- What's going on, sir?
- What's good with you?

- What'd you get to drink?
- Iced green tea.

- Same here, my bro.
- Premium, bro.

What's that, a muffin?

Yeah, bro, a little
apple cinnamon joint.

- What's going on with you?
How are you?

- I'm chilling, man.
I'm chilling.

Trying to process everything
that went on last night.

- It was dope.
I thought it was dope.

I thought it was odd
that and Cheryl wanted

to sit next to each other.

I wasn't gonna say
nothing but, you know,

it's more of, like,
a meet new people type thing.

Cheryl said
she had a good time.

- Yeah.
We've gotten to this point

to where, like,
everything is just natural.

That's more of my best friend

than she is my girlfriend
over anything.

You know what I mean?
I love Cheryl, bro.

Like, when do you move in?

Like, the thought
of everything

that goes into that
makes me anxious.

And I'm more so thinking about,
like, what could go wrong.

Bro, you just gotta jump
in it, man.

If it goes wrong, f*ck it.

- That sh*t scares me, bro.
That sh*t scares me.

And I've never talked
about this.

I mean, you're a positive
person so hearing you say like,

you focus on the negative,
it's just so odd to me, bro.

It's crazy because you know,
I see my dad

who's this strong Black man...
Stoic.

I never saw him talk about,
you know, his weaknesses.

I think for me,
I don't deal with my problems.

I just kinda deflect them,
and shun them off,

if you want me to keep it
a buck.

I don't like hurting
people's feelings.

It's like, I like Bri.

I think
she's an awesome person.

It's like, I wanna date her,
but it's like, I don't know,

if you want me to really
get down to it,

I feel like I'm not comfortable
enough in my own feelings.

I don't have a great
relationship with my father.

I saw my mom go
through a divorce,

and I saw how tough that was.

So I feel like I'm not thinking
like, ah, let me fall in love.

I don't know if I can
get myself to be like,

like, I'm open
and ready for you.

You just gotta have this
conversation with her, bro.

She doesn't know
that you're dealing with this.

And that's all you gotta
do is talk to her about it.

I feel like
she will understand.

I don't wanna open up
to anybody and then be, like,

left high and dry.

I feel like that's, like,
my, like, internal conflict.

- You won't be, bro.
- But I mean, it's like...

- I'll be right there with you.
I'll be right there.

Yeah, it's easy for you
to say that,

but It's like... and I don't
even wanna get emotional,

but it's like...

It's like, you can't
really understand and relate.

You get what I'm saying?

And I don't wanna go
through that sh*t.

You know what I'm saying?
At all.

Yeah.

I don't wanna keep
talking about this sh*t,

to keep it a buck, bro.

You good, bro, you good.

But yeah, man,

it's easier for me
to keep my emotions

in my inside rather than, like,
put them out there

and then get rejected
or anything of that sort.

You know what I'm saying?

It's really just
a tricky situation for me.

I don't know... it's just really
just a lot of self-sabotage.

It's like, on one end,
I want this, but another end,

I don't want to open up myself
too much and then

turn somebody off because
they don't like what they see.

I don't wanna deal
with that heartbreak

or, like,
the loss of the situation.

I've been through
too many relationships

that have gone in and out
of my life with friends,

you know, family, like,

that I'd rather just avoid
going through that pain

'cause it's not, like,
a situation

that anybody
likes to deal with.

If you don't want
to be emotionally close

to somebody,
you owe them to let them know.

Like, "Hey,
I just don't want to."

- Did you work today?
- Yes.

I was playing music, like,
just playing some music

while they were
doing their lesson.

And one girl said,
"Mr. Lee, you know our songs?"

- Okay.
- Hell yeah.

Hey, my age is
making these songs, so...

- Exactly.
- True, true, true, true, true.

Do you have some
exciting news for us?

- I do, so, y'all...
- Hey, hey.

I finally closed
on the property today.

I know that's right.

It's this house
in South Central.

The sellers were Black,
so it was, like, staying...

- That's so fire.
- In the Black community.

The seller's agent was Black.
My agent was Black.

So you know, I felt
like I was really keeping it

in the family
'cause the goal is always

to buy back the block.

