A gun, Marques?

Marques, Kalinda's family has reported her missing

in Los Angeles. Do you have any comment?

This clearly was an invasion of privacy.

It takes a lot of guts to bring down

Jebediah Hawthorne.

Many would be too afraid of the repercussions.

What repercussions?

-Susie's dead! -Keep your voice down.

Who you calling a ho?

[overlapping arguing]

ERIC: There's no contacts.

There's no call history.

It's like she deletes every time she makes a call.

-What is this? -It's just a little offer we got on the winery.

Well, it's just another company using their name. It's like

-a shell company. -They're pushing me out.

-[crying]: Help me, please! -Please, please.

-I am not going to hurt you. -Get out!

I will make sure you are safe.

Hmm. Don't I know you from somewhere?

-I definitely don't need you to help me. -That's funny coming from you,

-pool boy, laundryman... -Man, get out of here, man.

I'm-a get mine, Kareem.

-I ain't never gonna stop. -VANESSA: The cops got

the interview that Nia did with Laila,

which means I don't have an alibi.

Subpoena time. Vanessa King's DNA.

We're looking for Vanessa. Is she here?

Nope.

WOMAN: Hey, Sarge!

LOOMIS: So, Vanessa King was a no-show.

Looks like you got yourself a good old-fashioned manhunt.

I didn't want a manhunt; I wanted a suspect.

Well, you schedule these things, they don't always happen.

Well, the woman's got a family.

I was trying to do her a courtesy.

These people don't do anyone any favors.

They're used to being catered to.

Have all the resources in the world.

If I were Vanessa King, I'd be on a plane to Bora-Bora.

Yeah.

Abrams.

Yeah, it's Loomis. What do you got for me?

I was about to ask you the same thing.

No news. Still trying to bring in our prime suspect.

Well, good luck with that.

I'm gonna need a little more than luck,

if you know what I mean.

I don't follow.

These guys have unlimited resources.

She could be anywhere.

I'll keep an eye out.

Yeah, I appreciate it.

If you can get eyes on Vanessa King,

could be a promotion in it for you.

Brothers and sisters, I stand before you today a changed man.

A man who, by God's grace and mercy, found...

-redemption. -Amen.

A man who fell down, but praise be to God, got up.

Get on up! [whoops]

A man who has made mistakes, who lost his way.

But I serve a mighty God who has promised

never to leave nor forsake me.

No, no, he's not going anywhere.

-Hmm. Interesting. -[knock on door]

JEBEDIAH: You know, they have drugged...

Ain't going nowhere?

[scoffs] We'll see about that.

They've frozen assets.

They've invaded my kids' privacy.

Hey, come on. Hurry up, hurry up.

JEBEDIAH: And through it all...

I am still here!

Anybody followed you here?

-No. -Are you sure?

I don't think so. I-I just rushed over here

as soon as you said we couldn't talk on the phone.

Shh!

Where's Vanessa?

[whispering]: Shh! Give me your phone.

Give me your phone.

I just want to know where Vanessa...

Shh!

I just...

Shh!

You know how you know basketball?

All right. I know cyber security, okay?

You ever just be talking about something random,

and it pops up on your phone?

You think it's because you're special. It's not.

It's because they're watching and they are listening.

Who's they?

Theyis everybody.

They're all out here listening and watching.

Okay? I've created a safe space for us to talk.

Follow me. Watch your head.

...in the sweet blood of Jesus!

[whoops]

[speaking in tongues]

I'm just... I'm just gonna turn myself in.

You did it?

No, I didn't kill anybody, Eric.

-Oh. -I-I...

I just hate to see Vanessa go down for this.

She's not. I know my Nia, okay?

She's an amazing investigative reporter.

She's gonna get to the bottom of it.

I just want to see my wife, man.

Trust me, Marques, she's in a safe place.

And where is that?

The last place anyone would look.

What did he say?

Deja's fine. Don't worry.

This is only for a little while, okay?

[phone ringing]

What?

Wait, it's Roxanne's phone.

[phone continues ringing]

That looks like Jackie Herman's number.

Wait, why would she be calling Roxanne?

You know they were both at that art gallery.

I thought it was just a coincidence.

Uh-uh. First time's a coincidence.

Second time, something's up.

-Right. -Let's find out.

