All right, ginger carrot tagliatelle is
up. I need another 12 -sheet cup for

tonight. John, tell Brenda to pair eight
of each per net.

Pair it with our garlic roasted peppers
and top it with pesto. Thank you.

We just booked Mayor Trotter's dinner
party for next month.

He wants...

Honey roasted garlic bread, our hot
pesto gnocchi, and a provolone salad

extra dressing. How did you know that?

Because what he orders every time we
come in.

I just wish his palate was as well
developed as his plans to revive

Telly, of all the places he could have
catered, he chose us, you, because you

are amazing. Oh, that reminds me, on the
14th, you are booked for a cooking

segment for In the City Live.

I mean, with all this free publicity, I
don't know why you won't let me plan a

grand opening.

You've been open for three months
already. Yes. You don't just throw an

party right when you start. It's like
sex.

Okay, Kelly? Yes, like sex.

You get the man interested, and then you
build up some rapport, and then when

things are finally hot, then you grand
open it. That's right. Oh, Kelly.

Okay.

There's a small army of tourists outside
that would love a picture with Miss

Delicious from the book cover.

Yay.

Okay. Oh, no, no, no. You're not just
going to go out like that.

Oh, yeah.

One second.

Nancy, look, you are a gorgeous woman,
but sometimes we need lip

gloss. Okay.

Girl, let me plan an opening party for
the restaurant.

Get us some press, bring in more
business. I mean, isn't that the point?

get a hold of my son? Oh, yeah. I tried
him twice. It went straight to

voicemail. So, are you on board?

For an opening party? Try Isaiah again,
please. He's fine.

He's doing what teenage boys do.

I am reading the look. I will call him
again. Thank you.

You are photo ready.

Bellissima. Okay, two about the opening
party. No or yes?

Fine. Yes to the party, but it's all
you.

I've got a lot on my plate. I will plan
it all.

Yay! And I'll call Isaiah.

This buyout makes both of us very
wealthy, Daria.

My company already makes me wealthy.
That's why I sold you a majority stake,

right? A silent partner, capital to
grow, all of that. And you did fine. We

wouldn't be getting this offer if you
hadn't. What, four times what the

company's worth? It's a company that I
would no longer be a part of. But that's

your choice. The offer to stay is there.

I started this company with my wife out
of my basement.

This was her legacy.

I understand that this is hard, but
selling right now is the right thing.

And trust that your company is in good
hands. It was already in good hands.

Mine. Okay.

Think about the offer to stay on.

And I will contact you once you've had
some time to think about it.

Hey, Jake.

I'm... Yep.

About that. I don't know if I can make
it tonight. I had a really awful...

great. Then you can go with your
friends. Yes. Have a good time. Because

not... Yeah. I will...

Call for VIP.

Yes, you will get... Yes, the entire
booth.

I promise.

Oh, look, I gotta get out of here.

Oh, my God.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

Dad,

turn around.

Turn around.

You are in trouble, young lady.

This isn't what it looks like. That's
exactly what it looks like. Dad, stop.

are embarrassing me. I'm embarrassing
you. Sorry about this. Who are you

apologizing to? Me? Because I caught
you?

He was on top of you and his hands were
up your shirt.

I will see you. You were apologizing to
him. See you at school.

You were apologizing because I'm a
loving and caring father.

Can you move your SUV, please? Go on.

My phone's dead. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You'll be safe. The neighborhood's
perfectly fine.

It's like two miles. Even for two miles.
Go away.

Go away.

You didn't have to humiliate me. I
didn't humiliate you.

Okay.

Listen up.

I love him, Dad. I love Isaiah.

You don't love him.

You do not love him. I barely know him.
You're not here half the time. Because

I'm working so that we can afford this
house that has that bedroom that you're

dry -humping.

That's why I'm not here.

If you're so in love with him, why are y
'all sneaking around?

I was in my room, not parked in some
alley with the window steamed up,

out his name, Dad. I'm about to be on
such a big punishment. Punishment?

Punishment? You are a Philistine.

You work...

All the time, and I never see you. And
when you're here, you're all up in my

business. And you know what?

Mom would be so disappointed in you. She
would be so disappointed in you. It's

called parenting.

Okay. By myself.

Look at me. How do you think Mom would
have felt if she saw you?

Huh? She would have been all up in your
business.

She would not have let that boy
upstairs.

And you know it.

I've called you a dozen times. Why
didn't you answer your phone?

No, you did.

Sophia called me. Isaiah, when I call
you, you pick up your phone. Do you

understand? Yes, ma 'am.

Hey, I'm sorry.

I had to walk home.

Where's your car?

At that guy's house. We were studying,
and then her dad came home and went all

crazy.

And?

He blocked my car in. Wouldn't let me
leave.

Why?

Why did he block you in, Isaiah?

Okay, where are you going?

I'm going to get your car.

No, please, Mom.

We were in a room studying, and we
started kissing. Oh, my God! Isaiah,

having sex? No, we weren't having sex,
okay? She's not Julie.

She's smart, and she plays sports.

And she wants to go to Howard, too, Mom.

Just like me. That's great.

Is there anything else I should know?

Kelly Pellman, Isaiah Pellman's mother.

Oh, is my daughter's bra still attached
to his watch?

Mind showing your face?

Look, I got a lot going on here, so...
Why couldn't you just move your car

instead of making my son walk home? And
if you think you were teaching him a

lesson, that's not your place.

Okay, well, I'm sorry. The next time I
find your son on top of my daughter,

make him a snack and drive him home to
his mommy.

Well, your daughter did invite a boy up
to her room. I'm well aware of her

participation in this. Thank you.

Could you move your SUV, please?

Damn,

don't any of y 'all know how to park in
the street?

He overreacts to everything.

So does she.

