Kiara, you are my star.

Milestone, you are my moon.

With this ring,

you join the chain of my ancestors that goes back centuries.

Thank you for being mine.

Thank you for being you.

You fill me with love. You fill me with light.

No, no, no, no. See, you play too much. You already know I gotta wake up early.

I gotta open up the gym in the morning.

Tell me why you love this song again.

'Cause the first time I heard it,

I was so struck by it,

I immediately had to figure out who it was by,

so I could listen to it all the time.

Just like the first time I saw you.

I was so struck by you, I had to find out who you were,

so I could find a way to get next to you every single day.

Kinda creepy.

I think you're gonna like how this night ends.

Ah!

When I studied in Benin,

I realized the Vodún teachings my grandmother gave me

connect me to generations of strength, beauty, love.

I want to help others change their perspective on Vodún.

Well, then that's what you should write.

Oh, but changing my dissertation course at this point,

that would set us back so much.

I should just finish it and get a teaching job.

Nah, that's weak.

You gotta write what you love.

The gym is actually doing really good, so we don't have to worry about it.

I got us right now.

Then when them bestseller checks start rolling in...

-I'll be your sugar mama? -Mm-hmm.

I'ma keep my fade tight and my body right, and that's it.

That's all you need to do.

I'll keep you around.

The chain that held me together is broken, Miles.

I am broken.

I can't be fixed.

The rituals about strength and protection don't work.

I don't think I'd be able to carry on without you.

I'd better not mess this up,

or you're gonna put a root on me and stick pins in my voodoo doll.

Keep joking and you might invite the wrath.

Is that what you did?

You put a root on me?

'Cause it does feel like you got me under some kind of spell.

Miles?

Miles?

Hello?

You're not getting my texts?

There was a...

There was...

There was a buzzing sound...

I came out here and the lights weren't working

and the door was open, and then...

And then it wasn't.

But the record player...

The record player was playing on its own.

And it wouldn't stop, and...

I swear it was.

Look, you obviously have had a lot to drink,

so you're probably just hearing things.

I know what I heard, Miles. It wasn't...

Is this you?

You thought you'd play a little joke?

It's not funny.

I don't know what you're talking about.

I sent you at least five texts today, telling you

-I was coming to get my things. - Oh.

We gotta be outta here so the realtor could show the house over the weekend.

Where are the boxes with the rest of my shit? Huh?

'Cause I'm not trying to be stuck here forever.

No, you heard it.

You heard it.

-You heard it. -Whoa, Ki, Ki.

Ki, you good?

Relax, relax. It's fine.

Listen, okay? Just sit down.

-Sit down.

-Just sit down.

You're still wearing it.

Yeah. Sometimes it's just easier.

I should probably stick around for a little bit

and help you get this shit packed and ready to go.

Just leave it.

I can do it myself.

You are not gonna be able to do this yourself.

And you can get rid of that.

You know that record player was my favorite birthday gift?

It's broken.

Just throw it away.

Nothing lasts forever.

Why don't you just get some sleep, Kiara?

I think that's a good idea. I think you should just get some sleep.

I can't sleep.

You know that.

I never sleep.

Oakland, California gives us Miles Williams.

One of the best fighters we've seen out of there in a long time.

This is a nightmare matchup.

-Oh, he's gotta tap. He's gotta tap.

I mean, you hate to see something happen to that much promise.

-Sabrina?

Sabrina? I'm sorry, I can't understand.

Ah! Oh, God!

Miles!

Milestone, you are my moon.

With this ring,

you join the chain of my ancestors that goes back centuries.

You fill me with light.

What's going on here?

That's what I would like to know.

...what I could have possibly done

to make me deserve somebody...

The room didn't just unpack itself, Miles.

This is insane.

Well, the movers are gonna be here in 30 minutes,

so just...

go ahead and go.

I can help. I used to live here, too.

A lot of help this is.

I don't know why you have an attitude.

I'm not the one who spent the whole night reminiscing.

I've got an attitude because this broken record player

must have sent you a message from the ancestors

to come and do a bunch of dumb shit

and empty out all the boxes

that's supposed to be on the moving truck in 30 minutes.

-Wow. -Maybe it wasn't the broken record player.

Maybe it was the vodka that made you do this dumb-ass shit.

Yeah.

That's what it was, Miles.

It was the vodka.

It was crazy, drunk Kiara,

and her masks and her books and her spells.

Yeah, that's what it was.

Crazy, drunk Kiara.

