Previously on
Bob Hearts Abishola...

What the hell is that?

My resignation letter.

You want to talk about it?

God, no. That's why
I wrote you the letter.

Come in here.

God, can we not make
a big thing out of this?

It is a big thing. You're
quitting the family business.

No, I am exploring "new
and exciting opportunities."

What opportunities?

I don't know yet, but I know
they are new and exciting.

Thanks for doing this dinner.

No problem, sweetie.

I actually have
some pretty big news

- to share.
- Did we not get

the garlic knots?

Oh, it's
- right there.
- Here.

Maybe you should eat one
so we both have bad breath.

Good idea.

So, back to my news...

Oh, speaking
of bad breath,

Douglas, tell 'em
about the gift I got you.

Mom got me a toothbrush.

With a Waterpik built in!

- Do those work?
- Oh, yeah!

It's like a bidet
for your mouth.

So, my thing...

Bob does not floss as
much as I would like.

I have sensitive gums.

That's why flossing's
important, Bob.

I got a job!

- Oh, my God!
- Hey!

- That's incredible!
- Christina, that's wonderful!

Thank you.

That's amazing.
Where are you working?

It's an online company
called Toesey Woesies.

Oh, no.

Are you selling pictures
of your feet again?

No!

I'm the chief
brand manager.

They brought
me on board

to take their footwear
to the next level.

Oh.
- Oh.
- That sounds like

a great opportunity, Christina. Yeah.

Yeah, I-I really feel like
I'm a part of something special.

You know, right now,
it's just eight of us

working out of
the boss's garage.

Garages are cool.
I love my garage.

Plenty of great companies
have started out of garages.

Apple.

Mm-hmm.

Other ones.

There is a lot
of room for growth

- in a company like that
- Yeah.

That is what I said
- in my interview!
- Yes.

It's gonna be fine, honey.

Yeah, I-I know
it's gonna be fine.

I'm not worried.

Neither are we.

Oh,

you know, there is one thing...

I knew it.

You got to show more than feet.

No. Uh, Toesey Woesies

sells socks.

So I'll be working
for a competitor.

In a garage.

I wouldn't worry about that.

We're proud of you.

- Mm-hmm.
- And no matter what people say,

any job that makes a
paycheck is a good gig.

- Yes.
- Well,

actually, they're paying me
in stock options.

That is terrible.

Poor Christina.

- What?
- This Toesey Woesies thing, I mean,

who the hell's gonna pay $20
for a pair of socks?

What's that printed
all over them?

It's either a kid
with a weird head

or a smiling taco.

Why would they put
a disfigured child on a sock?

Okay, it's a taco.

Still not worth
20 bucks.

This company's
gonna go under in a month.

You never know.

People buy many stupid things
on the Internet.

Like a little tiny vacuum
for your car.

Do you want to sit in crumbs?
'Cause I don't.

Maybe I could throw some
MaxDot business Christina's way.

You are a
- good brother.
- Well, I'm not gonna let

my baby sister dive headfirst
into an empty pool.

Mm-hmm.

Wait.

Toesey Woesies
was on Shark Tank.

Mm, not everyone on that show
goes on to be successful.

They grossed $218 million
last year!

Really?

Maybe they could send
some business your way.

Tunde, I'm going out
to run some errands.

Ah. Have a wonderful time.

Are you going to be
okay here by yourself?

Oh, yes.

Because I will be doing
a lot of...

this.

Have fun.

Oh, it will be torture
without you,

but, somehow, I will survive.

Ah-ah.

Ebun.

Where have you been?

Uh, running errands.

I came to see you.

I have been waiting
nearly six hours.

Check your phone next time, dear.

For the love of God.

I'm sorry.

The day must have gotten away
from me.

As did the dusting.

Did you notice your
bedroom ceiling fan was filthy?

No. I have not
inspected it lately.

Well, I did.

But do not worry--

I got right up on your bed
and scrubbed it clean.

I had to hold her legs.

Why don't you answer your phone?

I also ironed all
of Tunde's shirts

and bleached your filthy floors.

My floors were clean.

They were brown.

That was the varnish!

Now that you are home,

I trust that you have
a plan for dinner.

Olu, you did not.

I did.

It is fine!

It is my cheat day.

You have had a cheat lifetime.

Olu, since when do you neglect
your household and your husband?

Never, sister.
I will toss this out

and make a home-cooked meal.

Ah, no.

You do not want this food

stinking up
your freshly scrubbed kitchen.

I will take it to the dumpster
on the street.

