01x09 - In-Vision of Privacy

Post by bunniefuu »

Raven's Home was filmed

in front
of a live studio audience.

Levi:
Hey, Tess. Bad news.

Looks like we're taking
the bus home.

Yeah, aunt Chels at the dentist
and my mom's at work

wondering...
where it all went wrong.

Yeah, you guys head
on home without me.

You know, since Nia's out of town,
I'm gonna hang back

and sh**t some hoops.

With who ?

Just a bunch of random kids
from other schools.

No one special.
You wouldn't know them.

Why are you asking
so many questions?

Whoa, take it easy.

Hey, if you're gonna
sh**t some hoops,

we'll play, too.
Levi, you in?

Oh, no.

I avoid balls and gyms
at all costs.

We have history.

Sorry, Booker,
you can't come.

- Why not?
- 'Cause we're afraid you'll dominate.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're afraid
of you raw talent.

Later!

Was Tess acting weird?

Nah, makes perfect sense.

I mean, even kids at other schools
know about my game.

I'm just too good.

Well, that's one theory.

(Raven laughing)

Yep! That's us.

(laughing)

Ladies and ladies, prepare yourself
for the Amazing Levi!

Chelsea:
Ohh!

Thank you.
And a hand for my assistant, Booker.

(clearing throat)

My lovely assistant, Booker.

(applauding)

Behold!
An ordinary grapefruit.

I will now... (struggling)
make it...

disappear.

I wave my magic wand and say
"magic words of your choice"!

And the grapefruit is gone.

Chelsea:
Ooh.

(Chelsea gasps)

sweetheart,
that was a great trick.

All I did was make
grapefruit juice.

Yeah, well,
magical grapefruit juice.

Hey, why don't make
a magic paper towel appear

and clean up my coffee table.

No, I'll get it for you.

It's kind of my job.
I am his lovely assistant.

Booker?
Are you okay?

Yeah, he's probably
just in shock

that he actually volunteered
to clean somethin' up.

(Chelsea and Raven laugh)

That was funny, right?

Oh, No, I was...I was
actually laughing at something else.

- (laughs)
- It was still funny, though.

Booker!
Did you just have a vision?

Yeah, did my mom notice?

Nah, she was pretty
into her own joke.

So what'd you see
that was so funny?

It was Tess coming home
from basketball today.

I...I can't...I can't,
you gotta see it for yourself.

Shh!
This is it, get ready.

I don't know,
it might be me,

but your cheek
this close to my cheek,

(whispers)
just feels right.

- (both laughing)
- That was it. That was my vision.

What are you guys doing?

Watching you snuggle
with your basketball.

I wasn't snuggling,
I was checking the air pressure.

Yeah, it's low.

It was funny in my vision,
and even funnier in person.

So, who's the lucky basketball?

Nobody!

I can't believe you used
your visions to spy on me!

It wasn't on purpose.
You know I can't control my power.

- Maybe you should learn.
- What are you getting so upset about?

It's none of your business.

Just keep your visions
out of my life, okay?

Man, she was mad!

Yeah. That basketball's gonna
get an earful.

- Morning, Rae.
- Hey.

You makin' Booker's lunch?

Oh, what gave it away,
the bread, the peanut butter,

or the fact that I do this
every single day?

Gosh, I think it's the bread.

Man, I can't believe Booker eats
a PB and J sandwich every day.

You'd think he want
some variety.

Oh no, no, no,
I switch it up.

Now sometimes he gets creamy,
sometimes he gets chunky,

and sometimes he gets like
two dollars 'cause I oversleep.

Man, I wish I could give Levi
the same thing every day.

Oh, you can. You just have
to stop askin' him what he wants.

Yeah, but I think it's important to,
you know, give Levi the freedom to choose.

Really show him I care.

Are you saying I don't care?

Of course not, Rae.

- Oh.
- Morning.

Well, there's the most talented magician
in the whole wide world.

Did we watch
the same trick?

Honey, what's wrong?

I can't make my trick work.

What are you talking about?

You made a wonderful,
flat grapefruit.

It was supposed
to disappear.

I'm never gonna
get this right.

Honey, yes, you will.
It just takes practice.

