[bunniefuu]

f*ck.

OFFICER:
Police. Anyone in here?

[Indistinct talking]

ANGEL:
It's something else, huh?

DICKENS:
Rich people.

ANGEL: Yeah.

I don't know, d*ck.

Something doesn't smell right.
I can't put my finger on it.

You got that right.

Did you find anything
over there?

No.

It's clear back there.

Alright, well, make sure
they bag this for me, okay?

Mark it as evidence.

- Alright.
- [Cellphone buzzing]

Hmm. Oh, wow.

What you got?

Looks like we finally got
a break in the Jackson case.

Can you handle her?

Yep. I'm on it.

Alright.
I'll see you later.

Get to talking.

Well, I stopped by
the penthouse yesterday.

You know, I just wanted
to check things out,

make sure it was tidy.

And then I walked
in the bedroom,

and I just saw this
sitting on the bed.

It was just right there.

It's got Syleena and Terrell
written all over it.

Yep, that is exactly...

what I was thinking.

Q: Went in that strip club
several times.

It's always dead.

Definitely a drug cover-up.

So what are you saying, they're
selling drugs to strippers?

Q: Deeper than that.
The owner?

He's definitely doing some sh*t.

This is a lot of f*cking drugs.

We should put this back.

Somebody gonna die
over this bag.

DRAYA: Or...

...you and I can go down
to Assets,

check this sh*t out
for ourselves.

You not gonna stop, are you?

Is that your way of saying yes?

It's my way of saying
I'mma think about it.

I'mma go home, take a shower.

You threw up all over me
last night.

[Laughs]

Wait.
I threw up on you?

Q: Bye, Dr a ya.

[Laughs]

You love me.

Thanks for taking care of me.

Oh, my God.

Thanks for coming.
Do you have what I asked for?

I've got to know who controls
the lease on that penthouse.

You're still paying me, right?

Of course.
I'm a man of my word.

Okay. Perfect.

Looks like the penthouse is
leased to one Dr. Dr a ya Logan.

b*tch!

I can't believe
she set me up like that.

I knew there was something off
with her the other day.

[Clears throat]

[Chuckles]

Okay.

You know, there's more
where this came from

if you help me with something.

What'd you have in mind?

I've got some stress
I need relieved.

What the f*ck is this?

Ay, baby, what did I tell you

about reading
these stupid tabloids?

People get paid for this...

Bullshit!

What are you talking about?

This is Alejandro.

Hm?

He's a jealous little b*tch.

He's always whining
about how little he has.

Ay, Julio,
don't go talking crazy.

I'm going to f*cking k*ll him.

Alejandro, ple...

- Qué?
- [Gina whimpers]

Alejandro?

You're a piece of sh*t.
You know that?

f*cking that little
broke b*tch of a man.

[Gina crying]

What can he do for you, huh?

Nada.

Because I have all the money
and I have all the power.

You dumb wh*re b*tch!

[Crying continues]

Hey, I'm not gonna k*ll you.

Come here. Come here.
Come here, baby.

[Speaks Spanish]

I'm not gonna k*ll you, no.

[Sniffles, crying]

I need you, mami.
Look at me. I need you.

Huh?
You're my wife.

Hey. My trophy.

[Speaking Spanish]

JULIO:
Hey. Listen to me.

You are gonna get
your f*cking a*s out there

and clean up these
g*dd*mn rumors, entiendes!

Hey!
Do you understand?

[Crying]

Julio, por favor.

Don't call my f*cking name!

[Gina sobbing]

You're stuck with me.

Until I'm done with you.

And then he can have
what's left.

Just like he does with
all of my leftovers.

Or you can get a divorce

and then leave
with what you came with.

[Chuckles]

Anyway, I'm going
to the training camp.

When I get back,
your a*s better be in line.

And Alejandro better be gone.

You understand?

- [Whimpers]
- Hmm?

I love you, baby.

[Whimpers]

[Crying]

DRAYA:
[Laughs] I know!

I can't believe it,
but I'm really...

No, listen, I to...

Well, they want to give me
my own segment on his show.

I'll bet Chris wanted to sh*t
bricks when they told him.

[Laughs]
Who cares?

