Original subtitles

[Chantel] Previously on Haus of Vicious...

Ooh. Yes! This is what I'm talking about.

Magic. Let's make this happen.

What made you think that you could run off with my money,

my man, and my baby?

Oh, my God!

What have you done?

Let's start this again.

What did you do?

Okay, okay, look, I had to borrow some money.

Bishop was fucking with me, all right?

Chantel's pressuring me and Harvey steals my company.

I just, I needed enough to get straight.

You know what this is. Fill 'em up.

Don't do nothing stupid and you're not gonna get hurt.

All of it.

[screams]

-Bishop, please. -[shushing]

Start begging now.

Daddy's home now, baby.

This is all you.

And whatever it is that you took from Bishop,

he wants it back.

♪ Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

♪ Ooh-ooh, ah...

[Raven] You ready?

Hot water.

Pyrex. Water in the Pyrex.

Coke.

Now baking soda?

Told you I could chef it up, boo.

We're about to call this shit Ray of Sunshine.

[Man] [indistinct]

[Raven screams] Please! Please...

[Bishop] Bitch, if you don't shut the fuck up...

Pack that shit, let's go!

Hurry up!

Move!

Now get the fuck on the ground.

Bend your knees.

-[Bishop] And the money too. -What you talking about?

[Bishop] Yeah, you almost got it.

Let's go.

Now I'm about to make your momma scream.

[gun fires]

[Raven screams]

No. No. What the fuck?

Yo, that shit was crazy.

Yo, what the fuck did you just do?

I told you to stick to the plan.

Hey, nigga, don't come at me like that.

Yeah? Because of you, we got a body on our hands now.

Robbing niggas is one thing, but murking a motherfucker?

Nigga, you went too far.

You think these Bronx niggas just gonna let this shit go?

Man, fuck them. They can get it too.

No, that's what they gonna say when they find your ass.

Nigga, ain't no mercy in this game.

You live by the gun, you die by the bullet.

[Raven] What's going on?

Bishop, put it down. Enough niggas have died tonight.

[police sirens in distance] [Bishop] Fuck, man!

Hey, give me the fucking chain, nigga.

The fuck is wrong with you? Killing niggas and shit.

[Chantel] I've learned over the course of my life

that everything isn't always what it seems

and blood doesn't always make you family.

The truth of the matter is our most valuable relationships

are based on history.

We love the ones who prove they're gonna ride for us.

And these three, baby, they run deep.

They were thicker than government cheese.

Their history is strong and cannot be denied,

but their future feels a little more like Swiss cheese.

[gunshot]

[moody music]

Fuck you, man.

Fuck you, bitches.

[water sloshing]

We have a problem.

We?

What problem do we have?

Dayna's alive.

Wait, what? Dayna's what?

You heard me. Alive.

Not dead in some gutter where she should've been.

Alive. Pregnant.

And stashed in a warehouse by Chantel's sick fantasy.

This shit is becoming a never-ending nightmare.

You and Derelict Dick brought that whore...

I want that jump-off skank handled.

And Kane,

I see the only way I'm gonna get him

out of Chantel's life and out of my hair

is with a bullet to his head.

Oh, don't look at me like that.

Don't feign innocence

and do not act as if you do not know

what I'm talking about. [scoffs]

I know the whole sordid story.

And, frankly, I'm sick to my stomach

and appalled that you...

I did what Chantel wanted me to do.

I vetted Dayna.

Obviously, you were shitty at it and...

And, listen, it was supposed to be a simple transaction.

Dayna needed money. Chantel wanted a baby.

Anything after that is...

That is still on you.

This is unbelievable.

All I wanted was Derelict Dick gone.

That raid was supposed to do the trick.

Set Thug Knight up and send his ass to jail.

But, no, it was a botched mess.

Someone was killed, but it wasn't Dayna.

Or Kane, for that matter.

So, now, here we are again in this shit

because of you.

Now clean it up.

I want that baby and Dayna gone.

