00:00Are you sure? Well, did he ask why?
00:06All right, thanks. I'll follow up.
00:16Is the seat taken?
00:20Doesn't matter if I said it was?
00:22No. Question.
00:24Question. How long do we have to wait for you to step up your game and put the cuffs on Crazy Leslie?
00:40Martin, is that you?
00:43Of course I understand.
00:46Yeah, like I already said, it's already on my agenda.
00:50But you have to work with me on this one.
00:51No, I'm here. I'm just a little distracted.
00:57You have my word.
01:00Yeah, we'll take it up at the next town hall meeting.
01:02But we have to do a complete full vetting first.
01:07Whoa.
01:09I had no idea.
01:13Please, tell me everything.
01:15Start from the beginning.
01:21And if you think you could have one or two.
01:22I have to do a complete.
01:25Come on.
01:27Never муз charisma.
01:30And lead her on to the last two years.
01:32I had nothing to achieve, although I can't believe this, but why?
01:33I can't believe it.
01:34You will be anything to succeed lately.
01:36Let's kiss my god.
01:37Let's take it up.
01:38I want to get it up.
01:43Let's get turned off after a lie.
01:47This has been huge.
01:48Yeah, I'll try.
01:49You want to get the bek off right now.
01:50what's that look i just didn't know it would be like this this has a lot of moving parts
02:09what's surprising you know how in a musical we're supposed to suspend our disbelief and
02:15imagine that people are singing everything instead of saying it are you about to start
02:20singing uh no but i might just burst out into songs and then birds are gonna start making all my
02:27dresses do they do purses you'd really save a lot of paper costs i mean i am legit fairy tale happy
02:35and what makes it so much better is that you are so real okay well let's hear it no come on chelsea
02:45serenade me or give me a good bop or something i'm open either way no i told you i was close but i'm
02:51not there yet okay plus i got my mom's smiles not my grandmother's pipes mm fine i will let you off the
02:58hook but i feel it too chelsea i'm so glad you pulled up next to me that day would you think
03:07we're getting too greedy maybe but i just can't get enough of you i mean i'm hooked what can i say
03:18neither of us have been even remotely restrained should we be i can't lie and say that i haven't
03:23thought about that and my grandmother did bring it up the other day i knew it so people think we're
03:30moving too fast and it doesn't matter i answered her with her own quote some people have a slow burn
03:37and some are just like a lightning strike when you know you know it sounds like miss anita dupree knows
03:45a thing or two about relationships i mean she and granddad are the standard i've never seen a love
03:51like theirs so calm yet fierce impenetrable madison you are going to love her i mean the anita dupree effect
03:59is real we all bow down i thought we'd have a family meeting like back in the day well my
04:06manager is still wet and it's not like back in the day ladies we have one crack at this reunion concert
04:15and i want to make sure that it is fire like the kids say yes and you know we want that too now what's
04:22got your couture lingerie in a twist well at rehearsal yesterday something seemed off now our
04:29voices are in sync but our bodies that's another matter what do you mean we've all kept it tight
04:35oh no no no shade on our figures i know we look good but think about beyonce's tour which one any of
04:46them like her we're telling a story not just with our voices but with the staging and the movement now
04:55i've made a few calls and there is this choreographer who i know you will love innovative but anita dupree's
05:04ready to throw out the old for new and shiny all over again well hell no
05:11this is not me trying to throw away the past but some things do need to stay back there like that
05:22tired old choreography now i know we want to honor what we've done while also stepping into something
05:29fresh but our fans want us our fans appreciate calling back to the old days but they are exploring
05:37moves and music that are right now today so why wouldn't we do the same breathing new life into
05:45our old classics will make them timeless and if we twerk to our old songs is that going to bring all the
05:53kids to the yard or do you want us hanging from the ceiling like pink that's not what she's saying
05:59is it anita thank you tracy what i'm saying is you know what i think is rich you suggesting we try
06:09something fresh when we're right back where we started you bossing us around you running the show
06:17that is not what i'm doing you see you know what i see you changing everything up at the last second
06:23so you can become the star we agreed to come back as equals no one's singing backup for you anymore
06:33anita please sharon that is not you just called us in here to tell us what you decided you didn't ask us
06:42used to do the same thing with our hair with our costumes all of it well i did not sign up for a
06:50repeat of our not so greatest hits the choreography was good enough for us and it's good enough for us
