MARY JANE: Previously,
on "Being Mary Jane"...

The client that owns this place,

she's really taken me under her wing.

I'm not trying to mess that up.

You got people looking out for you.

I like it. That's important.

What do you think about
us getting our own place?

And how are we gonna pay for it?

You got a job you haven't told me about?

You've got that
settlement check comin' in.

I told you I was
gonna put that in a trust

for Treyvion and for
your daughter, Isabelle.

Your mom wanted me to
make sure you got in okay.

- How's everything?
- I'm not Ava. I'm Kristie.

- This is Ava.
- Oh...

- AVA: Hey, Paul.
- Hi.

Mom didn't tell me my new
babysitter would be so cute.

How much is this one?

Um, after taxes, fully loaded...

$45,000.

DANTE: [zooming]

I'll take it.

Hey.

MAN: Girl, you came to play.

SECURITY GUARD: The VIP.

Oh, my God, Niecy, this
the VIP and everything.

Look at all of this.

Now this gon' cost a grill.

What's the occasion?

Well, seeing that
we're all single mothers

doin' it for our kids, strugglin',

I figured we needed a night out.

You guys saw me do a tough year,

you know, so, tonight is my treat, okay?

- WOMEN: [laughing]
- Okay?

All right? Now raise your glasses.

- We're fly!
- [glasses clinking]

WOMEN: [hooting]

Niecy, girl, don't look now,

but there are some fine
Boris Kodjoe-lookin' men

eyeing you up and down, girl.

Ooh, the one talkin'
to Morris Chestnut's twin.

- Unh, cute.
- Not interested.

- What?
- Girl, are you crazy?

Do you have a fever?

No, I'm just focused
on Dante right now.

Look, he's been making a real effort.

He's been there for
the kids, both of them.

I think he's really starting
to fall in love with them

now that they're older.

You're serious.

- Like Dante?
- Yes, Dante.

We're even looking at houses.

Niecy, I don't mean
to burst your bubble,

- But, my girl, you're a fool.
- Kiki! You know...

NIECY: No, that's all right,

'cause ain't nobody say nothing to you

when you were chasin' behind
Dietrick's no-good ass.

I'm just saying...

everything Dante put you through.

Okay, don't forget,
just 'cause he's acting

brand new all of a sudden.

Well, you act like people
don't grow and mature.

You know, Dante really wants
a family, and I do, too.

I mean, Niecy, if
that's what you want,

then that's what we want.

Better be. I'm payin'
for these bottles.

Ooh, now here we go. Some
hookah for my homegirls.

[laughs] How can you eat a rack

of baby backs and still be this grumpy?

'Cause we're missing
Dad's Super Bowl rib fest.

You realize we were too busy
for his ribs last year, right?

I know, but when it's right there,

we took it for granted.

Okay.

So? What do you think?

These are good.

Not as good as Dad's, though.

- That's what I'm sayin'.
- I know.

I mean, how, in a city
of eight million people,

can not one person make good ribs?

- [sucking fingers] Mm hm.

You're being way too
dramatic right now, okay?

What's goin' on?

Winter.

It's drying out my weave,

and getting up at
3:00 a.m. every morning

to swim with the sharks
at "Great Day USA"

is positively exhausting.

It's weird, I mean, Lee,
he's on tour in the Midwest,

and I'm... really lonely.

You just said there are eight
million people in New York City.

How are you feelin' lonely?

I don't know. I just am.

Well, here's an idea.

Why don't you take your butt home?

Go home for a week.

I can't. I'm the "on
call" correspondent,

so, I've gotta stay close to the studio

in case of any breaking
news or whatever.

Don't you ever miss Atlanta?

Why would I wanna
go back to the place

where I was twirling
signs and sellin' weed?

- Hm...
- Right.

I'm straight-up pimpin'
out here in New York...

And so are you.

You'd better relax.
Enjoy this. Seriously.

Yes, I know. I know.

I heard of this really
good spot in New Jersey.

Let's give it a go.

I think I have a better idea.

[siren wailing]

Letta, this is a thousand-
dollar-a-night hotel.

Where do you plan on
puttin' this smoker?

Right outside on the terrace.

Put this down for a second, okay?

- [groans]
- What?