And how do you expect me to do that?

You're the paid fixer. Figure it out.

[bathwater swishing]

Not again, motherfucker.

Whoo, I ain't no weak-ass bitch.

Okay?

I'm the First Lady of Fashion.

I am thebitch.

-I'm the bitch. -[Carolyn] Chantel?

Chantel, what's going on in here?

Oh, my God. Mother.

Why are you creeping up on me?

[Carolyn] Creeping up? Girl, this my damn house.

-What you doing in here? -Okay.

[Carolyn] Should I be concerned?

Huh?

Yeah, that's what... You fucking with me, right?

That's what you like to do, Mother, fuck with me.

[Carolyn] Chantel, please.

♪ All the time, all the time That's what you do ♪

[chuckles]

You know, "Please," what? "Please," what, Mother?

Because do you realize that you called me

a weak bitch?

[Carolyn] And you were being weak.

You laid up here for three months.

Would've been three years if I had not dug into your ass.

Now, I asked you a question.

What are you doing in here?

I felt like I was minding my business.

I felt like I was minding my fucking business.

[Carolyn] And what business would that be?

Because the little business you had, you wrecked.

And from what I can see,

there's the wagon, there's you.

Oh, there it is.

There she is. Ha!

Fuck that shit, Mother.

You hate me, don't you?

You do.

You ain't never loved me.

You barely even like me.

All you do is berate me.

You was never kind.

You never had any compassion.

Shit.

Now here I am at my lowest. Right?

And all you do is piss on my recovery.

That's okay, Mother. That's okay.

That's okay.

Shit. I don't give a fuck no more.

'Cause I am done here. I'm done with you.

I'ma be leaving in the morning

and you ain't gotta worry about me ever again.

Oh!

Nothing like an addict and their theatrics.

You're not a prisoner here.

If you wish to leave, then go. The choice is yours.

But what you shall not do is make me feel guilty

for mothering you.

And if you do not want my help,

then you need to stop snorting your life away.

Woman up.

Make better decisions.

You know how to bring down

a motherfucker's high, don't you?

[incoherent mumbling]

You know I brought you in this game, right?

Gave you everything you needed to infiltrate Haus of Vicious.

[Avery] Mm-hmm.

And I infiltrated that shit too.

Played my part just like you wanted.

No, you haven't.

Don't say that. Yes, I have, Bishop.

What?

Now what was that for?

'Cause you ain't done shit.

Here we go.

You walk around here, screaming some damn, "Tea time."

Oh, how can I forget, you fucked ole boy.

Yeah, doing that goofy shit.

How else was I supposed to get the information, huh?

Oh, you thought that shit was gonna be easy?

Oh, I could just walk up to Chantel

and be like, "Oh, hey, girl. Can I get your secrets, please?"

No, that ain't how that shit goes.

[Bishop] You better check yourself.

Or what, my nigga?

[Bishop] You got me fucked up.

Look at yourself.

All those nights I laid in my cell,

thinking about you.

Imagining how I would handle your thick ass.

And because I considered all that,

don't think I won't fuck you up.

Now you remember what I told you?

[Avery] Hi.

-Hm, hm, hmm. -Hey, daddy.

Damn, Lil Ma.

Girl, you fine as fuck.

You know, after all this pen-paling shit,

-you finally here. -[Avery] Yeah.

[Bishop] With your sexy ass.

So how was the drive from Arkansas?

Ugh, long, so long,

but it was worth every mile to finally get close to you.

I've missed you so much.

Like, being here with you

is just everything I've always dreamed about.

-Are you dreaming about it? -[Avery] Mm-hmm. [chuckles]

-You sure about that, love? -Yes.

[Bishop] Okay, 'cause you know it's me and you now.

No games. No bullshit.

Hm-hmm. Well, I'm more than sure.

Mm-hmm.

I mean, I already told you that, daddy.

Like, come on, what else I gotta do to prove it to you, huh?

