-You seem so sure.
-Because you're my type.

And what type is that?

We can talk about that
over drinks.

[Aaron] Previously on Sistas.

Who is this?

[Officer Green] It's your
favorite police officer.

-What do you want?
-[Officer Green] You.

Why are you calling me
this late?

I shouldn't have given you
my sperm.

I need you to get rid of
the embryos.

I want to spend the rest of
my life making you happy.

Oh my God.

Karen, will you marry me?

Oh my God.

-We have been through a lot.
-Yeah.

[Aaron] We can make it through
anything.

I want to devote my life
to making you happy.

[whoosh]

-[insects chittering]
-[gentle music]

[knocking on window]

-Leave me alone.
-Please.

-You gonna get cussed out again.
-I just want to apologize.

OK, good. Now -- be gone.

Come on, look.

I'm going through
some things too, alright?

I just found out my wife
is screwing around on me.

I'm mad. I came out here.

I saw you and I ended up

taking it out on you
when it's really all my stuff.

So I apologize.

Was she white?

Umm... I don't know why race
has to really come into it.

And she was white.

Look, I got some ice cream too.

Do you want some company?

I don't know you. [scoffs]

[Aaron] And you cussed me out
like you did.

Can you leave me alone, please?

Alright.

Well, you got the right idea.

So I'll be over
sitting in my truck

going into a sugar coma too.

-Do that.
-[Aaron] Yeah.

Wait, um...

What kind you got?

Vanilla.

Thanks.

Really?

Get in.

-[insects chittering]
-[gentle music]

[Aaron sighs] Can we start over?

I'm Aaron.

Karen.

It's nice to meet you, Karen.

You too.

Are you sure about this?

Karen, I haven't been more sure
about anything else in my life.

So...

So?

Will you marry me?

Yes.

-[Aaron] Yes?
-Yes.

-[Aaron] Yes?
-Yes.

[Aaron] Have me waiting like
that...

[Karen] I'm so sorry!

[Karen] Oh my God.

-Put it on. Put it on.
-[Aaron] Okay, okay, okay...

[bright, warm music]

[Aaron] Look at that.

Look at that.

Okay. Oh my God.

I'm going to make you so happy,
Karen.

As happy as you've made me.

Thank you, baby.

[lips smacking]

-[Karen] Getting married!
-[Aaron laughing]

And moving.

-And moving.
-Oh my God, babe.

Look at Mommy's ring, baby.

Look!

She's asleep. She's asleep.

-She's asleep.
-[Karen] Yeah.

It's alright.

We'll have many
more moments together.

We will.

Who helped you pick out this
ring?

Uh, I picked that ring out on
my own.

Did you?

I mean, I went to go see
your mom to get her blessing.

-Okay.
-And she may have...

-[Karen] Picked the ring out.
-...helped me...

-Oh.
-...pick out the ring.

-Well, you did good.
-Yeah.

-This is beautiful.
-Thank you, baby.

-It's so beautiful.
-You are beautiful.

Almost.
It's almost as beautiful as you.

I did my best.

I cannot believe we're doing
this.

[both laughing]

We're engaged.

[Aaron] I know.

I cannot imagine my life
without you.

Neither can I.

I can't believe we're doing
this.

-We're getting married.
-I know.

-I love you.
-I love you too.

[Aaron] I love you.

[lips smacking]

[both laughing]

Oh my God!

I'm trying to process
what you just asked me.

Yeah. Alright.

I know this isn't the
most ideal,

but I need you to get rid
of those embryos.

Damany, what are you talking
about?

Those are...

We made a deal.
Those are my embryos.

Alright, listen.

My ex and I, we're back together
and we're getting married.

I had to tell
the truth about us.

There is no us.

[Damany] I understand.

I mean, everything that we did
in between.

Everything that we did up
to this point.

Look, I gave you my sperm

Look, I gave you my sperm

to make kids that I can't have
or be a part of.

I mean, not to mention that

my fiancée
is completely against it.

Well, I don't care
if she's against it, okay?

She doesn't have any say in it.

[Damany] I understand,
but I agree with her.

I think it's best that
we completely cut ties.