06:57now and horse even spruced it up enough so it's an homage you ever thought about that we can't pretend
07:08that time hasn't passed that we haven't been changed by everything that's happened to us by all that we've
07:16done now the updated arrangements of our songs reflects that we're not teenagers singing and
07:26two-stepping about heartbreak that we've barely experienced we are grown women who have known real
07:32love and hurt and happiness and that's what needs to be reflected up on that stage
07:42what's the point if we don't have anything new to say i have something new to say
07:52how about you do this without me
07:56seriously cat are you stalking me how'd you even know i'd be here because i'm that good i knew you
08:10weren't at the station already called over there checked to see if there were any major crimes you'd
08:16be out protecting and serving on don't tell me you got a police scanner not yet but i probably should
08:23and i figured if you were out in the world tracking leslie's every move you'd say something to me
08:31maybe and if you weren't here i could at least grab some coffee so you just don't quit do you it's not
08:39in me you know there was a time when i objected to you relentlessly touching my case
08:45um it feels like you're still objecting you're saying that change no it's still annoying and
08:53inappropriate you know you love me being your unofficial partner i'm pretty sure i remember
09:02not deputizing you and despite the fact that you arguing that you are zendaya i wouldn't be
09:09comfortable having you on a ride alone it's still a strong point and i stand by it anyway what's going
09:16on with our case our yes whatever it looks like you had a point we have a match yes i knew it we've got
09:27that bitch dead to rights leslie definitely ran laura off the road can i confess something yes please
09:39there's so much i don't know about you and there's a lot that i want to try thanks but it's not that kind
09:47of confession okay yeah lay it on me with all this talk about your grandmother i'm sort of glad she
09:57wasn't at the meet madison party why i know that you're just joking when you call her a queen but
10:04she really is a big deal i'm more like a bft okay gran is the best you talk about her in superlatives
10:12because she's earned them and it's not just this huge force that i need to do priyas in the world
10:17at large but how important she is to you well i didn't say all that stuff to make you feel intimidated
10:23i know but what if she doesn't take to me chelsea what if i fail some tests i don't even know i'm
10:30participating in my family is not like yours your family does press conferences and sets up meet and
10:36greets to introduce girlfriends i'm lucky if i see my family more than once a year
10:42i feel like she's gonna be expecting more okay one you're a bfd2 doctor top of her class neurologist
10:52okay never forget that and two i'll let you in on a little secret there are actually three
11:00i need it to freeze okay there's the one outsiders think she is a celestial being on high
11:07yeah and there's the one she actually is a matriarch but most of the time she's just grand
11:15a really really fabulous grand but grand nonetheless she's the heart of us that is so sweet
11:24and sometimes you know when she's doing her grandmotherly things she'll start to hum under her
11:30breath and then you hear that voice and then you remember she is the anita the voice of a generation
11:39it's kind of trippy really a superstar musician who exudes class and keeps her family center
11:48she sounds incredible i don't know if i'm even more excited to meet her or more scared the sooner we
11:54rip the band-aid off the better and she is just going to fall in love with you and what better time
12:00than the articulets reunion show you get to see the grand and the diva okay i cannot wait

13:20minutes can you come back in a bit please thank you
13:26i'm supposed to pretend like that's normal right a total stranger wanting to take a selfie with you
13:31you having ham fans and chelsea nights and chill bells oh i like chill bells but the truth is there's
13:38a new influencer born on these socials every five seconds i don't get how you just struggle with having
13:45millions of people out there who care about your every move i'm not dismissing it i appreciate the
13:50follows and the double taps but i'm really trying to bring more to it you know chelsea
13:58there's real talent in what you do it's more than being simply so damn gorgeous
14:08you know how to make people who look at a photo of you feel something
14:12you inspire confidence look what just happened do you miss modeling even a little bit i haven't had
14:22a chance to miss it you know there's still campaigns rolling out that i shot before i quit and no one
14:28has abandoned me on socials yet but that was never your favorite aspect of the job what about the rest
14:34of you you're getting to know me really well yeah fashion is what i loved not so much the runways and
