04x06 - Show Me a Good Time

[bunniefuu]

[VIBRATING]

[RINGTONE]

JJ: Guys...

I'm calling with a heavy heart.

It's with great sadness

and my deepest condolences

that I must say R.I.P.

to our high-school hallways...

[CHUCKLING] 'Cause it's skip day, baby!

Yo, who's ready to turn up?

ASHER: Dude, it's so early.

Oh, come on, Ash!

Jordan, Jordan?

Spence? Look, Sp...

[HANGS UP PHONE]

GRACE: Dillon, don't forget to pack up

your deodorant for your sleepover.

But make sure you put on some first.

- Ooh.
- What's up, Ma?

- Mmm.
- You might want to tell him twice.

I don't know what it is about
little boys choosin' to be funky.

It's like y'all don't
smell y'all selves.

Ain't got to worry about me no
more. I always keep it fresh.

Well, thank you, Jesus, for that.

I didn't think my
nostrils would make it.

- Come on.
- Ha ha ha ha!

I am headed over to the school

this morning if you
want to catch a ride.

- No school for me. Ditch day.
- Right.

I remember my senior skip day.

We spent the day at Dockweiler Beach,

and then we snuck into
the school at nighttime

to hide our time capsules.

- Y'all made time capsules? What you put in 'em?
- GRACE: Mm-hmm.

We wrote our predictions
of where we saw ourselves

- in the next years.
- SPENCER: Oh.

Y'all aren't doing that?

That's a South Crenshaw tradition.

- Every senior class does it.
- SPENCER: Well, I ain't never heard of it.

They probably got tired of
y'all breaking into the school

- every year and shut it down.
- GRACE: I guess so.

- So what are y'all gonna do?
- SPENCER: Oh, they going to the fair,

but it's Beverly's skip day,
too, so me and Liv gonna hang out.

I got somethin' special planned.

- Oh.
- Mind your business. I see...

- Mind your business, OK?
- GRACE: OK, OK.

[CHUCKLES] All right, young man.

[INHALES DEEPLY] Just
don't be makin' no babies.

SPENCER: You know, it defeats
the whole purpose of skip day

if you're still doing school work.

[SIGHS] I'm sorry, I
just... I got a last-minute

assignment for my job at the
"L.A. Tribune," and I'm just trying

to get it done before we leave.

SPENCER: A'ight, well, you
can finish it in the car

- 'cause we've gotta go.
- [OLIVIA SIGHS]

OK.

Wait. Where are we going?

It's a surprise.

If I guess, will you tell me?

- Is it Palm Springs?
- That's not how surprises work.

- OK.
- [CHUCKLING]

Look, you and me have been
waiting on this date forever,

and now that it's finally here,

I want to make it special...

So put this on when we get to the car.

I mean, it's a little
kinky, but I'm down.

You sure you want our first
time to be in a backseat?

No. It's to stop you from being all

miss investigative reporter
and trying to ruin the surprise.

How long do I have to
wear this stupid thing?

Again with the questions. Just trust me.

Promise it's gonna be worth it.

OK.

- [GASPS] Is it Catalina?
- No.

Oh, you know, I'm just warmin' up.

- OK.
- Oh, it's Joshua Tree.

- It is Joshua... no.
- Yeah.

MAN: ♪ I guess I'll give you
Selma just to talk about ♪

♪ I can't be a novice
now, I'm walking out ♪

COOP: Hey, I'm telling you now,

I am never getting on
that death drop ride again.

OK, I couldn't step foot on
an elevator for, like, a year.

OK, honestly, I don't even care
because I just want my funnel cake

'cause I haven't had one
of those in, like, forever.

- [CELL PHONE VIBRATING]
- COOP: Right.

Oh, hold on. This my lawyer.

Hello?

Yeah, this is Coop.

OK, they need it today?

All right.

Yeah, I'll stop by in a minute.

OK.

- Well?
- It's about Mo's sh**ting.

They filed a motion to have
the misdemeanor charge dropped,

and they need me to
fill out some papers,

you know, 'cause it was self-defense.

You are gettin' real
comfortable with that lie, huh?

What? If...

if I don't stick to my story, Preach
goes to jail, Amina has no parents,

and I'm not living with
that on my conscience.

Self-defense is the easiest way to
wrap this thing up for everybody.

And, yeah, why don't you come?

Come on, and then we can go
to the fair straight after.

Yeah, no, I'm, uh, I'mma pass.

- Why?
- You know, Layla was actually

gonna swing by this
morning, but I told her no

because I thought you and me
were gonna spend time together.

But I guess I just have all
this free time now, right?

Bye.

Good morning, Principal Carter.

