00:00Who's the king now?
00:06What?
00:07I was just about to level up.
00:09It's not fun when someone steals from you, is it?
00:11I didn't know who stole my last Greek yogurt, but it had to be you.
00:15You know we can't dip without it.
00:16I ate the yogurt.
00:18I wanted to avoid an energy lag.
00:20I'll go to the store later.
00:22Why didn't you just say so, Dad?
00:23It's hard to get a word in with World War siblings going on.
00:27Hey, I can hear you guys yelling from outside.
00:30Samantha's escalating about a missing yogurt into the Hunger Games.
00:34That's not true.
00:35She's triggered all the time.
00:37I'm the only one banned from screens while the rest of you live your best digital lives.
00:41It's literally a slow and painful death.
00:43If you were literally dying, all your organs would be shutting down.
00:47And then you'd be going pale.
00:49Palomortis.
00:50Then, liver mortis.
00:52All your blood flows down to your lower parts of your body.
00:55And finally, rigor mortis.
00:57All your muscles stiffen up.
00:58We get it.
00:59We get it.
01:00Ew.
01:01In all my years coming here, I've never.
01:07What's her problem?
01:09I messed up another order.
01:12No need to bite your head off.
01:14It's food.
01:16Delicious food.
01:17But it's not a matter of life or death for the customer.
01:20Hm.
01:21In this case, it was.
01:23Her husband's got high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes.
01:26I handed him a plate of death.
01:29Someone else's mother pork chops, candied yams, potato salad.
01:33Instead of the low salt salmon croquettes and side salad, she ordered off the healthy menu.
01:38What if I sent her husband to ICU?
01:41That woman would have never let that food pass his lips.
01:45It's human nature to make mistakes.
01:47Hm?
01:48It should be human nature to be graceful in the face of them.
01:51Especially when someone expresses remorse.
01:54Hm.
01:55Making mistakes has gotten way too natural for me.
01:58I almost got fired once already.
02:00Spirit's a big part of the job.
02:03Yours is megawatt.
02:05Hm.
02:06It makes up for a lot.
02:09You're the kindest.
02:11Now, what can I do for you?
02:15Two pieces of peach cobbler to go.
02:18Again?
02:20That's twice a week on the regular.
02:24You and the missus are developing quite a sweet tooth.
02:27Thanks for coming.
02:29Cheers.
02:30Bye.
02:31Bye.
02:32Bye.
02:33Bye.
02:41Bye.
02:54Bye.
02:55Bye.
02:56Bye.
02:57Congrats on taking the job at Banneker.
03:03How are you liking it so far?
03:04It is good to be working.
03:06I'm still adjusting to being home.
03:08And this place definitely has more atmosphere than Orphe Jeans,
03:12but it's not exactly private.
03:15Private enough for us to get to know each other better.
03:18And Orphe Jeans is a vibe.
03:19Many love stories have bloomed in those booths.
03:22When I was working for Nicole,
03:24she told me that her parents have had more late nights there
03:26than any fancy hangout in B.C.
03:30Well, if it's good enough for the senator and the diva.
03:32Downright iconic.
03:34Note to self, do not sleep on Orphe Jeans.
03:37Exactly.
03:37Look, I have had dreams about that rib platter.
03:41Oh.
03:43Also noted.
03:44And full disclosure, I grew up on Orphe Jeans.
03:47Yeah, my brothers and I squeezed into those booths,
03:49mouths watering, so excited we could barely contain ourselves
03:52because we were about to be fed.
03:55Kind of like how I feel right now.
03:56Let's get closer, closer, too.
04:03Ah, don't stop on my account.
04:07I'm just messing.
04:09I didn't know you were on Articulate Stand.
04:11I didn't know you knew Stand.
04:13Yeah, Samantha keeps me up with what all the kids are saying.
04:16Generally after they've stopped saying it, but I try.
04:19Anita the Great graced us with her presence yesterday,
04:23and I am still trying to come down.
04:26You've known Anita forever.
04:28Since when were you starstruck?
04:30Since always.
04:31But seeing her after the reunion hits different.
04:33I just wish I had my concert program on me
04:35so she can sign her autograph next to Tracy and Sharon's.
04:38Well, I'd offer to hook you up, but my former mother-in-law
04:42is no longer taking my calls.
