What the hell
did I just walk in on?

That? Come on, that's...
that's just Dani being Dani.

[scoffs] Funny,
because it looked like Dani

was about to do her best
Rick James.

And unless you want me
to finish what she started,

you better start explaining.

She barged in here.

What did you say
to make her want

to get all up on you, Bill?

Oh, now, Hayley,
you know how it is with Dani.

A simple "good morning"
is enough to set her off.

You know how impulsive she is.

And that turns you on,
doesn't it?

And just when I thought
we were finally having a moment,

Kat tells me
that we're still not sisters.

That's crazy after
everything you've been through.

But hey, at least
she's not still on the warpath.

True.

I guess that means
the war is finally over.

Honestly, I don't mind
new and improved Kat,

especially considering
how she saved my girl's life.

Okay, let's not
gas her up too much, okay?

My liver might hear you
and reject me out of jealousy.

Then let's keep that
from happening.

Yeah.

LESLIE:
Aw.

There is my little survivor.

Perfect timing, Leslie.

I got to meet one
of my students.

[sighs]
But maybe I should cancel.

No, don't you dare.
I am here to take care of her.

And I will be here until
they physically remove me.

Mama, I don't need a babysitter,
okay?

Don't you have some schemes
to get back to?

[scoffs]
Those days are long gone.

Okay, so hell has frozen over.

Oh, that must be Kat's part
of the liver talking.

In case you haven't heard,

your near-death experience
changed me.

So you got a liver transplant,

and I got
a personality transplant.

Your mama is turning over
a new gold leaf.

Can't wait to see how long
that lasts.

Oh, it will last.

Up close and in HD,

because Mama is moving in
with her baby girl.

Insane-- you donated
a literal piece of yourself

to the girl who broke up
your parents' marriage.

I still can't stand her, okay?

She's smug, messy

and a walking reminder
of everything my family lost.

But...

doesn't mean I wanted her
to die.

♪ ♪

I have a proposition for you.

Business or pleasure?

Well, if done correctly,
they could be the same thing.

How about I whisk you away
for a few days?

We can finally
take that trip to Napa.

I thought that would remain
a fantasy we just joked about.

No, I can call the pilot,
have him prep the jet.

We can be wheels up
in a couple of hours.

As in today?

You have something stopping you?

Not that I can think of.

Leaving all the DMV drama behind
to be with you...

sounds like heaven.

Um...

Little cream with your coffee?

How else am I supposed to get
my afternoon fix?

Speaking of cravings,

I was thinking about
sneaking off to get some lunch.

Would you like to join me?

I wish I could.
I have a PT appointment.

From what I hear,
the patient is quite stubborn

and a little opinionated.

Huh, sounds like
you got your hands full.

Yeah, but her mother is
sexy as hell.

-Kial!
-I'm being honest.

The only reason I took on
her daughter

was to rack up
some brownie points.

Your patient is Kat.

Well, then consider
your brownie points awarded.

Mm, good,
'cause I plan on collecting.

By all means.

-Hey.
-Hey.

It is quesadilla day
in the cafeteria.

Ooh, not for me.

I'm afraid I have
a physical therapy session.

With Eva?
I thought that was earlier.

It was,
until Leslie materialized.

-You postponed?
-I absolutely did.

I don't have the time
or the patience

to deal with
her foolishness today.

Leslie's running around
claiming she's a changed woman.

Please!
Once a trifling heifer, always--

Ah, say less.

I get it, but listen, uh,

try to carve out an evening.

Hmm, what for?

You were a rock star
after the tornado,

holding this hospital together,

helping my daughters,
helping me.

So, I've arranged
a little dinner.

Well, maybe not so little.

My article and the congrats note
from my editor.

Why are these out?

[sighs]
My cap for graduation.

You went through my closet?

For a good reason.

What did I walk in on?

Samantha was just about
to enlighten us. Hi.

I was about to film some content
with my Platinum Deb sash,

and then it hit me
how selfish that was,

since we've all been
out here winning.

My Platinum Deb sash.

Dad's article
with a note from the editor.

"Prints sold out
and page views broke records."

Go, Dad.

Pop's headline
about winning the primary.

And Tyrell's graduation.

Our table does
look like a trophy case.

We have been a bunch
of busybodies, that's for sure.

