[Mellow Music]

Good morning, Naomi.

Bianca.

Oh my God, I missed my flight again.

[Incoherent] My mom's gonna be so mad at me.

So uh, are you gonna try to catch the next flight out?

Are you kicking me out, Omar?

No, no, I'm just, I'm just saying.

Okay good, because I have a killer headache.

I just need a couple more hours to sleep.

Por favor.

Yo, Keith, my guy!

Hey, just hoping you got some good news for me.

Well if you're talking about the Flex-Space, I haven't heard back from Rachel yet.

But look,a short-term lease for your budget...

might be a little difficult.

Maybe we go a little further outside the city?

Um, yeah, I mean that just sounds like the perfect way to make sure

that nobody shows up, you know?

I'm trying, man.

I know, I know.

Aye um, thinking about hitting up the spot tonight, the Dive.

You down?

Uh, yeah I don't know, I don't know, I got uh,

Aye, don't worry about Greg.

They have security.

I'm not worried about Greg being there.

And Greg'll need security, I don't.

Listen, I just got stuff to do around the house.

Yeah, yeah, yeah I get it.

Aye, but listen, I will give the agent another call for you, okay?

We'll make it work.

Thanks Jarvis.

Absolutely. Thanks Jarvis.

Absolutely.

[Instrumental Hip-Hop Music]

Mr. J?

Yep.

You got a minute?

[Jarvis] Of course, I'm about to go to lunch.

Walk with me.

Okay!

Nice shirt, really brings out the color in your eyes.

Thank you very much, is that for me?

Yep! [Jarvis] Okay.

Read it slow.

Why?

Just, take your time.

Whoa, this is your two-week notice?

Well, I was just gonna text you

but my aunt said I should do it formally and write you a letter.

What's the problem?

There's a lot going on in the world.

And I want you to know that I really really appreciate you

for allowing me to work here.

Okay.

I just think it's time for me to join my brothers and sisters on the front line.

You're joining the military?

Military?

I would never! - Oh.

Black Lives Matter.

They need organizers and I think I'd be really good at it.

But I thought your dream was to get into property investments.

Well what properties could I invest in if I get taken out by the police first?

Black women are the most unprotected, disrespected and neglected group in America.

Danni, the chances of you being taken...

Look, I think we all should give back to our communities.

Whether it's in the form of time and if you're fortunate enough, money.

And since I'm broke as a joke, I can only afford to donate my time.

I hate to hear that.

You're the best intern I have.

I'm the only intern you have.

Take the compliment.

[Mellow Music]

[Bianca] I can't die, I haven't even been in a Drake video yet!

You're not gonna die, everything's gonna be alright, alright?

Just make sure you don't forget anything, alright?

I'm gonna call you an Uber.

But what about you?

Uh, I'm gonna stay and make sure everyone get's out okay!

You're just, you're so brave.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, these, these kind of things happen all the time here.

Um, your Uber is a black Altima.

You know they only wait two minutes!

Okay, okay, I'm coming.

Come on, come on, uh, he's pulling up, he's pulling up.

- Okay. - Okay.

Okay.

[Sirens Blaring]

[Jarvis] Where do you have us meeting at, Kev?

[Kevin] It's only the best B-B-Q soul food spot on the Southside.

Alrighty.

Well, so you ordered without me?

No, no, no, this is just an appetizer, J.

Is that right? - Mhm.

- Okay. - But I went ahead and brought a hardcopy of the agreement.

Sorry, I got a little barbecue sauce on there, but it should still hold up.

Yeah, uh, this is fine.

I want to talk about an additional request.

Look, if you weren't happy with the rate, all you had to do was--

No, no, no, no, the rate is fine.

Right, once I make an agreement, I don't, I don't backtrack.

I just think we have a great opportunity to give back.

And what exactly are we giving back?

Money.

Ah, like a tax write-off.

Yeah, I guess so.

Got it, got it, yeah yeah, we do that. [Jarvis] Alright.

So what were you thinking, like the Red Cross, or?

No, no, I was thinking more along the lines of uh, Black Exchange College Fund.

Or uh, UNCF.

Or maybe we help an African American small business owner

with a direct donation.

Yeah, okay, uh, why does it have to be Black?

Shouldn't it be something that benefits everyone, you know?

Something more, inclusive?