Alright, I'm just happy
our plan is finally working.

Oh, does that mean
you're closing the project?

No. I'm still writing my book,
Crystal, okay?

- One second.
- Dr. Logan, you have some guests

in the orchid room.

Um, I thought my board
was clear for the day.

It was, but it was
a last-minute change.

Okay, I'm gonna
have to coach you

on not adding
last-minute appointments.

I'll be right there.
Which means I have to go.

What can I say?
Got to go, doll.

- [Laughs]
- Yeah, babe.

Oh, sh*t.

f*ck.

Dr a ya, come on in.
Have a seat.

[Both moaning]

[Gasps]
Oh, God, Keith.

Oh, don't stop, okay?

- Like that?
- Oh, God.

Oh, I missed you so much.

JORDAN:
Oh, my God.

[Both moaning]

Oh, God, Keith.

Please, honey, don't stop.
Oh, my God.

I missed you.
I missed you.

Julio had me
on some bullshit errands.

Oh, really?

He knows.

He f*cking knows.

Then let's go.
We can leave now.

[Laughs]

You know that wasn't
part of the plan.

He was supposed to go down
for this steroid bullshit.

If I leave, I leave with nada.

Hey, you don't need
anything but me.

[Laughs]

Yeah?

Can I eat off that?

Can I live off that?

When everything we f*cking have
is Julio's.

God, Gina, you worry
about the wrong sh*t.

If you want this, we can go now.

You think I will go broke again?

You think I will be
like my mother?!

Gina, your mama didn't have
what we have!

And my mama didn't have
what we have!

[Crying] What the f*ck
do we have, for real?

What do we really have?

[Sobs]

He hit me.

It's consistent now.

I can't keep living like this.

[Sobs]

I don't want it anymore.

Alejandro.

Baby.

He will f*cking k*ll you, baby.

Don't do this.

[Sobbing]
Please, baby, don't.

Shh. Shh, shh.

Hey, hey, hey.

- He will k*ll you.
- Shh.

No.

He will k*ll you.

You have to go.

Go.

I never want to see you again!

If you f*cking love me...

[Speaks Spanish]

I don't want to f*cking
see you no more.

Go!

[Keys clacking]

[Keys clacking]

Got them.

Um...

This is quite a surprise.

Yeah, it wouldn't be
had you answered the phone.

I got worried about you.

Yeah.
You know, I have been so busy.

Hmm. I hope being busy

practicing the things
that we discussed.

Working on self-love?

Are you doing some of the things
that you love to do?

I still can't believe
how beautiful this view is.

Fitting for you.

I'm serious.

Look, thank you for, um...

...always taking care of me.

When you let me.

You should let me
take care of you.

Dr a ya? Busy?

Like I said, I've been busy,
Dr. Serena.

Mm-hmm, you know I know
as a therapist

that that's some B.S., right?

Yes.

You are right. Dr. Serena.

f*ck it. I just haven't
made time for you.

DR. SERENA: Right.

So talk to me.
What's going on?

You know, okay?

I know you have seen

or heard about my interview
with CNA a while ago.

I did.

And I'm sure,
like everyone else,

what, you thought
it was pretty shitty.

No. Not at all.

You were blindsided, and I
could see that a mile away.

- You could?
- DR. SERENA: Yeah.

I mean, I know as therapists,
we're supposed to be invincible,

and we're supposed to handle

whatever it is
that comes our way,

but we don't always
get it right.

So have to show myself
some grace.

Yeah.

Well, you know, um,
after that interview,

the media, they...
They went crazy.

And what I thought was going to
be my comeback interview

was just another embarrassment.

Uh, another failure.

DR. SERENA:
Let me ask you.

You did the best you could
for Marissa, right?

Everyone keeps f*cking
asking me that.

I don't know.
I don't f*cking know.

DR. SERENA:
What happened to her was tragic.

It was absolutely tragic,

but it was no fault
of yours at all.

And in order for you to heal,
You got to believe that.

[Scoffs]

Yeah, you know, tell
my publicist and my agent that,

because they threatened
to drop me

unless I came up with
something riveting, you know.