"Hey, girl," uh,

-"can't talk." -No,

Roxanne would never say, "Hey, girl."

Damn it, Nia!

Shit.

Yo! Where Brenda at?

She with Deja for right now. Man, keep your voice down.

Man, it's like Fort Knox in this bitch. Shit.

-You all right? -Yeah, man, give me your phone. Give me your phone.

-My phone, why? -Give me your phone.

-For what? -Give me... Dang, man.

You don't think.

-What you doing with my phone, Marques? -Man.

What, are you putting it in a bag?

Yes.

-In the freezer?! -Man, shh!

-What... -Man, they listening.

Who listening?

Everybody.

Man, is Vanessa okay?

I can't talk about her right now, man.

You-you said you wanted something, so what's up?

Look, man, um, you know... I love you.

All right, you-you always been there for me,

and I will always have your back.

But, uh...

I-I think it's best that I move on.

[sighs] Bruh,

Kareem, man, ju...

You try and break out right now? At this time, man.

I got you, man. I still got you.

Look, man, I know that.

And I appreciate you for that.

Bruh, man, you...

[exhales]

You know what, man, I...

I understand.

I know it's been hard for you.

We had a lot of good times.

Yeah, man, but this shit ain't easy.

Everyone thinks they want this lifestyle, and look.

I'm gonna ask you a question, Marques.

Look around.

Would you change positions with me?

I didn't think so.

I still love you, though, man.

I love you, too, man.

You always been there for me, dawg.

-Yeah, man. -Appreciate everything.

Appreciate you, bruh.

[Kareem exhales]

And, um, just so you know,

you don't have to send me nothing or...

Hey, nah, listen, listen, man, look.

I'm hitting up Ian today.

Soon as I text him, he gonna cut you a check, bruh.

It's gonna be right in your account.

Don't even worry about it, I got you.

You think it's cool if I get my phone

and call Quanisha real fast?

Quanisha. Yeah, man. Hit her up, man.

[doorbell rings]

Oh, look what you did.

You opened it. You opened it.

You opened...

-Hey, good to see you, man. -Marques.

JACKIE: Hi.

Are you ready to spend some time with Auntie Jackie?

Look, you have a little playmate today.

Oh, man. Thank you so much for doing this, man.

-Oh, you already know. -Thank you. Thank you.

-Take this for me. -Jackie,

-let's show her your game. -[Marques sighs]

You good, man?

-Man, I... -JACKIE: What are you gonna do, Deja?

You need anything else, I mean anything,

I got you.

-All right? -JACKIE: Let her see.

-You already know. -Look at that.

-MARQUES: Bye, Deja. -Can you share? Here you go.

-Mine. -Uh-oh.

-Let's share, guys. -All right, man.

I'll hit you up.

[phone buzzing]

Loomis.

Abrams, just checking in.

-Still nothing? -No.

Ears to the ground, though.

I'll keep you posted.

Tuna, light mayo.

Anything?

-Yeah, I got a hunch. -What's that?

-Terrence Abrams. -Beat cop trying to bump up.

-Yeah, he's got a connection with the Kings. -[chuckles]

I knew you had a man on the inside.

Not so sure. I've been trailing him,

and he's been at the same location

for more than two hours.

What location?

Boyle Heights. Near Laila James' building.

I figure it's nothing, since she had an affair with Marques.

I mean, why would Vanessa King be there?

Yeah. That's the last place she'd be.

Right?

-ERIC: So I'm there with with Nia. -Mm-hmm.

JEBEDIAH: All actions have consequences.

-ERIC: And guess who shows up. -JEBEDIAH: And accountability.

-Terrence. -Mm-hmm. -But I've been wronged, church,

and I know who wronged me.

And I vow,

on this day, in this place,

-praise God... -I can't stand this dude, man.

...that I will seek out these perpetrators,

and the wrath of God will be placed upon them.

You know who you are.

ERIC: Hello?

God knows who you are.

ERIC: MJ?

-I know... -Hello?

...who you are.

Oh, my God, are you watching this?

-Are you listening to me? -I think you should be watching this.

I'm about to lose my girl, MJ. I don't got time to be watching

-no hustling preacher. -Okay, first off,

lose the attitude. Now think back

to when you two first met and be that guy.

Look, I've always been Team Eric.