Good mornin', Ms. James.

Surprised to see you here this early.

- Dropping off some forms.
- Mm-hmm.

By the way, Spencer's at home sick.

[SCOFFS] Oh, right. So
is every other senior.

- [CHUCKLES]
- I know it's skip day.

Did you know that seniors
don't do time capsules anymore?

What capsules? We didn't
do that at my school.

It's a South Crenshaw tradition.

It's where we wrote predictions
of our future selves?

What was yours?

Oh, well, honestly, I...

- I can't remember.
- [CARTER CHUCKLES]

It was over years ago.

But now I'm curious.

I know we hid them in the wall

in Mr. Rowan's history class.

Hmm. I'm gonna find Billy.

- I need his help.
- You can't be serious.

It's the middle of the day.

There's never a wrong time
for a little adventure.

- [CHUCKLES]
- [SCHOOL BELL RINGS]

Try not to disturb any of
the students that are here.

- [CAR DOOR OPENS]
- SPENCER: OK.

We're here.

Watch your head.

So I can finally take this thing off

and see the breathtaking
views of Laguna Beach?

- No and no.
- Heh heh! Damn.

- Take my hand.
- OK.

There you go.

So excited.

Are you sure that's not
the ocean I'm hearing?

Not unless you got superpowers.

- [CHUCKLES]
- Now, listen,

our first time together
is somethin' special,

so I wanted it to be
somewhere that had meaning.

Oh, wow. Um, we're... heh!

We're here, at the cabin.

Um, didn't we pass a brand-new
hotel a few miles back?

- You were blindfolded.
- You know, or we could,

um, we could just come
back tomorrow, you know?

Listen, if you're having
second thoughts about this,

we can just chill and enjoy the cabin.

- It's not that.
- Then what is it?

- [DOOR OPENS]
- JORDAN: Last one to the dock

is wearing handcuffs tonight!

It's that.

- So...
- ♪ Hi ♪

[SIGHS]

Dude, you said that I
had an open invitation

to use your cabin anytime that I wanted.

That don't mean you're not
supposed to check in with me first.

I am so sorry. I had no idea

Spencer was bringing me here.
I was literally blindfolded.

No, it's romantic, and it's kinda kinky.

- I know, right?
- I just feel so bad.

He went through all this trouble,

and Jordan and I ruined
his surprise for you.

I mean, if anyone's to blame, it's...

Liv's fault, all right? She's the one

who invited us up here
in the first place.

Why would Liv invite y'all
to use my family's cabin?

Well, she thought that we
could use a romantic getaway,

since Simone's leaving
for Bringston soon.

Wait. Why are you guys here? Mm-hmm?

Oh, my God.

You guys were gonna do it

- for the first time!
- Shh! Keep your voice down!

- I feel really bad.
- OLIVIA: No.

OK, look, Jordan and
I, we are not blockers,

- so, girl, we really could just go.
- OLIVIA: No, no.

No way. I mean, leaving
would just make it weird.

I mean, not gonna lie.

I assumed you guys were
saving it for prom night.

- Do I look like a cliché?
- Ha ha ha ha!

Oh, also, speaking of prom,
we're still going, right?

- Yes, of course.
- OK.

Girl, there are two things I
dreamed of since I was a little girl.

- Mm-hmm.
- Prom and my wedding day.

Well, you already scratched one
of those off your list, so...

SIMONE: Well, there I
am, the overachiever.

Ha ha! Jordan is so
excited, it's, like, weird.

He won't shut up about his tux.

That's so cute.

He's all hype about
it. I just, you know,

I want to make sure he
has the prom of a lifetime.

- Oh.
- Shut up.

- "Of a lifetime."
- [BOTH LAUGH]

I don't get it.

I know that we hid those time capsules

in Mr. Rowan's history class.

Look out. Grace James is wrong.

Uh, don't make me hurt you.

- CARTER: Hey, any luck?
- BILLY: No.

Grace, um, uh...

[STAMMERS] Didn't do anything.

- [GRACE SCOFFS]
- BILLY: I think these capsules might have

just moved themselves somehow. What?

CARTER: Yeah, I'm... I'm
not touching that. Heh!

- We still on for tonight?
- BILLY: What's tonight?

- Nosy.
- We're going to dinner at...

- Dinner?
- Yeah, you and Laura should join us.

Oh, I'm sure they have plans.

BILLY: No, no, no.
We're... we're not busy.

We're free. I love
to eat. I love to eat.

I... oh, wait, wait, wait.

I think I know where we
might have hid those capsules.

- BILLY: Girl, come on!
- [GRACE STAMMERS, SIGHS]

JORDAN: You know, most
people don't know this,

but lapels are the unsung
heroes of the tux, right?

