- [Narrator] Previously, on A House Divided.
- I've obviously had a lot of time to think,
and I realized it's my time to step up and take charge.
- You need to call off your little pit bull.
I am not going down for you.
- Carissa, I'm making a list.
I'm gonna make sure you never have to go back to jail again.
- You pay double.
I'll bring this whole thing down.
- You have no idea of the hell
we're about to bring your way.
I have an army of lawyers sharpening their blades.
[woman grunts]
- We gotta do whatever we gotta do to secure
this casino deal.
- We kill her, again.
- I don't think I can have this baby.
- I never had a vasectomy, Keno had a vasectomy.
- [Detective] This is big.
- Looks like our girl Triva's DNA ended up
on our dead rapper's johnson.
[knocking on door]
- I'll get it, it's probably my neighbor or something.
[suspenseful music Plays]
- [Narrator] And now, A House Divided.
- [Female Detective] Is your son here?
- No.
- [Female Detective] Where is he?
- He's with my cousin.
- Anybody else in there?
- No.
- Are you sure?
- Look, I need to know what's going on.
- Triva Baker, we found your DNA
on your rapper friend's member.
You were with him, sexually, a short time before his death.
Now, [detective Chuckles], are you sure there's no one else
in the house?
- Yeah, I'm sure, and I'm sure you can't look in there
without a warrant.
- Everybody wants to be a Matlock.
It's too late, we got your number. Let's go.

- Hey, hey I'm home.
Torrance!
Where the-
Hey pop, you're back.
- You didn't think I was coming back?
- I didn't say that.
Hey but here you are right?
- You know, [Sighs]
When you were a kid, we were catching this train
from London to Paris.
The train came in fast and you ran for it.
I wasn't sure if you were gonna get hit
or fall on to the train tracks, but the one thing,
the one thing I was absolutely sure of,
is that I woulda thrown my body in front
of that moving train, to save you, my first son.
I woulda never given it a second thought, to save you.
- I don't even remember that.
- Of course not, why would you?
It was your privilege.
[father sighs loudly] The one pain a parent
doesn't wanna feel,
the one shock to a parent's system is the day he realizes
- Realizes what?
- I sacrificed it all.
For my kids, for you.
But you, you don't appreciate it.
Instead you just take a shit on top of my head.
You cross me.
I would have died for you in a split second,
but you betrayed your own father.
- This is about the bank right? You found out?
- You knew we could not compete with the Germans
on another bank, but you did it anyway.
- Pop-
- Oh your ambition, oh my ambition, oh my ambition,
oh man it's just like your grandfather!
When is enough enough?
- You know he trusted me right?
And he didn't trust you.
Did you ever wonder why?
- [Father] And now you know why.
- Why?
- 'Cause you is just as conniving as your grandfather.
You're gonna call this deal off.
I'm gonna try to fix things with the Germans.
Call it off.
- Baby, what's going on?
- Baby?
Your little talk about betrayal, conniving.
That is my mother's sister.
You disgust me.
- Get out of my house.
Now!
- You were never fit to lead this family.
Grandpa knew it, that's why I'm gonna crush you.
Bag!
See you later auntie.
- Benjamin kept these warehouses to hide
some of the oil for the Nigerians.
Now it's gonna be turned into condos, down the street
from some high end stores.
- Aah, the spoils of gentrification.
[lawyer Chuckles]
- Well sorry for the long drive, but I just gotta be safe.
- Yeah, especially since they've got people watching.
- Mhmm.
At this point Carissa just wants to get what she's owed
so she can move on.
[woman laughs]
- I swear you lawyers are worse than whores,
especially when you represent worse than whores.
[lawyer Chuckles]
- I helped your grandfather build a huge portfolio
of business for the bank.
On top of many other services,
not one dollar was earned on my back.
Respect, sweetheart, is in order.
- Sweetheart, you're just gonna have to settle
for my grandpa's respect, 'cause I don't give a fuck
about you, Carissa, or the money.
I'm looking to the future,
and the future is me running Sander's Enterprises.
Just the way my mother would have wanted.
And I truly believe
that we can make this happen, together.
- I'm simply here to facilitate Carissa getting her money,
without any issues.
- Okay, well to do that, you're gonna have to facilitate me
getting what I want, without any issues, first.
- Hmm.
Please elaborate.
- There is one obstacle, one mess that has yet to be cleaned
and after that we all can get what we want.
Carissa can go bask in my daddy's fortune
and I can run my family's business.
That bitch needs to be out of the picture,
and this time for good.
I'm not talking about shipping her ass back to Chicago
in my family's private jet.