Damany, did you forget
that you signed an agreement?

Yeah, I know.

Which is why I'm asking you
politely,

please reconsider and get rid of
the embryos.

I mean, I don't feel comfortable
knowing there's a bunch

of random kids out there
that I'll never know or see.

Those are my embryos and
I'm not going to discard them.

[Damany]
Okay, but they're mine...

They're mine too, Sabrina.

Look, and besides,
they're just...

they're specimens, right?

They're just, they're not
even alive.

Look, I don't want to be
that guy.

Some deadbeat.

My fiancée would never marry me.

And I couldn't live with myself.

[Sabrina] Well, I guess
you're going to be single then.

Are you insane?

I don't care what you say.
They do have a life.

[Andi groans]

Yes, please, please. Thank you.

-Thank you, Patricia.
-[Fatima laughs] Hey.

-Good morning.
-Good morning.

How was your night?

If you count the pain in my neck

for sleeping on
my own damn couch,

-a four out of ten.
-Wait, your mom?

You guessed it.

How was your night?

It was interesting.

I saw Gary.

Oh, did he come up here?

Yeah, he came to see Hayden.

-Oh.
-Yeah, he said he wanted

to apologize for everything he
had done, and--

Girl, he put $100,000
in Zac's bank account.

-That's good.
-I guess.

Fatima, I wanted to tell you
that I also spoke with Gary.

-When?
-It doesn't matter.

I have released that man out of
my life.

Trust me. But he did tell me

that he was going to make things
right with everyone, so.

Well, a head's up would
have been nice.

I'm sorry.

We were in
that really weird space.

-Yeah.
-Yeah. I get it.

And did he tell you
that he was going to go far,

-far away?
-Yes.

Ghana. Girl!

I can't believe I'm saying this,

but I think that's going
to be good for him.

Yeah, as much
as I hate Gary's lame ass,

if Africa will help, he need
to be on the first flight out.

-Out of here.
-Out of there, out of there.

[both laughing]

-Oh.
-[Fatima] Oh.

Oh, I meant to tell you. Uh...

Karen, I told Karen to come in,
and I told her to bring

the ladies in from
her women's group

so she can get them
involved in the case.

All right, cool. I love that.

-Yeah, right?
-Yeah.

Yeah, I'm hoping that maybe they
can convince Benson to...

You know, he doesn't take
it seriously.

-Good morning.
-Oh, my God.

To everyone except Ms. Barnes.

My feelings aren't hurt

because I don't get
a good morning from you, Hayden.

And Hayden,
how much cologne did you put on?

Oh, just two sprays.
I need to breathe a little bit.

Okay, it smells like roach
repellent,

-which is actually appropriate.
-[Hayden chuckles]

It's funny you talk about
my scent,

because your mom loved it.

Oh, yeah.
Yeah, I just walked past her.

She said I was cute,
and she said that I had a nice

-cedar vanilla musk.
-Lies.

And, uh, you better watch her,
too.

You know I like
them experienced.

Oh, God, you're so disgusting.

-Is my mother here?
-Oh, she here.

-I guess so.
-[Hayden] She here.

[Fatima] Ugh.

-You stay away from my mother.
-We'll see.

[birds chirping]

-Hello!
-[Sabrina grunts]

Hey.

Girl, what you in here for,
staring like somebody

done -- your daddy?

Mm, yeah.

Sorry, I had a rough night.

Girl, I wasn't going
to say nothing,

but I can tell by
them raccoon eyes.

It's 'cause I barely slept.

What happened?

Where do I even begin?

It's Roc, ain't it?

He done gave you
a yeast infection.

I knew he was dirty when I saw
him.

He look like a bullfrog,
and he smell like one, too.

No.

It has nothing to do with Roc
at all.

Well, then what could
it possibly be?

It's Damany.

He called me last night to tell
me that he's engaged to his ex.

Okay.

And she wants me to get rid of
my embryos.

My four nephews?

Yeah. My babies.

Mmm.

Tell me, who
is this floozy ex-bitch?

I don't know.

It's my first time
even hearing about her.

Mmm.

