All language subtitles for Braxton Family Values - S05E17 - You Run Your Mouth, Ill Run My Business (1080p YTTV WEB-DL AAC2.0 H.264)-FFG_track3_[eng]

Tamar publicly humiliated me
on social media.

- We had a talk with Traci.
- About what?

We were talking about her song

- and-- no, no...
- Oh, the one
y'all didn't invite me to.

...don't say y'all.

We came here to express
how hurt Traci was

but hearing Tamar
was hurt too,

seems like
they definitely need
to sit down

and talk about this.

We want our sister
to go amend it.

The biggest issue
that we're gonna have
in this divorce,

Andre wants
primary custody
of the children.

I'm just walking around
with no soul.

We've been friends
for a long time.

For, like, 14, 15 years.

And, we've recently been
going out on dates.

Sometimes with friendship,
things can develop.

♪ We are the Braxtons
and you'll see ♪

♪ That we are not like
an ordinary family ♪

♪ Toni, Traci, Towanda,
Trina, Tamar, and Miss E ♪

♪ Will teach you
a thing or two ♪

♪ On
"Braxton Family Values." ♪

I'm meeting
with Tamar today,

and I'm not sure
if this has anything

to do with
the social media thing.

I hope it does not,
because you never know

how the conversation
is going to go.

It can really go left.

It's just not
whoever got an issue,

to say what their issue is
and keep it popping.

You know what I'm saying?

I am under construction,
I am not perfect.

Although the skin is,
I am not perfect.
You know?

Just because
I don't have an issue

at somebody else
who does not mean

I don't, you know,
owe them the right--

one time, though--
to sit and talk about

what their issue is,
and if I hurt your feelings,

I don't have a problem saying
I'm sorry for whatever.

I listen to you on the radio
every single Tuesday.

You have, like,
a natural, like, radio gift.

- Really?
- Yeah.

For some reason,
we leave the back door open

- on Tuesdays.
- Yes.

- And in walks
our beloved Traci Braxton.
-

Who,
in another episode of...

-"The Traci Takeover."
- Yeah, dog!

-Of course.
- You know, just trying put in
hard, hard, hard work.

And it's really hard,

but I won't be
at the radio anymore.

- You're not there anymore?
- No.

They moved it to New York.

So, why didn't
they move you?

- Did they ask you?
- Not yet. I guess.

Maybe they will ask you
because you were really good,

and it was really funny,

and I laughed my ass off
for, like, two hours.

- It's hilarious.
- Tamar, what about
your music?

I know you're excited.

Traci, I cannot lie,

this album for me
is, like, my favorite one.

I'm in a better place.

I feel like I'm Tamar,
but I'm, like,

Tamar better than ever.

Because I'm, like,
Tamar grown up.

I just started working
on my third album,

and I know I've grown,

because I can say
it's a blessing

to have
so many painful experiences

of loss
and last year to pull from,

and make it a positive thing
in my music.

It's, like, things
that used to bother me

or people or whatever...

daggers that used
to stick to me before, don't.

Everything just, like,
roll off my back.

Sometimes you have
to separate yourself
to reattach yourself.

You know what I mean?

Why can't we just have fun
and laugh at each other

like we did
back in the day?

It's like everybody
take things to heart now.

Like, I feel like
back in the day,

how we used
to jone on each other--

we used to call it
jone on each other--

and nobody
ended up fighting.

Everybody is cool.
Nobody took it to heart.

Why does everybody take it
what everybody say to heart?

That's the dumbest thing
on the planet.

I mean, my family's
with Tamar.

But I wanna be mature,

and I wanna be
very responsible

of the things
I say to my sister.

Holding my tongue
is kind of hard.

It's 'cause everybody know
I can be real petty.

P-E to the T-T-Y, honey.

I think people forget the fact
that we not homegirls,
we sisters.

- Yeah.
- And we're sisters.

You fall in
and you fall out.

- Right.
- And that's what happened

since we was two,
seven, eight,
12, and 13.

And you know what,
it's not just about

you, Towanda, Trina, Toni
doing a record together...

and me being off of it--

But you weren't there.
You had something to do.

I didn't know about it,
but I'm not holding you
accountable for that

because guess what,
we just haven't collaborated

on your record as
a whole sisterhood together,

and guess what, Traci?

I'm okay with that.

I'm not holding that
to your heart,

I'm not holding that
to your record,

I'm not holding that
to the girls.

It was just something
I just wasn't a part of.

Okay, fine,
whatever, whatever.

You know?

Everybody's not
gonna invite you
to their party.

If they don't invite you
to their party, guess what?

Go somewhere else.

That's not my issue.

That's yours!

I think now
is not the appropriate time

to bring up
the social media issue.

I don't wanna say things
because I'm hurt,

and I think
I need a little bit more time

before I need
to address my sister.

So, for right now,
I'm just gonna put on
a big ol' smile

and act like
nothing ever happened.

I want my sisters--
all of them--

to win at whatever
that-- you know,
they're doing

and, you know,
that's including you.

And whatever
I can do to help--

you know what I'm saying?

I have a studio
at my house, you know?

This is not a ploy
to get you to my house.

Yes, it is.
Yes, it is.

All it's gonna cost you
is a plane ticket,

and you got so many miles,
it's free for you.

Oh, yeah, I do store them.

