>> [ Echoing ] Izzy?
Izzy? Give me back my daughter.
I love you so much, Izzy.
** **
>> And then I need you to take me to cousin Tamika's, because
she's still got my shoes I let her borrow last week.
And then, after that, I -- Chauncey, are you listening to
me? >> Yeah. Yeah, yeah, Ma.
>> Chauncey, I know your little ass better not be ignoring me
right now! >> Ma, look, I'm listening.
I'm just, um -- I'm just stuck in traffic.
>> Yeah, well, you better be on your way.
You ain't good for much, but you're cheaper than them
rideshares, and you know they don't be cleaning their cars.
>> No. No, they don't, Ma. >> [ Crying ]
>> So, I need you to pick me up, Chauncey.
[ Cellphone vibrates ] >> Look, Ma, I'm coming, okay?
But I'm gonna call you back, alright?
I got to take this call. >> Don't you hang up --
>> Are you happy? [ Cries ]
They took my baby. They took Izzy.
[ Sniffles ] They took my daughter.
>> No, you mean ourbaby. >> County just came and took
her. >> Well, that's what you get for
being an irresponsible parent. You know, they don't like when
you be postin' naked pictures of your ass online like a little
thot. >> Oh, my God.
You'd rather they put Izzy in the system than me keep custody?
You're sick! >> [ Scoffs ]
>> What kind of man are you? >> Whatever, yo.
[ Laughs ]
>> * If I changed all my plans and stayed with... *
>> This was from back in the day. School play there. Look at him.
>> [ Laughs ] >> Ain't he cute there? >> Mm-hmm.
>> [ Laughs ] Nice. Hey, D. Nice jacket, man.
Let's take a picture. Can you take one for us? But angle it like that, okay?
Yeah. >> * Cut straight to the chase * * I'm really tryin' to get you
back to my place * >> Do the pose, do the pose. One more.
[ Laughs ] We got to make sure it looks good for the 'Gram, huh?
Did you, um, put your number in there? >> The registration fee is $899.
No, hundred. Plus another $295 for materials. But if you just sign up 12 more
people, not only will you get your money back, you'll make $10,000 on top of that.
[ Gunfire, explosions ] I am living proof that this works, Mr. Romano.
You know, just the other night, I made $3,000 while I was sleeping.
>> Mm...Dad? Are you gonna make dinner? >> I am so sorry, Mr. Romano.
Can you give me just one second, please? Thank you.
Tyler, how many times do I have to tell you to not interrupt me during business hours?
>> Mom hasn't gotten home from work yet, and I'm pretty hungry. >> Okay, well, then just go find
an apple or something, alright? I've got a customer. Mr. Romano.
So sorry about that. My...assistant just informed me that a client of ours just made
$2,000 in an hour. So, are you ready to become independently wealthy?
[ Crowd cheering] >> What?!
Yeah! [ Laughs ] [ Cheering continues] [ Cellphone vibrates ]
>> Oh! [ Laughs ] Nice. [ Cheering continues]
Ah! [ Laughs ] You're missing it. **
[ Cheering continues] Oh! Look.
Baby, baby, oh, my goodness. [ Cellphone chimes ]
[ Cellphone swishes ] Whoo! Whoo!
[ Laughs ] [ Whistle blows] Oh! Really?
[ Clacking ] [ Cellphone swishes ]
[ Cellphone chimes ] [ Cellphone swishes ]
Everything okay? >> Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just the office, that's all. What's the score? **
** >> Dad?
I can't find my P-motor. I need it for Samantha. >> Who's Samantha?
>> The robot I'm building for the robotics expo. She won't work without it.
>> Uh, what's it look like? >> Um...it was round with three connectors at the end, like a
metal squid. >> Oh, that. Yeah, I took that back to the
store. I needed some quick cash for some business cards.
Look, don't worry about it, alright? Soon, we're gonna be so rich,
just hire somebody to build you a robot -- an even cooler one. >> I want to build it myself.
[ Door opens, closes ] >> I'm home. >> Hey, baby.
>> Hey. Ty, what's wrong, honey? >> Dad took my P-motor back for
business cards. ** >> Don't worry.
I'll buy you a new motor tomorrow, okay? **
[ Brakes squeal ]
>> Come on, David. We're gonna be late for the
game. >> Oh, no. He ain't going. Go on.
Go on, tell your father what you did. He called his teacher a bitch.
>> Why? What'd she do? >> What -- what did she do? Really?
>> Oh, come on. We always told the kid to be honest and speak his mind, and
if she was acting like a... >> Don't. >> [ Sighs ]
Right. Not cool, D. Did you at least apologize? >> Okay, well, that's a start.
>> Did you not just hear what I said? He called his teacher a bitch.
And they want to expel him. >> For that? Are you kidding me? >> David, go inside.
>> [ Sighs ] >> What is wrong with you? You call that discipline?
>> Come on, Vanessa. He's going through puberty, okay?
Was he wrong in calling his teacher that? Yes, but it's not like he broke
the law or anything. >> You still don't get it, José.
Your son is turning into a monster that you created. And all I know is, you better
handle this before it gets worse. >> What am I supposed to do?
>> Show him how to treat women with respect, teach him to listen to authority, and,
please, make him understand that there are consequences for his actions.
Try being his father instead of his homey. [ Sighs ]
** ** **
>> Damn, Stacy! About to give me a heart attack. What are you doing here?
>> I told you, I'm not gonna take "no" for an answer. You have to talk to Nicole.
Owen, I'm just asking you to talk to your daughter. You can't give her one day?
>> Okay, one day. But we got to be quiet about this.
If Marjory find out about this... >> Fine.
Are you free tomorrow at 7:00?
>> [ Sighs ]
>> Good. **
>> Mr. Burks, did you file a false report accusing Ms. Palmer
of running a prostitution ring from her home? >> No.
