[intense music]
We can sit here all day.
I don't know what you want me to say.
Something.
Okay, smartass.
So, did Terrell have a hit out on him or not?
Like I said, I don't know what you're talking about,
Detective Young.
So, you mean he beats one of Mona Dee's guys
almost unrecognizable, and she just didn't give a fuck?
You know, I heard you let Lavar hit it,
and that's why Terrell fucked him up.
What can I say? A lot of men and women want to fuck me.
You look like the type that likes to watch.
Hm.
Well, speaking of watching.
The two of you hosted sex parties at this penthouse.
Is that right?

[ Horn blows ]
Mm, I see you're wearing that tie that I like.
Mm-hmm. Sure am.
I am super stoked about this penthouse tonight.
Me too.
Though I am a little nervous to be breaking the rules,
bringing in your ass in there.
Maybe I should have my own party.
What? You trying to party without your man?
[ Laughs ] You know, I break all the rules for you, Daddy.
Mm, that's what I'm talking about.
Seriously, though, I think this can make us some real money.
There's some moves I wanted to make,
and this could leverage us right where we need to be.
Yeah, I mean, people are willing to pay top dollar
to be a part of our exclusive members only club.
-Yeah. -Crazy.
All we need to do is produce an extraordinary event.
Well, you know, I got that handled.
You know how I do.
Yes, I do know how you do.
Mm-hmm.
Mona was right.
This ass is heavy.
Oh, shut up.
[ Both laugh ]
I'm glad.
But I got to swing by the club before I go into work.
Okay. Oh.
I thought you had to get to work.
Yeah, I do. But, you know, I can be quick.
-Mm. -Mm.
♪ That's what you thinking about? ♪
♪ I got everything right here
I mean, for real. He gives me everything I need.
From the moment we met, it was just instant connection.
Unlike anything I've ever felt in my life.
If you're so happy in your relationship,
why rent the penthouse?
We don't subscribe to traditional marriage.
You know, just because we allow each other
to feel pleasure from other people
doesn't mean that we're not committed like other couples.
Sex is just sex.
We're beings. The largest group of animals.
Which means we were meant to be free.
And that means free in more ways than one.
Having multiple sex partners
means you'll just be satisfied in multiple ways.
I told you, I am not here to judge you, Syleena.
Okay, Doc. You know, I could really use a drink.
By all means, help yourself.
You know, I tell couples all the time,
the thing that kills most relationships is the secret,
not the affair.
Hm.
Mm. I don't know about that.
I think sometimes affairs can do a lot of damage, too.
Yes, I agree with that.
But I mean, it's really not the end all Be all that
everyone thinks it is.
My dad was the original Rolling Stone.
He would find women on the street, and there wasn't one
he wouldn't want to get into bed or flirt with.
And he flaunted that shit. Not a care in the world.
For me, for my mother, nobody.
I can imagine how difficult that must have been for your mother.
It was hell.
And she loved him so much.
She would always say,
"Why am I not enough for you? Why am I not enough for you?"
She blamed herself for his bullshit.
I can see that was pretty traumatic for you as a child.
Tell me, did your parents ever overcome that?
No.
My dad got exactly what he deserved.
He was fucking some woman.
And the husband came home. This is an article.
Husband shot him in the head while he was on top of his wife.
DRAYA: That's terrible. I'm so sorry, Syleena.
And your mom, she had to grieve through her heartbreak.
After his murder, she just couldn't get herself together.
It was like she needed him to live.
She -- She died of a broken heart.
Then you met Terrell.
Then I met Terrell.
And at first, it was just a lot of hot sex.
A lot of hot sex.
-Okay. Okay. Okay. -Yeah.
I was this young, fresh, Black boutique owner.
He was this high powered Black attorney.
It just -- It just made sense.
A power couple.
We are a power couple.
Terrell just loves me like no one else.
He sees through my outer core.
It's like nothing else I've ever felt.