No. [laughs]

Look, why don't we take this
back to my real estate office.

We've got a really dope
patio on the rooftop.

And rock the boat
with your mentor, Olivia?

You don't have to worry about that.

So, everything's
good between you guys?

It's cool, yes, she's
helped me out tremendously,

all right, which reminds me,

I have a favor to ask.

Olivia's daughter is graduating
from journalism school

and she really wants an internship.

"Great Day USA" 's program
is one of the most coveted

in all of morning news.

There's like a thousand
applicants for 15 slots.

I know, but can you at
least get her an interview?

This reeks of nepotism.

Yeah, but Olivia's gone
above and beyond for me.

I mean, is it too much to ask

for my big sister to do the same?

No, it's not.

I will put in the request. No promises.

That's all I ask.

Now help me get
this outside. Come on.

This is the life. You hear me?

- Yes, girl.
- Hell, yeah.

Yeah. I mean, gettin' turned down

by that cop wasn't fun,

but this sure makes up for it.

[laughing]

Hey, girl! Ooh, I like your weave.

Y'all look like y'all havin' fun.

Y'all mind if we join you?

I'm sorry, this is
a private celebration.

Oh, you think you all that

'cause you got a few
dollars to throw around?

Excuse me?

I recognize you.

You that girl that got
tased by the police.

We all seen you.

You got two kids by two baby daddies.

Ain't that right?

Hey, babe, you can flash
all the cash you want.

You still ain't nothin' but a ho.

Hold up.

First of all, I didn't
start this conversation.

- You came over here thirsty...
- Hah!

...trying to sit in my VIP, okay?

So, get outta my face

and let me and my friends
enjoy our booth. Bye!

You a ghetto ass ho.

Yeah, it takes one
to know one, bitch.

What, you comin' at me!

I'ma beat your ass!

You bald headed ass ho!

So, you almost got killed!

You got no regard for your life, bitch!

- Ho! Ho ass!
- CROWD: [shouting comments]

I'm fine.

Get... off of me.

Why am I getting kicked
out? She started it.

Ratchet-ass bitch!

I'm gon' beat your ass Ho, go home to your kids!

You a ratchet and you a hater!

I come from money, ho!

- Just look at you, ho!
- CROWD: [booing]

[shouting mixed comments]

_

_

_

-
We gon' mention by the hundreds - _

_

_

Mama!

What is it, baby?

I can't find my red vroom vroom.

Did you leave it at Dante's?

I've gotta go get it.

[sighing] Dante is at work, babe.

- Why? I want it now.
- What did I just say?

Didn't I tell you that he is at work?

I promise we will go get it later.

No, no, mama, right now.

_

Nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-
nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-

no, mama, right now.

_

Come on.

HELEN: D'Asia, our
family's been a member of

this wonderful organization for years.

Me, my mother, and Mary
Jane were all members.

So, you know what that means.

That means I'm
gonna be a member, too?

That's right.

You're gonna be the fourth generation

in the Patterson family
to carry on the tradition.

You're gonna learn our culture,

and you're gonna grow up to be

a proud Black woman
that you're meant to be.

That sounds cool.

It is cool.

Now you see those girls over there?

Go mingle with them.

- Oh, hi, I'm D'Asia.
- We know.

You're Niecy Patterson's sister, right?

I didn't expect to see
you here today, Helen.

And hello to you, too, Joan.

Why would I not show
up for D'Asia's mixer?

Well, I thought you'd be tending

to your granddaughter, Niecy.

And why would I be
tending to my granddaughter?

- You haven't heard.
- Heard what?

Esme, will you please come here.

Please show Mrs. Patterson
what you showed me.

[on video] You a ghetto ass ho.

[on video] Yeah, it
takes one to know one.

- Bitch!
- Ho! Get off me!

I'ma beat your ass!

- Remember that, bitch!
- CROWD: [shouting]

[siren wailing]

MARY JANE: [chuckling]

For the record, I
think this is a bad idea.

I mean, what if we burn the hotel down?

- It's a smoker.
- There's smoke, PJ, not fire.

Put that away. We've
gotta make the sauce.

Well, just in case, I
would love to document this.

Oh, for sure.

- Hey. Wait. Wait. Hold up.
- What?