>> Let me remind you, you are under oath. According to our phone records,
you filed...four false reports, all anonymously, of course. So not only are you wasting this
court's time with your antics, you're wasting the taxpayers's money, as well.
>> Excuse me. Your Honor, can I say something? Our daughter, Izzy, used to be
this really happy kid, you know. But ever since Chauncey started this war with me, calling CPS,
making the cops come to our home, Izzy has been having nightmares because she thinks
they're gonna put me in jail. So, this has to stop. >> Oh, this stops today.
So, here's what we're going to do. I'm ordering you to go to rehab.
>> I'm not a drug addict, Your Honor. >> Well, as a documented liar,
I'll also order a drug test just to make sure. >> Alright.
>> No, this rehab is more like a support group...for lousy fathers.
Perhaps that will help you get your act together. >> And what if I don't accept
this rehabilitation? >> Then you'll be required to pay all of the administrative
fees for filing a false report with CPS, then, after that, all the court-processing fees, then,
after that, the fines for filing a false report in the first place, and then, finally, you
will be sent to county jail for a minimum of 30 days. Because what you have done is
called a crime, Mr. Burks. >> Yeah, so, where did you say this rehab was again,
Your Honor? >> Why didn't you want to be my dad?
I mean, I know you can be a good dad. I've seen the pics on Facebook
of you and your sons at Disney World, at ballgames, at school plays.
>> [ Sighs ] Look, it's complicated, Nicole. >> You always look so proud of
their accomplishments, and they look at you the way I have always wanted to look at my dad.
You say it's complicated, but what was so complicated that you couldn't make it to a single
birthday, school graduation, or give my first boyfriend a hard time?
Huh? What? You love baseball.
I know that from Facebook, too. I actually started playing because I knew you loved it, and
I wanted to do something you loved. I got really good, too.
I got a scholarship and everything -- for softball, of course.
Do you know what? I hated it, every second of it, but I wanted to connect with
you. Just because... you were my father.
>> I am really, really sorry. >> Hmm.
Is that the best you got? >> I don't know what tosay. >> [ Laughs ]
Well, then this was a big waste of time for the both of us. I had high expectations about
meeting you today. But if I never see you again, I'm good, 'cause at least now I
know there isn't much to see.
>> [ Sighs ]
>> Hey, Stacy. No, it didn't go well.
I tried, but... I-I-I couldn't think of the right words to say, and -- I
don't know. I -- Now I think I made things worse.
[ Cellphone swishes ] ** What's this rehab stuff?
** [ Pounding on door ]
>> I raise you 150. >> José, open the door. [ Door opens ]
Is David hiding in here? >> No. Why? What happened? >> He ditched detention.
That's what happened. >> What -- He said it was canceled because the teacher
didn't show up. So, he lied. >> José, I do not know what it
is going to take for you to open your eyes, but if you do not get through to your son, I am scared
that something horrible is gonna happen to him. >> I know, I know.
That's why I gave him the talk about what to do if the police question him.
** >> The way that David is acting, they will not question him.
They will just shoot. So, do something before it's too late.
>> [ Sighs, clears throat ] [ Door slams ] >> Yo, uh, José, not to be in
your business or anything, even though, uh, your business was just kind of on blast, uh...
[ Laughter ] Um, but I know about a program that kind of might help with
this. >> What? Like a 12-step thing? >> Uh, yeah, a little bit.
Something like that. So, there's chapters, you know, all across the country.
Um, and, uh, it's actually called Bad Dad Rehab. >> [ Laughs ]
Bad Dad Rehab? I'm not that bad. Uh, am I?
>> Look, man... >> Damn. >> ...it happens to the best of
us, alright? Seriously. So, uh, you know, can't hurt,
right?
>> [ Breathes deeply ] Come on in.
** [ Sighs ]
Tyler, honey, go upstairs and get ready for dinner, please. [ Sighs ]
>> Denise, what are you doing? >> Did you know your son sat in
the rain for two hours waiting for you to pick him up from school?
>> What? Oh. >> Oh.
>> Look, I was on a sales call, and I forgot. >> You forgot?
You know, Marshall, ever since you got let go six months ago, I have tried -- God knows I have
tried really hard to be understanding. I have taken our vows -- "for
better or for worse" -- seriously. Look, I know how much you loved
that job and how much it hurt you to lose it, but after working 10 hours, then coming
home to cook and clean, I just can't do it anymore. I need some help.
>> What do you think I'm doing all day? >> To be honest, Marshall, I
really don't know. But Tyler seems to think that you care more about your little
businesses than you do about him. >> That's not true.
>> Oh, it's not? You took a part of his robot back to the store to get
business cards. Do you know how much that hurt him?
>> Okay, I'm sorry, alright? I didn't know it was that big a deal.
>> See? That's exactly the problem, Marshall. You need professional help,
ASAP. >> No. Look, I don't have time for this, Denise, okay?
I'm trying to make us millionaires in a year. >> I never asked you to do that,
especially if it's hurting Tyler. He comes first.
I want you to go to this rehab. I want you to do it for your son.
And during the day, you will look for a new job. That's non-negotiable.
>> What are you doing now? >> Taking away your little toys. Oh, and it's a good thing I run
an I.T. department, 'cause I installed malware in your computer.
So, starting midnight, business is officially over until you finish rehab.
>> Yo, Denise, you can't be serious!
** **
**
>> Alright, gentlemen, how you doing? Thanks for being here.
Welcome to Bad Dad Rehab, Jersey City chapter. My name is Mr. Arnold.
And, uh, I will be guiding you through the next six weeks of this program.
Now, its, uh, success, however, is totally dependent entirely upon you.
Alright. So, let's go through some house rules, shall we?
Number one, no judgment. No man's sins is any worse than the next man's, alright?
We're all guilty of failing our children, including me. Number two, respect.
