Previously on
Saints and Sinners:

-What's her name?
-Jessica! Jessica! Yes!

Jabari's never gonna give
up his stake at UpSurge.

Otherwise he's gonna find out

that his wife is still alive,
and you've been helping

keep her hidden.

What the hell is your problem?

You're not fit to
shine my sons shoes,

much less fill them.

Would you be willing to give
the police a sample of your DNA?

No. Why would I do that?

Mile Calloway arrested for the
murder of Malik Thompson.

Ella is gonna start
asking questions.

I'm your father.

[Soft Music]

[Pounding on Door]

[Knocking Continues]

[She Sighs]

Hmm.

Oh. Penthouse in the sky.

I didn't realize
this was your taste.

Well, you sold my estate,

figured I'd shake
things up a bit.

Oh Leona,

this place is worth more money
than you ever had in the bank.

Well, I'm resourceful.

And I have assets that you
could only dream of reaching.

Now, why are you here?

You're interrupting my tea time.

We need to talk.
[Leona Scoffs]

You didn't seem
interested in talking

the last time we saw each other.

Why did you lie
to me about daddy?

Why did you make me believe
that he was my father?

Daniel Byrd is the greatest
gift I have ever given you.

Yeah, and then you killed him.

Well, that's the
thing about gifts,

you always keep the receipt.

Oh, damn it Leona,
stop being so coy!

Can you just be transparent
for once in your life!

I tried to talk to you!

But you were disrespectful.

Your entire existence
is disrespectful.

I can promise you
that insulting me

is not going to get
you what you want.

Who's my father?

[She Sighs]

Tell me!

I want to hear it
from your mouth.

The family I provided

is the only family
you nee to know.

My real father is family.

Well you don't
have a father, Ella.

Consider your existence

a product of
immaculate conception.

Oh hell, we both know you
ain't the Virgin Mary.

I just want the truth.

Why won't you give me that?

I have given you

everything you needed.

Victor Thompson, oh
he told me the truth.

[Dramatic Chord]

Victor?

Oh, it's not so
immaculate after all, huh?

What did you say to him?

[Ella] Oh, he's here.

-In Cyprus?!
[Ella] Uh-huh. Yeah.

Uh, he came back
to handle Malik's affairs.

You stay away from him.

Why?

Are you afraid he'll expose you?

More of your lies?

No, he is not to be trusted!

Well he can just join the club.

Ella wait, please. Ella.

Listen to me, damn it!

Victor Thompson

he will drag you
straight to hell. You
stay away from that man!

He is the devil himself!

[Theme Music]

* Go on, lift your hands
give God the praise

* I fell so hard
Lost my faith in God

* I couldn't even pray,
so I say

* We're just sinners
saved by grace

With our dominance
on the airwaves,

you're buying at the right time.

Especially with local
media expanding.

WQCL has some of the top

producers this
state has to offer.

They've won countless
awards for their work.

[Anchor] Atlanta has
the highest rate

of missing black
women in Georgia.

Unfortunately Cyprus
isn't too far behind.

Ladies, please be safe.

Always trust your instincts,

and be vigilant of
your surroundings.

Joy!

I'd like to introduce
you to Jabari Morris,

the potential new
majority owner of WQCL.

Oh, pleasure to
meet you, Mr. Morris.

Likewise, likewise.

Oh, and this is Angela
Parks, his colleague.

More like partner.

Anita, I have a lead on the
Mayor Johnson paternity story.

-Ooh, exclusive?
-You know it.

And my sources
are always certified.

Okay, pursue it. Great job, Joy.

My protege. She's sharp.

And she'll do whatever it
takes to get the job done.
[Phone Vibrates]

Hello?

Okay.

Uh, just a moment.

Excuse me, I
have to take this call.

So, what do you think?

This is it, Jabari!

-I feel good about this.
-Yeah, yeah.