- Like I'm a gerbil.
- You store them.

- What's a gerbil?
- You know, gerbils store in--

squirrels store things
in their cheeks.

A gerbil, too?
Like a squirrel?

- Yes!
- True story.

Well, let me be
a gerbil's wife

and store something
that's in my mouth.

I'm gonna go home
and practice.

I love you.

You ever had somebody
who talk about you

behind your back,
but when you get

in front of their face,
they don't have
nothing to say?

Do they call it
a misunderstanding

because
you don't understand,

and you missed it?

I'm just-- I don't.

I don't-- I missed it.

I'll see you later.

Welcome home
from L.A., Mommy!

Thanks for coming
to the park.

You know what?
You're welcome.

- You know, this divorce thing
is driving me crazy.
- Oh, God.

- I know it is.
- Ooh, Lord.

It has always been
hard for me

to open up
about my stuff.

Especially the things
that I'm really going through,

which is why
I haven't been sharing much

with my sisters
about my divorce,

but if Andre
was granted full custody
of my kids...

I wouldn't be able
to live.

This is a time when I need
my mother the most.

You know, Mom, my thing is

I don't want it
to be a situation

where it's tough
for the kids.

'Cause I know how we felt

when you and Daddy
was going through all that,

and that was a lot!

Yeah, but, you know,
it was a little different.

There's no-- or not
another woman involved.

The only way
the children will know

that this divorce
is testy like that,

is that you and he argue
like fools.

- Oh, no, I don't do that.
- Carry on.

- Mm-mm, I don't do that.
- Okay, being disrespectful
to each other.

That's the only way
that will affect them.

But Mommy, even y'all--

you and Daddy
didn't do that either.

Y'all didn't talk bad

about each other
in front of us.

We still--
we felt the tension, though.

Mommy and Daddy never argued
in front of us.

Like, ever.

However,
we could always tell

when they were having
a disagreement,

because you could
actually feel the tension

or there will be, like,
this dead silence,

this
uncomfortable silence.

I don't want that
for my children.

I don't ever want them
to ever feel

that they're the middle
of a tug-of-war, ever.

Well, when your dad and I
had conversations,

we would go in the room
and close the door.

That's what I'm saying,
so y'all didn't
do that either.

...one another,
calling each other

this and that and--

he just started
acting a fool

after he got with that,
you know, whatever.

I'm just saying.
I don't recognize that now.

He say all kind
of old nasty stuff now.

My divorce
was not civil at all.

My divorce
was harsh and mean.

It was terrible.

I don't want anybody
to go through that.

That's great y'all friends.

Y'all can sit
and talk about it.

I didn't say
we were friends.

Well, I didn't say buddies.

You don't become friends
until it's over.

We're cord--
we're very cordial, though.

- Right.
- We have a mutual respect.

And thank God
that we ain't at each other,

it's just he's trying
to fight for full custody.

He wants to be
the primary person with--

No, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no.

No, he cannot.

Uh-uh, uh-uh.

Coming up on...

Oh, my God,
I had major ear problems.

-
- Hey, Toni.

What's going on?
What's going on?

Think about what you said.

I know exactly
what I'm saying.
It's wrong!

Remember that you asked me
to come over here
for a taste test?

Like, I'm not trying
to be shady.

You back me into a corner,
I'll come scratching like--

Put that (bleep)
in your corn cob pipe

and smoke that,
mother(bleep).

'Cause ain't nobody
got time for this.

Andre wants full custody
of the kids.

- "Full custody."
- Yeah.

Mm-mm, baby, I'm sorry,
I didn't understand

the whole gist of it.

- Mm-hmm.
- I just thought, you know,
y'all was still talking.

You're friends,
you're very civil
with each other.

It is,
that's what I'm saying.

- That's just, you know--
- Towanda, that's not civil.

- Oh.
- I hate to be the one
to tell you.

You know, divorce does--

it brings out the worst
in people.

But I am shocked

that he would ask
for full custody
of the children.

They're not just
gonna wanna stay
with one parent.

- Mm-mm.
- They love their dad,
and they love you.

And he wants the property
in Maryland,

and he wants the condo
in L.A.

- He want all
the property, too?
- All of it.

I don't care.
That's just stuff.

I told him
he could have it.

No.

Split it half.

One shouldn't get
any more than the other.
I'm just keeping it real.

- You worked like a dog to get
where you are today.
- Yeah, I did.

And he can have it?

Uh-uh. He can't have
your children...

Oh, no,
he can't have them.

...and he can't
have everything

you worked hard for.

Anytime somebody greedy

and want it all,
no way in the world
that's civil.

- Let me tell you
about a divorce.
- Mm-hmm.

A divorce is war,
and you better fight.

You better go
for his jugular,

'cause he's gonna go
for yours.

Can't you tell?

I'm trying to go into this
with my gloves on,

but if he wants me
to take them off,

I will take them off,
and fight dirty if he wants to.

I'm just trying
not to go that route.

You gotta do
what you gotta do.

I wasn't gonna let
that woman have my house.

Absolutely not.

I understand where
Mommy's coming from, you know?

But the last thing
that I want

is a ugly,
drawn-out divorce

like her and Daddy's,
you know?

I think I wanna try to go
to therapy.

Your dad and I,
we tried that.

We couldn't do that,
'cause, you know.

