Previously on "God Friended Me"...

Simon Hayes. Pleasure to meet you, man.

I'm working on something
pretty revolutionary.

Why would Henry run the God Account

through Simon's servers?

Because it's Henry's
way of making a point.

Arthur's tenure here at Harlem Episcopal

might be coming to an end,

and we think you would make
an excellent replacement.

Will you go to dinner with me?

I'd love to.

Wow.

You look great, by the way.

Thanks. You too.

It's a nice night.

Yeah.

Uh... you hungry?

I'm sorry, I have no idea
why I just asked that.

No, it's okay.

- And yeah.
- Yeah?

- Mm-hmm.
- 'Cause I was actually thinking

we could check out that tapas restaurant

you're always talking about.

I love that place.

But I did just go there with Parker.

Oh. Oh, okay.

No, not that you can't have
tapas every night of the week.

Oh, no, no, no, no. That's-that's cool.

- We can go somewhere else.
- No, no.

You know, unless you want
to go somewhere else.

Yeah, um...

Wait, the God Account
just liked Zolfo & Sons.

It's a family-owned Italian
restaurant in the Village.

So now the God Account's

trying to help us pick a restaurant?

I mean, maybe.

Unless it's actually about
a new Friend Suggestion.

Okay, well, why don't
we cross that bridge

when we come to it?

What do you say?

Italian it is.

- Hi.
- Hi. Welcome.

Do you have a reservation
with us this evening?

No, no, but is there any
chance we can get a table?

It's your lucky night. We just
had a cancellation for two.

I got this.

Welcome to Zolfo & Sons.
I'm Sonny Zolfo.

Follow me.

Thanks. Wow, great place, by the way.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

We love it. Young lady.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

This restaurant has been in my family

for three generations.

My grandfather opened those
doors in the late 1930s.

- And the menu's hardly changed.
- Wow.

When you taste the food,
you're gonna know why.

So can I start you off with something?

You want... oh.

Is this a first date?

How can you tell?

Oh, restaurant business.

You develop an eye for
these sort of things.

But I promise, you came
to the right place.

You know what, I'm gonna have the chef

make a special something
for you to start off with

on the house.

- Thank you.
- Oh, wow, thank you.

You're welcome.

This place has a great vibe.

Yeah. I mean, who know
God liked Italian?

So do you think the owner
is our Friend Suggestion?

You know, I was thinking
the exact same thing.

But you know what, let's
not worry about that.

Right. We're off the clock.

Yep.

This place looks good.

Yeah.

Anything catch your eye?

Nope, nothing yet. You?

Nope.

Hi, I'm Sophia.

Sonny told me you guys
were on a first date,

and rather than leave you alone,

I guess he thought it would be nice

to draw unwanted attention to you

by having me bring you this, so...

Well, it looks amazing.

I didn't see anything
like that on the menu.

Eh, yeah, we tend to be
old-school around here.

If it's not covered in cheese
and sauce, it's not Italian.

But I don't know, I thought
you guys might be interested

in something a little different.

So on your right,

you have caramelized
watermelon with fennel

and oregano-infused sweet vinegar.

And on your left, you
have smoked eggplant

with roasted cipollinis and fresh thyme.

All right.

Mmm.

That's amazing.

Yeah, well, I see why you're the chef.

Oh, well, the sous chef
actually, but thank you.

Sophia. Excuse me, folks.

I need you to refry the tartare
di manzo for table 12 please.

Enjoy.

Thank you.

I thought we talked
about off-menu items.

Service isn't the time for your
personal experiments, okay?

Quick. Destroy the evidence.

I just got a Friend Suggestion.

For who?

Sophia Zolfo.

Not only is she the sous chef,

she's also Sonny's daughter.

Well, now we know why the
God Account send us here.

- Synced & corrected by MementMori -
-- www.addic7ed.com --

Well, it's nice to see I'm not
the only one working late.

Yeah, just finishing up.

I just wanted to let
you know that my team

from Singular Dynamics is
gonna be here in a few weeks.

So we'll be good to go.

- Great.
- Okay.

Is there anything I can
do before they get here?

You know what? Yeah, actually.

