Have we found the one?
All right, so let's see.
That is amazing.
Oh. [Chuckles] Thank you.
Yes, I like to gift each of my clients
with a personal one-of-a-kind painting
with each closing.
Just a token of my appreciation.
Wait, you... You painted that?
Yes. It's one of my favorite pastimes.
It's beautiful.
Do you have any more like it?
Oh, yes, I have quite a few.
Interesting. Mm.
All right, now, if you look here...
Okay.
You'll see in the agreement...
Uh-huh. My children's names.
Okay. Yes.

What's up? What you up to?
Oh, um, just came back to my office

I got this one o'clock meeting.
What about you?
Ah, you know, same old, same old.
I, um, had a great presentation.
I got promoted. I finished up
that work on the TJK project.
Hold up. Run that back.
Uh, you got the promotion?
Yeah.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
How are we gonna celebrate?
Uh, I don't know.
We need to do something.
Oh, don't even worry about it.
Look, um, you need
to come over tonight.
I'm gonna cook you up something good.
We're gonna pop a bottle and celebrate.

-Hey. All right. Cool.
Let's do it. Hey, can we do lamb chops?
Oh, you know I got you.
All right. I'll text you later.
Okay, cool. Yeah, I'm running late.
Okay, love you. Bye.
All right. Love you too.

[tranquil music resumes]
Thanks.
[exhales]
-Oh. Okay.
-Whoa.
-Sorry. [Chuckles]
-[chuckles]
Lamb? Nice.
A home-cooked meal
by a beautiful woman.
-Your husband's a lucky man.
-[chuckles] Very clever.
But no, I'm not married.
I'm actually single, Mr...
Franklin. Corey Franklin.
I'm Queen.
-You most certainly are.
-[chuckles]
-Can I have my hand back?
-Oh.
-[chuckles]
-My fault. [Laughs]
I'm sorry.
That's okay.
Um, listen, I hate to cut it short,
but I gotta get going.
Oh, you got a wife at home
waiting for you to bring home the milk?
[chuckles]
No, I'm just as single as you are.
-Hm. Okay.
-But I would love
to connect later when we have more time
to get to know one another.
-I'd like that.
-Oh.
-Queen.
-Hm.
Well, I look forward to seeing you.
You too, King. I mean, Corey.
I see what you did there.
[Queen chuckles]
[cell phone ringing]
Hello?
So, I was thinking
we could have a date tomorrow night.
Tomorrow could work.
I'll send you the details.
I look forward to it.
[mellow music playing]
-[chuckles]
-Exactly.
-Yeah.
-[chuckles]
-[Queen] All right.
-Are we ready?
Yes, we are.
-Mm-hm. Mm-hm.
-Yes, we are.
-There you go.
-Gracias.
-De nada.
-Smells amazing.
Yes, it does. I did that. [Laughs]
-Damn. Salud.
-Looks really good.
Yes. See?
You always know exactly what I need
before I even know I need it.
-[chuckles]
-I need you.
-That's enough?
-That's plenty. Thank you.
[grunts]
Mm.
Okay.
So, what did you get me
for my promotion gift?
[scoffs] Oh.
What makes you think
I got your big head anything?
Okay, well, where's it at?
-I know how you do.
-What?
-Hm.
-Uh...
What? [Groans]
[mumbles] Donde estas?
Okay. Okay. You can
stop tearing up my house.
-Here you go.
-[laughs]
Gracias.
Yo.
[Queen chuckles]
-What?
-You like it?
Get out of here. Do I like it?
-That's crazy.
-[giggles]
This is the one where I could... Oh, man.
Yo, this is perfect.
Yo, you got this
from the Franklin Library?
Nah. [Chuckles]
Yo, you went deep into geek land
for this one, yo.
Yeah. Anything for you.
-Thank you, yo.
-I got you.
Always. Let's see
what these lamb chops about.
I saw you put your foot over there in it.
Okay. Hallelujah. Thank you, Jesus.
Martin Luther King. Muhammad.
Amen.
[clears throat]
-I'm probably gonna mess it up.
-Mm-hm.
You really... You really...
-Okay.
-Hold on.
-Are you good?
-No. Oh. Yeah.
I can't even get... Yes.
You trying to be all Asian on the floor.
I don't know what I was thinking.
It's cute, though. I like that.
-[Marcel] Mm.
-[Queen] Mm.
[Marcel] This was worth
the promotion right here.
I'm trying to tell you.
[downtempo music playing]
-[sighs]
-Mm-hm.
[moans] You staying the night?
Mm-hm. If you want me to.
[chuckles softly] If it was
up to me, you'd never leave.
[upbeat music playing]
-Hello, Ms. Diaz.
-Hi.
-Wow, this is beautiful.
-Yes, absolutely.
-Three bedrooms, two baths.
-Plenty of storage?
And it's in a beautiful neighborhood.
Oh, and we got some friendly
neighbors. Just smile and wave.
-That's weird.
-Yeah.
So, it's three bedrooms and two baths.
-And one connected to the other?
-Oh, you know what?
Let's just show you.
-Just a little... stuck.
-Oh, my goodness.
-[laughs]
-[grunts]
It's okay. We got these
neighbors. They're really...
-Uh... [laughs]
-Don't worry. I've got the key.
-Oh, my goodness.
-[chuckles]
[upbeat music playing]
[exhales]
[chuckles]
[line ringing]
-[cell phone ringing]
-Oh.
Um, let me grab this real quick.
-Sorry.
-[woman] Okay.
[giggles]
This is Queen.
Hey, gorgeous. Catch you at a bad time?
[chuckles]
No, not at all.
Listen, you've been on my mind all day,
and I was wondering,
would you like to come over for dinner?
Are you inviting me over?
I am absolutely inviting you over.
Well, in that case, I'd love to.
[chuckles]
[chuckles]
Perfect. Well, I will send you
all the details,
and I'll see you tonight.
[chuckles]
Okay. Bye.
Oh.
-Ma. [Chuckles]
-Oh?
-What?
-I just wanna know who
who... who... Who was that?
That was Corey, the guy I'm seeing.
Oh, well, who is Corey?
-He's new, Ma. I mean...
-Uh...
Just... It's fine. [Laughs]
-So, wait a minute.
-What?
Has he met Marcel?
I don't see why that matters.
Marcel is not my daddy.
No, he's not your daddy,
but he is very protective of you.
[chuckles] Well, he doesn't have to worry
because Corey
has my stamp of approval.
-Ooh. Okay.
-Mm.
-[giggles]
-So, when do I get to meet him?
Not yet. Okay? This is a lot to handle.
[laughs] Can I get
to meet him fully first?
-I promise. You will.
-Okay. Mm-hmm.
All right. I ain't mad at you.
But I'm gonna head out.
I gotta get ready for...
Oh, so you cutting our time short?
Mom, we will catch up later.
-I promise. Okay?
-[sighs]
I just thought we were gonna
go have dinner,
-go shopping.
-You had all the plans.
We probably should have
discussed that. I love you.
All right. I love you too. Mwah. Mwah.
Now, we gonna get back
to that shopping, though.
-Oh, yeah. Yeah.
-Okay. [Laughs]
Uh-huh.
-[humming]
-[sighs]
Hmm. Got it from your mama.
[chuckles]
[Corey] Best I could ever do
was stick figures,
so I don't know. [Laughs]
[Queen] You're gonna
have to work on that.
Well, not everybody
can be a great artist like you.
That is true.
So, I've heard about this art you do,
but I've never seen it.
You're right.
And you are actually in luck.
-Am I?
-Yes, you are.
Mm. Because I brought some with me.
-Oh. So, I get a treat today.
-You do.
-An iPad. Okay.
-Always be prepared.
So...
Wow.
[chuckles]
[chuckles]
Wow. Queen, these are amazing.
I mean, of course they are. I did them.
-Oh, that girl good.
-Mm, sexy chocolate.
Well, I see that's where your heart is.
Wow, real estate.
-In all honesty, adulting...
-It will get you every time.
Yeah. I mean, my dad
has always done real estate,
so I knew there was good money.
And when I came home with
my tail tucked between my legs,
my dad just gave me
a job in the mail room.
And I worked my way up.
So, now I just use my art
to clear my mind and relax.
Yeah.
I get it.
I, um...
I had dreams of playing in the NFL.
-Oh.
-But, uh, one bad play,
ten years later, I am
coaching instead of playing.
Mm. Sorry.
Yeah. Don't get me wrong,
I love mentoring the kids,
but I miss it.
-Mm.
-Yeah.
The rush of game day,
the roar of the crowd,
the smell of turf. [Chuckles]
I miss it all.
Yeah. I get you.
I mean, my major in college
was fine arts.
I had dreams of my name
being mentioned
alongside Jean-Michel Basquiat
and Augusta Savage.
I mean, art is my passion,
but it don't pay the bills.
So, two years after college, I am broke.
-I mean, broke.
-[chuckling]
No prospects, no money, no job.
I mean, I was taking Marcel's car
to drive back and forth to interviews
and sleeping on his couch.
-[groans]
-Yeah.
That struggle life just wasn't for me.
So, you know, when my
last tube of paint was done,
I was done too.
Well, I'm glad that you still
have your passion,
because you are damn good.
And this world would be a colder place
without your gift in it.
Thank you.
No, Queen.
Thank you for sharing
your world with me.
You're welcome, Mr. Corey.
-Now get out the way. Okay?
-Girl, you always cheating.
I've been trying
to break this thing forever.
Bust this shirt open
and distract you some more?
I don't think that will work,
but you can try it if you want.
-Go ahead, take your shot.
-I'm just gonna keep...
See, now I'm just hitting balls...
I'm sorry. I need to warm up.
You go ahead.
-Now, have a seat.
-Have a seat?
-Now, we'll have Daddy do it. Look.
-Let's see.
-Ain't even gonna look.
-And you better be good.
Pow. Trick shot.
-You got a home table to practice on.
-Home-court advantage?
-Yeah, that's it. That's it.
-You got excuses, excuses, excuses.
But you didn't get a ball in the hole,
though, did you? So, uh, let's see.
I put the ball in the hole
more times than you think.
Now, check that out.
Balls moving everywhere.
[line ringing] -[Marcel]
There you go. Come on.
Give me that.
[Queen] Hey, Bighead.
Yo, what's up, Queenie?
What you doing, Fathead? Get online.
Getting ready to meet up with Corey.
Okay. Who is Corey?
You got new clients and stuff?
Corey is my date.
A date? Nigga, with who?
He's really sweet, and
I'm meeting him again tonight.
"Again"? As in you've been
out with him before.
And you're just not telling me?
That's crazy. See?
See how you don't be telling
me stuff? That's what I'm saying.
Look, but anyway, I'm
running late, so let me just...
I'll hit you up when I get back. Okay?
-All right? Love you.
-Okay.
-Bye.
-Have fun.
Damn.
[gunfire on video game]
Hm.
[Queen] Yes, I do.
[moans]
All right, now, we got guests coming.
Send them to the other room.
Ooh. Okay.
But honestly, I'm a little bit nervous.
Oh, I got you. Don't be nervous.
Okay. Well, if you wanna run,
now is the time.
-Hm?
-Run?
Mm-hm.
Girl, I'm an OG in this thing.
I don't run.
-I glide.
-Oh.
-Mmm.
-[moans] Mm.
Okay. All right. We gonna see.
Yes, we are.