I think I'm going to start taking care
of the yard myself, Mom. I need some new

hobbies.

Cry me a river, son.

You retired early. You're young. You got
money. Why don't you do something fun?

Something fun? I don't want to do
anything fun.

I just want my company back.

Well, they asked you to stay on.

Yeah. I like my old boss.

Yeah, of course you did.

What was this whoop -dee -doo yesterday
with you and your daughter?

I spoke to you? Yeah.

That's what grandparents and
grandchildren do because we share a

Look, part of this is your fault.

You said you would keep an eye on her
while I'm working. I've got a life, too.

You want some advice?

Yeah, of course you don't. But I wiped
your behind and paid for your college

tuition, so you are going to listen.
Yes, ma 'am. Stop!

being so afraid of Kai growing up. She's
a smart girl.

I mean, if I hadn't come home, imagine
what she could have done with that kid.

Oh, no problem. She's on birth control.

What? How?

When?

I took her.

She's 16, son.

Without my permission.

I wasn't worrying about asking your
permission.

I'd rather ask for the forgiveness,
especially about this.

Kai is going to have sex.

I'd rather she wait till later, but
she's in love.

So?

You should be thanking me. For usurping
my authority?

Did you intend on doing this for her?
Absolutely not. If you didn't like the

and his mother when you met them, what
do you think your life would be like if

she had a baby with Isaiah?

You're welcome.

Yes, this is her.

He did what?

She did what?

Principal Martinson will be with you
shortly.

Thank you.

While you're waiting, would you mind? Of
course.

Yeah. Make it out to Trina?

Yeah. I loved it.

I... Tried some of the recipes.

But what I really love is it's so
inspiring and full of black girl magic.

Plus a lot of sacrifice and a great deal
of work.

What a journey to go from being broke
with a small child to... Being in the

principal's office because of that
child.

Yep.

And here you are.

Thank you.

And congratulations to you too, Mr.
Stone.

Thank you.

Should I know who you are?

I mean, outside of being Isaiah's mom.

I'm sorry about the other day.

I overreacted, which I can do.

No, that was not me. I was having a
horrible day. I didn't come home and see

daughter in bed.

I get it, yeah.

I almost lost it.

So did you write that book?

After I got my business going.

Yeah, I own the old pasta over on Mason.

Oh, wow.

Yeah. Cool.

So that tops my literary ethic.

What about you? What was that
congratulations for?

Oh, um, I owned a business that got
bought out by a bigger business.

Oh. Yeah.

Oh, hi, Ms. Hellman.

Hello, Julie.

Isaiah can do better.

My son's ex -girlfriend.

And now this is making a lot more sense.

Your son's ex -girlfriend, Julie Carson,
had a conflict with Isaiah and Kai.

Please don't suspend Isaiah.

We're in the process of applying to
college.

They're not being suspended, but this
Saturday, every student involved in the

conflict is required to come to the
school for three -hour shifts and pick

trash around campus.

Sounds fair.

With their parents.

One

would

never make such a big deal out of this.

You think I'm tough?

My mama was way tough.

She'd have you all put it through
college.

I don't want to hear it.

Phone.

Seriously, Ma? It's not that big of a
deal. It is a big deal, Isaiah.

You are in the process of applying to
colleges.

Listen, Dad, if you want to be a tyrant,
go do it at work to your employees.

Well, I don't have employees anymore,
Ms. Sunshine.

So how about that?

I'm going to be around a lot more, so
you better get used to it.

Look. Here.

I know.

That not having your father in your life
is not easy. Who said I don't have my

father?

A tyrant like you must give up.

You mean like you did with mom?

What did you say?

Answer the question.

He found me on social media and we've
been talking every once in a while.

It's not that big of a deal. When?

I don't know. The last time was probably
like two weeks ago.

So seven years of no contact and he's,
what, secretly calling you? When she was

dying, you gave up.

Spent all your time at work while she
was sick, Dad. So, yeah, yeah.

No, I have sole custody. He wants to
talk to you. He comes through me. I'm

almost 18 years old. This is why I don't
tell you anything.

You have no idea. You have no idea what
I did for her. You had no idea what she

wanted. No idea!

What's he wanted?

You have no idea. Don't you ever say
that to me again.

I don't tell you.

And then he's in the car telling me he
texted him.

I don't know, Ruben. Am I wrong?

My son can't understand why this would
upset me.

No onions today?

Midweek.

Did you really think your son's father
would disappear forever?

Hey, look. I have something special.

Porcini mushrooms.

That aroma.

It's perfect for your sauces.

I'm sorry.

I got sick when I was on my honeymoon.

How I found out I was pregnant.

You're not pregnant now.

Not unless three wise men are looking
for my house. No, I am not.

But these would be good in a cream
sauce.

Thank you.

It's a great read.

She's amazing. Oh.

Okay.

Take me out, please.

Remember that? When you could just spend
time with someone special and chat

about nothing?

I don't ever remember chatting about
nothing.

Oh. Come on, Mr. Stone. Not even when
you and your wife are dating?

Oh, no. You're already going soft on
them. Miss Palmer.

It's Kelly, and I'm not going soft. I'm
going soft on them.

Observing. They're sweet.

They are? Okay. Come on. Put that down.
Follow me.

No. Where?

Mr. Stone. Hey. How are you doing?

Very well.

Very well. You see those two over there?

Yeah. They're our kids, and we are the
idiot parents that are cleaning up after

them. That's going to stop. We're
staging a break.

I'm taking this delicious divorcee out
of here. You tell the kids to clean up

after themselves.

After you.

There'll be a gift basket on your desk
on Monday.

So you'll build your business. That's
exciting.

Yeah, I started that business with my
wife.

She had this simple but great idea of
helping mothers basically plan their

Working mothers.