So I came up with a new project,

the Penthouse Project
that I'm working on,

and it was research

where I tap into the minds of
women, you know, in marriages.

But I don't know.

I-I just feel like
they were holding back.

So I had to...

do a little bit of reinforcing.

So how exactly did you
conduct the research?

Yeah, this is
the interesting part.

I actually set up cameras
in the penthouse.

And I, um, invited three women

to use it for their
extramarital affairs.

So you encouraged infidelity?

I guess you could say that,
you know, for research purposes.

I don't know.
You know what?

I just felt like they needed,
like, a little push.

- Well?
- I gave her an ultimatum.

Now we just gonna
have to wait and see.

And...

Mm-hmm?
Take your time.

I started leaking sh*t
to the press

that I thought
would be harmless.

I thought this was
a private hearing.

How did the reporters...

I know a guy.

That's confidential,
not to mention ill*gal.

Q, please, alright?

Look, I needed
something from her.

It's harmless.

And then it sparked
all of this controversy.

And now things, th-they've...
They've gotten a little...

Little bit out of hand.

[Sighs]
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

So how exactly did they feel
about you filming them?

I didn't tell them
I was filming.

Oh. Oh.

Well, then you know
what you need to do.

No, no, I can't say anything.
No, I can't.

The sh*t is too...
Like, I'm... I'm...

I have to stay clean from this.
They can't know.

Dr a ya, you cannot film people
having sexual encounters

without their consent.

I know that, but it's fine.

You see, the only people who
know about it are myself and Q.

- We've got it all under...
- DR. SERENA: Yoo-hoo, and...

And me.

I-I know about it now.

Yeah, but patient-client
confidentiality, so...

DR. SERENA: Yeah,
and there's also a clause

that comes with that law.

When a patient is
an endangerment to themselves

and an endangerment to others,

it's up to me to choose what
I will do with the information.

Okay, Dr. Serena.

No, y-you can't f*cking do that.

- Are you serious?
- DR. SERENA: Yes.

Are you f*cking serious
right now?

- You cannot do that.
- DR. SERENA: I'm very serious.

Yeah.

This is my career.
This is my life.

You can't just blow it up.

Listen, I'm gonna be
very frank with you.

You are a black woman in
a predominantly white industry.

You and I both have
a responsibility

to protect our people.

If we're not protecting them,
then who will?

Look, I hate to say this.

I mean, you're my client.
You're my friend.

Yeah, doesn't really
feel like it.

- You know that?
- DR. SERENA: I love you dearly.

- Do you?
- DR. SERENA: I love you dearly.

But you have got to
let them know

that you've been filming them

and you're continuing
to record them.

Because if not,
then I'll be forced

to report you
to the Medical Ethics Board.

And that's just not...

Pardon the interruption,
Dr. Serena.

Uh, Dr a ya,
we got to take a ride.

Okay.
Um, I'll be right there, Q.

- One... One second.
- [Door closes]

- DR. SERENA: Listen.
- Yeah.

I'm gonna give you a week, okay?

I trust you'll do
the right thing.

[Sobs]

DR. SERENA:
Dr a ya, I'm here for you.

You shouldn't have come here.
This was not a good idea.

Okay?

[Sighs]

JORDAN: I was dying.
Oh, my gosh.

I couldn't believe it.

Got some bubbles
for you b*tches!

Alright!
Mimosas!

Yes.
Alright.

I've been waiting for some
girl time with my babes.

- JORDAN: Yes.
- SYLEENA: You know,

I really feel like y'all
are my girls now.

GINA: You know, seriously,
you know y'all

can't get rid of me, right?

Okay, fine.
I'll play along.

[Laughter]

For you.

- Nice.
- Yeah.

- Your husband's home, huh?
- SYREENA: Mm!

Yes, he is.
And I am so happy. Ohh.

I'm shocked you even here.

My a*s would still be at home
on that d*ck.

- Okay!
- [Syreena laughs]

Trust me, I did not want
to get off of it, okay?

But he had some legal stuff.
He's meeting with his attorney.

So I said, "You know what?
I'mma let you do that."

And I'll be here
with you b*tches.

- Cheers to that.
- JORDAN: Cheers, yes.

