Rowr!Eat your breakfast.

Breakfast with the League
of Women Voters at 8:30,

then a meeting with the
Hispanic Federation at 11:00.

I'm on by 9:45,
no exceptions.

I told them 9:30
with a hard out at 10:00.

Keep your remarks
under 30.

You two are becoming a staple
in my kitchen,

like my coffee maker.

Only four weeks left.

It's down to the wire.

Well, Cori, if my husband
hasn't already told you,

you are doing an amazing job
as campaign manager.

Oh, I tell her all the time.No, you don't.

But it's better that way.

My mother said needing praise
is a sign of weakness,

giving it,
a sign of guilt.

Yikes.Indeed. Yikes.

I'd like to review the itinerary
with your wife, if I may?

Sure.Um, well, his wife is
right here,

so you can speak
with her directly.

I didn't want
to overstep.

Two events today.

Today?Today -- League of Women Voters

this morning, then lunch
at Gods Love We Deliver.

It's important
that we project the image

of you as being a happy,
charitable couple.

Well, the good news
is that we area happy,

successful,
charitable couple.

But the bad news is,

we're going to have to
project it some other time.

It's important.

Uh, just this once.

N-No.
I have a full day.

David, we talked about
respecting my time.

I mean, it's not even 7:30,
and it's starting?

This is the new us?

I'm sorry. You're right.

Yeah. I know.

Well, it's good
to see you, Bree.

I'm glad you came in
on your own.

That makes one of us.

Well, are you trying
to save your marriage

because you love your husband or
you're terrified of being alone?

Okay, wow.

We're just diving right off
into the deep end like that,

just no warning?

Can't we start off
with something easier,

like my relationship
with my mom?

Which I have a lot to say about,
by the way, 'cause she was --

Bree, we'll get to
your mom another session.

Okay, um...

Look. Yeah, the idea
of being alone scares me a bit.

How could it not?

I mean, I've been with Gary
since college,

and I'm not good...

with change
or trying new things.

And I want to try
to save my marriage,

but what really
scares me is...

getting back together
with Gary,

and I can't fully forgive him
for what he's done.

And then we break up again,
and this time,

I'm just older and less sexable
than I am now.

Well, you'll be happy
to learn

that what you're feeling
is not that uncommon.

Now, my advice
in most cases

would be to do
whatever you can

not to look
in the rearview mirror.

Instead, look at the life
around you as it is now.

Okay.But in your case,

I'm gonna recommend
the exact opposite.

Let me get this straight --

You want me to look
in the rearview mirror?

You want me to look
back there?

You know Gary had
a side piece back there.

Back there is
a nightmare for me.

Don't you remember
any of this --

The polar bear shelf?

Well, before
this side piece,

there was a time
when you fell in love with Gary

enough to commit
your life to him, right?

Yeah.

I...guess it wasn't all
a nightmare back there.

I think you'd do well to go back
to the actual place

where you first remember
falling in love with Gary

and see if you can recognize
the person he was then

and the person he is now.

Maybe then
you'll be less afraid

to take whatever
the next step might be.

Um, would you care for still
or sparkling while you wait?

Yes. Um --Two dry martinis, please.

Thanks, Vidal.

Ari.
Kat.

So good to see you.So good to see you.

I'm sorry I'm late.
That child custody mediation

was supposed to be cut and dry,
and it was anything but.

You know clients change
their minds

when everything's
on the line.

I know, and they can change
their mind 100 times.

I will still bill them
by the hour regardless.

You look good.

Political life
treating you well.

Thank you, but David
hasn't been elected yet.

Well, all the pundits say
he's a shoo-in.

I hope you're right.

Oh, I'm rarely wrong.
And I'm willing to bet

that you will be practicing law
before the month is out.

I beg your pardon?

No, no, no, no, no. Davis Polk's
gotten much too big.

I didn't say you'd be working
back at the firm.

Oh, thank you.

Tell me you don't miss
practicing law.

Great.
Let me cut to the chase.

When I left Davis Polk,
I started my own firm.

It's small -- four attorneys,
including me.

You'd be the fifth
if you joined us.

Your starting salary.

Okay, Kat.

You just happened
to have an offer for me

in your pocket.

I don't leave anything
to chance.

Now, what do you say?

Here we go.

Mm, coming here
smelling so good, girl, mm!

Looking so, so good.
How you gonna do that to me,

come up in the spot
smelling like this?

