All language subtitles for Beyond the Gates s01e174.eng

Boom! Who's the king now?

What?

I was just about to level up.

It's not fun when someone
steals from you, is it?

I don't know who stole
my last Greek yogurt,

but it had to be you.

You know I can't dip without it.

I ate the yogurt.

I wanted to avoid an energy lag.

I'll go to the store later.

Why didn't you just say so, Dad?

It's hard to get a word in with
World War Siblings going on.

Hey, I could hear you guys
yelling from outside.

Samantha's escalating
about a missing yogurt

into The Hunger Games.

That's not true.

She's triggered all the time.

I'm the only one banned from screens

while the rest of you live
your best digital lives.

It's literally a slow and painful death.

If you were literally dying,

all your organs would be shutting down

and then you'd be going pale.

Pallor mortis, then livor mortis.

All your blood flows down to
your lower parts of your body.

And, finally, rigor mortis.

All your muscles stiffen up.

MARTIN AND SMITTY: We get it.

Ew.

In all my years coming here, I've never.

What's her problem?

- I messed up another order.
- Oh.

No need to bite your head off.

It's food.

Delicious food, but it's not

a matter of life or death for the customer.

Hmm, in this case, it was.

Her husband's got high blood pressure

and type 2 diabetes.

I handed him a plate of death.

Someone else's smothered pork chops,

candied yams, potato salad,

instead of the low-salt salmon croquettes

and side salad she ordered
off the healthy menu.

What if I sent her husband to ICU?

That woman would have never
let that food pass his lips.

It's human nature
to make mistakes, hmm?

It should be human nature to
be graceful in the face of them,

especially when someone
expresses remorse.

Hmm. Making mistakes has gotten
way too natural for me.

I almost got fired once already.

Spirit's a big part of the job.

Yours is megawatt.

Mm-hmm. It makes up for a lot.

You're the kindest.

Now, what can I do for you?

Two pieces of peach cobbler to go.

Again?

That's twice a week on the regular.

You and the missus are
developing quite a sweet tooth.

??

Congrats on taking the job at Banneker.

How are you liking it so far?

It is good to be working.

I'm still adjusting to being home.

And this place definitely
has more atmosphere

than Orphey Gene's,
but it's not exactly private.

Well, private enough for us to
get to know each other better.

And Orphey Gene's is a vibe.

Many love stories have bloomed
in those booths.

When I was working for Nicole,
she told me that her parents

have had more late nights there
than any fancy hangout in D.C.

Well, if it's good enough
for the senator and the diva.

Downright iconic.

Note to self,
do not sleep on Orphey Gene's.

Exactly. Look, I have had dreams
about that rib platter. Mm!

Ah. [Laughs]

Also noted.

And full disclosure,
I grew up on Orphey Gene's.

Yeah, my brothers and I
squeezed into those booths,

mouths watering, so excited

we could barely contain ourselves

because we were about to be fed.

Kind of like how I feel right now.

? Let's get closer ?

? Closer to... ?

Ah. Don't stop on my account.

[laughs]

I was just messing.

I didn't know you were
an Articulettes Stan.

I didn't know you knew "Stan."

Ah, Samantha keeps me up with
what all the kids are saying.

Generally after they've
stopped saying it, but I try.

Anita the Great graced us
with her presence yesterday,

and I am still trying to come down.

You've known Anita forever.

Since when were you starstruck?

Since always.

But seeing her after the reunion
hits different.

I just wish I had
my concert program on me

so she can sign her autograph
next to Tracy and Sharon's.

Well, I'd offer to hook you up,
but my former mother-in-law

is no longer taking my calls.

I'm sure my path will cross
with Queen Anita again.

Mm.

Is everything all right with Anita?

She doesn't come here normally
to visit Nicole, but...

Well, she came to her this time.

- Hmm.
- Mm-hmm.

Well, glad everything is okay.

You know, I still feel
like the Duprees are family.

