The rich and the ruthless.

Brought to you by Cricker and Cramble and the WNB Network.

Delivering truth, not fluff.

We keep you clinging to a cliff while inspiring you during commercials to keep

your laundry white and those chocolate cakes moist.

20 years of aspirational escapism from your own damn dirty problems.

I'm calling security to both have you taken off the premises.

You don't have to go through me first.

I can be around.

Enough. You don't have the authority to fire anyone on my show, Randall.

Your show.

I'm in charge now. In charge.

Did you get that in writing?

Yes, a verbal agreement.

Once the show is transferred to the network, I take the R &R reins. Right,

Edith? Edie?

I have no idea what you're talking about, Randall.

What? Well, we had a deal.

The only deal I negotiated was the sale of the rich and the ruthless from the

Beringers. To the network.

Any other staffing changes will be made at a later date. You idiot.

You didn't get it in writing?

You're both done.

Well, as entertaining as this has all been, I am going to get the contract to

legal.

There are changes to be made. You're not changing a damn thing.

I'm sorry.

You no longer have a say in the matter.

The hell I don't. Oh,

oh, right.

It's a symptom of your condition.

What part of R &R isn't your program anymore, don't you understand?

Since when isn't it my show?

You said, I said, we said when you signed right here on the dotted line.

right here. Read it. It says, Edith is a fool.

You did it. I did.

Checkmate.

Save your outrage for the unemployment line, Edith.

I played golf with your boss last week. I heard all about your plans to sell

Rich and the Riddles overseas and kill it domestically. Nice try.

Nobody does it to me. Do you understand? Nobody.

Bye.

Oh, boy. You got Edith good.

Got me in the back after all these years, Randall.

Get the hell out of my face.

Bound.

No, wow, bitch.

Hey, oh, did you hear?

Hear what?

We're moving the rich and the ruthless to Jamaica after all.

I guess it's time to take my beautiful

bride on a real vacation before she makes her comeback on the show.

If there is anyone present that sees just cause for this lovely couple to

not be wed in holy matrimony, let them speak now or forever hold their peace.

You okay?

I had that damn dream again.

The one where Amy's pregnant?

Yeah, that one.

Too much of that scotch bonnet hot sauce on that jerk chicken. I told you.

It's not funny.

Come on, pat the back, baby. Come on.

It's okay.

Okay.

Baby?

Yeah?

Amy always interrupts before.

The preacher can say you may now kiss the bride.

Well, let me fix that for you.

So to be clear, Samuel, we're looking to

hire you on our soap opera immediately in the role of Willie Turner.

I'm not sure this would be a good fit.

I'm busy as a bee.

I'm off to the UK next month.

Then it's New York and Australia.

Then I have to star in a play in Kingston in the fall and an opera in

My, my.

It certainly sounds exciting.

Not nearly as exciting as you must be, my darling.

What about our offer?

As an actor in demand, it's not easy to negotiate my very, very, very busy

schedule.

But if you can find a part in your soup for this moist black

rum pudding cake here... Baby, there's a bathroom.

I'll have some champagne.

She keeps my blood pumping.

I'll have the organic jerk flan steak with some rice and peas and

a side of plantains and dumplings to start.

And how about your pepper pot soup and those codfish fritters?

Excellent. And for my main course, I'll have the succulent pork.

tenderloin. And one of your best champagne to wash down everything. And

glasses. That will be all, Sam.

Okay, now I'll have two little flowers.

Thank you.

Oh, you have quite an appetite, Samuel.

For all things painting.

You know, I've never done a soap opera.

It's that quizzical little production.

And to be quite honest, I have never heard of the rich and ruthless side of

Well, that's not a problem. You see, with soap opera, you can stop watching

ten years and then turn it back on and you can catch up just like that.

So, you're going to be on the show?

I certainly will.

Oh, that's tempting.

L .A. is so far away.

No problem. We're going to relocate the show to Jamaica.

Really?

Mm -hmm.

Is it true that soap actors have to study 30 pages a day?

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. For my lady.

Listen to me. If me decide to be in your soap, you know what to pay me.

You understand

me? I understand.

Good. Now, what under the bridge?

I'm not playing tit for tat or butter for fish or cuss for cuss or bad mind

bad mind. Because this could be a good opportunity to...

The price is right.

I didn't quite catch all of that, but... I got it, honey.

I've got it.

I'm going to paraphrase a little bit.

What Samuel's saying here is that all that American take -me -to -the -laundry

business is water under the bridge.

We're not going to do tit -for -tat, cuss -for -cuss, bad mind -for -bad

You see this as a wonderful opportunity if the price is right. Did I get it

right?

Perfect for the last letter.

Bill.

Deal.

Now, tell me about this character, Willie.

Well, he's an intellectual.

A man of the world.

Sophisticated. Speaks seven languages.

A lady's man.

I can hear that.

Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp. Or what's a heaven for?

That family was a real character. I hope he doesn't give us too much trouble.

Oh, he's harmless. I like him.

I could tell.

Willie's going to be pissed when he finds out we replaced him again.

What choice do we have? He violated his probation again.

Will we hire him when he gets out of the Crowbar Hotel?

How about we head to the Yacht Club and take the boat out to celebrate our new

destiny?

We can never find this paradise in Hollywood.

Why didn't I think of this sooner?

Look

at

her.

Wow.

I love this phone.

I cannot wait to get my baby suit.

Let's step inside destiny kitty All I need from you is that

you trust that I can turn the improbable into the possible

This will be our magnum opus.

We'll show those money -grubbing network executives.

Yes.

You know, like they say in Jamaica, small acts cut down big trees.

You know, babe, I have a question.

How did you come up with the money so quickly, you know, to relocate us from L

.A. to Jamaica?

Let's just say I cashed in on an old asset.

When your dad went to prison, I got out of the business.

But I need the money.

That's why I needed your help, Corey.

It's to keep the show going, right?

Yeah. And this masterpiece will fetch the money I need to make a movement then

some.

Are we doing like we did before?

Yeah. Hang it in one of the scenes of set art so the buyer can see it.

And guard it with your life.

Okay. And Corey.

Yes, Mr. Granger? Let me know the second it dries.

This never happened.

When I hold you close, I never want to let you go.

I know you're my love.

Augustus? Oh.

Augustus?

Augustus, honey!

You can't go on with -

Why did you have to leave me?

I love you, oh, my beloved.

I don't know how I can go on without you.

To take him from me.

There's a light.

You can't feel it.

Burning bright.
