When she was good,
she was very, very good.

But when she was bad,
she was better.

That's me.

DANI:
We have got to get

everything back where it was.

There cannot be
one speck of evidence

that can be used against me.

I could have sworn
I set the security code

before we left, babe.

The alarm was off.

Yeah, the scratched picture.

The bottle of wine
obviously replaced.

BOTH:
Dani.

That bitch broke in here.

-Hey!
-Oops.

When the two of them
are gushing about

their perfect legendary
love affair,

then, boom!

I'll blow it all up.

Elon, it's good to see you.

-It's good to see you.
-[chuckling]

Thank you for squeezing me in
this morning.

Oh, anything for a good cause.

-Coffee?
-Please.

Now, before we jump in,
I need to catch up.

How's Darlene?

My wife is as sassy as ever.

Can't nothing slow
that woman down.

She's a full-time wife.

A full-time mother.
Full-time at dispatch.

She's been wearing that 911
dispatch headset for years.

Any talk of retirement?

I can't imagine Metro
without Darlene the dispatcher.

And Darlene can't imagine them
without her either.

[both laugh]

And the boys?

The boys haven't been boys
for a while.

Yeah, where does the time go?

Yeah, and we know
what Jacob's been up to.

Well, we can skip over
the wedding fiasco

-and Dani's arrest.
-Yeah.

He was torn up
about that one, Anita.

We understand Jacob is
a dedicated officer of the law.

And he did what he had to do

according to
his code of conduct.

My son is nothing
if not by the book, so...

He and Naomi are happy together
and thriving in their careers.

-That's what matters.
-Yes.

And Luke?

Forging his own way
in the department.

-Good for him.
-Yeah.

-We've both been blessed.
-Amen.

[Anita chuckles]

Well, let's get down
to business.

Okay.

I really appreciate
you getting involved

in the Fallen Officer Fund.

Oh, well, everyone
at the foundation is

really excited to participate.

-It's such a worthy charity.
-Good.

Send me an email about
who we should contact over there

regarding logistics,
and I'll pass it along.

Pass it along?

Oh, no, this is not a "set it up
and walk away" kind of meeting.

No, sir. You are getting
the Anita Dupree experience.

I plan to be hands-on.

This is the kind of work
that fills my soul.

You skipped out
so early this morning,

I figured you'd need to refuel.

You sure this is not my reward

for how I put it down
last night?

Jacob, stop.

All right,
enough of the chest beating.

Maybe I was just trying
to be a good wife.

Uh-huh. And I'm Michelle Obama.

Come here.

But for real? You good?

Can't hide anything from you,
now, can I, Detective?

No, you can't. So what's up?

It's about me taking

this sexual harassment case
against my dad's firm.

Look, I'm not sure
it's a good idea.

It's certain to bring out
a lot of media attention.

You like keeping things low-key.

Exactly.

Yeah, that's a tough one.

But remember,
the spotlight shines both ways.

What do you mean?

Well, your father's firm has
something to hide.

And some secrets deserve to be
brought out into the light.

[phone buzzing]

VANESSA:
Hmm, what's going on?

Got a hot side piece
I should know about?

Hotter than you?

Baby, you're my side piece,
appetizer and main course.

I have no room
for anything else.

How romantic.

[phone chimes]

[soul music playing]

It's the hospital.

I'm waiting on a new cardiac CT
to be delivered.

Ooh, sounds fancy.

State of the art?

Oh, you know it.

This bad boy can detect
heart problems

before they even pop up.

With images clear as an HDTV.

A machine like that could
put you out of business, Doug.

Then what would you do
with all your free time?

Well, spending time with
my beautiful wife, of course.

And driving her crazy 24-7.

I got to bounce.

Unsure when I'm gonna be home.

Love you.

Have fun with your new toy.

Oh.

Doug, you forgot your I.D.

Mrs. McBride.

Just the person I wanted to see.

♪ ♪

CHELSEA:
What's up, fam?

Just bodied that workout.

Shout-out to these leggings.
Don't we look snatched?

-Oh.
-Mm-mm.

[both laugh]

-That was cute.
-That was cute.

Uh-oh, these comments
are kind of wild.

Camel toe? Did this fool just--

Uh-uh. Okay, uh,
"Let's keep it cute.

We are here for the fits,
not the foolishness."

Ooh.

Damn, your followers got
no chill.

You should see my DMs.

Are they hype
about the purse line, at least?

I'm waiting for the right moment
to drop that bomb.

You better make it soon.