I wish everything good for them

even though the feeling
may not be mutual.

The Duprees seem as good
as they are fancy,

and I bet there's still a lot
more love there than you think.

Now, enough stalling.
I deserve an update

on your almost sparring partner.

Carlton? Eva's got us running like trains.

I've barely even seen him.

Well, you can't keep that up forever.

We can during this cooling-off period.

Ah, sticking with the high road,
leaving the nurses high and dry.

We don't get to see
you and Carlton throw down.

And I don't get to see you
take your turn as ring girl.

- I mean announcer.
- Mm-hmm.

I promised you I'd work on my behavior,

and I'm trying my damnedest
to make my word good again.

Oh, well, you are making progress.

- Hmm.
- [laughs]

WOMAN [over P.A.]: Dr. Yates, dial 241.

Dana.

Are you all right? Is it Eva?

[crying]: It's not Eva. It's Peaches.

First dates start off slow.

You know,
"What books are you reading?"

"What movies are you streaming?"

"What are you looking for
in a relationship?"

Not a deep dive into my last hookup.

Well, we'll get to those.

But first, I want to know
who's on your radar

now that you've given up the ghost,

i.e., your sister's man.

Half sister.

I like direct.

Maybe a girl wants to hold on
to a little mystery.

I'm not ready to reveal the identity

of my new love interest.

Okay. Well, how about I guess,

and you tell me when I'm
getting colder or hotter?

Mm. Well, you are
definitely getting hotter.

[giggles]

But go ahead, shoot your shot.

- Mystery man or mystery woman?
- Mm.

You think it's like that?

I don't assume.

I'm here to find out how
wide-ranging your tastes are.

Well, he's definitely all man.

Tell me about him.

Well, he's got serious drip.

He's no stranger to the gym,
so he's not hiding

under baggy clothes.

Check.

He's confident, bordering on cocky.

Let's see.

Never felt the sting
of impostor syndrome,

never been much for bowing down,
so check again.

And he is fine as hell.

And that makes the trifecta.

[both laughing]

There are a ton of brothers in
the DMV who can check my boxes.

What makes you so sure that I'm
not talking about one of them?

No doubt you could have your pick

since you are the trifecta as well.

You want to know why
I'm in with a chance?

Why?

I do not see any of those
other brothers here right now.

? Holy water. ?

How about we let Dad work

and us three...
we get some Frisbee time?

TYRELL AND SAMANTHA: What?

That's a compromise?

[scoffs] We used to chase
that thing around the park

all the time.

When we were into SpongeBob

and Samantha was obsessed
with Bratz dolls.

I like the way you're thinking,
but it's November in D.C.

It's like 40 degrees.

Oh, we would throw the football
around every Thanksgiving.

And what's the scarves and gloves

and those puffy coats for?

They're there to make us look good.

Pop, you know we're more indoor cats.

[sighs] I'm trying here.

How's this?

Let's abandon frozen Frisbee time

and get our freeze on at Orphey Gene's.

Milkshake break?

What about your assignment?

It'll keep.

Listen, I know that you
hate this, but we love you.

That's what this is about.

A milkshake's not a phone.

And I'd rather stay home.

I just jumped off
in the middle of my game.

Since when have you
turned down Orphey Gene's?

Since Jessica's on her way over here.

To study.

I told you about this
last night, remember?

Yeah, she can join us at Orphey Gene's.

We'll get you your own table.

Because there's no way we're
leaving you alone with her.

- Thanks a lot, sis.
- My pleasure.

Okay, I'll fess up.

Both pieces of cobbler are for me.

[both laughing]

Well, it's good to know you're not perfect.

I have a recipe from my big mama
that you could give to Anita.

It replaces the sugar with honey.

Now you're sending me to my death.

Oh, my big mama's cobbler's
much healthier.

If Rowena or Anita caught me

with somebody else's cobbler
in the oven,

screams would reverberate
all over Fairmont Crest.

