Original subtitles

- Last time on "Jupiter Jones."

- So he escaped during medical leave.

He couldn't have masterminded this by himself.

- This guy is out for blood.

- I almost got my money right.

- Look, you were supposed to get her to pay it all, man.

What happened?

- You're taking this shit too far.

- Hey, they fucked with my family, bruh.

- Can I help you?

- Looky here.

- I told her to never come here again.

- Yeah, but she's your mother.

- She's not my mother.

- Thank you.

- Thank you.

Appreciate it.

You have been so amazing.

Two cases down, one to go.

- Now, the last one was a little tough.

I had to make sweet eyes to that male juror

to get him to come over to our side.

- He couldn't stop looking at your ass.

That shit was so funny.

- It's so crazy.

After all the years of law school, all of the psychology,

the jury selection, the legal arguments,

it came down to my squat game at the end.

- That's the one thing about men.

We can be primitive at times.

- Spoken from the gods.

- Whoa, whoa, wait.

Where are you going?

Party's just getting started.

- Come on, Brodie, we talked about this.

We have to keep this, you know, what it is.

I'm your lawyer.

- I know.

I get it, but, look, we are rolling.

We beat out two murder cases.

We are winning, all right?

We scaring these other bitches, and we're doing it together.

- Now, you know the last thing we need to be doing when

we're on a winning streak is to forget

what it feels like to lose.

Mm-mm. Mm-mm.

We got to stay focused.

That means I need to be at home prepping your next case,

not getting hammered with you.

- You're my good luck charm.

When I'm with you, I can't lose.

- I wish that were true.

- It is.

- In all of your edges, even the rough ones,

there's a purity.

I mean, you do what you do, right or wrong, I can't judge.

But you do live by a code, and I can see that.

- And I see you, too...

your energy, your vibe, your aura

is everything a primitive man needs to evolve, to grow.

- Okay, okay, all right.

We're on a high, aren't we?

Slow down.

- Cloud nine, but let's not come down.

Not right now.

I

- Don't know.

I... I've never done this before.

I mean, I have been stressed.

And I see you.

- Never doesn't mean never.

- Mm-mm.

I don't want to ruin things, okay?

I, too, live by a code.

- Well, you know me.

I break every rule.

I push things.

- You got one chance to dance.

Don't mess this up.

And don't waste my time.

- I did my push-ups.

- Hmm.

We'll see.

- Oh, god.

- Well?

You gonna make me change my mind.

- Oh.

- Another nightmare?

- Something like that.

♪ Go solo ♪

♪ You can make me hollow ♪

♪ In a scheme what a vibe ♪

♪ I don't want to lie low ♪

- It's even worse when a nightmare comes from real life.

Things you wish you could forget.

- I guess we all have those nightmares, then.

- Some of us are being chased by bigger monsters than

others, though.

- Look, Jupiter, I'm here for you, okay?

Just open up.

You can... you can talk to me.

I know the past was rough, but it's over now, okay?

I'm here now.

Let me be there for you.

- I wish it were that easy.

You snap your fingers, and you just become my Prince Charming.

The thing you don't understand is in those fairy tales,

the damsel in distress, that young girl

was always ready, like, so ready for her Prince Charming.

But I'm no damsel in distress, and I'm not ready.

- You're in denial.

You know, you show the world this strong facade,

this powerful, bad bitch exterior,

but I know you're hurting.

You're broken, like a fucking angry pit

bull just trapped in a corner.

But I can help you.

I can help fix you.

- Have you ever heard of the Japanese art of kintsugi?

- Kintsugi?

- It's golden repair.

They take pottery, like broken, ugly pottery,

and they mend it together with this lacquer.

Then they dust it with, like, gold or platinum or silver.

And they treat it being broken as a part of its history.

But now it's mended together more beautiful than ever.

But the glue that holds it together is toxic.

- What are you saying?

- I don't need you to fix me.

I was broken, but I mended myself back together

more beautiful than ever.

It was an inside job.

- What are you keeping me around for?

Hmm?

What am I here for?

- I think maybe you should ask yourself, why are you staying?

- Do you even want me here?

- I want you to take your track shoes off and be patient.

I'm doing my best.

I got fight training.

I'll talk to you later.

- That's it.

- There you go, Ju.

Don't drop that right hand.

There you go.

There you go.

Just like that.