Anything that...

That needs to be done, gets done, and,
you know, she would make sure she left

time in for friends and family.

Yeah, it was very unique.

And she would tailor it to fit every
type of woman. Oh, my God, you're

about Lila.

Yeah.

I'm obsessed.

I have it on my phone, everywhere,

my computer.

I mean, when I first started my
business, I wouldn't have survived

I'm impressed.

That's great. Well, don't be impressed
with me.

All I did was take her genius and bring
some practicality to it. She was

obsessed with time.

She would pack everything in every day.

She sounds amazing.

Yeah.

Yeah. That business outside of Kai was
the only thing that I had that we kind

shared.

Well, there's always an opportunity for
a second hand.

That's a good one.

All right, Jade.

Where?

Okay, fine.

Hold up, hold up. What time? What time?

Yes. See you tonight.

Sorry. Any plans?

Just meeting up with some friends at
Echo.

It's a club, right?

Yes. Would you want to join us?

I'm probably a crowd that they're not
used to.

My girl that I'm seeing is younger.

Are you apologizing? Oh, no, I'm not.

I'm just explaining.

Okay. Well, thank you.

But I have a date.

Okay, cool.

You sound surprised.

No, I'm not surprised.

I mean, look at you. I'm not surprised.
If you're bored, stop by.

Okay.

Why would I be bored?

You think I'm incapable of having a nice
time with someone I just met? Are you

going to take everything I say as an
insult?

Is that what we're doing?

Six minutes max.

That's authentic.

It is. It's supposed to be chewy. That's
why Italians are not. No, no, no. Stop,

stop. Hey. No, no, no. Stop, stop. Hey.

Oh, my God.

Hey.

We got to look both ways next time,
okay?

Are you good?

Look at me.

Are you good?

Get out of here. Be careful, y 'all.

That was crazy.

What are you smiling at?

Nothing. Just when I thought my first
impression of you was spot on, you do

something vaguely heroic.

Here we go.

You're an interesting man, Mr. Stone.

Right back at you, pal.

Marketing is about image.

And you know when you've won that PR
war?

When the name on everyone's lips when
they think of Nuevo Pasta is you.

Kelly Pelman.

That's really... Who's representing you?

I'm sorry. Who has stepped up to make
you, Kelly Pelman, a global phenomenon?

A global phenomenon?

Hey, you believe big, you'll be big.

Okay.

John.

Yeah, um, I only agreed to this because
Sophia has been

on me to get out more.

And, uh, she said you thought I was
attractive, uh, so I thought... I didn't

think you were attractive or we wouldn't
be here.

I don't care what you're good at.

Ugly doesn't sell.

But I can market the hell out of you.

I'm okay with you retiring.

But does this mean, like, we can still
get VIP, right?

Is that why you're dating me?

I mean, that's just the fun of dating
someone so successful.

I mean, come on. It's not like we're
still mates. Huh?

It's not like we're still mates.

Another bottle.

Your card.

I'ma say so, just so much my bae knows
Getting pissed off, no judge gave no

sense My whole life's on face, so I'm
the headliner Stepping out on the

Minnesota Diner Hey, coach, I'm the
headliner Watch me, baby, I'm a big

Hey, I'm the headliner Stepping out on
the Minnesota Diner Hey,

I'm the headliner Watch me, baby, I'm a
big plumber

He's with me.

Oh, you made it. Yeah.

It's really loud.

I think you're right. It's not really my
scene.

Wait here.

Oh, can we get a big one? We need a big
one.

Wait, hold on, hold on. Huge, expensive.

There's enough on this card, son.

My daughter's boyfriend's mother's here.

Yeah. Okay, a stalker is, but it's fine.
Invite her in. That's okay.

Um, no.

I'm gonna go.

Huh.

Whatever.

Whatever.

Fine. I got another one. I got another
one.

So, after about a year or so,

Everybody was trying to set me up. It
was like they put some kind of a limit

how long I could mourn for her.

Yeah. It was funny. I was so heartbroken
that I found myself gravitating

towards girls that I just knew I would
never be with because I missed you so

much.

Right. I didn't want to replace her.

And these women were like so far.

So far from what I... Yeah.

How long has it been?

Five years, four months.

Leukemia.

I'm sorry. Yeah.

Sorry. Oh.

My son's phone. I complicated it. Oh,
you're a good mother.

My God.

It's Isaiah's father.

You want to take that or...

Well, I haven't spoken to him in seven
years. Oh, boy.

He abandoned us.

This is awkward.

Do you think, do you think?

Arthur, it's Kelly.

Until you come up with the money you
stole, the child support you owe, and

something towards Isaiah's education,
there will be no next time.

You try and call him again, much like
see him, I'll have my lawyers at your

front door.

You understand?

Whoa.

You all right?

I'm sorry. That's okay.

It felt good to say that. It sounded
like it. It hurts in my head.

A thousand times.

Okay. Are you good, though, for real?

Yeah, I am. All right.

You sure?

Yeah.

Do you want to try to stop it tonight?

Yeah. Okay.

Remind me to never get on your bad side.

Okay.

Can you trust me?

Um, sure.

Here we go.

Oh.

I know, right?

Here we go.

What is this?

Cool, right? Big Mike. Mr. Stone, my
man. What's up? How you doing tonight?

I'm all right, Mike Kelly. Kelly Mike.
Mike, pleasure to meet you. Nice to meet

you, too. Absolutely. Let me get my
three and six glasses, please.

Yes, sir. I got you. How you been? I'm
good, man. Did you hear Oscar's going to

sell the place?

Yeah, man. He's the owner.

He's turning 84.

You know, he's been running the place
since the 80s.

Wants to sell, but...

He's afraid that some suburban douche
might buy it and it won't be the same.

