Ohh, The BLOCC is hot, The BLOCC is hot. Heh, heh.

The BLOCC is hot. The BLOCC is hot. Heh, heh.

Kelly Rowland: We can't always change what's happening around us,

but we can always change what's happening within us.

I'mma embrace it, Kelly Rowland.

-I know! -Ah! Girl, you are early.

Oh, girl. I had to get out the house.

My roommate and her man be fuckin' too loud.

My roommate is my Mama,

and her man is my Daddy. Plate or bag?

Bag, duh. Thank you.

-Tort puns be funny. -I aim to please.

Oh, all right. Look, before we close out,

I need help spearheading the rebranding presentation

-at the retreat. -Oh, um, I can do it.

Great.

Thanks. Hope you enjoy.

I love comin' to these.

The last few you did was so good.

Thank you. I'm so glad to hear that.

You saved my life.

Ah.

-(smacks) -Wake up! You missin' it.

That's crazy. What?

-Girl, I'm tired. -Mmm.

I think I'm gonna go lay down.

-You got me my own pillow? -Yeah.

If you're gon' keep spendin' the night,

I want you to be comfortable.

Aww.

Also, your head kept deflatin' mine.

You couldn't just do a nice thing?

-Thank you. -Mm-hm.

Both: Goodnight.

You're my best friend...

Issa: Shh. That's not how it goes.

("Freeze" by Kari Faux ft. Ymtk & Amal Marie playing)

So, we want it to be just like

that last event you did here.

Issa: Oh, the coding workshop.

So you all want iPads and loose cables everywhere?

Nah, I mean, there were a bunch of people.

That's what we want.

But not too many people

because we already got a whole bunch of RSVPs.

Oh, well, about that...

Are y'all sold on havin' the one-year here?

'Cause you could get more bang for your buck

in a bigger, more open location.

Hey, I got a hookup at a car wash parkin' lot.

You just gotta work one shift.

Y'all still talkin' 'bout this party?

Aric, your client is hot.

Okay? He been waitin',

his wife just went into labor,

and he need to shape up real quick.

-So, what's up? -Labor? That's what he's sayin'?

Come do your job.

So, about these locations,

what you thinking, 'cause we gotta stay within this budget.

Uh, well, normally when I'm working with a client,

they make sure that I'm well fed

'cause my best ideas require sustenance.

Oh, well, I'm glad I'm not one of them clients

'cause, you know, you gotta set your expectations lower.

-Oh, okay. Cheap clients. -Wow. Okay.

You have a lot of options.

You can try Ladera Park or Hermosa Beach.

Or the church on Adams has a parking lot that's super spacious.

-Okay, you know this party 'bout to get unholy. -(scoffs)

But I could-- I could check out the other two though.

-Okay. -How you feel about tomorrow?

I feel good.

It took like six months of me wooin' Nadia,

and then another two months to convince

the Nothing But Water team,

but... it's all finally happenin'.

All right. I see you.

-Entrepreneur shit. -Entrepre-noire.

Oh, they're tryin' to set a mood up in here.

It looks like it's working.

-Damn. -(both laugh)

So what else do you have goin' on tonight?

Um, I got plans downtown later.

Oh, those kinda plans?

What about you?

Hangin' with Molly. It's freaky Friday,

so we're gonna watch "Any Given Sunday."

That's what makes it so freaky.

-Okay. -(laughing)

Hey! So y'all can do all this renovation work,

and you still can't call the estate planner that I connected you with?

See, we knew you were gonna ask, so...

There you go.

Molly: Y'all wrote your will in pencil?

Well, I had to erase a few things because

: Jerome pissed me off.

Mom, Dad, this limp, loose leaf of paper

does not qualify as estate planning.

You actually have to go through lawyers--

Herbert: Hey, Molly.

Hi.

Molly, you remember Herbert.

You know, Herbert from church, Herbert.

Herbert, that became a deacon at 15, Herbert?

You remember.

Carol: We were at choir rehearsal,

and I told him that you two should connect.

Herbert plays the organ and you listen to music, so.

Sometimes, I try to play songs that the kids can really connect to.

I rework trap songs for the Lord.

What? I'm just tryin' to get you back in circulation.

Okay. So, Mom,

I'm really not pressed to be dating right now.

I'm actually just focusing on me.

Well, don't focus too long.

I mean, you still gotta meet a man, date him.

That's two more years, could be more.

Then me and your Daddy gotta save up for a big wedding.

That's at least two more years.

Could be more.

I mean, by the time you're married,

maybe, your Daddy could roll ya down the aisle

because he'll be in a wheelchair.

Because he'll be old, Molly.

I'm just saying that, in this situation,

-I would rather-- -Hey, Molly. Found one of the songs.

And this is the framework of Crenshawn's show

as he highlights how he got into fashion while incarcerated.

As you can see, Quoia is already rockin'

one of Crenshawn's designs.

You can take it from day to night with a blazer.

I mean, it's day right now,

but it'll be night later.

That makes sense.

And Crenshawn actually hires former inmates,

so that they can get the experience

to find jobs on the outside.

Thank you.

-Wow. -Wow.

Wow. What you and Shawn

have come up with is incredible.

And his story? So inspiring.

You really blew us away like (imitates explosion).

Thank you so much. That means a lot.

I'm so excited that this is all finally comin' together.

Oh, agreed. Agreed.

Um, I'm-- I'm a little concerned

that this show might be a bit

big for Crenshawn's level of experience.

-What do you mean? -Uh, well, it's pretty long,

it's at the high end of our budget,

and I noticed in the presentation,

there's supposed to be, um, a group of drummers,

interpretive dancers, uh, multimedia,

and people on lowrider bicycles?

Yeah, I don't know how you show perseverance without lowriders.

I mean, this is what we talked about from the beginning.

Yeah, I know it's last minute,

but we have some relationships with a few artists

that are on the same vibe as Shawn...

but they're a bit more...

established and experienced.

Yeah, artists like Blue Parrot, Renaissance, Edikt.

Yeah, I'm familiar, but none of them

are from the community, like Crenshawn is.

Yeah, well, um, there's a lot of great options,

so think about it.

Great work.

-(knocking at door) -It's open!

Issa: No, I get it.