04:45I'm sure my path will cross with Queen Anita again.
04:49Hmm.
04:50Is everything all right with Anita?
04:52She doesn't come here normally to visit Nicole, but...
04:57Well, she came to her this time.
04:59Hmm.
05:00Mm-hmm.
05:01Well, glad everything is okay.
05:03You know, I still feel like the Duprees are family.
05:05I wish everything good for them,
05:07even though the feeling may not be mutual.
05:10The Duprees seem as good as they are fancy,
05:13and I bet there's still a lot more love there than you think.
05:17Now, enough stalling.
05:19I deserve an update on your almost sparring partner.
05:22Carlton?
05:23Eva's got us running like trains.
05:25I've barely even seen him.
05:26Well, you can't keep that up forever.
05:29We can during this cooling-off period.
05:32Ah, sticking with the high road,
05:34leaving the nurses high and dry.
05:36We don't get to see you in Carlton, throw down.
05:39And I don't get to see you take your turn as ring girl.
05:43I mean, announcer.
05:45I promised you I'd work on my behavior,
05:47and I'm trying my damnedest to make my word good again.
05:51Oh, well, we are making it to progress.
05:54Dr. Yates, dial 241.
06:04Dana, are you all right? Is it Eva?
06:07It's not Eva. It's Peaches.
06:15First date, start off slow.
06:18You know, what books are you reading?
06:20What movies are you streaming?
06:21What are you looking for in a relationship?
06:24Not a deep dive into my last hookup.
06:26Well, we'll get to those.
06:29But first,
06:31I want to know who's on your radar
06:32now that you've given up the ghost,
06:35i.e. your sister's man.
06:37Half-sister.
06:39I like direct.
06:40Maybe a girl wants to hold on to a little mystery.
06:44I'm not ready to reveal the identity
06:46of my new love interest.
06:48Okay.
06:51Well, how about I guess?
06:52Can you tell me when I'm getting colder or harder?
06:54Mm.
06:55Well, you are definitely getting hotter.
06:58But go ahead.
06:59Shoot your shot.
07:02Mystery man or mystery woman?
07:05Mm.
07:06You think it's like that?
07:07I don't assume.
07:09I'm here to find out how wide-ranging your tastes are.
07:11Well, he's definitely our man.
07:16Tell me about him.
07:18Well, he's got serious drip.
07:21He's no stranger to the gym,
07:23so he's not hiding under baggy clothes.
07:26Check.
07:28He's confident.
07:30Bordering on cocky.
07:32Let's see.
07:33Never felt the sting of imposter syndrome.
07:36Never been much for bowing down,
07:38so check again.
07:39And he is fine as hell.
07:44And that makes the trifecta.
07:48There are a ton of brothers in the DMV
07:51who can check my boxes.
07:53What makes you so sure
07:55that I'm not talking about one of them?
07:57No doubt you could have your pick,
07:59since you are the trifecta as well.
08:03You want to know why I'm in with a chance?
08:05Why?
08:09I do not see any of those other brothers here right now.
08:13How about we let Dad work
08:18and us three, we get some frisbee time?
08:21What?
08:22That's a compromise?
08:24We used to chase that thing around in park all the time.
08:28When we were into SpongeBob
08:30and Samantha was obsessed with Bratstone.
08:32I like the way you're thinking,
08:33but it's November in D.C.
08:35It's like 40 degrees.
08:36We would throw the football around every Thanksgiving.
08:40And what's the scarves and gloves
08:42and those puffy coats for?
08:44They're there to make us look good.
08:47Poppy and I were more indoor cats.
08:49I'm trying here.
08:51How's this?
08:52Let's abandon frozen frisbee time
08:55and get our freeze on at Orphe jeans.
08:58Milkshake break?
08:59What about your assignment?
09:01It'll keep.
09:03Listen, I know that you hate this,
09:06but we love you.
09:07That's what this is about.
09:08A milkshake's not a phone.
09:10And I'd rather stay home.
09:12I just jumped off in the middle of my game.
09:14Since when have you turned down Orphe jeans?
09:17Since Jessica's on her way over here.
09:21To study.
09:21I told you about this last night, remember?
09:24Yeah, she can join us at Orphe jeans.
09:27We'll get you your own table.
09:29Because there's no way we're leaving you alone with her.