Why don't you go
get dressed for school, hm?

In a minute, Mom.

- Wow.
- Oh. Okay, honey,

just pack up your stuff,
and then do what Mommy said.

- I said in a minute.
- Ooh. He said.

Just one minute,
and then that's it, okay?

Rae, can you just
keep out of it?

It's fine.

Levi, Levi, now your mama told you to
put the magic trick down and go do

what you gotta do.Listen to your Mom.
I'm not gonna tell you again.

- Okay, Auntie Rae.
- All right. Good job.

(clears throat)
I know what you're thinking,

and you're welcome.

Six in a row?
You're on fire!

Ha! That was nothing.

Booker, what are we
doing here?

Look, Tess has a crush on somebody,
and I wanna find out who it is.

But she told us
not to spy on her.

What? Pfft! No!
No, we're not spying.

We just happen to be
standing behind this door,

watching without
her knowing.

Ha-ha!
That's what's up!

You know,
we make a good team!

You think it's that guy?

If you drive the lane
with your left hand,

it'll make it harder to block.

Thanks, Jordan.

There you go.

He just told her how to do something,
and she didn't punch him in the face.

Oh, it's definitely
that guy.

They're actually
pretty cute together.

You know what?
I'll say it.

I think I'm Team Jordan.

All right.I gotta get home.
I'll see you around.

Jordan, wait.

Do you wanna play
one-on-one tomorrow?

Tomorrow, like Saturday?

I'm volunteering at the Golden Meadows
Senior Center in the afternoon.

But you wanna play after?

Like, : ?

Yes, yes, great!
It's a date!

You mean game, right?

Uh, yeah, that's what I meant.
It's a game. Of course.

Yeah, right, game.

He volunteers
at an old folks' home.

Guess I just joined
Team Jordan.

Come on. Let's get out of here
before she sees us.

Tess, I think you're cool,
but I don't really like you that way.

Oh.

Booker?

I just had another vision.

Jordan's gonna break
Tess' heart.

Jordan?

Like, our Jordan?

- (both laughing)
- Booker: Poor Tess.

What are we gonna do?

Tess: Ma, get back
in the tub, I'll get it!

Hey, Booker, what's up?

Listen, I know you don't
wanna hear it, but I had another vision!

It was about you and... Jordan.

- There is no me and Jordan.
- But I saw Jordan about to break..

I don't care what you saw. I told you
to keep your visions out of my life.

I'm just trying to help you.

If I want your help,
I'll ask for it.

So that's a no, then.

(sighs)

(sighs)

(sighs)

What do you want?
What do you want?

What do you want?
What do you want?

What if you knew somethin' bad
was gonna happen to your friend?

How do you know
somethin' bad is gonna happen?

I saw it.

You...you saw it,
but you said it hasn't happened yet.

It-- it hasn't.

You know how sometimes you know
something's gonna happen before it happens?

No, I don't..I don't know what's
gonna happen before it happens.

No, I'm not psychic.

Psychic?
Who said anything about psychic?

You know psychics
aren't real.

They're not! They're not real!
They don't live here!

Psychics? Bein' real in this house?
What?

(laughs)

(both sigh)

S...so... about my problem.

Mm-hm?

I know somebody's gonna
hurt Tess' feelings.

Well, then, you need
to get involved, sweetheart.

But she told me
to stay out of it.

I think you definitely
need to get involved.

Actually, Booker, if Tess
asked you not to get involved,

then you should probably
respect her wishes. Hm?

Hey, Chels.
What you doin'?

Oh, I'm just giving Booker
a different perspective.

That's all.

Thank you, but he doesn't need
a different perspective.

He's good, right?
You gonna go in there,

you gonna handle
your business.

Okay, honey, I really think
you should stay out of it.

I really think you should
stay out of it, Chels.

Really?

- Oh, are you guys fighting?
- Both: No.

- We're not fighting, no.
- No, we're not fighting, we're just having

- a difference of opinion...
-Yes.

...and your Aunt Chels
is wrong.

No, I'm not wrong, no.Your mother and I,
we just agree to disagree.

I never agreed to that.

I hate knowing
that Tess is gonna get hurt.