[doorbell rings]
[lively music playing]
Ooh.
-Is he here?
-Uh, hello, to you, too, ma'am.
Girl, I saw you earlier today, okay?
I'm here to see God's specimen only.
So, a lot more showing
and a little less talking.
-Okay. He's in the kitchen.
-All right?
-All right.
-Uh, behave.
-Eh. Corey.
-Oh.

-Hey, boo.
-So good to see you. Come on in.
-You too.

-Oh, you was lucky last time, okay?
Don't let it go to your head.
Yes, sir.
-Look at you.
-Straight from work.
-Hey, you look good.
-How you doing?
-Hi, gorgeous.
-Look at you.
-It's you for me.
-Uh-uh.
Now, you know you're disrespectful.
Honey, it's the blonde for me.
-Where the ding-a-ling at?
-Oh.
Ain't no unassigned
ding-a-ling in here yet,
so you better be careful.
What's going on, girl? Watch your door.
Hey, where your fine friend at?
-Why did you come with a cup?
-The one with the baby daddy?
-Just go find her.
-I see you. All right, now.
-Hey!
-You good?
-Okay. Hell, yeah.
-Oh, yes.
-You look more like confidence now.
-Thank you.
-You good?
-Um, actually, I wanted to talk to you.
Um, I'm gonna need you to be on
your best behavior today, okay?
-Okay.
-No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Um, like, I really like him. So...
[chuckles]
As long as he good to you, I'm good.
-Cool?
-Cool.

I'm looking for Ms. Queen Mills?
Um, speaking.
-[mouthing]
-Ms. Mills.
My sister just bought
a lovely property from you.
And she told me about the lovely
painting you gifted her.
Oh, yes. All my clients get a personal,
one-of-a-kind painting with each closing.
Um, are you interested
in purchasing a home?
No, not a home.
I'm interested in your work.
My work?
You mean my paintings?
Yes.
I own an art gallery, and I...
I'd like to offer you an artist exhibit.
Y... Yes, yes. Yes, I do.
I'm... I'm so sorry.

Okay. Thank you. Thank you so much.
Thank you.
-Okay.

[cell phone ringing]
Hello?
[chuckles] Queenie.
Your Royal Highness.
How can I help you?
Marcel, you will not believe
what just happened.
Ah, yeah?
Just tell me. What's up?
Okay, so one of my clients
has some brother
who owns an art exhibit.
He saw one of my paintings,
and now he wants me
to do my own exhibit.
What?
Yo, Queenie. That's amazing.
Thank you.
I guess all that trouble
you used to get into
for painting all over
your mama's walls paid off.
[Marcel and Queen chuckle]
-Don't do that.
-Do what?
That thing you do where you talk
yourself out of an opportunity
before you even get to see where it goes.
What if nobody likes it?
What if nobody likes my work?
And what if they all like it,
and it sells out?
Ain't that what you always wanted?
Yeah, but... [grunts]
Queenie.
Yeah, I'm still here.
Look, do not worry, all right?
I'll be right there with you,
cheering you on the whole time.
Just like always.
This is yours, Queenie.
Thank you.
I love you.
[chuckles] I love you too.
Now call that man back
and walk into your destiny.
This is for you.
Okay?
Okay. Bye.
[sighs]
I'm so sorry.
I have to go.
This has been really nice.
And I'm sorry, I have to run.
Thank you.

You got something in there that

So, I need you to get

There's an understanding Unspoken
Excuse me, Queen? Hi.
I'm Holly, Jared's assistant,
and he has someone
that he'd like you to meet.
Frank, this is the artist that
you were interested in meeting.

-This is Frank Mills,
the curator of Boutique Fashion Week.

and this is my first exhibit? Like...
Yes, I can believe it.
I knew you were gonna crush it.
This is beyond impressive, Queen.
-Thank you.
-I mean, the way that people
flocked to your show, it lets me know
we need to have a conversation
about future shows.
Uh, you wanna have
another show with me?
Absolutely.
I mean, it's not often
that we get to represent us
in ways that are received
and appreciated by all.
I think you have a very bright
future ahead of you, young lady.
Thank you. [Chuckles]

You need to go.
I need to be by myself right now.
Why are you still here?