09:32Thanks a lot, sis.
09:35My pleasure.
09:38Okay, I'll fess up.
09:40Both pieces of cobbler are for me.
09:44Well, it's good to know you're not perfect.
09:47I have a recipe for my big mama
09:49that you could give to Anita.
09:51It replaces the sugar with honey.
09:54Now you're sending me to my death.
09:56My big mama's cobbler's much healthier.
09:58If Rowena or Anita
10:00caught me with somebody else's cobbler in the oven,
10:04screams would reverberate all over Fairmont Crest.
10:09It'd be tantamount to adultery.
10:11Oh.
10:12Besides, I'd hate to lose my status
10:16as the mayor of Orphe jeans.
10:18Mmm.
10:20Nah.
10:21We wouldn't want that.
10:27Keep your chin up, June.
10:29Yes, sir.
10:31Oh!
10:32Senator Dupree!
10:33Sorry, wasn't looking where I was going.
10:35You're friends with my great-grandson, aren't you?
10:38Yes, sir.
10:39I'm Jessica.
10:40Oh, nice to see you again.
10:44Huh.
10:45Hello there, Jessica.
10:47If you're looking for Tyrell,
10:49he hasn't been around today.
10:51Oh, he just texted me.
10:52He's on the way over with Samantha and Dads.
10:54You're usually lit up like a Christmas tree
10:59when you're about to see my...
11:01that cute boy of ours.
11:04But you look like one of those bulbs has gone out
11:07and you're trying to figure out
11:09which one is short-circuiting.
11:11If you want to talk about it,
11:13the mayor just told me I'm a great listener.
11:16That's really sweet of you.
11:18It's just...
11:19What's going on with Peaches?
11:31The idea of the only mother
11:33that I have ever known
11:35laid up in that hospital bed.
11:37I can't...
11:38Oh, okay.
11:39Yes, she's been admitted.
11:40What are her symptoms?
11:43She's shortness of breath,
11:45swollen legs,
11:47and those are all signs
11:50of her heart giving out, Ted.
11:51I can't lose.
11:53I can't lose.
11:54They can be,
11:55but that doesn't mean that they are.
11:57I can't lose, Ted.
11:58Don't go there.
11:59Don't go there.
12:01But you know she's got a death sentence.
12:03I mean, it's like time is just speeding up.
12:05We don't know that yet.
12:07Let's get some facts
12:08and see what's going on.
12:09Shanice, can you pull Peaches' chart, please?
12:11Of course, Dr. Richardson.
12:13Okay.
12:15Here she is.
12:16She's in cardiac ICU.
12:17The attendings, Dr. Wilkes.
12:19Ah.
12:20Dr. McBride
12:22was the best surgeon in the DMV.
12:25Rest his soul.
12:28Now you're telling me
12:29that Peaches has to have some runner-up?
12:31Your mother is in excellent hands.
12:34I want to hear what the doctor has to say.
12:37Shanice is right.
12:39Dr. Wilkes is well-versed
12:40in the latest procedures
12:41and treatment options.
12:44I would trust him with my own mother's heart.
12:49Sorry.
12:49I need to check on a patient.
12:51Shanice can...
12:51I've got this.
12:53Okay.
12:54All right.
12:54I'm sending alert to Dr. Wilkes
12:58that Peaches' family needs to speak with him.
13:00You'll feel a lot more comfortable
13:01after you meet him.
13:03Maybe my words got drowned out
13:05by the fluttering
13:06of those fake lashes before.
13:08But if I wanted your opinion,
13:12I would have asked for it.
13:22You've got a lot going on.
13:24You're new to part of your family,
13:25new to your job,
13:26but it seems like
13:28you've got everything under control.
13:30Plus, you've got a lot of guys circling,
13:33but you're looking for the right man,
13:35just like I'm looking for the right woman.
13:37The rest is luck.
13:38You feeling lucky?
13:41Right time.
13:42Right place.
13:45Right woman.
13:46Ooh.
13:47You are smooth.
13:50I'll give you that.
13:52What else will you give me, Eva?
13:56Whatever you get from me, Isaiah Hawthorne,
13:59you're going to have to earn.
14:01Sorry about our date.
14:10The house isn't big enough for us
14:12and Samantha's pal.
14:21Our boy looks like he's in love.
