[dramatic music]
- [Narrator] Previously on "A House Divided."
- I'm looking to the future.
And the future is me running Sanders Enterprises.
- Yes.
- You are fucking over.
- Let me help you get your money
from that spoiled, entitled bastard.
All 150 million.
- It's not over until I say.
- I begged you to slow down with the bodies.
Our journey ends now.
[rounds firing]
- You gotta get the fuck outta here, 'Cuz.
Now.
- I'm not about to leave you like this.
- What the fuck are you doing here?
- Your child is inside of me.
- That's the mission.
- I heard you like to play with knives.
I do, too.
- Like I said, you're undeniable.
- Why would you kill the father of my child?
Ah! [round firing]
Ah.
Because you wanna be the queen.
- Don't you dare come in here trying to tell me who I am.
- I'm carrying his child.
- Not for long.
We are about to own our own casino.
- I want to confess.
I want it to be all over.
- Then I'll pay Alexis a visit.
[indistinct] our enemies.
- You need to come,
now.
- [Auntie Mae] Your son and your daughter
have joined together to take over this family.
- This bank deal is going through.
We need this to exert our control.
- [Auntie Mae] You are dead to us.
- Welcome to the rebirth.
- I'm pregnant.
I'm pregnant, I'm pregnant.
[Summer gasping]
Mom!
[woman crying]
- I got you.
Always have,
always will.
[sirens blaring]
- Holy shit.
[sirens blaring]
They didn't give a fuck if we lived or die.
This is the life I want for you.
It's okay.
Don't cry now, it's done.
[sirens blaring] - [Police Dispatch] Yeah,
1-1-40, copy, 20 minutes. - [Officer] 242.

[round firing]
[tires screeching]
- Get in!
- What happened to my Mother?
- [Carissa] I-it was an accident.
S-she choked.
I had nothing to do with it, Cam.
[phone ringing]
[ominous music]
[round firing]
[phone ringing]
- Jupiter.
- Carissa, there is a man at my office.
A very dangerous man.
He has come to murder you.
So get out of there right now
and meet me at the coffee shop where we met last week.
Leave, now.
- Ah.
- I assume she won't be arriving.
- We'll try again tomorrow.
- Yes, yes.
Tomorrow.
I'll contact you when the time is right.
[Jupiter sighing]
- Bail is set at 500,000.
[gavel smashing]
Mr. Sanders,
you know not to obtain a foreign travel document.
Good luck to you, Mr. Sanders.
I knew your father quite well.
A colorful character.
A man of integrity.
I am certainly shocked to see you here in my courtroom.
- We already got this one in the bag.
Why am I paying you price-gouging lawyers?
- Your sister, where is she?
I've tried to call her several times.
I need to speak with her.
- I haven't been able to get a hold of her, either,
but she's like that.
Sometimes she just disappears.
You know, she likes to take her space.
- Hmm.
Seems odd.
She's never been elusive towards me.
- Just give her a minute.
She'll turn up.
- Yeah, yeah.
I was only supposed to deal with you temporarily.
- Temporarily?
[Auntie Mae chuckling]
Is that what this was?
- Our time in the physical plane was magical,
but I'm afraid things have become too complex
due to the nature of our business relationship.
Alexis is missing.
Things are not going according to plan.
I still haven't located Carissa.
I may be leaving soon.
I can't work in a messy environment.
This, of course, is not your fault.
- You do fucked up shit and make it sound fancy.
It's still fucked up.
- Mm.
- Doesn't matter whose fault it is.
I don't want you to go.
- There is a season for everything,
a moment for everything.
A beginning and an end to everything except Allah.
You are a gem, sister.
[licentious music]
[licentious music continues]
- Yeah, man.
Hey, hey, nobody touches you but me, okay?
Hey.
[Benjamin laughing]
Oh, man, we're gonna have some fun.
- Mm-hmm.
- I'm a little bit tired from last night,
[man laughing] so listen,
me and you and one and half for me.
[men laughing]
Look here now, I got some pills right here.
Blue pill for performance.
- Mm-hmm.
- White pill to take the edge off, okay?
- Oh, come on, I prefer the edge.
Don't act like we ain't done this a million times.
- Hey, look here.
Our flight back to the States is at 6:00 A.M.
Don't hurt yourself, CJ.
Bill Clinton is not gonna appoint a cripple
to the bench, okay?
- You know me.
- All right.
- I got this.
- Hey, sweetie, [indistinct], would you?
[licentious music]
[licentious music continues]
[Benjamin laughing]
All right, all right.
- [CJ] Mm, mm.
- Pops?
- T.
- You hungry?
- I'm starving.
Let's do this. - Let's do this.
[hand tapping]
[door slamming]
- You know,
the worst thing that you can taste,
that you can feel in your mouth,
is pulp in a mimosa.