Shit.
Okay. Queenie.
-Look, look, look.
-[grunts]
Listen.
Take a shower, all right?
Try to relax.
-Get some coffee.
-[groans]
Queenie. We'll talk about it
when I get back.
What we doin' Babe
What we doin' Babe
That's nice.
[cell phone ringing]
[chuckles]
Boobie. What's got you smiling
like you just came back from Columbia
getting a fresh set?
[laughs] Hey, you stupid, man.
But don't be talking about my
veneers like that. You like them?
Oh, my God. How was the exhibit?
I saw some of the pictures y'all posted.
They look good. Sis did her thing.
Yo, she killed it.
She definitely killed it.
So, did y'all do it? Huh?
Finally, did y'all finally do it?
Um, well...
She thinks we're married.
-Excuse me?
-Yeah, yeah.
We, uh, we got a
little too tipsy last night.
We ended up going to the beach.
We crashed a beach wedding.
We blacked out.
And then she woke up
with a ring on her finger.
So, she thinks we're married.
A ring? What? Huh?
Well, that's... You're not
gonna tell the truth, are you?
Of course. I got to.
It's Queenie. We don't lie to each other.
But you gonna lie to me?
What?
I've never lied to Queenie, yo.
Come on, boobie.
If anyone knows the truth, it's me.
I know how much you love her.
Listen right here.
'Cause y'all both keep lying
to each other anyway, so...
We tell each other
we love each other all the time.
She my best friend.
[stammers] You almost
made me call you out your name.
You know that's not the kind
of love I'm talking about.
You guys been had
this connection that's timeless.
That love y'all have is undeniable.
It's been that way
since you was, like, 14.
Damn, you're right.
Yeah, I know I'm right.
Big sis is always right. Yeah.
I can't see myself with no one else.
[scoffs] And neither can I.
'Cause all them little hussies
used to parade around,
they have nothing on Queen, okay?
So, I'm just saying,
if she think y'all married,
just leave it like that.
-Damn.
-Like...
Look, just make her fall in love with you.
And then, maybe by the time
y'all get back,
we could be planning a wedding
and a baby shower.
Ooh! [Laughing] Juice.
I'm excited. Okay. This is happening.
Okay.
Bye, boy.
[Queen groans]
[stammers] Marcel, wake up.
Hm. Hm?
[groans]
What's up? You okay?
Uh, no, I'm not okay.
Um, and we can't tell anyone about this.
And we need to get this annulled
as soon as possible.
We can't.
We
[grunts] What do you mean, we can't?
I talked to the guy
whose wedding we crashed.
He said the courts is closed
for the rest of the week.
The holiday.
So, we're gonna have to come
back some other time and do it.
[Queen groans]
[sighs]
Damn it.
[Queen sighs]
Okay.
All right, Queenie.
Listen.
-[sighs]
-Listen.
Here's what we're gonna do, Queenie.
We'll keep our mouth closed.
We won't tell anyone
until we can get this fixed.
Promise.
[chuckles] Queenie, I pinky promise.
Mouth closed from here forward.
-Okay?
-Okay.
Hey, we got this.
Fine.
What we doin' Babe
[mellow music playing]
Oh. Oh. They just pulled up.
They just pulled up. Okay.
[stifled squealing]
I'm gonna need a second.
[all] Congratulations!
Mm-mm. Mm-mm. My bad.
You don't... You don't wanna... I
don't think you wanna go in there.
[Queen] I'm too tired for this. Let me in.
Baby, I'm trying to tell you that...
[all] Congratulations!
[cheering]
Without consulting with my wife and I.
Yeah, no.
We... We would have preferred to, uh...
You see, we definitely wanted to, uh...
You know, it all just
happened so suddenly.
I mean, you know what kind of
man I am. We would have rather...
-It's happened very...
-But...
There's not another man
walking the face of this earth
more worthy of my
daughter's love than you.
Yes. Welcome to the family, son.
-[Jasmine] Whoo!
-[all laughing]
My baby's a bride.
-Officially.
-[chuckles]
Officially. Officially.
[mellow music playing]
Ooh. Ooh. Oh. [Chuckles] Oh.
[chuckling nervously]
[exhales]
Uh...
Wow. [Chuckles nervously]
Oh, baby. We are so elated for you guys.
We've only been planning this
since the day you two were born.
-[Michelle] Right. We have.
-Uh, it's above my pay grade.
This is happening.
[chuckles nervously]
Since the two of you decided to elope
and not give us time to plan anything,
-we need to get a move on it.
-Immediately.
So, we're thinking a winter wedding.
[Jasmine gasps] Dang.
[Piper] Oh, this is...
I can see it right now.
A winter wonderland of love.
Oh, that's beautiful -Oh, beautiful.
It's beautiful. I love it, auntie.
-A winter wonderland of love.
-Oh. I guess if y'all agree.
-Yes.
-Are you all right?
-Yes.
-[Michelle] Oh.
-[grunts nervously]
-You're gonna love it.
And the colors. Ice blue.
And what else? Silver.
-[Michelle] Oh.
-Oh.
-[Piper] Okay.
-[Michelle] Yes.
Right. And a tiara.
-Yes, you need a tiara.
-Oh, my God.
And now we have to talk about
who's gonna perform.
-And we have to have a band.
-Yes.
Oh, sis, you know what?
No. A symphony.
A symphony?
You get that? Ice blue.
-Ice blue.
-Right there, babe.
-All right.
-Girl.
Who let all these people in my house?
-We did.
-Uh...
-But...
-You know what? I'll leave.
Go.
Yay.
[giggles] - [Jasmine]
I know, I know, I know.
Look, just go with the flow, okay?
It's... It's easier that way.
I mean, they've been praying
for this for years. Okay?
And you know that I'm gonna be extra.
-[chuckles nervously] Yeah.
-[laughs]
-This is a lot.
-[gasps]
What? No, come on.
-Give us a little baby and everything.
-Oh!
-No. Stop it.
-Wh... Wh... What? Wait.
Aw. I'm just saying,
it's kind of, you know.
Sweetheart, I am so proud of you
that you're getting married.
But I know you, and I know
that look on your face.
What's going on?
I just don't wanna ruin our friendship.
Sweetheart, if you follow
your heart, you can't go wrong.
-So, I'd like to make a toast.
-Yes.
To the most deserving couple
that I know of.
-Yes.
-Marcel.
You might have not known, but we did.
We saw this coming a long time ago.
A very long time ago.
And with my beautiful daughter.
So, salud to you guys.
-[Piper] Oh. Salud.
-[All] Salud.
And this grandma
can't wait for some grand babies.
-Ooh.
-[Piper] Oh.
-And the biggest ring.
-[Marcel] Okay.
-Kinda rushing it, ain't ya?
-Okay. Yeah.
You are too. And don't you
tell me something like that shit.
Where is it coming from?
[Jasmine] Let me go straight to the fact
that there's double the flavor.
[Marcel] Especially
when you have the chemistry
with them.
You ride the energy even more.
[Jasmine] Listen, this chemistry
project gonna blow up the flavor.
-Go for it.
-Damn.
Okay, so look, if y'all just follow
my lead, it's gonna all work out.
First of all, you already
know all the stuff she like.
[Marcel] But "Operation
In Love"? Are you serious?
[Jasmine] Yes. Well,
y'all already in love.
They're from Marcel.
Look here, I'm gonna need you
to keep your mouth shut on details, see?
Oh. [Chuckles]
Looks like he's, um,
thinking about you, per usual.
Mm-hm.
Mind your business.
Okay.
[knocking on door]
I know this woman
forgot about our wine tasting.
Queen.
Queen.
[chuckles] I told you
I had to get a fresh towel.
Oh, my God.
Corey.
-What are you doing here?
-Looks like I'm about to skip
-a wine tasting, honestly.
-[door opens]
Uh...
-I see.
-No, no, no. Corey, Corey.
This is not what it looks like,
I promise. Uh...
No. It's exactly what it looks like.
Congratulations.
Corey.
You know, from what
she's told me about you,
I know you treat her right.
So, you haven't told him about us?
Why couldn't you just stay
in there a little longer?
Why would you do that
while he's still here?
So, you cannot tell him
about us. Once again.
Marcel, what "us"?
Hm?
The only reason why this
wedding hasn't been called off
is because I don't wanna
disappoint our parents.
That's it.
Is that the only reason,
or is there something else?
[lively music playing]
-Oh, we have got to get started.
-Yes, I know.
It's gonna be here before we know it.
Yes. Is the wedding planner on her way?
-Yes, she is on her way.
-Oh, good, good, good.
-Okay, so we have flowers.
-Yes.
What kind of flowers?
I'm thinking calla lilies.
-Oh.
-I had them in my wedding.
-Yes, and they were beautiful.
-Yes, they were.
Remember how the orchids draped?
-Yes. Those are pretty too.
-Yes.
-Or the roses.
-Both are. Or we could do both.
-Yeah, that's true.
-Right? Okay, we have the wine.
[Corey] You know, from
what she's told me about you,
I know you treat her right.
-Queenie.
-Uh, yes, Ma.
Um, what colors, baby?
Hm. You two should pick.
Okay, well, anyway,
Marcel's favorite color is gray.
-Really?
-Yes.
-I was thinking about a green.
-I love that.
-[Piper] Mm.
-[Michelle] All right.
-So, we have the gray, possibly.
-That cake is good. Oh!
-Which one? The coconut?
-With the raspberry.
Raspberry. Let's go with the raspberry.
[upbeat music playing]
-[Leon] Gentlemen.
-[Marcel] Hey.
-Hey. What's going on?
-What's going on?
-How you doing?
-I'm doing good, man. Good.
-Marcel. How you doing, bro?
-What's up, champ?
-How you doing, boy?
-Good. Doing good, man.
-How you living?
-Good, man.
These women are deep in my pocket.
-Man, tell me about it.
-[Marcel] Hm.
[laughs] Hell, I thought we was
only paying for the honeymoon.
That damn Michelle done gave me
every receipt under the moon.
[Leon and Scott laugh]
Bro, we might as well renew
our vows at the same time.
[Scott] Might as well. [Laughs]
Hmm. What's up?
What's going on, man?
Queenie giving you a hard time already?
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.
She's good. We good.
I mean, we're not arguing or
nothing like that. It's just, um...
To be honest, man, I don't
really know what's going on.
You know?
Are we making
the right decision or what?
So, uh, you think you might need
some premarital counseling, son?
[Leon] Yeah.
Damn, Pop,
I never even thought about that.
Hey, something to think about.
[Marcel] Mm.
Hey, you know what? Since
all three of us are drinking,
hell, just bring the
whole bottle over here.
-We got action.
-There we go.
Go.
-There you go.
-Appreciate it, Pop.
You know, Scott.
I think that's a great idea.
Marriage counseling, man.
How about I just go on
and call Reverend Davis
and get you to a session set up?
Please, Pop.
I got you.
-Yeah.
-I got you, son.
I was supposed to be going over
my client's checklist
to deliver in the next hour.
But here I was,
looking at a wedding registry
created by my new mother-in-law.
Now, don't get me wrong.
Michelle has impeccable taste.
And the gifts were right up my alley.
[cell phone buzzing]
But this wasn't right.
I mean, here I was ducking
and dodging wedding planning
all because I was scared of the
outcome of me telling the truth.
Oh, Queen, my dear.
Uh, your mama just called, and I told her
that you had already left
for the bridal shop.
[chuckles] Why would you tell her that?
I'm pretty sure I asked
you to cancel that.
Uh-uh. No, ma'am.
See, when I called to cancel,
they told me that they have
strict orders from Piper
not to cancel anything.
-Then I guess I better be going.
-I guess you better.
Oh, don't forget, you got an 8 o'clock
dinner reservation with Marcel.
Now, you know, I usually try to
mind the business that pays me.
Well, you pay me, don't you?
-Uh, yes, I do.
-Okay, then.
-[chuckles]
-Now, look.
Have you ever thought
that just, like, maybe
Marcel really is the man of your dreams?
Okay, Queen, hear me out.
Now, honey, I know you don't
wanna ruin a friendship.
I get that.
But, honey, what if this
friendship is the foundation
for a long and happy marriage
with a man that happens to adore you?
You just think about it.
And come on here,
'cause you're not gonna
tell your mama I made you late.
[jazzy music playing]
I'm excited. Okay.
You've done this before?
I'm kidding, I'm kidding,
I'm kidding. Okay.
So, I've got tons of options for you.
I've got designer dresses.
I've got sequins.
Ladies, feel free to look