Go on, let crazy Kiara...

take care of everything

in a drunken stupor.

Possessed!

And completely out of her mind.

You know what?

This is turning into something it don't even need to be right now.

Ki...

obviously, you got something you need to say to me, you want to tell me.

You're going about it the wrong way. What's up?

No, why don't you use your words, Miles?

All I have done is talk and talk and tell you,

and try to communicate with you, but you don't listen.

You never fucking listen!

-You've never listened! -All I do is listen!

We went to therapy for months,

and I sat there and I listened, and I listened!

All therapy did was satisfy your hero complex.

"Hero complex." "Narcissism."

All you did was use therapy to get a bunch of new words to use against me.

You watched the words come out of my mouth,

and you refused to hear me!

I tried to help us move forward. What's so bad about that?

Sorry I couldn't move on.

I'm sorry you left.

I can't believe you even said that.

You have no idea how hard it was for me to leave.

Oh, really?

But you still left, Miles.

And now you can pity me from afar and say you didn't crumble.

You wear it like a fucking badge!

-I ain't even-- -What?

What?

Now you feel guilty?

I was willing to forgive you, but you let him come between us.

Fuck you!

The movers are here.

Mrs. Williams?

This don't make any sense.

Mrs. Williams?

Yeah, sorry. Hold on, hold on!

Try the back door?

- Okay.

-You gotta be kidding me.

-It's a nice neighborhood, though. -Yeah.

Yeah, yeah. Really quiet.

Hey!

I mean, who books movers and doesn't show up? It's crazy, right?

Hey! You can't see me?!

-What's the rule? Fifteen minutes? -Yeah.

I'm just gonna leave a note.

- Wait!

-Don't leave me in here! - Wait!

I am sore.

Move.

Open the door!

Open the door!

Open the door!

Do you hear that?

I don't hear shit.

-Miles!

I'm about to go change clothes.

Hello?

- Kiara.

What are you doing?

What are you doing? You okay?

Nothing.

Nothing.

It's nothing.

Are you okay?

What?

I don't...

Mm, it's nothing. I...

I can't...

Well, just say it. What?

I think there's a Vodún spirit in the house.

No, no, no, no.

Don't start with that.

What else could it be, Miles?

I remember a legend in Benin...

about a spirit...

that traps people in the house.

That's bullshit. Just stop.

I'm not crazy.

I'm not crazy, Miles.

You said so yourself. You don't have faith in that anymore.

All the root work this, practitioner shit.

Your ancestors are connected to love.

Because if that was true, we wouldn't even be in this situation at all.

So, do not say that to me.

Think about it, Miles.

What dragged you across the room?

You don't have to believe it for it to be true.

What?

Miles?!

What you in here trying to do? A séance?

Look.

Look at what?

You don't see the symbol?

I see a blank page in a notebook that's on top of a box.

You can't see it?

It's a blank page right there.

It's the Oya.

It represents the African goddess of death and rebirth.

The spirit's trying to communicate with us.

And what are you gonna say to it, Ki?

What are you gonna say to this spirit that's trying to communicate?

Miles.

Do not say anything to me

unless you have an actual plan that's gonna get us outta here.

I already told you what's going on.

That's your problem. You never want to deal with real life,

what's actually in front of you.

You're saying this is my fault?

If you would've taken accountability for your actions,

we would've never ended up in this situation at all.

You literally burnt down every single thing that we built together.

Is that it?

Or is it the fact that every time something gets too hard,

you give up?

Coward.

-I'm a fucking coward? -Yeah.

Good luck dealing with all the shit

that's happening in this house by yourself.

And when this whole thing is over, we never have to see each other again.

What?

What now? What?

-Goddamn!

Oh, shit.

Oh, shit.

-Get down!

Miles.

"Dear Ki,

"AKA, Ki Money.

I can't believe you done broke me down to a guy who writes love letters."

Williams has gotta get his head off the line.

Let's go, Mayhem!

Get up, Williams!

That's a gator walk into a guillotine.

That is a recipe for nighty-nights.

- Come on, Mayhem!

Time! Done.

To your corners! To your corners!

Get up, Williams! Let's go! Come on, Mayhem!

Get your head up and hit him.

You get him on the floor

and then throw some punches.

Use that to your advantage...

"And you know I'm no James Baldwin or Kiara Guillory

"with the words, you feel me?

"But the first time I saw you,

I knew I didn't want to spend another day without you in my life."

Just give him a taste of his own medicine.

Put him on his back.