- [laughs]
- It'd be tantamount to adultery.

Oh.

Besides, I... I'd hate to lose my status

as the mayor of Orphey Gene's.

Mm.

Nah, we wouldn't want that.

- Keep your chin up, June.
- Yes, sir.

Oh. Senator Dupree.

Sorry, wasn't looking where I was going.

You're friends with
my great-grandson, aren't you?

- Yes, sir. I'm Jessica.
- Aw.

Nice to see you again.

? You're not giving up... ?

Ah. Hello there, Jessica.

If you're looking for Tyrell,
he hasn't been around today.

Oh, he just texted me.

He's on the way over
with Samantha and the dads.

Huh. You're usually lit up
like a Christmas tree

when you're about to see my...
that cute boy of ours.

But you look like
one of those bulbs has gone out

and you're trying to figure out
which one is short-circuiting.

If you want to talk about it,

the mayor just told me
I'm a great listener.

That's really sweet of you.

It's just...

Listen.

What's going on with Peaches?

[crying]: The idea of the only mother

that I have ever known
laid up in that hospital bed,

I can't...

O-Okay. Yes, she's been admitted.

What-what are her symptoms?

Um.

- Sh-shortness of-of breath...
- Okay, okay.

And s-swollen legs.

And those are all signs
of her heart giving out, Ted.

- I-I can't lose her.
- What? [Stammers]

- I can't lose her, Ted.
- They can be,

but that doesn't mean that they are.

- Okay. I can't lose her, Ted.
- Okay, okay, okay.

Don't go there. Don't go there.

But you know
she's got a death sentence.

I mean, it's like time is
just speeding up, damn it.

We don't know that yet.

Look, let's get some facts
and see what's going on.

Shanice, can you pull
Peaches' chart, please?

Of course, Dr. Richardson.

- Okay.
- Uh, here she is.

She's in cardiac ICU.

- The attending's Dr. Wilkes.
- Okay. Ah.

Dr. McBride was
the best surgeon in the DMV.

Rest his soul.

Now you're telling me that Peaches

has to have some runner-up?

Your mother is in excellent hands.

I want to hear what the doctor has to say.

Shanice is right.
Dr. Wilkes is well-versed

in the latest procedures
and treatment options.

I would trust him
with my own mother's heart.

[phone chimes]

Sorry, I-I need to check on a patient.

- Shanice...
- I-I've got this.

Okay. All right.

I'm sending an alert to Dr. Wilkes

that Peaches' family
needs to speak with him.

You'll feel a lot more
comfortable after you meet him.

Maybe my words got drowned out

by the fluttering
of those fake lashes before,

but if I wanted your opinion,

I would have asked for it.

You got a lot going on.

You're new to part of
your family, new to your job.

Yeah, but it seems like you got
everything under control.

Plus, you got a lot of guys circling.

But you're looking for the right man,

just like I'm looking for the right woman.

The rest is luck.

You feeling lucky?

Right time, right place.

Right woman.

Ooh!

You are smooth.

I'll give you that.

What else will you give me, Eva?

Whatever you get from me,
Izaiah Hawthorne,

you're gonna have to earn.

Sorry about our date.

The house isn't big enough
for us and Samantha's pout.

??

Oh, our boy looks like he's in love.

Could they be any cuter?

Almost as cute as when
we first fell for each other.

I know that eye roll wasn't
for the lovebirds,

especially when you sat here
nudging your brother

to beg her for a second chance.

It's not fair.

Everyone's living their best lives

while I'm grounded for the rest of mine.

Have you ever heard
of helicopter parents?

Well, my dads are like drone dads now.

This, too, shall pass.

There are worse things in the world

than having two dads who care.

I'll take these.

[laughs] Milkshakes to start?

With whipped cream and cherries?

- Is there any other way?
- Thank you.

I will put our order in.

Hey. How's your day going?

Better now.

Strawberry with whipped cream
and cherries for Samantha.

