- Previously on "Bel-Air..."

- Erika?
- Philip?

- Are you still upset
about the Erika thing?

'Cause it's not a thing.
- It was a thing.

A very big thing, so please
don't play me like I'm crazy.

- Keep posting,
okay? And tag them.

Visibility for the artist,
visibility for the house.

- Well, who is this
artist? It says anonymous.

- What?

Have you talked
to Jazz recently?

He's been acting really distant.



- Finding out you dated
a top NFL draft pick

could hurt a brother's pride.

- I have no agenda.
- Good.

'Cause I have a man.
- So why isn't he here then?

- We know you been
looking for Frederick.

- Yeah.
- Lord knows we learned

the consequences of
keeping family apart.

- Know this has to
be your decision.

Not ours.

- It's so cool that both

Will and Carlton got nominated
for the Founder's Award.

- Okay, I'm focused
on AAU, and that's it.

Founder's Award is
Carlton's thing.

- D-I schools... they looking
for leadership skills too.



Don't be so quick to
count yourself out.

- I'm not afraid of
a little competition.

You should stay in the race.
- Oh, that's good,

'cause I was gonna
do that anyway.

- They're coming, they're
coming, they're coming.

- Okay, table's set.
Everything's ready.

Good morning, boys.

- Good morning.
- Hey.

Surprise!

- I hope you're hungry
for some pancakes.

- You need something.
- What's the occasion?

- Well, we just thought that
we'd do something special

that says congratulations.

- We have two Founder's
Award nominees in the house.

That's a big deal.
- Yeah.

And an even bigger deal that
you both decided to run.

- I mean, yeah, you know, this
could be a huge deal for me.

Scholarships, internships.

I mean, becoming a
multi-million-dollar CEO.

Whoa,
CEO? Slow down.

- What's funny about that?
- Oh, nothing.

It's just that you finally have
ambitions higher than the NBA.

- Oh, yeah, baby. I'm
coming for everything.

I'll beat you on the
classroom and on the court.

- I'm pretty sure I have
a higher GPA than you.

- Debatable.
- Okay, see?

That's exactly what
I was talking about.

- She's just worried about

the two of you going
up against each other.

- That's a lot of competitive
energy under one roof.

Don't act like you two
don't have history.

- Look, I understand how,
as a mother, it's your job

to obsessively worry about
everything, but we're fine.

- Yeah, it's all good, Aunt Viv.

Just some healthy
competition between cousins.

- That I'm gonna win.
- Not quite.

- ♪ Uh, I heard they
checking for me ♪

♪ No one checking on me, so
I had to go run up a check ♪

♪ I got the message homie,
ain't no flexing on me ♪

♪ My attorney gon'
call and collect ♪

♪ Blessings on
blessings for me ♪

♪ My success has only
made them envious ♪

- Ah.

Damn, man.

Why does that keep happening?

- Because, Will,

rule number one of golf is,

never take your
eyes off the ball.

And also...

you suck.

Let's see what you got,
and it better be good.

Damn.
- Yes, there it is.

- Nice shot, son.
- You know, I'm not so sure

Will is cut out for this
level of competition.

- Yeah, well,
sticking tiny balls

into holes is your
thing, Carlton.

Give me the rock and I'll
show you what I can do.

- Ah, it's a shame
a dunk contest

isn't a Founder's Award event.

- Founder's Award event.
- You know, he's right, Will.

The alumni golf tournament will
be an opportunity to impress,

and I just want to make sure

that both of you
make a good showing.

Nice one, Dad.

- And I'm sure Will
could use the help.

- And I'm sure you
could use the height.

But it's not really fair

when you have a ten-year
head start, so...

- Well, the links are

a corporate boardroom
in disguise.

It's where money
and deals are made.

Ain't that right, Geoffrey?

- Yeah. Absolutely.

- Hey, back up, man.

Uh.

- It's all right. We'll
help you get there, Will.

Just takes practice
and a lot of patience.

- Thanks, Uncle Phil.
- Course.

You know, I was thinking,

maybe later, I could
help you pull together

some of your talking points

for the "Meet the
Nominees" forum.

- Yeah, that'd be dope.

- You know, you're looking at
a Distinguished Toastmaster.

- Wait, you never told me

you were a Distinguished
Toastmaster.

I don't know what that is,

but if it's gonna help
me win, that's cool.

- Viv, hey.

Yeah, we're all right here.