The Byrd's and the Johnson's
won't control the media
in Cyprus anymore.

Finally legit news
without any bias.

Hey, I'm sorry to be
the bearer of bad news,

but we have another offer.

You've been outbid.

-What? By whom?
-UpSurge.

-Upsurge?
-Are you sure, Anita?

I just received a phone call
from Victor Thompson himself.

-Victor.
-Yeah.

Well, what did he,

what did he offer?
Maybe I can match it.

He's offering 50%
over the asking price.

[Jabari Exhales Sharply]

[Handcuffs Clicking]

[Soft Dramatic Music]

[Chair Scrapes]

Hey.

How's Austin?

Austin? That's what
you're gonna start with?

-You killed Malik!
-You know I didn't kill him!

Well, explain your DNA
all over the crime scene

and on his body!

Tam, I never even
been arrested before!

Is that deflection?

No, it's just...

Okay look, look.

I need you to get me a lawyer.

I'm not getting you anything!

Let me just, just-

I don't want to hear
any more of your lies.

-Okay, tell me the truth now, or
I'm out of here permanently.
-Okay, okay, sit down,

okay? Sit down, sit down!

Just sit down, sit down.

[Pensive Music]

Alright, look.

I was there that night.

So you admit it. You killed him.

No, no, no, no. We just fought.

We just fought, that's it.

What're you doing here?

I just want you to stay
away from Tamara, okay?

She's been through
a lot already.

I get it man.

We both love her.

[Sighs] I'm not gonna hurt her.

And I'm gonna look
after your son, Austin.

[Dramatic Music]

[Malik Grunts]

[Grunting]

[Panting]

[Dramatic Music]

So you beat him to death.

Tam listen to me, Malik
was alive when I left.

-I promise you that.
-You could have told me

or the police about
this fight with Mailk.

I mean, why do you
hate me so much?

What'd I do?

-Tam, I don't hate-
-Don't.

I mean, I took a
lot of your lies.

Your infidelity.

[Somber Music]

I forgave you.

And for once, I was happy.

And you took that away from me.

[Sighs] I...

I didn't mean to.

I just, I just...

I just went over
there to talk to him.

And things escalated.

You... you shouldn't
have been there.

There was no reason for you to
be at Malik's office that night.

-You planned to kill him.
-Tam.

Tam. Tam!

Go to hell.

Tam!

[Victor] Rex Fisher, I presume.

Who wants to know?

Victor Thompson.

-Malik's father?
-Yes.

Is there a reason why
you're on my property?

I heard you saw my
son the night he died.

The cops arrested the killer.

So I suggest maybe
you talk to Miles about
killing your son Malik.

Hm, you and Miles work together?

That's none of your
business who I work with.

So I suggest you get
off my property.

Or you gonna end up like your
sorry-ass son, you understand?

Mm, if you played any role in

killing my son, you'll need more
than that gun to stop me.

Really?

Well, I like my odds.

Right.

There are other ways
to get information.

I'll find out what I want to
know through my daughter.

Felicia's in rehab.

She can't help you.

I was referring to
my other daughter,

mayor Ella Mae Johnson.

Oh, judging from the look on
your face, Ella didn't tell you.

Last to know?

And I thought I heard
you ran this town.

Enjoy your day, Rex.

Karinne, what's the update on
Jessica?

Jessica?

The patient from last night.

Did you guys discharge her?
I couldn't find her room
number in our records.

Unfortunately, that patient
died due to complications
from an infection.

Infection? What
type of infection?

A brain abscess.

Abscesses take
time to become fatal.

She had it for awhile.

But she wasn't showing any
signs of infection. If
anything, she was scared.

Excuse me,

only one of us
is a licensed doctor.

You don't have the
authority to question me.

Now get back to work.

[Ella] I've been
dealing with the devil

my whole life.

-Hell, I'm looking at her.
-Don't test me, Ella Mae.

What did he want?