There's... there's notch lapels

and there's peak lapels and there's...

There's shawl lapels,
and what these lapels do

- is they can make you...
- You know what?

Think Liv and Simone should probably

be done changing by now,
so I'mma go check on 'em.

Oh, but I... I was just about
to break down the difference

between oval ones and the shawl lapels.

I'll catch it at another time.

All right.

SPENCER: How are you and Simone
gonna leave me on the dock

with Jordan going full-blown Bubba Gump?

- Oh, he's on his lapel run?
- Yeah.

Ugh.

[TYPING]

I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Simone
must still be in the shower,

and I just thought I'd
slip away and squeeze in

a little work while
you guys were relaxing.

You meant to be relaxing, too, with me.

You're right, you're
right. I'll do better.

Good.

In fact, we can start right now.

I mean, we practically alone.

Well, then I suppose we should take

full advantage of that opportunity.

You're damn right.

[VEHICLE APPROACHING]

[AIR HORN BLOWS]

It can't be.

The party has arrived!

[JJ LAUGHING]

OLIVIA: Why aren't you
at Beverly's skip day?

Oh, Gabby was bumming me out
with her itinerary and clipboard.

- Sucked the fun out of it.
- How?

- It was at the beach.
- She wanted us to clean it up.

I mean, I hate trash as
much as the next dude,

and I want the world
to be a cleaner place...

Never pegged you as an environmentalist.

JJ: But skip day is supposed to be fun,

so I ditched them and decided
to bring the par-tay to my peeps.

OK, but how did you know
that we were all here?

JJ: Ah. I activated find-my-phone

on all my bros and lady bros' phones.

- SPENCER: Right.
- JJ: Ha ha ha ha!

So I think we should take out our
phones and turn off that locator.

- OLIVIA: Yeah.
- SIMONE: Mm-hmm.

- ASHER: It didn't look like she was kidding.
- PATIENCE: Stop!

- No! Ha ha!
- COOP: What's up, y'all?

- PATIENCE: Crazy.
- ASHER: Excellent, Coop.

COOP: What's up, Layla? What's
up, babe? You ready to roll?

PATIENCE: Uh, actually, me and Layla

were just talking about the tour, so...

LAYLA: Uh, yeah. Patience k*lled it.

A few promoters have already reached out

- asking if she can do some summer dates.
- COOP: That's dope, bae.

But, seriously, we should get going,
unless you want to miss the fair.

Uh, same with us, Layla, if
we're making it to beach day.

Mmm.

Uh, you know, actually, I'm good.

What happened to funnel cakes?

- PATIENCE: I'm good.
- [CELL PHONE VIBRATES]

- COOP: Y'all give me a minute.
- PATIENCE: Mm-hmm.

What's up, Spence? Shouldn't
you be a little busy right now?

Yeah, you would think,
but change of plans.

How's you and Patience's skip day going?

I had to go handle some
business with my lawyer,

and now she's giving me
attitude, so not like I planned.

Y'all should just come up here.

- To the cabin?
- Yeah.

I mean, what happened to
your little romantic getaway?

Ha ha ha!

It got away.

COOP, CHUCKLING: I'll
see you soon. All right.

[PATIENCE CHUCKLES]

Oh, were you, uh, were you
talking to your attorney again?

It was Spencer.

- He invited you and I up to the...
- ASHER: The cabin.

COOP: Heh! Wait, how'd you know?

JJ ON PHONE: 'Sup, my friends?

Hey, skip day in the
woods is about to be lit!

- LAYLA, LAUGHING: Oh, my God.
- PATIENCE: What?

I got to go. Heh heh! Bye.

- PATIENCE: That's y'all friends.
- [LAYLA LAUGHS]

OLIVIA: Jordan and Simone
already have the side room.

Uh, JJ, you can take the sofa bed,

- and we'll take the room in the back.
- [CAR HORN HONKS OUTSIDE]

Oh, snap.

I told Coop she and Patience
could take the couch.

That's probably them now. My bad, bro.

OLIVIA: Um, Coop and
Patience on the couch,

uh, there's a sleeping
bag in the closet,

- so JJ can take the floor.
- [DOOR OPENS]

PATIENCE: Hey, hey, hey.
What's up, what's up?

- COOP: Yo, yo.
- OLIVIA: Hey.

Got room for two more?

Well, I am not sleeping on the porch.

[SCOFFS]

You know, I ain't really trippin' on it,

but when I told you you should come up,

I thought it was just
gonna be you and Patience.

COOP: Look, so did I.
Patience invited them.