All right.

Get off me.
What do you want?

Okay, we gonna talk
about the tour.

I talked
to a booking agent.

She's convinced that we gonna
sell out every single date.

I'm already working
on a preliminary song list

from "Love Slave."

Not "Love Slave."

Those -- Those songs
are 15 years old.

My new album
is dropping tomorrow.

Why wouldn't I promote
my new material?

It's silly.Because we also using this tour

to announce this partnership,
all right?

So we need
to promote our shit.

Besides, when people come
to a show,

what do they want to hear?
They want to hear your hits.

Your new record is --

doesn't really have
that mass appeal yet.

My single is number-one
on the charts.

It's what people want to hear.
I mean, that's evident.

But, see,
the only reason why

the record's even
doing anything

is because of our --
our headlines, a'ight?

Now, it's time you faced
the truth, baby girl.

Look.
It's our drama

that is climbing
to the top of the charts,

not your song.

Wow.

The truth is...

You saw that I was doing well
for myself without you,

and you tried
to shut it down.

This label isn't
a collaboration.

This is a power move...Babe, what are you
talking about?

...so you can control me.What are you talking about?

I am going out on a limb
for this.

Excuse me?

I am the biggest artist
you have ever had.

Stop with
this bullshit, Derek.

You're only out for yourself,
always have been.

Oh, really? That is the pot
calling the kettle black.

And what about
what you do, huh?

You can act all high and mighty,
but we both know you did not

get to where you are
thinking about other people.

Well, that's changing.

It's a new day.

Didn't you
get the memo, baby?

Well, you go ahead
and walk out there.

Go ahead,
and this deal is done.

All of it is done.

I don't care.

I would rather fail
on my own

than succeed
with your punk ass.

A'ight.

I had a really great lunch
with Kat.

Oh, yeah?

How is the Pit Viper
of Paternity Cases doing?

David, you can't
call her that.

Stop. And she's a very big fan
of yours.

Oh, big enough of a fan to make
a fat campaign donation

with lots of commas and zeroes
to the left of the decimal?

Ugh, do you never
stop working?

Well, speaking of which,

I think I might like
to jump back in.

Where?The job market.

Megan is doing
really well,

and Cori, obviously,
has you handled now.

I'm feeling
a little restless.

Mm-hmm. Yeah,
I see what's going on.

You got a job offer.

Something like that, yeah.

You know what? I'm betting
you'll be even more desirable

two years from now
when we get back from Albany.

When we get back
from Albany?

Who said we were
going to Albany?

I believe that would be
the constituents of District 30.

You know what I mean.
I ain't going to Albany.

Very funny.No, I'm not joking.

David, I thought that you would
go up there during the week,

and then you would
come home on the weekends

while I stayed here
and held down the fort.

And now with this
new opportunity --

All right, no, stop --
stop right there.

Why would you ever think
you'd stay here

while I went to Albany?

Because, David,
my whole life is -- is here.

Well, my whole life is here
at the moment, too.

But things change.David --

I am not interested
in being in that town

as a first-term
black senator alone

without my wife
by my side.

David, we never
actually discussed

both of us
moving to Albany full-time.

Ari, there will be
other opportunities.

You don't have to feel like
this is your only one.

Oh -- Sorry.

Hey, Cori, just a sec.

Just relax
and let everything play out.

Hey! Oh, my God.
You're still here.

Do you remember me?

Me and my boyfriend, Gary,
used to come here

all the time
back in the day.

We would, like,
be clubbing,

and then we'd come here
in the morning,

'cause we really needed
some greasy food

to soak up all that alcohol --What do you want?

And you were so mean
back then, too!

Ooh, you were so mean.

Aww, this reminds me
of my 20s right now.

What do you want?

Well, my therapist said
I should re-create my past.

So two hot dogs
with mustard and relish.

Gary used to call it
"breakfast of champions."

-$7.

Who hurt you?

I was so foolish
to think that Derek changed.

Maya Angelou said,

"Someone shows you who they are
the first time, believe them."

She also said, "We may encounter
many defeats,

but we must not
be defeated."

Ari and Bree
tried to warn me.

But I wouldn't listen.

Okay, all right. Hazel?
Hazel, listen to me.

You're gonna be okay,
I promise.

How do you know that?

'Cause I know
something you don't.

And what's that?I know exactly how

my dad cheated you
out of so much money for years

while you were married.

Mmm!