Niecy's Twitter page.

Did you see this?

Whythebitchgottased.

Uh, Niecy...

What's wrong, Grandma?

Were you in a fight last night?

[sighing] Yes.

I was in a fight last night.

Who even told you that?

The ladies from "Jack & Jane."

Listen, Grandma, I
can explain everything.

I will not tolerate
this kind of behavior

while you're living under my roof.

Baby girl, your behavior
has consequences...

for the entire family.

Those bougie ladies had
their hackles out for me

and you're embarrassed?

For the past year,
your father, grandfather,

and I have endured whispers and comments

from the entire community.

Okay, and so have I.

You act like I asked
to get tased, Grandma.

Truth be told, Niecy,
I had hoped, and prayed,

that this would be a
wake-up call for you,

and that you would start
acting more maturely.

Sadly, you have proved it not to be so.

Oh...

_

Yeah, I texted you like ten times.

DANTE: My boss says I've
gotta keep my phone off.

I just got your text.

You need to chill, girl.

You wanna come to my
work and ask for yourself?

No, I wanted to tell you
what happened last night.

- What do you mean?
- [sighing]

Man, I got into a fight with some girl,

and my grandmother found out

and freaked out on me.

I'm sorry about that, Niecy, but

I can't deal right now.

I mean, so, when will we hang out?

Isabelle's asking for
you and so is Treyvion.

Soon, but I really
need to get some sleep.

I'll call you later.

[starts engine]

Are you Niecy Patterson?

Yeah. Who are you?

What the hell is this?

Niecy Patterson, you've been served.

It says that I have to appear in court

for violating my settlement agreement.

Does this have something
to do with the fight?

- Oh, Niecy...
- [sighing]

NIECY: Look, this girl,
she came up to me in the club.

She said I was trash and
that I was flaunting my money.

We exchanged words, then
she took a swipe at me.

I mean, what was I supposed to do?

I had to defend myself.

Wait, wait.

How did Fulton County
find out about this?

Were you arrested?

No.

I guess people at the club took videos

and posted them on Twitter.

Yeah, but fighting's not
a violation of the agreement.

So, what does this have
to do with the settlement?

When people saw the video,
everybody had something to say...

Black people, racist White people.

I mean, they used the
hashtag whythebitchgottased.

- Let me guess.
- You had to clap back.

They're trying to say that
the only reason why I got paid

was for that bigot
cop to go back to work.

Niecy, your lawyer went over this.

You're not allowed to talk
about any of that in public.

You know that.

But she can go to her lawyer

and tell her side of it, right, Paul?

Settlement agreements
are pretty standard.

No talk means no talk.

Man, I never meant for
any of this to happen.

I'll call the lawyer
and see what can be done.

No.

I got this.

I'll call him, myself.

_

[sighing]

HELEN: Joan...

so good to have seen you earlier.

Oh, D'Asia is so excited.

She's gonna be just a
fantastic addition to the group.

JOAN: [on phone]
That's why I'm calling.

It's about D'Asia.

Regretfully, I won't be able
to endorse her initiation.

I'm sorry.

You've endorsed three of my children

over the years, so...

why not my granddaughter?

JOAN: Look, I tried to warn
you about this at the mixer,

but, clearly, you weren't listening.

Given Niecy's very public,
and very violent behavior,

it's left me with no choice.

Niecy is not a member
of the organization, I am.

JOAN: Exactly.

Considering Patrick's
struggles with drugs,

and now Niecy becoming
as troubled as he is,

I mean, could D'Asia be next?

D'Asia Patterson is
an exemplary student,

classroom leader, volunteer at...

at Sunday School.

She would be perfect for Jack & Jane.

JOAN: That may be true.

But given who her father and sister are,

Jack & Jane has got to be careful.

If we let D'Asia in,

what kind of message would
that send to the members?

- [phone disconnects]
- Oh...

Hey, I've got everything, baby.

It's all set.

Got my collard greens,
my ribs, all the fixin's.

[chuckling]

Hey, babe, are you all right?

It's all happening again, Paul.

What?

What's happening?

The judgments, the looks. All of it.

I just talked to Joan

and she doesn't want
D'Asia to be initiated.

Is Jack & Jane really
that important to you, Helen?