Just when you think you're headed for a
refreshing morning pick-me-up,
you can't help but notice something wrong,
something that shouldn't be there.
It should be smooth,
easy,
but I guess like Ike and Tina said,
nothing is ever smooth and easy for us,
is it, Auntie Mae?
- We'll get another chance.
- No!
You blew it.
You had one chance, you had one job.
We provided all the necessary resources needed.
All you had to do was keep things running smooth.
Easy.
Carissa should not be the pulp in our mimosa,
but once again, Auntie, the bitch still is.
- We are still looking for her.
Jupiter is working with us.
We will get it done.
- Jupiter?
Jupiter? - Yeah.
- I wouldn't trust that slut whore.
Why do you put so much trust in her, Auntie?
Huh?
As far as I can see, the ho goes where the money flows.
- And we took good care of her.
- That's not enough.
I just received word my Father's been granted bail,
so there's no time.
We've gotta move fast,
because we both know that he will stop at nothing
to get his grubby hands
back in control of our family's empire.
So now we've got another problem.
- We got something for him.
He will not be a problem.
- That's what you said about Carissa.
You know what?
I'm beginning to think maybe you're the problem.
Maybe it's you.
Maybe you're the pulp in my mimosa, huh, Auntie?
[Auntie Mae laughing]
- Oh, that's funny.
[Auntie Mae laughing]
Okay,
me and your Momma,
we was out there making moves
[Stephanie sighing]
while you were still swimming around
in your daddy's wrinkled nut sack.
Don't you ever threaten me, youngster.
I will run circles around your spoiled, green ass.
Oh, but please,
I hope you are stupid enough to come fuck with me.
Now you sit back
and wait.
Wheels are turning.
[Stephanie spitting]
- I hate pulp.
I said I hated pulp.
Now make it right
and fix this shit.
Clean it up before my daddy gets back home.
[soft music]
- Listen, they, want you dead.
But it makes sense.
They want a clean slate, secrets erased,
so they can spend that billion dollars in peace.
- While I rest in peace.
And after all I did for them?
- Well, no good deed goes unpunished.
- Was Cameran involved?
- Uh uh, not that I know of.
It was your lovely Aunt Mae,
your stepdaughter, Stephanie, mostly,
but I think Junior was in cahoots
with that little "Scooby" group.
- So why didn't you follow through with it?
Oh, come on,
we both know they offered you a pretty penny.
- I'm a lawyer.
I'm not a murderer.
And Benjamin would've never asked me
to set someone up to be killed.
Now, I may run up to the lines of the law,
but I will not cross it.
That is not my position on the field.
Plus, 30 million is more than enough for me.
And I feel confident in your [indistinct],
being that I have it in my position,
in my legal trust account, safe and sound.
- Wait, wait,
all 150 million, you have it?
[Jupiter laughing]
- Sitting comfy in my firm's trust account.
But I think we should leave it there
until we finish up with your little court case situation.
- Fair enough.
And what's going on with that?
- Well, I have a meeting with them in two days,
but they're still shaking in their boots.
- I need money.
I need something.
- That won't decline.
PIN is your birthday,
and I'm keeping track so we can settle when this is done.
- Okay.
- No, no, no.
[Carissa groaning]
Carissa.
- It's okay.
I'm fine.
- You've been shot.
- No hospitals, okay?
- Oh, God.
[Carissa sighing]
I know a guy who can help and he will be discreet.
- I won't let them kill me.
I won't let them destroy me.
- I'm here.
I'm in your corner,
and I'm gonna help you fight this thing, Carissa.
What they did to you is terrible.
Benjamin would've never betrayed you like this.
[phone pinging]
Okay.
Let me take you, it's a 30 minute drive.
But don't you even think about bleeding in my Benz,
okay, bitch?
- You're fucking crazy, you know that?
- [Jupiter] Let's go.
- Shit.
- Hey, Auntie.
Yeah, so our world headquarters
is gonna be the envy of the American South.
Atlanta's the promised land.
We're gonna build our FinTech empire right here.
- Yes. - Yes.
- Black Hollywood.
- Right back here
is where the FinTech University's gonna be.
We're gonna train the next generation of Black entrepreneurs
in the space of finance
so they can learn that there's other ways to make money
besides being a drug dealer, a rapper or an athlete.
- All right, this is it.
This is the new beginning we've been dreaming about.
Everything's great, well, except for that heat.
- Oh, well, yeah.
Well, we're just about to turn the heat up.
You know, it's not hot yet.
We're gonna heat up this whole marketplace, this city.
Rebirth bank.
- Your son loves when you dream big.
- Yeah.
Yeah, well, this ain't a dream.
This is reality.
- Well, child, let me stay on this west coast, okay?
'Cause that humidity out there, it's not good for the frizz.
[Auntie laughing]
But, Cameran, I do need to talk to you privately.
- Okay.