SPENCER: A'ight, well, let's just
hope it ain't like the last time

we was all out here together.

Yeah, you try to break up with me again,

I'll burn this place down.

- [BOTH LAUGH]
- All right, good people,

I present the new and
improved port-a-party...

[CHUCKLES]

The port-a-party-mobile.

[LAUGHING]

- JORDAN: Bro.
- [JJ CHUCKLES]

- ASHER: What?
- JJ: Yep, yep.

Ha ha ha! Uh, but wait!

[BRITISH ACCENT] There's more. Ha ha ha!

- ASHER: Oh, boy. Jeez.
- JJ, NORMAL VOICE: Ah.

[JJ AND JORDAN CHUCKLE]

It's time to start bouncing.

[FLIPS SWITCH, CHUCKLES]

[AIR HISSING]

Oh, man.

- [JORDAN CHUCKLES]
- You know, I thought it would pop up

like a life raft, but,

- ah, y'all get it.
- JORDAN: Yeah.

JJ: Yo, it's time to turn up!

- LAYLA: Already ahead of ya!
- JJ: Oh!

- JORDAN: Will it ever be like this again?

I mean, the jokes,
all of us hanging out?

- ASHER: I don't see why not.
- JORDAN: Well, we're all graduating

and going off to college soon.

LAYLA: OK, way to bring us all down.

JORDAN: No, I just
mean I don't ever want

to ever forget this,

us.

SPENCER: You know, my mom was
saying how, back in the day,

the South Crenshaw seniors
used to write predictions

for where they saw
themselves in years,

bury it in a time capsule.

Wait, that's actually...
Like, a super-cool idea.

LAYLA: Yeah. Hey, we
should totally do our own.

JJ: Your boy will take it from here.

I'll record everybody's predictions

and put 'em all on a thumb drive.

We'll do years, though.

OK. OK, then,

in years, we can meet
up back here and dig it up.

Heh! Oh, this is gonna be so dope!

Good thing I brought my lighting kit.

- Heh heh!
- Oh, no. Did we make a mistake?

Is JJ gonna overdo this?

JJ, CHUCKLING: Oh! I forgot
I brought my drone. Nice!

Great. Yeah, he's about
to JJ the hell outta this.

- OLIVIA: Yeah.
- JORDAN: Buckle up, kiddos.

GRACE: We've checked
everywhere it could possibly be.

You'd think we would have left
some kind of a clue behind.

- GRACE: Right.
- LAURA: Hey.

- BILLY: Hey.
- LAURA: Is everything OK?

- I've been texting and calling.
- BILLY: Mmm.

[KISS] We're still looking for this, uh,

- this capsule.
- Uh, what's all this?

GRACE: These are capsules
from other classes,

- like that one over there is from ' ...
- BILLY: Mm-hmm.

GRACE: And that one is ' .

Oh, this one has a fooey cake...

- BILLY: Ha ha!
- LAURA: And a joint.

GRACE AND BILLY: Class of ' .

LAURA: Well, I don't
want to be the fun police,

but, you guys, we do
have dinner reservations.

Oh, no, we pushed back,
uh, an hour, so we're good.

These capsules have to be
somewhere on school property.

- I need y'all to focus, think back.
- BILLY: OK. Yeah.

- [LAURA SCOFFS]
- CARTER: What?

We didn't have skip day
at my boarding school.

Well, you know, if you
guys have looked everywhere,

and you can't find it,
maybe it's time to give up.

BILLY: Excuse me.

Don't you ever say that.

- We're Chargers.
- And Chargers never say die.

- BILLY: OK?
- CARTER: Mmm.

OK, well, could you guys speed up

the one-eyed Willie
treasure hunt? I'm starving.

- GRACE: You know who would know?
- BILLY: Hmm?

Uh... no!

- LAURA: Oh, no.
- BILLY: No, she's not gonna be a part of this.

- [LAURA LAUGHING]
- BILLY: No. No.

JORDAN: Don't even get me
started on the buttons, OK?

- The buttons are...
- JJ: Oh, come on, Coop.

I want to use the drone to come in high

and push in on your prediction.
I just need one more take.

Well, you don't you take your ass
to somebody else and do it with them?

- [SIMONE GIGGLES]
- JJ: What are you all up to?

OLIVIA: Jordan was just telling
us about his tux for prom, again.

SPENCER: There might be
a new drip king in town.

JJ: Whoa. I'm the drip
master of the universe.

- Check me out.
- ASHER: Wow.

- PATIENCE: That's hot.
- JJ: Dolce & Gabbana!

- ASHER: More like, uh, Dolce & Garbage.
- [ALL LAUGH]

JJ: Whoa, ho ho. Oh, you
think yours is better?