Just as delicious
as it was before.

Can't believe we've been
coming here for 20 years.

Now...

Even now,

despite all the bullshit,
I can still see it.

I see our whole life together.

I love you no matter what,
Gare-bear.

I love you, too, Bree,
so much.

Wow, this exercise
really does work.

I feel like I'm listening
to him right now.

No. O-Open your eyes.

It's the breakfast of champions.

How did you --
Did you follow me?

No, I didn't follow you,

When -- When Odessa told me
to go to the place

where I first knew
that you were the one,

it was like
a total of seconds

before I knew exactly
where it was.

And -- And --
And to answer her question

on whether or not there was
enough of who you were then

in who you are now,

oh, the answer
is completely clear.

Bree, I love you.

I love you, too, Gary.

And I want to work
on our marriage.

Oh, God, I'm so happy
to hear you say that.

Mwah.
Oh, baby.

I love you so much.

Mm.

Oh, wait. My phone's ringing.
Wait one second. Sorry.Hey, what? Oh, okay, all right.

No, that's fine.Yeah, don't spill it,

'cause you know --Nope. I got it.

I got it, I got it.Hello?

I can't hear anything. Hello?Under the earmuff. Under.

Oh, under the ear.There you go.

Hello? That's better.I know.

Hey, Hazel. Guess what? I just
ran into Gary at the park.

Tell her we got hot dogs.Yeah!

What -- Slow down.
He did what?

Oh, hell no!

Girl, girl, stop.
St-- Slow down.

Meet me at my place
right now, okay?

Okay, I got to go, Gary.Baby, but the breakfast
of champions is gonna --

I know. We'll do it,
we'll do it. I love you.

I love you, too!I love you so much!

All right.

Bye, baby.
Bye!

Girl, that Negro been
stealing from me!

What? How?

My dad had two sets
of accounting books.

Uh, two sets?
Like T-W-O? Plural?

So all the money we made
from "Love Slave" --

Was only a fraction
of what she actually made.

That triflin'
piece of shit.

God.

That is a new low,
even for Derek.

Oh, no, no, honey.

That's the same
kind of low.

Hey, Breezy, it's me.

Hey, Versace. Listen, Bree,
I came as fast as I could.

You said it was important.

Is everything okay?

Hey, Ari.

I'm gonna give you guys
a second.

Look, Ari. W-We just --

Ari, please.
Just -- Just wait.

At least give me a chance
to apologize.

Yes, let her apologize.

She apologized to me.
It was so good.

I even let her grovel
a little bit before accepting.

Look, I was wrong,
and you were right.

And -- And I...

I could never repay you

for everything that you --
you do for me

and how you're always there
i-in my time of need,

and I'm sorry that I took
our friendship for granted.

"And I will
love you like a sister."

I think that's enough,
I think.

No, "I will love you
like a sister."

And I will -- I will --
I will never --

Okay, dummy.

Of course I forgive you.Ohh!

Of course I forgive you.

I'm sorry, too!

That was so stupid.

That was stupid.
I'm so --

Hey, ladies.

Oh, oh, oh.So, we don't have all day.

We got a lot of corruption
to cover.

-Ohh.
-Holy shit.

I'll get the wine.

And the blue cheese.

You got weed?

After combing through
all my dad's files

that we got in the heist,

more than a few things
raised red flags.

I just didn't put it all
together until I printed it out.

Okay, so, this is
the real bank statement,

and this is the one
he reported is real.

Mm-hmm. -
This is some next-level shit.

I didn't think Derek was
this smart or I was this stupid.

So, let me get this right.
He's been under-reporting

his income
and hiding the excess?

Yes. And what's worse,
he stole millions from Hazel

and used that money
to start the new label.

Oh, I hate him!

He is evil!

Sorry. I know
it's your dad.

He wouldn't pay
for my college.

He said he was cash-poor,
and meanwhile,

he had millions in the bank.

So please go ahead and talk
as much shit as you want.

I think it's clear
what we need to do.

What's that?

We need to take him out.

Okay, no.I mean it.

He's got to go.

Hazel, no.

No hit men,
no murder, no way.

We talked about this.Well, we got to do something.

Well, can't we just report
his crooked ass?

Well, yeah, tax fraud
is a federal crime.

And if we present this
to the IRS,

the government
will seize his assets,

and he's looking at
15 to 20 behind bars.

Oh, hell yeah. He deserves
to be somebody's prison bae.