And how dare her try to change
the past?

You should have told her, bitch,

where was you when he was
-- in a cup for me?

-Exactly.
-[Maurice] Yeah.

You know, Damany and I,
we signed an agreement.

An agreement for what?

For the embryos.

Well, it better not
have been shared custody,

'cause I thought
that was charity sperm.

No, I mean, we both agreed
that they're 100% mine.

Verbally.

Verbally?

Now, bitch, you got
to be smarter than that.

You know you can't do
that kind of stuff by mouth.

I know. I trusted him.

Trusted him?

You've only known him for
two days.

-[Maurice] Girl...
-I know, I know.

I feel so stupid.

You should have gotten Andi
to draw up a contract

or something between the two
of you.

I know.

Girl, I just realized it.

You really screwed.

You can't keep the embryos
without him.

You can't get rid of
them either.

[somber music]

What am I supposed to do?

[Maurice] I don't know.

But I'm pissed, girl.

I mean, I had even came up
with names for them.

They funny
and'll make you laugh.

Mauriq, Mauret, Maral,

and Brandon.

My IVF journey was for nothing.

And you spent $20,000 on it.

I dipped into my savings.

It's going to be okay.

[knocking on door]

Hey, team. Um...

Okay, so I was eavesdropping on

your entire conversation,
um, which I am sorry for.

And, um...

[Maurice] Girl, you act like
there's no work to do.

Well, I hope
that I'm not overstepping,

Sabrina, when I say this,
but, um...

[Maurice] Too late.

Even if you wanted
to get rid of them,

you couldn't.

The law
in Georgia won't let you.

They consider it killing
an infant.

Oh, my God.

Oh, no.

Georgia's pro-life.

I know.

Damn red state.

[upbeat music]

Enjoy Paris.

My man can't take me to Paris.

Oh, wow.

You really can't stay away.

Well, there's a mishap over
in Terminal E,

so I figured I'd stop by.

-What kind of a mishap?
-Oh.

Your company's firing people
left and right.

I know.

Yeah, but they aren't going
quietly, either.

This ain't good. Am I safe?

You need to tell me now.

You know if you're going
bankrupt or anything?

I mean, I don't know, but I just
hope they don't look my way.

Look, I'd hate to be the one
to tell you this, but...

I would keep my options open.

And...

when I say open, I mean in
all aspects of your life.

Wow. Bold.

-Very bold.
-[chuckles] Aw, you love it.

Listen, um...

what happened last night,
it can't happen again.

We didn't do anything.

We texted till, like,
3 in the morning.

We had a lot to discuss.

You know, stupid shit like...

favorite movies and music,

whether or not Tupac
is just chilling in Cuba.

[Officer Green laughs]

Well, I kept your attention,
right?

I mean, we had
an eventful evening.

And I really enjoyed our
conversation.

You're really dope, Danni.

Yeah, tell
me something I don't know.

So...

round two tonight?

You acting like we having sex.

-Well...
-Okay, don't answer that.

Listen, the only reason why
we were able to text so freely

is 'cause I kicked
my man out last night.

Which means I can come
over tonight.

Persistent.

I'll give you that.

Well, I like what I see, so...

Yeah.

Listen, emphasis on my man.

I'm in a relationship, okay?
I don't cheat.

I don't care.

[mouths "Wow..."]

[Karen] Find someone for
the lease takeover.

Okay. Oh.

Email all clients.

Absolutely.

Arrange the movers.

Okay, got that.

And find a sitter in Seattle,
of course.

Let me see. Sitter.

Oh.

Hey, my baby girl.

You gonna be all right.
We're gonna be just fine

'cause we're getting
a new home in Seattle.

I think you and I both deserve
a do-over.

Don't you think? Yeah.

[upbeat music]

-Please, have a seat.
-Thank you.

So...

To what do I owe the pleasure
of you coming to my job?

Again.

I didn't think I needed
a reason.

Well, I'm very busy.
I am at work.

I don't have time to hang out
with my mother.

I made you your favorite!

-Are these...
-Pecan candy.

Yes, it is.

Made them
right before I got here.