It's something that
requires a certain degree

of discretion, however.

Okay.

So a few months ago,

someone hacked into my
server farm in Palo Alto.

We kicked them off,
but they got back in,

and they keep getting in.

Any idea who this is?

Yeah, it's Henry.

Henry Chase, you know, the
college pal I told you about.

Yeah. Any idea what he's
doing in the system?

He's not doing anything.

Really?

He's just sort of there,

just kinda lurking around.

And you want me to get rid of him?

Your coding reminds me of Henry's.

If anybody can kick him
out and keep him out,

you know, it's you.

I mean, is that something you
think you can do for me?

Sure.

Great.

Great. Thank you.

But I'm gonna need unrestricted access

to the system.

Why would you need that?

Henry's half as good as you say he is,

I'm gonna need every advantage.

Yeah, I mean, if that's
what you think it'll take,

I trust you.

- Okay.
- All right, man.

Whatever Sophia needs help with

can wait till later, right?

- Totally.
- Yeah, yeah.

It's not like she's going anywhere.

Definitely.

You know, that being said,

it'd be kind of irresponsible
of us not to at least

try and figure out what
she needs help with,

- considering we're here.
- Irresponsible, definitely.

I mean, no reason to be
selfish with our night.

No, that's not us.

Okay, there's not much going
on on her Facebook page.

Yeah, no recent posts.

Although lucky for us,
we know who her dad is.

Hmm.

Oh, excuse me.

You ready to order?

You know, we aren't sure,

but your daughter Sophia,

she made us this amazing amuse-bouche.

Oh, she did, did she?

That's my Sophia.

Let me suggest the Lasagna di Carnevale.

My grandmother brought the
recipe right over from Naples,

and I'm telling you, it's the
best lasagna in the city.

- Hey, Pop.
- Hi, sweetie.

Main rush is over, so Tony
said I could take off.

Great, great, go ahead. Thank you.

And thanks for coming
in on your day off.

Look, I was just telling
this beautiful couple

about our lasagna.

Oh, right, right, right.

His grandmother's recipe,

straight from Naples, best in the city.

Hey, don't knock tradition, all right.

It never gets old.

That's what kept these
doors open for 80 years.

Yes, I know, I know.

But I'm late to meet Angela
in Brooklyn for a drink.

- Love you.
- Love you.

Shoot, you know what.

I left my bag in the back.

You guys enjoy your date.

I'll send over your waiter.

- So do we follow her?
- Definitely.

Yes.

Hey, Miles. Good to see you.

Lester, it's good to see you too.

This is Cara Bloom.

This is Lester, he's the head
of Harlem Episcopal Church.

- Nice to meet you.
- You as well.

This is Betty Hall from the diocese.

Have you met Reverend Carver?

No, I have not,

but I've heard great
things from my father.

The feeling's certainly mutual.

- Is he here?
- No, just us.

Okay, well, you guys
have a great dinner.

Enjoy yourself.

Wait.

I thought she told her dad
she was going to Brooklyn.

Yeah, but she's not getting on the train

or calling a car.

So where is she going?

- Hello.
- Hi.

- Here, first month's rent.
- Great.

And here are the keys.

Perfect.

Well, that explains why
she lied to her dad

about where she was going.

Yeah, looks like Zolfo & Sons

is about to get some family competition.

If Sophia lied to her dad
about where she was going,

then obviously she
doesn't want to tell him

she's opening up a restaurant.

Yeah, but it's right down the
street from Zolfo & Sons.

It's gonna be kinda hard
to keep it a secret.

Yeah, true. Restaurants
fail to open all the time.

She probably doesn't want to tell him

until she absolutely has to.

You know who I could
ask about this? Parker.

She's "Catapult's" food blogger.

I mean, she knows everyone in town.

Maybe she can find out
how close Sophia is

to actually opening.

- Can I ask you a question?
- Mm-hmm.

Why are you guys here?

Because it's a bar, and
we're having a drink.

Yeah, but it's 9:00.

Aren't you guys supposed
to be on a date?

Right, well, we were,

but then we got a Friend
Suggestion for the sous chef.