Yes, Paul!

When I joined, it was about...

assimilating into the White world.

But now it's... it's about
identity, our identity,

being proud of being Black.

I've watched you put
on that smiling face

for over a year now,

and you're still hearing
whispers behind your back.

Look, I don't agree
with what Niecy said,

or how she said it.

There are gonna be repercussions.

But at least now everybody
knows exactly how she feels.

Okay.

You're right.

[kisses] I love you.

[chuckling]

- HELEN: [laughing]
- PAUL SR: [chuckling]

HELEN: Oh... Oh, my gosh.

PATRICK: What did the lawyer say?

He said that I violated

the settlement agreement
with Atlanta PD,

and that the hearing
is just a formality...

that I have to give the money back.

The lawyer fees and taxes, too?

- No. Thank God.
- Just my portion.

- That can't possibly be true.
- It is true.

I've gotta give back the whole $150,000.

- Whew.
- [sighs]

Here, come on. Come here and sit down.

All right, it's gonna
be all right, okay?

Just 'cause I'm disappointed

doesn't mean I'm not here for you.

That goes for us all.

We're family.

We must stick together no matter what.

It's not the end of the world, okay?

We'll just get the money
out of the trust and...

[sighing] return it.

Um...

There's a slight problem in that.

I never got around to
setting up the trust.

What do you mean you
never got around to it?

I was going to, I just... mmm...

PAUL SR: Where's the money, Niecy?

I mean, I know you bought new clothes

for you and the kids.

And you've been keeping up your weave

and your nails regularly, but...

That's not $150,000.

Well, I put down a
deposit on a breast lift.

PATRICK: Whew... whew...

I loaned my girls some money.

PATRICK: [heavy sigh]

All right, that doesn't account
for all the money, Niecy.

All right, where's the rest, huh?

Answer your father.

I bought Dante a car.

Good Lord.

Now I've heard it all.

You bought that deadbeat a car?

- He's been tryin'.
- Whew... oh...

He's been there for me,
Isabelle, and Treyvion.

Yeah, right, and now
that he has the car,

has he still been tryin', huh?

Now I'll ask you again.

Has Dante been hanging around
now that he has the car?

Huh?

Exactly. That's what I thought.

We're going to get that car back, huh.

I'm driving you over there myself

to make sure it happens.

You don't have to do that.

Well, with everything
that's been goin' down,

clearly, I do.

Now, come on, let's go.

Well?

It's too sweet.

Too much maple syrup or something. I...

This is the fifth batch we've made.

- I know that.
- It's just not...

it's not like Dad's, it's...

I don't know what we're doing wrong.

- Steve needs you
- _

It appears that Patrick's
having a meltdown

about her buying Dante the car.

PJ: [laughs]

- [cell phone buzzing]
- Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!

- I'm not here.
- I'm not here.

Hey, brother.

Yeah, how's it goin'?

Yeah, we... we heard from Niecy.

So, what did Mom and Dad say?

Yeah, we figured.

No, I know. I know.

But, you know, this
would have never happ...

You know what? Never mind.

Patrick, I'm gonna hand you off to PJ.

[whispering] No. No, stop.

- P, whaddup, dog?
- [laughing]

Yeah. Yeah. How you doing?

[clears throat]

That's crazy. Crazy.

Um, Letta? She... is...

[silently] No. No.

She went to the store.

We're trying to make
Dad's barbeque sauce.

Okay.

All right, man, I'll let her know.

All right, holla at you.

[sighing]

Please tell me what that was about.

I need to keep a healthy distance

from all of this, all right?

It's just better if
I just stay out of it.

For who? You or for them?

- For all of us.
- [laughs]

I mean, you want me
butting into everything again?

Just swooping in trying
to fix everything?

- Definitely not.
- Exactly.

So, let's just focus on this recipe.

[sighs] I'm over this.

I think it needs more vinegar.

You're gonna make me hate barbeque.

- Come on. Come on.
- No.

Come on.

Sure you don't want me to wait?

No. I told you I got this.

[knock at door]

[rapidly ringing doorbell]

[pounding on door]

Dante!

[dog barking]

Come on.

Oh, no, he didn't. Stay right here.

Hold your sister.

Amika, what the hell is goin' on?