I appreciate that, MJ.

But you got to turn that frown upside down.

-Don't nobody want a sad sack. -Look,

I've been keeping tabs on this dude.

He's into a whole lot of things that neither of you even know.

[chuckles] You little cyber stalker.

Who else you got on your black box?

Nobody, MJ. Okay, that's not the point.

Listen, I designed an app, okay,

that keeps track of Terrence's locations

-in relations to Nia. -[laughs]

Well, they do say there's an app

-for everything. -Hold on, let me put you

on speakerphone.

-Oh, shit! -What?

Terrence is at Laila's apartment right now!

Oh, shit!

Like I said, "Oh, shit." Let me call you back.

[phone buzzing]

Hey, baby.

-ERIC: Get out. -What?

Get out of the apartment right now, Nia.

-Hold on, I got another call. -Ain't no "hold on." Hello?

-Hello? -TERRENCE: You need to get your girls

out of that apartment.

How do you know where I am?

I'm just trying to look out for you. I'm tracking the cops

-and they're closing in. -Hold on, hold on.

-Eric. -ERIC: Get out!

Terrence is at the house right now. I think

-he tipped off the cops to where y'all are. -Okay, wait.

Terrence just told me we have to get out of here.

-That's what I was calling to tell you. -Hold on.

How much time do we have?

[sirens wailing]

None.

Terrence just said we have to get out of here.

H-Hello?

-Come on, let's move. -Let's go, let's go.

Need to check the rear exit... south.

-All clear. -[indistinct radio transmission]

MAN: Ford, check the back side over there.

WOMAN: Got it.

Damn it.

[phone ringing]

Trillin.

Yeah. No, he's here.

There's been an arrest in the Kalinda Walters case.

-We got Vanessa King? -No.

Her husband Marques King.

Just turned himself in.

BOOKING OFFICER: Look straight ahead.

I want to congratulate you all on a job well done.

This case came here three months ago,

and I knew we had the talent and resources

to wrap it up right here in this building.

Detective Loomis.

Good work.

Very good work.

-Trillin. -Thanks, man.

Yeah, not bad at all, gentlemen, not bad.

-Sure. -Thank you.

So you just don't have a happy face.

I don't think it was him.

What? He got the girl pregnant,

paid for her to take care of it, and she didn't.

It wasn't a crime of passion. This was rage.

He did not do this.

Vanessa?

[quietly]: Hey.

Hey.

-You all right? -I'm fine.

I'll be okay, though.

[sighs]

There's everything you need in case you have to...

Oh, let's hope I don't.

And I brought you some food.

Thank you, 'cause if I eat another breadstick,

-I'm gonna throw up. -[chuckles]

I can imagine.

Well, I guess I can't, but...

[sighs] I appreciate you.

I got you this.

Thanks.

Look, Bryce.

I love my husband.

I know.

And he turned himself in for me.

I understand.

All right? But I'm here for you.

Whatever you need.

Okay.

So, this is where we stand.

Vanessa had means and motive.

Plus she looks guilty as hell.

Who hides in a winery if they're innocent?

Black people, when the police decide who's guilty.

You literally can't help yourself.

I halfway respect it.

Anyway, Marques King.

To your point, what black man goes to a cop

even if they're innocent?

Touché. Then there's Kareem.

You said someone was tipping off the press about the Kings.

It could be him.

And then Vanessa was wondering about Jackie.

If Jackie called Roxanne,

maybe Kalinda was messing with Dante,

-Jackie's husband. -Dante is gay.

How you know?

'Cause I know.

Really?

[both speaking German]

Ah.

-I've been trying to reach you. -I'm sorry.

I lost my phone.

Mm, really? Did you?

Uh, actually, somebody stole it.

Well, at least we're being honest.

But we are back up and running.

-Great. -So, I have some bookings I need you to approve.

-Okay. Let's do it. -Okay.

[exhales] All right.

-What do we have? -Okay.

[sighs]

Fine, okay.

Fine.

Did she have Botox done?

-No. -Tell her she needs to.

Will do.

This one's for Dante.

Fine.

-Is that all? -Yes.

-Okay. -Hey, but...

I can schedule someone for you.

[chuckles] No, thank you.

There is plenty of interest.

Of course there is.

That's all.

Anya will see you out.