- Yes.
- Absolutely.

Hmm. Refreshing.

Refill.
I had a long-a*s week.

And I don't want no f*cking OJ.

Oh. Oh, damn.

It's bottomless, b*tch.
Let's go.

[Laughter]

- I'm not mad.
- Yeah.

I had an ab*rtion.

Whoa.
I was not expecting that.

I-I wasn't, either.

I know.

[Sighs]

When I found out
I was pregnant...

...my plan was to keep it.

I thought it was Alejandro's.

And then he told me
he can't have kids.

SYLEENA: Wow.

I just couldn't see myself
bringing a child into this world

with that b*tch-a*s
m*therf*cker.

You know he slapped the sh*t
out of me today.

You hit him back?

No, but I swear to God,
if I could,

I would k*ll that m*therf*cker
like you would...

No, Gina, leave him
and start over.

I've done it.

- Really?
- GINA: What?

Yeah, left without a trace.

GINA:
Yeah, well, me,

I ain't got sh*t
to my f*cking name if I leave.

So if I leave,
I'm leaving with jack sh*t.

Mm. See, that's why
I keep my sh*t to myself.

'Cause that's why I don't let
these n*gg*s control my sh*t.

I'll be damned if a n*gga
try to control me and I stay.

Listen, f*ck out of here.

Ew.

O... I wasn't talking about you.

Your situation is different.

GINA:
My situation's different?

Why?
Because I make it look easy?

I didn't say it was easy.
I...

It's not easy, by any means.

Okay, listen, listen.

You have to do
what's best for you.

And I think all of us are past
judging each other, right?

I mean, all of us have
had to do some f*cked-up sh*t

because we had to.

[iPads chiming]

This b*tch Dr a ya want
a house meeting or something?

Probably.

What's she saying now?

The f*ck?

Who the f*ck is this
playing on my line?

"We know what you've been doing
at the penthouse.

You have one week
to come up with $50,000,

or we will expose you."

No, for real, who's this?

Yo, this sh*t is wild.
Mine says $100,000.

Mine says 250K.

What the f*ck is going on?

I-I can't be exposed.

Me neither.

GINA: sh*t, my sh*t
already out there.

f*ck Julio's a*s.

I'll just give this sh*t away
like it's charity or something.

N-No. Y'all don't...
You don't understand.

My... My... My husband has no
idea how I got that bail money.

And I have a whole f*cking life
and kids

and not to mention his trial.

W-We're trying to get
through this legal...

Okay, alright.

I don't know
what the f*ck is going on,

but I'm about to call Dr. Logan
and find out.

I told y'all that b*tch was
crazy when we first got here.

Call her a*s.
Get her in here pronto.

[Cellphone buzzing]

[Hip-hop music playing]

What can I get y'all?

Q: A water.

How was your session
with the doc?

I told you I don't want
to talk about that.

We don't have to talk about it.

Look, where were you last night?

Don't want to talk about that.

Can we see the owner?

Sure, I'll go grab him for you.

Follow my lead.

Ain't no way they're making
legit money up in here

- with no business.
- That's what I'm saying.

It's like this
every time I come in here.

I mean, it is daylight.

Although I have found that men

will look at naked a*s
any time of the day.

Damn right.

What's up?
Y'all looking for the owner?

You the owner?

Yeah. Why?
What's up?

Just was expecting
somebody else.

We were thinking...

Actually, we were
looking for a venue

for our engagement party.

[Scoffs]
A'ight. Hold on.

What the hell was that?
I told you to follow my lead.

Not now, but look,
all of these girls

have that same tattoo as Jordan.

Q:
Tattoo right there?

Q, this doesn't feel right.

Come on, let's get out of here.

Now, Q.

I don't do this sh*t, man.

[Cellphone buzzing]

Answer it.

Hey, Jordan.
What's going on?

- [Beep]
- Yo, Mark. I'm headed to the...

MARK: You need to make a detour
to the clinic.

For what?
I already tested for the season.

MARK: According to
the Daily Celebs,

you're poppin' 'roids.

Mark, You know me.

I don't need any of that
f*cking steroid sh*t, okay?

MARK: Then you should pass
with flying colors.