Goddamn. Yeah, man.

I don't like this place to go.

Ah, there's a distillery in the back.
Oh.

Carries a bunch of bourbon, such as this
one right here.

Want to try? Yeah.

This one is for the purists.

That is smooth. Right? Delicious.

They distill it here?

Well, not this one. This one's mine,
actually.

Wait, you make bourbon? I do. You make
pasta and sauce, and I distill bourbon

my basement.

Darius, this is amazing.

Thank you.

I think you have your next business.

It's a hobby.

Actually, no.

It's a passion of mine. Oh, so now we
have passions. Yes, we do.

Well, that's a new thought of you, Mr.

Stone. I've got many sides.

Many sides.

I love this place.

Easy. Oh.

Are you thinking of your wife?

How'd you know that?

Because I haven't danced like that since
I was married.

Well... No, that...

Wasn't a hint. It's okay. It's just one
dance.

We probably both can use it. Come on.

Oh. Wow.

Bye -bye.

You're welcome.

Thank you for being my date.

Because it's been a long time since I've
spent time with a woman.

Rather than a girl?

Exactly. I'm sorry. That's all right.
You're right. I'm sorry. You're right.

You're right.

Hey. I need to grow up. Yes. I have the
opening of my restaurant next month.

Congratulations. Thank you. Good for
you.

And I'd love it if you came.

Sounds fancy.

Oh, you're inviting me? Yeah.

Absolutely. When is it?

Next month.

The 11th. That sounds like it on the
11th.

I'm going to check my calendar.

Great. That sounds like it. Should I
dress up?

I want to. That sounds great. That
sounds like it would be a lot of fun.

We should get a cab, you know. I don't
want anything to happen to my

new... Friends.

I said that, yeah. We're good friends.

Yeah. Yeah.

We're... Uh -oh. Whoa.

I'm sorry.

No.

I'm sorry. That was inappropriate.

I'm... I'm drunk.

I'm a little drunk, too, and I... You
know, I let you do that. No.

What is going on here?

Okay. The thing is the bourbon. Yes.
Okay.

We should go to bed.

Yes.

Separately. Oh, right.

Of course.

That's what I meant.

Thank you. So you go to bed. Okay.

Great night.

Separately. Separate.

One. Hey, you didn't get with that guy

on a first date, did you?

Boundaries, but no.

We'll cut the outs away.

What's this?

It's called breakfast.

How stupid do you think I am?

You're trying to make up for whatever
you did last night, whatever it is. I

don't care. Just don't try and make up
for it with breakfast, because it only

makes me wonder how bad it is.

It came from a toaster. Relax.

I feel like I made you eggs Benedict or
anything. No denial.

Oh, and about being on punishment. Maybe
it was a little too hard on you. You

know what you did, right?

Oh, my God. Please tell me you didn't
get drunk and marry that idiot model

named after a rock.

No, I didn't marry Jade. I just, um, I
just want to be fair.

Oh, I apologize.

I feel like I may have crossed the line
last night. Yeah, I don't do that sort

of thing either.

Right, I mean, it was just a kiss,
right?

Yeah.

Um, look, don't take this the weird way
it's going to sound, but I feel like I

cheated on my son last night.

That's it.

Ah, I've been trying to figure out what
has been bothering me. Me too.

I feel like I'm betraying Kai.

Yeah.

It's just that I had the most amazing
night last night with you.

Hey, Mom.

Yeah? Can I go to Kai? Her dad
ungrounded her.

Don't park in the driveway.

You ungrounded your daughter?

Yeah, I caved.

Did you ask him if he had his phone yet?

Yeah, I did.

Oh, he's kind now.

Probably going to ask me if I can come
over.

By the way, would it be possible for me
to stop by for a couple of minutes?

Just to talk.

Um, I don't think it's such a good...

You know what?

Yeah.

Come over.

Okay, good. Good, I'll, uh, I'll see you
later.

Yeah.

Yes, Isaiah can come over.

How'd you know? Just, uh, I'll let him
upstairs.

Just a kiss, right? This is so good.
Thank you.

Eggs and purgatory.

I make my own Fred DiAvila stuff. Oh,
good.

And even if they weren't in love.

Yeah, can you believe that? Do they
think we're idiots?

Even if they weren't, whatever it is
that they think. You got a lot going on.

Yeah, too much. Right? Too much going
on. And my life is totally up in the

It's not the right time to get involved.

With anyone.

So we had a little too much bourbon, you
know? I know. It happens.

I know.

On a night that started out awful.

All right, well, thank you for the
breakfast.

Yeah, I'm glad we got that settled.
Absolutely. I should get out of here.

Oh, you.

Thank you.

We got it?

I should get out of here.

Thank you.

That was good.

Um, did I... Oh.

Did I leave... Yeah. My...

I'm never tired.

I want to show you that I need you all
night.

I've been waiting on you to give me what
I need.

But no one else can do me better.

Found something else you could have.

Mr. Stu.

I hope so.

Definitely a team effort.

Who's that?

Isaiah! Stay!

Stay! What are you doing?

Are you in your robe? It's like the
middle of the day.

Uh, I came up to read in my bed and I
don't want to be here.

Outside clothes, girl. Uh, what are you
doing here? Why aren't you at Kai's

house? I did not want to be there when
her dad got home.

You know, Kai was telling me that he
only dates sleazy gold diggers.

Can you believe it?

Man's a man.

Makes so much sense though, right?

Uh, I'm gonna go hoop with the boys.

You look a little flush.

You feeling all right?

Very manageable.

Mm, gross.

One of those days.

I love you. Love you, too.

Well,

I've just been labeled a sleazy gold
digger.

But seriously, can we not? Can we not
tell them?

Not yet.

It'll change everything.

Let's just keep it between you and me
for a while.

