What a nightmare. How is Smitty holding up?
He's got to be shaken up after the arrest.
He is putting on a brave face,
but he is terrified and humiliated.
- And the kids? - Smitty and Martin insisted
- that they go to school. - I guess it's best that
they keep things normal.
Yeah. I offered to take Samantha.
We're at Caffeine Fix right now. She's picking up our order.
I figured she could use a treat.
Is that your way of doing a temperature check on her?
You know me too well, Sissy.
Usually, Tyrell is the one that's all frazzled,
but he seems to be coming into his own
since going off to college.
He actually comforted Smitty on his way back to Banneker.
But Samantha... I could tell that she was visibly shaken.
I'm so sorry to hear that.
Give her a warm squeeze for me, huh?
[door opens]
And if anyone can ease Samantha's mind,
it is you.
Keep me posted, okay?
I will. I love you, Dani.
I love you, too, Sissy.
- How is Aunt Nicole? - Oh, well, you know.
In one day she found out that her ex-husband is engaged,
and her son-in-law was arrested for drug-induced homicide.
Yeah, Kat gave me an earful about it.
I bet she did, and I'm sure you were a calming force.
I wish. She is way too pissed at Jacob for arresting Smitty.
What a mess, huh?
Naomi has got to get those charges dropped, or else...
Hey, she will. For Smitty and Jacob.
I feel for my son-in-law.
Jacob's hands were tied.
- Well, not everybody feels that way, Mom. - I know.
But Jacob had no choice but to charge Smitty
after they found those pills in the brownstone, family or not.
Mm, I guess you're right.
Besides, Jacob did arrest you
after you fired that gun at Dad and Hayley's wedding.
Oh, you just had to go there, didn't you? [Laughs]
Speaking of your father, today is his big day, isn't it?
- Like you have to ask. - What?
You were the one who reminded Naomi and me every year.
Well, do you have any plans for his birthday?
Well, that's why I wanted to talk with you.
Uh-uh.
Oh, no, count me out.
My days of planning birthday extravaganzas
for Bill Hamilton are over.
[phone chimes]
Oh, what in the...?
[phone chimes]
[phone buzzing]
Bill?
The settlement money is in your account.
Ah.
It's all there. Thank you.
Don't expect me to say, "You're welcome."
I also need my clothes and jewelry.
Oh, sure, you can have all that stuff back
now that my security team is done
sweeping it for hidden bugs.
Yeah, whatever's left is yours. Goodbye.
Bill, wait.
Wait for what, Hayley?
What else do you want from me?
I just wanted...
You just what?
You fooled me once, but never again.
I finally see you for exactly who and what you are:
a gold-digging, murderous bitch.
Goodbye.
Damn.
Tell me how you really feel.
? ?
MARTIN: Good morning.
What's so good about it?
Mmm. This.
This almost feels nice enough
to make me forget everything that happened yesterday.
Well, the kids are already on their way to school.
You want to come back up to bed?
I have too much on my mind.
Let me help us both forget our troubles.
As gifted a lover as you are, Martin,
unless you can prove I'm being set up,
even your charm is not enough to
make me forget everything I might be facing.
What on earth was Jacob thinking, arresting Smitty?
Now, you know he was just doing his job.
Well, his first job as a member of this family is to be loyal.
Naomi certainly drove that point home
after the debacle of Dani's arrest.
And rightfully so.
This situation with Smitty must be
challenging for both of them.
Being on opposite sides
must be putting quite the strain on their marriage.
I'm more worried about our grandson's political career.
A scandal like this could ruin Martin.
Well, it will not come to that. You will see to it.
Not only are you Martin's grandfather and mentor,
but you are one of the greatest political minds
of the 20th and 21st century.
There is not a scandal on the Beltway
too wieldy for Vernon Dupree to outmaneuver.
- Mm. Hmm. - [phone chimes]
I believe you spoke too soon.
The video's been leaked.
Lord help us.
Sorry for the wait. The line was longer than expected.
Oh, it's fine.
Mm. Exactly the way I like it. Thank you, sweetie.
I should be thanking you.
As much as I love my dads and Tyrell,
sometimes it's easier to talk about feelings
with someone with a lot less testosterone.
Well, I am here for you.
So, how are you feeling, Samantha?
Like the universe has it out for my family.
Say more about that.
It feels like every time that we're going to be okay,
something more cray-cray
than the last cray-cray thing happens.