What's the point of being psychic
if I can't help my friends?

I know, but Tess
won't talk to you.

Maybe she won't talk to me,

but she didn't say
I couldn't talk to Jordan.

I feel like it was implied.

We're gonna go down to the senior center
and talk Tess up.

Jordan won't break her heart
if he knows how cool she is.

Senior Center, huh?

I do like hearing
about the good old days.

How are we gonna
get down there?

Allow me to call
my car service.

Mama, we need a ride!

Okay, remember the plan:
Find Jordan and tell him how great Tess is

- before he meets her at : .
- Got it.

Well, Rae, you talked the boys into getting
involved when they were specifically told not to.

- I hope you're happy.
- I am happy.Thanks, Chels.

Hi, I'm Lawrence.
Lawrence, not Larry.

We have a Larry,
but we don't like him.

He knows what he did.

Are you family
or volunteers?

Oh, no, we're just tryin'
to find Jordan.

- We need to talk to him.
- Yeah, and we're their ride.

Well, you can't just hang out in
an old folks' home. It's creepy.

If you're here,
you're volunteering.

Okay, new plan:
We're gonna bring joy to old people,

and then we'll talk
to Jordan.

Looks like we're volunteers.

Larry, do your job and take
this young man to Mrs. Carlson

and him to Mrs. Kotecki.

Don't side-eye me.
You know what you did.

Look at our children,
look at 'em.

Ahh! Gettin' involved.

Helpin' out the old people
and friends.


-Do you wanna volunteer?
-Nah, I'm good.

That's not like you, Rae.
You love to get involved,

ven when people
don't want you to.

Come on, I've got
the perfect senior for you.

He loves to dance, but do not let him
outta your sight.

His name is Commando Joe.

Ooh.

-So, you're Commando Joe.
-Yeah.

-We're you in the m*llitary or...
-I was not!

This guy doesn't seem like such a handful.
(both laugh)

All right, Joe, we heard
you like to dance,

so I'm gonna teach you how to pop,
lock, and drop it, you ready?

-Okay.
-Okay, so, one, two, three and a half...

-Oh...
-Very good. Right there.

Pop and drop,
now pop it!

Okay, let's stop, let's stop, stop, stop,
stop, stop, stop, stop.

Rae, we're here for Joe.
We should let him decide.

Joe, what do you want to do?

I wanna bust outta here. I wanna get
a tattoo my mother wouldn't approve of.

-Okay.
-That's why you don't give people choices.

(whimpers)

You take it easy,
Mrs. Kotecki.

(nervously laughing)

(chuckles)
You know I let you win, right?

Ha!

Hey, Jordan, what's up?

Uh, hey, do..
do I know you?

Booker, nice to meet you.

So listen, I need to talk to you
about a friend of mine.

Done already? Let's get you
over to Mr. Gomez.

I just need to talk
to Jordan real quick.

Unless Jordan is a -year-old
Cuban man who cheats at checkers,

you're not talkin' to him!

Um-mm.

-Jordan?
-Um-mm.

(coughing)

I should not
have done that.

Have you talked to Jordan
about Tess?

I couldn't even get close
to him.

I know. Every time I tried,
Lawrence stopped me.

All right! Everybody say goodbye
to your volunteers,

activity hour is over.

(groans)

It's almost : .
Time to get ready for bed.

Oh no, Jordan's gonna
go break Tess' heart.

Unless we keep him here.

A new, new plan...

Levi, I need you to do
your disappearing box trick.

But it doesn't work.

I couldn't make
the grapefruit disappear.

You don't need to make
anything disappear.

We're gonna get Jordan in the trunk
so he can't meet up with Tess.

Ohh, the Amazing Levi can definitely
lock a kid in trunk.

Ladies and gentlemen,
you're in for a special treat,

'cause we're extending
activity hour.

Extended activity hour?

Larry, did you do this?

Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo, today
is your last day.

Prepare yourselves for the Amazing Levi
and his disappearing box trick!

(applause)

Thank you! I will need a volunteer
from the audience.

Why, Jordan,
why don't you come on up?

(laughs) I'm actually gettin'
outta here to meet somebody, so..