I have packed up my whole life and moved to California

all for you.

So all I want is you. Yes, I'm all in, baby.

Shit, that's what I wanna hear.

[Avery] Mm-hmm.

So you get that bread I sent you, right?

Yes, thank you.

I'ma, um, give the deposit to the lady

for the apartment as soon as I leave here.

Good, good, good, and you ready to get to work, right?

-Yeah. -Okay.

Now, baby, look, if you do everything I tell you to do,

I'll make sure you get noticed by one of the biggest

fashion houses in the country.

Oh, my God.

What you gotta do is don'tmention my name.

-[Avery] Okay. -All right.

Just stick to the script. That's what you want, right?

God, that's all I want.

I wanna be a big-time fashion influencer.

-That's it. -[Bishop] Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah. That's why I was following you on social media,

'cause I love how the way your thick ass move.

That's why I slid into those DMs.

Mm-hmm. So, you know...

Mm-hmm.

You do everything I tell you to do,

everything's gonna work out all right.

All you gotta do is start following that Jaelyn chick.

Okay.

She does all the PR for Haus of Vicious over there.

So, you know, just start posting commentaries

and make sure you tag her on your posts.

Okay.

Let her know who you are.

Look, I got this, daddy, okay? I got this.

Remember, don't fuck this up.

I won't. I got you.

[chuckles] Mwah.

Now you gonna do what the hell I tell you to do.

And don't come back in here empty-handed, you hear me?

And if I find out

you and ole boy are still fucking around,

then his ass is gonna come up missing.

Fuck him.

Fuck him.

That nigga ain't nothing but a means to an end.

It's me and you against the world, baby.

[Chantel] It's hard to recognize what you need

when you really don't have a frame of reference.

Every person walking wants love.

But most have never truly experienced it

to know what it looks like.

So we accept hurt and pain, then classify it as love

because we don't know any better.

Yes, I could easily say,

"Girl, you know you need to leave this man alone."

But to do that, it would take courage from her.

And it's difficult to be brave

when all you want to do is be saved,

saved from loneliness, saved from heartache,

saved from your past traumas.

The truth is, some of us have to be snatched out,

rescued from dysfunction,

because walking away on our own

means leaving the only love we know.

♪ You and I You and I ♪

[Tia screaming]

Fuck you, Jaelyn!

And fuck you, Chantel! [screams frantically]

Fuck you, Chantel!

-One second. -One second, my ass.

Open this fucking door.

Are you fucking kidding me? What the hell is wrong with you?

[Tia screaming]

What is wrong with you? Is you crazy?

-Open this door! -You dumb bitch!

You dumb bitch!

This is my shit. Bitch, is you crazy?

What the fuck? Get off me, bitch!

[telephone ringing]

[Avery] I don't know how to do this.

[Izzy] I don't know either.

[Both] Haus of Vicious.

Haus of Vicious.

-What are you... -It's that one.

Haus of Vicious. Hold, please.

Look, can you call us back? I'm sorry.

Where's Tia?

I've tried to call her several times this morning

and I keep getting her voicemail.

Yeah, I bet you her aunt's aunt died this time.

Well, I don't give a fuck who died.

I just need these phones answered,

those papers filed, and my damn latte.

Chantel, I'm sorry. It's already 10:00

and I know how much you wanna help the youth,

but she has to go.

She's irresponsible and unreliable.

Izzy, I'm not trying to hear all that

'cause when the bitch is here, she actually works

and she's the only one who knows

how to work this phone system.

-Press that button. -Okay.

Haus of Vicious.

[Automatic Recording] You have a collect call

from the Los Angeles County Jail.

Do you accept...

-Who was that? -Probably Kane's ass.

[cellphone vibrating]

And it works on the virgin.

Good afternoon. Haus of Vicious.

[somber music]

[Izzy] What the hell happened? Why were you arrested?

Girl, are you gonna talk or what?

Everything was just so crazy.

Thank you for bailing me out.