at whatever you want to look at.
Uh, we've got strapless. We've got...
If you need a sleeve,
I have a sleeve for you.
-However you're feeling.
-Oh.
Okay. I'm liking that reaction.
That is very exciting to me.
-Going to find the right dress out here.
-Yeah, well, you know,
we've got all kinds here,
and I think there's just different trends,
different things going on. Okay.
-You're Mom, right?
-[Piper] Yes.
Look at what Mom
has picked out for you.
-Sparkles. I...
-Okay.
-Mother of the groom?
-[Michelle] Yes.
Okay, so she's got something
more classic.
-[Michelle] Yes.
-Very princess-like, for a queen.
All right. If you ladies need
any champagne or anything,
give me a holler.
I'm gonna go put these down.
-[Piper] All right.
-I'll take a refill.
I love this. Oh, that's gorgeous.
[Michelle] It's gorgeous.
-Oh, she needs a tiara. Mm.
-Oh, yeah.
Uh, auntie. I was thinking
more of a crown for the queen.
I mean, you know what I'm saying?
-Maybe.
-You okay?
Um, yeah, yeah. Mm-hm.
Queen.
-Hm?
-Are you sure?
Yeah. Yeah, I'm good.
-Okay.
-[chuckles nervously]
[chuckles nervously]
-Now, this is the one.
-Mm-hm.
It's fine. I mean, your dad's
paying for all of this anyway.
-Absolutely gorgeous. So pretty.
-Thanks.
Okay, look. What do you think?
-Let's see here. Okay.
-Yeah.
Looks perfect.
Thanks.
-Oh.
-Mm-hm.
You get two of them, in fact.
I do love this one.
This would be perfect for the reception.
Uh, why not a third one?
-You want one too?
-A third one?
[lively music playing]
[woman] Mm-mm.
None of these dresses are you.
-How can you tell?
-[chuckles]
I've been doing this for years.
I always know when a bride
isn't being true to herself.
Either you don't love him,
or the dresses aren't giving you
what you truly want.
No.
I love him more
than I've ever loved anyone.
[scoffs] Did I really
just say that out loud?
Oh, you did. [Chuckles]
But your eyes told me
that you love him, though.
And now we just need to find a dress
that you truly love.
I've got the perfect thing. Hang on.
[pensive music playing]
I think this is it.
-Wow.
-Mm-hm.
Why don't I leave you two
alone for a minute?
You can get one with the dress.
[chuckles]
-And, um, you know what?
-Yes.
-Let me hang it up for you.
-Yes, thank you.
[inaudible dialogue]
-[cell phone buzzing]
-Oh.
-[voice breaking] Hello?
-[Marcel] What?
What? What's wrong?
[voice breaking] Nothing, nothing.
It's just that we're at the bridal shop,
and Queen just tried on
the most beautiful dress.
-[mouthing] Oh, my God.
-Damn.
[sniffles]
Uh-oh.
You're having second thoughts?
-Yeah, I am. Look.
-Oh.
Things are getting out of hand
now, okay?
Our fathers are sitting here
talking about
going to marriage counseling.
Well, I'm gonna tell you
what you're gonna do.
You're gonna shut the hell up,
and you're gonna
get out of your feelings.
You finally have the opportunity
to marry the woman of your dreams.
Now, she in there done tried on
this beautiful dress.
Ooh, and this one is cute too.
-Yeah, but it's not mutual.
-[groans]
I feel like I'm tricking
her into something
-that she does not want.
-No, it...
It might have started off as a trick.
But it ain't no trick no more.
Look, I say just go to
the counseling session
and tell her how you really feel.
-Okay.
-Okay?
Okay. Yeah. Yeah, you're right.
-Don't muck this up.
-Yeah.
-Okay.
-All right.
[mouthing] Bye.
Oh, child. What is you,
Gladys the Friendly Ghost?
When did you come around that corner?
What... What's wrong?
Why are you looking at me like that?
I need you to repeat what was just said.
What was said?
Who is Marcel tricking, Jasmine?
What? I don't know what
you're talking about. And, um...
Whatever you thought
you heard was said
better not get back to Queen.
And if it does?
Oh, baby, this ain't what you want.
No, but this is clearly what you want.
[woman] Ladies, we're ready for you.
[both] We'll be right there. [Chuckling]
Like I said, this ain't what you want.
Always the ones from the suburbs
can't bust a grape.
Hm. That's okay.
I got something for that. Tsk.
[tender music playing]
[chuckles]
-Waiting for someone, handsome?
-Mm-hm.
-Well.
-Hm.
-What?
-[chuckles]
No. Just looking extra beautiful today.
It's like you're glowing
out here or something.
[chuckles] Well, today
did start off kind of shaky,
but it turned itself around.
-Really?
-Mm-hm.
Does that have anything to do
with you finding
the perfect wedding dress?
What? Did you see my dress?
Are you serious?
Jasmine. Ooh, I'm gonna get her.
-She knows that's bad luck.
-Okay, all right, all right.
Calm down, Queenie, okay?
Nobody showed me your wedding dress.
They just told me you finally found it.
Your sister can't hold water in a bucket.
Mm.
Did you really find the right one?
Yeah, I really did.
Yeah?
Okay.
Well, let's go have some dinner.
Let's celebrate you finding
the perfect wedding dress.
-Let's. Uh, but first...
-What?
Can I have my present?
Uh, what are you talking about?
-My present.
-What present?
-My present.
-Yeah.
-Give it to me.
-Hm.
-I'm gonna give it to you.
-You know what?
I got a present for your
fat head, there. Come on.
[tender music playing]
All right, I'll, uh...
-I'll text you in the morning.
-Oh, okay.
-And this is for you.
-Oh. About time.
-Don't do that.
-[chuckles]
Thank you.
[Marcel moans]
Good night, Queen.
Talk to you tomorrow.
Yes, sir.
[tender music continues]
[camera shutter clicking]
[lively music playing]
[Marcel chuckles] So, yeah.
So, it seems to me, for the most part,
you two agree on
the most important things.
So, why now?
Why now what?
Why'd you decide to get married now?
Oh. Uh, well, actually...
Oh, baby. Can I?
-Uh, sure.
-Please.
Uh...
Well, pastor,
it all happened a long time ago.
I had known Queen for
about five years at this point.
And although I loved her as my friend,
I wanted Queen in my life.
For the rest of my life.
And in order to assure that,
I pushed all my romantic
feelings to the back of my mind.
Queen.
You didn't know, I assume.
I had no idea.
How does that make you feel?
Like I'm really glad
that our feelings are mutual.
Yeah?
Morning.
Queen.
Hey, girl.
What's up?
Uh... [groans]
[sighs]
Did Mr. Marshall's loan not go through
-for the house?
-No. No. Uh...
Good.
'Cause that commission check
is about to be nice.
What is it?
[grunts]
[dramatic music playing]
Does this mean what I think it means?
Queen, I looked everywhere. Okay?
I can't find a record of you
and Marcel ever being married.
That can't be right.
I mean, Marcel told me
we got married in Miami,
and that we couldn't get it annulled
because the offices were closed.
You see, that's the other thing.
I called that office and asked
them when they reopened,
and they said the only time
they're ever closed
is on the weekends.
[dramatic music continues]
Gladys, I'm gonna need you
to cancel the rest
of my appointments for today.
-I need to go see Marcel.
-I figured you would.
So, I already took the liberty
of doing that.
-Thank you so much.
-Mm-hm.
I know.
[scoffs]
[clicks tongue]
[groans]
Now, Marcel,
I need you to pull it
to-damn-get her and marry Queen.
-It's that easy.
-Yes.
But not like this, all right?
Look, if I go through with this,
it's just gonna be based on a lie.
Well, then you better
get to telling the truth.
Hey, girl.
Okay. All right.
Just... Queenie, just let me explain.
Please. Please explain.
Explain to me why there's no
record of us ever being married.
What are you talking about?
And now you want to act dumb?
Here you go. Take it, Marcel.
Uh, boy, let me see this.
Give us a moment, please.
Girl, that red.
Okay, Queenie. Look, look, look, look.
Just... Just...
-Let me explain.
-Please.
[Marcel] I never meant
to let it get as far as it did.
I got caught up, finally living this dream
that I've desperately
wanted to be my reality.
All right? For my entire life,
that's what I wanted.
[scoffs]
Well, for me,
this has been more of a nightmare.
-Goodbye, Marcel.
-Queen.
Queenie.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
-Queenie.
-Queenie. Queenie.
Wait.
Uh, Queenie, wait a minute now.
Girl, wait.
Fuck.
-Wait. Queen, Wait.
-Wait for what?
So you can try to defend your brother?
No. To apologize.
For not being honest with you until now.
Jasmine, Marcel has never lied to me.
-I'm sorry.
-Why would he do this?
He's not a hundred percent at fault.
I may have had something to do
with this.
Something like what?
Queen.
I, um...
I told him not to tell you
that you guys weren't married
and that he should do what he can
to make you fall in love with him.
Queen, I planned the party.
I threatened your assistant,
and I told our families.
I just want him to be happy.
-Wow.
-I'm sorry.
But... But why would Marcel
do all of that?
He could have just told me how he felt.
Because would you have
listened to him any other way?
Would you?
-Look, I... No.
-Don't take it out on him, Queen.
Please.
Queen, he loves you.
Queen. Queenie.
Queen.
Don't do that. Don't do that.
Come on, Queen.
Fuck.
Tell me how
How do we get To this point of no...
Hey. Yeah,
I'm good. I'm good. How are you?
[mouthing] It's Marcel.
[mouthing] No.
Yeah, no. I'm sorry, Marcel.
You just missed her.
She's going into a meeting,
but I'll have her call you back.
Okay.
Yeah I already know
So, tell me the truth
Wow.
[Jasmine] Look.
[mouthing] Good morning.
Who are those from?
Now you know who they're from.
Then put them in the trash.
I think it's time We talk about...
[Jasmine] Come on.
Ay!
-Hi.
-[courier] How are you?
I'm wonderful. How are you?
Delivery for Queen Mills.
-[in English] Sorry, we'll figure it out.
-Forget it.
Perfect. Thank you. Have a good day.
You too.
Hmm. Let's see what that is.
In the morning When I lie awake
Hey, there's a delivery for you
at the front desk. Okay.
Can we fix it Before we leave
I wanna know what it is.
I am thinking too much
-Oh.
-Hey, girl.
Hey, girl. Hey.
Okay. Can we at least see what it is?
Whatever it is, you can have it.
Oh.
Thank you, boo.
Let's see.
[chuckles]
Hm.
Thank you, Marcel.
Hm.
[St. Evan's "Keeping Score" playing]
You don't feel the same
Wondering when it changed
Did you come to play My baby?
I'm running your race
My heart's in its place
Wondering if you'll stay
I'm tired of figuring out
Whether you're in Or you're not
I see it as a warning
I feel it in the morning
I've got Those lingering doubts
Showing me with and without
I see it as a warning
[line ringing]
And I know it's
The same thing you did before
[line continues ringing]
And I'm holding a space
Too good to ignore
[line continues ringing]
[on voice mail] Hello,
you've reached Queen Mills.
I can't get to my phone right
now, but please leave a message,
and I will get back to you
at my earliest convenience.
Thank you, and have a blessed day.
[beeping]
Hey, Queenie. Um...
Call me back, please.
I, um...
I just wanna check up on you.
And to apologize again.
I'm sorry, Queenie.
And if this means that I gotta
spend the rest of my life
making it up to you, then I will.
Gladly.
Um...
So, yeah, call me back, please. Fathead.
[door closes]
Why did you lie?
[tender music playing]
Queen.
I'm so sorry for hurting you.
Okay?
You know I care about you way
too much to ever mistreat you?
And...
I do wish I would have
handled things differently.
Better.
But that doesn't mean I regret anything
I've done over the last few months.
'Cause I don't.
Because all of that came from the heart.
'Cause I love you.
I love you, Queenie.
Then ask me.
[sighs]
[Shu's "As Much as I Love You" playing]
Queen Marissa Mills,
my royal stankness.
Will you do me the honor
of making my dreams a reality
and marry me?
For real this time.
Uh...
Hey, if you want something...
-Yes. Yes.
-Yeah?
Give me that finger, girl. Who
laughs now? Come on. Come on.
[Queen] Oh.
[singing in Korean]
[giggles]
[laughs] Yeah.
Mmm.
-I love you, Queenie.
-I love you too.