The Black community's been underserved when it comes to business loans,

college grants.

I'm sure you know that.

Well yeah, I'll still just have to call my dad about that.

Wait, call your dad?

I thought you were the man, Kev?

I figured you could squeeze that in there somewhere.

You know if there was a college fund for white people it would be a problem.

Why the double standard?

Yes, um, I'll have the country steak with the mac and cheese.

Oh. do you have yams? Aight!

(singing) [Eugene] Blowing softly, softly

against my window.

Make believes you love me.

One more time.

Lay your warm and tender--

Unc!

Come on, man!

Don't walk up on me like that, you know my nerves is bad.

My bad, Aunt Val said\ it was alright to come back here.

Now listen, here's one, two, and three hundred dollars aight?

From that damn poker game, man, you con artist.

And right on time, look.

We can run it back if you want to.

Give you a chance to win some of this back.

Nah, I'm good man, listen, messing with you, you gonna tap into my rent money.

Why don't you just get an apartment?

'Cause at first I thought the separation was temporary,

then she filed.

So I guess I just been holding on to hope that

we'd work things out.

You had to do some, some awful mess to this woman.

[Omar] Nah, man.

Look, before me and Naomi had our son, we were inseparable.

And then come this new baby, taking up all her attention huh?

Ah, that ain't it man, that ain't it.

I mean, she, she just started getting really moody,

didn't want to leave the house, and started complaining about everything.

(stuttering) I don't know.

Sounds like she was dealing with postpartum depression.

Cut her some slack.

Is that fried chicken?

Boy's gotta eat.

I don't get fried chicken when I gotta eat!

Relax, I gotta bake yours.

Keep that cholesterol down.

You don't gotta feed him, this is a grown man!

Look aye, aye Unc, I'm sorry, but Aunt Val this looks bomb, thank you.

You know what, if you weren't my nephew.

[Valerie] You would do nothing.

He's all bark and no bite!

Oh, you know I bite woman.

Oh!

Everybody know I bite!

Thanks, Aunt Val.

[Valerie] Alright honey.

Well Unc, listen, I didn't come over here to bore you with my personal problems.

Nah, you are my nephew.

I know it's hard for us Black men to open up.

Let alone to talk to somebody who really understands,

and don't nobody understand women like I do.

Yeah, aight Unc.

How did you and Aunt Val make it through these years, man?

It's simple. I married my best friend.

Now, you kids these days,

y'all get with somebody 'cause they fine or 'cause they got a lot of followers.

Fine ain't gonna raise your kids right.

I feel like I married my best friend, man.

Now I barely even know her.

She's hardly home.

Work's a top priority.

Seem like a ball, so what's the problem?

I don't know, I guess I'm just used to my mom cooking and cleaning.

It just seems like black women aren't as traditional as they used to be, man.

And it feels like Naomi wants a man she can run over, and that is not me.

Nephew everybody grows.

Most people grow apart.

Lord knows it is damn hard to find a way to grow together, but you got to concentrate

on the simple things you did when you first met.

I don't want to lose her.

So you don't mind losing one of your friends?

What are you talking about?

Well maybe if I said it in Spanglish.

Would that help you understand?

See, I should've knew you slid up into Dive last night.

And me and Booker watched you slither your way out, but don't worry.

What happens in the Dive, stays in the Dive.

Thanks Unc.

Ha, no sweat nephew.

But you gonna cut the grass before you go home.

Cut the grass?

If you got me cutting all this grass, it's gonna cost you way more than that $300

I paid you back.

But it's 250 for that plate.

I'll cash-app you.

* Look at you

* You're just tryna to have a good time, yeah

* Sip something 'til the sunrise

[Doorbell Rings]

Be right there.

* Lights off, we can get it wet

* Ain't the one for the internet

Hey you.

Hey.

Come in.

I've left some food on the stove.

You got my phone?

Oh.

Um, about that.

What about it?

You did bring it, right?

Well, uh, that was the plan.

Until I stopped at the gas station and uh, got robbed.

It was like 30, 40 dudes, 300 pounds.

They just ran up on me.

I was tryna fight them off, and I just...

Stop playing and give me my phone back.

Play too much.

[Greg] I'm serious.

Ari, my car was broken into.

They took everything: my wallet, your phone.

I'm sorry.

Wow.