[sighs]

NIA: MJ here says

that you beat everyone to the stories.

-I've had a good run. -Mm.

Well, we are expanding, and we would love a staff photographer

that can also do on-camera spots.

MJ: And who doesn't want to be on camera?

-I wanted the gig, but they told me no. -[clears throat]

We just need to know what type of stories

that you could bring to the table.

Whatever comes.

Who might it be coming from?

[laughs] I can't reveal my sources.

[laughs]: Oh, yeah, of course.

I totally respect and understand.

KRIS: Nia, I need you to-- oh.

-Is this the guy? -Kris Kensington.

You know my name. That is a very good start.

NIA: We are still evaluating candidates

for the on-camera.

Mm, verifying sources.

I have a ton of sources.

I have a connect with the Kardashians,

the Carters-- Beyoncé and Jay-Z.

Some ballers. Jackie Herman--

Dante Herman of the Vipers-- his wife.

That is interesting. That helps.

-We'll be in touch. -Okay.

Great.

-Thank you. -Mm-hmm.

MJ: Hey.

Keep doing what you do.

Good job. [clicks tongue]

Okay, look, Jackie Herman may not be a killer,

but she definitely a damn snitch.

Okay.

[both laugh]

I'm sorry we weren't more transparent

with our divestment offer.

We just didn't want to offend Vanessa.

Well, that's all right,

Vanessa knows she's got a lot going on right now.

She just wanted to sign over her shares

of the winery to you directly.

-No need for a shell company. -Okay.

Sign here, please.

I'll do whatever I can

to help her, of course.

And this one needs to be signed by you.

-Okay. -For legal purposes.

And are you two friends?

You and Vanessa?

Well, I am her legal counsel.

You went to law school together, right?

I looked you up. [chuckles]

And I heard she had you over for a...

private tasting. [chuckles]

[Jackie sighs]

I wish me and my legal counsel were that close.

Is there anything else I can do for you?

Uh, I think this is all I need, Ms. Herman, thank you.

Okay.

Hmm.

MJ: Keep this under your little police hat.

I don't want to see Nia get into any trouble.

Because if she goes down, I go down.

Understood.

-Thank you. -You did the right thing.

Ooh.

Well, hi, Ginger.

Oh, my God.

Hi. Uh...

I was wondering where you were.

-Yeah, you and half of Los Angeles. -Well, it's national news.

I mean, they said you were in Palm Springs

and then they said you were in Phoenix and then

somebody saw you on a flight to Cabo, and I was like,

"I hope it's Palm Springs 'cause they have..." -Yeah.

Ginger, what else do you know about Jackie?

I don't know any more than you do, really.

She's a very private

and controlling person.

-And-- but mostly private. -Weren't you both

at that event with Roxanne together?

Um, who?

Don't play dumb with me.

No, I'm not.

It wasn't a coincidence, was it?

Um...

Ginger!

Okay, listen.

Jackie is funding Roxanne's company, okay?

She knows guys are gonna cheat,

and she just wants to control who they're with. Oh, my God.

Why are you still friends with her?

Why are youfriends with her? She makes us need her.

That whole Laila thing, that was Jackie?

Yeah, that's how she controls the wives.

She's running other women, too.

Oh, my God, Ginger, stop talking.

Well, why would she be running other women

when I heard Dante is gay?

You're not supposed to know that.

[sighs] Okay, she started the company because...

she wanted to keep Dante from trolling, but then

she just started booking people for everyone.

Oh, my God, I'm so dead.

[ringtone playing]

Hello.

LAWYER: Did you submit a DNA sample?

No.

Well, they got one, and it's a match.

Okay.

I don't know how much I can do for you now.

Don't worry. I got me.

Wait, where are you going?

To go get my child. Are you gonna drive me?

Yeah.

[grunts]

Goddamn it, Kareem.

Man.

Shit.

'Reem, you don't have to do this.

I have to. It's the only way we can really move on.

Baby, you finally get Marques to give you some real money

and you want to give it all to Jamal?

Baby, with 250 large, we could start a whole new life together.

-We could do so much. -Quanisha, stop.

We can't do nothing as long as Jamal is in my life.

Let's go!

[footsteps approaching]

Quanisha... I ain't know you was here.

How you doing?

QUANISHA: Hey.