And he would do anything for me. So I would do anything for him.
Including have an open marriage.
You know what, Draya? You can call it daddy issues.
You can whatever.
But I believe that men are not capable of monogamy.
Given opportunity, all men are going to fucking cheat on you.
How does having an open marriage appease Syleena?
You know, this beautiful woman sitting across from me?
[ Chuckles ] The open marriage was my idea.
In fact, I told Terrell I would not marry him
unless he agreed to it.
Because he can't cheat if you orchestrate it.
[ Chuckles ]
Ding, ding, ding.
Exactly.
Cheers.

-Good looking crowd tonight. -Mm-hmm.
I saw we had an extra guest.
Did you invite someone and forget to tell me?
Yes. Sorry. I had a last minute addition.
Mm.
Who is it?
The guest of honor.
Judge Dupri.

[ Line ringing]
-Hey. -Hey.
Are you seeing what I'm seeing?
Yeah. The husband.
Okay. I mean, I'm not fucking crazy, right?
Did we know he would be there?
Nah, I mean, it is a sex party.
You could have would assumed that would have been there.
But you know what they say about assumptions?
Yeah, but I feel like I should check her ass because
I told her no husbands allowed.
This is my research, alright?
And she's now potentially fucking with my money.
I need you to watch your ass, all right?
-Just pay attention. -I got you.
Anything else you need?
Yeah. Hey. Zoom in on the two men in the corner.
Give me one second. Let me see what I can do.
DRAYA: Is that Judge Dupri?
Yep.
Oh, you're kidding me.
This fucking guy.
They're going to be in therapy a long time.
JULIO: Just really annoy me. All right?
[ Speaking Spanish ]
Mark. I'm trying to tell -- Listen.
I told you I don't like all that flashy shit.
No, and tell CNA to don't be on that bullshit either. Okay?
I'm not doing that fake ass reality shit that Gina's doing.
Okay?
I'm only talking about the contract,
the season, and the Man of the Year award.
That's it. Look, I know you, Mark.
Mark, I swear to God,
[ Speaking Spanish ] I will walk off the set.
Don't -- Don't do me like that.
Uh-huh.
Yeah.
Okay.
They will. Yeah.
-Yo. -Yeah!
That shit looks clean, man.
ALEJANDRO: Yeah, man, can't have you swimming around
in no dirty ass pool.
[ Chuckles ]
I remember I used to dream about this shit, man.
ALEJANDRO: Yeah? Excuse me.
It's a long way from Georgia.
A long way from the D.R.
Mm hmm.
But you got everything Pop trained you for.
Hell yeah, I did.
Man, when Pop got deported,
man, I couldn't hold it together.
A single Black mother in Georgia.
Man.
Yeah.
Shit, I mean, I guess we didn't have
it much better.
We struggled, bro.
My mom being Puerto Rican and us being in the middle of the D.R.,
they didn't accept us.
I guess no matter how you flip it,
[ Speaking Spanish ]
You know your heritage and where you come from.
He taught you baseball, man. Look at you now.
And look at you now.
I mean, not right now, but that's why I brought you here.
You're getting a peace of my pie, you know?
[ Speaking Spanish ]
What the fuck does that mean?
[ Laughs ] I'm saying we're family, bro.
I got you for life.
To the end.
I love you, big bro. For real.
Love you, too.
Hermanos, you know?
Hey.
I need you to do me a favor.
I saw these.
Something's going on with Gina.
I need you to look into it for me.
Like what?
I don't know.
I know this shit is made up, and I'm probably tripping,
but she's been asking you to take her
anywhere different?
Nah, bro. Same old, same old.
I checked all the accounts. She's not spending money.
That's weird, bro.
I don't know. I'm probably tripping.
Am I tripping?
[ Laughs ] Hey, I don't know, man, but you know
I'll check on it for you.
My man, I know you will.
Cheers.
Now go make mama some money.