14:41the shoots but now that chelsea cat is really taking off i get to make the beautiful things and
14:47not be the beautiful thing that's a whole lot of change to process and it's all for the better
14:54i've been dreaming of designing for forever i've been doodling and sketching and keeping it all a secret
15:01in a way i've been dreaming of you i just didn't know who you were yet
15:04but seriously whatever's next in this chapter of life it may be fast but it's right
15:18how do you know it's not just timing like i showed up when you happened to be ready
15:24am i the right person or just some hot sweet coincidence well i like that you threw hot and
15:29sweet in there oh well that's just me attempting to believe the things you say about me well believe
15:34it divine timing coincidence fate call it whatever you want madison we're here and i'm gonna take full
15:43advantage of it what what's that look i'm afraid you'll get to know me better and then you'll see i'm
15:53not as exciting as you are i'm not some designer influencer supermodel princess i'm not a princess but
16:03you're a dupree and you are very sexy and brilliant and a literal lifesaver okay
16:15i was totally kidding just like how i thought that you being freaked out last night would blow over
16:20why are you being like this that came out a bit harsher than i meant it's just everything with
16:25yesterday and your brother and his blind chest me up really through you huh pop tyrell and i are well
16:33aware of stranger danger and i think because it's so niche and nerdy tyrell couldn't wrap his head around
16:39anyone creepy trolling around in his chest space but he gets that it could have been more dangerous
16:45so do i good you keep assuming that we're not paying attention but really i have this all figured
16:54out it's all your fault really new day same blame what's the offense now you and granddad introduced
17:01him to chess gave him an outlet that he fell in love with and not only is that boy good but
17:09pop he's a master let me break this down for you have you ever heard of wimby winyambama
17:18better question how have you victor wimbinyama is the center of the san antonio spurs first round
17:25draft pit and i believe he was the rookie of the year last year yeah yeah yeah sports whatever
17:31but what you may also not know is that he's a killer chess player in hella jeans
17:35oh last year when he was in new york he put up the chess bat signals on his socials for people to
17:41come play with him in the park tons of people showed up and nobody got hurt well not unless you
17:47want to count feelings i see but in this scenario is your brother wimby or the strangers in the park
17:55both things are getting better for tyrell but chess is still his window at the swamp
18:00he's one of the best players in the district for his age but he's still starved for someone that can
18:06match him someone with a high enough elo and sometimes that means going beyond your circle
18:13just like wimby
18:16honey i'm sure that wimby is a good kid but he's also a celebrity so he probably had private security
18:24hiding in plain sight on your brother's end he brought a grown man to this house when no one
18:31was home have you thought about that analogy true valid points but hey tyrell's chest they just turned
18:40out to be some nerdy harmless old guy you met him am i wrong oh pump your brakes
18:48yes but yes the helmet is the same one worn by the motorcycle rider that ran lower off the road
18:55and we know the helmet belongs to leslie that's connected almost we still don't know that she was
19:02wearing it on that motorcycle at the precise moment of the accident oh my gosh what more do we need
19:09for her murderous tale to have taken a selfie while she ran lower down who else will be on the
19:15motorcycle i don't think i'm frustrated too but it's the job it's not like tv
19:22we have to get past reasonable doubt and i still don't have enough proof that it was definitely her
19:27that did it so we just keep getting closer and closer and it's never enough one step forward two
19:34steps back you know i actually couldn't be your partner because the law is stupid what's the point if
19:43she just keeps walking away free the system is designed to protect the innocent we just have to
19:50work even harder to get the guilty
19:51and what's going on with you as many
20:08just be careful okay
20:11i'm fine the guy of him being here if he got to you he's gone so why are you so bothered because
20:16anything could happen out there samantha seeing tyrell be so cavalier
20:24we tried to make it crystal clear that while we're well known and respected in the community
20:31this world is still crazy we hear you but we are not staying hold up here at home until we're 30 okay
20:3930 is a stretch 29 is the max funny i'm leaving this house pop okay i'm gonna go to the park get
20:47kissed by the sun maybe take some cringe selfies enjoy the butterflies and the flowers and a nice
20:54ice latte like every other girl my age okay all right keep your volume down on your headphones