Sophia. And we had to follow her.

I mean, we had no other choice.

Yeah, it would have been irresponsible.

Right, and... and selfish.

- Which is not us, so...
- Mm-hmm.

So, Al, how's your new apartment?

What? You have a new place?

Yeah.

I just moved in a few days ago.

I know Miles is gonna be heartbroken

I'm not crashing with him anymore.

I'm actually showing Dad
the place tomorrow.

You know, with Reverend
Carver around now,

Dad can actually get away
every once in a while.

Oh, speaking of, we ran
into him at dinner tonight

with Lester and a woman
from the diocese.

Really? Without Dad?

Yeah, so what?

So you don't think it's odd
that the head of the board

and a member of the
diocese are having dinner

with Dad's assistant priest without him?

I'm sure it's nothing.

Ali, I need a drink, please.

Uh, 'sup, Rakesh?

Seem a little more rattled than usual.

Simon Hayes knows that Henry Chase

is inside his server farm.

- Wait, how do you know?
- He told me.

I thought Henry was
running the God Account

- through the servers.
- Me too, but according to Simon,

he's not running anything.

Do you believe him?

I don't know.

That's what I'm gonna find out.

Simon gave me unrestricted access

to look into it, and once I find Henry

inside the system, I can trace him

and then find out if he's
running the God Account.

And if he's not?

Then it has to be Simon.

Okay, well, Rakesh,
he just promoted you.

If he finds out you've been
sneaking around his system,

he's gonna fire you.

She's right. Look, I want to know

who's behind the God Account
as much as anyone else,

- but you have to be careful.
- I will.

Wait a second, aren't you two

supposed to be out on a big date?

Hey, Dad.

- Hey.
- You ready?

All set.

Can't wait to see your new place.

I have some great decorating ideas.

Do any of them involve
decorating my shelves

with brand-new dishes?

Reverend Finer.

Lester, how are you?

Um... sure.

No, no. No problem at all.

Uh, can you tell me what it's about?

Oh, oh, okay. I'll see you then.

Bye.

Everything okay?

Fine, they just want me to come

to a board meeting tomorrow.

Did Lester say why?

Just said that a few
members of the diocese

will be joining us.

I'm sure it's just housekeeping.

Miles said he ran into
Andrew Carver last night.

- Mm-hmm.
- He was having dinner

with Lester and a member of the diocese.

Do you think something's going on?

Like what?

I don't know, but shouldn't
you be at a dinner like that?

Ali, I'm sure it was just a dinner.

And you really don't have any dishes?

So you and Miles didn't just
have an awkward first date.

You had no date at all.

No, I told you, ye got
a Friend Suggestion.

And honestly, once we
left the restaurant,

it was actually a really fun night.

You mean once you ended the date

and then went back to doing
what you guys always do,

- you had fun.
- I don't get it.

Cara and I have always had
this chemistry between us.

Why do things suddenly change

when you add the word "date" to it?

Because first dates are about
getting to know someone, right?

And you two, you're
already good friends.

It's almost like you've been on
dozens of first dates already.

Think about it, maybe things have always

felt easy with Miles
because you always had

the God Account as a buffer.

You take it away and things get awkward.

Look, Miles, I know you probably

don't want to hear this,
but there is a chance

you guys missed the last
off-ramp to romance

and are about to stay on
the Friendship Freeway.

Forever.

First off, that is a
terrible, terrible analogy.

And secondly, we haven't
missed out on anything.

It was one date, Parker.

I'm sure it will be fine next time.

Can we just move on?

You said you made some calls
about Sophia Zolfo, right?

Not just some calls. A ton of calls.

She definitely is keeping her
new restaurant on the down-low.

But she has a small
investor group lined up.

They haven't written checks yet
but that might change today.

What do you mean?

She's hosting a private lunch for them,

and if it goes well,

my guess is she's in
business soon after.

Thanks.

Well, knowing the God Account,

this isn't about helping Sophia
with an investors' lunch

or her new restaurant.

No, it's about what happens
when her father finds out.

I remember when I recorded
my first podcast.

How excited I was, but
I was also terrified.