Cookies and cream for Tyrell.

- You got it.
- Yes.

I can remember their orders.

Now, for you and Martin?

Um, Martin will have strawberry,
same toppings,

and I will do chocolate.

And it looks like Tyrell
might need an extra straw.

[chuckles] Got it.

Uh, hey, wait.

What'd I forget?

I forgot to thank you.

For taking your order?

For saving my family.

How was she?

How do you think?

She's really sick.

Well, I'm here
if there's anything you need.

What I need is for Peaches
to get out of that hospital bed

and back on her feet,

not looking all pale and wheezing

and looking like she's about
to go to the next life

because she's tired of living in this one.

Okay, so your question was just
uncalled-for and unnecessary.

I am just doing my job.
No need to get your back all up.

I will get my back
wherever the hell I please.

Excuse me?

I have paid this hospital a hefty check.

One that can buy me the kind of respect

that I demand from people like you.

- No one buys me.
- DR. WILKES: Nurse Johnson.

I can take it from here.

- Ms. Thomas, I'm Dr. Wilkes.
- Oh, yeah, I know who you are.

Where were you?
My mother is in distress.

Sorry, there was an emergency in, uh...

Oh, with a more important patient?

Someone who's probably
a friend of the hospital?

Yeah? So special.

I treat all my patients equally.

Bad answer.

We all know how it really works
around here, don't we?

So I'll tell you what I expect, Doctor.

I expect VIP for Peaches.

Okay? VIP treatment.

And I need you to tell me
every single thing

that you are going to do

to help the only mother
that I have ever known.

I believe in putting in the work.

I'm gonna enjoy getting
to know you, Eva Thomas,

if you'll allow me the honor.

It's not every day
I come across somebody

this fine and this worth knowing.

It's a nice talk,
but there are some questions

that can only be answered
through actions.

Mm. Do I have permission to act?

? Yeah, yeah, I did it my way ?

? Now I never, ever
have another sad day ?

? Yeah, and I treat my life
high-speed like a drag race ?

? Indeed... ?

So, we've been managing her condition

since the initial diagnosis,
but this morning she presented

with an acute exacerbation
of congestive heart failure.

The-the leg swelling
and the difficulty breathing,

those are symptoms which we're
currently working to mitigate.

So you're saying she's getting worse.

So what are you going to do about that?

Well, we're currently giving her
an I.V. of furosemide.

That should help take down
the swelling and allow her

to breathe better.

She'll be with us for a few days

until she's hopefully stable again.

[scoffs]

Okay, so you just hang a bag of medicine

and just send her on home?

That isn't a cure, Doctor.

And-and are you in any of those

those big-time medical journals
that have been published,

like Doug McBride?

Yeah, I am, actually. And feel
free to look up my credentials.

I want the best doctor
that money can buy.

I am the customer, and
the customer is always right.

And this customer wants
another opinion.

With all due respect, Ms. Thomas,

this isn't a shopping mall.

Medications and lifestyle modifications

can greatly improve the outcome
of Peaches' condition,

and I'm happy to help you
go over all of her options.

And I encourage you, please,
get a third opinion.

I'm afraid they're gonna
tell you what I just did.

Lashing out at the people taking
care of her is not the move.

That's like spitting at the waiter

right before he goes to get your order.

Nurses are supposed to anticipate, right?

So you can't see that
your little nosy bedside manner

is getting on my last good nerve?

Aren't you supposed to be somewhere

wiping somebody's dirty...

You know what, listen, I am not

the one or the two,
and what I won't stand for

is you coming up in my hospital,
insulting my staff.

Now, Dr. Wilkes is more qualified

than any of those wigs
or personas you have.

I hope you feel good about yourself.

Because, uh, all those little words

oh, yeah, we're gonna make sure
that you regret them.

You know what?
I don't have time for this.

Maybe your money will get me in trouble,

but until it does, I'm going to deliver

every single one of my patients 100%,

no matter who their play daughter is.