He wanted to meet
his firstborn child.

The child that you
kept him away from.

As I already told you,

clearly he had no difficulty
meeting you now.

What kept him from
seeing you in the past?

You tell me.

Or are you gonna just
keep talkin' in riddles?

You're not ready for
the answers, Ella Mae.

You have no idea what
that monster is capable of.

That "monster" is my father.

But you had a child
with him, why? I mean,

he must have had
some good qualities.

I was never involved
with that bastard!

-What're you telling me,
that he raped you?
-No.

NO, Victor never raped me.

I was never with Victor.

In any way.

I suppose I have no choice but
to tell you before he does.

I didn't give
birth to you, Ella.

Oh no Leona, please,
please don't tell me

that you took me like
you did those others!

Our mother...

...gave birth to you, Ella Mae.

We're sisters.

[Dramatic Flourish]

Hello.

You're 8 minutes late.

Well I had a city
council meeting that

ran a little over.
You know, I am the mayor.

And I'm your father.

When you're scheduled
to meet with me, I
expect you to be on time.

You don't get to set ground
rules with me, Victor.

That's fair.

We do need to establish
our relationship first.

I uh, have something for you.

It uh, it was my mother's.

Mae, your grandmother.

Now it belongs to you, Ella Mae.

Oh, this is...

this is beautiful, thank you.

Wait a minute, wait, did you

reserve this entire restaurant?

We're the only people here.

I like my privacy.

I'm guessing you
didn't know that uh,

part of your name, Mae,
came from my mothers'.

No um, my mom, Leona,

she only told me
that I was named in honor
of my grandmother, Joella.

Grandmother? Hm.
Another one of Leona's lies.

Well at least with Leona's lies,

I can usually spot them.

She called you the devil,

And she's pretty convinced
that she's telling the truth.

What do you think is the truth?

Leona has caused me and my
children more pain than anyone.

But, she's the
devil that I know.

Well, there's a devil in
every story, Ella Mae.

And Leona should know, it's
usually the person staring

back at you in the mirror.

You know, I um...

I have so many questions.
I mean, there's,

there's just so much
I wanna know.

Perhaps I have answers.

Tell me about my mother. I mean,

my real mother.

Joella?
[Chuckles Softly]

She was a beautiful
and remarkable woman.

Very sweet, but, but you
didn't want to cross her,

she was no nonsense.
[Ella Chuckles]

I guess that's where
I get that from.
[Both Chuckle]

She died giving birth to you.

I never got over losing her.

I...

see so much of her in you.

You have her eyes.

Her beauty.

Of course, I'd like to
take credit for your,

for your brain,

as you are the mayor
of Cyprus, after all.

-Yes, I am.
-Excuse me,

Mayor Johnson, I'm with WQCL-

I know who you are,
what do you want?

Do you have any comment

on the news surrounding
your paternity?

You are so
unprofessional and rude.

Can't you see that I'm
having a private dinner?

As the mayor of Cyprus,
your constituents have a right

-to know what is-
-I don't have to
explain anything to you.

-So you have something to hide?
-Enough.

Here's your official statement,

there are no questions
surrounding Mayor
Johnson's paternity.

All parties involved
are very clear

on the mayor's lineage.

-So you know who your father is.
-You're speaking to
me now, young lady.

And you're also speaking to

mayor Johnson's father.

I'm Victor Thompson,

founder and chairman of UpSurge.

Now please, why don't
you go run that story
and let us enjoy our meal.

You do know that she is
going to air that comment

by tomorrow?

I predict within the hour.
[Ella Sighs]

Victor, I have

enough negative press
every day, Lord knows

I don't need any more.

It's handled.

To us?

To us.

Still thinkin' about
makin' that move?

I don't know.

I mean, Victor turns down
my idea to purchase WQCL,

and then he goes behind my
back and outbids me. What,
what the hell is that about?

I don't know, but,

there are some ways around that.