Butif we report him,

you don't get
the assets, either.

And I would hate
to see you lose

everything you worked
so hard for.

Okay, wait. But why don't
we just sit him down

and force him
to negotiate with us?

I mean, once he finds out
what we've got on him --

-No.
-No, no, no, no, no, honey.

We been there. We tried that.

We're done negotiating.

We're done being polite.

We need to get a little bit
more creative.

And I think I have a plan.

Mnh-mnh.This is why
I mess with you, girl.

Mnh-mnh. No.

Yeah.
No.

Yeah.
No, Ari.

You said the heist was the only
job we would be doing.

Hazel?Hmm?

Sweetie?Yeah.

I need you to call 'dem boyz.

Can you do that?No.

Oh, yes.Okay.

No. No!

We're not calling dem boyz,
okay?

"Call dem boyz,
call dem boyz, call dem boys."

Are we calling dem boyz?

That's why the name
of this joint Ellevate,

'cause that's
what we about to do.

Yo, my man, put that
in the corner office. Thank you.

Now, come check your boy
when you got a minute, a'ight?

Cool.

Hey, baby.

Not now. I'm busy.

With what?

My album drops
at midnight!

And Hazel's single
has been charting

higher than mine
for weeks.

Girl, it's just a single.

You about to have the number-one
album in the world, all right?

How? Hazel's face
is everywhere.

Billboards
and bus benches.

Where the hell
am I, Derek?

Come on. Look around you.

Look, I been doing this
forever, right?

Now, trust me.

Turn that frown upside down.
Come on. Smile for me.

-FBI!
-Police!

The hell is going on?

You're under arrest.Asshole.

The hell you talking about,
I'm under arrest? For what?

You have the right
to an attorney.

You have the right
to remain silent.

Anything you say can be used
against you in a court of law.

And -- And...
And you know the rest!

Stella, call my lawyer!

Okay, Bree.

You a bad bitch,
and you ain't afraid of nothing.

Say it and mean it.
You are a bad bitch,

-and you ain't afraid --
-This is bullshit!

-You know that, right?
-It is bullshit.

Holy cow! They got him!

Okay, they got him.
Here we go.

What the hell are y'all doing?

You don't worry
about what we doing!

Hell no! What kind of cops --
Take these cuffs off!

Take these cuffs off!What's the matter?

You don't like bondage?

How about some S&M, huh?

Shut up
and get in the van!

No! No!

Just like "Wild Kingdom."

Aah!

Damn, girl.
You ain't playing.

Sho' ain't, motherfucker.

Y'all ain't no damn FBI.

No shit.

Listen to me.

Whoever's paying you,

I could triple that.

He's awake.

Connecting us now.

What the hell is going on?

Good morning,
sleepy head.

I should've known
you was behind this.

What the hell
y'all inject me with?

It was just a sedative.

You'll recover physically.

Now, emotionally
and financially,

I don't know
if you'll ever be the same.

You know this is
kidnapping, right?

When I get out of here,
I'ma make you pay.

No. What you're gonna do
is sit there and listen,

because I have the floor
and the leverage,

and I'm gonna use
that leverage

to get back every cent

you stole from me.

I ain't giving you shit.

Oh, no. You will.

You see, I found your bank
accounts and your tax forms.

Both sets.

So either you play nice,

or I'm gonna give those files
to the authorities,

and you can listen
to my brand-new record

in your tiny prison cell.

It's your choice, baby.

A'ight, what you want?

Three words.

E. Vry. Thing.

And in music news, the saga of
hip-hop's former first couple,

Hazel Rachelle
and Derek Ellsworth,

has reached
an absolute fever pitch,

as cameras captured an obviously
distressed Derek Ellsworth

being escorted
out of the building

in his pajamas.

Sources tell us
the contentious divorce

between the former power couple

has taken a turn
in Hazel's favor.

Stay tuned.

Oh, my God.

He looks like a sad
black Hugh Hefner.

What happened?

Aw, I kinda
feel sorry for him.

You do?For real?

Of course not.
Screw Derek.

I'm the one that called the
paparazzi in the first place.

Ooh!Savage.

That is petty.
That's like Tom Petty.

Girl, I figured it's not enough
to get my penthouse back.

He needed to eat
some humble pie.

Well, remind me never to divorce
Hazel Rachelle, honey.

That's right.
Don't do it.

In the eyes!

In the eyes!In the eyes!

