There'’s a cop on the line that has the video
of Vanessa kicking Kalinda Walters'’ ass.
NIA: There'’s a tape?
Who said I got her pregnant?
Oh, so you knew she was with child?
-Are you glad she'’s dead, Mrs. King? -No comment.
-A gun, Marques? -Want to help me pick out a combination?
I hope you don'’t think I had anything to do with that.
No, we'’re not saying that at all, but...
-No judgment, girl. -...we understand.
-We got you. -Cheers.
And we'’re gonna need some more champagne.
-Like the most expensive champagne that you have. -What are you doing?
It'’s the perfect crime. They'’re rich.
They won'’t even look at the bill.
SUSIE Q: Got a call about a gig. Catalina Island.
That'’s too bad you can'’t make it.
-No, girl, I just said I could meet you. -No worries.
I'’ll catch you later.
LAILA: Where'’s Susie?
She ripped off one of my clients.
You are lucky they didn'’t kill you, too.

Hey, babe, can you turn that down?
Queen?
Vanessa!
Yes?
It'’s 8:00 in the morning, babe.
Oh. I'’m sorry. Did I wake you?
[sighs] You know, it'’s been so crazy.
I'’ve been doing everything in the house, and
trying to work around your sleep schedule, it'’s--
it'’s been a little bit of a challenge for me.
Wh-why are you even doing this? We have people for this stuff.
[chuckles] Usually we do, but
everyone'’s afraid of the paparazzi.
[sighs] You want me to dosomething?
No-no-no-no-no. Go. Go back to bed and relax, babe.
You know, take care of your leg.
Obviously, that'’s the most important thing right now.
[doorbell rings]
Oh! I'’ll go get the door.
-[Deja crying] -Oh. And when I'’m done with that,
-I'’m gonna go take care of my daughter... -I'’ll get mydaughter.
Okay. You do that.
[whispers]: He gets on my damn nerves.
-[baby crying] -Hey, baby, the nice parent'’s here.
VANESSA: Oh, come on in. [sighs]
Well, thank you for bringing this food.
-You'’re welcome. -Of course.
So how are you guys holding up?
We'’re good. Uh, Marques is upstairs
spending some time with Deja.
So we'’re just enjoying our little
-extra family time. -That'’s sweet.
That means she'’s about to kill him.
Oh, girl, I know all about it.
When Dante had strep throat back in 2016,
-we were stuck in the house for weeks. -Ooh.
People were saying that it was Ebola, swine flu, cancer,
I mean, you name it, the rumors were just going on and on.
[whispers]: And you didn'’t have a dead girl to deal with.
-Ginger. -I'’m just saying,
it'’s a lot of pressure.
We'’re actually good. You know?
We'’ve got this whole thing under control.
Good. I'’m happy to hear that.
That'’s a really good attitude to have.
But... in the event that things do get crazy,
we brought you something. Let'’s see, here...
What'’s-- What is this?
Well, it'’s just a little offer we got on the winery.
[singsongy]: For ten million dollars.
Wait-- On the winery?
I-- We'’re-- We'’re not selling, are we?
Well, I mean, we weren'’t planning on it,
but a couple of investment companies got in touch with us,
and... they want to buy.
And our lawyers looked it over.
It'’s totally legit.
And it is not often that you get
more for something than you put in.
[quietly]: It'’s a really good deal.
And it'’s super simple. You just sign where the stickies are.
Ginger, I'’m sure it'’s really simple,
but to sign something that I haven'’t looked at
would make me lazy and stupid.
[whispers]: Okay, uh, are you okay?
Yes, Jackie, I'’m fine.
Okay. Look... [chuckles] Vanessa,
I know that things are... bad
right now. But sometimes,
when God closes one door, a window opens.
This is just a test, and you have to be
strong to get through it.
And when you do come out on the other side,
you may just need a little something...
of your own.
[Jackie clears throat]
[chuckles] Don'’t try me.
[chuckles] Just look it over.
-See what it'’s all about. -Absolutely.
-But we can ensure you... -For sure.
It'’s a really good deal.
-We'’ve had the best attorneys look it over... -I went to law school.
We'’re just trying to look out for you.
I also understand you'’re always trying to look out for me.
Ten million dollars. S-- Okay, we should...
MJ: Oh, yeah, baby.
-I feel my hands itching already. -[line ringing]
This story about to make us some money.
I think I'’m gonna start looking in Studio City.
It'’s kind of early in my career to go full WeHo.
Hey! It'’s your girl Laila.
-Hello? Earth to boss lady. -I am on the phone.
-[line ringing] -You know she in hiding.
You'’re gonna have to go over there.
Hey! It'’s your girl Laila.
It took me two hours to get to Boyle Heights this morning,
-and she ghosted me. -Vanessa King lives
in Boyle Heights now?
What? No. I'’m talking about Laila.
Laila? Do you not see this evidence wall?
Laila said her and Kalinda
worked for that woman, Roxanne Wood.
And now another one of Roxanne'’s girls is missing.
Huh. So you think Roxanne did it?
I don'’t know. It'’s just one hell
-of a coincidence, though. -And Laila told me
that the girls never know who they'’re gonna go meet
until they get there.
So, it can be anybody, really.
There'’s another thing.
I got the time of death from Terrence.
Well, isn'’t that nice of him?
Stop it. Okay?
[chuckles]
All right, full disclosure...
the night Kalinda died
is the same night that Vanessa was attacked at the hotel
and didn'’t report it to the cops.
I'’m gonna leave that right there.
I appreciate that.
And I'’m gonna need you to help keep me objective,
because, as you know,
Vanessa'’s my best friend. [sighs]
Best friends kill people every day.
-[phone rings] -Oh. Ooh, I have to take this, okay?
Moms, dads,
rich people, poor people,
-hell, yourass... -Hello? Hello?
-TERRENCE: Good morning, beautiful. -[exhales]
Morning.
You given any more thought to what I said?
-Uh-- It'’s-- It'’s processing. -A'’ight, well,
whatever you decide, I'’m here.
And I'’ll keep my ears open for your friend.
Speaking of which, I heard something
-you might want to know. -What'’s up?
A few weeks ago, Loomis talked to
a woman Kalinda used to work for.
-A talent manager named... -Roxanne Wood?
[chuckling]: A'’ight. You did your homework.
Well, get this. This morning I went by her office...
whole place has been cleared out.
Holy shit. So she ran?
Okay, um, well, how long till you find her?
-Uh, could be days. Could be weeks. -What?
No. No-no-no-no-no. Don'’t tell me that.
Ay. Ay. I'’ll do my best to make it happen.
Meanwhile, I got to get back to work.
So, I'’ll call you as soon as I have more.
Thank you for your help.
[quietly]: Oh, shit.
Shit-shit-shit-shit-shit-shit.
-[line ringing] -Come on, Laila.
[quietly]: Come on, please answer.
Hello! Hello, please!