That luxury brand
keeps reaching out.

They want to collaborate.

But that's not
what we're about, Kat.

We are building our own

Black luxury
clothing empire, remember?

High-quality
but still accessible.

Mm-hmm. Plus I don't want
some wack-ass boomer brand

telling me what I can
and can't do on my own stream.

I feel that.

I just thought
I'd run it by you.

It's a big bag to turn down.

Well, ours is gonna be
way bigger.

Plus my follower count
went up 30%

since Mom went all Kill Bill.

Hold up.

If your social media's
popping off,

why aren't we using the extra
eyes to announce our purse line?

-Chelsea!
-Oh.

This madness has to stop.

You've got to quit stalling

and tell Aunt Dani
your modeling days are done.

[sighs]

WOMAN [over P.A.]:
Orderly to 211.

[groaning]:
Damn it!

Here, let me, let me help.

That cart came out of nowhere.

-I'm, like, mortified right now.
-Don't stress it.

So what brings a bougie lawyer
like you to our humble hospital?

Chasing ambulances?

[chuckles]
Just checking on a client.

Uh, h-how's the knee situation?

Want me to chase you down
some ice?

I think I'll live.
Just need a sec.

So what would Kat think
if she saw you playing

Captain Save-a-Chick
to some random woman?

Kat?

Oh, uh, we're not...

Actually,
I don't know what we are.

I-I guess we're just
hanging out.

Keeping it casual.

Is that right?

-Good to know.
-[over P.A.]: Nurse to room 818.

Joey Armstrong. May I join you?

-Actually,
I was just about to leave.
-This won't take long.

In that case,

what can I do for you,
Mr. Armstrong?

Well...

...I understand that you're
about the best there is

at what you do,

and I would like to request
your special services.

So, you can stand up to
a whole billion-dollar brand,

but you can't tell your own mom
you're switching up your career?

Make it make sense.

I know.
It's giving clown, isn't it?

You're supposed to be
this TikTok baddie.

Where is all of that energy?

Well, sometimes baddies
need help, Kat.

So either help or back off.

All right.

Practice on me.
I'll be Aunt Dani.

Okay.

Mom, I have something
to tell you,

and you're not gonna like it.

Oh, no, that's trash.

It sounds like somebody died.

Or you're preggo.
Yeah, don't start like that.

Maybe we should just
take things slow.

Like put it on ice for a bit.

You're joking, right?

Chelsea, I've been
busting my ass

to get this thing off
the ground.

I know, but--

I even missed my mom's
award ceremony.

And now you want to hit pause
'cause you're dodging

some awkward conversation
with your mom?

It's not just awkward, Kat.
Mom's going through it.

Oh, my bad. I forgot she's
the only one with feelings.

Well, you're wilding right now.

You don't know her struggle.

She's living
vicariously through me,

trying to relive her glory days.

She's lost Dad, her marriage.

Me modeling is all she has left.

This purse business is
the first step

towards your dream

of having your own
clothing line.

Don't let worrying
about Aunt Dani

send it into crash and burn.

I hear you.

I just can't hurt my mom.

Not right now.

So, what's really
holding you back?

My family just went through
a very public meltdown.

If I go against my father
in court now,

it'll reignite
the whole media circus.

And you're afraid the scandal
will overshadow the case itself.

I mean, there's no way
to avoid it.

The press would be all over

the "daughter versus
father" angle,

eager to dig up our family's
dirty laundry again.

And those brave women
who came forward,

their stories would get lost
in the noise.

That's a valid concern.

So what happens
if you don't do it?

These women could lose
their day in court

because none of the lawyers
they reached out to

want to go up against
scary Bill Hamilton.

So it's me or nobody.

Or is that hubris?

What do I do?

I can't tell you.

But there's someone who can.

And I spoke with Gabe,

and everything is set
at the club.

He's even giving us
a discount on the catering.

Amazing.

I might as well send the fund's
event manager on vacation.

Oh, don't you dare.

There's a lot of work to do.

There's invitations
and auction items

and booking a musical act and...

And you get my point.

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised

if we doubled the donations
from last year.

Doubled? I am aiming to set
an all-time record.

-And I'll do it, too.
-I know you will.

Nobody throws a party
like Anita Dupree.

-[laughing]: Preach.
-[phone chimes, buzzes]

Oh, Jacob needs to see me.

Mm.

I better get over
to the station.

All right, well,
I will reach out to Darlene.

We need to get a, uh,
in-laws brunch on the books.

