00:00You're absolutely certain you aren't disappointed.
00:06Not even the least bit.
00:09Disappointed?
00:10Baby, please, look.
00:12We're still fresh in the marriage game, right?
00:14We've got plenty of time to build our family.
00:17I was terrified that after a second fail-go at it
00:20that she'd look at me like I'm...
00:22defective.
00:26Baby, are you out of your mind?
00:28I chose you, not your biology.
00:33Besides, one day soon,
00:36all of our princes and princesses
00:39will all be able to claim you.
00:40But for right now, I get to have you all to myself.
00:47All this royalty talk has me feeling some type of way.
00:51What way is that?
00:54That maybe we should get in more baby-making practice.

06:05looks like he's having just as much trouble letting you go as you are letting go of him
06:11you sorry son of a bitch
06:25you are a walking talking toxic storm
06:32you are a heartless manipulative bastard and you are incredibly beautiful
06:36you are a heartless manipulative bastard and you are incredibly beautiful
06:44You are a walking, talking, toxic storm.
06:48You are a heartless, manipulative bastard.
06:51And you are incredibly beautiful.
06:57Wait, wait, wait.
07:03Okay.
07:05What just happened?
07:07Did I do something wrong?
07:10Bill.
07:11No, babe, not this.
07:13Nothing's wrong.
07:14I just, um, I just have a lot on my mind.
07:17That's all.
07:17I just, um, the Simmons case is due tomorrow,
07:21and I haven't had time to review the final draft.
07:23Wait, wait, since when did paperwork interrupt us?
07:27You've covered multimillion-dollar settlements with less preparation.
07:30Well, yeah, but I got the early conference call with Wynn about the pharma case, so it's just...
07:35Except, wait, the Simmons case was filed yesterday,
07:39and I know because I delivered it myself to the courthouse,
07:42and you don't have a call with Wynn until next week.
07:45I've seen your calendar.
07:46Look, Haley, I don't appreciate being cross-examined in my own house.
07:50Look, I'm not one of your junior associates that you can just push around, Bill,
07:54and I don't appreciate being lied to.
07:57Why don't we head home?
08:00I'll make you that braised short rib you love so much.
08:03That sounds delicious, but I have an idea.
08:06How about, first, a drink?
08:09Don't you think that's inappropriate, considering the circumstances?
08:14It's just one drink.
08:16Something to take the edge off.
08:17No harm there.
08:19You know, I was holding out for our first drink together.
08:24With your father?
08:25Yeah.
08:27I had it all planned out.
08:28I thought we'd do it when I got back from summer break.
08:31You poured two glasses of scotch and tell me some profound dad wisdom I never forget.
08:36I guess that's an experience I'll never have, no.
08:40Have a seat.
08:42Pour this man a scotch.
08:46Actually, Vanessa, make it two.
09:02The Doug McBride.
09:03A man who raised an incredibly insightful son.
09:09To my father.
09:20Earlier, when I showed you my father's watch, I mentioned how my mom had it engraved.
09:26I remember.
09:27Well, you didn't even blink.
09:30So tell me why you didn't mention that you knew my mom.
09:38This is wild, Naomi.
09:40We're actually having a baby.
09:42Okay, all right.
09:43We gotta childproof this joint.
09:46You know what?
09:46No.
09:47We gotta level up.
09:48We need a bigger place.
09:49Jacob.
09:50Fairmont Crest.
09:51That's it.
09:52Like, I know you moved to D.C. to get out of your parents' pocket, but the schools are better there.
09:57And our little one deserves the best.
09:58Jacob, slow down.
10:01I'm sorry.
10:02I'm going on and on when you're not feeling well.
10:05Do you have to go to the doctor?
10:06I'm fine.
10:09I'm just nauseous.
10:11Okay, well, you have to go to the guy, no, ASAP.
10:13We gotta make sure the little guy's okay.
10:15Or the little girl.
10:17Like, I don't know what we're having.
10:18As long as we're having a healthy baby.
10:19Oh my God, Jacob, would you please stop?
10:22What's wrong?
10:24Are you not excited about the baby?
10:25I have never made it secret that I still have lingering feelings for Bill.