We don't put our hands on each other, nor will we disrespect one another with our words.
Agreed? Next, participate. I need your participation, and
we're gonna start with that right now, so I'd love for, uh -- for you to step forward,
introduce yourself, and tell everybody why you're here. So, who's first?
Anybody? Oh, really? You're gonna make me call on you
like it's the third grade? Come on. Who's up on deck? You.
My brother, please, tell us your name and why you're here. >> Um...
Good evening. I'm Owen. And I'm here because...
my communication practices are outmoded and require a professional upgrade.
>> Alright. Well, first of all, nice to meet you, Owen. Does that mean you're having
some difficulty talking to your kid? >> Affirmative.
>> [ Scoffs, laughs ] >> I mean, yes. >> Alright, great. Thank you.
Who's next? >> I'm Marshall. I'm here because my wife hacked
my computer and threatened my thriving business. >> Alright. Okay.
Thank you, Marshall. >> Um, I'm José, and I'm here because I take it too easy on my
son. [ Chuckles ] >> Alright.
Nice to see you again, José. Alright. And? >> I'm Chauncey.
And I'm here 'cause my baby moms is a bitch. [ Laughter ]
>> Okay. >> Yeah. >> Well...
I love it. This is exciting. We got some work to do,
gentlemen.
** [ Sizzling ]
** >> What you makin'? >> Your favorite -- oxtails and
rice. >> Well, that's not how my mom makes it.
>> Well, do I look like your moms? And, plus, mine gonna taste
better than hers, anyway. Watch. >> Why are you mad at my mom?
>> Yo, Izzy, go watch TV or something. I need to concentrate on this so
I can make it right -- for you. >> But... >> Go!
>> You're a mean dad. >> Well, go to your room then! **
>> Alright, so...how's everybody feeling?
>> Good. >> Yeah. >> Yeah? Great.
Chauncey, you good? >> I'm Gucci. >> Alright, I'm peepin' your
body language, though, brother. [ Laughs ] Look like you got something you
need to get off your chest. >> Nah. I'm good, bro. Trust me.
>> Alright, hey, if you're gonna be here, you got to participate. House rule number three.
Alright? >> Yeah. >> So, what we're gonna do
today, gentlemen, is a little self-examination. What I would like for everybody
to do is to think of two very specific things that you've been struggling with and how you'd
like to improve that or fix that. Okay? Who wants to start?
Alright, Owen, go for it. >> I guess the first thing I'm
struggling with would be guilt. I feel bad about sort of abandoning my daughter all of
her life. >> And how old is your daughter? >> 31.
>> 31?! Damn! That ship has sailed! >> José, come on.
Remember rule number one, bro. >> Sorry. >> Alright, so, thank you for
that, Owen. So, what's the second thing you've been struggling with?
>> That would be my wife, Marjory. I mean, she's the reason I've
stayed out of my daughter's life all these years. I cheated, had an affair with my
ex during a troubling time in my marriage, and let's just say that, you know, she made sure
I'd never do that again. >> Happy wife, happy life. >> Amen.
>> [ Chuckles ] So, José, you seem very energetic tonight.
What are your two things? >> I don't have any struggles. I got a great relationship with
my son. Yeah, he's been acting out in school lately, but he's a good
kid. >> And isn't your son the one who's been cursing out his
teacher? >> Well, yeah, but it's not like he's the devil.
>> [ Scoffs ] Man, this is stupid, yo. >> Alright, now, Chauncey, you
can leave, man. The door's right there, and it's unlocked.
What you won't be is disrespectful in here, bro. Not in here.
Alright? We cool? >> Yeah. >> Alright, I appreciate that.
Alright, so, Marshall, two things. >> Video-game addiction...
and failure. >> Alright. Good. That's great, man.
** Alright, take it easy. **
What's happening, Owen? >> Uh...you got a minute? >> Sure, man. What's up?
>> Um... Um... >> Take your time, man.
What's on your mind? >> Well, really, I just wanted to ask your opinion on
something. >> Alright, sure. >> I saw online that my
daughter -- she teaches a cooking class two times a week. And...I was thinkin'...
>> [ Laughs ] I think it's a great idea for you to take her cooking class,
Owen. >> Y-You don't think it's a little creepy?
>> [ Laughs ] No. No. I think it's, uh...
I think it could be a neutral place for you two to get better acquainted.
I say go for it. >> Okay. >> Yeah, man.
>> I'll do it. >> Hey, give it a shot. **
>> [ Sighs ] ** **
[ Chuckles ] Marshall? >> Mom, he made buttermilk
biscuits. >> Uh-huh. >> That's right. So dig in, bud.
>> Ooh!
>> Okay. So...I went to rehab, and, as
you can tell, I'm cured. Oh, and, uh, I got you, baby. Get that for you.
Get you a nice, big piece. >> Mmm! >> Mm-hmm.
>> Thank you. >> Anyway, it's probably a waste of money for me to -- you know,
to keep going if I don't need it anymore. >> It's free.
And I'm not deactivating the malware until you finish it. >> But I'm losing out on,
potentially, tens of thousands of dollars a day, babe. >> More like 10 cents a day,
because none of your so-called businesses have turned a profit. >> Amazon wasn't built in a day.
Look, it takes time to build an empire. >> I'm not changing my mind,
Marshall. >> Okay. Then I am no longer sleeping
upstairs. How do you like them apples? >> Fine by me.
I'm not gonna miss you snoring and farting in bed, anyway. >> [ Laughs ]
** >> No. >> But...
>> Have you lost your mind?! Marshall!
** >> Hello! Welcome.
Buona sera. I hope you guys are excited, because tonight, you're gonna be
making risotto. [ Laughs ] Uh...uh-huh.
Uh, ah! [ Laughs ] I just remembered we are gonna
need more wine. You -- can you help me grab some more wine bottles, please?
Thanks.