She didn't allow it.

- She was insecure.
- She was very insecure,
and she still is.

Mommy and Daddy's divorce
is totally different
from mine.

If I go to counseling,

I might be able to figure out
how to strike a balance

between being more aggressive
for my property

and still protect
my children.

But I have to hope
that Andre and I

will be able
to work together,

and do
what's best for them.

- It'll be all right.
- I got the best mom
in the world.

Yes, you do.

It looks great, right?

-Mm-hmm.
- But it's
grossly uncomfortable.

The tour has been great,

and I'm finally back home
in Los Angeles.

Today,
I'm performing at this huge,
important benefit

for Children's Hospital
in Los Angeles.

It's just wonderful
and an honor

that they asked me
to be included.

- I think it's beautiful.
-It is beautiful,

but I'm uncomfortable
to sing.

We picked out
a perfect dress,

but I'm really not sure
that this is going to work.

- It's on the Adam's apple.
- Yeah, I was wondering.

I know girls
don't have them, but it's,
like, that's where I sing.

- Yeah.
-You're okay?

I was wondering
about that.

It's barely there.

It's having to wear a dress
without underwear

- is already a challenge.
- Yeah.

Good thing that my basement
is unfurnished.

I love those flowers.

Who sent them to you?

B sent me those,
but he sent me

the big ones at home.

It's just-- I told him
I couldn't lift them
in the car.

I couldn't lift them
in the car,

so he sent these
just to make me smile, and...

the big arrangement's
at the house.

B and I have decided
to take

the little shot
at the romance,

and we're dating, lightly,

but I haven't--
we haven't been on a date
since I've been on tour.

He's been busy,
my schedule's been busy.

Luckily for me,
he likes to do things

to let me know
that he cares about me.

Like sending me flowers.
I'm a flowers girl.

What can I say?

He's an undercover gentleman,
and he makes me feel adored.

You think
you can live in Miami?

I don't know, Craig.
Interesting question.

I don't know.
No, the boys are out here
with school.

He's buying another place
in Miami.

Have you seen it?

Just pictures.
Video, I should say.

- It's really nice.
- So, why is he moving
from the castle?

He says
he wants to downsize.

How do you feel
about that?

- His house
is 23,000 square feet.
- I know, but?

- The penthouse
is 11,000 square feet.
-

What if we cut this?

-Cut what?
You need to come over here.
- Skin it.

But in your robe.
The tie to your robe.

What if we cut
a piece of this,

and put it between your neck
and the beads?

Okay, let's try.

I swear.

Y'all put splits
on the top of this?

I might have scissors
right here.

How does everybody got
good splits in the top
of this?

- That might work.
- Little splits,
can we try that?

Where all the beading
did fall off?

Let's just-- careful!

Just little teeny tears.

Little darts,
just little teeny--
that's good.

And the beads all around it.

They'll never see it.

-That's it.
- That should help, right?

You tell me.

Yes!

Be consistent.
Make it look like the dress
is supposed to be like that.

Okay, okay.

I can't believe I did that.
Oh, my God.

Oh, God,
how much is this dress?

Did I borrow this dress?
Dang!

Should I just buy
this dress?

Should I just buy
this $20,000 dress?

I hope not.

I think I did.

Towanda is coming into
Bar Chix before it opens,

and I have a few ideas
about my business

that I want
to bounce off of her.

I think I need to open up
a second location.

I'm always
really apprehensive

to ask my sisters for advice
on business ideas,

but I trust that Towanda
would be respectful.

-Hey, Latrin.
- Hey, Wan.

Your legs look nice.

- Don't they look nice?
- They look good.

I have lotion on.
Did you put lotion
on you today?

I didn't
put lotion on today.

How are the kids?

- They're good.
- How are things at home?

Are things good?

Well, I don't want
to talk about that today.

Let's talk about your bar.

I'm thinking about
another location.

A little bitty piece of me

is like,
"Trina, slow down.

The bar hasn't even been
around for a year yet, okay?

Just wait,
just a little while.
Just a little while."

Where?

If I do things
demographically,

I would definitely put it...
in Suwanee.

Why Suwanee?

Suwanee has been nominated

one of the 10 best places
to live in America.

Sh-- I want to see that.

Suwanee is perfect
because everybody is in it--

that's what I'm saying--
when it comes-- it's--

- Everybody ain't in Suwanee.
- Towanda, guess what?

There are a lot of people
coming to visit Suwanee,
Towanda.

A lot of people don't even
know the word Suwanee.

- Well--
- I'm just saying.

I love Suwanee, Georgia.

I lived in Suwanee
for 14 years of my life,

and they have people
with disposable income.

So, it's, like,
a really great place for me.

The only con
about putting another location

in Suwanee would be
that it's still really far
from Atlanta.

You know,
Suwanee's a nice area, okay?

It's a nice area,
it's just the area

where Trina got her DUI!

Okay, I said it, okay?

That's where
Trina got her DUI,

so I'm not too certain
about her having
a place there.

- Who's that?
- It's Daddy.

- Hey, Dad.
- Hey, Daddy.

Hey, girls, how y'all doing?

- Great. How are you?
- Good. How are you doing?

Hey, listen,
your mother was
in a car accident.

A what?

- See, that's how
rumors get started.
- I--

It was not a car accident.