Yeah. You know what?
You'll make her day.

She loves hearing
your Articulettes stories.

You know, Darlene puts on
your old records

and pretends she's in the group.
[chuckles]

But let's keep that
between us, okay?

Yeah.
What's a secret between friends?

Yeah. Yeah, right.

-Take care.
-Right.

-I'll see you soon.
-Looking forward to it.

[line rings]

Good morning.

The chief of police just left.

Correct.

And I ran the ideas by him

for the Fallen Officer Fund
event,

and Elon was very pleased.

So I'll update the proposal
and send it over.

Great.
Any other pressing matters?

Send it over and I'll review it.

[laughs]

Yes, I do like
to fill up my days.

Here. Grab a seat.

Your files all accounted for.

You didn't happen to slide
your card in here, did you?

In case I want
to explore my options

for suing the hospital...
over dinner?

Well, if it's a case
you're serious about,

who am I to turn down
a potential client?

What planet are you from?

Planet?

Men, Mars. Women, Venus.

And you're from...?

How about a beautiful
little place called Puerto Rico?

-Ah, like Bad Bunny.
-Yeah, he's a big deal there.

We're all about
that Boricua pride.

It's got me in my feels
just thinking about it.

I bet Kat's gonna be
in her feels, too,

when you take her.

Why do you keep
name-dropping Kat?

Did she say something
to scare you away from me?

Let's leave it at:
she definitely doesn't need

another reason to hate on me.

She makes up enough reasons
on her own.

Look, I messed up.

I've been so focused
on business,

I forgot how tough this is
for you and Aunt Dani.

-Kat, I--
-Let me finish.

What if you could
spin this in a way

where Aunt Dani won't get
in her feelings?

-Like how?
-Think about it.

You could break down
how your social media game is

turning into a whole business.

Like, why use your clout
for others

when you can go
into business for yourself?

So frame it like I'm not
ditching her vision,

just leveling it up?

You're not just following
in her footsteps.

You're blazing your own trail.

And I could explain
how my following gives me

a platform that she never had.

There are opps now that didn't
even exist back in her day.

So I could take
what she taught me

and apply it to the digital age.

That's low-key genius.

But what if she doesn't
see it that way?

Then at least you stayed true
to yourself,

which you know is
what Aunt Dani would do.

JOEY:
It's my mother.

She's not getting any younger,

and my siblings are pushing
for a retirement home.

That's her worst nightmare.

That is a tough situation.

What can I do to help?

I would like to buy my mother
her dream home.

Give her some dignity.

That's really sweet.

I imagine you want a place
she can live comfortably.

Something designed
for the elderly.

And I understand that you are

the go-to Realtor
for that kind of thing.

A son looking out
for his mother.

I might have misjudged you
at first.

How so?

That's not important.

Let's focus on finding

the perfect home
for your mother, shall we?

As much as I'd enjoy
hanging out,

Kat's mom is my boss,

and I can't risk my job
over some guy I barely know.

Oh, so even talking's an issue?

Depends on where it leads.

[laughs]

I can't even with you.
You're straight-up dangerous.

Well, thank you
for the compliment.

I'd return it, but I don't want
to lead you into temptation.

Please.

See you.

WOMAN [over P.A.]:
Nurse to room 818.

Oh, and I meant what I said.

Kat's a lucky girl.

[soul music playing]

[line rings]

[phone buzzes]

Hey.

Oh, I thought you'd be swamped

and I'd have to slide
through your voicemail

like the last couple of times.

And like you were
when I texted back?

Fair point.

Um, so you're not being distant?

I don't mean to be, Kat.

Well, then pull up
to Orphey Gene's

and we can talk it through
face-to-face.

Yeah, I could be there in a few.

Okay.

-[Vanessa speaks indistinctly]
-I'm sorry to interrupt.

I think I left my badge.

Oh, Doug, let me introduce you
to Mr. Armstrong.

Hello, Doug.
Pleasure to meet you.

I was just asking
your lovely wife

about finding a special place
for my mother.

Oh, is that right?

Well, Vanessa's schedule's
pretty tight.

I'd be surprised if she could
squeeze in another client.

Well, then it's a good thing
she already made room.

-Oh, she did?
-She did.

Of course I did.

Mr. Armstrong's mother deserves
nothing but the best.

Have fun.

DOUG:
I will.

Good luck with the house hunt,
Mr. Armstrong.

Thank you, Dr. McBride.

I'm a big believer in luck.