My whole thing is
to buy Black the block.

It was kind of a play on words,
you know,

buy back the block
but also buy Black.

So, shop small, and local,
and Black.

And then also buy and put
equity in those communities.

I don't know anyone
at our age

that has even went
through that process.

It's just so commendable.

Like, I'm just kind of, like,
at a loss for words.

As long as you have
your ducks in a row,

as far as the financials and,
like, just save aggressively.

That's what I keep telling
people, just save aggressively.

Like, I don't even really know
what else to say.

- Just save.
- So hard sometimes.

[LAUGHTER]

How did you guys feel
about Legacy Table?

Fire, I'm like,
"Okay, this is why

I came to this city
right here."

- Were you inspired?
- Yes, for sure.

People literally were just
like, "Last night was magical."

Everyone was touched somehow
in that room without us

having to like, do too much.

- Go the extra mile.
- Yeah, yeah.

I felt like Jordan was
a little bit just absent.

He was really off a little
bit, yeah, a little distant.

I don't think he wanted
to be there.

Bri was acting weird, too.

Remember the last time
we saw her, well, I saw her?

What happened last time?

She was like,
"I don't f*ck with him.

I've never... don't
even look my way."

Mm-hmm.

But why
with that energy though?

I guess some things
were said at the gym

that she took personally and...

I was at the gym.

I don't understand
how that's f*cked up,

what he was saying or how
I, like, explained it to you.

So how did you explain it
to her, like, to...

Pretty much told her
the same thing you told me,

that she wanted to be... he
wanted to be

with someone who's just
as busy as him.

And that was the general
statement, and she kind of

took it like she wasn't
doing sh*t with her life.

Nah...

And that's something
that Bri is, like,

insecure about
and in her head about.

I just hate for me to be,
like, misinterpreted

'cause that's not the way
it happened at all.

The whole thing about
he just focused on work.

I shouldn't have even said
that to her cause I wouldn't

have said it if it's gonna be,
like, relayed.

I care about my face card
more than anything else.

My intention was to just
be there for my friend

and make sure that she's
not dealing with someone

who doesn't see her value.

And it ended up being
just a game of telephone.

Now Jay is affected,

and that's affecting
our relationship.

Bri is affected.

And that's the last thing
that I wanted to do.

'cause he gonna look at me

You gotta learn how to cook
for yourself, my brother.

I know how to cook.

The life that I'm living now,
I feel like my dad has lived

probably twice over
at this point.

And I value his opinion so much
and the wisdom

that he gained in those
experiences and feel like

he's definitely gonna be
able to give me some clarity.

So what's good with you?

Tylynn, she hosted
this dinner of this thing

that she calls, like,
the Legacy Table.

And it made me, you know,
just want to dig deeper into,

you know,
figuring out what my next steps

are personally
and what my legacy is.

The things I learned and
the lessons my mother taught me

being a single mom,
I tried to instill in you.

Always be a leader,
get educated, circle yourself

around people that can make
positive change in your life.

What do you think
about Cheryl?

I think she's a nice girl,
grounded.

I'm thinking
about moving out,

moving in with Cheryl.

- Really?
- Yeah.

- Why you say it like that?
- [LAUGHS]

'Cause you ain't
paying me no rent,

so I'm trying to figure
out why you so quick

to go pay somebody else
the rent.

We're splitting the rent.

I know you're
splitting the rent.

She must have put
some real mojo on you,

red sauce and everything.

You and Mommy have
raised me to understand

the things that I have to do to
be able to survive on my own.

All that you have sacrificed,
giving me, I wanna do stuff

that I know that I'm
not gonna let you down.

So you looking
for validation?

Not validation but like,
you know, like...

I never want you to
feel you gotta do something

to validate me just
because of what I did for you.

Don't ever do that.

You get ahead because you wanna
get ahead for yourself.

I've done what I can do.
I'm proud of you, Jerrold.

You've done a lot.

Damn, 'cause a lot
of people doubted you.

A lot of people doubted you.

So, you know,

don't ever feel like
you gotta validate me

'cause I'm always gonna
be there for you.

If you feel positive
about this move,

then by all means, do that.