I could loan you the
money to outbid Victor.

Nah, no, we, we already been
down that road once man, and,

and on top of that, I don't
want any charity, man.

It's not charity Jabari,
it's just business.

Last time me and you did
business, it got real personal.

That's the past.

Okay? Forgiven and forgotten.

If you feel like this is
your best business move,

then you gotta do what you
gotta do to get that station.

You feel like you
don't want my help,

find another way.

Either way Jabari, why keep

working for a company that
doesn't believe in your vision?

Business proposition.

Hear me out.

I'll buy your shares and
board seat at UpSurge.

It's a good deal.

[Jabari Exhales]

No.

I appreciate it, thank you but,

I'll find another way.

Okay. Suit yourself, 'cuz.

[Tamara] Thank you
for stopping by.

This is Nancy, my nanny.

It's, it's so good
to finally meet you.

I'm sorry you had
to miss the funeral.

Yes, well I...

I needed time to process my
son's death on my own without

people who barely knew my
son giving me condolences.

I understand.

However, I can't imagine
what you must be
going through. You're

husband being charged
with murdering my son.

My ex-husband.

Malik loved you very much.

And I loved him.

I still do.

I believe that.

Especially since MIles' DNA

was somehow given to the police

after he refused to provide it.

I wanted to know the truth.
[Somber Music]

-Malik deserves justice.
-That he does.

I appreciate your efforts.

Just know that I'm here to help

you and your son
in any way I can. I,

intend to honor my
son's final wishes.

Thank you.

My pleasure.

Stacia please, I
gotta get out of here!

Miles, I can't.

There are other
attorneys in the area.

-Now I can refer
you to one of them.
-No.

I'm in good hands
with you, okay?

You fight hard for
all your clients.

Yes, I do.

But the problem is that
one of my clients, Malik,

is dead.

Now with you being
accused of murdering him,

Representing you is
a conflict of interest.

-I'm sorry.
-What the hell am I
supposed to do, huh?

I don't know how
to live in jail.

I don't deserve to be here!

do you remember anything
else about that night?

[Miles Scoffs]

Come on Miles,

I can't help you if you
can't remember anything.

Look, what I remember is Malik
was alive when I left UpSurge,

and I didn't put his body
in Mayor Johnson's pool.

I didn't have time.

What do you mean
you didn't have time?

I, I had an alibi.

An alibi?!

Why don't the police
know about this?

Because my alibi
is Tam's best friend.

Josie?

-Oh, great, I'll call her-
-No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

You don't understand, okay?

That night when I left UpSurge,

I was with Josie.

The entire night.

Tam can't know, okay?

Now look, I'll tell
her eventually, but

not while I'm in here.

There's gotta be another way.

There's gotta be.

[Pensive Music]

[Phone Ringing]

[Christie] Hi, this is Christie
Johnson, leave a message.

[Beep]

Hey, baby, um...

Tinie, um...
[Dramatic Music Swells]

I uh,

I just wanna talk.

Anf um...

apologize.

[Shuddering Breath]

There is...

so much going on right now.

And um...

I...

I just need my baby.

[Beep]
[Voice] If you'd like to
re-record your message,

press 1. If you completed your
message, please hang up.

[Beep]
[Automated Voice]
Message canceled.

You may re-record now.

[Sigh]

[Christie Sighs]

[Joy] Jessica Perkins has been
missing for over a week,

and is the most recent case in a

series of abductions of
young black women in Cyprus.

While Jessica has made
no contact with her family,

her mother Tanya Perkins
is still hopeful

for Jessica's safe return home.

I've been fastin' and prayin',

and I know she's gon' make her
way home to her mamma.

[Nurse 1] Almost
everything was donated.

[Nurse 2] Really?
[Nurse 1] Yeah.

She volunteered to donate
anything that could be of use.

[Nurse 2] Well that's great,
more lives can be saved.