-Mommy!
-[Valerie chuckles]

Mmm! Oh, they're so good.

-I know.
-I love you so much.

-Thank you, Mom.
-[Valerie] You're welcome.

Mmm!

-Andi?
-Mm-hmm?

Why are you not married?

You're in your late 30s.

No rings. No kids.

You're giving away your goods
for free.

You don't go to church.

Don't tell me you came

all the way to my job
to judge me again.

No. No.

No judgment.
It's just a simple question.

You know, I would love,
absolutely love to be able

to brag about my daughter

and her wonderful life as a wife
and mother.

Instead, I got to settle for,
"Well, she reduced that bail!"

Yes, Mother.

Because I am a career woman,
as you can see.

A career woman who needs
a good Denzel.

You know what?
I have a lot going on.

Um, I don't want
to discuss this right now.

-Can we talk about it later?
-Fine.

We don't have to.
Are you on birth control?

Mom, I'm not going to answer
that question.

Andi, do you even want kids?

-No. I don't.
-Why?

Mommy, don't do that.

Because I don't like them.
You know that.

You are too much. You know what?

-Just a little bit too much.
-Yeah, so I've been told.

Mom, I really got
to get back to work.

Can we talk later? Please?

Okay. Alright. Yes, we can.

You're going to have to be at
the Bible Study.

Your Aunt Myra's taking me to
one of her ghetto churches.

[Andi] Mm-hmm.

Well, may the Lord be
with you both.

Oh, and thanks for
my "pee-can" candies.

"Peh-cahn".

"Peh-cahn".

[Andi's cell phone ringing]

Oh, God.

Officer Green,
how may I help you?

[Officer Green] I've been
thinking about you.

How's your morning going,
beautiful?

It's off to a
very interesting start.

But back to
my original question.

How can I help you?

[Officer Green] I think you know
why I called.

I want to take you on a date.

Listen, I'm not really
interested in dating.

[Officer Green]
Just think about it.

Next Wednesday,
I'll pick you up.

Fine dining, live music,
flowers, the whole nine.

How about I let you know?

[Officer Green] I'll take that.

Well, I know you probably
have a busy schedule.

You have a wonderful day,
Ms. Barnes.

You too.

[Fatima] Terikka. Hi.

I'm Fatima, the one
that reached out.

-What's up, Fatima?
-Oh, my gosh.

It is so nice to meet you.
I'm a huge fan.

Glad to know you watch women's
basketball.

Since I was a little girl.

And you have had
an incredible year.

Yep. Best one so far.

-And it's only up from here.
-I love to hear that.

And you have my support.

You kind of reached out to me at
the perfect time.

I fired my
two lawyers last week.

Yeah.
Um, I saw that on your story.

And girl, they played you.
But I got you.

See, that's what I want to hear.

I probably should
have been working with

a Black woman from
the beginning.

Well, my partner is
also a person of color.

And he definitely gets the game.

OK.

Speaking of, Hayden, this is--

Point guard for
the Silver Ravens.

-In the flesh.
-I see.

-Who are you?
-I am Hayden Moss.

It is nice to meet you.

Fatima and I are partners.

We still haven't come up with
a name yet.

-But, uh, I'm thinking Hay-Tima.
-You're kind of cute.

-But, uh, I'm thinking Hay-Tima.
-You're kind of cute.

I mean, short, but cute.

Okay. Can we get you anything?

Coffee? Water?

No, I'm good.
I can't be here long.

-I got practice.
-Okay.

Well, uh, why don't we go to

my office and chop it up
a little bit?

-Bet.
-Alright.

-Alright.
-Follow me.

[Fatima] Alright.

He single?

I think he's gay. Yeah, you--

-OK.
-Yeah, no.

Thanks. Thanks, sis.

-Yeah, you know.
-[Terikka] Okay.

[R&B music playing]

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

-Mr. Keyes!
-[both laughing]

-[Zac] Mr. Keyes.
-[Keyes] Hey, hey.

-How you doing, son?
-[Zac] Doing good.

Good morning, man. Good morning.

[Zac] Hey, I ordered you coffee.

I just don't know how you take
it.