There you go.

- Who else you got for me, Coach?

- Nobody.

You done broke two girl ribs already.

Shoot.

- I gotta let go of this stress somehow.

- Shh, you're stressing me out!

- All right, same time next week?

- Yeah.

- All right.

- Shh.

- Is she dead?

Is she fucking dead?

- Yes.

Yes, I'm afraid so.

- Oh, there you are.

I knew I could find you here.

I've been down here three times this week.

I guess the third time's the charm.

- What do you want?

- Oh, come on now, baby girl.

I came a long way.

- I don't have time for this.

- Jupiter Marie Jones, get back here.

Ooh, this girl.

- Boss lady, I assume you have seen

the transfer of cryptocurrency to our friend JP.

That whole Baby Blaze thing is over.

Now our princess can go back to keeping

her fallacious activities under wraps on her way to the Oscars.

- Yes, I got the news alert.

So overdose, huh?

So he's really gone?

- That industry is filled with unspeakable tragedy.

- But this wasn't us, right?

We wanted JP to talk some sense into him.

We didn't ask him to hurt Blaze, did we?

- No.

And if it ever was, I will protect you.

Rappers overdose.

Occupational risk.

- I don't work like this.

- Of course, we don't.

- He was pure trash.

- His grandmother was a sweetheart.

- Look at you.

It's cuffing season, huh?

- Mm-hmm.

She say she can whip up a mean steak and potatoes.

- I bet she did.

Hmm.

- What?

Wow.

She is already here.

- Well, you're early, Principal Reagan.

- You know what is rare, it is, is that a kindergarten

teacher will make it to school every morning

before the principal.

And I left 30 minutes early on purpose today.

And here you are.

You are one of a kind, young lady.

- Well, thank you.

- One of a kind.

- But today is our hero day.

- Ah.

- And we're picking people who inspire us to be better.

So my pick was Maya Angelou.

- I love her. - Mm-hmm.

- Yes.

- But it was really tough between her,

Michelle, or Oprah.

- Naturally.

- But her words, they speak to me.

And the kids, oh, they're gonna be

so excited because I baked some fresh chocolate chip cookies.

- They'll be bouncing off the wall.

- Would you like one?

- Well, I'll try a little piece of one.

- Okay.

- Mhm.

I'm not just saying this.

It's sweet.

And I taste a little hint of butter.

Almost like grandma.

- Well, thank you.

But brown butter, that's my secret.

- But unfortunately, the news I bring

today is not gonna be so sweet.

Hmm.

That is a good cookie.

- Well, spit it out, Reagan.

- Well, as you know, several members on the board of Los

Angeles school district were up for re-election, and there

have been some concerns.

- Concerns about what?

- Well, the fact that in your previous law profession,

you represented... what did they say?

Some very nefarious characters, one

being a Mr. Cameran Sanders, who, right now, is in jail

for murder, along with another one

of your unsavory individuals.

The board feels they would fodder attacks

from their opponents if we allow you to continue to teach

this district's youngest generation

after being in the company of such vile human beings.

- But isn't legal counsel defense

and a right for all Americans?

Why am I being penalized for working in a just trade?

- Now, you have a point.

You have a point.

We're gonna have to let you go, effective immediately.

Now, you can appeal to the union.

That is your right.

However, I fear you will fail.

It's over.

- It...

Isn't it hard for us already?

I mean, seriously.

I love these kids.

I put my heart and soul into these kids.

- No, no.

I see.

- I know their likes, their... their favorite colors,

their dreams.

- Yeah.

- I know what their parents hope for them.

I know everything.

Please, please, don't take this away from me.

I've never asked anyone anything like this before.

- Yeah.

- But this is my whole world.

Please, Reagan, I...

I need this.

- Sometimes, the sins of our past

will interfere with the steps of our future.

That's just the way it is.

- Now, who is this?

- Ah, this... please meet Mr. Sawyer Stevens.

Now, he's with the outside HR firm that's

been contracted by the board to go over your severance package.

Now, we assure you it will be a soft landing.

And no, this is not the way things are traditionally done.

However, this is a... a unique case

and will be treated as such.

- Fuck you.

- Sawyer, I was waiting for them to make

you come back to the office.

You ain't special.

- Orletha, so good to see you again.

- We have been back here for a month.

Where the hell have you been?

