Previously on Single Ladies. Did you help murder your friend?

She's missing.

I'm not dead. My friend saw me around. I'm sorry we had to meet under these

circumstances. What happened?

You asked her for half of the company and she said no, so you made her

disappear? I can't sell my piece of it unless this investor says I can.

Name's Alicia Price.

I'm looking for my next in -vote. That's H -L -T -O -E -5, girl.

Time for me to sing and you're on my stage.

You're not ready.

But he still keeps in touch.

Hashtag sexy babe.

I didn't kill Raquel.

You know, hashtag sexy babe would be a little bit more careful.

I'm telling y 'all.

Over and over again.

With Brady and the kids out there. Come on, let me show you why.

Right this way, man.

I've been

at this job a while, Deja.

And woman to woman, I hate to see this.

The man goes out of his way to do wrong, takes off, leaving his wife, a

girlfriend, and meth.

Tell us everything you know about Malcolm Price.

I can't help you.

They all say that at first.

And then... You don't know me.

They say that, too.

At first.

I want my attorney.

Enjoy your accommodation.

Good.

Right this way, Counselor.

I want to be Rihanna.

I want to be Sade.

Wait.

Hmm.

We could use another show day.

And so I think we may have found somebody. Her name is Casey Bridges, and

want you to take a look at this.

There's a place for her.

So wait, we did good?

Like, we didn't screw up?

Today is too young.

Anybody here?

Terrence, what the hell?

You have a knife or a gun in you? You're giving me a freaking heart attack.

Look, my bad.

I just couldn't resist.

It's good to see you, Austin.

Yeah, well, I never would have reached out to you had I known you were going to

lure me here to play creeper.

My bad.

Look, speaking of that, last time I saw you, you said you were done with

Atlanta. No, I said I was done with the athletes in Atlanta.

Anyway, I'm hosting parties across town, and I could not turn down the paycheck.

What, your pop's not bankrolling you anymore?

No, the Admiral and I haven't spoken in over a year.

He got tired of his daughter disappointing him, and I got tired of

shoot him.

Happiest year of my life, though.

That's what's up.

So, enough about me. What about you?

You said you had a surprise.

You're standing in it.

I bought this place and everything that you see in it.

Voila. Ta -da.

Really.

Congratulations, babe. You just bought a perfectly beautiful location that

closed because nobody ever came here. In the past, no one ever came here.

But that's all about to change.

Through what miracle?

Malagra Aguilera.

What the hell are you talking about?

Is the 70 -30 split good enough for you?

You want me to be your partner?

Look, no one knows the club game better than you. I mean, you've been in it for

a minute. I mean, you couldn't turn up.

Well, I could pack this place on the regular.

Yes, you could.

But this is, I mean, a big commitment for you.

a sudden. Does this have something to do with Raquel?

You know what?

I'm sorry. It's none of my business. Nah.

It's alright.

I just felt like I wanted something of my own to build.

I'm calling it the Oak.

Laying down the roots.

Building this place up strong.

I could use a distraction myself.

So, that means you win?

Absolutely.

Then you better come and get some of this.

I love you. Good to see you. You too. I miss you.

I love we got our work cut out. Oh, yeah.

Sanders and Gowling, can you hold, please?

Sanders and Gowling, can you hold, please?

Hi,

I'm here to see Karen Bridges, please.

Karen! Somebody's here to see you!

Can I get your name?

April Goldberg.

I got it. I got it. You'll have to excuse her. She's the boss's daughter.

I'm Karen Bridges. Hi, April Goldberg. Walk with me.

Nice to... Anyway...

I appreciate you taking the time to speak with me. That's okay. I punched

numbers all day. I needed the break.

Well, Felicia loves your daughter's YouTube channel. Do you got some

for me that I don't already know? Well, we think she has international appeal.

Again, you tell me something I already know.

And with the proper grooming and management, I will... No, no, no.

I am Casey's manager, and I don't care who else comes aboard, but I'm a numbers

person plain and simple. So, honey, why don't you show me some numbers?

What kind of numbers?

Okay.