You know what?

Shonda, cancel the strategy
Zoom for tonight.

I will be spending the evening
with the fam.

You for real, Pop?

Well, my perceptive daughter
made an astute point.

You know what?
I could also use a break.

My eyes feel like
they're going to bleed.

Well, then it's settled.
How do we celebrate?

-You're asking us?
-MARTIN: Sure.

Whatever you guys come up with,
we're game.

Oh, I heard that Beyoncé is
having a pop-up concert tonight.

Wait, in D.C.?

Feel like I would've heard
about this from work.

No, Miami,
but it's a plane ride away.

If we're flying,
we can hit the Bahamas.

Jessica and I could use
some beach time.

I don't think
we thought this through.

No, you did not.

-First class.
-Yes.

-[with French accent]: Paris.
-Paris.

-Paris.Ooh.
-Ooh.

-[giggling]
-I like that.

All right, where did you two
land on this epic celebration?

And if it involves ropes
or helmets,

your papa and I might need
to take it slow.

We decided on...

[drumming table]

...pizza.

Pizza?

Yeah, and game night,
here at home.

We were mentally preparing
for something

a bit more extravagant,

where we could at least
get our dance on.

Are you sure about this?

Yep, ordering the pizza now.

I'll get the dominoes.

Have our kids become boring?

It appears so.

I was not turned on by Dani.

In fact, I was turned off.

That's why everything
got so heated.

Please!

You used to look at me like that

back when you couldn't
keep your hands off me.

Well, I mean, I still can't.

And is that because
I do the things Dani used to?

You know, here I thought
the games we play

were originals, but no.

Turns out the old dog
doesn't have any new tricks.

Oh, come on, that's not fair.

I've lived more life than you.

-Oh, okay.
-There's things that I've--

There's not much I haven't done.

Just because you're seasoned

doesn't mean
you're more experienced.

Like, has your memory
gotten foggy,

or did you forget
our truncated honeymoon, Bill?

Oh, you mean
when you did that thing

you promised to do
on our wedding night?

Yeah, bet Dani never did that.

It definitely was a first.

Just like that impromptu
limousine loving.

Good. I want more of those.

Okay, well, Caroline has
the limousine service's number--

Experiences, Bill.

Ones you haven't shared
with Dani or anyone else.

Okay, well, Hayley, if that's
all you need to satisfy you,

I'll be more than happy
to fulfill your request, okay?

If it were me
and someone I hated

-with every fiber of my being...
-Like Joey?

I'd donate my organs to science

before he'd get
his grubby paws on them.

Yikes, tell me
how you really feel.

It's not fair.

My dad was a good man.

He made a difference
in people's lives.

Meanwhile, Joey is this shady,
snake-charming con artist.

You know I get
where you're coming from.

My whole world was
knocked off its axis

by that talking receipt
of a mistake my dad made.

My intuition warned me from
the moment she opened her mouth,

but what it didn't tell me
was her origin story.

I don't follow.

Uh, I had a dream,
vision, whatever.

It showed me
what Eva lived through.

And now I suppose
I don't hate her.

As much.

I see you, That's So Katherine.
You've gone soft.

No.

I gained perspective.

Well, don't you dare
spin this into a lecture

about me giving Joey a chance.

I thought you were on my side.

I am.

But regardless of
whether you hate him or not,

do you really think it's smart
to antagonize that man?

I'm not scared of him.

Look,

Joey's never screwed me over.

But my whole family
keeps him at arm's length,

and reputations tend to
be earned, so just be careful.

Joey's obsessed with staying
in my mother's good graces.

Him doing something to me,

someone she loved,
would only push her away.

Like I said,
I'm not scared of him.

Found it.

A cozy boutique inn.

That's a far cry from high-end.
Are you sure?

For once, I don't need luxury.

We could even bike
to some of these wineries.

Eat, sleep and drink wine
on a loop.

Leaving something off
your to-do list, aren't you?

Eat, make love to Joey.

Sleep, make love to Joey.

Drink wine, make love to Joey.

And repeat.

Now, that's an itinerary
I can follow.

Thank you.

I have no idea why it spiked.

I'm sorry, Mama,
but I am not in the market

for a roommate, okay?

Especially one that's going
to be all up in my business.