Perfect.
Hey, black as hell, like me.

[Zac laughs]

So you're a true coffee drinker.

That's me, that's me.
Yeah, thank you.

No, thank you for meeting me
so early.

Oh, no.

Look, I'm up at
5 AM every morning.

It's like lunch for me.
Oh, yeah.

That's dope.

Man, you...

You sure remind me of Gold, man.

I mean, we called him Gold
'cause, man,

your dad used to wear
all this gold jewelry.

Just... Fool looked like Mr. T.

Yeah.

So if he had gold,
that mean he had money.

Mm-mm.

Man, your father used to steal
all that jewelry.

I mean, he liked going
and taking all the jewelry

from the rich folks
'cause they'd never miss it.

Miss it? Yeah.

Look, Gold ain't never got
caught either.

Yeah, Gold.

I ain't seen that clown
since I was like five, I guess.

Really? Yeah, well...

Aside from the stealing,
man, you guys are similar.

How?

Well, as far as I can remember,
man, your father was determined.

You know, he was a go-getter,
a hustler.

A deadbeat.

Yeah.

He was complicated, you know.

But he made
some foolish decisions, man.

Well, then that leads me
to asking you here.

Where is my father?

[upbeat music]

Hey, did Terikka leave?

Yeah, I just walked her big
and tall ass out.

Hayden, don't do that.

That girl's one of the coldest
in the games right now,

-and she chose us to rep her.
-Yeah, I know.

You look over her contract yet?

Yeah, I'm pretty much done
with all the red lines.

I'm going to email it to her.
I'll make sure I CC you on it.

I told her we could start with
the weekly retainer.

OK, that's perfect.

Look at us.

We getting along.
We working together.

It's a beautiful thing.

Yeah, it makes me want to vomit.

Yeah, but we getting that money,
girl.

You know what I'm saying?

Go ahead, keep
your stank attitude, then.

Hayden, anything else?

'Cause I really need to finish
my work.

Anyway, what's going on
with Hayley Waters?

Oh, we have a meeting with her
next week,

but you are going
to have to take it.

But you're the one with all
the personality and shit.

Yeah, I am. Um, but...

Can you close the door?

Are we sharing secrets now?

-[Fatima] Just close the door.
-OK, twin.

I love this for us.

Let me hear.

What's the tea?

Stop. Yeah.

Okay, you're going
to have to run point on

all the client meetings
from here on out.

Again? Why?

Well, I have work to do,
and I got to focus

on everything
that Andi's giving me and this.

So because Andi's jealous
of you?

I've been telling you that.

She's not jealous of me, okay?

I have work to do.

Me and you make way
more money doing what we doing.

--- Andi.
-Yo, jeez.

What's with all
the "-- Andis" in this office?

Listen, Hayden.

I work in this office
because I work for Andi, OK?

Not because of
the athletes we work with.

I ain't about
to let Andi -- up my money,

alright?

So if you want me
to talk to her,

-I'll go talk to her right now.
-No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Don't. Listen, me and Andi,
we're in a good place,

and I want to keep it that way.

Look, I'm telling you,
that woman salivates

at the mouth when she see me.
For real.

If you want me to talk to her,
I can take care of it.

-It's not a problem.
-Hayden, as much as

your fourth grade imagination
amuses me, I'll handle it, OK?

I'll figure out a way
to balance it all.

Fine.

Your dad left Atlanta
about 10 years ago.

Wow.

Yeah, he remarried
and moved to Canada

with some South African woman.

Yeah, deadbeat didn't even think
to reach out.

Well, that's one of the reasons
that, you know,

your dad just ain't talking
no more.

You know, your...
Man, your dad was...

Was what?

Other than the sperm donor?

Yeah.

That's one of the reasons that,

you know, I don't see him
no more.

I yelled at him to reach out
to you.

It got personal.

Words were exchanged,

and that's why we just don't
talk no more, man.

Well, I appreciate you trying,
but, um,

I'm more interested in the why.

What do you mean?

Like, why he ain't ever try
to reach out.

Man, who knows, man?

It could be fear.
It could be shame.

Or simply, maybe he just didn't
want to have a relationship.