I promise you, the universe is not out to get us.
Then what the heck is going on?
What your dad is going through
is a gross miscarriage of justice.
And I am certain it will all be straightened out in due time.
How can you be so sure?
Because Smitty is innocent,
and Naomi will prove that.
The police found the exact same pills
that killed Dr. Whitmore in our brownstone.
That means whoever's framing my dad broke into our home.
It's scary, and I-I feel so violated.
These are all valid emotions.
What you, Tyrell and your dads are going through
is a lot to navigate.
But it all can be managed one step at a time.
So don't let it trip me up?
And even if it does,
you have a lot of family here to help catch you.
True.
Now, the first step is to exonerate your dad.
Once Naomi does that,
then Jacob and your dad can get to the bottom
of who really is behind all of this.
- [women giggling] - I hope you're right.
Do you know those kids?
Uh, yeah. They're from my debutante class
- for the cotillion. - Oh, yeah, they do look familiar.
- [giggling] - SAMANTHA: Not sure why
they're staring.
[phone pings]
[sighs] This isn't happening.
What? What is it?
It's my dad.
Someone posted a video of his arrest.
Look, I can't take this anymore, babe.
Is this how things are going to be between us
until this case is behind us?
I'm terrified for Smitty.
Not to mention how it'll impact Martin and the kids.
Trust me, I feel awful about it.
I'm just as worried about them as you are.
I know. I believe you.
I guess my only saving grace is keeping things discreet
- for Martin and Smitty while still going by the book. - Mm.
I swear, after burying Derek, arresting Smitty is one
of the hardest things I ever had to do.
So this is your fault?
What are you talking about?
- NAOMI: What's wrong, June? - One of my baby daddies
being perp-walked like some common criminal...
It's all over social media.
Oh, no.
They recorded this last night at the station.
NAOMI: Looks like
there's still a leak in your department, Detective.
- You gave Dad a gift last year. - So?
So that means that the two of you are on better terms
- than you were then. - And?
And I figured you would be on board with helping me come up
with a surprise for him this year.
Your father and I are on better terms
mainly because I just saved his life.
My work is done, Chels.
Mom, you can plan this thing for him with your eyes closed,
and it's just something nice to do.
Then do it yourself.
I am sure your father will love
whatever you and your sister plan to celebrate him.
Uh, Naomi's a little busy trying to keep Smitty out of prison?
Come on, Mom.
Dad hasn't been the same since he found out about Hayley.
You're right, he hasn't.
I could really use an assist.
I'm sorry, honey, but I'm not the one.
Okay.
All I want to do is remind my dad how much he is loved.
And there's no one on the planet
who knows more about how to make that man smile than you.
BILL: Damn.
This is bad.
[line ringing]
AUTOMATED VOICE: The person you are trying to call is not available.
[knocking at door]
Don't they see the "Do not disturb" sign on the door?
No, thank you, housekeeping.
LESLIE: Good thing I ain't no damn maid.
It's your bestest bestie. Open up.
Oh, my God.
What do you want, Leslie?
Uh, rude.
I brought us some games to play.
But on my way over,
something much more entertaining presented itself.
- Ooh. - Like?
- Uh. - Oh.
You know, you really should thank the good Lord
that I am a very forgiving and gracious person,
or else I wouldn't be sharing this piping hot tea.
- Mm. - Okay, what is it?
Well, if your head weren't all buried in the sand,
you'd already be hip.
Leslie, I'm on a social media cleanse.
All right? Just spill it.
Whomp. There it is.
Wait.
Is... is that Smitty?
Yep.
Chile, the good congressman's boo thang
done got himself arrested
for killing that vampiric lady doctor
who was stealing all the blood from folks.
To help keep your strength up.
I don't have the flu, Martin.
I'm being charged with a felony.
You know, I could die in prison over this.
I was just trying to help.
I'm sorry.
You know, I should be catering to you.
If news about my arrest gets out,
it could tank your chances of being reelected.
I am not thinking about my election.
- You have to, Martin. - No.
My priority is you.
My focus is on helping you get through this.
That's what's most important.
[knocking at door]
Who could that be, this early in the day?
Oh, it's Shonda.
- What's wrong? - Everything.
Could you be a tad more specific?
I need to sit down.
MARTIN: How did this happen?
Jacob assured us there'd be no press.
This isn't an official video from the department.