Logan ran over Mommy
with a golf cart.

It's not funny.

-Did-- wait, what?
Is she okay?
- Is--

- Yes.
-Yes, sir.

She's okay, Dad.

Oh, God.
Thank God.

- Oh, God.
- You was worried, huh,
about your ex-wife.

...over now--
oh, my goodness.

Was he dressed up
as a pimp,

and he was riding around
in the golf cart,

and said,
"Evelyn, where's my money?

Woman,
better have my money."

And your mother
didn't have his money.

You know what, Daddy?
You know what?

Uh-uh, that's blasphemy
right there,

and I am not gonna be
a part of that.

- Mm-mm.
- I love you,
but I can't-- uh-uh.

You know
I always get in trouble.

Hello. All right,
thank you for joining us

for an unforgettable evening, unforgettable.

Today, I have an opportunity
to perform

for the Children's Hospital
Los Angeles.

So, I'm excited.

Stanby.

Yeah. Put your ears in,
if you would.

Please, whatever you do,

put it on social media.

Tell everybody
what a great time
you had here tonight,

what great work
Children Hospital does.

What did--
y'all hear that?

- Did y'all hear that?
- I heard something.

- A beep?
- I heard something.

Did y'all hear a beep?

-
- Hey, Toni.

I'm-- what's going on?

What's going on?
What's going on?

(bleep).

(bleep).

Standby.

She is, by far,

one of my favorites
of all time.

Whoa.

Coming up on...

For your pop-up shop...

No, you cannot.

Trina's the most
stubborn person I've ever met

in my entire existence
of life.

Wait a minute,
hold on, hold on.

What does that mean?

Tamar.

Did y'all hear a beep?

-
- Hey, Toni.

What's going on?
What's going on?
What's going on?

(bleep).

(bleep).

Standby. Hold on, hold on,

- her ear's--
- We can't do this.

It scared the hell
out of me.

Whoa.

You good?

- Whoa.
-Unfortunately,
I had major ear problems.

My nerves are shot.

You are going to have
an unbelievable time
right now.

Please welcome
the one and only,
the incomparable,

she is something special,

Ms. Toni Braxton.

Oh, my God.

Whoa.

In your ear?

I'm supposed to start,
but I don't know if I can
get through this.

With over
67 million albums sold,

she's a seven-time
Grammy award winning icon.

- Please welcome...
- It's vibrating.

...singer, songwriter,

actress,
television personality,

and philanthropist...

...the voice
of a generation,

- Toni Braxton.
-

Good evening,
ladies and gentlemen.

I'm Toni Braxton.

Whoo! So, y'all ready
to have a good time?

Darkchild.

You should see the years

Whoo!

Good night,
ladies and gentlemen!

We got through it
and it was a lot of fun.

It brought awareness
to Children's Hospital
Los Angeles,

and I did a lot
of audience participation,

which is perfect for me.

That's right up
my alley.

Thank you guys so much!

I love you!
Good night!

-Caleb! Hey, Kay-Kay!
-Hey, Auntie.

You at the door!
That's an upgrade.

- Uh, uh!
- Is that necessary?

Yes, it's very necessary.

You at the door.
That's an upgrade.

There's a lot
of sinful things
going on around here.

- Hey, girl!
- Hey, baby!

- Hi!
- Hey, Trina-bean.

- Hey.
-Trina asked
Traci and I

to stop by
the bar tonight.

And I love Bar Chix,
so I'm here for it,

and I'm just super here
for Traci and I hanging out

because we done talked
the other day

and now we can just
hang out with each other

and have fun,
not thinking about
nothing else.

Let's come have
a seat over here.

Do you guys want something
to drink or anything?

I want some french fries.
You got fries?

I don't have
french fries, Tamar.

Come sit right here.
Y'all want a cocktail?

I want some fries
and chicken.

- Well, we have chicken.
- You ain't got chicken
and french fries.

People like to dip
they french fries
in the chicken sauce.

- That is true.
- I'm sorry, I'm not
doing that.

I would eat it
all day.

You get some fries on this menu,
I bet you you're business
start booming.

Well, but that--
but that's why I even
got you guys over here.

I talked with
my financial planner,

and he said that
I should wait another
two or three years

to open up another location,
which I'm not gonna do.

I was thinking about
opening up another location.

To start another endeavor
at this point

would be
a very bad idea.

- Tell me why.
- There are costs
that we cannot anticipate.

- Right.
- You need to have
a contingency.

Mm-hmm.

What, I'm sorry,
say that again.

My financial advisor.

- The one that looks
over your books?
- Yes.

- But don't you think
you should listen to him?
- I do listen to him.

However, semicolon,

three years?

You don't wait three years
while the momentum is hot.

So, I've already
told Towanda this,

but I'm opening up
a pop-up location.

Since my financial
advisor said

it would be too risky
to open up a second Bar Chix
location right now,

I've decided
to do a pop-up,

and it will be
a special one-night event

to research options
for a future second
Bar Chix location.

It's
the perfect compromise.

Well, have one in DC.

Not doing DC yet.

- Like, what city here?
- Baltimore?

Either Suwanee
or Atlanta.

Girl.

Suwanee is very diverse.

Trina,
Suwanee is "Yawnee."

- No, it is not.
- Yes, it is.

- I'm asleep.
- No, that is not true.