Well, I knew that once it got out there,

I woulda had to explain to
my dad what I was doing.

So what happened?

Well, kept putting it off.

He eventually found out through
one of his parishioners.

I bet that didn't go over well.

We stopped talking for six months.

So I understand how Sophia feels.

I mean, it sucks to know
that the one person

that you want approval
from is the same person

who would never understand
what you're trying to do.

You don't understand, I need
to be able to cook here today.

I'm sorry, my hands are tied.

Excuse me, is there
anything we can do to help?

Wait, you two are from the
restaurant last night.

- Yeah, Cara.
- Miles.

What are you doing here?

Well, we actually came to see you.

I work for "Catapult," and
I heard you're trying

to open a new place.

I know you're trying to
fly under the radar,

but I was thinking I
could write an article

whenever you're ready.

I appreciate that.

Unless I can convince
him to turn my gas on,

there won't be a new restaurant.

Look, I told you, we got
a report of a gas leak.

I gotta shut it down
until we can clear it.

Hopefully it'll be back
on by the end of the day.

It took me a year to
line up these investors.

They're gonna be here in three hours,

and I have no place to cook.

Well, have you thought
about talking to your dad?

Maybe you can use his restaurant.

He doesn't understand what I want to do.

He'll never support it.

There's gotta be some way we can help.

I mean, unless you guys know of a place

that'll let me take over its kitchen,

there's nothing to do.

Actually, I may know a place.

Sophia was supposed to cook

for a group of investors this afternoon,

but the space she had fell through.

Yeah, we know it's last-minute,

but is there any way she
could host it here?

Hell yes.

- Really?
- Yes.

Us ladies in the restaurant
game gotta stick together.

Not to mention having a
bunch of rich investors

eating and drinking at Honeysuckle Rose

could only be good for business.

- Thank you so much.
- Of course.

Kitchen's that way.

All right, I'll show you.

You're the best, you know that?

I do. By the way...

- Mm-hmm?
- I was at Dad's office earlier,

and Lester called about
some meeting the diocese

wants to have with him tomorrow.

Did he say what it was about?

No, he downplayed it.

But first, Lester has
dinner with Reverend Carver

and a member of the diocese without Dad,

and now they want to hold a meeting?

Well, if Dad's not concerned,

you shouldn't be concerned either.

When Andrew Carver first got here,

I know Dad was secretly worried.

A young assistant priest
suddenly being assigned

to his church after all these years?

Come on, you do the math.

You think he's trying to replace Dad?

I don't know what I think.

Can you call Rakesh?

Have him do some digging
into Andrew Carver?

- Um...
- Look, believe me,

I want to be wrong about this.

Yeah, but just so you know, I
tried to call him earlier,

and he didn't pick up.

He's searching for Henry Chase,

so you know how he can get.

There's no telling when
he'll come up for air.

- Where are you going?
- The meeting's tomorrow.

I can't wait for Rakesh
to come up for air.

The true judgment of our
character isn't God's alone.

It's in the hearts and the
eyes of our loved ones.

- We...
- Daddy!

Hey, buddy.

I drew a picture of you.

- Wow.
- He had to come show you.

Ah, I love it.

- Andrew.
- Arthur.

You remember Caroline?

Yeah, good to see you again.

This is my son, Marcus.

I remember when my kids
used to run around here.

You know what, Marcus?

There is a balcony up there.

It was my son's favorite spot
to see the whole church from.

Hmm?

Go ahead.

- You have a wonderful family.
- Oh, thank you.

The more time we spend here,
the more it feels like home.

Glad to hear it. Oh, and by the way,

I heard that you ran into
Miles at dinner last night.

Yes, I did, it was great
to finally meet him.

And you were with Lester?

That's right, we were having dinner

- with a member of the diocese.
- Uh-huh.

He thought I should get
to know them better.

Sorry I didn't mention it.

Oh, no problem.

Listen, why don't you get
back to your sermon.

My two new pasta dishes.

Chestnut tortelli with lavender nutmeg,

and pachadi con giardiniera.

Hmm.

Oh, my... this is insanely good.

I mean, the flavors are
like perfectly balanced.

And the presentation is...