I was about to ask
you the same damn thing.

Just give me the keys to my damn car.

Your car?

Yes, my car. It belongs to me.

Wow, so he's playin' us both, huh?

Well, I'm done with his triflin' ass.

For good, this time. You can have him.

So, he clearly ain't showin' up.

I'm sure he's somewhere
knockin' up his next baby mama.

Y'all want a ride home?

Naw, I'll call an Uber.

[object drops]

Uh-oh. Treyvion, hand me that.

ISABELLE: [fussing]

It's okay, mama. Don't worry about it.

Mommy's gonna clean this right off.

Why are you poutin'? [laughs]

[multiple kisses]

You're a good mom.

Who, me?

It's hard, you know?

I mean, I can't keep a job because

I ain't got nobody to
help me watch Marquis.

How do you do it with two?

My family helps me out a lot.

My family's barely
hanging on, themselves.

They ain't got time to help me.

Marquis has started
throwing these tantrums

when he don't get his way.

I can't even say, "Wait
till your Daddy gets home,"

'cause Dante don't care.

Ain't no tellin' when
I'll see him, anyway.

It's all on me.

Sometimes, I just wanna
walk away and keep walking.

I know I can't, but...

You know...

since our kids share a father,

I think we should get 'em
together for some play dates.

That's a good idea.

They should know each other, right?

Yeah, they should.

[raps on door] Hey, Dad.

Can I ask you a question?

Come in, son.

Man-to-man,
father-to-father.

- What's on your mind?
- [sighing]

Niecy and this latest screw-up.

I mean... [sighing] I don't know.

I just don't know if
I'm handling it right.

I mean, what am I supposed
to do... ground her?

[chuckling]

A grown woman with two kids.

Good luck with that.

Yeah, but I've gotta do something.

You know, your mom and I
made the same mistake with you

when you were going through your...

rough patches.

We tried to control the situation.

Nothing worked.

Son, sometimes the best thing
a parent can do is nothing.

Sometimes, you've just gotta
let your kids fall down.

Yeah, but...

it's hard to just sit back
and watch your kid fall.

[chuckles] Nobody
said it's gonna be easy.

Just make sure you're
there to help her up,

if she needs it.

Okay. [sighing]

And thanks, Dad, for
always being there for me...

No matter what.

Hey, that's what dads do.

BOTH: [laughing]

That's what we do. [chuckling]

- Ahh... oh...
- [pats Paul's back]

- Love you, Dad.
- Love you, too.

- You good?
- Yeah. Thanks.

NIECY: Bye, Marquis, baby.

Oh, you all strapped in, boo-boo?

You are so cute!

Mama, I like Marquis.

Oh, that's nice, baby.

He's my brother, right?

No, sweetie, I told you. Remember?

Dante is Isabella and Marquis' father.

But he still loves you just the same.

Why can't my daddy
come around like Dante?

Treyvion, sweetie, I told you...

Cameron is your father.

But why?

That's just the way it happened.

Why?

Cameron, he loves you very much.

He's just been busy with his new job

and his new fianc?e,

but he sends money for you every month.

I want Isabelle and
Marquis to be my family.

Um... sweetie...

can you go get in the car, please?

- [cell phone ringing]
- Hello?

MARY JANE: [on phone] Hey, Niecy.
How's it goin'?

Yeah, Auntie, I've
been waiting on your call.

I was trying to give you some space.

But you know I can't
hold my tongue that long.

I know you think I'm a stupid fool...

For messin' around with Dante again.

[sobbing]

I don't know what else to do.

Baby girl, there is
not a woman on this Earth

that has not been a fool for love.

Some of us more than once.

NIECY: Well, I guess I was just...

seduced... [sniffles]

...by the thought of having
a father for my kids again.

[sniffles]

I made a mess.

Niecy, you have two, beautiful,

intelligent children.

You're a good mother.

You have a very loving,
supportive family

to support you, even when you fail.

Now, your baby daddies leave
a lot to be desired, but

you have a father and a grandfather

who are more than willing
to pick up the slack.

Yeah, but you should
have saw how mad my dad was

when he found out about that car.

I know he was, and I
know it must feel like

you have the weight of the
world on your shoulders, but...

you're barely 22 years old.