Yeah, sure.

Then, um... Until we know.

Yeah. Right on.

Okay. At least... Okay.

I get over here.

Thank you.

Dropped off a gift.

Oh, it's, um, from a friend.

Uh -huh. A friend. Oh, okay.

Uh -huh.

A friend.

Hey, can someone get me the butter and
sage?

I want to try something.

I love it when you get ideas.

Why don't you go before Kai comes home?
What?

We got a whole nother hour.

There's a lot we could do in an hour.

Come on.

All right.

I want to tell you something, but I
don't want you to freak out.

I'm not going to freak out.

I've enjoyed our time together.

You know, there's...

There's not a part of my life that's
just mine.

is falling for you.

But I like when you said that.

One's better.

We've got to tell them.

Okay.

That's a cool necklace you've got there,
right? Yeah.

So, Miss Pillman and I have been
together a lot lately.

Um, as parents.

Right. Um, hanging out.

Just getting to know each other.

Yeah, which is a good thing.

How is everyone doing this afternoon?

Great.

Good.

Mm -hmm.

Okay, um, could I get one of you a
drink?

I know, I definitely could use a, um...
Well...

Actually, I got a huge tip for you. If
you go, pull some of your vests. Or I've

been right after you. Give us a couple
of moments of privacy.

Thanks, buddy.

Thank you.

Um, I think... Listen, Kai, we're not...
You go first.

You've been on me to, you know, get out
there, move on with my life.

Thanks, Kai. You keep saying how you
hate the girls that I see.

Right. Go ahead.

No, no, no. I don't hate them. I'm just
perplexed by their reason to exist.

Well, either way, we think maybe this
could, you know, help solve that.

This is a joke, right?

What? Dad, tell me you're kidding. What?
You're not kidding?

What? Look at their hands. Look at them.

You guys are just playing, right?

Be for real, guys. No, there's no way.

Mom, it's a joke. It's got to be.

We were kind of hoping you'd be more.

More supportive.

Supportive? Okay, well, sure, Dad. Maybe
we can all just run away and join the

circus, right?

Oh, come on out. Look. I don't even know
if I want to ask this question, but are

you guys, um, are you guys doing it? Oh,
no.

Oh, no. Why did I?

Sometimes.

Well, yes.

Look.

Derry, Mr.

Stone, and I, we're...

We are adults.

In the prime of our lives. I'm mom.
You're 40 years old. And he hates me. I

don't hate you. And I'm 37.

That's close enough.

40 is the new 30, anyway. 40 is the new
40, and it always will be. Come on now,

for real. Y 'all are overreacting. You
have no clue what it's like at school,

Dad. They pick on you for every little
thing. And this right here, this is not

little thing. This is our parents having
sex. Having sex.

And if people find out at school, we'll
be eaten alive.

Haven't I always taught you to be your
own person? Okay, well. I don't care

other people think. You're not trying to
survive high school, Dad. I am.

Okay, I, we, we are, okay, and if this,
if this is your midlife crisis, you need

to get over it. You need to get over it.
You know, I liked you better when you

were an absent workaholic.

Really did.

Ty, Ty, you guys are ruining Ty and I's
life. This can't happen.

It's hypocritical. It's not fair.

They're on the house.

What are you doing here, Mama?

No, I came here to see what's going on.

And then because of the kids, we started
hanging out a lot, like a lot.

And, um, yeah, it would be nice if Ty
could be happy or even

just understand, but I can't let her
dictate my life.

Son, there's a lot of women you could
date.

I've dated a lot of women.

You dated?

girls who dated you because you're a
handsome black man with a black card.

Now you want to date a woman but like
this one.

Do you think this is wrong?

I think it's foolish.

Kelly is the first woman since Sarah
where I don't have to

pretend to be comfortable.

Isaiah is Kai's first love.

How many first loves survive?

Yours did.

Look, I know it's difficult for all of
you, but if you don't do the right

she's going to end up hurt along with
everybody else.

Well, I'll answer it.

Oh, wow.

This is really good. What is it?

Bourbon sauce.

Not my bourbon.

Yeah?

Do you like it?

Yeah, it's unbelievable.

Okay, well, great, because I want to
sell it, but I need your permission, of

course.

Oh, boy.

No!

Let's go.

Damn, son, you're getting good.

I'm trying. You're getting good.

Hey, I wanted to ask you, that girl you
got.

Kai? Yeah.

You're being careful?

Yeah.

All right, you got to be smart.

You know, having a kid, it changes
things.

You know, I loved your mom, but... After
you came along, she became a whole

other person.

But, you know, that's not my problem
now, right?

You are.

All I got to worry about is you.

You want to play again?

Let's do it.

Hey, if this will blow over, some other
drama will take its place. Sarah always

knew how to get through to her.

I think I may have missed the window to
be the parent that she needs.

You're a great parent.

And you love your kid.

She's unhappy about us. She's not
unhappy about you.

Well, thank you. I needed to hear that.

I mean, no, but I am sorry.

Yes. Mom has made this new pasta sauce.
You have to try it. Really? Yeah, it's

so good.

I want to.

Wait.

Um, what's all this scene?

I, I don't know. What did you do?

I didn't do anything. What did you do? I
didn't do anything.

Okay, well, um, I think it's...

Perfectly okay that you and your future
sister are a couple.

What are you talking about?

Oh, you don't know, Kyle.

I'm sad.

Julie.

Not a good look.

Isaiah. Isaiah, take me home.

Take me home. Isaiah, take me home. Hey,
you're blaming your sister? I mean, I

get it, but damn.

Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.

No, let's leave. Come on, let's leave.

Come on, guys, really?

Please, let's go. Oh, he's getting
suspended for sure.

It's your fault.

All my fault?