10:35Okay, we both came into this with both eyes open.
10:38I know you like Bill.
10:39And you love Ashley.
10:41Sweet, simple, safe Ashley.
10:44The human equivalent of unseasoned chicken.
10:47Okay, are we really going to do this?
10:50Tell me, does she make you use hand sanitizer before you touch her?
10:54Okay.
10:55Does she smell like hospital disinfectant?
10:57That's enough.
10:57What's wrong?
10:59Because I thought we were keeping it 100.
11:00You keep pretending that you're not counting down the days
11:02until Mother Teresa in Scrubs realizes she made a mistake choosing the firefighter.
11:07Okay, you're right.
11:10I do still carry a torch for Ashley.
11:13Which leads me to my question.
11:16Why the hell are we still married?
11:19Everything cool, baby?
11:21Of course.
11:22Where would it be?
11:23Uh, it seems that something on your phone has you spooked.
11:28Um, the ER is super short-staffed and Shanice just wanted to know
11:32if I could cover Liz's graveyard shift this week.
11:35This week?
11:36Doesn't she know we just got engaged?
11:38You know what?
11:40Why don't you make your way over to the couch
11:42and I have a special treat for you that I've been saving just for tonight.
11:47Look at these beauties.
11:59I made them just the way you like.
12:02Extra berries.
12:03Actually, I was thinking something a little more indulgent.
12:13What's really going on?
12:18One minute you're kissing me, waxing poetic about how much you love me,
12:23then suddenly, like a light switch flipped,
12:25you couldn't get away from me fast enough.
12:28That's ridiculous.
12:28Is it?
12:30Or was it that your mind was on your ex-wife in her brand new marriage?
12:35This again.
12:36Yes, Bill.
12:39We were about to make love, but it didn't feel the same.
12:44Something's haunting you, and if Danny isn't the problem,
12:49I want to know what is.
12:54Don't look at me with those puppy dog eyes.
12:56I'm just trying to read the wound, baby.
12:58This is big news.
12:59Yeah, big unwanted news.
13:01We've had this conversation a thousand times.
13:04You knew I didn't want kids.
13:05I hear you, but I thought maybe now that you're actually pregnant, you...
13:10What?
13:10I would suddenly feel my biological clock ticking?
13:13I'm a lawyer, Jacob,
13:15not some birthing machine who loses her sense of self.
13:18Okay, I get it, all right?
13:21This is a shock.
13:23A shock?
13:24This is a whole damn earthquake.
13:26I honestly don't even know how this happened.
13:31I think I know how.
13:34You're right, Donnell.
13:36I should have told you I knew your mother when you came here asking questions.
13:40But you didn't because you were already upset that your father was here that night.
13:46I didn't think it was the right time.
13:48Please don't blame Joey for what happened to your father.
13:52If he hadn't been here, he would have been at some other bar or someplace else where he could have bought into a poker game.
13:58When the man who put himself through medical school gambled away the watch you gave him?
14:06Just make it make sense.
14:08As awful as it is to accept, there's nothing any of us could have done to prevent it.
14:15I guess you're right, Mom.
14:17I mean, it's not like someone put him in that car.
14:20Is that Tina, the pre-med girl?
14:27You mean Tabitha?
14:29No, that was last month, Mom.
14:30Keep up.
14:32That's my frat brother, Rehobah.
14:35Hey, what's up, fam?
14:37Got something to show you from the chapter.
14:38We extend our condolences to Brother Donnell, deuce of all trades, McBride, on the loss of his beloved father, Dr. Douglas McBride, healer of bodies, mender of spirits, and champion of our community we share in our brother's loss.
14:57Man, that's beautiful.
14:59Chapter one to pay their respects.
15:01We got you, bro.
15:01This is nice.
15:11I've missed this.
15:13So how about we take it over to the bed?
15:16Look, we have all the time in the world.
15:17I don't want you pushing yourself too hard.
15:20Ash, this chair doesn't change how I feel about you.
15:23And I think it's about time I show my fiancée just how much she means to me.
15:28Unless you don't want to.
15:33I have always wanted you.