All right, I'll let him know.

Love you too.

It's that time. You ready?

- Yeah. Of course.

- Are you good?

- Just need a minute.
- Yeah.

- Hey, you got this, G.

Frederick.

- Geoffrey.

- So nice to see you.

- ♪ It's like déjà vu ♪

♪ I see it all the time ♪

♪ Yeah, it's like déjà vu ♪

♪ I see it all the time ♪

♪ Yeah ♪

- I was pleased to know

that you got
adopted pretty early

out of the care system.

- Five years old.

One of the lucky ones, I guess.

- So what? You're
not a big eater?

- No, I am. Just not today.

I'm not usually
this quiet either.

It's just...

this whole this
is... just feels...

unreal.

- Yeah.

I get it.

- When I was a kid, I
thought maybe I made you up

It's easy to pretend you
never really existed.

But clearly, you do.

I know it can't be easy.

After all these years,
suddenly getting a call

and a plane ticket from
a complete stranger.

- Not a complete stranger.

I run into people that
claim they knew you.

Lots of stories.

- Yeah, well,

you can't believe
everything you hear.

- And that's why I came.

I want to find out for myself.

- And I'm prepared to
tell you everything.

- Looks good, son.
Love the photo.

I'm going
for a 2008 DNC vibe

kind of mixed with an early
Adam Clayton Powell Jr.

- Well, it's good to see
you're focused on your goals.

- Thanks, Dad.

- So tell me, how's Will
doing on his side of things?

- We're in the Colosseum, Dad.

He's my competition.
- Right.

Let's hope you're okay with

the extra push I've
been giving him.

He's not quite as
focused as you.

You know, the Founder's
Award competition

is a much bigger stretch.

I just wanted to make sure that

he's getting the
support that he needs.

- Of course.

Will needs you more than
me, so support away.

- Great. I'm glad
you understand.

- Yep.

- All right, here you go, man.

Take care.
- Thanks, brother.

- So anything going on
with you and Hilary?

- Since when are you so invested

in our relationship?

- Since all she does is
ask about your ass, boy.

- Word?
- Yeah, man.

Look, look, she just wants
you to take charge, okay?

Make your presence felt
before it's too late.

- Why would it be too late?

- No reason.

And he feels really bad that
he let the whole LaMarcus thing

get to his head, but trust
me. He wants to fix things.

- Then why didn't
he just say that?

- Well, I think he's just
trying to give you your space.

- Space? Why would
I need space?

- No. No, no, no.

Space is the last
thing she needs.

Look, man, you just need
to get out your feelings

and step your boyfriend game up.

- She really say that?

- No, no, no, no.
I'm just saying, man,

you two have been
trippin' long enough.

Y'all gotta get it
together. A'ight?

Now's the time.

- I just feel like
something like this,

it should've made us stronger.

Like we should be
solid at this point.

- Yeah, I hear ya.

- Listen, Will, it's just that
I need him to make an effort.

You know, so I don't think
I'm the only one here

who's miserable.
- I feel you.

So when you say
making an effort...

- Anything. Literally
anything. Try. Show up.

Plan a date or something.
- Okay, I get it.

So you mean like
Netflix and chill.

- Bigger.
- Dinner and a movie.

- Bigger. I'm talking about,
like, super expensive,

- Bye, Jazz.
- All right, bye.

- ♪ Bow chicka wow with it ♪

♪ Bow... bow chicka
wow with it ♪

Losing Garrison
Automotive as a client,

you know, that put us
at a huge disadvantage,

so where are we?

Are we bringing
that business back?

- It's just taking a little
longer than I anticipated.

- Okay, now, what's
that even mean?

I mean, if Garrison
doesn't return,

that's 0% chance of us
stopping this acquisition.

- I know. Tell the
partners to chill.

I just need a little more time
and they need to trust that

I'm working all the
angles. Sound good?

- No. That sounds like a
lot of bullshit actually.

- Look, we been riding
together for over 20 years.

Have I ever not delivered
when I said I would?

- No, but...
- So don't worry.

We're gonna make this
work. We'll get it done.

- Well, we better,

'cause right now, we don't
have any other options.

Yeah?

- "Banks' show offers tasty
morsels of fascinating new art,

but never enough
of a full entrée."

- What is going on? Is
Janice dragging you again?

- This woman has way
too much free time.

She keeps emailing me

negative reviews of my art show,

and you know she condemned
the anonymous piece as being

way too provocative?