Oh, sorry. I watch a lot of "Top Chef."

Where did you learn to cook like this?

- Uh, honestly, my dad.
- Really?

I mean, it doesn't really
look like his kind of food.

No, it's not, but, um, I don't know,

I guess just growing up in restaurants

and being in the kitchen with him,

seeing his love of food and cooking,

it inspired me to become a chef.

Oh, does he know about that?

You should tell him what you're doing.

I will, I just want to
make sure the restaurant

is up and on its feet before
I have that conversation.

Sophia?

Are you here?

I think that's... that's him.

I don't understand.

How did he know I was here?

Sophia?

So it's true?

Did you really think you would
be able to hide this from me?

Dad, I'm sorry. I was gonna tell you.

Tell me what?

Tell me that you were gonna
open your own restaurant?

Or that you're turning
your back on the one

that's been in your family
for three generations?

Turning your back on me?

- Me?
- Yeah.

What about you? I asked you for a chance

to run the kitchen
before you hired Tony.

You wouldn't even give me a chance.

You said you wanted to change the menu.

You wanted to make it
something that it wasn't.

No, I wanted to show
you what I could do.

And yeah, maybe bring something
special to the restaurant.

The restaurant has always
been special, Sophia.

That's the problem. You
could never see that.

No, you never saw me as a real chef,

which is a shame because when I open up

my own spot, the rest of
the city will see that,

and maybe you will too.

It takes more than creating new dishes

to run a new restaurant, sweetie.

Look, there's pitfalls
you're just not ready for.

We done here?

'Cause I'm expecting investors soon,

and I gotta get back to work.

I guess we are.

Sophia, I'm so sorry.

- Are you okay?
- Fine.

Look, I know what it's like
to have a blowout like that

with your dad, for him not to understand

what you're trying to do,
but trust me, he will.

But you have to keep going.

And I know right now you may feel alone,

but you're not.

We're here.

He's right.

You can do this, and we're
gonna make sure of it.

Thanks.

Rakesh.

Ali, what... what are you doing here?

Sorry to invade your workspace,

but Miles told me you were in the zone

and might not be returning calls.

Yeah, I'm kind of in the thick of it.

I'm trying to track Henry
through the servers.

Okay, then I'll make it quick.

Look, I think the church might be trying

to have my dad replaced.

Yeah, is there any way you can look into

his assistant priest, Andrew Carver?

Yeah, yeah, shouldn't be a problem.

Thank you.

Wait, this can't be right.

What is it?

Henry's not running code,

but he's not just lurking around either.

I think he's trying to gain access

into a specific server in the cluster.

_

Wait a minute, I thought
you had some sort

of unrestricted access to everything.

So did I.

I mean, this has to be where Simon Hayes

parked the top-secret project.

Wait, what is Henry doing?

_

Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no.

- I need to talk to Simon.
- Okay.

Um, I'll look into your
priest as soon as I can.

No problem.

Simon.

Simon? We have a big problem.

Okay.

All right, Henry, if this
is how you want to play it,

you leave me no choice.

Let's see how you like
hypertext transfer protocol

application layer filtering
frozen system-wide,

mandatory access control to
slow down input packets.

Rakesh, what the hell are you doing?

- Not now.
- Get the hell away

from my computer, or
I'm calling security.

I don't think you want me to do that.

Henry's trying to break
into my private server.

No, I think he knows he can't break in.

- But what he can do is...
- Launch a virus.

Take down the entire system.

Yeah, and destroy your
top-secret project

right along with it.

I think he realized I was tracking him

inside the server and decided to attack.

I just need to sandbox
your private server so...

Right, right, take the
entire system offline.

Good, genius.

_

I think we need to talk.

Sophia looks like the real deal.

Yeah.

You know, after what happened
with her and her father,

I really hope this works out.

Look, that's for covering this, Parker.

Hopefully some good press will
go a long way for her place.

Yeah, no problem.

Thanks.

All right, last dish has been served.

All right, looks like you
got some happy investors.

Sophia.

Will, thank you so much for coming.

The food was excellent.

So why do I feel like
you've got bad news?

That was my assistant on the phone.