15:36Chair or no chair, that hasn't changed.
15:41Rehobah says the brothers are going to roll deep to the funeral.
15:44That's so sweet of them.
15:45Yeah.
15:46And he also picked up on how clean Dad's watch was.
15:49I remember the night I gave your dad that watch.
15:52It was our 10th anniversary.
15:57We'd been struggling to connect that year.
16:00Him with his crazy hours at the hospital, me trying to start the real estate business.
16:05But I surprised him with that.
16:09And when he opened it, for once in his life, Dr. Douglas McBride was speechless.
16:18He would be so proud seeing it on your wrist now.
16:20We have Joey to thank for that.
16:23You know, if it wasn't for him and depressing that shady dealer, then we might have never seen it again.
16:30That's the least I can do.
16:33How this happened?
16:35Let me see.
16:37A strong black king and his sexy, beautiful black queen make love.
16:42Are you seriously about to explain the birds and bees right now?
16:45I'm just trying to lighten the mood.
16:47Well, you knew what I meant.
16:48And this isn't funny.
16:49I'm usually so careful with my birth control.
16:54But between work and Ashley, Derek drama and Chelsea's kidnapping, I must have forgotten to take my pills.
17:01And I was barely eating, barely sleeping, just trying to keep it together while my sister was God knows where.
17:06You don't have to drop your career because of this.
17:13That brilliant legal mind isn't going anywhere.
17:16And you have me.
17:18All day, every day.
17:19And together we'll work this out.
17:20No, but no, it's different for women.
17:22Listen, you get to be a big-time detective with a baby at home and they'll call you a family man.
17:29Me?
17:30They'll question why I don't have my priorities straight.
17:33They'll whisper and judge and wonder why I'm not at home raising my child.
17:38You don't know that.
17:39Yes, I do.
17:40There are plenty female lawyers with families who still kill it in the courtroom.
17:43I don't want to be another lawyer.
17:46I want to be great.
17:49I want to change laws, set precedents, fix this crazy, messed up world.
17:54And a baby is not a part of that plan.
17:57My pops always said there are no accidents in life.
18:01What is that supposed to mean?
18:03If the stars converged to disrupt our best laid plan, maybe it's time to make a new plan.
18:09If we both have feelings for other people, maybe we should put pause on this marriage situation.
18:16I'm just saying.
18:17I thought we were both clear on what this is.
18:20We're just having fun, right?
18:22And don't act like you haven't been thoroughly entertained.
18:24It's fun for us, but it's straight up torture for everyone else.
18:27Who cares what they think?
18:28In fact, weren't you the one who was giving me grief over worrying about Nicole knowing that we were sleeping together?
18:34Yeah, back when we were harmlessly fooling around.
18:37But the stakes are different now, Danny.
18:38A flimsy sheet of paper with our names on it doesn't change anything.
18:42Don't get me wrong.
18:44It wasn't exactly a day at the spa getting shaken down by my mother.
18:48Everyone thinks this marriage is a big drunken mistake.
18:51Okay, you might be used to people being all up in your business, but I'm not.
18:56Ted and Nicole are all I have.
18:58And I'd hate to lose either of them over this.
19:01Especially if the rest of you, Dupree, start treating me like I'm the villain in your story.
19:05The way they do, Bill.
19:06I need you to talk to me.
19:09You know, what is there left to talk about, hmm?
19:12You seem to have everything all figured out.
19:14According to you, I'm still thinking about Danny.
19:17Okay?
19:17Is that your professional diagnosis?
19:19That isn't fair.
19:21I'm just trying to understand what happened between us.
19:23You know what isn't fair?
19:25What isn't fair is me having to constantly be on the defensive in my own damn house.
19:28Every conversation we have ends up circling back around to her.
19:31Well, this is my house, too.
19:34Have you forgotten we're married?
19:35Yeah, it is.
19:36It is.
19:37And I bought it for you.
19:38In one of the most expensive and exclusive gated communities in the DMV area.
19:42But instead of being grateful and instead of enjoying it with me, you interrogate me 24-7 about my ex-wife.
19:47Yeah, that's because you won't stop obsessing over her.