Not as long as you do what you supposed to do.
And what'’s that?
Sit back, relax...

And help me, uh... settle a score...
with that son of a bitch Marques King.
-I don'’t know a Marques King. -Nice try.
No, I swear.
I'’ve never met a Marques King before.
What do you think?
You can go smash some pro baller in a hotel room
and nobody hear about it?
Think, child.
I swear.
I didn'’t know who he was at first.
-I'’m sorry. -Yeah, but you caught on pretty quick.
Didn'’t you?
When I first saw Marques ball,
back when he was a kid,
I thought...
"Now here'’s a boy
"with a wasted name. He ain'’t no king.
"He'’s just some punk
who got lucky."
Shit.
I thought he was lucky then.
[silverware clatters]
Who would'’ve thought?
What, you gonna sit there and let it get cold?
I'’m not hungry.
Yeah, well, suit yourself.
If I were you, I'’d eat while I had the chance.

BRYCE [over phone]: What?
I'’m sorry. Where were we?
Okay, so, the offer
for the winery is legit.
But the companies that made the offer have
no active operations and no significant assets.
Well, how can they bid on a winery if there are no assets?
Well, it'’s just another company using their name.
It'’s like a shell company.
Well, how--
And why would anyone want to do that?
I don'’t know.
But I looked into the parent company.
Found a link to their board of directors.
-You get my e-mail? -Yeah.
Hold on, I'’m looking now.
Any of them look familiar?
Why are my business partners
on this damn website?
[Bryce exhales]
Maybe it'’s just a misunderstanding?
No, I understand.
They'’re pushing me out.
I'’ve gotten a lot of bad press lately
and clearly I'’m a liability.