I might be a while.

"This bird may be flying,

"but she will never forget
where she was hatched.

Love,
Christina."

What a thoughtful gesture.

Oh, that's a rough-looking kid.

It's a smiling taco.

Oh, the hair's cheese!

That's cute!

What's going on?

Christina sent us socks
from her little Internet job.

I have done some investigating,

and it is
a very successful company.

I know.

They grossed $218 million
last year!

I know!

The box is also

completely biodegradable.

You can eat it.

Don't eat the box.

Christina suggested
the foot-shaped packaging

when she was here.

Are you sure?

When she presented it, you said,

"Honey, are you on something?"

Doesn't sound like me.

Mom, to be fair,

you were always shooting down
her ideas.

Well, so were you.

Every time she opened
her mouth, you'd groan.

This is why I keep
my ideas to myself.

I would love to hear your ideas, Douglas.

I don't have any.

- Get her back.
- We can't do that.

- Why not?
- Well, number one,

she's got her dream job now.

Number two,
we already filled her position.

All right, new guy,
what do you got?

Well, I was thinking, perhaps,

with every sock MaxDot sells,

we donate a pair
to people in need.

I call it "Care Pairs."

Honey, are you on something?

Whoever gave you this
recipe is not your friend.

This is Mummy's recipe.

I do not think so.

Mummy's recipe is not runny.

It is not runny.

Run-ny.

Tunde has barely
even touched it.

Why are you not eating?

Because I ate the
Wendy's on the sidewalk.

Maybe if you had
not been out all day,

you would have had time to
make a decent meal for him.

Thank you for your advice, sister.

Tomorrow, you should make
braised goat with obe ata.

Not even you could ruin that.

That takes two days to make.

Well, we will start tonight.

I'm very tired.

How do you
think I feel?

I have done your work all day.

I did not ask you
to do that.

Someone had to.

Yes, you are the perfect wife.

I am.

That is how I have kept
my husband happy

all of these years.

And yet you are
6,000 miles from him,

with no plans to go back!

Excuse me! I have this thing in
the other room I have to go to.

I cannot believe this is how
you treat a guest in your home.

Guest? I do not remember
inviting you.

I do not need to listen to this.

You are as insulting and
as tasteless as your stew!

Maybe you would have preferred
it be cold and bitter like you!

Is it safe?

It is safe.

Ah.

I have no idea
why we don't do

these mother-daughter
coffee dates more often.

I agree.

Now that we don't work
together anymore,

we can just be gal pals.

Sure.

Oh.

Sorry. It's work.

Hey, is this an emergency?

Then I'm gonna stop you
right there.

I'm having coffee
with my mother,

so please give
the report

to my assistant
and I'll circle back.

Okay, bye!

Sorry, where were we?

Boy, you've come a long way

from the girl who sat
- in the yard eating dirt.
- Mm.

Yeah, I'm on iron pills now.

Whatever you did,
it's working.

Mm. Well, I had a very strong
woman as a role model.

Thank you, honey.

I meant Abishola.

But of course you, too.

Well, I'm very proud of you.

Thank you, Mom.

Anyhoo...

If you could
just sign this.

Well, what is it?

Something to make sure that
business doesn't get in the way

of family.

It's just a silly little
document that states

any ideas you thought of at
MaxDot are property of MaxDot.

I-I don't understand.

It's very standard language.

You hated every one
of my ideas when I worked there.

Honey, just because I hated them
doesn't mean they're not mine.

They're not yours.
They came from my mind.

A mind which came
out of my body.

Come on, you're a big girl now.
This is how business works.

I am not signing that.

You want to go
that route, fine.

A cease and desist order?

You like dirt--
let's play in the mud.

What are you doing?

Just thinking
about how I'm gonna die here.

Well, do it somewhere else.

That's the point, Bob.

There is
nowhere else.

There's just
these four walls,

and they're closing in.

You got to stop drinking
at work.

I'm not drinking.

I'm toasting.

To Christina,
who found a way to escape.

You know, if you're
really not happy here,

you could leave and
pursue something else.

I don't have the balls.

Yeah, me neither.

To Christina.

You know, when Dad died,

I had a choice--

stay in school
or come help here.

- You picked wrong.
- I know I picked wrong.

Could've had
a whole different life.

I would be the voice
of the Toledo Mud Hens,

calling all their
games on AM radio.

That's a minor league team.

I'm a simple man, Douglas.

Hmm.

What about you?

I'm here.

In every timeline, I'm here.