- Okay, this woman
is way off base.

That piece was the
highlight of the night.

I mean, look.

It's my most popular post.

- 746,365 likes.

My piece is getting
this much attention?

- Hold up, hold up.

You're the artist behind
"Living in Silence"?

Why didn't you say anything?

People are obsessed.
I'm obsessed.

Everyone's trying to figure
out who the artist is.

- What?

I mean, I guess I'm just
trying to be respectful

of my role in the fellowship.
- Uh-uh.

Mom, you need to
ignore the noise

and tap into this new audience.

Look, don't worry. I'll
teach you everything.

Okay.

- Okay, so basically,
this is how it goes.

When you post something,

you wanna tag
whoever's important.

- Hey, Will, you almost
here? Ready to rock?

- Hey, I'm not gonna be
able to make it, Uncle Phil.

Doc just called an
extra team practice.

- I thought you wanted to work

on talking points for
the nominees event.

- Well, I do, but I can't
just miss a practice.

I still gotta show my commitment

to Doc and the team.

- Well, what about
your commitment

to the Founder's Award?

- I'm still committed.

I'm just trying
to balance it all.

But it's good. I got
it, though, all right?

Hey, I got to go, Uncle Phil.

Thanks for understanding.
- All right, nephew.

- You're late, Bel-Air.

Hustle up.
- All right.

Got here as fast as I could.

What y'all standing around for?

- Oh, the overachieving
angle. Original.

- Let me guess.

LAX bros for life meets
polos in white paradise?

- Just giving the
people what they want.

- Yeah, well, I'm
pretty sure the people

don't want another
pompous, cocky asshole.

- Then you definitely won't win.

Good luck, Banks.

- Lisa. Lisa.

Can you just...
Can you just wait?

Look, I know you
been icing me out

since I had that
fight with Carlton.

- He's my friend, and I
don't do bullies, Drew.

- That's not who I am.

And I don't want you
thinking the worst of me.

Look, I like you a
lot, and I fucked up.

- Yeah, you did.

- Maybe tomorrow we can
catch up after school.

Grab a bite. Start over.

- We'll see.
- Okay.

So where's our BSU nominee?

- Right, to be clear, I'm only
doing this as a favor to you.

- Well, I'm just
glad you came in.

- My bad. Yeah, I
didn't get this far

not being persistent. I
know how to get what I want.

Everyone, this is Philip Banks.

I would've worn a
nicer suit.

- You took time out of
your schedule to be here.

The least we could do is
give you a proper welcome.

We have partners
from our offices

in D.C...
- Thank you.

- New York, Tokyo,
London, Paris,

Sydney, Dubai,
Toronto, Frankfurt,

Hong Kong, Singapore,
and Bangladesh.

- Wow. Okay. Hello.

- We're grateful that
Erika got you in the door,

but it's our job to
make sure you come back.

- But we'd like to bring
you in as an equity partner

to control our West Coast team.

That's ten offices, over
five times as many lawyers

as your entire firm.

An army of seasoned attorneys

and top law school graduates,

all ready to go to
work for Philip Banks.

- And to make some real progress

on those social justice reforms
you wanted to implement as DA.

- Okay. What's the catch?

- Offer's already in your inbox.

Comb through it.

You won't find a catch.

- Sky's the limit here.

You can create whatever future
you envision for yourself.

We just want to be a part of it.

- And this is home, sweet home.

- You didn't mention nothing
about living in no castle.

I manage the affairs
of family operations.

Real talk? Living
here is just a perk.

Good to see you, Frederick.

How was your first night in LA?

- Yeah, I was a little
jet-lagged, but all good.

- Hi, Frederick. I'm
Hilary. Nice to meet you.

- Pleasure to meet you too.
- Okay, accent.

- Thank you for having
me. This is a lovely home.

That's all thanks to
your father Geoffrey.

I mean, because of him,

this place is like a
well-oiled machine.

- That's a fact.
We wouldn't know

what to do without
Geoffrey. He always knows

what's going on. When
I was a little girl,

he stopped me from
running away three times.

- Three?

The point is, we are just

so blessed to have Geoffrey
as a part of this family.

Which means you're
family, too, okay?

- It's nice to be
included out of choice

instead of circumstance.

That's definitely new to me.

- He's here.

- So as you know, my family was

a big part in building this
great institution, right?