I'm sorry. What is happening right now?

ASHER: As a matter of fact, ahem.

- JORDAN: Yep.
- ASHER: Come on.

- JJ: It's good. Good.
- JORDAN: Ah, that's right.

It's not bad, but listen up, everybody.

Now that you heard from the rest,

it's time that you hear from the best.

[IMITATES RECORD SCRATCH]

- Please, don't ever rhyme like that again.
- [ALL LAUGH]

SIMONE: Show 'em what
you workin' with, baby.

We gonna be the best-lookin' at prom.

- Bam! Y'all see that?
- SPENCER: I'm a fan.

- I'm a fan.
- JORDAN: You get it. He gets it.

- JJ: It's pretty good, actually.
- PATIENCE: Uh, Spencer, where's yours?

You're lookin' real quiet.

SPENCER: Ain't nobody running
around with pictures of they clothes

in their phone. Y'all can have that.

COOP: OK, boy, stop. You know damn
well you got a picture of that tux

in your phone. You done had it
since we was kids, so stop frontin'.

- I don't even know what you talk... bam.
- JJ: Oh, ho!

- He had it!
- [RINGTONE]

PATIENCE: Right as he show
us, like, he's so dramatic.

JJ: Ha ha ha! Yeah.

OLIVIA: Babe, that tux is only
gonna match one of my dresses.

- You got more than one dress?
- Yes.

I mean, we're going to two proms...

South Crenshaw and Beverly.

SPENCER: You can't wear
the same dress to both?

- OLIVIA: Mmm, no.
- PATIENCE: No.

Hey.

Everything OK?

That was my tennis coach. [SIGHS]

He wants me to play in this high-profile

tennis tournament in Phoenix.

Wait, that... that's
a good thing, right?

It's a great thing.

It'll increase my chances
of making the Bringston team.

OK, so wh-what's the problem?

It's the same weekend as prom.

[DISTANT LAUGHTER AND
CHATTER CONTINUING]

Simone should be getting
back from her walk by now.

- It's dark outside.
- Sure she's fine. Just give her a minute.

Man, can you believe that we're
all gonna be in college soon?

Uh, well... heh! Not all of
us. I'm taking a gap year.

Wait. What? You're...
you're not going to college?

Well, people go to college to
figure out what they want to do,

and I'm already doing it, so...

Oh, OK. I guess you were always
just so dead-set on college.

And now I'm not. [CHUCKLES]

Hmm.

What?

It's just...

Is everything OK, Layla? I mean, you...

You've just kind of been
different these last few months.

Oh, OK, that's not vague at all.

OK, well, you've been super-invested
in your producing career,

which is great, and you
hang out with us, but you...

you keep us at a bit of a distance,

- and then you slept with Asher, which is...
- LAYLA: Oh,

I'm sor... I'm sorry. How
do you even know about that?

And you know what, Jordan?

How many one-night stands have you had?

Right. OK, so if you're
done judging my life...

I'm not judging you, Layla,
I'm not, OK? I just...

- I'm just trying to look out for you.
- Oh, OK.

Well, I'm looking out
for myself just fine,

and that distance thing you
were talking about earlier?

It's called boundaries,
OK? And it's a good thing.

Excuse me.

JJ: Oh, girl, I heard you
did your thing on tour.

- Yeah, I did. It was dope.
- Ha! Yeah, she was amazing.

- The audience could not get enough of her.
- JJ: Oh, snap!

- We got our very own Beyoncé. Ha ha ha!
- PATIENCE: No, no,

I am not Beyoncé. Mm-mmm.

- JJ: Peyonce.
- LAYLA: Ha ha ha!

JJ: No, that is so good!

Sounds like Patience
is having a good time.

[SCOFFS] I ain't seen her this
happy since she got back from tour.

It's skip day.

We vibin'. Everybody's feeling good.

Nah, it's more than that.

I mean, things been
feeling off between us.

I think she's still mad that
I ain't go with her to Vegas.

Y'all just need the
time to find your rhythm.

You'll see.

If I'm keepin' it a buck, man, it's like

she don't even want to be around me.

Like, today, it was supposed
to be me and her coming up here,

but she turned around and
invited Layla and Asher.

Coop, y'all's entire relationship

has been built on communication.

You need to talk to her.

Let her know how you feelin'.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER AND LAUGHTER]

- BILLY: We don't need to hear this.
- GRACE: Heh!

- LAURA: Yeah.
- DENISE: Hey, you guys.

- BILLY: Oh.
- GRACE AND LAURA: Hey!

[DENISE GIGGLES]

BILLY: Hey. You didn't have to
come. You could have just texted us.