Your liquor license didn't go through.

I filed all the paperwork myself.

I mean, there must be some mistake.

If there was, it was on your end.

Will, just let me figure this out.

Whatever it is, I can fix it.

Sophia, we took a risk
when no one else would,

but a mistake like this
raises serious concerns

about your ability to run a restaurant.

You are clearly a talented chef,

but, I'm sorry, we have to pass.

This makes no sense.

I mean, I went over every
permit a dozen times,

especially the liquor license.

Al, do you know anyone on the
liquor board you could talk to?

Maybe there's something we could do.

Yeah, actually I do. I
know someone over there.

I'm happy to give them a call.

- Thank you.
- Yeah.

But even if we get
this straightened out,

I mean, I have no investors.

Well, then we'll find new ones.

I sunk everything I had
into the first month's rent

to hold the space.

If I lose it, I have to start all over.

I can't believe my father might
actually have been right.

No, no, he wasn't.

Okay, you can't give up.

You're right.

You know what, I'm gonna
go back to my restaurant,

and I'm gonna make some phone calls.

There's gotta be somebody out there

that's willing to take a chance on me.

I'll be in touch.

Thanks.

Okay, I'm gonna call my
friend on the liquor board.

What's your next step?

- _
- Maybe the God Account just sent us one.

Ladurée Macaroons in SoHo?

Well, I love that place.
Let's go check it out.

I don't understand.

Why would Henry want
to destroy your work?

You ever hear of, uh, J.J. Thomson?

No. Why?

He's credited with
discovering the electron.

His breakthrough changed
the course of history,

but it was Thomas Edison who ushered us

into the modern age of electronics,

who saw the potential to light the world

in a way that Thomson just never could.

And in this story,

you're Edison and Henry's Thomson?

Look, Henry is the brightest
mind I've ever known,

capable of changing the world,

but like most geniuses he
fell in love with creation.

Not application.

I saw the potential in
predictive analytics,

but our initial algorithms
barely scratched the surface.

In order to reach its true potential,

we needed to hire coders and
build an infrastructure.

You needed to create Singular Dynamics.

Yes, in order to ensure that
our vision was protected.

And Henry thought you were selling out.

I mean, in Henry's mind,

I was... I was somehow betraying
everything we set out to do.

You know, he vowed never
to work with me again,

and then he just disappeared.

That was ten years ago.

You know, when, um...

when Henry left, I... yeah, I just...

I didn't just lose a partner.

I lost my best friend.

So why come back to sabotage you now?

Because I'm on the verge
of changing the world

in a way that he never could,

and he can't face it.

He can't admit the fact

that I'm about to fulfill the dream

that he walked away from,

so he'd rather destroy it.

And I need you to help me
prevent that from happening.

Can I count on you?

Yeah, it's so crazy.

I was just craving
Ladurée the other day.

Oh, why does that not surprise me?

Well, not just because I love macaroons,

which I do, but I like to come here

when I'm feeling nostalgic.

For what?

Oh, in college, I studied
abroad in Paris.

It was my first time out of the country.

I was 4,000 miles away,

and yet I never felt more at home.

On Sundays, I would grab
a coffee and a macaroon

and stroll down the Champs-Élysées

to the Arc de Triomphe.

It was the best time of my life.

You know, it's a dream of mine
to move to Paris one day.

Okay, you have never told me this.

See, why couldn't we talk
about stuff like this

on our date last night?

I don't know.

What happened?

I have no idea.

I guess we just weren't being ourselves.

Yeah.

Wait.

Hey, isn't that the guy
from the gas company?

Yeah. Wait, that can't be a coincidence.

Hey, uh, excuse me, excuse me.

Do you remember us from
our friend's restaurant?

Oh, yeah, that's right.

Hey, did your friend ever find
a place to cook her lunch?

- She did.
- Oh, that's great.

I'm glad it worked out.
You know, I felt bad,

especially when I found out
that there was no gas leak.

What do you mean?

Yeah, somebody called in
claiming they smelled gas,

so we had to shut it down,
but it all checked out.

Any idea who made the call?

Nah, it was an anonymous tip.