Here's your drink this morning. Anything else?
Thank you, baby. This'll do.
No problem.
Mona Dee!
You got something for me?
You ever think about putting a tattoo parlor up in here?
Hell naw. I'm just marking my property.
Okay, well, as much as I enjoy watching you pop cherries,
time is money.
Yeah. Time is money.
Your money is my money.
And I'm gonna count this shit later.
All right. You know, that's just from one party.
Now, see, if I was a party planner, I'd have
a line of pill popping Potomac housewives
lined out damn door.
But I still want the rest of my money, too.
TERRELL: Oh, you'll get it.
These parties, the more exclusive they are,
the bigger the checks of the people.
Like, these are the most influential big wigs.
Trust me.
You always called my trust. Trust me, nigga.
Those influential bigwigs you talking about
be the main motherfuckers calling the police on a bitch
when shit don't go they fuckin' way.
Not these people.
I don't like disruptions in my business, Terrell.
I'm fully aware.
I brought you you on because you had a vision.
Same vision I had before my brother almost fucked up
our whole shit fucking around with some stupid ass bitch.
Wait a minute, are you comparing yourself to me?
No, not really.
But you got drive, the same drive that my brother
had a long time ago before he let that bitch fuck him up.
Oh, what's up, Lavar? Where you been at? You late.
Sorry, Auntie. I got caught up.
Maybe you shouldn't be high 24/7.
What the fuck is you? My drug counselor now?
I'm tired of y'all with this bullshit,
always fucking fighting.
Y'all niggas need to act like y'all got some fuckin' sense.
Your nephew need to know how to respect his elders
and only speak when spoken to.
And Steve Urkel need to learn his fucking place.
You know I'm family, bitch. Blood thicker than water.
Lavar, shut the fuck up.
Terrell need a new shipment by tomorrow.
I stay fucking ready.
Like your ass is supposed to be ready two hours ago?
And put that shit out!
Fuck, man.
All these fuckin' swings.
I need y'all niggas to act like y'all got some sense.
Won't be a problem on my side.
Mine neither, bitch.
You call me a bitch -- Fuck off!
You motherfuckers is fuckin' with my paper!
She's right.
I'll beat your ass, nigga.
Just hit me when the burn about to drop.
This square nigga blowing my fuckin' high.
Bitch ass nigga. Disrespectful.
You always fucking with him.
You know he got a short fuse like his stupid ass daddy.
Quit fucking with him!
I'm gonna handle my business!
You just keep his ass on a leash!
Nigga, who the fuck you think you talking to like that?
You must have forgot who the fuck I am.
Get your bitch ass out of here!
Bitch!
Spank it? Huh?

JORDAN: You've reached Jordan Vincent.
Please leave a message,
and I'll come back to you as soon as possible.

MAN: Hey, nigga, she out there living her best life.
She ain't thinking about your locked up ass.

[ Buzzer ]
-Hi, baby. -How'd it go?
Oh, just like you said it would.
You know, Mona, as mean as she is,
you know, she knows we're about to make a lot of money.
SYLEENA: I love it. Just stick to the plan.
Yeah, I will.
AJ, you're so silly. Yeah, I just finished a session.
I'm about to get the girls.
Oops. I probably should have called.
I forgot my wedding ring.
I found it. It's all good.
I'm about to head out, so it's okay.
Hey, girlies.
I don't think we're supposed to be here at the same time.
Oh, it's all good. I'm about to head out.
What's with the mess?
Oh, yeah, that.
Well, I mean, I was hosting an event here tonight,
so I came a little early just to relax.
But since we're all here, we might as well try
to get to know each other a little bit better, right?
I mean, we share a penthouse for only God knows what kind of
juicy ass tea be going down.
We already have a bond.
-I'm with the shits. -Make the most of it!
I love wine. Okay. Just a couple of minutes.
Or an hour.
-Or two. -Or two.
The $100 Million Man, Julio Rodriguez.