And why did they let you stay at home?

I've been working on all these damn files.

What's up with you?

- They moved me up to the claims division.

Trust me, I... I had a workload.

- I don't believe it.

You know what?

They are not about to slave drive me.

Beyoncé said, release your job.

Well, you know what?

I'm thinking about listening to the queen.

And do you know that they've been talking about cutting

our Christmas bonus this year?

They really want one.

- Look, Orletha, it's great chatting with you,

but I'd like to finish up my stuff so I can act like

I'm working and clicking away at my keys while I

finish up on "The Housewives."

Let me be.

- Okay.

Well, it looks like you've been working

out since you've been gone.

- I have been doing some stuff at the gym, yes.

- Well, I have a new tat on my back if you want to see.

- Yeah, I can see it from here.

- See, it's a tramp stamp over another tramp stamp.

- Thank you, Orletha.

That's very kind.

- It's cute.

You can kiss it if you want to.

- Probably won't do that, but...

- I'm just saying, it's there for you

if you want to peek a boo.

- I'm just gonna get back to...

- It's new.

- Well, good luck.

- I can only...

- Don't you say a word to me.

- Look, I'm not the enemy.

I'm just here to help.

I don't like him either.

Come on, let's talk.

Yeah?

- I definitely don't like how that turned out.

We have to button these things up, guys.

That cannot happen again.

- She's been calling a burner phone all day.

It's Summer.

She is a VIP.

- What?

- Jupiter, I've called you 10 times back to back.

Where the fuck are you?

- Child, I told you the last time I did a job for you,

it was on the house, and to never contact me again.

I no longer deal with your family.

- Look, I'm not my father.

I will pay you on time.

I need you to help me fix this.

- Is it that bad?

How bad is it?

- Something only you can handle.

- This is a secure line.

Are you on a secure line?

- I don't know.

- Don't say anything else.

Is it bad enough that I need to be there in person?

- Yes.

- Summer, Summer.

Okay.

Okay.

Take out your computer and wire my retainer fee now.

I need you to set me up a plane at Van Nuys in an hour.

Well, traffic, so make that two hours.

And tell the prime minister to set

it up to where I do not have to have my passport stamped.

And I'm also gonna need two bottles of champagne

on my plane. You got it?

- Jupiter, whatever you need.

Can you just get here, please?

- Just stay put till I get there, Summer.

Chelsea, clear my schedule.

Headed to the Caribbean.

Looks like our little casino heiress

has gotten into a bit of trouble.

- Why don't I get these sweet gigs?

I need me a Caribbean tan.

- I need you to erase this call log,

but wait for me to reach out to you.

And make sure our comms are working

across international lines.

Now, Brodie won't be able to track us there,

but I need you to be safe.

You know where the weapons are in the office.

You got it?

- Got it, boss.

On a sexier note, you want me to pack your swimsuit?

- You know, I have one at home.

I think I'll swing by and get it.

- Mm-hmm.

I know that's right.

- Thank you.

Ready?

- I will follow you to the ends of the earth.

- Well, let's go, superhero.

- May I help you?

- Yeah.

Let me get three deluxe cheeseburgers, a side of fries,

and, yeah, two milkshakes.

We never got to eat like this in the joint.

I've been fantasizing about this shit for years.

- Unfortunately, our milkshake machine is broken.

- Broken?

Well, go fix it, bitch.

- Now, I know you ain't about to come up in here

and disrespect me on my job.

- Watch your fucking attitude, talking to me like that.

I said go fix it.

Go fucking fix it.

Fuck.

Fuck!

- Freeze.

I need back up.

Shotgun.

Shotgun.

Officer needs assistance.

North Street warehouse.

I'm going in.

Coming in hot.

- Oh, shit.

Oh, what the hell?

Oh, my god.

Oh, Sheila, I told you to keep your eyes open.

- Where's my backup?

- Damn, I really wanted those milkshakes.

- Shots fired.

Officer down.

I repeat, officer down.

- Hey, bae.

Wow, you look beautiful.

Long day.

Yeah, they want us back in the office now,

which sucks, but look at you.

I'm still taking you to dinner, like we talked about.

- Yeah, about that.

I have to go to the Bahamas.

It's a work thing.

- The Bahamas.

A work thing, really?

- We agreed, Sawyer, boundaries.

- Boundaries?

