00:00Boom! Who's the king now?
00:07What? I was just about to level up.
00:14It's not fun when someone steals from you, is it?
00:17I didn't know who stole my last Greek yogurt, but it had to be you.
00:20You know we can't dip without it?
00:21I ate the yogurt.
00:23I wanted to avoid an energy lag. I'll go to the store later.
00:27Why didn't you just say so, Dad?
00:28It's hard to get a word in with World War siblings going on.
00:32Hey, I can hear you guys yelling from outside.
00:35Samantha's escalating about a missing yogurt into the Hunger Games.
00:38That's not true.
00:40She's triggered all the time.
00:41I'm the only one banned from screens while the rest of you live your best digital lives.
00:46It's literally a slow and painful death.
00:48If you were literally dying, all your organs would be shutting down and then you'd be going pale.
00:53Paleo mortis. Then, liver mortis. All your blood flows down to your lower parts of your body.
00:59And finally, rigor mortis. All your muscles stiffen up.
01:03We get it.
01:04We get it.
01:05Ew. In all my years coming here, I've never...
01:08What's her problem?
01:14I messed up another order.
01:17No need to bite your head off. It's food. Delicious food.
01:22But it's not a matter of life or death for the customer.
01:25In this case, it was. Her husband's got high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes.
01:31I handed him a plate of death.
01:34Someone else's mother pork chops, candied yams, potato salad instead of the low-salt salmon croquettes and side salad she ordered off the healthy menu.
01:43What if I sent her husband to ICU?
01:46That woman would have never let that food pass his lips.
01:50It's human nature to make mistakes. Hmm?
01:53It should be human nature to be graceful in the face of them.
01:57Especially when someone expresses remorse.
01:59Hmm. Making mistakes has gotten way too natural for me.
02:03I almost got fired once already.
02:05Spirit's a big part of the job.
02:08Yours is megawatt. Mm-hmm.
02:11It makes up for a lot.
02:13You're the kindest.
02:16Now, what can I do for you?
02:20Two pieces of peach cobbler to go.
02:23Again? That's twice a week on the regular.
02:29You and the missus are developing quite a sweet tooth.
02:32Yeah.
02:33Here, let's go next to what you do.
02:34I missus!
02:35In the meantime,Shachoo.
02:36Show him back everything, and it'll be like fun.
02:37Hu.
02:39Woo.
02:41I missus.
02:42You and Missus are my favorite.
02:44I missus after hauling aroundć to sleep.
02:46I missus.
02:47Has everybody with a huge fanŠ½ŠµŠ³Š¾č¤ę°?
02:49Not great, no doubt.
02:51I missus.
02:52I missus.
02:53A huge bitch here.
02:55It's like the Blind Eggs from Air Avenue.
02:56I love her father standing in the back part Bila
02:57is going over here.
02:58Yeah, my mum's given it to be like.
02:59As I asked, we wait for someone back,
03:00Congrats on taking the job at Banneker.
03:08How are you liking it so far?
03:09It is good to be working.
03:11I'm still adjusting to being home.
03:13And this place definitely has more atmosphere than Orphe Jeans,
03:17but it's not exactly private.
03:19Well, private enough for us to get to know each other better.
03:23And Orphe Jeans is a vibe.
03:24Many love stories have bloomed in those booths.
03:27When I was working for Nicole,
03:29she told me that her parents have had more late nights there
03:31than any fancy hangout in B.C.
03:35Well, if it's good enough for the senator and the diva.
03:37Downright iconic.
03:39Note to self, do not sleep on Orphe Jeans.
03:42Exactly.
03:42Look, I have had dreams about that rib platter.
03:46Oh.
03:47Also noted.
03:49And full disclosure, I grew up on Orphe Jeans.
03:52Yeah, my brothers and I squeezed into those booths,
03:54mouths watering, so excited we could barely contain ourselves
03:57because we were about to be fed.
03:58Kind of like how I feel right now.
04:05Let's get closer, closer to...
04:08Yeah.
04:09Don't stop on my account.
04:12I was just messing.
04:14I didn't know you were an articulate stand.
04:16I didn't know you knew stand.
04:18Yeah, Samantha keeps me up with what all the kids are saying.
04:21Generally after they've stopped saying it, but I try.
04:26Anita the Great graced us with her presence yesterday,
04:28and I am still trying to come down.