So the foundation and the
legacy of this school,

they run through my blood.

- And look, I
absolutely understand.

Right now seems like a
dire time to be a student,

but my good friend, Obama, says

that we, as a generation,

were born in the
best time in history.

We're more likely
to be literate,

healthy, and free to
pursue our dreams.

I want to use this award to
make good on those dreams.

Really...
- Sorry I'm late.

Oh, man.

- Will, what are your thoughts

on the history of
the Founder's Award?

- Yeah, what are
your thoughts, Will?

Obviously.

But this is me.

The real me.

And my mom, Viola Smith...

She always raised me to
speak from the heart.

You know, it's about who you are

and what you believe in.

You know, what you'll stand for
and what you won't fall for.

You know, it's not about
how good you look in a suit.

Or on paper.

You know?

'Cause once all that
shit is stripped away,

what do you have left?

I don't know. I think...

I think that'll show you what
a true leader looks like.

- But can you contextualize that

within the five principles
of the Founder's Award?

- Uh, the five principles.

Yes. Let me figure
that out for you.

- Right. Well, as painful
as this is to watch,

I can tell you that as
the award recipient,

I look forward to visiting
the leadership summit

in Washington, D.C.,

and learning valuable
things about civic, social,

and business leadership
skills.

It's not about
looking good or uh...

I need to make sure that...

- Hey, yo! Whoa, hey!

Yo, watch your mouth, boul.

- Or what?
- Or I'ma watch it for you.

You don't get to say
"nigga." None of y'all do.

- Yo, you really gonna
cosign his bullshit?

- Fuck.

- You know, they
really rolled out

the red carpet, babe.

Another woman has my
husband this worked up?

- Baby, baby, listen.

There is only one woman
who gets me worked up,

To be wanted,

valued for what you do.

- So you seriously
considering this?

- I think I have to.
- Hmm.

I'm not really one
who likes to...

put myself out there.

I prefer to let my
art speak for me.

I mean, it's why I became an
artist in the first place,

but lately.

I've been feeling like I'm
suffocating in silence,

which is what led
me to create this.

Which, ironically, is
what it represents:

Why is it a battle

- Well, just withdrew my name.

You know, I don't
need a dumb award

to get into an Ivy.

Hell, my mom's a
trustee at Yale.

- That's the privileged spirit.

- Well, you might want to direct

some of that energy
to your cousin, bro.

- What the fuck are
you talking about?

- Who do you think
sent that video?

The one person in it

who comes out
looking like a hero.

With you and me both benched,
that award's all his.

- Bro, I did not send the video.

I cannot even believe you
would accuse me of that.

- Oh, right. So
it's just convenient

that you were dying up there

You always wanna blame
somebody when you fuck up.

That's your problem.
- Hey, what is happening?

- Hey.

You heard your mother.
Somebody better start speaking.

- Fine. This video came
out of me letting the guys

on the lacrosse
team say the N-word,

and now everyone
thinks I'm the villain.

Whatever.
- Wait. What?

- And Carlton
thinks I leaked it.

- See? I told you

all this competition was
gonna lead to a problem.

- Yes, it is a problem, because
I actually care about this,

and Will showed up
late and unprepared.

Will, you have a
problem focusing.

Dad, you said it
yourself. That's why

you're helping him so much.
- What?

So that's what you think.
- Hold up.

That is not what I said.
I was talking more about

your lack of commitment
and preparation.

- Okay, so because I don't do
things like you and Carlton,

it's a problem.
- No, but I do think

that you could be
more disciplined

when it comes to your future.

- You would say that.

He didn't even want me to
keep my name in the running.

- No, it's not true.
- Yes. Yes, it's true.

You said it was more
of Carlton's thing,

but Doc told me not
to count myself out.

- Doc?
- Yeah, Doc.

At least he believes in me.

- After everything we've
done to support you,

you can form your mouth
to even say those words?

- Hey, Phil?
- No, no, Viv.

Yeah, we'll see how much
Doc still believes in you

when I stop putting money in
his bank account every month.

- You know what?

It's cool.

I'll just take care of myself.

Always have.

Got practice.

A brother is starving.

- Hilary, I just wanna
say I'm proud of you.

You know, congrats on
the Simply Spiked deal.

I know how hard
you worked on it.

You deserve the world, and
I wanna give it to you.

- Oh, and I'm gonna take it.

Thank you, babe.
This is perfect.