Keep him on his feet. Push him off...

-You got this.

I don't know who this guy is.

His cornerman's gotta be really proud of him.

He's now got his head off the line.

He's bobbing and weaving.

He's the guy we thought we were gonna see.

Yeah, well, he's setting him up with a double leg.

-And he dunked him.

And now ground and pound.

That's the opposite guy than we saw before.

Ground and pound again.

Well, here comes a rear naked choke.

Way to go, Miles Williams.

-That's a heck of a good fight.

"I was training today,

-"and I couldn't stop thinking about you.

"Like, why is this happening to me?

"It's crazy to be thinking about one person this much.

"Is this normal?

"You're a mysterious vibe I just can't quite put my finger on.

"I feel like I'ma drown in your depth.

"I wish I understood it.

But maybe it's better I can't."

Slip. Slip.

Now remember, you gotta keep your hands up. Come on. Uh!

"I admire your spirit, Ki."

-Oh!

"It's so free.

"It's scary how much I'm wrapped into you.

You know you got me."

"I love you."

"My Milestone.

"I fancy myself a writer, but when I try to find the words

"to express how you make me feel,

"words fail me.

"That's how you know it's true love.

"When I look into your eyes, the world falls away.

"Time stops,

"and I find myself gazing at my wildest dream.

"One I never want to wake up from.

"A dream I want to last forever.

"A dream where I can take flight

"and soar to the highest heights in the safety of your arms,

"where nothing can hurt me.

"And then you smile...

"and I fall in love all over again.

"No one has ever loved me the way you do.

"I love you.

You are my moon."

Kiara.

Kiara.

Kiara.

Hey.

This can't be real.

-Ki!

Ah!

No, no, no, no, no, no!

Ki.

You gotta keep your hands up.

Miles.

You're my North Star.

Miles.

Wait.

Ki.

Kiara.

Wake up.

Hey. Wake up.

Ki.

-Kiara. Kiara, you okay?

Oh, goddamn.

Oh, I have a headache.

Of course you do.

You were probably drinking all day.

People get headaches when they just lay in the house

and fucking drink all day.

What's wrong now?

What do you think is wrong, Ki?

-You laying there, stiff.

I can't even tell if you breathing or not. I thought you...

You thought what?

No. Sorry, baby.

-It's not your lucky day. -Stop.

Stop what?

"Stop, stop. Stop breathing."

-Ki.

-Please. Ki-- -Mm, that'd be a dream come true.

-Why are you doing this to yourself? -Doing what?

Can't take a nap. Can't have a drink.

Have a drink with me.

I cannot keep living like this, Ki.

I'm telling you, I cannot keep doing this.

We gotta figure something out.

'Cause this?

It has to stop.

You can't?

Then don't.

Where are you going?

Where are you going?

Miles?

Stop.

Miles.

Miles!

My Milestone.

Don't do that.

Don't do that to me.

If I stay, then what?

What will it be...

if I stay?

Fine.

You wanna go?

Go.

-I'm sorry. -Miles.

Miles. Miles!

How did I get right here?

You're okay.

I don't...

What are you doing?

What is that?

This is my grandmother's book of spells.

These are all unfinished.

Oh, Miles. I don't know.

There's my mom's handwriting.

Looks like she was trying to translate some notes.

She used to do these meditations.

-Like rituals? -Yeah, like healing rituals.

But I was so young when she died, I...

never really held on to it.

She was a great teacher.

Yeah, I wish I could have met her.

She would've loved you.

I tried to conjure her spirit once, when I was 16.

I wasn't powerful enough.

Did you ever try to conjure another spirit?

No.

Hold on.

What?

I can't believe I was gonna give this away.

The notes say millet flour...

water...

and something personal,

like this amethyst necklace my mom gave me...

...could help lead me to my ancestors.

I found our old love letters.

Oh, no. How corny were they?

-They were really sweet. -So, super corny?

They reminded me of how we used to be.

When did we stop fighting for each other like that?

We should get started.

-Is this that sage shit? -Yeah.

I know you don't like it,

but the notes say we need to stay open and receive.

We never know what will be revealed in this realm.

Are you sure you want to do this?

We give thanks to the ancestors and the most high.

Focus on our connections to the moments.

The song.

The visions.

The chaos. All of it.

What do you need us to know? What are you trying to tell us?

Ki, what's wrong?

Ki, are you okay?

-Oh, shit!

Kiara.

Ki!

Ki!

Am I dead?

No. You're in our sacred place.

