Any luck?

Ah, I'm just gonna cut 'em
all up and throw 'em out.

I bet the neighbors won't care

if we have Christmas
lights this year anyway.

I uh, have to confess something.

Uh-oh, what'd you do now?

I was going through the mail

and I accidentally opened
a letter that was for you.

Should've look more
closely before opening it.

- Okay.
- It's the DNA test results.

Hmm, I thought the
Travis' were gonna call us

when they got 'em.

Yeah, they're out in East Bank.

So, letter probably came to
us a day earlier than them.

- Well, what does it say?
- I think you need to read it.

Are you okay with this whole thing?

I told you I was a wild teenager,

and back then we were all carefree.

You don't need to explain,

I even think you need to reconsider

what Mrs. Travis suggested,
about visiting Doris.

You've read this and you
want me to visit Doris Travis.

That's suspicious.

How about you quit
playing with it and open it?

I ain't said much about it,

but this whole thing is giving me hope,

being as I'm getting a little older.

- A little.
- Okay, a lot older.

Having a family and all
gives me a, kind of a nudge.

You know, a reason to,

well, to untangle these
lights and hang 'em.

I know exactly what
you're saying, honey.

Well, let's see what it says.

Logan. Hey, have a seat.

Thanks for coming.
- Yes, sir.

Thanks for reaching out.
- Yeah.

I ordered you a espresso macchiato,

Katie said that was your favorite.

That's perfect. Thanks.

So, talk to me. What happened?

Well, I guess after
our talk at the lake,

I kind of felt like I
needed to take a step back,

get things in order in my life

before taking a plunge into family life.

Not putting it into the engagement.

I mean, it's a little
more than a step back.

I know. I guess I got scared.

Needed to get my head on straight.

And listen, I love Katie too much

to risk hurting her in the
process of fixing my problems.

You mean the problem with gambling?

- So, about that.
- Wasn't gambling, was it?

No, sir.

I should have known a detective
could see through that lie.

I was embarrassed, caught off guard.

I didn't-
- Listen, I understand.

Seriously, I do.

But you're, you're getting help for that.

I mean, you got some accountability.

- Absolutely. Yeah.
- And Katie was aware

of the struggle,
- Mr. Travis,

she was so understanding.

Now, she didn't say it
was okay or anything,

but she said she could relate

to the pressure of having an addiction.

So why would you call
the engagement off?

You still love her?

More than anything in the world.

You said it yourself
though, when we first met,

when you marry somebody,

you basically marry the entire family.

So when you confronted me at the lake,

I felt like you wanted
somebody better for Katie.

My wife was married for
20 years to a nice guy.

A guy that would go to church on holidays,

would bow his head in prayer
when he was instructed.

He was a hard worker.

But I hadn't grown to understand
what was most important.

For me, it was a process.

Listen, I don't have any
unrealistic expectations about you.

I wanna make sure that you're honest

and that you treat my daughter well.

Beyond that, I don't know
what your relationship

is like with the Lord right now,

but I just would encourage
you to keep Him at the center,

so you don't waste those years that I did.

- That's what I want.
- That's good.

Now, well, Katie asked
me to give that to you.

I haven't looked at it.

I just, you know, read
through it, pray on it,

see what the Lord says.

But I will say that that girl

has not put pen to paper since
the advent of the smartphone.

So, I would read it four or five times.

- Thank you.
- Yeah.

I can't find my other heel.

Jamal, have you seen it?

Look, if you're gonna be on my couch,

you best be at least
helping me find my shoe.

How many times you
gonna hang it over my head

that this is your couch?

Uh, until you start
paying half of the rent.

Now help me find it!

Hey, slow down.

Now listen, you might
as well call in for work

'cause you can't find your shoe.

I mean, we got plenty of
work we could be doing here.

- Mm, yeah. Nice try, but no.
- Come on baby, please.

Hey, not right now, okay.

And not with Drake here.

Well, it ain't like he
about to tell anybody.

Excuse me. Nuh-uh, you
did not just say that.

- What?
- What do you even?

That's not a joke. That's not funny.