That's me, baby.
Boy, this city sure does love you.
And now the Kennedy Foundation's Man of the Year.
Congrats on that.
Thank you. Thank you. I'm humbled by, you know,
their acknowledgment of my work with the youth program.
How do you think the Kennedy Foundation feels
about the recent rumors swirling around your personal life?
[ Chuckles ] Let's not -- I'd rather talk about, you know,
my work with the foundation and, you know, or my game.
Full disclosure, we got an anonymous tip that your wife,
Gina Rodriguez, is having an affair.
Is that true?
[ Chuckles ]
Absolutely not.
Gina is my angel.
We are very happy. Thank you.
That's what they all say, but we're giving you
the opportunity right here to control your narrative.
So what is your response to the reports that your marriage
to the reality TV star has crumbled?
Hey, move on.
Come on, Julio.
She's a reality star. You can't really --
Hey. Listen.
-[ Laughing ] -Syleena, you're a nut.
Isn't she? I'm not mad at it, though.
-I know, darling. -[ Cellphone ringing ]
Hold on, ladies. My publicist is calling.
Oh, fancy.
What's up, Cameron? You know me now.
CAMERON: Girl, where have you been?
I've been blowing you up for over an hour.
I'm with some friends. What's up?
CAMERON: Check your texts, then call me back.
MAN: Reality star and superstar athlete husband...
GINA: Oh, fuck.
-What's up? -You all right?
GINA: You have to see this.
What?
He's fucking crazy. Fuck!
Cameron, what the fuck is this?
CAMERON: It wasn't me, Gina.
I swear. I kind of wish it was.
But I did not break this story.
Fuck.
-You all right? -I don't know what to do.
There's no fucking way I can go home.
He is fucking crazy.
What do I do?
Girl, you tripping over a little rumor?
You're a reality star.
The name of the game is deny, deny, deny some more.
It's your story. If you don't want to share it, then don't.
And you know what? What if you took control of the narrative?
Either way, you have to be in control.
You have to make the call, confirm it, deny it, whatever.
You have the power now. Trust me.
You're right.
It's fucking time I take control.
You're right. You're fucking right.
-I know. -Right.
Alright.
LAVAR: Vodka's here.
MONA: There.
We not going to talk about it?
MONA: Talk about what, Lavar?
I'm not no motherfucking mind reader.
If you got something that you want to say to me,
spit it out or let me get back to these books.
Pop's parole hearing letter, it came in, right?
So you gonna get him out, right, Auntie?
Do it look like I sit on the fuckin' parole board?
All I'm saying is it'll be real good to have him home,
back in charge.
You got a problem with the way I run shit around here?
Then take that shit up with H.R.
-Don't say shit to me. -LAVAR: Come on, Mona, chill.
Everybody know you been holding it real down
real nice since he been locked up.
Nice? That little nickel and dime shit that Linc had
before he got pinched up ain't shit compared to this
11 or 12 year business that I don't been running
and legitimized this shit.
And not to mention kept out ass out of the feds,
with your motherfucking ungrateful ass.
Man, here you go again.
Look, I'm just saying, he done been up for parole before.
And it'll be real good to have him home, especially with these
niggas on the East trying to rise up.
You think I can't take care of them little niggas?
I'm just saying, Linc know their peoples from way back.
But if it's war, it's war.
It's war then.
Whatever, man.
♪ Get behind it, can't afford to let it pass me ♪
[ Cellphone ringing ]
What's up, Mona?
MONA: Linc is up for parole.
Okay. Are you ready for that?
You know, the business has changed a lot since
he went away.
He's my fucking brother.
You think I'm gonna let my brother rot in prison?
Of course not. You know that's not what I meant.
I know those East Side boys still respect him.
MONA: Yeah, them niggas respect me, too.
But you know what this mean.
Yeah. I know.
He's fucking crazy.
No way in hell I'm gonna go home.