Some shady cop filmed my perp walk,
unbeknownst to Jacob and Naomi.
I'm going to sue the hell out of that police department.
I'm afraid we have bigger fish to fry.
Like salvaging what's left of your political career.
Where's Olivia Pope and her white hats when you need them?
You're joking right now?
Instead of celebrating the anticipated bump in the polls
from yesterday's successful campaign event,
we're dealing with a crisis
not even the great Judy Smith would touch.
On the flip side,
a congressman's spouse being falsely accused
of a crime wouldn't even make D.C.'s top 20 list
of most salacious scandals.
Your arrest would rank higher than you think,
considering Martin's a member of one of the country's
most famous families.
And you're being charged with providing pills
that a once-respected physician
turned organized criminal operative used
in her death by suicide.
Did I forget to mention the series of stellar articles
on said dead criminal operative's exploits
has you shortlisted for a Pulitzer?
Okay, Shonda, take it easy. We get it.
[phone buzzing]
I take it you've seen the video?
Your Gran and I just saw it.
Have you spoken with Shonda?
Yeah. She's here hyperventilating.
VERNON: I need the three of you to get over
to the house as soon as possible.
We have to get out in front of this.
Why would someone post that video?
The perks of public-figure parents.
Whoever leaked that was probably looking for a payday
from one of those tabloid Instagram feeds
who obsess over everything Dupree.
This is a nightmare.
Hey, Samantha.
Oh. Hey, Naya.
Oh, I'm so sorry to hear about your dad.
Uh, thank you.
I appreciate you for saying that.
So, what is it like?
What do you mean?
Having a crackhead for a mother
and a murderer for an adoptive father?
All right, that is enough, young lady.
Both of you should be ashamed of yourselves.
Now move along.
I am so sorry, sweetheart.
What is that girl's name so I can call her parents?
No, please don't.
It'll only make things worse.
Do you want me to take you home?
If I go home, it'll make Dad feel worse than he already does.
I'm going to school.
If you're sure...
I'm sure.
Tyrell and Samantha must be a mess.
The kids are resilient.
They shouldn't have to be.
Not anymore.
I put my babies through enough trauma to last a lifetime.
The tough times were supposed to be over
once they found their forever home with their dads, Naomi.
How could you arrest a sweet soul like Smitty?
You know doggone well he didn't kill nobody.
I'm not at liberty to discuss an ongoing investigation.
To hell with your investigation.
This is family we're talking about.
- Don't you think I know that? - Jacob...
I didn't mean to overstep. I'm worried, is all.
I apologize, too.
I know how much you care about Smitty.
We all care about Smitty,
and we all know what kind of man he is.
I'm going to do everything in my power
to make sure he beats this thing, okay?
I better get back to work.
Is that the kind of treatment I'll be getting
- from my loved ones from now on? - [phone chimes]
Sorry. I, um...
I have to get going.
Granddad needs me at the house.
I have been to hell and back with your father and Hayley.
I know, and it's been awful.
And despite that, my heart goes out to him.
Well, no one has been more compassionate than you.
You risked your life to save Dad from that viper.
And I would do it again.
Bill did not deserve what Hayley did to him.
He loved that scheming she-devil,
and it almost cost him his life.
Well, thanks to you, it didn't.
That's why we should celebrate together.
Now that Hayley's spell has been broken,
Bill is going to have to embark on new adventures without me.
I can't be his tag along.
It's not fair to Andre if Bill and I stay that entangled.
And I know you understand that, don't you?
I do.
Thank you for everything you've already done,
and keep living your best life.
My ever-after with Madison wouldn't be as happy
if our fairy-tale love was constantly visited by her ex.
So please forgive me for going into child mode.
Oh, consider yourself absolved. Come here.
Well, on that note,
I'm going to go see Dad and try to wrangle him
from his office for a birthday lunch.
- He will love that. - [phone chiming]
- Looks like you have the hotline. - Ah.
- Uh-oh. - What's wrong?
Oh, man.
It's like my eyes are deceiving me.
Yeah, well, seeing is believing, honey.
Are you sure this isn't AI?
I mean, it's not like I know him that well,
but Smitty didn't seem like the guy,
you know, who would do anything even remotely illegal.
Well, like my play-mama Peaches always said...
Hmm.
It's those straitlaced, quiet ones.
I don't know. His-his good- guy vibes are pretty strong.