You got it?
- All right.

- Do you got it?
- All right. Chill out, dang.

You supposed to watch
him today, remember?

Can you do that or are you
gonna go back to sleep?

Yeah, I'm up.

I'm watching. We good.

Um, okay, good.

My boss has a big meeting coming up

that I need to help and prepare for,

so I will text you guys

and let you know what time I'll be home.

Oh, you got a card or some
cash in case we need to eat?

Yeah, the card is in the kitchen

and the pin number's on a sticky note.

- All right. Cool.
- All right.

Mama's getting ready to go to work.

Be good, have fun and practice
your words, okay. I love you.

Hey, wait, you got one for me?

All right, thank you.
He's on his way in.

I'll do the talking.

Does he understand what's going on?

Haven't mentioned the
meeting with Travis yet.

He's here for campaign purposes,

but I may be able to slip that piece in.

I'll be happy when this
whole ordeal's over with.

- Senator.
- Get in here.

It's still Frank, you old dog.

None of this senator nonsense.

How have you been?
- Family's great,

and work, can't complain.

You remember Philippa?
- Oh, of course. Of course.

Lovely as ever. Wonderful
to see you again.

- You as well.
- And this is David Castle,

director of security at CMI.

- Oh, it's a pleasure.
- Senator.

- I appreciate all you do.
- Thank you.

- Frank, let's sit down.
- Oh, absolutely.

When the appropriations
committee took recess,

it gave me a few days

to finally get down here to see you guys.

Timing's everything, right?

Well, it's important for
me to sit down face to face

with the people who have been instrumental

in everything we've been
able to accomplish in DC.

And you are right at the
top of that list, Eli.

Me and my team can't thank you enough

for the support you've given
us throughout the years.

Oh, and CMI, a pillar
of the American economy.

Pillar, that's a good word.

Pillars exist to bear the
weight, to shoulder the load,

and yet there's some people
who chip away at those

just for their own personal agendas.

Indeed, I see it every day.

Small minded meddlers who
can't see the greater good.

Fortunately, the system
provides a set of tools

to protect the pillars from tampering,

hammer, nails, trowel and mortar

or screwdriver to tighten a bolt,

whatever the job calls for.

Did you bring your tool
belt to Texas with you, Frank?

- Hey, babe.
- Welcome home.

- Yep.
- So, how long

they gonna have you working
these double shifts?

- I don't know.
- You mean your boss

ain't say nothing about it?

It's not normal for them to have you

working like that on your first week.

- They need people.
- Yeah.

Well, I still think you
should say something.

Tish, this job ain't
nothing but a paycheck

till I find something better.

That's all it is.

You miss being a cop,
I can already tell.

And we already discussed that,

so let's not rehash
that whole story again.

Sometimes you gotta do what's
best for the family, man,

so, that's what I'm doing.
- Yeah. Yeah.

But I still want you to be happy though.

Safe, but happy.

Yeah. Well, I'm
definitely safe at this job.

Do I talk to the
screen or to the camera?

You can look at either.

The screen is what most people do,

but it looks better on the other side

if you look at the camera.

I just need the right answer.

What, it's the camera or the screen?

Whichever's more comfortable, sir.

Neither of 'em are comfortable.

Jasmine, what do I do?

Look at the camera like
you're doing an interview.

Thank you, that was a
straightforward answer.

Who's recording this?

I think only the host can record.

Well, great.

We have to figure out how
to do that in the future.

All right.
- We will get on that

for the future.
- Okay. Thank you.

All right, everybody,
this is it. Get back.

Shh!
- What do I?

What do I punch?
- Hit the answer button.

Mr. Travis. It's a pleasure as always.

I hope you have some
good news for me today.

I do, I have some great news,

but also a dash of not so great news.

Which do you wanna start with first?

I'm happy to report that

thanks to a few phone
calls earlier this morning,

your name no longer appears
on any federal investigations.

They're gone.
- Well, that is encouraging,

but I'll have to confirm
it with my contacts.

And I trust that this courtesy

came from your well-placed associate.

- Indeed it did.
- So, when do I get

to meet this individual?