What would make you
even say that?

You remember we were all up
in each other's grills before.

Look, you hogged the bathroom

every single morning,
we fought over the remote,

and you stunk up the place

when you went
on that cabbage diet.

Nah, don't remember that, but...

I do remember us binging
on old episodes of The Parkers

and laughing
at that silly Mo'Nique

for throwing herself
at the professor.

Oh, and us cooking dinner

and having lots and lots
of girl talks. Yeah.

That's because your memory's
acting real cute today.

Okay? What you should remember
is The Bowman.

Fresh linens, room service,
a bed that doesn't squeak.

Why would you want
to abandon all that

to cram into my shoebox
of an apartment?

For you, Eva.

Everything I do is for you.

Why are you suddenly
taking on PT shifts?

There's no secret mission.

Shanice says she needed
someone with experience,

and I was free.

Hmm, you did do wonders
to my neck.

Although that does feel
like a lifetime ago.

[chuckles]
Well, next time

you need another session,
just say the word.

My office is around the corner.

Anytime but now. Duty calls.

SHANICE:
So, run that by me again.

-A seven-course meal.
-Mm-hmm.

-On a yacht.
-A private yacht.

Well, except for
the string quartet

that may or may not show up
to serenade you.

-Now, that is romantic.
-Mm-hmm.

But don't you think it's
just a little extravagant?

So what? You deserve it.

I wouldn't even know
what to wear.

Bikini works for me.

Boy, please.

Stop.

Whatever you wear,
you're going to look beautiful.

So beautiful
that I plan to take you

back to the hotel afterward

to keep the appreciation going.

Oh, now I know exactly
what to wear for that.

Or not to wear.

Mm.

Are you even talking
to your mom right now?

I called her after the tornado

to make sure she wasn't
floating down the Potomac.

It was nice, our first
real conversation in forever.

Until he made an appearance.

-He got on the phone?
-No.

But I heard him
in the background

telling Mom her bath was ready.

-Ew!
-Exactly.

I hung up immediately,

and I haven't called
or texted since.

Well, I didn't like my mom's
choices post-divorce, either.

And don't even get me started
on my dad's former side piece.

But his current girlfriend
is a major upgrade.

Lucky you.

Well, my point is it takes time.

And several glasses of rosé.

But, eventually, I accepted
that this is the new normal.

There's nothing normal about it.

Joey Armstrong is not my father,

and he's definitely not someone

I want my mom taking
bubble baths with.

Okay, but that doesn't mean
you should punish her.

She's your mom.
You'll never get this time back.

Do you really want to look back
on your life and realize

that you stayed mad
longer than you stayed close?

[door opens]

Good afternoon, ladies.

I'm sorry to interrupt.
It's PT time.

-Text me later.
-All right.

You ready to start?

Mm, one question first.

Lay it on me.

What's the update
on you and my mom?

You don't have to do this,
Mama, okay? I'm fine.

Unless you have
some other hidden agenda.

I didn't want to cause you any
stress in your fragile state.

But my shouse
was hit by the tornado.

Damn, that's a bummer.

Well, I'm sorry, Mama.

Yeah, so is my social life.

And hotel living is depressing.

Well, isn't Peaches
still at the rehab center?

Why don't you just move into
her empty apartment upstairs?

Problem solved.

Yeah, but it's not empty
anymore.

I mean, any smart landlord
would sublet.

That's what I did.

I mean,
I may be rich, but, honey,

I haven't lost sense
of managing my money.

Mm, tell that to your
Morris Chestnut statue.

Ah, appreciation
takes many forms.

Anyway, the solution

and the best solution
to our little problem is simple:

me moving back in
to Chez Thomas.

Okay, my turn.

Uh, I don't think that is
the best solution, Leslie.

And who asked you?

I forgot what
downtime feels like.

That right there
is your problem.

Listening to Shonda,
even concussed,

you would've gone straight
from the primary

-to stumping for the general.
-It is not that bad.

He says that
as he responds to her text.

Fair point,
but that's why I need this.

Room to breathe before
the general kicks into gear.

Yeah, I could use
a breather, too.

My editor is breathing
down my neck 'cause I have

a few more articles
to write for the series.

And after graduation,
I'm going to be chilling hard.