20:59and walk there and come right back okay and i may meet up with my new boyfriend come again
21:08he's so cute and furry furry well if you must know he's the most adorable squirrel
21:17he's even got his own account crashing photos in the park is kind of his
21:20uh well before it gets serious i want to hear his intentions gross pop well go go just get out
21:28of here before i change my mind don't wait up wait turn your location on
21:38fancy meeting you here brother-in-law what's going on with you and jacob
21:42not that it's your business but smith is here about a story he's doing what he said
21:51fine be clandestine see if i care let me know if you hear anything else don't do anything i'll have
21:59to explain later bye bye
22:06thank you for throwing cat off the scent this way i don't have to dodge your questions later
22:17what about my questions because i have an important one i'll answer whatever i can
22:23yeah i owe you you keep making time for me even though i'm sure you have your own load at the station
22:29don't mention it but by looking at you it seems like my load of problems are about to get even
22:35heavier what's going on with martin on the house perks of the job
22:49so and you're new now how's it been navigating that with your cousin cat
22:56well this is the first time i'm doing anything in my career without my mom mature and it's
23:02brand new and uncharted territory and honestly a little scary the cat's really good with the
23:08business side i mean she sees things that i just don't and she knows how to anticipate hurdles
23:15i can't imagine so many unknowns being a doctor can be so linear it's really just a matter of figuring
23:21out your specialty and allowing everything else to line up well i'm sure that cat and i will
23:25face our challenges down the road but so far change has been really really good to me with work and with you
23:38so i have a question for you do you think it'll be too much to handle me being in flux i think i can
23:47handle it in fact i think i'm the one who might burst into song now oh well i have a better idea
23:59well congressman you really do live on the edge well i wouldn't risk calling you if it wasn't
24:11serious i'll make it quick you don't think i already know what happened with our friend and his little
24:16chest move i got thought he was smooth trying to hit you where it hurt your kid but it won't happen
24:24again oh i know that's why i asked you here he just checkmated himself
24:30i know my husband but the more we find out the more i question martin's role in whatever this mess
24:40is what are you saying smitty i still think that martin is the victim here but what if i'm wrong
24:48the money plus the corrupt cop plus martin what if i'm just seeing what i want to see then you get
24:54martin to lawyer up look i told you when this first started there was no part of me that felt
25:00like martin was guilty but i operate on facts and if the facts leave me in a different direction i have
25:07to follow which means we'll have to part ways let's hope that's a bridge we don't have to cross
25:14look i get it when it's family it's complicated but it's who i am and if martin is culpable in any way
25:22i can't turn a blind eye then i wonder if i've already told you too much
25:31look jacob journalists have a code too and i respect you not being above the law when it comes
25:37to martin but i do wonder does the same apply to your father if we find out that he's involved just
25:44as deep i'm sure my father's got nothing to do with it but when it comes to justice there are no
25:50exceptions not for martin and not for my dad i think you've proven that it's best to leave the
26:00cleanup of your mess to those equipped to handle it i'd do that if my family wasn't in our friends
26:07crosshairs we need police protection 24 7. i'll pay for everyone samantha tyrell and smitty but we need
26:17them not to know that they're being tailed especially smitty he's already suspicious enough
26:25can we do that detective or do i need to go private you can be assured that your family will be protected
26:35should we check on her she'll be back when she's pulled herself together
26:38do you agree with her we all know this is not about the choreography i know we have to honor the
26:47past and i promise that we will but we can't bring all that into every step ball change we take or we
26:54will never be ready in time now would you please tell sharon i'm right
26:59we're supposed to be sisters sisters tell each other when they're slip showing
27:07and come on you know that routine is just as tired as we are
27:16i can't do that i'm sorry
27:18so you have to agree with sharon because you two are the victims and i'm the villain is that right
27:28i couldn't possibly just want this show to be a success to make us all look good after all these
27:33years it's all the same sister you still think you're the one who decides what's good
27:40in your mind you were the only one with the talent the taste
27:44that back then we were too naive and too damn caught up in the making the anita williams to