I gotta get back to work. But you can tell your boss that if she wants Casey,

she better look me in the eye and say so.

Well, I have somewhere to be anyway, so... Do

you have a date?

Hey, buzz me up.

And why on God's green earth would I do that?

You told me you found some of my stuff and I could come get it. Derek, I'm in

the middle of something.

Look, y 'all.

Your box is right there.

All right.

Wow.

So different.

Well, that's what a year will do.

Like I said, I was in the middle of something, so... Right. All right.

All right.

Okay. Mm -hmm.

Um... You mind opening the door?

I messed up.

Hey, I promised you before God, family and friends, I'd be there.

Hey, I hate myself for breaking that promise.

Well, I hate you, so... After I blew out my knee, Atlanta cut me, and there was

no team checking for me, I was done.

A wrap.

I played ball my whole life.

Without it, I didn't... I didn't know how to be. How to be what?

Your husband.

Felicia. It's really time for you to get out of my house.

I'm telling you, you need to go.

Come on. Why all of a sudden? Oh, my God. You are so horrible to me, and

I just still... I care about you, too.

Hey.

I never meant to hurt you.

Well, that doesn't stop me from being hurt.

I'm trying to apologize to you.

Okay, I will accept your apology if you stop that.

What about if I do this?

Oh, you wanted to see me?

So you're Raquel's sister.

The one who sold the boutiques you cared so much about.

So you're Raquel's best friend.

The one who looking at big time in the big house.

How about you kiss my ass?

Goodbye.

You got five minutes.

Flexibase said he got you.

What? Come on in, Nate. Let's go. Come on.

So, wear everything working title Roshanda came up with, which I

think is a little on the... I love it. Keep going.

Right. So, it will carry everything from tops,

bottoms, hats.

accessories, everything.

Which is why I thought the name was a little on the... Continue.

Okay, so the website can be up in 30 days. It'll be active 24 hours a day,

days a year.

Oh, always a bonus when the money is working for me while I sleep.

What's the marketing plan?

Social media, across the board.

No, no, we've got to do more. Everybody's doing that.

I need to say that. And everybody's doing it because it's like cardio in a

-carb diet.

It works.

I know why you don't want to pursue a physical store for this project.

There's no brand loyalty, no customer base yet. No, no, no.

You don't want to be seen in a low -price store like this.

Admit it.

Oh. Okay, yeah.

Mm -hmm.

Felicia, if I thought the store was going to make money, I'd be in there.

Prada bag over my head and all.

Every day.

Live music or DJ?

Live music is cool if it's right. But hot DJs pack houses.

I have this DJ friend and I think he's in town this week.

We should meet up and just set up some dates.

Cool, set it up.

Okay, done.

Now, what about a dress code?

I don't know. I'm still thinking about it.

What do you think?

I don't know. You're the boss. I've got to go.

My last paid appearance before I give it all up for you.

I'm honored.

You should be, Papi.

All right. I'll see you later.

All right.

Be safe.

Sorry I'm late.

ACL is crazy.

There must be 20 streets named Peachtree.

It's okay. Just have a seat.

I'm going to have me a conference room like this one day.

So here's where we are.

Okay. Felicia thinks it would be best if we start with an online presence

instead of a brick and mortar. What?

Brick and mortar? The stuff adults build buildings out of? Uh -uh. I'm a people

person. I need to interact to make it work.

We'll get there.

We just need to try this online thing for a minute.

Okay? Okay then, Mr. O.

It's Omar.

You don't need this.

You forget something?

I never forget anything.

And you know what?

We can play this one of two ways.

You can invite us in and talk to us, or I can arrest you for assaulting a police

officer.

You choose.

Wow.

Love what you've done for the place.

Yeah, nice.

Come on, man. Say what you need to say.

We're just really impressed with how quickly you pulled yourself back

after such a tragedy. I mean, last week you were inconsolable.

And now... You got new money.

You got a new club.

You even got a new girl.

Austin is not my girl.

Right. And you're living the American dream now.

All it took was for Raquel Lancaster to die.

You do remember Raquel, don't you?

I have nothing else to say to y 'all.

It's cool.