Have a good one.

Wait, so someone makes an anonymous call

to get her gas turned off,

and then the paperwork for her
liquor license falls through?

Miles, what if that's why the
God Account send us here,

because someone's sabotaging her?

Maybe that someone feels betrayed

she's leaving the family business.

What, Sonny?

You think her own father
would do that to her?

I don't know, but if he did

and Sophia finds out,

that could end their
relationship for good.

- I was thinking about it.
- What's the name?

- Uh...
- Hey, we need to talk.

You two again?

Look, if this is about my daughter,

there's nothing to talk about.

Actually, there is.

Someone had Sophia's
liquor license pulled

so she wasn't able to
open up her restaurant.

You think I had something to do

with her license being pulled?

We did.

But then my sister talked to her
friend on the liquor board,

and it turns out it wasn't you.

It was him.

What?

Sonny, I... I don't know
what they're talking about.

How did you find out Sophia was cooking

at my sister's restaurant?

My guess is he told you.

Yeah, that's right, that's right.

Tony?

Okay, fine, I know the woman
she signed a lease with,

and when I found out, I had
her liquor license held up.

Why the hell did you do that?

You don't get it, Sonny. You never have.

- Don't get what?
- How talented she is.

You just see her as your little girl,

but if her restaurant turns
out half as good as she is,

it'll cripple us.

I wasn't gonna just sit
back and let it happen.

It was business. It wasn't personal.

It wasn't personal? Wasn't personal?

This business has always been personal.

It's about my family.

And I just turned my back on her.

Look, this isn't gonna happen again.

- Tony, you're fired.
- Sonny...

We're done here.

I have to find my daughter.

I have to figure out a
way to make this right.

Actually, I think we can help with that.

Rakesh, how'd things go with Simon?

Fine, but listen,

finally got to dig into
Andrew Carver for you.

Did you find anything?

Uh, you could say that, yeah.

I found an email from the
board of Harlem Episcopal

to the New York Diocese,
and it turns out

Andrew Carver wasn't
assigned to the church

like they told your dad.

The board requested him.

They lied.

I think you were right, Ali. Um...

They're replacing your dad.

I can't believe Tony would
sabotage me like that.

He told your dad that he had to.

That he knew how talented you were,

even if Sonny couldn't see it.

He said that?

He did. Right before your dad fired him.

Well, it's too bad the
damage is done, right?

Then undo it.

My sister's friend on the liquor board

is putting your license
through as we speak.

That's amazing.

But, I mean, for the past 24 hours,

I've been on the phone begging
everyone I know to invest,

and no one will take a chance on me.

Actually, there is one person.

Dad?

Hello, sweetheart.

I thought I'd come down and
take a look at your new place.

Yeah, well, not for much longer.

I know that.

So then what are you doing here?

Well, remember when you were growing up,

we had that little stepladder

in the kitchen of the restaurant.

You'd use it to get to the pasta maker

'cause you used to like to
crank the roller, remember?

Yeah, and you used to quiz me

on the thickness of the different pastas

as you pushed the dough through.

That's right.

Well, I just realized that, um,

I never let you off that little ladder,

and I am so, so sorry

that I couldn't see you
for the amazing chef

that you truly are, and I know...

I know I'm stuck in the past,

but that's why we have kids.

So they... they pull us into the future.

So what do you say?

Look, Dad, I do not want to
be a chef at Zolfo & Sons.

I'm sorry, that is...

it's just not me.

I know that.

That's why I'm selling the restaurant.

- What?
- Don't worry, your mother's been

begging me to retire anyway.

What are you talking about?

I want you to use the money
to open your own place.

Think of me as your angel investor.

I can't believe you did that.

Dad, that restaurant
means everything to you.

No, sweetie, no.

You are everything to me.

I just needed a good kick in
the ass to remember that.

I love you.

Hey, hey, you two.

We're having a celebration tomorrow.

I expect you're both
gonna be there, okay?

Absolutely.

Thank you both for everything.

Hey. Hey, Ali, what's up?

I'm so sorry I didn't
listen to you earlier.

It's okay, all that
matters is we tell Dad

before he's blindsided.