-So...
-Mm-hm.
Have we found the one?
All right, so let's see.
That is amazing.
Oh. [Chuckles] Thank you.
Yes, I like to gift each of my clients
with a personal one-of-a-kind painting
with each closing.
Just a token of my appreciation.
Wait, you... You painted that?
Yes. It's one of my favorite pastimes.
It's beautiful.
Do you have any more like it?
Oh, yes, I have quite a few.
Interesting. Mm.
All right, now, if you look here...
Okay.
You'll see in the agreement...
Uh-huh. My children's names.
Okay. Yes.

Oh.
[chuckles] Hey, Bighead.
Queenie. Your royal highness.
What's up? What you up to?
Oh, um, just came back to my office
to get my things.
I got this one o'clock meeting.
What about you?
Ah, you know, same old, same old.
I, um, had a great presentation.
I got promoted. I finished up
that work on the TJK project.
Hold up. Run that back.
Uh, you got the promotion?
Yeah.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
How are we gonna celebrate?
Uh, I don't know.
We need to do something.
Oh, don't even worry about it.
Look, um, you need
to come over tonight.
I'm gonna cook you up something good.
We're gonna pop a bottle and celebrate.
-[giggles]
-Hey. All right. Cool.
Let's do it. Hey, can we do lamb chops?
Oh, you know I got you.
All right. I'll text you later.
Okay, cool. Yeah, I'm running late.
Okay, love you. Bye.
All right. Love you too.
[tranquil music playing over speakers]
[mouthing] Oh.
[clanging]
-Let me help you with that.
-Oh.
[sultry music playing]
[Queen] Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm.
Ladies, do y'all see this man?
Whew.
-[music stops]
-[record scratches]
[tranquil music resumes]
Thanks.
[exhales]
-Oh. Okay.
-Whoa.
-Sorry. [Chuckles]
-[chuckles]
Lamb? Nice.
A home-cooked meal
by a beautiful woman.
-Your husband's a lucky man.
-[chuckles] Very clever.
But no, I'm not married.
I'm actually single, Mr...
Franklin. Corey Franklin.
I'm Queen.
-You most certainly are.
-[chuckles]
-Can I have my hand back?
-Oh.
-[chuckles]
-My fault. [Laughs]
I'm sorry.
That's okay.
Um, listen, I hate to cut it short,
but I gotta get going.
Oh, you got a wife at home
waiting for you to bring home the milk?
[chuckles]
No, I'm just as single as you are.
-Hm. Okay.
-But I would love
to connect later when we have more time
to get to know one another.
-I'd like that.
-Oh.
-Queen.
-Hm.
Well, I look forward to seeing you.
You too, King. I mean, Corey.
I see what you did there.
[Queen chuckles]
[cell phone ringing]
Hello?
So, I was thinking
we could have a date tomorrow night.
Tomorrow could work.
I'll send you the details.
I look forward to it.
[mellow music playing]
-[chuckles]
-Exactly.
-Yeah.
-[chuckles]
-[Queen] All right.
-Are we ready?
Yes, we are.
-Mm-hm. Mm-hm.
-Yes, we are.
-There you go.
-Gracias.
-De nada.
-Smells amazing.
Yes, it does. I did that. [Laughs]
-Damn. Salud.
-Looks really good.
Yes. See?
You always know exactly what I need
before I even know I need it.
-[chuckles]
-I need you.
-That's enough?
-That's plenty. Thank you.
[grunts]
Mm.
Okay.
So, what did you get me
for my promotion gift?
[scoffs] Oh.
What makes you think
I got your big head anything?
Okay, well, where's it at?
-I know how you do.
-What?
-Hm.
-Uh...
What? [Groans]
[mumbles] Donde estas?
Okay. Okay. You can
stop tearing up my house.
-Here you go.
-[laughs]
Gracias.
Yo.
[Queen chuckles]
-What?
-You like it?
Get out of here. Do I like it?
-That's crazy.
-[giggles]
This is the one where I could... Oh, man.
Yo, this is perfect.
Yo, you got this
from the Franklin Library?
Nah. [Chuckles]
Yo, you went deep into geek land
for this one, yo.
Yeah. Anything for you.
-Thank you, yo.
-I got you.
Always. Let's see
what these lamb chops about.
I saw you put your foot over there in it.
Okay. Hallelujah. Thank you, Jesus.
Martin Luther King. Muhammad.
Amen.
[clears throat]
-I'm probably gonna mess it up.
-Mm-hm.
You really... You really...
-Okay.
-Hold on.
-Are you good?
-No. Oh. Yeah.
I can't even get... Yes.
You trying to be all Asian on the floor.
I don't know what I was thinking.
It's cute, though. I like that.
-[Marcel] Mm.
-[Queen] Mm.
[Marcel] This was worth
the promotion right here.
I'm trying to tell you.
[downtempo music playing]
-[sighs]
-Mm-hm.
[moans] You staying the night?
Mm-hm. If you want me to.
[chuckles softly] If it was
up to me, you'd never leave.
[upbeat music playing]
-Hello, Ms. Diaz.
-Hi.
-Wow, this is beautiful.
-Yes, absolutely.
-Three bedrooms, two baths.
-Plenty of storage?
And it's in a beautiful neighborhood.
Oh, and we got some friendly
neighbors. Just smile and wave.
-That's weird.
-Yeah.
So, it's three bedrooms and two baths.
-And one connected to the other?
-Oh, you know what?
Let's just show you.
-Just a little... stuck.
-Oh, my goodness.
-[laughs]
-[grunts]
It's okay. We got these
neighbors. They're really...
-Uh... [laughs]
-Don't worry. I've got the key.
-Oh, my goodness.
-[chuckles]
[upbeat music playing]
[exhales]
[chuckles]
[line ringing]
-[cell phone ringing]
-Oh.
Um, let me grab this real quick.
-Sorry.
-[woman] Okay.
[giggles]
This is Queen.
Hey, gorgeous. Catch you at a bad time?
[chuckles]
No, not at all.
Listen, you've been on my mind all day,
and I was wondering,
would you like to come over for dinner?
Are you inviting me over?
I am absolutely inviting you over.
Well, in that case, I'd love to.
[chuckles]
[chuckles]
Perfect. Well, I will send you
all the details,
and I'll see you tonight.
[chuckles]
Okay. Bye.
Oh.
-Ma. [Chuckles]
-Oh?
-What?
-I just wanna know who
who... who... Who was that?
That was Corey, the guy I'm seeing.
Oh, well, who is Corey?
-He's new, Ma. I mean...
-Uh...
Just... It's fine. [Laughs]
-So, wait a minute.
-What?
Has he met Marcel?
I don't see why that matters.
Marcel is not my daddy.
No, he's not your daddy,
but he is very protective of you.
[chuckles] Well, he doesn't have to worry
because Corey
has my stamp of approval.
-Ooh. Okay.
-Mm.
-[giggles]
-So, when do I get to meet him?
Not yet. Okay? This is a lot to handle.
[laughs] Can I get
to meet him fully first?
-I promise. You will.
-Okay. Mm-hmm.
All right. I ain't mad at you.
But I'm gonna head out.
I gotta get ready for...
Oh, so you cutting our time short?
Mom, we will catch up later.
-I promise. Okay?
-[sighs]
I just thought we were gonna
go have dinner,
-go shopping.
-You had all the plans.
We probably should have
discussed that. I love you.
All right. I love you too. Mwah. Mwah.
Now, we gonna get back
to that shopping, though.
-Oh, yeah. Yeah.
-Okay. [Laughs]
Uh-huh.
-[humming]
-[sighs]
Hmm. Got it from your mama.
[chuckles]
[Corey] Best I could ever do
was stick figures,
so I don't know. [Laughs]
[Queen] You're gonna
have to work on that.
Well, not everybody
can be a great artist like you.
That is true.
So, I've heard about this art you do,
but I've never seen it.
You're right.
And you are actually in luck.
-Am I?
-Yes, you are.
Mm. Because I brought some with me.
-Oh. So, I get a treat today.
-You do.
-An iPad. Okay.
-Always be prepared.
So...
Wow.
[chuckles]
[chuckles]
Wow. Queen, these are amazing.
I mean, of course they are. I did them.
-Oh, that girl good.
-Mm, sexy chocolate.
Well, I see that's where your heart is.
Wow, real estate.
-In all honesty, adulting...
-It will get you every time.
Yeah. I mean, my dad
has always done real estate,
so I knew there was good money.
And when I came home with
my tail tucked between my legs,
my dad just gave me
a job in the mail room.
And I worked my way up.
So, now I just use my art
to clear my mind and relax.
Yeah.
I get it.
I, um...
I had dreams of playing in the NFL.
-Oh.
-But, uh, one bad play,
ten years later, I am
coaching instead of playing.
Mm. Sorry.
Yeah. Don't get me wrong,
I love mentoring the kids,
but I miss it.
-Mm.
-Yeah.
The rush of game day,
the roar of the crowd,
the smell of turf. [Chuckles]
I miss it all.
Yeah. I get you.
I mean, my major in college
was fine arts.
I had dreams of my name
being mentioned
alongside Jean-Michel Basquiat
and Augusta Savage.
I mean, art is my passion,
but it don't pay the bills.
So, two years after college, I am broke.
-I mean, broke.
-[chuckling]
No prospects, no money, no job.
I mean, I was taking Marcel's car
to drive back and forth to interviews
and sleeping on his couch.
-[groans]
-Yeah.
That struggle life just wasn't for me.
So, you know, when my
last tube of paint was done,
I was done too.
Well, I'm glad that you still
have your passion,
because you are damn good.
And this world would be a colder place
without your gift in it.
Thank you.
No, Queen.
Thank you for sharing
your world with me.
You're welcome, Mr. Corey.
-Now get out the way. Okay?
-Girl, you always cheating.
I've been trying
to break this thing forever.
Bust this shirt open
and distract you some more?
I don't think that will work,
but you can try it if you want.
-Go ahead, take your shot.
-I'm just gonna keep...
See, now I'm just hitting balls...
I'm sorry. I need to warm up.
You go ahead.
-Now, have a seat.
-Have a seat?
-Now, we'll have Daddy do it. Look.
-Let's see.
-Ain't even gonna look.
-And you better be good.
Pow. Trick shot.
-You got a home table to practice on.
-Home-court advantage?
-Yeah, that's it. That's it.
-You got excuses, excuses, excuses.
But you didn't get a ball in the hole,
though, did you? So, uh, let's see.
I put the ball in the hole
more times than you think.
Now, check that out.
Balls moving everywhere.
[line ringing] -[Marcel]
There you go. Come on.
Give me that.
[Queen] Hey, Bighead.
Yo, what's up, Queenie?
What you doing, Fathead? Get online.
Getting ready to meet up with Corey.
Okay. Who is Corey?
You got new clients and stuff?
Corey is my date.
A date? Nigga, with who?
He's really sweet, and
I'm meeting him again tonight.
"Again"? As in you've been
out with him before.
And you're just not telling me?
That's crazy. See?
See how you don't be telling
me stuff? That's what I'm saying.
Look, but anyway, I'm
running late, so let me just...
I'll hit you up when I get back. Okay?
-All right? Love you.
-Okay.
-Bye.
-Have fun.
Damn.
[gunfire on video game]
Hm.
[Queen] Yes, I do.
[moans]
All right, now, we got guests coming.
Send them to the other room.
Ooh. Okay.
But honestly, I'm a little bit nervous.
Oh, I got you. Don't be nervous.
Okay. Well, if you wanna run,
now is the time.
-Hm?
-Run?
Mm-hm.
Girl, I'm an OG in this thing.
I don't run.
-I glide.
-Oh.
-Mmm.
-[moans] Mm.
Okay. All right. We gonna see.
Yes, we are.
[mellow music playing]
[doorbell rings]
[lively music playing]
Ooh.
-Is he here?
-Uh, hello, to you, too, ma'am.
Girl, I saw you earlier today, okay?
I'm here to see God's specimen only.
So, a lot more showing
and a little less talking.
-Okay. He's in the kitchen.
-All right?
-All right.
-Uh, behave.
-Eh. Corey.
-Oh.
-Hey. [Laughs]
-Hey, baby boo!
Hey! You know I brought
the amigos to your casa.
-Oh. Come on in.
-Green.
-Yes, green.
-Thank you.
Oh, is he... Is he...
Oh, in the kitchen.
-Hey, boo!
-Hey, boo.
-So good to see you. Come on in.
-You too.
-You ready to get spanked?
-Oh, you was lucky last time, okay?
Don't let it go to your head.
Yes, sir.
-Look at you.
-Straight from work.
-Hey, you look good.
-How you doing?
-Hi, gorgeous.
-Look at you.
-It's you for me.
-Uh-uh.
Now, you know you're disrespectful.
Honey, it's the blonde for me.
-Where the ding-a-ling at?
-Oh.
Ain't no unassigned
ding-a-ling in here yet,
so you better be careful.
What's going on, girl? Watch your door.
Hey, where your fine friend at?
-Why did you come with a cup?
-The one with the baby daddy?
-Just go find her.
-I see you. All right, now.
-Hey!
-You good?
-Okay. Hell, yeah.
-Oh, yes.
-You look more like confidence now.
-Thank you.
-You good?
-Um, actually, I wanted to talk to you.
Um, I'm gonna need you to be on
your best behavior today, okay?
-Okay.
-No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Um, like, I really like him. So...
[chuckles]
As long as he good to you, I'm good.
-Cool?
-Cool.
Good talk.
Hey, what's up?
-What's happening?
-[all] Hey!
Y'all getting his ass whooped or what?