Good morning, Gran.
Or is it afternoon?

There's so much going on,
I can't keep track.

I could hear those gears turning
all the way in the library.

So, what is weighing
on that beautiful,

brilliant mind of yours?

I have a big decision to make.

So, a case has landed in my lap
that could change everything.

Sounds intriguing.

What is it?

Okay, well, uh,
protecting confidentiality,

I will share what's rumored.

Three women from the law offices
of Bill Hamilton

want to file
a sexual harassment suit

against the firm.

Well, lots of reasons
not to take that on.

Yeah, the press,
first and foremost.

You're afraid
that our family's notoriety

would overshadow the victims?

Yeah, that's a big piece of it.

Especially since everything with
Mom has finally settled down.

And you certainly don't want
to put your mother

and the rest of the family
through all of that again.

How can I, in good conscience?

And then there's the question of
whether you can even beat Bill.

Well, yeah,
that's a consideration.

Well, now,
don't get me wrong, Naomi.

Your reputation is growing
in legal circles,

but Bill's firm has resources
that are far beyond your access.

You'd be like David
going up against Goliath

without even a slingshot.

So you're saying
I shouldn't take the case?

I haven't said a word about
what you should or shouldn't do.

I'm just holding a mirror
up to your own doubts.

Now ask me if I think
you can win.

Do you think
I could beat my dad?

I think you are more
than capable of handling this.

You are smart and dedicated,

and you have a fire for justice

that would make
Thurgood Marshall stand back.

But, Gran,
the fallout for our family.

Ah, it's just another day
in the neighborhood. [chuckles]

Naomi, listen.

Those women chose you
for a reason.

They see in you what I do.

Someone who will stand by them
and stand up for them

with everything she's got.

So the question isn't
whether you can win.

It's whether or not you're ready
to show the world what happens

when a Dupree woman decides
to move mountains.

[sighs]

I think a ranch-style house.

Uh, wheelchair-accessible
doorways.

No high or low shelving.

Looks like you've put
some real thought into this.

It's great to see a son

so devoted to his mother's
well-being.

Oh, my mother is my whole life.

I'd do anything for her.

You look amazing.

Glad you noticed.

And you think I'm distant?

Maybe that's just
what I learned to expect.

So, now that I have
your requirements,

I'll get back to you
before end of day

with some prospects.

I look forward
to our continued partnership.

MAN:
So...

...you went from robbing
the cradle to the grave.

Pops.

I didn't expect you
to show up so quick.

Yeah, I had some time
between meetings.

Plus your text sounded urgent.
What's on your mind, son?

What can you tell me
about Detective Malone?

Your new partner?

How's it working out for you?

Man, if Marcel had his way,

I'd be nothing
but his errand boy,

fetching coffee
and doing grunt work.

Not quite the learning
experience you was hoping for.

Hell nah.

[laughs]

Let me break it down
for you, son.

Marcel has been on this force

longer than some of these
rookies have been breathing.

All right? He's seen things
that would make most men quit.

So give him some leeway.

I know his methods may not be

what you're used to,
but they get results.

And what result do you get

by turning a blind eye
to corruption?

What'd you see?

Joey Armstrong.

He pocketed a fat stack of cash

from some wannabe thug
on the street in broad daylight.

-And what was it for?
-That's the thing, Pops.

He wouldn't even look into it.
Said it wasn't important.

I don't know, man.

I'm starting to get
a funny feeling about him.

That doesn't sound like
a good cop to you, does it?

[sighs]

Jacob, I know your generation is
all about the vibes,

but in this line of work,
we deal with cold, hard facts.

You may want
to get yours straight

before you start
throwing around the "C" word.

So you think
I'm misreading this?

I think it's possible

that with all Malone's years
on this force,

he knows which cases are
worth the squeeze

and which ones lead
on a wild goose chase.

Listen, don't get it twisted.
That man earned his stripes.

I hear you.

But no matter
how many stripes I earn,

I'll never forget my obligation
to protect and serve.

We all appreciate
your moral code, son.

In due time, so will Malone.

Just give him a chance
to warm up to you, all right?

He may teach you something yet.

So, do you think I'm weird
for being a virgin?

Not at all. It's admirable.

Shows you've got discipline.

So, why are you so hesitant
about being physical?

Not bedroom stuff.
I'm not there yet.

But a kiss now and then
wouldn't hurt.

When we were
in front of your family,

you wouldn't even
let me kiss your cheek.

Okay, that was
for your own protection.