- Well damn.
When did you get savage?
- I've been a savage.
I just don't swing at the first pitch.
See, I like to see what my pitcher is working with.
Fast ball, sliders, and then when I hit,
I always hit a home run.
Now here's a pitch for you.
I truly despise you,
but I must admit I wished my daddy had chose you,
'cause at least I understand your perspective.
And you're right, evil must be met with evil.
This demon, we can't just rebuke away.
- Well dear, seems like we have a deal.
- Good.
- After you.
[lawyer sighs]
- You didn't see his face,
this man it's like he just wants to squeeze the life
out of me, he sends me to all these schools, right?
Business schools, to learn all these skills,
and then he won't let me use them, it's-
Fuck him.
- Come on now, your Grandpa always knew
he wasn't very adventurous.
We gon' take this one step at a time.
You know he means well.
- Means well don't mean shit.
- Okay, he's your father, show him respect.
But whatever you do, this bank deal is going through.
We need this to go through to exert our control.
It' a key part of the plan.
- He's not gon' stop anything.
- We gon' make this happen.
We'll be back in control.
[suspenseful music Plays]
We gon' make this happen.
- You 're late.
I have Tuesday prayer nights with my deacons.
I can't be waiting all night for you heathens.
- Man, here you go. [bag Thuds]
It's all there.
It's finals right now, so all the Adderall sold out quick
on the college campus.
- And what about the coke?
- I mean we rocked up most of it,
but everybody want heroine right now.
It's dry right now.
So what's up with the re-up?
What's up preacher man?
- The Bible says in the book of John,
"Not as Cain, for he is from the wicked
"and he slew his brother, wherefore slew he him
"because his works were evil, and his brother was righteous"
- [Man] We don't need a sermon pops.
- No, no, no. See, see you do need a sermon.
You need a sermon about the wicked and the slaying
of your brothers.
- What is you saying?
- What I am saying is I begged you to slow down
with the bodies, now you've gained the attention of the ATF
and the DEA task force.
I just got word the other day, that your faces are on
one of the bulletins in the field office.
- [Man] Oh it's a lie.
- Unfortunately all I can do is wish that it was my brother.
But it is the truth that my God loves.
And our walk together,
our journey ends now.
[gunshots fire]
[man Yells]
- [Woman] Cuz, you all right?
[woman whispers inaudibly]
- Yo you gotta get the fuck outta here cuz.
I'ma be all right.
You gotta get back on a plane to Cali now.
- Nah I'm not about to leave you like this!
- I'ma be okay, aight? You gotta go!
Go.
- Fuck!
- I'ma kill you bitch!
- We're thrilled to welcome you to La Liga, ACB in Spain.
- Whew, man you have no idea how much I appreciate
this offer, and I'ma take it.
- [Business Man] Fantastic.
- Yeah.
- We need you to head to Madrid next week.
Gotta get you in tip-top shape.
- Hey, basketball only.
Pst.
Don't bring me any bilingual grandkids home just yet.
[men Chuckle]
- I got you pops.
Yeah?
- And please, if you have any questions, just let me know.
[man sighs]
[person knocks on Door]
- Hey.
- Hey, bun.
- What's going on?
- It's happening.
- Wait...
- Yes! Yes! [woman laughs]
Just when I felt so empty, you filled me up.
And just when we lost-, I lost something so precious,
we've been restored.
I've been blessed again, I've been blessed again!
[woman laughs]
- Wow, we should go back, raise the child in France.
- Oh baby.
That's the sweetest idea,
but this child, he will be a Sanders heir,
so mama gotta stay here and take control,
make sure there's still an empire for him to inherit
when it's his time to take control.
Oh baby.
Thank you.
[phone Ringing]
- [Woman On Phone] Mr. Prime Minister,
- Yes.
- It took a while, but thank you for granting me
an audience with you.
- So, given our super connected world,
there's limited privacy.
It takes time to set up
a back-shadow, private, encrypted conversation.
I'm certain you can appreciate our need for discretion here.
- And I'm sorry to hear about the minister.
I pray that you locate him soon.
- He is a great asset to our people,
and we are sparing no expense to find out where he is
and if he is well.
- Well in regards to the casino, I just wanted to make sure
that we're pressing forward with our deal.
- Yes. Yes, this is an extremely important initiative
for our tourism bureau.
I will assign you a new handler,
we must keep this show on the road.
- Definitely.
- And the funds, will they be available in time?
- Yes. Yes, the funds will be there for you.
- If so, then I am certain we can be of assistance
to Mr. Cameron Sanders, in his trouble
with the U.S. authorities.