04:30You've known Anita forever.
04:33Since when were you starstruck?
04:35Since always.
04:36But seeing her after the reunion hits different.
04:38I just wish I had my concert program on me
04:40so she can sign her autograph next to Tracy and Sharon's.
04:43Well, I'd offer to hook you up,
04:45but my former mother-in-law is no longer taking my calls.
04:50I'm sure my path will cross with Queen Anita again.
04:53Is everything all right with Anita?
04:57She doesn't come here normally to visit Nicole, but...
05:02Well, she came to her this time.
05:05Well, glad everything is okay.
05:08You know, I still feel like the Dupree's our family.
05:11I wish everything good for them,
05:12even though the feeling may not be mutual.
05:15The Dupree's seem as good as they are fancy,
05:18and I bet there's still a lot more love there than you think.
05:20Now, enough stalling.
05:24I deserve an update on your almost sparring partner.
05:27Carlton?
05:28Eva's got us running like trains.
05:30I've barely even seen him.
05:31Well, you can't keep that up forever.
05:34We can during this cooling-off period.
05:38Sticking with the high road,
05:39leaving the nurses high and dry.
05:41We don't get to see you in Carlton, throw down.
05:44And I don't get to see you take your turn as ring girl.
05:48I mean, announcer.
05:50I promised you I'd work on my behavior,
05:52and I'm trying my damnedest to make my work good again.
05:56Well, we are making progress.
05:59Dr. Nate's dial 241.
06:09Dana, are you all right?
06:11Is it Eva?
06:12It's not Eva.
06:13It's Peaches.
06:14It's Peaches.
06:14First date, start off slow.
06:23You know, what books are you reading?
06:25What movies are you streaming?
06:26What are you looking for in a relationship?
06:29Not a deep dive into my last hookup.
06:31Well, we'll get to those.
06:34But first, I want to know who's on your radar now that you've given up the ghost, i.e. your sister's man.
06:42Half-sister.
06:42I like direct.
06:45Maybe a girl wants to hold on to a little mystery.
06:49I'm not ready to reveal the identity of my new love interest.
06:54Okay.
06:56Well, how about I guess?
06:57You tell me when I'm getting colder or harder.
06:59Well, you are definitely getting hotter.
07:01But go ahead.
07:04Shoot your shot.
07:07Mystery man or mystery woman?
07:10Mm.
07:11You think it's like that?
07:12I don't assume.
07:13I'm here to find out how wide-ranging your tastes are.
07:17Well, he's definitely all man.
07:21Tell me about him.
07:23Well, he's got serious drip.
07:26He's no stranger to the gym, so he's not hiding under baggy clothes.
07:31Check.
07:33He's confident.
07:35Bordering on cocky.
07:37Let's see.
07:38Never felt the sting of imposter syndrome.
07:41Never been much for bowing down, so check again.
07:45And he is fine as hell.
07:49That makes the trifecta.
07:54There are a ton of brothers in the DMV who can check my boxes.
07:58What makes you so sure that I'm not talking about one of them?
08:02No doubt you could have your pick, since you are the trifecta as well.
08:08You want to know why I'm in with a chance?
08:10Why?
08:11I do not see any of those other brothers here right now.
08:21How about we let Dad work, and us three, we get some frisbee time?
08:26What?
08:27That's a compromise?
08:28What?
08:29That's a compromise?
08:30We used to chase that thing around in the park all the time.
08:33When we were into Spongebob and Samantha was obsessed with Bratstones.
08:37I like the way you're thinking, but it's November in DC.
08:40It's like 40 degrees.
08:41We would throw the football around every Thanksgiving.
08:45And what's the scarves and gloves and those puffy coats for?
08:49They're there to make us look good.
08:51Poppy and I were more indoor cats.
08:53I'm trying here.
08:55How's this?
08:56Let's abandon frozen frisbee time and get our freeze on at Orphe jeans.
09:02Milkshake break?
09:03What about your assignment?
09:05It'll keep.
09:06Listen, I know that you hate this, but we love you.
09:11That's what this is about.
09:13A milkshake's not a phone.
09:15And I'd rather stay home.
09:17I just jumped off in the middle of my game.
09:19Since when have you turned down Orphe jeans?
09:21Since Jessica's on her way over here.
09:25To study.
09:26I told you about this last night, remember?
09:29Yeah, she can join us at Orphe jeans.