Yeah, I just wanted to tell you in person.

Typical, Greg.

Whoa, what do you mean by that?

I just know how you are.

No regard for anybody else.

Are we still talking about your phone?

Are we?

Aight, I'm a head out.

Wait, unless you wanted to talk about something else?

I mean we never really talked about what happened.

Sit down.

[Bag Crinkling] Girl!

You missed like, seven questions on this practice test.

You must be trying to fail the boards.

Well you know I can't function without food.

I'm hungry!

And we all out of honey barbecue chips.

Could you ask Greg if he could stop and get us some burgers?

With some french fries and some ranch dressing, and some extra ketchup?

Please?

Someone's off their keto diet.

Yeah, I had to veto the keto.

I text Greg earlier, and he did not hit me back.

Let me try him again.

You sure you don't want any?

No, I'm good, I'm good.

I'm actually tryna cut down on red meat.

- No way! -Yeah, yeah.

We used to tear up some Busy Bee burgers.

Busy Bees, with the uh

- Pickles and thousand island! - Pickles and thousand island, yes!

[Phone Rings] What made you decide that?

I've been introduced to new things.

So, tell me about her.

Uh, who?

The woman who took my place.

I mean, she must be pretty special.

Nobody took your place, Ari.

The seat was empty.

I mean, you weren't happy.

Right?

I'll take that.

We could always just order takeout, 'Rena.

It's no biggie.

No, he's the only thing getting taken out if he don't text me back.

Well, girl, you know how these men are.

That's what I mean when I say

you're single until you're married. - Not now, 'Quisha!

[Greg] We were together for five years.

You know, I got you the exact ring that you always wanted.

I mean a few less karats, but...

You don't have to remind me Greg, it wasn't that long ago.

And you're right I...

I wasn't happy.

But more so with myself.

Guess your work husband changed that right on up.

Right?

James was somebody I felt who could help me accomplish my goals.

You mean help you with tuition and your lease payments.

'Cause I sure as hell couldn't.

- It wasn't just about the money. - Yeah.

Yeah.

Well if it wasn't about the money,

why'd you keep the ring?

It was a gift.

With conditions.

I tried to motivate you.

To be somebody who you wanted me to be.

Look, I got cold feet, okay!

I always looked at marriage like it was a business.

But now, I realize that

it doesn't have to be.

One sec.

Here you go.

You sure you don't want a little piece?

- I'm good. - Come on.

A little bite.

No I'm, I'm good.

Open.

Just taste it.

What do you think?

It's a little spicy.

Excuse me?

Do you think we can make a detour?

* On me, on me

* She be working on me

* I didn't even know she wanted to be more than homies

* Oh

* Maybe I prayed for you

* She said she's been lonely, lonely

* She's been really lonely

Here's your mango daiquiri!

I had to search the back for the umbrella that you wanted.

I found the last one.

Well thank you.

So where are your friends you always come here with?

Um, you know, they're just busy tonight.

It's really good to see the bond that you guys have.

You know, real friends?

They're rare.

Trust me.

Yeah, I'll uh, I'll be sure to forward that message.

I'm not really supposed to be telling you this,

but bartenders, they don't like making these frozen drinks.

But I love them too!

Makes me feel like I'm on a vacation.

Thanks for the umbrella.

* She my only

* One I call the only

* Lord, I love the way she move

* I wanna be her only one that she can call

Right here.

* Type of girl on magazine

* Baddest that I ever seen

* Everything and in between, yeah

* Living on this balance beam

* Feeling like I live a dream

* Darling, won't you pray for me

* I dream about it, I do

* And I can tell that you want it too

* We should loosen up

* And use our love

* 'Cause I

* Can't see myself giving up on our love, baby

Go.

Maybe I should just call his friends.

For what?

Those are his friends, not yours.

You're not gonna get any information out of them.

Nah, they cool.

We all hung out together.

[Serena] Mkay.

[Phone Rings]

Omar, it's uh, Serena!

Hey, Serena.

Which Greg?

Oh, oh, that Greg, okay.

Where he, where he at?

He's driving, right now.

Yeah, yeah, he's working tonight.

He didn't want to drive

So he's with you, right now?

Yeah, he's here!

- Put him on the phone. - Put him on the phone.

He's, he's in the bathroom, right now.

Okay, bye!