You get the four-piece with the thigh, not the breast?

Yeah.

Habanero hot... Buffalo barbecue sauce?

-Yes. -Empty container so I can

-mix the sauces? -Man, will you just count the damn money,

-please? -Kareem...

-the money is short. -It's 250.

-250? -Yeah.

Where's the other $50,000?

You shitting me right now?

Boy, I swear to God, you ain't worth shit.

You finally get some sense in your dumb-ass head

to get punk-ass Marques King to pay up and you come up short!

Look, man, I just gave you what the man gave me!

[stammers angrily]

-[pained groan] -What the...?

-[coughs] I can't, I can't breathe. -Let me call the...

-Let me call the ambulance. Come here. -[gasping for air]

[wheezing]: I can't breathe.

KAREEM: Oh, my God.

Come on, please answer the phone. Hello?

-What are you doing? -Let's go.

-I can't just leave the man here. -'Reem, baby.

He's done. He can't hurt you anymore.

Baby, this is our chance, let's go.

-[chokes] -Come on, 'Reem, let's go.

Let's go.

'Reem. 'Reem.

Baby, let's go. Please come on.

Baby, let's go. Here, we got the money.

-Let's go, baby. -Okay.

-Come on, come on. -All right.

QUANISHA: Let's go.

Come on, come on.

VANESSA: Where's my child?

Don't act like you don't understand English.

Where's my child? Deja-- Don't touch me.

Deja!

Deja? Jackie?

[Anya grunts]

Let go of me.

Grab me again, I'll kill your ass.

-Vanessa? -Jackie.

Do you have my daughter dressed like you?

You can take the girl out of Oakland, huh?

The cops are on their way.

I don't give a damn who's on the way.

-Give me my baby! -I mean, do you think that's such a good idea?

You're a little bit unhinged, honey.

Bitch, you want to see unhinged, lay a finger on my child.

Okay, is that a threat?

-[sirens wailing] -Yes, it's a threat.

You've been tipping off paparazzi,

trying to set me up.

Information is currency, Vanessa.

I never lied on you.

I've only told the truth.

The truth is, you did it.

C.O.: Mrs. King.

-I'm not... -C.O.: We know you're in there.

-There's no way out alive. -I have an idea.

Why don't you just make a plea deal?

Maybe you'll get a good judge.

I actually know one.

I have a better idea. Put my baby down.

-Oh... Oh, my God. -Or I'll shoot you.

OFFICER: That's it, let's move.

VANESSA: Okay. Look at Mommy.

OFFICER: They're here.

JACKIE: I'm just trying to protect her.

OFFICER: You check upstairs.

Your husband brought her to me for protection.

Bitch, I will kill you.

Okay, now who's the violent one?

Vanessa, why don't you just tell

-everybody what you did. -OFFICER: Put the gun down!

I'm not going down for you trying to cover up

-for your husband. -OFFICER: Put it down now!

I did it for you.

What did you do for me, Jackie?

Can you guys come on and arrest her already?

She has a gun.

OFFICER: Drop the gun!

I know what you did, Jackie.

LOOMIS: Put the gun down, Mrs. King.

We have her DNA. It's over.

Just tell everybody the truth.

You want to know the truth?

My husband is gay.

There, I said it.

Now everybody knows.

He's gay. Okay?

-But I love him. -Stop it, Jackie.

-What are you...? -Enough's enough.

-What are you doing? -Let her go.

-Get your hands off me. -Let her go.

-You helped me cover it up. -VANESSA: Cover up what, Jackie?

-Get-- get off of me! -It's okay.

-It's okay, Deja. -What? -Take her.

-[Deja crying] -I did it to protect your big gay ass.

I would offer you a drink, but I hear you're with child.

I know about all of the girls.

So I guess that a congratulations is in order.

You really hit the jackpot, didn't you?

It was an accident.

And you were paid good money to take care of that accident.

I'm keeping this child.

You're keeping the child?

Well, you're not gonna get Marques King.

Jacqueline Herman, wife of L.A. Vipers player Dante Herman,

pleaded not guilty to two counts of manslaughter

in the death of former Golden Nuggets dancer

Kalinda Walters and her unborn child.

Vipers player Marques King and his wife Vanessa,

who were formerly persons of interest in the case,

have been cleared of any connection to the crime.