09:32We'll get you your own table.
09:34Because there's no way we're leaving you alone with her.
09:37Thanks a lot, sis.
09:39My pleasure.
09:43Okay, I'll fess up.
09:45Both pieces of cobbler are for me.
09:48Well, it's good to know you're not perfect.
09:52I have a recipe for my big mama that you could give to Anita.
09:56It replaces the sugar with honey.
09:58Now you're sending me to my death.
10:01My big mama's cobbler is much healthier.
10:03If Rowena or Anita caught me with somebody else's cobbler in the oven, screams would reverberate all over Fairmont Crest.
10:13It would be tantamount to adultery.
10:16Oh.
10:17Besides, I'd hate to lose my status as the mayor of Orphe jeans.
10:23Mmm.
10:24Nah.
10:25We wouldn't want that.
10:28Keep your chin up, June.
10:33Yes, sir.
10:36Oh!
10:37Senator Dupree!
10:38Sorry, wasn't looking where I was going.
10:40You're friends with my great grandson, aren't you?
10:43Yes, sir.
10:44I'm Jessica.
10:45Oh.
10:46Nice to see you again.
10:47Huh.
10:48Hello there, Jessica.
10:52If you're looking for Tyrell, he hasn't been around today.
10:55Oh, he just texted me.
10:57He's on the way over with Smith and Dad's.
10:59Hmm.
11:00You're usually lit up like a Christmas tree when you're about to see my, that cute boy of ours.
11:08But you look like one of those bulbs has gone out and you're trying to figure out which one is short-circuiting.
11:15If you want to talk about it, the mayor just told me I'm a great listener.
11:20That's really sweet of you.
11:22It's just...
11:24Listen.
11:34What's going on with Peaches?
11:36The idea of the only mother that I have ever known and laid up in that hospital bed.
11:42I can't...
11:43Oh, okay.
11:44Yes, she's been admitted.
11:45What are her symptoms?
11:47Um, she's shortness of, of breath and swollen legs.
11:53And those are all signs of her heart giving out, Ted.
11:56What?
11:57I can't lose.
11:58I can't lose.
11:59They can be, but that doesn't mean that they are.
12:01I can't.
12:02I can't lose it, Ted.
12:04Don't go there.
12:05Don't go there.
12:06But you know she's got a death sentence.
12:08I mean, it's like time is just speeding up.
12:10We don't know that yet.
12:12Look, let's get some facts and see what's going on.
12:14Shanice, can you pull Peaches' chart, please?
12:16Of course.
12:17Dr. Richardson.
12:18Okay.
12:19Here she is.
12:20She's in cardiac ICU.
12:22The attendings, Dr. Wilkes.
12:23Ah.
12:24Dr. McBride was the best surgeon in the DMV.
12:29Rest his soul.
12:31Now you're telling me that Peaches has to have some runner-up?
12:35Your mother is in excellent hands.
12:38I want to hear what the doctor has to say.
12:41Shanice is right.
12:43Dr. Wilkes is well-versed in the latest procedures and treatment options.
12:48I would trust him with my own mother's heart.
12:54Sorry.
12:55I need to check on a patient.
12:56Shanice can...
12:57I've got this.
12:58Okay.
12:59All right.
13:00I'm sending alerts to Dr. Wilkes that Peaches' family needs to speak with him.
13:05You'll feel a lot more comfortable after you meet him.
13:07Maybe my words got drowned out by the fluttering of those fake lashes before.
13:13But if I wanted your opinion, I would have asked for it.
13:26You got a lot going on.
13:28You're new to part of your family, new to your job.
13:31But it seems like you got everything under control.
13:34Plus, you got a lot of guys circling.
13:37But you're looking for the right man.
13:39Just like I'm looking for the right woman.
13:41The rest is luck.
13:43You feeling lucky?
13:45Right time.
13:47Right place.
13:49Right woman.
13:51Ooh!
13:52You are smooth.
13:55I'll give you that.
13:57What else will you give me, Eva?
13:59Whatever you get from me, Isaiah Hawthorne, you're gonna have to earn.
14:14Sorry about our date.
14:15The house isn't big enough for us and Samantha's pal.
14:26Our boy looks like he's in love.
14:29Could they be any cuter?
14:32Almost as cute as when we first fell for each other.
14:40I know that our role wasn't for the love first.