Actions speak louder than words anyway.

It's a really nice lamp.

You said I'd be in jail one day. I know.

Thank you for admitting that.

But for gambling, not for...

Aiding and abetting. Reasons that your friends don't understand.

Well, they want Malcolm.

Bad. And they think I know where he is.

Well, do you?

You've been 100 % committed to him. But we're talking prison here, Keisha. So if

you know something, then just tell them so you can get out of here.

Why is it that nobody believes that maybe I don't have anything to say?

Because we all know that silence is not your strong point, Keisha.

Well, maybe it could be if Malcolm leaves me alone.

I mean, even in here, he's getting messages to me.

Don't listen to those messages.

Listen to us.

We've been friends a long time. We've all been through too much for you to be

anything but honest.

Keisha, it is time to put yourself first.

I'm with April.

Orange is not the new black. And I know you, just like you know me. And we both

know that you can't live the way you want to live in there.

So tell him what the hell you know so you can come home.

Damn it. Do you hear me, Keisha?

Yeah.

I hear you.

You keep this up, you're going to have people talking.

Well, I didn't know what the protocol was for calling your soon -to -be ex

after you've slept together.

Well, you know I have my own protocol.

You always have.

Listen, I just got off the phone with my attorney.

He says you increased the offer.

Well, you can thank me later.

Alicia, we both know that offer doesn't represent my fair share of Price

Entertainment. You used the money I made playing ball to start the company.

drop in the bucket compared to what I put into it? Yeah, but it was still

something. I just want what's fair.

Fair? Are you kidding me?

I put everything I had into us and you disappeared into a bottle of painkillers

and a hotel room full of hoochies. I messed up.

Okay?

But I have a family I have to support now.

Well, you weren't thinking about your family the other day, now were you?

So don't use them to justify you ripping me off.

Hey, hey, I... I'm entitled to a piece of the company. You're entitled to

nothing. Felicia. Goodbye.

Kiera?

I need you to do me a favor and block Derek from all of my phone.

Got it.

Boston.

Hi, Yolanda.

Hi. I'll start with an apology. I don't remember where we met. Oh, we never met,

but I am a big fan. Do you mind if I get an autograph?

Of course not.

Awesome.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Okay, who should I make it out to?

James. Make it out to James.

Hey, James.

Nice to meet you.

Yeah, nice to meet you, too.

And that second piece of paper, that's for you.

Oh. What is this?

It's your partner's rap sheet.

He must be a cop.

Detective, I'm one of the good guys, Miss Aguilar. I just wanted you to know

kind of man you're going into business with.

Well, thank you for your concern, Detective.

But Terrence and I have been friends for a long time, and I know exactly who he

is. Really?

Then, you know, he ran multiple chop shops.

And when he was finally caught, his court -appointed therapist diagnosed him

with explosive rage issues.

And I assume that you also know that Frank's jewels assets are frozen.

And to finance that club of yours, he sold the company that he and his

murdered girlfriend started together.

Does that sound like a guy that you really want to be around?

I've been around enough stripes and badges in my life to know that not

everything is what it seems, detective.

And everybody, including the good guys, is working at angle.

All right.

All right.

If you feel like you're in danger or something isn't right, please leave me a

call.

I don't want you getting mixed up in his crap and end up an accessory to

something that you didn't bother.

Apologies, Karen.

The traffic is a beast. But we can go in my office and just jump right in. Oh,

no, no, no, no, no. We won't be jumping right into anything.

Well, I would... Oh, I had to intervene.

Otherwise, I thought I'd be doing an injustice to not only Karen, but to many

other artists, past and present, who have signed janky slave deals just for

chance of fame.

Really? That's exactly what I said when I saw the contract. May I?

Ugh. Page 15, second to last paragraph, $100 ,000 advance check. Yeah, the

check.

Signed and ready for her to deposit today, if she so chooses. Yeah, that's

one. Although I think the proper term for it is loan, considering the fact

she'll have to pay every cent back and more. Once you start to tack on those

expenses to cart her beautiful daughter around in memos and put her up in fancy

hotels and getting her hair and makeup and wardrobe done to make her look like

the superstar she already is.

