khalil,

but this isn't, so stay out of it.

Did y'all sleep together?

-What? No. -No.

Why should I believe anything that you say?

We all know Amina's a professional liar.

Just ask her dad.

Hey, can we just...

can we just go talk someplace else?

OK, guys, let's just relax for a minute, OK?

I'm sure KJ did not mean...

I don't need you to talk for me.

In fact, I don't need you talking to me.

Whoa. Jordan was just trying...

Nah, nah. You keep talking about Coach like that, bro,

we gonna have a issue.

Oh, your coach.

I guess he didn't tell you about his job offer

to go coach at Beverly.

Say what?

Coach, is that true?

Yeah.

How could you not tell me

you're leaving for Beverly?

Did you know about this?

Yes, I did, but I just...

Look, I didn't want to say anything

until it was for sure.

Oh, so it's for sure now?

Look, nothing is definite yet.

We can do damage control with Dinsberg.

Right. I am sure that if Amina just apologises,

they would be open to...

Wait. I'm not apologising

if I didn't do anything wrong.

You sure? 'Cause I can think of a few things.

Look, I know I messed up. It was dumb.

And yet what I still haven't heard is

that it didn't mean anything.

Just tell me the truth. Are you going to Beverly?

Just be honest for once.

-To be fair, I... -Unlike you...

I have been nothing but upfront since the beginning.

You are the one who's sneaking around with Cliff Mosely

unless that was KJ doing another impression.

Are you really working with that scum?

Considering it.

So if you go to Beverly,

does that mean I'm coming with you?

What, and take my spot? Yeah, keep dreaming.

He's not taking your spot.

-So you are taking my job? -So you're leaving me behind.

I didn't say that!

You're not even listening to me.

Won't you even read the article?

If you wanted me to read it, I would've read it already.

Now you're gonna write a letter to Dinsberg

saying how sorry you are.

That I will read.

Until then, I don't wanna hear another word from you.

Hey, easy, Preach. Don't you think that's a little harsh?

No. I think Preach is just...

This is none of your business.

I'm sure you'd be the first in line

to defend ICE if you could.

Enough, OK?

This has gotten way out of hand, even for this house.

Everyone go to a corner and cool off.

Now!

Hey, you leaving?

Look, I don't need to cool down, man.

And since KJ is

suddenly so interested in private schools,

he needs to go home and study.

I'm sorry about tonight.

But maybe we can meet up tomorrow.

I mean, we do still have a showcase to plan.

I think I've heard enough about your plans, man.

OK. I don't know how much you really know about Cliff,

but he was gone from the booster club for years

for a reason.

I wouldn't trust anything that man says.

And I wouldn't trust London.

His loyalty is fickle.

So what now?

After everything, we're just gonna go back

to hating each other?

I'll see you at the showcase.

Where are you going?

I'm not sure. I haven't decided yet.

OK. I'm sorry you found out this way.

OK, I didn't want to say anything

because nothing is certain, Khalil.

But you're considering it.

I am. Yeah. It ju... it just, listen,

nothing will change between us. I promise.

But you can't promise that.

If you're coaching at Beverly,

you'll be competing against me.

It'll be your job to make sure I lose.

So explain to me,

how is that not gonna change things?

You definitely found the best corner.

You know, I was gonna go outside,

but that Tori girl went that way.

She kinda scares me.

Well, look, I... I am sorry about tonight.

I know it was a lot different than our Ojai trip.

I know, right? Thank God.

But I thought you had a good time.

I did with you.

But you know what else is great about Ojai, babe?

Pools and spas.

You know what we saw none of? Pools or spas.

At least your friends know how to have fun.

Fun? They argued the entire time.

If I didn't love hearing people argue,

I wouldn't be a lawyer.

Your friends are just passionate. I like 'em.

Even Amina?

I still think she could be a great lawyer.

But that was a family issue

that I was gonna stay out of

until someone asked me what I thought

and then got upset when I didn't agree with her.

You figured that out, huh?

You're a good lawyer.

More like I'm just good at reading you.

Preach and I, we've always had each other's backs.

And at the time we didn't,

I just hoped it'd be you that did.

I'm sorry it felt like that,

but you're never going to have somebody's back

by just agreeing with everything they say.

So I get to disagree with you now.

Of course, of course.

Listen, no one understands what Preach has been through

more than you.

He's had to fight for everything his whole life.

And I think he just wants better for Amina.

There is nothing wrong with that.