Have you ever seen videos

of my granddaddy
chairing Senate hearings?

He's lethal.

But he's not here now.

In that case,
let me shoot my shot.

[soul music playing]

I don't appreciate
you checking up on me, Diego.

And for the record,
there's nothing going on

between Mr. Armstrong and me.

What's that old guy's deal?

He's not just any guy.

Let's just say
he has a reputation.

But I didn't expect him to be
so handsome and fine.

Right.

-For an old head.
-[chuckles]

You've got no right
to be jealous, Diego.

-I thought we had something.
-We do.

Just not exclusively.

I can see whoever I want,
whenever I want,

old heads included.

Who do you want to see
right now?

The old guy, your husband...

or me?

[winces]

That depends.

Still up for that workout?

Yo, yo.

I've been waiting for you
at the casino.

Man, you won't believe
the mess that I just saw.

Try me.

Your boy Joey cozying up
to my wife.

Oh, word? What were they doing?

Just talking over breakfast.

Something about
buying a house for his mama.

[chuckles] Man, that sounds
pretty PG to me.

How do you know he wasn't
telling you the truth?

Come on, Randy.
You don't think that's shady?

Well, listen,
if Joey was up to anything,

I would let you know.

WOMAN [over P.A.]:
Orderly to 211.

How about we head back
to the casino

while the tables are still hot?

You know, this paper ain't
gonna stack itself.

Fine.

But I'm gonna be keeping
a close eye on Joey.

And while you do that,
I'm gonna watch you

turn them tables
into money printers.

'Cause tonight dinner's on you.

What's got your gears turning?

Oh, I was, um...
[chuckles]

I was just thinking
about the good old days.

Oh.

Sitting here with you reminds me

how much I miss
singing with the girls.

-Oh.
-[chuckles]

We were on the road
45 weeks out of the year,

crammed into a station wagon.

We barely slept.

Survived on fast food and soda,

and I loved
every single minute of it.

Well, what made
you walk away from it all?

Mm.

I was ready.

I had a great run
with the girls,

a successful solo career.

Married the love of my life.

Had success as an actress.

Well, as much success
as a Black actress could have

in Hollywood back then.

Mm-hmm.

But, um, yeah, I felt
like I'd done it all.

Yeah.

But here's what I want
to share with you.

The strength it took for me
to accomplish all of that,

that strength runs
in your veins.

It's in all Dupree women.

So we don't back down
from a challenge.

And we certainly don't let
anybody dim our spotlight.

I know that's right.

You okay, Gran?

Splendid.

-Why do you ask?
-I don't know.

It just looked
like you were reliving

some of those glory days.

Oh, living in the past is
for old farts who have

nothing better to do
in their present-day lives.

Do I look
like a has-been to you?

No, ma'am.

[both chuckle]

My life today is wonderful.

My charity work
could fill volumes.

In fact, it's better
than it's ever been.

Well, my, my, my.

My grandmother's got it
going on.

Still out here doing the most.

Oh, where do I begin? Let's see.

There's my involvement
in health and wellness.

-Right.
-The community theater

that I single-handedly revived.

And of course, let's not forget

the literacy program
I started at the library.

You know, they wanted
to name a wing after me,

but I told them

to name the whole building
or nothing else.

You did do that.

The point is, Naomi,

I have no regrets.

Not a one.
And neither should you.

-I'm so glad we talked this out.
-Same.

This is how we should
handle things.

Straight up and honest.

The exact opposite
of how it went with my exes.

[groans]
Mine, too.

I think that you and I
have the chance

to build something real.

I got to head back
to the office.

Yeah, I should bounce, too.

You go. I'll go grab the check.

Already handled.

Oh, okay.

Well, I'll hit you up later.

You're not going
to get rid of me that easily.

Let me walk you to your car.

DOUG:
Yes!

WOMAN:
Damn it.

That's what I'm talking about.

The man can't lose for winning.

At this rate, he'll pay me back
before dinnertime.

Well, Doug is having
a hot streak.

These things happen.

You think I don't know that?

It's not about luck, Randy.
It's about control.

He owes me big-time.

If he pays me back, he's free.

And free men
don't make good puppets.

Sometimes there's just nothing
we can do about it.

Let him have his big day.

Tomorrow he loses his shirt.

Mom, what I'm trying to say is,

you remember when you found out
about Dad and Hayley?

Worst news ever, right?

Well, this is nothing
compared to that.

My modeling career.

-I'm out.
-JACOB: You talking to yourself?