According to Vipers spokeswoman Desiree Deavers,

King remains on the active roster.

However, Dante Herman's status on the team is now unclear.

The DNA was a match, which is a good thing.

I'm glad you see it that way.

Well, unfortunately, there's other people involved.

And they don't appreciate you passing off

another suspect's evidence as Vanessa King's.

-I understand that. -Yeah.

Do you understand what chain of custody means?

[quietly]: Yeah, of course.

Means you could've cost us a conviction.

I get it.

I failed and I'm probably not ready to be a detective.

I'm not saying you didn't help us out.

It just seems like the Kings were always a step ahead of us.

I don't know the Kings. I've never spoken to them.

Yeah, but, you doknow Nia Bullock.

She's just a friend.

Yeah, I'm gonna have to write this up, Officer Abrams.

[exhales]

Nia, this is great.

Thank you so much.

Thanks, girl, I'll see you tomorrow.

KRIS: Nia.

Good night, and once again, congratulations.

-I'm so proud of you. -Thank you.

Hey... MJ, can you do me a favor?

You want me to clean this mess up.

-Would you? -I got you, boss.

-Thank you. -Yeah, you can leave that.

[Nia chuckles]

I am so sorry you got suspended.

Nah, that's all my fault.

I lied to you, Nia.

I don't just want to be friends with you.

I love you.

And I want you to be with me.

Mm...

Eric is moving to L.A.

We're gonna try to make it work.

Yeah, that's, uh, that's good for the both of you.

So... what are you gonna do now?

I don't know.

Probably take some time off.

Do some private security in the meantime.

Private security?

That... that's dangerous.

You're expected to take a bullet for someone.

I mean, that's why you dumped me in the first place, right?

Dangers of the job.

Especially in New York.

I got to, I got to go.

Eric is downstairs, so...

I get it.

You know, when you said you were gonna turn yourself in for me,

I just thought you were just talking.

Stop. I'd do anything for you.

-Well, I know now. -Mm.

And now that I did some time, you know,

I got some respect in these streets.

Oh, my God, what did you do, 30 minutes?

Uh, over two hours, homey, don't play with me.

-[laughs] Come here... -Oh, yeah...

Mmm. [sighs]

What, you gonna make me drink this champagne by myself?

Ah... let's do it like we did it on our wedding night.

-[quietly]: I can't, Marques. -Why not?

W...

Wait, are you...?

-Mm. -Are you for real?

-Mm. -Are you serious right now, babe?

Mm-hmm.

[exhales] Okay.

[clears throat] Yeah. Okay.

You know what?

I think... I think a second baby

is exactly what we need.

Yeah. Me, too.

Yeah?

-I'm excited. [chuckles] -[laughs]

I love you.

I love you, too.

-Yeah? -Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Mmm...

-Hope it's a boy. -[scoffs]

[laughs] Please give me a boy!

Maybe two boys-- you got twins in there?

-Oh, my God. -Whoo! I'll drink to that.

-[chuckles] -By myself.

Now that you are safe, tomorrow I will go.

Thank you so much for looking out for me.

It's the least I can do after what happened to your friend.

You know, it's kind of weird having a guy around

for this long without him hitting on me.

It's kind of nice having a male friend.

Actually, I find you most attractive. And smart.

Thank you.

I find you most attractive and smart as well.

And I must admit, not to hit on you,

but if the opportunity arose for me to keep your company,

I would be most interested.

I'd be most interested, too.

May I take you to dinner tomorrow?

Tomorrow?

-Yes. -♪ This is my confession♪

Tomorrow sounds nice.

♪ Reflecting on my youth♪

♪ I handle my depression♪

♪ Living someone else's truth♪

♪ At the bottom...♪

JEBEDIAH [on TV]: God sees everything.

[both laughing and muttering]

I said God sees everything.

ERIC: Get on top.

-[whoops] -Go on ahead...

You can run but you can't hide from God.

You can go from speaking God's biblical truth...

NIA: Ooh!

...to spreading gossip and lies.

-ERIC: That's how you like it? -[laughing]: Oh, yeah.

[Eric laughs]

You can run from Brooklyn to Los Angeles.

God will find you.

[muttering]

-You can run fromHype Rag magazine... -What?

toDeep Dive Daily... and I will find you.