But the only thing we
couldn't use was her brain,
due to the abscess.

[Christie Sighs]

Yeah, that's what
we're working on.

You placed a bid on WQCL?!

Let me get back to you.

[Jabari] You played me. Why?

Played you?

Owning the media here
can only benefit UpSurge,

and my daughter, Ella.

Controlling the narrative
is a big asset

for the future of the company.

That was my entire pitch!

The one I came up with your son!

The one you said was dumb!

Look, you wanted to protect
your evil-ass daughter,

I wanted to help Cyprus.

Right, right, but,

I actually have the resources
to get what I want.

Gentlemen, please get
this thug out of my office.

Don't touch me!

And uh, let me remind
you of the terms

of your contract, as long as you
work for UpSurge, I own you.

Oh, and Jabari?

Now you've been played.

[Dramatic Flourish]

[Sighs]

[Tamara] I see
where Malik got it from.

His father is alsovery charming.

[Josie] Well, I'm
glad you met him.

Yeah, but we both agreed to keep

Malik's legacy alive, and

ensure Miles pays
for what he did.

Tam come on, you know that Miles

didn't kill Malik.

Well, the evidence says he did.

He told me he
was there that night.

That they fought.

But, yeah, but you know Miles.

You've known Miles
for half of your life.

Do you really think that
he's capable of murder?

In the heat of the moment? Yes.

Besides, do I really know Miles?

I didn't think he would
be a habitual cheater, and,

look where that got me.

Cheating is one thing,

being a murderer is another.

Well I'm not calling
him a serial killer!

But a fight?

One punch can kill someone.

Anybody, including
either one of us,

can be a killer depending
on the circumstances.

Whose side are you on?

Josie, this man has put
me through so much.

I'm on the side
of truth, Tamara.

So you tell me this,
are you putting Miles

on trial because you
really think he's a killer?

Or because of your
own personal pain?

[Doorbell Rings]

Stacia, hey, what's going on?

-Can I come in?
-Sure.

Would you like
something to drink?

No, I can't stay long.

Is something wrong? More
paperwork you need me to sign?

I...

I came to let you know that
I'm taking Miles' case.

What?

-I'm representing him in the-
-I heard you.

[Tamara Scoffs]

You know, Malik was your boss.

I thought you were
his friend, now you want
to defend his killer?

Miles deserves representation
just like anyone else.

And I don't believe
that he's Malik's killer.

-He was there, Stacia.
-He fought with him, yes.

But that doesn't
make him guilty.

Plus I find it highly
unlikely that

Miles took Malik's
body from UpSurge

to Ella Johnson's house.

Exactly! See, I told you Tam,

even Stacia doesn't believe-

Josie, stop!
[Austin Cries]

I need you to come forward
and speak on Miles' behalf.

[Josie Scoffs]

I don't know what
you're talkin' about.

Your his alibi.

Miles told me that
he was with you

all night after
his fight with Malik.

Without you coming forward,

he could spend the
rest of his life in prison.

Think about it.

But we need to act fast.

[Leona] Oh, thank you.

[Ella Sighs]

Leona, what do you want?

I need for you to come
with me, Ella Mae.

What? Where?

I'm leaving town.

I know a lot has
happened between us, but,

I need for you to trust me now.

I am not leaving Cyprus.

-That man-
-That man is my father.

Oh, please!

Look, you have no idea

what I had to go through
to keep you safe.

-My sacrifices-
-Oh, I am so

tired of hearing about
your sacrifices.

The only way I can help you now

is for you to come with me.

But if you stay,

you're on your own.

Well I guess I'm on my own.

[Melancholy Music]

Okay.

This belonged to
our mother, Joella.

It was the only exquisite
jewelry she ever had.

Every time I tried to sell
it to take care of us,

some miracle came through,

and I was able to keep it.

I feel like...

it always protected
us through the years.

You keep it close to you.
[Dramatic Flourish]

Thank you.