I know we haven't always gotten along

and you don't really like me.

Of course I like you.

And who says we never get along?

You don't have to pretend. I'm not stupid.

I've been working at Haus of Vicious for a year.

I eat lunch alone.

No one has ever asked me to join them.

Y'all didn't even have the decency

to ask me to go out for drinks.

Never asked me anything about myself.

Do you even know where I'm from?

You never even had a real conversation with me.

Tia, you were just so quiet

and doing crazy shit all the time.

-We just... -Ignored me.

Pretend that I didn't exist until you needed

copies, coffee, or a laugh at my expense.

Girl, nobody's laughing at you. Okay?

And, furthermore, I don't need copies.

And you only bring Chantel coffee.

Not me.

So this whole "I hate you" thing

sounds misdirected.

And if you felt like this, why did you call me

to get you out of jail, of all people?

You're my last resort. I don't have anyone else.

All I have is me.

Before I called you, I tried calling the office

to get to Chantel, but someone hung up on me.

I know that was you.

What?

Or was it Ms. Tea Time?

Neither.

Yeah, right.

Look, Izzy, I don't want to argue with you.

I just thought you could relate

since you just got locked up, had your address exposed,

and your good heels stolen.

Girl, you are really trying me.

You abouts to get pushed out my car.

I'm sorry. I'm just under a lot of stress.

The resident manager came to my door this morning,

threatening me.

She attacked me, but I'm the one who got arrested.

She attacked you?

Did you press charges?

[Tia] I couldn't because she lied and said

I hit her first.

Did you?

I would never hit an old lady. I don't even like to fight.

How long has this been going on?

Every since her husband helped me bring in my groceries,

she's been nasty to me like some jealous maniac.

Believe me, her husband is safe.

I don't do old or bald.

Hm, sounds to me like you need to move.

And go where? The rent is cheap.

Yeah, if you like living in a boxing ring.

Yeah, well, that's all I can afford.

I don't make as much as you, so I'm stuck.

Well, what about your family?

They're all dead.

Except for my daddy, and I don't even know where he is.

After my mom and my sister died in a fire, I was on my own.

Oh, my gosh, Tia.

How old were you when this happened?

Fifteen.

And then the state put me in a group home,

but I was only there for a year

before I ran away.

Damn, girl.

I can't believe you went through all of that.

Don't apologize. I'm, I'm fine.

I'll always be fine.

I have an idea.

How about you and I have a girls' night?

Just you and me.

-Really? -Yes. It'll be fun.

Thank you, Izzy.

[sighs]

We'll talk later.

[Chantel] Today has been a shit show.

My entire calendar has fucked off.

This meeting was scheduled for 9:00 am,

and yet here we are at 3:00 in the afternoon.

And you wanna know why?

Because I'm running a goddamn work release program

for jailbirds. Mm-hmm.

First Izzy, and now Tia's ass.

How about I get a heads up next time?

Tell me, who's gonna be next to go to the clink, huh?

I am so embarrassed and disappointed.

I'm running a fashion house, not a halfway house.

What did she just say?

I'm not going there with you.

You know what? I'll wait. I will wait. Yeah.

'Cause that's another thing that I'm tired of.

All this talking that y'all do

while I'm talking, it has got to stop.

It's rude. It's disrespectful.

And it's inconsiderate.

Now, if you're ready to discuss the launch party,

Milan, have the samples come in?

Uh, yeah, we received them this morning.

Good job.

Now I'm gonna need everybody

to be on their best behavior, okay?

So what does that mean?

That means that there will be no drama, no cops.

Because if I have to do this one more time, I just...

What is so damn important on this phone

that you can't listen to what I'm saying?

Come on, y'all, it's like I'm dealing

with a bunch of children. It's so...

Get out. The meeting is over.

Get out!

Why you in my house again?

And what you doing on my computer?

You got food and snacks.

Other than that, I ain't doing shit.

Just, [clears throat] you know, browsing through some stuff.