14:24Could they be any cuter?
14:25Almost as cute as when we first fell for each other.
14:35I know that our role wasn't for the love first,
14:38especially when you sat here
14:40nudging your brother to beg her for a second chance.
14:42It's not fair.
14:44Everyone's living their best lives
14:46while I'm grounded for the rest of mine.
14:48Have you ever heard of helicopter parents?
14:50Well, my dads are like drone dads now.
14:54This too shall pass.
14:56There are worse things in the world
14:57than having two dads who care.
14:59I'll take these.
15:04Milkshakes to start?
15:05With whipped cream and cherries.
15:07Is there any other way?
15:09I will put our order in.
15:16Hey.
15:18How's your day going?
15:21Better now.
15:24Strawberry with whipped cream and cherries
15:28for Samantha, cookies and cream for Tyrell.
15:33You got it.
15:34Yes.
15:35I can remember their order.
15:37Now for you and Martin.
15:39Um, Martin will have strawberry,
15:41same toppings,
15:42and I will do chocolate.
15:44And it looks like Tyrell might need an extra straw.
15:50Got it.
15:51Uh, hey, wait.
15:53What'd I forget?
15:54I forgot to thank you.
15:59For taking your order?
16:01For saving my family.
16:07How was she?
16:08How do you think?
16:09She's really sick.
16:10Well, I'm here if there's anything you need.
16:14What I need is for Peaches
16:15to get out of that hospital bed
16:18and back on her feet,
16:19not looking all pale and wheezing
16:22and looking like she's about to go to the next life
16:24because she's tired of living in this one, okay?
16:28So your question
16:29was just uncalled for
16:31and unnecessary.
16:33I am just doing my job.
16:34No need to get your back all up.
16:37I will get my back
16:38wherever the hell I please.
16:41Excuse me?
16:43I have paid this hospital a hefty check.
16:47One that can buy me the kind of respect
16:49that I demand from people like you.
16:52No one buys me.
16:54There's Johnson.
16:54I can take it from here.
16:56Miss Thomas, I'm Dr. Wilkes.
16:58Oh, yeah, I know who you are.
16:59Where were you?
17:00My mother is in distress.
17:02Sorry, there was an emergency.
17:03Oh, with a more important patient?
17:05Someone who's probably a friend of the hospital?
17:07Yeah, so special.
17:08Treat all my patients equally.
17:10Bad answer.
17:11We all know how it really works around here, don't we?
17:14So I tell you what I expect, doctor.
17:17I expect VIP for Peaches, okay?
17:21VIP treatment.
17:22And I need you to tell me
17:24every single thing that you are going to do
17:26to help the only mother that I have ever known.
17:33I believe in putting in the work.
17:37I'm going to enjoy getting to know you, Eva Thomas,
17:39if you will allow me to honor.
17:42It's not every day I come across somebody this fine
17:44and this worth knowing.
17:46It's a nice talk.
17:48But there are some questions
17:50that can only be answered through actions.
17:52Do I have permission to act?
17:55So we've been managing her condition
18:12since the initial diagnosis,
18:13but this morning she presented
18:15with an acute exacerbation of congestive heart failure.
18:18The leg swelling and the difficulty breathing,
18:20those are symptoms which we're currently working to mitigate.
18:22So you're saying she's getting worse.
18:24So what are you going to do about that?
18:26Well, we're currently giving her an IV of furosemide.
18:28That should help take down the swelling
18:30and allow her to breathe better.
18:32She'll be with us for a few days
18:33until she's hopefully stable again.
18:36Okay, so you just hang a bag of medicine
18:39and just send her on home.
18:41That isn't a cure, doctor.
18:44And are you in any of those big-time medical journals
18:48that have been published like Doug McBride?
18:51Yeah, I am actually.
18:52And feel free to look up my credentials.
18:54I want the best doctor that money can buy.
18:57I am the customer,
18:59and the customer is always right,
19:01and this customer wants another opinion.
19:04With all due respect, Ms. Thomas,
19:06this isn't a shopping mall.
19:08Medications and lifestyle modifications
19:10can greatly improve the outcome of Peach's condition,
19:13and I'm happy to help you go over all of her options.
19:16And I encourage you, please,
19:18get a third opinion.
19:19And I'm afraid they're going to tell you
19:21what I just did.