At the risk of sounding conceited,

I'm gonna say
that was one for the books.

It was a'ight.

[both laughing]

You don't know your power, do you?

You can take a guy
to the highest of heights

and pierce his ego in seconds.

I could have sworn that ego was
spill-proof and fire tested.

Mm, not after that kiss.

[both laugh]

But if I didn't bring it for you...

[laughs] The look on your face.

You know I felt it.

But points off for not letting
the kiss speak for itself.

And the way you deflect compliments

makes me think
you haven't had nearly enough.

I'll judge when I've had enough.

Well, maybe you need
to sample the goods again

so you can make an informed choice.

[phone vibrating]

Sorry, Mama.

You were saying?

[phone vibrating]

Somebody's persistent.

Understatement of the century.

I think you should get it.

Hey, Mama. Um, I have that thing
I was telling you about.

Remember?

Baby, I'm at the hospital.

It's Peaches.

Mama, no.

Is she...?

You're the Samantha whisperer.

Is it horrible that I don't mind seeing her

be just a little bit of a brat?

It lets me know that I didn't ruin her,

that she's still a kid,

not some careful little adult
I turned her into.

Tyrell, too.

You didn't ruin anything.

You gave us a gift, and for that
I will be forever grateful.

My debt to you and Martin is bone-deep.

I was scared

when you came back into their lives.

You weren't sure if I was
going to be a danger to them.

No, I knew that you had turned
your life around.

I was afraid that they would
love you more than us

because you were their real parent.

Blood doesn't make you a parent.

Love does. Care does.

You and Martin are their fathers
in every sense that matters,

and that's not going to change.

Not because I showed up

and definitely not because
of a spat you had

over some trifling little boy.

I couldn't wrap my head around how

you couldn't pull yourself together

when you had these two beautiful
souls as your inspiration.

I asked myself that a million times.

That was wrong of me.

The courage that you had to let them go.

When I look at them,
I know I got that right.

They're on the verge of doing things

I never could have led them to.

Not just the big fancy
name schools or modeling

but the fine young man and
young woman they are becoming.

You and Martin did that.

Thank you.

And thank you for showing us
that we were never

in any danger of losing them to you.

And also thank you for
everything that you've added

to all of our lives.

You've got to stop talking now,

or I'm going to be crying
into those milkshakes.

I just want you to know

that Tyrell and Samantha are exactly

where they're supposed to be.

I'm never going to get in the way of that.

- Granddad.
- VERNON: Martin?

You got a second?

Of course.

Well, it's official.

We're deep in college mode.

I got a text from

Izaiah Hawthorne, and he's gonna
stop by the brownstone

and talk to Tyrell about Banneker.

Oh, that's wonderful news.

Listen, I hate to cut this short, but I'm...

I'm already late for a
WinterFest sponsorship meeting.

- It never ends, does it?
- [laughing]: No.

Talk to you later.

Okay.

Yum. I've got to thank your dads.

It's the least they can do
for ruining our date.

I would have ruined it anyway.

What's up?

[sighs] I can't sit with
the parentals one minute longer.

That doesn't mean you can sit with us.

Tyrell.

I don't see what you see in my bro.

I don't see what's going on with you.

I mean, it's like you got the guy mixed up

with someone you hate
instead of the hero he is.

You think he's capable
of leaping over anything

in a single bound?

Jessica, don't bother.

Samantha's been buffering
in witch mode

since the Nathan incident.

The Nathan incident?

You told her?

I would have found out either way.

What?

Yeah. If you lost your "V" card to Nathan,

he would have posted it
all over his socials.

He wouldn't.

You didn't tell her?

- I didn't want to hurt her feelings.
- What?

What's going on?

[sighs]

On Halloween, we ran into Nathan.

He was blabbing on the phone
about how he was this close

to scoring with you,

only you got grounded.

And then your super bro stepped up

and nearly challenged him to a duel.

So, trust me, you dodged a major creep.