Hey Anita, can I talk
to you for a second?

Angela, I've made my decision.

UpSurge's offer is way
too lucrative to refuse.

I have employees to worry about.

How do you know they'll
keep your employees
once they own the station?

We can add that to the terms.

Can't you see this is all Ella?

If her father's
company owns WQCL,

they'll want to ensure she
doesn't get any negative press.

Good to know that you're
following our coverage.

You do know that Joy
got the paternity exclusive.

Which is exactly why we need
to protect journalists like Joy.

If you take Victor's bid,
he and Ella will silence you.

You can forget about
reporting corruption on her,

and you can throw
your journalistic integrity
out the window.

Listen Angela, you give
some very valid points,

however, I am still a business
woman at the end of the day.
[Low Thrumming Music]

If Jabari can
provide that amount,

then we have a deal.

Now if you excuse me, I
have to get ready for my show.

[Anita] I need
that other folder.

-I'm going to come forward.
-No you're not, Josie!

It could get you released!

-Look, Tam has been
through enough as it is.
-Tam?!

Tam is not the one
that's sitting up here
in a jail cell, you are!

You are.

And if me being your
alibi can get them closer to

finding the real killer,
then it's worth it, right?

Look,

-I wanna tell her the truth,
-No!

Eventually she's gonna
find out anyway.

Why are you trying
to keep this a secret?

Look, hopefully,
hearing it from me

will lessen the blow.

Tam needs to hear
the truth from me.

Okay? From me.

Look, I will tell her.

Thanks.

Miles.

[Melodic Music Playing]

[Malik] Life is short.

It's messy.

But it's perfect with you in it.

So when you ask me
what you should pack,

all I want you to pack
is that white dress.

I offered Jabari the money,

he refused.

Well, can you blame him?

There's always strings
attached with you.

Okay, you give it to him.

-I don't have that kind of cash.
-But I do.

And he'll take it from you.

I'll give you a loan.

Uh more like a, deposit.

I'm not stupid.

You have Paige as
your weapon against me.

What do you want?

I could think of a few things.

[Car Alarm Chirps]

[Engine Turns Over]

Jabari can't know about this.

Have the attorneys draw
up the paperwork so he
can sign off on everything.

[Dramatic Flourish]

Looks like you just
bought Jabari a TV station.

[Doctor] Are ya done?

Yes, doctor.

Impressive.

-Good job.
-Thank you, Dr. Ross.

I wanted to apologize for the

excessive questioning
the other day.

No worries.

You're an extremely
gifted doctor

and I am very grateful
for this opportunity.

Thank you.

-And Dr. Johnson?
-Mm-hmm?

If you continue
to learn from me,

perhaps you'll be just
as successful one day.

Thank you, doctor.

[She Sighs]

Can I possibly assist you
with your next procedure?

I don't care how minor it is,

it would just be
great to get involved.

Sure.

In fact, I have a major
surgery coming up.

-Major?
-If you're up for the challenge.

Yes, I am. Thank you
very much, Dr. Ross.

It's my pleasure, of course.
Have a good night.

Thank you.

[Dramatic Music]

You know,

we make a good team.

Come here.

A really good team.

Heard the good news!

-How?
-Word travels fast at UpSurge.

Congratulations, cuz.

Thanks.

I figured you
deserved a celebration.

Uh, we were kind of in the
middle of getting set up here.

I'm sorry, didn't
mean to interrupt.

Hey, uh, you want me
to pop this open man?

we, I got some glasses
in the kitchen,

Ange, could you go get some
cups from the kitchen?

No, no, you guys enjoy that.

Just wanted to stop
by and wish you well.

Wow. [He Chuckles]

Seems like this
was just yesterday.

You and Paige were so
happy on this day.

Yeah, we were.

-She looked so beautiful in
her wedding dress.
-Yes.

Prettiest girl in Cyprus.