And the Niecy that I know,

that girl can do anything
she sets her mind to.

So, maybe you use this time

to figure out whatever that is...

For your sake and the
sake of those kids.

Well, thank you, Auntie.

[sniffles] Um...

I guess you're really
enjoying New York, huh?

What makes you say that?

NIECY: Well, I mean...

you sound way more
chill, that's for sure.

And, um...

I guess you're enjoying
the big living now.

I suppose I am.

Hey, listen, baby, I've gotta go.

But, I love you.

I love you, too.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Did you enjoy the tour?

Yeah, yeah, these
are some cool offices.

I know, right?

Yeah, but why are
you here on a Saturday?

I'm trying to get some work
done since Lee's outta town.

Oh.

Just got off the phone with Niecy.

Oh, God... Is she a'ight?

I think so, but... [sighs]

I probably should have gone down there

on the weekends or something.

Wait, wait. You're playing, right?

No, I mean, if I was there,

Niecy would have put
the money in a trust

and not blown it on Dante and weaves.

Letta, I thought you were
done playing the rescuer.

- I am.
- Okay, so be done with it.

Look, they need to figure
this out on their own,

especially now that
you're here in New York.

- Seriously.
- So, I did the right thing?

Yes, of course, you
did the right thing.

Look, if you'd have gone down there,

all you would have done
is make everybody crazy.

Thank you.

You know I'm telling the truth.

Oh, thanks again for
hookin' Ava up with this.

I scored major points with her mom.

I owe you big time.

You do owe me big time,
and you can pay me back

by finding me a cheap short
sale or a hot foreclosure...

Something I can get for a steal.

- Please.
- I got ya. I got ya.

Look, let me get this girl home.

- I'll call you later, okay?
- All right.

Watch your step.

Listen, thank you.

I know that getting your help

with this internship was a big deal.

- Don't mention it.
- It's the least I could do.

All right, if you need anything,
you shoot me a text, okay?

You're not coming out to celebrate?

Where did you get that?

A visit to Aaron Felty's office

was included on the studio tour.

His bar is very well stocked.

You're joking, right?

You lifted that from
the anchor's office?

Are you trying to get
fired on your first day?

Don't be such a buzzkill.

Come back to my place.
Have a drink with me.

I've got an appointment to get to...

and I'm taking this.

Come on, get in.

[raps cab door]

D'Asia, just go in with the other girls,

while Grandma talks to the ladies
here, has a little conversation.

Okay.

Helen, perhaps I
didn't make myself clear.

Now I'm sorry if this is
difficult for you to accept,

but D'Asia will not be
invited to join Jack & Jane.

You made yourself
loud and clear, Joan.

But that's not exactly
how this is going down.

Really?

[loudly] I'm not leaving
here until I've said my peace.

Everyone here knows the
challenges my family has faced.

But I can't tell you
how devastated we were,

and how isolated we
felt, from the judgment,

in our own community.

Now, maybe I'm naive,
but I never imagined

that I would be faced with
the same judgment here...

From all of you.

But I guess none of you can relate

because you're all blessed
with perfect families.

I'm the only one who's had a family

that's been touched with scandal.

Right, Diane?

Mildred?

Right.

That's what I thought.

Are you done, Helen?

Tsk. I suppose I am.

MILDRED: Helen, wait.

My family, we're getting
ready to file bankruptcy.

Now, you may want to
throw Jessica out, too,

after you've heard
that, but it's the truth.

We've bailed our kids out so many times

there's just simply nothing left.

I'm leaving Charles.

It's something I should
have done long ago.

We've been married in name only

for at least six years.

We all have issues, Joan.

HELEN: That's right.

We do valuable work here.

But with the challenges and difficulties

Black families have today,

we have to support each other.

That's the kind of organization

I want D'Asia, and my
daughter, and granddaughter

to be a part of, and you should, too.

NIECY: [sighing]

Everything okay?

Yeah. Fine.

_

Listen to your gut, Niecy.

- My gut?
- Yeah.

Your gut has a way of letting you know

you've had enough.

Mm... it feels like
a stomach ache to me.

Yeah, well, the gut I'm
talking about is your instincts.

And your instincts tell
you when enough is enough.

But the trick is, you've
gotta listen to them.