Suwanee stays packed.

Man, nobody coming
all the way down to Suwanee.

I ain't coming to Suwanee.
I'm tired.

I will not be making it.

I can't make--
I missed my flight.

I can't do it.
My Uber don't go that far.

- Like, that
would be that for me.
- Uber goes everywhere.

I'm just being honest.
Lyft left.

Trina's
the most stubborn person
I've ever met

in my entire
existence of life.

Like, she doesn't
listen to nobody.

Like, not her sisters,
not me, which she should.

I mean, and then, really,
her coin advisor?

That's his job.

He keep your coin.
You're trippin'.

For your pop-up shop...

I can go in half
at another location.

Let's just see what happens.
Let's just see what it do.

Tamar's saying that
she'd like to invest
in Bar Chix.

However, I think
that our sisterhood

would be better
if she doesn't.

Trust me,
been through it.

Why can't I go
in half with you?

No, you cannot.

Your business manager said
you shouldn't do it
for two, three years.

- I cut the whole
year and a half down.
- We're not doing that.

And-- why?

I don't-- I don't--
that's not what I want.

I am very opinionated
when it comes to my business,

and I am not
a big welcomer

of people who aren't
in an industry

to come and try
to tell me what to do.

You run your mouth
and I run my business.

Trina, you have all these
marketing geniuses
in front of you.

You need to utilize me.

I'm just telling you
'cause,

I mean,
I usually charge for this.

I'm taking everything
into consideration
for this new pop-up.

How about
I invite you guys over

to do a menu tasting
for the pop-up?

Okay.

I want to use my sisters
as taste testers
for my new menu items

because if the Braxton girls
know about anything,

it's singing and food.

You know,
I was thinking about it
the other night in bed,

and I'm glad you mentioned it
because it's not my idea,
this is all yours.

Let me help you
with the menu.

And I'm telling you,
if you trust me
with this menu,

you got you a gold mine
in your face.

Okay, sweetheart.

Logan, are you
gonna listen today?

- Yeah.
- You promise?

- Yes.
- Okay.

So, the whole family's
getting together today

to go to Dr. Barbara King's
church Hillside,

and she's an old friend
of my mom's,

and we just love
coming to her church
and hearing her preach.

Won't He do it?

- Dr. King:
Good morning, church.
-Good morning.

It's an exciting day
because it's a new day.

- Come on.
- You know, when people say,
"You know, I'm only human,"

that's just an excuse
for their mess.

Come on, tell 'em.

Tell.

Okay.

- That blessed me.
- Dr. King: Thank you.

And when you learn
to go to your spiritual self
for your answers,

- and stop looking
outside yourself...
- Come on!

Amen!

- Dr. King:
Greed, hatred...
- Shh!

- ...anxiety, worry,
depression...
- Shh!

all just because
we have kept outside of who
we really are on the inside.

Right!

Well, first of all,
I'm a church girl at heart

and, you know,
I like to go to church
to hear the word.

You know,
all that other stuff
is great for everybody else,

but I like to go to church
'cause I like to speak
in tongues.

Take it, just take it.
Take it, take it, take it.
Exactly.

- I like to shout.
- I'm here for that.

- Come on, Trina.
- I'm here for it.

I like to hear the word
for the week.

Dr. King: And believe
in the power in you

to do what you
have to do.

- You have it.
-And being encouraged

to fight off
all these demons and liars

and witchcraft out here, honey.

Y'all better listen now.
I'm telling you,
that's a word.

There's a lot
of witchcraft out here.

You can't heckle in church.

You can't really receive
what God has for you

if somebody's like,
"Yes! Yeah!

That's for you! Uh!
Preach it!"

Let the shift occur
'cause when the shift occurs,

you know you're gonna make it
through the shift,

- the shift's not
gonna bother you...
- Come on!

...the shift's
not gonna tackle you,

the shift's not
gonna keep you.

- Are you serious?
- Sit down!

Ain't nobody there saved.
Come on now.

Love, forgive,
and keep walking.

I'm gonna say something,
we have a lovely family
with us here.

They're my extended family
and we love them here
at Hillside.

Now, you all gonna sing
a number for us?

Church is where
all of my sisters and I
first started singing,

so when
Auntie Dr. Barbara King

asked us to go up
to perform,

of course we are excited

because it feels like
we're going back to our roots.

Yeah, if that's what
you wanna sing, yes.

One, two, three.

♪ Our Father ♪

♪ Which art in heaven ♪

♪ Hallowed will be... ♪

- ♪ Thy name... ♪
-Singing has
always been our go-to.

It's like we put
everything aside

for those brief
three or four minutes.

♪ Amen. ♪

Hallelujah,
hallelujah.

Hallelujah.

Hallelujah.
Thank you, Jesus.

Tamar, why are you
looking at me like that?

I had to change
my shoes because...

- Why are you wearing
those boots?
- I had to!

Why do you look
like Bollywood, though?

- Don't you love it?
-Logan and Vince
decided to go home.

But just like good
black church people do,

you go to eat
after church.

Usually, you know,
chitlins and hog maw,

but this time, you know,
we got a little coin,

we eating
a little lamb chops.

Well, thank you
for inviting me
to be with you.

- This is wonderful.
-You preached today,
didn't you?

-Yes.
- Hi, Dr. Barbara.