Hmm. All I know is...
King Vernon and Queen Anita are probably fit to be tied.
Not to mention that royal pain in my hiney,
Princess Tricky Nikki.
Hmm.
Yeah. Her son-in-law is
jammed up.
Uh, those we-invented-breathing Duprees
are always looking down their noses at us, you and me.
Mm-hmm. Calling us everything but righteous.
And here they are with a whole murderer in the family. Mm.
- What's this? - The original key to this place.
I had it gold-plated and made into a necklace.
- Happy birthday. - Ah, Chelsea Bear.
What are you doing? I said no...
I know you didn't want to make your birthday a big deal, but
it's a miracle you're even here, Dad.
And when I think about how sad your birthday could have been,
I'm just so grateful to spend it with you.
Oh. Well,
I am blessed to spend it with you, too.
- Aw. - Thank you.
Mm-hmm. Go on, open it.
You know I already have plenty of these devices.
What's this about?
Open it.
Oh. What? [Laughs]
[giggles] I was hoping that would be your reaction.
Well, I'm not surprised by the gag gift,
but you actually signed me up for a dating site?
Well, you may not be ready just yet,
and when you are, I've already prescreened your matches.
- You want to see some? - Oh, can I stop you?
Okay. This one's my favorite.
- Come on, you can't be serious. - What?
- Chelsea, this woman's pushing 80. - Well, right.
Which means that she probably poses no threat.
We can't risk you falling for anyone else
you can't outrun if she tries to kill you.
I want you here for a long, long time.
Yeah, well, you don't have anything to worry about.
- You promise? - I promise.
My marrying days are behind me.
And these profiles make me think my dating days are, too.
I mean, look.
- She's pretty. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- [sprays] - [sniffs]
Hmm. The only thing that'll make this better
is a live-action play-by-play
of Smitty's eventual trial.
You know, like the ones that they
that they did for those high-profile cases
with those celebrity families.
What did Smitty ever do to you?
Not a thing,
but he is a member of the Dupree dynasty,
and his tears are Anita's sorrow.
Serves her right after how she treated my mama.
Yeah, but you taking this hating thing a little too far for me.
Hmm. Says the poisoner.
- Hmm. - Are you trying to tell me
that you wouldn't get some type of glee
out of seeing how distraught Dani,
her daughters, and the rest of the Duprees are right now
that Smitty is headed to the pokey?
Hmm.
You know, it would be nice
to rub it in Kat's face.
I wouldn't be surprised
if she's running all over the DMV getting her Sherlock on,
trying to prove Smitty's innocence.
- Oh, see? - Hmm.
I knew you could relish in a little Dupree downfall,
once you put your little mind to it.
Surprised to see you at work today.
Why is that?
Figured you'd take the day off
to find yourself a good divorce attorney.
You're going to need one now that you arrested
another member of your bougie wife's family.
I talked to Mom on the way here.
She was with Chelsea when they saw the video.
She wanted to be here, but didn't want
to get in the way during crisis mode.
Well, right now, all support is welcome.
Mom's funny.
She said lawyers, psychiatrists,
political operatives are all necessary.
Supermodels, not so much.
She forgot about singers.
Maybe I could lead us in a tune or two.
Oh, you are so much more than that, Mother.
- You are our rock. - Hear! Hear!
NAOMI: Where is everyone else?
NICOLE: Uh, Daddy pulled Martin and Shonda into his study
so they could talk next steps for the campaign.
He wants to get in front of this arrest right away.
The thought is that they focus on getting Martin reelected.
We focus on keeping me out of the "and in other news" section.
Well, this is complete nonsense anyway.
Everyone knows that Smitty wouldn't hurt a fly.
I mean, the man rescues spiders
and releases them out into the grass, for heaven's sake.
MARTIN: Gran's right.
No one in their right mind would think Smitty's a criminal.
Which begs the question,
is Jacob insane,
or merely incompetent?
This leaked video is the worst.
It really sucks for Smitty and the entire family.
I hate all the smut and smears and just crazy drama.
Yeah. Well, I imagine
the family's gathering and game-planning as we speak.
How'd you guess?
Kat, Mom and I are going to give them time to strategize
before we show up later for moral support.
Well, well, don't sell yourself,
your mother and your cousin short.
You know, the three of you are more
than just fashionably dressed pretty faces.
- Well, thanks, Dad. - Yeah. Well, hell,
Kat will probably solve the whole case
before the police even find a clue.