So you knew all along that we would wind up owing you.

Find yourself another fool.

You are unbelievable.

Wrong question. I think you should be asking yourself, how did I know she was

here?

Let me see you twerk.

Now let me see you turn up.

Turn up. Yeah, let me see you twerk.

Let me see you twerk.

Let me see you twerk.

Go. Let me see you turn up. Go, girl.

Hey, Rollo.

Go, Rollo.

Tell me the truth.

I'm pretty sure mine still works David I

came to apologize

I'm so sorry I didn't offer my condolences for what happened to Raquel.

I've been so busy mixing it up with Felicia that I actually forgot we used

care about each other.

And the work is hard and I'm fighting with my sister and it's all too much to

deal with.

I know.

I'm sorry.

Hey.

If there's anything you need, anything, I'm here for you.

I'll cook for you.

I'll clean.

I'll wash your windows.

I'll cut your bangs for you.

Okay.

Hey, look at me.

You're going to be all right.

Thank you. Yeah, because I started me an IRA account last week, so I can't wait

to deposit this.

Don't want to be old and broke, you know.

No, I don't know, but I'm excited to see you work your magic.

Yeah, just be nice if I had something real to manage.

It is real. It's real. Really? We have real manufacturers making real clothing,

and as soon as the orders start coming in, we'll have real money.

All right.

All right, I'm down.

See y 'all later.

You are to make sure that website is run properly, and whatever you do, Rashonda

is not to make a public statement without approval first.

Why would I?

Felicia, I love my job, but I'm starting not to know what my job is. I mean, I'm

a stylist. Kick -ass, good -looking stylist.

Fresh.

But I'm a stylist.

You're right.

I guess we'll have to add kick -ass into your new job description.

I don't... I don't understand.

You're my new VP of new business. Your office is down the hall.

Is... Serious? Seriously?

Oh, that's your serious face.

Oh, my God.

Um...

Of course.

It's a good choice.

I'm actually shocked you didn't come to that conclusion much earlier. Thank you.

Thank you very much. I appreciate it.

Wow!

You're fine. I'm just kidding.

Hold on one second.

Christ Entertainment.

Are you cold?

Mr. Wyatt is on the line. Oh, God.

No, I... I don't want to buy your label. It doesn't fit into my business model.

Well, my business model is own everything that matters. And

you, I'm getting into music content.

Nothing you do could be bad for me, given you don't know what you're doing.

You're nothing but a patch of weeds in my garden, and I've already started

rooting you out.

You have, have you? You had a pipeline to the UK that generated a third of your

revenue.

I just hired the head of your London office, and I wanted you to hear it from

me.

Have a nice day.

There, ma 'am.

Go ahead. Take a seat.

Right there.

Hi.

You better be glad I'm saved.

Because I would have something for you.

You don't understand.

No. I understand.

You were the only person I told about getting a message from Malcolm. And

what got me arrested.

Thought a respected pastor could be trusted.

But you're no different than a snitch on the street.

I'm sorry you feel that way.

You know what? You better be glad these guards are here.

Because I would make you sorry for a whole lot more. I'm already sorry,

It wasn't supposed to go down like this. You were supposed to give up Malcolm

and go on with the rest of your life. Give them Malcolm? Yes.

Give them Malcolm.

I spent four years of my life with that man.

He was the love of my life.

You don't give up somebody you care about, regardless of how it ended.

You don't give up a man who shared your bed, your heart.

Your life.

Ever. I'm trying to help you. You ruined my life.

You hear me?

of the girl we brought in, I think actually she would be great for the 3rd

November. You turned off my cell?

Really? Now is not a good time. Yeah, my phone's off right now, so now is the

right time.

Can I have the room, please?

Then now might be a good time for you to stop hanging out with Rolo and group

and go get a job and actually pay your bills. You know that I'm trying to be a

singer. A singer, right.

You're a singer.

You know what? Come with me.

Uh, wait.

May I help you? No, but she seems to think she can help us.

And who the hell is she?

My sister.

And the new third member of your girl group.