My sister just bought
a lovely property from you.
And she told me about the lovely
painting you gifted her.
Oh, yes. All my clients get a personal,
one-of-a-kind painting with each closing.
Um, are you interested
in purchasing a home?
No, not a home.
I'm interested in your work.
My work?
You mean my paintings?
Yes.
I own an art gallery, and I...
I'd like to offer you an artist exhibit.
Y... Yes, yes. Yes, I do.

Your Royal Highness.
How can I help you?
Marcel, you will not believe
what just happened.
Ah, yeah?
Just tell me. What's up?
Okay, so one of my clients
has some brother
who owns an art exhibit.
He saw one of my paintings,
and now he wants me
to do my own exhibit.
What?
Yo, Queenie. That's amazing.
Thank you.
I guess all that trouble
you used to get into
for painting all over
your mama's walls paid off.
[Marcel and Queen chuckle]
-Don't do that.
-Do what?
That thing you do where you talk
yourself out of an opportunity
before you even get to see where it goes.
What if nobody likes it?
What if nobody likes my work?
And what if they all like it,
and it sells out?
Ain't that what you always wanted?
Yeah, but... [grunts]
Queenie.
Yeah, I'm still here.
Look, do not worry, all right?
I'll be right there with you,
cheering you on the whole time.
Just like always.
This is yours, Queenie.
Thank you.
I love you.
[chuckles] I love you too.
Now call that man back
and walk into your destiny.
This is for you.
Okay?