I don't want you to be unhappy.

To hear my dad tell me
how proud he is of me,

it makes me feel amazing
and I want nothing more

in this world than
to make my parents proud.

f*ck, man.

How do you think
Mommy's gonna take it?

- You're a mama's boy.
- I'm...

She gon' cry.

But I keep telling her
it's time for you

to get off the titty.

I wish you would
stop saying that.

- I know, I'm sorry.

Y'all ready to go inside?

I'ma let you in.
You can walk straight through.

- Oh, yes, girl.
- Don't be alarmed, you know.

We under construction
and whatnot.

She done knocked out
the wall.

- So, thank y'all for coming.
I'm so happy.

I just want y'all to, like,
put on a little pantsuit

because we're about
to be painting.

You know I can't
get this fit dirty,

you know what I'm saying?

- So nobody else is painting?
- Real life painting.

No, Jerrold, just you.

I thought we was having,
like, a paint and sip.

You know what I'm saying?

It's like sharing paint.
We gonna paint something artsy.

Wait, so we just...

But that's not what
we're going for.

Can y'all just be careful
with my molding right here?

- The door frame.
- Oh, don't paint the molding.

I thought that we were here
to have a good time.

And here comes Amanda,

lugging us into the house
to paint her walls.

That's not what
I signed up for.

Amanda used us
for free labor today.

So, Jerrold, when are
you planning on moving in?

Trying to figure out the day.

I got... I'm getting
all my stuff packed.

- What?
So you actually gonna move in?

When I move
into the apartment,

what if she hates living
with me, bro?

- Does she hate you now?
- No, but I'm just saying.

Don't you go over there
every day anyway?

I'm just saying.

Look at him go,
look at him go.

You already with her
the morning breath phase.

Y'all... y'all...
For real, like you're good.

It can get no worse
than that.

Does it feel awkward though

between, like,
me and Jordan right now?

Or like...

I feel like he came through,
said hi,

and then you guys
haven't talked.

I just feel fake now.

Like, I just have
to be a fake friend

'cause, like, obviously I'm not
gonna, like, start a drama

or, like, a problem like...

Yeah, I mean,
if it's truly bothering you,

I think you should
let him know.

Let me talk
to you for a second.

What's good, bro?

sh*t, honestly, bro,
we just gotta clear the air.

What do you mean?

I know sh*t just got
a little weird with Bri.

Things got lost
in translation.

Exactly,
that telephone stuff, bro.

Appreciate you just kinda
talking to me about that, too,

'cause really, for me, man,

I am, like, a big, like,
conflict avoider.

I don't like talking
about stuff.

I ain't talk to her about it.

I mean, even with the drama
with you and I,

it's like we gonna be solid
through and through regardless.

- But you know what I'm saying?
- It's cleared and we agree.

- You feel me?
- Of course.

That's all that matters.

And we meant green
like the walls.

We meant green, you feel me?

It feels good to clear
the air with Jaylenn,

but it's almost bittersweet
because I've talked to

everybody else except for Bri,
who is the person who's upset.

And it's almost
a little awkward

because this whole
situation has been going on

for so long,
and we haven't talked.

- [SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY]
How are you?

I'm all right.

What's going on
with you though?

I've been chilling.

- Yeah?
You're so cold right now.

- What's going on?
- I'm not being cold.

I said I'm just chilling.
I'm fine.

- Yeah, that's cool.
- What's up?

You know,
I feel like there's been

so much stuff kind of
going on right now.

I feel like it would be better
for us to just kind of

like, talk in person.

Yeah, I appreciate that.

Yeah but I guess, like,
looking at our relationship

and all the stuff
that's been going on...

You mean, like,
the fact that you said,

like, I'm not doing sh*t?

See, I didn't say
that though.

Everyone has been,
like, saying,

"Okay, he didn't like,
essentially say that."

But for me, like,
it still kinda just

sounds like you said
I'm not doing sh*t.

I'm just like, you want to f*ck
with someone on your level,

and I'm just not your level,
not doing sh*t.

And, like, that just really
hurt my feelings honestly.

Like, that's just so mean.