19:29Lashing out at the people taking care of her
19:31is not the move.
19:32That's like spitting at the waiter
19:34right before he goes to get your order.
19:36Nurses are supposed to anticipate, right?
19:39So you can't see that your little nosy bedside manner
19:42is getting on my last good nerve.
19:45Aren't you supposed to be somewhere
19:47wiping somebody's dirty?
19:47You know what, listen.
19:48I am not the one or the two,
19:50and what I won't stand for
19:51is you coming up in my hospital
19:52insulting my staff.
19:54Now, Dr. Wilkes is more qualified
19:56than any of those wigs or personas you have.
19:58I hope you feel good about yourself
20:01because, uh, all those little words,
20:05oh, yeah, we're going to make sure
20:06that you regret them.
20:08You know what?
20:09I don't have time for this.
20:11Maybe your money will get me in trouble,
20:12but until it does,
20:14I'm going to deliver every single one
20:16of my patients 100%,
20:17no matter who their play daughter is.
20:19At the risk of signing conceded,
20:35I'm going to say that was one for the books.
20:37It was all right.
20:40You don't know your power, do you?
20:42You can take a guy to the highest of heights
20:44and pierce his ego in seconds.
20:46I could have sworn that ego
20:47was skill-proof and fire-tested.
20:49Not after that kiss.
20:51But if I didn't bring it for you...
20:54The look on your face.
20:57You know I felt it.
20:59But points off for not letting the kiss
21:01speak for itself.
21:02And the way you deflect compliments
21:04makes me think you haven't had nearly enough.
21:07I'll judge when I've had enough.
21:09Well, maybe you need to sample the goods again
21:10so you can make a performed choice.
21:12Sorry, Mama.
21:21You were saying?
21:25Then somebody's persistent.
21:27An understatement of the century.
21:31I think you should get it.
21:32Hey, Mama.
21:39I have that thing I was talking about, remember?
21:42Baby, I'm at the hospital.
21:44It's Peaches.
21:46Mama, no.
21:47Is she...
21:48You're the Samantha Whisperer.
21:53Is it horrible that I don't mind
21:55seeing her be just a little bit of a brat?
21:59It lets me know that I didn't ruin her.
22:02That she's still a kid.
22:04Not some careful little adult
22:06I turned her into.
22:09Tyrell, too.
22:09You didn't ruin anything.
22:13You gave us a gift
22:14and for that I will be forever grateful.
22:17My debt to you and Martin is bone deep.
22:20I was scared
22:21when you came back into their lives.
22:25You weren't sure
22:26if I was going to be a danger to them.
22:29No, I knew
22:29that you would turn your life around.
22:33I was afraid
22:34that they would
22:36love you
22:37more than us
22:38because you were their real parent.
22:42Blood doesn't make you a parent.
22:45Love does.
22:47Care does.
22:49You and Martin
22:50are their fathers
22:51in every sense that matters.
22:54And that's not going to change.
22:56Not because I showed up.
22:59And definitely not because of a spat
23:01you had over some trifling little boy.
23:04I couldn't wrap my head around
23:06and how you couldn't
23:09pull yourself together
23:10when you had these two beautiful souls
23:12as your inspiration.
23:14I asked myself that
23:16a million times.
23:18That was wrong of me.
23:20The courage that you had
23:22to let them go.
23:24When I look at them
23:28I know I got that right.
23:32They're on the verge
23:33of doing things
23:34I never could have led them to.
23:36Not just
23:37the big fancy name schools
23:40or modeling
23:40but the fine young man
23:43and young woman
23:44they are becoming.
23:45you and Martin did that.
23:51And thank you
23:52for showing us
23:53that we were never
23:54in any danger
23:55of losing them
23:56to you.
23:57And also thank you
23:59for everything
24:01that you've added
24:01to all of our lives.
24:05You've got to stop talking now
24:07or I'm going to be crying
24:09into those milkshakes.
24:10I just want you to know
24:15that Tyrell and Samantha
24:17are exactly
24:19where they're supposed to be.
24:21I'm never going to get
24:22in the way of that.
24:27Grandad.
24:28Marja?
24:29You got a second?
24:30Of course.
24:32Well, it's official.
24:33We're deep in college mode.