Right.

I'll be back.

Okay.

DANTE: What took you so long?

Sorry, my phone was off.

So, what's up, girl?

How you gon' just take my car like that?

- No call or nothin'?
- You mean the car that I bought,

that you had some bitch driving?

That car?

Don't give me that crap, Niecy.

Amika my baby mama, too.

I've gotta help her out sometimes,

just like I help you.

- Come on, baby.
- No!

No, no, no. Don't "baby" me.

I am sick of you "babyin'" me.

Why don't you just admit it?

Admit what?

That this is all a lie, Dante.

You don't care about me,

you don't care about those kids.

All you care about is the new car,

the new clothes, the restaurants,

the TV that I got you.

You used me.

Just admit it.

Laid up with Amika the whole time?

And God knows whoever else.

You can't believe anything Amika say.

You know she crazy.

It's gone, Dante.

The money... is gone.

I had to give it all back.

So, what now?

What do you mean
you gave it all back?

Wait, where are you goin'?

- Niecy!
- Don't call me!

Don't call me unless it
has to do with Isabelle.

Don't call me for sex,
don't call me for rides,

money, none of that!

Don't call me! I'm done! I'm done!

- So, it's like that?
- Yeah, it's like that.

Ride off on your damn bike, stupid ass.

Is the food ready?

PAUL SR: Almost there.

Good, 'cause we got
some celebratin' to do.

- PATRICK: Oh, yeah?
- That's right.

Meet the newest member of Jack & Jane!

- ALL: [cheering]
- D'ASIA: [giggling]

- My girl!
- Congratulations!

- [palm slap]
- HELEN: [laughing]

PATRICK: Wow!

[knock at door]

First down! All right!

Uh...

MALE SPORTS COMMENTATOR:
They got a first down.

We just saw a great play like that...

Room service.

BOTH: [laughing]

- What's all this?
- PJ: [laughs]

Okay, so, I had Dad overnight
a couple of slabs of ribs

to the hotel, the kitchen
reheated them, and voil?!

- [gasping]
- PJ: [laughs]

Yeah, a little bit of ATL magic

right here in the Big Apple.

Yes. [laughing]

That's the way to
cure our homesickness.

So, I gotta call the family.

They're waiting for us
to facetime them, okay?

- Okay.
- Here we go.

[phone ringing]

- HELEN: Hello?
- PJ & MARY JANE: Hey!

Daddy, I'm so excited!

PJ, he just brought the ribs!

Letta, PJ, what's goin' on?

Mom, look, hit the, uh,
the button on the right.

The one that looks like a TV, remember?

HELEN: Right... right there, yes.

I'm pushing the button,
but why can't we see them?

- PATRICK: Come on.
- This thing is not workin'.

Okay, okay, we've been doing
this for months now, guys.

Come on.

Why can't we do it the
old fashioned way?

- Just get a phone.
- Patrick.

PJ: So, listen, we will,
um, talk to you all later.

We're having technical
difficulties on our end, okay?

But thank you so much for the ribs.

Thank you! We love you!

We love you so much! [blows kisses]

[laughing]

Oh... Yes, right there.

Well...

If I can�t be home with our crazy
family, at least we have each other.

- And dad�s ribs.
- And dad�s ribs.

- Hey.
- Ah.

I�m goin� to get some napkins,
forks, spoons, all these...

Hey baby... Why ain�t you out
there watching the Super Bowl.

Not feeling well today.

Well guess what? I gotta
surprise for you.

Wanna take a ride with mommy?

Yeh you wanna take a ride with mommy, come on.

I have somethin to show you,come on.

Alright Babe. Do you understand
why mom has to return this car.

Well you know,

sometimes adults buy things
that we can�t really afford.

So we have to take it back.

But before I do that,

I want to make sure that we got
a chance to have some fun.

So are you ready?

- For what.
- For this.

I am a single black mother of two.

Wheeeeee! [tires screeching]

NIECY NARRATES: ...who hasn't
always made the best decisions.

But I am here, and I
ain�t goin� away silently.

Woooooo!

You see I am a black woman who had
the nerve to raise her voice.

Wooooooo!

[car engine revving]

NIECY NARRATES: ...and that's
why this bitch got tased.