And on the off chance she doesn't,
then Dani will drive Smitty away in the getaway car.
Well, what about me?
Well, you, my beautiful daughter,
have the magical gift of making everyone around her feel better.
It's a gift you inherited from your mother.
I am willing to bet that things at your photo shoot
are going much better than they are around here.
No, I haven't spoken to Smitty or Martin yet.
I'm sure my daddy's managing the crisis.
No, I don't think they've called Bill.
Because he's no longer my husband, Andre.
Nor is he our family's fixer.
And we are all better for it.
As much as I've enjoyed kikiing with you
over the Dupree's very bad day, Leslie,
you should be going.
Why? It's not like you have anything else to do.
I was actually on my way out.
Oh. Okay, then how about tonight?
You, me and my boo can grab some dinner.
Is that why you're really here?
- Did Marcel send you? - Okay, girl, you know what?
You need to ease up on that coffee
'cause it's making you a little jittery.
Answer the question, Leslie.
Are you here because Marcel sent you?
Why would Marcel send me to talk to you?
I don't know. I...
I guess I'm just a bit paranoid after being arrested.
Okay.
Well, don't lose yourself, all right?
Anyway, look, thank you for the invites,
but I won't be able to make dinner tonight.
All right, suit yourself, bestie.
Best BFF ever. Thanks for breakfast.
You keep it together.
Oh, my God.
How about you worry about what you got going on with Leslie
and stay out of my marriage?
Hey, don't shoot the messenger.
I'm just stating the obvious.
I mean, the Duprees may be upper-crust,
but they're more ride-or-die than most street crews I know.
I'm not feeling the association you're making.
Spoken like a true persona non grata within the family.
Look, man, how about you back up off me?
Hey, I'm just trying to understand something.
I mean, what did you expect?
You put shackles on Congressman Richardson's husband.
Your lovefest with the Duprees is over.
You know what, Martin? I'm getting real sick
of you coming for my husband.
You mean, the way your husband came for mine?
That's enough, you two.
Granddad's right. This is not the time
to be turning on each other.
And you both know better.
I do not want my problem driving a wedge between you two.
You're right.
- I apologize. I just... - NAOMI: No.
I get it, and I'm sorry, too.
We may not see eye-to-eye on Jacob's role in all of this,
but we're in 100% agreement
when it comes to defending Smitty
against these ridiculous charges, right?
Right.
I hate to pivot, but while Naomi mounts a vigorous defense,
Martin will have already been tried and convicted
by association in the court of public opinion.
VERNON: Shonda's right.
Smitty's defense could take months.
The election will be over and done by then.
SHONDA: We've got to get on the same page
about how to stave off the bleeding.
Martin's got to make a public statement
denouncing the charges
and showing full support for Smitty,
with his husband by his side.
I'm sorry, Vernon, but that cannot happen.
Excuse me?
We cannot stand in a room full of reporters.
My "peers" will rip Martin and me
up one side and down another.
SHONDA: I promise it'll just be
a few handpicked journalists I have good relationships with,
who've been favorable to Martin's campaign.
Shonda, you can't guarantee one of those reporters
won't throw us a gotcha question. I would.
NICOLE: You think you'd make things worse
for Martin by being there?
I do, yeah.
Baby, imagine if I had gone to that event with you
and been arrested in front of
a roomful of your constituents.
But you hiding out?
Is that the way to go?
I believe that it is, yes.
In that case, the rest of us will head down
to Orphey Gene's for Martin's statement.
- I'll stay here with Smitty. - Me, too.
- I love you. - I love you, too.
- June... - Oh, baby, baby, I came
as soon as I finished my shift.
Uh, thank you for answering my text so fast.
I saw this awful video. Are you okay?
I'm not sure if I ever felt worse.
Baby, it's going to be okay.
Well, if it isn't one of those criminal Duprees.
Not now, Leslie.
How's it feel to have a member of your family
on the wrong side of the law, Detective?
- I don't have time for this. - What?
Was it something I said?
You know full well it was.
Oh, nothing like getting a rise out of folks.
- Just makes me all giddy inside. - Ooh.
To what do I owe this pleasure?
I didn't think I'd see you till tonight.
Yeah, thought I'd pop by about something
that's been weighing heavily on my mind.
Uh-oh.
We can't have you worrying your pretty head about nothing.
