[music]

Sandra, have you
seen Mr. Reginald?

He has a bottle
of sleeping pills, baby,

and I'm afraid he's going
to harm himself.

No, I haven't seen him.

Please help me check
the other residents' rooms,

and see if anyone
knows where he is.

OK, I will.

Jesus.

The patio.

Oh, my God. Reginald.

[screams]

You almost gave
me a heart attack, Leah.

You almost gave me one,
Mr. Reginald.

What are you doing
with the sleeping pills?

Did you take the pills?

No, I didn't.
I didn't take the pills.

I came out here
to think a little,

at least to try.

I must have fallen asleep.

I haven't been
sleeping well lately.

Oh, I'm sorry about breaking
into the medicine cabinet.

Mr. Reginald, I don't care
about that stupid lock.

I care about you.

We all do.
Thank the Lord you're OK.

Am I? I have dementia, Leah.

Yes, Mr. Reginald,
you have dementia,

but we're treating
your symptoms.

Medication isn't working.

Give it time.

Same with the therapies
and the lifestyle changes.

Diet, exercise, staying social,
those are your answers.

Ending it all is not, OK?

It's already ended for me, Leah.

Life is a highway, they say,

and everybody here
is speeding down the highway

while I'm off to the side,
stuck in park, tank on empty.

You gotta find a way
to refuel your tank.

There's plenty of road
ahead of you.

Hmm.

But only you have
the power to control

getting your car
moving forward again. You.

I get lost, Leah.

Thank you for the direction.

Oh, Mr. Reginald.

You know what?

No more of these, OK?

You having bad thoughts,
I am always here.

Now, I am gonna refer you
to a mental health professional.

But I know a great therapist.

And I'll find a way
to fill my tank again.

OK.

Oh, you can't scare me like
that, Mr. Reginald.

? No matter what you do
I love you ?

? No matter where you go
I'm behind you for sure ?

? Always remember,
blood ain't never water ?

? We'll make it
if we stay together ?

Anastasia, what has you
so thinking so deeply?

I'm having a hard time
deciding what I should do.

Oh, well, you're in luck.

Because Efe Omowale is here
to provide advice

with the accumulated wisdom
of the ancients.

I just love that you carry

that ancient wisdom
in your spirit.

Oh, no, no. I carry it here
on my mobile device.

I have an unlimited data plan.

Well, I have had enough
of the Internet.

I got canceled
because I accidentally liked

someone's offensive post
on social media.

And the producer canceled
your guest appearance on

-As the Bold and Restless Turn ?
-Oh, you heard me? Yeah.

My ancestors heard you yelling.

I'm so stressed.

And the one person that has been
able to take my mind off things,

I can't invite him over.

Wait, are you talking
about the barber

that you have been seeing,
Lawrence?

Why can't you invite him over?

I worry that we just aren't
the right fit long term.

I hate to lead him on
if we're not a romantic match.

So in my country,
when a woman is unsure

whether she should
continue dating a man,

she introduces him to her
tribe.

Oh.

Yes, because your friends
and family know you best.

So, they are best
in the position

to advise you of
whether you're a good match.

That sounds like
a wonderful plan.

I will invite Lawrence
over for tea,

and you all can render
your judgment.

And now that you have
set my romantic life

on the proper course,

I'm off to see if
Sandra and Reginald

can get my acting career
back on track.

-Wish me luck.
-Good luck!

I'm gonna need it.

Vincent, why do you look like

your most productive goat
has just died?

I was looking forward
to going to that food expo,

you know, so I could meet
my culinary hero,

you know, the Picasso of pizza,
the guru of grits, Chef Wilson,

but damn thing sold out, man.

Oh, do not despair, Vincent.

You're just in the need
of something to do.

Oh!

Anastasia is inviting
over her male suitor.

Mm-hmm.

So maybe you can assist us
in determining

whether she should continue
dating him or break up.

Oh, I'm so excited!
Look, I just can't hide it.