What are you doing here? >> Uh, making risotto.
>> Don't get cute. You shouldn't be here. >> I already paid for the class.
>> Oh, I-I'll give you a refund. >> It's not refundable. >> I don't care.
This is my job, and you're a distraction. >> Nicole, I'm just trying to
get to know you better. I mean, this is not easy for me, either, you know?
>> Aww! Poor Daddy. Many years later and he grows a conscience.
I'm thrilled. Now leave! [ Stomping ]
[ Laughs ] Oh, that was a terrible misunderstanding.
That poor, pitiful guy was sent to the wrong class. [ Laughs ]
Now that that's out of the way, who is ready to make risotto? >> Actually...
I-I'm in the right class. I didn't introduce myself. I'm Owen.
>> Oh! ** **
>> What's up, Dad? >> What's up? >> How come we never hang out
anymore? >> [ Sighs ] I think you need a time-out from
having fun for a little while. >> You kidding me? It's me, your dude.
>> I don't like it either, D., but you can't be going around disrespecting people.
You know that. >> Then can I at least have money to get clothes for school
pictures next week? >> David! >> Dad, come on.
School pictures last forever. If I don't have a dope fit, then people are gonna clown me.
>> No. >> No? You're really gonna do me like that?
>> D., wait. **
>> Thanks. I love you, Dad. >> I love you, too.
**
>> What? Your hands broken? >> What?
>> You can't open the door for me? >> My bad, Mama.
>> Goodness, I swear. Just... You're stuck on stupid.
>> I'm sorry, okay? Can you just let me know where you want me to drop you off at?
>> Are you slow? I already told you today is Diana's baby shower.
>> Yes, ma'am. >> Can we go? >> Yes, ma'am.
** >> Yes. Knead, knead, massage. Aerate the dough.
Get those bubbles in it. That's good, 'cause that's what's gonna rise it.
It -- That's not the way you're supposed to do it.
Give me that. You have to beat the dough like you hate it!
So, beat it hard! [ Pounding, rattling ]
Show the dough you hate it. Show me you hate your dough.
Alright, good. >> I will never, ever look at pizza the same way again.
I especially liked that part when you...accidentally spilled
tomato sauce on my shoes. But learning all this cooking stuff makes me feel real cool,
you know? Or how y'all young people say it?
Lit. >> [ Laughs ] >> So, how long you been a chef?
>> Eight years. After I graduated from culinary school in Paris.
>> Wow! Paris? Impressive. >> Yeah, well, while my friends
were outside playing tag, I was in the house watching Emeril Lagasse's cooking show on
TV. >> I like that guy. "Bam!"
>> Um...I'm sorry I messed up your shoes.
That was unprofessional. >> I'm sorry I messed up your life.
That was unconscionable. >> Well, I got to, um, lock up. **
** **
>> Good night, Chef. >> Good night...Owen.
>> [ Gasps ] Crap! >> Tyler, time to get ready for
school. Ty, did you hear me? Don't make me come in there.
>> Okay, Mom. I heard you. ** **
>> Like I said, I didn't yell at her, a'ight?
Whatever, yo. Look, you ain't the best mother, either.
Get off my phone. [ Cellphone beeps ] >> Here's your order.
There you go. [ Cellphone vibrates ] >> Stop calling me, yo.
No, no. Ma. Yo, I'm sorry. I thought you was Brent.
No, I'm not arguing with you, Ma. Yes. I'm coming.
I'm gonna come pick you up. Just let me -- [ Cellphone beeps ]
[ Sighs ] >> What's up, bro? How you doin'?
>> Look, I couldn't help but overhear, Chauncey.
Was that your mother? Does she always yell at you like that?
Chauncey. Come on, man. You got to talk to me.
Does she yell at you a lot? >> Yeah. Every day. >> So when you were a kid, did
she -- did she beat you, hit you with things? >> No. Hold up.
Man, why would you even ask me something like that, man? Hold up. Come on, man.
>> When did it start, Chauncey? How old were you? >> Yo...
Stop it, alright? **
My whole life, all she ever did was tell me how stupid I was.
She even tell me that she wish I was never born.
>> How'd that make you feel?
>> Like I don't even matter. >> You ever try telling her?
>> [ Softly ] No. >> So...if you couldn't tell her, who could you tell?
>> Brandy. >> Your ex.
And what did she say? >> She'd tell me that I deserved better than that...
and that she would always be here for me. >> So, she loved you.
So, what happened?
>> One day, she just switched it up on me, you know?
Started hanging out with her girlfriends all the time. She would take Izzy out without
me. We would argue all the time, fighting.
>> What was your part in that? >> Nothing. I treated Brandy real good, you
know? And then she just, you know, started leaving me and doing me
dirty for no reason. But that's why she a bitch, though.
>> So, because you can't punish your mother for what she did to you, you're punishing Brandy
instead.
See what happens when you talk things out?
Okay, gentlemen, I want you to finish this sentence. I wish I didn't feel so...
** [ Sizzling ] >> Afraid.
** ** [ Indistinct conversations ]
** ** >> Forgotten.
** ** >> Hurt.
** ** >> Powerless.
** ** >> Good job, gentlemen.
Very good job, gentlemen. I'll see you next time.
>> Hey! >> Hey.
>> What's wrong? You're acting like your dog just
died. [ Laughs ] >> Nothing.
Just a little tired. >> Yeah, I see. You know, it's those long hours
at work. You know, it's taking a toll on you, baby.
>> I think... I just need a little sleep.
That's all. >> Mm-hmm.
** **
[ Horns honking ] ** **
>> Izzy. [ Groans ] Izzy!
Can you hear me, baby girl?
Izzy! Yo! Izzy, can you hear me?
Izzy, stop playin' with me. Yo...