LAURA: Uh, what Billy means is that

- you didn't have to bother if you had plans.
- BILLY: Plans.

DENISE: Oh, girl, please.

- I was just home relaxin'.
- CARTER: In that outfit?

DENISE: Hey, if you stay ready,

- you ain't gots to get ready.
- BILLY: Uh...

DENISE: Now, y'all two know
good and well you got no business

trying to open these time capsules
before our -year reunion.

- GRACE: Yes, ma'am.
- DENISE: Just hardheaded,

and that is exactly why I came back

after our skip day and
hid them somewhere else.

- GRACE: Ah! I knew it!
- BILLY: What?

Be happy I was bored and
felt like being nosy tonight.

LAURA: Oh, my... A treasure map?

You've got to be kidding me.

Got it. Follow me.

And try to keep up, Billy B.

Yes, ma'am.

[GRACE AND DENISE CHUCKLE]

SPENCER: There you are.

- [OLIVIA SIGHS]
- SPENCER: For real?

In the dark?

I know what this looks like, OK?

- But I can explain.
- SPENCER: Nah.

I'm done pressing you about this.

You got to finish your
work. I'mma leave you to it.

Well, I thank you for that, but, um,

that won't be necessary because...

- [BEEP]
- I just pressed send...

[CLEARS THROAT] Which means not only

am I free and clear to enjoy

- the rest of my skip day and my man...
- Mm-hmm.

Do you hear that?

Hear what?

Absolutely nothing.

Everyone's inside,

and we're all alone.

- You mean right here?
- Ha!

- Now?
- No, well, not here.

There's a blanket and a tent

and some privacy right down that way.

You ain't gotta tell me twice.

JJ: Yo! Campfire time! Whoo!

- [OLIVIA SIGHS]
- ASHER: Hey, yo, JJ, JJ.

JJ: What's up with that?
Oh, you know. You know it.

JORDAN: Hey. Uh, we
still camp-f*ring, right?

Yeah, we are.

[SIGHS] Can we talk?

Do you mind if we make
it a walk-and-talk?

I just... I really don't want
JJ to eat all the s'mores.

You know how he gets.

Right. Yeah, yeah. Um...

Hey... hey.

What's up?

I can't go to prom anymore.

What? What are you talking about?

It's prom. It's our last
prom, Simone. I mean,

you can't miss that.

A tournament came up,

and, Jordan, I have to go.

It could make a difference at Bringston.

- Hmm.
- I'm sorry.

I know how much prom means to you.

It's not just about prom, Simone.

It's about the elephant in the
room that we've been avoiding.

We spend every waking moment together,

acting like everything is all cool.

So what are you saying, we
spend too much time together?

No. I'm saying that we
can't keep ignoring the fact

that the clock is ticking, and
you're leaving for Bringston soon.

Why can't we just live in the now?

'Cause it feels like
I'm already losing you.

SIMONE: You're not losing me.

We'll make it work.

Oh, sure...

I just don't see how.

CARTER: Are those fooey cakes?

- DENISE: Oh, God.
- LAURA: I told you guys I was starving.

- GRACE: Ha ha!
- CARTER: Ugh.

DENISE: That's nasty.

LAURA: Oh, my God. OK,
let's hear these predictions.

GRACE: OK, OK, OK, I'll go.

All right, uh...

"In years,

after dedicating my early years

to successfully building up
my Crenshaw community... "

- BILLY: Ooh.
- LAURA: Mm-hmm?

GRACE: "I would have set my
sights on a higher calling,

and will be starting my first term

as the first black and female president

of the United States."

CARTER: Mmm, sounds like you
wanted to be the next Barack.

More like Barack got
to be the first Grace.

- LAURA: Oh, yeah.
- GRACE: That part.

- LAURA: Ha ha!
- GRACE: Anyway, let's, uh,

let's do Corey.

DENISE: Wait!

[SIGHS]

Go ahead.

"In years,

Corey James will be a first-ballot,

hall-of-fame running back,

after a long career that includes
shattering Walter Payton's

all-time rushing record,

and Corey will have a nice, phat mansion

in Bel Air like the Fresh Prince."

[ALL CHUCKLE]

GRACE: And, like a true pro athlete,

he refers to himself
in the third person.

- BILLY: Hey, I resent that.
- [DENISE CHUCKLES]

Now we're gonna hear
from the Billy Baker.

- LAURA: Ha ha!
- CARTER: "The."

" years from now, hopefully,

my soul mate would have realized

that I am the love of her life,

and we'll be married with children
and have the perfect family."

Mmm.