Levi, didn't Christie's
wedding dress

have a similar cut in design?

Yo Bari, I'ma head out man,

I'm headed to the airport,
going to see Savannah.

Um, bu yeah,

congrats again man,
you deserve this.

Thanks man, and thanks for this.

And tell 'Vannah I say hey.

-Sure.
-Safe travels, Levi.

And hopefully I get
some good press.

[Jabari Chuckles]
Nah, you gotta earn it, man.

Look, I got some big plans
for this station, and

honestly, I can't
wait to get started.

With you going full
speed ahead with WQCL,

are you ready to do that
deal we talked about?

Yeah, yeah I'm
ready, let's do it.

-That's what I like to hear.
-Alright.

-Talk to you soon.
-Alright cuz, be safe!

Hey.

[Man] What's up old head?

Mr. Thompson sends his regards.

Hey.

Thank you for coming back.

You gonna sit down?

Okay uh,

hopefully you've calmed
down a little bit,

so you can hear my
side of the story.
[Tamara Scoffs]

I'm not interested in
hearing more lies.

I didn't lie. I, I just...

withheld some facts.

Do you hear yourself?

When I was at my lowest,

you refused to believe me.

I just don't have
any reason to believe
anything you have to say.

-Okay Tam, listen, I'm
fighting for my life here.-Oh,
save it.

I only came here to
tell you I'm petitioning for
full custody of Austin.

-You can't do that!
-Oh, I can.

And you can't raise
a son in prison.

Tam, just hear me out.

[Door Slams]

[Doorbell Rings]

Leona, you left your door open.

Leona, where the
hell are you goin'?

What do you want, Rex?

I want to know
everything I can about

Ella's new daddy,
that's what I want.

Besides him being crazy?

-We all crazy Leona.
-Look...

what Victor can't control,

he will destroy.

He sound a lot like you.

So what? You having night
caps with him, too?

I thought I was special.

What'd he do?

He abandon your old ass
for a new model, huh?

Ah!

You want to dance
with evil, that is fine!

but you keep him away from Ella!

I got to get out of town before

I cross paths with that bastard.

And don't you even think
about trying to stop me.

No, you gonna tell
me what I need to know.

-My warning is enough, fool!
-It is not enough!

[Tense Music]
Now you know me,

I'm not afraid of evil.

But you not leaving here

until you tell me what I'm
up against, you understand?

-Get out of my way.
-Nah.

No.

I said get out of my way.

-You done lost your damn mind.
-No.

But you about to lose a
limb if you don't move.

Now if you want
to find out information
about Victor Thompson,

get it yourself!

Now move!

[Tense Music]

Crazy bitch.

You crazier than
I thought you were.

So you just gon'
leave, just like that?

And not be here to protect Ella?

I have protected her
her whole life.

I just pray she realizes
it before it's too late.

[Somber Music]

Lord have mercy.

How did Jabari get WQCL?

Eh, it doesn't
matter. I told you,

don't worry about the media.

I have no choice but to
worry about it now that

Jabari owns the biggest
media outlet in Cyprus.

He is going to be

so relentless.

I think, you know, there's just
too much going on right now.

I think I need to take a
step back from everything.

Including you.

Really?

Is that what you want?
[Ella Sighs]

I don't know what I want.

I mean, I don't know
what I believe.

And that's part of the problem.

But I do know that I
want to continue to

govern my city without
all of this drama.

Well I, I think you've outgrown
your role as mayor.

I beg your pardon?

You're above that position.

You have too much to offer.

Well if you thinkin'
about the senate seat,

that is definitely
off the table.

Well I know a better
use of your talents.

I want to see you transition
to the private sector.

The private sector? How?

Come work with me.

As the CEO of UpSurge.

[Dramatic Chord]

[Chuckling]
Now you, you
talkin' crazy now, there's

cameras all around here.
[Both Laughing]

That's cute, but let me
open this up for you.