** ** [ Breathes deeply ]
Hey, hey. Brandy, look -- No, no, no, no. I didn't -- I didn't call to
argue with you right now, alright? [ Sighs ]
Is Izzy with you? No. No. That's why I'm -- that's why I'm
calling you. Yeah, alright. Alright, alright. Alright.
I'm coming. ** **
[ Sighs ] ** [ Dog barking ]
>> But you and Mom said I could. >> That was before you called your teacher a bitch and skipped
detention, David. >> That's not fair. You made a promise.
>> It doesn't matter. You can't go. >> But everyone's gonna be
there! It's the biggest party of the year!
>> I said no, and that's final. ** >> Did he tell you to do this?
Why don't you mind your own business? >> Hey! Watch it!
>> I'm going to Tim's party. You can't stop me. >> David, get back here.
David! ** [ Door opens ]
This kid... >> Clearly, you can't let things go on like this.
This isn't healthy for you or David. >> Look -- I know David needs to
be checked. I just don't want him to see me as the enemy and push me away,
like he's doing right now. >> Push you away? Wait -- did someone push you
away, José? Is that why you're going so easy on him?
>> [ Clears throat ] My father. >> So, what?
He wasn't around much when you were a kid? >> No, he -- he was around.
He just chose not to be around me. Anytime he needed to say
anything, he would just send my uncle over instead. >> And why would he do that?
>> Pfft. Who knows? He could be dead or alive. I have no idea.
>> So, what about your uncle? >> I don't know, either. I haven't spoken to him in
years. I mean, I still know some of his old hangout spots, and I could
probably find him. But I just [Sighs] never had a reason to.
>> Well, I think you got plenty of reasons now. **
>> Have you seen her? She's my daughter! Oh, God.
>> Yo, yo, yo. Have you seen this girl out here?
Are you sure, man? ** Yo.
>> If anything happens to my baby, I promise you, I will make your life a living hell.
Trust me on that. >> Brandy. Come on, Brandy. Come here.
>> What?! >> Give me your phone, man. You gave her that damn phone.
It has a tracking app. She's right here. Come on.
[ Clattering ] >> I told you I was gonna make dinner.
>> Wouldn't want you to break a nail. >> You know, just 'cause I'm not
working doesn't mean I'm not working,Denise. What happened to standing by
your man? >> What man? **
[ Bangs pot ] >> I tried things the other way, and it still didn't work.
Don't you see that? I spent 12 years making my bosses rich, and they still let
me go! Because they had the power. I'm not gonna let that happen
anymore. This time? I got the power. >> Well, that's not gonna pay
the mortgage now, is it, Marshall? I mean, unless you want us to be
put out on the street. [ Gasps ] >> Denise, Denise!
>> Aah! >> Are you okay? >> Oh, God!
>> There she go, right there. ** Izzy!
Izzy, come here. >> What the hell were you thinking, huh?!
Answer me! What were you thinking?! >> Wait, no.
>> Answer me when I'm talking to you! >> No, Brandy.
Don't handle her like that. Come on, Brandy. >> Are you serious, Chauncey?
>> No, look. She's okay now, alright? She's okay.
We got her. >> Chauncey, she needs to learn her lesson.
I figure out of all people, you would understand. >> Then, can I do it, please?
Can I teach her, please? >> [ Scoffs ] >> Come here.
Listen to me, okay? The first lesson that I need you to learn is forgiveness,
alright? 'Cause you were right, baby. I have been a mean daddy to you.
And I'm sorry, okay? I've already asked God to forgive me.
But now, baby... ** ...I need you to forgive me,
too, okay? Do you forgive me? You still love me?
[ Laughs ] I love you. We both do.
**
[ Monitor beeping ]
>> Okay, so, I'll be honest. At first, it did look like a
miscarriage, just superficially, the symptoms were -- oh, no, don't panic.
It -- it wasn't. You have fibroids, three. Two of them are the size of golf
balls, and that can definitely impact your cycle. It can cause excessive bleeding
and longer periods. >> Pain? >> Yes, absolutely.
It can vary in intensity, but stress certainly doesn't help. It can impact the estrogen and
progesterone balance, and it can trigger excessive output in the adrenal-stress hormones.
There's -- there's nothing life-threatening happening here. It's just that third fibroid
does look a little bit iffy. And if it's outgrown the blood supply, that's great.
But we would rather be on the safe side, if that's okay with you?
Okay. Well, I will check back in with you in a little while.
Okay. Mr. Douglas? >> Uh, thank you, doctor.
>> Okay.
>> Baby... I am so sorry.
>> Sorry, Marshall? Did you hear anything that the doctor just said?
>> Yeah, it's not a miscarriage. >> It's stress, Marshall! Stress is causing me physical
pain. >> How is that my fault? >> Are you even listening to
yourself anymore? The stress, Marshall -- you are causing all of us.
** Well, are you happy now? You finally got the power...
and destroyed our family. ** **
[ Indistinct conversations ]
>> Excuse me. I'm looking for a guy that used
to hang out here. Um, this was kind of his spot -- Peter Rodriguez?
>> If you're looking for Pete, I got bad news for you. He pass about two years ago.
** You knew him? >> Um, yeah, he was my uncle.
>> Get a drink on me. >> [ Sighs ] >> Hey.
That's too much lemon, Beverly. >> Oh. >> A little goes a long way,
people. Okay, now gradually add in the sugar.
No, that's flour. Mm-hmm. That's the sugar. Right.
Now mix it in, nice and steady, till it starts to stiffen. [ Whisk rattling ]
That's it! Good, Owen! Alright, guys, keep the slow
mixing going. ** >> Another great class, Nicole.
>> Thank you, Owen! Oh, you are actually starting to get the hang of it.
And I'm really glad you are pitching in because my rehearsal dinner is tonight.
>> Oh, that's right. Tomorrow's the big day. >> I am amazed that I'm so calm
about it. [ Chuckles ] >> Hey, I'm happy that you're
happy.