- Aw. That's really sweet, babe.
- DENISE: Mm-hmm,

- and awkward as hell.
- Hmm.

I'll go next.

Ahem. "Mark my words.

In years, I'll be livin' large

with kids and married to that sweet,

sexy, chocolate hunk of a man...

- Morris Chestnut."
- LAURA: Ah, ha ha ha!

Morris Chestnut?

Well, at least I got
the " kids" part right.

GRACE: Girl, if you would
have snagged Morris Chestnut,

you would be in a hall
of fame of your own.

- DENISE: Know. Ha!
- LAURA: And let me tell you something.

That man is still fine.

- BILLY: OK, settle down.
- LAURA: Right?

I've met him, and he's
m-m-much shorter in person.

- LAURA: Oh, is he?
- BILLY: Yeah.

- DENISE: Oh.
- CARTER: Thank you, Billy.

- GRACE: Hater.
- DENISE: He's a hater.

- BILLY: Easy.
- CARTER: It's not hate.

I'm done, man!

LAYLA: Ah, JJ finally broke ya, huh?

Made me do takes, .

PATIENCE: Oh.

ASHER: He's in his, uh, party-mobile
right now with Spence and Liv,

putting all their predictions together.

[LAYLA AND PATIENCE CHUCKLE]

Hey, Patience,

everything OK between you and Coop?

Yeah.

Why?

Nothin' like a small
cabin to make it obvious

when two people are avoiding each other.

LAYLA: Mm-hmm, and there
was that passive-aggressive

whatever-that-was at
Slauson café earlier.

I don't really want to talk about it.

I just want to have fun

with my friends tonight and just chill.

OK, so it's none of my business, but

as someone who once sucked at
communicating in my relationships...

- LAYLA: I can vouch for that.
- ASHER: Hey.

- PATIENCE: Ooh! Heh!
- LAYLA: Sorry.

Heh heh!

Look, don't let it
fester, whatever it is.

You love her, so talk to her.

[CELL PHONE VIBRATES]

- JORDAN: Hey, baby.
- SIMONE ON PHONE, SEDUCTIVELY: Hey, sexy.

What are you wearing?

What are you talking
about? You just saw me.

Why does your voice sound
like that? Are you...

You comin' down with something?

Pretend I didn't and
describe what you're wearing.

Sweats and crewneck?

It's getting kind of chilly out.

I need to put a jacket on before
my voice starts sounding like yours.

Well, I'm all alone in this big,

lonely bed,

wearing your t-shirt

and your favourite black thong.

The... the lace one?

Mm-hmm and I'm just
sitting here imagining

you sitting here with me,

holding me,

and rubbing your hand

all the way up to my...

To what?

Uh, up... up to your what, babe?

[NORMAL VOICE] And that's
how we'll make it work.

- JORDAN: Yeah.
- [SIMONE CHUCKLES]

- Yeah? [KISS]
- Ha ha ha ha!

- Want to go lay down?
- [CHUCKLES] Oh, now you want to go lay down.

[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]

Hey.

What's up?

We really need to talk.

I agree.

Do you mind if I kick things off?

Sure. Go ahead.

Since I got sh*t,

some things have changed.

I mean... you don't even
look at me the same no more.

Uh, no.

Things have been different
ever since you sat up

in that hospital and lied to the police,

just putting yourself right
back in the middle of the drama.

But you already know
why I had to do that.

I do, and I get it. You...

Trying to keep Preach out of prison

and do right by him, you know?

But you have to understand that

you're end game for me.

Like, I'm fully invested,

and every decision you
make affects me now.

You're end game for me, too.

Then, damn, Coop, I need to feel that.

You don't feel like you're
my number-one priority?

Why would I? You lie to the cops,

making me complicit

by default 'cause I was
standing right there.

You practically moved in with Preach,

helping him raise his daughter.

Yeah, you picked them over me

when I needed you to be with me on tour.

I really tried to understand all of it,

and through it all, you barely even...

You barely even talked to me.

I don't know, Coop.

You just been different.

And I miss the old one,

like, the one that
makes me feel safe and...

makes me feel loved

and secure and...

Even while rockin' her
stupid, little pajama onesies.

You're right,

and I'm so sorry.

The Coop you love is
still in here, I swear,

and I'm busting my ass to find
that part of me again, and I will.

I just need to know that...

I need to know that you're in my corner

and that you're still willing
to weather the storm with me.

Well, like I said...

I'm here,

and I'm fully invested.

[FIRE CRACKLING]

Relationships are hard.

Tell me about it.

You think we put too
much pressure on ourselves

with this whole romantic-getaway thing?

Probably, and it's pressure
that we don't need 'cause...

I mean, we're actually
in a really good place.