I don't want you to feel
like I'm fitting
to grill you,

but I'm about
to grill you.

I have a couple questions.

Well, you know,
how so many people say
that they forgive

people, but how do you know
when you truly forgive?

Where you have
peace of mind.

What you don't forgive,
you keep it.

The person who did it

is going about
their business.

So, you have to let
the forgiveness

come through you,
so you can be free.

I'm sorry, Auntie Barbara,

I'm trying to forgive.

Lord knows I am trying.

So, Aunt Barbara,
I have a question.

I was just wanting to know

what your take
on divorce was?

- What do you mean by "take"?
- Because some people believe

- that you're supposed
to stay in--
-In the marriage?

You're asking me that,
and I've been divorced
three times?

Dr. King: Let me
tell you something.

Nobody knows what
you're going through
in your house but you.

Ain't that the truth?

Sometimes we all find that

we can't just
make it together.

-Hmm.
- Absolutely.

I'm imagining
you're getting pushback.

Wait a minute,
hold up, hold up.

What did you
just tell me?

Coming up on...

- Books don't lie.
- You're a liar.

Enough
is a freaking enough.

Tamar.

That word
right there, baby?

Spoke to my spirit.

I could barely hear
the sermon today

because with the whole time,

- Tamar's hand
was in my face.
- She was like this.

I was making sure
you were paying attention.

"Trina,
she's talking to you."

I was like,
"Tamar, shut up!
Let me hear!"

I got God in my heart.
You know?

He right here.
"What up, God?"

You know, we're here.

We're here again.
All the time.

- I was right there.
- On the cusp.

- Miss E: On the cusp
of what?
- Of catching a ghost.

What ghost?

- The Holy Ghost.
- Well, you gotta let
me know what ghost.

Tamar says
some different spirits,

you gotta let me know
what the ghost is.

What ghost?

Traci, yes, it's called--

- These ghosts, shady ghosts.
- You're right, Traci.

You know,
it's the Louboutin
shouting ghost.

- Hallelujah.
- You know?

Drinking ghost.
I mean, get up the ghost.

There's a lot of ghosts.

Wait a minute,
hold up, hold up.

What did you
just tell me?

- He wants full custody.
- This is all new to me.

- I did not know any of this.
- You and I both.

You and I
are in the same boat.

No, that's what I'm saying.
I'm in complete utter shock.

That's her kids.

That's just
not going to happen.

You know?

- He wants full custody?
-Yes, I said it.

What does that mean?

Let's not talk
about this right now today.

Let's talk
about this another day.

Well, Towanda. Towanda.

I'm sorry,
you can't hit me
with a mack truck,

and then go say,
"Let's go back

and let's act like
that didn't happen."

- What had happened was?
- Dr. King: Tamar.

- Ma'am?
- Allow her to tell you
what she want to tell you.

I wanna know,
that's why I need to be--

You don't need
to know everything.

Just allow her to tell you
what she want to tell you.

I'm just saying
I didn't know.

Tamar, don't let me
have to spank you now.

I'm so glad we have
Dr. King here

to speak the truth
to Tamar.

And maybe
she'll finally get it.

Thank you, Aunt Barbara!
I love you for that.

- I love you!
-

You know what,
Trina would have a table set
for liquor already.

- I do.
- Trina has invited

me, Traci, and Tamar
to her house,

and I have to be honest.

This is something
that I really need.

I really need to be around
my sisters right now,

and I'm looking forward

to have
some quality sister time,

'cause everybody knows
I like a cocktail

hanging out with Trina.

Can you please
bring me up to speed
on what's happening?

So, what happened?

Nothing happened,
I just was like,

"I don't like living
like this."

- I don't like--
- So, you woke up one day
and said...

It wasn't just one day.

It was gradual situation,
like wanting to grow.

I just felt like
I was just being complacent.

I felt like I was stuck.

It's toxic
when you're not growing.

It's toxic.
That's a toxic area
when you're not growing.

I have never been one

to openly talk
about my relationships.

But it's just time
to break those barriers.

There's no bitterness,
there's no malice.

I just think
that we both deserve

to have someone
who can take us
to another level,

and obviously, it's not
the both of us together.

Oh, that's Daddy.
Hold on. Sorry, guys.

-Hi, Dad.
-Hey, family.

We're sitting here talking
about Towanda's divorce.
Can I ask you a question?

Is there any advice
you wanna offer
your daughter

in regards to her divorce?
What?

- It's ended.
- Well, are you saying
that's what you wish

you would've done?

Mm-hmm.

-Mm-hmm.
- That's the realest thing
you ever said.

I think my dad
would've closed that chapter

with my mom first

before he started
a new relationship.

And I think
that's why my father

can speak about it.

- I'll call you back.
- Bye, Pop-Pop.

-Love you, Pop-Pop.
- Love you. Bye.

Look, at least
I'm bringing my purse.

Well, can you bring
your glass?

- Can you bring your glass?
- Didn't you say
you got a maid?

They're housekeepers.
They're not called maids
anymore.

Yes, they are.

-Hey, chef!
-Hey, hey.

-Hey.
-Hey.

-How are you?
-Come--

I don't want
you guys to look.
Just go sit.

- Just go and sit.
- I hope you already got food.
I'm hungry.

There's food.
There's food already set
on the table.