Pretty much expressed
to them, like,

I don't really want to be
in a relationship right now

because I have a lot going on,

not just... with my business
primarily but in general,

just a lot going on as far
as, like, things for myself

I need to work on and never
specifically said,

you know,
Bri is not doing sh*t.

I just don't know how, like,
that would, like,

those specific words
would, like, come from like...

You know me better
than they know me.

Yeah, I do know you,
but you're not a consist...

- Would you know me to say...
- Don't cut me off.

Like, let me finish.

But you're not a consistent
person for me to know, like,

what you would and wouldn't do,
to be honest.

That's fair.

Have you ever seen me
say something like that

to you or anybody else... no.

But that's how you were
moving though

'cause I was trying to, like,
clear it up at Legacy Table.

You were moving like
you just didn't give a f*ck.

You just said that sh*t,
and that's what it is.

- 'Cause I was upset.
Would you... I don't want...

But like,
why were you upset with me?

- I didn't do anything.
- I wasn't upset with you.

I was upset with the entire
situation, with the people

who were involved in the
he says, she says stuff.

I don't like hearing
that you crying.

I feel like we didn't
really even need to, like,

have a conversation.

You could've just said, like,
"I didn't say that."

And we could've, like,
kept it pushing.

I don't think you would've
believed me though.

You said I'm too wishy-washy
to understand.

You are wishy-washy,
but I still... like,

if you're saying
you didn't say some sh*t,

I'm gonna listen to you,
you know?

I'm not just gonna
not believe you,

but it's like when you're just
avoiding the situation,

like you avoid all situations
with me, it's just like...

I don't avoid all of them.

- It's so up and down.
I'm just really over it.

Like, you made me feel
like a backstage b*tch.

I'm not f*cking
with that sh*t at all.

And I just don't know what type
of person you think I am

what type of girl you think
I am that I'm just gonna sit

here and wait for you to decide

that you wanna f*ck
with me now.

Like, I'm
not with that sh*t at all.

I don't want you to wait
for me, to be honest with you.

I require 100%
and I just feel like

if you know that you're
not in a position to do that,

then why even, like, attempt
to pursue me at all?

Whole reason I keep
going back and forth is

because I like you obviously.

Why do you, like, play,
like, weird games?

I really just don't have time
for that.

I feel like it's low-key
disrespectful

to me as a person.

I just don't necessarily
know what I wanna do.

On one end,
I wanna date you.

But then the other end,
it's like,

I just feel very overwhelmed
from an emotional standpoint

and from a business standpoint
where it's, like,

a lot for me to process,
and it's like,

I'm sorry for just kind of
putting you through that.

It's kind of, like, a selfish

kind of, like,
position of things

and, like, not really looked
at it from your side.

I just feel like emotionally,
like, I'm just... I can't just,

like, go through with that,
so I just feel like,

for the sake
of our real friendship,

like, we should
definitely just be friends

because, like, if this
continues on like that,

like, I'm just not gonna f*ck
with you at all.

And I don't want that.

Being able to sit down
and have this conversation

with you is just so
different for me.

Me, too, so I feel like
that's growth

on both of our parts.

I'm super happy you came
in the first place.

I didn't think you were
gonna come, to be honest.

Honestly, yeah,
I didn't wanna come.

Typically, I would just,
like, block your number

and move forward with my life.

I feel like we're
on the same page.

I wanna be friends.

You sound like
you wanna be friends.

I feel like we're
on the same page.

- Yes.
- Close the door.

I want to close... the door
is being shut.

Shut it, lock it,
throw the key away.

Jordan Bentley triggers me.

If he thought
I just wasn't doing sh*t

or I was a weak a*s b*tch,
he knows now

I am a strong,
independent Black woman,

and I'm not going for none
of that sh*t from no one,

especially not you.

I felt like you was gonna cry
or something like that, too.

I'm not crying
over any n*gg*s, 2021.

Bri and I,
we never really got it right.

We both have a lot of things
to work on

so it's probably best
for us to be single.

But you know, who knows?

Down the line,
we may rekindle something.

We have such
a good foundation,

and I have so much love
for Bri, so who knows?

Good, so I have
to do hella sh*t today.