I'm about to lose control,
but I think I like it.

I didn't know you'd be this
excited to meet

one of Anastasia's
would-be boyfriends.

No, no, no.
I'm not excited to meet him.

I'm excited to make the dude
look bad in front of Anastasia.

That way, she'll break it off.

You know, I can't believe
you are still holding out hope

that Anastasia will one day
call you her boo thing.

Oh, you don't understand.

I'm about to look way better
than this Lawrence the barber.

You can believe that, man.
I'm about to show him up!

[laughter turns to coughing]

No! Whiskey.
I don't want that. Whiskey.

OK.

Reginald, darling, what
on earth are you doing?

I'm playing tennis, what does
it look like I'm doing?

Oh, I know you're building
a ship in a bottle,

but why didn't you meet us
in my room like I asked?

Because I'm not a charity case,
and you only asked me

because you feel sorry for me.

Mr. Reginald, we really do
need your help.

You're the smartest person
we know.

Well, that may
have been true once upon a time,

but the lucid Lusitania
has sailed away, so to speak.

Was that English?

The Lusitania was
a transatlantic passenger ship,

and lucid means to be
in one's right mind,

ergo it's simply a metaphor
that states,

my brain power has set sail,
never to return.

You literally just said every
word in the thesaurus,

which is why you're the perfect
genius to help clear my name.

Look, would you please just give
us your opinion

on this social media post
I wrote?

It's designed
to rehab Miss Anastasia's image.

Huh? What you've done here
is wonderful, Sandra.

You've been transparent
and admitted to the mistake

instead of concocting
some cockamamie excuse.

You don't think me admitting
to being clueless

on social media casts
me in a negative light?

I think it makes you
super relatable.

Agreed.

And people,
often people our age,

are very unfamiliar
with the social media.

And, uh, and I
believe being honest

will earn the public sympathy
and forgiveness.

-OK, well let's post it.
-[Reginald] Mm-hmm.

Now we wait.

So how's your tiny ship coming?

Are you just asking me that

because you, uh, want me
to be more socially involved?

Guilty as charged.

I could care less
about tiny boats.

But big boats?
That's another story.

Did I ever tell you
about that time

on Prince Ferdinand's
super yacht

when he asked me
to walk his plank?

Oh, oh, Miss Anastasia,

your highly inappropriate story
will have to wait.

You're back up to
10,000 followers and growing.

It's working!
Oh, Sandra Reginald, thank you!

Let's be honest, you simply
asked my opinion and I gave it.

I didn't have anything
to do with your,

your change of fortunes.

Uh, wait, Miss Anastasia,
do you know Carlita Cumberbatch?

Carlita was my main
Hollywood rival years ago. Why?

Uh, she's saying you're lying

and that you really do
hate animals.

She said she once saw you
kick a puppy

in a fur coat,
wearing alligator skin boots.

Well, I never!

Oh, no. Your followers
are going back down.

-What do we do, Sandra?
-I don't know.

8,000? 5,000?

What are we gonna do?

What are you doing?
Lawrence is just coming for tea.

Why are you stretching
your muscles?

You know, if you stay ready,
you ain't got to get ready.

-[doorbell rings]
-I'll get it.

Hi, I'm Lawrence.
Is Anastasia here?

-Got the wrong address, partner.
-[door slams]

Vinnie!

Oh, Vinnie has a very peculiar
sense of humor.

Please, come in. Come in, sir.
How are you?

Efe?

-Ah, yes, yes, yes.
-I've heard so much about you.

Well, we ain't heard
a damn thing about you.

There's that peculiar
sense of humor again.

Anastasia told me you both
went to the movies?

You know she loves
the movies very much.

So what film did you see?

Uh, none. I was just
dropping off my aunts.

Personally,
I don't care for movies.

Ooh, I see you do
crossword puzzles.

She likes her puzzles.

So that's just something
you have in common

Actually, puzzles don't interest
me in the slightest.