19:51So much so that now you can't even make love to me.
19:58Your wife.
19:59The woman who's supposed to be the center of your world, Bill.
20:03Okay.
20:04All right.
20:04Is that what you think?
20:06Hmm?
20:06That I'm not attracted to you anymore?
20:08Is that what you think?
20:08What else am I supposed to think?
20:10Huh?
20:11I'm not fighting for your love, Bill.
20:12I'm fighting for space in your damn head and losing to a woman who isn't even in this house.
20:17Okay.
20:18You want my attention?
20:19Hmm?
20:19Is that what you want?
20:20Oh, Bill!
20:22Wait!
20:22Come here.
20:23What are you doing?
20:24I'm taking my wife upstairs to prove to her just how wrong she is.
20:28Wait!
20:29Bill!
20:33So random chaos is our strategy now?
20:36Cool.
20:36You said it yourself.
20:38You're meticulous about everything, including your birth control.
20:41Color-coded calendar reminders the whole nine, yet here we are.
20:44Because I was falling apart, Jacob.
20:47When Chelsea disappeared, I was falling apart.
20:49This is not some phenomenon.
20:51It's a curveball.
20:53You don't mean that.
20:55I meant it before we got married, and I mean it now.
20:58And you were with me on that.
21:01With how dangerous your job is, we agreed.
21:03To not have kids.
21:05Yes, I remember.
21:06But maybe, just maybe, there's a version of you in the future who will want kids.
21:10You are not listening to me.
21:13My work gives me purpose the way a baby wouldn't.
21:16And I am all too familiar with what it's like growing up with a mother who's grieving her old life.
21:21Oh, come on.
21:22I never once heard Dani say she regrets having you or your sister.
21:25No, I don't.
21:26I don't think she does.
21:28I'm just...
21:29There's definitely some unresolved feelings there.
21:31I saw it in her eyes when she'd look at old magazine covers.
21:37Because Dani Dupree wasn't just a model.
21:41She was the supermodel.
21:44Black girl magic personified before it ever had a name.
21:47And she gave it up.
21:50For us.
21:54I don't want to be that selfless.
21:56So, you're not having second thoughts?
22:06Surprisingly, no.
22:08Hmm.
22:09I like you, Andre.
22:11I always have.
22:13Even when you were just my sister's too handsome for his own good nephew.
22:17Mm-hmm.
22:18And this union of ours feels freeing.
22:22Yeah.
22:22I like you, too.
22:24And believe me, being your husband definitely has its perks.
22:28All right.
22:28Slow your roll, cowboy.
22:30I think we need to lay some ground rules.
22:33Oh.
22:33So we need rules now?
22:34Mm-hmm.
22:35Like?
22:35Rules that ensure my second marriage doesn't end up like my first.
22:46What are you doing in there?
22:48The suspense is killing me.
22:53How do I look?
22:55You always look beautiful.
22:58In scrubs or like that.
23:01Well.
23:02Getting you into this bed was easier than I thought.
23:08Shanice has got me grinding in my upper body PT, but nothing motivates muscle development.
23:14Like the prospect of holding the woman you left.
23:20Are you sure you're ready for this?
23:23I mean, we can just be here together, however that looks right now.
23:29I need to find our way back to us, Ash.
23:33I need to remember what it feels like being a man with you.
23:37Not just a patient.
23:40You've never stopped being a man to me, Derek.
23:43Not for a single moment.
23:45Look, just leave it alone, Haley.
23:52I'm going to do some work.
23:53Why don't you listen?
23:55You know, you think that insulting me is effective foreplay?
23:59You're the one who swept me off my feet like some caveman trying to prove that Danny isn't in your head.
24:04And all you did was confirm what I already knew.
24:08You need to choose your next words with extreme care, Haley.
24:13Look, you aren't the only one in this relationship.
24:15And I can just turn it on when I know who's really in your head.
24:20And what happened earlier?
24:21Yeah, it happens, okay?
24:22It happens.
24:23And it would have been a passing incident.
24:25But you're still searching for this proof that I'm still caught up on Danny.
24:28And now you think you found it.
24:29Look, I'm just frustrated that I found out that I'm not carrying your child.
