Welcome to Black Ink!
Hi, Kitty Cat!
Good to see you. Let me see you. Look at how she walk with it.
What a surprise to see this [bleep] Ceaser here
and, look,
he brought his shadow, like Little Ceaser.
What's up? What you all doing here?
I know you own the place. Why she here?

I feel like some of the stuff that has been incorporated
on 125th should be down here.
I feel like both shops should be luxury shops.
The key to having a successful brand
is consistency.
Think about it.
Whole Foods is bourge and fresh as [bleep]

Black Ink is about to be just as fresh,
thanks to Miss Kitty.
So I decided to bring Kit down here
to kinda help you all out. - SKY: Wait.

Does she brand ambassador two-fifth?
Are you the brand that she ambassadors?
- What? [laughs]

My worst [bleep] nightmares are coming true.
This bitch Dutchess has been reincarnated

It's time to become a [bleep] mogul.

And that's Kit's job to make one consistent brand.
For us to get anywhere, we gotta start
getting some order in these mother [bleep].