This is Anastasia's.

It fell out of her purse
in my car.

And...is it hot in here?
Because I'm burning up.

I had to put a sweater on,
it's so cold in here.

Oh Anastasia, can you please
point me to the restroom?

I want to wash my hands

before I try some of those
delicious looking sandwiches.

Oh, sure. That way.

Anastasia, this man
is not right for you.

He is too dumb to do
crossword puzzles, right?

Too lame to watch a movie,

and he's going to run your
AC bill through the roof.

Three strikes, his ass is out.

But there are other ways
he and I don't match.

It seems he and I are just
missing that spark, you know?

Well, they say in my country,
when there's no spark,

no amount
of rubbing wood can start one.

I beg to differ,
but not in this case.

I guess I'll let Lawrence know.

Hey, hey, Lawrence, Anastasia
got something to tell you.

Vinny, if I may?

In the restroom, I noticed an
issue of Foodie Magazine

addressed to you.
Do you like to cook?

I'm the best chef
in seven seas, man.

-Really?
-Uh-huh.

Well, I happen to cut the hair
of Master Chef Wilson.

-Chef Wilson?
-Mm-hmm.

-The Chitlin' Champion?
-That's the one.

-The Wizard of Waffles?
-Absolutely.

-The Burger Boss, that dude?
-No other.

And he gave me two tickets
to the big cooking expo tonight.

Man, I've been trying to get
tickets for that. It's sold out!

Well, you know, I'd be more than
happy to take you as my guest.

Now, we're talking
about a VIP experience now.

Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

I'm talking about
backstage passes.

-What?
-I'm talking about autographs.

Father God.

And maybe, maybe
even a food tasting

with the Souffle Sensei himself.

Thank you, Jesus.
Jesus, thank you.

Let me get this right.
You'd do that for me,

even though I slammed
the damn door on your face?

Of course, man.

I mean, I am dating
your good friend Anastasia,

so I got you, all right?

And Anastasia, what was
it that you wanted to tell me?

[Vinny] He's alright.
Nothing wrong with him.

and you've been nothing
but a gentleman,

but I've given it
a lot of thought and I--

And she is still excited
to keep seeing you.

-Isn't that great news?
-Oh, yeah, that is great news.

And I am excited to keep seeing
you too, Anastasia.

Well, actually, I was going to--

She was going
to tell you earlier,

but that's the reason she
invited you over here,

so she could tell,

this is like a "Let's keep
seeing each other," celebration.

Remember the discussion
we had about compatibility?

Oh, yeah, I remember.
I mean, so what?

They're not compatible
in certain areas,

but they balance out in others.
I mean, they work well.

Yes, but I don't think
it is your place to...

I know my place to make a toast.
That I do.

Hands up in the air.

Make a toast to
Lawrence and Anastasia!

May you keep
seeing each other forever.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no,
stop, stop.

Anastasia, please, tell
Lawrence how you truly feel.

I must admit,
our differences in personalities

have given me pause.

Please.

But after thinking more,
I have decided...

Don't say it.

That I, in fact, want
to continue seeing you.

Oh, that's great!

-Now, who wants cookies?
-Oh, I do. Let's get some.

[Vinny] He's alright.

-I'm confused.
-I am too, but I'm going.

OK.

Yikes. Miss Anastasia,
you're officially trending.

That's good news, isn't it?

The other trending topics
besides you are gas prices,

climate change
destroying the Earth,

and robot AI
murdering human beings.

This is so unfair.

None of Carlita's
allegations about me

hating animals are true.

It doesn't matter.
It's the Internet.

Trolls can say
whatever they want.

Uh, that's not
entirely the case.

It's not?

No. Laws against libel
and slander hold true,

even on the World Wide Web.

What can we do?

Well, it's not what we can do.

It's what we will do.

Watch out.
Judge Juney's on the case.