getting a fresh set?
[laughs] Hey, you stupid, man.
But don't be talking about my
veneers like that. You like them?
Oh, my God. How was the exhibit?
I saw some of the pictures y'all posted.
They look good. Sis did her thing.
Yo, she killed it.
She definitely killed it.
So, did y'all do it? Huh?
Finally, did y'all finally do it?
Um, well...
She thinks we're married.
-Excuse me?
-Yeah, yeah.
We, uh, we got a
little too tipsy last night.
We ended up going to the beach.
We crashed a beach wedding.
We blacked out.
And then she woke up
with a ring on her finger.
So, she thinks we're married.
A ring? What? Huh?
Well, that's... You're not
gonna tell the truth, are you?
Of course. I got to.
It's Queenie. We don't lie to each other.
But you gonna lie to me?
What?
I've never lied to Queenie, yo.
Come on, boobie.
If anyone knows the truth, it's me.
I know how much you love her.
Listen right here.
'Cause y'all both keep lying
to each other anyway, so...
We tell each other
we love each other all the time.
She my best friend.
[stammers] You almost
made me call you out your name.
You know that's not the kind
of love I'm talking about.
You guys been had
this connection that's timeless.
That love y'all have is undeniable.
It's been that way
since you was, like, 14.
Damn, you're right.
Yeah, I know I'm right.
Big sis is always right. Yeah.
I can't see myself with no one else.
[scoffs] And neither can I.
'Cause all them little hussies
used to parade around,
they have nothing on Queen, okay?
So, I'm just saying,
if she think y'all married,
just leave it like that.
-Damn.
-Like...
Look, just make her fall in love with you.
And then, maybe by the time
y'all get back,
we could be planning a wedding
and a baby shower.
Ooh! [Laughing] Juice.
I'm excited. Okay. This is happening.
Okay.
Bye, boy.
[Queen groans]
[stammers] Marcel, wake up.
Hm. Hm?
[groans]
What's up? You okay?
Uh, no, I'm not okay.
Um, and we can't tell anyone about this.
And we need to get this annulled
as soon as possible.
We can't.
We
[grunts] What do you mean, we can't?
I talked to the guy
whose wedding we crashed.
He said the courts is closed
for the rest of the week.
The holiday.
So, we're gonna have to come
back some other time and do it.
[Queen groans]
[sighs]
Damn it.
[Queen sighs]
Okay.
All right, Queenie.
Listen.
-[sighs]
-Listen.
Here's what we're gonna do, Queenie.
We'll keep our mouth closed.
We won't tell anyone