Well, that's actually the bad news.

We weren't able to arrange a meeting

due to the Senator's packed schedule.

Senator, huh? United States Senator.

That's a big deal. What state?

Mr. Travis, do we wanna
make this any harder

than it has to be?

Three people are dead and
we can't bring them back,

so why would you push this to the point

of damaging more lives?

Well, we had an agreement
that I got to meet this person,

this, this senator.
- While he's left town.

There's nothing we could do about it.

It was gracious for him
to honor our request.

And honestly, it's best for
all of us just to let it go.

And as soon as you sign the
confidentiality agreement,

funds will be transferred,

and this inconvenience becomes a footnote

in all of our professional biographies.

Give me 24 hours to consider it.

Okay. So what now?

You all take the rest of the day off.

I got some thinking to do.

You know if you take that offer,

it means we all still
have our jobs for a while.

That's important too.

So, that was fun.

We just sit here while
he makes up his mind.

First thing I learned in DC,

you never let your
opponent call the shots.

I'm gonna make a couple of phone calls,

and then I'll meet him like he wants.

Frank, you don't have to do that.

No, I want to now.

He wants to be a tough guy.

Boyer, you're not gonna believe this.

- Believe what?
- IT says

that they lost the file,
said it was a drive failure.

But how do you explain
one file going missing

when an entire drive fails?

And miraculously, the backup
file's gone too. Imagine that.

- What file?
- The video

of Travis at the door of
that Jacob's residence.

It's gone, wiped, erased.
- There's no way.

I've had stuff like this happen before,

so I did what I always do.

I made a copy at my workstation.

That file's gone too.

I am so done right now.

I mean, how do they expect
us to keep doing our job

when stuff like this goes down?

You know where it's coming from too.

Maybe Travis can get us a name.

I don't care anymore.

I'm sorry, but look,
I'm gonna talk to Mary

and if she's okay with it,

I'm out.
- Come on.

This is the last straw Boyer,

I can't do this anymore.

Well, at least you have that
luxury right now, I don't.

Hey, I need you two
down in my office asap.

Something hot just came in
and I want you two on it.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Hey babe, you got like just a second.

You got a stopping point

so I can talk to you about
something real quick?

Yeah, yeah. Just waiting for
these noodles to soften up.

What's up?

I just got off the phone with Travis,

said he need help with one of his cases.

It's paid though, babe.

All right, what is it?

Him, he'll need backup for a take down.

- With guns?
- Come on, baby.

You know I gotta carry a gun.

I'm supposed to be the one protecting him.

You know what? Don't worry about it.

Forget that, I shouldn't
even said nothing.

- No, no. Go.
- Go?

So you're saying you are okay with it?

Babe, you've been moping around here

ever since you resigned.

Okay, I already told you.

If you're not happy.
- I'm happy.

I don't believe that for one second.

I'm happy because I'm
putting what you need first,

and my baby girl too.

Yeah, but I can tell
you really wanna go.

Travis is your friend. You should do it.

I didn't wanna drag you into
this, but I need your help.

I know you've dealt with a
lot of high profile cases.

You're not afraid to take a risk.

So I thought taking down a powerful person

might be right up your alley.

What do you say?
- Oh yeah. I'm all over this.

Which senator are we taking down?

No, I don't know that part yet.

But I want you to spread it all over,

because I don't want to
just mysteriously disappear.

You know? That's why you're here.

Yeah, even if the news won't carry it,

because they are just as
corrupt as the government,

then I will put it on my feed

and it'll spread like wildfire.

That's exactly what I need.

Here is everything I've got so far.

Where do we meet for the take down?

And is your muscle man gonna be there?

Because no offense, but I don't know

if I feel totally safe with just you.

Oh, you mean Tre?

Well, I've reached out to him, but-

Oh, give me his number.
I'll get him here.

I don't think you're following.

I just need you to report what I uncover

after I unmask this person, that's it.

- Well, that's no fun.
- Yeah. None of this is fun.

So you're gonna gimme his number.

Mama's home and I got chicken nug-nugs.

Why you back already?