Why didn't you tell me?

I was hoping you'd forget about him

before you were un-grounded.

[sighs] He's not worthy.

And, plus, no one gets to insult
my sister except, well

me.

You and our favorite waitress
looked heavy.

What's up?

Uh... overdue.

But I get it now.

Well, I got it when Samantha ran to her

when she was upset
about the ChelseaKat situation.

And she's not trying to steal our kids?

It sounds dumb
when you say it out loud, but

yeah.

I am ready to accept June
as part of our kids' lives.

And part of our family.

Shouldn't we be at the hospital?

Oh, the ICU is limiting
her visitors so she can rest.

She's sleeping now.

Well, how bad is it?

Well, they, uh

they're giving her medicine

to alleviate the symptoms.

That gonna stabilize her?

But it's not enough.

I mean, we've got
to get Peaches a miracle.

And I'm talking about the kind
that our money can buy.

I mean, can you buy a new heart?

What-what about one
of those, uh, robotic ones?

I mean, I'm not gonna lose her.

I-I'm not, Eva.

Mama, it's good to see you
pouring all your love

in trying to save her.

Where do we start?

Okay, I've been looking up specialists,

and there's a, a, um

a heart failure hospital.

Ooh, I've heard good things
about Inova Fairfax.

Yeah, but should we move her

before this episode is over, though?

Maybe we can bring a doctor to her?

I mean, did you talk to him
about drug trials yet?

The-the science is advancing.

There could be something
that could extend her life

even more than what
they're offering at Garland.

I think we need Ted.

What? Why?

How much does Ted know from
all those years of practicing?

As a plastic surgeon?

He's a doctor, all right?

And he's family.

And I trust him.

Mama.

I trust him with Peaches. And he was

very kind to me just now.

But asking this of him is too much.

It's not even his specialty.

And it would be better if you just...

Okay, listen,

if I ask Ted,
he will want to help me, okay?

End of discussion.

Now

tell me all about your date.

But Peaches. [Scoffs]

Baby, we have a game plan. All right?

I will check on her
as soon as ICU permits.

Now, can you please start
from the beginning?

And don't you dare leave anything out.

Okay. As you know,

we started off at Orphey Gene's,

but that wasn't really fitting our vibe.

And so he took me to Uptown.

And then we hung.

I felt like he could keep up, you know?

Like whatever I said, he was right there.

- No slack, you know?
- Mm.

Please tell me you did not leave
that man's presence

without sampling the goods.

Well, we were interrupted.

Mm. Lord,

you cannot be my child

if you let that tenderoni get out of there

and you didn't get a proper smooch.

Oh, we smooched.

But it wasn't all that proper.

Ooh. [Giggles]

Hey.

Did you lose a patient?

No. I almost killed a patient's loved one.

Dana.

I am a professional.

My bedside manner is the best.

A little gossip, a little stern, a little fun.

I am unshakable.

But that lunatic of yours,

she almost made me lose my religion

and everything that makes me
the best damn nurse in D.C.

So you were trying to tell me something

before Samantha-zilla descended on us?

That had to happen.

Maybe she'll finally get over Nathan.

I hope so.

But don't leave me in suspense.

I applied to UCLA.

Oh. Okay.

What if I get in?

My parents went there.

And so did my dad's parents.

It's like tradition.

They can't make you go.

I mean, if you don't want to.

Is UCLA your dream, too?

I don't know what I want.

If I say no, it's like I'm
spitting on my family's history.

Plus, they have a killer theater program.

- So does Banneker.
- Yeah, I applied there, too.

I'll apply to UCLA.

But you know staying close to home

and close to my fam matters to me.

Yeah. And making my parents
proud matters to me.

Right.

Okay, so if you're here
and I go off to L.A.,

what's that mean for us?

Is there even an us
if we're that far apart?

MARTIN: I hate to crash your study date,

but we've got to kidnap Tyrell.

We're kind of in the middle of something.