Yeah, we... we said boundaries, not walls.

What you have is like a fucking Great Wall of China.

- Now, be a man about it, Sawyer.

- Be a man?

Yo, you fuck me like a fucking porn star.

And then some nights, you don't even look at me.

It's like I only see glimpses of the real you.

You said your mom was distant and cruel.

Honestly, it feels like you're picking up many of her traits.

- Well, I'm gonna need you to stay at the hotel

while I'm gone.

- A hotel?

What are you... wait, am I in trouble?

Yeah, what kind of bullshit you got me caught up in, JuJu?

Yo, what's going on?

Tell me right now.

I deserve to know.

- A client... well, a former client,

he just escaped from prison.

He is extremely dangerous.

And he has promised to kill me.

And I don't want anything to happen to you.

- What have I got to do with any of this?

- Well, he's resourceful.

He's very cunning.

He could track you here.

And he will not hesitate to torture you or to harm you

just to get to me.

- Why would one of your former clients want to kill you?

- I made a mistake the one time that I

promised that I would protect him, that I would save him.

But in the end, I failed him.

- Nah.

No, no, no, no, there's got to be more than that.

No, there's more to it than that, huh?

Were you in a relationship with him?

Hmm?

Did you fuck him?

- What on earth would that have to do with anything?

- JuJu, did you... did you fuck him?

- Yes.

Yes, I did.

You happy now?

You got your answer.

Now, I'm gonna need you to pack your shit

and head over to the Waldorf and stay

there until you hear from me.

There, you will be safe.

Now, I gotta go.

I'll text you.

- I don't like to fly on these things.

- Didn't you used to jump out of planes in the army in Kenya?

- But that doesn't mean that I have to like it.

I prefer to have my feet firmly on earth,

where they are meant to be.

- Well, you better pour yourself

a little taste because it's gonna be a long flight.

Want a Xanny?

- Thanks for your offer.

- Mm-hmm.

- I prefer to keep my body off of drugs.

- Oh, I couldn't function without it

on these long flights.

Oh.

I need to take this.

- I came to bring you the files from the Harris doc.

You know, you used to get drunk like this

when we were together, when you were depressed.

It's what broke us.

Come on, let me help you to your room.

Come on.

- What up, Chelsea?

- Okay, ma'am, what we got is our friend, Summer Sanders.

She inherited a part of a Caribbean paradise casino

empire from none other than her mommy, Alexis, a prostitute who

scored big by taking BBC from billionaire Cameran Sanders,

your favorite former client.

- We don't speak that name around here.

Get to the point.

- The call is encrypted, so I'll go ahead and fill you in.

She found herself in bed with the prime minister,

who she's been indulging for about a year now.

He's 26 years her senior, but I digress.

They both found themselves in bed with a dead Asian girl.

- What do we have on the girl?

- I tapped our friends at the Border Patrol,

and apparently, she's a migrant worker from Cambodia.

She was hired to work in the kitchen at the casino,

but was found servicing local tourists at the massage parlor

until she was hired at the casino.

Doesn't really sound like she was hired to wash dishes.

- Oh, this is horrific.

Does the girl have family?

- Nothing.

Just a great grandmother back in the city of Krong

Battambang in her homeland.

Everyone else is dead.

Looks like she was sending money,

Western Unions, back monthly.

- Okay, I don't do this kind of work.

I... I can't take this job.

- Yeah, I explained that to Summer,

but she told me that the girl was over 25, she was a pro,

and that she was well taken care of.

She also said that it was purely an accident.

She wasn't murdered.

She wants to make it right.

- And are we sure that she was a pro?

- Unless she was giving out some awesome massages

without a license, yeah, I would say yes.

- Has the money hit the account?

- Every cent.

- All right.

I mean, I'm already on the flight, so what the hell?

- I figured you'd say that.

Everything's set for when you land.

- All right, thanks.

- Come on, I got you.

Oof.

You know, when you're not drinking,

you are an amazing man.

I think you still have it in you.

What? What?

- Now, come on.

- Come on, what?

I still think that you have that man in you.

I'm gonna have to spin the block.

- No, no, no.

- What?

- No, look, Orletha, Orletha, look, we can't... you're not

supposed to be here.

Oh, shit.

- Just lie down.

- Pull it out.

- No, no.

You know my pullout game is weak.

Don't.

Don't.