Oh. You are a good lawyer.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I hope you know how sorry I am.

I'm not sure I know you at all anymore.

Please. Would you just read the article?

I know you'll understand.

Is there anything in that article that says

it's OK to lie to me, to my face repeatedly?

I thought we had a good relationship.

I thought we trusted each other.

I was gonna tell you tonight,

but then dinner happened.

What about the other times in the 3 days you been home?

Look, I wanted to tell you the truth

so many times.

I was just afraid how you'd react.

After everything we been through...

it just sucks that you didn't think I'd understand.

And that broke my heart.

I'm guessing you don't want to hear my Preach impression

right now.

Good guess.

Look, I shouldn't have argued with you

in front of Amina.

That's my fault. That was a family issue.

Nah. You family, Coop.

I appreciate you.

But you know the good thing about family is

they forgive you even when you messed up.

No. She messed up bad, Coop.

Come on. She ain't mess up that bad.

Look at me. Ain't nobody get shot.

Look, I can't say that I ain't never lied to my parents,

but when I did, it was usually because I was scared.

That's what Amina is right now... scared.

And she did something she thought you would be proud of,

and she got suspended for it.

Am I supposed to be proud of her for this?

Not at all.

You are supposed to make sure that she knows

you got her back no matter what

and that she's not in this alone.

And maybe read the damn article.

Gonna be all right, man.

What'd you think?

It was really good.

I just wish I was the first one to read it

instead of the last.

Yeah.

I do, too.

So you saw ICE take them and nobody tried to stop it?

Nobody did a thing.

Man, you gonna find out

this world is full of people that are vindictive,

stupid, scared, and all of the above.

But you've got to be better than them.

Dad, I just couldn't stay silent.

Well, you don't have to be silent.

Just be smart.

You think I'm cool with every decision

my bosses at South Crenshaw High School make?

But I don't quit. I don't get myself fired

because I know I can do more good for those kids

if I stay.

And everyone at Dinsberg is always talking about

how we're one big family.

Once I realised that was a lie,

I just...

I got so angry.

I get it.

But every fight is not your fight.

Right now I just need for you to be 16

and not take on the world's problems all by yourself,

and I promise we'll get through this together.

No snooty school's gonna mess up my girl's future.

Thank you, Dad.

But for now, you are grounded.

You do not leave this house without me by your side.

You hear me?

Yes.

Consider me like an ankle bracelet.

You get too far away, I go off.

You hear me?

Yes, sir.

Love you, old man.

I love you, too.

He said he hasn't decided yet.

But will by this weekend.

I mean, if he ain't turn it down by now,

he's probably not going to.

Hey, but don't sweat it, man.

A superstar like you gonna have

a bunch of coaches in your life.

But you only got one family.

Jordan was the whole reason I made QB.

If he leaves, what's gonna happen to my spot?

He ain't the one with the power, man.

He ain't in charge.

Coach Bobby knows who the best player on the team is.

Ain't that right?

That's right.

I'm really glad you called.

I'm not promising anything.

You don't have to.

I'm just glad you knew we'd be here for you

when you needed us.

I'mma get us something to drink.

What'd I tell you?

I knew Baker was gonna screw up.

Our son is hurting right now.

It's nothing to celebrate.

Um, thanks for staying to help clean.

No problem. It's the least I could do.

I mean, dinner was my idea.

And it's not like I'm in a rush

to get home to Preach and Amina.

I saw you and Breonna made up.

You really should get a wall in this kitchen.

She said she had a fun time,

which is not the word I would use

to describe tonight.

The night didn't go as planned,

but it was still a success.

No. I wouldn't use that word either.

Look, Breonna had fun with your friends,

and everybody likes her

and is really excited for you two,

including me.

I'm sorry that I questioned your happiness.

It's all good.

I mean, you were just looking out, right?

Plus, I hear that's what good friends do.

Yes. And good friends support each other

no matter what.

I'm really glad you're happy.

Thank you.

Hiding in the bushes?

You've gone from liar to stalker really quickly.

I was just waiting for you to get home.

Not helping your stalker case.

I just wanted to talk to you in private.

I don't have anything else to say to you.

As far as I'm concerned,

you and Amina are both liars, who deserve each other.

There is nothing going on between me and Amina.

It was one mistake.

I got to tell you, I am so glad you called me.

It seems not everyone is onboard

with London's decision.

And do you know what that means?

We can finally get rid of Jordan Baker.

Where do we start?

Greg, move your head.