Look, I know it's gonna
be hard to hear this.

Bree?Hmm?

I'm finally leaving
your nest for good.

I'm --

I know you're gonna
be miserable without me.

You don't have to say it.

I'm gonna miss you like I'm
gonna miss having foot fungus.

But I love you,
and I'm so happy for you.

And it comes
at a really good time,

because...I have
some good news.

What?

Gary's gonna move back in.

And we're calling off
the divorce.

Oh!

Oh, my God.Yeah.

Oh, my God. I'm so happy
for you, Breezy.

Me, too, me, too.Are you serious?

Yeah. We're gonna try
and work it out

and support each other
and still go to therapy and --

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
What did you say?

Did you say "therapy"?

You mean with, like,
a trained professional?

Okay, yes, Ari.

You were right, okay?Mm.

There is something
to therapy.

"Not a real science."

Never not about me.

Hazel, how you feeling
about the new album?

Yeah!Um, I'm really happy

that it's finally dropping,

and I'm really proud

of the work Khalil and I
did together.

He'll call
when the time is right.

Exactly.
All in due time.

I love you guys.

I love you, too.
We're still partying, right?

Because I got a babysitter,
and I got my eyebrows threaded.

So we still partying.Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

Okay.Hell yeah.
We have much to celebrate.

-Yas!
-Yas!

Today is the day.

Stella Bentley and
Hazel Rachelle's
albums have dropped,

and it's gonna be
a fight to the finish.

No matter who takes the top
spot, I hear our girl Hazel

is celebrating her release
in style.

All right, everyone.

At this time, I would like
to welcome Sasha to the stage.

Hey, everybody.

Thank you for
coming out tonight.

I'm Sasha Mitchell, and tonight

to honor my bonus-mom,

the one and only
Hazel Rachelle.

A woman who took me
under her wing when I was kid.

A woman who put money aside
to help me pay for not one,

but two degrees,

'cause that's how dope she is.

We're here to celebrate
the release

of her amazing new album

and all her
many accomplishments.

So, without further ado,

everybody with hands
or a holler,

give it up for Hazel Rachelle!

- Hazel! Hazel!
- Hazel! Hazel!

-Hazel! Hazel! Hazel!
-Hazel! Hazel! Hazel!

Thank you.
Thank you, everybody.

Um, Sasha,
that was not a gift, darling.

That was a loan.

-Ooh!

Um, when I started,

I had to rely on a lot of men
in the industry,

men who tried to mold me
into something else,

because they thought
that who I was wasn't enough.

And after a while, I started
believing that myself.

But...

with the help
of my true friends,

I realized that I was
more than enough.

Shit, I might be too much.

Listen, growing older

doesn't mean that your story
or your voice is irrelevant.

It just means that you have
more stories to tell.

Hazel, I'ma let you finish,

but not before
I congratulate you

for hitting number one
on the Billboard charts!

How do you know that?

I got some insider
information.

All right, everybody.
Let's get this party started!

We did it!

No, stop.Oh, my God. We did it!

Hey, stop it.
Youdid it.

You did it.

I can't even believe
you're here.

Aw, come on, now.
You know damn well

your number-one fan
was gonna be here.

I'm so happy for you.

Thank you so much
for pushing me.

We good?

Yeah, we good.
Don't you worry 'bout it.

You just give me a call when
you need a producer, all right?

I definitely will.

Do your thing, all right?

Thank you.

Life is what you make it.

And when times get tough,

your friends are the ones
who get you through it.

They remind you
that supporting your partner

and his dreams and his ambitions

doesn't mean
you relinquish your own.

Ooh, hallelujah.

Yeah!A'ight, where should I put this?

They show you
that an act of forgiveness...

...is sometimes

the bravest path we can choose.

Just get it right there
like this. I got it.

And they help you
turn your darkest moments

into opportunities to come back

even stronger than before.

Well, you have had quite a year,
haven't you?

-Yes.
-You flipped

a very, very public scandal

into a number-one album,

and now you're
your own boss.

So what's next for you
and your new label?

This is more than a label.

This is my baby.

It's a creative safe space

for the next generation
of female artists

looking for allies

in this crazy,
very male-dominated industry.

If I learned anything
from my girls in the past year,

it's that when women
support each other,

there's nothing we can't do.

That's the kind of world
I want to help create.

The next chapter of our lives

has yet to be written.

Our story is far from over.

It's only just begun.
