God Friended Me

Previously, on "God Friended Me"...

Oh! Take that, old man!

Old? I'm the youngest member

of the board of your daddy's church.

Yeah, that building's gonna be a game-changer.

And everyone in the community

is pulling for you, Terrence.

- (ALL CHEERING) - Oh, my God!

Just want to thank everyone

for coming out and helping celebrate

my aunt and uncle on their 25th anniversary.

I thought you were enjoying yourself.

I was just putting on a good face for our family.

I have it under control.

Everything's gonna be fine.

Sunday morning.

It means something different to everyone.

Church, brunch, football,

hitting the snooze button and waking up an hour later.

Truth is,

it doesn't matter how you spend your Sunday.

What matters is who you spend your Sunday with.

The people in your life. Your village.

Your friends. Your family.

They're the ones behind you.

The ones you count on

that are always there for you.

Have faith in them.

Because when you do, good things happen.

Having faith in each other

is the true meaning of God.

That is the reason this church stands firmly.

The reason we can build towards a better tomorrow.

The reason, I am proud to say,

that Harlem Episcopal has finally raised enough funds

to build our Children's Center.

Oh, bam!

Mmm.

Arthur, that Children's Center

is a major accomplishment.

I'm sorry that Lena couldn't join us today.

She's feeling a little under the weather.

Everything okay with you two?

Yeah, yeah. I mean, I know what you saw at the party,

but we're good.

- Hey, guys. - Hey. There he is.

- What's happening? - Hey.

Miles, you are just in time.

I am one move away from checkmating your uncle.

Your king is unprotected.

No, sir. See, what you call that

- is a strategy, okay. - Mm-hmm.

How's the marketing class going?

Oh, it couldn't be better.

I was, uh, unaware that you were back in school.

Oh, it's... it's an extension course, Dad.

Uncle T hooked me up with one of his professors.

Uh-huh.

- No, no, no, no! - Check. Mate.

- Every time... - (PHONE RINGING)

You're lucky. I got this, excuse me a second.

Yep?

Look, Dad, I was gonna tell you about the class.

Yeah. Of course.

No, no, no, no, no.

That is not what we discussed.

All right. I'll be right there.

- Is everything okay? - Yeah, just...

just gotta head down to the construction site

and handle a couple things.

Y'all keep playing.

Don't let this man win, okay?

It's bad for his ego.

He seems stressed.

Your uncle's always got a million things going on.

I'm sure he will be fine.

Everything okay?

So how'd dinner go with Eli?

Uh, awkward at first, but...

then kinda great.

You gonna see him again?

Uh... yeah, I don't know.

I'm still figuring it out.

You know, it's nice to be able to

talk to you about this kind of stuff.

It's nice to be here and listen.

Care Bear.

Dad?

Surprise.

I would have called, but this is more...

Hello, Jeffrey.

Susan.

God, you should have seen his face.

- And her face. - I'm surprised you didn't

tell your dad, I thought you two were close.

Yeah, well, we are.

But could you imagine that phone call?

"Hey, Dad, remember the woman who

"Left us and never came back,

"Broke your heart into, like, a million little pieces?

"Well, actually, we've been hanging out

"And like, totally bonding.

How are things with you?"

I wouldn't lead with that.

Can I just say something here?

It is truly refreshing to see someone else spiral.

So thank you.

Oh, by the way, I sent the God account's new firewall

to this old friend of mine.

If anybody can help crack it, it's her.

Good, because whoever's behind the God account

really upped their game.

I got a new friend suggestion.

It's for my Uncle Terrence.

Thing is, we're already friends.

God account's getting personal.

This is the first time you've gotten a suggestion

for someone you know.

Do you have any idea

why they would have sent you his name?

No. Terrence is one of the most

important people in my life.

And yet, somehow the God account

knows something is wrong before I do?

Well, it's a good thing you got his name, then.

You could figure out how to help him.

Nephew.

Ha ha!

You in the big leagues now, Uncle T!

Pretty impressive, huh?

It looks amazing, really.

For the people who live here

built by the people who live here.

Money stays right here

and it's all good for the community.

What's happening, baby?

Uh...

You, um, remember I told you

about the God account?

Yeah.

Well.

You gotta be kidding me.

Uncle T.

You and me, we have always been

honest with each other.

Is there something you want to tell me?

We should talk.

So how does this usually work?

Well, it's different every time,

but you're the first friend suggestion

I actually know.

And they sent you my name when?

Right after you took off from the park.

Hey, you got a phone call right before that,

something about work

and you seemed pretty stressed.

Is everything okay?

That was a permit issue.

I mean, that's already been fixed.

But truthfully,

things have been really stressful at work.

Terrence.

Conrad. Ah, meet my nephew, Miles Finer.

Reverend Finer's boy, of course.

Your father's been a role model in our community

since I can remember.

Oh, well, thank you, man.

Yeah, your uncle here ain't too far behind.

That high-rise he's building,

that's gonna change things.

If you ever need anything,

- give me a call. - No doubt.

All right, you two enjoy your Sunday.

You as well.

Who's that?

This dude I grew up with.

Listen, I want to talk to you, though, about...

something, and I want to make sure that you

hear it from me directly.

- Hmm? - Your Auntie Lena.

She's asked me for a divorce.

Wait, I'm...

I don't understand.

You guys just celebrated 25 years together

and now all of the sudden she's asking for a divorce?

It's my fault.

Spend way too much time at the construction site

and not enough time with my wife.

Then just talk to her.

Okay, let her know that things got away from you

and that you're going to spend time with her.

I plan on doing more of that.

But I gotta get this construction complete.

No. No, you can't wait.

I know it sounds crazy.

It's selfish, I know, because it is.

But listen.

I've been working my entire life to get here.

This is my shot