Well, I am so glad that you feel that way.
Now, maybe it won't be a problem
for you to tell me what's going on
between you and Miss Hayley Hamilton.
Let me treat you to lunch.
- We can go down to the National Harbor... - [phone chimes]
or hit up Succotash, whatever you want.
BILL: Hmm.
Ah, your visit today
was birthday gift enough, sweetheart.
I hate to do this, but something's come up.
Are you serious?
You've already made my day.
Rain check on lunch?
- I'll check my calendar. - Okay.
[both laugh]
Dani's on her way to Orphey Gene's to support Martin.
I did want to say
that I hope you both don't think less of me.
Whatever for?
For not showing up for Martin.
Smitty, honey, do not be ridiculous.
There are many ways to support one's spouse.
And you have been an amazing husband to my son.
There is no doubt about that.
Even if I end up being the reason
that Martin's and my careers are over?
Trust me, Smitty, your arrest is not going to lead
to the end of your career.
Or Martin's, either.
Just focus on what you can control.
Honestly, Nicole, that doesn't seem like much these days.
In order to plant that prescription bottle of pills,
somebody broke into my house.
Unnoticed.
What if Samantha and Tyrell had walked in when that happened?
What if Martin had?
Who knows what this person would have done had they been caught?
NICOLE: There's no use
in driving yourself crazy
over hypothetical scenarios.
The kids are safe, they're going to remain safe
because their amazing dads are going to see to it.
And we are going to do what we always do
in times of crisis...
Get through this together, as a family.
I tried to stay at school, but I just couldn't.
Mm-mm. Don't worry.
I won't make you go back.
You can stay here until you feel better,
and then I'll take you home.
Let me text your Dad and Pop
and let them know you are safe with me.
Practically everybody at school was talking
about Dad's arrest and joking about it.
Is that what's bothering you?
I could wring those kids' necks for hurting my baby.
They're just being kids.
They're not the reason that I'm hurting.
Then what is it?
I'm scared to death for my dad.
What if he goes to prison?
I saw the video. I'm guessing you did, too?
Yeah.
Everything's going to be okay, Samantha.
Mm-hmm. That's what I was just telling her.
You don't know that.
Good people like my dad go down all the time,
while awful people get away with murder.
When you saw me dropping Hayley off at Uptown,
I was interrogating an attempted murderess.
Okay, if that's all it was, then why does she get all tight
every time your name comes up?
What do you mean? Like what?
Like she's jumpy, anxious,
like she's got ants in her designer pants,
and, oddly, starts asking all kinds of questions.
And what does she want to know?
If you sent me to check up on her, for one.
Oh, is that all?
You don't have anything to worry about.
You sure about that?
My interest in Hayley Hamilton started and stopped
with her alleged crimes,
and now that the charges have been dropped,
she's not even on my radar.
Don't drench me with lies, Marcel.
Look here.
I only have eyes for one woman.
It isn't your eyes...
I'm interested in.
Hello, family.
How is my favorite nephew doing?
Well, your only nephew will feel a whole lot better
when Smitty's exonerated, and I'm reelected.
I have every faith
that both of those things are going to happen,
especially with my brilliant lawyer daughter
handling Smitty's case.
Thanks for your vote of confidence, Mom.
- Always. - Martin?
Let me fill you in on some of the reporters we're expecting.
- If you'll excuse me. - Of course.
All right, Daddy, give it to me straight.
Do we think Martin's campaign can survive this?
I won't sugarcoat it.
We have one hell of a fight on our hands.
Well, then we are lucky
to have the heavyweight champ in our corner.
DANI: Ooh, this heifer
must have lost her everlasting mind.
The audacity.
She just doesn't learn.
Uh, simmer down, Dani.
Remember we are here for Martin.
It's always the archnemesis
rearing her puny, ugly little head
at the most inopportune times.
I swear, if the cameras weren't already on,
I would throttle her.
Let me handle Hayley.
Whatever you think you've got planned for now,
think again.
I had no idea you all would be here.
Walk away.
I'm here for my takeout.
The nearest drive-through would suit you much better.
Am I right?
But my order is ready.
If you know what's good for you, leave
now.
Thank you, Daddy.
It seems your way with words still has an impact.
Ah, communication is the key to understanding and survival.
DANI: Mm-hmm.
Can I help you with anything?
Your presence is plenty.
Martin needs the show of support.