24:38Look, you and Danny share a connection because you created two human beings together.
24:48If I gave you a child of our own, we'd have that same unbreakable bond, Bill.
24:53Baby, how many times do I have to keep telling you this?
24:58What we have together, what we share, it runs deeper than DNA.
25:01Look, you're just saying that to smooth things over, to make me forget what happened or didn't happen here.
25:09I'm saying it because it's the truth.
25:15In that case, maybe you should talk to Dr. Reynolds.
25:21Oh, my God.
25:22What?
25:22They have medication for exactly...
25:25I don't need pills, Haley.
25:27I don't need that.
25:29So what?
25:29I had performance anxiety.
25:31So what?
25:31It was a one-time thing.
25:32Damn.
25:32There is no shame at getting help, babe.
25:36But I'm not talking about this no more.
25:39Where are you going?
25:40Clear my head.
25:44Excuse me.
25:44What's on your mind, baby?
25:54I'm just having a hard time picturing Dad in a place like this.
25:58I still remember his lectures about fiscal responsibility.
26:00Those little budget books he made you keep?
26:05He wanted you and your sister to be better than he was.
26:08That's all any parent ever wants.
26:10You know, everything I learned about him?
26:14It's like there was two Doug McBrides.
26:16You know, the man who raised me and a man who I barely know.
26:20You know, a guy who gambled away his watch and drove drunk.
26:22How could those be the same people?
26:35Baby, I would never in a million years ask you to give up your career.
26:40That degree you busted your ass for?
26:42The way you go to war for people who can't even fight for themselves?
26:45That's who you are at the core.
26:47It's my whole life, Jacob.
26:49And I'm so, so proud of you.
26:52And one day, our son or daughter will look at you the same exact way.
26:57Just you wait until some screaming infant is waking us up for 2 a.m. feedings
27:01when you've been on a stakeout all night.
27:03And I'll get up every single time.
27:06And it won't just be some kid.
27:08It's our kid.
27:09With your brilliance and my swagger.
27:12The physical manifestation of the love we built together.
27:16Just imagine it, baby.
27:18Jacob, stop.
27:19Look, just hear me out.
27:20All right?
27:20Picture this.
27:22Saturday mornings with pancakes and cartoons.
27:26Teaching our kid how to ride a bike in the park.
27:28Watching their face light up on Christmas morning.
27:30Make it sound like a made-for-TV movie.
27:33I'm not saying it's going to be easy.
27:35There are going to be sleepless nights and tantrums.
27:37And we won't have all the answers.
27:39But there will also be those special moments.
27:41Those firsts.
27:43Watching them take their first steps and say their first words.
27:46You hearing them say mama for the first time.
27:48And what if I let the kid down?
27:53Baby, you excel at everything you do.
27:55What makes this any different?
27:57What makes this any different?
28:00Your father was an addict.
28:03But those demons he wrestled with?
28:06They don't negate how he was there through your asthma attacks during wrestling.
28:12Or the time he taught you to tie a double Windsor for prom.
28:18His addiction does not change how much he loved you.
28:28Nothing could ever change that.
28:31In this world.
28:34Or the next.
28:35Okay, let's get into it.
28:48What are these so-called ground rules?
28:51One.
28:52You and I hold no claim on each other.
28:55Once upon a time, I believed in monogamy.
28:57But that shattered when Bill threw me over for that nymphette who probably still has her wisdom teeth.
29:01Okay, so you're saying you don't mind us sleeping with other people.
29:04As long as we're honest and safe.
29:07Does that work?
29:08I got you.
29:10Two.
29:10Mm-hmm.
29:11The second either one of us has had enough of this social experiment, we communicate.
29:17No ghosting, no passive-aggressive texts or hints.
29:21Just straight talk.
29:22I'd never do that to you anyway.
29:24I respect you too much.
29:26So?
29:27I love that.
29:28Because when this stops being fun, I still want to be friends.
29:31And if one of us catches feelings?
29:34We'll cross that bridge when we get to it.
29:38Okay, bet.
29:39One more.
29:41Lastly, as my husband, you are required to give me three orgasms a week.