Oh, don't worry,
it'll be real quick.

As you can see,
an ordinary empty trunk.

Please climb in.

How long is this gonna take?
'Cause I really gotta..

Can you just get in the box?

Okay. Now we just gotta keep him
in there for a while.

Tess will think he flaked,
and she won't get hurt.

But how are we gonna stall
a roomful of old people that long?

Uhhh... easy, I got this.

Who wants to show us pictures
of their grandkids?

(tango music playing)

Amazing, Joe! You're a real natural
at the tango.

That's not even
how you do the tango.

Chels, you have to take the lead
so he knows how to dance right.

Rae, is there really
a wrong way to dance?

Yes!
And you're doing it!

Joe, listen to me, okay? You go slow, slow,
quick, quick, slow.

No, no, no, slow, slow..Joe, you're slow.
You're slow, Joe!

-Come on.
-I mean, come on..This is unbelievable!

-Oh, really, Chels?
-Yeah!

Do you have something to say about
the way I'm teaching Joe?

It wouldn't really matter because you
would just step right in

and teach Joe for me.

I feel like you ladies aren't talking
about dancing anymore.

-Ooh..
-Oh! What?

Chels, if you have something
to say, just say it.

Well! All I'm saying is, maybe Joe wants
the freedom to make his own choices.

All I'm saying is Joe's a little young
to be doing what he wants,

right? You have to show him
who's boss,

so that he doesn't
become a smart-mouth Joe!

I do like a strong woman!

You don't have to worry
about your smart-mouth Joes,

because your Joes
are afraid of you.

(gasps)
My Joes respect me!

What are you two
talking about?

Just admit it, Rae.
You think I'm a bad mom.

(gasp)
Chels! I think you're a great mom.

Well, I think you're
a great mom, too!

Listen, we parent differently
because we have different kids.

Yeah, we do, Rae,
you're right.

Maybe I could be
more stern with Levi.

And I need to learn
to let go.

And I will!

When they turn .

Our Joes are pretty lucky
to have us, Rae.

Yeah.

Where is Joe, anyway?

-(gasp) Joe's gone!
-What?

My bad, my bad!

Oh, no.
I think this is Joe's shirt.

And it doesn't look like
he's in it.

And then you hit send...

and that's how you text
an emoji!

(applause)

It's : . You think we can
let Jordan out?

Yeah. There's no way Tess
is still at the gym.

Excuse me. Hi, have you..
have you seen Joe?

You were supposed to be
watching him.

I know, but we can't find him,
but we did find his sweater and his shirt!

-Yeah, and his pants!
-Yeah!

Oh no, not again.

Open the box!

Ta-da!

(chuckles)

I think I'm done
with magic.

We have a runner.
Of course it's Joe!

That old guy must've let
Jordan out.

We gotta get down to the gym!

-Mama! We need a ride!
-Okay! Okay!

(laugh) Oh...

I'm really glad I came
before you left.

I really like hangin' out
with you.

I like hanging out
with you, too.

Jordan?

There's something I need
to tell you.

I like you.

I like you a lot.

Ohh. Um...

Tess, I think you're cool,
but I don't really like you that way.

Oh.

Yeah, that was..
that was stupid.

Just forget I..Just forget I ever
said anything.

I'm sorry.
Are.. are we cool?

Yeah. Yeah, we're cool.

I'll see you around.

What's the point of being able to see
the future if you can't change it?

Maybe you weren't supposed
to change it.

What are you doing?

Tess doesn't need a psychic right now.
She needs a friend.

Hey.

What are you doing here?

I thought I told you
to stay outta my business.

Uh...I'm not here for you.

I'm just here to play
a little ball.

Hoo! One-nothing.

You're losin' to me.
That must hurt.

Please. I've never lost to you
in my life.

Two-nothing.

You're gonna have to work
harder than that.

Tess, your mom is terrible
at parallel parking.

Yeah, how'd she pass
the driver's test?

Who says she did?

Hey, Booker.

Anytime.

Hey, Mom.

Hey, Boo.
Is Tess okay?

Yeah, she will be.

You guys are really
good friends.

(doorbell rings)

Which one of you has my pants?

Chels, it's for you.

What?