Jacob, do not be sneaking up
on me like that.

You almost got this phone
thrown in your face.

My bad. Being stealthy
helps me catch shady perps.

Are you calling me a shady perp?

Well, that depends.

You doing something
to be called a shady perp?

Shouldn't you be out
patrolling the street

instead of all up
in my business?

And shouldn't you be out
on somebody's runway

instead of harassing
a detective?

Well, when that detective is
my brother-in-law,

I get to harass him
whenever, wherever.

-That's fair.
-Maybe you could
help me with this.

Your dad's your boss, right?

Yeah, but he's
the chief of police, Chels.

I'm just one
of many cops he bosses.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Point is, he's your boss
like Mom's mine.

What do you do when you need
to draw a line of separation

between parent and supervisor?

Well, blurred lines happen,
but we manage.

Sometimes he says things
I don't agree with,

but I have to check myself.

He wears the stars
on his collar.

That's the same, just different.

I have to tell Mom something,

and I don't think
she'll take it well.

Oh, boy, do I have to get
a cell ready?

I'm joking. I'm joking.

I guess I just have
to get it over with, huh?

Mm.

Well, good luck with that.
I'm gonna hit the gym.

[sighs]

Well, well, well.

If it ain't the chief
of police himself.

Standing down
from his ivory tower

to mix it up
with us common folk?

Yeah, good to see you,
too, Malone.

Where's Jacob?

The golden child?

Boy been running off
at the mouth.

Told him there was
a noise disturbance

down at the Quickie Mart.

Slipped in a doughnut order.

He didn't even catch it.

Yeah, oldest trick in the book.

You haven't changed a lick.

That's why they call them
the classics for a reason.

Things are different than
when you and I were coming up.

Now, back then hazing was
a rite of passage.

-It's how we separated
the men from the boys.
-Yeah.

Jacob has already more than
proven himself in that respect.

He's a good cop, all right?

We can't have Jacob
asking questions

about you that I can't answer.

Sure thing, boss.
Anything you say.

Don't brush me off, Malone.

This isn't a game we playing.

All right, I got you.

Be nice to the kid.

Don't forget,
that's my flesh and blood.

Anything that happens to him,

you won't have to come
looking for me.

We clear?

Crystal.

-What's up, cousin?
-[sighs]

How'd it go with Aunt Dani?

I couldn't get ahold of her
after my lunch thing.

I think she's self-soothing.

But anyway, you sounded pressed
on the phone. What's going on?

After you left, I had Tomas
meet me at Orphey Gene's.

And?

You know, Tomas is
kind of special, right?

Like there's just something
about him that's different.

So what's the issue?

He's experienced
in a way that I'm not.

Is he pressuring you into sex?

No, it's not like that.

But I have been
thinking about it.

Kat, you've always been

about that "no sex
until love" life, right?

I know.

So, are you in love?

No. Not yet, anyway.

Well, there's your answer.

You don't want your first time
to be so cringey

that you'll regret it later.

But how will I know
when I'm ready?

You just will.

And you won't need me
to tell you.

So I was thinking

that we start off
with a light stretch

-and move on to legs.
-[chuckles]

That's not the workout
I had in mind.

Come with me, Diego.

We seem to be making a habit
out of this.

Stick with it till you nail it.

-Yes!
-[ragged groan]

[chuckles]
Yes.

That's what I'm talking about.

[phone buzzes]

[music playing faintly]

[sighs]

What do you need, Malone?

For you to stop making
stupid mistakes.

Like accepting cash payouts
in broad daylight.

Especially in front of a rookie
cop dying to make his bones.

That's what I pay you for.

Handle it.

Thank you for the encouragement.

You really helped me
put things into perspective.

-That's what I'm here for.
-Yeah.

To provide wisdom and look
fabulous while doing it.

You know, all this talk
about your performing days,

I can't help but wonder
if you still got it.

-Is that a challenge?
-I mean...

Listen, I have forgotten

more about performance
than these kids today even know.

In fact, I've learned
a few new tricks.

Oh, yeah? Well, then
show me what you got.

I've been paying attention
to these female rappers.

What's her name? Cardi Z.

And the other one?
Megan the Mustang.

Do you mean, um,
Cardi B and Megan--

Naomi.

Now, you know I know.

The point is...

...your grandmother is still
hip and happening.

So get ready,

because I'm about to get so lit,

you're gonna have to put
shadow all over it.

-I think you mean shade.
-Whatever.

Give me a beat.

[beatboxing]

-Come on.