she's told me about you,
I know you treat her right.
So, you haven't told him about us?
Why couldn't you just stay
in there a little longer?
Why would you do that
while he's still here?
So, you cannot tell him
about us. Once again.
Marcel, what "us"?
Hm?
The only reason why this
wedding hasn't been called off
is because I don't wanna
disappoint our parents.
That's it.
Is that the only reason,
or is there something else?
[lively music playing]
-Oh, we have got to get started.
-Yes, I know.
It's gonna be here before we know it.
Yes. Is the wedding planner on her way?
-Yes, she is on her way.
-Oh, good, good, good.
-Okay, so we have flowers.
-Yes.
What kind of flowers?
I'm thinking calla lilies.
-Oh.
-I had them in my wedding.
-Yes, and they were beautiful.
-Yes, they were.
Remember how the orchids draped?
-Yes. Those are pretty too.
-Yes.
-Or the roses.
-Both are. Or we could do both.
-Yeah, that's true.
-Right? Okay, we have the wine.
[Corey] You know, from
what she's told me about you,
I know you treat her right.
-Queenie.
-Uh, yes, Ma.
Um, what colors, baby?
Hm. You two should pick.
Okay, well, anyway,
Marcel's favorite color is gray.
-Really?
-Yes.
-I was thinking about a green.
-I love that.
-[Piper] Mm.
-[Michelle] All right.
-So, we have the gray, possibly.
-That cake is good. Oh!
-Which one? The coconut?
-With the raspberry.
Raspberry. Let's go with the raspberry.
[upbeat music playing]
-[Leon] Gentlemen.
-[Marcel] Hey.
-Hey. What's going on?
-What's going on?
-How you doing?
-I'm doing good, man. Good.
-Marcel. How you doing, bro?
-What's up, champ?
-How you doing, boy?
-Good. Doing good, man.
-How you living?
-Good, man.
These women are deep in my pocket.
-Man, tell me about it.
-[Marcel] Hm.
[laughs] Hell, I thought we was
only paying for the honeymoon.
That damn Michelle done gave me
every receipt under the moon.
[Leon and Scott laugh]
Bro, we might as well renew
our vows at the same time.
[Scott] Might as well. [Laughs]
Hmm. What's up?
What's going on, man?
Queenie giving you a hard time already?
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.
She's good. We good.
I mean, we're not arguing or
nothing like that. It's just, um...
To be honest, man, I don't
really know what's going on.
You know?
Are we making
the right decision or what?
So, uh, you think you might need
some premarital counseling, son?
[Leon] Yeah.
Damn, Pop,
I never even thought about that.
Hey, something to think about.
[Marcel] Mm.
Hey, you know what? Since
all three of us are drinking,
hell, just bring the
whole bottle over here.
-We got action.
-There we go.
Go.
-There you go.
-Appreciate it, Pop.
You know, Scott.
I think that's a great idea.
Marriage counseling, man.
How about I just go on
and call Reverend Davis
and get you to a session set up?
Please, Pop.
I got you.
-Yeah.
-I got you, son.
I was supposed to be going over
my client's checklist
to deliver in the next hour.
But here I was,
looking at a wedding registry
created by my new mother-in-law.
Now, don't get me wrong.
Michelle has impeccable taste.
And the gifts were right up my alley.
[cell phone buzzing]
But this wasn't right.
I mean, here I was ducking
and dodging wedding planning
all because I was scared of the
outcome of me telling the truth.
Oh, Queen, my dear.
Uh, your mama just called, and I told her
that you had already left
for the bridal shop.
[chuckles] Why would you tell her that?
I'm pretty sure I asked
you to cancel that.
Uh-uh. No, ma'am.
See, when I called to cancel,
they told me that they have
strict orders from Piper
not to cancel anything.
-Then I guess I better be going.
-I guess you better.
Oh, don't forget, you got an 8 o'clock
dinner reservation with Marcel.
Now, you know, I usually try to
mind the business that pays me.
Well, you pay me, don't you?
-Uh, yes, I do.
-Okay, then.
-[chuckles]
-Now, look.
Have you ever thought
that just, like, maybe
Marcel really is the man of your dreams?
Okay, Queen, hear me out.
Now, honey, I know you don't
wanna ruin a friendship.
I get that.
But, honey, what if this
friendship is the foundation
for a long and happy marriage
with a man that happens to adore you?
You just think about it.
And come on here,
'cause you're not gonna
tell your mama I made you late.
[jazzy music playing]
I'm excited. Okay.
You've done this before?
I'm kidding, I'm kidding,
I'm kidding. Okay.
So, I've got tons of options for you.
I've got designer dresses.
I've got sequins.
Ladies, feel free to look
at whatever you want to look at.
Uh, we've got strapless. We've got...
If you need a sleeve,
I have a sleeve for you.
-However you're feeling.
-Oh.
Okay. I'm liking that reaction.
That is very exciting to me.
-Going to find the right dress out here.
-Yeah, well, you know,
we've got all kinds here,
and I think there's just different trends,
different things going on. Okay.
-You're Mom, right?
-[Piper] Yes.
Look at what Mom
has picked out for you.
-Sparkles. I...
-Okay.
-Mother of the groom?
-[Michelle] Yes.
Okay, so she's got something
more classic.
-[Michelle] Yes.
-Very princess-like, for a queen.
All right. If you ladies need
any champagne or anything,
give me a holler.
I'm gonna go put these down.
-[Piper] All right.
-I'll take a refill.
I love this. Oh, that's gorgeous.
[Michelle] It's gorgeous.
-Oh, she needs a tiara. Mm.
-Oh, yeah.
Uh, auntie. I was thinking
more of a crown for the queen.
I mean, you know what I'm saying?
-Maybe.
-You okay?
Um, yeah, yeah. Mm-hm.
Queen.
-Hm?
-Are you sure?
Yeah. Yeah, I'm good.
-Okay.
-[chuckles nervously]
[chuckles nervously]
-Now, this is the one.
-Mm-hm.
It's fine. I mean, your dad's
paying for all of this anyway.
-Absolutely gorgeous. So pretty.
-Thanks.
Okay, look. What do you think?
-Let's see here. Okay.
-Yeah.
Looks perfect.
Thanks.
-Oh.
-Mm-hm.
You get two of them, in fact.
I do love this one.
This would be perfect for the reception.
Uh, why not a third one?
-You want one too?
-A third one?
[lively music playing]
[woman] Mm-mm.
None of these dresses are you.
-How can you tell?
-[chuckles]
I've been doing this for years.
I always know when a bride
isn't being true to herself.
Either you don't love him,
or the dresses aren't giving you
what you truly want.
No.
I love him more
than I've ever loved anyone.
[scoffs] Did I really
just say that out loud?
Oh, you did. [Chuckles]
But your eyes told me
that you love him, though.
And now we just need to find a dress
that you truly love.
I've got the perfect thing. Hang on.
[pensive music playing]
I think this is it.
-Wow.
-Mm-hm.
Why don't I leave you two
alone for a minute?
You can get one with the dress.
[chuckles]
-And, um, you know what?
-Yes.
-Let me hang it up for you.
-Yes, thank you.
[inaudible dialogue]
-[cell phone buzzing]
-Oh.
-[voice breaking] Hello?
-[Marcel] What?
What? What's wrong?
[voice breaking] Nothing, nothing.
It's just that we're at the bridal shop,
and Queen just tried on
the most beautiful dress.
-[mouthing] Oh, my God.
-Damn.
[sniffles]
Uh-oh.
You're having second thoughts?
-Yeah, I am. Look.
-Oh.
Things are getting out of hand
now, okay?
Our fathers are sitting here
talking about
going to marriage counseling.
Well, I'm gonna tell you
what you're gonna do.
You're gonna shut the hell up,
and you're gonna
get out of your feelings.
You finally have the opportunity
to marry the woman of your dreams.
Now, she in there done tried on
this beautiful dress.
Ooh, and this one is cute too.
-Yeah, but it's not mutual.
-[groans]
I feel like I'm tricking
her into something
-that she does not want.
-No, it...
It might have started off as a trick.
But it ain't no trick no more.
Look, I say just go to
the counseling session
and tell her how you really feel.
-Okay.
-Okay?
Okay. Yeah. Yeah, you're right.
-Don't muck this up.
-Yeah.
-Okay.
-All right.
[mouthing] Bye.
Oh, child. What is you,
Gladys the Friendly Ghost?
When did you come around that corner?
What... What's wrong?
Why are you looking at me like that?
I need you to repeat what was just said.
What was said?
Who is Marcel tricking, Jasmine?
What? I don't know what
you're talking about. And, um...
Whatever you thought
you heard was said
better not get back to Queen.
And if it does?
Oh, baby, this ain't what you want.
No, but this is clearly what you want.
[woman] Ladies, we're ready for you.
[both] We'll be right there. [Chuckling]
Like I said, this ain't what you want.
Always the ones from the suburbs
can't bust a grape.
Hm. That's okay.
I got something for that. Tsk.
[tender music playing]
[chuckles]
-Waiting for someone, handsome?
-Mm-hm.
-Well.
-Hm.
-What?
-[chuckles]
No. Just looking extra beautiful today.
It's like you're glowing
out here or something.
[chuckles] Well, today
did start off kind of shaky,
but it turned itself around.
-Really?
-Mm-hm.
Does that have anything to do
with you finding
the perfect wedding dress?
What? Did you see my dress?
Are you serious?
Jasmine. Ooh, I'm gonna get her.
-She knows that's bad luck.
-Okay, all right, all right.
Calm down, Queenie, okay?
Nobody showed me your wedding dress.
They just told me you finally found it.
Your sister can't hold water in a bucket.
Mm.
Did you really find the right one?
Yeah, I really did.
Yeah?
Okay.
Well, let's go have some dinner.
Let's celebrate you finding
the perfect wedding dress.
-Let's. Uh, but first...
-What?
Can I have my present?
Uh, what are you talking about?
-My present.
-What present?
-My present.
-Yeah.
-Give it to me.
-Hm.
-I'm gonna give it to you.
-You know what?
I got a present for your
fat head, there. Come on.
[tender music playing]
All right, I'll, uh...
-I'll text you in the morning.
-Oh, okay.
-And this is for you.
-Oh. About time.
-Don't do that.
-[chuckles]
Thank you.
[Marcel moans]
Good night, Queen.
Talk to you tomorrow.
Yes, sir.
[tender music continues]
[camera shutter clicking]
[lively music playing]
[Marcel chuckles] So, yeah.
So, it seems to me, for the most part,
you two agree on
the most important things.
So, why now?
Why now what?
Why'd you decide to get married now?
Oh. Uh, well, actually...
Oh, baby. Can I?
-Uh, sure.
-Please.
Uh...
Well, pastor,
it all happened a long time ago.
I had known Queen for
about five years at this point.
And although I loved her as my friend,
I wanted Queen in my life.
For the rest of my life.
And in order to assure that,
I pushed all my romantic
feelings to the back of my mind.
Queen.
You didn't know, I assume.
I had no idea.
How does that make you feel?
Like I'm really glad
that our feelings are mutual.
Yeah?
Morning.
Queen.
Hey, girl.
What's up?
Uh... [groans]
[sighs]
Did Mr. Marshall's loan not go through
-for the house?
-No. No. Uh...
Good.
'Cause that commission check
is about to be nice.
What is it?
[grunts]
[dramatic music playing]
Does this mean what I think it means?
Queen, I looked everywhere. Okay?
I can't find a record of you
and Marcel ever being married.
That can't be right.
I mean, Marcel told me
we got married in Miami,
and that we couldn't get it annulled
because the offices were closed.
You see, that's the other thing.
I called that office and asked
them when they reopened,
and they said the only time
they're ever closed
is on the weekends.
[dramatic music continues]
Gladys, I'm gonna need you
to cancel the rest
of my appointments for today.
-I need to go see Marcel.
-I figured you would.
So, I already took the liberty
of doing that.
-Thank you so much.
-Mm-hm.
I know.
[scoffs]
[clicks tongue]
[groans]
Now, Marcel,
I need you to pull it
to-damn-get her and marry Queen.
-It's that easy.
-Yes.
But not like this, all right?
Look, if I go through with this,
it's just gonna be based on a lie.
Well, then you better
get to telling the truth.
Hey, girl.
Okay. All right.
Just... Queenie, just let me explain.
Please. Please explain.
Explain to me why there's no
record of us ever being married.
What are you talking about?
And now you want to act dumb?
Here you go. Take it, Marcel.
Uh, boy, let me see this.
Give us a moment, please.
Girl, that red.
Okay, Queenie. Look, look, look, look.
Just... Just...
-Let me explain.
-Please.
[Marcel] I never meant
to let it get as far as it did.
I got caught up, finally living this dream
that I've desperately
wanted to be my reality.
All right? For my entire life,
that's what I wanted.
[scoffs]
Well, for me,
this has been more of a nightmare.
-Goodbye, Marcel.
-Queen.
Queenie.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
-Queenie.
-Queenie. Queenie.
Wait.
Uh, Queenie, wait a minute now.
Girl, wait.
Fuck.
-Wait. Queen, Wait.
-Wait for what?
So you can try to defend your brother?
No. To apologize.
For not being honest with you until now.
Jasmine, Marcel has never lied to me.
-I'm sorry.
-Why would he do this?
He's not a hundred percent at fault.
I may have had something to do
with this.
Something like what?
Queen.
I, um...
I told him not to tell you
that you guys weren't married
and that he should do what he can
to make you fall in love with him.
Queen, I planned the party.
I threatened your assistant,
and I told our families.
I just want him to be happy.
-Wow.
-I'm sorry.
But... But why would Marcel
do all of that?
He could have just told me how he felt.
Because would you have
listened to him any other way?
Would you?
-Look, I... No.
-Don't take it out on him, Queen.
Please.
Queen, he loves you.
Queen. Queenie.
Queen.
Don't do that. Don't do that.
Come on, Queen.
Fuck.
Tell me how
How do we get To this point of no...
Hey. Yeah,
I'm good. I'm good. How are you?
[mouthing] It's Marcel.
[mouthing] No.
Yeah, no. I'm sorry, Marcel.
You just missed her.
She's going into a meeting,
but I'll have her call you back.
Okay.
Yeah I already know
So, tell me the truth
Wow.
[Jasmine] Look.
[mouthing] Good morning.
Who are those from?
Now you know who they're from.
Then put them in the trash.
I think it's time We talk about...
[Jasmine] Come on.
Ay!
-Hi.
-[courier] How are you?
I'm wonderful. How are you?
Delivery for Queen Mills.
-[in English] Sorry, we'll figure it out.
-Forget it.
Perfect. Thank you. Have a good day.
You too.
Hmm. Let's see what that is.
In the morning When I lie awake
Hey, there's a delivery for you
at the front desk. Okay.
Can we fix it Before we leave
I wanna know what it is.
I am thinking too much
-Oh.
-Hey, girl.
Hey, girl. Hey.
Okay. Can we at least see what it is?
Whatever it is, you can have it.
Oh.
Thank you, boo.
Let's see.
[chuckles]
Hm.
Thank you, Marcel.
Hm.
[St. Evan's "Keeping Score" playing]
You don't feel the same
Wondering when it changed
Did you come to play My baby?
I'm running your race
My heart's in its place
Wondering if you'll stay
I'm tired of figuring out
Whether you're in Or you're not
I see it as a warning
I feel it in the morning
I've got Those lingering doubts
Showing me with and without
I see it as a warning
[line ringing]
And I know it's
The same thing you did before
[line continues ringing]
And I'm holding a space
Too good to ignore
[line continues ringing]
[on voice mail] Hello,
you've reached Queen Mills.
I can't get to my phone right
now, but please leave a message,
and I will get back to you
at my earliest convenience.
Thank you, and have a blessed day.
[beeping]
Hey, Queenie. Um...
Call me back, please.
I, um...
I just wanna check up on you.
And to apologize again.
I'm sorry, Queenie.
And if this means that I gotta
spend the rest of my life
making it up to you, then I will.
Gladly.
Um...
So, yeah, call me back, please. Fathead.
[door closes]
Why did you lie?
[tender music playing]
Queen.
I'm so sorry for hurting you.
Okay?
You know I care about you way
too much to ever mistreat you?
And...
I do wish I would have
handled things differently.
Better.
But that doesn't mean I regret anything
I've done over the last few months.
'Cause I don't.
Because all of that came from the heart.
'Cause I love you.
I love you, Queenie.
Then ask me.
[sighs]
[Shu's "As Much as I Love You" playing]
Queen Marissa Mills,
my royal stankness.
Will you do me the honor
of making my dreams a reality
and marry me?
For real this time.
Uh...
Hey, if you want something...
-Yes. Yes.
-Yeah?
Give me that finger, girl. Who
laughs now? Come on. Come on.
[Queen] Oh.
[singing in Korean]
[giggles]
[laughs] Yeah.
Mmm.
-I love you, Queenie.
-I love you too.
See?
[lively music playing]
[Queen giggles]