Chess, sleep and Jessica
before Banneker starts.

Must be nice.

I won't have a second to myself
this entire summer.

Platinum Deb duties never end.

What kind of duties?

Smiling and taking photos
for IG?

More like community service.
Look it up.

Huh.

Look at you two.

So busy that we're starting
to feel more like roommates

than an actual family.

You ready
to head back to the hotel?

I could have
the car brought around.

No, I'd rather stay here

and erase every trace of
Dani Dupree from your office.

Mm, well, inquiring minds want
to know how you plan to do that.

I bet Dani never spent
an entire day with you

naked under a trench coat.

Oh...

Well, that would be
a new experience.

Good.

Already one-upped her.

You know, why don't you send
the staff home

for the rest of the day?

We wouldn't want any
interruptions.

I'll be right back.

♪ ♪

Caroline is spreading the word
that the workday is over,

so we have the place
to ourselves.

Perfect.

I thought we could start

our bedroom bucket list
over drinks.

Hmm, whatever you say.

Yes, I need the jet prepped,
ready for takeoff ASAP.

Napa County Airport.

Well, thank you
for your expediency.

-All set?
-Just about.

Do you need to stop
by your place

to pick up a few things?

Or I could just have
a full wardrobe

waiting for you in our room.

You really are too good to me.

No, I'm not.

I thought you were
putting an end to that.

Daddy.

-I can't believe you're here.
-Of course I am.

You think I would move on
without seeing

my Deanna Doll again?

I've been wanting
to talk to you.

There's so much I have to say.

I know, sweetheart,
and I want to hear all about it.

I'm just surprised
that you haven't shut down

this Joey situation

and protected your mom
from continuing

the biggest mistake of her life.

Well, I tried, Daddy,
but she won't listen to me.

It's like the more I say,
the more she runs back to him.

Yeah, that sounds familiar.

I'm sorry. I thought...

I... I know I let you down.

Hey, look at me.

You could never let me down.

You hear me? Never.

You're my heart, Deanna.

I know I can count on you.

But I feel like I'm failing
and like I'm losing Mom.

Because you're playing
the wrong game.

What does that mean?

Uh, hanging up on her

the moment you hear Joey
in the background,

making a big scene
at the clinic after-party,

barely speaking to her
at the cotillion.

I had every right
to be mad about all of that.

I'm not saying you didn't.

It's just, right now,
Joey's her safe space.

She doesn't have
to explain herself to him

or justify her feelings
or actions.

She could just live without
somebody judging her every move.

So now I'm the bad guy because
I was looking out for her?

No, baby, you are the heroine
in this story.

But you're pushing her away
when you need to pull her close.

Think about it.
What if you support her?

Respect the choices.

Even the ones you hate.

[gasps] Then she would turn
to me instead of turning to him.

Be that whip-smart, strategic,

intelligent mind I know you are.

If you want your mom back,
don't fight Joey.

Outplay him.

With all due respect, Leslie,

you moving in with Eva
isn't the play.

My daughter needs
someone to take care of her

when she gets out of here.

-She has me.
-Oh, really?

Okay, how about a compromise?

Mama, you come by,
after calling first,

once a day to help me out,
but you do not move in.

Okay, you keep your space,
I keep mine.

Does that work?

Good with me,
and we can work in shifts.

Hey, guess I'll just stay
in my sad little lonely hotel

where no one wants me.

[groans] Don't.

What? I am agreeing.

[knock on door]

Sorry to interrupt,
but it is therapy time for Eva.

Going to need to scoot
you two on out.

LESLIE:
Now?

Oh, come on,
she just had surgery.

Her body hasn't even had time
to process what happened.

Yep, we like to get people
moving as soon as possible

so they can heal faster.

I promise you I will not break
your daughter's body.

Why don't we go grab
some coffee?

Don't you have a meeting?

I could spare some time.

Fine, but I want progress
reports when I get back.

Detailed ones.

Lord help us.

I'm starting to suspect you lob

these relationship questions
to avoid therapy.

Mm, so you and Mom are in
a relationship.

Good to know.

We're taking it
one day at a time.

Well, you have been
Mom's plus-one

to almost every Dupree function.

-Slowly.
-That's not giving day-to-day.

That's giving
exclusive membership.

Why don't we save the questions
and, uh, start with therapy?