27:52even have a mind of our own but that was back then now we don't have to fall in formation anymore
27:59especially because we have a bigger stake in the success of this reunion than you do and how is that
28:05you don't need the money anita we do nothing is really on the line for you
28:19you already had it all you still do but for sharon and me this concert could give us the careers we've
28:27been chasing since we were kids don't you think i know that that's why i have put all this energy
28:33into making us stronger and sharper by walking around like you own us that is not true
28:41it's there and everything you say every suggestion you make
28:49let's do it my way because i know better and am better than you
28:55just because you have the money to pay for some fancy choreographer and new vocal arrangements it
29:04doesn't make you right anita it doesn't put you in charge we're not for sale nobody's trying to buy you
29:14i'm here to put in the work quality work because you're writing checks what you say goes oh i see
29:28so you'll take my money but not my input no okay how about i get out my checkbook right now
29:36sign off on everything and head on home and you can do the concert without me
29:51i'm beginning to think of this as our place anywhere we're together as our place
29:57oh now that was smooth you've got to teach a course wait we've been talking about me me me this whole
30:05time tell me something new about you dr montgomery i'd love to but as it turns out i'm more show than
30:12tell what do you say we go back to our other favorite place where's that your bed say less
30:27what the hell
30:31all right thanks for the intel i'm on my way back
30:36sorry about that you're just doing your job smitty i'm not going to push you to tell me something
30:41that you want to keep from me something that can incriminate martin i appreciate that but that also
30:46means this could be the end of our arrangement i'm not going to ask you to compromise your ethics
30:51although if something tells me this isn't hypothetical what just happened that call i just
30:58got makes me feel like we should stop swapping info what'd you learn martin just requested police
31:04protection through the department what police protection what is there some type of national
31:11security threat smitty i don't think he would ask local police to look out for you and the kids if
31:17it was national i also don't think the request would have come through the channel it came through
31:22don't tell me marcel malone what is martin hiding and why does he feel like my family needs protection
31:33who's painting who the villain now we're not gold diggers who came sniffing around your birkin for a
31:40payout you came to us remember i wasn't the one who brought up money sharon did wow it's as if you've
31:49completely left cabrini green behind we were there then and we're here now and we remember every damn
31:58thing and that's the problem isn't it the whole world out there they see you as this icon but here in
32:03this room we're the only people in the world who know better and you hate us for that i don't hate
32:13you i love you i've missed you then prove it show it i don't even think you know how you don't respect
32:22us not our talent not our opinions this for you is a way for you to write one of your many wrongs
32:31but we might as well be just another one of your charities you think the fact that we never made it
32:38was proof that we didn't have what you have instead of it being the result of you abandoning us i have
32:46never said that but you thought it do you know how rare chances like ours were you took that from us and ran
32:57off with it we never got another one not because we weren't good enough but because lightning doesn't
33:07usually strike twice you didn't look back until now until barbara haunted you into it if you would have
33:18done this 20 years ago you could have resurrected us but you kept us twisting in the wind all those years
33:30if you felt that way believe me that was not my intention your intentions don't matter
33:39what we feel matters what we feel what you did matters
33:48what you're doing right now
33:58i think we can all acknowledge that most of this does fall on me
34:04if i hadn't followed dante you wouldn't have followed me leaving barbara behind
34:14and if i hadn't gone solo maybe we'd all be egots right now
34:19but we'll never know and we can't turn back the clock
34:28and i hoped that i could make up for some of this
34:34and i thought maybe we could recreate that magic
34:39but maybe it's just gone so what now you're giving up
34:51we're here committed to doing the work
34:56and so now the reunion's off because you say so
35:09you look like you saw a ghost yeah ghosts of relationships past what is allison doing here
35:15wait you're allison she's here again she's such a pain she was never really my allison okay hey look
35:22we're about to head to our happy place okay don't worry about it she can't touch us you're right let's
35:28just go wow small world what are you doing here are you following me or something