Like, uh, porn.

-[Milan] Porn? -Mm-hmm.

You expect me to believe you in here, watching porn?

You no I can tell when you capping, right?

All right, man, you caught me.

It's not porn.

It's just some shit I was checking out.

It's nothing too much.

You gotta be the most habitual lying steppinest

nigga of all time, bro.

Have you talked to Mom and Dad, man?

No.

I'm not speaking to them.

[Milan] You know how goofy you sound, man?

They give you any and everything you need.

And you're not talking to them?

And your point?

[Milan] My point is you can't keep

running from your problems, Zay.

I'm not running.

As soon as I'm done with law school, I'm out of here.

Yo, do you hear yourself, man? You sound crazy.

I get it, bro. Mom and Dad let you down.

You found out they not perfect.

Welcome to the real world, man.

I'm sure there's gonna be some shit my son say I fucked up.

But I hope he would open his mouth

and communicate with me

instead of throwing temper tantrums.

If they cut you off the way you trying to cut them off,

bro, you gonna be the one that's fucked up.

What you saying? You think it's all about this material shit?

[Milan] I don't know what it's about.

But I know you still stay in they house.

I know they put money in your bank account.

I know they pay for your education.

You traveled the world because of them.

At a certain point, you gotta wake up, bro.

And in the meantime,

give me my goddamn computer.

You being petty.

As a motherfucker.

Use your momma money to buy your own.

Broke-ass nigga.

This ain't college, bro. Damn.

[music]

[knocking on door]

Well, well, well.

Look who finally came to pay up.

I don't have your fucking money.

Then why the hell you here?

I'm strapped for cash.

But the last thing that I need

is you picking me up off the street

and showing up at my mother's house again,

fucking with me.

I need your help.

I need my money.

Listen, Bishop, Kane gambled away

all of our liquid cash and half of our damn assets.

I don't have it.

But I wouldn't be standing here in your face

if I wasn't in a bind.

Trust me when I tell you,

this the last place I wanna be.

You sure about that?

Nigga. I did not come to fuck you.

Calm down. Ain't nobody trying to fuck you neither.

Ain't no telling where Kane's dirty dick been.

Besides, shit, a nigga need to protect himself.

Good to know you weren't gay for the stay.

You better be glad I like you, Chantel.

Now, I'm gonna let that little shit slide.

Come on. Let's have a drink.

Bishop, I ain't come over here for all of that, okay?

Besides, you be treating me like...

A bitch that owes me money?

Right.

One for you.

One for me.

All right.

Look. Here's what I'm gonna do for you.

I got some valuable information that might just help you out.

Yeah.

Nigga, if you don't say what it is you gotta say...

Kane already settled your debt with me.

Are you fucking serious, Bishop?

So you had me go through all of this?

You should've said that shit when I first got here.

I like seeing you beg.

I remember when you used to beg for the D.

Yes. Yes. Abso-fucking-lutely.

I can't be the only one making money at this table.

I need that. I need that.

Mm, who's your daddy, baby?

All right. Wrap it up, Kane.

You proved your point.

Yo, would you chill? I got this.

Hey, and I'm trying to make sure you keep it.

Yo, don't curse me, all right?

These cards are finally showing me some love.

Don't worry about it.

Yo, matter of fact, we can get that on next one.

I tell you, man, you can't do it.

What are you doing?

Trying to get my money back.

What happened to the money you got from the spot you hit?

Kane. Do not tell me you paid off that bitch's debt.

What do you mean? That's my wife.

Played you out of millions.

What did you want me to do, Mel?

I'm not gonna let them fuck over my family, all right?

You're all that I got.

I can't let nothing happen to you or Chantel.

So I did what I had to do.

I mean, ain't that what you always told me?

No. Oh, no, no.

I don't like all that hugging shit.

But you love me, though.

Yeah, and sometimes I love you too much.

Man, go on and get that bitch, Chantel.

We both know you want her back.