14:43Especially when you sat here nudging your brother to beg her for a second chance.
14:48It's not fair.
14:49Everyone's living their best lives while I'm grounded for the rest of mine.
14:53Have you ever heard of helicopter parents?
14:55Well, my dads are like drone dads now.
14:57This too shall pass.
15:00There are worse things in the world than having two dads who care.
15:05I'll take these.
15:08Milkshakes to start?
15:10With whipped cream and cherries?
15:11Is there any other way?
15:14I will put our order in.
15:16Hey.
15:21How's your day going?
15:26Better now.
15:29Strawberry with whipped cream and cherries for Samantha.
15:35Cookies and cream for Tyrell.
15:38You got it.
15:39Yes.
15:40I can remember their order.
15:42Now for you and Martin.
15:44Martin will have strawberry.
15:46Same toppings.
15:47And I will do chocolate.
15:49And it looks like Tyrell might need an extra straw.
15:54Got it.
15:56Uh, hey wait.
15:58What'd I forget?
16:00I forgot to thank you.
16:04For taking your order?
16:06For saving my family.
16:12How was she?
16:13How do you think?
16:14She's really sick.
16:16Well, I'm here if there's anything you need.
16:19What I need is for Peaches to get out of that hospital bed and back on her feet.
16:24Not looking all pale and wheezing and looking like she's about to go to the next life.
16:30Because she's tired of living in this one.
16:33Okay?
16:34So your question was just uncalled for and unnecessary.
16:37I am just doing my job.
16:39No need to get your back all up.
16:41I will get my back wherever the hell I please.
16:45Excuse me?
16:47I have paid this hospital a hefty check.
16:51One that can buy me the kind of respect that I demand from people like you.
16:57No one buys me.
16:58Nurse Johnson.
16:59I can take it from here.
17:01Miss Thomas, I'm Dr. Wilkes.
17:02Oh yeah, I know who you are.
17:03Where were you?
17:05My mother is in distress.
17:06Sorry, there was an emergency in that.
17:08Oh, with a more important patient?
17:09Someone who's probably a friend of the hospital?
17:11Yeah?
17:12So special.
17:13Treat all my patients equally.
17:15Bad answer.
17:16We all know how it really works around here, don't we?
17:19So I'll tell you what I expect, doctor.
17:22I expect VIP for Peaches, okay?
17:26VIP treatment.
17:27And I need you to tell me every single thing that you are going to do to help the only mother that I have ever known.
17:36I believe in putting in the work.
17:41I'm going to enjoy getting to know you, Eva Thomas, if you will allow me to honor.
17:46It's not every day I come across somebody this fine and this worth knowing.
17:50It's a nice talk.
17:52But there are some questions that can only be answered through actions.
17:57Do I have permission to act?
17:59So we've been managing her condition since the initial diagnosis, but this morning she presented with an acute exacerbation of congestive heart failure.
18:09The leg swelling and the difficulty breathing, those are symptoms which we're currently working to mitigate.
18:26So you're saying she's getting worse.
18:28So what are you going to do about that?
18:30Well, we're currently giving her an IV of furosemide.
18:33That should help take down the swelling and allow her to breathe better.
18:36She'll be with us for a few days until she's hopefully stable again.
18:40Okay, so you just hang a bag of medicine and just send her on home.
18:45That isn't a cure doctor.
18:48And are you in any of those big time medical journals that have been published like Doug McBride?
18:56Yeah, I am actually.
18:57Feel free to look up my credentials.
18:59I want the best doctor that money can buy.
19:02I am the customer and the customer is always right.
19:06And this customer wants another opinion.
19:09With all due respect, Ms. Thomas, this isn't a shopping mall.
19:12Medications and lifestyle modifications can greatly improve the outcome of Peach's condition.
19:18And I'm happy to help you go over all of her options.
19:21And I encourage you, please, get a third opinion.
19:25I'm afraid they're going to tell you what I just did.
19:34Lashing out at the people taking care of her is not the move.
19:37That's like spitting at the waiter right before he goes to get your order.
19:40Nerses are supposed to anticipate, right?
19:43So you can't see that your little nosy bedside manner is getting on my last good nerve.
19:49Aren't you supposed to be somewhere wiping somebody's dirty?
19:52You know what, listen. I am not the one or the two.
19:54And what I won't stand for is you coming up in my hospital insulting my staff.