- Go, go, go, go.
-Hey.

I'mma sit by the chicken.

So, Trina's invited us
over to her house

to taste some new dishes
that she's creating

for her pop-up, Bar Chix.

And if she really wants

an honest,
no-nonsense opinion,

then this is what
I'm here to do.

-Hey.
- What is that right there?

- Arsenic?
- It is buffalo cauliflower.

Just one little bit
of cauliflower

is not
gonna give you arsenic.

Isn't it
arsenic explosives?

Doing this pop-up
is a big risk for me.

It's not really about
making money,

it's just to get research
for a second location.

So, having my sisters
taste the food

helps me cut down on cost,

but they're already calling
my cauliflower arsenic.

So, I'm afraid
I might be making

a huge mistake
by involving them.

- What we here for?
- So, these are Bourbon Wings
made with my bourbon.

Buffalo Cauliflower,

and these are
Black and Blue Sliders.

Love Blue Cheese Sliders
when it's vegetarian.

You know,
why does chicken...

have so many feathers
on it?

It's, like, sometimes

the chicken
got a weave on it.

The chicken good.
It tastes like pecan pie.

Because it's my vanilla
pecan bourbon on it.

- It's sweet.
- But why does it taste
like Pecan Pie Chicken?

Because it's vanilla
pecan bourbon on it.

Can we get some salt
for the chicken?

If you put a little bit
more salt on her,
she'll be good.

No, mm, no.

It need
a little bit more salt.

In sitting down
for the pop-up taste test,

I was really hoping
to get my sisters' feedback,

and tell me
what they like about it

and what they don't like
about it as well.

It's supposed to be sweet,
though, monster.

It's good to me.

I'm not saying
it's not good,

I'm saying it needs
a little salt to...

throw off
some of the sugar.

Yeah, you do need salt.

You know what
you need, too?

Some kind of other sauce,
like bleu cheese or ranch

or something like that.

I don't want
the mayonnaise.

If you have something
to say,

even if
it's something negative,
make it constructive.

Don't make it
so that you're pulling
a digging on somebody.

That's not cool,

no matter what
the situation is.

Where the french fries,
though, with the chicken?

I don't have french fries
with the chicken, Tamar!

Why are you
so against french fries?

I want to know.

Before Bar Chix opened,

all of the sisters
went to check

on the construction,
and Trina started showing us
the menu.

Where the french fries?

There are no french fries.

- You really don't have--
I thought you were--
- There are no french fries.

- You should--
- There are no french fries.

- Polynesian sauce.
- There are no french fries!

Why?

I'm tasting Trina's food,

and my goal
is to be completely honest
with Trina.

I would like french fries.

Why don't you
want french fries
at your restaurant?

Hey, chef, chef,
do you think we should have
french fries at the menu--

at the bar?

It has been asked a lot.

- But, I mean--
- I'm trying to tell her.

- Wait, let him finish.
- I think it'd be a seller.

- It'd be a seller, but--
- I don't want it to be
a seller.

You know, you--
do you not remember

that you asked me
to come over here
for a taste test?

Like...
I'm not trying to be shady.

Coming up on...

There's always going
to be that customer

that just can't
be satisfied.

I don't want
to blow smoke up your ass.

I'm gonna tell you
what I feel.

- You have the worst energy
in the world.
- Your baby father.

In the world.

Trin, you gotta give
the people what they want.

Not what you want.

I give people
what they want.

- No.
- And chicken.

-I know what it is.
- Trina, you just got chicken.

- They only get four pieces.
- It's tapas.

But you still get
a big-ass oxtail

and a big-ass greek cake.

- Which one? Is it too big
or is it too small?
- They were?

- I think those oxtails
are too big.
- Yes.

Oxtails you guys are serving
are for Sunday dinner.

Your portions are huge.

Well, then why
complain about

the four wings,
then, Tamar?

Pick one.

You know,
like I told Trina before.

Opinions
are like ass(bleep).

Everybody have them.

Sometimes they wipe good,
sometimes they don't,

and they leave
their (bleep) around.

I-- I swear to God,
I did not know

Trina was this stubborn
until, like, recently.

- I had no idea.
-You didn't know
Trina was?

- Nope. I had no idea
she was stubborn.
-What?

But here's the thing.
- Okay, Stub.

- What you call her, "Stub"?
- Stub.

- Like stubborn.
-

At the end of the day,

there's always gonna be
that customer

that just can't
be satisfied.

- But I'm not.
- You're that customer.

- "Yous" a lie.
- And that's okay.

You're a liar.
I am not that customer.

I'm that customer
who keeps coming back.

I've been going
to the same neighborhood grill

since I moved to Calabasas.

I am the customer
you want.

Vince and I--
although he don't eat--

we still go out to eat
four to five times a week,

and, like, I just feel like
I'm one of those people

who put my money
where my mouth is.

Literally.

Tamar, you've been
to the bar three times.

You are not
my consistent customer.

...who sells things
successfully...

- In a different way.
It's a different realm.
- ...and what I know is--

- No, not as a customer.
- It's totally different.

- If I'm going to a-- lie.
- It's not.

Guess what,
if I'm in the market
for a pair of shoes,

- I want my size,
I want what fits me.
- Can I tell you something?

Your customers
have been asking
for french fries

- for two years, right?
- Tamar, at the end
of the day,

french fries is not gonna make
or break my business.