We are prepared to offer complete asylum
as a sovereign nation.
He will be saved from prosecution for as long as he is here.
[woman chuckles]
- We won't let you down.
- Please don't.
[woman exhales Sharply]
- So, tell us then, exactly what happened.
- Look, I don't need no lawyer, okay?
I just need to know you gon' protect me and my son.
These people are a lot more dangerous
than you think they are.
[man slams table]
- Look Kelly Rowland, start singing [metal chair slams]
or the deal is off! I'm tired of this.
- Listen, we know you're hurting.
We know you're afraid.
But you're not like these people.
You're not cold and calculating and heartless like they are.
You've got a son to protect, you've gotta be smart.
Those people are not your friends.
We're already on to them,
but you don't have to go down with them.
- The lights are on and we want a show.
- Did she force you to have sex with him?
- Yeah.
And it's like, I keep having nightmares about it.
[woman and man Giggling]
It's like the gunshots they just-
[gunshot fires]
they can't stop ringing in my head, you know?
And it's like I can still feel the vibration?
- Who shot him?
- It was Sammy.
It was Sammy okay?
- You did good.
You did good.
- Now we just gotta bring all this together
and attach it to Carissa.
- I can only help you if you protect me and my son,
like I said.
- Yes, we will protect you and your son.
- Okay then, I guess we can just put that bitch
under the jail.
- Sounds good to me.
- You're doing the right thing.
- I don't know what the right thing is anymore.
- We are definitely gonna have to charge her
with murder too. Poor boy.
- Yeah.
That's sad, he'll be a statistic in a couple of years.
- That's what happens.
[door shuts]
[suspenseful music Plays]
- They're here.
- Son of a bitch. [man chuckling]
How'd you find him?
- I'm not giving you all of my investigation secrets.
Using tactics for that.
- Shut up and tell me.
- Shh, give me a kiss.
[suspenseful music Continues]
Look at him, cheap bastard.
Spent money getting a Dior purse for a video vixen,
on his company card for his Nigerian shipping company,
it's how we found him.
Then he gassed up two blocks away,
so we took the surveillance camera from the gas station,
got the license plate.
We got him, dumb ass motherfucker.
He parked during street cleaning, got a ticket,
tried to write it off.
We coming for you.
- It's the bitches that get you guys hot
every single time, every time.
- Not me, all I need is one bitch.
My queen bitch. - Shut up.
- And look at you.
[indistinct]
Enjoy that my brother.
'Cause your time is ticking.
- Yes it is.
- Come on.
[plane engine Roars]
[lighter clicking]
- You're lucky it isn't June.
The heat here in Dubai is something to write home about.
- Yeah, well it still feels like June.
I rushed over here for a very specific purpose.
I need help with a situation.
- As you know, we keep our ears tuned to the street
as you say in your world,
but the Germans, they have already called
and asked us not to help you.
- You know, sometimes I wonder who the real gangsters are.
- Not to worry, I'm not a big fan of their bank.
Their hands are not the cleanest, if you will.
- Yeah, whose are?
Well my office already sent over the prospectus.
Now you've seen the numbers so...
- Well, I invited you here in such a rush
to look you in the eye and tell you.
I will do this deal, I'm all in.
- That's good.
- As you know, we're trying to expand, to diversify,
and this money is just a little drop in the bucket,
so we may wet our beak a little.
But I will only cover half, if you get the other half.
And who knows? This could lead to greater things.
- Yes it could.
- Not so fast.
As a man, I need a favor from you first.
- What favor?
- You see, my lovely wife-
In order for me to explore the world as much as I do,
she too must explore.
- Meaning?
- She loves black American boys, you know?
She watches the NBA, it's a thing.
You basically have about an hour to please my wife
and to take care of your business partner.
[birds chirping]
[jogger breathing Heavily]
- Heard you like to play with knives.
I do too.
[jogger grunts]
- [Jogger] Help!
This physical body, this is not me.
You can't kill me, I live on.
- I can dig it.
[attacker Grunting]
- [Jogger] Help!
[attacker grunts]
[attacker breathing Heavily]
- Lil sis, where you at?
- Hey baby boy, I'm in the stock room.
- What's up sis?
- Ay baby bro.
- Can I talk to you for a second?
- Yeah, how'd that signing go?
- Wait, how'd you know about that?
[woman laughs]
- I am the lady of this house,
there's not much I don't know about.
- That's true.
- Senor Muchacho.
[brother chuckles]
- But yeah, I got an offer to play ball in Spain.
- Wow.
I know that's far, but it's one step closer
to your NBA dreams.