Why don't you lift
and hold for five?

Um, so your sons?

-I knew that wouldn't last.
-[sighs]

-Did you tell them about Mom?
-Yes.

I have,
and they're actually very happy

that I'm seeing somebody
now that their mom has passed.

Oh, they sound like good boys.

Are you going to introduce them?

Yes, I would like
to introduce them

to Nicole one day.

She's incredible.

She really is.

Hey, pour you a cup?

Uh, make it two.
I'm getting one for Leslie.

Ah, let me guess.

Shanice kicked you both out
of Eva's room, huh?

It was necessary.

After what happened, I want
to be near Eva all the time.

Yeah, almost losing someone

has a way of restructuring
your priorities, huh?

It might sound intense, but
Eva's become everything to me.

-Mm.
-I can't imagine my life

without her in it.

Which is why I'm glad
I ran into you.

Why is that?

There is something important
I need to ask.

Uh, something that will affect
Eva's future.

TED:
Hmm.

So much for starting
a new chapter.

For the record,
I wasn't eavesdropping.

It sure looked that way to me.

Okay, Izaiah and I
came for coffee.

Nature called,
so I made a detour.

When I came back out,
I overheard him telling Ted

the sweetest words
any mama could ever hear.

"I want to ask for your
daughter's hand in marriage."

So how does Eva feel about
Dana trying to move back in?

[scoffs]
Heart rate went way up.

Mm-hmm. That sounds about right.

Yeah, uh, we talked her down,
I think.

But with Leslie, you never know.

Well, she tries to run
a reverse play on you,

I'll run interference
best I can.

-I appreciate it.
-Yeah.

SHANICE:
Mm-hmm, yeah, just like that.

[quiet, indistinct chatter]

-Oh, Eva.
-Uh, hey, Kat.

[chuckles] Just... Oh.

Eva, I can guide you this way.

LESLIE:
Kat, go over there, baby.

Sweetheart, why don't you just
go to the left?

-Try one at a time.
-Pivot... Eva.

-Pivot your walker.
-Go one at a time.

-That's all you need to do.
-Eva, just turn it. All you...

-Stop!
-Stop!

I cannot believe this.

Wait, so sensory deprivation
doesn't fly?

No, not even with
glow-in-the-dark paint.

Huh, babe, we've exhausted
every freaky idea

we could dream of,
but none of them are new for us.

Mm, we've lived full lives.

-Too full.
-Mm.

You know, maybe we don't need

new, mind-blowing experiences.

Maybe we need new experiences
that lead to mind-blowing sex.

[Bill chuckles]

I have all the faith in
the world in you, sweetheart.

I can do this.

I know you can.

And I will be here guiding you
every step of the way.

Even when you feel alone,
I'll be here.

Now, go and break whatever spell
Joey has on Vanessa.

And put our family
back together.

Thank you, Daddy.

I love you.

So that's the hidden vineyard.

Yep, where we get to make
our own blend

and we take...

Hello, you two.

Deanna, honey,
what are you doing here?

Well, I think
I'll let you two catch up.

Um, actually,
I'd prefer if you stayed.

Are you trying to finish
what Mother Nature

couldn't accomplish?
I'm not letting you

or anybody else
shove me out of a plane.

Oh, Bill, come on,
let's be real.

If I wanted to kill you,
that's not how I would do it.

I cannot believe
big bad Bill Hamilton

is afraid of heights.

No, I can handle the heights
just fine.

What I don't like is
hurtling toward Earth

at a hundred miles an hour

and then being held up in
the air by a glorified napkin.

Mm, well, I've been told
that the adrenaline rush

lasts for hours

and having sex right after
is euphoric.

[sighs]

Babe, I...
I've always wanted to try it.

Mm, well, that makes one of us.

I'm sorry, you're going to need

a more convincing argument
than that.

Still not convinced.

Starting to see
my side of things now?

[sighs]

Well...

Thank the Lord my life insurance
is in order.

Looks like
we're going skydiving.

Dad won
the pizza-eating contest.

I didn't realize
it was a contest.

I was just hungry.

Pops should stick
to political games.

Your game was not on point.

Uh, okay, okay,
so I had an off night,

but there's one area in
this room I have everyone beat.

Is it speechifying?