- That's where you're wrong.
- And no, I'm not wrong.

We've been successful.

We've been in the black
all this time.

And I understand
that you might want
some french fries.

- I'm the consumer.
- My books don't lie.

Tamar's my baby sister,
and I love her more
than life itself.

But when you're henpecked
so many times,

I'm telling you,

back me into a corner,
I'll come scratching like--

Say everything
you need to say.

Trina, grow up.

And there you have it.

Don't tell Trina
how you feel.

She gonna jump
down your throat
like she did me.

- No.
- I don't know why
she got us here

if she don't want us
to tell the truth.

Why are you
in your feelings?

Because I'm gonna agree
with everything you say.

You're one of those people,
and that's why--

- That's a part
of the problem.
- No, that's you, Tamar.

- You're in your feelings.
- No, it's not about me
being in my feelings--

okay, then I'm not
gonna talk

because I just wanna get
my point across.

I know that's not
gonna happen.

No, it's important
that you do.

Okay, you think
it's important that I do, thanks.

What I'm saying is--
especially when you invite
people over

to taste your menu,
you're supposed
to tell them

how you really feel
about it.

Not blowing smoke
up your ass.

I'm not here for that.

I don't want
to blow smoke up your ass.

I'm gonna tell you
what I feel

as a customer
who almost spent $400
the other day

at your bar-- what I feel

as a customer--
not eating for free,

not eating
on a family discount--

what I think is missing
because you asked.

Not because
I wanna give you
some unsolicited advice.

- You asked.
- All this over french fries?

- Tamar, you feel about this
over french fries?
- It's not about french fries!

Oh, Trina,
grow the (bleep), man.

Oh, I would love
to tell you the same thing.

- Did I mention french fries?
I did.
- What did you mention, Tamar?

I mentioned
do what you wanna do,

and stay where you are.

Well, how about--
you know what?

Thank you
for that encouragement.

- You're welcome.
- I appreciate that.

I think that Tamar
is doing too much,

and I think that Trina
is being oversensitive.

And this is not the time

for my sisters to be arguing
with each other

because, selfishly,
I need my sisters right now.

I need for them
to grow up,

put their big thongs on,

have a cocktail,
and relax.

Okay, why is everybody
in their feelings today?

I'm not in my feelings,
but, you know, like,

as sisters,
I do feel like we do have
a certain responsibility.

Like, I really
wanna tell her

that her wings
taste like syrup,

but I'm not trying
to hurt her feelings.

Like, I'm not trying to,

you know,
(bleep) on nobody.

It's
my sister's restaurant,
and I want her

to be successful,
so I feel like

it's my responsibility
not to walk out this house

knowingly, that her wings
taste like syrup

or-- I'm not
gonna do that.

If she's not ready to--
you have to be ready
to receive--

- But you did just do that.
- Because, like,
if I told Traci--

we talking about
her record, and I'm like,

"Traci, them vocals
don't sound good."

We sing that song,
she's not supposed to get
in her feelings,

she's supposed to take
our advice and do that.

Enough
is a freaking enough.

And this, it's not--
you're not gonna (bleep)
on nobody

- 'cause you're telling them
the truth.
- Mm-mm.

- I don't agree with that.
- You-- oh, what,
you're gonna lie?

- I don't agree
with that, Tamar.
- You're supposed to lie?

Tamar, think about
what you're saying, Tamar.

- I know exactly what
I'm saying, it's wrong.
- No, Tamar, Tamar.

- Think about what
you're saying.
- I know exactly

- what I'm saying.
- Think about the things
that's come out your mouth.

- I know what the (bleep)
I'm saying.
- Tamar.

- Ta-- I ain't cuss at you.
- She knows what she's saying.

- These are not on her menu.
-I understand that.

Tamar.

- Tamar.
- What am I saying wrong?
These are not on her menu.

- She said come taste the food
so I could talk.
- Tamar.

Okay, she said taste the food.
She said taste the food.

- And she-- okay, and she--
I didn't say that.
- So, lie.

- So, tell me what you say.
- And then, taste the food.

- Suggest to her, Tamar--
no, Tamar.
- I did!

- Tamar. Tamar.
- I said,
"Can I get some salt?"

- She knows what
she's saying, Traci.
- Did I not say that?

Traci, she knows
what she's saying.

I don't feel like
that's anything bad.

- I'm not (bleep) on nobody.
- Tamar, you know exactly what
you're saying,

- know exactly
what you're doing.
- Trina, grow up.

- I'm not trying
to (bleep) on nobody.
- I'm not the one who needs

- to grow up, you grow up.
- Hold on,
wait a minute, guys.

- Wait a minute.
- I'm not gonna do
a transference energy

- with this right here.
- I have great energy.

-Listen to what
I'm saying.
- No, you-- actually,

- you have the worst energy
in the world.
- Listen, listen.

In the world.

- Yeah, he does too.
-Oh, I know.

So does yours.

Now put that (bleep)
in your corn cob pipe

and smoke that,
mother(bleep), 'cause ain't
anybody got time for this.

- Don't (bleep) play
with me.
- What you-- what? What?

You're pathetic.

- Yes, you are.
- Trina, grow up.

You grow up.
Raise your child by yourself.

Who the (bleep)
you think you're talking to?