Look...

Now that I found you, man,
I just hope we could be friends.

Yeah, I ain't...

I ain't never need him.

Don't need him now.

My advice, just let him sulk
in his own guilt,

you know, regret, and move on
with your life.

And from what I see, man,

you look like you got
a wonderful life ahead of you.

[Zac] Yeah.

-- him.

Don't need him. Never have.

Well, look, now that I found
you, I hope we could be friends.

-Of course.
-Yeah.

[knocking on glass]

-Hey, Karen.
-Hey.

Come on in.

Oh, thank you.
Sorry to interrupt.

No, you're not interrupting
anything.

Andi'll be in,
so just have a seat.

-Okay.
-Yeah.

So, how are you doing?

I'm great. Yeah.

I'm great. Yeah.

-Really great, actually.
-Good.

I don't know. It's...

There's something different
about you.

-It's like you got this glow.
-What?

-Yeah.
-[Karen] No.

Maybe it's just 'cause,
you know,

last night Aaron proposed,
and I said yes.

[Karen laughs]

Oh, my. Congratulations.

-Oh, my God.
-[Karen] Thank you.

-He did good, right?
-He did really good.

Karen, I'm so happy for you
guys, and you deserve this.

-Wow!
-Well,

-that's not all.
-Okay, do tell.

So, you remember when I was
talking to you about wanting

to start a new chapter
and whatnot?

Yes, and I told you to go
for it.

Yes, you did. Thank you.

-Yeah.
-Well,

Aaron and I are moving
to Seattle.

-What?
-Yeah.

-When?
-Well, in a few days.

I know. I know. I know.

Well, first, congratulations
on making that decision.

-Thank you.
-But why so soon?

Well, Aaron got a job offer
last night,

and, well, they want him
to start training next week,

so let's go ahead out
and get settled.

So, how do you feel about that?

Honestly, I'm excited
to start a new chapter.

I really love this for you.

-Thank you.
-Yeah.

Look at us.

Who would have thunk?

Just out here supporting each
other.

-Ooh.
-Yes, look at us.

-I'm glad we got here, though.
-Same.

Thank you for
meeting me last minute.

No problem.

You're lucky
my midday appointment canceled.

-Yeah.
-How are you?

Oh, we'll get to that.
How much time do we have?

Um, about 30 minutes at
the most.

That's all the time I have, too.

They've cut my lunch hour, so...

Okay, then. Yeah, let's dive in.

-Brace yourself.
-Got it.

Alright.
I'm about to lose my job.

And my raggedy-ass unemployed
boyfriend

has moved into my apartment
and completely taken over,

dirtied the place up,
stole money from me, okay?

And then I met this other guy
who was fine as hell,

and he makes me...
you know, whatever.

And then my annoying-ass
so-called friend Andi,

instead
of taking accountability,

bitch thinks I'm jealous of her.

And what am I missing?

Oh, my hair's thinning.

Yeah.

-[Cretia] Wow.
-Yeah.

Yeah, there's a lot
to unpack here.

That was pregame.

-Oh, my gosh.
-I know.

-I didn't even expect it.
-What is all the commotion?

I can hear y'all from down
the hallway.

[Fatima] Sorry.

Well, you know, Andi, we were
waiting for you to arrive.

-Karen Nicole Mott!
-Not my whole name!

What is on
your left ring finger?

-Aaron proposed last night.
-[Andi] What?!

[Fatima] Isn't it beautiful?

[Andi] Oh, my gosh,
it's so beautiful!

-It's huge!
-It is.

-Wait, do the girls know?
-Not yet.

Just you and Fatima.

Listen, I'm gonna let you guys
catch up.

-If you need anything...
-Okay.

-Thanks, Fatima.
-Congratulations again.

-Thank you.
-You're welcome.

Girl, you have to tell me
everything!

-Okay, be careful.
-What are the details?

-When is the wedding?
-What?

Yes.

Okay, look,
we just got engaged yesterday.

I don't know.

We're trying to get settled
into Seattle,

you know, stay focused on that.

But if there's a wedding,
I'm sure you'll be there.