29:50Just three?
29:51You underestimate me.
29:53Come here.
29:55So, Bill used to give you foot massages, huh?
30:00Oh, my God.
30:02The Brazilian toe technique.
30:04You being well-traveled is really paying off.
30:07I see we have skipped the honeymoon phase and gone straight to Fifty Shades of Matrimony.
30:14Baby, I don't need a room full of toys to get the job done.
30:17No.
30:26You still up?
30:28You still mad?
30:31Yeah, that's what the walk was for.
30:33Oh, okay.
30:39Listen, baby.
30:42You wanted Danny out of our lives.
30:44You wanted me to set boundaries.
30:46I did that.
30:47But you're the one who's still upset.
30:50I was just making an observation.
30:53No, babe.
30:55You were making accusations.
30:57Okay?
30:57That's what you always do when it comes to Danny.
30:59But she's not our problem anymore.
31:01Right?
31:03So her new husband can deal with her and all of her drama.
31:07I just hope that Andre Richardson knows what he signed up for.
31:12Damn, Mrs. Richardson.
31:13That was next level.
31:15What you did on that coffee table?
31:17I know.
31:18I haven't been like that since my high-fashion posing days.
31:21A woman could get used to this.
31:23Yeah?
31:23So should I stick around?
31:27Oh, as deliciously tempting as that sounds, I have an early morning Zoom with Pamela to talk about the modeling agency.
31:33Okay.
31:33So you need a scoop before I change my mind.
31:36Cool.
31:36You know, um, I just had a thought.
31:39Why don't I move in?
31:42Move in here?
31:43Yeah.
31:44Why not?
31:46You can have me whenever you want me.
31:48I jerk a man.
31:48Can I respectfully say thanks, but no thanks?
31:54I cohabitated with a man for decades, and I've actually grown to like living on my own.
31:59Yeah.
32:00Plus, absence makes the heart grow fonder.
32:03Mm-hmm.
32:03And other parts grow more eager.
32:05Oh, okay.
32:06Then how about a drawer?
32:08It's a drive to get here.
32:09The least you can do is to make it easier for your hard-working husband.
32:12A drawer I can do.
32:14Mm-hmm.
32:15But ask for closet space at your own risk.
32:21Babe, I'm not hurting you, am I?
32:22No, it's not that.
32:23I just...
32:24This would be a lot easier if I could move my damn legs.
32:28If I could just hold you like I used to.
32:32Derek.
32:34This is never going to work.
32:36I can't even make love to you properly, but what kind of husband am I going to be?
32:41The kind that never gives up, even when the world is burning down around him.
32:46Hey, you will be able to make love to me again with your whole body.
32:51I'm sure of it.
32:53What if this is as good as it gets?
32:58Wow.
32:59Then we are just going to have to get creative.
33:03You know, there are plenty of ways to please someone.
33:07Let me show you.
33:11You mean...
33:12You've been sitting here quiet for a while.
33:20What you thinking?
33:23Everything you said.
33:26That beautiful picture you painted of our child growing up.
33:30What?
33:31Summers at the beach.
33:34Christmas mornings with too many presents because the grands couldn't control themselves.
33:38How your face lit up when you talked about it.
33:46I can see how much this means to you.
33:49I never thought this was something I'd want.
33:52Which is one of the things I love most about you.
33:55Your capacity for love and how you pour it into everything you do.
34:00And I hate that I feel like I am dumping on your dreams.
34:06No, it's okay.
34:07You're telling me how you feel.
34:09It's what we do.
34:10It's why we work.
34:12Jacob.
34:14You would make a terrific father.
34:17And despite how happy this pregnancy has made you.
34:27I'm not happy.
34:31You're out of here?
34:33Yep.
34:34It has been quite an emotional tsunami today.
34:37And I need Donnell's input on Doug's memorial service.
34:42Thank you for all your help, Mr. Armstrong.
34:44And being able to have my father's favorite watch, it helps with the healing.
34:53Anytime.
35:14Yeah.
35:18Thank you for playing along with the kid.
35:21And the watch was a perfect touch.
35:24You'll be paid within the hour.
35:27It'll be fine.