Uh, no.
It's doting on my family.

Samantha, please sit down.

We have something
we want to say.

[Martin sighs]

MARTIN:
Okay.

Samantha,

you have walked through fire
these past few months,

and you could've fallen apart,
but you didn't.

You kept going.

And not only do you talk about
making a difference, you do it.

With your big heart
and caring spirit,

you light up every room.

And we couldn't be prouder

of the young woman
you're becoming.

SMITTY:
That's me.

[clears throat]

Tyrell.

You're graduating.

To some, that might seem like

just checking a box,
but with what you've shouldered,

that cap and gown
is going to mean something.

You have fought
to get here, son.

And watching you walk
down that aisle,

that is going to be

one of the proudest moments
of our entire lives.

MARTIN:
People have doubted all of us.

Questioned whether
we belonged in certain areas,

certain families.

They looked at us and saw
something that didn't fit

into their idea
of what should be.

SMITTY:
We could have believed them.

But instead,
we broke down barriers.

Won campaigns.

Wrote articles
that exposed the truth.

Graduated.

Became Platinum Deb.

SMITTY:
Survived a literal tornado.

And we hope
we've helped you learn

that nothing in this world
can beat you but yourself.

And there's no limitations
except for the ones you accept.

And so, we would like
to continue this celebration.

In the Bahamas!

[laughter]

-What?
-When did you guys...?

So you weren't texting
about work.

MARTIN:
Mm-mm.

SAMANTHA:
You were texting each other.

Your pop and I feel like
we all deserve

some more quality time
before life gets in the way.

We leave right after graduation.

Can Jessica come?

If her parents say yes, yeah,
sure, she's more than welcome.

Come here!

[laughing, cheering]

Congratulations.

Thanks, but for what exactly?

The proposal?

You heard about that?

Leslie told me.

How would Leslie know
about Tomas proposing to Kat?

Tomas is proposing?

Who else would it be?

Leslie overheard you
and Izaiah talking

and assumed...

Well, if she would've
stuck around,

she would've heard
that Izaiah wasn't asking

for Eva's hand, he was asking
for mine to help him stop Dana.

Wait, when did Tomas propose?

And why is this the first
that I'm hearing about it?

I was told earlier,
and I'm still processing.

I take it you don't like
the idea, either.

Uh, I got my reservations.

-The timing?
-Yeah.

Tomas is emotional.

The tornado, the surgery,
it heightens everything.

You think we should give Kat
a heads-up?

No.

She made the right choice
with the surgery.

We need to trust
that she will here, too.

I just love
how old-school you are.

I mean, going to Eva's father

was just so respectful.

You like that I asked Ted

to stop you
from moving in with Eva?

Is that what you two were
over here kikiing about?

Oh, my God.

I thought you were asking
for Eva's hand in marriage.

No, no, I... [scoffs]

Didn't I promise you
that I'd give you a heads-up?

Yes.

So you're not going
to tell her, right?

No. Disappointed as I am,

no wedding talk
will come from these lips.

For now.

KIAL:
Okay, you can slow down.
This is not a competition.

KAT:
You say that while I have
the advantage.

SHANICE:
Eva, I do not want you
to hurt yourself.

EVA:
I can't help it, she brings
out my competitive side.

I get it.

When I walked in,
you two looked giddy.

We were just...

...planning
a last-minute getaway.

That's right.

Napa Valley.
Plane leaves in an hour.

You should find a winery
that does a paint-and-sip class.

We did one at the lodge
on our ski trip.

I'm sure Napa has options, too.

I'll find some recs.

Well, that's very nice of you.

Don't mention it.

After the tornado,
I realized how fragile life is.

I'd rather you happy and whole
than miserable, so...

If Joey makes you happy, I won't
stand in your way anymore.

Sweetheart.

That means the world.

ALL:
Surprise!

[cheers and applause]

-Would Deanna recognize you?
-Maybe.

-Why?
-JOEY: She's the job.

You are crazy if you think
that you can win this case.

Oh, I know I can win.

Let's get to it.

If you reached for solace
outside of your marriage,

anyone would understand.

I've been lying to him
for months.

As of today,
the partnership between

Garland and your free clinic,
it's over.

Excuse me?

Will you do me the honor
of my life and marry me?