Oh. Yeah, I was going to tell you about it later today, but no time like the

present, right? You're learning, and I'm waiting.

Go, Brie, sing.

Huh? You're auditioning. Sing.

Go.

Don't know whether...

Enough.

Don't ever barge into my office again without knocking.

Second,

there may be room for you in my new girl group.

That is, if you fit in with the other girls.

I am out.

Evelyn, we're a nice surprise.

How are you, Gregory?

Sarah told me that you wanted to speak with me. We were going to put something

on the calendar, but here you are, which is pretty important.

I know how busy you are. You know I wouldn't bother you unless it was

That's true. I do know that. So, shoot, what can I do for you?

Keisha Green.

Please.

She's called you twice, and you haven't responded.

Unfortunately, my dear, that is something I cannot help you with.

An innocent woman is facing serious charges, and you're not going to

You were willing to help her husband.

Truth is, Ms. Powell, if Malcolm Franks wanted to help his woman, he could have

reached out to me.

But he didn't.

And I assume that there's a good reason for that. Or not.

Either way, it's not my problem.

What can be gained by locking her up?

The question you should be asking is, why would I stick my neck out for her?

I don't owe her anything, and there's nothing a washed -up gambler can offer

I see.

Now you've got my curiosity piqued.

Why would you stick your neck out?

But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, and yet closes

his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him?

That's the thing about the Bible.

There's a verse for practically everything.

I didn't laugh at one thing during the movie tonight.

Sorry, babe.

My head just wasn't in it.

Mark? Of course.

Anything you care to discuss?

You do know you work for the enemy, right?

Yes, but I can keep your business secrets and still work at Price.

Okay, all right.

Molly, so can I. Okay.

One thing that's going on over at Queen Viva Entertainment.

Um, okay, I got it.

Your boy stole Felicia Price's key guy at the London office.

Boo. I already knew that. I helped close the deal.

Well, here's something that you don't know. Huh?

I'm thinking of asking her to consider me for the gig.

Wow.

That's huge.

I mean, I believe in you. I know you can do it.

Do you want me to do it?

You want me to go that far away?

What are you doing?

Pre -celebrating.

Calling Aria to make reservations.

Because I know when you ask, she's going to say yes.

So I choose to celebrate you in advance, baby.

Right.

Great. Let's celebrate.

Dr. Powell.

What can I do for you? Look, in the interest of not wasting your time,

Green.

She's a good woman who's had a tough start in life. She's worked hard, and

made something of herself.

And she can get back to that nice life she's made for herself as soon as she

gives us Malcolm Franks.

Keisha's a woman in love with the wrong man.

If that were criminal, I'd be locked up a couple of times myself.

And coincidentally, you were. Excuse me.

Here you go. Thanks.

She's guilty of being loyal.

Nothing more.

Look, Rev, we've got the woman closest to Malcolm Franks. Pretty soon he's

to contact her and we'll get him.

Had you not done your job, we wouldn't even have a shot at him. So why not just

say thank you to the city for dropping the money laundering charges against

Go back to winning souls.

Just to be clear, I never touched a dollar of the church's money.

No, you just...

Let your old friends clean their dirty dollars in the house of the Lord.

Wow.

I hope you never owe anybody a favor.

Especially somebody who once saved your life.

Thank you, Meredith.

You're welcome.

Oh, here she is.

She's the green.

Ms. Green, you have read the charges against you and have willingly accepted

plea bargain?

I have, Your Honor.

Is there anything you wish to add before sentence is passed?

Yes.

Yeah.

Well, this court hereby sentences you to five years in the state penitentiary

for conspiracy to aid the act of committing a felony.

Wait,

Your Honor.

Can I have a couple minutes with my family?

Just a moment.

You can't do five years in prison, Keisha.

I will do five years in prison.

I'm nobody's snitch.

Mama. I made her bed. I have to lay in it. Except you let Malcolm make your bed

for you this time.

I'll miss you till this is fabulous.

I miss you so much.

What am I going to do without you?

It's going to be okay.

You're a lot stronger than you think you are.

We love you.

I love you guys.

Thank you.