19:58Now, Dr. Wilkes is more qualified than any of those wigs or personas you have.
20:02I hope you feel good about yourself because all those little words, oh yeah, we're going to make sure that you regret them.
20:12You know what?
20:13I don't have time for this.
20:15Maybe your money will get me in trouble, but until it does, I'm going to deliver every single one of my patients a hundred percent.
20:21No matter who their play daughter is.
20:25At the risk of signing conceding, I'm going to say that was one for the books.
20:41It was alright.
20:43You don't know your power, do you?
20:47You can take a guy to the highest of heights and pierce his ego in seconds.
20:50I could have sworn that ego was skill-proof and fire-tested.
20:54Not after that kiss.
20:56But if I didn't bring it for you.
20:59That look on your face. You know I felt it.
21:04But points off for not letting the kiss speak for itself.
21:07And the way you deflect compliments makes me think you haven't had nearly enough.
21:11I'll judge when I've had enough.
21:13Well maybe you need to sample the goods again so you can make an informed choice.
21:18Sorry, Mama. You were saying?
21:28When somebody's persistent.
21:32An understatement of the century.
21:35I think you should get it.
21:38Hey, Mama. I have that thing I was talking about, remember?
21:47Baby, I'm at the hospital. It's Peaches.
21:50Mama, no. Is she?
21:54You're the Samantha whisperer.
21:57Is it horrible that I don't mind seeing her be just a little bit of a brat?
22:04It lets me know that I didn't ruin her.
22:07That she's still a kid. Not some careful little adult I turned her into.
22:12Tyrell, too.
22:15You didn't ruin anything.
22:18You gave us a gift and for that I will be forever grateful.
22:22My debt to you and Martin is bone deep.
22:25I was scared when you came back into their lives.
22:30You weren't sure if I was going to be a danger to them.
22:33No, I knew that you would turn your life around.
22:37I was afraid that they would love you more than us because you were their real parent.
22:45Blood doesn't make you a parent.
22:49Love does.
22:51Care does.
22:53You and Martin are their fathers in every sense that matters.
22:58And that's not going to change.
23:01Not because I showed up.
23:03And definitely not because of a spat you had over some trifling little boy.
23:08I couldn't wrap my head around how you couldn't pull yourself together
23:15when you had these two beautiful souls as your inspiration.
23:19I asked myself that a million times.
23:22That was wrong of me.
23:25The courage that you had to let them go.
23:31When I look at them, I know I got that right.
23:36They're on the verge of doing things I never could have led them to.
23:41Not just the big fancy name schools or modeling,
23:46but the fine young man and young woman they are becoming.
23:50You and Martin did that.
23:55And thank you for showing us that we were never in any danger of losing them to you.
24:01And also thank you for everything that you've added to all of our lives.
24:08You've got to stop talking now or I'm going to be crying into those milkshakes.
24:17I just want you to know that Tyrell and Samantha are exactly where they're supposed to be.
24:25I'm never going to get in the way of that.
24:32Grandad.
24:33Martin?
24:34You got a second?
24:35Of course.
24:36Well, it's official.
24:37We're deep in college mode.
24:39I got a text from Isaiah Hawthorne and he's going to stop by the Brownstone and talk to Tyrell about Banneker.
24:45Oh, that's wonderful news.
24:47Listen, I hate to cut this short, but I'm already late for a Winterfest sponsorship meeting.
24:55It never ends, does it?
24:56Talk to you later.
24:57Okay.
24:58Yeah.
24:59I've got to thank your dads.
25:00It's the least they can do for ruining our date.
25:01I would have ruined it anyway.
25:16What's up?
25:17I can't sit with the parentals one minute longer.
25:20That doesn't mean you can sit with us.
25:22Tyrell.
25:23I don't see what you see in my bro.
25:25I don't see what's going on with you.
25:26I mean, it's like you got the guy mixed up with someone you hate instead of the hero he is.
25:31You think he's capable of leaping over anything in a single bound?
25:34Jessica, don't bother.
25:36Samantha's been buffering in witch mode since the Nathan incident.
25:40The Nathan incident?
25:43You told her?
25:44I would have found out either way.
25:46What?
25:47Yeah, if you lost your V card to Nathan, he would have posted it all over his socials.
25:52He wouldn't.
25:53You didn't tell her?
25:55I didn't want to hurt her feelings.
25:57What?