I am not the one who started a fight
with 20 other kids watching.

God, this is going to look great on your
college application. Not everything is

about college. Then why am I working so
hard, Isaiah?

Because you want to.

You are the delicious divorcee. Stop
acting like this is all about me when

really all about you. Is that what you
think?

All right.

What's going on?

Come on, tell me. What's going on?

Julie has pictures of you and Mr. Stone
making out at the park and the whole

school saw it.

Okay, I get suspended because I'm
defending myself.

Kai's not even talking to me anymore.
And all you want to do is talk about

college so that I can get out of your
house.

Isaiah. No. Look, we are going to figure
this out together.

Okay? You and Kai... You don't know me
anymore, Mom. You don't even listen to

anymore.

I'm going to death.

At least he cares. Isaiah!

Sweetie.

Go take your stuff and wait in the car
for me.

Babe.

It's temporary. She will forgive you. I
don't need her forgiveness.

See things from her perspective.

She met a boy that she's crazy about.
And in sweeps her daddy, romancing

his mother.

I don't know how that happened.

It doesn't matter how it happened.

It's how it is.

Look, Kelly is a beautiful lady. Might
even be the perfect mate for you. But

it's more complicated than that.

Especially for a teenage girl. I'm in
love with Kelly.

At an imperfect time for your daughter.

I'm not saying that you have to pick
or... I'm not gonna pick. You don't have

pick.

It's not about them.

It's about you.

You.

You need to figure yourself out.

Come on.

Look, I know you're upset with me.

Hi, Kelly.

Isaiah moving in with me.

Yeah.

This isn't about him. This is about what
you're doing. What I'm doing.

What I'm doing.

Okay, so we're just going to skip over
the part where you left us with nothing.

And now you're trying to weasel your way
back into our lives.

No, no. He asked to live with me.

While you deal with your problems.

Is this what you want?

Look at me. Don't yell at the boy. Get
up.

Get out of my house so I can speak to my
son.

I'll be outside if you need me, son.

Have I ever not had a roof over your
head?

Or clothes on your back?

Or food on the table?

Have I not been there for your homework
and every doctor's appointment?

And I've gotten you up every day so you
can get to a school I bust my ass to pay

for!

You are what I love most in this world,
Isaiah!

I didn't mean to fall in love.

I'm your mother.

I'm a woman, too.

I love... I love you!

Your father is out there, and I am here,
where I have always been.

Right next to you.

You... You can decide where you'd like
to live.

You're not going to school?

I'll finish the year on one.

Oh. Well, I'm going to have to tell your
dad.

Look, I know it's been rough, but your
dad, he's really going through it right

now. Running a business that he and your
mother started with a given purpose,

and now they've just sold it out from
under him. You are the only thing he has

to remind him of his dad.

He cares more about that company than
me.

Oh, honey.

That business was your mother's idea,
but it was your dad who made it a

and gave us all a good life.

And I am thankful for that.

And you should be, too.

And your mom got sick.

Your dad wanted to drop everything to
take care of her full time, but she

wouldn't let him.

But he still...

made sure that you had everything.

And even with the best care, best
hospital, and best doctor,

we still lost your mom.

But he kept working himself to the bone

to make sure you had everything, the
best of everything.

Don't say he doesn't love you.

Why didn't I know this?

Baby.

Heroes never tell their own story.

You want to go grab a drink?

Might need one.

What?

You're scaring me.

$3 ,000 a month in support?

That's why Arthur wants Isaiah, that
shiesty bastard.

No. No!

Okay, you know what? You just ain't the
word. You just say the word, and my

cousin Trey can handle this. I'll handle
Arthur.

He thinks I'm the same woman I used to
be.

Hey, let me know if I have to break some
legs, okay?

Thank you.

How many of those jars did we put out
today?

Um, five dozen, I think.

Stuff is gold.

It looks like someone just shot his dog.

Call me later, okay?

Hey.

Yeah.

Thanks. I'm sorry that you got dragged
into this whole thing.

Hmm.

Well, I was on a roll.

The door, the book. I thought I was... I
was a wonderful man, too.

I just didn't expect to fall in love
like I did.

No, you definitely danced the boat.

I'm all dressed up and a place to go.

I need to find something.

I need to find my purpose. Something to
make me feel whole again.

I'm jealous of you.

You get to do something that you love.

I had that.

I just gotta find it again.

Oh, man.

It's harder than I thought it was gonna
be.

Will you go?

Can I... Can I show you something?

We're jarring 60 a day.

Aye.

All right.

That's good.

I know my business, you know. Yeah. But
I didn't expect this.

I'm going to need more bourbon.

Of course.

Of course, this, um, this is good.

So confused.

Yeah, sometimes passion pays off.

And sometimes it doesn't.

I like that.

All right. Hold on, hold on, hold on.

Hey, son.

What's up?

I need you to do something for me.

Okay. I got a lady coming over later, so
I'm gonna need you to find another

place to crash tonight.

Where am I supposed to go?

Well, you got school friends?

Come on, you don't want to be listening
to my business going on in the other

room all night, do you?

Yeah, nah, he's, uh, he's just gonna...

Stay in France.

Yeah. Hey, before you go, clean up your
mess.

I'm not rich like your mama, and nobody
here is cleaning up after you.

She wasn't rich until you took
everything.

Hey, let me call you right back, babe.

What did you say?

Nothing. You need to educate yourself,
Isaiah.

I took what I came into this marriage
with. Yeah, but you left us with

You know, I remember my mom calling and
begging people to let us sleep on their

couches or their smelly backroom floors.

There's a couple times where I had
cockroaches crawling on the blanket that

was sleeping under.

It'd be a night, a couple days, a week.

Maybe if we were lucky, we'd be in the
same place.