All right, hang on.
Let me just take you off FaceTime.
Um, I'll catch up with you in a minute.
All right, yeah, Auntie, what's up?
- Your Father,
he's out on bail.
- Yeah, I heard.
So what's our move?
- He's gonna do everything he can to get in our way,
so we need to make some drastic moves.
I'm not sure you wanna be in the loop
when these next moves come into play.
- You know, my Mother, she was a sweet soul,
she was a kind soul.
She didn't deserve the tragic death she got.
- She was definitely a pure heart.
- That being said, I won't feel bad if
the universe gives someone who deserves tragedy
exactly what they deserve.
- It will be quick and painless.
- No.
No, let's make it slow and painful.
The man's not my father.
He gets no grace from me.
Let me get back to this foreman.
They're waiting on me.
Rebirth Bank is on the way.
Talk to you soon.
- Ooh, Cam.
- Bravo.
It seems as if you've transformed beautifully,
like a butterfly.
- What the fuck do you want, Clark?
- You know exactly what I want.
See, you used to be nothing but a drug-dealing, killing,
fellatio-providing, seven ward hood chicken.
Now look at you.
Brand new headquarters,
got on your sexy little workers' vest.
- Yo, what do you want?
I mean, we're in the middle of broad daylight.
You're not about to kill me.
- No, no, no, no.
That's because my God is a merciful God.
But you,
you and your little pit bull cousin
killed three of my men.
And on top of that, you still owe me.
- Man, I got your money.
And as far as I remember,
I was the one ducking bullets
before any of your men were killed.
- You know, I had a meeting on Tuesday
with a good friend of mines from high school.
I went to the Mac.
Did you know that he's currently the DEA agent in our city?
Well, it seems as if they're just days away from announcing
that they've solved a multiple homicide
that took place uptown.
It seemed as if the young man had been sexually assaulted
and then shot in the head.
- What that gotta do with me?
- The victim survived.
- Great news.
- Yes.
My God is a great God.
And but it seems as though,
even though that the bullet shook the skull,
that motherfucker seems to remember who shot him.
Now I know what you're thinking.
Let me call my little pit bull cousins, but yeah.
[rifle thumping] [man coughing]
[man laughing]
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
Be in good fellowships.
Say hello to the cameras.
[Clark laughing]
- Don't tell 'em shit.
Let 'em kill me.
[rifle thumping]
- Ah.
- That's all you got, huh?
I was built for this shit.
Huh?
I'm gonna die when I die.
- Hey, you know what the Bible says, huh?
"That the Lord shall smite thee."
- What do you want?
- What I want is for you to use your little banking connects
to help me clean up some of my unclean money.
Figure it out.
Make it work.
And if you do, then I'll bless you.
- How you gonna do that?
- Well, your cousin won't have to die so young,
like many of our Black men.
And that's so sad.
And plus, on top of that,
my friend won't have the luxury of
your little broomstick boy's testimony,
because I've already taken care of that.
I've already made sure that he goes
and be with our king tonight, if you know what I mean.
- Hmm.
Thanks for your kindness,
but I ain't got access to the bank like that.
- Delilah told Samson,
"Tell me, I pray thee,
"wherein lieth thou great strength,
"and wherewith thou mightest be bound to afflict thee."
Bitch, you are Delilah.
Bind 'em and make it work for me.
In other words, go cluck.
- I need more details.
- I'll be in touch with you.
I'll call you on this phone to prepare for the transactions.
In the meantime,
I'll let your cousin eat as much Popeye's as he wants.
You know that boy like those biscuits?
Yeah.
Be blessed, Delilah.
- Well, welcome home, Pops.
- Stephanie,
you will face me!
Now!
I called your mom about 20 times
to let her know I was out.
Where is she?
[Summer sighing]
- Summer, where is Alexis?
- She's where anyone who trusts this family fucking ends up.
She's gone.
They killed her.
- Is it true?
- Yes.
At the hotel.
I just left.
She was shot in the head.
[phone buzzing]
- Why?
Why would they harm her?
- I have no idea.
But I saw him.
- Him?
I know.
- You did this.
You did this.
- I loved your mother.
I promised to protect her,
to keep her safe.
I failed.
- My Mom told me that she needed this casino deal
to go off without a hitch.
I'm here to make sure it does.
- It's impossible.
We don't have the money.
The government is-
- No, she was already two steps ahead.
She sold the cell tower assets
that she transferred into her name.
5G is a beast.
You got the money.
We got the money.
And she showed me where she hid it.
- Now, they may come for me, and that's how they are.
Evil is always moving, always plotting.
And we know that.
But I'm gonna try to stay on point.
We're almost at the finish line.
- And the finish line is the casino?
- The fine is you and I together, living in paradise,
with a piece of a billion dollar gambling enterprise,
living the life of queens,
because we've always been queens.