- Man, I see what
coach is doing.

Spread the ball around,
get everybody involved,

but this is my squad.
Dude, I'm the point guard.

Like, put the ball in
my hand and make...

- Damn, Bel-Air.
- Oh, wow.

If he got some playing time.

- He's funny. You funny, man.

- I do what I can.
- But trust me,

I'm not gonna ride
the bench for long.

- Yeah, we'll see.
- If I was pushing this...

I'd have honeys up
in here every day.

- I heard that.
- Yeah, you know my aunt

got tired of me
taking her ride, so...

Oh, so you wanna be
chauffeured, huh?

- Hold on. You got a foot rest?

- Yeah, man. When
you back there,

you can just relax,

kick your feet up
on the ottoman,

recline, get a little massage.

- Damn. Yo, we can
watch our games in here.

- Let's drive, rook.
- Let's go, man.

- So I was thinking maybe
tomorrow, I could take you

to one of my favorite
English pubs.

It's not as good as
the ones back home,

- Mm-hmm.
- No problem.

I can drop you
back to your hotel.

Just tell me...
- No, back home.

All the stories and the history.

It's like they can't seem
to get on without you.

But I did...

for years.

- I told you my reasons.

- Frederick, please.

Come on, man. We've
waited too many years

for this to end in a bad memory.

- Well, then let's go
out on a high note, yeah?

I'm doing fine and
you're doing fine, right?

Look, I don't
hate you. I don't.

I just don't know you.

Maybe we leave it at that.

- Hey, thanks, man.
- It's all good.

I already signed my
letter of intent.

- That's what's
up, bro. Congrats.

- Thanks, bro.
- That's crazy.

- Damn good.

I'm trying to do the same thing.

- What, y'all over here
on a date or something?

- What's up, Jackie?

- Not as good as
I'm about to be.

You partying with
me tonight or what?

- Yeah, I'm just... I'm kind of

in the middle of
something right now.

- Hey, Jackie, why don't
you come sit with us?

- Yeah, come sit with us.
- Nah.

- What?

- It's all you, bro.

- Congratulations.

Your motherly
superpowers are spot on.

- What are you talking about?
- You called it.

You knew that competition
between me and Will

was gonna end badly,
and here we are.

- Oh, I can't say I enjoy
being right this time.

- When they're saying
I'm an Uncle Tom,

a sellout, and, my
personal favorite,

Yeezus reincarnated,

yeah, I think it's a wrap.

Apparently, I just can't get
away from being that kid.

- You know what I see?

That kid who is so bold

to be in any space
that he isn't welcome

and who's just trying to fit in.

The Founder's Award.

Yazmin.

All people see are my mistakes.

- That's high school,

it wasn't being recorded
on somebody's phone.

Evolving... it never stops.

I mean, I am still
on my own journey,

- Mm-hmm. Even at 32, I am
still learning new tricks.

Did you know that I have
been posting on social media?

- Wait. You?
- Mm-hmm.

Right, but what I've learned,
more than anything else,

is that, whatever
we're going through,

there is someone else
who's feeling the same way.

- Going kind of hard for a
school night, aren't you?

- Been that kind of week.

- Right. Well, look,
I'm not trippin'.

I'm just saying, you
might want to slow down.

Hey, hey, hey. Come on.

- Damn. Be careful, bitch.

- Bitch?

Funny, I didn't catch
your mama anywhere.

What did this girl
just say to me?

- Oh, you're mad?

Girl, what's up?

- What's up with it?
No, no, let's go.

- Yeah, that's cute shit.
- Just be cool, Shay.

- Relax, relax.
- Let go of me.

- Relax, Jackie.

Okay, I'm not your enemy.

And I missed you.

- I missed you too.

And I was thinking
maybe we could,

you know, go back to
the way things were.

- I'm so sorry.

Sir, do you happen
to have another card?

This one's been declined.
- That's not even possible.

I just put money in the
account this morning.

It's not declined. Can you
just try one more time?

- Do you have another
card you'd like to try?

- No, I don't have another
card I would like to try.

This is the card.

Let her just run
it one more time.

I'm sure everything's fine.
- You know what?

Actually, I got it.
- No, you don't.

- No, I do.
- I got it.

- Can you just take
this? Please. Thank you.

- Sure.

- Are you serious?
- Yes, please.

We're in a public place.

- Jackie. Jackie, come on.

Hey, one step. All
right, you got it.