24:35I got a text from
24:36Isaiah Hawthorne
24:37and he's going to stop
24:38by the Brownstone
24:39and talk to Tyrell
24:40about Banneker.
24:41Oh, that's wonderful news.
24:44Listen, I hate to cut this short
24:46but I'm already late
24:48for a Winterfest sponsorship meeting.
24:51It never ends, does it?
24:52Talk to you later.
24:54Okay.
25:03Yeah, I've got to thank your dads.
25:06It's the least they can do
25:07for ruining our date.
25:08I would have ruined it anyway.
25:11What's up?
25:13I can't sit with the parentals
25:14one minute longer.
25:16That doesn't mean
25:16you can sit with us.
25:17Tyrell,
25:18I don't see what you see
25:19in my bro.
25:20I don't see what's going on
25:21with you.
25:22I mean, it's like you got
25:23the guy mixed up
25:23with someone you hate
25:24instead of the hero he is.
25:26You think he's capable
25:27of leaping over anything
25:28in a single bound?
25:29Jessica,
25:30don't bother.
25:32It's a man that's been
25:33buffering in witch mode
25:34since the Nathan incident.
25:35The Nathan incident?
25:38You told her?
25:39I would have found out
25:40either way.
25:41What?
25:43Yeah, if you lost your V-card
25:44to Nathan,
25:45he would have posted it
25:45all over his socials.
25:47He wouldn't.
25:48You didn't tell her?
25:50I didn't want to hurt
25:51her feelings.
25:52What?
25:52What's going on?
25:55On Halloween,
25:56we ran into Nathan.
25:57He was blabbing
25:58on the phone
25:58about how he was
25:59this close to scoring
26:00with you,
26:01only you got grounded.
26:02And then your super bro
26:04stepped up
26:04and nearly challenged
26:05him to a duel.
26:06So trust me,
26:07you dodged a major creep.
26:09Why didn't you tell me?
26:11I was hoping you'd forget
26:12about him
26:13before you were ungrounded.
26:16He's not worthy.
26:18And plus,
26:18no one gets to
26:19insult my sister
26:20except, well,
26:22me.
26:22You and our favorite
26:26waitress
26:27looked heavy.
26:28What's up?
26:31Overdue.
26:32But I get it now.
26:35Mike got it
26:35when Samantha
26:36ran to her
26:37when she was upset
26:38about the Chelsea Cat situation.
26:40And she's not
26:41trying to steal our kids?
26:43It sounds
26:44dumb when you say it
26:45out loud,
26:46but yeah.
26:49I am ready
26:50to accept June
26:51as part of our
26:52kids' lives
26:53and part of our family.
26:58Shouldn't we be
26:59at the hospital?
27:00Oh, the ICU
27:01is limiting her visitors
27:03so she can rest.
27:04She's sleeping now.
27:05Well, how bad is it?
27:07Well,
27:08they, uh,
27:09they're given her medicine
27:10to alleviate the symptoms.
27:12Are we going to stabilize her?
27:15But it's not enough.
27:16I mean,
27:17we've got to give
27:17Peaches a miracle.
27:19And I'm talking about
27:20the kind that our money
27:21can buy.
27:22I mean,
27:22can you buy a new heart?
27:24What about one of those
27:25robotic ones?
27:27I mean,
27:28I'm not going to lose her.
27:30I'm not,
27:31Eva.
27:31Mama,
27:32it's good to see you
27:34pouring all your love
27:35and trying to save her.
27:36Where do we start?
27:38Okay,
27:38I've been looking up
27:39specialists
27:39and there's a,
27:40a, um,
27:41a heart failure hospital.
27:43Oh,
27:43I've heard good things
27:44about Inova Fairfax.
27:46Yeah,
27:46but should we move her
27:47before this episode
27:48is over, though?
27:50Maybe we can
27:51bring a doctor
27:53to her?
27:54I mean,
27:55did you talk to them
27:55about drug trials yet?
27:57The,
27:57the science is advancing.
27:59There could be something
28:00that could extend her life
28:01even more than what
28:03they're offering at Garland.
28:05I think we need Ted.
28:07What?
28:08Why?
28:09How much does Ted know
28:10from all those years
28:11of practicing?
28:12As a plastic surgeon?
28:14He's a doctor,
28:15all right?
28:15And he's family.