- I'm hella excited, but I don't know.
At the same time, I guess I just...
Feel a little guilty about leaving you guys.
- There, when you were born, I know you've heard this,
but I pretended you were my baby.
Cut it out!
Now that mommy's gone, as far as I'm concerned,
you are my baby, and I got your back.
So you don't have to feel guilty about anything, you go
and you pursue your dreams.
Not only because mom, for some reason, wanted you
to be a basketball star, but because you want it.
So if you don't have the desire to do it for you,
do it for her.
Do it for us.
- I don't know, I guess I just- it feels selfish to me,
but I'm not gon' lie,
I'm so ready to get the fuck outta here.
- Well I don't blame you, shoot me too.
- [brother Sighs] You know I love you, right sis?
And I'll come back in a heartbeat if you need me.
- Nuh uh uh.
You'll come back when, and only after,
you give them Spaniards hell on the court.
Then, you'll come back when, and only after,
the Lakers or Clippers-
man I like the Clippers. - Damn, Clippers?
- When they call. - Hell naw, mm mm,
Lakeshore all day baby.
- All right, there we go.
[brother laughing] There we go, now come on.
We got a new horse. - We got a new horse?
- [Sister] Yeah, Cupid.
- We gotta get to Triva.
She starts talking, it's over, right?
- We gotta make sure Triva never talks again.
Now the feds are probably onto the fact
that you ordered the hit.
- You tried the warn me.
- We gotta tie up all your loose ends.
- Okay, but I draw the line at the kid.
- The kid is a killer. Aight?
And sometimes this shit happens.
- I'm not signing off on it.
- I don't think you understand what the fuck
I'm talking about.
Is this what you want?! Look around!
You wanna be running all your life, huh?
'Cause that's what's gonna happen.
You either act, or die.
Now what about Alexis?
- Alexis is a little ghetto bird, she ain't got shit on me,
all right?
If we do her, it's for sheer satisfaction.
- Satisfaction never justifies a mission.
What we gotta do is make those Nigerians wish
they never crossed the ocean.
- Let's get at them first thing in the morning,
before they get a chance to relocate.
- Good, I got an operative, a guy I trust.
He's gonna come with me and I'm gonna make sure
that we take care of-
- No, no, no more witnesses.
I'm coming, I'm good with a gun.
- Carissa, you can't go with me-
- I'm coming.
- Aight.
We pull out first thing in the morning, soldier.
But if I take you with me,
you listen to everything that I say,
you follow my orders, you follow my lead, aight?
No bullshit.
- All right.
- And then we leave the country.
After we clean this shit up, I'll get the cryptocurrency
off the drive, you get your money, and we outta here.
Quickly and quietly.
- Quickly and quietly.

[suspenseful music playing]
- Fuck are you doing here?
- Spoke to your security and they told me
you were just about to land.
- What do you want?
And if it's not the truth, I don't wanna hear it.
What do you want?!
- This. Your child is inside of me.
Your child is inside of me.
I just want you to remember that.
- And what does that mean?
- I thought it was Keno's baby,
I was looking into terminating our child,
and that was only because I realized
that I was just another toy in your life,
a monument to your success, like your jet
or your Lamborghini.
- Don't fucking lie to me! I don't have time for this shit!
Just tell me the truth, where is he?!
- He fucking fell.
I told him about the pregnancy and he lied to me
and told me you had a vasectomy,
then he tried to force me to have an abortion.
He was choking me. - What'd you do?
- No he was choking me.
I had to fight him off.
He just fell downstairs.
He hit his head or cracked his neck, I don't-
He died.
- You had no right to touch him.
You had no right to touch him!
- I swear I didn't do anything.
I had to get him off of me.
- Where is he?
- No!
- [Cameron] What did you do with him?
- Carissa, I called Carissa and then Sammy came
and he took the body.
No!
- He was our family, that didn't mean nothing to you, right?
- It was an accident, I told you! He- [woman Sobs]
- I don't wanna see you again, you hear me?
Get off me, you're dead to me! [woman sobbing and Screaming]

No! No!
[suspenseful music playing]
- [Narrator] Next time, on A House Divided.
- Carissa, how are you?
I understand there's been some issues.
How is your soul?
- We got a plan, and we gon' get through this,
and then, we can live the life that we deserve.
- We don't deserve shit.
- This is where I belong, and this is where
we have to stay.
- Sir I'm so sorry, security couldn't stop them.
- Can I help you Agent Barnes?
- I'm very close, it's just about time to strike the match.
- The more things change, the more they stay the same,
don't they Carissa?
- Welcome back to my place of discretion.