- You're in trouble.
- Shh.

- God, don't let
this man kill me.

- I like your chain.

Oh.

- Come on, baby.
- I... okay.

Bye. Bye. Bye, Will.

- Hang tight for a second.
- I just wanna go to sleep.

- You will.

Shit.

- She's asleep.

I appreciate you looking out.

- Yeah, of course.

- Yeah, Jackie's strong, man,

but she got her
demons, too, you know?

- Yeah, I ain't never
seen that side of her.

- My little sister had her
when she was in high school.

Pretty much raised
Jackie myself.

I'm trying to make sure
she doesn't have to pay

for her mom's mistakes.

- Well, hey,

it's pretty dope that
you stepped up like that.

- We family. It's what we do.

You know, I would be

in a cell or

in a casket if it
wasn't for my uncle.

Just wish he would stop
trying to control my shit.

You feel me?
- Yeah, man.

He's from a whole
different world

than what we used to.

That's what I'm saying.

- So he got you out of some
kind of trouble back in Philly?

Yo, it's cool if you don't
want to talk about it.

- No.

It's cool.

I trust you.

- I got you.

Your adopted family, they
took good care of you.

- It's the only family
I've ever known.

- You grew up in a
two-bedroom flat in Brixton.

You ever wonder how
they could afford

Or those British street
gangs you tried to run with

and they turned you away.

They wanted no part of me.

- Or that time when your
dad was on disability

and your mother lost
her receptionist job.

- And the both of them was
out of work for a full year.

- But you, your siblings,

a meal was never missed.

- Geoffrey?

- He's always been
in your life...

I just couldn't
let you leave here

without knowing who
your father really is.

- Thanks again, Mr. Banks.

That's what an artistic
voice should be,

so if this is unbecoming of
the Neeman Fellowship brand,

then so am I.

- I checked my account, Hilary.

If you would've just let the
woman run the damn card...

Look, I had the money.
- Okay.

You have the money.
I have the money.

We both have the money.
- That's not the problem.

The problem is, you didn't
believe that I had the money.

Be real.
- What are you talking about?

- I bet if you were at
dinner with LaMarcus...

- Let me finish.

I just know you would've given
him the benefit of the doubt

before you pulled out
your platinum card.

- Okay, Jazz, you're
really making this

more than what it needs to be,
and you're ruining the night.

- I'm ruining the night?
- Yes.

You're ruining the night,
and you know what else?

I am so, so tired of dancing
around your insecurities.

Here we go.

The truth comes out.
Come on. Tell me.

- Okay, you want the truth?
- Yeah. I do.

- You want the truth?

What was up with
the fake-ass date?

- Fake-ass date?
- Yes.

- You wasn't saying that
when you was swallowing

that $100 lobster.
- Okay, so what?

How much money
you have or spend,

that doesn't even matter to me.

- You say that now,
Hilary, but come on.

You know damn well
you don't want to walk

red carpets with a
fucking Uber driver.

Is that what you
really think I am?

You really think
I'm that obsessed

with the superficial
shit in life.

- Look, I see how
people look at us.

And that's a you problem.

That's not me.

If Carlton stayed
in the running,

chances are, his
ass would've beat

the system like he always does.

He would've won the whole thing.

At least the video
takes him out for good.

Carlton Banks is someone
else's problem now.

- You been coming for
Carlton since the first day

we walked into the BSU meeting.
- What?

- And then he whooped your ass.

You're the one who
AirDropped the video.

- You're welcome.

- You had me and
Carlton out here beefing

when it was you the
whole damn time.

You finally getting to start.

- I could find somebody else.
- No, we good. We good.

- Let's hustle up, West
Philly. We got work to do.

We going medium speed.
Half court and back.

- Okay, well, if I'm
gonna get cancelled,

I figured I might as well
spread a little raw truth.

Is the video going
around of me fake news?

No. It's real.

Very real.

But you want to know
what else is real?

- Nice.

- Things I've done
to not stand out.

The times I chose not to
ask the tough questions

and instead just
look the other way.

The times I felt like a fraud.

The times I became
my own worst enemy

because I couldn't just
get out of my own way.

The times I made selfish choices

at the expense of others.

The times I second-guess myself

and wrestle with self-doubt.

When we should've said
"That's not okay."

It's part of the culture here.

A million little moments
never caught on camera.

And I know I'm not alone.

No.

I'm just the only one you see.