It's not your time to join us yet.

Who are you?

I'm a link in the chain of the Guillory women

that live yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

I'm so lost.

You know you must rejoin the chain.

But you can't do it alone.

The moon needs its star.

All that you need is sitting beside you now.

All you have to do is listen.

Listen...

It's time for you to truly embrace us.

"Dear Miles.

"I failed you.

"I failed us.

"The story wasn't supposed to end this way,

"but the weight of it all is unbearable.

"I don't wanna be here anymore.

"I have to end it all.

I'm so sorry."

I think I found a way for us to get out of here, Miles.

You wanna kill yourself?

Where are you going?

I find your suicide note, and you don't wanna talk about it?

Ki.

Ki?

So, what was all this for?

Was it just a show?

All the packing and the selling the house?

I took care of everything.

I did everything, so that you wouldn't have to worry about anything.

You did not take care of everything. You took care of everything except you.

I couldn't--

There was nothing left to take care of, Miles.

I was devastated every morning...

because I woke up from the night before.

Do you know what that's like?

I hate who I am.

I can't stand to look at myself.

I am not the same person you married.

That's okay.

I'm not the same man that you married.

I just wanted you to come to me.

That's it.

I gotta finish this.

I know you don't believe any of this.

Whatever's in this house needs to know we honor it.

Bring the bottle tree so the evil spirits know to stay away.

The Nyame Dua will tell our ancestors we need their protection.

Crystals will channel our connection.

The circle of my mother's salt.

Candles will light our way.

Join me in the circle.

I'll try and remember the dance I saw in Benin

that helped the matriarchs connect with their spirits.

I think you're gonna like how this night ends.

I have a surprise for you.

Suspense.

Alright, what?

I love you.

I love you, too.

I love you so much.

You are my moon, Milestone.

And we are so blessed to have this marriage and this love.

I-- I feel like the luckiest woman in the world.

And now...

we get to grow our tribe.

Are we pregnant?

Wait, let me see. Hold on!

You-- You can't hear the heartbeat yet.

-My child has a strong heartbeat.

I could probably hear it.

My God, I love you so much.

Come in for a water landing.

Okay, Jeremiah! It's party time. Let's get you dressed.

Aw, Mom, can I swim for a little bit longer, please?

-Please?

You wanna open up one of your gifts early?

- Happy birthday! - Happy birthday!

It's a Bell P-39 Airacobra remote-control plane!

Yes, it is!

Now I can practice all my flight maneuvers!

- Whoo!

It's just like the Tuskegee Airmen.

I've always wanted one! Thank you. I love you so much.

-We love you, J. -Aw.

We love you, baby.

-Oh, are you so happy? - Yeah, so super.

- Aw. - My little Tuskegee Airman!

Sit down. Let's take it for a test spin.

This is First Lieutenant Jeremiah Williams.

Williams mission...

...assignment, do you copy?

I copy. This is air traffic control.

And I have your first mission ready, First Lieutenant Jeremiah Williams.

Only if you choose to accept it. Do you choose to accept your mission?

Please let me know with a strong "copy."

May I... ...hear the mission first?

Uh, yeah, yeah, your first mission is to have an amazing birthday.

Can you handle that mission?

Of course I can, air traffic control. Mission gladly accepted.

-Roger that. - But if you're gonna fly as fast

as a Bell P-39 Airacobra, you might need this.

-Another one?!

Oh, another one before it was time to open up the gifts?

Come on. Birthdays only come once a year.

- Ooh, how does it look, Mama?

The most handsome little pilot I ever saw.

- Oh!

What time is it? I gotta...

- It's time to go. -Oh, wait. Hold on.

-This is air traffic control. Go for me. -What's happening?

Oh, unfortunately, I have to make another pit stop.

Gotta pick up a few things.

But fly safe in my absence, please. Do you copy?

-Good gracious!

-Thank you for enjoying our party anyway.

Fly safe. I'll be right back.

Mwah.

Okay, bye.

Okay, Lieutenant, we gotta get you dressed.

You gotta be fresh for your birthday!

Oops, forgot Fren.

Excuse me, First Lieutenant. No flying in the house.

-Aw, Mom, please? -I'm serious, baby. Mwah.

Airmen only fly in the open sky.

-Hi, Sabrina. - Hi, Kiara.

How's it going?

Have you thought about your next book?

Oh, my God, yes! I--

- Really? -Absolutely.

-I... I have so many ideas

about how to expand the world and the characters.