I know I caused you a lot of pain, and I make no excuse for
that, not anymore. But for whatever it's worth... I think that you're a beautiful
person inside and out. And I wish you nothing less than the very best in your marriage.
>> Thank you, Owen.
Well, maybe you could, I don't know...swing by?
The ceremony? If you want. Sorry. Um, no.
Uh, that was stupid. [ Chuckles ] >> Nicole...
I would be honored. ** **
>> I think I remember you. Pete used to bring you around
when you were a kid. >> Did you know my father? >> Your old man and Pete would
sit here, talking about you for hours. Don't think he didn't want to be
your father. It's just...times were different then.
>> What kind of excuse is that? The only male role model I had in my life was my Uncle Pete,
and every time I saw him, it reminded me of how much my father didn't want me.
>> It wasn't that simple, José. >> It wasn't? Tell me.
What am I getting wrong? He abandoned me. >> Abandoned you?
>> Yeah. It was just me and my mom, and Uncle Pete came by every Sunday.
And that was it. >> I didn't abandon you. >> What?
>> I didn't abandon you, José. ** Look...
Um... I'm gay, okay? **
Back then, the worst thing that you could be on the street was, you know, a fag, a queen, a
sissy. ** >> What?!
>> Yes, it was different times then. People weren't so understanding.
I tried to hide it from everyone, myself included. It got too hard...
and too dangerous for you to be around me. >> H-how could it be dangerous
to be around my own father? >> People got sick ideas, but, um, I wanted you to have a man
to look up to, because I wasn't brave enough to be your dad.
>> My Uncle Pete, he would always say, "Remember, your papi loves you, mijo."
** I waited my whole life to hear my own father say those words.
>> Yeah. >> I would have loved you, no matter what -- gay, straight, or
whatever -- because you're my father. **
[ Door opens ] >> [ Laughs ]
[ Door closes ] [ Keys jangle ] >> Whoo!
That Beverly, I tell you! [ Both laugh ] >> Owen!
So, this is work training? Huh? >> Marjory, please.
>> No, no, no. >> You -- you don't understand. >> No, I understand.
You've been caught red-handed. >> Oh, this is a misunderstanding.
>> Oh, heifer, you better hush, because I am not talking to you! And as for you -- you're gonna
do this to me again? You're gonna cheat on me again? Huh?
>> I'm not cheat-- >> Somebody that's half your age.
>> Marjory, I'm not cheating on you. >> Why are you lying to me?
>> This is my daughter. >> What? Oh, you promised.
I'm not gonna relive this. You promised me that you weren't gonna have anything to do with
this situation, that you weren't gonna have anything to do with her.
You know what? I'm done. Last chance. >> Marjory --
>> No, no, no. No. I'm not gonna compete with this.
I gave you everything. I forgave you for what you did. And this is what you give me in
return? You need to make a choice, 'cause there's only room for one
woman in this family. You better choose wisely. Who's it gonna be?
>> Nicole -- >> Look. She looks like she means it.
So, you better go. >> Let's go, Owen. >> In case you're wondering,
as far as being my cooking student, you get an A-plus. But as far as being my father...
[ Sighs, laughs ] ...you're smart enough to figure that out.
** **
>> I messed up once. >> Once is enough.
>> It was 32 years ago. And I've been trying to win back your trust ever since.
But I couldn't because I wasn't living my truth. Yeah, I made a mistake.
But I'm done paying for it. >> Tsk. The deal was that you were not
supposed to have any interaction with that bastard child of yours, period!
>> My daughter's name is Nicole. And you will not sit here and disrespect her.
>> Disrespect her? What about your sons? How do you think that they will
feel when they find out? Oh, they have a sister, their same age, by some other woman?
>> I think they'd be thrilled. >> Okay. Well...what about me?
What about my friends and my family, like, I mean, how, how...
Owen, how does this look? >> Who care about your raggedy-ass friends and family?
>> I care! >> Look -- we gonna have to stop living this façade, Marjory.
Life is messy, and that's just the way it is. I stepped out.
I had a child. >> Mm. >> But it was selfish of us to
make her suffer for it. Well, I'm not gonna miss another important moment in her life.
Nicole is getting married to-- My daughter is getting married today.
And I'm going to her wedding. And I would love it if my wife would be there by my side.
** >> Owen... if you go to that wedding...
don't come back. ** **
[ Birds chirping ]
>> Hey, Mr. Arnold? >> Hey, uh, Marshall.
Where are you? >> In the basement. It's a security app.
Come on in. >> Alright. [ Chuckles ]
** **
>> I know it looks a little janky, but it was a solid plan to get back in the game.
>> Yeah, but scamming people, Marshall? That's not you.
>> I was just tired of losing, man. **
Seems like everybody out here is living their best life. So, I thought I could, too.
Why not? >> I mean, you know this is gonna pass over, right?
>> When? Because every time I look up, another day has gone by, and I'm
still sitting here, unemployed, feeling like less than a man. >> At the end of the day, you've
got a family who's there for you, Marshall. >> Not the way things are going.
>> Okay. Yeah, you did say that things have been a little tough for you
and your wife. >> I had to take Denise to the hospital.
We didn't know if it was a miscarriage or...I don't know. I mean, you read about this all
the time, right? I didn't know whether she was gonna live or...
** >> Yeah, um, nothing quite like the fear of losing someone you
love. ** You know, Marshall, I, um, I
lost my daughter six years ago. My failure as a father led her to go looking for daddy into the
arms of some 20-something-year-old drug dealer who could give her more
than I could. They got into an argument. He beat her to death.
She was 16. And where was I? At a bar with some woman whose
name I don't even remember. But you got a chance to fix things with your son.
Don't miss that opportunity. Trust me. >> Tyler won't even talk to me.