No, no, no. There is no if.

Karen, you must have a wedding.
I will be a bridesmaid.

-Are you kidding me?
-Listen, if it's cheaper for us

to just go down to
the courthouse,

get married like that,

and then spend
the money on our forever home...

-Whatever.
-[Karen] Mm-hmm.

If that's what you want,
I get it.

I always knew it would be you
or Sabrina.

I always knew it.

Technically, it was you.

Okay, that wasn't even a...

Anyway, I motion to change
the subject.

Oh, you want to change
the subject?

Yes.

You don't want to talk about it
no more?

-It wasn't a real wedding.
-I was there.

Andi, is this a meeting or
a sista soulja catch-up?

I need the conference room.

Is this the small -- energy
lawyer from before?

Yes, that's exactly who it is.

Hey, ain't nothing small about
it, alright?

Hayden, I have booked
the conference room

for the remainder of the day,
so you can scram.

Mm-hmm.

Hmm.

-Pathetic.
-Very.

So, anyway.
I need you to do me a favor

and call the women from
your women's group.

I need you to get
them here in the office.

-When?
-Today.

-Today?
-Yes.

Andi, I don't know if that's
going to work.

It's a bit short notice.

Karen, if Benson heard these
women's stories,

he would have a change
of heart about Dr. Cruise.

It's nothing like hearing from
the source.

And once Benson is on my side,

I will be free to pursue
a class action lawsuit.

That's huge.

-Come on.
-No.

-Please?
-Okay, yeah, no.

I'll just...

Let me text Brenda and see if
she can wrangle everybody.

-No promises.
-No promises.

Okay.

Do you have moments where you
struggle between emotions?

Like, one minute you're up,
the next you're down.

Cretia, I am a walking
emotional rollercoaster.

That is why I'm here.
You know that.

You're supposed
to be helping me.

Danni, I think you might be

experiencing
a cortisol imbalance.

-A what?
-A cortisol imbalance.

It's when the stress hormone
is either too low or too high.

Okay, well, I've never heard
of this.

It's actually a lot more common
than you probably realize.

Well, I am too fly, too vibrant,

and too me to be going through

whatever it
is you're talking about.

So I rebuke it
in the name of Jesus.

Danni.

Danni, you are having
hot flashes,

mood swings, vaginal dryness.

So he says.

Okay, but didn't you say that
your hair is thinning?

Shit.

I promise you, it's a lot
more common than you realize.

A lot of women deal with this,
especially Black women.

Okay, can you run this back?

What are you saying
my body's going through?

So cortisol, the stress hormone,
it's a foundational hormone,

and it affects your metabolism
and your immune system.

So when it's too low, or I think
in your case, too high,

it can cause a lot of physical
and emotional symptoms.

Listen, I think you should make
an appointment

with your primary care physician

so that you can
have an official diagnosis.

But I will say, you're checking
off all the boxes.

Can you check your thermostat?

It's 68.

Okay, Brenda says they can make
it.

-Yes!
-They'll be here at 6.

-Amazing.
-Yeah.

Thanks for setting that up.

Of course, no worries. Um...

Change of subject again.

While I'm here, what is going on
with you and Danni?

Oh, girl.

Do not get me started on Danni,
please.

-I have work to do.
-What is happening?

Last time I checked,
y'all were cool.

Recently, you've been acting
like you ain't even day ones,

fighting and all that.

fighting and all that.

It all started from
a teeny tiny white lie I told

about dating your doctor.

Dr. Vaughn?

Yeah, I know it's weird.
I'm dating him.

-I was just...
-No.

I don't care
that you're dating him.

I'm just glad you're not dating
that freak Gary.

See? You don't care who I date.

But Danni brings up who I date
all the time.

I don't know what her issue is.

I feel like she's jealous
that I can date.

I can date whoever I want.

She's stuck at home with Tony in
a relationship.

There's nothing wrong with being
in a relationship, Andi.

Oh, Karen. It is not the same.

You don't count.
You're happy and engaged

in your relationship.

Danni is not happy in hers,
and I think that's very clear.

Andi, I think the only thing

that's clear is
that we don't know.