Travis let us go home early. Yeah.

So I stopped at the store
and I would've called you,

but I left my phone at work.

But I thought that we could
make like chicken cacciatore,

have like a little stay at home date.

And then once Drake goes to sleep.

You know, he's actually
already taking a nap. So-

- You got him to take a nap?
- Yeah.

- Oh, no.
- Jas.

- No. No.
- Jas, listen.

Not doing this to me again.

Jas, listen, listen.
She's just my friend.

I know exactly what she is.

Jamal, you really gonna
do this to me again?

Really? Huh?

Right under my nose
and I just fell for it.

With my son in the other room.

Listen, he's our son.

No, he is not, because
you don't deserve him.

Get out.
- Wait.

Get out, now! Get out!

Hey, hey, hey. Chill out!

Dang! Listen, let me just get my stuff.

And I'll be outta here, all right?

No, you're done. Leave.

You're done. Get out.

You have five seconds to leave, Jamal.

Okay, hey, if that's how you want it,

then that's how I'm gonna give it to you.

Let's go baby girl.

Tell Drake I said bye.

The senator's
willing to meet with you,

10:00 PM one-on-one.

We'll send you the coordinates,
but let me reiterate.

It's just you and him, come alone.

All right, God, I need Your help.

Hey.
- I'm sorry, boss.

I left my phone. I'll be quick.

- Are you okay?
- No, it's nothing.

Hey, seriously, you don't want to talk?

I left Drake with the neighbor. So-

Just, just a sec.

What's going on?

I don't know. I don't know.

Just when I think that
life's starting to line up.

Things are going good,
they get side swiped.

Is this um, it's about a
relationship or dating or?

Drake's daddy.

He did it to me again
and I kicked him out.

I am so sorry.

Here.
- Thank you.

I guess you know the direction
my advice usually takes

in a situation like this.

I'll save it for another time.

This is one time I actually
kind of want to hear it.

I bet that you're a really
good dad and husband.

Oh, I make a lot of stupid mistakes,

you can ask my wife and daughter.

And I usually end up begging God

to help me clean up the mess that I made.

Do you know what the key is?

Like, it's just putting
away my pride and asking.

Is that your fatherly advice?

Go to Him. Give God a chance.

See what He can do.

I'll think about it. Thank you.

You know, you might be my boss,

but it's nice to know
that you actually care.

Yeah, I do care.

Hey, if you do talk to God,
would you mind mentioning me?

All right. Maybe I'll
do it just for you.

Thank you. Good night.

I'm at the pavilion by the oak tree.

He's all yours.

All right, if You wanna
prove that You're real,

now's Your chance,

because I'm in a really
bad spot right now.

I don't understand why You would let him

do this to me, to us.

Maybe I deserve it, but Drake, he doesn't.

And You just keep piling it on him.

He can't talk, and now
he can't have a daddy.

For all my baby has been through,

if You can hear me now,

and if You care, You will make him talk.

Even if You never do anything for me,

You will give my baby boy that much.

Do it, and I'll believe.

One second, babe, Mama's coming out.

Oh, and please help Mr. Travis

with whatever he has
going on with CMI, amen.

You should watch your step, Mr. Travis.

You could hurt yourself
taking a fall like that.

You wanted to meet me. Here I am.

Now let's just put an end
to this charade, shall we?

Hey, I heard you knocking.

Did you wanna talk to me about something?

You want me to play with your truck?

Can you say truck?

- I want your name.
- I am a United States

Senator, for a former detective
that shouldn't be too hard

for you to figure out.

You're a political
hack, bought and paid for.

That's all you are.

So that's what this is about. You.

You threaten my friends at CMI,

a corporation that employs
thousands of citizens

and pays millions in taxes,
to give me a lecture.

Okay, fine. I've heard it.

Will there be anything else?

Yeah, you're going to jail.

Your career is over.

Amusing!

Who's that?

Bae, what's wrong?

I don't know. Maybe you
should have gone, babe.

Don't worry about
him. Sarge a tough dude.

I'm where I'm supposed to be tonight.

You were right about one thing.

Someone's career ends tonight. Arrest him.