I'’m sorry, Vanessa.
It'’s okay.

That'’s why we called you here.

but that was a little stick and move, she fine.
Oh, so, you'’re defending him for attacking Vanessa?
-I should have dealt with his ass then. -Look, I'’ll talk to him.
-Man, it'’s too late for all of that shit. -Just come...
Man, get the hell off of me, man!
What'’s wrong with you?
Oh, man, you just... just don'’t get it, man.
-[safe beeping] -Look, Marques, all I'’m saying is, man, I got your back,
but if you bringing guns into this, I-I...
Hey, man, look, I'’m done, a'’ight?
This piece of shit threatened me, he threatened my family,
so I'’m-a shut his ass all the way down.
I don'’t give a damn if that'’s your homeboy.
So you gonna kill him?
[chuckles] Look, man, I-I just think you overreacting
and taking this too serious, man.
Where'’s my gun? It was just-it was right here.
I don'’t know where your gun at.
See, that'’s how you know this has gone too far--
you looking for a gun.
You a pro ball player, dummy.
I'’m out of here, man. I'’m not finna be around this today.
[paparazzi clamoring]
Mrs. King! Mrs. King!
Go, go, go, go! Go, go, go!
Go, go, go, go, go!
-Go, go, go! Go! -Where are we going?
[clamoring continues]
-Mrs. King! -Mrs. King! -Mrs. King!
-Where'’s your husband? -Lord, I'’m-a be out of a job.
-Who you with? They hiring? -Uh-huh.
NIA: Damn, they fast.
No wonder why I can'’t get any leads.
Oh, honey, you'’re about to go viral. Look at this.
What the hell?
GoldenGoddessLA, okay?
I'’m supposed to drop off $300,000 in 30 minutes,
-or this gets posted. -O-Okay, so, we'’re going to the police station?
No, no, no, no. We don'’t have time for that.
We have to go straight to the drop point.
Are you crazy?
Look, if Laila is kidnapped...
Laila is the one doing this, Nia.
Are youcrazy? Hello, she'’s been after Marques since day one.
This is her latest little stupid scheme.
I just talked to Laila,
and she was just worried about her friends.
Are you seriously defending her right now?
No! I'’m not defending her. I'’m just saying,
whoever did this, we can'’t just roll up on there unprotected.
Well, that'’s why you'’re gonna call Terrence.
Oh, I am?
I'’ll go to the drop point, let her think
that I'’m dropping the money off.
When she comes out to grab it,
that'’s when Terrence comes in and arrests her.
Then you can get your exclusive on
all these ratchet-ass hoes ruining lives.
I should'’ve never answered your text.
We'’re gonna post you up here.
♪ You ain'’t got it like me...♪
Gonna chain your hands, lock it off with a combination,
so that when they come, they see you, drop the money. [laughs]
I'’ll count it and, uh, text them the combination,
so they can come here and, uh, set you free.
-A-Actually, it'’s a little tight. -Okay, how'’s that?
Yeah, that'’s better.
-Thank you. -Good, good, good.
And you sure you want to do this?
She won'’t drop the money if she doesn'’t know I'’m alive.
You know something, lil bit, you a tough one.
I tell you, if I had six of you on my team,
things might have worked out different.

VANESSA: Call him again.
NIA: He is at work, Vanessa.
-Oh, my God. Okay. -He will call when he can.
Do you understand this video'’s gonna be posted in 20 minutes?
Which is why we need a plan B, in case we get to the drop point
without Terrence or the money.
-This is our plan B. -Are you...
Oh, my God! Is this a gun, Vanessa?
Yes! What does it look like?
Are you out of your damn mind?
-Where'’d you get that? How? -R-Relax.
-How am I gonna relax? -Would you drive, though? Don'’t just stand here,
-with the police somewhere. -How am I gonna drive? There'’s a gun in the car.
-Can you not point that at me? -I'’m not gonna shoot you.
Oh, my God. Who does that?
Nia, you stressing me out. Drive the frigging car!
-You are the one with the gun! -Shut up!

She was working at the Hotel Camarillo

-I am exercising right now? -Vanessa'’s out there with my gun.
Wish you could see that I'’m...
I'’m trying to help you.
-Do you have any idea who took you? -No, not a clue.
We had a fight. My DNA is all over her.
They'’re trying to pin this on somebody
and who better than Vanessa King?