25:58What's going on?
26:00On Halloween we ran into Nathan.
26:02He was blabbing on the phone about how he was this close to scoring with you, only you got grounded.
26:07And then your super bro stepped up and nearly challenged him to a duel.
26:11So trust me, you dodged a major creep.
26:14Why didn't you tell me?
26:16I was hoping you'd forget about him before you were ungrounded.
26:21He's not worthy.
26:22And plus, no one gets to insult my sister except, well, me.
26:29You and our favorite waitress looked heavy.
26:33What's up?
26:34Overdue.
26:35But I get it now.
26:39Mike got it when Samantha ran to her when she was upset about the Chelsea Cat situation.
26:45And she's not trying to steal our kids?
26:47Sounds dumb when you say it out loud.
26:51But, yeah.
26:52I am ready to accept June as part of our kids' lives.
26:57And part of our family.
27:04Shouldn't we be at the hospital?
27:05Oh, the ICU is limiting her visitors so she can rest.
27:08She's sleeping now.
27:10Well, how bad is it?
27:12Well, they, uh, they're giving her medicine to alleviate the symptoms.
27:17Are we gonna stabilize her?
27:19But it's not enough.
27:21I mean, we've gotta give Peaches a miracle.
27:24And I'm talking about the kind that our money can buy.
27:26I mean, can you buy a new heart?
27:28What about one of those, uh, robotic ones?
27:32I mean, I'm not gonna lose her.
27:34I'm not, Eva.
27:36Mama, it's good to see you pouring all your love and trying to save her.
27:41Where do we start?
27:42Okay, I've been looking up specialists and there's a, a, um, a heart failure hospital.
27:48Oh, I've heard good things about Enova Fairfax.
27:51Yeah, but should we move her before this episode is over, though?
27:55Maybe we can bring a doctor to her?
27:59I mean, did you talk to them about drug trials yet?
28:02The, the science is advancing.
28:04There could be something that could extend her life even more than what they're offering at Garland.
28:09I think we need Ted.
28:11What? Why?
28:13How much does Ted know from all those years of practicing?
28:17As a plastic surgeon?
28:18He's a doctor, alright? And he's family. And I trust him.
28:22Mama!
28:23I trust him with Peaches. And he was very kind to me just now.
28:27Okay, asking this of him is too much. It's not even his specialty. And it would be better if you just...
28:33Okay, listen. If I ask Ted, he will want to help me, okay? End of discussion.
28:39Now, tell me all about your date.
28:43But Peaches...
28:45Baby, we have a game plan, alright? I will check on her as soon as ICU permits.
28:52Now, can you please start from the beginning? And don't you dare leave anything out.
28:59Okay, as you know, we started off at ORVG's, but that wasn't really fitting our vibe, and so he took me to Uptown. And then we hung. I felt like he could keep up. You know? Like whatever I said, he was right there. No slack. You know?
29:15Please tell me you did not leave that man's presence without sampling the goods.
29:21Well, we were interrupted.
29:24Lord, you cannot be my child. If you let that tenderona get out of there and you didn't get a proper smooch.
29:32Oh, we smooched. But it wasn't all that proper.
29:37Hey, did you lose a patient?
29:43No, I almost killed a patient's loved one.
29:46Dana.
29:48I am a professional. My bedside manner is the best. A little gossip, a little stern, a little fun. I am unshakable.
29:56But that lunatic of yours, she almost made me lose my religion and everything that makes me the best damn nurse in DC.
30:05So you were trying to tell me something before Samantha Zilla descended on us?
30:09That had to happen. Maybe she'll finally get over Nathan.
30:13I hope so. But don't leave me in suspense.
30:18I applied to UCLA.
30:21Oh, okay.
30:24What if I get in? My parents went there. And so did my dad's parents. It's like tradition.
30:32They can't make you go. I mean, if you don't want to. Is UCLA your dream, too?
30:39I don't know what I want. If I say no, it's like I'm spitting on my family's history.
30:46Plus, they have a killer theater program.
30:49So does Banneker.
30:51Yeah, I applied there, too.
30:53I applied to UCLA. But you know, staying close to home and close to my fam matters to me.
30:59Yeah. And making my parents proud matters to me.
31:03Right.
31:05Okay, so if you're here and I go off to LA, what does that mean for us? Is there even an us if we're that far apart?