And so my mom made enough money to rent
a one -bedroom apartment about half the

size of this dump.

And when she finally started making some
decent money, you know what she did

with it? She didn't spend it on fancy
cars or a bigger, better place. You know

what she did with it? She... What?

She put me in school. In a really good
school because she values my education.

She values me. And what did you do
besides leave?

Wow.

She spoiled you.

Spoiled? Yeah.

Spoiled you. Look, you want to stay here
with me, Isaiah?

You need to lose your attitude.

I'm not your mama.

Yeah. And I'm not your son.

We're fully booked. It's been nine
seconds.

Kelly, New York Times bestselling
author.

This is Sawyer Leahy, head buyer from
Bliss Markets. It's a pleasure.

Nice to meet you, too. Sorry about that.
No, thanks for taking the time. You're

obviously very busy. Mr. Leahy and I
have been speaking for a few weeks now,

I will let him take it from here. Thank
you, Sophia.

We've been monitoring your success.

It's quite impressive.

Oh, wow. Thank you.

We want to talk to you about stocking
some of your products in our stores.

Most especially my wife's new favorite,
this.

Oh, all right.

Yeah, why don't you two talk, chat?

Yeah, you have sex? Sure.

Logistics.

The bourbon isn't mine.

I work with a small distillery. Okay.
You think you'd have a problem keeping

with the inventory that we're asking
for?

I don't think I could manage it on my
own.

I mean, this door, I know they handle
one, but the number of drawers they're

asking for is... Do

you mind giving me some time with these

numbers just to wrap my head around it?

Not at all. I have a big event coming
up, and it's a...

taking up a lot of my time.

I just need to work through some things
before I give you an answer, if that's

okay. Sure, absolutely, yeah.

You have my card. Call me anytime if you
have any questions.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Hey.

You're home.

Yeah. I'm home.

And I found the custody papers.

You okay?

Thank you.

For all the sacrifices that you've made
for me.

You've always taken care of me first.

Even...

if you couldn't take care of yourself.

My dad, he doesn't do that. He's never
done it.

He bails.

And... I get that.

I get that now.

I'm... I'm sorry for hurting you.

I love you so much.

I love you, too.

Oh, Isaiah.

I know.

I know I gave you a spare key. I just
didn't think you'd use it so much.

Well, your daughter left some things at
my place.

Mama, that's not why you came.

No, it's not.

So Foster's having their grand opening
tonight.

Your daughter's going, and so am I.

How about you?

I, uh, I don't want Kelly to feel
anymore uncomfortable.

This is her night. I just want her to
shine.

I miss seeing you shine.

I'm working on it, Mama.

Big Mike.

What's up, man? Ooh.

Lorna. How's my old company doing?

Oh, they're still interested.

Okay, how much?

Oh, wow.

You signing the papers, Dickie? Or do I
not have to call you back?

Well, you can say thanks, but no thanks.
I got something better going on here.

My, uh, my second act.

All right. Take it.

This is for you.

Congratulations, man.

That's all you. Here we go.

Thank you all so much for coming. And
don't forget the bourbon sauce, okay?

Thank you. You have outdone yourself,
Sophia.

I really have, haven't I?

Go me.

No, but seriously, thank you for
everything you've done for me.

Especially for being such a good friend.

I got you.

No matter what.

Oh, no. Oh,

it's so nice to see you smile again.

I was hoping tonight would bring it
back.

There's nothing like a little makeup, a
dress, and fixing your hair to take your

mind off things, right? Well, you should
do it more often.

Felicia, hi.

I'm so glad you made it.

I wanted to talk to you about a possible
collaboration. I have some ideas.

This is

Felicia, the influencer I was hearing
about.

so we were thinking about a possible
collaboration whatever content you need

right kelly is

oh

This is a basil -infused pasta in your
dad's bourbon sauce.

Oh.

What do you think?

My favorite so far. Right? 100 %
favorite. So good. Oh, this is one of

exotic ones. It's a zitti.

Stolizioso, which is Italian for
delicious. Just in case you're

uh let's see some salads and oh my gosh
this is my favorite okay it is um

it is oh my god it's brilliant uh smell
this so good

hey are you okay hey hey hi hi she

took one whiff of this and then

she bolted

It's fine, right?

It smells great to me.

Yeah, give me one second.

Is she okay?

She will be.

Okay. I'm here if you need me, okay?
Yeah.

Take care of her. Okay. I got you.

Don't take this the wrong way, but I'm
right here with you with a

new personal love.

Glad I'm getting mine over with so
young.

I can only go up from here.

How much longer?

Give it another minute.

I love Isaiah.

I really, really do. And we were safe.

At least I thought we were.

If I am.

You tell Isaiah, and then you tell your
father.

And if you are?

Do you love my dad?

I do.

I mean, I did.

But it caused a mess we didn't want.

And it's over now.

That easy?

Well, your father and I were in a no
-win situation.

Look, when you're young, you can really
fight for things.

But when you have a family and
responsibilities, you learn to

pick your battles.

So you only pick the ones you can win?

That's not what I said.

But, yeah.

And weren't you the one who worked with
that parade of?

Hungry? One, two, three.

Thank God.

Sometimes it's just too many different
sauces.

Yeah.

Let's get back to the party.

I have to tell you something.

Are you okay?

It's going to sound cold, but it's not
how I mean it.

I'm so happy, Isaiah, that you were my
first.

I'm so happy.

Man, you made me feel so safe.

And I love you so much.

I love you too.

I don't think in my whole life.

You'll be my only.

Let's go talk.

How did you know I was here?

You weren't at home. You weren't at
Grandma's. It's not NCIS.

Good point.

Can I get a fruit punch for her, please?
Yeah, sure, boss.

Boss?

For real?

How else do you think your ass is here?

You ain't grown.