Great, because the publisher wants to put you on a book tour.

Mommy, I almost did it!

Jeremiah, I'm on a call. I said no flying in the house.

Go out front, and I'll watch you from the window, okay?

Okay.

I love you.

Yeah, sorry. He's just--

He's really excited about his gift.

Ah, yes! Monday's great.

I would love that.

Flying over Benin.

Ah! Oh, my God, Sabrina!

-The New York Times? - Mm-hmm.

-They actually said that? - Verbatim.

-Oh, my God.

Yes.

Okay, so let's set up a call.

-Yes. Absolutely.

Okay. When? Yeah.

This is First Lieutenant Jeremiah and Second Lieutenant Fren

starting nosedive in T-minus three...

-...two, one.

Oh, no.

Kiara, The New York Times is calling you "the voice of the future."

Thank you so much for believing in me, Sabrina.

Yeah, I'm gonna get back to cooking for this little man's party.

Of course.

Okay, talk soon.

Mission Control, Daddy is back with the goods!

What's wrong?

Sabrina just called and...

said she just booked me a book tour!

-That's amazing!

Well, let's get the party started, then.

-Yes. -Where's J?

He's out front.

No, he's not.

-You didn't see him? -No.

Jeremiah!

Buddy!

God!

He's not out there.

Where is this boy?

Probably hiding again. Jeremiah!

Jeremiah, come on. It's party time!

Jeremiah?

If you want birthday cake, you gotta come out!

Okay, come out, baby. You know I don't like it when you do this.

Jeremiah!

- No!

Oh! Oh! Oh, God! Come on, baby.

Come on.

Here, take him, take him.

Come on, baby. No! No.

Call 911!

Baby. Call 911!

-No! -Is he breathing?

Yeah, so we just pulled my son out of the pool.

Ki, is he breathing yet? Keep pumping!

-Keep pumping his chest! -Oh, God!

-I need you to get here right now, please!

J, can you hear me?

-Breathe, buddy. Breathe. -Come on, baby!

It's not playtime anymore.

Let me try. Jeremiah.

It's okay. No, it's okay.

-Okay...

What do I do? What did I do?

Somebody help us!

Oh, no!

J! Breathe!

Come on, breathe, buddy. Breathe!

No! No!

No, no, no!

No!

We can't wait. We can't wait.

Come on, we can't wait. Let's go!

Let's go. Let's go.

It's all my fault.

Don't say that.

I stopped watching him for 60 seconds...

and he was gone.

I'll never hear him say,

"I love you, Mommy."

I'll never kiss his forehead again.

I'll never kiss his cheek.

I'm not a mother anymore.

You'll always be his mother.

Just like I'll always be his father, no matter what.

I couldn't bring myself to say this to anybody...

but after the accident, I, um...

...I kept having this dream

about Jeremiah and, um...

In the dream, he was in the pool.

But he was, like... he was happy.

He was laughing, he was smiling. He was all...

He was asking me all kind of random questions,

insisting I call him First Lieutenant.

He's so beautiful in the dream.

He's perfect in the dream. Perfect.

And then I'd, um...

I wake up and I'm in cold sweats.

So, it just got to the point where, like...

...I was scared to go to sleep

because...

I'd wake up and he'd still be...

So, it was almost worse, like seeing him all the time,

and then waking up, and he's not...

He's not...

But then...

I was losing you at the same time.

So, when you called me a coward, you were right.

Because...

I was scared that I was gonna break.

And just...

I didn't know how to handle it.

I didn't know what to do, so I said I was moving forward.

But really, I was just scared.

I didn't know you were hurting so much.

I was so wrapped up in my own pain.

I'm so tired.

I'm so tired, Miles.

I know you are, too.

I'm exhausted, Ki.

Absolutely exhausted.

You're the smart one, but I know we gotta find a way to get past this.

We gotta forgive ourselves for all of it.

Hi, Mommy.

Don't cry. Don't be sad.

I'm not sad, baby.

I'm not sad. I'm so happy to see you.

Hi, Daddy.

I can't believe you're here.

I'm always here with you.

I wanted to help you and Daddy stay together.

It was you the whole time?

I had to fix the chain that connects us.

I get to fly whenever I want now.

I miss you so much.

I love you.

I'm so sorry.

It's okay. It's not your fault.

Thank you.

Fly with the ancestors, baby.

First Lieutenant Jeremiah Williams.

You have done a phenomenal job with your mission.

You did it.

It was you.

My moon.

My North Star.