>> Marshall, just keep trying. He'll come around. And when he does, be there for
him. >> What about Denise? >> My specialty is dads.
>> [ Laughs ] >> Alright? When it comes to wives, you're
on your own.
>> Hey. >> Hey. He home?
>> Yeah, he's upstairs in his room sulking because he can't go to the party tonight.
[ Music blaring ] What in the world? **
>> D., what do you think you're doing? We told you you can't go to the
party. >> He's not going. >> He's not coming.
** >> What did you do that for? >> Get inside the house, David.
>> No, but -- >> Now! >> Get your ass inside!
>> Okay. >> [ Sighs ]
>> Who are you, and what did you do with José? >> Was I too hard on him?
Should I go check up on him? >> No! No, no, no. You will not do that.
No. What is going on with you, José? >> Let's go inside and talk.
You might want to sit down for this. **
>> Alright, baby girl, let's get you. Be a good girl, okay?
Keep your hair out of your mouth. [ Knock on door ]
That's your mama. [ Sighs ] **
[ Door opens ] >> Mommy! >> Oh!
[ Laughs ] Hey, boopa. Are you okay?
>> Yeah. We made cupcakes, but they came out wrong.
So, we had to eat them all to hide the evidence. >> Right.
>> Oh. Okay, well, it sounds like someone had a good time this
weekend. >> It's always a fun weekend whenever Daddy's not
Mr. Grumpy Pants. >> Oh. Oh. Okay, um, honey, why don't you
go wait for me in the car while I talk to Daddy for a few minutes, okay?
>> Okay. >> Yeah, baby. Get your bag.
She did her math homework last night, you know?
I helped her, but... >> I'm sure it's fine. >> Right.
>> She's happy, Chauncey, and it shows. >> Good. What about you?
Are you happy? >> Not quite. Getting there. You keep working on your
"grumpy pants." [ Chuckles ] **
>> [ Chuckles ] **
** [ Knocking ]
[ Door creaks ]
>> [ Sniffing ]
[ Sniffing ] [ Sighs ]
[ Birds chirping ] [ Indistinct conversations ]
>> Okay, you can play. ** **
>> No. No, you will not ruin this day
for her. Leave now before she sees you. >> Stacy, I did not come all
this way not to see my only daughter get married. >> Stacy, listen. I'm sorry.
>> Excuse me? >> It's my fault. I kept Owen away from Nicole all
those years, and when he told me he was coming to her wedding today, I thought about it, and I
have two sons. And I would just hate for them to experience anything like
this. So, just please forgive us. [ Door opens ]
[ Violin continues ] ** >> What are you doing here?
>> Baby, listen. If you want him to leave, just say the word.
Mom's got this. ** **
[ Birds chirping ] ** **
>> You look amazing. Nicole... I just...I just want --
>> No! It is too late. >> Please.
>> Hey, what are you doing? I'm trying to get married. >> If I could turn back the
clock, I would do it in a heartbeat. But I can't undo the birthdays
that I missed, the boyfriends that I should have chased away. But I have watched you grow up
from afar. And I've always been proud of you.
Every letter that your mother, picture that she sent to me is right here in this book.
Every time your name was mentioned in the sports pages, the article is right here.
[ Voice breaking ] I'm ashamed I wasn't brave enough to be a part of your life before.
But now I'm reclaiming my time, right here, right now, because I want to be in your life, Nicole,
just because you're my daughter. [ Birds chirping ] **
If you will have me. ** >> I'll see you up there.
>> And he had been there all those years? >> Yes.
I remember going to the bar with my Uncle Pete and the bartender being so nice to me.
>> And that was your father. >> Mm-hmm. >> Wow.
>> Yeah. >> I don't know, José. I think you need to unpack this
and see a therapist. There's nothing wrong with that. >> [ Sighs ]
[ Door opens ] >> Where do you think you're going?
>> I'm moving out. >> [ Laughs ] Good luck out there with no
money. >> Really. >> Then I'll get a job.
>> Boy, sit down. [ Bag thuds ] >> [ Sighs ]
D., you know I love you, right? And all I want is the best for
you. But you can't keep acting out of pocket and expect things to go
your way. It just doesn't work like that. >> But, Dad --
>> But I'm not finished. Okay, we both need to make some changes, and starting right now,
I'm not your buddy anymore. I was trying to be someone like my father, but you're not a kid
anymore. So, starting right now, I'm gonna step it up and show you
how to be a man. Okay? Now come here and give me a hug.
And you're grounded for two weeks. Go put your stuff away.
[ Exhales sharply ]
** **
>> You have a beautiful
daughter, Owen. ** [ Birds chirping ]
**
>> [ Chuckles ] **
** >> How you doing?
Owen. Nicole's father. Listen.
Take good care of her, man, or you won't see these hands again. That's a nice suit, too.
** >> [ Laughs ] **
>> You know, this is nothing to be ashamed of, Ty.
When I was little, I used to wet the bed, too. And each time I did, my dad
would take away my video games to punish me. Then, my aunt took me to a
doctor, who told us that I was still wetting the bed because I was grieving the loss of my mom
the year before. I guess what I'm saying is that if you're wetting the bed, that
just means that something must be really bothering you. So, I don't want you to worry
about me and your mom anymore. That's not your job. Okay?
Okay. So, I've been thinking. >> Oh, no.
>> [ Laughs ] I have all this extra space in my man cave.
Think maybe we could squeeze in a robotics lab in there? >> That'll work!
>> That'll work? >> Yeah! >> Alright, we should go get it
set up. >> Wait. Can you make some more
buttermilk biscuits? >> Yeah, I can do that. >> [ Laughs ]
>> Let's go. ** **
[ Car door shuts ] >> Oh, my feet are on fire! Damn, stupid heifer cut my
cuticles too deep. Mm. Why we still sitting here?
Drive! >> Ma, I, um, I need to talk to you about something.