Okay, boss, I got you.

I have something to tell you, Dad.

And I don't want you to freak, okay?

Isaiah and I, um, we had sex.

Nope. Can I get another one of these,
please?

I got you.

Okay.

Oh, boy.

Yeah. I always thought your mother would
be the one that would have this

conversation with you.

I have no idea what to say right now.

She always knew how to fill in the
blanks.

Oh, boy.

You know how much I loved your mother.

And, yeah, words can't explain how much
I loved her.

So when she got sick, I just threw
myself into her work, not just to pay

care, but I couldn't go home.

The idea of her not being there.

One is, You were going through a lot,
too.

And I just didn't know how to take care
of you and deal

with what I was going through.

And I just wasn't there for you, and I'm
sorry.

No, Dad, that is not true. Okay, you
would hold me and let me cry and cry so

much, and you let me yell at you and say
really horrible things to you, and you

just held me. So I know you wouldn't
love me.

I could never unlove you.

Do you have the same feelings for Miss
Pillman?

Love her like you love Mom?

The guy who loved your mom, he wanted
some stuff.

The weather, he shut down.

But I'm different now.

I love Kelly with the man I am now.

Yeah.

This is Pelman.

She still loves you.

I saw it tonight, actually. It kind of
freaked me out.

Hey.

Hey. Are you going to be home tonight?

Yeah, I'll bring you home some dinner.

Thanks.

What's that?

Oh, Bliss Markets wants to stock the
bourbon sauces.

Bliss Markets?

Are you serious? Mom, this is epic.

Yeah, a little too epic.

It's a big deal running an operation of
this size. You know, I'd lose the day

-to -day at the restaurant, and I'd have
to ask Mr. Stone to expand his

distillery. Mr. Stone just bought a bar.
He did?

Bourbon? Yeah, you should.

Give him a call.

Oh, good for him. I know, you should ask
him.

Yeah, I'll think about it.

That means you're not going to do it.

What's with the change of heart?

You and Kai made it awfully clear how
unhappy you were.

All right, baby, look, I didn't end
things with Mr. Stone just because of

You were a huge...

Part of it, but I have a lot on my plate
right now, and he's in a huge

transition, and if I said yes to this,
it would mean I would have to change my

life, and I can't ask him to change his.

Okay, well, have you thought about other
bourbons?

In every recipe, there's a special
ingredient that makes it just right.

And in this case, that's Mr.

Stone's bourbon.

I love you.

Love you, too.

You know, she wasn't just talking about
this business thing. She was talking

about them.

Yeah. You know, I'm still not 100 % sure
how I feel about them. Or

what it can do to us.

But I want my mom to have this change.

And have your dad, too.

Well, they're either going to be happy
we stay out of their business, but mad

themselves for not grabbing this chance.

Or unhappy.

We got into their business, but super
happy they've seized the opportunity.

And you're not just talking about
business?

No, I'm not.

And I want my dad happy, too.

And your mom did that for him.

Yeah, everyone's in the family.

This is Sophia.

Hi, Sophia. You are on speaker with
Isaiah Handcar.

Hi. Hi, Luke Mill. Why are you two
calling me on speaker?

And should I be scared?

Yes, you should be. And we need your
help with something.

I'm on driveway again.

Hello.

Change of plans and change of outfit.

How did you get in here?

You didn't tell me that. Well, I signed
a non -disclosure. So I'm just saying,

you know, if, um... Well, I think we...
Darius Stone.

I would like to introduce you to Sawyer
Leahy from Bliss Market.

Good to meet you, Mr. Stone.

Excited about this meeting.

Uh, what meeting?

So neither of you be mad. We didn't have
a lot of time to make this happen. Oh,

okay. We've been ambushed.

I'm sorry, Mr. Leahy.

I...

We had no idea whatever this is. Okay,
you know what? I'm just going to say

if this doesn't work out, it's all on
these two right here. Okay, but if it

does, I was involved the entire time,
and you are so very welcome.

Mrs. Stone, my mom has an incredible
business opportunity, and she's going to

throw it away, partly because it is a
lot, and it means she'll have to give up

lot of things that she loves.

But mostly because she loves you and you
are still in love with her.

Okay.

Sophia, why don't you and I go elsewhere
and let the four of them hash this out?

Great idea.

Love is everything.

Love is everything.

Um, remember when you and me were in the
restroom and, you know, we were

talking?

Well, I was thinking.

Yeah. That was the sign.

Okay. This is your sign.

And this is your sign.

Mom. Mom.

I... This business opportunity, this man
who loves you so much, you deserve

it. Okay, you deserve all of it.

I'm sorry about everything.

Wow.

I've been really kind of selfish.

Dad shocker.

I know.

I mean, I'm going away to college in a
year, and you won't have me driving you

crazy every day.

Listen, I'm glad you got your new
business, and I know you love it, Dad.

But I can't love you back.

Not like Ms. Pellman can.

She made you happy, and I want that for
you. I want you to be happy again, Dad.

Like Grandma said.

Time for you to get your shine back.

Okay?

You are so much like your mother.

You don't know this.

You... I have something else.

The market wants to carry the bourbon
sausage. Mm -hmm.

It's big.

Bigger than I want to handle.

You know, I like what I do here.

I get to be creative, and it makes me
happy.

But I need someone who knows how to run
a business on this scale.

I need you.

But if you don't want to or can't right
now because of your new business, I

won't be mad.

Okay, maybe I will, but I'll get over
it.

But if you're willing, Darius.

Would you be my partner in this?

Okay, this is what I want.

I want you to know that I

won't

breathe alone.

I love you.

You're amazing.

You're beautiful.

And you are perfect for me.

You're perfect for me.

So you better be in love with me, too.

Because I'd like to see what we can do
together in business and in life.