Our communication's on point.

You're no longer leaving for Ohio.

There's absolutely no need to rush.

We got all the time in the world.

Let's get outta here,

go back to my crib,

and have one of our patented
Spencer-Liv movie nights.

I am game.

[CHUCKLES]

- What about them?
- Oh, I think they'll be fine.

- Heh!
- Let's go.

Ah. Let's go.

LAURA: I'm sorry your
prediction came up short.

- Are you sad?
- BILLY: Short? Oh, no.

My prediction was spot-on.

After a rough patch, uh, my soul mate

did realize that she
was the love of my life.

Now we do have a perfect family

- with two beautiful children.
- Mmm.

CARTER: Jasmyn, she's
at a, um, sleepover,

so I don't have to rush,
and I can see you home.

Or... maybe we can go on
a late solo dinner date?

Well, Dillon is also at a sleepover,

and Spencer is enjoying a skip day, so

I vote for the late solo date part.

Your place or mine?

- Mmm. I would say that...
- Mmm.

CARTER: Oh, uh, yeah.

- GRACE: Bye. Good night.
- BILLY: All right, now.

- CARTER: See you later.
- [BOTH CHUCKLE]

[POWER DRILL WHIRS]

BILLY: I can't believe you
travel with a drill in your purse.

DENISE: I told you, if you stay ready,

- you ain't gots to get ready.
- [BUZZ]

- [CLOSES LOCKER DOOR, SIGHS]
- BILLY: Fine.

DENISE: Well, this trip down memory lane

has been one of the best
nights I've had in a long time.

DENISE: I appreciate y'all
for lettin' me join in.

- BILLY: Sure.
- LAURA: Oh.

Hey, where you think you're going?

- DENISE: Home.
- BILLY: Mm-mmm.

- You're gonna eat dinner with us.
- LAURA: Come on.

- DENISE: Really?
- BILLY: Yes,

this night was a huge
success because of you.

And by the way,

you are way out of
Morris Chestnut's league.

- LAURA: Ha ha!
- Don't you make me cry, Billy B.

All right. Come on, y'all.

Is he high?

- [DOOR OPENS]
- LAURA: No,

but we're about to be,

thanks to the class of ' .

- Ooh, puff-puff pass.
- Come on.

Hold up. These people who just showed up

to the island been watching
these couples the whole time?

Yup, and then they can, like, swoop in

and know which couples to target
because they've seen their weaknesses.

- That is wild.
- Ha ha!

- We can watch something else.
- SPENCER: No.

I mean...

- it's cool. It's... whatever.
- OLIVIA: OK.

It's gettin' pretty late anyway.

I should go before your mom gets home.

Nope, she just texted me,

says she's spending
the night at a friend's.

Oh... OK, Ms. Grace.

Chill with all that. Chill, chill.

Oh...

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

So I know...

We agreed that,

you know, we wouldn't rush things
and we're gonna take it slow.

Yeah.

And we have been crushing
on each other for two years.

Things can't get much
slower than that. [CHUCKLES]

And we do have the house to ourselves.

We're finally alone.

You're absolutely right.

There's absolutely
nothing left to wait for.

We have everything we need right here,

in this moment.

Yup, over by the, uh... big tree.

How will you remember which one?

Trust me.

I'll remember.

JJ, VOICE-OVER: Ready and action.

Where do I see myself in years? Um...

Somewhere, being a boss...

no, wait. I'm already
a boss, so, um, a mogul.

Um, maybe even

with my own little girl,

having the kind of
relationship my mom and I had.

ASHER: Since I lost football,
kinda stopped looking too far ahead.

You know, I'm just
gonna live in the moment,

see where that takes me.

JJ: All right, Coach.

JJ, VOICE-OVER: I'll be...

The number-one influencer in the world,

yeah, chillin' on my space yacht

with Jeff Bezos. Ha ha!

Hopefully, years from now,

I'll still be able to
pull this group of friends

together for more moments like this.

Who knows?

Maybe by then, they'll realize
what I bring to the table and...

Take me seriously.

- JJ: Adiós, amigo. Ha ha ha!
- PATIENCE: Vaya.

COOP, VOICE-OVER: And where
do I see myself in years?

Somewhere, doing somethin' fly

with my girl Patience by my side.

PATIENCE, VOICE-OVER:
I honestly don't...

I don't know what the future holds.

JORDAN: Hey, babe.

Come on, let's get going

a life that makes my father proud.

pee-wee league football team...

And being an asset to my community.

Mmm.

[BIRDS CHIRPING OUTSIDE]

Mmm. I should get going.

Why?

My mom's not gonna be
home for another hour.