Ali, Miles,

can I help you?

Is something wrong?

We know you're trying to take
Harlem Episcopal from our dad.

I don't know what you heard, but
this is not what you think.

Okay, then explain it to us.

Miles,

Ali, what are you doing here?

I think you need to ask
Reverend Carver about that.

Andrew?

I haven't been totally honest

about my reasons for being here.

Lester and the board requested
that I come to Harlem Episcopal

to... replace you as head priest.

I'm, uh...

I'm being pushed out, is that it?

No, of course not.

The diocese holds you
in the highest regard.

I don't understand.

Arthur, they're nominating you

to become Bishop of New York.

Whoa, so... so that's what
the board meeting's about?

Yes, discussing the next steps

in your father's transition.

Wait, Dad, that is great.

I don't know what to say.

I mean, why all the intrigue?

Why not just tell me the
truth from the beginning?

The board knows how deeply you care

about Harlem Episcopal,
that you'd be unwilling

to leave it in someone else's hands

unless you felt comfortable
with that person.

And that's why you're here,

gave me the chance to get to know you.

And hopefully show you that this church,

your church, is in good hands

if you decide to move on.

I'm sorry you had to find out like this,

but your children are obviously
very protective of you.

Damn straight, we are.

Get over here, Dad.

Ohh.

It's easy to think of new beginnings

as something that just happens
when the time is right.

Life's way of wiping the slate clean

to allow us to change course.

But the truth is, new
beginnings are never easy.

They usually remind us
of where we've been

as much as where we're headed,

what we have to sacrifice
and leave behind

if we choose to continue on.

Hey, I just wanted to let you know

that your servers are back online.

You won't have to worry about
Henry poking around anymore.

Okay. Thank you, man.

Yeah.

I think we can officially take
Henry Chase off the table.

Simon Hayes is our main suspect now.

So you really think the
top-secret project

he's been working on is the God Account?

What else could it be?

Well, we could just wait
for his team to get here,

hope they show you the
account when he's ready.

No, I'm not sure he's going to,

not unless we force his hand.

Well, how do we force it?

You've said it from
the beginning, Miles.

You weren't chosen at random.

Just need to find the
connection between you

and Simon Hayes.

And is there a point in the journey

where it's simply too
late to change course

even if you wanted to?

_

Hey, what are you up to?

Just sitting here. You?

Actually, I could use some advice.

What's on your mind?

- It's about me and Cara.
- Mm-hmm.

We have always had this great chemistry,

but when we went on a
date, it just vanished.

- Uh-huh.
- And I'm not sure why.

Well, you know, in my experience,

there's a difference between
chemistry and spark.

Chemistry is that easy feeling
you have with someone

that grows over time.

Spark...

Spark you just have.

It takes over on its own.

And if it doesn't?

Then it never will.

In the end, maybe
trying to change course

is more about realizing
you never needed to,

and that's okay.

I am so glad everything
worked out for Sophia.

Yeah, me too.

I mean, after her investors left,

I thought she might
have missed her window.

Hey, do you think that's
what happened to us?

Like we missed our window?

I don't know, maybe, but...

you know, if we did, I'm okay with it.

You are?

Well...

I just mean having you
come into my life,

having you as a friend,

it's like one of the best things

that's ever happened to me.

I wouldn't want to change any of it.

Neither would I.

So...

friends?

Friends.

- Hey.
- Hey.

So glad you guys could make it.

Oh, my God, of course.
We would not miss this.

- You ready to make your mark?
- Absolutely.

Excuse me, please.

Can I have your attention for a second?

Thank you, thank you.

First of all, thank you all for coming.

And on behalf of the Zolfo family,

I would like to invite you
to our newest venture,

and it's gonna be open
in about six months,

and it's gonna be an amazing
Italian restaurant,

and I know the whole town's
gonna be buzzing about it.

And it's going to be called Sophia's.

Cheers.

Please, everybody stand up, stand up.

As you know, we have this
tradition here at Zolfo & Sons

that when Dean plays
through those speakers,

you give a little kiss to
the person you came with

or a big one.

Here we go.

You have to kiss or it's bad luck.