Esteemed Judge Reginald Juney
is going to issue

the scoundrel
Carlita Cumberbatch

a cease and desist,
and threaten to sue her

with social media defamation.

You go, Judge Juney.

I will force her to admit

her allegations against you
are completely false.

Can you make it so that
she also has to admit

that I age like fine wine,
and she ages like milk?

Uh, no, I'm sorry, but, uh,

judging from her
profile picture,

that fact remains a matter
of public record.

-Anastasia, that was wonderful.
-Yeah.

Thank you so much
for the invitation.

Thank you for coming, darling.

And Vinny, you
have a wonderful facility here.

Well, it looks like you're going
to be coming around a lot,

so I might as well just show
you the lay of the land.

-Come on, let's go. Yeah.
-OK.

Actually Vincent, I need
to speak with you.

Efe, do you mind giving
Lawrence a tour

of the facility instead?

Oh, it would be my pleasure.
Come on.

All right.
Here we go. Here we go.

All right. All right.
I know what you're going to say.

Oh?

That I wanted you
to keep dating Lawrence

so I could go
to the cooking expo.

I don't think that, I know it.

OK, and you think that I only
put up with his lame behind

so I'd get a chance to meet
The Maestro of Macaroni?

I didn't decide to continue
dating Lawrence because of you.

-I did it for me.
-You did?

When you said how our
differences

made Lawrence and I a good pair,
I got to thinking.

In spite of our differences,
Lawrence is a good man.

And even though
that spark is missing

that I have shared with virile
men on all seven continents,

to include Antarctica,

have you ever had
crisp, arctic love

wearing nothing but mukluks?

Anastasia, come on back.
Come back. Come back.

We're in the kitchen. We're in
the kitchen. You were saying.

The bottom line is I'm not
exactly a spring chicken anymore

so who am I
to be picky with love?

Who are you? Who are you
to be picky with love?

I tell you who,
you're Anastasia Devereux.

You're a very special woman,

and you're adored by
fans around the world.

Even the ones right here
in Pleasant Day.

And I'm talking about
your biggest fan.

And when I say your biggest fan.

Vincent, behave.

Okay Anastasia, look.

Bottom line,
you're a very special woman.

And you ain't got to settle
for no lukewarm cup of tea.

Hell, you ain't go to settle
for no man.

-Thank you, Vincent.
-Mm-hmm.

-I needed that.
-Yeah.

-Lawrence, may I have a word?
-Of course.

I was thinking further.

You are
a wonderful and kind man,

and you always find ways
to cheer me up.

But it's best that
we part as friends.

I see.

Does that mean I no longer
have to sweat in silence

because you set the thermostat
to tropical heat wave?

Yes, and I never again

have to get frostbite
in your car.

-Well, Vinny?
-Yes.

-It was a pleasure meeting you.
-Oh, man. Yeah.

The lovely Anastasia and I
have decided to just be friends.

-Oh, OK.
-But that free haircut?

-Mm-hmm?
-That's still up for grabs.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. I want to ask
you something. Look here.

Then I don't get a chance
to go to the cooking expo?

That'd be a no.

Your hairline's crooked!
You came up short!

Your breath stank!
Your feet stink!

Hope you get your mom
out of jail soon!

What?

Reginald, darling,
what in the world are you doing?

I'm skydiving, what does
it look like I'm doing?

Didn't you hear the news?

Your letter threatening my rival

with a social media
defamation lawsuit worked.

She publicly admitted that
none of what she said

about me abusing animals
was true.

So she took full responsibility?

And that's not
even the best news.

Lay it on me.

This whole scandal has made
Anastasia Devereaux

as popular as ever.

I just got a call from As the
Bold and Restless Turn ,

and they officially
offered me a guest role

on the number one soap opera in
the country, and I accepted!

-Oh, wonderful.
-Oh, thank you.

And I am officially offering you

the job as my social media
coordinator. What do you say?

I say...

you have just helped
me get my car back on the road.

Oh, I love you.