Yeah, sorry, buddy.

Usually when someone gets
a new job,

their family gives 'em
an "attagirl,"

not an injunction.

Man, you rich people
love to sue each other.

Well, I can tell you,
I do not love this.

Your mother is
just trying to scare you.

Why? She should be happy.

Happy that her daughter
no longer needs her?

- Don't be stupid.
- Well,

I'm sure you wouldn't do
something like that

to your children.

I would destroy my son's career

if it meant he would
talk to me again.

She's the wrong person
to ask about family stuff.

I'm proud of you.

Leaving MaxDot
was very brave.

- Now my mom hates me
- Mm-mm.

She doesn't hate you.

What she hates is
that you got away.

And that you are succeeding without her.

And not appreciating all the
hard work that she put into you.

And the sacrifices
that she made.

Like staying in a
loveless marriage

so you could have a
roof over your head.

Yeah, that's not
really my story.

It is all you ungrateful
children's stories.

Wait, so, in a weird way,

she doesn't hate me.

She's jealous of me.

Jealous?

Why would she be jealous of you?

You are successful
because of her!

Stupid, ungrateful children.

I think you're onto something.

Ha! Jealous. Idiot.

E kaasan, sister.

Make your apology and go.

I have to re-mop
these floors.

Bob's cleaning lady
uses organic products.

She may as well do nothing
at all!

I am not here
to apologize.

You insulted me in my own home.

Only after you almost killed
me with that runny soup.

It was stew.

It was soup!

Do you know
why I left Nigeria?

Because Tunde was going
to take another wife.

His family
were forcing him to.

Because I could not produce children.

I said many prayers for you.

And God sent

many blessings.

Tunde and I
are happy here.

Away from the judgment
of others.

We do not judge you.
We pity you.

And I pity you.

Eh-eh! Me?

I have done everything right.

And yet you are still not happy.

I am very happy!

I suppose you are so happy

you do not want this.

What is this?

A movie ticket.

Maybe, instead of
scrubbing floors,

you could have fun
with your sister.

Does this movie have
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson?

I think they all do.

It is the middle of the day.

What will people say?

Ah, we are old.

We do not get judgment.

We get discounts.

Hello?

I have Christina Wheeler
for Bob Wheeler.

Uh, okay.

Please hold.

Hold? You called me.

Hey, Bob.
Thanks for taking my call.

Is Mom with you?

Yeah, we're all about to start
the sales meeting.

Oh, perfect.
Can you put me on speaker?

Christina would like
to talk to everyone,

and, apparently,
she's got an assistant now.

Can everyone hear me?

You sound wonderful.

Did you have a chance
to think about our proposal?

I did.

And I just want to thank you
for suing me.

- We're suing her?
- No.

We're threatening to sue her.

This is why
I can't leave.

I'm not a loser--
I'm a prisoner.

This lawsuit has shown me
that you respect my talents.

Why would you sue her?

Because she loves and misses me, Bob.

All right,
you found out

about my dirty little secret.
Now come back.

Aw, I can't. You know,

seeing the lengths that
you would go to for my ideas

was the validation I needed.

Every subpoena is a tiny hug.

Bobby, she's not afraid
of me anymore.

Do something.

Ch-Christina, I'm
still playing catch-up,

but we do miss you here.

If you come back,
we'll give you a raise.

Uh, how about a raise for
the people that stayed loyal?

Excellent question, Douglas.

And now

you're throwing money at me?

Mm. My heart is full.

Well,

this has been great,
but I got to go.

Fly away,
little bird, fly!

Don't you hang up, Christina.
We're not through talking

about this!
I'm sorry. Ms. Wheeler is no longer available.

Would you like to schedule
another time?

I have Thursday at 3:00 p.m.

That works for me.

There is hardly
anybody here.

That is why I come
during the day.

The theater is mine.

Here, have some popcorn.

I did extra butter.

If we eat it now, there will be
none left when the movie starts.

There are free refills.

- No.
- Yes.

Surely it is to make us thirsty
and purchase more drinks.

There are free refills
on drinks as well.

It is as if we
are stealing from them.

This truly is a
country of fools.

Hold this.

Eh-eh. What are you doing?

Changing your life.

Mmm!

I jumped once
during a scary movie

and invented
this wonderful snack.

Can I tell you a secret?

Of course.

My husband has not
called the entire time

I have been in Detroit.

Do you want to talk
about it?

No.

That is the great thing
about movies--

for a little while,

you can just sit
in the dark and forget.