This is why we need a good
old-fashioned girls night out.

You know? It's been a while.

Right?

-It has been a while.
-[Karen] Exactly.

So we'll get everybody together,

and then Maurice, Pam,
Fatima, tonight.

-Okay, that sounds like fun.
-[Karen] Okay.

Exactly.

Consider it
my going away celebration.

So go ahead, get in your closet,
take out the freakum dress,

not that you're not already
in it...

-[Andi laughs]
-...and let's go out.

Mm, I may have one or two
dresses that I can put on.

Mm... Mm... Yes?

-All right, count me in.
-Perfect.

I'm going to miss you, girl.
No, the ring finger.

-Ah!
-I'm going to miss you, girl.

-You serious?
-[Andi chuckles]

I'm so serious. It's gorgeous.

Thank you.
I'm going to miss you, too.

I'm always a phone call away.

Promise?

No, don't call me
with this bullshit.

Ladies, welcome.
I am Andrea Barnes.

Nice to meet you, Andi.

Karen told us all about you.

Well, I told them you were
a partner,

and you have a lot of influence.

So you really feel we can take
down this racist killer?

Yeah, I've always wanted
to do something,

but I couldn't
afford a fancy lawyer.

Speaking of, this is all free,
right?

Yes.

I'm doing this for
my good friend, Karen.

I also want to support
all the women

who have suffered at
the hands of Dr. Cruise.

I can already tell you are not
the one to play with.

[Brenda] Mm-hmm.

I'm so glad Karen reached out.

Same.

Let's take this meeting
into the conference room.

Can I get you ladies anything?
Tea?

Come on. Water?

-No, I'm good.
-Are you sure?

-Are you sure?
-Thank you. No.

[Andi] Are you sure?

-It's him.
-[Karen] Who?

Hello.
I'm here to see Hayden Moss.

[Karen] Andi...

[suspenseful music]

[Sabrina] Thank you, Ms. Jones.

We'll be with you
in about 15 minutes.

-Okay.
-You can sit right there.

Sabrina.

Damany, what
the hell are you doing here?

You know coming here is not
going to make me change my mind.

I understand, and I'm sorry,

but I really need you
to reconsider the embryos.

Maybe you can try
with somebody else.

Even if I wanted to, Damany,
I can't because of the law.

What do you mean?

What do I mean?

Well, here in Georgia, embryos
are considered a life, but,

you know, that probably means
nothing to you.

I'm confused.

I thought it was just like
an abortion.

No, it would be like murdering
my children!

-Keep your voice down, Sabrina!
-What?

Are you embarrassed?

You don't want people to hear
that you're a baby killer?!!!

Sabrina, stop.

You know that's not true.

And besides, look,
the embryos are like a specimen.

A specimen.

I am not doing this with you.

You don't think they'll wonder?
Ask about me?

I don't want to be that guy.

So what I think is best,
Sabrina,

is maybe we ship them to

a more liberal state,
like California,

and we get it done over there.

Damany, read my lips.

The answer is no.

So this is her?

Babe, I told you
to wait in the car.

I know, baby, but you've
been taking a little long,

so I had to see what she had
to say.

I haven't changed my mind.

Sweetie, you need to.

It's the right thing to do.

No, it's not.

And I don't know what this is
with you two ganging up on me,

but you're not going to tell
me what to do with my embryos.

Look, Damany is not going
to be in their lives.

You're just going to have
four fatherless

young Black boys?

Is that what you want?
To live a stereotypical life?

-She's serious?
-By choice, yes.

I am very serious.

What I do with me and mine is
my business.

I'm not getting rid of them.

Then I guess we'll see you
in court.

Andi...
You didn't mean to do this.

[Sabrina] Next on Sistas.

Bitch, don't play with me.
I am not the one.

I am not playing with you.

[indistinct]

I've been waiting for your ass
to do something stupid.

He doesn't have a backbone.

And it's this Nia chick that's
doing all the pushing?

Mm-hmm.

So I suggest we do
a little pushing of our own.

Honestly, you have a point.

If my life is going to be
a disaster,

I might as well have some say
in it.

That's right.