Let me see your hands, Gary.

Do you have any weapons on you?

No. Boyer, what's going on?

You should have left it alone hot shot.

Seriously, what are you doing?

You're under arrest.

Hear that big boy.

You went lone ranger and found yourself

in a heap of trouble with the FEDs.

I wasn't talking to him.

Both of you get your hands in the air

right now, both of you.

Okay, couple of turn coats.

Put your hand where I can see it

or I will drop you right now!

Here's your corrupt
government officials, Travis,

in our own department of justice.

You're making a big mistake.

Your careers at the FBI

are over with this blunder,

both of you.
- That's funny.

You hear that Boyer, he
thinks we're gonna get fired.

I can make one phone call

and it won't be just your
jobs, but your lives too.

You will be unemployable anywhere.

You will have no income, no insurance.

- Boyer, look at me.
- I want out,

but I need a job somewhere.

You know, in Washington, you
learn to never trust anyone,

even if they're supposed
to be on your side.

There's two of them, three of us.

It's their word against ours.

You think so?

I've got powerful friends at
every level of government.

Lower your gun and let's
walk away from here

with Travis in handcuffs.

Boyer, look at me. Look at
me, we can do this together.

Don't listen to him. Boyer, I got you.

The Washington DC
scandal unmasked in Texas.

What took you so long?

I don't know what an
oak tree looks like,

especially in the dark.

And be nice, we're live.
- Live, to whom?

Oh, 40,000. Oh wait, 41,000 viewers.

Smile senator.

Nice shot.

Senator, get your hands in the air.

Hands in the air, behind your back.

Senator Frank Hinkley was arrested

and charged with a litany
of public corruption crimes

stemming from a coverup within
the Department of Justice.

The crime, a series of laundering schemes,

which funneled cash into his campaign fund

through his co-conspirators,

executives within the
behemoth CMI corporation.

The suit alleges that a
complex black male conspiracy

may be behind three untimely deaths

within the corporate ranks.

And at the center of the
revelation, a local PI firm,

GT Investigative Services,
under the leadership

of former East Bank Detective Gary Travis,

who helped uncover the scheme.

Did y'all hear that?

We sure did. Are you so proud?

Proud. I'm furious.

Why do we have politicians
behaving like that?

Now my son was a police officer,

and I'll bet you he would've
caught every last one of 'em.

I bet he would've.

Oh, can't we just change the channel?

This news is just too ugly.

I'll change it. What do you wanna watch?

I'll get the remote.

Mom, I'll be back in a second.

So, what do we do now?

- It's new territory for me.
- Same.

Thanks for coming to see my mom.

You know, her memory on the old days

is a lot sharper than the newer stuff.

So, I mean, I'm sure she'll
remember you right away.

Oh yeah. I wanted to come for that.

I also wanted to talk to you

and stuff.
- Yeah.

You know, even though it says

you're not my biological dad,

I'd still like you to
be part of the family.

I mean, if you want.

I'd be all right with that, I guess.

That's great.

Now maybe you can help me

with some of those busted
electronics in the garage.

Oh yeah, I could do that for sure.

Maybe y'all could come visit
me and Deborah at Christmas.

We're not doing much there
at the house and all.

Absolutely. You can count on that.

Oh, here comes trouble.

- You ready for our follow-up?
- Did you hunt me down?

I have my ways.

Yeah. Chelsea, this is
my, old man, Roger Tate.

It's a pleasure.

I've seen you on the TV. You're ruthless.

Only when I have to be.

I'm gonna head inside.

Alright, thanks. So, what's the latest?

Mostly the rich and famous
wanting your contact info.

You are gonna need a bigger office

and more help as a celebrity PI.

Wouldn't that be something?

I bet there are a few arms

I could twist to join me if I need.

We have the van parked

on the other side of the building.

You ready to do this?
- Let's go.

So, if I talk about Jesus,
you gonna cut me off?

We'll see. I may leave in
a little because I like you.

Let's go racers!

Start your engines! Let's go racers!

Boy, I told you not to do that.

You scare mama.
- Mama.