Izaiah is meeting us at the house

to talk to you about Banneker.

It's a family friend who just started

- as an academic adviser there.
- It's fate.

Or luck.

Or, at the very least, something good.

Isn't that cool?

Yeah. So cool.

There you go.

[sighs]

[plates rattling]

Ooh. [Chuckles]

Little trouble on the dismount.

I wasn't trying to listen,

but I can't help but hear.

You're not going to break
my boy's heart, are you?

I don't want to break either of our hearts.

I mean, I like him more
than I've ever liked anyone.

But Tyrell's dream school is Banneker,

and my parents' dream school
for me is UCLA.

Tyrell and his Juliet will be
separated by 3,000 miles.

My bestie and her boyfriend

they went to separate schools.

They couldn't even last to Thanksgiving.

I mean, Tyrell and I
are so happy, but we're,

so new.

What if it's better to just get out now

before either of us gets really hurt?

MARTIN: Tyrell,

meet Izaiah Hawthorne.

Always happy to meet
a future Banneker Lion.

Thanks, Mr. Hawthorne.

[chuckles] Call me Izaiah.

MARTIN: Well, me and Smitty

don't want to intrude,

so we'll wait in the kitchen.

- Can we get you anything to drink, Izaiah?
- No, I'm good.

- Thank you.
- Okay.

From what I hear, I'm in
the presence of chess royalty.

- I do okay.
- [chuckles]

Well, someone
with your skills and grades

would be a perfect fit for Banneker.

- You think so?
- Oh, yeah.

Absolutely. But what's more important

is if Banneker's a perfect fit for you.

Before we get started, why don't
you hit me with any questions

you have before I give you my spiel?

This is probably beyond the scope

of what I'm supposed to ask.

Lay it on me.

My girlfriend might be going to UCLA.

How am I supposed
to make it work with her

if I go to Banneker?

I feel you, Tyrell. [Chuckles]

My girlfriend just dumped me.

Oh, man.

That's tough.

That's the thing about life

endings, even the ones that gut you,

can always lead to better beginnings.

I hate Dana put you through that.

- I will talk her down.
- No need.

I explained everything to my supervisor.

- I'll be fine.
- Just saying,

no matter how much money
she's slinging around,

- you're invaluable.
- I don't need you

or anyone to referee for me.

She's not the first difficult
family member I've dealt with.

I can see that.

But you really are a force.

[scoffs]

Some may argue I'm too much of one.

Well...

They'd be wrong.

[clears throat] - I'll, uh,
I'll go check on Peaches.

Mm.

- Ted?
- Yes.

Do you want to tell me

what it was?

What do you mean?

What you ever saw in Leslie.

- Tell me. Come on, tell me, tell me.
- [giggles]

It was fire.

But it was just a kiss,

- and I don't want to make too much of it.
- Oh, no.

No, no. Mm-mm, girl,
we are not gonna jinx this.

- No.
- [chuckles]

But, baby, you know, us Thomas women,

we do have good things
happen to us, right?

So tell me this.

Was it good enough for you to
wash Tomas all up out your head?

- Hmm?
- Tomas who?

- [squeals, laughs]
- [laughs] Okay?

- Yes.
- Look, okay, well,

I have some things
I have to handle for work.

- Okay?
- All right.

So call me if anything changes

and let me know
when I can see Peaches.

I will.

As soon as I see her,

I will let you know

and I will give her your love.

- Okay. Do that.
- Mm-hmm.

- Will do.
- Bye, Mama.

Bye.

- Love you.
- I love you, baby.

[chuckles softly]

Oh. Eva.

[chuckles] Eva!

[Vernon and Sharon chuckling]

Now you get on home, Vernon,

before somebody sees us
and gets the wrong idea.

- Especially my wife.
- Mm.

[Vernon and Sharon chuckling]

Well, well, well.

If it isn't Senator Dupree
sneaking around

with the wrong Articulette.

Delicious.