Come on. Knock this out.
It'll take a few minutes.

And then you can hop
over to training.

Okay.
Yeah, I'll be right there.

This f*cking place is free.

I can f*ck for free here.
Like, why not?

Well, hi, ladies.

So we're here.
Tell us what's going on.

Someone's f*cking
blackmailing us.

Threatening to leak information
unless we pay them.

You said these iPads
were secure.

Mm-hmm.

And they are, okay?

They are the best security
that we could find.

Oh, so why the f*ck are
we getting these messages?

Alright, calm down.

You gonna tell me
to calm the f*ck down?

- Q AND DRAYA: Yes.
- Oh, really?

Yes. I want you
to calm the f*ck down, okay?

- JORDAN: Alright.
- DRAYA: Now, if anyone

can figure out who's
behind this, it's Q.

Hmm.

So please just give him
some time.

And your iPads, alright,
so he can check the IP address.

- Appreciate it.
- In the meanwhile, Jordan,

just stay calm, cool.

Don't rock the f*cking boat.

I'll take care of this
and get it back to you today.

- Thank you.
- JORDAN: You do that.

Oh, champagne.

Well, any more?

It's bottomless, b*tch.
I got you.

You look like you
could use another, too.

You know what
you look like, Dr. Logan?

Let me... Let me explain
what you look like.

Okay. Really? This is what
we're doing right now?

This is some bullshit.

[Hip-hop music playing]

Boy, I know g*dd*mn well
you weren't sitting in my seat.

LAVAR:
Pop, what's up, man?

[Laughs]

Yeah, man.

Let me get a good look at you.
How you been, man?

[Indistinct talking]

The streets miss you
out here, Pop.

They always talkin' 'bout
how you the real OG.

Man, they still got love
for you out there, man.

They gonna be happy you home.

- Oh, yeah?
- LAVAR: Yeah, man.

So how's sh*t holding up?

[Sighs]

Man, the Southeast Crew
tryin' to rise up.

Man, this n*gga don't know
what the f*ck he talkin' about.

I got this sh*t under control.

Yeah.
Attitude reflects leadership.

I've been raising him
ever since...

Let me see the books.

So you just gonna
size me up like that?

Hey, I need to know
what sh*t look like.

There you go.

Y-You've been gone
so f*cking long,

I probably need
to teach your a*s

how to read the f*cking sh*t.

Yeah, a'ight.

Okay, okay, okay.

Mmm!
What is this?

Well, I figured I would cook you
a little celebratory dinner

since you were out there
making sh*t happen.

[Syleena chuckles]
Oh.

Smells so good.

Mm. Hey.

- Mmm!
- So how did it go?

Mmm! So good.

Just like you planned, actually.

Yeah?

I was Viola Davis in that b*tch.

Ha!
I knew you would be.

- [Laughs]
- I was like, "$100,000?"

[Terrell laughs]
Hilarious.

Yeah, Gina could care less,
but Jordan was losing her sh*t.

What?
She had the least to pay.

That's the thing.

I don't think it's about
the money with her.

- Really?
- Yeah.

She kept talking about exposure

and how she just didn't want
to be in the spotlight.

You know, I feel like
she's got more secrets

than just this little penthouse.

Mm, well, I'm just happy
it worked out.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Q took our iPads
and checked for the breach,

but you took that SIM card
out of my phone, right?

Yep, you know it.

Alright, so we're good.

I'll have you send a message
to the girls

and tell them to leave
their money at the penthouse

next time they're there.

Right. I got you, baby.

- [Cellphone ringing]
- One second.

Hey, hey, hey, J.
What's up?

J: Hey,
I know it's getting late,

but I just wanted
to say congrats

on getting Lincoln Davidson out.

TERRELL: [Chuckles]
Well, thank you.

You know, it's small work
to a giant.

J: That's right.
Well, look, I'll let you go.

But give Syleena my best.

Okay, I will, dear.
Have a good night.

Oh, J.

[Italian accent] So,
are you ready to go to Italy?

- Okay.
- Okay, Let's go. I got you.

Coming right over here.

[Sighs]

Now, I don't know a lot
about technology.

But I hear you're the man
to talk to.