31:15I hate to crash your study date, but we've got to kidnap Tyrell.
31:19We're kind of in the middle of something.
31:21Isaiah is meeting us at the house to talk to you about Banneker.
31:24It's a family friend who just started as an academic advisor there.
31:28It's fate. Or luck. Or at the very least something good. Isn't that cool?
31:34Yeah. So cool.
31:36There you go.
31:44Little trouble on the dismount.
31:54I wasn't trying to listen, but I can't help but hear. You're not going to break my boy's heart, are you?
32:11I don't want to break either of our hearts. I mean, I like him more than I've ever liked anyone.
32:16But Tyrell's dream school is Banneker. My parents' dream school for me is UCLA.
32:23Tyrell and his Juliet will be separated by 3,000 miles.
32:28My bestie and her boyfriend, they went to separate schools. They couldn't even last a Thanksgiving.
32:34I mean, Tyrell and I are so happy, but we are so new.
32:39What if it's better to just get out now before either of us gets really hurt?
32:46Tyrell, meet Isaiah Hawthorne.
32:49Always happy to meet a future Banneker lion.
32:51Thanks, Mr. Hawthorne.
32:53Call me Isaiah.
32:55Well, me and Smitty don't want to intrude, so we'll wait in the kitchen.
32:59Can we get you anything to drink, Isaiah?
33:01No, I'm good. Thank you.
33:03From what I hear, I'm in the presence of chess royalty.
33:08I do okay.
33:11Well, someone with your skills and grades would be a perfect fit for Banneker.
33:15You think so?
33:16Oh yeah, absolutely.
33:17But what's more important is if Banneker's a perfect fit for you.
33:20Before we get started, why don't you hit me with any questions you have before I give you my spiel?
33:25This is probably beyond the scope of what I'm supposed to ask.
33:28Lay it on me.
33:30My girlfriend might be going to UCLA.
33:34How am I supposed to make it work with her if I go to Banneker?
33:38I feel you, Tyrell.
33:40My girlfriend just dumped me.
33:42Oh man, that's tough.
33:45That's the thing about life.
33:46Endings, even the ones that gut you, can always lead to better beginnings.
33:55I hate Dana put you through that.
33:57I will talk her down.
33:58No need.
33:59I explained everything to my supervisor.
34:00I'll be fine.
34:01But just saying, no matter how much money she's slinging around, you're invaluable.
34:06I don't need you or anyone to referee for me.
34:08She's not the first difficult family member I've dealt with.
34:10I can see that.
34:11But you really are a force.
34:14Some may argue I'm too much of one.
34:17Well, they'd be wrong.
34:20I'll go check on Peaches.
34:21Ted.
34:22Yes?
34:23Do you want to tell me what it was?
34:24What do you mean?
34:25What you ever saw in Leslie.
34:27Tell me.
34:28Come on, tell me.
34:29Tell me.
34:30It was fire.
34:33But it was just a kiss.
34:34And I don't want to make too much of it.
34:35Oh, no.
34:36No, no.
34:37Girl, we are not going to jinx this.
34:38No.
34:39But, baby, you know us Thomas women, we do have good things happen to us, right?
34:44So tell me this.
34:45Was it good enough for you to wash Thomas all about your head?
34:54Thomas?
34:55Who?
34:56Okay.
34:57Look, okay, well, I have some things I have to do with you for you to wash all of your head.
34:58No.
34:59No.
35:00No.
35:01No.
35:02No.
35:03No.
35:04No.
35:05No.
35:06No.
35:07No.
35:08No.
35:09No.
35:10No.
35:11No.
35:12No.
35:13No.
35:14No.
35:15I have to handle for work, okay?
35:16All right.
35:17So, call me if anything changes,
35:19and let me know when I can see Peaches.
35:21I will, as soon as I see her,
35:24I will let you know, and I will give her your love.
35:27Okay, do that.
35:29Mm-hmm, will do.
35:30Bye, mama.
35:31Bye.
35:32Love you.
35:33I love you, baby.
35:45Oh, Eva.
35:49Eva!
35:55Now, you get on home, Vernon,
35:57before somebody sees us and gets the wrong idea.
36:00Especially my wife.
36:02Mm-hmm.
36:06Well, well, well.
36:08If it isn't Senator Dupree sneaking around
36:12with the wrong articulant.
36:15Delicious.
36:17Mm-hmm.