28:17And I trust him.
28:18Mama!
28:19I trust him with Peaches
28:20and he was very kind
28:22to me just now.
28:23Okay,
28:23asking this of him
28:24is too much.
28:25It's not even
28:25his specialty.
28:27And it would be better
28:28if you just...
28:28Okay, listen.
28:29If I ask Ted,
28:31he will want to help me,
28:32okay?
28:32End of discussion.
28:35Now,
28:36tell me all about your date.
28:39But Peaches...
28:40Baby,
28:41we have a game plan,
28:43all right?
28:44I will check on her
28:45as soon as ICU permits.
28:48Now,
28:49can you please
28:50start from the beginning?
28:51And don't you dare
28:52leave anything out.
28:55Okay,
28:56as you know,
28:57we started off
28:58at Orphe G's,
28:59but that wasn't
29:00really fitting our vibe
29:01and so he took me
29:01to Uptown.
29:03And then we hung.
29:04I felt like
29:05he could keep up,
29:06you know?
29:07Like, whatever I said,
29:08he was right there.
29:09No slack,
29:10you know?
29:10Mm.
29:12Please tell me
29:12you did not leave
29:13that man's presence
29:14without sampling
29:15the goods.
29:17Well,
29:17we were interrupted.
29:19Mm.
29:20Lord,
29:20you cannot be my child.
29:22if you let
29:23that tenderoni
29:24get out of there
29:25and you didn't
29:26get a proper smooch.
29:29Oh,
29:29we smooched,
29:31but it wasn't
29:32all that proper.
29:33Ooh.
29:33Did you lose a patient?
29:39No,
29:40I almost killed
29:40a patient's loved one.
29:43Dana.
29:45I am a professional.
29:46My bedside manner
29:47is the best.
29:48A little gossip,
29:50a little stern,
29:50a little fun.
29:51I am unshakable.
29:53That lunatic of yours,
29:54she almost made me
29:55lose my religion
29:55and everything
29:56that makes me
29:56the best damn nurse
29:57in D.C.
30:01So,
30:01you were trying
30:02to tell me something
30:02before Samantha Zilla
30:03descended on us?
30:05That had to happen.
30:06Maybe she'll finally
30:07get over Nathan.
30:08I hope so,
30:10but don't leave me
30:11in suspense.
30:14I applied to UCLA.
30:17Oh,
30:17okay.
30:19What if I get in?
30:21My parents went there.
30:23So did my dad's parents.
30:25It's like,
30:26tradition.
30:27They can't make you go.
30:29I mean,
30:29if you don't want to.
30:31Is UCLA your dream,
30:33too?
30:34I don't know
30:35what I want.
30:36If I say no,
30:38it's like I'm spitting
30:39on my family's history.
30:42Plus,
30:42they have a killer
30:43theater program.
30:45So does Banneker.
30:47Yeah,
30:47I applied there,
30:47too.
30:49I applied to UCLA.
30:51But you know,
30:52staying close to home
30:53and close to my fam
30:54matters to me.
30:55Yeah,
30:55and making my parents
30:57proud matters to me.
30:59Right.
31:01Okay,
31:02so,
31:03if you're here
31:04and I go off to LA,
31:06what does that mean for us?
31:07Is there even an us
31:08if we're that far apart?
31:09I hate to crash
31:11your study date,
31:12but we've got to
31:13kidnap Tyrell.
31:14We're kind of
31:15in the middle of something.
31:16Isaiah is meeting us
31:18at the house
31:18to talk to you
31:19about Banneker.
31:20It's a family friend
31:21who just started
31:22as an academic advisor there.
31:23it's fate
31:25or luck
31:26or at the very least
31:28something good.
31:29Isn't that cool?
31:30Yeah,
31:31so cool.
31:39There you go.
31:40A little trouble
31:53on the dismount.
31:58I wasn't
31:59trying to listen,
32:01but I can't help
32:02but hear.
32:04You're not going
32:04to break my boy's heart,
32:05are you?
32:06I don't want to break
32:07either of our hearts.
32:08I mean,
32:09I like him more
32:09than I've ever liked anyone.
32:12But Tyrell's dream school
32:14is Banneker.
32:15My parents' dream school
32:16for me is UCLA.
32:19Tyrell and his Juliet
32:20will be separated
32:21by 3,000 miles.
