Claws

Mama got us a second salon!

be my wife.

What?

Call an ambulance.

This brush with death

has got me thinking about what's

What's truly important.

Family. Family.

I think I finally found the one.

Yeah? Yeah.

Oh, let me -- I'll show you.

Is this a joke?

Ken, that's my daughter.

Oh, god.

Hey, there. Hey.

You okay?

I can see your eyes! Your pupils are like pinholes.

What are you doing? Y -- y'all just calm down.

Maybe you need to step off, gold tooth,

and let me talk to my wife.

How about that? What you gonna do?

What happened? Clay's people.

They pissed 'cause you stole they business.

It's over, desna.

Juanda: If you had someone you could mold into your own image,

you'd be immortal.

And when the time is right, you snatch that baby.

Hey, what are you doing here?

I got that 911 text from des.

Oh, yeah.

What's wrong, pol? Oh, lord.

Publix stopped selling your favorite mustache bleach.

Um, I'm marrying the baron.

And, uh, I laser, thank you very much.

He's still alive?

Yeah, thanks to me he got a reason to live.

Ohh! You know what I'm saying?

So we're gonna elope tonight.

Oh, shit.

You're, like, really having feelings for this guy?

Yeah.

It's just that, the thing is, is that the baron

thinks he's marrying someone he's not.

So? Oh, god.

Just live a lie like the rest of us.

Oh, like you really love giving blowjobs?

okay?

Hey, interrupting the donut party

'cause I got news.

Talk about news -- pol's getting hitched tonight.

what the what?

Yeah!

congrats, pol.

I -- I --

This is some much-needed light in all this darkness.

I'll host for you, girl.

We gonna lay your wedding out.

Ooh, like, uh, eva marcille from "atlanta housewives?"

mm. Put a pin in it for one second.

We got something serious to discuss.

My cruise ship deal was none of desna's business.

I didn't know what des was gonna do.

Were you born this stupid?!

Oh, my god, ann.

I promise you I was not trying to hurt you.

Well, you did, because without that paper,

I am stuck in this shithole town.

Okay, but whose fault is it that our claws up crew

got they asses whooped?

oh, you wrong for that.

You know des is gonna come back after you, right?

She should know by now I ain't scared of her.

everything that I've been working my ass off for

is gone, it's destroyed.

Clay and that bitch quiet ann

put a beatdown on the claws up consultants.

All of them!

Well, that don't sound very friendly-like. Mnh-mnh.

Half of them are in the hospital,

but all of them quit.

Claws up is officially broke down,

and so is our goddamn empire.

Christ in a banana hammock.

Well, are we fixin' to pack up and go home?

Hell, no.

I'ma bust through that shit, that's what I'm gonna do.

Oh-ho! If this ain't a gangsta right chyeah.

Right chyeah.

But before I do anything, I'm gonna make sure

that hick-dick clay husser is destroyed.

Mm. Mark my words.

Ooh, consider it marked.

Will you make him cry, though?

You know I love it when bald men cry.

Oh, I'm gonna make him cry

like a goddamn baby.

To the decimation of claws up.

Ha-ha! Hell yeah!

Say bye-bye to bad rubbish.

how about you there, son? You look a little bit reluctant.

No, no. Not me, uncle daddy.

No, no, no, no. Unh-unh, no.

I got your back on everything you're doing with desna.

Well, that's good to hear, son,

'cause I'm gonna tell you something --

There's only one goal right now,

and that's building a legacy for the next generation.

Now I'm gonna try to put that, uh,

big-titty tyrant out of my mind

and do me some brainstorming.

Mm.

I got an idea.

You do?

This morning I was -- I was at a 12-step meeting,

and there was this guy there who runs a chain

of sleep disorder clinics.

What the hell's that?

It's a place where nobody sleeps good but everybody wants to,

and they will pay real green to get their "z" s on.

Maybe my guy can slip his clients our patches.

hey!

That's a good idea, right there.

I like that idea.

That is not bad.

I mean, it's low.

But it's a good low. I like low and smart.

Alright! I gotta go.

Where you going, quiet mama? We poppin' some ideas here.

I got an appointment.

I gotta see somebody about some baby supplies.

Well, by all means, you take care of that

precious little life growing in your tummy.

There ain't nothin' in the whole world

more important than our baby.

oh, great and powerful spirit, please...

Speak to us.

Yes, spirit.

Should I tell the baron about my true identity?

Is it broken?

Okay, it takes time to... Invoke the spirit.

Oh. If you know what I'm saying.

Oh, yeah. Like in "the craft."

one time I put a hex on my daddy

after he came on to my babysitter,

and clearly that didn't work either.

Speaking of messy situations,

girl, ann was all kinds of pissed today.

Mm-hmm. But I stepped to her.

Oh, did you? Mm-hmm, sure did.

And now, we gonna step up.

Palmetto ain't big enough for two major dealers.

Okay, griselda blanco.

That part.

See, except we don't go for kneecaps.

We going for elbows.

If I can get dr. Ken working exclusively

for my black ass, goodbye right hand.

Ooh, speak on it!

Then I get rid of the left.

All I gotta do is get bryce on my team

and take his damn patches.

I'ma take everything clay husser has,

and then we rise up... Together.

Okay, so I want you

to come work exclusively for me,

and I'll match what he's paying you.

Hell, I might be able to double it.

hello?

are you listening? I'm looking for flights.

I -- I heard you. And the answer's no.

The current arrangement's working...

It's fine. It's -- it's fine.

Kenneth.

Don't you want to give your girlfriend

the life she deserves?

You know you can't do that without a bag of money.

And how long are you supposed to make this girl wait?

Hmm? When is the time?

Right now. You goddamn right.

Trust me.

You do this, you're gonna be on top of the world.

Yeah. Okay.

Right now.

yes.

hey, hey there. I got your text.

What's wrong? Oh, um, just same old,

hershey drop.

Uh, I just -- I got to thank you

for letting me cry on your shoulder.

I was, um -- I was deep in the shenanigans.

Oh, no.

Thanks, but I'm clean, shorty.

You keep that.

Well, you could just, um, save it for a rainy day.

Mm-hmm.

Man, y'all surely is going hard on a wedding

for a dude y'all barely know.

Well, because it's for polly-pol.

Now, we are gonna make tonight magical,

'cause, uh,