>> Did you not just hear what I just said? My feet hurt.
Are you deaf, or are you just stupid? >> That!
That right there. Why do you feel the need to talk to me like that, Ma?
I know that I'm not nowhere near perfect, alright? But I am a man, okay?
I am a grown-ass man, and you don't have to talk to me like that.
>> Can we please speed up whatever this is? My feet are hurting.
>> I heard you, okay? But can you listen to me for once, please?
>> I don't know what you think -- >> You don't have to talk to me
like that. >> But I'm your mother! >> Then why don't you act like
it? For once?! Please?! >> Take me home, Chauncey.
>> No. >> Now. >> No!
>> Take me... >> Ma, look at me! >> ...home.
>> Was it my father, huh? Did my father used to beat you or something?
>> Your father never laid a hand on me in his life. Don't you dare.
>> Then what is it, Ma? What is it? Why do you hate me so much?
>> I don't hate you. >> You have to hate me, Ma. Because if you loved me, you
wouldn't treat me like trash. >> H-how do I treat you? I mean, stop talking stupid.
>> Like that! You don't have to talk to me like that, Ma!
I'm a man. Stop talking to me -- >> I had a plan!
I had a life! >> What? >> I danced.
Your father and I, we fooled around. One thing led to another.
Next thing I know, I'm pregnant. And this fool [Scoffs] he gonna say, "Marry me."
And so, what was I supposed to do? >> What about your family?
>> Do you remember your grandmother? >> No, Mama, I don't remember
her. >> Well, now you know why. She threw my ass out.
I went to live with your father, and he turned around and walked his happy ass on out the door,
too. [ Chuckles ] And there I was...alone, with
your crying ass. And then there was rent and feeding you, babysitters.
There were jobs and worse jobs and worse jobs than that. And there I've been the last
35 years here. I had a life. I had plans.
I wanted to be somebody, too! You asking me why I'm salty. [ Scoffs ]
>> I didn't ask for none of this, Mama. I didn't ask to be here.
>> Yeah, well -- >> Alright? If you didn't want me, if you
didn't want me here, then why didn't you just give me up, huh? >> What kind of goddamn question
is -- listen. You a parent now. You tell me.
You tell me, like, you didn't fall in love with that little girl the second you laid her in
your arms? ** Hate you?
[ Chuckles ] Why does it even got to be all of that, Chauncey?
I just... ** I had a life.
I had plans. And here -- here -- is where I am.
** ** >> I'll take you home, Mama.
>> Well, it's hot in here. Can you turn the A.C. on, or is that too much to ask?
** [ Sighs ] It's not cold enough.
Let me just do it. **
>> Well, look.
I'm throwing a get-together this weekend for my daughter before she goes on her honeymoon.
Be great if you guys could stop by, maybe bring the kids. >> Not if it's Saturday.
I'm taking my daughter, Izzy, to Mystical Mountain. >> And David and me got a
session at the family therapist. >> Nice! >> I have to check my work
schedule. >> What?! Damn, Marshall.
You got a job? >> Yeah, doing what? [ Laughter ]
>> Oh, man, that's rich. Look, man. It's so wonderful to have you
brothers back, man. Unfortunately, this is our last session.
But, uh, you all hung in there, and I think you should be very proud of yourselves.
** >> I think I'm gonna need another session.
>> Hey, man, as many sessions as you need, José. Anybody else?
I mean, remember. This door never locks. **
Oh, yeah? Check this out. [ Laughs ]
And a two-for-one at that. Love it. So, listen.
I think today, what I would really love to do is for each of you to just, you know, share
what it's been like in the program. Who's first?
[ Laughter ] Alright. **
>> It's a nice house. >> I know, right?
>> [ Laughs ] ** Alright.
>> Hey, José. ** >> Whoa.
>> Who said that? ** >> Yeah, now you just got to
push that button to unlock it. There you go. **
Yeah, it's got lights. You can turn the air on if you
want to. >> Oh! **
>> Hey. >> What's happening, man?
>> What's up? >> Good to see you, man. >> This is David, and yes, he is
just as handsome as me. >> [ Laughs ] >> Heard a lot of good things
about you. >> Hey, Dad, can I have something to eat?
>> Yeah, go ahead. >> Hey, José! >> Oh!
>> You made it, man. >> Yep. >> Guys, this is my little
princess. This is Izzy. >> What's up, Izzy?
>> [ Laughs ] Okay! How was Mystical Mountain
yesterday? >> Fun! >> Go over there.
>> She's beautiful. >> Thanks, man. >> Too bad she got you as a
father. [ Laughter ] >> He just mad 'cause I took all
his money. We was playing poker. >> Oh!
>> Ooh. >> No! You let this dude take your
money? >> Yeah. >> You can't let him rob you.
>> Ah! This guy! Hey, boss. >> What's up, Chauncey?
Good to see you, man. Owen? >> How you get in here?
>> Actually, your lovely wife let me in. What's up, Marshall?
>> Mr. Arnold. >> Good to see you, man. >> Oh, I'll be right back.
>> No, no, no, no. Actually, just give them a minute.
It's cool. Give them a minute. >> Dad, can we go to the mall later?
I still want to get those kicks that just dropped. Can we pleasego to the mall
later? >> I'll think about it. Anything you want to say?
>> Oh, um, hi, Mr. Arnold. Good afternoon? >> [ Chuckles ]
Yes, it is. It's a very good afternoon. [ Chuckles ]
Good to see you, David.
>> Hey, get your son.
[ Laughter ] Speaking of...
that's my son. He built that.
>> He built that robot? >> Yes, sir.
>> Wow! >> He's gonna be the next tech
billionaire. >> Yo, let's get one for the
'Gram, huh, guys? >> Yeah, come on.
>> Let's go. Alright. Squeeze in there. Get in there.
Alright, 1, 2, 3... >> [ Laughs ]