32:24My bestie
32:24and her boyfriend,
32:25they went to separate schools.
32:27They couldn't even
32:27last a Thanksgiving.
32:29I mean,
32:30Tyrell and I
32:30are so happy,
32:31but we are
32:32so new.
32:34What if it's better
32:35to just get out now
32:36before either of us
32:37gets really hurt?
32:41Tyrell,
32:42meet Isaiah Hawthorne.
32:44Always happy
32:45to meet a future
32:45Banneker lion.
32:47Thanks,
32:47Mr. Hawthorne.
32:48Call me Isaiah.
32:50Well,
32:51me and Smitty
32:51don't want to intrude,
32:52so we'll wait
32:53in the kitchen.
32:54Can we get you
32:55anything to drink, Isaiah?
32:56No, I'm good.
33:01From what I hear,
33:02I'm in the presence
33:02of chess royalty.
33:03I do okay.
33:06Well,
33:07someone with your skills
33:08and grades
33:08would be a perfect fit
33:09for Banneker.
33:10You think so?
33:11Oh yeah,
33:12absolutely.
33:13But what's more important
33:14is if Banneker's
33:14a perfect fit for you.
33:16Before we get started,
33:17why don't you hit me
33:18with any questions
33:18you have before
33:19I give you my spiel?
33:20This is probably
33:21beyond the scope
33:22of what I'm supposed
33:23to ask.
33:24Lay it on me.
33:27My girlfriend
33:28might be going
33:28to UCLA.
33:30How am I supposed
33:30to make it work
33:31with her
33:31if I go to Banneker?
33:33I feel you, Tyrell.
33:35My girlfriend
33:36just dumped me.
33:37Oh man,
33:38that's tough.
33:40That's the thing
33:41about life.
33:42Endings,
33:43even the ones
33:44that gut you,
33:45can always lead
33:45to better beginnings.
33:50I hate Dana
33:51to put you through that.
33:52I will talk her down.
33:53No need.
33:54I explained everything
33:55to my supervisor.
33:56I'll be fine.
33:57But just saying,
33:58no matter how much money
33:59she's slinging around,
34:00you're invaluable.
34:01I don't need you
34:02or anyone
34:02to referee for me.
34:03She's not the first
34:04difficult family member
34:05I've dealt with.
34:05I can see that.
34:07But you really
34:08are a force.
34:11Some may argue
34:11I'm too much of one.
34:13Well,
34:14they'd be wrong.
34:20I'll, uh,
34:21I'll go check on Peaches.
34:24Ted.
34:25Yes.
34:25Do you want to tell me
34:28what it was?
34:32What do you mean?
34:34What you ever saw
34:35in Leslie.
34:37Tell me.
34:37Come on, tell me.
34:38Tell me.
34:40It was fire.
34:42But it was just a kiss,
34:44and I don't want
34:44to make too much of it.
34:45Oh, no.
34:46No, no.
34:46Mm-mm.
34:47Girl, we are not
34:47going to jinx this.
34:49No.
34:50But, baby,
34:51you know,
34:51us Thomas women,
34:53we do have good things
34:54happen to us, right?
34:56So tell me this.
34:57Was it good enough
34:59for you to wash
35:00Thomas all up
35:01out your head?
35:03Thomas?
35:05Who?
35:06Okay.
35:07Yes.
35:08Look, okay,
35:09well,
35:09I have some things
35:10I have to handle
35:10for work, okay?
35:11All right.
35:12So call me
35:13if anything changes,
35:14and let me know
35:15when I can see Peaches.
35:16I will.
35:17As soon as I see her,
35:19I will let you know,
35:20and I will give her
35:21your love.
35:22Okay.
35:23Do that.
35:24Mm-hmm.
35:24Will do.
35:25Bye, Mama.
35:26Bye.
35:27Love you.
35:28I love you, baby.
35:41Eva.
35:44Eva!
35:45Now, you get on
35:52home, Vernon,
35:52before somebody
35:53sees us
35:54and gets the wrong idea.
35:56Especially my wife.
35:57Mm-hmm.
35:58Well, well, well.
36:04If it isn't
36:05Senator Dupree
36:06sneaking around
36:07with the wrong
36:08articulate.
36:11Delicious.
36:12Cheers.