The world has our money.
We just gotta go get it.
- I like the sound of that.
Queens.
- Now, no matter what happens to me,
if anything happens to me,
I need you to press on with our goal.
Make this happen.
Not just for you,
but for our future generation.
We need to change the course,
the trajectory of our family,
out of poverty and into the future.
- Mom, look, I don't know.
This is a lot of responsibility.
- I know,
but like I said,
we've always been queens.
- I need time to process.
You stay here in the guest house.
Don't leave the estate.
I don't want to lose you, too.
You're my daughter.
- I'm my Mother's daughter.
And the only reason why I'm here
is to make sure this casino deal is completed,
no matter what it takes.
[Cameran sighing]
- Now look, Son,
I know you guys were dating.
We looked at the phone records.
Quite the romance.
- Yeah, no, I can't do this.
- I just need you to identify her.
It's for the official records.
[Torrance sighing]
[Torrance exhaling]
- That, um,
that's her,
that's Marina.
- It's okay, Son.
We'll get to the bottom of this.
She will get her justice.
[Torrance crying]
- I don't want it.
They dead to me.
- It's okay.
- You're lucky.
I repaired a wound like that when I was in Kandahar.
She probably would've died in about a week.
- Oh, I hate blood, I'm sorry.
- No, no, no, you can't sit up.
Take it easy.
You had bullet fragments lingering,
soft tissue damage.
- Ugh.
- Look, well, you're gonna have to get her outta here.
That's for sure.
I've broken at least 15 laws,
and I can't be responsible if she reacts to that antibiotic
or gets an infection.
- Okay.
- Jupiter, thanks for calling me.
- Of course.
- I'll take her home.
- Give her these pills.
She needs to take all of those,
and she needs plenty of rest.
All right?
- [Jupiter] Mm-hmm.
- It's gonna take a couple of months for her to heal,
if she does.
- And I'll make sure she heals inside and out.
Come here.
I got you.
[Carissa whimpering]
- I miss you so much, Mom.
You really were the heart and soul of this family.
Everything's been fucked up since you passed.
Fuck!
[Torrance sighing]
- This is nice.
- I mean, how the fuck did you find me?
- It's peaceful.
- What do you want?
- Try again.
- You know, the cops have been talking to me.
- There you go.
Let's take a walk.
I said walk.
Come on.
- Fuck.
Look, man, I swear, I'll stop talking to the cops.
- No, no.
I'm not gonna have you do that.
In fact, I want you to talk to 'em.
I think you should know
exactly what kind of people you're dealing with.
- Yeah, I know.
I know.
[Carlyle laughing] - Not me, killer.
- What?
That shit don't matter.
You made me do it.
- Maybe,
maybe not.
Maybe you should be asking yourself,
"What else are the cops trying to link me to?"
Huh?
Brother, sister?
Maybe should ask the cops about Peter and your Father.
Hm? - Look man,
what the fuck do you want from me?
[ominous music]
[Torrance sighing]
- Come on.
I'll be in touch, killer.
- Fuck me.

- Welcome home, Daddy.
I was waiting- - For me to die.
You know,
when you take a walk through the cool meadows as a father
with your little girl,
there's no greater feeling in the world.
Ain't no stronger emotion
than knowing that you are her rock.
She takes her little hand
and she grabs your little pinky finger
and it gives you the will, the strength,
to take on the whole world.
[Cameran laughing]
Now, [Cameran chuckling]
I look at my little girl as a woman,
I don't see nothing,
just contempt.
My little girl has lost her way.
She whispers in the dark while I'm asleep
and she plots with my enemies against me.
You take the sword and you're shoving it in my spine.
In my pain
and in my sorrow,
in my worst time of betrayal,
I still love you.
- It was you.
You who betrayed us,
you who betrayed this family,
you [Cameran groaning] who betrayed my Mother.
- You turned on me!
You're blood!
But I spared those that you love.
Now-
- Did you get that out of the frame?
Daddy, you wouldn't.
- But you would never.
You are no longer welcome in this house.
I will sell every one of your little ponies by morning.
- You will not touch my damn horses!
Don't you touch my babies!
- I will take means of this family again.
I will teach you conniving, ungrateful, little bastards
that I am not the one to mess with.
I am nothing compared to Benjamin in what I will do.
- You're right.
You are nothing compared to Benjamin.
But you remember your little girl?
Me.
Me, Daddy.
I thought this was a family.
This ain't been no family since my Mommy died.
[ominous music]
- [Narrator] Next time on "A House Divided."
- You turned on this family.
- This can't-
- Don't interrupt me, Judas bitch.
- I'm gonna get my money.
- Where's Stephanie?
- If they try to stop me-
- Stay away from my family.
- It'll be a bloodbath.
- This family's accumulating way too many victims.
- I want 'em all wiped off the face of the fucking map.
